Chapter 123

The old lady smiled lightly, looked at the sky, as if falling into some kind of memory: "Princess Jing was the most beautiful woman in Ling Qi back then, and made a good pastry, no one in the whole capital can match, even the imperial kitchen of the palace is not as good as her, the young son of the famous nobles rushed to pursue, married to Queen Jing, the two husband and wife love, each other, envy others, the princess is noble, dignified, elegant, the palace is well organized, the prince is handsome and chic, mighty and extraordinary, the two are really a pair of people made in heaven." ”

Retracting his gaze, the old lady's eyes darkened: "It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, after giving birth to the son, the princess lost her health, she couldn't get pregnant anymore, and she was often sick, King Jing tried his best, but he couldn't let the princess ...... with him."

"Six years ago, the princess was seriously ill and died, King Jing was sad, seriously ill, and the prince seemed to have become another person overnight...... "Six years of illness, King Jing finally got what he wanted, went to Huangquan to reunite with the princess, and he was also happy in his heart, but he suffered from the son, and his parents died as soon as he became an adult......

"The prince of the world must be very hard to support the Jingwang Mansion alone." Gu Xiuxing's eyes showed deep sympathy.

"Who says it's not, he is the same age as Xiao Ci, but his fate is much more bitter than Xiao Ci." The old lady took a sip of tea in the cup: "The prince and the princess Jing, the king of Jing each have three or four points of resemblance, you can guess how bright and moving the princess Jing was back then......"

"The cloud cake made in the evening is comparable to Princess Jing, everyone tastes it, such a good pastry, it must not be wasted......"

Everyone was talking and laughing and eating cloud cakes, and Shen Qingwan hesitated: "Grandmother, I have been in the General's Mansion for a while, and now that your condition is better, I want to go back to the Prime Minister......'s Mansion."

The old lady's hand holding the cloud cake paused slightly, and sighed: "You have been out for a long time, it's time to go back, otherwise, the prime minister's mansion will definitely be worried, but you must come to the general's mansion often when you are free...... "The old lady is old, and he always wants to be more lively around him."

"Yes, grandmother." Shen Qingwan smiled and agreed. After dinner, Shen Qing returned to the room in the evening and ordered Xunhan and the others to pack up their things and prepare to return to the Prime Minister's Mansion early the next morning.

In the middle of the night, there was a sudden commotion in the courtyard, and Shen Qingwan was woken up and asked sleepily: "What's the matter?" ”

Xun Han hurriedly ran in, looking panicked: "Miss, no, the old lady was poisoned and vomited blood again......

"What?" Shen Qingwan was shocked in her heart, she suddenly fell asleep, put on her clothes as quickly as possible, and ran towards Anshun Hall, her eyes became deeper and deeper, it seemed that the person who was betrayed did not have a spy, and the person who poisoned him remained in the Prime Minister's Mansion......

Anshuntang was already in a mess, Imperial Physician Chen had already invited him over, and was treating him in the inner room, Gu Yunyan stood outside the door, reprimanding his subordinates with a blue face: "I have already carefully instructed you to pay attention to the food safety of the old lady, do you all take my words as wind in your ears?" ”

The subordinates knelt down in a courtyard tremblingly, "Xiangye forgives the sin, during the day, the things that the slaves and maids give to the old lady have been carefully inspected, and they can never be poisonous, except for ......"

"Except for what?" Gu Yunyan was furious, and if he had something to say, he said it directly, don't swallow it.

"It's just that the cloud cake made by the little lady has not been checked, it is made by the little lady herself, the old lady likes it very much, so the slaves and maids don't ......" The maid's voice became smaller and smaller, peeking at Gu Yunyan's face from time to time, suspecting the master, but it was a felony, but recently, they did pay attention to the old lady's diet, and all the things they ate were checked over and over again with silver needles and other poison tests, only the cloud cake was not checked......

"Shen Qingwan, the old lady treats you well, why do you want to hurt her?" Before Gu Yunyan could speak, Gu Yunfu had already preemptively questioned. "Why is the third uncle so sure that the old lady was killed by me?" Shen Qingwan is not in a hurry, she has experienced this kind of framing more than once, and she is no longer surprised.

"Among the food that the old lady eats, only the cloud cake you made has not been checked, the poison is not from you, who else can it be, I can't imagine that you are so vicious, even your own grandmother is ......"

Shen Qingwan smiled faintly: "Third uncle, you can eat indiscriminately, you can't talk nonsense, I made the cloud cake correctly, but in the afternoon, my aunt and cousin Xing also ate the cloud cake, but they were fine, which means that the cloud cake is not poisonous......"

"What's more, when the old lady was poisoned last time, I was still in the Prime Minister's Mansion, how to poison ......"

"This ...... This ......" Gu Yunfu squeaked, not knowing what to say to refute, Gu Yunting stood next to him and glared at him fiercely, it was really stupid, even a little girl couldn't say it......

