Chapter Twenty-Four: The Past and the Past of Marriage
Conjecture is still conjecture, and all the reasons cannot be said before there is actual evidence, Lin Qingge waited under pressure for the doctor to check all the incense.
"The eldest lady guessed well, the smell of this incense is extremely strong, although the smell is calm, once you smell too much, the poison will gather in the whole body, gradually erode the body, and finally there will be an irreversible effect, but it is not easy for people to detect what is wrong. ”
Lin Qingge had guessed some situations before, and now he was not very surprised to hear it, but he couldn't figure out who did it.
"Father, who gave you this incense, and have you seen anyone today?"
My father has a good temper and is in a high position, and he has offended many people, and if my father himself can't tell who did this, he can only investigate slowly.
After thinking for a long time, my father spoke: "Today, after going to court, I was left by the emperor, and then I was stopped by Shen Wu at the gate of the palace to argue a few words about the border pass, as for this incense, it smelled good when I passed by a newly opened spice shop on the street, so I asked the housekeeper to buy some and take it home." ”
While the two were talking, the doctor had already checked the incense in each yard, indicating that the incense in each yard was indeed the same.
"It's really unreasonable, who is it, not only to attack me, but also to my entire house, the heart is really vicious, come, take people to arrest all the people in the spice shop, I want to interrogate overnight. ”
Some things can't be found out in a while, but her father is angry, and Lin Qingge doesn't know how to persuade her, she has a faint feeling that there is a very thin thread that implicates everything, but now she can't grasp it.
"Father, we can't be in a hurry about this matter, if we startle the snake and cause the emperor's suspicion, we will be very passive, it is better for the father to hand over this matter to the daughter, and the daughter will definitely investigate this matter clearly. "Things can't be big, Lin Qingge can only come forward to stop everything.
She had just fallen out with Xiao Tingyi, and in the eyes of outsiders, it was absolutely impossible for the prime minister to support Xiao Tingyi, and at this juncture where she was stared at at any time, Lin Qingge didn't want anything to disturb her plans.
After coming out of his father's yard, he was called by the Xu family, and Lin Qingge took a deep breath.
Mother Xu probably heard about these things, and was very worried about her father's situation, so she had already sent someone to wait at the gate of her father's yard, as long as Lin Qingge came out, she would come over. "How's it going? What's going on?
The mother has always been this character, and she only focuses on her husband and children, only because of her identity, and she has suffered too many grievances.
"Mother, please rest assured, as long as I am here, there will not be too many things, these days my mother has to help prepare for Lin Yinyu's marriage, I am already very tired, don't bother here, just take care of my younger brother." ”
It's not that Lin Qingge doesn't want to tell his mother about it, it's just that when he came out, his father told him not to tell Xu about it, Lin Qingge was in a dilemma, but he was still on his father's side in his heart.
Now everyone is focusing on Lin Qingge and Xiao Tingyi, that is, Lin Yinyu's marriage to the crown prince Xiao Chu. The Prime Minister's Mansion began to put up lights and open the door to welcome guests the day before the wedding, which made enough face for Lin Yinyu.
In Wanzhu Garden, Aunt Liu was clamoring to see Lin Qingge, and the maid servant was afraid that something out of the ordinary would happen to her, so she handed Yun Qing a message.
Lin Qingge was changing her clothes, and in recent days, she had been exhausted from investigating the incense, and she could only use some fat powder to cover the tiredness on her face.
"What, does she still want to attend Lin Yinyu's wedding banquet as a concubine? I want to see what tricks she can play today, Yun Qing, after today, her grounding will be lifted, there are still many things that she needs to do. ”
Lin Qingge didn't know how much Aunt Liu was involved in, and she could probably guess that Aunt Liu was a very important participant, and maybe she could use her to lure the people behind her.
Yun Qing, who was confused about Lin Qingge's approach, couldn't guess her thoughts at all, but she was very convinced of Lin Qingge.
Wan Zhuyuan was the place that Lin Qingge hated the most when she was a child, looking at the scene that had not changed at all in her mind, painful memories poured into her mind.
At that time, although Lin Qingge was the daughter of the mansion, her mother was not favored, and Aunt Liu was very pleasing to her father after entering the house, and with Lin Yinyu on the side, no one in the whole house paid attention to her, but Xiao Tao, who grew up together, never abandoned her.
It was a rainy day, Lin Yinyu tricked her and Xiao Tao into Wanzhu Garden, coaxed her to bury her alive in Wanzhu Garden, fortunately Xiao Tao reminded her to find a way to escape, otherwise there would be no her now, but that night, she never saw Xiao Tao again, and the next day she found Xiao Tao who was drowned in that pit.
At that time, he said that Xiao Tao fell into the pit by himself, because the heavy rain accumulated too much rain, and he was drowned before being rescued in time, everyone thought so and accepted this result, only Lin Qingge, to this day I can't forget Xiao Tao's eyes that can't be closed, she is only an eight-year-old child.
Until now, when he dreamed back at midnight, Lin Qingge was still awakened by those eyes. Now, she is even more convinced that Xiao Tao's death has a lot to do with Lin Yinyu.
She also thought about investigating this matter, but now that things are piling up one by one, she has no way to put her mind here.
"I don't know if Aunt Liu has anything to discuss with me, why don't you go directly to my father. Knowing that the housekeeping of the entire family is now in her hands, Lin Qingge deliberately asked like this.
No one opened the door, standing in the courtyard through the door, except for Yun Qing's personal companionship, there was no one in the entire courtyard.
Aunt Liu's voice was very anxious: "Why don't I go to the master, can you still not know?" You little hoof, I didn't expect to be so stupid when I was a child, but now I am calculating step by step, I really underestimated you, and that Xu family, what is there to be proud of, if it weren't for your daughter, she would have given way a long time ago, and I am the head mother of the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”
This kind of thing is usually just Aunt Liu complaining in her room, and she never says it in front of outsiders. Today, I should be angry and ignore it.
"Aunt Liu's words are really funny, I have never heard my father say that he wants to change his mother, not to mention that your life experience is there, do you think my father is really stupid? After so many years of ups and downs in officialdom, he knows everything that can be obtained and what cannot be obtained. ”
To this day, Lin Qingge began to lay out, and the first chess piece was Aunt Liu.
