Chapter 11: He Xiangxiang is missing?
Walking in front of He Xiangxiang and said coldly, Jiang Cailing looked down, her red lips spit lightly, "He Xiangxiang, I don't owe you anything, Gu Jiming is there, if you have time, you shouldn't sprinkle it with me here, but you should think about how to make Gu Jiming fall in love with you!" ”
After saying that, Jiang Cailing brushed her sleeves and left, He Xiangxiang sat on the ground, her carefully depicted makeup was pasted, and her delicate hair bun was scattered, looking very embarrassed.
After returning to He's house, Jiang Cailing put the ruthless lamp and cloak in an invisible place, lying on the bed, the moonlight sprinkled into the room, she didn't know why her heart was very chaotic, tossing and turning, and only in the second half of the night did she feel sleepy.
The next day, when the window was dawning, Jiang Cailing woke up and saw Bai He's panicked expression, as if he was thinking about something, and he felt absent-minded when he washed and combed his hair.
"What's wrong with you?" Bai He's combing skills are very good on weekdays, and it won't make people feel pain, but today Jiang Cailing feels that her scalp is shaved by a wooden comb.
Bai He looked around and said in a low voice, "Girl, haven't you heard, the sixth girl is missing!" ”
He Xiangxiang is missing?
Jiang Cailing frowned, she was fine last night, how to say that she was missing, she disappeared, "You tell me everything you know!" ”
"It was after the Thousand Lanterns Festival ended yesterday that the six girls disappeared on the Jiuqu Bridge."
"Nine-curved bridge?" Jiang Cailing's heart tightened, the last place where she and He Xiangxiang met yesterday was Jiuqu Bridge.
She didn't have the overflowing sympathy to care about how He Xiangxiang disappeared, but she always felt that this matter was not simple, and it was very likely that it was for her.
As long as after investigation, everyone will know that the last person He Xiangxiang saw last night was her, and her motive for committing the crime was because she loved Gu Xiang, so she was jealous and killed.
Even though she was not the target of the mastermind behind this incident, she was also chosen to carry the blame.
Jiang Cailing thought of this, and the corners of her lips actually raised a trace of bitterness, whether it was in the previous life or in this life, why did so many people choose her to take the blame?
When the eldest prince was a teenager, she was abused by her favorite concubine because of her mother, and stole the poison she made to poison the favorite concubine.
Before the first emperor died, she asked her to set up a young emperor and kill the old ministers, and she carried the pot of listening to the government and harming the country and the people.
Now that she has become He Ling'er, she has to let her take the blame again, then she is really unwilling.
A few days ago, Jiang Cailing developed some medicine in the room, because the tools she used were really not handy, and some strange poisons could not be made at all, but by mistake, she made a strange itching medicine, named Baizhuosan.
She experimented with a mouse, the mouse was only contaminated with a little medicine powder, and the effect of the drug immediately attacked, and finally grabbed all her fur with her claws, and her body was covered with blood, and finally died of blood, and the death was cruel, and it was terrifying to see.
She didn't use it to harm others, she was going to use it for self-protection, but she didn't expect to use it so quickly.
After squinting her apricot eyes and letting Bai He pull a simple bun, Jiang Cailing walked quickly to the pharmaceutical room in the backyard, put away all the pharmaceutical tools, and went to Jiang Que's Nanhou Mansion.
Nanhou Mansion is a small number of founding fathers who live very well, Nanhou immediately handed over the military power after conquering the country, and then acted in a low-key manner, devoted himself to flowers and plants, and never participated in court disputes.
Nanhou Shizi is also a person of literary quality, he is not skilled in martial arts, abides by the golden mean, and is self-clean, if he doesn't marry Jiang Que, he is a transparent person in the court.
Nanhou Mansion is surrounded by cypress, the stone lion beads are guarded on both sides, the vermilion gate, the depiction is exquisite, and the door knocker of the beast head is hideous.
After telling the guards about their intentions, the guards saw that Jiang Cailing was dressed simply, and her whole body exuded nobility, and they couldn't help but want to think about the wording. And the other guard snorted coldly and looked at Jiang Cailing from a high ground, "How can we Nanhou princesses be able to see them if you want to!" ”
"You give this to the princess, and she will meet me." As she spoke, Jiang Cailing put a hollow thin wood with a swollen cowhide on the top into the hands of the guard who spoke later.
Hearing what Jiang Cailing said, she only felt that she didn't feel like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, but like a nobleman who had been in a high position for a long time, and subconsciously felt very deterrent, so she hurriedly handed over this thing to the princess.
After Jiang Que saw the cowhide dropper, his expression moved, and he said excitedly, "Who is it!" Who gave you this thing! ”
"It's a little girl."
"Come in, please!"
Seeing that the princess was so excited, the guards knew that they had offended the nobles, and hurriedly welcomed Jiang Cailing in.
Jiang Que is still dressed in plain green clothes, with a white hosta in his hair, since he learned that Jiang Cailing went, he was depressed, and now when he saw this familiar thing, his eyebrows were full of energy. Standing at the door and waiting, I saw a plain girl with simple hair from a distance, it was He Ling'er.
I was quite surprised in my heart, this is obviously a pharmaceutical tool that only Niangniang can have, how can Miss He Wu have it? When I thought of the previous Niangniang's appearance, I told her and Weimian to take care of He Ling'er, and the surprise in my heart disappeared a little.
