Chapter 79
"I believe Sister Xianglong was framed." Xie Lingqin suddenly came in from behind and said loudly.
There were not many people in the courtyard, but there were also many people. Hearing this, they all looked at Xie Lingqin.
Especially sitting there can be said to be a fragrant cage with a heart like ashes, and there is a glint of hope in his eyes.
"Miss, it was the servant who dragged these two shameless people out with her own eyes. Really, the servant woke up early this morning, touched the cold one next to the bed, and came out to look for the person who didn't see this old thing, and found it here. You, you can't speak for her just because Xianglong is served by the master's study."
The housekeeper's rough wife, the previous sentence was quite high-pitched, but no matter how rough she was, she knew that Xie Lingqin was the eldest lady of the general's mansion, and she was not something that a servant could take over, so her voice became lower and lower. some.
Xie Lingqin didn't look angry, but she was justly cautious, "Mrs. Housekeeper, think about it, Sister Xianglong is serving in my father's study, and she is highly valued by my father. Since the night before, I have been assigned to Qingshui The pavilion taught me embroidery, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the housekeeper, who is middle-aged, married a virtuous and family-friendly wife like you. Sister Xianglong is not bad in appearance, no matter what, she will not..."
Xie Lingqin accepted the words appropriately.
However, the meaning of the words is already very clear.
She is still a big girl with yellow flowers, she is highly valued and has a bright future, why do you want to find you a half-bad old man, and you are still working in a place with so many people like the guest room.
When the housekeeper's wife heard this, her complexion changed, as if there was some reason.
"Miss, you must say something fair for this old slave, the conscience of heaven and earth, old slave, old slave, you can swear to the sky that you have never done anything to betray your wife, let alone in this general's mansion. The old slave must have been framed for doing such a dirty thing."
Seeing this, the butler at the side immediately crawled over on his knees. He was nearly middle-aged, crying with snot and tears.
Xie Lingqin wanted to vomit.
Return the conscience of heaven and earth, and swear to the sky.
Last night, I had a great time with Madam Liu.
Now come to count on her to rescue him?
Ah.
"Why don't you two think about it again, did something strange happen last night?"
Xie Lingqin concealed the disdain in her heart, and asked seriously.
Hearing this, both the housekeeper and Xianglong began to think carefully.
"Miss."
Second Aunt finally couldn't stand it any longer, her voice almost suppressed her anger.
"Second Aunt, you don't think Sister Xianglong would do this, do you?"
Xie Lingqin, however, followed Second Aunt's displeased call and pulled a thousand pounds.
The second aunt lost her word as soon as she entered.
Although the facts did not play out according to her expectations, it was a good thing for her to be able to destroy the incense cage, and she was happy to see it happen.
Right now, if she trusts Xianglong so much, if Xianglong is not reconciled, she will force her to investigate thoroughly immediately. If the general hears about it and investigates, the matter will really be serious.
This damn Xie Lingqin, not only is his mouth more powerful than before, but his brain also seems to be smarter.
Could it be that you still want to take advantage of this to pull the incense cage?
After a while, the second aunt said with some concerns, "Miss, you are a girl who has not left the court, so I don't need to bother you about this kind of matter. Let me handle it."
Xie Lingqin didn't seem to understand the meaning of these words, "It seems that Second Aunt also thinks that Sister Xianglong and the housekeeper were framed."
Second Aunt's eyes darkened.
"Big sister, it's not good for you to talk like that. After all this happened, what my mother said, it's useless to say anything without evidence."
On the side, knowing that this might be a trap, Xie Lingyu opened her mouth thinly and softly, and helped Second Aunt out of trouble.
Xie Lingqin's eyes were fixed, "Yeah, so I have to check, or..." Xie Lingqin walked over again, bent over and looked at the incense cage, "Sister Xianglong, think about it carefully, are you I didn't offend anyone, that's why..."
As soon as Xie Lingqin said this, Second Aunt's complexion changed slightly, and she immediately felt bad.
The relationship between her and Xianglong was originally based on her relying on the general's favor, threatening and warning as an aunt, and everything was good, but it was just pretending.
If Xianglong, who is not clear-headed, thinks that it was her who did it, and then identifies it as her, it will be really ruined.
It's too late to say it's too late, Second Aunt immediately told the mother beside her, "It's cold, Liu mother, go and help the Xianglong girl, go back to the room first."
"……Yes Yes."
Nanny Liu's mind was still wandering in outer space, hanging down, nodding almost mechanically.
The second aunt didn't care.
However, when Mama Liu approached Xianglong, there seemed to be a gust of wind in the sky, pushing her to the ground, and she fell directly in front of Xianglong.
Looking up for a moment, such a panicked expression just fell into Xianglong's eyes.
Hit so clearly.
Like a ray of light, it suddenly intersected with Xianglong's eyes.
"Miss, it was Second Aunt who framed me."
Without any warning, Xianglong spoke loudly, swearing.
Xie Lingqin was in a place where no one was around, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes.
What is the straw that broke the camel's back, this is it.
Xianglong is not a brainless person. She lost her innocence and damaged her reputation. One can imagine how miserable the days will be in the future. However, after going through so many changes in a short period of time, she didn't have a clear head. In addition, she was secretly poisoning herself, so she felt guilty, so she unconsciously believed that Second Aunt could help her.
However, at the moment Liu Mama fell down, the frightened look in her eyes hit her heart directly, making her understand her situation thoroughly.
In the entire general's mansion, the person who most wanted to harm her and make her die was Second Aunt.
She was obviously drugged last night, and that drug, wasn't it the second aunt who asked her to give the young lady the medicine before.
Only she knows these things best in her heart.
Therefore, she can only testify against the second aunt now, maybe she will have a good time relying on the eldest lady in the future.
But in the entire guest courtyard, after hearing Xiang Long's words, there was a burst of sighing, but they all lowered their heads, not daring to look here again.
The aunts and concubines who had already heard the news and dared to come stood there watching the excitement.
The surrounding flowers and branches swayed in the wind, but the atmosphere was deadly quiet.
"Xianglong, what nonsense are you talking about?" Second Auntie's face that was always holding every inch and every inch, finally changed.
"Isn't Second Aunt very clear about what I said?" Xiang Long didn't compromise.
She seemed to have great courage now.
Second Aunt frowned, a look of hostility flashed across her eyes, she glanced at Xie Lingqin, then looked around, stepped forward a few steps, and raised her hand.
"Snapped."
The crisp slap fell on Xianglong's face so lightly.
"It's all about being dirty. I guessed that you have been in the general's mansion for so many years, so I didn't deal with you immediately. Fortunately, you actually framed me."
Xianglong wiped the blood that flowed from the corner of his mouth, and stared at Second Aunt angrily, "Second Aunt, do you dare to say that you didn't ask me to poison and kill Eldest Miss?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole yard became eerily quiet.
"You bitch, see if I don't tear your mouth apart today."
The second aunt was so angry that her face was contorted, and she was about to step forward, but Xie Lingqin "struggled" stopped her, "Second aunt, please speak up if you have something to say, Sister Xianglong is just testifying against you, right and wrong, let's ask father to investigate carefully It's fine if you don't."
"Check? Xie Lingqin, go away, otherwise, I will be rude to you."
Xie Lingqin was so pushed by the second aunt, and fell to the ground so lightly.
"Ah, miss, what's wrong with you." Zihe immediately stepped forward nervously to help.
Xie Lingqin "gaped up in pain" but waved his hands carelessly, "It's nothing, nothing."
"You bitch, I'm going to tear your mouth open to see if you're still open." The second aunt ignored Xie Lingqin at all, and just laid hands on the incense cage.
Xie Lingqin immediately called the guard girl in the yard, "Quickly, quickly pull away Second Auntie, someone, go and inform father."
"……Yes Yes Yes."
Those girls were stunned for a while, and they were about to report immediately, but they were suddenly scolded by the second aunt.
"Stop." With a stern sound, Second Aunt glared at Xie Lingqin, "Xie Lingqin, if you let Xianglong talk nonsense, be careful of your life."
"enough."
An angry shout.
General Xie had already strode in with his guards, looked around, and finally, his eyes fell directly on Er Yiliang, "What are you, you dare to kill her."
She, of course, refers to Xie Lingqin.
The second aunt's heart flustered, she didn't understand why she was so impulsive just now, but she stepped forward immediately, feeling extremely wronged, "General, general, you are here, don't listen to this incense cage nonsense, she, she must be with the eldest lady!" Collusion, come to frame me, really."
"Look at what you look like now." General Xie waved his sleeves and took a step back.
