Chapter 217
At this time, why is there no wrinkle in the upper and lower clothes on the body, and the hair accessories on the hair have not been removed, and it does not look like he has rested at all. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info And he also found a very important place, that is, her hand, that Xie Qiongju seemed to be suddenly frightened because of the sudden appearance of Xie Bai, and the hand that put the letter held the letter before he had time to take it back.
So when Xie Bai saw her hand, he knew that this Xie Qiongju was pretending to be a person, Xie Qiongju has been pampered since he was a child, and he has never worked, even the needlework that the girl has to learn, she is afraid of being pricked by the needle, afraid of pain, coquettish and unwilling to learn, Master Xie gave birth to three boys, and finally gave birth to a girl, Master Xie naturally spoiled this daughter to the extreme, but it was such a trivial matter as not learning needlework, Master Xie naturally immediately agreed to his daughter's request, his daughter does not need to learn these, as long as she lives happily。 So it is conceivable that Xie Qiongju's hands are crystal clear, naturally there is not even a scar, and at this time, the hands in front of him have obviously done a lot of rough work, how can it be the hands of his pampered sister?
"Sister, aren't you uncomfortable? It's not a good night's rest, what are you doing?" Even if Xie Bai knew that this was a fake Xie Qiongju, he still pretended not to know, afraid that as soon as he said the truth, this fake Xie Qiongju ran away.
"Well, well......" At this time, Xie Qiongju's personal maid Bei'er was already scared into a cold sweat, how could she hide it from the third young master! So Belle didn't open her mouth for a long time.
Xie Bai naturally knew why she didn't speak, pretending not to know, while slowly approaching the fake Xie Qiongju, and asked with concern, "Could it be that there is something uncomfortable, or is it ......."
Xie Bai was talking, diverting the attention of the fake Xie Qiongju, and slowly approached, reaching out to hold the fake Xie Qiongju and tearing off the fake human face on her face.
"Or you are not Xie Qiongju at all, so you don't dare to say it!" Xie Bai twisted his head desperately over the fake Xie Qiongju's face, and shook it hard.
"Belle, why you? What about your young lady!" Xie Bai saw that it was Xie Qiongju's personal maid, so he let go of his hand.
And Belle saw that she had been recognized by the third young master, so she immediately knelt down and admitted her mistake: "Third young master, please forgive me, forgive the slave maid for not being able to tell you where the young lady went." If you want to beat or scold, the slaves and maids will admit it. ”
"Do you know what will happen if you don't tell me the truth now? Xie Qiongju and Qin Jingxing have already asked the prince to let people be monitored, although I don't know why now, but it shouldn't be a good thing to think about, so for the sake of your young lady's safety, you'd better tell me everything you know. Xie Bai saw that Belle looked like he didn't have oil and water, and patiently analyzed the severity of the matter to her.
When Belle heard this, she became anxious, and told Xie Bai everything she knew, without hiding a single thing.
Xie finally understood why the prince was such a busy man, and he was in the mood to send someone to monitor the woman who had not yet left the cabinet, it turned out that it was with this intention that the Qin Mansion had been under the prince's door and became a well-known princeling, and the Xie Mansion, which was as powerful as the Qin Mansion, had always held a neutral attitude and did not participate in partisan disputes, it seemed that the prince was trying to let the Qin Mansion and the Xie Mansion marry to achieve the goal of containing the Xie Mansion.
If this is the reason, presumably Xie Qiongju should be safe at this time, but in order to avoid Xie Fu from being restrained in the future, he still has to hurry up to stop Zhao Mingchen's conspiracy. Only then did he rush over to meet with the men sent to monitor the prince, in order to avoid a head-on conflict with the prince, all the people could be covered, Xie Bai led half of the men and horses from the front door to attract their attention, and the rest hid in the shadows and took the opportunity to save people. Only then was he able to get out of the way.
If it weren't for the fact that he was still a little uneasy, this whole thing would have been a mess a long time ago, and now the culprit who caused this series of things would still have the face to cry. Although Xie Bai can't bear it, she still has to make her suffer a little more and have a long memory, otherwise the next time she stabs Lou Zi, she may not know how big it is!
