Chapter 47: The Secret in the Jade Pillow

She is a high-ranking young lady, and Hongling is just a lowly maidservant, and she actually serves a man with this maidservant!

Moreover, at that time, Xu Junying even said that Hongling's body was more delicate than her!

She is a lowly subordinate, why compare with her!

Anger surged, she didn't care about Hongling kneeling and begging for mercy, picked up the fragment and stabbed her in the neck.

She choked on the spot.

After doing all this, her sanity returned.

I curled up in the corner of the bed and started crying.

She was scared and sad, she lost her innocence, how could the prince still want herself?

How can I still be the crown prince's concubine!

The more she thought about it, the more sad she became, until she heard her mother say that Ye Shuhua was also dying.

She didn't know how she returned to Ye Mansion, but now no one knows about her loss, and when Xu Junying did something unscrupulous to her at that time, she was used as Ye Shuhua.

Hongling is dead, and Ye Shuhua is also dead, so no one knows about it.

She is still the second lady of the Ye Mansion who is high up, and she may also be the prince's concubine!

Thinking of this, she seemed to ignite hope, gathered her thoughts, and wiped away the tears that crisscrossed her face.

Looking down at the torn clothes on his body, he hurriedly got up and took out a high-necked button-down dress from the closet and put it on in a panic.

I couldn't hear the sound inside, and there was a quick knock on the door.

Ye Shuyu looked in the mirror and saw that the kiss marks on her neck were covered, so she adjusted her emotions and opened the door.

Ye Shuyu was locked in the house and cried for a whole afternoon, making a lot of noise.

Even Ye Zhao, who was still a little annoyed with her because of the punishment for the album, also went to check it.

Takekage went to investigate, and came back.

told the things he saw in Jin Yuxuan.

Ye Shuyu killed Hongling, and only said that Hongling went out to buy snacks for her, and was defiled by someone, and after coming back, she committed suicide without bearing the humiliation. Ye Shuyu was too sad, so she kept crying. ”

Ye Shuhua sat under the porch, looking at the bright moon with a missing corner above her head, raising her eyebrows, and a sneer on the corner of her lips.

"It's good that she's looking for a reason."

"The subordinates also heard the Ye Gong clan say that tomorrow the Xu family will come to propose to the young lady!"

Ye Shuhua's eyes moved slightly, so fast.

I don't know if Yin Zixun can also come to propose marriage as soon as possible.

"Well, later, you go and send a letter to Yin Zixun to tell him about it, and let him be sure to come tomorrow to propose marriage."

Syllable!

The sound of jade breaking interrupted the conversation and broke the quiet night.

Immediately afterward, Ji Cui came out of the back room with a child in tow.

The kid was thin and dirty.

His hair was shaggy and covered with dirt and mud, and his clothes were already black and shiny and began to reflect.

Ji Cui puffed as he dragged her to the bottom of the porch, and complained.

"Miss, the slave was making a mattress for you, and she caught a thief stealing things, and she also smashed the jade pillow on your bed!"

Ye Shuhua looked at the child, his face was so dark that he couldn't see clearly, and he could only see a pair of round eyes.

She was caught, but there was no panic in her eyes.

"You broke the jade pillow on purpose?" Ye Shuhua asked.

A real thief doesn't pick someone's house to steal.

The child hung his head and said nothing.

Ye Shuhua looked at her carefully, recalled the vaguely seen figure when she ate roasted mutton that day, and asked again: "Are you the child who has been hiding in the courtyard?" ”

She still didn't speak.

Bamboo Shadow spoke, "Miss, it's indeed her. ”

She could detect the other party's breath, she was the child she secretly gave her food every day.

Ye Shuhua nodded, looked at her again, smiled slightly, and smiled extremely brightly.

The tone also softened a little: "Don't be afraid, if a jade pillow is broken, it will break, and I will not punish you." Ji Cui also thinks that you are a thief, so she is like this, usually she is very kind. What's your name and why have you been hiding in Yefu? ”

Ji Cui knew that the young lady couldn't bear to punish her, and she didn't know what to say, so she only pouted and muttered, "That is the eldest princess's favorite jade pillow when she was alive." ”

Suddenly, the child broke free of Ji Cui's hand, didn't say anything, turned his head and ran towards the back room.

Ji Cui hurriedly followed, and Bamboo Shadow also ran into the house.

Doubts appeared in Ye Shuhua's eyes, she didn't say a word, didn't she speak?

Then he walked towards the house without hurrying.

When I came to the back room, the jade pillow was broken on the ground.

The child did not take the opportunity to escape, but stood next to the broken jade pillow, his thin, withered fingers pointing at the debris on the ground.

Neither Ji Cui nor Takekage understood what she was trying to say, and only looked at the jade pillow, and there was nothing strange about it.

Ye Shuhua approached, glanced at it, and squatted down.

The jade pillow was broken in half, and there were broken shards in the middle, and one of them was broken with a crack in the middle.

At first glance, it didn't look any different, but if you looked closely, there seemed to be something in the crack of the jade pillow.