"General, you're finally here. It's her, Second Aunt, who said it. She has managed to get the general to listen to her. She has brought me to Missy's side to watch her. At such a good time, she gave me the poison." , asked me to poison, and Second Aunt also said that as long as the Eldest Miss died, she would be able to straighten her up, and the Second Miss would be a legitimate daughter, but I couldn't bear it, so I secretly threw away the poison." Cage talked and cried, "But I never thought, I never dreamed that the second aunt would treat me like this, and she didn't hesitate to drag others into the water."
What Xianglong said was heartbroken, more injustice, bitterness, and grievance than that of Dou E.
Not to mention Xie Lingqin, even Zihe beside him couldn't help but roll his eyelids.
This incense stick is really capable of pretending. If she and the young lady didn't know the inside story, she would feel that this incense stick was wronged.
Obviously, what Second Aunt gave her was not poison, but she changed the poison privately.
It's not that she didn't poison, it's just that the young lady didn't eat the poisoned food.
Xianglong doesn't care now, all her hopes are on Xie Lingqin and General Xie, and she has no way to think about the question of why Xie Lingqin didn't die after being poisoned.
She only knew that only by testifying against Second Concubine and bringing down Second Concubine, would she have a chance of rebirth today.
"General, you must be the master of this servant. The servant has been in the general's mansion for so many years and has never missed a job." Xianglong cried almost desperately.
"General, don't listen to this bitch's nonsense, I don't have one." The second aunt also cried and retorted, "General, you believe me, I didn't intend to poison the eldest lady to death."
That's right, you just wanted to make my life worse than death, so you prescribed medicine.
It's just that the medicine was replaced by the incense cage.
Oh, these two are really interesting.
You want to drag me into the water, I want to bring you down.
"Shut up."
Finally, General Xie was obviously aroused into anger, and the veins on his forehead burst out. Looking at the two of them, "You all are so decent."
"You, from today onwards, deprive you of the housekeeper's right, stay in the room, and don't go out for half a step without my order. Anyone who violates it will be expelled immediately."
These words were said to Second Auntie, every word was so powerful that Second Auntie was dumbfounded, she knelt on the ground with a plop, "General, General, you can't do this to me, I didn't poison you."
"Hmph, now that things are going on, why do you still want to argue, Second Aunt, you made me like this, you..."
"Shut up."
The word General Xie made Xianglong's voice come to an abrupt end.
"Come here, take her to the locked room, and lock her up first."
"Yes."
Behind him, the guard stepped forward and took the incense cage down after a while.
This is, do not check?
It also clearly left a way for the two of them to survive.
Xie Lingqin was obviously not satisfied with this result, but with King Xian's thoughts on Xie Lingyu, this father would not really do anything to Second Aunt.
"Master, General, what about this old slave, this old slave doesn't know anything, old slave..." At this time, the steward also stepped forward to defend himself.
General Xie just looked at him silently, and that glance was already without any color, and then, the general pinched the center of my eyebrows in pain, "You, you have been in the general's mansion for so many years... I will go to the cashier to get the three-month routine silver , family, leave the General’s Mansion.”
"Ah, no, General." The butler shook his head, a big man, tears were streaming down his face.
The thick man's wife at the side also understood that this was a big loss, and immediately knelt down with the butler, "General, this, my husband just plowed someone else's land, and it wasn't intentional, why did he drive him away."
This word...
Xie Lingqin couldn't help admiring, this housekeeper's wife is really shocking.
And plowed other people's fields.
You know, this father, after all these years, would not believe him if he said that he really didn't care about Xianglong.
And now these words...
Looking at General Xie's complexion as black as a stinking pig's liver, Xie Lingqin couldn't help but want to laugh.
This invisible green hat.
It's really sour.
"Take it."
General Xie has already waved his hand, the sound can make the heart stop.
Immediately, guards stepped forward and took the housekeeper and his wife down.
"General..."
Second Aunt seemed to want to defend something, but just said two words, touched General Xie's dark complexion that could kill people, she stopped her mouth.
After sharing the same bed with the general for so many years, how much does he know when not to speak.
But, just now, why was she so angry that she lost her composure.
"Mother, let me help you go back."
Seeing that the situation was not right, Xie Lingyu didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, but at this moment, she obediently stepped forward to help the second aunt, and lowered her eyebrows at General Xie, "Father, mother has treated you for so many years!" , It's really good." After saying that, he helped Second Aunt to walk outside.
At such a time, such a reaction should be expected of a smart person, but, heh, it is useless for General Xie to be so angry.
Immediately afterwards, the incense cage was also taken down.
"No one can talk nonsense about today's matter. Anyone who violates it will be responsible for the consequences." Looking around the courtyard, General Xie's stern voice spread.
At that moment, there was an aura of scolding the three armies.
Xie Lingqin couldn't help but look at General Xie more.
It seems that General Xie was really angry about today's matter.
With so many strange things happening in the mansion day by day, I'm afraid that General Xie will really get angry.
Well lit.
It's time to get angry.
If you get angry, don't bother her again.
"Lingqin."
General Xie drove away the crowd, and his eyes fell on Xie Lingqin, "My father has seen what happened today, and I have caused you to be wronged."
"Father is serious, and my daughter is not wronged at all. Since she woke up after sleeping for two days, she has become more and more aware of many things. It seems that everything in the world has opened up. She also began to think about sharing the burden for her father, Second Auntie. It's also busy to manage the middle school in the mansion, I can't help her, so I want to be more self-sufficient, as for today's matter..."
Xie Lingqin looked helpless, but neither humble nor overbearing.
Now that General Xie has doubts about her, she might as well confess that she is different from before, she is upright, making it impossible for him to attack.
Furthermore.
This father had obviously been here since the beginning of this farce, but he was watching the movement in the dark.
Otherwise, she would still spend all that energy trying to figure out what to do with acting.
Xie Lingqin's thoughts fluttered, and he saluted, "I also ask my father to investigate this matter clearly. I don't believe that my second aunt would poison me, but after spending two days with Sister Xianglong, she is very nice. Besides, she I am also a person who is capable of my father, I..."
Xie Lingqin was obviously also in a difficult situation, and in the end she didn't say much, and bowed, "Then my daughter will leave first."
"Go back and apply some medicine, because Second Aunt pushed it just now, there must be scratches."
General Xie gave instructions behind him.
Xie Lingqin nodded, with a touch of emotion on his face, "Thank you, thank you father."
General Xie looked at Xie Lingqin's back being supported by the maid, and it took him a long time to look away.
"General, do you want your subordinates to thoroughly investigate the matter of Second Aunt and Xianglong?"
Aside, the guard stepped forward to report.
Xie Zhuangjun didn't speak.
……
Xie Lingqin led Zihe all the way back to Qingshui Pavilion, and after entering the house, Zihe said, "Miss, what do you mean shameless, this servant has learned a lot today."
"Well, there are too many shameless people. At the moment of life and death, no one cares about who's identity. They just want to hold on to the straw and live well." Xie Lingqin was not very angry.
"However, miss, according to this servant, although the second aunt is vicious and cruel, she is cautious and considerate in her daily actions, so that no one will see her in the slightest. Why is she so impulsive today? It's justified for Xianglong, so much As for people, they don't care about you at all."
Zihe was a little puzzled.
But Xie Lingqin took out something from his sleeve and handed it to her.
Zihe's eyes fixed, it was a porcelain white vial.
Zihe took it suspiciously, "This is..."
"I found it at the window corner of the house before. I didn't expect it to work."
Zihe was about to open it, but was stopped by Xie Lingqin, "No, just now when Second Aunt approached, I just uncorked the bottle for a moment, and that's it for her. Are you sure you can never be harassed?"
When Zihe heard it, his complexion immediately tightened, "Then this thing..."
Xie Lingqin pursed the corners of her lips, "I guess the crown prince gave it to me."
"Prince?"
"Otherwise, why I didn't react when I smelled it, other than my strong character, I'm afraid it's because of the effect of taking Tianxiangxueyu pill."
Of course, she liked to mess with poison in her previous life, which is similar to poison, so she knew it when she heard it.
Originally, I thought there was a strange smell in the room, so I checked it out, and found this.
Zihe handed the vial back to Xie Lingqin, and swallowed.
She finally understood that she had punished Second Aunt and Xianglong, but Miss Why was still not very happy.
It's because, prince.
Miss to the prince...
It seems really annoying.
"However, if Second Aunt realizes it later, will it be..."
"No, the moment this thing volatilizes, it is colorless and odorless, and there is only one thing, except that Second Aunt feels strange, and does not have any doubts."
After Xie Lingqin finished speaking, she looked at the medicine bottle again, and then threw it into the basin beside her.
"Miss……"
Zihe wanted to stop it.
Isn't such a good thing ruined?
"There is nothing to show courteousness to, if it's rape or steal, just treat it like a prince and never give it to me."
