At the time of Youshi, he promised to return to the Song Mansion with July.

When Lu Jiuniang saw the two of them coming back, she immediately stepped forward to close the door and said, "Finally back, Song Dalang invited us to dinner, and we have already sent someone to invite us twice." ”

As soon as he heard the promise, he knew that this could not be pushed off, so he immediately called Chuntang over, and his voice was low and fast: "Chuntang, find me a heavier color of clothing, and add two headdresses." ”

As he spoke, he took off his clothes.

"Yes. When Chuntang heard this, he took down the clothes that had been prepared from the hanger, helped Xu promise to change them, and took two gold grates to decorate her.

After cleaning up, several people hurried to the banquet.

After dinner, it was not yet dark, and he promised to rest when he was tired, so he went back to the house first.

Lu Jiuniang and Hu Ling sat for a while, and then said goodbye one after another.

The rest of the people in the hall chatted and talked about today's peony garden.

Song Jiao asked Xu Pingyi: "Xu Dalang, what do they say about the people in the government today?"

Xu Pingyi was originally holding the tea cup in a trance, but when he heard someone tell him to shake his hands, the tea soup almost spilled.

"Brother Song, I just helped protect the scene, I don't know what happened to the government's investigation. Xu Pingyi euphemistically explained that today's death of Wu Niangzi was not an accident, but a murder, but he couldn't say it in detail, and he didn't want to talk about it, after all, those were all told to him by Ji Xuan, and Ji Xuan's discovery had not been told to the government at the moment.

"It's a pity that a good peony flower is ruined like this! The poems I wrote are also ......" Song Jiao seemed a little unhappy, shook his head and said no more.

Ding Mo heard this. Then he said: "Today's matter, what is going on still needs to wait for the government to decide, and it seems that the peony banquet will not end because of this." At most, the garden was sealed. Tomorrow you should go to the peony garden or go, the poems can't be delayed, but some timid ladies may not go again tomorrow. ”

……

On the other side, she promised to tell Lu Jiuniang what Ji Xuan told her.

She knew that Lu Jiuniang liked to deduce, so she didn't tell her the results directly, but listed the clues she had collected.

Lu Jiuniang thought for a while. Said: "Liuniang, who did you say gave this poison? Who wanted to harm her? I can't figure it out. ”

Wu Niangzi is just an embroidery girl, so she won't let people take such poison to kill her.

After speaking. Something flashed through Lu Jiuniang's mind, her eyes suddenly widened, she looked at Xu Yue in disbelief, and muttered, "It won't be her." It shouldn't be. It's just a trivial matter, even if she has a strong self-esteem, it won't be like this, not to mention that she doesn't have the ability to get a drunken flower dream. ”

Xu Promise chuckled and said, "It's not her, but it will be her." ”

Lu Jiuniang frowned and said, "Someone wants to frame Xu Qian?" I can't think of a reason, no one will do this." Xu Qian didn't mess with anyone when she came to the capital. ”

Xu Yu didn't expect that she just said a plausible word, and Lu Jiuniang deduced the result. couldn't help but be impressed by Lu Jiuniang's analytical ability.

Xu Promise shook his head and said helplessly: "She's just a chess piece, and others framing her are not necessarily aimed at her, do you know what news I got from Wu Niangzi's maidservant?"

"Talk about it, I almost forgot about it. After promising to jump out of the fast-moving carriage, Lu Jiuniang kept hanging her heart, but Hu Ling, who was traveling with her, didn't worry at all, but said that she was timid.

She was nervous for an afternoon, and when she saw the promise, she forgot to ask the most important thing.

Xu Promise smiled mysteriously, grabbed Lu Jiuniang's shoulder, and whispered in her ear.

Wu Niangzi came to Luoyang this time to accompany the personal maid, there is also a rough maidservant, promised to return to the peony garden when Wu Niangzi's personal maid has been taken away by the government, she looked for a while, and found that July was talking to the rough maid.

Hu Ling glanced at the two of them who were concentrating, feeling bored, so he continued to pay attention to the situation outside, lest what was said here be heard.

The maidservant said that their lady had never gone out since she went to King Ning's Mansion once, and she had not seen any guests, if she said who she had seen, it was Xu Qian, and Xu Qian also sent some tea when she went. ”

When Lu Jiuniang heard this, she straightened up and said incredulously: "Is she stupid?

Xu Promise shrugged and continued: "Wu Niangzi was originally going to smash this tea group, but her personal maid persuaded her that this tea could be seen, but she didn't smash it after thinking about it. ”

Lu Jiuniang frowned, and said in an affirmative tone: "Impossible, I look at the scene on my grandfather's birthday, Wu Niangzi will not drink the tea sent by Xu Qian for this reason......"