Shen Qing was unforgiving: "Everything, think twice before acting, third uncle, you and I are relatives, you are anxious about your grandmother's condition, you are straightforward, I don't have to worry about things that are suspicious, but third uncle, in front of outsiders, you represent not only yourself, but also the entire Great General's Mansion, in case you also suspect other people one day, you will lose the ......face of the entire Great General's Mansion."

Gu Yun's old face flushed: "I've been taught." ”

Gu Ci, who walked out of the inner room, heard Shen Qingwan's words, and his mood suddenly improved, his two uncles did not find anything to do for him, his father and the old lady, he had already wanted to teach them a lesson, but he hadn't found a suitable opportunity yet, but he didn't expect that now, what he didn't do, Shen Qingwan did......

The lesson is almost over, and Gu Ci opened his mouth to break the deadlock: "Imperial Doctor Chen said that fortunately, it was discovered in time, and my grandmother was already fine." ”

The old lady's condition was stable, so Gu Yunyan asked Gu Yunfu and the others to go back, dismissed the people, and An Shuntang calmed down: "Imperial Doctor Chen, have you ever found out why the old lady was poisoned?" Imperial Physician Chen shook his head: "I have checked all of Anshuntang, and I have found nothing poisonous, what the old lady eats, I have also seen it, and there is no poison in it, but you should pay special attention to it, the old lady is old and weak, and he can't withstand such a toss...... "If you are inexplicably poisoned a few times like this, even if you will not be poisoned, you will be tossed to death."

"That grandmother's poison is really strange......" Shen Qing's late return to the Prime Minister's Mansion was delayed because of the old lady's poisoning again.

In order to prevent the old lady from being poisoned again, Shen Qingwan would come to Anshun Hall every day to accompany the old lady to eat, and he also secretly cared about the people in Anshun Hall.

The old lady's body became worse because of the poisoning again, the toxin was not cleared for the time being, and he only drank some porridge every day, and he couldn't even eat the vegetables.

For dinner, as usual, Luo brought porridge to serve the old lady to drink, and the maid outside the door reported: "Madam, please go back to the room if you have something to do." ”

Luo Che smiled faintly: "I'll go back after serving the old lady and drinking porridge......"

Shen Qingwan stepped forward: "Uncle, uncle is looking for you, there must be something important, you better go back first, I will take care of my grandmother." ”

The old lady smiled amiably: "Yes, you have also been busy for a day, go back first, it's good to have evening here!" ”

"Okay, I'll go back first." When the elders spoke, there was no reason not to listen, Luo handed over the porridge to Shen Qingwan, and returned to his courtyard with a smile.

The old lady glanced at the maids: "You guys go down too, I have something to say to the evening." ”

"Yes." The maids agreed, and they all withdrew, and the old lady sighed softly: "Later, it seems that I won't stop if that person doesn't kill me......"

Shen Qingwan hurriedly interrupted her: "Grandmother, don't say that, uncle, aunt, brother Qi has surrounded the General's Mansion into an iron wall, that person can't poison his grandmother anymore......"

The old lady smiled lightly, and her smile was a little desolate: "Silly boy, my body, I know in my own heart that I can't withstand the toss of this poison......"

Shen Qingwan's heart was filled with deep bitterness: we tried our best to hide it, but it turned out that our grandmother knew everything......

"Grandmother, think about everything in a good place, don't think about so many bad things, you see that the porridge is cold, I will help you sit down and drink porridge." Shen Qingwan calmed down and put the porridge away, helped the old lady up, and cushioned the pillow behind her:

A hot tear dripped from his eyes, fell on the pillow, and disappeared in an instant, but the place where the tears were dripping changed color in an instant......

Shen Qingwan was shocked: This is the finest snow satin, even if it is used for a long time, it is impossible to change color in tears, unless it ......

"Late, what's wrong?" Shen Qingwan stood behind her for a long time and did not move, and the old lady was puzzled.

Shen Qingwan straightened up, brought the pillow to the old lady, and pointed to the place that changed color: "Grandmother, look! ”

"This ......" the old lady was shocked on the spot: "The pillow is poisonous!" "No wonder they strictly control the food, clean the room every day, but they can't find the poison, it turns out that the deadly poison is not elsewhere, it is hidden in the pillow that the old lady will pillow every day.

The poison is colorless and tasteless, if it weren't for Shen Qingwan's tears dripping on it, the silver-white snow satin turned into a weird black purple, she and Lao Taijun would not have found out that it was poisonous.

"The one who assassinated me is really someone close to me and trusts." In the old lady's inner room, the beds are cleaned by the most trusted maids, and if this happens, it is naturally inseparable from them.

"Grandmother, don't be sad, the pillow just changed color, not necessarily poisonous, let's not alarm others first, tell my brother to take the pillow to Dr. Chen for examination, and then make a decision." Shen Qingwan comforted softly, the person he trusted the most betrayed him, and it would not be easy to change anyone.

The old lady didn't speak, she acquiesced to Shen Qingwan's method, and casually found a reason to invite Gu Ci to Anshun Hall, Shen Qingwan roughly described the incident, Gu Ci took the pillow solemnly, avoided the subordinates of Anshun Hall, and quietly went out of the house, and went straight to Imperial Doctor Chen's mansion.
