Chapter 83 (2/2)

Su Meixian said with a sneer, ”Su Jiusi really tried his best to please the Empress Dowager. He actually made this thing into tea and gave it to the Empress Dowager. But she really liked it. No wonder the Empress Dowager liked her so much. She didn't know what she wanted to reward when she sent this can of tea.”

Su Meixian thinks that what Su Jiusi took at the banquet that day was holly leaves. It seems that empress dowager Shen likes it very much. It's obvious who this can of tea is for.

”It is.”

”Is the tea holly leaf?”

The leaves of holly taste bitter. No one in the capital drinks this tea, and there is no one in the teahouse to sell it. The eldest lady should have got it from somewhere else. ”

Qiaocui nodded, ”I've seen it from the tea house. The people in the tea house said it's Ilex latifolia. It's a kind of Kuding tea, which has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying.

After going back, Su Meixian called Qiao Cui to her and asked, ”has anyone seen that can of tea?”

When Fang saw that what he had to say was almost done, he asked someone to send Su Meixian back to her yard.

Su Meixian nodded obediently on the surface, but she didn't think so in her heart.

”Meixian, don't compete with Su Jiusi any more, and don't worry about Gu Chenrong. It will only hurt you.”

Su Meixian saw that Fang was very serious. She was afraid that Fang would really shut her in the room, so she reluctantly answered, ”mother, I wrote it down.”

In the evening, Su Jiusi was reading a book in her room when a man in black flashed in from the window, and then a knife was put on her neck from behind Su Jiusi.

Su Jiusi thinks of what Gu Chenrong said to herself during the day, and secretly scolds Gu Chenrong fiercely in her heart. She is obviously implicated by Gu Chenrong.

Although she was a little nervous, Su Jiusi didn't show any fear. She was very calm and motionless. The knife on her neck was very sharp. A little movement might cut her throat.
