Chapter 149: Questioning
Inside the tavern.
"Eldest Prince, I'm here." Chu Yue'an lifted the straw curtain and said hello to Qi Yujing at the door.
Qi Yujing paused slightly, his eyes were slightly sunken, he still walked towards Chu Yue'an, lifted the straw curtain, and saw that there was only Chu Yue'an at the wine table behind the curtain, and felt a little inconvenient, so he didn't take a seat, and arched his hand: "Second Miss Chu." ”
"Grand Prince, please be seated." Chu Yuean smiled slightly, "Don't feel restrained, I have a few words I want to tell you, and I'll leave after speaking." ”
Qi Yujing thought about it for a while, sat down, and said softly: "Second Miss has something to say, please say it." ”
Chu Yue'an poured Qi Yujing a glass of wine, and said with a light smile: "Earlier, my grandmother went to your mansion and said that I was crazy and wanted to marry the third sister to the second son of Qi. But Mrs. Qi and the eldest son, you didn't dislike me crazy at that time, but were willing to admit the marriage contract and want to take me to the Guogong Mansion to take care of, although this matter was just a misunderstanding, but the benevolence of the eldest prince and Mrs. Qi, I remembered it. ”
"It's just something that should be done, it's not a great kindness, the second lady doesn't have to take it to heart, not to mention the direction behind this matter, no one expected." Qi Yujing took a sip of the wine glass and said lightly.
"I came out of the eldest prince today, there is one thing, I think about it again, or I want to tell you." Chu Yue'an said, "Old Madam Qi's symptoms are not evil, but poisoning. ”
Qi Yujing's face changed: "Poisoned? How can it be poisoning? I have changed several doctors, but they didn't say that it was poisoning! ”
"Do you remember what happened to me?" Chu Yue'an looked into his eyes and said, "I had been crazy for half a year before, so no one is more familiar than me. At that time, I was crazy because of poisoning, but because the amount of poisoning was very small each time, and it only worked after many accumulations, the doctor couldn't find out why. Presumably, Old Madam Qi is also because of this. ”
After a pause, Chu Yue'an continued: "Old Madam Qi likes to eat osmanthus cakes, and this problem lies in this osmanthus cake. Osmanthus cake comes from Wufangzhai, the raw material of this osmanthus cake comes from a person surnamed Jin, but this person has died yesterday, the death is strange, before he died, he just happened to get a sum of money, and paid off the huge gambling debt. It is also inconvenient for me to talk about this matter. ”
Chu Yue'an observed Qi Yujing's face, and his surprise and resentment were combined, and he urged a little anxiously: "What else does the second young lady know, please tell me." ”
"The eldest prince is smart, and it shouldn't be difficult to track down. Who is the person who goes to Wufangzhai to buy osmanthus cake every day, and how to deal with the excess osmanthus cake bought back in the house, these can be found out at a check, as for the specific situation, the eldest prince still goes back and asks the Duchess of the country. ”
"You mean, is this matter ......" Qi Yujing's face turned pale, and his calm expression became two points flustered, "This is impossible, how can she be!" ”
"Yes or no, the eldest prince will know as soon as he checks it." Chu Yuean said, "I just came here today to remind the eldest prince, how to deal with this matter next, it is all up to the eldest prince to decide, I just hope that it will not fall deeper and deeper." In addition, my life is at stake, I wanted to visit Mrs. Qi last time, but I was stopped by Mrs. Guogong, I still want to go and see in person, I should be able to detoxify Mrs. Qi. ”
Qi Yujing swallowed his saliva, and his expression changed from flustered to calm: "Second Miss really has a way to save my grandmother?" ”
"How else did I come to my senses?"
"The second young lady can go with me to the Guogong Mansion to save my grandmother now." Qi Yujing said, "Everything has Miss Lao Er!" ”
Qi Yujing was worried about his grandmother's illness, and he couldn't take care of the etiquette he valued the most, so he directly took Chu Yue'an back to the Qi State Mansion, and then went to his grandmother's courtyard.
Since there are people guarding this place, they are afraid that outsiders will enter, and they are also afraid that people inside will break out.
A few henchmen around the old lady who were waiting, they ate the leftover osmanthus cake that the old lady ate on weekdays, and they all went crazy, all called detained, and they all said that this was an evil spirit.
The people outside stopped Qu Qi Yujing from entering: "The eldest prince, many people inside are crazy, the eldest prince is precious, what if they hurt you?" Let's let those Taoist priests do it later! ”
"Get out of the way, I'm going to see my grandmother, get out of here!" Qi Yujing roared angrily.
