After being silent in the pavilion for a long time, Zhao Wanqing suddenly seemed to remember something, looked at Cuizhu with a stern and nervous face and asked, "Where did you get this recipe?"

"It was given by the underworld."

"Underworld?"

She didn't know what kind of place Difu was, and she didn't know what kind of place Difu Mama was, so naturally she couldn't understand Cuizhu Fangcai's explanation. At this time, I just wondered why someone would give my aunt such a poisonous prescription?

According to her understanding of her aunt, she is calm by nature, open-minded, respects natural principles in everything, and is not the kind of woman who regards appearance as her life, let alone make such a decision for the grace of her husband, not to mention that her uncle loves her aunt so much, why does she need to fight?

A terrible thought suddenly popped up in my mind: Could it be that someone deliberately hid the hidden dangers hidden in it and murdered my aunt by hyping up the anti-beauty effect of this party?

But if that's the case, then how can you let such a little girl as Cuizhu hand it over? She just listened to Yuxuan's subordinates, not her aunt's personal maid! Wouldn't it be a better choice to hand it over to Mama Gui?

Zhao Wanqing was puzzled.

"Cousin Wan doesn't know," Xia Xue'er turned to look at Zhao Wanqing, who was guessing wildly, and explained: "The underworld is the place where punishment is imposed in the house, and the grandmother there is the woman who is responsible for carrying out the punishment, and she is ruthless. According to Cuizhu, Fang Cai's medicine was obtained from the punishment mother, and he estimated who couldn't help but confide in the stolen goods after making a mistake. ”

"Whether it is stolen goods or incriminating evidence is not yet known," Xia Qiaoyun suddenly sneered, and then interjected: "Ten ** is a means used by a misbehaving woman to charm the Lord!"

Hearing this, Xia Xue'er just smiled slightly, picked up the teacup seemingly indifferently, and tasted it slowly, leaving a fragrance on her lips. And Zhao Wanqing frowned, Xia Qiaoyun's words were too flamboyant and spicy, without the slightest demeanor of a lady from a big family, and she grew up in a gentle place in the south of the Yangtze River since she was a child, and most of the people she came into contact with on weekdays were reserved and introverted, so it was inevitable that she would be a little unaccustomed to it for a while.

In this way, neither of them spoke, only drinking new tea thoughtfully. Instead, Cuizhu opened her mouth and asked, "Miss, in that case, does the slave still need to hand over this thing to Madame?"

Intentionally or unintentionally, the three of them set their eyes on the brocade bag lying quietly in the palm of Cuizhu's palm, each with something on their minds.

Xia Xue'er put down the blue and white porcelain teacup in her hand, glanced at Xia Qiaoyun inadvertently, and then said: "Since it is something that Mama has searched, according to the rules, it should be handed over to Madame for the purpose." Go ahead, and explain the relationship between this thing and remind your mother to let her handle it well, don't let people with bad intentions wait for the opportunity to steal it, and when the time comes, it will inevitably harm others and yourself, and set off some unnecessary waves. ”

Cuizhu nodded, and replied in a firm tone: "Yes, the slave and maid are retired." ”

Looking at Cuizhu's figure gradually moving away, Xia Xue'er and Zhao Wanqing both sighed heavily, only Xia Qiaoyun seemed to be out of her body, her eyes were dull, and only the corners of her mouth gradually rose in a slightly weird arc.

"Huh! It's not too early," After a while, Xia Qiaoyun suddenly spoke, and the other two turned their heads to look at her in unison, waiting for the following.

As expected, after a slight pause for a few seconds, Xia Qiaoyun got up and bowed slightly to the two of them, as if saying goodbye and as if apologizing, while looking at the two of them with a light smile and saying: "I promised my aunt to go over to have lunch with her, and it is not too early to see the hour, I will leave first, and you sisters will talk slowly!"

Hearing this, Xia Xue'er's alert eyes narrowed slightly, and a dull feeling slowly appeared in her heart. But Zhao Wanqing looked puzzled. I didn't see my cousin listening to Yuxuan early in the morning, thinking that she was nowhere to be found, and I happened to meet Xia Qiaoyun outside Tingyuxuan when I went out, and the two invited them to enjoy the flowers together to pass the time, and they also invited Xia Qiaoyun to share lunch when they enjoyed the flowers, and she also responded heartily, but at this time she said that she had already made an appointment with Aunt Shen, isn't this inconsistent!

I always feel that this person is not simple, he is far and near, like an enemy and a friend. So when Xia Qiaoyun turned around and walked out of the Bishui Pavilion, he stopped him in time: "Why haven't I heard you mention this matter before?"

