Three hundred and twelve: Confession
When Qin Manhuai woke up, it was already almost dark, and it had been almost a day since he was poisoned in the morning.
Bai Chuheng took Chunyuan back to the Dingguo Mansion first, and the two doctors lived in the empty courtyard next to Su Ning Yuan in case of emergency.
The old lady was quick with her hands and feet, and after a while, she asked what she wanted to know from Qiu Lu's mouth.
Before, she only hit the board, Qiu Lu was still stubborn and refused to admit it, and then the old lady directly asked people to take the rice paper, and one by one it got wet and pounced on her face, death was getting closer and closer to her, and as the rice paper on her face became thicker and thicker, her breathing became more and more difficult, and she almost lost her breath.
It was the fear of death that made her tell the truth.
It turned out that Lin Manju's little servant found her and handed her the only pack of rat poison that Lin Manju had, that pack of rat poison didn't know how many years it had been placed, Su Yingxiao didn't know that the rat poison would lose its effect after being left for a long time, he only wanted Qin Manhuai to die.
"Lin Manju's little house?" The old lady asked suspiciously, "What is Lin Manju's little servant looking for you?" ”
"It's the eldest brother, the eldest brother asked the slave to poison the eldest lady with rat poison..."
"Then why did I find you? There are so many people in Su Ning Yuan, you are not the most trusted by the eldest lady, nor is it the most convenient to get close, it is better to look for you than to find Qiuyue and Qiuxia and the two of them. ”
The old lady's words hit the nail on the head, but Su Yao didn't take it into account.
Qiu Lu stood up, and couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time, and the angry Su Yao slapped the table, "You still don't tell the truth!" ”
"Say! The slave confesses... It was the second lady who gave the slave maid a sum of money before, and asked the slave and maid to tell her everything she knew about the big and small things in Su Ning Yuan, and the eldest son also knew about it, and knew that there were slaves and maids in Su Ning Yuan who made eyeliner for the second lady, so the eldest son found the slave and let the slave and maid do things for him. ”
"This night! If a man is grounded and still does these things, I must kill him, this evil animal! ”
"Wait." The old lady helped Bihe to get up, "Mother Zhou, take this girl Qiulu down, take someone to guard, don't lose it and don't die, Yao'er, now that Chinese New Year's Eve has just passed, do you still want to see blood on the first day of the new year?" This matter will be put on hold until tomorrow for the time being, there is no way to go wrong, the eldest lady is weak, let's go see her first. ”
In Su Ning Yuan, everyone took their steps lightly and handled them gently, for fear that a louder voice would wake up Qin Manhuai, who had just slept peacefully.
The old lady and Su Yao entered the door one after the other, Qiu Yue hurriedly opened the warm curtains, and the old lady asked, "Is the eldest lady sleeping?" ”
Qiu Yue replied, "I just slept for a while, and I drank half a bowl of fish soup, and the eldest lady said that she had no appetite, so the ten girls coaxed her to eat half a cake, and she basically didn't eat anything all day today." ”
"The body of a person who has been poisoned is weak, let alone vomiting for so long, it is strange that he has an appetite." The old lady was calm, "Tomorrow morning, I will order the small kitchen to make something light, don't put the fancy, such as shredded beef and chicken in the porridge, the eldest lady has a bad appetite and should not eat that kind of fishy goods, so that the people in the small kitchen are vigilant, don't let people take advantage of the loopholes, if there are not enough people, go to Changxi Zhaiti." ”
"This old lady cares." Qiu Yue whispered, "It's really hard for you today, when the eldest lady gets better, the slave will definitely tell her how much you love her." ”
The old lady raised her hand, "That's it, no one is trying to let her remember my good care about her, if something happens during the New Year, it's all bad luck, you take good care of her, you have your good son." ”
The old lady was helped back to Changxi Zhai by Mama Zhou and Bihe, and Mother Qiu also sent a section herself, Su Yao did not go back to Yu Hongyuan immediately, but stayed in Su Ning Yuan.
Yingxia was inside, and Cao Qianlian listened to these things outside, and her brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
"That slut surnamed Qin is really hard, and the person who poisoned her is too soft, if I have to poison her with two packets of medicine! But it's really strange, who is going to kill her? ”
"Lady, this matter can't implicate us in Yingxiaju, right?" Fluttershy asks, pretending to be frightened.
"Probably not, we have nothing to do with the people of Su Ning Yuan, except... Wait a minute! Cao Qianlian suddenly remembered something, his eyes were instantly full of horror, and he turned his face and asked the magpie, "Can you inquire in detail?" Who is the real poisoner, have they found out? ”
The magpie said, "That's not true, the people in the front hall are strict, I heard that the people in Su Ningyuan raised a lot, and the board also asked what should be asked, but there is still no explanation, if there is really any explanation, it is estimated that it will have a seizure at this time." ”
But Cao Qianlian is still not at ease, asking in one day today does not mean that he will not be able to ask tomorrow.
