XXVIII. Conspiracy III
It was Xing'er who was called in by Mrs. Yang to reply, she was wearing a snow-blue dress, holding her beard, and she knelt down as soon as she entered the door.
I haven't seen her for a few days, and she looks like she's lost weight.
"Back to Your Highness, lady, Madame Yang." Xing'er said clearly: "I saw Chen Huizhen go out in the afternoon, she didn't go to the front yard, but went around the back porch, and came back after a meal, her face was very ugly, as if she was in a hurry, and she turned around to the bed and tucked something, and hurriedly went out again." I was a little suspicious, flipped through it, found this thing, and didn't dare to make up my own mind, so I went back and forth to Madame first. ”
Mrs. Yang took out a yellow paper bag from her sleeve and handed it to Ah Fu.
Ah Fu took it and looked at it, Li Gu stretched out his hand, and Ah Fu put the yellow paper bag in his hand.
Li Gu asked softly, "Do you know what this thing is?" ”
Xing'er hurriedly shook her head: "The slave didn't know, and she didn't dare to open it." ”
Li Gu nodded slightly, put the medicine bag on the table, Madame Yang asked her to go out, and then the two eunuchs came in with Chen Huizhen. Her face was pale, but her expression was not particularly panicked. Ah Fu couldn't say why, as soon as he saw her dark eyes, he felt a breath in his heart.
The fright, the rage, and the sadness that had accumulated from the afternoon to this point now seemed like water boiling a pot, and the lid was about to be opened.
Mrs. Yang asked in a deep voice, "What did you do in the small kitchen in the afternoon?" Who instructed you? Where does the medicine come from? ”
Chen Huizhen was not in a hurry: "Madam, I can't answer a word if you ask." I didn't go to the kitchen in the afternoon, and I don't know what kind of medicine you are talking about, let alone the word "command". ”
"What a sharp mouth." Mrs. Yang pointed to the medicine bag that was put back on the table: "There are all physical witnesses, do you still want to deny it?" He instructed: "Drag her to the back, lock her up first, take good care of her, and don't run away, let alone die." ”
Chen Huizhen knelt up straight: "Wait." Madam, it is true that I caught the thief and took the stolen goods, and I have no way to prove that this paper bag is not mine. But who can say that this paper bag is mine? Who can't carry such a small thing in a sleeve and purse? Whoever sees this thing coming out of me, I am convinced. Otherwise......"
Mrs. Yang's face was pale, this kind of thing should not be publicized, and she was about to let people drag her down, Li Gu gently tapped her finger on the desk: "Let that palace maid come in and talk to her face to face." ”
Mrs. Yang didn't disobey him and let Chuan Xing'er in.
Both of them knelt, Xing'er looked a little silent and cowering, and Chen Huizhen raised her head, looking like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water.
"It turns out that the witness that Mrs. said is her, I don't know how she told Mrs. about it?"
Xing'er whispered what she had just said again.
"You mean, it came out of the house where I lived with you, and who saw it come out of my bed? Only you see it, you say it with your own mouth, right? Chen Huizhen raised her head and said without evasion: "Madam, won't she be a thief and cry out to catch a thief?" ”
"You talk nonsense!" Xing'er's voice also raised: "These two **** are not right, you just went out this afternoon when others were cold, and you didn't go to the front yard and detour from the back porch?" ”
"You went with me? Did you see me go to the kitchen with your own eyes? I obviously thought it was hot in the house, so I went around the back porch and went to the pool under the tree to cool off for a while. Chen Huizhen's face raised: "From beginning to end, it's just what she said, what she saw." Is that what she said so credible? Then let me ask you, Xing'er, who gave you this yellow paper bag to let you find a way to put it in the meals of His Highness and the lady? In the afternoon, I went out to the pool by the back porch to cool off, where did you go? ”
Xing'er didn't expect her to ask this, and after being stunned, her face turned red, and she stammered angrily: "You, you still bite back!" ”
"You don't have to use words to push. If you don't say it, I'll say it for you. There was no one in the kitchen at this time in the afternoon, you must have inquired, as soon as I went out, you went to the small kitchen to give medicine, but you were unexpectedly bumped into by Ruiyun, you were not caught red-handed, but you knew that this matter would definitely be investigated, so you remembered to plant it for me, right? When I go back to the house, I don't look like you're right. You also pretended to turn over my bed, and the wicked person sued me first, and went to Madame to frame and denounce me! Hmph, do you think that by doing this, you can convict me, and you will get away with it? ”
Xing'er stared at her face, her body didn't know whether she was afraid or trembling angrily, and kowtowed heavily and said, "Your Highness, lady, Mrs. Yang, this person is too good at quibbling, please don't believe her!" I have been with Sister Afu since I entered the palace, no, I am with a lady, my person, a lady knows best. I came from Defu Palace to Taiping Palace, and I have never been separated from her. Chen Huizhen is different......"