Xie Lingqin said almost deceivingly, then walked to the soft couch table, picked up a book, and read it carefully.
Zihe stayed there for a long time, and finally went down with the water basin.
"By the way, what I asked Tridacna to do yesterday, is it finished?"
Xie Lingqin said again.
Zihe responded, "Yes, Miss."
Only then did Xie Lingqin look at the scroll in his hand.
However, on this day, the atmosphere in the general's mansion was strange and not peaceful.
It is said that after lunch, Xie Lingyu went to General Xie to intercede with his second aunt, but General Xie was so angry that he didn't see her at all.
Xie Lingyu was not angry, but knelt in the direction of General Xie's house.
The weather in autumn is not comparable to that in spring.
Not to mention a spoiled young lady, even a rough girl can't stand it.
When the news reached Qingshui Pavilion, Xie Lingqin was eating snacks, and just said three words sarcastically.
"Bitter trick."
"Miss, will the bitter plan be useful?"
Xie Lingqin smiled lightly, "Let's see."
into the night.
The general's mansion was finally restored to peace.
As soon as Xie Lingqin finished his dinner, a girl hurried into Qingshui Pavilion.
"Miss, this servant is the person that Sister Xianglong is usually close to, and I need to see you urgently."
Xie Lingqin was standing at the threshold at this time, upon hearing this, she glanced at the little maid in the dark, "Say."
"I went to meet Sister Xianglong secretly before, she was very bad in the purple room, and the general didn't say anything, so I asked my servant to ask you to go and discuss it, and by the way, I will tell you how the second aunt is doing. Harm you, let you take precautions in the future."
The little girl's breath was not stable because of the sprint, but the words were clear, but her eyes dodged.
interesting.
Xie Lingqin thought for a while, then waved to Zihe, "Zihe, let's go and have a look."
"Miss, during the day, the general later ordered that no one should go to see Xianglong. If you go..."
Zihe disagrees.
Xie Lingqin glanced at her, but she was very kind, "It's nothing, if you can help Sister Xianglong, it's a good deed."
Zihe had no choice but to keep up.
"By the way, take the things I prepared before, and I will meet my father in a while."
Xie Lingqin gave another order.
Zihe followed his words.
The little servant girl raised her head slightly and walked in front, "Then, servant girl will lead the way for the young miss."
night, black.
The flowers and plants on both sides seem to have condensed the chill of autumn.
Xie Lingqin was wearing a cloak, and walked very steadily step by step.
The incense cage was locked in the purple room of Nanshan courtyard.
Under the darkness of night, the surroundings were quiet, apparently extremely lonely and desolate.
The little servant girl watched Xie Lingqin push the door and enter the room, and then retreated.
"Sister Xianglong, are you okay?"
Xie Lingqin called softly to the woman with disheveled hair, pale face, and tear-stained face in a corner of the woodshed.
Only then did Xianglong's eyes slowly fall on Xie Lingqin, "Miss, you came to see me, is the general going to let me out?"
Xie Lingqin had a sneer in his heart, but he stepped forward, "Don't worry, father believes in you, and will investigate this matter carefully."
"Miss, how can you say that? I still need to investigate carefully. I did what you said and framed the second aunt. Why haven't I been released yet? My innocence has been ruined by you. You What else do you want?"
Suddenly, Xianglong, who was still sitting in the corner just now, stood up abruptly, rushed over, grabbed Xie Lingqin's arm, and said in a high-pitched voice, "Miss, I don't complain, but you can't leave me alone. .”
"You, what did you say?"
Xie Lingqin tugged at his sleeves and stepped back with a puzzled look on his face.
"What did I say, miss, you can't cross the river and tear down the bridge..."
"boom."
At this moment, the door of the firewood room was suddenly kicked open.
General Xie stood at the door with a look of anger, looked at the two people in the room, and finally landed on Xie Lingqin, "Xie Lingqin, what do you have to say?"
"Big sister, I really didn't expect that you and Xianglong really joined forces to frame my mother."
Immediately behind General Xie, Xie Lingyu also walked in with a straight face.
The expressions of the father and daughter are exactly the same at this moment, under the quiet moonlight.
Especially Xie Lingyu, who could barely hide the excitement in his eyes.
However, facing General Xie and Xie Lingyu's testimonies, Xie Lingqin didn't see any panic, instead she was angry on her snow-white face, "Father, you and your sister are here too. And you."
"Looking for me?" General Xie frowned, his tone was not good, "You did this, and you still have the face to look for me?"
"I don't know what my daughter has done?" Xie Lingqin looked puzzled, and then looked at the incense cage, as if he had just realized, his face flickered immediately, and he shook his head, "Father, in your heart, is my daughter such an unbearable person?" .”
Xie Lingqin looked back at Xianglong again, "Sister Xianglong, I call you sister, all because of my father's sake, but I don't really think you are so great." Xie Lingqin said every word, Resoundingly.
There is no excuse, but it is already defending itself.
"Miss, what do you mean?"
Xianglong looked at Xie Lingqin so calmly, with a trace of panic on his face.
It was Xie Lingyu who came to her and said that she and the second aunt were fighting like this, and in the end it was Xie Lingqin who got the cheapest. As long as she was obedient, testified against Xie Lingqin, and picked herself out, that would be the best policy.
She makes sense.
"Father, believe it or not..." Xie Lingqin took out the embroidered handkerchief in his sleeve at this time, "Although it was only a day, sister Xianglong really taught me patiently. I am grateful, and now, I can't help her, so I thought about going to her room to get some embroidery work, which can be regarded as my gratitude, but I didn't expect..."
While talking, Xie Lingqin asked Zihe to pass the things to General Xie.
"Father, look at this embroidery, it was embroidered by sister Xianglong, right..."
General Xie frowned deeply, looked at Xie Lingqin's hand, "show me this embroidered handkerchief."
Xie Lingqin handed it over calmly, "Father, let's see, this stitch and thread..."
General Xie looked at the embroidered handkerchief, his brows were really tangled.
Xie Lingyu didn't know what to do, so he looked at it.
However, apart from the two mandarin ducks embroidered on this embroidered handkerchief, there is nothing special about it.
"You go down first."
After a long time, General Xie handed the embroidered handkerchief to Xie Lingqin, and there was no blame in his tone.
It seemed that the previous anger disappeared immediately.
What does this mean.
Xie Lingyu was so confused.
"Yes, father."
Xie Lingqin called Shang Zihe and retreated immediately.
These two mandarin ducks are not simple.
"Father……"
Xie Lingyu was not reconciled.
For someone as smart as my mother, now because Xie Lingqin is deprived of the right to head the house and fined to stay in the house, it is more serious than beating her and hurting her for her mother's position in the general's mansion.
And without her mother to rely on, she is more or less restrained in her actions.
Originally, he wanted to put him to death and be reborn, but he didn't expect that Xie Lingqin...
What happened to Sipa?
However, General Xie's cold eyes fell on Xie Lingyu at this moment, "Lingyu, I miss you because I am eager to save my mother. I will not punish you for the time being, but if there is a next time, I will never forgive you lightly."
That tone seemed to be wrapped in frost and snow, almost making Xie Lingyu kneel immediately.
But Xie Lingqin, who had already walked out of the Nanshan courtyard, listened to General Xie's words behind him, and imagined Xie Lingyu's unbelievable trembling, but he didn't feel relieved at all.
It was just a roar, after all, it was just for her to see.
That's right, Xie Lingyu is the one who wants to be Princess Xian.
"Miss, the general is so eccentric, what are you going to do in the future?"
Zihe will no longer persuade Xie Lingqin to have a good relationship with General Xie, because even an outsider can see it.
When General Xie looked at Miss, there was no love and pity in his eyes as a father looks at his daughter.
Yes, just infinite alienation and strangeness.
The young lady did not go wrong, but if there is a little mistake, it will be infinitely magnified.
"General Xie hates my mother."
After a long time, Xie Lingqin slightly opened his lips, and spit out a sentence, startled Zihe, "Miss, could it be the other way around, if you want to hate, it should be the general's wife who hates the general, obviously he... "
Of course Zihe wanted to say that General Xie married so many aunts and concubines, but he kept his mouth shut.
In this era, isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines? It's just that the general's wife is so popular that almost everyone thinks that such two should be a match made in heaven and transcend everything. The secular nature exists.
Xie Lingqin looked at Zihe's complexion, took in all her emotions, and looked at the faint crescent moon in the sky, with a cold smile on his lips.
"Zihe, three wives and four concubines are wrong."
Xie Lingqin said, as if he was talking about a matter of life and death.
Straightforward as never before.
So much so that Zihe's blood seemed to froze when he heard this sentence.
How could it be wrong?
