"It should be that the pot of meat sent to Bai Xiao this morning was poisoned." Qingyang said this, and his face couldn't be colder.
Who is it that has to get along with a tiger?
Could it be someone who was once hurt by Hakuyo?
If that's the case, it's too big......
Jiang Ying was shocked, and hurriedly glanced in the direction of Bai Xiao, and muttered, "Fortunately, it doesn't want to eat fatty meat, so I went to the kitchen to make another ...... for it."
However, it seems that it is a little unfair to the two family members who died in place of Bai Xiao......
It can be seen that it is not okay to be too greedy.
Jiang Ying twisted her eyebrows and said, "Who wants to harm Bai Xiao?" β
"I'll deal with this matter, you take a good look at Bai Xiao here, and I'll go to the kitchen."
"Okay." Jiang Ying nodded, and watched Qingyang leave the Cloud Courtyard quickly.
Looking back at Bai Xiao who was rolling around on the grass, Jiang Ying sighed.
It's really young and unscrupulous.
After this incident, all the people in the Liyuan were banned by Qingyang and were not allowed to go out.
Although most people still don't know what happened, for a while, there is still a lot of panic.
Han Chengji will not come back until tomorrow, although she is a big girl, she is just a maid, all she can do is to control the situation first, and the rest will have to wait for Han Chengji to come back before making a decision.
I don't know who leaked the news, and the matter actually reached the ears of the eldest lady Qu.
It was noon, and Qu personally brought the steward Fan Jiu to ask Liyuan.
When Qingyang and Qingshu heard this, they hurriedly welcomed people to the main hall.
"I heard that two people died in the courtyard, but is it true?" Qu asked in a flat voice, his tone as flat as if two ants had died.
"Mrs. Hui, exactly." Qingyang replied with his head down.
"The old man and the eldest young master went to Mingguang Temple to pray for blessings, and asked if something like this happened in Liyuan, why didn't they send someone to inform me?" Qu's tone was still so flat, but it made Qingyang shudder unconsciously.
After straightening his expression, Qingyang said with a smile: "Mrs. Hui, Heng Zhu is just two low-level people, plus the matter has not been investigated clearly, the slave maid did not dare to disturb the eldest lady." β
That being said, the biggest reason why she let people hide the news was that she wanted to hide the Qu family before Han Chengji came back.
The most taboo thing for the eldest young master is that the eldest lady intervenes to ask about Liyuan, which the four big girls know very well.
Unexpectedly, it finally reached Qu's ears.
"Yes." Qu Shi smiled coldly, and then said: "But since the matter is in the courtyard of the eldest young master, I know about it again, and I can't ignore it, otherwise if the master learns about it after he comes back, I'm afraid that he will be unhappy again-you tell me the general story of the matter." β
"Yes......" When Qingyang heard this, he knew that he couldn't stop it.
I had to tell Qu Shi as briefly as possible.
"So, the problem is with the white night's food?" A flash of thought flashed between Qu's eyebrows.
Fan Jiu answered beside him, "Big lady, this matter must be going for Bai Xiao!" β
The people in the room rolled their eyes when they heard thisβisn't this nonsense! The blind can see it, okay?
Fan Jiu regretted it after saying it, and coughed twice in embarrassment.
"All the subordinates who handle the white night meal will call over." Qu's work has always been neat.
Is this to be interrogated in person?
Qing Shu quietly pouted on the side, where does the eldest lady usually pay attention to these things, doesn't she want to show how much she values the eldest young master in front of her subordinates?
I usually can't find a chance, but now that the eldest young master is not in the mansion, she can be regarded as having a chance......
But after the eldest young master came back, he should be unhappy again.
Qingyang hesitated for a moment when he heard this, and had to respond with a "yes".
Now that the eldest lady has opened her mouth, she, as a subordinate, is not qualified to talk much.
After a short time, the three servants who were in charge of Bai Xiao's food were brought up.
"I've seen the eldest lady...... three obese men stepped forward to salute, all of them frightened.
"The pot of meat that was going to be fed to the white night this morning, but you made it?" Qu took the teacup handed by the maid and didn't look at the three of them.
The three of them knelt on the spot and did not dare to get up, trembling their voices.
"That pot of meat was poisoned, and it must have nothing to do with the three of you."
Qu's resolute voice made the three of them so frightened that the blood on their faces faded.
They know the way this big lady acts!
Although it doesn't seem to have anything to do with being ruthless, but under this plain face, there is a cold and hard temperament that no one can refute-
"Big lady, the slave is wronged! The minion has been in charge of Bai Xiao's food for three years, and he has never been bad! β
"The minion dares to use a head to guarantee this matter, it really has nothing to do with the minion!"
"Please also ask the eldest lady to be clear!"
The three of them kowtowed and shouted grievances, their voices frightened.
In a moment, the whole marble floor tile in front of him was red.
Qu Shiyun glanced at the three people who kept shouting grievances, and then a little doubt flashed between his eyebrows, and asked Qingyang: "I remember, but there is a little girl who is in charge of Bai Xiao's diet and daily life?" β
Qingyang's eyes changed color, and then responded: "Exactly." β
"Then why didn't you invite her along?"
