The reborn concubine seeks the world

Chapter 149
Seeing Xiao Lizi coming in, Murong Qingfeng and I looked at each other and smiled.

"But Qiu Ju?"

I immediately asked, and Xiao Lizi looked at me in surprise.

"The girl is really smart. It is indeed Qiu Ju. It's so late in the day, and the two servants who were guarding the gate thought she would never show up. I didn't expect Qiu Ju to sneak in from outside the door."

Hearing this, I also breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at it like this, Qiu Ju probably hasn't had time to make a move.

At this moment, Xiao Lizi reached out and handed over a package of things, "Master, this is what the servant found out from Qiu Ju's body. It just so happens that Miss Zhou Ning knows medical skills, so she should be able to tell what is inside."

Hearing this, Murong Qingfeng's expression tightened immediately.

"Zhou Ning, hurry up and take a look!"

Hearing this, I stretched out my hand to take what Xiao Lizi handed over, opened the paper bag, and saw a large amount of white powder inside.

I leaned over and smelled the powder for a little while, then dipped my fingers in some and tasted it. At this moment, I was sure.

"But what did you see?"

Murong Qingfeng looked anxious, and I immediately knelt in front of Murong Qingfeng.

"Master, this thing is Buma powder, with proper dosage, it can help people who are in extreme pain relieve pain, but if you take this Buma powder every day, it will gradually damage people's brains. Now that the fourth prince is still young, If he eats this Bu Ma powder, within a month, the fourth prince will change from a normal person to a demented fool."

As soon as I said this, Murong Qingfeng showed resentment on his face.

"What a empress, her thoughts are so vicious that she won't even let go of a baby in swaddling clothes!"

After Murong Qingfeng finished speaking, she stood up and stretched out her hands to help me up.

"Zhou Ning, you are the benefactor of Zheng'er and me. If you hadn't thought carefully, after Qiu Ju came back today, Zheng'er in this palace would really be murdered like this!"

Hearing this, I immediately looked at Murong Qingfeng and said: "Master, in the heart of this servant, you and the fourth prince are very important people to this servant, so this servant will definitely protect the fourth prince well!"

Seeing what I said, Murong Qingfeng nodded with a smile.

But seeing her turn her head quickly again, looking at Xiao Lizi, her originally smiling face turned cold again.

"Bring Qiu Ju in, I want to ask her personally how she can be so cruel as to harm a baby who is still in her infancy!"

Xiao Lizi immediately nodded and said, "It's master!"

Xiao Lizi then turned around and walked to the door, "You guys, bring Qiu Ju in!"

Soon, Xiao Yuanzi and Xiao Lianzi dragged Qiu Ju directly into the house.

When Qiu Ju saw Murong Qingfeng, she immediately had a look of injustice.

"Master! This servant is wronged. I didn't intend to do anything that would harm the fourth prince. I beg my master to be clear!"

This Qiuju is about twenty years old, and she has been in the palace for many years. She must be a shrewd person. Now that she came in, she said she was wronged and asked Murong Qingfeng to find out the truth. It seems that she has already Get ready for a speech.

"Wronged? Qiu Ju, I would like to hear how you were wronged!"

Murong Qingfeng is not in a hurry to deal with Qiu Ju, she just waits to see how she justifies herself.

Seeing that Qiu Judang immediately said: "Returning to the master, the slave has been wanting to eat pancakes from her hometown recently, so in private, the slave went to the imperial dining room to find the sisters whom the slave used to get along with better, and asked for some flour. This servant is thinking that I can find a time to make some pancakes by myself, but this servant really doesn’t know why this ordinary flour has turned into poison, I beg my master to find out!”

Hearing what Qiu Ju said, Murong Qingfeng narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at her.

"Your sister from the imperial dining room? Flour? I want to ask you, since you said it was given to you by the maid of the imperial dining room, then would you like to tell me who the person who gave you the flour is and what is his name?" !"

Seeing Murong Qingfeng's question, Qiu Ju immediately said: "If you go back to the master, it's Shui Ying."

I stood aside and watched Qiu Ju's reaction and performance as if she was wronged, but when Murong Qingfeng asked about her sister, Qiu Ju answered so quickly, since she is a good sister, how could she? Without hesitation at all, she said her name.

Murong Qingfeng turned to look at Xiao Lizi, and then said: "Xiao Lizi, tell someone to go to the imperial dining room and call Shui Ying over for questioning!"

