Chapter 85: The little woman will take revenge if she has revenge
"It's her." When he identified the third row, He Shuning pointed to the mother-in-law in front of him and said to Mu Qingyun.
The woman was flustered for a moment, but soon returned to her previous panic and dazed face, "The old slave is wronged, princess, the old slave ......"
"Drag it off." As soon as Wu waved his hand, Mama Wu immediately asked people to drag this woman out.
"Look at the rest of the people." Without waiting for the few maids kneeling behind to put down their hearts, Mu Qingyun had already given He Shuning the latest instructions.
He Shuning is so obedient, as soon as Mu Qingyun said this, the little girl immediately began to continue her previous series of actions.
"And this, she has the same gut-breaking smell on her hands as in that dish."
Everyone was stunned - this girl probably has a dog's nose, right?
Wu was also a little stunned, until the maid who was pointed out by He Shuning began to shout injustice, and Wu came back to his senses.
She instructed Mama Wu, "You can bring someone to send this to the torture room in the front yard now!" ”
"The princess spares her life! The princess spares her life! When the maid heard the word "torture room", she immediately collapsed to the ground, until the rough woman outside the door came to drag people, and the maid woke up like a dream, struggling and begging loudly for mercy.
That's a torture room, no matter how hard-mouthed people enter, the torture room also has the ability to let them know everything and say everything.
She is a deputy lady by the side of a half-master, and she can't bear the methods of the torture room.
Wu directly ignored the various noises made by this maid, and she instructed her eldest maid, Xia Ling, "Go and invite Chen to the main courtyard for me." ”
Chen is Concubine Chen, and the maid who was sent to the torture room by Wu was a third-class maid in her yard.
In the palace, the highest-ranking maid around the concubine is the second-class maid, so the third-class maid around them can actually be counted as half of their henchmen.
Xia Ling took the order and left, and He Shuning, who had completed the task, was stuffed with a hand of pastries by Mu Qingyun, "Eat, thank you for your hard work." ”
At this time, the rough envoy mother-in-law in the courtyard of the fifth young master, who was dragged out to beat the board, also opened her mouth to confess - not that she was afraid of being beaten, but that she was afraid that she would also be sent to the torture room by the Wu family.
A rough mother-in-law like her, who collects money behind her back to "help" other subordinates, will definitely not have only one thing to see on her when she pulls one out.
She didn't want to be sent to the torture chamber and confess all the bad things she had done for most of her life.
“... It was Cuiliu who gave the old slave two taels of silver, and asked the old slave to help her change the food box, saying that her concubine wanted to eat bergamot shark fin, but the big kitchen was only willing to make it for these two guests, so, so..." The woman lay on the ground, banging her head as she spoke, "It's the old slave who was confused for a while, greedy for money and did something wrong." ”
Cuiliu's excuse was not distracted, the old woman must have heard that it was boring, but she still pretended to be confused, and helped Cuiliu change the food box sent to the guest house.
The food box originally contained a hundred flowers and jade grilled morels, but that one was not poisoned.
Under the banner of changing vegetables for her master, Cuiliu exchanged the poisonous portion of the Baihua Jade Grilled Morel to He Shuning and Mu Qingyun.
If it weren't for He Shuning's keen five senses and Mu Qingyun's proficient pharmacology, the two of them would have died in this palace.
These people are so vicious, but it is because Mu Qingyun and He Shuning can help Ji Yongan, and they are one of the few absolute people that Ji Yongan can fully trust.
As long as he thought that his son's right-hand man was almost killed by these women in the palace, Wu was so angry that his heart trembled.
Especially Mu Qingyun is still the future daughter-in-law that her son fancies, how can she let Mu Qingyun die in the palace infighting? Isn't that tantamount to ripping out her son's heart?
Not to mention how the Wu family dealt with Concubine Chen, only to say that He Shuning and Mu Qingyun, before Concubine Chen was invited, Mu Qingyun had already taken He Shuning back to the guest house.
Mu Qingyun is still very measured in this regard, she knows that she is just a guest now, so she doesn't want to get involved in the internal fighting of the palace at all.
If it weren't for those people who stretched their claws on her and He Shuning, Mu Qingyun wouldn't have to send the plate of potholed jade pickled morels to the main courtyard today.
She wanted to help Ji Yongan, but she didn't help him clean up Ji Heng's concubines.
Mu Qingyun has her own principles and bottom line, as well as her own ideals and ambitions, what she wants to give Ji Yongan is strong support from a broader world, instead of clinging to Ji Yongan like a vine, relying on him for honor or disgrace.
***
"I heard someone poisoned you last night?" Early the next morning, Yan Nanxiao came to the guest house without eating.
He Shuning was taking a pie and nibbling on it, and nodded hurriedly when he heard this, which was to answer Yan Nanxiao's question.
"Why are you here? Where's your senior brother? Mu Qingyun put down her chopsticks and looked at Yan Nanxiao's face with curiosity.
Yan Nanxiao sat down on the chair beside He Shuning, "Senior brother has gone to appease the princess." Last night the princess and the prince had a fight. ”
Mu Qingyun frowned slightly, "Did the prince protect Concubine Chen?" ”
Yan Nanxiao nodded, "The maid who was sent to the torture room committed suicide by hitting the pillar while others were unprepared." The princess wanted to search Concubine Chen's yard, but Concubine Chen went to the prince first, saying that the princess forced her maid to death, and framed her for drugging you and A-Ning. ”
Mu Qingyun was completely speechless.
She could guess without Yan Nanxiao relaying that Ji Heng must have asked the princess for evidence again.
He will never see the coffin and not cry when facing his concubine, and the princess must be angry again because of his favoritism towards Concubine Chen.
And this Concubine Chen, her tail sweeping action is swift enough!
In the past, Concubine Liu, who was Ji Heng's cousin, pressed her and didn't show her, but now that Concubine Liu has fallen, she likes to mention the title of Concubine Liu, and she has really started to be a demon recently.
But it doesn't matter, what is inconvenient for the Wu family to do, she and He Shu would rather be very convenient, and want to bite them for nothing, Mu Qingyun feels that it is easier for this Concubine Chen to achieve her goal when she is still dreaming.
She pushed the plate with cold powder in front of He Shuning, "Eat more, when you're full, Senior Sister will take you to do something." ”
The corners of Yan Nanxiao's lips hooked slightly, "It just so happens that I developed a new medicine yesterday, as long as a little powder the size of a fingernail can make people unrecognizable." ”
As he spoke, he took out an ordinary white porcelain bottle from his sleeve pocket, "This medicine works very slowly, and the only advantage is that no matter how clever the doctor is, he can't check that the other party is actually poisoned." ”
He Shuning and Mu Qingyun were eating, and Yan Nanxiao vaguely brought the effect of his medicine, which led to Mu Qingyun and He Shuning not taking the effect of this medicine seriously at all.
Until, Concubine Chen's screams resounded in the sky, and the palace began to invite famous doctors in the city like water.
