Chapter 44: Secrets
With Hua Qiao's status today, it can be said that she can walk sideways in Ye Mansion, even the newly promoted big girls around the old lady have to give her three points of thin noodles, not to mention these mothers-in-law who are responsible for guarding the firewood room.

"It's an honor for you two to come and see this slave of sin." The mother-in-law at the head complimented: "But this criminal slave is crazy, you have to be careful with a noble person like you." ā
"It's pitch black, what can you see? Go get a candle, it's bigger. Hanade commanded with a grin, looking like she was enjoying the feeling of a big girl.
"Yes." The head mother-in-law glanced at Hua Qiao and hurriedly ordered someone to fetch it.
Hua Qiao had been thinking about it, took the candle and looked inside through the narrow wooden window, but she could only see a thin figure huddled in the corner, and she couldn't see anything clearly.
"Isn't that crazy? Why is it so quiet, don't die. Hua Zhi said disgustedly on the side.
"No, no, I kept shouting that I was a green girl a few days ago."
"What?!" Hua Qiao turned her head to stare at her sharply: "She's Luqi?" ā
The guard's mother-in-law hurriedly laughed and said: "It's all the old woman who misled the girl, it's this criminal slave who is crazy and talking nonsense, how can you take it seriously." ā
"You open the door, I'll go in and have a look." Hua Qiao's eyes are firm.
"This ...... It's not in order. The caretaker rubbed her hands, a little embarrassed, "This sin slave openly cursed our princess on the street that day, and she was sick and couldn't ...... Therefore the old lady did not allow anyone to come near her, lest any more gossip should be heard. ā
Hua neatly removed a jade bracelet from his wrist, "I came to see what kind of gossip was passed on by my young lady's order." ā
The mother-in-law took the bracelet into her arms with a happy face, and couldn't help nodding: "Yes, yes, you are the person of the princess, and the old lady will not guard against it, please come in." ā
She opened the door neatly and instructed, "It's just a mess in here, you have to be careful with your step." ā
A stench came to the face, and the two girls were smoked, hiding their faces and frowning.
Hua Qiao gritted her teeth, walked in, and stepped on the muddy ground that I don't know if it was mixed with urine, and where the candlelight shone, the ground was a mess.
There were moldy nests thrown in from outside, and straw mixed with urine, giving off a strange stench.
How can this kind of place be stupid!
Hua Zhi couldn't wait to pull Hua Qiao out on the spot, but she didn't want to speak at all in this environment.
Hua Qiao was also very responsive, but as soon as she gritted her teeth, she still walked towards the black and swarthy figure shrunk in the corner, and this time Hua Zhi did not follow in disgust, but ran to the door of the room to catch a breath of fresh air.
"Green ...... Green Joe? "It's a pity that the other party shouldn't have it at all.
The candle flame was illuminated, and the thin body with a cloak that was even worse than the beggar woman on the street, Hua Qiao boldly called: "Lu Qi? ā
"Huh?" The figure shouted in a hoarse voice, raised its head weakly, and said in an extremely dry voice: "Flower...... Fancy flowers? ā
Hua Qiao was so frightened that she screamed and took a few steps back.
"Did Miss ask you to come and save me?" The man who was huddled in the corner was agitated and crawled towards this side.
"Ahh Hua Qiao screamed and fell backwards, only then did she realize that Lu Qiao's hands and feet were strangely bent, as if they had been discounted, and now they were like humanoid worms, constantly crawling towards this side.
"Hua Qiao, I'm Lu Qi, I'm Lu Qi!" The worm-like humanoid creature crawled unkempt, its hoarse voice barely audible for Green Joe.
Hua Qiao boldly took a look at her face, old and decrepit and dirty, and she could vaguely see the voice and smile of the big girl Lu Qiao.
"You are bold! Until now, she dares to pretend to be Sister Luqi! Hua Qiao really found it difficult to associate her with Lu Qi, who had just accompanied the young lady into the palace, and scolded her.
"We've been serving Miss for so long, me!" Green Joe suddenly screamed, rolling on the ground in pain, rubbing all the filth on the ground, "I am...... I'm Lu Qiqiao, ah! I'm Green Joe......" she screamed on the ground like crazy,
"Come out, girl!" The caretaker's wife called out urgently, and Hua Qiao was frightened and ran out of it as if she had fled.
With a bang, the door closed tightly, and the guard locked it.
"This sin slave is crazy, and he is either a green girl or a green girl talking nonsense all day long, and he doesn't know who he is." The mother-in-law didn't care, obviously used to the nonsense of the people inside.
Hua Qiao was still speechless.
Hua Zhi patted her heart: "Let's go quickly, Miss has explained something else." ā
"Hmm," Hua Qiao was still trembling slightly, and was helped back to Tongyin Building by Hua Zhi.
The night was quiet and mysterious, she lay on the couch tossing and turning, her mind full of green Qiao struggling in the dirt, her hideous and painful face, she kept screaming.
"I'm Lu Qi, I'm Lu Qiao, who am I, who am I?"
"Ahh Hua Qiao was frightened and couldn't sleep, and she always felt that there was a pair of eyes staring at her, which made her very uneasy.
"Miss, Miss, come back soon......" The little girl hugged the quilt and cried in the corner.
The only candle by the bed flickered and went out.
ā¦ā¦
Of course, Lu Zhaojin didn't know what was going on at home.
She took Lu Qi straight to the palace of Concubine Wei, and there were already more than a dozen imperial doctors kneeling outside the house, but they still couldn't diagnose anything.
"Your Royal Highness the Eighth Prince, everything, everything is normal......" When Lu Zhaojin entered the door, he heard Imperial Doctor Zhang trembling.
"Everything is normal, everything is normal, why does my son keep falling asleep!" The emperor kicked him over in annoyance, looked up and saw Lu Zhaojin, although his face was still not good-looking, he ordered: "Lu, go in and take a look." ā
When Wei Guifei heard that Lu Zhaojin was coming, she hurriedly ran out, her apricot eyes swollen like walnuts, "Zhaojin!" ā
She almost fell to the ground, and Lu Zhaojin hurriedly helped her: "Niangniang, I can't help it." ā
The emperor didn't feel that Wei Guifei had lost the prestige of the imperial concubine at this moment, but thought that she was really cute, and hugged Wei Guifei in his arms: "Shu'er, don't be afraid, wasn't it the Lu family who saved the emperor last time?" ā
Lu Zhaojin saw the salute for the first time, and went directly into the house.
The child who was less than two months old was brought in, sleeping peacefully, and Lu Zhaojin checked his pulse, and it was indeed nothing wrong.
But this is the biggest anomaly, because of this toss, but the child has not been awakened until now.
She ripped open the baby's tender lips and worked her aura, keenly aware of some blood-red powder.
Lu Zhaojin put the powder into the space analysis without a trace, and was shocked to find that the ingredients in it turned out to be the most common sleeping powder.
"No wonder they can't wake up." This kind of powder is to let the child sleep peacefully, and there is no other indication at all.
But the imperial doctors of the palace include her, who would have thought that the dignified Eighth Emperor would be fed sleeping medicine?
Lu Zhaojin said that the cause of the illness in the future was 1510, and he always felt that this incident with the Eighth Prince was deliberately led into the palace by someone.
"Midori?" She called, but there was no figure of Midori when she turned around.
