Chapter 97
"Miss likes it." Zhenniang said with a smile, looked up, but saw Tong Ange frowning, his face was a little dignified, and couldn't help asking: "Miss... what's wrong?"

Tong Ange didn't answer her words, but took out all the embroidered handkerchiefs in the embroidery basket, put them on the tip of his nose and sniffed them one by one, and his eyebrows frowned even tighter.

Her expression made Zhenniang even more confused, and she couldn't help but worry: "Miss, this handkerchief was embroidered by the old slave alone, and it didn't go through other people's hands, so... is there any problem? "

"The problem is not the handkerchief." Tong Ange said, twisting a few tiny particles from the embroidery basket, and a sneer flashed across his mouth, "It's really a clever method, but luck is still a bit unlucky .”

Tong Ange's words made Zhenniang a little confused. She looked at Tong Ange with a puzzled face, and couldn't help but look at the tea leaves that she twisted between her fingers strangely, and couldn't help asking: "Miss, this tea..."

"It's the tea that Aunt Xu sent over just now." Tong Ange flicked her finger, and the tea leaves between her fingers popped out. She stared at Zhenniang: "You said that your ex-husband... my mother also drank the tea that Aunt Xu sent. ?”

Zhenniang nodded, her eyes widened in response: "Miss, is there something wrong with this tea?"

"It's more than just a problem." Tong Ange chuckled, "This Aunt Xu has quite a lot of flamboyant intestines." As she spoke, her eyes narrowed, and a flash of sharpness flashed in her eyes: "Zhenniang, go find General Bizhu." Bring that box of tea."

"Yes." Zhenniang replied, with a nervous expression, and quickly walked outside.

Tong Ange put his finger on the tip of his nose and sniffed, and signed the signature slightly at the corner of his lips. It really became more and more interesting. Can Qiao finally hold back?
She has never had any contact with Aunt Xu, and she has never had a bad relationship. If it is said that Mrs. Qiao did not instigate this matter, who would believe it?

It's just that their luck is a bit unlucky. She happens to know some traditional Chinese medicine and her nose is sensitive enough. I'm afraid she will have to sing the play between Qiao Shi and Aunt Xu by herself.

"Miss, the servant has brought it." Zhenniang ran in quickly from the outside, holding the box of tea leaves that Aunt Xu sent.

Tong Ange took it over, opened the box and put it on the tip of his nose to sniff. The smell of the tea leaves was indeed quiet, but he still couldn't suppress the strong smell of medicine.

It must be that Mrs. Qiao couldn't wait to get rid of her, so the dose of poison was so heavy, but now she found out, it's really a pity.

Zhenniang next to her has been watching Tong Ange's face, and seeing that she has been silent, she couldn't help asking eagerly: "Miss, this tea...isn't it poisonous?"

"What do you think?" Tong Ange glanced at Zhenniang with a light smile, closed the tea box, his eyes darkened, and said, "How did my mother die back then?"

Hearing this, Zhenniang's expression was instantly tinged with sadness: "Ma'am, she...she hurt Genyuan during childbirth, and her body was often bad in those years. Although she has been taking care of her, but because Madam gave birth Miss, the master has been neglected all the time, coupled with Joe's intentional harshness, this body has not recovered, and later contracted a cold, the wife's health deteriorated, and the doctor who came to treat the disease was careless. After a long time, the foundation of the body It's already vain, and then..." After speaking, Zhenniang's voice began to choke.

Listening to Zhenniang's words, Tong Ange's eyes flickered slightly, and she could tell that the second Miss Tong's biological mother, Yun Ji, was nothing more than a concubine. In ancient feudal society where men were superior to women, Yun Ji gave birth to not a son. It's a daughter who loses money. She won't get Tong Yuming's attention at all, and will only be left out in the cold. In this way, doesn't it just give Qiao's a chance?
"Then my mother has been in contact with Aunt Xu?"

"Yes, in this backyard, the only person who communicates with Madam is Aunt Xu, and Aunt Xu often brings tea to Madam." As she spoke, Zhenniang's voice was filled with sadness and remorse: "All slaves are stupid, slaves Why didn't I find out that the tea leaves sent by Aunt Xu were poisoned before."

"Since they dare to do it, they will definitely not be noticed. This time it's just my luck." Tong Ange said, and glanced at the brocade box containing the tea: "Don't spread this matter, you met Aunt Xu Don't show any clues." Tong Ange looked at Zhenniang.

Hearing this, Zhenniang's face was a bit puzzled, and she said anxiously: "Miss, why didn't you tell the master about it? Madam died of illness that year, it must be related to the tea leaves sent by Aunt Xu. We will give these tea leaves to you." Give it to the master, the master will definitely..."

"Surely what?" Tong Ange raised an eyebrow: "Surely I will find out what happened back then and give my mother an explanation?"