Qingyang was silent for a moment, and then said, "The slave maid thinks that since this pot of poisonous meat was stopped by her, it should have nothing to do with this matter. β
"Oh?" Qu looked at Qingyang with a smile, "I don't think so, this pot of poisonous meat may not necessarily be going for Bai Xiao, right?"
"Big lady, it's even more unlikely that it has anything to do with Sakura!" Qing Shu was anxious, and when he heard Qu's suspicion of Jiang Ying, he hurriedly stood up and argued.
Qu Shi glanced at her coldly, "Isn't it true that the eldest young master usually teaches you to be so ignorant of the rules?" β
Qing Shu shrunk his neck, and the next moment, he straightened his waist even more.
No wonder the eldest young master doesn't like the eldest lady!
This is what they asked Liyuan, so she doesn't need to take care of it!
Qing Yang sighed helplessly, stepped forward and pulled Qing Shu back, while asking people to call Jiang Ying over.
"Sister Qingyang!" Qing Shu looked at Qing Yang in disbelief.
saw Qingyang slowly shake her head at her.
Qing Shu has always believed in Qing Yang's words, and he also knows that he can't offend the eldest lady openly, so he can only bite his lower lip tightly and stand in place and frown.
Soon, Jiang Ying was brought over.
As soon as he saw her, one of the servants kneeling on the ground with dark spots on his face said, "There was no problem at all before that pot of meat was sent out, it must have been her, she must have done it!" β
After hearing this, Jiang Ying, who came for the first time, said that she was not calm.
There is no evidence and it is all imagination, is it really appropriate to identify her like this?
The remaining two people bowed their heads and did not speak.
After all, without evidence, you can't just talk nonsense and slander others in order to excuse yourself.
Jiang Ying ignored the servant's words, stepped forward to salute the Qu family, and said softly: "Slave Jiang Ying, I have seen the eldest lady." β
Qu's gaze stayed on Jiang Ying for a moment, and then asked, "Did you know about the poisonous thing in that pot of meat in advance?" β
"The slave doesn't know." Jiang Ying looked ahead without squinting.
"You don't know, why don't you let Bai Xiao eat that pot of meat." Qu quietly observed Jiang Ying's face.
"Bai Xiaochen doesn't like to eat fatty meat in the morning." Jiang Ying said truthfully, "Yesterday, the slave maid went to work because of something in the future, and I heard that Bai Xiao didn't eat all day, but this morning the people in the kitchen brought such a big pot of fat meat, and I think I know that Bai Xiao won't eat it-"
"Bai Xiao has always eaten like this before!" One of the servants kneeling on the ground glared at Jiang Ying.
"But in recent months, Bai Xiaochen has been eating light stewed chicken." Jiang Ying looked at the three of them, her face full of 'stop quibbling, you are just lazy'.
The three of them were choked to death and silently swallowed a mouthful of blood.
The corners of Qu's eyes twitched.
Who is this little girl? At this juncture, her attention is still on the fact that others are lazy and don't serve Bai Xiao?
This is really not the point of this interrogation, okay!
Qingyang was on the side, also holding a black line on his face.
How does she think that no matter what it is, as long as it is related to this goods, the trend of things will always become more and more crooked......
"You mean, you think this pot of meat is too greasy, so you didn't let Bai Xiao eat it?" Qu looked at Jiang Ying, and his eyes seemed to say, don't talk nonsense, where are tigers who don't like to eat greasy.
Jiang Ying's eyes were colored.
Qing Shu didn't feel anything yet, but Qing Yang was aware of the crisis hidden in this sentence.
Why do you think that the eldest lady's words seem to be playing a trick on Ah Ying?
If she says yes, then what awaits her next will be that this girl is clearly lying, really suspicious and something like that?
Suddenly looked at Jiang Ying, wanting to give her a look, but saw that Jiang Ying's eyes were still on the marble floor tiles in front.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Ying replied: "Mrs. Hui, it's not that the slave didn't let Bai Xiao eat, but that Bai Xiao himself didn't want to eat." β
Qingyang breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at Jiang Ying's eyes, he couldn't help but have a slight change.
Usually look at this girl is not very smart, but what is commendable is that at any time there seems to be no panic, only if you are not flustered, can you make the most accurate response, once you mess up, you will make mistakes everywhere.
Sister Qingyang, are you sure that what you want to express is that you are not in danger, not ...... Is the nerve sluggish?
In fact, Jiang Ying didn't feel too scared at the time, but only realized it afterwards, but it was often used to eat and suppress the shock, so this hindsight is not worth mentioning......
Qu secretly tightened the fingers in his sleeve.
What a watertight answer.
But she didn't have that much time to spend with these people.
She's just coming forward to make a statement.
"This matter must have nothing to do with you, since you each have a statement to excuse yourself, then-" Qu looked at Jiang Ying and the three servants, and said, "Steward Fan, take people down, and interrogate them carefully." βR1152
