Chapter 423: The spies around me
It was also at this moment that Fang Xiaoxiao suddenly noticed that Mo Tianyao quickly put his purse into his arms after hearing the voice. His reflexes were quick.
looked at the past intently, and it turned out that the person who came in at this moment was not an outsider, it was Xue Ying, Fang Xiaoxian's personal maid all along.
Xue Ying, who broke in recklessly, was obviously startled the moment she saw Mo Tianyao, so she immediately squatted down and saluted: "The slave should die, the slave should die, I don't know that the prince is here, the slave and the maid really deserve to die." ”
"I don't know if you need to find the princess when you come here at this time?!"
Because at the beginning, Fang Xiaoxiao had already instructed Tao Yan not to let other maids come in after serving him and taking his medicine, and this sentence happened to make Mo Tianyao listen to it at that time. So at this moment, seeing Xue Ying suddenly appear here, he was a little puzzled for a while.
I couldn't help but ask.
"This ......" It was obvious that Xue Ying's expression was full of hesitation. She didn't know whether she should open her mouth or not, and she didn't know whether she should say it or not. So I had to pout my lips and answer with a look of hesitation.
"Slave maid...... Slaves...... The slave and maid really didn't know whether to talk about this matter or not, but this matter was indeed very important, so the slave and maid thought that they couldn't hide it from the prince. ”
For Xue Ying's words, Fang Xiaoxiao was extremely curious for a while. She wondered, what could it be that could make her so entangled?
Mo Tianyao stared at Xue Ying quietly for a long time, and then replied to her: "If there is anything, you can just say it, don't beat around the bush like this." ”
Xue Ying nodded, as if she had made a lot of determination, and then said softly: "Back to the prince's words, this morning, the slave maid went out of the house to help my master plan to ask for a hexagram. ”
At this point, her expression paused slightly. It may seem a bit hard to say.
"The slave is looking forward to the master being able to give birth to a little master for the prince as soon as possible, I heard that there is a place where the hexagram is particularly effective, so the slave and the maid want to go out to try their luck, maybe the master is pregnant with a little son."
Mo Tianyao didn't speak, quietly looked at her and nodded, motioning for her to continue.
As a result, the slave maid suddenly accidentally discovered that Princess Luo's personal maid was buying medicine in a pharmacy not far away. Originally, the slave maid didn't think there was anything wrong, but then she felt that the maid always looked sneaky, and the slave and maid became suspicious, thinking that this matter was a little unusual, and there must be something wrong. At night, the slave maid happened to come back, it stands to reason that Princess Luo's body and bones are good, there is no problem, there is no need to take any medicine at all, I have also observed for a long time, and I have not found any traces of decoction on the stove over there. Later, the more the slave thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, so she ran out of the house after eating, and returned to the pharmacy to ask the shopkeeper for a list of herbs she had purchased. ”
Originally, the shopkeeper was very reluctant to give this list to the slave maid, but then the slave and maid excused themselves that the herb was a little wrong, so they had to look it back and check it, so that they could say that they had exhausted their tongues to get the list. The slave maid originally thought that she would take it to Dr. Zhou first to take a good look at it and see if there was anything wrong with this medicine list, but the slave and maid searched around and didn't find Dr. Zhou, so she planned to take the list and tell the master. ”
Hearing this, Mo Tianyao probably understood this matter. I saw him open his mouth and interrupt what Xue Ying was about to say, "Since you said so, then presumably that list is on you now?" ”
"Yes, the list is on the slave now." Xue Ying nodded, then took out a folded square piece of paper from her sleeve, and respectfully gave the paper to Mo Tianyao.
Mo Tianyao stretched out his hand to take the paper, unfolded it and carefully surveyed it, and after a long day's work, he raised his head and asked, "Let me ask you, did someone from the palace send a bunch of sachets to the princess today?" ”
Suddenly, Xue Ying seemed to be stunned by such a question. She thought about it for a while, and then she remembered.
"Back to the prince's words, today the palace sent a pair of sachets to the princess. The princess also ordered the slave maid to put the sachet in the drawer on the dresser. ”
After Xue Ying remembered this incident, she had to answer honestly.
Odd.
Fang Xiaoxiao felt that something was wrong for a while.
How could this be so strange? How could it be such a coincidence?
At this time, Luo Yi'er also planned to poison her?! And why did she have to hurt herself? After all, there hasn't been a lot of contact between the two of them since this time. And I don't feel that I have done anything to offend her, so this woman really looks a little unworthy if she makes a move at this time.
If Luo Yi'er really wants to harm herself, could it be that the ingredients in the prescription that Xue Ying just said are the same as the ingredients in the abortion pill in the sachet? Otherwise, how could Mo Tianyao go out of his way to ask about that pair of sachets? It's all unreasonable.
Thinking of this, Fang Xiaoxiao couldn't help but be confused.
Looking at the man in front of her who looked silent in the candlelight, I don't know why, at this moment, she suddenly only felt that her eyes lit up.
She seemed to see the truth of the matter.
In fact, Xue Ying, the girl, was not helping herself at all, but deliberately trying to harm her. In fact, there is no hatred or grudge between the two of them, but their respective positions are different. This girl is clearly the spy sent by Concubine Ying's mother to her side. I don't know how she heard part of the situation here from Taoyan, and then speculated again, for fear that her real master would be seen through the conspiracy by Fang Xiaoxiao because of this matter. So this is to take a risk, and Mo Tianyao, who ran, told such a big lie.
In fact, the lie that Xue Ying just told is really not simple. It can even be said that it has been thoroughly well thought out.
On the surface, it seemed that Luo Yi'er wanted to scare Fang Xiaoxiao with this abortion pill, but she deliberately mixed many loopholes in her lie, so that Mo Tianyao could follow these loopholes, and finally realized that this medicine was not Luo Yi'er's order at all.
What was the end result? What would he think? At this time, he naturally thought that the biggest possibility was that Fang Xiaoxiao deliberately instructed Xue Ying to frame Luo Yi'er.
