Sheng Chong Concubine

Chapter 88 Charming Mixiang, Unexpected (3)
The young lady is always served by Hong E, Xia Tong and Dong Xue, she is just a second-class maid who waits outside, and originally had no chance to travel with the master.Miss went out today but all fucked her.Does this mean that Miss has started to pay attention to her?Qiu Mingyue looked up and looked at the old lady.

"On the way back to Beijing, it was getting late, so I stayed overnight in the temple and met a noble person."

Forget it, it seems that bringing out the Empress Dowager might make those people quiet for a few days.

"Your Excellency?" The old matriarch's eyes deepened.

"Yes." Qiu Mingyue looked at the old lady neither humble nor overbearing.

Da Furen's face was full of sneer, "Temple, nobleman? Hehe, I don't know, there are no temples in this area for hundreds of miles."

Qiu Mingyue ignored the eldest lady, but said indifferently: "Baohua Temple."

The eldest lady is even more disdainful.

"Baohua Temple rarely hosts pilgrims, don't you know?"

The old lady and the second wife were silent, and at the same time, thinking of the time of Qiu Mingyue's return to Beijing, they could naturally guess a little bit.

"Mother Han, show Miss Fifth a seat."

The eldest lady was taken aback, "Mother, you..."

The old lady glanced at her with a hint of sharpness.

Qiu Mingyue responded calmly, "Thank you, grandma." She sat down generously, feeling a cold and vicious gaze from the opposite side.She looked up at him for a moment, then smiled.Qiu Minglan's gaze sank, and she glanced over.She still didn't want to believe that Qiu Mingyue had such a deep scheming that she actually traded the Rouge Drunk she put in Qiu Mingrong's house.She would rather believe that it was an internal struggle in the second room than admit that Qiu Mingyue was smarter than her and knew how to plan.

"Since you know the cause and effect of the matter, I would like to hear your opinion." The old lady drank tea calmly, her eyes calm and peaceful.

Qiu Mingyue secretly thought, it really is the old fox.

With a steady mind, Qiu Mingyue said: "I think it's just a dispute between maidservants."

"Oh?" The old lady raised her eyebrows and looked at her, "Why do you see that?"

Qiu Mingyue said: "Because of love and hatred, Peixiang has always secretly hated Nianyun for breaking her treasured bracelet, so she always thinks of revenge."

"But the doctor has proved that she is indeed mad."

Qiu Mingyue raised her head, her eyes were clear, and there was a hint of a smile on her face.

"Grandmother, Qiufu, is there still a need to take in a crazy maid?"

The old matriarch's eyes shrank, and even the second lady took another look at Qiu Mingyue.

Qiu Mingyue was calm, "Qiu Mansion has a century-old family, famous and noble, the family style is strict, and the upper and lower levels are strict. It must not be ruined by a maid who has only been in the mansion for a few days."

The old lady took a deep look at her, "Then tell me, what should I do?"

Qiu Mingyue smiled calmly, "It's only natural to kill people for their lives."

Where is the cold wind coming from?It sent a chill down the spine, from head to toe.The eldest lady's expression changed slightly, the second lady's gaze was distant, Qiu Minglan pursed her lips, staring at Qiu Mingyue.Qiu Mingyu was a little startled, while Qiu Mingzhu smiled.Qiu Mingzhen, on the other hand, was slightly surprised in a daze.

The old matriarch's gaze deepened, "But Peixiang..."

"Grandmother, the past is in the past, who can tell? Just relying on a bracelet and a maid's one-sided statement is not enough to believe."

Xiaorui's face turned pale, and she hastily defended herself.

"Fifth Miss, this servant did not lie, no..."

Qiu Mingyue frowned, "Shut up."

Xiaorui closed her mouth leisurely, terrified and astonished by Qiu Mingyue's non-angry and majestic expression.

Qiu Mingyue ignored her, but looked at the thoughtful old lady.

"Has Grandma ever had someone check Rouge Drunk?"

"Checking." The old lady paused with her fingers, and said to Nanny Han, who was beside her, "Is the result out?"

Nanny Han said, "I've already taken it to Dr. Li for inspection, it's probably coming soon."

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Fu Rong, the maidservant of the old matriarch, walking in, and the old man carrying the medicine box behind him was Dr. Li who had just left.

"How?" Before the old matriarch could speak, the eldest lady asked impatiently.

Dr. Li cupped his hands and said, "It's the same as Mrs. Li's words."

"How is it possible?" Da Furen whispered, a little unwilling.

"Did you make a mistake in the test?"

Dr. Li was suspicious of his medical skills, he felt a little unhappy, and his face was a little cold.

"I have carefully examined it just now. If Da Furen doesn't believe it, you can ask another good doctor to examine it."

The eldest lady was choked up by the refutation, and anger flashed in her eyes.

"you--"

"Okay." The old lady interrupted the eldest lady lightly, "You go down first."

"Yes." Dr. Li turned around with the servant girl, took two steps, seemed to think of something, then turned around and said to the old matriarch: "Taijun, there is a sentence, I don't know if I should say it or not."

The old lady's eyes flashed, "Say it."

Doctor Li hesitated for a while, and the lady urged impatiently.

"Speak quickly if you have something to say, don't dawdle."

"Yes." Dr. Li stroked his beard and said, "I just discovered that this rouge drunk seems to be mixed with other flavors."

Da Furen's eyes lit up, "What's the smell? Poison?"

"No." Dr. Li shook his head, "It's the smell of powder, which is very similar to the smell of rouge itself, but it's not as fresh and light as rouge. On the contrary, it's a little more dirty and vulgar. Originally, the powder was also Excellent, but when put together with this Rouge Drunk, it is quite inferior."

"Beauty powder?" The old lady frowned and thought deeply.

The second lady said indifferently: "There are many female relatives in the mansion, and almost everyone uses makeup. Speaking of it this way, everyone is in danger."

Dr. Li shook his head again, "That makeup powder is not like an ordinary thing, it looks like..." He paused here, seeming to have something hard to say.

The old matriarch's eyes moved, and he said lightly: "You might as well just say it."

Dr. Li thought for a while, and then said: "That makeup looks like Qinxue specially used by imperial concubines."

The old matriarch shrank her eyes, and the eldest lady screamed sharply.

"Impossible, you're talking nonsense, you—"

"Shut up." The old lady scolded in a low voice, her face sinking into the bottom of the pot.

Dr. Li lowered his head and remained silent.

Qiu Mingyue looked calm and exchanged glances with Qiu Mingzhu.The former looked indifferently, while the latter was slightly puzzled.Qiu Minglan's face suddenly turned pale, and a haze flashed across her eyes.Only Qiu Mingyu still looked confused.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?"

The eldest lady turned her head and gave her a hard look.When Qiu Mingyue was stared at like that, she was a little surprised and closed her mouth aggrieved.

The second lady spoke at this time, "Sister-in-law, I remember, you said before that this rouge drunk was given by your sister, Mrs. Xue Guohou."