Seeing Xie Qiongju who slowly stopped crying, Xie Bai planned to have a good talk with her, so he asked Belle to go down: "Belle, I let you kneel for so long today, it will be regarded as a punishment for you, but you have to remember, if you dare to help the abuse, this young master will not be spared, you go down first!"
Belle helped Miss to make such a big mistake this time, even if she was sold out of the house, it was her own crime and deserved, and she would not have a trace of complaints. However, as soon as Belle heard the words of the third young master, she naturally knew that the third young master was giving herself a way to live, and said gratefully: "Thank you, third young master, the slave maid has taken it to heart." ”
After Belle also retreated, Xie Bai saw that Xie Qiongju, who was still sitting on the ground, had not gotten up, obviously worried that her body would not be able to stand the cold on the ground, but she was not the kind of person who directly said her concern, and said stiffly: "How long do you have to sit on the ground, do you want to get cold and get sick, you don't have to think about the consequences, right?"
Xie Qiongju obviously didn't mean that, but he distorted the facts so much, in order to prove that he didn't think like that, Xie Qiongju got up from the ground, swaggered to the chair next to Xie Bai and sat down, staring at Xie Bai with wide eyes, as if telling Xie Bai that he was not the kind of person who was irresponsible, and he didn't know at all that he was being provoked by Xie Bai.
"Now that the prince has no witnesses, naturally he can't do anything, I don't know if you and Qin Jingxing have left any handles for them?" If they didn't leave any handles, as long as the parties didn't admit it, and there were no other witnesses, presumably Zhao Mingchen and they wouldn't make much trouble.
"Third brother, the letters exchanged between me and Qin Jingxing are in Qin Miao's hands. Xie Qiongju thought about it, and still told this matter, if she still hid it now, the consequences would not be something she could bear.
"Letter?" Xie Bai frowned slightly.
"Yes, Brother Qin said that Qin Miao threatened him with those letters, forcing him to come to Xie Mansion to propose marriage, Brother Qin knew that this matter was not as beautiful as it appeared on the surface, and there were some hidden schemes, but he was afraid that Qin Miao would spread these letters and ruin my reputation, so we had to come up with this method of elopement. Xie Qiongju told Xie Bai all the reasons why the two of them had to leave the capital.
Qin Jingxing still has a bit of brains, and he still knows that this matter is not as simple as it seems on the surface. But now the letters are in Qin Miao's hands, if the two of you don't get married, once the content of the letter spreads, rumors will spread in the capital, and it will be extremely bad for you and Xie Mansion. In my opinion, the plan now is to get those letters back before Qin Miao can react. Xie Bai guessed that Qin Miao must have known what had happened at this time, and now it was already night, whether he took those envelopes into the palace to see the saint and ask the saint to marry in person, or rushed to the Xie Mansion and personally proposed to Master Xie, it was too late, so at this time, he took advantage of his unpreparedness and sent someone to sneak into the Qin Mansion to find and destroy the letter.
So Xie Bai immediately ordered his most powerful assistant to go to the Qin Mansion to destroy the evidence. Then there is only one thing left that is the most difficult of all things.
"Brother, Sister Yueniang is like this now, it's all my fault, we must find a way to save her. Xie Qiongju was full of guilt when she thought of Yueniang, blaming herself, if she hadn't insisted on taking her alone to persuade the prince, Yueniang's sister would not have had an accident.
"This is indeed extremely tricky, in the early years of my travels, I used to go to that side of Xinjiang, where the witchcraft of the Miao people, although it sounds amazing, people can't believe it, but if you see it with your own eyes, you will believe that it is true. My master and I were fortunate enough to meet, but those masters who practiced witchcraft have always avoided the crowd and lived alone, coming and going without a trace, and if she hadn't appeared by herself, it would have been difficult to find her. Therefore, if you want to find someone from the Miao tribe here who is proficient in witchcraft in three days, the possibility is very small. Xie Bai remembered the years when he traveled with his master, if he hadn't been there at that time, he would have returned to the Nine Heavens long ago, staying in the Biansai area forever, often accompanying the desert to watch the afterglow dissipate.
