Chapter 53: Condemnation (1st Update)
Shen Qing's eyebrows raised slightly, "This is ...... A post from the Marquis of Wei's mansion? ”
"Yes, Mrs. Wei Qihou will hold a flower-viewing banquet every spring, and in previous years, she would never hand over a post to our Prime Minister's Mansion."
Speaking of this, Xiangqiao couldn't help but say with emotion on her face: "She said that the female dependents who are qualified to attend the event on behalf of the Prime Minister's Mansion can only be Mrs. Fang Cai Jiang Xiaoshizi came over with this invitation, and it was estimated that he wanted to give it directly to his wife, but his wife happened to go out, so the slave maid accepted it for his wife first.
The day after tomorrow is the day after tomorrow, and the time is a little rushed, Mrs...... Do you want to go? ”
Xiangqiao glanced at Shen Qing cautiously, and Shen Qing directly picked up the post, and said, "Go, why don't you go?" ”
Afu's face, she always has to give.
What's more, she also needs an occasion to officially announce to everyone that she is back.
Xiangqiao was stunned for a moment, and her eyes suddenly filled with joy.
What Madame means by this is that she is willing to resume her identity as the mistress of their Prime Minister's Mansion!
Their Prime Minister's Mansion finally has a female protagonist again!
She couldn't help but wipe the corners of her eyes and said, "It's great that Madame is back." Fang Cai is too, Xiao Langjun has always skipped school in the past three years, unwilling to study hard, obviously such a smart child, life is wasted, Listening to the gossip outside, the slave's heart is broken. It's just that no matter what the slave says, Xiao Langjun just doesn't listen.
Fang Cai Xiaolangjun was willing to ask his wife to ask the master to come back to make up for him, and said that he would take the ten-year exam well, and the slave maid really ...... Really ......"
Shen Qing couldn't help but look at her funny, "Xiangqiao, how did I find out that when I came back this time, you loved to cry more than before."
Xiangqiao's face turned red, and she said angrily: "Madame doesn't want to think about how long you disappeared and came back!" What's more, when the slave and maid get older, they are more likely to be sad than before.
Let's not talk about these for now, if you have to attend the banquet in Wei Qihou's mansion the day after tomorrow, many things have to be prepared. The most important thing is the lady's clothes, the lady's previous clothes can not be worn, and the new clothes have not yet been made, so you can only buy ready-to-wear clothes to deal with it.
I have to buy all the rouge gouache and other things, but these Mr. Chen had already told the slave yesterday that he had sent someone out to buy them, and it would arrive in the next two days.
As for the jewelry, Madame's previous jewelry is still usable, but it has to be moved out of the warehouse and cleaned......"
Shen Qing looked at Xiangqiao who was immediately busy with a funny smile, but a touch of coldness quietly flashed in his eyes.
Gossip, right?
I'm afraid that this time she returns, she will also suffer a wave of gossip baptism.
Speaking of which, she couldn't wait to see the faces of those people when they knew she was back.
……
The next few days were busy and warm.
As long as you don't pay attention to the messy things outside, the days seem to be so simple, as long as you take care of three meals a day and watch the sun rise and sunset, the day will pass like this.
But it is impossible to completely ignore what is happening outside.
The next day, Chen Li came to Langzhang Garden and reported to her the information he got from the mansion, "The villain went to the mansion yesterday afternoon, and Lord Sun listened to the purpose of the villain's visit, his expression was very surprised, it turned out that he had already noticed the existence of that kind of fairy medicine.
He said that in the past two months, the number of prisoners arrested in the government has increased dramatically, and at least half of them are insane, constantly arguing about what medicine to take, and several prisoners have committed suicide in prison because they do not have such medicine.
At first, he thought it was just an isolated case, but then when similar things happened a lot, he felt that something was wrong. He intuitively felt that there was a lot of water behind this matter, and he had been investigating it during this time, but he had not found out any results, so he did not report it to the imperial court for a long time.
Master Sun said that even if the villain did not go to the palace, he also planned to write this matter as an excerpt and report it to the court in the past two days. ”
These strange things have started to happen in the last two months.
It shows that two months ago, this immortal medicine had been secretly circulating in the capital for a while!
It is not known where this medicine originated in Daqi, and if this was really someone's conspiracy, he would not have spread this medicine in the capital, which was the most exposed center of power, but from some towns far away from the capital.
In this way, the actual spread of this medicine in Daqi will only be much earlier!
I'm afraid the situation is more serious than she thought!
Shen Qing frowned and said, "Did Master Sun say that what did he find in the process of investigating this matter?" ”
Chen Li nodded and said: "Lord Sun's statement is the same as what Mrs. said yesterday, saying that those who sell medicine are very cautious, and his method of investigation is to first ask the prisoners about the channels they sell medicine from, and then send people to follow this channel to find it, however, he asked three channels, and every time he brought people over to ambush, it was all empty, so he didn't dare to act rashly later."
The villain told him according to Lord Lang's instructions, and gave priority to interrogating those prisoners who had been imprisoned for a period of time, but Master Sun said that those prisoners had not been able to get the supply of immortal medicine, and they were either crazy or half-dead, and he was not sure if he could ask anything from their mouths. ”
Shen Qing couldn't help but fall silent.
That is to say, starting with the prisoners in the government prison, you may not be able to find the vine!
She pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Chen Li, you go to the mansion for me again, and tell Master Sun that if you can't ask anything from the prisoners' mouths, you can try to start with their relatives and friends."
Those prisoners don't know about the existence of this medicine for no reason, they must have someone around them who knows about it, or someone who is taking it, that they will get it.
No matter how cautious those who sell medicine are, they don't have so much energy to keep an eye on those prisoners and the people around them!
If we can, find a way to persuade someone who is taking the medicine to cooperate with us to find out the person who sells the medicine behind us, and having someone who is taking the medicine with us can reduce the vigilance of those who sell the medicine even more. ”
Chen Li was eerily silent for a moment before he said: "What Mrs. said, Lord Lang has already instructed the villain, and the villain is planning to report this matter to Mrs. again." ”
Shen Qing was stunned.
However, she was not surprised, Yu Jiuqing's mind was not inferior to her, and what she could think of, Yu Jiuqing could naturally think of it.
"Is that so?"
Shen Qing raised his lips and said, "Speaking of which, your lord is very busy?" Why didn't I see him come to Zhangyuan last night or this morning? ”
Yu Jiuqing was still very diligent a few days ago, basically coming back in the morning, once at noon, and once before going to bed at night.
No matter how Yu Zihan gives him a cold face, he can't be shaken.
But yesterday afternoon, after she and Yu Jiuqing parted in the courtyard, they never saw him again.
Chen Li suddenly glanced at Shen Qing with obvious condemnation and dissatisfaction, took a deep breath, and seemed to be extremely forbearing: "The villain is still thinking, will Madame not notice that Lord Lang has not come."
This morning, Wei Qihou presented the evidence of all the corrupt things that the Cao family had done over the years to Yushitai, so Lord Lang will be very busy in the past two days, and I am afraid that he will not have time to see Mrs. and Xiao Langjun in Zhangyuan.
If Mrs. Lang has Lord Lang in her heart, why don't she take the initiative to find Lord Lang, and ask Lord Lang to drag her body that has not yet healed to run to Langzhang Garden over and over again?! ”