Looking at the two pairs of eyes staring at her, Xia Qiaoyun was a little embarrassed for a while, but she didn't mess up because of this, and quickly stabilized, after all, her mind was not as shallow as before.

She naturally knew in her heart that the first task at the moment was to get out of it quickly so that she could intercept Cuizhu, and no matter what, she had to take a look at the content of the magic prescription. With his ability to never forget, isn't it a piece of cake to write an identical recipe silently? But if that prescription really fell into the hands of Mrs. Xia and she knew the danger of zài in it, then according to Madame's precautions against herself, it would be more difficult to see it again than to ascend to the sky, let alone copy it!

This is a great opportunity to pass up!

Thinking of this, Xia Qiaoyun knew that he couldn't be entangled too much, so he laughed heartily twice, and then explained: "The fate I talked about with Miss Wanqing before, and for a while, I forgot what I promised my aunt earlier, and now I still remember that there is such a thing, fortunately, it is not too late, if I miss the appointment, my aunt will be sad!"

seems to be replying to Zhao Wanqing's words, but in fact, she looked at Xia Xue'er and said it, and the two laughs before, saying that she was open-minded were actually more like covering up, covering up the truest thoughts in her heart at this time.

But even if she concealed it without revealing any traces, Xia Xue'er already knew it. Originally, it was a game set up by himself and Cuizhu in conspiracy, and the wisher took the bait, and she really couldn't bear it if she didn't want to! It's just that I don't know what Xia Qiaoyun wants Bai Yining's anti-beauty prescription to do? Is it intended to be used on her, or is it going to deal with Bai Yining, or is it some other ulterior secret?

Glancing at the figure that disappeared behind the rockery, Xia Xue'er moved her eyes back to Xia Qiaoyun, stared at her beautiful eyes tightly, and asked as if she couldn't lie, "Is that really the case?" ”

Xia Qiaoyun was stunned for a moment, Xia Xue'er's eyes were extremely oppressive, and people couldn't help but want to surrender to them, and they were shaken for a moment. But calm down and calculate the time, Cuizhu should have been out of the garden this time, her opportunity is losing little by little with time, no matter what, when things are successful, Xia Xue'er will believe her! So he was ruthless, his face was calm, and he nodded undeniably and replied: "Naturally, I won't lie to you!" ”

Xia Xue'er opened her mouth, and finally only squeezed out one sentence: "Since this is the case, the second sister should be careful all the way." ”

Smiled helplessly. In fact, I still have expectations for Xia Qiaoyun in my heart, after all, she is the second half-sister, but she still lied to her...... When Xia Xue'er was thinking about it, Zhao Wanqing looked at Xia Qiaoyun's back and left in a hurry, frowned slightly, and muttered, "I always feel that something is not right."

"Oh?" Xia Xue'er came back to her senses, picked up the teacup but didn't drink it, just stared at the tea leaves in the cup that were stretched out under the wrapping of clear water, and she couldn't see a trace of waves on her face or even in her eyes, but asked casually: "Why do you say this?"

"Seeing that she is in such a hurry, it seems that she is going with Cuizhu......"

Xia Xue'er didn't answer, just smiled slightly, and couldn't see any emotion.

Jiangnan Zhao family name all over the world for hundreds of years, in addition to relying on the ancestral Yin virtue blessing, the successive generations of family members inherited the ancestral will, love the world, the heart of the people is also an indispensable reason. Otherwise, even if he is rich and rivals, it is impossible for him to become a royal jealous and respected being! And Zhao Wanqing, who is a member of the Zhao family, is naturally a smart woman, but she is not as bold as a northern woman and has a touch of grace and gentleness, and her good family style has cultivated her kind and tolerant quality, so she is reluctant to take many things to heart, let alone put them on the table, such as her cousin Xia Xue'er falling into the water, of course she knows who the culprit is, but she did not embarrass Xia Qiaoyun because of this, let alone say anything to deal with it.

It's just that after all, Xia Xue'er is no one else, not only her cousin, but also Xia Xing's most beloved sister. loves the house and Wu, so for the second lady of the Xia family, she still has a heart in her heart.