In the Beirong Dynasty, in this world, men from poor families could not support themselves, so they had to have one wife and one ginger. But isn’t that the case for those rich and powerful families?
"One day, I want to let the people in this world know that being a couple for a lifetime is the most beautiful truth in the world."
Xie Lingqin spoke softly, and looked back at the sky, "Let's go, at least, for the time being, we'll be quiet for a while, and I can do what I want to do."
"Miss, what do you want to do?"
Zihe was very curious.
This curiosity made her hold back her reserved expression, but after spending several days with Xie Lingqin, she finally let go of it.
This master, she really treats her as her master.
Xie Lingqin smiled mysteriously.
Bright eyes and white teeth, eyebrows like feathers, wide sleeves and light.
That smile spread out little by little between the cold eyebrows and eyes, like a bright and bright light in the autumn moon, spreading into people's hearts, and it will never be forgotten for a long time.
"Soon, you'll know." Xie Lingqin was still keeping secrets.
Zihe was a little depressed.
"Last time I bought those little gadgets that people put away from the street. If you are free, you can take them out to bask in the sun and tidy them up."
Xie Lingqin threw out another sentence.
Zihe was somewhat comforted in his heart, but he still didn't understand.
Go back to Qingshui Pavilion.
Tridacna trotted up immediately, "Miss, are you all right?"
"Well, your embroidery is good, and you don't even have any doubts about the incense cage."
Xie Lingqin handed the veil just now to Tridacna, "Wash it, I'll reward you."
"Thank you, miss. It's good to be able to help you."
Xie Lingqin shook her head and smiled, without saying anything.
That's right, where did she have time to go to Xianglong's room to get an embroidered handkerchief, even if she could find it, she would not have time to poison it.
It's just asking Tridacna to draw a gourd according to the pattern, and yesterday I asked her to embroider one more piece in case of emergencies.
And in every stitch of the embroidery, Chunxinsan for men and women's boudoirs was embroidered.
Xianglong is not married yet, why did he do this, Xie Zhuangjun didn't know what to do?
Ah!
However, Xie Lingqin still heaved a sigh of relief.
When giving Xie General Xie Pa, she secretly tampered with the poison in her body.
Just like.
However, General Xie's complexion did not change at all, only the shock and anger at the embroidered handkerchief and Chun Xin San.
Therefore, it was not General Xie who poisoned her all along.
That day, when Zihe investigated and found out that the only person Dr. Jiang had seen before his death in the prison was General Xie, who had been in the general's mansion, she had doubts, but she still couldn't believe it.
However, whether General Xie knew about her poisoning is unknown.
……
Not long after, there was a breath of water, and it was the incense cage that had hanged itself.
This incident surprised Xie Lingqin.
Thinking about it left and right, that incense stick is not a person who would commit suicide.
Early the next day.
Xie Lingqin had just had dinner when Zihe came in and said in a low voice, "Miss, Mother Liu next to Second Aunt said she wanted to see you, she came quietly, under the tree by the back window."
Xie Lingqin nodded when she heard the words, and a sneer flashed across the corner of her eyes, "It seems that I was frightened."
"Can you not be scared, Miss, you took care of both the housekeeper and the incense cage without any effort, and you dragged the second aunt into the water all at once, although the second lady seems to be fine, It's not too easy, that's all, if Madam Liu is not afraid, she is really brave enough."
Xie Lingqin narrowed her eyes slightly, and stood up, "Well, let's bring her in."
Not long after, Zihe brought Mammy Liu in.
"Putong." Liu Mama knelt down towards Xie Lingqin, "Old slave, this old slave has seen Missy."
"I don't know why Madam Liu is looking for me?" Xie Lingqin asked.
"Old slave, old slave..." Mammy Liu kowtowed heavily to the ground as she said, "This old slave asks Missy to spare her life. From now on, Old Lady will not dare to disobey anything that Missy tells Old Nurence to do. "
"No, I don't dare to use someone like you." Xie Lingqin waved his hand, and then sneered, "I just need to ask you one thing, and you just say it."
Nanny Liu immediately raised her head and asked, "What?"
"Does Xie Lingyu have any hidden illnesses that cannot be known?" Xie Lingqin asked.
Upon hearing this, Nanny Liu shook her head, "No, it's not that the second young lady was born in good health and everything is normal, and I haven't heard of any unmentionable illnesses in all these years."
Xie Lingqin looked at her, "Really?"
Nanny Liu immediately kowtowed, "Miss, don't worry, this old servant dare not lie to you."
"Okay, then you step back." Xie Lingqin saw that Nanny Liu did not look like she was lying, thought for a while, and waved her hand to let her back down.
Nanny Liu was obviously a little surprised that Xie Lingqin really let her go like this and didn't move.
Xie Lingqin smiled, "Why, I'm not afraid of being discovered by Second Aunt, just like poisoning Mother Yang, I will poison you to death."
As soon as these words came out, Mammy Liu was startled, "Miss, what are you talking about, Nanny Yang..."
"I didn't poison Yang Nanny to death. I don't need to poison a servant who has nothing to do with me." Xie Lingqin seemed too lazy to explain, and signaled Zihe to take her away.
Sending Liu Mama away, Zihe was a little puzzled, "Miss, if you let her go like this, will her words be reliable?"
Xie Ling nodded, "If it's unreliable, she won't come to me, but you don't have to worry, judging from the situation just now, Mammy Liu didn't know that it was the second aunt who poisoned Nanny Yang to death. She knows, tell me, will she be afraid in her heart, and will she be so devoted to Second Aunt?"
Zihe was suddenly enlightened, and raised his finger, "Miss, you are really tall, this way, it is safer than taking Liu Mama back and letting her do things for you."
Xie Lingqin smiled, "It's not about insurance, but I won't stay with such a selfish person as Nanny Liu. If she can betray Second Aunt, she will also betray me in the future."
Hearing this, Zihe looked at Xie Lingqin with admiration.
Step by step, it can be said that there are no omissions, others are complacent, but they don't know that everything the other party thinks and does has already been taken into the young lady's heart.
Second Aunt really stumbled this time.
into the night.
After Xie Lingqin changed into his men's clothes, he told Zihe, "I'm going out to do something. If things don't go well, I might not be here for the next three days. Help me cover up."
Before Zihe could refuse, he saw that Xie Lingqin had turned out the window.
Zihe caressed his forehead.
Miss is getting more and more mysterious.
Xie Lingqin jumped out of the General's Mansion and went to make peace with Bai Yu.
It was agreed before that we will go and find the owner of the site tonight.
When he arrived at the appointed place, Bai Yu was leaning against a big tree with a straw in his mouth. When he saw Xie Lingqin coming, he scratched his head and got a little impatient, "Say, where are you? Damn ghost, you can't meet during the day, you have to be at night."
"I think you are handsome, can you take a second look at night?" Xie Lingqin said in a worse tone than him.
Bai Yu suddenly opened his mouth, and then took two or three steps back, "Yanshe, you kid will not treat me..."
"I don't have this habit, thank you." Xie Lingqin felt that Bai Yu was cuter when he was broken in love.
"Tell me about the previous results." Xie Lingqin didn't waste any time, asking as he walked.
Bai Yu's eyebrows twitched, and the corners of her lips pouted, "Oh, what else is there to ask, the people I sent must have returned without success, otherwise you and I would have to go out in person, as I said earlier, The old man has a strange temper, he is not easy to get along with, he is unreasonable, and now he is not playing chess, but eating chili, and we can talk about it if he can eat three big dustpans in a row."
Xie Lingqin paused, looked sideways at Bai Yu, and saw Bai Yu's face was gloomy and gloomy. Obviously, what he said was true and not false.
"Oh." Xie Lingqin's brows and eyes flashed brightly.
"Aren't you stupid?" Bai Yu shuddered, feeling that the person beside him was a little perverted.
Xie Lingqin naturally ignored him, walked along this street, and soon arrived at a courtyard.
The vermilion door, and... the lock must not prevent thieves.
Xie Lingqin was a little speechless.
This master has a really big heart.
Xie Lingqin raised his hand to knock on the door, but Bai Yu suddenly grabbed his sleeve.
Looking sideways, Xie Lingqin looked at him suspiciously, "Do you want to do things like knocking on the door?"
"I..." Bai Yu felt that Xie Lingqin was really narcissistic, and breathed out, "I just want to say, you should think carefully, if there is nothing good to do, just wait."
"I have a solution, don't wait." Xie Lingqin said, and then, he knocked on the door.
"Come in." As soon as he knocked, there was a voice from inside the door. It was the voice of an old man. Just hearing it, he could clearly feel a strong sense of alienation and drive away.
Xie Lingqin didn't take it seriously, and pushed the door open.
Reluctantly, Bai Yu twitched her dancing eyebrows and followed closely behind.

