Splendid concubine

Chapter 31 The Witch Gu Incident
Because of the old lady's words, Liu Ruyi got up every morning, greeted Mrs. Zhao, then went to the old lady's side, accompanied the old lady for dinner, and then spent almost the whole day in the old lady's yard.

When the old lady was taking a nap, Liu Ruyi went to chat with the maids in the old lady's yard, and usually let Xiangyi gossip with the little maids in the old lady's yard about the house.

The experience of her previous life told Liu Ruyi that many insignificant little maids can sometimes play a big role.

Moreover, the servant girl is the person who knows the mansion best.

In a few days, most of the maids in the old lady's yard became familiar with Liu Ruyi.Liu Ruyi was not as superior as the other ladies, and she was generous with her hands. She took out all the meals, snacks and fruits on weekdays and shared them with them.

Squatting together in a place under the porch where no one is paying attention, having snacks, chatting about the gossip in the mansion, and the friendly relationship between ladies and gentlemen on weekdays is also established in this way.

"Hey? Guess what I saw when I walked around the garden just now?" A third-class little girl who cleaned her lowered her voice, looking mysterious, while biting a snack.

"What? Don't be secretive, tell me quickly, or I won't let you eat it." A second-class maid came over and said eagerly, and dragged away the snack box while talking.

"I saw it, a little girl didn't know how to be sneaky, and buried things in the second lady's yard. Do you think she has menstruation and is afraid that people will see it?" The third-class little girl hurried over while stuffing it into her mouth. drag box.

"I think it's probably true. Otherwise, no one has anything to bury. I think I was scared to death when I had menstruation, and I thought I was going to die because of illness." The second-class girl laughed and pulled the food box with the third-class girl.

"Hey? Maybe it's not, maybe it's something my cousin sent in? Did you see where it was buried? I'll dig it out when I go back at night." Liu Ruyi squatted a little, and interjected.

"When the time comes, tell us what was buried. I saw it was buried under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the yard." The third-class girl mumbled while eating her snacks.

"Okay, the old lady is about to wake up, I'll go in first, or I won't be here later." Liu Ruyi picked up the empty food box and hurried away.

"Then go quickly." The little girls laughed.

I have to go back and dig it out while the old lady is still awake. I don't know when the other party will attack. If I dig it out too late, I will be in trouble if I get framed.

Seeing Liu Ruyi rushing back, Xiangyi hurriedly followed.

"Miss, what's the matter?" Xiang Yi was not among the people chatting and eating snacks just now, so she didn't know what happened.Cao Ya'er was sent out by Liu Ruyi to do some errands, and she hasn't come back yet. There is no one in the yard at this time, so it is very dangerous.

"When you enter the yard, you will send everyone away, you know?" Liu Ruyi looked serious, she kept on her feet, and she was about to run.

When we arrived at Qianjing Courtyard, there wasn't a single maid in the courtyard, because the master wasn't there, so I didn't know where to hide.

Xiangyi went there to see the little maid, Liu Ruyi didn't care that she didn't have any tools in hand, so she hurried to check under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree.

The sweet-scented osmanthus tree is close to the courtyard wall, and there are traces of newly digging the soil where it is usually invisible. I took off the hairpin on the head and dug it quickly. The burial was not deep, and it was dug out after a few strokes. There is a puppet with a vague face, and the birth date is written on the body.

Before she had time to see who it was, Liu Ruyi hurriedly pricked her finger with a hairpin, tore off a piece of cloth from her inner garment, wrote her own date of birth on it, and buried the doll back.

Just after finishing these, before Liu Ruyi checked where there were still villains buried, Mrs. Zhao supported the old lady and brought a group of women in.

"Ruyi, why are you here?" The old lady was not happy or angry.

"Grandmother, if you noticed that you did some embroidery work before you woke up, accidentally poked your finger, and your dress was dirty, then you want to come back and wrap your fingers and change your dress." Liu Ruyi stretched out her hand, The blood on his hand had dried up, and it looked like a paste, as if there was a lot of blood left.

The clothes were also dripping with blood, and the lotus-colored dress was particularly conspicuous.

"En." Although the old lady only hummed, she felt that what Liu Ruyi said could be justified.

"Where exactly are you talking about?" The old lady turned to Mrs. Zhao.

"Search." Mrs. Zhao ordered briefly.

With vicious eyes, with cold malice, he looked at Liu Ruyi.

Next to her, Liu Mengxue also stared closely at Liu Ruyi with a smug smile.

Liu Ruyi didn't know it, but she was beating drums in her heart, worried that besides the place behind the tree, there were other places where this thing was hidden.

Because there was a large-scale incident of witchcraft in this dynasty, which eventually led to the death of the emperor's beloved concubine and beloved son. From then on, witchcraft is prohibited.

But in private, it has been repeatedly prohibited, because people at that time believed in witchcraft, especially in the countryside, they would not go to the doctor's office when they were sick, but went to the sorceress.

Mrs. Zhao's move is very big, so she is not afraid of spreading the news. The whole prime minister's mansion is ruined?
Several women started to move in the yard.

