Splendid concubine

Chapter 188 Investigate the truth
The court ladies and eunuchs who called Nanbi asked.

Recently, what is wrong with Nanbi, where did she go, and those people she met.

The maids and eunuchs shook their heads, expressing that they did not know.

Nothing was asked.

Liu Ruyi checked Nanbi's bedroom again. Again, although it was a bit gaudy, there was no problem.

Is that weird?

Is it a new disease that is not well known?
Since it was an illness, Liu Ruyi remembered that genius doctor Hua Wuqing, it would be useless to leave it there, so she hurried to ask him.

Telling Nan Concubine that there is still a turning point in her matter, so that Nan Concubine can avoid suicide, and at the same time, some court ladies who can learn martial arts are left behind to take care of Nan Concubine, and Liu Ruyi took a few little girls and left.

When passing by the street market, the four got out of the car and ate a bowl each because they were greedy for wontons, so they went to find Hua Wuqing.

After hearing what they said, Hua Wuqing frowned and said: "This is a novelty, I have never heard of it before. Hearing you say this, it feels like a kind of poison that makes people crazy, but you said that the patient is sober sometimes, it is strange." .”

What was sober from time to time was what Liu Jiaren said, and Aunt Jia went out of the house to do a great job, which was to find Yuanyuan and take her back to be a roommate for Liu Ren'an.

Gao Wenwen insisted, "That must be abnormal, how could it be possible to find a room for you when it is normal?"

She just got married to Lin Sanshui, the two of them are still in love, the relationship is very good, the Gao family is a loving husband and wife, General Gao and Madam Gao have been married for a lifetime, General Gao has no concubines, and the children are all born by Madam Gao Yes, of course it is different.

Naturally, Gao Wenwen thought about it from her own perspective.

When Mu Zitan thought of finding a room for Xiao Moli, he also felt that Aunt Jia was out of order.

Although the Mu family has a concubine, the backyard is very peaceful, and the Mu family can be regarded as a loving couple.

The emperor in the palace also favors Concubine Lin. Although there are many concubines, he and Concubine Lin are often together, which seems to be very affectionate.

Of course they don't understand.

Liu Ruyi smiled wryly, feeling that these little girls were a bit naive, and then thought of herself, if Yanyan had another woman, would she be angry if she wanted to share Yanyan with another woman?
Yes, Liu Ruyi told herself.

When we were together with Xiao Qi in the previous life, there were women in Xiao Qi's backyard, how was he then?
Although he doesn't love Xiao Qi, he is still angry.

very angry.

Although she can still support the concubine's daughter magnanimously, it's different after all.

In particular, Xiao Qi was a shameless person who got involved with Liu Xuanshuang, and that incident made her even more furious.

Unconsciously clutching her chest, Liu Ruyi felt a little distressed.

"Second Sister, what's wrong with you?" Liu Jiaren found that something was wrong with Liu Ruyi, and asked quickly.

"Me?" Liu Ruyi was a little dazed.

"I don't think so. You don't know Aunt Jia very well, including Liu Jiaren. This is just a symptom of Aunt Jia's illness. Because she has no sense of security in her heart, she feels that the master no longer loves her, so she finds Tongfang to put her in the house." In my yard, I hope to attract the master and get more attention." Liu Ruyi's words made several little girls not understand.

But it doesn't matter what you don't understand.

Liu Ruyi said directly to Hua Wuqing: "I think that after the onset of the disease, people become extreme, suspicious, and reveal their nature even more."

Hua ruthlessly nodded, "I saw a folk prescription in the master's notes before, which is exactly the case. It is said to be a kind of flower seed called hell flower. When it is ground and smelled, it will reveal people's nature. At that time, I thought it was quite scary. It should be the master’s hearsay that there is no such thing. If you say that, I think it may be true.”

"Then did your master say how to solve it?" Liu Ruyi was a little excited.

Liu Jiaren looked at Hua Wuqing with bright eyes.

"This..." Hua ruthlessly pondered.

"Whether there is, tell me quickly." Liu Jiaren said anxiously.

"My master has heard it himself, and he didn't write how to solve it, but now that he knows the approximate reason, there is a solution. Everything is mutual generation and mutual restraint. If you can find out who is doing the wrong thing, you can find out how to solve it." Hua Wuqing said firmly.

Instead, Liu Jiaren breathed a sigh of relief.

"Genius doctor, you must find a way. My mother is already very serious. She was crying on the bed all day. Even if I go, she thinks that I will kill the younger brother in her stomach and drive me out." Liu Jiaren said The little face was full of begging, Hua Wuqing subconsciously nodded.

"That's it, let's look for it. It's possible that the two of them smelled the hellflower seeds somewhere." Liu Ruyi touched her chin and concluded.

"By the way, genius doctor, do hell flowers smell like?" Liu Ruyi asked quickly.

