Chapter 55: Searching for Clues

Qianguang said angrily: "You said that she was hiding, with the way of this seat and the senior brothers and disciples, who else can hide under our noses and not be discovered?

"But she really came in through the door, and the slave saw it with her own eyes......" Xiaomei said stubbornly, and glanced at Xiahou Yi meaningfully as she spoke.

Xiahou Yi immediately said indignantly: "I have been reading in the room and have not seen any women come in, this girl, don't you want to frame you?"

Xiaomei immediately jumped up, she was a thief herself, but the wicked person first complained and shouted: "I didn't! I really saw it!"

Qian Fan also joined the ranks of questioning, and he asked with a cold face: "You always say that you saw it, but where are the people?"

"The slave doesn't know, but did the slave really see her come in...... Woo woo...... "Xiaomei was cornered, so she used a woman's nirvana - crying.

When the old men present saw her crying, they didn't want to embarrass her anymore. Although Xiahou Yi didn't speak, he clenched the book in his hand, and the resentment on his face lingered.

was at a stalemate, and Qianhui came out to play a round and said, "Okay, okay, in this way, I'm afraid that Miss Xiaomei was dazzled for a while and saw it wrong." ”

"The slave is really ......" Xiaomei not only didn't appreciate it, but also continued to plead, and was given a warning look by Qianfan, so she hurriedly silenced her.

Qianfan is amiable and amiable, but now he has an angry face towards her, which makes Xiaomei, who is in love with him, extremely sad.

Qianguang, who was bent on "catching the traitor", snorted heavily and threw out a sentence: "In the future, this kind of thing will be reported after it is clarified!"

After he said that, he strode away, and Qianhui comforted Xiahouyi with a few words, to the effect that he should not take it to heart, and then left with him.

Qianfan didn't look at Xiaomei, he flicked his sleeves and walked out. Xiaomei felt that his whole body was exuding anger, he really stole chicken and rice this time, and did not frame Cheng Suning, but made Qianfan disgusted with her, she cursed Qiu'er in her heart, and followed behind Qianfan while sobbing.

Qian Yi was the last to leave, and Xiahou Yi had been respectfully sending them out. After the masters were all far away, Xiahou Yi alertly retreated into the room, and after he entered the room, he raised his head and shouted to the roof:

"They're all goneβ€”"

At this moment, one of the large patterns on the roof slowly rose up, and the pattern separated from the roof was actually a huge piece of flower cloth in the same style as the ceiling of the sea wall.

Su Ning, who was hiding under the flower cloth, jumped down with the cloth, and the cloth gradually returned to a pure white and flawless Tianyu robe, Su Ning put it back on her body, and the Tianyu robe finally changed back into the Taoist robe she wore at the beginning

Su Ning was covered in hot sweat, and Xiahou Yi also wiped a handful of cold sweat, and he said with palpitations: "Thanks to your treasures, otherwise, if we were caught by the master, we would really be speechless." ”

Su Ning nodded, she touched the ornamental iron on her bun, and said, "Yes...... I didn't expect this ornamental iron to hide my aura, otherwise, even if it was hidden on the roof, it would have been discovered......"

It turned out that after Su Ning heard the footsteps of Qianguang and others, she immediately recited the "Guiyuan Mantra" to Xiahou Yi, which can heal injuries and detoxify.

After Xiahou Yi regained consciousness, Qianguang and his party had already come to the door, and it was too late to leave at this time. Su Ning had nowhere to hide, and in a hurry, she took off her celestial feather cloak and let it turn into the same pattern as the ceiling, and then she flew to the roof with the air dance technique, wrapped herself in the celestial feather cloak, and stuck to the ceiling like a spider.

Fortunately, the light in the room was dim, and the ornamental iron on Su Ning's head concealed her aura, which could have escaped the eyes and ears of Qianguang.

The two walked out of the door and began to think about this incident, Xiahou Yi said solemnly: "This incident, I don't know which villain said that he was framed...... I think the maid named Xiaomei is very suspicious. ”

Su Ning also felt the same way, since the last time Qianfan gave her Xiaomei's concentric knot, Xiaomei has shown undisguised hostility towards her. And Qianguang and others were brought by Xiaomei, and she is the biggest suspect.

Su Ning thought that this incident started because of her, but it affected the innocent Xiahouyi, and she felt deeply guilty about it.

"Senior brother...... I'm sorry, I implicated you......" She bowed to Xia Houyi and apologized, and Xia Houyi hurriedly supported her.

"Senior sister, this time I was too careless and fell into the trap of the villain, don't blame yourself. ”

"No, it was I who offended that Xiaomei that caused my senior brother to suffer such an unwarranted disaster. Su Ning said sincerely.

"Senior sister, you have always been kind to others, why did you offend that maid?"

Su Ning said lightly: "That Xiaomei admires the son of Qianfan, and when she saw that I often do things for the son, she mistakenly thought that the son was interested in me......"

In fact, Qianfan is really interested in Su Ning, but Su Ning is embarrassed to admit it.

Xia Houyi sighed: "It turned out that it was for such a thing, and this maid's heart was really vicious. ”

Su Ning actually couldn't figure it out, she hadn't been to the Jade Palace for a long time, and she had less time with Qianfan, what kind of stimulation did Xiaomei have to do to her?

