After being read by the tyrant, the character of the little cannon fodder completely collapsed

Chapter 71 Stupid for the sake of being stupid
"What did you say?" The Queen Mother was shocked. She stood up in horror, but she staggered due to excessive nervousness and almost fell down.

Aunt Rui came over in time to help her, and asked Ling Xi in disbelief: "You, did you really...really poisoned His Majesty?"

"When? When did you poison His Majesty?" the Queen Mother asked nervously.

"Just a few days ago?" Ling Xi looked confused: "A few days ago, His Majesty fell ill, but he didn't call the imperial doctor... Didn't the Queen Mother hear anything about it?"

The Queen Mother couldn't help but look at Aunt Rui.

Naturally, they had heard about the tyrant's illness late at night a few days ago.

I just didn't expect it to be poison.

Besides...

"Didn't you say you poisoned me? Then, why is Your Majesty okay?" Aunt Rui asked urgently.

"How do I know?" Ling Xi looked displeased and asked with a hint of condemnation: "Why didn't you tell me that eating that thing will not kill anyone?"

"Impossible, that medicine..." the Queen Mother blurted out subconsciously.

But then he realized something was wrong and quickly stopped talking.

"What's wrong with that medicine? Will it kill someone if I take it?" Ling Xi followed up and asked.

"Ling Xi, you're so presumptuous!" Aunt Rui noticed her aggressiveness and scolded her loudly.

Ling Xi no longer pressed the question, but said with a smile: "Aunt Rui is joking, how dare I be so presumptuous in front of the Queen Mother, I just don't understand. I remember that the Queen Mother said before that as long as your Majesty takes this medicine, you will be fine." How's it going?"

"You're talking nonsense!" The Queen Mother suddenly shouted: "When did the Ai family say that they would give poison to His Majesty?"

She could try her best to poison Chen Qianzhe, but she must not leave any traces. This is why she chose Ling Xi, a fool, to do the job.

Even if the Dongchuang incident happened and Ling Xi was found to have poisoned her, and Ling Xi bit her back, no one would believe that the Queen Mother would poison His Majesty.

Without proof or proof, she could easily manipulate Ling Xi and kill this idiot.

"Queen Mother, why are you like this? What you say doesn't mean what you say," Ling Xi said anxiously: "It was clearly you who said it, and you asked me to..."

"Ling Xi!" Aunt Rui suddenly roared with such force that she instantly suppressed Ling Xi's voice.

She shut her mouth angrily and said nothing in anger.

Aunt Rui continued: "Let me ask you, since you gave His Majesty the medicine, why is His Majesty safe and sound now?"

"I have told you that I don't know. Maybe there is something wrong with your medicine. Maybe the medicine has been ineffective for a long time, or maybe His Majesty is not dead... Anyway, I took the medicine, eh..."

Ling Xi suddenly jumped up, blinked her big clear eyes, and said excitedly.

"Otherwise, Queen Mother, please give me some more medicine and I will poison him again. Maybe he will die this time!"

Empress Dowager: "..."

Suddenly, I felt that the idiot in front of me was still the same as before, a fool who could be exploited!
Give you some more poison?

Do you think that poison is rotten cabbage on the street, something you can get if you want?
Besides, with Ling Xi in her current state, the Queen Mother would not dare to give her medicine even if she had it!
Who knows whether she is really stupid or pretending to be stupid. If you don't wait until you get the poison, then turn around and sell her, you will lose more than you gain.

"Okay, where's the poison? You're just talking nonsense here!" The Queen Mother waved her hand impatiently, rubbed her brows and stopped talking.

Aunt Rui understood: "Miss Ling, please!"

"Where are you going?" Ling Xi was confused.

"Go back!"

——I’ll send you out, where else do you want to go?

Ling Xi reluctantly said: "Going back now? The Queen Mother and I still have a lot to talk about!"

"let's go……"

——You want to talk to the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother doesn’t want to talk to you!

"No, I'll talk to the Queen Mother again..."

"The Queen Mother needs to rest, let's go!"

"Aunt Rui, don't pull me. I'll leave after saying a few words. Hey, Aunt Rui, be gentle and let go. You pulled my hair. It hurts, hiss..." Ling Xi kept shouting, but Rui The aunt grabbed her arm and threw her out of the Queen Mother's palace.

"Someone, take Miss Ling back!"

"No, Aunt Rui..."

"Shh!"

Aunt Rui gave Ling Xi a vicious look, ignored her, and turned back.

Ling Xi stood at the door aggrievedly: "Aunt Rui, I haven't finished speaking yet..."

"boom!"

Aunt Rui closed the palace door heavily.

Outside the door, Ling Xi muttered something and turned to leave.

She frowned and looked at her back thoughtfully.

"What do you think?" The Queen Mother walked slowly behind her.

"What does the Queen Mother mean?"

"Is this Ling Xi still worth using?"

"...This?" Aunt Rui frowned and was silent for a moment before shaking her head: "I don't know what's going on. I feel like she was really stupid before, but now she's pretending to be stupid!"

The Queen Mother gave her a meaningful look: "Do you think so too?"

"In the past, Ling Xi's movements were not like those of a normal person. Now, although she sometimes speaks in a tactless way, she always feels that she is mostly acting..."

"It's as if they were deliberately shown to us," the Queen Mother took over her words: "Deliberately stupid for the sake of being stupid!"

"Yes," Aunt Rui nodded hurriedly: "Sometimes she knows how to measure her words, but sometimes...it's like her head is squeezed by a door, and she can't stop the horse racing all over her head. Stop, I can’t control it!”

"...Then tell me," the Queen Mother thought of something, took a breath, and asked, "Does she look like she's crazy?"

Aunt Rui's facial features were about to twist together: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for talking too much... Sometimes I feel that her brain is so fast that we can't catch up, but that definitely doesn't mean she is crazy!"

After hearing this, the Queen Mother was very disappointed. She stood for a while and shook her head.

"So, this chess piece will never be used?"

"Empress, it's better to abandon her! A useless abandoned son will be useless when used."

"Well, that's the truth, but it's a pity..." The Queen Mother sighed again: "It has been planned for several years, and it is about to be used, but in the end it was abandoned."

"It's a pity, my dear, the chess piece you laid out back then was not just Ling Xi. This one is no longer useful, so just change it!"

"Well, change it!"

"..."

-

into the night.

Eunuch An ordered the banquet to be delivered to Suiyang Palace, handed it over to Ling Xi, and then left with the others.

Ling Xi brought the food and wine to the terrace.

"You guys chat while drinking. If you feel hungry, just tell me and I'll cook you some noodles."

Zang Yuhua stood up politely and nodded: "Thank you!"

Chen Qianzhe sat crookedly on the mat, picked up the hairpin and scratched it on the sand table.

"The Sim River runs through our two countries and serves as an irrigation source. Now, due to the fierce fighting between the two sides, the river water flows backward. There is no water during droughts, and there are floods during heavy rains. It is not good for either of us..."

They were talking about the ten-year truce, but Ling Xi couldn't get in the conversation and sat aside to prepare ingredients for cooking noodles.
