Luqing gave the box of ointment to Dr. Jiang for examination. There was nothing abnormal. It was indeed effective in fading scars.
Mandong was a little disappointed: "Then our work was in vain?"
After searching and searching, there was no evidence that could really point to the crime. The only thing that could be used as a flaw was Grandma Wang's reaction.
But this alone is not convincing at all. Even if they knew what Grandma Wang or even Ning Huayue had done, without real and effective evidence, it would not help at all.
Ji Qin was still calm, and she said: "When the incident happened, our Jinqiyuan couldn't allocate extra energy, which is why the matter was delayed for so long. There are very few things found now, but it's not We need to be discouraged, Danhong is always paying attention to Grandma Wang’s actions, let’s be more patient.”
Lu Qing clicked on the armrest of the chair. She agreed with Ji Qin's words: "Yes, Grandma Wang panicked, which proves that she is indeed involved in this matter. Even if we can't produce evidence, we can make her fearful and suffer, right?"
Grandma Wang, who was of extraordinary age and experience, was actually panicked. She couldn't convince herself even if she doubted her.
In fact, Grandma Wang's fear did not only come from Lu Qing's recent temptation. She went to see Qiao Siyu and mentioned Lu Qing, but she did not let Qiao Siyu directly go to Lu Qing to claim her life.
So later when she learned that Brother Jiu and Lu Qing had fallen into the water, Yan Fuguang was furious and ordered people to kill Qiao Siyu with a stick, and then killed several guards one after another. Her heart almost jumped out of her throat. .
After such an uneasy period of time, no one mentioned her, and she felt a little more at ease.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Lu Qing came back to find someone to settle the score. Because she appeared in Qinfang Courtyard at that time, she bore the brunt of suspicion.
Grandma Wang hesitated whether to tell Ning Huayue about this.
She walked into Yihongyuan holding the account book that Lu Qing gave her, and Danhong came to greet her: "Mammy, where have you been? The princess is sick again, and the slaves are looking for you everywhere..."
"Concubine Wei asked me to go to Jinxiyuan to get the account book." She explained quickly and hurried into Ning Huayue's bedroom.
Ning Huayue was ill, so Grandma Wang didn't find a suitable opportunity to tell her what happened.
Although the poison Xu Miaoyan gave to Ning Huayue did not kill her, it would make her inseparable from various medicines for the rest of her life.
The sick person was in a bad mood, and the medicine he was given was too bitter, and the smell of it made him sick.
Ning Huayue turned her face away in annoyance and blocked it with her arm.
"Snapped--"
The medicine bowl fell to the ground, and the dark medicinal soup spread all over the floor.
Ning Huayue was so angry that the maidservants knelt on the floor in front of the bed.
"I can't get better, can I?! I can't get better even if I drink medicine or eat medicine like food!"
"Miss, your health is important, don't be too angry..."
Ning Huayue lay down panting, her eyes filled with great hatred.
"Let that bitch kneel in the yard, and when I am ready, she will get up again!"
Grandma Wang knew that she wanted to vent her anger, so she completely obeyed her.
The extremely skinny Xu Miaoyan was kneeling in the middle of the yard with her head lowered, her hands clasped in front of her were covered with frostbite, and she looked scary.
She knelt until night, shaking uncontrollably, her face turned pale, and there was a thick layer of snow on her body.
Grandma Wang helped Ning Huayue go to bed. When she came out and saw Xu Miaoyan almost freezing to death, she spat unluckily: "Don't die in the yard and let the master get bad luck! Get up quickly!"
Xu Miaoyan couldn't stand up anymore, her legs were stiff and numb, and she couldn't move.
Grandma Wang called Danhong: "Send her back to the house!"
Dan Hong supported Xu Miaoyan, half dragging and half hugging him back to the simple servant's room.
Xu Miaoyan was the lowest servant. She slept in Datongbu. Her clothes and quilt were so thin that she was still shivering even though she was wrapped in the quilt.
Danhong gritted her teeth and left. After struggling for a moment, she couldn't stop herself and brought her own quilt to temporarily save Xu Miaoyan's life.

Queen Xu and Yan Xianzhi were both banned, and Jiang Mihe was in a good mood.
She made an excuse to go back to the general's mansion, and found Jiang Feng to ask him how the poison investigation was going.
Jiang Feng said: "This matter is more involved than we thought, so we have to wait a little longer."
From the time he was injured to what happened in Songjiang Mansion many years ago, it was all related to that poison.
Jiang Mihe continued to ask: "Where is father? When will he arrive? Have the Queen and the First Prince contacted him? He hasn't made any promises, right?"
What she was most worried about was her father Jiang Zhen. She was afraid that he would be stubborn and that he would be plotted by the mother and son.
Jiang Feng also has this concern, but Jiang Zhen can be very stubborn sometimes. He once stood firmly on the side of Queen Xu and Yan Xianzhi, but he doesn't know if he has changed his mind now.
"Brother, you should advise father. Even though the queen is still the queen, Yan Xianzhi is no longer the prince. Now the prince is sitting on another person. Since my father said that he will always be loyal to Dayan, he should support him. The next monarch.”
Jiang Feng squinted his eyes and thought, he felt that perhaps persuading Jiang Zhen as Jiang Mihe said would have a different effect.
"Okay, father should be back a few days before New Year's Eve. I'll find an opportunity to test his attitude first."
Jiang Mihe was relieved for the time being, and sighed as he ate a snack from home, "It's better to have our own home."
The more than ten years before getting married were the happiest time in her life. Looking back now, she will envy her happy and carefree self.
Jiang Feng felt sad: "Wait a little longer, sister."
The bottle of poison was of great use in Yan Fuguang's hands. Jiang Feng guessed that Yan Xianzhi was not the only one who had a grudge against Yan Fuguang. The bumbling queen in the palace must also be among them.
He was waiting for the day when Queen Xu completely lost power.
So as soon as the incident between Yan Xianzhi and Qiao Guangyuan spread, Jiang Feng went to Emperor Xihe to complain. He was laying the groundwork step by step, hoping to pave a way home for his sister.
Jiang Mihe was not worried about her situation. She turned to comfort her brother: "You go about your business, I will take good care of myself and Zheng'er. We, the children of the Jiang family, will not be afraid of anything."
She left these words calmly and quickly left the general's residence.
Jiang Feng couldn't sit still and came to the Prince's Mansion to find Yan Fuguang.
"Your Highness, how is the poison issue going?"
Yan Fuguang trusted Jiang Feng.
He said: "The death of the previous magistrate of Songjiang Prefecture and others is confirmed to be related to him. The poison can definitely flow out from his hands, and he was also in Songjiang Prefecture at the time."
This means that Yan Xianzhi's evil deeds were eventually discovered.
Jiang Feng was very excited: "With the subsequent assassination, aren't we completely sure to sue him?"
Yan Fuguang said, "Wait a moment, I still have something very important to check."
The several doctors who were kept in the mansion finally had some effect. Yesterday, Dr. Jiang came to report that she had discovered that this poison could be remade into another poison after processing.
The new poison made was two words that Yan Fuguang had heard before - "Lingchi".