"You go and inquire again, go and inquire about Lin Manju's situation, don't be Ying Xiao's kid did something foolish that affects himself! and Su Ningyuan's side, who was hit by the board, whether it was autumn dew, we must find out. ”
Having said that, the old lady and the others deliberately concealed it, who would dare to tell the magpie the truth? Besides, the current magpie is not as beautiful as before, without Su Yao's care, and without Su Huiyao's care, the current Yingxiaju is like a plate of loose sand, no one takes them seriously, Su Yao and the old lady don't clean up Cao Qianlian is completely against King Heng's face, but this does not mean that they will also give the magpie a good face.
Sure enough, the magpie went out to inquire at night, Lin Manju didn't go in, someone was guarding at the gate, Su Ningyuan's people ignored her, asked three and told her one by one, saying that no one was taken away, when the magpie asked Qiu Lu again, the maid was stunned for a moment, and then said that Qiu Lu was sleeping well.
But this is strange, even if Cao Qianlian ordered, the magpie should also be careful, how could he take the initiative to mention the name Qiulu at such a time? Isn't that intentional to be noticed?
In Qinzhu Xuan, the little girl of Su Ning Yuan told Su Yunyao and Su Moyao these words.
"Isn't that magpie of the same mind as the Cao family? Why are you deliberately revealing a flaw at this time? Su Moyao was puzzled.
"I'm afraid that the magpie doesn't want to do things for the Cao family for a long time, her life and death are uncertain, the Cao family doesn't want to give her news, and hangs her like this, can she be willing? This matter has been finalized by the eldest brother, but it is not necessarily related to the Cao family, in my opinion, the Cao family should not know about it. ”
"Why do you say that?" Su Moyao asked.
If she did it, then she naturally understood the cause and effect, and she still had to go out to inquire? Besides, maybe she Yingxiaju still has rat poison, and the records in the treasury clearly say that her Yingxiaju people took a pack last fall, and the medicine is not more effective than Lin Manju's medicine? ”
"Then it seems that the eldest brother knows about it, and insists on going his own way without consulting her?"
"Maybe, she is walking on thin ice now, for fear of causing a little trouble, how dare she let her eldest brother risk poisoning her mother? If there is such a sign, I guess she herself will not be able to agree. ”
"It seems that this matter really has nothing to do with her."
Su Moyao was a little disappointed when she said this, because she felt that it would be good to be able to clean up Cao Qianlian.
"Cao's has been cultivating her body for a while, although she hasn't banned her feet, but she can't always come out of Yingxiaju, big brother, she can't control it, so naturally I don't know what he did and thought."
"Big brother does this, then you can't blame me for not caring about brother and sister!" As soon as Su Yingxiao was poisoned, Su Moyao's heart was furious.
The next day, Qiu Li led a group of people to rush into Lin Manju, and Su Yingxiao, who had slept on the bed on all fours, pulled him directly to the ground from the bed.
"What are you doing! How dare you do this to me, believe it or not, tell King Heng and let him take off your head! Su Yingxiao got up very angrily, and knowing that she poisoned Qin Manhuai yesterday but didn't poison her, she was very angry, not to mention that she was pulled to the ground early in the morning, and it is estimated that her back will be blue when she falls.
"Eldest son, don't shout, the old lady has something to call you." Qiu Li said.
"I don't need you to be a slave in my house and give orders!" Su Yingxiao got up and patted his body, "It's really bold to dare to treat King Heng's uncle like this!" Damn it! You guys deserve to die! ”
Qiu Li didn't give him face either, "Yo, I'm still a big brother, you know, the abortion of the seventh girl, and the fact that Princess Heng beat the seven girls in Yingxiaju a while ago, don't say that it's useless for the seven girls to come here, even if His Royal Highness King Heng comes in person, it's useless, it is estimated that he doesn't know who you are!" ”
"You brute! You've been a dog by my dad's side for so many years! I am your master, how dare you talk to me like this? Su Yingxiao stood up straight and pointed at Qiu Li, and was going to give an ear scraper when he went up.
Qiu Li has served Su Yao for many years, it is not easy to have such a place in the Su family, can you have any skills in your hands? Seeing Su Yingxiao's slap, he clasped his wrist with one hand, and in a flash, he buckled his hand to the back of his waist, and he almost shed tears in pain, but he still said ugly words in his mouth.
"You, a dog slave who did it with the master, I betrayed you when I turned around, and let people chop off your hands and feet, you don't know what to do, you dare to do it with King Heng's uncle, believe it or not, Lao Tzu killed you?"
"You let me go! You son of a, a monkey! ”
"Lao Tzu lifted your skin!"
This kind of scolding sound went from Lin Manju to Chang Xizhai, and the people sitting in Chang Xizhai heard it, Su Yingchen was quite speechless and said, "It seems that the big brother is here." ”
When I entered the main house, I saw that the family was all there except for Cao Qianlian and the married, and Qin Manhuai didn't come because he wanted to raise his body.
Kneeling on the ground, Su Yingxiao was not convinced at first, but then scolded and threatened for a long time and no one paid attention to him, and no one paid attention to him and slowly couldn't scold.
The two hands were neatly tied behind Qiu Li, Su Yingxiao's shoulders were very painful, and she scolded Qiu Li, a dog mongrel, was really ruthless.
