Chapter 47 Who will die

Dead? How could it die so well? Fortunately, it happened to be when the prince wanted to summon the maid.

"What the hell is going on?" King Ning frowned. It has not happened such a big thing in Ning's mansion for a long time.

"I don't know," the young man knelt on the ground and said, "When the little man pushed the door in, I saw the maid hanging on the hemp rope, and her tongue and eyes protrude. I guess it would have been broken for several hours."

At this time, Dr. Zhao, who had been checking the medicine jar, also said, "That's right. The inner tank of this medicine jar has been soaked in the juice of Ma Qianzi. If you use this medicine jar to decoct medicine every day, the horse money that penetrates into the inner wall of the medicine jar will also be integrated into the medicine. Coupled with the horse money in the medicinal materials, the old lady will have no accident. It's weird."

"Who on earth is so bold that he dares to harm his mother and concubine?" King Ning was so angry that he stood up and looked around. Everyone lowered their heads unnaturally, but Qin Yunuan and Princess Ning successively opened their advice.

"Father, don't worry. Fortunately, the old lady is safe and sound. Since the black hand behind the scenes dares to do it, it will inevitably leave traces."

"Yes," Princess Ning stretched out her hand and gently patted King Ning on the back. "People are watching." After saying that, Princess Ning turned her head and ordered, "Since the maid who took care of the medicine in the old lady's yard was destroyed, I don't believe that I couldn't find a clue to find all the maids in the lotus courtyard."

Ning Wang thought for a moment and also nodded.

After a while, the yard was full of servants, and even the porters who were usually guarding at the gate of the yard were pulled over. They lowered their heads one by one, and they were submissive and dared not come out.

"All of you who have been in the small kitchen or have been responsible for the purchase, distribution and storage of materials, stand up for me." Under the order of King Ning, more than a dozen people came out of the group of people. The leader was a slightly older Mama, who looked a little familiar. She should be regarded as a steward in the Hexiang Courtyard, surnamed Sun, and she had been following the old lady for many years.

"Mama Sun," Princess Ning saw the old lady at a glance. "You are in charge of the small warehouse of Hexiangyuan. Let me ask you, has the medicine jar that the old lady has been using been replaced?"

Mother Sun was already nervous about being named alone. This time, she asked the key point again. She knelt down and kowtowed: "The maidservant is guilty. It's my fault. The maidservant dozed off in the warehouse a while ago and broke the old lady's medicine jar. The old lady fell in love with the old, and the maidservant thought that if she was sent Now it will definitely be blamed, so... I took an identical medicine jar and pushed it up in private.

"How dare a bold maidservant to cover up in private?" The second lady put in justice in time, "Do you know that the medicine jar you changed almost killed the old lady?"

Mother Sun shook her body: "I dare not. I just heard that there was a medicine jar exactly like the old lady in the small warehouse of the third young lady, so I found a good fellow villager, that is, the steward Li's wife in the warehouse of the third young lady, borrowed it. The rest of the slaves and maids didn't know anything about it. I really didn't do it. ."

Everyone's eyes were projected on Qin Yunuan again. Qin Yunuan immediately bent down and explained, "Yu Nuan neglected. I didn't know that the people under him had such a serious mistake. Man'er, go and bring Mother Li to face to face."

After a while, Mother Li was also brought to her. She looked nervous and almost fell when she walked, looking a little absent-minded.

"Kneeling down." Qingzhu beside Princess Ning shouted at Mother Li. Mother Li was even more afraid. Seeing Mother Sun still kneeling beside her, she immediately understood what was going on. After listening to Ning Wang's cold question, she was stunned for a long time, but suddenly shouted bitterly.

"The maidservant... The maidservant is also forced. The maidservant said, and the maidservant said everything."

"What are you doing crying?" Qin Yunuan had an ominous foreboding, "If you have something to say, just say it."

The second lady also smiled: "Yes, Mother Li, if anyone forces you to do something you shouldn't do, even if you say it, the prince and princess are here. As long as you are telling the truth, no one can embarrass you." After the second lady finished speaking, Yu Guang looked at Qin Yunuan.

M Mother Li kowtowed and said, "The former descendants asked the maidservant to borrow the medicine jar. The maidservant thought that although she was a warehouse stewmer, she could not borrow anything at will without the master's idea. She went to ask the third young lady for instructions. She thought it was a small matter, but the third young lady asked the maidservant to show her the medicine jar she was going to lend. The next day, I gave it to the maidservant and agreed to lend it to the Hexiangyuan. By the way, in addition, the third young lady also asked a lot about the old lady's symptoms and medicine. At that time, the maidservant still felt strange. Why didn't the third young lady go directly to visit the Hexiangyuan, but asked the maidservant to ask in private.

