Chapter 259: Finding Evidence
Wenchang soon came to the news that An Shenxiang is a time-honored thing, and there is no problem with itself. But the soothing incense sent by Qin E was soaked in medicated water, and there were herbs that triggered asthma in it. Patients with asthma can use it for many years, which can aggravate the condition and even lead to death.
Qin E burned the letterhead in a charcoal basin and was speechless for a long time.
Wenchang, as the Zhiduoxing of Qilin Gate, is not in vain. Qin E just asked him to check if there was a problem with An Shenxiang, and not only did he find out quickly, but he also found out the formula of the potion, and followed the clues to find the person who bought medicinal materials in Qin's mansion.
Sometimes it's not a joy to know the truth.
Qin E watched the names on the paper being swallowed up by the flames, and felt that her body was so cold.
It's obviously a family, why are you so ruthless?
Qin E went to Yunxi Pavilion, and the thrush told her happily that Qin Huaiyu slept very well this night, and only got up once at night.
Qin E proposed, "Grandmother, I'll read the scriptures to you." ”
Qin Huaiyu said unexpectedly: "You still can read scriptures?"
Qin E smiled silently, took out a scripture book from the high stack of books next to the bed, and read it softly.
In the three years that she was imprisoned in the last life, she read it countless times day and night. In the empty room, the sound of chanting wafted, hiding a girl who had been wiped out of her liveliness and freedom.
In Qin E's soft voice, Qin Huaiyu gradually fell asleep.
The thrush came over lightly and put down the bed tent, and the joy on his face could not be hidden, and he worshipped: "Miss, you are really amazing." ”
Qin E smiled, chanting scriptures to make people fall asleep, well, it should be regarded as a powerful skill.
The goal was achieved, and Qin E went to Ning Xiang Yuan.
The Qi family is reconciling accounts with a group of mothers-in-law, and there are too many things to be busy with. Qin E waved her hand at Bai Ling, who was about to speak, and silently picked up a place to sit in the outhouse.
Bai Ling brought hot tea hotspots with his hands and feet, and Qin E took it with a smile, "Sister Bai Ling's earrings are so beautiful, they are a fashionable style, right?"
Bai Ling stroked the earrings that were bumped indiscriminately, and said with a shy smile: "The old shopkeeper in the silver building said yes, who knows." ”
Qin E drank tea and looked around.
"What is the eldest lady looking for?"
"Oh, it's nothing, I just think the house is so fragrant, look at what flowers are so fragrant. ”
Bai Ling smiled: "In the winter, how can there be any flowers, it is the incense lit in the lady's bedroom." ”
"I don't think it's like a flower, how can a flower be so fragrant. It smells so good, I've never smelled it, what kind of incense, where I bought it, and I'll buy some in the house when I go back. ”
Bai Ling said proudly: "This incense can't be bought outside." ”
Qin E was puzzled, "Why?"
"This is made by our lady herself, and naturally we can't buy it outside. ”
Qin E was surprised: "The second aunt can also make incense!"
Bai Ling said proudly: "Our lady is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, cooking, and female red, and before leaving the cabinet, she was famous for her talent and appearance, and the incense making was used to pass the time when her wife had nothing to do, which was nothing." ”
As she was talking, someone outside came looking for her. Since the second lady is the housekeeper, Bailing has also risen and become the most majestic big girl, faintly with the demeanor of Xia Zhu back then.
Qin E said kindly: "You are different now, you don't need to accompany me here, you can go with you." ”
Bai Ling confessed, called a maid with a double bun to come and wait, and hurried away with the comer.
Qin E continued to drink tea, and then when she put the tea bowl, her hand shook, and half a cup of hot tea was all buttoned on her skirt.
The maid hurriedly took out a handkerchief and wiped it, but where did she wipe it clean.
"Alas, the new skirt is so bad. Qin E furrowed her brows, "You go to Lanwan Yuan to find the second lady and ask her to find me a skirt and send it over." After speaking, he advised: "Don't let anyone else know, it's embarrassing, I'm waiting for you here." ”
The maid left in response, Qin E waited for her to go out, and listened to the sound in the study.
A few mothers-in-law are prevaricating, and they can't finish talking for a while.
Qin E changed the look of annoyance just now, and quickly entered Qi's bedroom.
Everything was actually calculated by her in advance.
She knew that the Qi family was the busiest at this time, and she also knew that Bai Ling was going to the warehouse to order goods. He came over alone and soiled his skirt, just to break everyone away and find an opportunity to enter Qi's room to find out.
According to the information provided by Wenchang, the person who bought the medicinal herbs was Bailing.
The harmful soothing incense should have been made by the Qi family, just as she suspected.
But this kind of evidence is not enough, if Bai Ling does not confess truthfully, relying on this personal witness alone will not be able to prove Qi's.
Physical evidence is required.
Qin E quietly searched around the house.
This kind of important thing should be kept in the most private and safe place.
Qin E has eight layers of certainty, and the evidence is in Qi's bedroom.
She only has one chance, and only a little time.
Qin E quickly and carefully rummaged through drawers and cabinets, but found nothing.
The aroma in the room hit people, and she was dizzy and anxious.
Suddenly, his eyes fell on a pattern on the head of the bed.
Qin E walked over and touched it, and then gently picked it in one place, and a small piece of wood was cut off.
There was a black wooden box in the dark box, and in the box was a handful of white powder, and a dozen or so incense.
The fine incense is exactly the same as the soothing incense lit in Qin Huaiyu's room.
Qin E didn't dare to take the incense, for fear of being discovered by the Qi family, so she only picked up a little powder and hid it in the sachet, stuffed it into her arms, and then quickly put the wooden board back in its place.
The next moment when she finished everything, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Qi walked in from the outside, his eyes cold with inquiry.
"Why are you here?"
Qin E smiled embarrassedly, "I accidentally spilled the tea on my body, so I hid in the house and waited for the maid to come back with her clothes." ”
Qi's expression softened slightly, and he smiled: "You too, why don't you tell me when you come." ”
"I'm not in a hurry anyway, it's not too late to wait until you're done. ”
"What's the matter with me?"
"There are only a few days left before the Chinese New Year, and I want to ask my second aunt when she will cut new clothes. Qin E lowered her head, her face was reserved and shy of a girl, "I also made two sets in the Li family before, but they were both worn out, and another set of ...... was scrapped when I fell into the water in Ning Bohou's Beizhuang a few days ago."
Qin E looked up at her and looked away with some embarrassment.
"That's what happened. Qi chuckled, "I was negligent, let Bailing tell you earlier." The people who have already made an appointment with Zhiyunfang will come over tomorrow, you and Lord Meng have made a marriage, you should buy a few sets of clothes, let them have a good look at the Jing'an Hou Mansion, and it will not be in vain for our Yuan Niang's beauty to sink into the fish and geese. ”
