Chapter 399: Death
After Wei Qingqing filled her stomach, she pulled out a unique hairpin on her bun, twisted the hairpin head after twisting it a few times, and sprinkled the medicinal powder hidden in it under the rest of the dishes.
After she drugged the dish, she quickly twisted the hidden hairpin back into its original state, and after inserting it back into the hair pile, she deliberately said to the mother-in-law outside in a hard tone: "I'm full, you can remove the things!" β
The two mothers-in-law guarding outside the door did not dare to slack off on Wei Qingqing's orders, and quickly came in and removed Wei Qingqing's leftover dishes.
As soon as they brought out the last two dishes, they heard the door slammed shut by Wei Qingqing.
The older mother-in-law in a khaki coat drooped the corners of her mouth when she saw it, "She is worthy of being a noble princess, and her temper is really not small!" β
Another slightly younger woman, wearing a silver-gray bikini, hurriedly pulled her and made a silent gesture at her, "Don't talk nonsense! Carefully, Mama Li knows that she has picked your skin! β
The woman in yellow pursed her lips, walked away with the saucer and whispered, "Look! We bought so many good dishes, but we only ate less than a third, what a terrible thing! We bought this from the foot of the mountain with great difficulty! β
The woman in gray also looked regretful, looked at the table of leftovers that they moved outside, and sighed: "It's a pity that there are so many good vegetables left to feed the pigs!" I've never eaten anything so expensive in my life! β
The woman in yellow rolled her eyes when she heard this, and quickly came up with an idea, "Why don't we divide these dishes to fill our stomachs, and it can be regarded as a good meal for the one in it!" β
"This ...... That's not big, is it? The woman in gray hesitated, and when the master ordered them to remove the dishes, he didn't say that he would give them the dishes to eat!
"What's so bad? Anyway, if we don't eat it, we will pour it out! The woman in yellow said disapprovingly, and vigorously encouraged the woman in gray to let go, "You look at the braised pork cooked to shine, and you know that it must be delicious!" β
Hearing this, the woman in gray subconsciously glanced at the braised pork, and subconsciously swallowed her saliva after reading it.
But she has more eyes than the woman in yellow, and after thinking about it for a while, she slapped her thigh and proposed, "Why don't we call those people outside to eat together?" Anyway, there are so many leftovers, you and I can't eat them all! β
When the woman in yellow heard this, she quickly understood - if she was found eating alone, it was inevitable that someone would be unconvinced and poke things out!
But if everyone eats together, then everyone will keep their mouths shut about it! οΌ
"Or are you smart! I didn't think of that! I'm going to call them! The woman in yellow said happily.
After she finished speaking, she hurriedly went outside to call people, and after a while, she called all the people sent by Mama Li to watch and guard Qingqing, and ate with relish around the wide table of eight immortals outside!
At the same time, Wei Qingqing was lying on the crack of the door, quietly observing the situation outside.
She had already listened to the words of the two mothers-in-law, and when she saw that not only the two of them were greedy, but even other people were pulled over by them to share the leftovers, and she couldn't help but be overjoyedβjust wait for those people outside to eat the leftovers and be fascinated!
As long as they're all smitten, then she'll be able to run away in the open!
Wei Qingqing's mind was tossing and turning, and the mothers-in-law outside gradually began to stagger, and finally one by one they either lay on the table unconscious, or fell to the ground motionless!
When Wei Qingqing saw the incident, she immediately pushed open the door without hesitation, ran out without saying a word, and soon escaped from the small courtyard that trapped her!
After escaping the courtyard for a short run, she found herself seemingly trapped at the top of the hill.
She looked for a place with a wide field of vision, leaning against a large tree and looking down condescendingly, looking for the most suitable route to escape.
She saw several temple-like halls below from a distance, and guessed that she was taken away from Kaiyuan Temple by Concubine Rui's people, and then placed in another temple.
What is the closest temple to Moto-sa Temple?
Wei Qingqing began to search for answers in her mind......
At this moment, there was a faint sound of footsteps and conversation below!
The voice gradually approached, and it seemed that someone was walking in the direction where Wei Qingqing was, which made her startled and quickly dodged behind the bushes!
The sound of the conversation was getting closer and closer to Wei Qingqing, and Wei Qingqing gradually heard the content of the conversation clearly......
"Didn't you usually go to Kaiyuan Temple to offer incense and pray for blessings? Why did you suddenly change to Qingyuan Temple today? A slightly older woman asked the young woman who was traveling with her.
The young woman replied in a crisp voice: "I originally wanted to go to Kaiyuan Temple, but when I arrived at the foot of the mountain, I was stopped and not allowed to go up the mountain, and said that Kaiyuan Temple is not open to the public in the past few days, so let me go to other temples to burn incense and worship Buddha!" β
"Not open?" The older woman was taken aback when she heard this, and her tone became unconsciously serious, "Is something wrong?" β
The young woman saw that there was no one around, so she lowered her voice and said to the eldest woman of the same year: "I heard that when Princess Rui went to Kaiyuan Temple to pray for the old prince, she accidentally stumbled and fell into the big lake in the back mountain. β
Wei Qingqing's eyes widened in shock when she heard this-when did she fall into the water??
What's going on?
Why are there such rumors outside?
Ming Ye wouldn't think she had been drowned??
No way! She's got to get things straight!
After Wei Qingqing made up her mind, she quietly walked out from behind the bushes, pretending to be coming from another path, and called out to the two women who had slowly walked away, "The first two, please stay!" β
The two women who were talking in a low voice about the Kaiyuan Temple really stopped and turned to look at Wei Qingqing, who was calling them out.
"Is there something wrong with this lady calling us?" The older woman saw that Wei Qingqing was dressed luxuriously and spoke very politely.
"Where are you two going?" Wei Qingqing asked with a smile.
The older woman pointed to the wooden gourd she was carrying and explained, "We are going to the unsullied spring at the top of the mountain to fill some water and go home. β
"That's great! I also want to go and see the innocent spring, but because I came to Qingyuan Temple for the first time, I don't know the way, I don't know if I can go along? Wei Qingqing asked politely.
The other party readily agreed, and the three of them soon walked together.
On the way, Wei Qingqing intentionally or unintentionally introduced the topic to the closure of Kaiyuan Temple, "I also went to Kaiyuan Temple before, but there were soldiers who stopped me from going up the mountain......"
The young woman immediately echoed and repeated what she had said.
Wei Qingqing immediately seized the opportunity to ask: "Did Princess Rui really fall into the water?" β
