After the Queen learned that Mrs. Xu was poisoned, she immediately told Dr. Zhang to shut up. Then she learned from Dr. Zhang that Xu Qingmo had sealed off the entire Ningyuan Hou Mansion, and no wind could escape.
The Queen breathed a sigh of relief first, and then sighed: "Xu Qingmo is young, but he is quite thoughtful! In this case, I will first see if she can find out the person who poisoned her. !”
The gate of Ningyuan Hou Mansion was closed, so naturally some people began to inquire. The people in the courtyard next door were the most concerned, but no one could be seen.
And Xu Qingmo specially sent Qu Lian to keep an eye on them. Sure enough, on the night of the third day, Xu Qingling quietly went out. In order to hide from others, she didn't even sit in the carriage. She changed into a maid's dress and walked to Ruyun Pavilion.
After Xu Qingmo learned the news, he did not let Qu Lian continue to follow. Instead, he changed his clothes and followed him out.
Xu Qingmo found Xu Qingling in the wing on the second floor of Ruyun Pavilion. She was wearing the clothes of a maid and looked like she was looking for someone. Then she was ushered into the wing on the second floor by Mr. Gu.
Xu Qingmo hid on the roof of the wing, lifted up a broken tile, and looked inside carefully.
Sure enough, Xu Qingmo saw Lin Shaoyang sitting on the sofa at a glance. Xu Qingling was leaning on him. Xu Qingling's clothes were torn apart, revealing her lotus-pink bellyband.
Lin Shaoyang played with Xu Qingling's long hair: "...Why are you panicking? It's just a house closing, not a funeral. There's nothing to be afraid of!"
"What do you know? The door of Ningyuan Hou's Mansion has never been closed like this!" Xu Qingling was a little embarrassed, "What on earth did you give me? It won't really kill anyone!"
"Of course not, it's just some datura flowers that can make people hallucinate, and then stumble and lose their mind. How could someone be killed?" Lin Shaoyang laughed and said, "Look, I'm scaring you!"
Xu Qingling lightly hit Lin Shaoyang's chest: "What do you know, my eldest sister is very powerful. If she knows anything, she will definitely not let it go!"
Mentioning Xu Qingmo, an evil light flashed in Lin Shaoyang's eyes: "The eldest girl from Ningyuan Houfu is a bit powerful, but she is just a three-legged cat. She is not as smart as you!"
"Are you trying to coax me? I know that she danced in the palace and many people praised her!" Xu Qingling felt a little annoyed when she thought of this.
"Of course it's not as good as your dance!" Lin Shaoyang coaxed, "In a few days, I will ask the Taoist priest to come to the door. Now there are no elders in Ningyuan Houfu, and your mother is the only elder. She should know how to do it. do it!"
Xu Qingling smiled sweetly: "That's natural, you can take care of yourself and don't worry!"
Lin Shaoyang lowered his head, looked at Xu Qingling's pink belly, and pinched it gently: "I haven't seen you for a few days. You seem to have grown up a little?"
"oops……"
Xu Qingmo turned over and left Ruyun Pavilion.
A few days ago, when she was rummaging through Mrs. Xu's yard, she found a purse under the bed. There was only a faint dust on the purse, so it must have been left behind by someone recently. And under the bed, it was indeed Man Man's purse. Dola flower.
Except for Hua Ying and Qu Lian, who found the wallet at that time, Xu Qingmo never let any third person know about the fact that the wallet was found.
After returning home, Xu Qingmo didn't say anything, but in the early morning of the next day, he ordered someone to open the door of Ningyuan Hou Mansion.
Although the door of Ningyuan Hou Mansion was open, there were still no visitors.
The two people in the next courtyard couldn't keep their temper, so they sent someone to ask questions that afternoon. Xu Qingmo, the man in the house, had told her not to say anything about the eldest lady.
Mrs. Wen walked around, but in the end there was no news, and she didn't even see Mrs. Xu's face. She walked in vain and returned to the house empty-handed.
That night, Xu Qingling's girl came over and touched a maid who was sweeping the yard in Xu Yanquan's yard.
Qu Lian led his men to guard the entire Ningyuan Hou Mansion. After the maid came in, Qu Lian could clearly hear every step and every word she said.
"That girl just came to ask how the lady is doing!" Qu Lian looked at Xu Qingmo and said softly.
Xu Qingmo leaned on the soft couch, holding a history book in his hand and looking at it: "How did that little girl know how the eldest lady was doing? In order to reward the silver, she only said that the eldest lady was seriously ill. Not long after, the second girl's maid left! "
"That's it?" Hua Ying on the side said a little strangely, "They didn't talk about the purse?"
Xu Qingmo didn't even raise his eyes: "The person who can enter my mother's wing cannot be such a little maid cleaning the outer courtyard. Maybe they don't know about the purse!"
"Then who put that purse?" Qu Lian was a little anxious, "You can't just show up in the yard by yourself!"
"That purse was given to me by Lin Shaoyang. She may not have given it to anyone else. It's very possible that she secretly put it in on the day of the wedding ceremony!" Xu Qingmo said softly.
Qu Lian frowned slightly: "Now they think the eldest lady is seriously ill, and they don't know what will happen next?"
"The people in the next courtyard are impatient. They will probably come to cause trouble tomorrow!" Xu Qingmo raised his eyes and looked at Qu Lian standing in front of him.
"Girl, what are we going to do next?" Hua Ying was a little flustered, "If Mrs. Wen considers herself an elder, we can't say anything..."
"Then let her say it!" Xu Qingmo sneered, "The people in the next courtyard are not that smart. If Lin Shaoyang hadn't been scheming behind the scenes, they wouldn't have been able to figure out a way to kill my mother!"
"That girl, we..."
"Stay unchanged and cope with all changes!" Xu Qingmo smiled, "No matter how much she is an elder, she is still a side branch. It is not her turn to make the final decision on the affairs of the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion. Besides, no matter what happens, the empress in the palace will I’m also keeping an eye on it, at least now the Ningyuan Hou Mansion has plenty of backers!”
Hua Ying understood immediately: "Young lady, you are saying that the Queen is looking after the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion when it comes to our house?"
Xu Qingmo smiled: "More than the Queen, my father and brother are suppressing bandits in Luoyang. If something happens to the family members of Ningyuan Houfu in the capital, can my father and brother still fight bravely in Luoyang to kill the enemy?"
Hua Ying and Qu Lian were both smart people and understood immediately, but then Hua Ying felt a little strange: "Every girl knows something, but doesn't Lin Shaoyang know it?"
"That's just a idiot!" Xu Qingmo shook his head, "Only that idiot Xu Qingling would think that this kind of beast in clothes is a good thing!"
Neither Hua Ying nor Qu Lian said anything.