(End of this chapter)
"I believe Sister Xianglong was framed." Xie Lingqin suddenly came in from behind and said loudly.
There were not many people in the courtyard, but there were also many people. Hearing this, they all looked at Xie Lingqin.
Especially sitting there can be said to be a fragrant cage with a heart like ashes, and there is a glint of hope in his eyes.
"Miss, it was the servant who dragged these two shameless people out with her own eyes. Really, the servant woke up early this morning, touched the cold one next to the bed, and came out to look for the person who didn't see this old thing, and found it here. You, you can't speak for her just because Xianglong is served by the master's study."
The housekeeper's rough wife, the previous sentence was quite high-pitched, but no matter how rough she was, she knew that Xie Lingqin was the eldest lady of the general's mansion, and she was not something that a servant could take over, so her voice became lower and lower. some.
Xie Lingqin didn't look angry, but she was justly cautious, "Mrs. Housekeeper, think about it, Sister Xianglong is serving in my father's study, and she is highly valued by my father. Since the night before, I have been assigned to Qingshui The pavilion taught me embroidery, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the housekeeper, who is middle-aged, married a virtuous and family-friendly wife like you. Sister Xianglong is not bad in appearance, no matter what, she will not..."
Xie Lingqin accepted the words appropriately.
However, the meaning of the words is already very clear.
She is still a big girl with yellow flowers, she is highly valued and has a bright future, why do you want to find you a half-bad old man, and you are still working in a place with so many people like the guest room.
When the housekeeper's wife heard this, her complexion changed, as if there was some reason.
"Miss, you must say something fair for this old slave, the conscience of heaven and earth, old slave, old slave, you can swear to the sky that you have never done anything to betray your wife, let alone in this general's mansion. The old slave must have been framed for doing such a dirty thing."
Seeing this, the butler at the side immediately crawled over on his knees. He was nearly middle-aged, crying with snot and tears.
Xie Lingqin wanted to vomit.
Return the conscience of heaven and earth, and swear to the sky.
Last night, I had a great time with Madam Liu.
Now come to count on her to rescue him?
Ah.
"Why don't you two think about it again, did something strange happen last night?"
Xie Lingqin concealed the disdain in her heart, and asked seriously.
Hearing this, both the housekeeper and Xianglong began to think carefully.
"Miss."
Second Aunt finally couldn't stand it any longer, her voice almost suppressed her anger.
"Second Aunt, you don't think Sister Xianglong would do this, do you?"
Xie Lingqin, however, followed Second Aunt's displeased call and pulled a thousand pounds.
The second aunt lost her word as soon as she entered.
Although the facts did not play out according to her expectations, it was a good thing for her to be able to destroy the incense cage, and she was happy to see it happen.
Right now, if she trusts Xianglong so much, if Xianglong is not reconciled, she will force her to investigate thoroughly immediately. If the general hears about it and investigates, the matter will really be serious.
This damn Xie Lingqin, not only is his mouth more powerful than before, but his brain also seems to be smarter.
Could it be that you still want to take advantage of this to pull the incense cage?
After a while, the second aunt said with some concerns, "Miss, you are a girl who has not left the court, so I don't need to bother you about this kind of matter. Let me handle it."
Xie Lingqin didn't seem to understand the meaning of these words, "It seems that Second Aunt also thinks that Sister Xianglong and the housekeeper were framed."
Second Aunt's eyes darkened.
"Big sister, it's not good for you to talk like that. After all this happened, what my mother said, it's useless to say anything without evidence."
On the side, knowing that this might be a trap, Xie Lingyu opened her mouth thinly and softly, and helped Second Aunt out of trouble.
Xie Lingqin's eyes were fixed, "Yeah, so I have to check, or..." Xie Lingqin walked over again, bent over and looked at the incense cage, "Sister Xianglong, think about it carefully, are you I didn't offend anyone, that's why..."
As soon as Xie Lingqin said this, Second Aunt's complexion changed slightly, and she immediately felt bad.
The relationship between her and Xianglong was originally based on her relying on the general's favor, threatening and warning as an aunt, and everything was good, but it was just pretending.
If Xianglong, who is not clear-headed, thinks that it was her who did it, and then identifies it as her, it will be really ruined.
It's too late to say it's too late, Second Aunt immediately told the mother beside her, "It's cold, Liu mother, go and help the Xianglong girl, go back to the room first."
"……Yes Yes."
Nanny Liu's mind was still wandering in outer space, hanging down, nodding almost mechanically.
The second aunt didn't care.
However, when Mama Liu approached Xianglong, there seemed to be a gust of wind in the sky, pushing her to the ground, and she fell directly in front of Xianglong.
Looking up for a moment, such a panicked expression just fell into Xianglong's eyes.
Hit so clearly.
Like a ray of light, it suddenly intersected with Xianglong's eyes.
"Miss, it was Second Aunt who framed me."
Without any warning, Xianglong spoke loudly, swearing.
Xie Lingqin was in a place where no one was around, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes.
What is the straw that broke the camel's back, this is it.
Xianglong is not a brainless person. She lost her innocence and damaged her reputation. One can imagine how miserable the days will be in the future. However, after going through so many changes in a short period of time, she didn't have a clear head. In addition, she was secretly poisoning herself, so she felt guilty, so she unconsciously believed that Second Aunt could help her.
However, at the moment Liu Mama fell down, the frightened look in her eyes hit her heart directly, making her understand her situation thoroughly.
In the entire general's mansion, the person who most wanted to harm her and make her die was Second Aunt.
She was obviously drugged last night, and that drug, wasn't it the second aunt who asked her to give the young lady the medicine before.
Only she knows these things best in her heart.
Therefore, she can only testify against the second aunt now, maybe she will have a good time relying on the eldest lady in the future.
But in the entire guest courtyard, after hearing Xiang Long's words, there was a burst of sighing, but they all lowered their heads, not daring to look here again.
The aunts and concubines who had already heard the news and dared to come stood there watching the excitement.
The surrounding flowers and branches swayed in the wind, but the atmosphere was deadly quiet.
"Xianglong, what nonsense are you talking about?" Second Auntie's face that was always holding every inch and every inch, finally changed.
"Isn't Second Aunt very clear about what I said?" Xiang Long didn't compromise.
She seemed to have great courage now.
Second Aunt frowned, a look of hostility flashed across her eyes, she glanced at Xie Lingqin, then looked around, stepped forward a few steps, and raised her hand.
"Snapped."
The crisp slap fell on Xianglong's face so lightly.
"It's all about being dirty. I guessed that you have been in the general's mansion for so many years, so I didn't deal with you immediately. Fortunately, you actually framed me."
Xianglong wiped the blood that flowed from the corner of his mouth, and stared at Second Aunt angrily, "Second Aunt, do you dare to say that you didn't ask me to poison and kill Eldest Miss?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole yard became eerily quiet.
"You bitch, see if I don't tear your mouth apart today."
The second aunt was so angry that her face was contorted, and she was about to step forward, but Xie Lingqin "struggled" stopped her, "Second aunt, please speak up if you have something to say, Sister Xianglong is just testifying against you, right and wrong, let's ask father to investigate carefully It's fine if you don't."
"Check? Xie Lingqin, go away, otherwise, I will be rude to you."
Xie Lingqin was so pushed by the second aunt, and fell to the ground so lightly.
"Ah, miss, what's wrong with you." Zihe immediately stepped forward nervously to help.
Xie Lingqin "gaped up in pain" but waved his hands carelessly, "It's nothing, nothing."
"You bitch, I'm going to tear your mouth open to see if you're still open." The second aunt ignored Xie Lingqin at all, and just laid hands on the incense cage.
Xie Lingqin immediately called the guard girl in the yard, "Quickly, quickly pull away Second Auntie, someone, go and inform father."
"……Yes Yes Yes."
Those girls were stunned for a while, and they were about to report immediately, but they were suddenly scolded by the second aunt.
"Stop." With a stern sound, Second Aunt glared at Xie Lingqin, "Xie Lingqin, if you let Xianglong talk nonsense, be careful of your life."
"enough."
An angry shout.
General Xie had already strode in with his guards, looked around, and finally, his eyes fell directly on Er Yiliang, "What are you, you dare to kill her."
She, of course, refers to Xie Lingqin.
The second aunt's heart flustered, she didn't understand why she was so impulsive just now, but she stepped forward immediately, feeling extremely wronged, "General, general, you are here, don't listen to this incense cage nonsense, she, she must be with the eldest lady!" Collusion, come to frame me, really."
"Look at what you look like now." General Xie waved his sleeves and took a step back.
