Chapter 163: Foggy
However, even so, there is still a question she has not figured out.
She remembered that during the time when Shuang'er was in bed, once when she entered the palace to deliver medicine for the queen of heaven, Qiao Yu Shuning was sent out of the house by her to run errands, so how was the 'purple carrotone' in the medicine added this time?
From the analysis of the Queen Mother's pulse, she took 'Purple Vine' and 'Sufang Flower' continuously, and the time was not interrupted.
It seems that she still has to sort it out, perhaps, there is something she missed in the middle.
……
Before going out, Shuang'er was still not worried about her condition, and tried to persuade her not to go, and to leave something to her to do. Although she trusts Shuang'er very much, there are some medicines that Shuang'er doesn't know, and even if she gives her a prescription, it will be difficult for her to find it.
Inevitably delaying time, Shen Yunxi decided to go by himself.
Seeing this, Shuang'er had to compromise. Later, she told her that if she was uncomfortable, she must tell her.
After Shen Yunxi smiled and agreed, Shuang'er came out of Broken Yuxuan with her.
It's just that at the gate of the palace, they met a person, and this person made Shen Yunxi have another suspect against the person who poisoned the queen mother's medicinal soup.
"Yanan, are you going out of the house too?" Shuang'er let go of Shen Yunxi's hand and ran towards the purple-clothed girl who was walking up the steps.
Hearing Shuang'er's voice, Yanan stopped, turned around, and said to Shuang'er with a light smile: "Hmm." Master Ji in the kitchen said that there were fewer green onions purchased this morning, and I asked me to make up for some at the market. ”
"Oh." Shuang'er nodded and said, "Then let's go together." ”
"Okay." Yanan responded with a smile, but seeing Shuang'er's empty hands, she asked strangely, "However, what are you going to do when you leave the house?" ”
"I'll accompany the young lady out to buy some medicinal herbs." Shuang'er turned her head to look at Shen Yunxi, who had already walked to their side, and said.
"Princess?!" Yanan exclaimed. Her dark pupils narrowed, and she looked at Shen Yunxi in dismay, a touch of complexity and surprise flashed in her eyes, but she instantly returned to normal.
Shen Yunxi looked at Yanan lightly and took in her expression.
Yanan, she remembers. She was the maid beside Yu Die, and when she went to Yingyue Pavilion to inquire about Yu Die's murder of Ning Meng that day, she had seen her and was very loyal.
However, it is too foolish. In order to beg for mercy for Yu Die, Feng Qingchen ordered someone to drag him out of the mouth and slap his mouth.
Unexpectedly, after the butterfly fell, she went to the kitchen to do things.
"The slave Yanan has seen the princess." Yanan fell to his knees with a plop and said with a flustered expression.
Shen Yunxi glanced at her lightly, but didn't say anything, only said to Shuang'er: "Let's go." ”
"Miss, Yanan hasn't gotten up yet." Shuang'er stopped in place, looked at Yanan who was kneeling on the ground and said.
Shen Yunxi turned her eyes to look at Yanan again, frowning slightly, in her impression, Yanan was not such a timid person. On that day in Yingyue Pavilion, she even dared to refute Feng Qingchen's words, but now she was so frightened of her, which made her feel strange.
However, maybe she thought too much. Maybe she's like this because she doesn't have the protection of a butterfly.
"Get up." Shen Yunxi opened his mouth and said.
"Princess Xie." Yanan kowtowed and thanked her, Shuang'er walked over, helped her up and said, "Get up quickly." ”
"Shuang'er, it's time for us to go." Shen Yunxi said softly to Shuang'er.
"Miss, I already promised to be with Yanan just now. Would it be okay for Miss to let her come with me? Shuang'er returned to Shen Yunxi's side and begged Shen Yunxi.
Shen Yunxi pursed the corners of her lips, looked at Yanan who didn't say no, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and said, "We don't go the same way, she is going to buy green onions, and we are going to buy medicinal herbs." The meaning between the words was already clear, she would not be with Yanan.
"But ......"
"Shuang'er, don't do it anymore, the princess is right, we really don't go the same way, you can go with the princess. Besides, I'm used to going out alone. Shuang'er was about to refute, but Yanan intercepted her words, and her words and expressions were lonely.
Shen Yunxi frowned, didn't say a word, turned around and walked outside the mansion.
Shuang'er looked at Shen Yunxi's departing back and said to Yanan, "Then I'll leave." ”
After Yanan nodded, she hurriedly chased after Shen Yunxi.
Out of the palace, Shen Yunxi did not take a carriage, but walked towards the medicinal herb market on foot. On the way, Shuang'er took Shen Yunxi's hand and asked, "Miss, you don't seem to like Yanan?" For what? Is it because of the Feather Butterfly Girl? ”
Shen Yunxi turned his head to look at Shuang'er and said, "No." After speaking, she continued to walk forward, but, after walking a few steps, she asked Shuang'er again: "It's you, when did you have such a good relationship with her?!" ”
Shuang'er said: "Some time ago, when I walked by the small lake, I saw Yanan sitting alone in the rockery crying, I wanted to leave directly, but before I went far, I saw two other maids in the house pointing at her and scolding, I couldn't get used to it, so I stepped forward to train those two." Later, I learned that since the accident of the Feather Butterfly girl, Yanan has suffered a lot of white eyes in the palace. So since then, we've been close. ”
"Why didn't you mention it?" Shen Yunxi asked strangely.
