Timothy\'s body leaned slightly, and a shadow soon covered Gianna\'s body. She looked at the man in front of her in slight astonishment. Just when she thought he would do something, he suddenly reached behind his back and took out a game of chess. \"Under the tutelage of Master Magnus, you must be good at chess?\" It turned out to be chess, Gianna thought as she breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded. Timothy directly placed the chessboard on the table, and then handed the white chess pieces to Gianna. The two continued to play chess without saying a word. Gianna was very good with military tactics and arranging troops, but she was horrible at playing chess. No matter how many years she tried to play chess, she never got good at it. So no matter how many times the two played, the loser would always be Gianna, and Timothy gradually lost his interest. Gianna looked at Timothy with shame, and said, \"I forgot to tell you that Master M
Gianna returned to her palace, called Penny over, and then told her to go to the Empress Dowager\'s palace to send a message. After everything was arranged, Gianna walked toward Fengwu Palace with the maid Rozel. The spring breeze was warm today, and the sky was just right. Gianna looked even more beautiful than the flowers in the garden. The wind blew and helped carried her scent through. Veronica glanced at Gianna, and slowly walked to her side, looking at her carefully. \"The Imperial Noble Consort is not only beautiful, but also has a strange fragrance on her body. Did you seduce His Majesty with this foxy scent?\" Gianna glanced at the empty venue. There were no other concubines nor people around, it was only Veronica and her confidant. How could this be called a banquet? Gianna couldn\'t help but sneer. \"The Empress deceived me just to ask me this? If so, please forgive me for not answering your question.\" \"You have some
\"Empress, what did you do?\" the Empress Dowager asked, shouting angrily. Both Veronica and Gerald were stunned by Gianna\'s sudden poisoning. \"Empress Dowager, the Minister just arrived, I don\'t know what happened!\" Gerald quickly explained. \"Empress Dowager, this matter has nothing to do with me. It is this woman who acted alone to try and frame me and my uncle!\" Veronica said. The Empress Dowager ordered the people to help Gianna up on the ground while sending someone to ask for an imperial doctor. The palace lady at the back took the tea cup on the table and placed it on the tray and in front of the Empress Dowager. \"Empress, the incident happened in your Fengwu Palace, the tea was also from your palace, and you dare say it has nothing to do with you? Empress, you are too bold. Gianna is the princess of Xixia, His Majesty\'s Imperial Noble Consort, and the niece of the Ai family! How dare you poison her?\" Veronica\'s f
\"Your Majesty, you came right on time. The Empress poisoned Gianna and the evidence is conclusive!\" the Empress Dowager said. \"Minister, do you have something to say?\" Timothy asked in a cold tone before turning his gaze to Gerald. Gerald returned to the hall. \"Your Majesty, it is too coincidental at this time. To know if the Empress really poisoned the Princess Gianna is really tough. It is better to wait for the imperial doctor to check it as well as the time of the poisoning.\" Timothy sneered, \"Then as the Minister said, where is the imperial doctor?\" Just then, the imperial doctor came in. After a moment of diagnosis, the imperial doctor said, \"Your Majesty, the poison in the Imperial Noble Consort is the Heart Poison. This poison takes effect almost immediately, but fortunately, the treatment was timely and there was no major problem.\" The Heart Poison! The expressions of those present immediately changed.
If she wanted things to settle down, someone must confess to the crime. Would she be willing to give up the Empress\'s seat which she worked so hard to take? But if she didn\'t confess to the crime, then someone else should. Veronica closed her eyes as she realized the conundrum that she was in, the red lotus at the corner of her eye was a little faded. At the end, she shook her head, \"The Empress has never brought an imperial doctor, nor has she ever seen the Heart Poison before. But today, there was someone else besides the Empress in the palace.\" She knelt down, tears streaming down the corners of her eyes. \"Your Majesty, someone is framing the Empress. If the Empress really wanted to poison the Imperial Noble Consort, how could the Empress put the evidence of the crime in her own palace?\" She looked innocent and affectionate. With her eyes closed, Gianna could imagine her appearance at this time, because when she framed Sophia as t
Gianna originally thought that Timothy would leave immediately after solving the matter. She didn\'t expect him to leave Fengwu Palace with her in his own arms and bring her back to Baohua Palace. She was already awake at this time, but Timothy didn\'t leave so she didn\'t dare open her eyes. She continued pretending to be unconscious as she worried over Timothy being able to see right through her act. In the midst of her dilemma, she heard Timothy\'s slightly dull voice, \"Until when will you pretend to be unconscious?\" Gianna heard the words, and her body became stiff. Finally, she opened her eyes and smiled awkwardly, \"Your Majesty has good eyesight.\" \"How do you feel?\" Looking at Gianna who was pale on the bed, Timothy frowned. \"I have no grievances and grudges against Minister Gerald. I just wasn\'t expecting that he would harm me.\" \"Gerald Qin is not a fool, and Veronica is not a fool. When will I hear the t
The next morning, Timothy, who rarely slept peacefully, got up and felt refreshed. He glanced at Gianna, who was still not looking very well, and said, \"You stay in the palace and have a good rest. There will be a Lantern Festival in the city tonight. I will show you the lanterns of Dazhou.\" Gianna rubbed her sleepy eyes, puzzled for a while. Why would he take her to see the lantern? But as soon as the man was done speaking, he opened the door and left, leaving Gianna alone in the bed. \"Is he going impress you with a lantern show?\" Suddenly, there was a joking voice in the room. Gianna\'s eyebrows were furrowed as she pulled the quilt to cover her body, and then said, \"A life is not even enough for what he owes me, let alone a lantern show.\" Baron stared at Gianna closely as if wanting to see any flaws on her face. \"I\'m very pleased to hear your determination,\" Baron\'s voice softened slightly, \"but, Sophia, I d
When he arrived at the gate of the palace, Gianna saw Timothy\'s tall and straight figure standing firmly in the night. He only slightly smiled when Gianna walked in, and then took out a white silk cloth from behind and covered Gianna\'s eyes. \"Your Majesty,\" Gianna said, a bit surprised. \"Hush!\" Timothy touched her face, slowly took her hand, and said like a child, \"Wait a while, I will remove it for you when it\'s time.\" His voice was gentle that Gianna couldn\'t help but feel her heart soften. She closed her eyes obediently as the expectation in her heart was getting stronger and stronger. As the carriage was passing through the street, she felt Timothy lead her out of the carriage and guided her to another place. Although her eyes were closed, she could still feel the surroundings lighting up for her. Gianna wanted to take off the white silk, Timothy seemed to have guessed her thoughts and asked her to wait a little long
