Chapter 642: The Cannon Fodder Concubine Sister in the Story of the Concubine
Pei Xian should have died of poisoning, but she still remembered that when the mansion asked a doctor to treat Pei Xian, the doctor did not mention the poisoning.
Moreover, according to the number of times Chunxiang described, Pei Xian would not fall so quickly.
Could it be that... someone else is involved in this?
Half an hour later, looking at the black silver medal, Jiang Yueshu frowned.
After restoring the mourning hall to its original state, she quietly left.
The previous doctor must have known the truth about Pei Xian's death best, but that person was invited by Madam Pei from the palace, saying that he was the imperial physician.
With her current status, she can't see it at all.
Then...she can only start with Madam Pei.
-
The eldest lady of Duke Pei's mansion was so sad that she fainted.
Because of her weak body, Jiang Yueshu had the opportunity to rest in Qiong Yue Pavilion for a day. Taking this opportunity, she controlled all the spies in the courtyard.
"Luwu, go to the kitchen to get the food. Remember to look for Zizhu in the Second Young Master's wife's room. After you get it, take a detour to Yiheyuan!"
Yiheyuan is the courtyard of Lady Pei, and she wanted to test her attitude.
-
"Madam, the meal is here."
The newly promoted maid Lu Wu came forward with a food box. When she opened it, she saw that most of the food was vegetarian.
The soup is bland and looks like it could easily make people lose their appetite.
"how's it going?"
Seeing that there was no soup or water in the food box, Jiang Yueshu took out a silver needle and began to test for poison.
Lu Wu bowed her head respectfully. "The eldest young lady's guess was correct. When I passed by Yihe Garden, I ran into her. She saw me carrying a food box and wanted to check it out. When she saw the turtle soup prepared by the second young lady, she scolded me for not knowing the rules of mourning! She asked the nanny to take away the turtle soup and strictly forbade anyone in the mansion to violate the rules!"
"understood."
The food was indeed not poisonous, so Jiang Yueshu ate it with confidence.
When there is a funeral in the house, killing and eating meat are not allowed during the mourning period. In particular, light and vegetarian food is required, but this does not mean that one should be merciless.
If the master is weak and needs to be well taken care of, he can still drink some nourishing soup appropriately, otherwise Ning Xuanxuan would not make soup for Pei Yan.
She had told the public that she was ill, but Madam Pei was blatantly withholding the tonic soup, showing her disgust for her in public.
However, he could temporarily avoid Ning Xuanxuan's plan.
As expected, Madam Pei was furious in the mansion. She specially called all the female members of the family except the old ancestor over and glanced at each of them with a gloomy look.
"This is a special period in the mansion. Everyone must follow the rules. If anyone dares to break the rules, offend the law, and undermine the family tradition of our mansion, I don't care who she is. Even if she is the master of the mansion, I will punish her severely!"
Jiang Yueshu escaped this because she was ill and bedridden, but several maids around her were called over to be lectured, and the lecture would be conveyed to Jiang Yueshu when they returned.
After saying this, she deliberately glanced at the maids around Jiang Yueshu.
In addition, the news of her scolding Lu Wu in the morning spread, and everyone instantly realized that she was indirectly criticizing the eldest young master's wife.
Ning Xuanxuan's eyes flickered when she heard that.
I had intended to use the nourishing soup to slowly kill that bitch, but I hadn't expected that she would be so lucky to escape.
I was angry, but I had to bear it.
After all, she asked Pei Yan to be with her for the rest of his life, and asked him to exchange his military merits for a marriage between them. Madam Pei was already dissatisfied with her, and she could not act rashly anymore.
I can only find another opportunity to get rid of that person.