Liu Ruyi stared at it out of the corner of her eye, sure enough, Zhao's dowry nanny Zhao Nanny really came running towards the flower tree leaning against the wall.

After searching a few times decently, I found a Yasheng doll under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree.

It was the one that Liu Ruyi reburied just now.

"Ma'am, there is something dirty here. Look at the freshness of the blood, it must be maintained with great magic power, and this technique of disgusting victory must be powerful." Mother Zhao suppressed the excitement on her face, and shouted Then, the expression on his face was a little distorted and scary.

"What's it called? I'm afraid others won't hear it?" the old lady said angrily.

"Yes." Zhao mama lowered her head and showed the Yasheng doll to the old lady.

The literate maid beside the old lady hurriedly helped the old lady read: "Gengxu..."

"Which one in the house is from the year of Gengxu?" The old lady looked at the people standing beside her.

In a reincarnation of 60 years, people in the year of Gengxu are either older than the old lady, or they are still teenagers.

Zhao's face turned ugly, it was clearly not the arrangement!

On the way just now, I told the old lady that Liu Ren'an always had a headache recently, and he was always talking nonsense in the middle of the night.

"It's the granddaughter, grandmother, and the granddaughter's birthday is the winter month of the Gengxu year." Liu Ruyi replied slightly surprised.

After glaring at Mrs. Zhao fiercely, the old lady shouted, "Bring it to me to have a look."

Staring at the little man for a while, Liu Ruyi felt a little uneasy. Although the little man was rough, he still looked like a man. I wonder if the old lady would be suspicious of her, even though she looked like a victim too. .

At this time, the good foundation laid down usually comes into play.

The big maid next to the old lady took a look at Liu Ruyi, leaned forward and exclaimed: "Old lady, isn't this a vicious curse that has been spread in the market to make women grow longer and look like men? No wonder I looked at the second lady for the past two days Somewhat rough manner."

After the maid's words fell, Liu Ruyi's heart had already settled down.

Because she was learning the rules from the old lady in the past two days, the nanny who taught the rules always said that Liu Ruyi's behavior had the rough feeling of a man riding a horse to kill the enemy, not like a girl in a boudoir.

Although Liu Ruyi tried her best to pretend to be as weak and soft as an ordinary woman, she still couldn't hide her inner temperament.

Now, with this big maid's words, even the original old lady's resentment and contempt were covered up.

It's not that Liu Ruyi didn't pay attention to the rules and was completely different from ordinary boudoir girls, but that someone did something tricky, Liu Ruyi was tricked, and she was a victim.

"Who is so vicious, how did she do such a thing? This girl looks like a man, how will she marry in the future." Liu Jiaren's aunt, Aunt Jia, said quickly, looking at Mrs. Zhao as she spoke.

Just now when Mrs. Zhao went to find the old lady, she was also beside her. What Mrs. Zhao opened and shut was Liu Ren'an's strange behavior these days, and said that when Liu Ren'an woke up in the middle of the night, he pointed straight at the direction, and there was no one else. The yard, only Liu Ruyi's yard.

Seizing the opportunity at this moment, Aunt Jia hurriedly said: "No wonder I was wondering just now why the master didn't have these weird faces when he went to my yard. It turns out that the master is fine, I'm afraid the wife has misread it." As he spoke, he held a handkerchief and pretended to wipe away his tears.

"Wait until Brother An comes back to find out. Ruyi girl, you have suffered, take a rest first, and call you over in the evening." Because the old lady could foresee that she would take over the housekeeping power in Zhao's hands, she was very happy for a while. Liu Ruyi is also amiable.

"Thank you, grandma, for your concern." Liu Ruyi hurriedly swayed, and took Xiangyi back to the room to rest under the winking eyes of the maid beside the old lady.

As soon as the old lady and her party left, Liu Ruyi quickly asked Xiangyi to look around, and before the little girls got together and was messed up by the nanny brought by Zhao, they had to check carefully to see if there were any other things left. kind of villain.

She was too nervous just now, but now she suddenly feels fine, and feels a little dizzy. Liu Ruyi really feels a little tired.

Wait a minute, Xiangyi came back and reported that she had checked everywhere, even the soil in the yard was inspected inch by inch, Liu Ruyi finally felt relieved.

The old lady's case had already been finalized, and she probably wouldn't come to investigate again. After sailing carefully for ten thousand years, Liu Ruyi was completely relieved, lay down on the couch, and fell asleep immediately.

Xiangyi was afraid that Liu Ruyi would be cold, so she quickly took a blanket to cover Liu Ruyi, then went back to the yard, sat on the porch, staring at the two rows of little girls standing neatly in the yard without moving.

The lady told herself that it was the third-class maid in the old lady’s yard who saw someone burying a little person in the yard. Usually, if other maids came to the yard, they would report it and someone would stare at them so that they would not be buried. villain to go.

The maids in the yard are not innocent, either they are lazy and didn't notice other people coming outside.

Or, some of these little maids took advantage of it and framed the master, and no one buried it at this time.
