The three little girls looked at her suspiciously, Qi Xiangsi pinched the porcelain bottle thrown up, poured out the pills inside and asked Xiyue: "Where did it just come from?" ”
"That's not easy." Xiyue pouted, "Send someone to buy it." ”
"That means you don't know anything about its medicinal properties." Qi Xiangsi took the cup and melted one in it, the water was slowly turbid, and there was a smell of medicine under Qi Xiangsi's shaking, "People with weak stomachs will have diarrhea if they eat the first half of it, and if you go down this whole piece, I'm afraid you will have to squat until tomorrow morning." ”
"Stomach deficiency and cold body, these things are taboo on weekdays, especially women, and they will have spasms and convulsions." Qi Xiangsi nodded the cup, "You want to make her ugly, but the medicine is in someone else's place, and when something happens to these people, it is not her who will be ashamed, but Yueyang Wangfu." ”
"The banquet was hosted by my mother, even if the Yueyang Mansion was embarrassed, it was her fault." Ming Xiuxiu looked at Qi Xiangsi fixedly, her tone was still soft, but it was full of questions, "You want to help her?" ”
"I'm here to help you." Qi Xiangsi didn't avoid her gaze, but looked at each other, "She didn't arrange the banquet well, and it's right to lose the face of Yueyang Palace, but when your father comes back, the matter will be investigated, but if there is a clue, do you say that your father believes her or you?" ”
"What we can do is not leave a single piece of evidence."
"If a few people have abdominal pain after eating, what reason is there to make themselves feel bad at the banquet they host, doesn't that sound far-fetched?" Qi Xiangsi saw that her eyes changed, and asked again, "You said that she sent someone to poison your cat, why didn't you tell the old lady with the evidence." ”
"This little thing doesn't have to trouble the old lady." Xiyue snorted, Qi Xiangsi looked at her, "It's really not good to talk to the old lady without conclusive evidence." ”
The three girls quieted down, half loud, and the lord of Hanshan County spoke: "It turns out that there are many embroidered camellias that her mother likes in the palace, and there are still a lot of camellias that her mother raised when she was alive in the yard where she lived, and these camellias were originally taken care of very well, but not long after she entered the door, the camellia in the main courtyard was replaced, and the camellia in the yard over there gradually withered, and I found a gardener to come over and say that it was a worm, although we have no evidence, but we know that she did it." ”
Listening to Hanshan County's lecture on this, Ming Xiuxiu was silent, and when everyone quieted down, she raised her head and asked, "What is the good show you are talking about?" ”
......
The sky is getting dark, the lights in the garden of Yueyang Wangfu are bright, and the platform that has been set up is very busy, and seven or eight singers have just changed their clothes and listened to the instructions of the mother who led the team in the tent.
"This is not Baihua Lane, according to the last time, do you know, when it ends here, there will be rewards from you." The mother who led the team named people according to the list, and at the end, she called Hua Hui three times in a row, "What about the girl." ”
"Hua Yuan said she had a stomachache."
"Why is she so much going on!" Mom glared, there was no way, urging them to hurry up and get ready, "Gotta got, she is the back of the line, Ruyan, you go to find her, let you don't eat when you go out." ”
As soon as the words fell, Mingcui walked in and asked, "Mother Qiao, have you arranged it here?" ”
"Okay, okay, please rest assured, I'll do it absolutely properly, I've received several banquets like this, you just have to watch." Qiao's mother greeted with a smile, Mingcui glanced inside the tent, and didn't see anyone to see, "It's all together?" ”
"Naturally, it's all ready." Qiao's mother went out to greet Mingcui and said in a low voice, "Does the princess have any other orders?" ”
"Don't get it wrong, if you do it well this time, you will have a chance in the future." Mingcui looked around, and Qiao's mother nodded again and again, "Don't worry." ”
Seeing Mingcui leave, Qiao's mother turned around and entered the tent and urged: "Hurry up." ”
At this time, Hua Yuan, who was worried about Qiao's mother, was coming from the direction of Dengdong, knowing that the steps ahead were about to start but she was not in a hurry at all, looking at the garden, her eyes skimmed in the direction of the inner courtyard, and she smiled with a smile, and then smiled even more happily: "Isn't this lovesickness." ”
Dressed in red, she was particularly conspicuous in the night, and Hua Yuan saw her walking towards her, stretched out her hand to hold the wooden fence on the side, and looked at her with a comfortable expression.
"How much silver she gave you?" Saving the greetings, Qi Xiangsi walked up to her and hooked up the jade pendant tied around her waist, "Or, how many benefits did she promise you." ”
"Who are you talking about?"
"Qi Minlan."
"It's really what you can say, I haven't seen each other for a while, so let's say a few words first." Hua Yuan pulled back the tassels of the jade pendant one by one from her hand, and did not answer Qi Xiangsi's words, but just looked at her with a smile.
"Did she say that she could help you redeem yourself, get a good name for you, and arrange a family affair for you, so that you can have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life?" Qi Xiangsi was not in a hurry, and calmly said the conditions that Qi Minlan gave her, "This silver should not exceed three hundred taels." ”
There was silence for a moment, and Hua Yuan laughed: "Are you begging me?" ”
"Are you panicking when you see me here, for fear that I will say something on the spot and reveal your identity as a young lady of the Qi family." Seeing that Qi Xiangsi was silent, she smiled even more happily, "Tsk, you actually begged me." ”
Qi Xiangsi looked at her quietly, until the sound of music came from the garden, and she nodded: "Don't beg, ask you for a favor." ”
"If this attitude is the attitude of asking for people in this world, I'm afraid nothing can be done." Hua Hui looked at her calm appearance, and wanted to do one thing in her heart, lift this appearance, and see how nervous and scared she was.
