She squinted her eyes and glanced at Cui'e, who looked a little crazy, listened to her all kinds of nonsense, and turned sideways and instructed Xiu Gu: "Wake her up and take her back." ”

A basin of cold water poured Cui'e thoroughly from top to bottom, she shivered suddenly, looked at Dou Qing'e's eyes suddenly lit up, and suddenly said to Dou Qing'e while pulling and talking: "Madam, the slave maid saw Aunt He, she asked the slave and maid a lot of questions, and she was ...... weird." ”

"Okay, this maid was restless on duty yesterday, and secretly drank my pear blossom brew, and now she is drunk. Xiugu! Drag her back. Dou Qing'e tried her best to hide something, Cui'e has been following her for a long time, she has always been cautious in her words and deeds, but now she is so crazy, it would be good if she was really crazy, but listening to her muttering all the time, several times involved the secret matter of six years ago, Dou Qing'e firmly believes that this time, someone must have stabbed her in the back, as for who is this person......

"Mother, what is she doing?" Qin Yunuan saw the crowd of people here from a distance, walked around the small stone bridge, and saw Cui'e who had been sandwiched between two stout women and was about to be dragged back to the yard, "Oh, Cui'e, what's wrong?" He didn't look very good, but he was sick. ”

Dou Qing'e snorted coldly, she didn't want to say more to Qin Yunuan, the top priority was to seal Cui'e's mouth, Cui'e also knew what happened back then, and now seeing her open-mouthed, crazy look, it was like burying a cannon battle next to Dou Qing'e, which would explode at any time.

Before Dou Qing'e took two steps, Steward Xie chased after her, and said helplessly: "Madam, forgive the little one, last night the old man ordered the little one to take care of the Furong Courtyard, and Cui'e suddenly burned paper money in the Furong Courtyard in the middle of the night, and the one who still read the words is really suspicious, the small one must be reported to the master, this person can't be taken away at will." ”

"Didn't I already say it," Dou Qing'e was a little flustered for the first time, "Cui'e, she was drunk when she was on duty, and now I am going to take her back to punish her." ”

"On duty?" Qin Yu's warm eyes as clear as clear water blinked slightly, "But it doesn't seem that Cui'e was on duty last night, isn't my mother mistaken?" ”

"Third girl, as a junior, what qualifications do you have to ask about the affairs of my yard." Dou Qing'e seemed a little impatient, she urgently needed to deal with this matter, Cui'e had always been her confidant, she knew too many things, and this time she suddenly ran out of the yard and came to Furong Courtyard, which was really unexpected by her.

"Yu Nuan is not qualified, I should always be qualified." Just as Dou Qing'e was making a decent appearance, Qin Zhen was already standing at the corner gate of the courtyard, his eyes narrowed into a narrow slit, and all his gaze gathered into a point of light, so sharp and sharp that it seemed that he could instantly dissect people's hearts and lungs.

"Old ...... Master. Dou Qing'e, who had always been quiet, stammered for the first time, and her eyes wandered back and forth between Cui'e and Qin Zhen, "This girl is disobedient, and she ...... messily after drinking last night." ”

"Enough, I've heard everything I said before." Qin Qian's posture did not move a bit, but his eyes had clearly told Dou Qing'e that no matter what the outcome of this matter was, she would no longer be the housewife who was calling for wind and rain in the Qin family, and the maid beside her was actually implicated in the violent death of his beloved Lianniang six years ago, which undoubtedly marked Dou Qing'e with a brand destined to have a sad and lonely second half of her life.

And the cause and effect, Qin Zhen has guessed most of it, he wants to break Dou Qing'e's body into thousands of pieces at this moment, and let out a bad breath for his beloved who is six years late, but he can't, now the court is arguing fiercely about whether the Seven Princes want to return to the palace, the Seven Princes are the sons of the first queen, and they were punished by witchcraft to guard the emperor's mausoleum, and now there are ten years, and what a big crime witch Gu is, when the emperor thought of the friendship with the former queen, he did not cure him for the death crime, it was already a blessing, and at the cusp of the storm, Qin Qin was inseparable from the support of the Dou family.

Dou Qing'e probably knows the situation in the court, and she has already lost half of her husband and wife friendship with this Qin Qian, who regards reputation as life and power as siblings, and even has the slightest disdain for him, look, six years ago, because of the Dou family's clamping, even if he doubted himself, he couldn't do it, and six years later, it was still because of the Dou family, he still didn't dare to move himself.

Qin Zhen said, looked back at Qin Yunuan again, only to see Qin Yunuan saluting without falling to the ground, the reason why he received the news so early and rushed here was all because this concubine notified him as soon as possible, in the past, he underestimated her.

"Raise your head," Qin Zhen said to Cui'e, who was already a little unconscious, his eyes narrowed, and he only said, "Steward Xie, let her sober up again." ”

The two mothers-in-law with big shoulders and round waists next to Qin Zhi immediately scooped up the cold water directly from the lotus pond, and took turns to pour water on Cui'e, the pool water was not taken care of for a long time, and there were some dead branches and leaves, stuck to Cui'e's hair, and the placket of her clothes, until Cui'e struggled to block the splash with her hands, Qin Zhi shouted to stop.

