Faced with everyone's eyes focused on her, Wanfeng inevitably shrank, and then began to stumble about her experience:
"Today, the maid next to the old lady did bring a piece of 'Wu Bing Fish Soup', but for some reason, after taking a look at it, the master suddenly asked me to take it away, and at the same time asked I'll ask the kitchen to make another one."
"Then, the maid next to the second young lady asked a slave to take the fish soup away."
"after……"
As soon as Wanfeng said this, Jiang Xianyu on the side immediately interrupted in surprise: "Wait... Wanfeng, what did you just say? The maid next to me asked you to take the fish soup away? "
"Yes, Miss Second, that's exactly what it is!" Wanfeng nodded without hesitation.
After getting Wanfeng's clear answer, Jiang Xianyu's mind suddenly buzzed and exploded!
Wait...what's going on?
Why are there more and more unknown things?
The maid next to him took away the fish soup containing "Tongxincao"?
The fish soup that my father was later poisoned... wasn't actually made by her?
Why doesn't anyone talk to me about such an important thing?
If I knew about this, why would I still make those superfluous arrangements?
Isn’t that just letting dirty water pour on yourself?
Obviously the whole thing should have nothing to do with her, the second young lady. She can obviously sit on the Diaoyutai and watch the clouds roll and relax in the sky!
But what about now?
She actually fell into this quagmire on her own initiative...
So... I actually took the blame for the real murderer?
When Jiang Xianyu thought about this clearly, he felt depressed!
I think she, Jiang Xianyu, was smart all her life, but she ended up being confused on this matter - if she could have waited a little longer and found out what was going on, maybe things like this wouldn't have happened now!
In addition, there is the maid next to you... What is your situation?
Why do you want to take away that fish soup containing concentric grass?
However, now is not the time to worry about the real culprit. The most important thing now is to throw the blame away.
Therefore, you have to ask the maid next to you, why did she take away the fish soup without my order?
Also, since you took them away, why didn't you say anything to your master?
Immediately, Jiang Xianyu cast his eyes full of suspicion...and a hint of hidden ferocity in the depths of his eyes on the little maid beside him: "Tell me, what is going on? Why did you show up at that time? Here? And...why didn't you tell me after you took away the fish soup?"
"I showed up here because I came to play with Qingtian! As for why I took away the fish soup, it's because..."
Before the little maid beside Jiang Xianyu could finish her answer, she was interrupted by Jiang Xianyu's words: "Wait... what did you say? Sunny day? Who is that?"
"Qingtian is the maid who was transferred to me a few days ago." On the side, Jiang Xianyu's mother, Aunt Zhou, answered quickly.
"Qingtian...why are you suddenly transferred to your side?" Jiang Xianyu looked at her mother with some suspicion. She always felt that the direction of things was becoming less and less under her control!
Therefore, she wanted to try her best to bring things back. If she couldn't, she would have to use the last resort.
"It was a few days ago. I saw a little maid hiding in the bamboo forest in the south corner of the backyard crying. I went to ask her about her situation. She said she was a girl from the Lai family and had just been sent to the backyard to be a roughneck. Because the maid was not getting along with her sisters in the same dormitory, she hid here and secretly cried. I felt sorry for this girl, so I felt compassion for her, and then asked her to come to my side." Aunt Zhou said to Jiang Xianyu explained.
After hearing Aunt Zhou's explanation, Jiang Xianyu turned his attention to his maid again: "Then tell me why you know the little maid who just came to Aunt Zhou."
"Because I am also a maid of the Lai family!" The little maid next to Jiang Xianyu replied weakly.
"If I remember correctly, I seem to remember that your surname is not Lai, right?" Jiang Xianyu looked at her little maid very suspiciously.
At the same time, Jiang Xianyu couldn't help but think to herself - she originally thought that this little maid was very weak and easy to control, but now it seems... could it be that she was mistaken at the beginning? This little maid is not weak, but came to him deliberately disguised like this? Its purpose...is for this attack today?