Moreover, this conspiracy is tightly deployed, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to implement Xiaomei alone, and there must be a helper hidden behind her.

Su Ning decided to start from the beginning, and she asked, "Senior brother, do you know how you were poisoned?"

Xiahou Yi's crazy actions were caused by poisoning. Xia Houyi didn't have a clue, he recalled: "I rushed over after dinner today, and I didn't eat abnormal food......

"Senior brother, what did you have for dinner?"

Xiahou Yi is like a few treasures: "There are steamed osmanthus fish, chicken shredded deer tendon, sweet and sour lotus root, stir-fried amaranth, and cinnamon jujube soup." ”

These foods are quite ordinary, Su Ning said: "I smelled the smell of purple flowers and mother cloves in the room, I don't know if it has anything to do with it." ”

"There was incense in the room all the time and the smell today was a bit different from the old days. Xia Houyi questioned: "It's just that if there is a problem with the incense, why are you and Master all right?"

Su Ning couldn't understand either, the two were talking and talking, they had already come to the door, Su Ning had to rush to Cuilin Yuan to practice, so he said goodbye to Xiahou Yi, and the two told each other a while, and then separated.

Su Ning walked hurriedly along the stone road back to the Liuli Palace, and when she turned a rockery, a figure hidden behind the rockery suddenly jumped out. Su Ning couldn't take precautions, and was covered by the other party.

Su Ning was shocked, feeling that she was being dragged into an embrace, she was about to struggle, but she smelled a familiar fragrance of Su Hexiang, and Su Ning was honest in an instant.

A noble and cold sentence as broken jade blew into his ears: "What are you doing?"

Su Ningxia's cheeks flew and her flesh was shocked. The other party let go of the hand covering her lips, and asked again in her small and delicate ears like white jade:

"You're here...... What to do?"

The warm breath scratched her ears with a tingle, and she was shy, and turned sideways, her face almost touching the placket of the other party's clothes.

Su Ning took a step back and gave the other party a slight salute.

"Childe ......"

Qian Yi stood with his hands in his hands, the night breeze blowing, his fairy robe fluttered, and the green silk flew, like a fairy in the world.

Su Ning saw that he was intercepting her here, and she must have been discovered in Langyu Pavilion just now. She decided to confess and be lenient, and honestly explained to him from beginning to end the flower note she received in the room, to Xiahouyi's poisoning, and finally to her hiding in smallpox.

Qian Yi stretched out her white and slender hand: "What about the letterhead?"

Su Ning presented him the flower note in his arms, Qian Yi took it in his hand, and after checking it, he accepted it. 千ε₯• says:

"Come with me. ”

Su Ning kept up with him, and the place where Qian Yi was going was actually the scene of the incident - Langyu Pavilion.

After Qian Yi and Su Ning entered the door, the two stood in front of the bookshelves in the inner row, and Qian Yi asked her, "Do you smell anything?"

Although the smell had dissipated a lot, Su Ning replied, "There is the smell of purple flowers and mother cloves." ”

Qian Yi bowed his head in satisfaction and asked, "Do you know what these smells are for?"

Su Ning thought of Xiahou Yi's behavior after being poisoned, and she faintly felt that it should be some aphrodisiac medicine, but she was embarrassed to say it in front of Qianyi.

Qian Yijing said to himself: "Purple flowers, mother cloves, and cinnamon, can be adjusted into an aphrodisiac drug 'Hehuan San', then if Xiahou Yi has used cinnamon for dinner, plus these two smells, he will be poisoned." ”

Su Ning said: "Yes, senior brother said that he ate cinnamon jujube soup at dinner. ”

This can explain why only Xia Houyi was poisoned.

Qian Yi followed the aroma and found the culprit near the corner of the wall, in the silk peony and green leaf incense burner, it was a burned acacia powder.

Now that the root of the problem was finally figured out, Su Ning muttered again: "I don't know who set the trap here......"

"Xiaomei is the most suspicious. Qianyi said: "However, she should have other helpers." ”

Su Ning said: "Senior brother said the same thing......"

Qian Yi glanced at her with strange eyes, and he asked, "Do you have any other clues besides this letter?"

Su Ning hurriedly said: "Before you came, I heard footsteps outside. ”

"Can you recognize who it is?"

Su Ning shook her head: "I only know that it is a woman, and her steps are very light, but it is not Xiaomei." ”

Qian Yi bowed his head and said with confidence: "I will find out." ”

Su Ning listened, and felt extremely relieved and down-to-earth, as if there was Qianyi by her side, even if the sky fell, there was no need to be afraid.

Su Ning still had something she didn't understand, and she asked, "Childe, how did you find me?"

Qian Yi didn't answer, but leaned towards her suddenly, Su Ning was startled. Qian Yi leaned over and sniffed at the tip of her hair, and said:

"Su Hexiang on you...... I smell ......"

Qianyi's nose is really more sensitive than that of dogs, and Su Ning has been with him for a long time, so his body is naturally stained with Su Hexiang, which Qianyi loves to use.

Su Ning blushed and watched him gradually move away. The two didn't say anything more, and returned to Cuilin Yuan one after the other.