"In the master's notes, it is said that it has a slightly fishy milk smell, which is similar to cow's milk and goat's milk, but there is also a little bit of grass smell in it. The master must have seen the plant of hell flower and drew a picture Yes, but the drawing is too abstract, I can't tell what it is at all, so I didn't take it seriously, I just thought it was the lines drawn by the master." Hua Wuqing thought for a while before saying.

When Hua Wuqing was captured and brought back, everything on him was searched, including all his belongings. Speaking of which, it was Liu Ruyi who did it, and Liu Ruyi blushed a little.

However, it should be possible to go back and find the things that Hua Wuqing was confiscated at that time.

As soon as he said it, Liu Ruyi took people to the palace to interrogate the maids and eunuchs again.

Aunt Jia is not in a hurry, the mansion will not let people out, so she has to know first.

But at Nanpin's place, she would be silenced by someone in the palace every now and then.

Fortunately, when returning to the palace, Concubine Lin specially sent more people to watch over her because of the emperor's words, and Liu Ruyi also specially sent people to guard it.

Called the mother, maids, and eunuchs to ask again, but there was still no gain. Even the concubines hated cow's milk and goat's milk so much that they didn't know how to eat it. Even the milk bath that the concubines in the palace liked, the concubines were not interested. .

However, during the questioning, Liu Ruyi noticed that the corner of a nanny's mouth was pursed, as if she had some thoughts.

"Next, come in one by one, I want to ask questions." Liu Ruyi ordered.

Deliberately, some people have a longer time, some people have a shorter time, there is no regularity.

When she got to the nanny who pursed her lips, Liu Ruyi said straightforwardly: "When I asked you just now, you seemed to have some thoughts, even if you said something wrong, I will go to verify it, there is nothing wrong with you, you Knowing the status of me and the princess, it is more than enough to keep you."

After hearing Liu Ruyi's assurance, the nanny finally said: "Most people in the palace know that our concubine Nan hates cow's milk and goat milk, but a few days ago, the day before she found out that concubine Nan was pregnant, the empress sent Someone sent a plate of milk and almond emerald cakes, saying that there are milk, almonds and tender malt in it, our mother naturally dare not complain, but after waiting there, someone secretly threw it away."

"However, the empress later sent someone to say that the people around the empress made a mistake. Originally, the empress ordered mung bean hibiscus pancakes for the concubine Nan. Our empress is not usually favored by the empress, so we are still very excited of."

"Then did you throw out the plate of milk cakes?" Liu Ruyi asked quickly.

It would be great if it was still there.

It was only three or four days since Nanbi was diagnosed with pregnancy, and the milk cake was only four or five days old. Things are not easy to break in winter, and if no one eats them, maybe they can be preserved.

"I scolded the maids who were throwing milk pancakes for eating them, because they were so greedy." Mammy said hastily, with a hint of showing off her merits.

"Go out and identify those little maids, lock them up first, and follow me first." Liu Ruyi said hastily.

This is a bit strange. Although the empress often says the wrong thing on purpose, she has been the empress for many years. Since she has not been caught by the emperor, she knows that she is a cautious person on weekdays, and the people around her should be the same , how could he make such a mistake that everyone in the palace knew?

If the other party is a low-ranking one, that's fine. Nanbi is a concubine, so her status is not low.

Combined with the characteristics of Hell Flower, which is more like cow's milk and goat's milk, and the almonds remove the fishy smell, and the so-called malt gives off a grassy smell, it is likely to be Hell Flower.

There must be something odd about it.

But the bad thing is, I forgot to ask Hua Wuqing just now, what would it look like if I ate the hell flower, and if I met a few little maids, I would be more sure.

He hurriedly sent Fu Ling to ask Hua Wuqing, Fu Ling was quick to do things, and after a while, she asked back, saying that she was not sure, it seemed that her eyes were a little red.

Liu Ruyi hurriedly sent someone to light soothing incense on the little maids who were locked up, and let them sleep first, so as not to cause red eye sockets due to sleepiness, which would affect their judgment.

It is estimated that it will take a long time to wake up. Taking advantage of this time, Liu Ruyi brought a few people who followed along to join in the fun and went back to Liu's mansion.

Sure enough, this formation alarmed the old lady.

The old lady hurried over and was persuaded by Liu Ruyi to go back. She simply told the old lady that she suspected that Aunt Jia had been killed by someone, or she accidentally ate something by mistake. Ruyi was startled.

Aunt Jia is the old lady's favorite person, so Liu Ruyi naturally knows it.Therefore, the old lady firmly followed Liu Ruyi to interrogate the people around Aunt Jia.

Speaking of this, although the matter of Aunt Jia has been going on for a long time.

But soon, Aunt Jia's personal maid remembered something strange.

"Our aunt does use milk for bathing on weekdays, but at that time, I found it strange that goat's milk seemed to be used, which had a fishy smell, and there was a smell of grass in it that the second lady said. At that time, I thought it was used by my aunt. The petals are not done properly, and the grass stems are mixed in."

Hearing this, several people were a little surprised. They didn't expect the investigation to go so smoothly. The so-called milk that my aunt used tasted so similar to the regional flowers. There must be something wrong.