She picked it up and threw it hard, and the jade pillow fell apart, and a bag of things and a letter appeared.

The envelope was already yellowed, and the paper inside was almost glued together, and if it was forcibly opened, it would destroy the letter and make it impossible to read the contents.

Bamboo Shadow is very sensitive to medicinal herbs, and her sense of smell is extremely sensitive, so she squatted down and leaned over, picked up the bag, and opened it.

A faint smell of herbs wafted out, and she leaned over and sniffed it.

"This seems to be medicine residue, but it has been stored for too long, the smell of medicine has dissipated, and I can't smell what medicine residue is."

Ye Shuhua took the letter and tried it a few times, but couldn't open the paper, so he stopped thinking about it, put it back in the envelope first, and put it away for the time being.

Looking at the bag of medicine residue, he said, "If you soak it in water and boil it, is it possible to know what kind of medicine residue it is?" ”

Zhuying shook his head, "This is the boiled medicine residue and has been stored for a long time, I'm not sure if I can, but my subordinates can try it, if there is no smell, maybe boiling and soaking can start from the form of the medicine residue." ”

"Well, remember not to cook it all at once, save some." She commanded again.

Bamboo Shadow nodded and went to the small kitchen with the medicine residue.

"How could there be these things hidden in the eldest princess's jade pillow?"

Ji Cui couldn't figure it out, so she stepped forward and helped the young lady to get up.

Ye Shuhua patted the dust on her hands, took the handkerchief handed by Ji Cui and cleaned her hands.

Intentionally or unintentionally, his eyes glanced at the child in front of him, she was so dirty that she only looked at it as a girl.

"Then I'll have to ask her."

Ye Shuhua sat diagonally on the chair under the carved window, elbowed the table, and spoke again.

"You deliberately broke the jade pillow, did you know that there was something inside?"

The little girl finally reacted, and she nodded slightly, but still didn't say a word.

"Who put this stuff in there? Why are you telling me this, and who are you? ”

Ye Shuhua became more and more curious about who she was.

But she remained silent, and when she asked her again who she was, she immediately became vigilant, and then rushed out of the house with a quick lunge.

By the time Ji Cui chased him out, he had long since disappeared.

"Why did this little guy run so fast, I just went out, and I couldn't even see her." Ji Cui said in surprise and returned to the back room.

"Miss, do you want the slave to tell Mama Hu and send someone to search for her everywhere to catch her."

Ye Shuhua looked at the night outside the window and shook her head, "No, she doesn't want to tell us her identity, even if she catches her, it won't work." Moreover, she came to break the jade pillow today, just to tell us the secret in the jade pillow, and to check what the bag of medicine in the jade pillow is. ”

Ji Cui hooked the corners of her lips, pursed her lips and nodded.

The hour was not early, and Ji Cui was ready to wait for the young lady to go to bed.

"It's good for me to come by myself, you have to take care of Mama Hu more these days, she just got a board, although it is just flesh and skin, but she is old."

Ji Cui nodded, "Miss, don't worry, the slave is provincial, and there is Zhu Yao waiting by Mama Hu's side." ”

Hearing Ji Cui say this, she was relieved, then took off her coat and handed it to her, sat down on the silk mattress, and thought of the letter again.

He added: "By the way, in the capital, do you know who can recover the letters?" ”

Ji Cui covered the quilt for the young lady intimately, adjusted the height of the pillow, and then thought for a moment.

"This slave really doesn't know, but Mama Hu seems to know, tomorrow the slave and maid asked Mama Hu to tell you?"

Ye Shuhua nodded and went to bed.

After this experience, Ye Shuyu became much more honest, and she stayed in the house and didn't go out.

Even the servant maidservants were not allowed to come near her.

Her temper has become extremely irritable, and she gets angry and throws things at every turn, and even her favorite tea cups before were almost shattered by her.

I didn't care that the prince knew about it.

Ye Gong also came to see her daughter in the morning, all kinds of comfort and comfort, although she didn't know what happened to her daughter, but all she could do was comfort her.

Different from the gloomy Jin Yuxuan is Hua Ting Yuan, Ye Shuhua is in a very comfortable mood, early in the morning, sitting in the pavilion blowing a cool breeze, enjoying the beautiful spring scenery in the courtyard.

Ji Cui trotted over, gasped a few times, and after breathing evenly, he said: "Miss, the slave asked Mama Hu, and she said that Master Yu is a master in this area, and Miss can let Lord Yu repair the letter." ”

Yu Zhenguo still has this skill?

This really surprised her.

Ye Shuhua took out the letter and handed it to Ji Cui, and instructed: "Then you go to Yu's mansion quickly, hand over this letter to Lord Yu, remember to hand over the letter to Yu Lao with your own hands, and let Yu Lao help repair it." If he asks, just tell the truth. ”

Ji Cui took the order and took the envelope out of the Ye Mansion.

Counting the hour, in another hour, the Xu family should come to propose.

She had to think about how to mess up this marriage proposal.

At this time, Bamboo Shadow walked over.

She had been checking what was in the residue last night, and now she finally got the result.
