Chapter 46: Problematic Medicine (2)

"Niangniang, did the prince buy this medicine or did someone else buy it out of the palace?" Ye Mengmeng asked seriously.

Concubine Pei said: "The prince was not in the palace before, I asked a little eunuch named Xiao Shunzi to go out of the palace and buy it." ”

"Which pharmacy did he buy it from?"

"I remember it as if it was in Jirentang......

"What? Jiren Tang? Ye Mengmeng's face changed suddenly.

"It should be."

Ye Mengmeng understood everything. Since this matter is related to Ye Jingjing, the nature is not simple.

"Niangniang, this matter is very important, I want to ask Xiaoshunzi's father-in-law a few questions, is it okay?"

"Of course, I'll have someone call him in right away." It was rare for Ye Mengmeng to be so serious, and Concubine Pei was also a little nervous.

"Niangniang, also, I want to ask Xiaoshunzi's father-in-law in front of the prince about this matter."

Concubine Pei was very surprised, but she didn't ask anything, just nodded.

The two of them went out of the inner room, and Yeli was sitting in the Taishi chair in the corner.

Ye Mengmeng stepped forward, came to Yeli, and said seriously: "Lord Wang, I dare to vouch for my personality, my medicine is absolutely no problem." If it is really my mistake, I will let the prince punish me, but if it is not my responsibility, even if the crime is imposed on me, I will not accept it. Even if I fall into the underworld, I will also cry out for injustice! ”

Yeli raised his eyes and stared at her.

"You mean: you don't have responsibility?"

"Lord Wang, I suspect that someone has done something with the prescription."

Yeli was shocked and sneered: "Do your hands and feet? Who would be so bold? ”

Ye Mengmeng said: "Lord Wang, since I said so, it must be well-founded." Prince, according to Niangniang, it was Xiaoshunzi's father-in-law who went out of the palace to buy medicine that day, and I wanted to ask Xiaoshunzi's father-in-law a few words in person, and the answer would naturally be clear. ”

"Little Junko?" Yeli frowned and looked at her mother. "Mother, for such an important matter, why don't you let Father-in-law Wei go?"

Father-in-law Wei has been serving the concubine for more than ten years, and he is loyal and trustworthy.

Concubine Pei glanced at her son: "Do you think the mother concubine doesn't know?" Father-in-law Wei was not in good health that day, and he couldn't get up from the couch, and his mother couldn't find anyone for a while, so he ......"

Yeli didn't make a sound, and felt guilty. In the past, he wanted to put two henchmen in the palace of the concubine, but the concubine was cautious by nature and was afraid that the emperor would be suspicious, so he refused.

He got up and went to the door, called a squire, and whispered a few words.

After a while, Xiao Shunzi's father-in-law walked in.

Concubine Pei has an easy-going temperament, and the people below are not very afraid of her, so although Xiao Shunzi was summoned by Concubine Niangniang, she was not very alarmed.

After entering the door, Xiao Shunzi hurriedly stepped forward to greet the concubine.

"The minion Xiaoshunzi has seen the mother!"

Before the concubine could speak, a cold voice sounded in the corner.

"If the concubine asks you, you have to answer honestly, and if you say anything wrong, watch your head! Do you understand? ”

Xiao Shunzi was startled, and suddenly turned around, only to see a man with a cold face sitting in the dark corner of the hall.

Xiao Shunzi involuntarily swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

That man he knew, it was Concubine Pei's beloved son, known as the prince of Zhenbei who was known as Night Yama!

Junko's legs shook uncontrollably. What did he do wrong? Unexpectedly, the master of the labor prince came to ask him in person?

"Did you hear the king's words clearly?"

Yeli's voice became even louder.

Xiao Shunzi knelt down with a "plop", and said tremblingly: "Yes, yes, Wang...... The prince ......"

Ye Mengmeng glanced at Yeli and did not speak.

Concubine Pei's tone was relatively gentle: "Xiao Shunzi, you don't have to panic, you just need to tell me in detail about going out of the palace to buy medicine the day before yesterday, and you can't say half a word." I see? ”

"Yes, yes, Niangniang......" Xiao Shunzi replied while feeling apprehensive. Could it be that there is something wrong with the medicine?

Concubine Pei glanced at Ye Mengmeng and signaled that she could ask.

Ye Mengmeng coughed and said, "Father-in-law Xiaoshunzi, did you go out of the palace to buy medicine?" ”

"Yes, yes......" Junko glanced up at her secretly.

Isn't this girl the one who sees the doctor for her mother?

He had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

"Okay, then let me ask you, when you left the palace a while ago, did you go out alone or were you accompanied by someone else?"

"Just, just a slave ...... alone"

"Okay, then let me ask you again, where did you buy those pairs of medicines?"

"In ...... In the south of the city, Jirentang ......"

"Jirentang?"

Ye Mengmeng's voice suddenly increased. Yeli straightened his back and became focused.

Ye Mengmeng glanced at the figure in the corner, coughed, and said, "Okay, you will tell me carefully about the situation when Jirentang bought medicine!" ”

"Yes......"

Xiao Shunzi just wanted to reply, but the person in the corner spoke again: "Wasn't it in Luo's Pharmacy the first few times, why did you go to Jirentang this time?" ”

Yeli naturally knew that Jirentang was a shop opened by Jingjing, in order to avoid rumors, when he bought medicine for his mother in the past, he did not go to the shop opened by his sweetheart to buy medicine, but chose other shops.

Xiao Shunzi said in a trembling voice: "Back to ...... Back to the prince, the slave was originally bought in Luo's Medicine House that day, but it was only because they lacked a medicine in their shop that the shopkeeper recommended Tongrentang to the slave. The minion thought that since it was recommended by the shopkeeper, it couldn't be wrong, so he ......"

"Alright, move on."

"Yes......" Xiao Shunzi paused before saying: "Later, the slave arrived at Jirentang, and the shopkeeper took the prescription, but said that he couldn't understand the prescription......

"Fang Zi can't understand?" It's not strange that Concubine Pei is so strange.

"Yes, Niangniang, then, the shopkeeper said that the words on the square are like...... Like a book from heaven, he, he can't read ......"

Like a book from heaven? Night Drift moved, and subconsciously glanced at the slender figure.

He believed this, he was also a little dumbfounded when he saw Fang Zi for the first time, he didn't expect that the words written by Miss Houfu were crooked, not to mention the typos, and thanks to his research for a long time to understand.

Ye Mengmeng's face was a little unbearable. Isn't she just a simplified word that she writes? As for the book from heaven?

Concubine Pei had a smile on her face, glanced at Ye Mengmeng, and said, "Okay, what about later?" ”

"Later, a girl went to the back door with a prescription, saying that her owner happened to be here, and she took it to see ......"

Ye Mengmeng was shocked. "How long does it take to come out?"

"About a cup of tea......"

"Did their owner come out too?"

"Yes......"

"And what does the owner look like?"

Ye Mengmeng asked. Yeli couldn't help but prick up his ears.

“…… The proprietor is actually a young lady......"

"Is the young lady big-eyed, melon-seeded, snow-white, and beautiful?"

"Yes, girl, so you know the hostess?" Xiao Shunzi was a little confused.

Yeli's heart sank.
