Chapter 254: The Truth Revealed
It was drizzling and the weather was hot and humid.
Yu Yu and his party took the umbrella to the outside of the courtyard of the outer study.
There was a small servant standing at the gate of the courtyard, and when he saw Yu Yu coming over, he hurriedly said: "Concubine Side, Steward Li is inside, and the slave will go to report first!"
Yu Yu smiled and nodded.
Seeing that the little guy had entered, Ye Ling muttered in a low voice: "Steward Li is so powerful, even the side concubine dares to stop him from coming!"
Yu Yu smiled: "This shows that Steward Li is in good hands!"
Ye Ling didn't hit the horse's hooves, and suddenly didn't dare to say any more.
Yu Yu looked at the faint greenery in the courtyard, and said in a low voice: "If even Li Rui doesn't believe it, how many people in this world can I trust!"
Li Rui had just taken a shower and was changing his clothes, and when he learned that the concubine was coming, he immediately greeted him with a white jade belt, and tied his belt while walking out along the verandah.
When he arrived at the gate, he stopped, tidied up his clothes, and happened to hear Yu Yu's words - "If even Li Rui doesn't believe it, how many people in this world can I trust."
He had mixed feelings for a while, his nose was sour, and he lowered his head and was stunned for a moment, and then he went out: "I've seen the side concubine!"
Yu Yu looked at Li Rui with a smile, and found that he seemed to have just taken a bath, his hair was wet and scattered, he was wearing a dark gauze robe, and a white jade belt around his waist, making him look thinner and thinner, so he said: "You also have to pay attention to your body, look too thin!"
Li Rui lowered his eyes, replied "yes", and led Yuyu into the courtyard of the outer study.
Ye Ling heard Yu Yu's words, and knew that the concubine was deliberately saying it to herself, and she was ashamed and regretful in her heart at the moment, and her face was a little hot.
When Yu Yu arrived at the porch of the main room, he stopped going in, stood under the porch and asked Li Rui, "Mr. Liu is still inside?"
Li Rui looked inside and said, "I just soaked the old prince in a medicinal bath, and Mr. Liu is doing acupuncture!"
Yu Yu waved his hand, and when everyone retreated a little farther, he lowered his voice and asked, "How is the situation of the old prince?"
Li Rui saw that Yu Yu had worry in her eyes, and knew that she was looking forward to the old prince's condition being stable, so that she could take the old prince into Beijing for treatment, so he said: "It's not good today, the old prince had fecal incontinence in the morning, and got a bed, I have already watched people clean it up!"
His clothes were also dirty, so he threw them away and took another shower.
Yu Yu sighed and said, "I'll hand over the courtyard of the outer study to you, replace it all with our people, don't let others get in!"
Li Rui nodded: "I'll be careful!"
Seeing that everyone was far enough away, Yu Yu said in a low voice: "Our prince is not in the capital, I'm worried about what kind of moth Jiang Zhen will have!"
What she is most worried about is that Emperor Yongtai will make Jiang Zhen the queen.
Although Lin Jia doesn't care about this, if Jiang Hao becomes the queen, the harem will definitely be controlled by Jiang Hao, and there will be trouble in the future.
Li Rui raised his eyes to look at Yu Yu, and said softly: "Don't worry, I will explain to Mr. Liu!"
Qingcha held the teacup and looked at Xiao Shizi.
It is said that Xiao Shizi is like a prince, but she thinks that Xiao Shizi is like Yu Yu, with a lively personality, active nature, full of vitality, and her eyes are full of anger.
Her hand trembled slightly: the man said that this medicine is highly poisonous, and if you want to go, you will die
But if the son doesn't die, her daughter will die!
Thinking of this, Qingcha finally made up his mind and brought the fine white porcelain tea cup to the mouth of the prince.
Ah Yin has been playing for a while, and he is a little thirsty, and when he sees the water handed over, he wants to drink it, but when he sees that the tea cup is not his usual crystal cup, he hesitates.
Qingcha bent down, and as soon as his hand tilted, he was about to feed Ah Yin.
Ah Yin flashed back.
Qingcha was in a hurry, and he grabbed Ah Yin and forced him.
At this moment, Ye Luxiao's right hand reached over like lightning, and snatched the tea cup from Qingcha's hand with skill, but picked up Ah Yin with his left hand.
Qingcha was stunned.
Yelu Xiaoxun stepped back and said loudly: "Li Hanxing, let someone go to the small kitchen to catch a rabbit!"
Li Hanxing also realized that the situation was wrong, and immediately called someone to catch the rabbit, but he protected himself in front of Yeluxiao and Ah Yin.
At this time, Ye Bi and Jin'er also ran over, both a little strange, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
Qingcha's face was pale, and he smiled reluctantly: "I'm afraid that the prince will be thirsty, so I will bring water to the prince."