Zhenniang was slightly taken aback, looked at Tong Ange's expression, and nodded slowly, didn't she?
Tong Ange's lips flashed a sneering smile: "Let's not talk about whether my mother's death was related to these tea leaves, even if it was, do you think you will take these tea leaves to find the master you are talking about, and he will really Are you going to find out the truth of the year? Times have changed, not to mention that my mother is just a concubine who is not very favored, what do you expect your master to give her?"

"But... Madam's death is so unclear, it is very likely that she was killed by someone, so let's forget it?" Zhenniang couldn't help but shed tears.

"Of course not." Tong Ange said resolutely, with a gleam of determination in his eyes: "Since the fox's tail is exposed, if I don't cooperate with her to sing this scene, it will be a burden." This box of tea leaves that my aunt brought over."

Although the case of Peach Blossom Temple has been settled, the lingering heat has not diminished. It has been rumored in the capital for a few days, and it is still the talk of people after dinner.

However, the news about the son-in-law of the eldest princess of Jinyang has not been reported. It should be the emperor who asked someone to press it. After all, the Taohua Temple incident has already affected the royal family. It will become a joke among the common people.

Since Tong Ange left the mansion of Princess Jinyang that day, there has been no news of the woman surnamed Chen. She even asked Mo Ran to inquire about it, but she didn't hear any news, as if it had never happened. .

On this day, just after Tong Ange had breakfast, Aunt Xu came in from the outside with a bright smile on her face like a flower.

During this time, Aunt Xu would come to Tong Ange's side to report almost every day, and she was used to it.

"An Ge, why are you still standing here, hurry up and get ready and change into a beautiful dress." Seeing Tong Ange, Aunt Xu immediately said excitedly.

Hearing this, Tong Ange looked at Aunt Xu with raised eyebrows, and asked in confusion, "Auntie, what's the matter?"

"Of course there is something to do, it's a very good thing." Aunt Xu said, she walked quickly to the room holding Tong Ange's arm, and said as she walked, "Mother Zhen, hurry up and get ready to dress your young lady."

Zhenniang's eyes flickered on the side, met Tong Ange's sight, turned and walked into the room.

"Since it's a good thing, why don't Auntie tell An Ge what a good thing it is?" Tong Ange looked at Aunt Xu, in such a hurry, in her eyes, it may not necessarily be a good thing.

Aunt Xu glanced at Tong Ange with a smile: "I was at your mother's side just now, and I heard a message from a servant that Her Royal Highness Princess Jinyang sent someone to invite your sisters to come over. It is not a great thing to be appreciated by Princess Jinyang Son?"

Hearing this, Tong Ange's eyes flickered, the Princess Jinyang invited them over at this time, probably because of what happened last time.

"What are you doing standing there in a daze? Dress up well." Aunt Xu sat down in front of the dressing table with Tong Ange on her arm, reaching out to pull out the ordinary jade hairpin on Tong Ange's head.

Seeing this, Tong Ange dodged for a while, and said with a light smile: "Auntie, sit down for a while, let the servants do these trivial matters."

Aunt Xu paused for a moment, and immediately said with a smile: "Alright, hurry up, don't be rude to Princess Jinyang."

Tong Ange pursed her lips, with a faint smile on her face. Aunt Xu who was on the side couldn't tell what she was thinking at the moment, and thought that Tong Ange was happy about the invitation from Princess Jinyang.

Seeing the smile on Tong Ange's face, Aunt Xu's eyes deepened. Although the expression on her face didn't change a bit, the hands hidden under the sleeves were slowly clenched until the knuckles turned a little white.

When Tong Ange finished packing and arrived at the front yard, Qiao Shi and Tong Yufu were already waiting there.

Seeing Tong Ange coming slowly, Mrs. Qiao was obviously a little unhappy, snorted softly, and said, "I really don't know the etiquette at all, so dawdling and delaying Princess Jinyang's invitation, how can you take care of it?" ?”

Tong Ange had already turned on the shielding mode for Qiao's, and turned his eyes on Tong Yufu, who was flamboyant, thinking a little funny, if it was someone who didn't know, he thought Tong Yufu was going to see her sweetheart .

Seeing that Tong Ange ignored her at all, Qiao's face became even more ugly, and she was about to reprimand Tong Ange, but when she saw Tong Yuming walking in front of her, she swallowed the words rolled on the tip of her tongue, her eyes flickered, and said: " The carriage is ready, let's go quickly."

"Yes, mother." Tong Yufu responded gently.

Tong Yuming stepped forward, turned his eyes around Tong Ange and Tong Yufu, and saw that they were well-dressed, so he warned: "You two sisters, remember to be careful in your words and deeds, and don't lose the Tong family. face."

"Daughter has written it down, father don't worry." Tong Yufu responded, and looked at Tong Ange with a smile: "Sister Ange, let's go quickly, so as not to keep Princess Jinyang waiting for a long time."

"Okay." The smile on Tong Ange's face was just right.

Reach out and don't hit the smiling person, since Tong Yufu and Qiao Shi are going to sing a double reed, then she will play with the mother and daughter for a while, after all, it is not rude to come and go, lest Qiao Shi say that she is not rude!
