Chapter 55: Exploration I

Tong Huaiyuan wanted Song Zhan to go home, but he told himself with a little reason that he couldn't do this.

"His Royal Highness, the lower officials are not welcome."

Song Zhan stepped into the hall, looked at Tong Huaiyuan, who was not smiling with his eyelids, and bowed to Mrs. Tong after bowing politely.

"The younger generation came to the door rashly, I hope the old lady is not to blame, the old lady will have a good New Year."

"Thank you, Shizi."

After a simple salute, Song Zhan ignored Tong Huaiyuan's gesture to welcome him to the seat, and silently stood behind Tong Qingyan.

The people in the second room were already stunned after Song Zhan came in, seeing Song Zhan's behavior, the rumors in the capital were really in their hearts at this moment.

Before today, whenever he went out and was dragged to talk about the scandal between Miss Tong San and the prince of Huai, the people in the second room were all "Your brains are in water?" Today this is really a slap to wake up.

"Big brother, what do you have to say?"

Tong Huaishan looked at Tong Huaiyuan, who had a strange face, and spoke tentatively.

"Let's all sit down." Seeing that everyone sat down one after another, only Song Zhan was still standing behind his daughter, Tong Huaiyuan couldn't see it, "Sister An entered the palace today, and the fetal gas of the third princess and concubine was shocked, but fortunately, the child is fine." ”

"What do you mean by that, big brother? Does the third princess's fetal gas have anything to do with our Tongfu? ”

Tong Manjiao was sitting on the chair at the moment, not daring to look up at people at all, especially the people in the big room, her strange appearance had fallen into Zhou's eyes, and Zhou's eyes were also full of shock and disbelief.

"Sister An, it's up to you to talk about the specifics."

"Okay."

Tong Qingyan glanced around, and her eyes fell on Tong Manjiao.

"Is the big sister unwell? Why is your face so ugly? ”

Tong Manjiao heard Tong Qingyan call herself, she raised her head suddenly, her mouth opened but she didn't say a word, Zhou hurriedly opened her mouth to explain for her.

"Wasn't your eldest sister sick before, and since then there have been some repetitions, maybe I got up early today and went for a walk in the garden and the wind blew again."

It's okay that Zhou didn't speak, as soon as he talked about getting up early to take a walk in the garden, Tong Qingyan and Tong Manjiao's eyes flashed, Tong Qingyan withdrew her gaze on Tong Manjiao, lowered her head and looked at her shoes, and began to narrate calmly, as if she was telling someone else's story.

"When I went out to prepare to enter the palace today, I happened to meet a person, he said that my sachet was a little chic, and later after entering the palace, at the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, the third prince and concubine had fetal gas, and the imperial doctor diagnosed that it was caused by incense, and my sachet mixed with incense pills was searched by the palace people from Aunt Qin beside the Queen Mother."

Tong Qingyan's tone was surprisingly calm, but the words she said made everyone in the Tong Mansion in the hall unable to calm down, especially Wen Lan.

"How can you have Rausch incense pills in your sachet?! Who is trying to harm you! In this house... Someone in this house is trying to harm you?! ”

"Mother, don't worry, sit down first, I'm not fine."

"How can I not be in a hurry, once this kind of thing is touched by the Nine Clans, it is light, how can it be ......?"

"Madam......" Tong Huaiyuan shook Wen Lan's hand, "Madam, don't worry, isn't this solving the problem now." ”

Seeing that Tong Huaiyuan stabilized Wen Lan, Tong Qingyan nodded at Feicui, who was guarding the door of the hall, and the other party went out willingly.

"My sachets are all made by the needle and thread people in the house, and when I went out into the palace, I had secretly sent people to control those people. As for the incense pills, the incense pills used on weekdays are all brought from Changchun Mansion, and the uncle's mother made them by hand, and the people who have this incense pill in the house are my grandmother, mother, aunt and two sisters except me. ”

"Although there are only a few of us present who have incense pills, there are more people who can get incense pills, and incense pills are not very precious things, and they don't pay special attention to ...... on weekdays."

"Auntie, don't worry, I didn't say that the person who harmed me must be in this hall, don't you say?"

Tong Qingyan looked at Zhou, who was caring for her daughter, with a smile in her eyes, and she still stubbornly believed that Tong Manjiao could not do such a thing.

Zhou's face was sneering, he tightened the handkerchief in his hand, lowered his head and straightened his clothes under Tong Huaishan's gaze, and stopped speaking.

After all, the Tong Mansion was not big, and there were only three people on the needlework, and they were quickly brought to the hall.

Two of the three of them bought the house after coming to Beijing, and the family background has been investigated clearly, so it stands to reason that it will not be a hidden stake buried by anyone.

The three of them looked at the masters in the hall a little timidly, no one dared to say anything, Tong Qingyan's eyes turned around on the three of them, there should be no problem on the face, but if you should ask, you still have to ask.

"Who made the sachet that the county lord brought out today, the one who embroidered phalaenopsis?"

For people in this world, the higher the position, the more absolute power there is, Tong Qingyan came to ask as the county lord, and the heads of these three people drooped even lower.

"If you go back to the county lord, you are a slave... Slaves and maidservants. ”

The middle-aged woman in a dark blue jacket replied in a low voice.

"How many sachets did you make?"

"The slave doesn't remember much, but about ...... About five or six were done. ”

"Where to go? Do you remember? ”

"There are two more to the slave maid, and the slave and maid remember that a reasonable girl from Hanlian Garden took it, and a Qingbi girl from the eldest lady's courtyard took it, and there was another ...... And a ......"

The mother-in-law couldn't go on, although she didn't know what was going on, but when she asked about the sachet like this, something must have happened, and the mother-in-law thought of where the sachet went, and broke out in a cold sweat.

"You tell you the truth, there is a saying called confession and leniency, resistance and strictness, do you understand?"

The slave maid said that not long after the slave maid entered the house, she heard that the third lady was a bodhisattva, and begged the third lady to spare the slave and maid, but the slave and maid did not mean to. It's really... In fact, that day happened to be the birthday of the little granddaughter, and there were some leftovers of the satin for the sachet, so I secretly made a slightly smaller one and gave it to the slave's little granddaughter as a birthday gift. ”

The mother-in-law kowtowed tremblingly, but Tong Qingyan's heart was relieved, and now it was basically certain that Tong Manjiao did it, but after her heart was relieved, she couldn't help but feel a fine and dense pain.

Family affection turned out to be so vulnerable under the temptation, and the friendship that got along from childhood to adulthood may be difficult to survive tonight.

When I was a child, I watched Tong Manjiao always look like a big sister and take care of herself and Tong Manjiao, at that time, I felt that this girl was really good and deserved a very good future, but now, ......

Tong Manjiao's thoughts, Tong Qingyan roughly knows a little, this eldest lady of Tongfu is arrogant, this arrogance makes her pay attention to her words and deeds, and makes her look forward to a better marriage in this world, but all this is based on the premise of hurting herself, Tong Qingyan knows that she is not the Holy Mother, so her eyes at this moment are like a sharp sword directly stabbed on Tong Manjiao.
