Chapter 158: Just Seeking the Truth

"What are you talking about?" Mo Ziyu swallowed, his breathing became heavy, "Who are you?"

This crazy Taoist did not answer Mo Ziyu's words directly, but hugged his wine gourd, fell asleep, and the medicine on the side pounced out, and he didn't care.

Mo Ziyu smelled the smell of the medicine, and could probably distinguish the medicinal materials and the amount of them, these medicinal materials were the same as those medicinal materials that Xue'er had asked someone to buy before.

Thinking of such a coincidence, this crazy man must be closely related to the affairs of the third lady.

It's just that Mrs. Yang also has something to do with this crazy man, so is this matter manipulated by the second lady behind her back or the princess?

What is the identity of this crazy man?

The madman snored, Mo Ziyu got up and said, "Let's go back." ”

"Just go back?" Qing Ling asked.

"Hmm. Mo Ziyu nodded, walked out of the firewood room, and walked a few steps before saying, "After going back, let Qing Yue invite him back to the palace, he must know a lot of things." ”

Back at Qiushui Garden, Mo Ziyu still felt faintly uneasy in his heart, and always felt that this Taoist priest was not simple, and he didn't know what his identity was.

Later, Qing Ling said that when Qing Yue went to fetch the madman, he disappeared again. It was clear that he sent someone to keep an eye on him, but the person just disappeared out of thin air.

Mo Ziyu's heart sank slightly, thinking that this matter was just the beginning.

She was more interested in the identity of this crazy man, and she didn't know what else he was capable of.

"Since he has dealings with many nobles in the capital, he will keep an eye on these people first, and see if he can find out the whereabouts of the mad man, if he is found, he will directly arrest them, don't hesitate. Mo Ziyu said.

"Hmm. ”

Tonight, because the father and son of the Yang family came, Liu Xu went to the second lady, and Mo Ziyu was also ready to go to bed early.

When she was about to fall asleep, the cuckoo asked to see her at this time, Mo Ziyu was puzzled, and she didn't know what she was doing at the moment.

"Greetings to the girl. "The cuckoo came in and saluted.

Mo Ziyu gave her a red envelope, and then asked, "It's so late, but what happened?"

The cuckoo bit her lip, her face was a little hesitant, and she thought about it again and said, "I have something I want to tell the girl, and I have been thinking about it for a long time, but I still think it should be very girly." ”

"Say it. Mo Ziyu said lightly.

"I think it might have something to do with Bailing's death. Du Juan said, took something wrapped in paper from his arms, and handed it to Mo Ziyu.

"This is?" Mo Ziyu frowned and asked, opening the paper, there was some white powder inside, she sniffed it, there was something aphrodisiac in it.

"This is the thing of Bailing before, for a while she was often in a state of her mind, holding a white bottle and looking at it, this bottle was given to her by Yun'er before. One day, I was curious, and when Bailing was not paying attention, I secretly poured out some of the powder in this bottle. Then the lark was killed, and then I found that the little bottle was gone. "I don't know whether I should tell anyone about it, but lately I have often dreamed of Bailing that she died unjustly, and I really don't have peace in my heart, so I decided to tell the girl about it." ”

"I see. Mo Ziyu sniffed the white powder carefully, Zilu?

There seems to be purple dew in this?

In the previous miscarriage of the third lady, the imperial doctor diagnosed that it was a musk-like effect caused by the mixture of purple dew and wind kite. How can there be purple dew in this?

These *** are given to Bailing by Yun'er, and Yun'er is the princess's person, is this purple dew the princess's thing?

No wonder Yun'er wants to kill people, if people know that the princess is related to Zilu, it may remind people of the miscarriage of the third lady.

"I see. Mo Ziyu said, "You go back to rest first, I know what's going on with this matter." Don't talk about it to anyone, remember who you can!"

Mo Ziyu's expression was very serious, and Du Juan hurriedly nodded: "I won't say anything about this matter." ”

The cuckoo retreated, Mo Ziyu pondered for a moment with the white powder in my hand, and every incident can prove that this matter was done by the princess, killing two birds with one stone.

It's just that it's the Spring Festival right now, I'm afraid that King Qi won't want this matter to be embarrassed now, and I'll talk about it in two days.