Jiang Cailing half-squatted and saluted, and said in a soft voice: "Ling'er rashly came to find the princess, and asked the princess to forgive me." ”
"No need to be polite." Jiang Que helped her up, she noticed He Ling'er at the funeral last time, and always felt that He Ling'er was full of a bearing that did not belong to her age, and after sitting down for tea, Jiang Que asked the doubts in her heart, "What is the relationship between you and Empress Dowager Jiang?" ”
"Actually, Ling'er is...... Disciple of the Queen Mother. This is the excuse that Jiang Cailing thought of from the beginning, the identity of master and apprentice is like father and son, mother and daughter, Que'er is loyal to her, and she will definitely help her apprentice.
"Disciple?" Jiang Que will be suspicious, how could she not know that Niangniang accepted an apprentice?
"Ling'er studied medicine with Niangniang in the second year of Yuande, and at that time Niangniang had already left the palace."
In the second year of Yuande, when Jiang Que married into the Nanhou Mansion, after she left the palace, Jiang Cailing deliberately did not let her know about the messy things in the palace, so that she could be a princess with peace of mind, and she naturally didn't know who she accepted as an apprentice.
Seeing Jiang Que's incredulous face, Jiang Cailing continued, "I know that the princess and Niangniang have known each other for many years, and Niangniang said that I had talent and accepted me, Niangniang just wanted someone to succeed her mantle, and she didn't want others to know that I was her disciple." It's a pity that Niangniang was killed by an adulterer, and she didn't have time to see Niangniang for the last time. ”
said this, her eyes were red, for fear that she would not believe it, and she also took out the things in the baggage to testify, which were all pharmaceutical tools that others would not make at all.
Jiang Que was also sour in his heart when he heard this, and believed Jiang Cailing's words, others said that the Queen Mother was a generation of evil queens, but they didn't know that the Queen Mother did her best for the sake of the Great Zhou, obviously for the sake of righteousness, but she was burdened with a notoriety.
is not allowed to say their master-apprentice relationship, most of which is also to protect He Ling'er.
"Since Miss He is the apprentice of the Queen Mother, you don't need to see me, just call me a Jiang Yue, I don't know why Miss He came?"
"Then Ling'er is gone, just call me Ling'er. I did have a tricky business to see you today. My sixth sister disappeared last night, and I should be the last person to see her......"
Jiang Cailing told Jiang Que what happened to her and He Xiangxiang, "I think there must be some conspiracy in this, so I am going to put these tools here for the time being. ”
"Just keep it with me and get it back when you need it. If Ling'er has anything to say, just tell me, and I will do my best to help you. This is the silent whistle that Niang Niang once gave me, blow this whistle when you encounter a situation, and no one else can hear this sound, and then it will take us to save you. ”
As he spoke, he pointed to a bird with white feathers.
This bird's name is Bai Yu, and it was specially trained by Jiang Cailing.
The purpose of Jiang Cailing's trip is to seek Jiang Que's help and make her trust herself, and now Jiang Que lent her the silent whistle, which shows her trust in her, and after thanking her, she got up and said goodbye.
After returning to the He family, he saw the patriarch blowing his beard and staring in the main hall, and some authoritative people in the He family were also there, and the posture of the three halls of trial made Jiang Cailing feel very funny.
She should have thought that it was not the government that came first, but the He family, and it was really a "family".
"He Ling'er! Where did you get my Xiangxiang! ”
As soon as Jiang Cailing entered the door, she heard a sharp voice, and then saw a middle-aged woman rushing towards her, and Senbai's nails hit her face.
It is He Xiangxiang's mother, Wang.
Wang was wearing a gorgeous purple brocade robe with golden hairpins and beads, and he was crying at this time, shaking the mountains and shaking the mountains, and the original carefully outlined makeup turned into a ball, which looked a little funny.
Sideways to avoid He Xiangxiang's mother Wang's beating, Jiang Cailing opened a pair of innocent eyes, hid behind Meng Yun a little fearfully, poked out a head and said, "What's the matter, why is everyone here, neatly and neatly, whose birthday is it today?" And the eldest aunt, what's wrong with the sixth sister? ”
"Don't pretend to be foolish with me!" Wang cried so hard that he held a handkerchief in his heart and said, "We Xiangxiang haven't been home since yesterday's Thousand Lantern Festival, and the sedan chair man said that the last thing she saw was you!" After you asked her to get to the Jiuqu Bridge, she was gone! It must be you, you said where did you get our Xiangxiang! ”
"What, the sixth sister is gone? Auntie, don't worry, I did see the sixth sister last night, but I left first without saying a few words, and the sedan chair man in the house can also testify! Besides, I get along well with my sixth sister, how can I have a reason to put her in danger! ”
"You're naturally jealous! My Xiangxiang is better looking and better than you, so you are naturally jealous! ”
Hearing this, He Mingshan, who had not spoken for a long time, frowned, and a look of displeasure appeared on his always kind and elegant face, and he said in a deep voice, "Is it biased for my sister-in-law to say this!" ”
Seeing that He Mingshan was displeased, the Wang family was timid, but the eyes that wanted to see Jiang Cailing were still full of resentment and hatred, as if she had seen her kill He Xiangxiang with her own eyes.
