Chapter 11 — A Woman Who Can't Change
What time the carriage left the city, what time it returned to the palace, and what small road it took were all recorded in advance. At the end of the secretary's name was Mrs. Bui's nickname. As soon as Mrs. Ninh read the first letter, her eyes darkened. Mrs. A also closed her eyes. She finally knew that she was not accidentally lost by fate. It's being forced to take away from your loved ones. Old Lady Bui suddenly stopped struggling. She raised her head, a strangely calm expression on her face.
“I did it.”
“So what?”
“The Ninh family has power and influence, losing a daughter would cause chaos in the whole city.”
“My family is not going to survive, who cares about us?”
She suddenly looked at A Nuong.
“I raised you for twenty-one years.”
“Your life should be returned to me.”
“Your daughter must also pay me.”
The words had not yet finished when suddenly the sound of a newborn baby crying was heard outside. The nanny hugged Lieu Nhuoc Vi and rushed in, her face pale.
“Master.”
“Miss Lieu family is not okay.”
“Her lips turned black, as if poisoned.”

Lieu Nhuoc Vi's cry was high-pitched and trembling. Her small face was purple, her lips were dark black. The nanny was so scared that she knelt on the ground, her arms shaking so much that she could barely hold her. The doctor immediately stepped forward to pick up the child. Lieu Thua An struggled to crawl forward.
“Nhuoc Vi!”
“My daughter!”
The guard held him tightly. Old lady Bui also struggled like crazy.
“Let me go.”
“Let me look at her.”
A lady lies on the bed, her face is even whiter than Lieu Nhuoc Vi. But she still had difficulty opening her mouth.
“Save her.”
Everyone in the room was stunned. Even Mrs. Bui was stunned. Mrs. A looked at the royal doctor, her voice was weak as if the wind blew and it would disappear.
“Children are innocent.”
“Save lives first.”
Old Lady Ninh's eyes heated up and immediately said:
"In the medicine box Ninh Gia brought, there is an antidote pill."
“Quickly take it out.”
The royal physician received the medicine and pried open Lieu Nhuoc Vi's mouth to give him a drink. Lieu Nhuoc Vi swallowed very hard, a weak wheezing sound emitted from her throat. I was carried by another nanny, looking at the small face that was overlapping the memories of my previous life. In my previous life, Lieu Nhuoc Vi hated me, humiliated me, and took everything from me. But in front of her, she was just a child being carried back and forth by adults. She still doesn't understand what the Thien Kim Hau Palace is. I don't know how much blood the adults let their hands get stained because of her wealth. The royal doctor opened her diaper and his face suddenly changed.
“The poison is in the diaper.”
Everyone's eyes immediately focused on the diaper embroidered with gold thread. That's something that's supposed to wrap around people. At the corner of the cloud pattern oozes a layer of extremely pale dark blue. If you don't look closely, it just looks like a dirty blood stain. The royal doctor used a silver needle to poke a little, the tip of the needle quickly darkened. The coldness in the room became heavier. Tham Nghien Chu looked at old lady Bui.
“Who changed this diaper?”
Old Lady Bui's lips trembled.
“Not me.”
“I didn't know there was poison inside.”
Lieu Thua An raised her head, her eyes filled with blood.
“Mother.”
“The speaker only changed his identity.”
"If you don't speak, Nhuoc Vi will be poisoned to death."
Being shouted at by him like that, Mrs. Bui felt like she had just been slapped.
“I don't have it.”
"How can I harm Nhuoc Vi?"
Lieu Thua An looked at her, his eyes gradually changed.
“So who is poison used for?”
That sentence As soon as it ended, the delivery room was so quiet that you could clearly hear the crackling sound of the candle. I suddenly understood. That poison was supposed to be wrapped around people's bodies. They wanted the baby in the diaper embroidered with gold thread to slowly die. By morning, the Marquis only knew that the female body was weak and had died prematurely. As for me, wrapped in rough cloth, I will be taken out of the palace, thrown into a well or stuffed into a small coffin. In their previous lives, they didn't need to use this step because the exchange was so convenient. When A Nuong woke up in this life, they immediately prepared one retreat after another. A Nuong closed her eyes, a tear slid down the corner of her eye. It's not that she cried because of Lieu Nhuoc Vi. But because I was almost poisoned to death. Tham Nghien Chu hugged me, his hand covering my back. His knuckles were cold, but steady as iron. The female official ordered the diaper embroidered with gold thread to be sealed in a wooden box. The doctor again took out a small packet of powder from the lining. There are no words on the outside of the paper package. But the inside is printed with an extremely light dahlia pattern. As soon as Mrs. Ninh looked, her face immediately sank.
“It's a dahlia again.”
Manh Thuy quickly asked:
“How did the old lady realize?”
Old lady Ninh did not immediately respond. She looked at the female official. The female official's face also changed.
“Previously, there was an internal department in the palace in charge of spices, and the sealing paper used was a sunken dahlia pattern.”
“Ten years ago that internal affairs department was abolished, all old things should have been burned.”
Tham Nghien Chu said coldly:
“Should have been burned, but appeared on the toxic package.”
The female official nodded.
“This is not something normal people can get.”
Hearing the words "in the palace", old lady Bui suddenly bowed her head. But her shoulders are shaking. I looked at that reaction and my heart became heavier and heavier. The fake insider said before he died, the person who really wants my life is waiting in the palace. It turns out that those words were not meant to scare people. Lieu Nhuoc Vi suddenly convulsed. The doctor quickly held her arms and legs.
“The poison has not yet penetrated deeply, it can still be saved.”
“But if we delay even a moment, I'm afraid even the fairies won't be able to save us.”
Hearing that he could still be saved, Lieu Thua An seemed to grasp the last hope. He suddenly knelt and turned towards Mrs. A.
“Sister.”
“Please save Nhuoc Vi.”
“I told Ninh family to take out all the medicine to save him.”
The lady opened her eyes and looked at the man who had just killed his wife and wanted to kill me.
“The medicine will be given.”
“Debt books will also be counted.”
Lieu Thua An's face turned gray. The doctor gave Lieu Nhuoc Vi another half cup of medicine to drink, and the black color on her lips gradually subsided. But at that moment, someone outside hurriedly walked in.
“Master.”
“Before he died, driver Tay Son said one sentence.”
“He said that in the past, when the Ta family robbed the Ninh family girl, there was a distant palace waiting at the foot of the mountain.”
