Chapter 171: Murder with a Knife (1)
Two days passed peacefully, but this calm was only a superficial calm, and only for Chi Xiaoman.
Compared with the calm of Chi Xiaoman Fengyi Palace, the dark tide here in Cihui Palace is turbulent. On the bright side, Zuo Xiyao and Hou Yuanxiu were polite when they met, but the two had already regarded each other as competitors in their hearts.
Hou Yuanxiu seemed to be very busy, after asking the Queen Mother for peace in the morning, she asked the Queen Mother to leave the palace, Zuo Xiyao saw it in her eyes, and muttered in her heart: When you leave the palace, you will leave the palace, and you come back every day with a thick face, what are you doing......
As a competitor, Hou Yuanxiu's actions naturally aroused Zuo Xiyao's curiosity as if he was scratching his heart. When she came to the palace, she naturally took her maidservants with her, but the maidservants, like her, could not enter and leave the palace at will.
On this day, when Zuo Xiyao finally left the palace again when Hou Yuanxiu left the palace again, she also asked the Queen Mother to let her personal maid go back to General Zuo's mansion.
Of course, it is fake to go back to General Zuo's Mansion, and it is true to let the maid follow Hou Yuanxiu.
She believes that her maid will not go wrong, and she will definitely not be discovered if she secretly follows Hou Yuanxiu, because this maid is equipped with martial arts.
And sure enough, the maid lived up to her expectations and quietly followed all the way, until Hou Yuanxiu also returned to the palace, and the maid immediately hurried back to Zuo Xiyao's side.
"What is she going to do when she leaves the palace?" Inside the room, Zuo Xiyao asked impatiently.
"Miss, she went to see someone outside the city, and the man seemed to have given her something, and the distance was a little far away, and the slave maid didn't see it clearly. The maidservant replied coldly.
"Outside the city?" Zuo Xiyao frowned, as if he couldn't understand, and then asked, "Can you see what kind of person she saw?"
"A middle-aged man, carrying a medicine box, looks like a traveling doctor. β
Why is she okay to find a traveling doctor?
The question in Zuo Xiyao's heart naturally can't be answered at the moment, and he can't ask Hou Yuanxiu directly, so he can only bury it in his heart for the time being.
However, this made her pay more attention to Hou Yuanxiu's movements, hoping to catch the other party's tail and trample the other party under her feet in one fell swoop.
And Hou Yuanxiu, as soon as she returned to the palace, she was like a nobody, and she didn't see any special movements.
Of course, she also brought her personal maid into the palace, she was calm, but the maid Dongmei couldn't hold back, she held back for a while, and saw that her young lady didn't look like she was going to Zuo Xiyao to settle accounts, and finally said: "Miss, why aren't you angry at all? Zuo Xiyao's slut dares to let people follow you!"
This maid Dongmei is Hou Yuanxiu's henchman, and she knows what the doctor gave to Hou Yuanxiu, and it would be great if Zuo Xiyao knew about that thing.
"I'm angry. Hou Yuanxiu glanced at Dongmei with a smile.
"Missβ" Dongmei said in a long voice, knowing that Miss must be laughing at herself for being stupid again, but why wasn't Miss angry or anxious at all?
"Don't be so nervous, she doesn't know who we found her, and she doesn't know what I'm holding. Hou Yuanxiu took a leisurely sip of tea and said.
"But once we did that, wouldn't it be easy for her to guess that we did it?" Dongmei was still scared.
Hou Yuanxiu said slowly: "After the matter is completed, she guesses and she guesses, but she can't bear me." One, she didn't have proof, and second, she didn't do it, she did it, understand?"
It's all said and done, Dongmei is not really stupid, so she naturally understands.
It's still my own lady!(To be continued......)