The first day of the Lunar New Year has passed, but this year has not passed so easily, since the second day of the new year, whether it is a visit to the Qi Wangfu, or the people of the Qi Wangfu to give New Year's greetings to others, in short, they are so busy that their feet stop, but they are more tired than usual.

Liu Xu also has a few days of rest, but it is not easy to socialize every day.

How lively it is outside, how deserted Qiongfang Courtyard is.

The third lady's maiden family was moved out of the capital, and now she is confined to the Qiongfang courtyard, so the people are warm and cold, the world is cold, when she was favored in the past, which of the palace did not scold her? Now that she has lost power, she is humiliated one by one, this charcoal fire is not the silver charcoal of the past, make some inferior fools to fool her, the maids are full of complaints, she is not dead, she will not listen to the call, is it because she is sure that she must not turn over?

"Listen, there's the sound of firecrackers outside, it's so lively!" the third lady looked outside in a daze and whispered.

"Ma'am, eat. Qi'er entered with the food, "It's snowing outside, what's there to see, eat the food first, don't starve." ”

The third lady glanced at the food and smiled self-deprecatingly: "They use these things to feed me?"

Qi'er sighed: "One by one, they are red and white, taking advantage of the New Year, eating wine and making money." Leave them alone, girl, eat the things, take care of your body, and when the prince returns your justice, it's not too late to teach them a lesson!"

The third lady touched her lower abdomen and was stunned: "I really didn't conceive a child? I really feel that it exists, how can it be fake? How can it be fake!"

Her expression became a little excited, and she said bitterly: "They hurt me! Why did they do that! Why!"

"Madam, evil has evil rewards, don't be angry with your body for them, it's not worth it. Qi'er persuaded, "The most important thing you should do now is to cultivate your body well, and then wait for the day when you will make a comeback!"

The third lady frowned, and her expression was sad: "It's been so long, the prince hasn't come to see me for a day, is he tired of me? Does he think that everything is done by me? Is he giving up on me!"

She grabbed Qi'er's arm with some trepidation, and said uneasily: "Now that my family is not in the capital, if even the prince gives up on me, what should I do?

Qi'er sighed: "It's going to get better, it's going to get better, don't be afraid, madam, you and the prince are childhood sweethearts, and if you have a relationship, the prince won't let down the lady!"

Qiongfang Courtyard is sad, but Wuling Courtyard is peaceful.

The second lady's family came, and Mrs. Yang brought the young lady to visit.

The second lady looked at her sister-in-law's belly enviously and said, "It's about to give birth, right?"

"yes. The young lady stroked her belly, "Just next month." ”

"That sister-in-law should take good care!" the second lady smiled, "I really don't know if it's a boy or a girl." ”

"It must be a fat boy. Mrs. Yang said, "My eyes are poisonous, and I will never look away." ”

"Xianggong said, the girls and boys are good, he likes them all. The young lady lowered her eyes and smiled.

The three of them talked about the affairs of the family together for a while, and Mrs. Yang asked, "When does King Qi plan to restore your status as a side concubine?"

"I don't know. Speaking of this, the second lady was a little irritable, "Although the third lady has been grounded, the result of this matter has not come out for a long time. I must have been framed, and I thought that the prince knew it in his heart, but he never mentioned this matter, nor did he talk about how to compensate me. ”

"Don't worry, it's still the New Year, King Qi doesn't want to make everyone's face look bad at this time, it's normal, you wait, no matter what, as long as it has nothing to do with you, then you are the victim, and if King Qi doesn't mention how to compensate you, your father and brother won't follow!" Mrs. Yang sneered, "Whether it is the princess or the third lady, this matter will make them pay!"

"Hmm. The second lady nodded, "My father and brother are now in the middle of the court, and the prince also trusts them very much, if I can have a son and a half daughter, my position in the Qi Palace's Mansion can be regarded as stable." ”

"You can think about raising the son of the world under your knees. Mrs. Yang's face sank and said.

"This matter is not proper, his biological mother is living well, what am I! The prince will not be willing, didn't I tell you about this matter?" the second lady said impatiently.

