When she came to the yard, she saw Nian Xia and another maid watering the flowers, she walked over slowly, and sighed pretending to be annoyed.

"Sister Yuanqiao, what's wrong with you? Why are you sighing?"

Another little maid saw that fate was coming, and hurriedly got up to greet her, and Nian Xia also followed.

The master didn't know what was going on in the past two days, he was irritable, his appetite was not good, and he lost his temper at every turn! I was so annoyed! It was almost lunch, and I didn't know what to make in the kitchen.

"What should I do then? Sister Yuanqiao, do you want the chef to make some hometown dishes to try?" The little girl on the side hurriedly came up with an idea.

"No! The master of his hometown is tired of eating! This method will not work! Alas, the master's body is already weak, how can he get it if he doesn't eat anymore?"

Yuan Qiao immediately shook his head and vetoed, and sighed again.

"Coincidentally, what do you usually like to eat? It's better to let the small kitchen make some, Niang Niang just tastes a few bites, then you can also eat something!"

Seeing this, Nian Xia also stepped forward to make suggestions.

Yuan Qiao looked at Nian Xia and said: "This is also a way, but the master is usually not a picky eater, and he likes to eat a lot of things, so he has to make some of everything, so when does it have to be done?"

Nian Xia smiled and said: "It's okay, just ask everyone to go to the kitchen to help! As long as you can share your worries for your mother, the slaves and maids will definitely do their best!"

Yuan Qiao thought for a while and said, "Now it's all about this! Nian Xia, thank you! If it weren't for you, I'd still be worried!"

"You're so polite! It's a blessing for the slaves to be able to do something for the mother! Coincidentally, then let's go to the kitchen now and tell the chef to make lunch, or we won't be in time!"

Nian Xia put down the kettle, and the other little girl happened to be blessed, and then went to the kitchen together.

Yuan Qiao nodded, looked at Nian Xia's back, turned around and went to the next room.

The subordinates were all sent to the kitchen, and at the moment the subordinates' room was empty, so they happened to sneak into Nian Xia and another maid's room, and rummaged through it carefully.

But she rummaged through the beds and cabinets, but she couldn't find anything suspicious, so she sat down on the bed in frustration.

Could it be that the master guessed wrong? Nian Xia is not suspicious?

She had no choice but to stand up and want to go out, but suddenly felt something strange under her feet, and when she looked down, a floor tile under her feet seemed to be a little loose.

Her heart moved, and she crouched down to check, and found that several floor tiles were loose in the places next to the bed that were hidden by the curtains.

In fact, it is not a big deal that the floor tiles are loose, this Poria Xuan is not as gorgeous as the Agarwood Hall and Suoyun Pavilion, the master's room is fine, and it is not uncommon for the doors and windows of the lower room to be damaged from time to time.

However, when it comes to Nian Xia, it's worth checking out.

Yuan Qiao squatted on the side of the bed, carefully knocking on the loose floor tiles, and sure enough, he found that one of them had an abnormal sound. So she carefully turned the tile out.

The floor tiles were removed, and it happened that there was a small cave underneath, and there was a wooden box with mottled paint in the cave, she took out the wooden box, opened it, and found that it was an irregular yellow lumpy crystal, cold to the touch, and I don't know what it was.

The edge of the crystal has been cut with a knife, and it seems that it has been used.

Coincidentally, he couldn't understand the reason for a while, so he wrapped the thing in a handkerchief and put it in his arms, and then put the wooden box back in the crypt to restore the floor tiles, and then walked out of the lower room, and after seeing that there was no one left and right, he hurried back to the main house of Poria Xuan.

"Master, do you think there is a problem with this thing?"

After returning to Poria Xuan, Yuan Qiao told Min Qingrou what had just happened, and took out the irregular yellow crystals from his arms and presented them to Min Qingrou. I was carrying this thing for a while just now, and I felt a chill in my heart, and I couldn't help but endure a shiver.

Min Qingrou looked at the thing that Yuan Qiao was holding, and her face changed suddenly at a glance. "It's ......"

She jerked her head up at Yuan Qiao and asked, "Where did you find this thing?"

"Nian Xia is under the bed. Yuan Qiao replied truthfully.

"Okay! great!" Min Qingrou's face flashed with a hint of coldness, "I said why I've been getting chills for no reason lately, it turns out that this thing is doing it!"

"Master, what the hell is this?" Yuan Qiao held the crystal, and his palms felt cold and wet, and he couldn't help but shiver again.

"Coincidentally, you put this thing down quickly, it will hurt your body if you hold it for a long time!" Min Qingrou commanded with a slightly anxious face.

"Huh?" Yuan Qiao heard this, and hurriedly put the crystalline on the table, and the chill on his body was reduced a little.

"Go find a wooden box and put this thing in isolation. I'll tell you what it is. Seeing that fate was skillful, Min Qingrou put down the thing and ordered again.

When Yuan Qiao heard this, he immediately found a vermilion lacquered wooden box, put the thing in, and when he picked it up, he unexpectedly shivered a few times, and after loading it, he put it into the bottom of the cabinet, and then returned to Min Qingrou.

"Master, what the hell is this?, why is it so cold?" Yuan Qiao rubbed his palms vigorously, which dispelled the coolness, and raised his head to look at Min Qingrou puzzled.

