Splendid concubine

Chapter 189 The Truth
"Then do you know that there is any other difference between that bath and the usual one?" Liu Ruyi asked.

The servant girl thought for a long time before she remembered it.

"I remembered that the little guy who purchased in the kitchen happened to be sick that day, and a different person purchased it, so I made a mistake. My aunt was not very happy at the time, and that person came to make amends in person, but I never did it again. I have seen him." The servant girl said hesitantly.

"Grandmother, although I have been in charge of the house, I don't have any serious relationship with Aunt Jia, and I have a very good relationship with her. I guess someone else is powerful in the house and interfered with this matter." Liu Ruyi said hastily.

"The only ones in the mansion who can intervene in this matter are the mother, grandmother, Aunt Jia and me who have already gone." Liu Ruyi analyzed and told the old lady everything she learned.

The old lady was already a little angry, "Who do you have to doubt? It is impossible for Jiajia to deceive herself, I like Jiajia so much, not to mention that the thief disappeared after that, it must be the dead Mrs. Zhao, that poisonous woman!"

Then, the old lady said excitedly: "I even have a motive. Jiajia is pregnant. Of course, I take care of it carefully. The food and furnishings, burning spices, and clothes are all very meticulous. She actually took advantage of this loophole." She is afraid that Jiajia will give birth to a son and delay the boss!"

Come on, the old lady has already said all her motives, so it should be the eldest lady without a doubt.

"However, now that my mother is gone, I can't find anyone to look for, and the palace is made by the queen, so I can't move it. The important thing is to find out where the flower is, and see if there is an antidote. Now, why don't you use it to test the medicine, and after the test, you can give it to Aunt Jia." Liu Ruyi felt that it was not good to use Nanbi to test the medicine, but fortunately Nanbi was not a good person, otherwise her conscience would be condemned.

Although she was reborn, Liu Ruyi still didn't want to go against her conscience too much, including on the hunting ground, letting the tiger pounce on the deer and the horse to save her life, she felt a little guilty, but after all, people want to live, and they can't. Do too much.

Feeling that she was too sentimental, Liu Ruyi hurriedly let all the thoughts out of her mind.

This matter must not be done from the Queen's side, but from the Da Furen's side.

Everything today is considered lucky.

Fortunately, after the eldest lady left, the maids of the eldest lady in the mansion were just sent by the old lady to wash clothes in the laundry room to do rough work, and they were not driven out to sell.

It is mainly about the matter of the eldest lady, which cannot be seen in the light. The old lady is afraid that those people will let them out and cause trouble.

Soon, the lady who was close to her, and the maids who had served the lady were brought.

Washing clothes in winter still uses cold water. Naturally, it is hard work, and the hands of those maids and women are all cracked and swollen.

It's sad to watch, but there are no innocent people in the laundry room.

"If you speak well and satisfy the old lady and me, you won't have to suffer in the laundry room anymore." Liu Ruyi spoke first.

"If you don't say it, it's nothing. Although it's against the law to kill the servants in the family, the princess is here, and I have a princess and a prime minister in my family. It's easy to cover up this matter. Not only that, what do you think? Think about your own master, think about the eldest lady and the young master, even if they are engaged, it is easy for any accident to happen, and my wife still has grandchildren." The old lady interjected.

Liu Ruyi looked at the old lady in surprise.

Obviously what the old lady said was true, I never expected that the old lady loved Aunt Jia more than Liu Xuanshuang and the eldest son's grandchildren.

They still came one by one, and those who didn't come in were locked up, and they couldn't have any communication or petty actions.

When asked about a woman and a maid who were serving by the eldest lady's side, the expressions of the two of them were not normal, and some eyes were dodging, but it was not very obvious, and it was thanks to Liu Ruyi's sharp eyes that they were able to spot it.

"Close those two separately, tell them first, whoever confesses first will be able to release a large sum of money to live a good life, and the mansion will never retaliate, and those who confess later don't need to confess , Go suffer again, send her to clean the toilets, all the toilets in the mansion belong to her, and she has to be seen not to die. Then tell the maid that the mother-in-law confessed a little, and tell the woman that the maid confessed a little. "Liu Ruyi came up with an idea.

In my previous life, I used this trick a lot.

"Then, what we know is Hell Flower. I don't know if they call it that way, so let them know a little bit and tell them what the other party said."

"That's a good idea." The old lady also thought it was good.

Sure enough, the mother-in-law could persist in such an interrogation, but the maid couldn't bear it first.

It's no wonder that the maid only follows the doctor every two years, so naturally she doesn't have such a deep relationship. She still has a long way to go, so she naturally doesn't want to clean the toilet for the rest of her life.

Besides, the woman came with the eldest lady as a dowry, and seeing the eldest lady grow up, she naturally has a special relationship.

After listening to the maid's confession, the old lady nodded, and looked at Liu Ruyi, "Sure enough, you guessed it right, then Mrs. Zhao got the flower when she sent it out, and then she messed it up. It's also fortunate that she didn't deal with me. Otherwise, I don't know if I can escape." The old lady was still sobbing.

