Chapter 60: Self-inflicted iniquity
"The dregs were mixed with the leftover pigeon soup! Who knows if these Epsom leaves were put by Ning Xiang?! Miss, the slave is wronged! ”
Fu Yan endured the burning pain of his internal organs and forced himself to explain.
Xiao Qian also felt that things were still so complicated, and he didn't know how to explain it.
Jiang Yueyue lowered her head, her face was gloomy, she didn't know what she was thinking, she still felt that it was unlikely that Ning Xiang would do this, but now the evidence was chaotic, and she couldn't completely link the guilt with Fu Yang.
For a while, the atmosphere in the courtyard became solemn, and things seemed to be at an impasse.
The two masters above didn't say a word, as if they didn't know what to do next.
"This young lady, why don't you listen to the old man?" Lang Zhong on the side remembered something, approached Xiao Qian and Jiang Yueyue, and whispered a few words.
I saw Xiao Qian nodded, waved his hand to summon Cai Sang, and instructed a few words in his ear, and after a while, someone brought a dustpan of medicinal herbs and poured them in front of Ning Xiang and Fu Rice respectively.
Subsequently, Lang Zhong picked and chose a leaf, which in the eyes of ordinary people was no different from the other leaves in the dustpan.
Ning Xiang instantly understood Lang Zhong's intentions, and when the pile of leaves fell in front of her, she could see that it was a fresh Epsom leaf mixed with other similar leaves.
Lang Zhong took the leaf in his hand to the two of them to take a closer look, and said, "Please two girls, among the leaves in front of you, pick out the same herb as the leaf in your hand." ”
"What is this?" Ning Xiang furrowed her brows, pretending not to understand the intention.
And Fu Yang's heart almost rose to his throat. She panicked. She could recognize at a glance that the leaves in Lang Zhong's hand were epsom leaves, but the similar medicinal herbs were mixed together, and she couldn't tell them at all, what was this going to do?
"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you look for it quickly?" Jiang Yueyue patted the armrest of the seat, and the two of them raised their heads in surprise. The corners of her mouth hooked slightly, and said, "If you find it first, Miss Ben will reward her with an ingot of gold." ”
Fu Yan felt better at this time, it seems that in this pile of leaves, only one leaf is a real epsom leaf, and Ning Xiang, a fool who doesn't know medical skills, will definitely not be able to find it. Since it's a bounty, it should be a clear of suspicion, right?
The moonlight shone softly on the earth, and occasionally dark clouds drifted over to cover the starry sky and the moon, such an environment was actually not suitable for screening medicinal materials, but it was not so much to care about.
Fu Miao buried her head and rummaged carefully, but picked out a large number of "Epsom leaves", these are all in her opinion, but Miss's words are obviously only one true, which one of them will be?
Just as she was thinking anxiously, she heard Ning Xiang next to her stand up tremblingly, holding a leaf and sending it to Lang Zhong: "Excuse me, is this it?" ”
Fu Miao suddenly raised his head, for fear that Ning Xiang would seize the opportunity.
Who knew that Lang Zhong took the leaf handed by Ning Xiang and shook his head regretfully: "The girl's leaf is similar to what I just held, but it is not the same kind." ”
But why not, he didn't mention it, just shook his head, and waited for the seedlings to finish rummaging.
Seeing that Jiang Yueyue didn't mean to deal with Ning Xiang, Fu Xiang was also a little puzzled, obviously Ning Xiang was wrong, why didn't she just send her down? Do you have to find a piece of it?
Looking at the leaves in front of her, one was something she didn't think was right, and the other was something she picked out to look like. The longer she pondered, the harder it became.
Finally, Fu Miao gently picked up a piece that she was most sure of and handed it to Lang Zhong.
Lang Zhong looked at the leaves, then at the seedlings, and finally nodded.
Is this self-passed? Fu Yang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Who knew that the next moment, Xiao Qian scolded sharply: "Bold slave, he actually refused to admit his guilt!" Come! Take her down! ”
Then the government soldiers rushed in and detained the people.
Fu Yan stood there, not feeling that she was coming at her, and was about to wave at Ning Xiang proudly, but she was surrounded by a group of people, two of whom escorted her to the torture bench.
"Miss?!" Fu Yan's eyes were full of disbelief, "I obviously found the right one!" ”
"You've got the right fart!" Xiao Qian was furious, "You are a medical woman, you can't even tell the difference between epsom leaves and leaves, and you are embarrassed to cry out for injustice?!" ”
Fu Yan was stunned, she was not good at medicine, but Ning Xiang didn't find the right one?
"Ning Xiang also picked the wrong one! She was wrong, too! ”
"Nonsense, did she study medicine?! You are a medical girl who mistook medicinal materials, even if you didn't deliberately poison Yue'er, you used the wrong medicine, what else is there to justify?! ”
Xiao Qian angrily pulled out the saber, and the cold light came out of the sheath, as if it was about to fall on the head of Fu Qiao in the next moment.
"The son of the world is not allowed!" Jiang Yueyue stopped Xiao Qian in time, "She hasn't signed the deed yet, so she can't be considered a slave, and we can't send it." ”
"Poisoning the quasi-princess, can't I send her to the prince of Xiao Wangfu?!"
"Xiao Lang, the matter started because of me, I don't want to dirty your sword for this."
Jiang Yueyue's voice was faint, and there was a hint of forbearance. Xiao Qian hurriedly turned around, but saw that his heart was standing up and walking towards him with a leg injury.
Xiao Qian was suddenly very distressed, took back his sword, and went over to help the beautiful woman sit back on the chair.
Ning Xiang was obviously still shocked, her reaction was half a beat slower, and only after Jiang Yueyue sat down did she carefully move over and kneel beside her lap.
"Miss suffered." Ning Xiang choked.
Jiang Yueyue looked down at Ning Xiang's raised eyes full of tears, and she was a little moved in an instant. She couldn't help but reach out and half-hugged Ning Xiang in her arms, and comforted her softly: "Xiang'er has also suffered." ”
The master and servant hugged their heads and cried.
There are moving cries and forced tears, and there are also cries in the face of the fear of death.
Only then did Fu Miao realize that he was completely being toyed with by Ning Xiang in the palm of his hand. She had a contemptuous attitude towards Ning Xiang, and wanted to deal with it quickly, and even wanted to use Ning Xiang to open the knife and step on Jiang Yueyue's corpse to reach Xiao Qian's big tree, but she didn't think that she had never even fought Ning Xiang, who she couldn't look down on.
The sound of the board falling on her body announced her impending death, and a stinky rag was stuffed in Fuyang's mouth to prevent her from screaming in too much pain and disturbing her master's purity.
I don't know how many hits, Fu Yang felt that his eyes had become brighter. The darkness of the night seemed like day in her sight. From a distance, she seemed to see Ning Xiang turn her head in Jiang Yueyue's arms and smile sadly at her.
The rag in her mouth was pulled out, and the moment it was pulled out, it landed on the board of her hips, making her numb and regain her sense of pain again.
"Smack!"
With her unspoken exclamation, the executing soldier slapped the last board on her mouth.
"Click."
The sound of the skull shattering is so clear, and there is no more insatiable seedling in the world.