Hearing this, Xiao Lizi immediately went down to give orders, and Murong Qingfeng waited patiently, which made Qiu Ju feel a little bewildered as she knelt on the ground, and her face became a little panicked.

About three minutes later, the person sent by Xiao Lizi came back to answer the question. When Xiao Lizi came in from the outside, he had a serious expression on his face.

"If you go back to the master, Shui Ying won't be able to come. The person who just went to the imperial dining room came back to report that Shui Ying was found stealing valuable ingredients from the imperial dining room at night, and she was beaten to death with a random stick!"

Hearing this, Murong Qingfeng was stunned, and then she looked down at Qiu Ju, who now had a look of grief on her face.

It's just that her eyes are full of calculations. Come to think of it, Qiu Ju doesn't know where she found out about Shuiying being beaten to death with a random stick just now, so she made up such a reason that there is no evidence for death. After all, if Shuiying was alive, she would definitely die. Expose Qiu Ju's lies.

Seeing Qiu Ju knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Murong Qingfeng, "Master, I didn't expect Shuiying to go like this. I have always been on good terms with her. If you don't believe me, you can find someone to ask again." ask."

Seeing Qiu Ju's sad and wronged expression, Murong Qingfeng suddenly sneered.

"Heh... You said you and Shui Ying are good sisters? Qiu Ju, you can sell your sister without hesitation in order to save your own life. Now I have sent people to look for Shui Ying, but found that Shui Ying You are already dead, and you want to give Bengong a case of death, but you also know that Bengong has always been soft-hearted, so you think that Bengong will sympathize with you for losing a good sister, so you can easily let you go?"

Hearing Murong Qingfeng's words, Qiu Ju's face was stunned, and soon she came to her senses, kowtowed to Murong Qingfeng immediately and said: "Master is aware, this servant thinks that Master has always been kind, so I feel that Master If I knew that Shui Ying gave some flour to my servant, I wouldn't blame Shuiying, so my servant said Shui Ying's name, this servant is really wronged!"

Seeing that Qiu Ju was still arguing, I stood aside and said with a smile: "Oh, sister Qiu Ju, what you said is really reasonable, but what should I do, I saw Li Chang with my own eyes today. The maid of honor handed over this paper bag to you."

When I said this, I was just trying to test Qiu Ju, and I saw a trace of timidity on Qiu Ju's face, but soon she raised her head and looked at me angrily.

"Miss Zhou Ning, you can't wrong my servant so wrongly. The servant knows that you are a celebrity around the master, so you can't offend her. But what is your intention to frame things that the servant has never done?"

Where did I expect Qiu Ju to be so stubborn, her expression turned cold immediately.

"Framing you? If it wasn't for Mr. Xiaolizi who had you arrested today, I really haven't heard that there is such a person as you, Qiu Ju, in Qingyun Palace. You said I framed you, but you said Say, why would I do that?"

Seeing my question, Qiu Ju froze.

"You... Maybe it's because you're jealous that I'm working next to the fourth prince. Now it's widely rumored in the palace that the emperor intends to appoint the fourth prince as the crown prince. You're tired of being with the master, and maybe you want to climb up to the fourth prince!"

When Qiu Ju said this, everyone in the room covered their mouths and laughed, even Murong Qingfeng was also smiling, and I was so out of breath from laughing!

"Qiu Ju, you're not confused, are you? You actually said, I'm jealous of you, and I'm tired of staying with Master."

At this moment, Murong Qingfeng restrained her smile, then looked at Qiu Ju and said coldly: "Qiu Ju, you know, if Zhou Ning is really willing to work in the fourth prince's house, I would like to transfer her to the fourth prince's house." Waiting here!"

Hearing Murong Qingfeng say these words in person, Qiu Ju's complexion turned green and red.

But seeing that Qiu Ju hadn't had time to speak in the future, Murong Qingfeng said coldly: "Xiao Lizi, I feel that the trial of Qiu Ju is a bit tired, you can ask someone to take her to the yard first and tie her up, by the way, Pour cold water on her every half hour until she is willing to tell the truth!"

Hearing this, Xiao Lizi's face became ruthless, and he immediately looked at Xiao Yuanzi and Xiao Lizi and said, "You have also heard the master's order, take Qiu Ju out!"