"As soon as Cuizhu left, she was in a hurry to leave, and she really couldn't help but make people suspicious," Zhao Wanqing analyzed with a tight head: "If this is the case, then she must be going for the prescription in Cuizhu's bag, but she is still so young that she definitely doesn't need this, and it can't be for Aunt Shen, after all, it is her biological mother, and she can't use it for her knowing the drawbacks." But what does Xia Qiaoyun want that prescription for? ”

Tilting his head to think, he suddenly seemed to think of something incredible, and suddenly looked at Xia Xue'er, his face was full of horror, and he exclaimed in a low voice: "It's you!" She's always jealous and resentful of you, and she's probably going to use it for you! It just so happens that you are taking medicine to regulate your body, and it is the easiest way to quietly change the medicine you are taking! And there is no one around you who understands medical skills, so in your eyes, the medicine prescribed by the divine doctor is no different from the anti-beauty medicine, it is just a bowl of unpalatable dark brown liquid! ”

However, although she was very excited, Xia Xue'er didn't seem to hear it, and there was no change, neither angry nor frightened, just sitting so quietly, a pair of bright eyes staring at the blue and white porcelain teacup in her hand, unfathomable and unpredictable.

Seeing this, Zhao Wanqing stretched out her hand to grab her cousin's shoulders, her eyes were full of nervousness and worry, "Did you hear me speak?" ”

"Cousin Wan, don't worry, it's okay." Xia Xue'er comforted her in turn, gently patting her slender jade hand, not only was there no worry on her face, but she was even smiling, smiling!

Zhao Wanqing was even more puzzled for a while. What the hell is my cousin thinking, it was Xia Qiaoyun who almost killed her! She understands medical skills, and she has never seen such a bold prescription except for ancient records! Not only is the use of drugs strange and weird, and he does not shy away from the mutual restraint between drugs, nor does he care about the potential toxicity of the herbs themselves, but more importantly, he has a strong dependence, just like the glamorous poppy, once he takes it, it is difficult to quit, and it is impossible to get rid of it unless he dies here!

No, Xia Qiaoyun must not be allowed to succeed!

Since her cousin didn't realize the importance of this matter, she could only tell her second cousin about it, believing that he would find a way to prevent the tragedy from happening!

However, before Zhao Wanqing stood up and left, Xia Xue'er, who seemed to be out of her body, opened her mouth and called: "Cousin Wan, where are you going?" ”

Zhao Wanqing replied helplessly and anxiously: "Go find your second brother!" ”

"Second brother?" Xia Xue'er was puzzled at first, and then as if she had guessed something, she smiled and said, "Don't you know? Today, the prince of the Pingyang Hou Mansion set up a literary banquet to invite the literati and ink writers of the world, and the second brother went to the banquet early in the morning, and he was not in the mansion at this time. ”

After hearing this, Zhao Wanqing felt a strong sense of disappointment in her heart, which hit her heart again and again, like a boulder pressing on her heart, dull and abnormal. Take a deep breath, try to find your feelings, and sit down again.

After a cup of tea, I finally couldn't hold it back, and I always felt that things were not as simple as they seemed on the surface, so I asked, "Aren't you worried at all?" ”

"Worried about what? Second brother? Xia Xue'er looked dazed, "How can I say that he is also Xiahou Ye's precious son, it will be fine, and you don't have to worry." ”

Zhao Wanqing pouted a little speechlessly, she was not worried about Xia Xing, after all, in her heart, he was a brave and mighty hero, and in fact, it was the same! The person she is really worried about at this time is Xia Xue'er, if something goes wrong with her, then Xia Xing doesn't know what will become of her! She herself will feel guilty and miserable for a lifetime.

Turning her eyes to Xia Xue'er again, she still sat quietly, sipping tea and enjoying the scenery, without any nervousness, and there was even a trace of expectation in her eyes. I really don't understand, I heard about her various methods of seeking death as early as when she was in Jiangnan, but now that it's almost a year gone, does she still want to die?

Feeling an inquiring gaze falling on her, Xia Xue'er turned her head to look for a feeling, and sure enough, it was Zhao Wanqing staring at her. When their eyes met, the two smart people already knew what each other was thinking.

"You did it on purpose?!" Although it is verified, it is extremely affirmative. Yes, this is the only way to explain the cousin's composure, it's not that she's too dull, it's just that the truth is too unexpected!

Xia Xue'er smiled slightly and replied, "If you don't give her a chance, how do you know if she is friend or foe?" ”

"How so?"

"Look at who she's using that prescription for."

"What if it is applied to you?"

"Then I'll be her Grim Reaper!"

Xia Xue'er's language was concise, but it revealed a ruthless and murderous aura. For a while, Zhao Wanqing only felt that the world had changed beyond recognition, and all the familiar things seemed to have gradually faded away and become stranger.

"Hahaha" A hearty laugh suddenly sounded in the pavilion, and then another voice said: "The little girl is really ruthless, and her style of action is quite my style!" ”