"General, you're finally here. It's her, Second Aunt, who said it. She has managed to get the general to listen to her. She has brought me to Missy's side to watch her. At such a good time, she gave me the poison." , asked me to poison, and Second Aunt also said that as long as the Eldest Miss died, she would be able to straighten her up, and the Second Miss would be a legitimate daughter, but I couldn't bear it, so I secretly threw away the poison." Cage talked and cried, "But I never thought, I never dreamed that the second aunt would treat me like this, and she didn't hesitate to drag others into the water."
What Xianglong said was heartbroken, more injustice, bitterness, and grievance than that of Dou E.
Not to mention Xie Lingqin, even Zihe beside him couldn't help but roll his eyelids.
This incense stick is really capable of pretending. If she and the young lady didn't know the inside story, she would feel that this incense stick was wronged.
Obviously, what Second Aunt gave her was not poison, but she changed the poison privately.
It's not that she didn't poison, it's just that the young lady didn't eat the poisoned food.
Xianglong doesn't care now, all her hopes are on Xie Lingqin and General Xie, and she has no way to think about the question of why Xie Lingqin didn't die after being poisoned.
She only knew that only by testifying against Second Concubine and bringing down Second Concubine, would she have a chance of rebirth today.
"General, you must be the master of this servant. The servant has been in the general's mansion for so many years and has never missed a job." Xianglong cried almost desperately.
"General, don't listen to this bitch's nonsense, I don't have one." The second aunt also cried and retorted, "General, you believe me, I didn't intend to poison the eldest lady to death."
That's right, you just wanted to make my life worse than death, so you prescribed medicine.
It's just that the medicine was replaced by the incense cage.
Oh, these two are really interesting.
You want to drag me into the water, I want to bring you down.
"Shut up."
Finally, General Xie was obviously aroused into anger, and the veins on his forehead burst out. Looking at the two of them, "You all are so decent."
"You, from today onwards, deprive you of the housekeeper's right, stay in the room, and don't go out for half a step without my order. Anyone who violates it will be expelled immediately."
These words were said to Second Auntie, every word was so powerful that Second Auntie was dumbfounded, she knelt on the ground with a plop, "General, General, you can't do this to me, I didn't poison you."
"Hmph, now that things are going on, why do you still want to argue, Second Aunt, you made me like this, you..."
"Shut up."
The word General Xie made Xianglong's voice come to an abrupt end.
"Come here, take her to the locked room, and lock her up first."
"Yes."
Behind him, the guard stepped forward and took the incense cage down after a while.
This is, do not check?
It also clearly left a way for the two of them to survive.
Xie Lingqin was obviously not satisfied with this result, but with King Xian's thoughts on Xie Lingyu, this father would not really do anything to Second Aunt.
"Master, General, what about this old slave, this old slave doesn't know anything, old slave..." At this time, the steward also stepped forward to defend himself.
General Xie just looked at him silently, and that glance was already without any color, and then, the general pinched the center of my eyebrows in pain, "You, you have been in the general's mansion for so many years... I will go to the cashier to get the three-month routine silver , family, leave the General’s Mansion.”
"Ah, no, General." The butler shook his head, a big man, tears were streaming down his face.
The thick man's wife at the side also understood that this was a big loss, and immediately knelt down with the butler, "General, this, my husband just plowed someone else's land, and it wasn't intentional, why did he drive him away."
This word...
Xie Lingqin couldn't help admiring, this housekeeper's wife is really shocking.
And plowed other people's fields.
You know, this father, after all these years, would not believe him if he said that he really didn't care about Xianglong.
And now these words...
Looking at General Xie's complexion as black as a stinking pig's liver, Xie Lingqin couldn't help but want to laugh.
This invisible green hat.
It's really sour.
"Take it."
General Xie has already waved his hand, the sound can make the heart stop.
Immediately, guards stepped forward and took the housekeeper and his wife down.
"General..."
Second Aunt seemed to want to defend something, but just said two words, touched General Xie's dark complexion that could kill people, she stopped her mouth.
After sharing the same bed with the general for so many years, how much does he know when not to speak.
But, just now, why was she so angry that she lost her composure.
"Mother, let me help you go back."
Seeing that the situation was not right, Xie Lingyu didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, but at this moment, she obediently stepped forward to help the second aunt, and lowered her eyebrows at General Xie, "Father, mother has treated you for so many years!" , It's really good." After saying that, he helped Second Aunt to walk outside.
At such a time, such a reaction should be expected of a smart person, but, heh, it is useless for General Xie to be so angry.
Immediately afterwards, the incense cage was also taken down.
"No one can talk nonsense about today's matter. Anyone who violates it will be responsible for the consequences." Looking around the courtyard, General Xie's stern voice spread.
At that moment, there was an aura of scolding the three armies.
Xie Lingqin couldn't help but look at General Xie more.
It seems that General Xie was really angry about today's matter.
With so many strange things happening in the mansion day by day, I'm afraid that General Xie will really get angry.
Well lit.
It's time to get angry.
If you get angry, don't bother her again.
"Lingqin."
General Xie drove away the crowd, and his eyes fell on Xie Lingqin, "My father has seen what happened today, and I have caused you to be wronged."
"Father is serious, and my daughter is not wronged at all. Since she woke up after sleeping for two days, she has become more and more aware of many things. It seems that everything in the world has opened up. She also began to think about sharing the burden for her father, Second Auntie. It's also busy to manage the middle school in the mansion, I can't help her, so I want to be more self-sufficient, as for today's matter..."
Xie Lingqin looked helpless, but neither humble nor overbearing.
Now that General Xie has doubts about her, she might as well confess that she is different from before, she is upright, making it impossible for him to attack.
Furthermore.
This father had obviously been here since the beginning of this farce, but he was watching the movement in the dark.
Otherwise, she would still spend all that energy trying to figure out what to do with acting.
Xie Lingqin's thoughts fluttered, and he saluted, "I also ask my father to investigate this matter clearly. I don't believe that my second aunt would poison me, but after spending two days with Sister Xianglong, she is very nice. Besides, she I am also a person who is capable of my father, I..."
Xie Lingqin was obviously also in a difficult situation, and in the end she didn't say much, and bowed, "Then my daughter will leave first."
"Go back and apply some medicine, because Second Aunt pushed it just now, there must be scratches."
General Xie gave instructions behind him.
Xie Lingqin nodded, with a touch of emotion on his face, "Thank you, thank you father."
General Xie looked at Xie Lingqin's back being supported by the maid, and it took him a long time to look away.
"General, do you want your subordinates to thoroughly investigate the matter of Second Aunt and Xianglong?"
Aside, the guard stepped forward to report.
Xie Zhuangjun didn't speak.
……
Xie Lingqin led Zihe all the way back to Qingshui Pavilion, and after entering the house, Zihe said, "Miss, what do you mean shameless, this servant has learned a lot today."
"Well, there are too many shameless people. At the moment of life and death, no one cares about who's identity. They just want to hold on to the straw and live well." Xie Lingqin was not very angry.
"However, miss, according to this servant, although the second aunt is vicious and cruel, she is cautious and considerate in her daily actions, so that no one will see her in the slightest. Why is she so impulsive today? It's justified for Xianglong, so much As for people, they don't care about you at all."
Zihe was a little puzzled.
But Xie Lingqin took out something from his sleeve and handed it to her.
Zihe's eyes fixed, it was a porcelain white vial.
Zihe took it suspiciously, "This is..."
"I found it at the window corner of the house before. I didn't expect it to work."
Zihe was about to open it, but was stopped by Xie Lingqin, "No, just now when Second Aunt approached, I just uncorked the bottle for a moment, and that's it for her. Are you sure you can never be harassed?"
When Zihe heard it, his complexion immediately tightened, "Then this thing..."
Xie Lingqin pursed the corners of her lips, "I guess the crown prince gave it to me."
"Prince?"
"Otherwise, why I didn't react when I smelled it, other than my strong character, I'm afraid it's because of the effect of taking Tianxiangxueyu pill."
Of course, she liked to mess with poison in her previous life, which is similar to poison, so she knew it when she heard it.
Originally, I thought there was a strange smell in the room, so I checked it out, and found this.
Zihe handed the vial back to Xie Lingqin, and swallowed.
She finally understood that she had punished Second Aunt and Xianglong, but Miss Why was still not very happy.
It's because, prince.
Miss to the prince...
It seems really annoying.
"However, if Second Aunt realizes it later, will it be..."
"No, the moment this thing volatilizes, it is colorless and odorless, and there is only one thing, except that Second Aunt feels strange, and does not have any doubts."
After Xie Lingqin finished speaking, she looked at the medicine bottle again, and then threw it into the basin beside her.
"Miss……"
Zihe wanted to stop it.
Isn't such a good thing ruined?
"There is nothing to show courteousness to, if it's rape or steal, just treat it like a prince and never give it to me."
