After all, this is Changming Palace, even if Jinxiu wants to ask something, he must beware of whether there are Shen Ze's eyes and ears around.
Lu Yingquan showed a grateful smile to Aunt Jinxiu, and then sent Aunt Jinxiu away, and then lay on the bed, grinning in pain, and the slightest movement behind her back was a severe pain.
However, Furong and Xiaoxi, as well as other palace people in Changming Palace, watched Lu Yingquan being sent back by Aunt Jinxiu, which shows that Lu Yingquan still has some status in the heart of the Queen Mother.
"Lord Lu, it's better for the slave to give you medicine. Furong led the way into the house, walked to Lu Yingquan's side, and wanted to give her medicine.
Lu Yingquan was actually injured yesterday, this Furong came to serve, and the words she said had already aroused her vigilance, and she said that the emotion of "the same person is not the same life" was just to dispel Furong's vigilance and extract more words from Furong's mouth.
Unexpectedly, when Rong Ya heard those words yesterday, there were so many misunderstandings, but this misunderstanding was not entirely bad, at least, they could use such misunderstandings to confuse the enemies hidden in the shadows.
"Fleur, thank you, you took care of me both times. Lu Yingquan seemed to be full of gratitude.
In fact, the first thing she suspected was this Fleur. I didn't necessarily get close to her before, but yesterday I suddenly came to offer courtesy, and said a lot of things that were right and wrong. Why does this Furong think that she won't be angry and upset for Yun Yao?
So, she still has to test it today.
"Lord Lu is polite, the slave maid just feels worthless for Lord Lu. You yourself are injured, and you still go to take care of Young Envoy Yun, but even so, you are still misunderstood by the queen mother. Fleur said, "Now that I'm hurting and getting hurt, I don't know when I'll be healed." ā
While talking, just like yesterday, Furong took scissors and cut off the clothes on Lu Yingquan's back, and then tore off the clothes that had been glued together, and blood flowed in an instant.
Fleur was still sighing, the clothes made of such good materials were cut out twice in just two days, and she was a little distressed, and when she was about to go to fetch water, she saw Xiaoxi coming in from outside with a basin of water.
"Lord Lu, I heard that you were injured, and the slave maid gave you a basin of water. Xiao Xi said with some trepidation, and then put the water next to Fleur.
"This Changming Palace is full of villains who see the wind and rudder, and they see that Young Envoy Yun has been favored by the emperor, so they don't come to see Lu Shangyi when he is injured, for fear of affecting themselves. Furong complained, but said to Xiaoxi with a smile, "Only you have a conscience, Lu Shangyi treats you well on weekdays, and now is the time to repay her." ā
"Yes......" Xiaoxi nodded, agreeing, and her voice was as small as a mosquito.
Lu Yingquan lay on the bed, lay half of his face on the pillow, let Furong wipe the blood behind him, and then looked at Xiaoxi, and a trace of doubt flashed in his heart.
She remembered that it was this palace maid who sent ginseng soup to Yun Yao. Yun Yao said that ginseng soup is the only clue that can be checked at present, and this palace maid is the person who can directly contact ginseng soup, so the clue is on her.
In addition, Lu Yingquan remembered that he didn't treat this palace maid named Xiaoxi very well, because Xiaoxi was in charge of the emperor's meal, and when the emperor was eating, there was a special person to serve her, and she was responsible for serving in the study, so there was not much intersection between her and Xiaoxi.
Everyone in the palace believes in Mingzhe to protect herself, but this Xiaoxi came to serve her when she was on the cusp, it doesn't make sense. Unless, Xiao Xi has other plans in his heart.
Today's Lu Yingquan is no longer the third-class dragon girl who had simple ideas and impulsive things in the palace in the past, what she has seen is the open and secret battles between the harems, as well as the ups and downs in the court, and now that her thoughts have matured, Xiao Xi's behavior of being more attentive than Furong has aroused Lu Yingquan's suspicions.
Thinking of this, Lu Yingquan beckoned to Xiao Xi and said quietly: "Xiao Xi, come over and chat with me." ā
Hearing this, Xiao Xi took two steps closer, came to Lu Yingquan's bedside, seemed to be standing there a little resignedly, and said: "If you go back to Lord Lu, the slave maid is shallow, can't speak, and doesn't know how to chat. ā
"You can't talk about nothing, I'll just ask you questions, and you can answer me. Lu Yingquan said, "It's a lot of pain behind this, I have to find something to divert my attention." It's hard to talk to me for you now, so don't pay attention to the pain behind it. ā
"Yes. Xiao Xi nodded and agreed.
"Xiaoxi, how old are you this year?Where do you live, how many years have you been in the palace?" Lu Yingquan began to talk under the guise of diverting attention.
"The slave maid is eighteen this year, has been in the palace for two years, and lives in Lingjia Village, Dongtai County. Xiao Xi replied seriously.
"Eighteen...... I'm two years older. Lu Yingquan sighed, "I've experienced a lot in the palace in the past two years, right?
