Chapter 179: The Princess's Intervention
As soon as the words fell, Su Xiyun reached out and grabbed her left hand and raised it, only to see in the morning light. The nails on the slender jade hand were like onion tubes, but they were covered with bright red danko, but when I looked closely, I saw that there was a little white powder hidden in the cracks of the slender nails.
didn't understand it, but that Xiuyue's face changed instantly, and she suddenly struggled desperately, wanting to get rid of Su Xiyun's restraint, but unfortunately Su Xiyun had already guarded against her. At that moment, she shook her hand gently and skillfully, and Xiuyue was immediately thrown out, screaming and falling to the ground with a scream. It was like the sound of a heavy sack falling.
Su Xiyun ignored her anymore, turned to Jingyi and said, "County Lord, quickly ask the doctor to come and examine the powder in her fingernails, it may be poison!" ”
The county lord of Jingyi had already been stunned by the scene in front of him, and he was speechless at all. She didn't understand why her maid was still looking righteous just now, but at this moment, she was as embarrassed as a dog jumping off a wall. What's going on here?
However, although she couldn't say anything, she still gave the grandmother next to her a look and asked her to invite the house doctor again.
Mama answered and left.
At this moment, Xiuyue didn't care about her lord's questioning gaze, didn't care about getting up from the cold ground, and didn't have time to think about when the doctor would come, but hurriedly lowered her hands. Desperately shaking off the white powder hidden in her fingernails. All of a sudden, it shook off a little. She thought she was doing how hidden she was, but how could she avoid her actions from the eyes of the servants in this hall, from the Jingyi County Lord, Su Xiyun's sisters, to the Ziwei Courtyard?
was originally a smart person, but in a hurry, he also did such a stupid thing. Su Xiyun looked at Xiuyue and showed a mocking smile.
Everyone's expressions Xiuyue didn't have time to pay attention to it at all, just before that. How she longed for the arrival of the doctor. Because that can condemn the laughing and laughing person in front of him. But now, how much she didn't want the doctor to come over, because as soon as the doctor came, she poisoned the birds and sparrows, and the crime of blaming Miss Bofu would be established, and what awaited her was a bottomless abyss.
Despite all the entanglement in her heart, Xiuyue's heart finally became clearer, and at this moment, she finally realized how stupid her act of shaking off the powder in her fingernails was, so she stopped, and then quietly got up and knelt there. He didn't even look up at his own Lord.
Su Xiyun smiled coldly and said, "If these things weren't poison, I don't think she would have put them between her fingernails, which is already very abnormal in itself, and when the doctor comes, everything will be known." ”
Xiuyue's shoulders shook uncontrollably, and then she calmed down again, and there was no expression on her little face.
Su Xiyun glanced at it, and then turned her gaze to the county lord of Jingyi, at this time, she was surprised to find that this girl who always had a happy smile on her face in the past, but at this moment, she was black clouds and angry, and her eyes staring at Xiuyue were actually full of strong anger. Su Xiyun smiled slightly, didn't say anything more, and waited for the arrival of the house doctor.
This time was different from just now, when waiting for the government doctor to come, no one in the hall spoke, and everyone's expression was very solemn.
A moment later, there was a commotion at the door.
The county lord of Jingyi frowned, and at this time, the mother-in-law guarding the door reported: "County lord, the princess has arrived at the gate of Ziwei Courtyard!" ”
Su Xiyun's expression changed, princess of the county? What did she come to do? Could it be that this incident happened in such a short period of time, and it had already reached the ears of the princess of the county? She suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart, and she was not sure about it at this moment.
At this time, Su Xiyun's sharp eyes found that Xiuyue, who was kneeling in the hall, had a strange smile on the corner of her mouth, although she lowered her head.
Su Xiyun's heart moved.
But this is not the time to worry about these at this moment, the princess of the county came, Su Xiyun hurriedly stood up, and followed behind the county lord of Jingyi with Su Qianyun to greet the princess, but they just came out of the hall, and when they saw the princess of the county in a bright red suit, she slowly walked in surrounded by a maid.
Several people hurriedly saluted. The maids below had already fallen to their knees. The county lord of Jingyi ran over with a smile, directly took the county princess's hand and said with a smile: "Mother, aren't you feeling unwell?" What's wrong with it? "Dumb girl every blood.
The princess of the county smiled and scratched her daughter's nose, and then turned her gaze to Su Xiyun, who was standing there.