Xie Lingqin said almost deceivingly, then walked to the soft couch table, picked up a book, and read it carefully.
Zihe stayed there for a long time, and finally went down with the water basin.
"By the way, what I asked Tridacna to do yesterday, is it finished?"
Xie Lingqin said again.
Zihe responded, "Yes, Miss."
Only then did Xie Lingqin look at the scroll in his hand.
However, on this day, the atmosphere in the general's mansion was strange and not peaceful.
It is said that after lunch, Xie Lingyu went to General Xie to intercede with his second aunt, but General Xie was so angry that he didn't see her at all.
Xie Lingyu was not angry, but knelt in the direction of General Xie's house.
The weather in autumn is not comparable to that in spring.
Not to mention a spoiled young lady, even a rough girl can't stand it.
When the news reached Qingshui Pavilion, Xie Lingqin was eating snacks, and just said three words sarcastically.
"Bitter trick."
"Miss, will the bitter plan be useful?"
Xie Lingqin smiled lightly, "Let's see."
into the night.
The general's mansion was finally restored to peace.
As soon as Xie Lingqin finished his dinner, a girl hurried into Qingshui Pavilion.
"Miss, this servant is the person that Sister Xianglong is usually close to, and I need to see you urgently."
Xie Lingqin was standing at the threshold at this time, upon hearing this, she glanced at the little maid in the dark, "Say."
"I went to meet Sister Xianglong secretly before, she was very bad in the purple room, and the general didn't say anything, so I asked my servant to ask you to go and discuss it, and by the way, I will tell you how the second aunt is doing. Harm you, let you take precautions in the future."
The little girl's breath was not stable because of the sprint, but the words were clear, but her eyes dodged.
interesting.
Xie Lingqin thought for a while, then waved to Zihe, "Zihe, let's go and have a look."
"Miss, during the day, the general later ordered that no one should go to see Xianglong. If you go..."
Zihe disagrees.
Xie Lingqin glanced at her, but she was very kind, "It's nothing, if you can help Sister Xianglong, it's a good deed."
Zihe had no choice but to keep up.
"By the way, take the things I prepared before, and I will meet my father in a while."
Xie Lingqin gave another order.
Zihe followed his words.
The little servant girl raised her head slightly and walked in front, "Then, servant girl will lead the way for the young miss."
night, black.
The flowers and plants on both sides seem to have condensed the chill of autumn.
Xie Lingqin was wearing a cloak, and walked very steadily step by step.
The incense cage was locked in the purple room of Nanshan courtyard.
Under the darkness of night, the surroundings were quiet, apparently extremely lonely and desolate.
The little servant girl watched Xie Lingqin push the door and enter the room, and then retreated.
"Sister Xianglong, are you okay?"
Xie Lingqin called softly to the woman with disheveled hair, pale face, and tear-stained face in a corner of the woodshed.
Only then did Xianglong's eyes slowly fall on Xie Lingqin, "Miss, you came to see me, is the general going to let me out?"
Xie Lingqin had a sneer in his heart, but he stepped forward, "Don't worry, father believes in you, and will investigate this matter carefully."
"Miss, how can you say that? I still need to investigate carefully. I did what you said and framed the second aunt. Why haven't I been released yet? My innocence has been ruined by you. You What else do you want?"
Suddenly, Xianglong, who was still sitting in the corner just now, stood up abruptly, rushed over, grabbed Xie Lingqin's arm, and said in a high-pitched voice, "Miss, I don't complain, but you can't leave me alone. .”
"You, what did you say?"
Xie Lingqin tugged at his sleeves and stepped back with a puzzled look on his face.
"What did I say, miss, you can't cross the river and tear down the bridge..."
"boom."
At this moment, the door of the firewood room was suddenly kicked open.
General Xie stood at the door with a look of anger, looked at the two people in the room, and finally landed on Xie Lingqin, "Xie Lingqin, what do you have to say?"
"Big sister, I really didn't expect that you and Xianglong really joined forces to frame my mother."
Immediately behind General Xie, Xie Lingyu also walked in with a straight face.
The expressions of the father and daughter are exactly the same at this moment, under the quiet moonlight.
Especially Xie Lingyu, who could barely hide the excitement in his eyes.
However, facing General Xie and Xie Lingyu's testimonies, Xie Lingqin didn't see any panic, instead she was angry on her snow-white face, "Father, you and your sister are here too. And you."
"Looking for me?" General Xie frowned, his tone was not good, "You did this, and you still have the face to look for me?"
"I don't know what my daughter has done?" Xie Lingqin looked puzzled, and then looked at the incense cage, as if he had just realized, his face flickered immediately, and he shook his head, "Father, in your heart, is my daughter such an unbearable person?" .”
Xie Lingqin looked back at Xianglong again, "Sister Xianglong, I call you sister, all because of my father's sake, but I don't really think you are so great." Xie Lingqin said every word, Resoundingly.
There is no excuse, but it is already defending itself.
"Miss, what do you mean?"
Xianglong looked at Xie Lingqin so calmly, with a trace of panic on his face.
It was Xie Lingyu who came to her and said that she and the second aunt were fighting like this, and in the end it was Xie Lingqin who got the cheapest. As long as she was obedient, testified against Xie Lingqin, and picked herself out, that would be the best policy.
She makes sense.
"Father, believe it or not..." Xie Lingqin took out the embroidered handkerchief in his sleeve at this time, "Although it was only a day, sister Xianglong really taught me patiently. I am grateful, and now, I can't help her, so I thought about going to her room to get some embroidery work, which can be regarded as my gratitude, but I didn't expect..."
While talking, Xie Lingqin asked Zihe to pass the things to General Xie.
"Father, look at this embroidery, it was embroidered by sister Xianglong, right..."
General Xie frowned deeply, looked at Xie Lingqin's hand, "show me this embroidered handkerchief."
Xie Lingqin handed it over calmly, "Father, let's see, this stitch and thread..."
General Xie looked at the embroidered handkerchief, his brows were really tangled.
Xie Lingyu didn't know what to do, so he looked at it.
However, apart from the two mandarin ducks embroidered on this embroidered handkerchief, there is nothing special about it.
"You go down first."
After a long time, General Xie handed the embroidered handkerchief to Xie Lingqin, and there was no blame in his tone.
It seemed that the previous anger disappeared immediately.
What does this mean.
Xie Lingyu was so confused.
"Yes, father."
Xie Lingqin called Shang Zihe and retreated immediately.
These two mandarin ducks are not simple.
"Father……"
Xie Lingyu was not reconciled.
For someone as smart as my mother, now because Xie Lingqin is deprived of the right to head the house and fined to stay in the house, it is more serious than beating her and hurting her for her mother's position in the general's mansion.
And without her mother to rely on, she is more or less restrained in her actions.
Originally, he wanted to put him to death and be reborn, but he didn't expect that Xie Lingqin...
What happened to Sipa?
However, General Xie's cold eyes fell on Xie Lingyu at this moment, "Lingyu, I miss you because I am eager to save my mother. I will not punish you for the time being, but if there is a next time, I will never forgive you lightly."
That tone seemed to be wrapped in frost and snow, almost making Xie Lingyu kneel immediately.
But Xie Lingqin, who had already walked out of the Nanshan courtyard, listened to General Xie's words behind him, and imagined Xie Lingyu's unbelievable trembling, but he didn't feel relieved at all.
It was just a roar, after all, it was just for her to see.
That's right, Xie Lingyu is the one who wants to be Princess Xian.
"Miss, the general is so eccentric, what are you going to do in the future?"
Zihe will no longer persuade Xie Lingqin to have a good relationship with General Xie, because even an outsider can see it.
When General Xie looked at Miss, there was no love and pity in his eyes as a father looks at his daughter.
Yes, just infinite alienation and strangeness.
The young lady did not go wrong, but if there is a little mistake, it will be infinitely magnified.
"General Xie hates my mother."
After a long time, Xie Lingqin slightly opened his lips, and spit out a sentence, startled Zihe, "Miss, could it be the other way around, if you want to hate, it should be the general's wife who hates the general, obviously he... "
Of course Zihe wanted to say that General Xie married so many aunts and concubines, but he kept his mouth shut.
In this era, isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines? It's just that the general's wife is so popular that almost everyone thinks that such two should be a match made in heaven and transcend everything. The secular nature exists.
Xie Lingqin looked at Zihe's complexion, took in all her emotions, and looked at the faint crescent moon in the sky, with a cold smile on his lips.
"Zihe, three wives and four concubines are wrong."
Xie Lingqin said, as if he was talking about a matter of life and death.
Straightforward as never before.
So much so that Zihe's blood seemed to froze when he heard this sentence.
How could it be wrong?