"The adult is talented, has both ability and political integrity, and is already a third-grade female official at a young age, how can such a stupid posture of a slave and maid be compared with Lord Lu. Xiao Xi flattered, and then said, "It's okay to be in the palace for the past two years, but I miss my family a lot." ā
"Alas, if it weren't for the helplessness, who would want to enter the palace and become a palace maid? Lu Yingquan sighed, and then asked, "Who else is in your family?"
"I also have my parents and younger brothers. It's just that the parents are old and sick, and the younger brother is young and still has to study, so the slave maid thought of entering the palace to become a palace maid. Although I can't see my family from time to time, there are many more cases of silver in the palace. Xiaoxi saw that Lu Yingquan had been asking about her family, and she was worried about her mother's serious illness, coupled with Lu Yingquan's very kind attitude, without the slightest intention of making things difficult, she couldn't help but say what was in her heart, "It's just that I've been in the palace for a long time, and I can't help but worry about my mother's body at home......
Lu Yingquan listened to Xiaoxi's words, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it turned out that this was also a poor person.
However, even so, her suspicion of Xiaoxi not only did not lessen, but deepened. Because of listening to Xiaoxi's words, she felt more and more that Xiaoxi was motivated to do these things, because she needed money.
"Xiaoxi, don't be sad, if you are really worried about your mother, you can also find a suitable opportunity to ask the emperor for leave and go out to see. Lu Yingquan said, "However, it is not easy to go out to the palace, and you can only pray that your mother is safe." ā
"Thank you Lord Lu for your concern, and the slave is grateful. Xiao Xi said, looking at Lu Yingquan's eyes, the guilt deepened again.
And this guilt happened to fall in Lu Yingquan's eyes, which made her more sure of the speculation in her heart.
While the two were chatting, Furong, who had been giving Lu Yingquan the medicine, did not say anything again, and it was not until the medicine was taken that she spoke: "Lord Lu, the medicine has been applied, but you can only rest on your stomach like this for the time being." The slave and maid have been guarding outside, and if there is anything, you can just give it your direct orders. ā
"Got it, thank you, Fleur. Lu Yingquan thanked him.
"Lord Lu, you haven't eaten much all day today, the slave maid will go and make you something to eat. Xiao Xi also spoke, and then walked out of Lu Yingquan's room with Furong.
When Fleur went out, she was frank, but when Xiaoxi went out, she was a little cautious.
Lu Yingquan thought about Yun Yao's words in his mind, it seems that this trick must have worked, this Xiaoxi is the most critical person, as long as the gap is opened from Xiaoxi, then it is not very difficult for this matter to come to light.
Thinking like this, Lu Yingquan closed his eyes and lay on the bed relaxedly, wanting to rest. After all, she has been going to see Yun Yao since she got up, and after so many things happened, she was indeed very tired.
Soon, she slowly fell asleep.
When she woke up again, it was almost dark, and Xiao Xi made some refreshing and delicious dishes for her and served her dinner. Fleur also changed her medicine again, and after everything was cleaned up, it was already completely dark.
In summer, the days are long and the nights are short, and when it is completely dark, it means that it is already late.
Lu Yingquan couldn't sleep because he took a nap in the afternoon, so he lay on the bed and thought about things, and it didn't take long for a slight sound of footsteps outside, followed by the sound of pushing the door in.
She wondered, she didn't know who else would come at such a late hour. raised his eyes and opened it, but saw Yun Yao wearing a black cloak, walked in, closed the door by the way, and came to her bedside.
"Yun Yao, why are you here? In case someone sees us, won't our plans all be wasted? What's more, you haven't recovered yet......" Lu Yingquan asked a lot when he saw Yun Yao.
"Okay, okay, you're all injured and still have so much strength to speak?" Yun Yao smiled, "I can't worry about you, so come and have a look." But don't worry, no one knows I'm here, and no one will find out. ā
"I know you've always been careful and cautious, so you won't be noticed. Lu Yingquan said, "By the way, I found a suspicious person, and it seems that I know who the person who poisoned you is." ā
"Who?" Yun Yao asked.
Lu Yingquan talked about the conversation with Xiaoxi during the day, as well as the matter of Furong, and then analyzed his own opinions, and then said:
"Both of these people are suspicious, but as things stand, Xiao Xi is more suspicious. ā
"I see, I'll find a way to keep an eye on these two guys. Yun Yao said, "Yingquan, this is a little wound medicine I just prepared today, you ask them to apply this to you tomorrow, it's okay quickly, and it won't leave a scar." ā
"You're not even well, so worry about my injuries and take a lot of trouble to dispense medicine. Lu Yingquan said.
"Your injuries are all for helping me, Yingquan, I have received this love, no matter what, I am grateful in my heart. Yun Yao said.
"Why would you be so polite to me, if you were in my situation, you would have chosen to do so. Lu Yingquan smiled and spoke, very determined.