Xu Promise showed the expression of the son of a child, and said: "Exactly, do you know what Wu Niangzi did last time she went to Ning Wang's Mansion? That day, the county lord of Jiaren entrusted Wu Niangzi to help her embroider a peony patterned big sleeve, and also gave her an invitation to participate in the peony flower banquet. ”

"So, Wu Niangzi came to the peony banquet this time mainly to observe the shape of the flower and embroider clothes for the lord of Jiaren County? Could it be that her eyes couldn't see clearly, so she drank the tea sent by Xu Qian in order to embroider the peony flowers. Before the people from the government came, the ladies who drank tea with Mrs. Wu also said that Mrs. Wu invited them to drink tea that could be seen. ”

Lu Jiuniang followed the promised clues and introduced the truth, and her heart suddenly cooled most of the time.

What is Jiaren County Lord going to do?

Xu Nuo's arm was lowered from Lu Jiuniang's body, and her voice was cold: "Do you remember the birthday gift we gave to the county lord of Jiaren? ”

Lu Jiuniang nodded, and asked with a solemn face: "What, has something to do with this matter?"

Hu Ling rushed over with an arrow, pointed to the outside with one hand, crossed his waist with the other, and said in disgust: "I know her best, as long as there is something unpleasant, or someone is in her way, she has to think of a way to fight back, and I think this time it will be her counterattack." ”

"Sanniang is right, the county lord of Jiaren is taking revenge this time. The more Xu Yu spoke, the colder his voice became, and after a pause, he said: "Xu Qian came to the capital and was picked up by the people of the county lord of Jiaren, and at that time, Xu Qian was a chess piece, a chess piece used to destroy the Xu family. Moreover, I learned from Wu Niangzi's maidservant today that Wu Niangzi would go to Xufu to teach female workers, which was arranged by the county lord of Jiaren. ”

"Does Xu Qian know that Wu Niangzi is the person of the county lord of Jiaren?" Lu Jiuniang saw Xu Yu burying her head, thinking that she was sad, she hurriedly held her hand and squeezed it lightly.

She naturally knew that otherwise there would not be the scene on Old Lady Hu's birthday, and now the county lord of Jiaren took advantage of the events of that day and played another step of chess. Xu Promise looked up and smiled to indicate that he was fine.

"Liuniang, how can a rough maidservant know so much? What I do, my handmaid doesn't know, let alone a rough servant. Hu Ling listened with his cheeks on the side, and suddenly asked.

Xu Yu was amused by Hu Ling's strange attention, and said: "You rarely let your maidservants enter, and you never take them when you go out, how do they know what you have done? ”

When Hu Ling heard this, he felt that this was indeed the reason, and couldn't help laughing.

"Liuniang, I also have doubts. After Lu Jiuniang went through this matter in her heart, she asked.

"How?"

"First, could the maid who persuaded Mrs. Wu to drink tea every day be the person of the county lord of Jiaren? Second, since the county lord of Jiaren wanted to frame the Xu family, why did he use such a complicated method, which could be simple and poisonous. ”

Xu Yu looked at Lu Jiuniang, her eyes were calm and deep, but her voice was a little heavy, and said: "That maid has been taken away by the government now, if she is the person of the county lord of Jiaren, she can't survive tonight, if not, then there is still a way to live." As for why the county lord of Jiaren used Drunken Flower Dream, I am afraid that it is because she has always liked to use complicated methods to kill people with a knife, and the more complicated the case, the safer she is. If there are other poisons, I am afraid that this effect will not be achieved, and it will be difficult for Wu Niangzi to die without noticing. ”

"Ji Wulang said that this poison is difficult to detect, what if the people in the government can't find out?" Lu Jiuniang knew that she had promised to persuade Ji Xuan today, and she didn't let Ji Xuan tell the drunken flower dream, so she asked like this.

"If we can't find out, it can only mean that we are wrong to blame the county lord of Jiaren, and we are wrong. ”

The implication of the promise is that the county lord of Jiaren will secretly help the government find out the cause of Wu Niangzi's death.

The government spent a lot of effort to find out the murderer, and it is likely that the case will be accepted and no longer investigated, which is probably the reason why the county lord of Jiaren chose this method.

After making a promise, he reached out and removed all the hair ornaments on his head, put them on the table beside him, and his hair was scattered, and he combed a ponytail.

"Liuniang, what are you going to do?" Lu Jiuniang was still figuring out the case, but was taken aback by the promised move.

"You can't just watch people die. Promise smiled playfully and took a dagger out of the box.

Wu Niangzi's maidservant girl is likely to be killed by the county lord of Jiaren, and she has to save her. (To be continued.) )