"It's not that the villains don't let the eldest prince in, it's really dangerous here, they lose their minds, and they beat people when they see them, I'm afraid they will hurt you by mistake! If Madame orders me again, no one will be allowed to enter, and we will only do what we are told! The mother-in-law who stopped the person said with a sad face, "The eldest prince should be considerate of us." ”
The more he stopped from entering, the more strange it became, Qi Yujing kicked at the woman and scolded: "What are you, dare to stop me!" ”
"What do you want to do, Evil Barrier!" Duchess Guo rushed over, "Yujing, what's wrong with you?" ”
"I just wanted to see my grandmother, but I didn't expect such a trivial matter to alarm my mother." Qi Yujing said, "Since my mother is here, let's go with me to see my grandmother." ”
"Your grandmother is only taken care of by her subordinates, what are you doing to make a fuss?" The Duchess reprimanded, "What kind of system is it that makes a lot of noise here?" Don't get down yet. ”
"Mother, no matter what grandmother is doing now, we juniors should ask her for peace." Qi Yujing said, "I haven't seen my grandmother for many days, and I don't know my grandmother's current condition, so I don't feel at ease in my heart." ”
"What's wrong with you? Who are you worried about? Don't worry about me? Duchess Guo glanced at Chu Yue'an beside Qi Yujing, and suddenly became angry, and asked with a sneer, "Isn't this Miss Chu Er?" What are you doing here? ”
"I'm here to visit Old Madam Qi." Chu Yue said in peace.
"In this situation, do you Ninghou Mansion still have the face to come to our Guogong Mansion?" Duchess Guo sneered again and again, "What's the matter, you third lady has harmed our second child, and you have come to harm our family boss again?" ”
"Mother said cautiously, grandmother has always liked the second lady very much, today I invited her to visit grandmother, not to mention that the visitor is a guest, how can my mother's attitude be so vulgar?" Qi Yujing said, "Tell them all to get out of the way, otherwise I'm welcome." ”
"What do you want?" Mrs. Guogong was so angry that she trembled, "Something like this happened in the Guogong Mansion, I'm already too busy, why are you still looking for trouble for me?" On weekdays, you are the most worry-free, but today you want to find me happy, right? If you don't step down quickly, what should you do! ”
She glanced at Chu Yue'an coldly: "There are many things in our house, and guests are not welcome, so Miss Chu Er can do it herself." ”
"After greeting the old lady, I will leave." Chu Yue'an said lightly.
At this time, I saw Qi Yujing waving his hand, and several nurses stood up, and he ordered: "Pull this group of mothers-in-law away, I have to go to see my grandmother today!" ”
Several nurses immediately stepped forward to pull away the mothers-in-law who were guarding the door, and Qi Yujing stretched out his hand to Chu Yue'an and said, "Second Miss Chu, please." ”
After entering, Qi Yujing directly took Chu Yuean to the inner bedroom of the old lady Qi, and at this moment the old lady was already asleep, but it was also quiet.
Duchess Guo followed behind the two and was about to speak, when Qi Yujing pulled her mother aside and said, "Mother, I have something to tell you." ”
Qi Yujing was still the first to disobey his mother so much, and when he saw her pulled into the side room, he asked, "Do you know about grandmother's poisoning?" ”
Duchess Guo's face changed suddenly, and her eyes quickly turned: "What nonsense are you talking about, where is she poisoned, she is evil." ”
"What is Mother going to hide? Can this be hidden? Miss Chu Er is proficient in medical science, and she can see it at a glance. Qi Yujing said, "Mother, can grandmother's poisoning be related to you?" ”
Duchess Guo's face turned pale, and she hurriedly waved her hand: "It has nothing to do with me, I don't know anything." ”
"Sure enough, it has something to do with you, it's useless for you to deny it, and this matter will be found out as soon as you check it." Qi Yujing was heartbroken, "Mother, how can you do such a thing that has lost your conscience!" ”
"Don't talk about it!" The Duchess pinched her son's shoulders, "Only you know about this, right?" Don't say it, or our family will be finished! ”
"Mother, why did you do such a thing!" Qi Yujing stared at his mother's eyes, "That's our grandmother, why do you want to be so cruel to her?" What the hell is going on? ”
was forced to ask by her son again and again, and the Duchess broke down and cried: "I'm also for your second brother's marriage!" Your second brother has a skin-to-skin relationship with Miss Chu San, and he begged me every day to let Miss Chu San enter the door, but I was begged by him and had no choice but to find a way to help him. But your grandmother and you have to marry that second miss Chu, so the people of the Zhao family found me and said that they could temporarily make the old lady crazy, and we will find another Taoist to say that she is evil, and the third lady's eight characters are good, and she can be happy when she marries in, as long as she marries in, her mother-in-law's body can be restored. ”
He choked up and continued: "They said that the drug had no effect on your grandmother's body, I thought that as long as the marriage went well, everything would be fine, and then Miss Chu Er divorced the marriage, everything was more logical, I didn't expect that something like that would happen at the wedding, now the Zhao family has to let me think of Chu Yuezi to become Yuzhi's wife, otherwise they won't give me the antidote, if you don't give the antidote, your grandmother will ...... And they're going to tell the story! ”