"Qi Minlan doesn't know much about my affairs, and it's not necessarily what she told you, and when you come to the stage, you have to tell the whole story."
Hua Hui was stunned for a moment, and only realized what she meant, she didn't come to beg her, she wanted her to expose more of her affairs!
"How I was brought to the cottage in Huizhou, and what kind of life I lived for more than a month, the more detailed the better." Qi Xiangsi paused, and a smile rose at the corner of his mouth, "By the way, I have been begging in Yongzhou for three years after leaving the cottage, don't forget to mention this as well." ”
"You're really not Miss Qi." What Hua Yuan heard from the mouth of Princess Yueyang was that she was an impostor, but even if she was arrested and went to the cottage together, she couldn't answer Princess Yueyang's question, she didn't know where Acacia came from, and she didn't even know the truth of her name.
"A Ying's biological mother was indirectly killed by Qi Minlan's aunt." Qi Xiangsi's voice suddenly cold, "If it weren't for this, Ah Ying would not have been arrested on the street and taken to the cottage, let alone displaced, and finally died of illness in a broken temple." ”
"What does this have to do with me?" Hua Hui came back to her senses, and her tone was full of playfulness, "Maybe she didn't escape with you, and she was still alive now." ”
"It has nothing to do with you." Qi Xiangsi looked at him, and seemed to be smiling, "It's just that you think that if you say something like that on stage today, you can still stay in Xiaoyao Building unharmed?" ”
Hua Yuan's face darkened: "You are threatening me." ”
"I just want you to save more silver to redeem yourself, and if you tell the story well, I'll give you an extra three hundred taels of silver."
Hua Wei snorted: "You think I am rare with this bit of silver." "Even if she came here, she didn't come to the conditions that Princess Yueyang gave her.
"Li Gongzi of the Shangshu family, you are very diligent these days, he is handsome and chic, and he is also generous." Qi Xiangsi lowered his head, raised his foot and gently rubbed the stones on the ground, raised his head halfway, and the smile on his face was full of sincerity, "Do you want to enter the door of the Li family." ”
————————————————————————————
When Qi Xiangsi went back, she had already finished performing two songs and dances on stage, and Qi Minlan had already entered the table, laughing and talking with the lady next to her.
Qi Minyan was concerned about how she had been there for so long, Qi Xiangsi shook her head: "Maybe I ate a little too much in the afternoon." ”
Qi Minshu on the side heard their conversation, and wanted to say something, but after colliding with Qi Xiangsi, she faintly skimmed over to the stands.
When the music resumed, the seven or eight dancers on the stage retreated, and a touch of red with a different color appeared among them, as if it was blooming among them, attracting the attention of many people.
It is a common thing in banquets to invite people from the music workshop to perform like this, just like the troupe, the banquet is grand, and the money spent is naturally the best, Qi Minlan saw that everyone nodded, and her face also floated with a touch of satisfaction, how much work did she spend to complete this banquet, speaking of which, none of the people who went back to the British Mansion last time came to satisfy the guests, good show, good show is still to come.
After thinking about it, she looked towards the place where the Qi family was sitting, and her eyes were fixed on Qi Xiangsi's face, this time her identity must be revealed, just in case she still has a back hand, she will never have a chance to quibble.
Qi Xiangsi felt her gaze, did not turn her head, but looked at the flowers that were clustered among the dancers on the stage, and her eyes fell on the two guqins that had just been placed behind them.
Sure enough, after the dancer gradually retreated, Hua Yuan turned to the guqin with a light dance posture, leaned lightly on the chair, and plucked lightly on the guqin, and should be with several masters who played music on the side.
Such a special opening attracted everyone's attention, Hua Hui sat down behind the guqin, looked at the vacant position on the side, and gradually floated a touch of worry and embarrassment on her smiling face, when everyone realized that she was really embarrassed, Hua Hui had already opened her mouth and asked Princess Yueyang for instructions, and the other musician of the ensemble was sick, and she couldn't complete Jiang Yue Nocturne alone.
Qi Xiangsi smiled when she heard that song, and sure enough, Hua Yuan soon knew that one of Princess Yueyang's sisters was good at playing the piano, especially this song was particularly good.
"The slave family knows that they have the courage to say this, but this song is really impossible to play alone, if you don't dislike the slave family, can you invite Miss Qi to come and play this song with the slave family." Hua Yuan looked at the Qi family's location, her eyes were sincere, full of expectation.
With her gaze, others also looked here, only to see Qi Minqing, who had only arrived later, pulled Qi Xiangsi's sleeve, and said lightly: "Fifth sister, is she asking you to go up and play in the ensemble?" ”
It was so logical, Qi Xiangsi stood up under the gaze of everyone, and humbly refused: "I'm not good at piano, I'm sorry you invite someone else." ”
As soon as the words fell, Guqin covered his mouth and exclaimed: "Why are you!" 166 Reading Network