Ye Luxiao's eyes were deep, and he said softly, "Really? Do you dare to take a sip of this water? ”
Qingcha knew that the matter was exposed, his body trembled, and he said: "I dare"
Since the plan has failed, her daughter can't be saved, and Wang Qingyu doesn't want their mother and daughter anymore, what's the point of her living!
Yelu Xiao really handed the tea cup to Qingcha's mouth.
Qingcha's heart was crossed, and she took a big sip on Ye Luxiao's hand, and the intuition of the strong sweetness couldn't suppress the bitterness, and soon, she found that she was numb from the root of her tongue to her throat.
Ye Luxiao quickly removed the teacup and handed it to Li Hanxing.
Jin'er also ran over, seeing that the corners of Qingcha's mouth were bloody, and the whole person froze on the wet ground.
When Yu Yu came in, he happened to see this scene, and immediately walked over quickly: "What happened?"
Seeing that Qingcha was on the ground, the corners of his mouth, eyes and nose were bleeding, Yu Yu immediately knelt down on one knee: "Qingcha, what's wrong with you?"
Qingcha intuitively felt that her body was very cold, obviously it was hot and humid weather, but she was shivering with cold, and she understood everything in her heart, but she couldn't speak, she could only look at Yuyu.
She knew that she was sorry for Yu Yu, but now it was too late to say anything, and poor Zi'er was still in the hands of that villain, not knowing whether she was alive or dead
Yu Yu took a deep breath. Hurriedly ordered: "Go and invite Mr. Liu over!"
Qingcha reached out and grabbed Yu Yu's hand tightly, his mouth was open for a long time, then he closed his eyes, and his hand also let go of Yu Yu's hand.
Li Hanxing squatted down and touched the end of Qingcha's nose, and said, "Concubine Fang, you're out of breath!"
Yu Yu refused to believe it, but looking at Qingcha's bleeding, she naturally understood that Qingcha was really dead.
Her mind went blank for a moment, and Ah Yin's "mother" recalled Yu Yu's senses.
Yu Yu got up, took the shade thrown into his arms, looked at Li Rui who was striding over, and ordered: "Li Rui, you arrange the funeral of Qingcha first, and everyone present will go to Mingjian with me!"
When he arrived in the bright room, Yu Yu hugged Ah Yin tightly, looked at Li Hanxing, Ye Bi and Jin'er who were kneeling on the ground, and said, "Get up!"
looked at Ye Luxiao, who was sitting on the chair in the east circle, "What the hell is going on?"
Ye Luxiao pinched the rabbit sent by the little maid in his hand, his expression was not like a fourteen-year-old boy, he got up and arched his hand and said, "Concubine Fang, please let me try it with a rabbit!"
Yu Yu nodded.
Ye Luxiao pinched the rabbit's mouth with one hand, and poured the remaining water from the teacup into the rabbit's mouth with the other.
The fat rabbit struggled desperately, but its movements became slower and slower, and at last it would not move, and blood flowed from its mouth, eyes, and ears, and its eyes were finally closed.
Ye Luxiao lifted the dead rabbit and let Yu Yu Yu see: "Concubine Fang, this tea is highly poisonous!"
Yu Yu was worried that Lin Yin was afraid, and hurriedly covered Lin Yin's eyes.
Lin Yin looked at the rabbit with bright eyes, his face was excited, and he was not afraid at all. He reached out to take his mother's hand away and watched with interest as Yeluxiao fed the rabbit medicine.
Yu Yu hugged Lin Yin tightly, and when she thought of Fang Cai Qingcha's death, her heart was like frying oil, and she said in a dumb voice: "Say, what's going on?"
Ye Luxiao and Li Hanxing just glanced at me and told me about the situation at that time.
Ye Bi's face turned pale with fright, and she immediately knelt down.
Ah Yin also calmed down at this moment, with maturity beyond age in her phoenix eyes: "Mother, I thought that this tea cup was not my crystal cup, so I didn't drink it, but that tea had to be fed to me, fortunately Uncle A Xiao saved me!"
Since he was a child, he drank water from a special crystal cup, and when he saw that it was not his own tea cup, he naturally couldn't drink it.
Yu Yu understood everything at this moment, she got up solemnly and bowed to Ye Luxiao: "Thank you!"
Ye Luxiao looked at Yu Yu, shed tears, and returned a salute.
He knew Yu Yu's influence on Lin Jia, so Yu Yu owed him a favor again, and there was always a time to pay him back!
After Yeluxiao and Li Hanxing left, Yu Yu looked at Ye Bi who was kneeling on the ground, and said lightly: "I told you not to leave, what did you do?"
Ye Bi's face was full of tears: "Concubine Fang, the slave maid relieved her hand, thinking that she would come back soon, but she didn't expect Qingcha to be."
She took a few steps forward, looked up at Yu Yu, and tears were all over her face: "Concubine Fang, please spare the slave and maid for the sake of the slave and maid who are diligent and prudent on weekdays, and the slave and maid will definitely take care of the son of the world in the future!"
