Chapter 211
After sending Shen Qingli away, Lu Huaiqi fell into a gloomy state.
Tong Wanjin silently grasped the gilt little abacus, not knowing how to talk to him at this time, so as not to be accidentally injured.
Jia Zhen thought about the sudden smallpox of the Zhu family and the servants in this mansion, and felt that there were still many doubts and inappropriateness. Finally, after thinking about it, she said to Lu Huaiqi, "Nine thousand years old, I think that this time the mansion It seems that someone has moved their hands and feet in the dark, otherwise so many people will be infected with smallpox overnight. I asked the housekeeper before I went down. Before the Dragon Boat Festival, everything was normal in the mansion, and no one was alive A person infected with smallpox appeared, and no one in the house had any contact with the person infected with the disease."
Tong Wanjin was stunned, and hurriedly said, "Then you think that smallpox is not contracted by contact with outsiders, that would be weird, it's very good, and you can get this disease by yourself without any reason?"
Jia Zhen murmured, "Perhaps, the people in the house touched something that was touched by a patient suffering from smallpox."
After Lu Huai listened, he didn't speak, but he was thinking about what weird things the people in the house touched yesterday.
Jia Zhen thought for a while, and then added, "Maybe it's not an object, but it could also be food..."
Lu Huaiqi was awakened by this sentence, he suddenly remembered that Mrs. Zhu and those servants all ate the same thing last night - the egg yolk cake rewarded by the palace.
There were still some egg yolk cakes left. After Jia Zhen inspected them, her face was heavy. "These egg yolk cakes should be the crux of the matter. Someone tampered with them."
The golden black is sinking, and the moonlight is getting stronger.
A figure with a slightly fat body and not too tall walked quickly in the night, as if she had done something wrong, she walked very fast, and she was a little sneaky, looking very suspicious.
Crossing a street, she walked to the back of the most prosperous restaurant in Liang Jingcheng and entered the back door.
She went to the wing on the top floor, where someone was waiting for her.
She entered the door, and through a layer of purple bead curtains, she vaguely saw the woman sitting in the back, with a veil on her face, so she couldn't see her true face clearly.
She knelt down in front of the woman and made a big salute.
The woman picked up the fragrant tea on the table, lifted the lid of the cup and sniffed it lightly, nodded and praised, "It's really good tea." The voice was soft and sweet, and one wondered if the owner of the voice was as beautiful as the tea. The voice is equally elegant and beautiful.
She picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then lazily turned her gaze to the kneeling person behind the bead curtain, Shi En seemed to say, "Get up, I'm not your master, what am I doing kneeling?" , Chungui?"
The kneeling woman was none other than the maid Chungui who had escaped from Lu Huaiqi's residence.
When Chungui heard her calling her name, she trembled uncontrollably. Although this woman's voice was gentle, she knew that her temperament was not like that at all.
She tried her best to maintain her composure and did not look at the woman. She said, "Girl, I have tampered with the egg yolk cake according to your instructions. Now many people in the mansion have contracted smallpox."
A few days before the Dragon Boat Festival, she suddenly received a wooden box from a mysterious person. Although she felt strange, she still opened it to read it. As a result, she was shocked when she saw it, and she couldn't hold the wooden box immediately.
The wooden box fell to the ground, and a severed finger rolled out, and there was a note next to it, which said, "Your six-fingered father has one broken finger now, and he is considered normal, but if you break a few more If you don’t, that’s not what you said—if you want to save your father, come to Hengxiang Restaurant quickly. If not, Duanzhang will deliver it tomorrow.”
According to the words on the note, she found Hengxiang Restaurant, and saw her father was tied up and lying on the ground covered in welts.
And the veiled woman sat behind, looking down at them from above.
After that, she obeyed her orders and harmed everyone in the Lu family.
The woman did not show a satisfied expression after hearing her report, but asked her lightly, "Who are those who have smallpox?"
Chungui hurriedly replied, "There are Mrs. Shen, Mrs. Lu, and some servants in the house."
After the woman heard this, Long Yan raised her eyebrows slightly, and a dark light flashed in her autumn-like eyes.
Chungui wondered if she heard it wrong, she seemed to think that the woman sneered softly just now.
Could it be that there is her deadly enemy in the Lu residence?
A person like her should not have any grievances with the servants in Lu's mansion. Among the people she mentioned just now, apart from the servants, are Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Lu. Mrs. Shen is much older than her, and has a different personality. She is weak and deceitful, and she never makes enemies with others, so the only thing left is...
Madam Lu!
Thinking about it this way, Mrs. Lu and this woman should be about the same age, and both of them are people of status. There is no guarantee that there will be no festivals before. Her sneer just now was aimed at Mrs. Lu! ?
There was a burst of suspicion in her heart, she was thinking that the Lu family was not mean to her on weekdays, and Mrs. Lu was gentle and kind, and took great care of them servants.