"As long as that Concubine Su is gone, isn't everything okay?" Madam Yang smiled coldly, "As long as you are willing, we will give you ideas on this matter." ”

"Killing the mother and taking the child?" the second lady's face changed, "Let me think about it." ”

Mrs. Yang patted her on the shoulder: "Child, with your father and mother, you don't have to be afraid of anything!"

She held her daughter in her arms: "When you were born, we told you your fortune, and you will be the mother of the world in the future." You will be the most honorable woman in the world!"

Autumn Water Garden.

"Lord Wang, are you okay?" Mo Ziyu sat motionless for almost half an hour, "My body is almost stiff!"

"Don't move, it's fast!" Liu Xu glanced at Mo Ziyu carefully, the pen in his hand fell quickly, and a lifelike figure Danqing was completed, "I haven't painted for a long time, and my hand is a little raw." ”

Mo Ziyu got up, walked over and took a look: "It's too similar, the prince's skill has not diminished!"

"Hibiscus is not as good as beauty makeup, and the water hall is fragrant with emerald pearls. Liu Xu mentioned another poem, "It's not that the king's paintings are good, it's that the beauties are good!"

"When did the prince learn such sweet words?" Mo Ziyu peeled an orange with a smile and stuffed a petal into Liu Xu's mouth, "The concubine is a little unaccustomed, is it still King Qi in front of you?"

Liu Xu put down his paintbrush and walked to the stove and sat down: "In the early years, this king was also a wanderer who didn't have a proper mouth, and later in the army, he was used to seeing the bloody battlefield, so he didn't like to laugh very much, and in recent years, he has gradually become accustomed to being moody." ”

Mo Ziyu followed, pursed his lips, and asked, "Lord Wang, what are you going to do about the matter of the third lady?"

"What about this...... Liu Xu was silent for a moment, "What should I do, just do it." ”

"In this matter, the second lady was wronged, and the third lady was also tortured, in the final analysis, you also have an unshirkable responsibility. Mo Ziyu said, "I told the prince at the beginning, and the prince said that the truth is not important, but now, the truth is still not important?"

"Are you teaching this king a lesson?" Liu Xu glanced at Mo Ziyu, but he didn't look very angry, "Is this king being too kind to you recently and giving you courage?"

"The prince said before that rewards and punishments should be clear. Because of this incident, some people were injured, some people suffered, and some people died, although this matter has nothing to do with the concubine, the concubine can stay out of the matter, but the concubine still wants to ask for the truth. Mo Ziyu said, "However, the prince is the head of the family, and in the final analysis, it is the prince who has the final say." ”

"This king has just said, what should I do, what should I do?" Liu Xu said, "It's time for an end." ”

Mo Ziyu walked over, squatted in front of Liu Xu, and put his head on his lap: "The concubine believes in the prince." ”

While the two were talking, Liu Changqing's voice came from outside: "Mrs. Ning, Mrs. Ning!"

When he entered, he saw that Liu Xu was also there, and hurriedly saluted: "My father is also here, I have seen my father!"

"What kind of system is it that you are yelling at!" Liu Xu taught, "What are you calling Mrs. Ning for?"

"That's the case!" Liu Changqing looked excited, "When we chatted with Mrs. Ning two days ago, we talked about how good it would be if people could fly in the sky. I thought about it and thought it was possible!"

"The stinky boy is whimsical again, with these kung fu nonsense, it is better to practice the boxing method I taught you a few more times. Liu Xu taught, "This king knows that your article has improved a lot, and Mr. Li has praised you a lot, but your fists and feet are still a little hot, our Liu family, Wen'an Bang Wu Dingguo, both civil and military must be complete, and you must not slack off!"

"Got it, father!" Liu Changqing said listlessly.

"Teach children when not to do it, it has to be during the Chinese New Year. Mo Ziyu wrinkled his nose at Liu Xu, "Shizi, tell me, how can people fly in the sky?"

"Birds can fly because they have wings, but people can't fly because they don't have wings. Liu Changqing regained his spirits, "If people have wings, wouldn't they be able to fly?"

"How can a man have wings?"

"Kite, make a big kite, carry it on your back, as long as there is wind, people can fly in the sky. Liu Changqing raised his eyebrows and said, "I will definitely be able to do this!"
