After being reborn, I stole the female lead's cheat ability and raised the empress.

Chapter 11 is about her!

The maids knelt neatly on the ground, and as soon as they saw her, they pulled out packets of poison from their bosoms.

"Your Highness, please accept our bow!" one of the head maids called out loudly. Then everyone bowed deeply to her.

The maid continued, "This is poison that the Second Miss gave us. She wants us to put it in the Miss's food tonight."

"We were blinded by the Second Miss before, but now that we see her true colors, we sincerely repent and vow to follow the Eldest Miss to the death!" After saying this, they presented the poison. Their gazes were fixed intently on the gentle and kind Eldest Miss standing in front of them.

Wow! You've practically confessed yourself!

Granny Cui quickly relayed Wen Wan's instructions to A-Li. Many maids also reported Wen Wan's other schemes, but A-Li disregarded them. Granny Cui tried to persuade her further, but A-Li said:

"I am invincible! She can do whatever she wants!"

Those six simple words were so arrogant that everyone present was stunned. Granny Cui finally said nothing more; young people are always a bit arrogant, she'd just have to be careful.

Ali and Granny Cui rode in the same carriage, and with two maids and a dozen guards, they set off.

After yesterday's exchange, Wen Wan knew her own limitations.

Ali thought that her adopted sister only knew simple tricks like poisoning, but she forgot that the Ali in the book was completely outmaneuvered by her sister.

Not long after they set off, Ali suddenly had a bad feeling. She immediately lifted the curtain and looked outside.

They were crossing the edge of a forest, with lush, dense woods on one side and a bottomless, chilling cliff on the other. Suddenly, the horses, like startled hares, went berserk, bolting in all directions. The coachman seemed to have vanished into thin air; no matter how they called out, there was no response, and he had disappeared without a trace. The servants were left far behind, like leaves scattered by a storm.

Ali was immediately jolted back into the carriage, which continued to shake, leaving Ali and Granny Cui feeling dizzy and disoriented.

Damn it! We managed to stop the imported poison, but we couldn't stop the maddened wild horse.

Without a doubt, this was Wenwan's arrangement. But right now, the priority is to control the out-of-control carriage.

Danger!

Ah Li finally managed to climb to the sedan chair door, stumbling and struggling. Just as she lifted the curtain, the horse suddenly veered off course and galloped straight towards the cliff. Ah Li was thrown back into the carriage by the sudden turn, the pain almost bringing tears to her eyes. A curse escaped her lips. All her hard work to reach the door had been for naught.

The situation was critical, and ignoring the pain, she immediately climbed to the driver's seat and pulled the carriage with all her might, trying to control the runaway horses. But the horses continued to gallop rapidly towards the cliff.

Fifty meters, forty meters! Thirty meters! Twenty meters!

The rope left bloody marks on Ali's hands, and finally, about ten meters from the cliff, the horse slowed down.

Phew, what a relief. Ali was just about to turn around and tell Granny Cui to get out of the carriage...

An unexpected situation has arisen!

The horse went berserk again, galloping towards the cliff at an even faster speed than before.

Danger! Danger! Danger!

There was no time to rein in the horse in such a short distance; they had no choice but to abandon the carriage. Seeing Granny Cui inside, Ali pushed her off, and then it was too late for her to jump back in!

The carriage is suspended in mid-air!

Then it plummeted downwards at breakneck speed!

"No!..." Granny Cui cried out in anguish, reaching out to grab the carriage.

But she could only watch helplessly as the carriage, like a wild horse, tumbled straight toward the cliff. Inside the carriage, Ali had only managed to swallow a heart-protecting pill; she kept her eyes tightly shut, not daring to open them to witness the horrific scene before her.

Time seemed to freeze, and Ali's heart leaped into her throat. Fortunately, the cliff wasn't as deep as she had imagined, and even more fortunately, below it lay a lush, verdant forest. Just as the carriage plummeted downwards, it seemed as if an invisible hand was secretly helping it, and it landed precisely on a thick, sturdy tree branch with a loud creak.

Ali carefully looked around. Fortunately, she was stuck on a tree branch only a few meters above the ground and was safe for the time being.

above.

Granny Cui watched helplessly as the carriage plunged off the cliff, filled with self-reproach. If it weren't for her young mistress trying to save her, she wouldn't have fallen.

Such a good master shouldn't have died so young.

She said fiercely, "Find her! Go down and find her right now! The young lady will be safe and sound!" After saying that, she hurriedly searched for a way down the mountain, stumbling and staggering.

bottom of the cliff.

"Squeak, squeak—"

Ah Li wanted to cry but had no tears.

Damn it! The carriage was almost falling apart after the ordeal. Ali didn't dare to move, but the creaking sound of the wood breaking kept urging her to make a decision quickly.

Ali had just redeemed a Heart Protection Pill from the system, and its effects hadn't worn off yet. Looking down, she saw that the distance was only a few meters. Jumping down wouldn't kill her; at most, she'd get a little injured.

Jump! The carriage will fall apart sooner or later, and when you fall, the splinters will get stuck in your flesh, which will be even more painful.

Having made up her mind, Ali covered her head and jumped down.

When Ali jumped down, she instinctively closed her eyes, afraid to look, but suddenly she fell into a gentle and somewhat familiar embrace. She hurriedly opened her eyes, only to be shocked.

The man in front of her was no more than fourteen or fifteen years old. He wore a moon-white robe, and his elegant demeanor, exquisite patterns, and overall attire all indicated that he was of noble status.

When Ali's gaze fell upon that handsome and familiar face, she couldn't help but widen her eyes in astonishment, and exclaimed in surprise:

"It's him?!!"

The voice was filled with disbelief.

At the same time, the same intense shock was also reflected in the man's eyes:

"is her!"

It was as if time had frozen at that moment.

They stared at each other, lost in thought.

However, in just a moment, they quickly came to their senses.

"How could that be! It couldn't be him (or her)..."

Although they were deeply shocked, they tried their best to conceal their true emotional turmoil.

Just then, caught off guard and momentarily stunned, the two stumbled and fell to the ground with a cry of "Ouch!" Fortunately, the ground was covered with soft grass, so they were not seriously injured.

However, this pose is rather too ambiguous.

At this moment, Ali was lying on top of the man, creating an awkward situation of one on top of the other.

Their cheeks instantly turned bright red, like ripe apples.

Ah Li panicked and tried to stand up quickly, but because she moved too hastily and exerted too much force, she accidentally aggravated her wounds. A sharp pain struck her, causing her to involuntarily fall forward again.

This time, her lips landed squarely on the man's throat.

Ali was completely stunned.

The stranger was also stunned and at a loss, staring blankly at Ali who was so close to him.

For a moment, the surrounding air seemed to stop flowing, leaving only the sound of two violently beating hearts and their heavy breathing intertwined.

His male instincts made him swallow hard.