Yu Yu said lightly: "Even if you are in a hurry, you should let Jin'er help you watch, but you don't."
Seeing Ye Bi looking at herself in a daze, Yu Yu said: "You made a big mistake this time, according to the rules set by the prince, you should be killed with a rod, you have been serving me for a long time, I will leave you with a life, let you go out of the house, you go, take all your things away!"
Ye Bi suddenly burst into tears, covered her mouth and cried.
Ye Ling had been listening to the side, and when she heard that Concubine Fang was going to drive Ye Bi out, she knelt down and cried: "Concubine Side, my sister has always been diligent, but this time she was careless, I beg Concubine Fang not to drive my sister out!"
Ye Bi looked at Yu Yu with teary eyes: "Concubine Side, the slave doesn't dare, I beg you!"
Yu Yu also had some contradictions in her heart, and at this time, she found that there were too few maids she could use, if Ye Bi left, Ye Ling would inevitably have to leave, and she would not have enough people here.
After thinking for a while, Yu Yu suppressed the boredom in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Ye Bi, you go out to find the housekeeper to get ten rods, if you commit it again, I will definitely not let you go!"
Ye Bi was overjoyed when she heard this, and immediately said, "Thank you, Concubine Fang!"
She wiped away her tears vigorously before getting up and retreating.
Yu Yu watched Ye Bi walk away, and her heart was in a mess.
She had always been cautious, but she didn't expect the danger to be so close to Ah Yin
In the afternoon, Li Rui came over, and he took out a very old purse embroidered with white plum blossoms for Yu Yu to see.
Yu Yu said softly: "This is what I gave to Qingcha many years ago, but I didn't expect her to keep it"
Li Rui took out a small rouge box from his purse, unscrewed the lid and showed it to Yuyu.
Yu Yu looked at the white powder inside and raised his eyes to look at Li Rui.
Li Rui's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a low voice: "Concubine Fang, this is the poison taken by Qingcha, Mr. Liu has already experienced it, it is a refined poison, and ordinary people can't get it at all!"
Yu Yu actually understood in her heart that Qingcha was afraid that she would be bribed and come to harm her Ah Yin!
Yu Yu reached out and touched Ah Yin's chubby hand who was sleeping beside her, and the only remaining warmth for the old man in her heart disappeared at once.
She is no longer her, and those who live in memory are no longer what they used to be.
She will move forward, and she will also throw away the warmth in her heart.
After the fifteenth, Li Rui sent to Zhaoxian to inquire about Qingcha and Wang Qingyu's Lingque returned.
Yu Yu stood in front of the railing, looking at the blooming moon flowers outside the railing, her eyes dark and gloomy.
Lingque continued to reply: "The subordinates asked the four neighbors of the Wang family, and they all said that Qingcha only left home with her daughter in May, and the reason why she left the house was because Wang Qingyu and the widow Qian on the same street got along, and forced Qingcha and her daughter to leave with a knife. After Qingcha left with her daughter, there was no news, and her subordinates searched all the way and found the inn where Qingcha had rested in Qingzhou, and learned that Qingcha's daughter was stolen at the inn, and Qingcha disappeared the next day."
Yu Yu understood everything in her heart that someone threatened Qingcha with Qingcha's daughter and asked her to wait in Shangzhou to find her.
In other words, even if she didn't see Qingcha at the time, Qingcha would have found it sooner or later.
Lingque said again: "The subordinates continued to investigate, and finally found that the person who stole Qingcha's daughter was quite similar to Li Cunming, the second brother of Li Cunyao, the chief housekeeper of Jiang Mansion, but when he went to chase Li Cunming, he got the news that he had already run away, and there was a box in the inn room where he lived, and there was a little girl's body in it, which had been dead for a month!"
Yu Yu reached out and folded a pink and white moon flower, gently tore off a petal, and said in a low voice: "Wang Qingyu and that widow Qian, you can't keep it, this matter is handed over to you!"
She already understood in her heart that this time it was Jiang Hao's ploy again.
She'll be back sooner or later!
As for Qingcha, although she is angry with Qingcha to harm Ah Yin, she also wants to avenge Qingcha!
How can a man who has been let down die while the adulterer and adulteress live happily?
Lingque replied "yes" and quietly retreated.
Li Rui had been standing quietly on the side, and at this time he came over and said in a low voice: "Concubine Fang, I'll choose a few more maids from my other village!"
His uncle loves to adopt orphans, and now they are all raised in Li Rui's Zhuangzi, but he can choose a few capable people to come over.
Yu Yu Yu let out a "hmm", looked at a dog's tail grass swaying in the wind outside, and the childish smile of Qingcha when they first met appeared in her mind, and her eyes moistened all of a sudden: Jiang Zhen, you wait!
