"Miss Xia, Your Majesty asked Miss Xia to go to the Lu Mansion. Mrs. Lu fainted for unknown reasons."
"My mother was not fine during the day. Why did she suddenly faint after a few hours?"
"I will inform Miss Xia of the specific details on the way. The situation is critical now. The doctor in the Lu family said that Mrs. Lu's life is in danger. There is no one in the Lu family to take charge of the overall situation. The prince ordered his subordinates to ask Miss Xia to come over quickly."
"Okay, Feng Muchi, I'll leave this to you. Hong Xiu, let's go."
Even if she is disappointed with Dong Lingjiu, Xia Tan'er will still believe in him subconsciously. Even Xia Tan'er herself was unaware of this inexplicable trust.
"yes."
Xia Tan'er just turned around, but someone grabbed her clothes. She turned her head and looked at Feng Muchi with confusion.
"What's wrong?"
"I'm not worried if you go alone. I'll go with you."
Multiple people can open their mouths. If someone from the Lu family makes things difficult for Xia Tan'er, he can help scold her.
"But here?"
"Leave it to them. Without further ado, let's leave."
"good."
The four of them flew away together.
In the Lu Mansion, Lu Yimo's house was completely silent. Dong Lingjiu and Laifu stared at the Valley Master's actions without blinking. Seeing the Valley Master's frown getting tighter, the two of them couldn't help but feel nervous.
It wasn't until the Valley Master's hand pulled away from Lu Yimo's wrist that Laifu hurriedly asked.
"Valley Master, my young lady..."
The Valley Master did not answer directly, he took his pulse and pillowed his head and thought solemnly.
"Where is the letter you mentioned?"
"The letter...the letter is here."
The housekeeper hurriedly took out the previous letter from his arms and handed it over.
The Valley Master took the letter all the way to the desk and opened it carefully under the candlelight on the table.
All the poison previously contained on the envelope had disappeared into the air, and now there was no trace left on the envelope. No matter how much the Valley Master checked, he couldn't find any traces.
"How's it going? Any clues?"
The Valley Master shook his head and handed the envelope to Dong Lingjiu. "
Dong Lingjiu took the letter and took a look.
"This is Tan'er's handwriting."
Looking at the content of the letter again, everything between the lines is what Xia Tan'er wrote to Lu Yimo.
Dong Lingjiu frowned. If this letter is made public, Xia Tan'er will definitely arouse suspicion and think that she poisoned Lu Yimo.
While thinking about what to do with this letter. Xia Tan'er and four others hurried over.
Dong Lingjiu raised his eyes and glanced at Xia Tan'er. He quietly stuffed the letter into his arms and lowered his voice to tell Laifu and the Valley Master.
"Before the matter just now is investigated, I don't want to hear anyone doubt Tan'er."
"yes."
Laifu knew that Xia Tan'er would not poison Lu Yimo. Someone else must have deliberately framed him to bring about civil strife in the Lu family. For the sake of the stability of the Lu family, Laifu had no choice but to agree.
Seeing Laifu nodding, Dong Lingjiu raised his head.
"Tan'er, here."
Xia Tan'er followed the sound and saw a flash of hesitation in her heart that she didn't want to step forward when she saw Dong Ling Jiushi. But Lu Yimo's life was at stake, so she had to put down the fight temporarily.
"Uncle Nine Emperors, how is my mother? Why did she suddenly faint?"
"Poisoned."
"Poisoned? Who poisoned it? What kind of poison is it? Can it be cured?"
"We haven't found out yet. I have ordered Xia Lingfu to interrogate that boy. The results should be available soon. As for what kind of poison it is..."
Dong Lingjiu turned to look at the Valley Master. Xia Tan'er hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
"Valley Master?"
The Valley Master shook his head.
"No powder was found. I can't tell what kind of poison it is just by checking the pulse."
"Powder?"
"As long as we find out what the medicinal powder is, the Valley Master can prepare the antidote."
"It stands to reason."
Xia Tan'er looked at Laifu. It's normal to not recognize the people in the house when you first arrive, but you can't stand Xia Tan'er's reasoning skills. After just a moment's thought, he knew that this person was the housekeeper of the Lu family.
"Can I please tell this uncle, how did my mother get poisoned?"
"Young miss, you are serious. I am just a housekeeper in the house and I dare not let you call me uncle. You can just call me Laifu."
The other party said so, and Xia Tan'er didn't bother to refuse.
"Laifu, tell me word for word how my mother was poisoned."
I just heard Shaoqing give a brief talk on the road. She couldn't guarantee how good Xia Lingzheng was in investigating the case. If she wanted to find out the truth, she would be more confident if she made the decision herself.
Laifu glanced at Donglingjiu after hearing this. Dong Lingjiu looked at Shaoqing again.
"No one is allowed to approach this room without my order. Others are ordered to leave."
"Yes, Master."
When the doors and windows of the room were all closed, Hongxiu and Shaoqing stood guard outside the door to make sure there were no ears through the wall. Dong Lingjiu took out the previous letter from his arms and handed it to Xia Tan'er's hand.
"Tan'er, look at this letter. Is this letter written by you to Mrs. Lu?"
Xia Tan'er glanced at Dong Lingjiu suspiciously, then opened the envelope and took a look. He immediately understood what Dongling Jiucai's actions meant.
"Although this font looks very similar to what I wrote, it is indeed not written by me."
Dong Lingjiu nodded, he must have believed in Xia Tan'er, but in case people in the Lu family didn't believe it, and in order for Xia Tan'er to be able to take power in the future, he could only use this method to clear Xia Tan'er's suspicion first.
"Laifu, tell Tan'er exactly what happened today."
"yes."
In order for Xia Tan'er to have a clearer understanding of the causes and consequences, Laifu even acted, playing himself, Lu Yimo, and then the servant who delivered the letter. Finally, as "Lu Yimo" fell, Xia Tan'er had a clear understanding of what happened.
"So, the medicinal powder that the Valley Master mentioned just now is most likely in this envelope?"
"That's right, but I've checked everything just now and haven't found anything yet. Girl Tan, is there anything you can do?"
"Yes, but the letter may be destroyed."
Xia Tan'er herself didn't mind, but the question was whether the Lu family's housekeeper would think she was destroying evidence. She gave Laifu a meaningful look. But he saw Laifu nodding his head without any hesitation.
"As long as I can save the young lady, I will try any method. What's more, since someone is setting the blame on the young lady, this letter cannot be preserved in the world."
"Okay, Laifu, go and prepare a room for me and don't allow anyone to come in."
"Tan'er, I'm guarding the door for you, I don't worry about others."
Feng Muchi pulled Xia Tan'er's clothes and solemnly petitioned Xia Tan'er.
Xia Tan'er nodded. The two people looked at each other so innocently, but Dong Lingjiu was extremely unhappy. He is such a busy person, why would he come to Lu Mansion to take charge of the overall situation for Xia Tan'er in the middle of the night?
Xia Tan'er never looked at him since she entered the door, and she didn't even say thank you to him. Now that she was still looking at Feng Muchi in front of him, did Xia Tan'er really not take him seriously?
