Chapter 71: Luring the Snake Out of the Hole
The early morning sun gently sprinkled into the boudoir of the Star Picking Pavilion, and the peach blossoms in the net bottle by the window were also very beautiful.
Nanxing moved, and his fingers inadvertently touched the sheets under him, feeling a little sticky.
"Blood?" She jerked and rolled out of bed to look at her pants.
Sure enough, there were red patches on the white undershirt.
"It's really troublesome, it's two days early!" She muttered into the Cloud Realm, washing herself with modern items and tidying up. I found a random piece of clothing from the closet and put it on.
"Jinli!"
"Miss, Jinli has gone to the kitchen, and the subordinates are here," Ziluo came out of the next room.
Seeing that Ziluo was still the same as before, she was slightly stunned, she heard Ziluo's voice last night, and she thought that she had drunk too much wine and hallucinated.
"Purple carrot? You came back yesterday? β
"Yes, the young master just asked about the matter in the medical hall, and let Ziluo come back."
"Lin Tianshen didn't send you on other tasks? It's so niceγ"
Ziluo took her hand and wanted to open her mouth to say what the young man wanted her to do, but she was afraid to say it. He replied softly, "In the future, I will follow you."
"Okay, I know that you can't bear me," Nanxing smiled happily, not caring about Ziluo's uneasy expression at all, "You go and find Jinli and Mu Cui,"
"Good!"
After a while, Jinli and Mu Cui entered the boudoir.
Nanxing sat in a chair and drank hot tea.
Seeing Jinli come in, she pointed to the bed, "Jinli, the items on the bed are a little dirty, and these pants, too,"
Jinli looked at her suspiciously, "This is the slave maid who was newly replaced yesterday?" Where have the slaves and maidservants checked?"
Seeing a touch of blush on the bed, her face was slightly red and immediately changed her words, "The slave will go and change it, and by the way, I will make you a bowl of brown sugar ginger tea," hurriedly put away the sheets and left.
Mu Cui watched her purse her lips and remove all the items on the bed, and asked inexplicably, "Miss, is she?" β
"It's okay, you go back to the palace and tell His Royal Highness King Ning that this girl will go if she is not feeling well today!"
"Miss, aren't you?" Mu Cui also reacted and asked secretly in her ear.
Seeing Nanxing nodding slightly, she glanced at Ziluo, "That subordinate has gone back, and Miss should also rest at home." β
After Jinli and Mu Cui left, only Ziluo was left in the house.
She pretended to be natural and straightened Nanxing's hair.
"Miss, my subordinates remember that when you first returned to the house, you were very cautious! How nowγ"
"You've been helping out in the hospital these days, and you've missed a lot of things! I already know that the mastermind behind the scenes back then was not Rong Fu! As for who, it's not clear.
"Miss, why don't your subordinates take you to Tajikistan to relax. Maybe when you come back, you'll have a new idea," Ziluo tentatively said about going to Tajikistan.
"Not yet." Nanxing smiled and shook his head, "I know you're homesick." When the medical hall opens, I will let you lead the way after the affairs in Zhaocheng are dealt with. I've been thinking about that girl for a long time."
"Miss, are you reluctant to His Royal Highness King Ning?"
"He? Probably not."
Nanxing glanced at the dragon-shaped jade pendant placed at the head of the bed, and he didn't know what his feelings were for Ye Ziyuan?
Ziluo saw her afterglow fall on the jade pendant, her heart was half cold, and her hand stopped involuntarily.
Miss is really as Uncle Quan said will stay in Zhaocheng to be Princess Ning? What about the young master?
She was thinking about it when Jinli came in with a tray and said a few words in Nanxing's ear.
"Really? She's out again? She looked at Jinli with a question in her eyes.
"Well, just got out! I don't know whether to send silver to her son or to see Sister-in-law Wu? β
Jin Li poured ginger tea as she spoke, "As soon as the slave maid took the sheet down, she saw the blood stains on it, and her face was very ugly. He also asked the slave maid if it was the blood of the young lady.
"How did you answer?"
"Of course the slave said yes, and said that you are not feeling well and need to rest in bed!"
Nanxing smiled knowingly, "Jinli, go to the big kitchen and pass a message to your mother, just say that this girl is bedridden due to an old illness, and you won't be going home in the next few days!" Then go to Xihe Hall and invite my mother to come over. β
"Miss, are you trying to fake your illness? Will there be a Hundred Flowers Club tomorrow? Jinli was a little confused, and didn't understand what Nanxing meant.
"You stupid girl."
She patted Jinli's head, "Go to her room, how can you catch the snake without luring her out of the hole?" β
"Jinli understands," she nodded suddenly, "Slave maid will do it."
Ziluo saw that Jinli moved quickly to lay out the sheets, and left happily.
She asked curiously, "Miss, who is this going to arrest?" β
"Catch ghosts!"
After speaking, she drank the ginger soup in the bowl, put on sickly makeup in front of the mirror, picked out a light-colored dress to change into, and sat at the table with breakfast.
Ziluo looked at her like this, and her eyes were stunned.
If she hadn't seen the young lady dressed like this, she would have suspected that she would be terminally ill and dying!
"How? This girl's method is magical."
"Magical, Miss, you,"
"When Mama Li comes back, you have to pretend to be sad, but don't show your feet," Nanxing instructed as he peeled the skin of the boiled egg.
"Mama Li? Does she have a problem? Ziluo sat across from her and asked incredulously.