When Xie Qiongju heard them talk about this frontier Miao tribe when he was in Fufu, he felt very familiar, I don't know when, I heard someone mention it, and now I heard it again from Xie Bai's mouth, and I am even more sure that I must have heard it somewhere before, but before, I didn't go out of the door and didn't step out, but I had never heard of it, I had never seen it. Where have you heard of it?
After Xie Bai finished speaking, he found that Xie Qiongju was frowning, poking his head with his index finger, as if he was searching for something in his mind.
"Why can't you think of it? Ouch, I'm this wooden head!" Xie Qiongju poked his head fiercely, forgetting what he should remember, he can't remember it now, where have he heard it?
Xie Bai looked at her and asked curiously, "What can't I think of?" But what other tricks have fallen into the hands of others?"
"No, there is no other handle, it's about Sister Yueniang, and when I was in Fufu, I said that the poison in Sister Yueniang's body came from the Miao people in the border area, and it was made by those women who practiced witchcraft, so if we want to save Sister Yueniang, we have to find the person who made the poison, at that time, I felt that this Frontier Miao was very familiar, and I should have heard it mentioned not long ago. But when I think about it, I feel as if I have misremembered, but just now, brother, you mentioned it again, and my intuition told me that I must have heard it somewhere before, and it was a very important thing about the Frontier Miao Tribe, but now my brain is in a mess, and I can't remember anything?"
Xie Bai felt that there must be something strange in this matter, in this capital, very few people know about the witchcraft practiced by the Miao people in Xinjiang here, and he is fortunate to know that it is also because he has been there, if he has not been there, he must not have known, but where did he, his sister, hear about it?
The witchcraft of the Miao people in Xinjiang is called a forbidden art in the capital, so it is not well known to everyone. A long, long time ago, these women who are proficient in witchcraft are also like others, all over the country, many women who are proficient in witchcraft rely on their own witchcraft to make money to support themselves, this witchcraft is originally a method of harming people, but there are many people who ask them to use witchcraft to kill or hurt the people they are ruthless at a high price, if it is just like this, it will not become a reason for people to be afraid of them, but it is also on the rivers and lakes, more special killers, only for grievances or money to kill, ordinary people who have always had no grievances with them, naturally will not be afraid of them。
It's just that if the women who practice witchcraft don't let go of Gu to harm people all year round, then the witchcraft they practice will backfire on their own, causing them to lose their own vitality, so as a last resort, ordinary people often suffer from Gu magic, which causes public indignation, and the people resist these witchcraft everywhere, calling it evil magic.
In addition, a bloody case in the palace at this time is also related to this witchcraft. A concubine is not favored all the year round, and I heard by chance that this witchcraft can not only harm people, but there is also a kind of love Gu called love Gu, as long as he plants love Gu for his beloved, then he will die to himself in this life. So the concubine secretly went to find a Gu master from the people to help her regain the emperor's favor, and when she planted the love Gu on the emperor according to what the Gu master said, sure enough, the emperor's favor returned to herself, and for a time she was promoted from an ordinary concubine to a concubine. Once she has the power and the emperor's favor, the concubine Niangniang straightens her waist when she speaks, and she doesn't even pay attention to the queen. If it goes on like this, as long as she gives birth to the prince, it is not impossible for the emperor to be deposed and re-established as the queen.
It's just that at this time came the news that the queen was three months pregnant, like a basin of cold water poured down on her head, not to mention the strength of the queen's mother's family, the queen mother is still her aunt, and now the queen is pregnant with the dragon seed, if she gives birth to the prince, as expected, she will be able to be established as the prince, so if you want to shake her throne, it will be difficult to ascend to the sky. As long as the queen has nothing to do, and she is now relying on the emperor's favor, but it is only a matter of time before she goes down to the dragon, and then she will force the emperor to abolish the queen and let herself ascend to the throne.