Hearing this, Shuang'er stopped, looked at Shen Yunxi, and stopped talking.
"I don't know what Lu Dao said?"
Shuang'er shook her head and said, "No. Then, with a deep sigh, he said, "Miss, I'll tell you." It's Yanan, it's she who won't let me tell you. She said that because of the matter of the Feather Butterfly girl, you have a prejudice against her. I said that Miss is not such a person, but Yanan insisted, so I agreed to her after the last day. …… Actually, there is another thing that the young lady doesn't know. ”
"What's the matter?" Shen Yunxi asked lightly.
"Actually, during this time, Yanan has sent meals to Broken Yuxuan." Shuang'er seemed to know that something was wrong, so she didn't tell Shen Yunxi for the first time, and lowered her head after speaking.
Shen Yunxi suddenly frowned, and asked urgently, "How long has it been?" ”
"It's been half a month." Shuang'er looked up and replied, but as if she had thought of something, she immediately changed her words: "Wrong, except for the few days when the young lady is away, it will be about ten days." ”
Shen Yunxi's brows furrowed even deeper, and he said, "Does she come every day, or every other day?" ”
"Every other day?" Shuang'er looked at Shen Yunxi's frowning appearance, and asked strangely, "Miss, is there anything wrong with this?" ”
Shen Yunxi looked at her worried appearance, shook his head, and said, "It's nothing, just ask." ”
Although he said this, he said it in his heart, but in his heart it was a different scene.
If the Queen Mother hadn't had an accident, Shuang'er's words would not have been a problem for Yanan at all. But right now, the Queen Mother is poisoned, and it coincides with the time when Yanan enters and exits Broken Yuxuan, and what is even more outrageous is that she even sends food to Broken Yuxuan at the same time as when she enters the palace, both once every two days.
Moreover, she also cautiously instructed Shuang'er not to tell her about her comings and goings with Broken Yuxuan.
This had to make Shen Yunxi suspicious of Yanan.
On the surface, she didn't have a reason to hurt her, but if this matter involved Feather Butterfly, it would be impossible to say.
Since leaving Yingyue Pavilion that day, she hadn't paid attention to Yudie's affairs anymore, and at that time, for her, she just had to find Ning Meng's murderer.
But now it seems that she may have suspected the wrong person in the first place.
She didn't tell Shuang'er about these things, first, because she said that she couldn't help at all, and second, it just made her worry.
However, when she added 'Su Fang Flower' to the Queen Mother's medicine, she only happened to mention it once in front of Shuang'er and the three of them. Thinking of this, Shen Yunxi turned his head to Shuang'er and asked, "Shuang'er, have you told anyone else about me adding 'Su Fang Flower' to the Empress Dowager's medicine?" ”
"No. I don't know what kind of medicine it is. Shuang'er shook his head.
"What about Qiaoyu and Shuning? But I heard them tell others. ”
"No, they don't know what it is. At that time, when you talked about it, they all said it, but the young lady was thinking about the queen mother's illness at that time and didn't hear it. ”
Shen Yunxi clenched her fists, it seemed that things were much more complicated than she had thought before.
"Miss, what are you asking for? Is something wrong? Shuang'er asked worriedly.
Shen Yunxi came back to his senses, retracted the expression just now, and said casually: "It's nothing." After a pause, she said again: "You don't know anything about Yanan, if Yanan asks you later." ”
"Oh." Shuang'er nodded.
Although she was a little suspicious of this in her heart, but after thinking about it, maybe it was to not increase Yanan's psychological burden, so Shen Yunxi would tell her like this.
But, in fact, the idea in Shen Yunxi's heart was that he didn't want to startle the snake. It's best if this matter has nothing to do with her, if it is involved, then she will not let her go.
The so-called: self-inflicted, do not live. When the time comes, don't blame her for being too ruthless.
……
Then, the two didn't talk about Yanan all the way, and went straight to their destination.
After walking around the major pharmacies in the east of the city, she didn't find the medicinal materials she wanted, and finally bought them from a medicine farmer on the side of the road.
After paying, the two turned and walked back.
However, before he had gone far, Shuang'er suddenly saw Yanan's figure in the crowd: "Hey, miss, isn't that Yanan?" Didn't she buy green onions? Why did you come here, there are all medicine farmers here, and there are no onions to sell! ”
Shen Yunxi looked in the direction that Shuang'er pointed, and sure enough, she saw Yanan not far ahead, she was squatting in front of a medicine farmer's stall with a vegetable basket in her hand, picking up a medicinal herb in one hand, and looking up to ask the medicine farmer.
Looking at it like this, it seems that I want to buy some medicinal herbs.
Shuang'er looked at her strangely, then turned to Shen Yunxi and said, "Miss, I'll go over for a while." ”
"Okay, there you go." Shen Yunxi nodded and responded.
After saying that, Shuang'er ran towards Yanan in small steps.
Looking at Yanan's thin back over there, Shen Yunxi felt that it was no coincidence that he met her here.
Perhaps, this time she was really wrong. mistakenly regarded Qiaoyu Shuning as the murderer of the queen mother this time.
However, if this is the case, she really has to think about it, and she has to think about how she knew that Lu Dao added 'Su Fang Flower' to this medicine.
