Chapter XXIII. compare

"It's so late, you haven't slept yet? Go to sleep, it's cool at night. Qingwen was stunned when she saw Qiu Wen sitting at the table alone, and couldn't help asking, after all, it was autumn now, and it was still a little cold at night, and Qiu Wen was still open the window.

Qiu Wen looked at Qingwen, but she was just a little better looking than herself, and Qingwen didn't dress up recently, she was also wooden, and she didn't like to talk to her son, so how could she fight for herself, why did she dirty her hands.

"You care about me, I'm willing." With that, Autumn Pattern went to bed.

Seeing that she was like this again, Qingwen muttered, "I don't know the hearts of good people." After ignoring her, after taking care of herself and washing herself, she also fell asleep.

On the second day, Qingwen heard that her cousin died, saying that she died in prison, and was originally locked up with the Laiwang family, but somehow, she may have heard that she might be divided by five horses, but somehow, after carrying the Duowang family for a while, her own people fell, and she bled from Qiqi, and she came to the autopsy, saying that it was poisoning, and the jailer originally thought that it was the Duowang family who killed her, but there was no poison anywhere, and it was during the day, and they were in the cell opposite their cell, and they didn't see what the Duowang family did to her, anyway, she was a death row prisoner, if you die, you die, and since you can't find the cause, then it's considered suicide. Then he wrapped it in a broken mat and threw it into the grave. Qingwen knows the law, she knows that although her cousin is going to be sentenced to death, she will have to wait until next autumn, after all, any crime may be misjudged, especially capital crimes, as long as it is not ordered by the emperor to be a rebellion, it will be executed immediately, basically it will take a few months to die.

And although her aunt is bound to die, but it will not be a five-horse corpse, this kind of torture, is not something that ordinary people can enjoy, do not do a "career", no one will waste resources for you, her aunt is at most beheaded to show the public, if the new emperor ascends the throne, the world will amnesty, you can also avoid a death, change to exile. Her cousin was almost scared to death, but she didn't know where she got the poison?

Beijing Palace, "Is that old woman dead?" Shui Rong took a copy of military affairs and asked Zhimo who was kneeling on the ground.

"Back to the prince, the old woman is dead." Zhimo replied.

"If it weren't for the Queen Mother's upcoming sixtieth birthday, why bother this king. This time the technique is so fast, reward! Shui Rong picked up the pen and said while replying.

The subordinate was ashamed, and the subordinate just sent someone to tell her that she was going to be divided by five horses, and her face turned white with fright. Then he turned his back and died after a while, and his subordinates said that the woman died in less than half a cup of tea. The subordinates felt very strange. Even the poisoning was not so fast, and no poison was found. Zhimo said.

Shui Rong stopped writing, took another book of military affairs, looked at it and said: "Since it is strange, then go and check, it just so happens that Ye Zi has also returned from collecting medicine from Northern Xinjiang, you can let her go with you." ”

"Miss Ye just came back and asked her to check on this matter, will she be too anxious, why don't you let Miss Ye take a break......" Zhimo said.

"What poison, take me quickly, I just heard it outside. Brother Shuilu, let Zhimo take me there, okay. ”

A twelve or thirteen-year-old girl walked in from the outside, she did not hold her hair in a bun on her head like a woman in the Central Plains, but formed two braids, imitating the style of double buns on both sides, and decorated with some silver jewelry on both sides.

The upper body is wearing dark blue placket pipa sleeves, the cuffs are embroidered with intricate flower branches, which does not look like the style of the Central Plains, and the lower body is tied with a traditional batik indigo pleated skirt of Miao Jiang, with a pair of small leather boots on his feet, a small scimitar on his waist, his skin is slightly dark, and his facial features are just delicate, but his eyes are bright and bright.

Then two more women in strong suits walked in with the little girl, and the two of them looked ordinary, the kind that they couldn't find in the crowd.

After the second daughter came in, she bowed down and saluted Shui Rong and said, "Tsing Yi (Qing Yu) see the prince." ”

"Get up," Shui Rong said casually.

"Okay, okay, I'll let Zhimo take you to check it out later, will it go well this time back to Miaojiang?" Shui Rong watched the little girl come in, a trace of pampering crossed her eyes, and touched her head and said.

This little girl was the daughter of Deputy General Ye by her father's side, Vice General Ye died on the battlefield with her father, and this girl was rescued when she went to attack the Hun king's tent.

At that time, she was already burning and couldn't wake up, it was Shui Rong who brought her back for treatment, and after she woke up, this little girl forgot who she was, and only remembered that Shui Rong was her brother.

Over the years, Shui Rong brought her to his side, and wanted to train her to be a lady, and when the time came, he said that she was his own sister, and then chose a son-in-law for her in Beijing.

Unexpectedly, this girl was very interested in herbal medicine, and even the doctor in the house praised her for her talent, and Shui Rong remembered that Ye Zi's mother was met by Deputy General Ye in Miao Jiang that year, and she disappeared after giving birth to Ye, Miao Nu is good at using Gu poison, and Ye Zi should have inherited her mother's talent.