She didn't expect this old lady to have two hearts for the young lady.
"It's a long story, you know she's unreliable, and you'll have to watch out for it in the future."
"Ziluo remembers that she is the old grandmother who has been by your side since you were a child. How could such a thing be done? β
"People change, I thought she was still the same as before, but she is no more. Whether it's for her son or for money, she can't secretly poison this girl! This girl will too,"
Before Nanxing finished speaking, Ziluo stood up in fright, and said with a pale face, "Poisoning you?" β
"yes, I almost killed this girlγ"
As he spoke, Mu Cui pushed the door and came in.
"Miss, my master said that he would come over for dinner at noon!"
"He's coming?" Nanxing looked at Mu Cui unhappily, "It's hard to catch ghosts, what did he come over to fill in the mess?" β
"Miss is going to do something to Mama Li?" Mu Cui shouted excitedly.
"Be quiet, shout something!"
She hurriedly covered Mu Cui's mouth and looked at the door, "Let Mu Bi see if Jinli has invited her mother?" Go to the Marquis of Anyuan's Mansion again, let Qin Xiaogongzi control the 'big head', it's best to take an item from him and come back,"
"Okay, my subordinates will leave," Mu Cui's eyes sparkled, and he didn't look honest at all when he was slapped by Ye Ziyuan in King Ning's Mansion last night.
Ziluo was still standing in place, her head bowed, her face pale. Nanxing's words kept ringing in my head, "I almost took the life of this girl."
If Miss is given a weak diet tomorrow, will she be in danger of her life? If I hurt Miss like this, I will never be able to escape the blame! No, I have to discuss this matter with Changgui!
As soon as Mu Cui left, Mu Bi's figure came in.
"Miss, Madame led someone up the steps!"
Nanxing hurriedly returned to the bed and covered the quilt.
When Mrs. Rong went up to the second-floor platform in a hurry, Mama Li also came back from outside.
I happened to catch a glimpse of Mrs. Rong in the corridor, and she muttered to herself, "Madame rarely comes here, it seems that Miss is really sick?" Sister-in-law Wu said that the medicine could not be saved by taking it for five days. Miss Ke, "
She walked a few quick steps to the corridor and looked up.
I don't know if I'm worried that Nanxing will really die or if I'm sorry for what I did.
At this time, she actually shed two lines of tears.
"Xing'er, what's wrong? Wasn't it okay a few days ago? β
When Mrs. Rong saw Nanxing's appearance, she was startled. Her face was pale, her eyes were blue, and her lips were bloodless.
"Mother, Xing'er, I have a heart disease, something wrong. I'm afraid I want to," Nanxing said forcefully.
"Jinhe, send someone to take the post and invite Imperial Doctor Wang! The sooner the better," Mrs. Rong shouted with a tense heart. "Yes!"
"Sister Jinhe, wait a minute, I have something to say to you, mother," Seeing that Jinhe was about to go out, she hurriedly stopped her
She. Leaned out slightly and leaned into Mrs. Rong's ear, talking about what happened.
Mrs. Rong's face was shocked at first, then worried, and then fierce. The purple carrot who watched it was nervous!
She doesn't know what will happen to her after tomorrow?
"Jinhe, you take someone to the big kitchen to guard. Let's just say that Miss Xing has eaten something bad, and no one is allowed to go out! Mrs. Rong's face was gloomy and she ordered, "Jinli, call all the people in the Star Picking Pavilion to the platform and inquire one by one!" If Mama Li dares to leave half a step, she will be escorted!! β
"Yes!" Nishiki and Nishiki went their separate ways.
"Ziluo, you follow Jinhe to prevent Sister-in-law Wu from escaping!" Nanxing instructed Ziluo and Mu Bi, "Mu Bi, you keep an eye on Mama Li. If she makes any moves, she can do it at any time! Thou shalt not harm his life,"
"Yes, my subordinates obey!" The two of them also went their separate ways!
saw that only he and Mrs. Rong were left in the room.
Nanxing looked at her with a bad face, remembered that she had heart palpitations, and patted her hand to comfort her.
"Mother, don't worry, everything is in my control!"
"How bold it is for her to drug you right under my nose! I still remember my old feelings and send her to you. It turned out to beγγ"
Mrs. Rong was angry and afraid, and looked at her with a pale face, "How is your body?" Is it really okay? β
"It's okay, fortunately I was rescued by a master. It's been recovered, "Nanxing's eyes wandered, and he wanted to mention the matter of the Red Cockroach Army, but he felt that it was not the right time. Let's solve it and talk about Mama Li.
"I heard that this sister-in-law Wu has been working in the kitchen, and Mama Li used to work in the room. I don't know when they hooked up? β
"Since I know that Mama Li's son is a gambler, your father and I have been thinking about your love and giving her a monthly subsidy. But she was always not satisfied. Later, we didn't give any more."
Mrs. Rong took Nanxing's hand and continued, "After the silver is less, we don't worry about leaving her to work in Qingxi Hall. I'm afraid that she will secretly steal your grandmother's bonsai to sell, so I will transfer her to work in the room! Over the years, she has been quite honest. I thought you were back, but for the sake of taking care of you in the past, she would serve you hard before transferring her back to the Star Picking Pavilion. Who would have thought that's the case?"
"The first time I saw her, I thought she was so old! I thought it was, "
Speaking of this, she looked at Mrs. Rong and swallowed the words that followed.
