Chapter 70: A bite back
An Wanqing still had a polite smile on the corner of her mouth, and bowed to Nangong Shuo.
It wasn't until Nangong Shuo walked away that An Wanqing looked at Lan Zhu, "Hui Hui is livable." ”
Lan Zhu hurriedly got up from the ground and quickly caught up with An Wanqing and Xing'er, who had already entered the Haowang Mansion.
"Princess, I ......"
Without waiting for Lan Zhu to finish speaking, An Wanqing turned her head to look at her, "You don't have to explain, I know you didn't lie, you must have looked out because I was afraid that I wouldn't bring any money with me." ”
Lan Zhu breathed a sigh of relief.
Xing'er was stunned for a moment, and looked at her master strangely, obviously not understanding why the master didn't ask Lan Zhu.
An Wanqing naturally knew that Lan Zhu must have another reason for leaving the mansion, but at the moment, she could only turn a blind eye.
Back at Huiyi, Lan Zhu hurriedly took out the small bottle hidden in the cuff.
"What is this?" An Wanqing was stunned.
"Miss, in fact, Lan Zhu went out of the house this time to buy croton noodles." Lan Zhu took the vial and explained with a serious face.
An Wanqing obviously didn't expect Lan Zhu to be so smart, and sneaking out of the house under the pretext of buying croton noodles can completely dispel my suspicions about her.
An Wanqing understood that buying croton noodles was just Lan Zhu's way, and she just found a suitable excuse for her to leave.
"So you're going to buy croton noodles, that's great." Apricot looked excited.
"Be careful, don't leave a handle." An Wanqing reminded.
"Rest assured, princess." Lan Zhu's face was confident.
In the early morning of the next day, An Wan got up early in the morning, had nothing to do, and helped the little maid in the courtyard prune the flower branches.
After a while, Lan Zhu and Xing'er came over mysteriously.
"Miss, Xiao Cui of Lan Lingju took away the white fungus lotus seed soup made for you from the kitchen again." Xing'er snorted angrily, and then smiled again: "But don't worry, Miss, Xing'er put croton powder in that bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup." ”
"Now, Aunt Pei feels better." Lan Zhu was also excited.
"Alright, tell the kitchen to make another bowl, I'm a little hungry." An Wanqing said with a smile.
"Miss is just good-tempered, that's why Lan Lingju dared to kick his nose in the face to bully you." Apricot pouted.
An Wanqing smiled disapprovingly, turned around and walked towards the house.
It was almost noon, and the news came from Lan Lingju, saying that Aunt Pei had a bad stomach, and now she was lying on the bed with prostration, unable to stand up.
"It's just a matter of teaching her a lesson, how much have you let go?" An Wanqing frowned, and glared at Xing'er and Lan Zhu speechlessly.
"Who makes Aunt Pei always like to rob us of things, she deserves it! Princess, you won't feel sorry for Aunt Pei, right? Lan Zhu pouted.
"Princess Ben feels sorry for that bottle of croton powder."
An Wanqing looked helpless, "Do you know that if you just teach her a lesson, she will never make a big deal out of it, after all, she rushed to eat, and we didn't take the initiative to send it, so she can only suffer a dumb loss in this matter." However, now that she vomits and diarrhea and collapses so much, can she give up? Not to mention that the prince took the initiative to hear the news, even if she went to the prince to complain and beat her upside, the prince would definitely be soft-hearted when he saw her sick and crooked, but we were in a weak position. ”
As soon as An Wanqing's words fell, she saw the housekeeper walk into Huiyiju and said, "Princess, the prince has sent you to Lanling Ju immediately." ”
"Huh?" Xing'er and Lan Zhu's eyes widened and became nervous.
An Wanqing stood up from the stool unhurriedly, and smiled at the housekeeper: "Got it." ”
"Miss?" Apricot looked worried.
"The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, let's go." An Wanqing pulled Xing'er's sleeve and said seriously.
Xing'er followed her out of Hui Yixing, and the whole person was scared, and some regretted that she had put a whole bottle of croton powder in it, but it had affected her own lady.
When I came to Lanling Residence, before I entered Aunt Pei's bedroom, I heard Aunt Pei's wailing voice from inside, "Lord Wang, you must be the master of the concubine, the princess clearly wants the life of the concubine." ”
An Wanqing frowned, walked in hard, and bowed to Nangong Hao, who was standing in the room with his hands behind his back, "I've seen the prince." ”
Who knows, the little county lord ran over from the inner room crying, and beat An Wanqing with two small hands, "Bad woman, you are a strange woman, you want to harm my mother." ”
An Wanqing frowned, she couldn't care about a three- or four-year-old child, and gave Xing'er a look, Xing'er understood, and pulled the little county lord aside, "Little county lord, how can you beat the princess indiscriminately." ”
Seeing this, Nangong Hao finally spoke, and said coldly: "Butler, take Xue Ping down first." ”
The housekeeper hurriedly coaxed the little county lord to leave Lan Lingju.
"Tell me, what's going on with this bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup with croton flour?" Nangong Hao's eyes were sharp, he frowned and glared at An Wanqing, and asked.
"Back to the prince, Biyu is stupid, I don't know what the prince means?" An Wanqing opened a pair of big watery eyes and looked at Nangong Hao in a daze.
"Xiuling kept saying that it was the croton powder you sent someone to put in her white fungus lotus seed soup, would you know?" Nangong Hao questioned.
"Biyu is wronged, I hope the prince will investigate." An Wanqing bowed her head and said.
"Lord, you must be the master of the concubine, I knew that the princess was so jealous, and the concubine would stay in Guliang City." The sound of Pei Xiuling crying came from the inner room.
The maid Xiaocui walked out, "Lord, princess, she knows that our aunt will drink a bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup every morning, so she poisoned her aunt, if it wasn't for the aunt who drank a few sips and felt that the taste was wrong, otherwise, if she drank it all night, I am afraid that my aunt would not even die." ”
Nangong Hao's face was pale, he turned his head and glared at An Wanqing, and just about to get angry, An Wanqing took the first step and said: "Lord Wang, please look at the tray containing this bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup, and the mark engraved on it. ”
Nangong Hao was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at the tray, and there were three words clearly engraved on the tray, Hui Yiyi.
Large families have many affairs, so they are particularly particular, the degree of food and clothing is very clear, and the objects will be engraved with marks to avoid confusion.
"This bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup should be sent to Hui Yixing." An Wanqing pulled Xiao Cui's sleeve, brought her to the tray, and said sharply.
Xiao Cui raised her head and glared at An Wanqing, and snorted coldly.
This princess is obviously because her aunt robbed her white fungus lotus seed soup, so she put croton powder to take revenge on our aunt.
Nangong Hao was a little puzzled for a while, and looked at An Wanqing in surprise.
An Wanqing looked at him fearlessly, and said seriously: "Lord Wang, Xing'er beside Biyu is sloppy on weekdays, and it is common to take the wrong thing. Thinking about it, Xing'er went to the kitchen and inadvertently took away the white fungus lotus seed soup that should have been sent to Lan Lingju, while Xiaocui took away the bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup that should have been given to the princess. ”
Speaking of this, An Wanqing raised her voice and continued: "Lord, the person who should have vomited and diarrhea should be this princess, but I didn't expect that my aunt mistakenly drank this princess's white fungus lotus seed soup and suffered for this princess. ”
"You ......" Xiaocui obviously didn't expect An Wanqing to turn black and white upside down, her eyes widened angrily, she stretched out her hand to point at An Wanqing, only to hear a bang, and a small bottle fell out of her sleeve.
"What is this?" Nangong Hao frowned and looked at Xiao Cui.
