Chapter 17: Poisoning
"I also want to ask you, what are your intentions when you asked people to come over and give me that kind of thing and let me touch her." Qin Shao unhurriedly sorted out his clothes and wiped the blood on his thin lips.
Chu Jiao was confused when she heard this, and her brows were tightly locked: "I've been in the yard all day today, who are you talking about?" ”
Qin Shao walked down and grabbed her slender wrist and pushed him to the corner of the wall: "Do you dare to do it?" If you dare to do such a thing, why don't you dare to bear it? ”
It's a shame that this woman even dared to kick him.
The two were very close again, and Chu Jiao couldn't understand him at all.
"Get out of here." Chu Jiao's tone was very bad.
The two of them simply hated each other.
"If you were doing this kind of thing in the future, it would definitely not be as simple as it is today." Qin Shao let go of her hand and disappeared from the window.
When she was left alone, she wiped her mouth fiercely.
This man doesn't think of himself as an outsider at all!
The next day, Chu Jiao's mouth was still a little red and swollen, so she had to put on a veil.
"Miss, what's wrong with you? Do you have a rash on your face? Redsleeves asked with concern.
Chu Jiao coughed lightly twice, only saying that she was not feeling well.
"By the way, Miss, when I got up just now, I heard the maids in other courtyards say that I saw the eldest lady come back in the middle of the night last night, and I don't know what to do." Red Sleeves said as he hairpinned his hair.
Chu Han didn't come back until midnight?
This made Chu Jiao have to wonder about what happened last night.
"You go out and ask what happened last night, and remember not to let anyone know." Chu Jiao said and hurriedly pushed her out.
She herself went to decoct her mother's medicine, and the jar of medicine was rattling, and what lingered in her mind was the events of the previous night.
He didn't give her any respite, and he was full of aggression all over his body.
She couldn't help blushing and hurriedly patted herself on the medicine.
The eldest lady was resting in the courtyard, and Chu Jiao hurriedly came over to deliver the medicine.
"Mother, it's cold, hurry up and drink the medicine and go back to the house." She held a hot medicine bowl in her hand, and there was a smile in her voice.
The eldest lady picked up the medicine bowl and sniffed it gently, feeling a little strange in her heart, the usual medicine is sour with a sweet taste, how can there be a bitter taste today?
But seeing that it was sent by her daughter, the eldest lady did not suspect it, and just about to drink it, she listened to the voice of the red sleeves.
"Madame! Miss! "The red sleeves had a gossipy glint on his face.
"I just inquired, Aunt Fang sent the eldest lady to the Qin Palace's mansion yesterday, but I didn't expect to be thrown out."
Chu Jiao felt that this matter was expected and unexpected.
This stupid man, do you think that she did it, and it is not good for her.
"Then the eldest lady didn't go out all day, as if she was overwhelmed with grief." Red Sleeves said with a bit of teasing.
Coincidentally, Chu Hanbian came over, she was already anxious, and she couldn't bear this kind of words.
"Is it your turn to talk more about my business?" Chu Han kicked over, and his voice was full of gunpowder.
Chu Jiao dragged the person back.
"If you don't know what you don't know and you can't do anything unless you do, and what you do is what you do, why use my excuse?" Chu Jiao's face was frank and open.
Chu Han blushed for a while, how did she know about such a private matter last night?
She didn't have time to think about it, she just felt ashamed, and she had no face to be.
"You're proud, aren't you? You think you won, don't you? I'm telling you, I'm definitely not going to give up. Chu Han was so enraged that he said with a crying voice.
Chu Jiao's face was expressionless: "Finished?" Then hurry up and don't disturb our mother and daughter. ”
She really wasn't interested in her thoughts.
Chu Han's body trembled in place, she had had enough.
Yesterday she lost all her face, but she didn't expect to be thrown out.
Still being ridiculed by this slut today.
"I, I'll fight with you!" Chu Han suddenly rushed up and was about to scratch someone.
Red Sleeves hurriedly rushed up, and the two of them twisted together.
Red Sleeves always does rough work, and her strength is still slightly greater, grabbing Chu Han's hair, she directly pushed her body onto the stone table.
There was still the eldest lady's medicine on the stone table, and this time it was good, and the bowl was broken on the ground.
Chu Han sat on the ground with messy hair, almost not crying.
However, the medicine that fell on the ground just now corroded the ground, and the corroded place emitted black smoke, which was obviously highly poisonous.
Chu Han also noticed this, and her whole body was frightened and stupid, and she froze in place.
The medicine just now was fried by Chu Jiao herself, and there was a problem here, she didn't even know it.
The scene in front of them made everyone tremble.
"Red Sleeves, you help the eldest lady back first." Chu Jiao's eyes were cold.
Red Sleeves didn't dare to speak, and helped Chu Han up, her legs were weak.
The two weren't fighting.
However, the most calm person is the eldest lady, who has been in the Prime Minister's Mansion for more than ten years, and has never seen anything pickled, this kind of thing cannot be regarded as the most disgusting, it seems that her body has improved recently, and some people can't see it.
"Mother, it's me who is not good, I didn't find out in time." Chu Jiao fell into the arms of the eldest lady, and the back of her neck was cold.
It's hard to imagine that if Chu Han hadn't come over to make trouble just now, her mother would have been...
"Good boy, you're already fine, don't worry it's going to get better." The eldest lady stroked her head gently, her eyes like water.
Chu Jiao quickly became firm, and she was bound to find this poisoner.
She didn't even notice this kind of thing, it must be that the people in the courtyard have unclean hands and feet.
In this mansion, in addition to the eldest lady and Aunt Fang, there is also Chu Qing's mother, Aunt Zhao, and Aunt Zhou, who usually walks with the eldest lady.
All three women were suspected.
As soon as Red Sleeves came back, Chu Jiao said: "You take the eldest lady back, saying that the eldest lady is seriously ill and can't get up, and then secretly hides it, so that no one can find out." ”
The news that the eldest lady suddenly died quickly spread to every corner of the mansion.
"Miss, is it useful for us to hide like this? What if no one shows up, you say? Red Sleeves whispered in a low voice.
"No, the man is poisoned. If I've heard that there's no one in the room, I'm sure I'll come and check it out, but I'm not sure I'm completely sure, so I'll see. ”
The eldest lady also clung to her, lying motionless on the collapse, and everything was calm during the day.
When it was nightfall, there was a slight knock on the door of the eldest lady's room.
Red Sleeves suddenly fixed his eyes on the location of the door, until it was confirmed that someone had really slipped in, and then several people worked together to catch the person.
It's a little maid in the eldest lady's room, but she has just arrived, and it's obvious that she's a newcomer.