Min Qingjiu said: "This thing is called 'Blood Citrine', which is made of polar ice chips, snow dew in the Tianshan Mountains, and more than a dozen kinds of cold medicinal materials. Especially women and pregnant women, it is strictly forbidden to come into contact with them! Otherwise, the mild ones will be cold and evil will enter the body, and the convulsions will be dreamy, and the heavy ones will be numb in the hands and feet, and the five internal organs will be damaged!"

When he heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat! After the shock, a trace of anger suddenly rose.

"This! How dare you use this evil thing to murder your master! I will definitely dismantle this into eight pieces!"

Who knew that Min Qingrou heard this, but shook her head and said, "She?

"What do you mean by that, master, I dug this out from under her bed with my own hands!"

"Although this blood citrine is a cold and evil thing, it can be widely used in pharmacology according to the medical codex, but this thing has a cumbersome configuration, expensive raw materials, and is an extremely precious medicinal material, and its value is even more expensive! Ordinary people can't afford to use it! Nian Xia is a cheap maid, how can there be such a thing? If my guess is right, this blood citrine must be taken by Luomei's slut to let her murder me!"

Min Qing's soft eyes flickered, and at this moment he finally understood that this thought of Xia Toucheng must be just a bitter trick!

"Master, let's simply report this matter to the prince, so that Luomei will inevitably be able to escape sanctions!"

Min Qingrou shook her head and said, "No, this blood citrine was secretly retrieved by you, and no one has stolen it, how can you prove that Luomei is guilty?"

"Then let's arrest Nian Xia and torture her and make her confess!"

"That's not going to work! What if she dies and doesn't admit her guilt? Maybe Luomei will take this opportunity to bite us back and turn over! I can't be so cheap for her!"

Min Qingrou snorted coldly.

After being reminded by Min Qingrou, Yuan Qiao suddenly calmed down and said, "It's still thoughtful to the master, but what should I do now?"

Min Qingrou thought for a while and said, "Coincidentally, after lunch, you will bring Nian Xia to see me, and say that her idea makes me have a great appetite, and I have a heavy reward!"

"Yes, the slave obeys the order!" "Yuan Qiao knew that Nian Xia, the, would not be able to escape this time!

Min Qingrou sneered in her heart, Luomei was in Fuxiangyuan, but she was still thinking about her sister in her heart, if she didn't repay the favor, she would really live up to her intentions!

Since she is in such a hurry to get rid of her, then she is welcome!

After lunch, Nian Xia was brought in as scheduled, and Yuan Qiao turned around and closed the door and stood beside Min Qingrou.

"The slave knocks to see Concubine Rou!"

Min Qingrou glanced at Nian Xia, who was kneeling respectfully on the ground, and asked softly, "Nian Xia, are you feeling better?"

Nian Xia raised her head and said with a grateful face: "Thank you Niangniang for worrying!

"Oh, that's good. By the way, are you still used to living in Poria Xuan, is there anything uncomfortable?" Min Qingrou asked with a smile on her face, as if she was concerned.

Nian Xia's heart moved slightly, and he hurriedly bowed his head and said: "Back to Niangniang, everything is fine with the slave!

Min Qingrou nodded and said: "Nian Xia, if you have any needs, just ask! Favored by the prince, our Poria Xuan has added many new faces, I can't take care of it for a while, if there is anything you can't take care of, just bring it up!"

"Niangniang!" When Nian Xia heard this, she hurriedly bowed her head in horror and said: "Niangniang is serious! The slave and maid are rescued by Niangniang and only then can they pick up a life! The slave and maid can stay in Poria Xuan is a great favor to the slave and maid! The slave and maid dare not ask for anything!"

Min Qingrou smiled, raised her hand and said, "Look at you, what are you doing so nervously?

"Xie Niangniang!" Nian Xia got up and stood aside with his head down.

Nian Xia's impassivity made Min Qingrou reaffirm the suspicion in her heart, this Nian Xia's heart is so forbearing, it would be a joke to say that her mind is simple! However, it seems that it is still a little difficult for her to lure the snake out of the hole, so she has to change other moves!

"Nian Xia, I heard Rong Tai say that you used to be a consular maid in Poria Xuan, and you were quite capable, but now you are asked to be an inferior maid, but I have wronged you?"

Min Qingrou saw that Nian Xia did not show any flaws, her eyes lit up, and she said with a smile.

Nian Xia hurriedly replied: "Back to Niangniang, the slave and maid are not wronged! The slave and maid can return to Poria Xuan to serve is already a great blessing for the slave and maid! No matter what the mother asks the slave to do, the slave and the maid are willing!"

Min Qingrou smiled, got up and walked in front of Nian Xia, gently took her hand, and said slowly in her slightly surprised gaze: "Nian Xia, you are a smart person, you should know that Poria Xuan is not what it used to be, and if you want to have a place in Poria Xuan, you naturally need to make some contributions to Poria Xuan." Do you understand?"

"Slave maid...... Got it. Nian Xia replied with his head bowed.

Seeing that Nian Xia didn't pretend not to understand, Min Qingrou sighed and continued: "Alas, you also know that now that I am in power, how many pairs of eyes are staring at me! You say, 'What should I do?'