Now, she is doing everything she can to deal with those who are kind to her. Should she secretly report a letter to Mrs. Lu after confirming her father's safety, so that she can be vigilant and prevent the villain from murdering her.
She was in a trance, when a sudden voice came over, it was that woman, she asked her gloomily, "You are silent, what are you thinking when you lower your head?"
Chungui quickly looked up at her, and explained with a trembling voice, "Young lady, I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking... I've finished my mission now, I don't know when I can release my father?"
The woman chuckled, "What am I supposed to be, so you are worried about this matter, don't worry, since I have promised you, I will definitely keep my word and will definitely reunite you father and daughter."
Hearing this, Chungui inexplicably felt a little chilly, but it was only her own illusion. She smiled nervously, "Thank you, miss."
The woman raised her hand and pointed, "Look, I'm going to have someone bring your father here."
Chungui looked back in surprise, but was surprised to find that two men dragged over a sack, and there was a lot of red...blood oozing out of the sack.
She felt empty and murmured, "Father..."
The woman watched with great interest from behind the bead curtain, and urged her, "What are you doing dumbfounded, don't you want to see your father, everyone is here, so hurry up and take a look, if you don't, I'm afraid it will be the last time I'm out of breath."
Chungui was stunned, her eyes were wide open, but there were tears inside, she stepped forward numbly, untied the sack, and inside was indeed her father, covered in blood, bloody and mutilated.
As the sack was torn off bit by bit, a few stick-like things fell out.
Chungui broke down and yelled, those were her father's siblings!
She turned around, her face was full of tears, her eyes were red, "You vicious woman, you don't believe what you say!"
Rolling and crawling from the ground, she roared in despair and resentment, "I'll kill you!!"
The woman picked up the pastry on the table and took a bite. The slightly sweet taste made her frown, she was too tired. Seeing Chungui rushing over like crazy, she raised her finger and moved it.
Immediately, several people drew their knives from behind and slashed at Chungui's back.
Chungui fell down in a daze, bleeding from his mouth.
The woman shook her head and said, "I said I would reunite your parents, and I will definitely do it. You actually said that I broke my promise, and you are clearly slandering me."
Smelling the smell of blood in the air, she felt a slight nausea in her stomach, and waved her hands, "Get rid of these two, it's dirty to death."
Several black-clothed subordinates immediately eliminated the two of them quickly, and restored the scene to clean and tidy.
But the woman didn't want to stay any longer, and was getting up to go out, when the door was pushed open from the outside, and a handsome young man in brocade clothes walked in, "I found you..."
This person was Luo Nan. He was walking towards the inside, but the men behind him suddenly pressed the sword on his waist, and shouted out of the window, "Who!?"
Surprised, Luo Nan frowned and ordered, "Hurry up and chase him, no matter whether he lives or dies, you must bring him back, otherwise you will kill yourself and apologize!"
That subordinate hurriedly went out to catch up. With such a tall building, he can still hang his body outside for so long. The other party is also a trainer!
Seeing that his subordinates were chasing after him, Luo Nan hurriedly walked behind the bead curtain, looked at the veiled woman and said worriedly, "Jiaojiao, what were you doing here just now, let me find it easily."
The woman wearing the veil is Shen Qingjiao. She took off the veil and smiled at him, "It's nothing, I just met someone. By the way, our method worked. Shen Qingli has already contracted smallpox, and I'm afraid he will die soon." gone."
Luo Nan was overjoyed and hugged her, "Really? That's really a good thing! Congratulations, Jiaojiao, your revenge will be avenged soon."
Shen Qingjiao leaned against his chest, her eyes were cold and cold, "I hope so."
Shen Qingli, that hard-nosed slut, hoped that this time she wouldn't let her escape from death again.
If that's the case, then God would be too unfair!
Luo Nan's subordinates chased the mysterious man hiding outside the window all the way, but they were surprised to find that the other party's skills were excellent, and his lightness kung fu was far superior to him. Soon, he felt a little powerless, and the distance between him and that man gradually grew. The ground was pulled away until it got farther and farther away. He knew that he had been abandoned and the task had not been completed, so he resigned to his fate and put the sword across his neck and killed himself.
Wearing a night clothes, Zhang Li stopped outside the gate of Lu Mansion, pulled off the mask on his face, took a deep breath, and wiped the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, so dangerous that he was discovered by that subordinate.
Immediately he shook his head regretfully, unexpectedly he didn't see the masked woman's true face, so he had no way of knowing her true identity.
Chungui died, thinking of the woman's tricks, Zhang Li sighed secretly, what a femme fatale woman!
The woman seemed to have a grudge against his wife, and she was the one who caused the smallpox incident.
He has to report to the master quickly, maybe the master can deduce the real identity of the woman.
