Chapter 26O: The Water Falls

She doesn't want to be so confused, and she doesn't want her stepmother to take the blame for others, be criticized and wronged. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info so although Lu Qiuyue's matter seemed to have subsided on the surface, in fact, Mo Shaoli did not stop to investigate.

Fortunately, she has a group of girls with their own characteristics and are all very capable.

The investigation of the matter soon progressed.

"Girl, there's a discovery!" Qingcheng rushed in from outside the door carrying something.

"But what did you find in Luoxia Xuan?" Mo Shaoli asked hurriedly.

"It's not Luo Xia Xuan's people, it's red embroidery!" Qingcheng said and lifted up the thing he was holding in his hand, but put it down again, frowned and said, "It's a little dirty...... Otherwise, don't look at it yet, girl, and wait for Sister Luzhu to come back and ......."

"What is it?" Mo Shaoli's gaze fell on what Qingcheng was holding in his hand.

Dusty, dirty, and looks like ......

"It's a pillowcase!" Qingcheng said and handed it forward, but he still felt dirty, so he didn't hand it over to Mo Shaoli.

"Where did it come from? Red Embroidery ...... Jiashantang? ”

"No, in the woods in the back garden!"

"In the woods?" Mo Shaoli said strangely: "What is the red embroidery doing when the pillowcase is buried in the forest?" ”

As she spoke, she pinched the corner of the pillowcase with her hand and looked at it, and saw that it was not only stained with mud, but also seemed to be stained with blood. ”

"Luoxia Xuanli!"

Qingcheng said: "Didn't the girl let the slave maid go to Luoxia Xuan to watch them outside? As soon as the slave walked over, she saw Hongxiu walking out of Luoxia Xuan with this thing. Originally, at this time, Aunt Lu was contaminated with clothes, and it was normal to throw away some old ones. But the slave maid felt strange that it was not Luo Xiaxuan's subordinates who threw things, but red embroidery. Sister Xue Kite said that Hongxiu never took Aunt Lu in her eyes, how could she help her throw these away?

That's fine. The slave thought that the old lady had assigned her, and she couldn't help but do it. But what's even more strange is that after she came out with something from Luo Xiaxuan, she didn't throw it in the old basket outside, but looked left and right and ran to the back garden. When the slave saw that she was sneaky and suspicious, she couldn't help but quietly follow. Then he saw her go into the woods on the east side of the garden, and dig a pit and bury her. ”

"Suspicious!" Mo Shaoli pulled the pillowcase from Qingcheng's hand, "A pillowcase, throw it away, throw it away, what is she doing with all the effort to bury it?" Could it be that there is a secret hidden in this thing? Need to destroy incriminating evidence? ”

"The slave thinks so too!"

Qingcheng said: "The slave wanted to come back and report it to the girl at that time, but she was afraid that she would be discovered by the red embroidery, so she destroyed the pillowcase." So he quietly hid to the side and did not move, and waited for her to leave before leaving the garden. After coming out of the garden, I learned that the girl accompanied the fourth master to Jiashan Hall, and then accompanied Mrs. Weiyuan Hou and Mrs. Hou to Dongxi Courtyard. The slave and maid had no chance to report it, and they were afraid that if they were left alone, others would find out, so they went to the forest and dug it out. ”

When she said this, she added: "In order not to be discovered, the slave maid made the pit as it was, and when she came back, she deliberately turned her back on people's eyes and ears, and she didn't know that she wanted to come to the red embroidery." ”

"Good girl!" Mo Shaoli praised and continued to look at the dirty pillowcase.

The pillowcase was deliberately stained with blood by red embroidery, and was buried in the soil again, which was not only dirty, but also smelled strange.

But Mo Shaoli's master and servant, in the spirit of seeking the truth, took it and looked at it several times without disgust.

Finally, they discovered something extraordinary.

"This scent ......" Although the pillowcase exudes a strong earthy and bloody smell, you can still faintly smell the quiet aroma wafting.

It's very light, if there is nothing.

"Like?" Mo Shaoli felt very familiar, but he couldn't remember what the fragrance was.

Even though she had a lot of rare pills made by Qiu Guanghan, they were only the finished products of Qiu Daochang, and she didn't know a few other incense and medicines.

Green orange same.

"There are musk, sohexiang, sweet pine, lotus......" Luzhu said as he walked in from outside.

Lu Zhu is not only deaf and bright, but also has a very good sense of smell, she was originally very interested in drugs and spices, since her girl got Qiu Guanghan's good things, her recognition of drugs and spices has grown day by day.

"Musk?" Mo Shaoli was stunned.

Although she is not familiar with spices and rarely uses incense, she is not unfamiliar with the word "musk". The "divine objects" that often appear in palace fighting dramas, such a high-end thing actually appeared in the Mo family? Or is it the means of a maid? Also used on an aunt?

"It's like a ...... of Nanxiang," Lu Zhu picked up the pillowcase and carefully discerned, "but the musky fragrance is heavier than the usual Nanxiang." ”

"Nanxiang? It's what you said before, it is commonly used by large families in Suzhou and Hangzhou, but Beijing people don't like it, do you think it tastes light? Mo Shaoli asked.

Lu Zhu said: "Well, this kind of incense is not common in the capital. ”

"So ......"

Mo Shaoli handed the pillowcase to Qingcheng: "Go and ask Sister Zixuan to take apart the pillowcase and take a look." He asked Luzhu again: "Did you find anything in Luoxia Xuan?" ”

"Yes! The slave was about to tell the girl. Lu Zhu said, opened the handkerchief in his hand, and the inside was tightly wrapped, it was actually a bowl!

There are also some unidentified objects in the bowl.

Mo Shaoli glanced at the contents of the bowl, and then looked at it again: "This is ......" This thing is stranger and more flavorful than the pillowcase that Qingcheng dug out of the woods in the back garden...... Colorful!

She looked at it again: "Bird's nest? ”

Lu Zhu nodded: "Earlier, the old lady left Luoxiaxuan to go to Jiashantang to see someone from the Hou Mansion, and the slave maid jumped into Luoxiaxuan's courtyard from the west wall. Originally, the slave maid wanted to sneak into the main room to see what Aunt Lu was doing, but before she could enter the door, she saw Lotus come out of the ear room with a bowl, and muttered, "It's only been a day, why did it become like this?" And with the smell of medicine?

'Broken?' Or is bird's nest the way it tastes? She tasted it, frowned and swallowed, and stared at the bird's nest in the bowl, as if hesitating whether to eat it or throw it out. At this time, Aunt Lu called her in the house and asked her to bring some warm water in. Lotus put the bowl on the stone bench under the porch, and when the slave saw her enter the house, she brought the bowl back. ”

"Broken bird's nest ......" Mo Shaoli looked at the slimy things in the bowl.

"Could it be that this is the bowl that Lu Qiuyue ate yesterday morning? She didn't finish it because she disliked the smell of medicine and threw it to Lotus? The lotus flower is broken? Green beads, you may have tested if there is any medicine in it? What kind of put it? ”

Luzhu picked up the bowl and sniffed it, and picked a little bit and put it on the tip of his tongue: "White aconite, peach kernel...... The amount is very small, and other slaves and maids can't distinguish it for a while. ”

Mo Shaoli listened to it and felt that it was quite familiar.

It's all "fetish"!

She was stunned at the bird's nest, and Zixuan, who opened the pillowcase next to her, suddenly said, "What a delicate thought!" ”