"Awake? Just wake up, say! Why do you burn paper money in the middle of the night in Furong Courtyard, and on the wooden board of worship, it is still written on the eight characters of He's birthday? Did Ho die at the hands of others six years ago? Does this matter have anything to do with you? Behind your back...... Is there someone who directs you? Qin Qian's sentences were loud, Qin Yunuan could clearly feel that when Qin asked the last sentence, Dou Qing'e on one side subconsciously tightened her handkerchief.

Everything couldn't be more obvious.

It's a pity that although Cui'e was woken up by eight points, her demeanor was still stupid and stupid, she said to herself in a panic: "The slave doesn't know, the slave really doesn't know, Aunt He, your death has nothing to do with the slave and the maid, the musk, and the five poisons in the decoction, the slave and the maid can't help it, if the slave and the maid don't do this, none of the slave's family members will live, they won't be able to live." As she spoke, Cui'e grinned and cried again.

"Master, now this Cui'e is stupid, and what she says is crazy, if the master insists on asking, what she gets may not be credible." Dou Qing'e hurriedly wanted to explain, but Qin Zhi's extremely cold eyes seemed to choke her throat for a moment, and she couldn't spit out half a word

"Father, Yu Nuan feels that although Cui'e is a little confused now, but judging from her description, Aunt He died suddenly, she knows some reasons, she mentioned her family several times, perhaps, she was caught by someone, now there are many people, she must have something to worry about, it is better to take her back first, and then send her down?" Qin Yunuan's words instantly gave Qin Qin an idea of detachment.

"Take her back." Qin Zhiyin endured the anger burning in his heart, he looked at Dou Qing'e sideways, the meaning in his eyes was very clear, he wanted to tell her that he was no longer the parasite who had to be attached to the Dou family more than ten years ago.

"Sir." Dou Qing'e chased behind, but she didn't mean to catch up, but she just touched the eight-treasure dot green agate golden hairpin on her head seemingly naturally.

When Cui'e heard that she was going to be taken back, she suddenly shouted: "No, don't take me back, don't leave me alone, Aunt He came back to find me, I said, I said everything, in fact, Aunt He was poisoned back then, not violently, and the person who made me do my hands and feet was ......." ”

Seeing Dou Qing'e touching the golden hairpin and smiling fiercely, Qin Yunuan secretly screamed in her heart, almost in an instant, something seemed to pierce the back of Cui'e's neck at a speed that could not be caught by the naked eye, the speed was so fast that you can imagine, and almost at the same moment, Cui'e's neck suddenly stiffened, her pupils dilated infinitely, and she suddenly collapsed on the two grandmothers who were holding her, rolling her eyes, like a dead person.

"Master," Steward Xie's voice trembled slightly after he stepped forward to investigate, "Cui'e...... She's dead. ”

He's dead?

Even though Qin Zhen was forced to calm down, the surprise on his face that could not be concealed revealed the anxiety in his heart, and subconsciously, he turned his gaze to Dou Qing'e, but Dou Qing'e was already frowning, and her eyes were sad.

"After all, Cui'e has been with me for so many years, alas, ......." As soon as Dou Qing'e finished speaking, Xiu Gu immediately took over and said: "Madam, I can't blame you, Cui'e has had epilepsy since she was a child, and thanks to Madame's care, it is her blessing to be able to do things by Madame's side." ”

Epilepsy? Qin Yunuan's heart has changed from the shock at the beginning to the boundless calm, she knows best why Cui'e suddenly came to the Furong Courtyard to burn paper money, she inquired earlier, Dou Qing'e's side of this Cui'e, not only followed Dou Qing'e for a long time, but also, the most jealous of gods, Buddhas, ghosts and the like, the maid should not wear some bracelets and beads and the like, but Cui'e often hides a string of Buddhist beads in her sleeve, so Qin Yunuan deliberately mentioned in front of Cui'e last time that there was crying in the Furong Courtyard at night, plus there was a fright last night, Cui'e will definitely take action.

As for Cui'e's state of babbling, it was just that Qin Yunuan had returned to Zhao after Qin Yunuan had not succeeded in dropping the five stones in her meal last time.

Ke Cui'e's sudden death......

"This is your maid!" Qin Zhi's eyes gradually turned red, with a bloody scarlet, as if he wanted to knead and flatten Dou Qing'e to vent the hatred in his heart, "Your maid came to Furong Courtyard in the middle of the night to burn paper money to worship, and also admitted that the incident back then was related to her, Dou Qing'e!" Do you dare to say that what happened back then had nothing to do with you? ”

"Master, how can you say that?" Dou Qing'e had tears on her cheeks, "The concubine was wronged, when Sister He was there, the concubine knew that the lord cherished Sister He, which concubine sent something good to her mother's house, and the concubine didn't send a copy to Sister He's yard, Sister He was not pregnant for a long time, and the concubine went around to find a way for her to make up for her body, Sister He was sick and weak, and the concubine invited the best doctor in Beijing to give Sister He long-term diagnosis and treatment. ”