Just when Jiang Xianyu was suspicious, Jiang Xianyu suddenly heard the voice of the little maid next to her reply: "Although my surname is not Lai, I am a son of the Lai family!"
After hearing this little maid's answer, Jiang Xianyu suddenly realized: He was really stupid, he actually forgot about this!
You must know that the Jiang family where you belong is the most powerful family in the entire Sun and Moon Kingdom. Even the royal family may not be stronger than the Jiang family to a certain extent.
And such a powerful Jiang family has many dependents, the most famous of which is the Lai family.
The Lai family was originally just a family that was about to fall out of the aristocratic level and become a poor family.
Then, the current head of the family, who was quite lucky in gambling, placed his bet on the current Lord Protector.
As the saying goes, "When one person attains the Dao, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven." And this Lai family is the "chicken and dog" who followed the Lord Protector's Mansion and attained the Dao and ascended to heaven!
With the help of the power of the Protector's Palace, the Lai family has become more and more prosperous in recent years. Even the top old aristocratic families may not be as good as the Lai family with the support of the Protector's Palace and the Jiang family. Home.
Because of this, the Lai family was completely shaken.
After the Lai family started to tremble, other dissatisfied families naturally began to imitate the Lai family and join the Protectorate.
However, the Protector's Mansion is not the same as the time when the Lai family came to serve. It is really difficult for ordinary families to rely on it, just because the current Protector's Mansion and the Jiang family are really not that rare. Ordinary family.
Therefore, these families could not get closer to the Duke Protector's Mansion and the Jiang family, so they had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and defect to the Lai family.
In fact, some families whose ancestors were glorious but now in decline and still have a relatively thick skin have sent some of their children to the Lai family through arrogance.
As for the Lai family, they will select the most outstanding sons and daughters who have passed all inspections and have no problems, and will be sent to serve in the Duke Protector's Mansion in the name of the Lai family's "sons born in the family". All the masters in the Duke Protector's Mansion.
And the little maid next to Jiang Xianyu has such a "family-born son" status.
The reason why Jiang Xianyu believed that the little maid who came to her was brought to the Lord Protector's Mansion by other families after being sent to the Jinlai family in the name of "family-born son", instead of being raised by the Lai family for countless years. The bottom line is that if the Lai family hadn't joined the Jiang family, they would have been expelled from the family. How could such a family have the capital to raise a "family son"?
Therefore, nowadays, the slaves presented to the Duke Protector's Mansion in the name of "family-born children" are actually children of other families who have passed various tests.
From this point of view, it is not difficult to understand that the maid next to Jiang Xianyu knows the girl from the Lai family!
But... that's true, but no matter what, Jiang Xianyu felt that this incident was too much of a coincidence.
However, now she has no evidence and can't say much.
Therefore, Jiang Xianyu could only temporarily divert his attention from this aspect, and then followed Wanfeng's previous words and continued to ask the little maid beside him: "Then since you are going to talk to Qingtian, an acquaintance, why do you want to talk to Qingtian?" Are you taking this fish soup away? Logically speaking, you shouldn’t have anything to do with it, right?"
There was no need for the little maid to answer Jiang Xianyu's questions. Aunt Zhou had already given Jiang Xianyu the answer first: "I know about this! At that time, I asked the little maid next to you to take care of it."
"You asked this little maid next to me to carry it? Why?" Jiang Xianyu suddenly looked at his mother with doubt on his face.
"Although I don't know why your father didn't drink this fish soup at that time, but since he didn't drink it, this fish soup can't be wasted, right? This is 'Wu Bing Fish Soup', it is very helpful for improving your cultivation. Yes, since your father doesn't drink, I thought it would be good to give you a drink to increase your cultivation, right?" Jiang Xianyu's mother, Aunt Zhou, looked at her daughter with a gentle face and said Such words came.
After hearing Aunt Zhou's words, Jiang Xianyu was silent for a moment, and then turned his gaze to the little maid next to him again: "Since Aunt Zhou said that you should bring the fish soup back to me, then Why didn’t I drink this fish soup?”