Then Shui Rong sent her to study medicine, last year the little girl because she wanted to prepare a pair of medicines, she had to use a local poisonous weed called Broken Intestine Grass in Miaojiang, Ye asked for water dissolved several times, Shui Rong finally agreed to let her take Tsing Yi Qing Yu to Miao Jiang together, Tsing Yi Qing Yu is a secret guard specially trained by Shui Rong for the leaves, although it is a woman, but in the secret guard camp of Shui Soluble, Kung Fu can also be ranked in the top ten, there are two of them to guard, plus a group of people are not going to do anything extremely dangerous, escorting a little girl is more than enough.

Ye Zi pulled the water-soluble sleeve and pouted: "The road is quite smooth, I and Qingyi and Sister Qingyu easily arrived in Miaojiang, but Brother Shuilu, the three of us have been looking for a long time, and even the mountains have turned over several times, but we still haven't seen the broken intestine grass, people have even picked the century-old mountain ginseng, but still haven't seen the broken intestine grass, do you say it's avoiding me." ”

Shui Rong listened to it funny, but still said to the leaves seriously: "Good girl, do you know why you can't pick it, because you are too small, and the broken intestine grass can only be picked by adults, so let's wait for the leaves to grow up and then pick it." “

Ye Zi tilted his head and thought for a while, then looked at Shui Rong and asked, "But Sister Qingyu and Sister Qingyi are adults, why can't they pick them?" “

Seeing that his lie was revealed, Shui Rong continued without changing his face: "Because the two sisters are not doctors, only doctors can collect medicine." Do you see who will collect medicine except for the doctor and the medicine boy? “

Ye Zi suddenly realized: "Yes, what my brother said really makes sense." “

Zhibai, Zhimo, Qingyu, Tsing Yi...... I'm here watching you coax the kids.

"Then I'll go with Brother Zhimo to see the poison first, I don't know what kind of poison it is, it actually happened so quickly, it's almost time to catch up with the broken intestine grass." As he spoke, Ye Zi pulled Zhimo and walked out, "Brother Shuilu, I'll go first, and I'll come to see you tomorrow." Qingyu Qingyi also followed her. This day is a good weather, the sun is shining, Qingwen embroidered a handkerchief under the corridor, she two days ago in order to forget the pain of her mother's death, forced herself to do embroidery work all day long, even at night also lit the lamp in embroidery, it was supposed to be half a month's thing, just let her do it in two or three days, and now she has embroidered all the shoes.

Now with her net worth, she no longer needs to make money by embroidery, and what she embroiders now is just a handkerchief that was not completed before.

Qingwen didn't plan to sell this handkerchief, but decided to keep it for herself, after all, in three days it would be the day when the concubine would return to Ning.

The entire Jia Mansion, whether it is the maid or the sedan chair man, is dressed up with joy, Qingwen, as the four big maids around Baoyu, can't be dressed too badly, otherwise the other three are all dressed up well, as simple as usual, then I'm afraid everyone will think that she has something disrespectful to Concubine Yuan.

The handkerchief in Qingwen's hand is light pink, the pink is very light, almost close to white, no matter what clothes you wear, it will not be abrupt. And this color is neither too bright, and embroidering some osmanthus on it will not be too plain, taboo, and it is also in line with the identity of Qingwen's maid.

After all, a maid with a peony pattern in front of her master may be sold in a few days. Qingwen was very tired a few days ago, so today she said that she was embroidering a handkerchief, but in fact, she was mainly basking in the sun and resting for herself.

The little maids in the courtyard were also borrowed, and they all went to the newly built garden to help decorate, Qingwen has not been to see it, but listening to the little maid fan who came back to tell her about the situation on weekdays, Qingwen felt that although the decoration of the Grand View Garden in this life is also a brocade embroidery exhibition, it is far from being as luxurious as in the previous life.

In the previous life, before the concubine went home, she didn't say that she was like a little maid, and even a big girl like them went to help, Qingwen still remembered the scene before the concubine went home to save her relatives, and there were no less than 100 incense burners in the garden alone. I heard that night, the incense ash burned off, there are dozens of catties, and because it is late autumn, although most of the trees have no leaves and no flowers, let all of them be made of grass silk silk paper according to the situation, glued to the branches, each tree, are hung with several lights, but also have lotus flowers and vegetables in the lotus pond, white cranes and herons, are made of snail clam feathers and the like, not to mention that the stream stone bridge is tied with crystal glass wind lanterns of various colors, put a stone bridge, embellished like silver flowers and snow waves, so rich, and so on...... It really makes people feel like entering a fairyland, endless peace and prosperity.

And this life, although it is also festive and rich, but not as extravagant and wasteful as the previous life, listen to the fan, the whole garden, only the pavilion houses are placed in the incense burner, the surrounding trees, although and the previous life is generally more decorated, but also just hang a lot of small colored lanterns on the tree, and there are some masters to write auspicious words wooden signs, tied with red ribbons, hung on the tree, there is no fake water bird lotus in the water, but really bought a few pairs of wild ducks and put it in, more than the previous fake ones are more smart and lively......