I have to say that Xing'er's defense is also very reasonable.
She has indeed always been the same as me, and she entered the door of the Taiping Hall after leaving the door of the Queen Mother, and the experience was simple and simple. If someone is behind it, then Chen Huizhen from Yulan Palace is even more suspicious.
"Yours as a person? You know who you are best known only to yourself. A sneer appeared at the corner of Chen Huizhen's mouth: "The little mouth is very dexterous, and you want to excuse yourself with the lady's affection?" The lady has been with you since she entered the palace, and she is the same as a little palace maid, but you will only drag your feet to find trouble from beginning to end, and the lady will take care of you, how have you ever done a half-thing for the lady? It's the current bad job, and it's Mrs. Yang who the lady asked for you that you just came through, right? ”
Xing'er's face turned pale, and she retorted: "You don't have to pour sewage on me, whoever did it will do it." You said you went to the pool to cool off, who saw it? The paper bag did come out of your pillow cover, and you can't resist it! ”
"You said it came out of my pillow cover, but who saw it?" Chen Huizhen said aggressively, and suddenly turned her head and kowtowed to Ah Fu: "Lady, there is something buried in my heart for a long time, I have always cared about entering the palace together and getting along with the same house, and I didn't say it, but Jiang Xing'er is vicious, I don't offend her, but she won't let me go, and I can't help but say it." Do you remember that serious illness you had in the winter? ”
As soon as she said this, Xing'er's face suddenly changed, and she opened her mouth to stammer, unable to hide her panic.
Ah Fu looked at her calmly: "What? ”
"Actually, the lady's illness is just a small cold, and you can get better by taking a few doses of medicine. But it took almost a month to get better, and the body also lost a lot, doesn't the lady think it's strange? The imperial doctor's diagnosis is right, the prescription is right, and the lady is also careful to take care of it, why is the illness not good? ”
"No, no, lady, don't listen to her ......" Xing'er's words were interrupted by Chen Huizhen's sneer: "Lady's illness has not been good, that's because the medicine is not taken correctly!" Some people are jealous of your kindness and ingenuity, and deliberately remove the most important herbs from the prescription! Jiang Xing'er, at that time, you lived in the same house with the lady, and you cooked her daily life, diet, soup and medicine, what do you say about this? ”
"You, you are talking nonsense...... I didn't, I didn't ......"
"Before I said it was you, you jumped out and buttoned this stinky shoe on your head." Chen Huizhen's words were sharp: "At that time, I felt that something was wrong when I saw you decocting medicine, but I didn't think about it!" Then one day, I finally took you out of the herbs and dug up the things buried in the rockery. You hate the lady in your heart, you don't want her to get better, and you want to kill her! Chen Huizhen looked at Jiang Xing'er, who was already trembling like chaff, and said coldly: "At that time, you harbored evil intentions. Now that the lady has become a noble person and a master, you are naturally even more resentful in your heart, and you want to fight other ideas. At that time, I still keep all the medicinal herbs you stole and buried, in the cloth bag on the edge of my box. If Madame doesn't believe me, send someone to fetch it and let Jiang Xing'er take a look at it herself! ”