At this time, Jiang Xianyu was feeling very irritable, feeling that the little girl she had just chosen was simply failing more than succeeding.
If she had returned the fish soup to herself in time, she would have known that the fish soup she made was not actually drunk by her father. Naturally, her father's poisoning today had nothing to do with her. It has nothing to do with it, and if the matter has nothing to do with her, Jiang Xianyu, then why is she still making so many arrangements in a hurry?
You have simply tricked yourself!
Now, with the tricks she, Jiang Xianyu, had done before, even though she, Jiang Xianyu, knew that the "Wu Bing Fish Soup" her father drank when he was poisoned had nothing to do with her own, but... others But he didn’t know this!
When Jiang Xianyu thought about this, her heart was filled with irritability.
At the same time, Jiang Xianyu secretly felt cruel in her heart. If she could survive this disaster, she would definitely make this little girl look good after she returned.
On the other side, the little girl who heard Jiang Xianyu's question, faced Jiang Xianyu's question about why he couldn't drink the fish soup, the little girl suddenly looked very aggrieved and replied: "Second Miss, I have to ask Zhou My aunt's instructions were for me to bring the fish soup back to you, but before I could even run back to the yard where the second lady was, I was captured..."
"Caught back...what's going on?" Jiang Xianyu glanced at the little girl next to him with some confusion, and then cast his probing eyes on his mother.
Sure enough, Jiang Xianyu heard her mother's answer: "I was the one who asked people to capture this little girl!"
After a slight pause, Jiang Xianyu's mother, Aunt Zhou, said helplessly: "Not long after I asked this little girl to give you fish soup, I saw your father being poisoned. In panic, I also I didn’t know what to do, so I asked someone to bring back the little girl who had just left my yard, and along the way, someone sent a message to you...and of course, the eldest lady!"
"Then why didn't anyone send news to me, an old woman?" On the side, Mrs. Jiang suddenly spoke, questioningly, "If Jiang Xianyu hadn't come to invite me, I wouldn't have known about this matter!"
"I was thinking that the old lady was old and was afraid that she wouldn't be able to bear the excitement, so I didn't notify you first!" Aunt Zhou explained in a low voice.
"When such a big thing happens, what is the question of whether I can be stimulated? No matter how great the stimulation is, I can only come!" Mrs. Jiang said angrily to Aunt Zhou.
"Yes! Yes! Yes! It's all my fault. I hope the old lady can forgive me." Aunt Zhou immediately leaned over and apologized.
Seeing Aunt Zhou with such a low posture, Mrs. Jiang's breath suddenly caught in her throat.
At this point, Mrs. Jiang, who couldn't say much, could only express her dissatisfaction with an angry "hum".
Jiang Xianyu didn't care at all about the interaction between her mother and Mrs. Jiang. At this time, she was quickly analyzing the answers of the little girl next to her in her mind, hoping to find out the problem. .
And obviously, in this little girl's answer, she has a big problem.
"According to what I just said, after my father stopped drinking this 'Wu Bing Fish Soup', he asked the kitchen to make a new one. After my father stopped drinking this 'Wu Bing Fish Soup', Aunt Zhou asked her to make a new one." You little girl brought it to me. As a result, the 'Wu Bing Fish Soup' at my father's side has been made again, but you haven't brought it to me yet? The distance between my yard and Aunt Zhou's yard is Is it so long?" Jiang Xianyu asked the little girl next to her with a questioning look on her face.
Unexpectedly, when faced with Jiang Xianyu's questioning, this little girl was also full of confusion. She even asked Jiang Xianyu with a blank expression: "Yes! Why is this?" "
"Why do you think this is?" Jiang Xianyu stared at the silly girl next to her with an unhappy face. Somehow, she felt that this girl was really stupid. There should be no problem, but the problem now is... ...If she has no problem, then why hasn’t this fish soup been delivered to her after so long?
