Chapter 5: The Truth Revealed

Jiang Liyue sat in front of the mirror, took off the hairpin on her head and took the letter from Xiao Tao's hand.

She opened the letter, and the handwriting inside was the same as back then, inviting her to go horseback riding outside the city two days later, that is, on that occasion, her innocence was completely destroyed by Li Changlu.

She smiled and burned the letter directly above the candle flame.

"County Lord, Gongzi Qin really has a deep affection for you, even if he knows about your marriage to the Mu family, he is still so concerned, I don't know how sad I feel at this time."

Jiang Liyue had to admit that Xiao Tao's mouth was true and said that in the previous life, Xiao Tao kept praising Qin Yinghan in her ear, making her think that Qin Yinghan was also sincere to her, so she would make a desperate bet in the end.

This Shuguifei is also really good at picking people, and Xiao Tao is also a heartfelt good dog.

"Then you have time to tell Qin Gongzi that I will go to the appointment truthfully."

How could she miss such a great opportunity?

When Xiao Tao heard this, she lowered her head and floated a triumphant smile, and answered "yes".

The marriage was scheduled for the second day of the next month, and seeing that there was only less than a month, the people of the entire palace were also busy.

Princess Duan was preparing for the dowry in the past two days, and took Jiang Liyue to several garment workshops to see the style of the wedding dress, which was really busy.

Jiang Liyue looked at Lin's busy and happy face, and felt relieved in her heart.

The previous mother's concubine was seriously ill when she married into the Li Mansion, she has been locked in the room, and she has never seen her mother at the moment of marriage.

After lunch, Xiao Tao entered the house with a bowl of sour plum soup.

"County Lord, today you and Qin Gongzi made an appointment to go horseback riding outside the city, it will be a little hot in the afternoon, so it will be more comfortable to drink a bowl of sour plum soup first."

Xiao Tao placed the sour plum soup in front of Jiang Liyue, she raised her hand slightly to wipe the cold sweat on her forehead, with a hint of panic in her eyes, staring at the bowl of sour plum soup on the table with a little nervousness.

Jiang Liyue was looking at the dowry list that Lin had brought in the morning, and when she raised her eyes, she saw the panic in Xiao Tao's eyes.

She hooked her lips and smiled, and saw the bowl of sour plum soup on the table again, and the memories of the previous life reappeared.

It was precisely because of drinking this bowl of sour plum soup that she felt weak after getting into the carriage, and her consciousness gradually became unclear, and she didn't know how she was ruined by Li Changlu's innocence in the end, all of this depends on Xiao Tao's credit.

"Xiao Tao, you have been serving me for many years, I was thinking, in the past two years, I will find you a good family, give you a dowry, and let you go back to your hometown to live, but I didn't expect your heart to be higher than the sky, and you are bent on climbing high branches, and I can't tolerate you in the palace."

Jiang Liyue's words sounded like chatter, she picked up the tea next to her and took a sip casually.

Xiao Tao was shocked when she heard this, her face was nervous and puzzled, and she was also beating a drum in her heart, Jiang Liyue's words clearly meant something else, could it be that she found something?

"Slave... The slave and maid are dedicated to serving the county lord, how can they think of climbing high branches, what does the county lord mean by this..."

Xiao Tao was nervous, and her voice couldn't help but tremble, even if she tried her best to hide the panic in her eyes, it was still visible at a glance.

Jiang Liyue looked at Xiao Tao like this, it was really ridiculous, she had said it so clearly, this girl was still pretending to be stupid.

"Since you said that you will serve me wholeheartedly, then I will treat you well, the afternoon is indeed hot, you and I will inevitably work hard to go out, this bowl of sour plum soup will be rewarded for you to drink."

Jiang Liyue looked at the expression on Xiao Tao's face, Xiao Tao's face instantly darkened when she heard this, and her body trembled a little more than just now.

"Slave... Slaves and maids dare not use them, and how dare slaves and maids use the things of their masters. ”

Xiao Tao's voice became smaller and smaller, and the weakness on her face could not be concealed at all.

Jiang Liyue smiled, looked at her and continued: "If you don't dare to use it, then I will only use it in another way, Spruce!"

Spruce stepped in from outside the door when she heard the voice, she frowned slightly and looked at Xiao Tao, who was standing on the side and trembling a little, shook her head helplessly, and walked towards Jiang Liyue, and behind her, there were two people from the house.

"County Lord, according to your orders, I found this in Xiao Tao's house."

Spruce handed over a packet of medicinal powder, and when Xiao Tao saw the packet, her body instantly softened and fell to the ground.

How did Jiang Liyue know! She felt that she had done everything properly, as long as she helped Qin Yinghan and Concubine Shu to do this, she could enter the palace and become the big palace maid next to the concubine, which was a matter of flattery for many people.

She wanted to secretly destroy this package of medicinal powder at night, but how could it be found by Spruce! Don't......

Xiao Tao looked at the medicine powder that had been received from Jiang Liyue's hand with disbelief, Jiang Liyue opened it and put it on the tip of her nose to smell it, and then looked at Xiao Tao, who had not yet recovered from her fear.

"Tell me, what is this? And who told you to do this? ”

Hearing Jiang Liyue's slightly majestic tone, Xiao Tao also came back to her senses instantly, no, she couldn't say it, if she said it, even if Concubine Shu couldn't help her, she would threaten her family!

"The slave doesn't know, the county master, the slave has been serving you for many years! You have to believe in the slave maid, this thing slave and maid don't know what it is! ”

Xiao Tao seemed to be too depressed, her voice became hoarse, and she kept kowtowing on the ground while crying.