"Humph, full of nonsense," Qin Yunuan snorted coldly, "When did I come to see you the medicine jar? When did you ask about the old lady's illness? I come to Hexiangyuan every day to greet her. How about the old lady? Do I still need to ask you, a servant maidservant like you?

Now the situation is obvious. Looking at Mother Li's confession, it is obvious that someone has bribed Mother Li to frame her. Qin Yunuan took a deep breath and nodded to King Ning and Princess Ning: "Yu Nuan has never done what this slave said, and Mother Li is in charge of the outer court and has never entered the inner court. This My father and mother can ask all the maids in my inner courtyard.

After saying that, Man'er and Tingxue immediately knelt down and said in unison, "I can testify for the third young lady."

Mother Li held her head and said, "Liao's mother, Miss Man'er and Miss Ting Xue in the inner courtyard are all the mother's family of the Third Young Master's grandmother. In the inner courtyard, only those maids who are loyal to the Third Young Master can work in it. Naturally, they will speak for the Third Young Master's grandmother, but every word of the slave is true. If there is half a sentence that slanders the Third Young Master Damn, the sky is thundering. Mother Li's attitude is resolute and her tone is sincere, and no matter how she hears it, it looks real.

For a while, the hall sneered and sarcasm one after another. The second wife has always hated that Dongfu took back the three shops in the east of the city that originally belonged to their second room. After knowing that it was taken care of by Qin Yunuan, she was even more unhappy, and this time she was even more vigorously falling into the well.

Only the cold and cold heart that had been looking at Mother Li on the ground, and her tone was sarcastic: "Don't I think you were still very nervous just now? Why are you so confident in speaking now? You are obviously the maid in the third sister-in-law's yard, but the crime of the third sister-in-law is unequivocal. It's not easy for me to treat you like this. After saying that, Leng Suxin took a sip of tea quietly, as if she hadn't said anything.

Qin Yunuan was afraid that the cold heart that had threatened her at the critical time would say a fair word for herself, while Mother Li's body trembled: "That's because I really can't pass the level of conscience," Mother Li said as she stretched out her hand and stroked her chest. "Since the maidservant said it, I'm not afraid of anything."

At that time, a cold voice suddenly sounded: "Then take out your conscience and have a look, Leng Wu!"

With Leng Changxi's cold voice, Leng Wu suddenly rushed in from outside the house and almost grabbed Mother Li's wrist tightly in a breath. Just as he was about to exert his strength, he was suddenly stopped by Leng Changxi.

"Enough, look at what's in her nails?" Leng Changxi pointed to Mother Li's dark nails. The black debris there looked like dirty things left during work, but he took a closer look.

"Your Majesty, it's Ma Qianzi." Dr. Zhao picked out a little black powder, smelled it, and said, "And it's the most medicinal part."

Qin Yunuan came forward and pulled Mother Li's fingers away. Seeing that Mama Li's ten nails were full of horse money powder, she smiled and said, "Aren't you in charge of the warehouse? What? Is there so much money in the warehouse?

At this time, someone from Qin Yunuan's yard also came, holding a tightly wrapped thing in his hand. As soon as he opened it, it was also a pile of clay fragments.

"When Liao's mother was dispensing the medicine, she accidentally broke the medicine jar. As a result, she found something strange in the medicine jar. Liao's mother was worried and asked her maidservant to send it over." The little maid's voice is clear, not stage fright.

Qin Yunuan carefully opened the cloth bag and found that the inner wall of the fragments of the medicine jar inside was stained with some inexplicable black powder. Dr. Zhao looked at it and immediately said, "It's also Ma Qianzi."

M Mother Li's heart was cold at that time.

Leng Changxi glanced at Mother Li: "Do you have anything else to say?"

"At the same time, I want to harm the old lady and me," Qin Yunuan's eyes were harsh. "Mama Li, you are so bold." Qin Yunuan was not only glad that her pregnancy was fake, so she didn't really drink the tonic for a while. If not, she might be the same as today's old lady.

"No, that's not the case," Mother Li shook her head with dull eyes. "The medicine jar for the old lady is an accident. I didn't think that the mother-in-law Sun would borrow the medicine jar from me. I really didn't think that the maidservant was wrong, and the maidservant was really wrong."

So, the purpose behind this behind-the-scenes black hand is still to harm Qin Yunuan alone? Qin Yu's heart was warm, but it was also thought that the old lady had a high position in the royal palace, and ordinary people were eager to be abusing. What's the benefits of killing the old lady in the royal palace?

"Bear this cheap maidservant down to me, and I will torture her severely." Ning Wang waved his sleeves, and the two thick little men came forward and dragged Mother Li, who was still shouting.

At this time, the big maid in the old lady's room came and said that the old lady woke up and said that she wanted to see the third young lady.
