Chapter 52: Le Xian miscalculated

Jun Xu also praised: "Playing chess is the heart of playing, the four girls are weak in the boudoir, and they can break their wrists and give up most of the chess pieces to find another way, this vision, this decisiveness, Jun Xu is not enough, just see if the six princes can be the enemy?"

The sixth prince Jun Xiao has always been clumsy, where is he willing to be in such a limelight, and said with a faint smile: "The son of the world can't do it, let alone me."

Saying that, Le Yu had already bowed and said with a smile: "The prince has conceded, the hour is almost up, please go back to the table.

Jun Xu saw that her words were smooth and free, and she was playful and peaceful, and she had a good impression in her heart, and laughed: "Exactly, this drinking is the ability that we should compete with.

Several people laughed, politely said goodbye to the young ladies, and went to the men's table shoulder to shoulder, only Cheng Lingye walked on the edge of several people with his hands behind his back, it seemed that he did not fit in, and the golden sunlight sprinkled on the tall and handsome figure, blurred a little cold and alienated.

Le Yu had no time to take a closer look, and accompanied Le Xian to beckon An Susu and the others to go back, and halfway through, Jin Shu came back with a palace silk fan with a snow-white embroidered beauty fluttering butterflies, and gave a blessing to a few people with a smile, "I've seen a few young ladies." An Susu stopped and said strangely: "Jinshu, weren't you just following Le Xian?"

Jin Shu Yingying smiled and handed the fan in her hand to Le Xian, "My girl just dropped the fan, and the slave went to get it back for the girl."

As he spoke, he nodded to Le Xian imperceptibly.Le Xian took the fan with a smile, her heart was slightly relieved, and she looked at Le Yu's gaze but couldn't hide her doubts.

After waiting for the table, the last main dish of raw cut puffer fish slices came out, and the audience was immediately full of praise and jealous eyes: the thin paper-thin fish fillets were crystal clear like cicada wings, and they were arranged in the shape of lotus flowers layer by layer, just like the drunken hibiscus blooming in the lake, and it looked particularly refreshing in the hot summer.

A pair of chopsticks clamped to this delicious delicacy, not long after a sigh of admiration, Le Xian couldn't believe it, but also a chopsticks, delicious and delicate, it is indeed made of fresh pufferfish.

After the meal, the old lady and the Gu family beckoned the noble lady to enter the garden to listen to the play, today invited the capital's premier opera troupe Ting Lanban, most of the ladies in the house are good, so most of them went to listen to this rare play.

Le Xian hurriedly walked through most of the courtyard of the inner house with the brocade book, until she arrived at a deserted small courtyard in the most remote and desolate west corner, as soon as she entered the door, Qingmo was already guarding, and when she saw Le Xian coming in, she knelt down and said: "The slave should die, the girl spares her life."

Le Xianli ignored her, ignoring her usual demeanor, walking with the wind, staggering towards a huge blue and white porcelain jar in the inner room, rippling water, dozens of puffer fish turned their white bellies together, gently rippling with the ripples.

Le Xian's feet were soft, grabbed the edge of the cylinder, and said sharply: "Didn't you say it's okay?" Qingmo's face was so pale with fright that he kowtowed again and again: "Just now Jinshu came to see, he is still alive.

Le Xian is not a stupid person, her mind is in a hurry, but a few flashes of thought have already understood everything.Xiao Leyu found the puffer fish from somewhere, she knew that she must be prepared to have a back move, so she has been paying attention to herself secretly, and she didn't worry about sending Jinshu to check, and she happened to fall for her trick and pointed out the place to the other party.

Le Xian hated so much that she almost vomited blood, she spent nearly three thousand taels to buy these fish, this number is not a decimal number for Le Xian, if she can bring down the Gu family and let her never turn over, but now it has turned into a tank of dead fish, and it was spent in vain.

Le Xian hated and was furious, and her white teeth clucked, "Xiao Leyu, you are so ruthless!"

Sending off the last guest, the Xiao family gathered in the Hening Hall, the old lady's face sank like water, a pair of old eyes were shining, staring at the daughter-in-law of Shunzhu kneeling below.

Shunzhu's daughter-in-law's body was like sifting chaff, shaking non-stop, her face was obviously pale as if she was dead, but she still stubbornly closed her mouth and didn't speak.Chopardway sat on the right head, glanced at Shunzhu's daughter-in-law scrutinically, and then ignored it.

The old lady was silent for a long time before she said, "Who asked you to poison the puffer fish?" She is really afraid, if someone has the evil intention to order Shunzhu's daughter-in-law to go down to other food, who can detect it?

Thinking of this, the old lady didn't dare to think about it anymore, she closed her eyes fiercely, and when she opened it again, she was already indifferent: "If you don't say it, I can guess that your aunt is the head of the second lady's yard, right?"

Shunzhu's daughter-in-law shook her body slightly, but she still didn't speak, and the old lady laughed angrily, "It's because I see that my Xiao family has mercy on people, and I have never been tortured, so the slaves are going to turn the sky upside down.

Shunzhu's daughter-in-law opened her eyes widen suddenly, her face showed horror for the first time, she gasped and kowtowed repeatedly: "The old lady spared her life, spared my daughter, she is innocent.

The old lady sneered, chilling to the bone: "With this little bone, you dare to do such a thing, let's say it, think about your daughter before you say it."

Shunzhu's daughter-in-law finally couldn't help crying, tears gushing down her thin cheeks: "Yes, it was the slave and maid aunt who ordered me to poison the puffer fish.

The old lady slapped the hard rosewood table heavily: "Bring that old slave in." After a while, Mrs. Zhang in Zhou's courtyard was dragged in, and the old woman knew that the matter had failed, so she trembled with fright, and before she could be pressed, she had already wailed and confessed: "The old slave was recruited, the old lady spared her life, it was the second lady who ordered the old slave to find the old slave's nephew and daughter-in-law, Shunzhu's daughter-in-law, who poisoned the puffer fish, intending to harm the eldest lady who broke her trust and was rejected by the old lady.

The old lady was so angry, it was the Gu family, and her body trembled slightly, she couldn't imagine that the Zhou family was so ruthless. There is no doubt that slapping the old lady in the face is a resentment against the old lady.

Since it was a matter of the Zhou family, Chopin Wei was not easy to manage, so he found an excuse to get up and go to the outer courtyard and handed it over to the old lady to deal with. The old lady's face was very gloomy, and she said slowly: "Go and invite the second lady to come." He also said to everyone in the house: "The ugliness of the family should not be publicized, and whoever dares to say anything about today's affairs will not be spared."

Zhou's illness has improved a few days, and he has been able to get up and get out of bed, and he will hear the old lady calling, and he thought that today's banquet Gu's was not doing well, and he still had to hand over the family affairs to himself, but he was happy for a while, dressed up in a fancy way, and held Le Rao's hand all the way over.
