Chapter 48: Foreign Bodies

There is only a doctor in the palace, how can he easily come over to see an injury for a palace maid?

Meng Xilan thought about it for a while, and then asked Gao Fuli to go to Tai Hospital and invite Jiao Changqing over. Last time, thanks to his help, I just took this opportunity to thank him.

Jiao Changqing arrived in time, Meng Xilan got up to greet him, and saluted with a smile: "Master Jiao." ”

Jiao Changqing nodded lightly, her complexion was good, she was not sickly, her eyes were bright, and her appearance was completely different from the last time she was gloomy and tired.

"Thanks to Lord Jiao's help last time, I have to trouble you to take a look at my palace maid's leg injury again. She accidentally fell, and I was worried that she would hurt her bones. ”

Jiao Changqing only frowned when he heard this, and then looked at Bai Ling, who was sitting on the side.

Meng Xilan was not wrong to be worried, Bai Ling's left knee was already red and swollen, and it seemed that the injury was not light.

Jiao Changqing's expression became serious, he bent down, and after a careful inspection, he got up and said, "This is not a fall, but a beating, it seems that it may have injured the muscles and veins, or even worse." After saying this, he looked at Meng Xilan for the first time, his eyes burning with scrutiny and doubt.

Although he has not been in the palace for a long time, he also knows how many tricks the masters in the palace have to torture the minions.

Meng Xilan in front of her didn't look like a cruel and vicious person...... But who knows what her true face is?

Last time, she asked herself to help her pretend to be sick, which was inconsequential, it was a trivial matter. However, this time, she asked herself to come over again to see the injury of a palace maid? What does it mean? Did she want to cover up her misdeeds of abusing her minions?

Meng Xilan's face instantly became gloomy, and she asked Bai Ling, "How did you get hurt?" ”

Bai Ling lowered his head and shuddered, and said with a crying voice: "It's really the slave who fell by herself." Girl, the slave and maid have nothing to do, you let the slave and maid go back. ”

"If you really think of me as your master, tell the truth." Meng Xilan's cold eyes were filled with anger.

What the hell is going on? Who dared to beat her palace maid under her nose? She absolutely can't tolerate it!

Bai Ling's lips trembled with fright, his face turned pale, and he knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Meng Xilan was slightly startled when she saw this, and before she could speak, she heard Jiao Changqing next to her voice stop her: "Hurry up and help her up, her knees can't kneel anymore." ”

When Gao Fuli heard this, he hurriedly lifted her up from the ground with both hands, and said in a low voice: "Hurry up and tell the matter honestly, don't embarrass the master." ”

Not to mention that Meng Xilan was surprised, even he couldn't figure out what was going on.

After a few seconds of stalemate, Bai Ling sat down on the ground leaning on the chair and cried, "Girl, the slave is really scared...... I don't dare to say it. ”

Meng Xilan's patience ran out, and she threw down a sentence coldly: "If you don't say it again, I will hand you over to Mama Kong." I'd like to see if she can get you to speak? ”

Bai Ling gasped in fright, and then had to suppress his fear and said, "Yes...... It's the lord of Anning......"

Meng Xilan's expression became even colder when she heard this, and she tapped her fingers lightly, asking her to continue.

Here's how it happened.

When Bai Ling was cleaning up the incense burner in the courtyard, he accidentally found a fresh face walking around the courtyard, not looking like a person from Cining Palace.

Bai Ling was a little strange, and walked over to ask her a few words.

The palace maid couldn't say clearly, only that she was new.

Bai Ling became suspicious and quietly followed her, wondering where she was coming from. Who knows, when she walked to a remote flower path path, two more people came out of nowhere and pressed her to the ground. One of them stomped on her knee and called her nosy. After that, Zhou Lier appeared in front of her, explained the matter to her, and said that if she dared to go back to complain, she would be left dead.

Bai Ling wiped away her tears and continued, "She asked me to secretly put this thing in the incense burner, but the slave didn't dare to ...... So ......" finished speaking, and a small paper bag came out of the cuff with a shudder.

Actually, it was just an opportunity, she happened to come in to work, but when she was hesitating, she was discovered by Meng Xilan first.

Meng Xilan's eyes were slightly condensed, and he gave Gao Fuli a look, he slowly stepped forward, borrowed a handkerchief from Zhulu, and wrapped the paper bag.

Jiao Changqing has always maintained the posture of a bystander, quietly watching the changes. However, after seeing the things in Gao Fuli's hand, he felt that he couldn't continue to be silent, and suddenly said, "Let's take a look at what is in that paper bag?" ”

Meng Xilan nodded slightly.

Gao Fuli stretched out his hands, so nervous that he didn't even dare to gasp

Jiao Changqing cautiously opened the paper bag, only to see that there was a white spice about two inches in it, the thickness of a bamboo skewer, colorless and tasteless, just by looking at it with the naked eye, it was difficult to determine what it was.

According to Jiao Changqing's experience, the more colorless and tasteless it looks, the more toxic it is.

He couldn't help but furrow his eyebrows, and his expression became extremely serious. "Miss Meng, it's better to leave this bag of things to you for temporary safekeeping."

Meng Xilan shook her head: "No." What if this is evidence that someone else is trying to murder me? ”

Zhou Li'er asked Bailing to do this, and it was clear that she was coming for her.

Jiao Changqing glanced at her deeply, "What is this thing, I need to verify it myself, so it's better for the girl to be a little restless." ”

The palace maid just said it truthfully, this thing was given by the county lord of Anning. Come to think of it, once you make a big fuss, it will be a trouble for everyone.

Jiao Changqing just wants to save people, and doesn't want to cause trouble for himself. However, he couldn't just leave it alone, when nothing happened, nothing was seen.

Meng Xilan got up slowly, looked at Jiao Changqing, and suddenly asked, "Master Jiao, can I trust you?" If you found out what it was, would you tell the truth? Tell me, tell everyone in this house. ”

Today's incident was just a coincidence, but it was him again, and he encountered himself in such a thorny trouble.

Meng Xilan didn't know if she could trust him? Maybe, maybe not......

Jiao Changqing looked at the woman in front of him, unable to understand why she was so calm, no, it should be calm.

If it were someone else, it would be anxious and scary, even hysterical, and it would not be an exaggeration.

But in the face of her question, Jiao Changqing still replied quietly: "Girl, I can't promise you anything. However, what exactly is this paper package, I will definitely give you an explanation below. ”

His answer was honest, and the implication was nothing more than that he didn't want to get himself in trouble.

Meng Xilan nodded silently when she heard this, she couldn't be strong, let alone him.