Sure enough, when people encounter this kind of thing, they are still selfish at first, but the old lady has been very kind to Aunt Jia.

Liu Ruyi was also very thankful that Da Furen didn't use these strange things on her.

However, it is estimated that this thing was made by the eldest son when he was studying abroad, but Liu Ruyi still dare not tell the old lady about this.

The maid didn't know exactly how to get it.

Liu Ruyi still kept her word, and gave the maid 2000 taels of silver, because she was not worried about the maid, and sent someone to send her to work in Zhuangzi, which was considered a place to go, and someone could help watch her.

but.I don't know how the flower came from, and I still can't find an antidote, but I just solved the case.

Knowing that Aunt Jia was not really crazy, but poisoned, the old lady was overjoyed, and Liu Jiaren even smiled sweetly and came over to hug Liu Ruyi's arm and act like a baby, "Second sister, you are the most powerful , if you hadn't spotted the abnormality with your piercing eyes, I would have thought my mother was really crazy. Second sister, I like you the most."

The old lady, who was relieved, also hurriedly came over to tease, "You girl like your second sister, don't you like grandma?"

"I like all of them. I also like my parents, princess, and Wenwen." The Liu family's mouths seemed to be smeared with honey, so naturally they would not be troubled by this question.

It's getting late, and it's time to pack up the palace banquet for New Year's Eve.

Liu Ruyi and the others went to dress up one after another, and the old lady also went to visit Aunt Jia.

The old lady hadn't forgotten about the old woman, she really sent her to clean the toilet.

Liu Ruyi had just returned to the yard, took a few people to wash their faces and redressed their makeup, when they heard the old lady send someone to invite her, saying that the woman had something to say.

The woman was so frightened that she was going to stay with the toilet for the rest of her life, she was so frightened that she tried her best to convince herself that even if she kept it a secret, the young lady and the young master couldn't keep it, and they kept asking to see the old lady.

The old lady originally felt that if she frightened the old woman, she might not be able to hold on.

All the toilets in the toilet area were deliberately made to be extremely disgusting, and even the spare toilets and temporarily unused toilets in the house were collected in one place for her to see.

Sure enough, the old woman was scared out of her wits. She used to do things like serving tea, pouring water and making the bed. When had she ever done this before?

"I said, I said everything, this grass was given to the lady by the young master, and he said he found it on a cliff in Yancheng. It was a black mess of grass stems, with a black flower the size of a fingertip on it. That's it."

What the woman said matched the Hell Flower in Master Huawuqing's notes.

It turned out that it was not a scribbled line, but a real mess.

Liu Ruyi immediately asked someone to send someone to watch Hua Wuqing go to Yancheng, and the old lady also sent an additional person from the Zhuangzi who was escorted by her natal family to run errands.

In this way, I can finally pack up and go to the palace banquet.

When Liu Mengxue heard that Liu Ruyi was at home, she hurried over to be with Liu Ruyi.

The five people were divided into two carriages, no one asked how Liu Xuanshuang was doing, and went directly to the palace.

In the palace, before the palace banquet started, Mu Zitan took his friends to Concubine Lin's place to tell Concubine Lin the story.

Liu Mengxue, who was completely ignorant of the situation, was completely shocked.

They also sent someone to look at Nanbi's place, and sure enough, those maids woke up with red eyes, and they were probably about to go crazy.

This hell flower is strange, the onset will be late after eating, and the onset will be early after smelling it.

Liu Ruyi suddenly had a guess, to see if these ladies in a few days have gone crazy, they must have smelled it when they ate, why are they not crazy yet?It is very likely that smelling it will make you crazy, but eating it is the antidote.

Hastily sent someone to chase Hua Wuqing and told Hua Wuqing this guess.Liu Ruyi felt a little relieved.

As for Nanbi's future, that's how it should be.

Just like Liu Xuanshuang's flower appreciation banquet back then, it was all her own true inner thoughts, so who is to blame?
Because it was New Year's Eve, there were branches tied with red silk everywhere in the imperial garden, and the bright red in the courtyard made people's eyes sour.

Even Mu Zitan was dressed up red all over by Concubine Lin, like a baby girl. Although he was helpless, he was ridiculed by the other girls, but he also endured it.

Fortunately, Mu Zitan is good-looking, it might be gaudy to wear on others, but it looks very good-looking on her.

Liu Ruyi was worried that the empress would have some tricks to deal with Concubine Lin at the palace banquet, so she privately persuaded Concubine Lin to use things first, not to eat and drink at the palace banquet, and to bring a few more close-knit court ladies who can know martial arts.

Concubine Lin sat on a step carried by four people, followed by a string of small tails, and set off for the palace banquet in a mighty manner.

There was ice everywhere in the imperial garden, Liu Ruyi was a little uneasy, always thinking that something big would happen tonight.

This period of time was too peaceful, as if the days were so peaceful and without waves.

However, the empress dowager, empress Dingguo and Princess Dingguo, Bizhu's people from the southern border, and Prince Liu Xuanshuang's group are not good people.