In the Beirong Dynasty, in this world, men from poor families could not support themselves, so they had to have one wife and one ginger. But isn’t that the case for those rich and powerful families?
"One day, I want to let the people in this world know that being a couple for a lifetime is the most beautiful truth in the world."
Xie Lingqin spoke softly, and looked back at the sky, "Let's go, at least, for the time being, we'll be quiet for a while, and I can do what I want to do."
"Miss, what do you want to do?"
Zihe was very curious.
This curiosity made her hold back her reserved expression, but after spending several days with Xie Lingqin, she finally let go of it.
This master, she really treats her as her master.
Xie Lingqin smiled mysteriously.
Bright eyes and white teeth, eyebrows like feathers, wide sleeves and light.
That smile spread out little by little between the cold eyebrows and eyes, like a bright and bright light in the autumn moon, spreading into people's hearts, and it will never be forgotten for a long time.
"Soon, you'll know." Xie Lingqin was still keeping secrets.
Zihe was a little depressed.
"Last time I bought those little gadgets that people put away from the street. If you are free, you can take them out to bask in the sun and tidy them up."
Xie Lingqin threw out another sentence.
Zihe was somewhat comforted in his heart, but he still didn't understand.
Go back to Qingshui Pavilion.
Tridacna trotted up immediately, "Miss, are you all right?"
"Well, your embroidery is good, and you don't even have any doubts about the incense cage."
Xie Lingqin handed the veil just now to Tridacna, "Wash it, I'll reward you."
"Thank you, miss. It's good to be able to help you."
Xie Lingqin shook her head and smiled, without saying anything.
That's right, where did she have time to go to Xianglong's room to get an embroidered handkerchief, even if she could find it, she would not have time to poison it.
It's just asking Tridacna to draw a gourd according to the pattern, and yesterday I asked her to embroider one more piece in case of emergencies.
And in every stitch of the embroidery, Chunxinsan for men and women's boudoirs was embroidered.
Xianglong is not married yet, why did he do this, Xie Zhuangjun didn't know what to do?
Ah!
However, Xie Lingqin still heaved a sigh of relief.
When giving Xie General Xie Pa, she secretly tampered with the poison in her body.
Just like.
However, General Xie's complexion did not change at all, only the shock and anger at the embroidered handkerchief and Chun Xin San.
Therefore, it was not General Xie who poisoned her all along.
That day, when Zihe investigated and found out that the only person Dr. Jiang had seen before his death in the prison was General Xie, who had been in the general's mansion, she had doubts, but she still couldn't believe it.
However, whether General Xie knew about her poisoning is unknown.
……
Not long after, there was a breath of water, and it was the incense cage that had hanged itself.
This incident surprised Xie Lingqin.
Thinking about it left and right, that incense stick is not a person who would commit suicide.
Early the next day.
Xie Lingqin had just had dinner when Zihe came in and said in a low voice, "Miss, Mother Liu next to Second Aunt said she wanted to see you, she came quietly, under the tree by the back window."
Xie Lingqin nodded when she heard the words, and a sneer flashed across the corner of her eyes, "It seems that I was frightened."
"Can you not be scared, Miss, you took care of both the housekeeper and the incense cage without any effort, and you dragged the second aunt into the water all at once, although the second lady seems to be fine, It's not too easy, that's all, if Madam Liu is not afraid, she is really brave enough."
Xie Lingqin narrowed her eyes slightly, and stood up, "Well, let's bring her in."
Not long after, Zihe brought Mammy Liu in.
"Putong." Liu Mama knelt down towards Xie Lingqin, "Old slave, this old slave has seen Missy."
"I don't know why Madam Liu is looking for me?" Xie Lingqin asked.
"Old slave, old slave..." Mammy Liu kowtowed heavily to the ground as she said, "This old slave asks Missy to spare her life. From now on, Old Lady will not dare to disobey anything that Missy tells Old Nurence to do. "
"No, I don't dare to use someone like you." Xie Lingqin waved his hand, and then sneered, "I just need to ask you one thing, and you just say it."
Nanny Liu immediately raised her head and asked, "What?"
"Does Xie Lingyu have any hidden illnesses that cannot be known?" Xie Lingqin asked.
Upon hearing this, Nanny Liu shook her head, "No, it's not that the second young lady was born in good health and everything is normal, and I haven't heard of any unmentionable illnesses in all these years."
Xie Lingqin looked at her, "Really?"
Nanny Liu immediately kowtowed, "Miss, don't worry, this old servant dare not lie to you."
"Okay, then you step back." Xie Lingqin saw that Nanny Liu did not look like she was lying, thought for a while, and waved her hand to let her back down.
Nanny Liu was obviously a little surprised that Xie Lingqin really let her go like this and didn't move.
Xie Lingqin smiled, "Why, I'm not afraid of being discovered by Second Aunt, just like poisoning Mother Yang, I will poison you to death."
As soon as these words came out, Mammy Liu was startled, "Miss, what are you talking about, Nanny Yang..."
"I didn't poison Yang Nanny to death. I don't need to poison a servant who has nothing to do with me." Xie Lingqin seemed too lazy to explain, and signaled Zihe to take her away.
Sending Liu Mama away, Zihe was a little puzzled, "Miss, if you let her go like this, will her words be reliable?"
Xie Ling nodded, "If it's unreliable, she won't come to me, but you don't have to worry, judging from the situation just now, Mammy Liu didn't know that it was the second aunt who poisoned Nanny Yang to death. She knows, tell me, will she be afraid in her heart, and will she be so devoted to Second Aunt?"
Zihe was suddenly enlightened, and raised his finger, "Miss, you are really tall, this way, it is safer than taking Liu Mama back and letting her do things for you."
Xie Lingqin smiled, "It's not about insurance, but I won't stay with such a selfish person as Nanny Liu. If she can betray Second Aunt, she will also betray me in the future."
Hearing this, Zihe looked at Xie Lingqin with admiration.
Step by step, it can be said that there are no omissions, others are complacent, but they don't know that everything the other party thinks and does has already been taken into the young lady's heart.
Second Aunt really stumbled this time.
into the night.
After Xie Lingqin changed into his men's clothes, he told Zihe, "I'm going out to do something. If things don't go well, I might not be here for the next three days. Help me cover up."
Before Zihe could refuse, he saw that Xie Lingqin had turned out the window.
Zihe caressed his forehead.
Miss is getting more and more mysterious.
Xie Lingqin jumped out of the General's Mansion and went to make peace with Bai Yu.
It was agreed before that we will go and find the owner of the site tonight.
When he arrived at the appointed place, Bai Yu was leaning against a big tree with a straw in his mouth. When he saw Xie Lingqin coming, he scratched his head and got a little impatient, "Say, where are you? Damn ghost, you can't meet during the day, you have to be at night."
"I think you are handsome, can you take a second look at night?" Xie Lingqin said in a worse tone than him.
Bai Yu suddenly opened his mouth, and then took two or three steps back, "Yanshe, you kid will not treat me..."
"I don't have this habit, thank you." Xie Lingqin felt that Bai Yu was cuter when he was broken in love.
"Tell me about the previous results." Xie Lingqin didn't waste any time, asking as he walked.
Bai Yu's eyebrows twitched, and the corners of her lips pouted, "Oh, what else is there to ask, the people I sent must have returned without success, otherwise you and I would have to go out in person, as I said earlier, The old man has a strange temper, he is not easy to get along with, he is unreasonable, and now he is not playing chess, but eating chili, and we can talk about it if he can eat three big dustpans in a row."
Xie Lingqin paused, looked sideways at Bai Yu, and saw Bai Yu's face was gloomy and gloomy. Obviously, what he said was true and not false.
"Oh." Xie Lingqin's brows and eyes flashed brightly.
"Aren't you stupid?" Bai Yu shuddered, feeling that the person beside him was a little perverted.
Xie Lingqin naturally ignored him, walked along this street, and soon arrived at a courtyard.
The vermilion door, and... the lock must not prevent thieves.
Xie Lingqin was a little speechless.
This master has a really big heart.
Xie Lingqin raised his hand to knock on the door, but Bai Yu suddenly grabbed his sleeve.
Looking sideways, Xie Lingqin looked at him suspiciously, "Do you want to do things like knocking on the door?"
"I..." Bai Yu felt that Xie Lingqin was really narcissistic, and breathed out, "I just want to say, you should think carefully, if there is nothing good to do, just wait."
"I have a solution, don't wait." Xie Lingqin said, and then, he knocked on the door.
"Come in." As soon as he knocked, there was a voice from inside the door. It was the voice of an old man. Just hearing it, he could clearly feel a strong sense of alienation and drive away.
Xie Lingqin didn't take it seriously, and pushed the door open.
Reluctantly, Bai Yu twitched her dancing eyebrows and followed closely behind.