I haven't seen her for a few months, but this girl is getting longer and wider, and the peerless elegance of her eyebrows and eyes has been revealed, no wonder she misses her children every day, and she can't be interested in doing anything. It's really beautiful! The princess sighed in her heart, but she still said with a smile on her face: "Why do the two of you have time to come over to play today?" It must be my ignorant daughter pestering you, isn't it? It's just that you're also polite, why don't you get up quickly? ”
"Princess Xie." Su Xiyun and Su Qianyun straightened up.
The princess of the county immediately took the hand of the county lord Jingyi and entered the house with a smile, followed by the Su Xiyun sisters. When Xiuyue, who was still kneeling there upright, the princess's footsteps paused, and then still walked up, and the county lord Jingyi sat down beside his mother.
"Two girls, you're welcome, sit down." The princess said with a smile.
"Princess Xie." Su Xiyun thanked her, and then sat down on the chair with Su Qianyun.
At this time, the princess of the county spoke, and said to the county lord of Jingyi: "Yi'er, I heard that a pair of thrushes you brought back from the south a few days ago were poisoned today, but is it true?" ”
Maybe the county lord of Jingyi really loves this pair of birds, and when he heard what his mother said, he felt a little sad on his face, and nodded after a while.
The princess immediately asked, "Has the murderer been caught?" ”
Lord Jingyi shook his head and said, "Interrogation." ”
The princess's gaze swept around the hall, and finally landed on Xiuyue, who was kneeling in the hall.
"She's a murderer?"
Lord Jingyi nodded, and shook his head again: "Ten are her, but the doctor has just arrived, as long as you check it, you will know if it is her." ”
The princess frowned and said, "What is the matter, you can tell me carefully." At that moment, the county lord of Jingyi told his mother everything that had just happened, including Xiuyue's confession at the beginning, and later retorted and told them one by one.
When the princess heard this, she didn't look at Xiuyue who was kneeling on the ground, but set her eyes on Su Xiyun, who had been sitting there quietly and didn't make a sound.
"Miss Su, Xiuyue said that when she went to the kitchen to get food, only you two sisters stood in front of the birdcage, yes or no?" The princess asked softly. The tone was kind and tight, but Su Xiyun felt a pang in her heart when she heard it.
She couldn't figure out what the princess meant. In this matter, a discerning person knew at a glance that it was Na Xiuyue who secretly hid poison and framed her. The poison hidden in Xiuyue's nails has been revealed, but the princess of the county put aside these things, and instead opened her mouth to ask her about these inconsequential things, why is this?
Su Xiyun has a thousand questions in her heart, one question. But at this moment, in full view of everyone, she was not allowed to carefully scrutinize the joints. Since the princess of the county opened her mouth to ask, at that moment, she replied: "Back to the princess, in fact, the little girl doesn't know when Xiuyue went to the kitchen, and she doesn't know what to do, after all, she is the monarch's personal maid, and we can't ask." Nor is she obligated to give us a retribution. Our sisters just saw that the county lord was eating, and it was not good to disturb the side, so they went out of this hall, and saw that the birds under the porch were a little interesting, so they walked over, who knew that the Xiuyue would come at this time. What the princess said, we don't understand. ”
Speaking of this, Su Xiyun paused, and then said: "We just walked over with the front foot, and Xiuyue arrived with the back foot, so there is no question of who will stay in front of the birdcage first." If the princess insisted on saying that there was, then she would have to check it carefully, after all, when the little girl and her sister came to the porch, they didn't see anyone. ”
In the quiet hall, only Su Xiyun's voice was not in a hurry, flowing through the hall like a trickle.
After Su Xiyun finished speaking, no one spoke in the hall, and the atmosphere was quiet and weird.
But a smile appeared on the princess's face.
Lord Jingyi looked at this, and then at that, his mouth opened, but in the end he didn't say a word.
The princess suddenly opened her mouth: "What Miss Su said makes sense, and she deserves to be a famous family." ”
Su Xiyun smiled slightly: "Thank you Princess Jun for her praise, Xiyun is ashamed." But if you want to talk about the famous family, it should be the lord of Jingyi, the princess's words, don't you want me to wait for shame. ”
The two of you said a few words back and forth, and Su Xiyun's heart suddenly tensed. This is because she heard a different emotion from the tone of the princess. In the past, the impression of this princess of the county has always been amiable and there is no princess, but today, this feeling in Su Xiyun's heart has been shaken a little.
In this county palace, not only the county lord of Jingyi has changed from before, but even the princess of the county is the same. Could something unknown happen?
Su Xiyun suddenly remembered that Shi Qi Junhan. I wonder if he has changed? Thinking of this, Su Xiyun felt a stirring spirit all over his body, he was already perverted enough, if he changed again, he might have to become something! Su Xiyun suddenly had the idea of leaving this county palace immediately, the farther away the better. It's best not to get along with each other in the future.
