Sheng Chong Concubine

Chapter 346 Asking Pearl for Help, Mother and Son Arguing (2)
Qiu Mingyue pondered, but did not speak.

Qiu Mingzhu looked up at her, "Fifth Sister, what happened? Could it be that something happened to you yesterday, and it has something to do with your mother?"

Qiu Mingyue suddenly grabbed her wrist, her eyes were eager and bright.

"Fourth sister, last time you said that you heard your second aunt talking to your eldest brother when you were young, do you remember what they said? Be specific, the more detailed the better."

Qiu Mingzhu frowned, "I was young at that time, so I don't remember clearly. Fifth sister, what happened? What do you want to know?"

Qiu Mingyue shook her head, "Fourth Sister, don't ask so many questions first. Let me ask you, last time you said you remembered what they were talking about about Concubine Yun, right? Then what was her expression when she mentioned that Concubine Yun?" ?”

Qiu Mingzhu thought for a while, "I'm far away, so I can't hear very clearly, but I vaguely feel that the second aunt seems to be very angry, as if she has a great hatred for that Concubine Yun. What is the responsibility, the mission, what is the seizure... I can't remember clearly, I was too young at that time, and I was scared, so I can't remember many things clearly. It seems that they have been looking for some treasure... No, that's all , I really can’t remember. Fifth sister, do you know something? What secret does mother have? What exactly are they trying to do?”

Qiu Mingzhu began to ask, "Concubine Yun? The concubine who should appear in the palace, how could the mother have anything to do with the concubine? And she also has a deep hatred for that concubine Yun? Also, I have never understood, the big brother she has been emphasizing What is the responsibility? Eldest brother is the eldest son. Although he is not born in the eldest family, his status is very important in the autumn mansion where the descendants are withered, and his grandfather values ​​him so much. The future will be bright and rich. Then, What exactly do they want?"

Qiu Mingyue let go of her hand, lowered her head in thought, her eyes seemed to fade away.

"Fifth sister, what's the matter with you?" Qiu Mingzhu said for a long time, but when she found that she didn't respond, she couldn't help but turned her head and looked at her suspiciously.

"What did you think of?"

Qiu Mingyue pursed her lips and looked up at her with dark and heavy eyes.

"Fourth sister, maybe we all think too simply."

Qiu Mingzhu frowned, "What do you mean?"

Qiu Mingyue paused, "As far as I know, there is no concubine Yun in the current emperor's harem. Even the previous emperor did not have a concubine titled Concubine Yun. So, maybe this concubine Yun does not refer to the Jokhang Kingdom. The concubine in the palace, but..."

Qiu Mingzhu exclaimed, and quickly covered her lips with her hands.

"Don't talk about it." She turned over and went out in a hurry, and said to Xiangcao who was guarding outside: "Xiangcao, you stay here and don't let anyone get close, you understand?"

Although Vanilla was puzzled, she still nodded.

"Yes, miss, don't worry, the slave will not let anyone disturb your Fifth Miss."

Qiu Mingzhu closed the door, then went to the window to check, and closed the window after confirming that no one was there.Taking a deep breath, she strode up to Qiu Mingyue and sat down.He looked at her calmly.

"Go ahead."

Qiu Mingyue raised her eyebrows, and there was a little more smile in her eyes.

"Fourth sister, you don't need to panic. Second aunt probably doesn't have time to take care of you right now."

Qiu Mingzhu continued the topic just now, "Fifth Sister, what did you just say? What happened to that Concubine Yun? Or, what did you know?"

Qiu Mingyue looked at her with a half-smile, "Fourth sister, I heard that when the second aunt just married the second uncle, she was a very kind person. By the way, there used to be a maid named Zi Lian next to my grandmother. Have you ever heard of her?"

"Zi Lian?" Qiu Mingzhu thought for a while, "I seem to have heard of it somewhere, but the impression is not very deep. It seems that I made a big mistake before, and then it seems that my mother pleaded for her..." When she said this, she suddenly opened her eyes. big eyes.

"Mother?" Her heart was beating wildly, and she couldn't even finish her sentence.

"Fifth sister, what do you want to say? Does this have anything to do with mother?"

Qiu Mingyue turned sideways, her eyes wandering to a certain place.

"I just suspect..."

Qiu Mingzhu's voice was a little anxious, "What do you suspect?"

Qiu Mingyue looked up at her with somewhat complicated eyes.

"Fourth sister, do you know why Guanshi Wang died suddenly?"

The corner of Qiu Mingzhu's mouth showed sarcasm, "In this world, there will be no people who die inexplicably, only people who must die."

Qiu Mingyue was startled, and looked into Qiu Mingzhu's calm and indifferent eyes.Thinking in my heart, the women who were born in the inner courtyard of a wealthy family are really not pure and kind.A person as demure and gentle as Qiu Mingzhu probably has countless indifference and loneliness in his bones.

"Well, she knows some secrets, but she doesn't trust anyone, and she refuses to tell the bigger secrets that she may have guessed, because she wants to live. She is thinking, maybe hiding those things, she still You can live longer. But the backyard is deep, and no one can be alone. Until she met someone yesterday and found out that she was wrong. Her concealment will only speed up her death. "

"So she found my maid and wanted to tell me something through my maid. But she was too clever to explain everything, because she wanted to use those secrets to blackmail me to save her life. It's a pity that she thought she was smart, But it made it too late for her to say those words, and she couldn't speak anymore. Those old things in the past also came to an end forever with her death. "

Qiu Mingzhu clenched her hands tightly, her eyes were icy cold.

"But I believe that the truth that has been covered up by years of history will sooner or later reveal its mysterious veil and be exposed to people." Qiu Mingyue twisted a piece of mung bean cake on the fruit plate, saying inexplicably.

Qiu Mingzhu took a deep breath, "You went to see Steward Wang yesterday?" Although the tone was questioning, she was already very sure.Qiu Mingzhu was an intelligent woman, so she naturally guessed something from these words.

Qiu Mingyue didn't hide from her, "Yes, I went to find her, but I was one step too late. When I first arrived at Huanyifang, she was already dead."

Qiu Mingzhu lowered her eyes and remained silent, she had already guessed the result.

"You suspect that mother did this?"

"It's not suspicion." Qiu Mingyue's eyes were cold, "It's certain."

Qiu Mingzhu said indifferently: "But you have no evidence."

Qiu Mingyue didn't speak, but only looked coldly and mockingly.

"The horse stumbles, I don't believe she can do it so seamlessly every time."

"But at least, we can't grasp it now. Who can guarantee that next time, it may be too late."

Qiu Mingyue looked at her, "Fourth sister, when did you become so pessimistic? I always believe that opportunities are created by people. How can you not get your shoes wet when you often walk by the river?"
