Chapter 11 Thanks to that woman

Tang Mian left half a cup of tea when the maid came back.

"Xiao Cui, where have you been?" the county magistrate's wife asked with a cold face.

Xiao Cui, who came back in a hurry, panicked for a moment, tensed her back and replied: "Go back to Madam, I have gone to the latrine."

Then he thought that Madam was almost done playing, and relaxed again.

But who was the woman who just told her?

When she rushed to the place she agreed to before going up the mountain, she saw no one at all, so she ran back in a panic.

Xiaocui's behavior made the county magistrate's wife's eyes darken, there was indeed something wrong.

Although she didn't quite believe what the woman said just now, she was still vigilant.So when she asked Xiao Cui what to say, her eyes were fixed on Xiao Cui.

Xiaocui's performance now made her believe the woman's words a little bit.

Later, she will ask the abbot of Yuqing Temple to take her pulse. If the diagnosis of Xi pulse is really diagnosed, then the woman's words are most likely true.

"Madam, I'm hungry. Go to the kitchen and get some food to send to the dormitory."

Xiao Cui was stunned for a moment, "Madam, aren't you going to sit in a small pavilion in the mountain now?"

"I'm tired and want to go back to the dormitory to rest. You go to the kitchen to get some food first." The county magistrate's wife said calmly.

"But..." Xiaocui was a little anxious. How could she do anything without going to the small pavilion in the mountain?

"But what?" The county magistrate's wife looked at Xiao Cui expressionlessly.

Xiaocui came back to her senses and immediately shook her head, "It's nothing. I will go get something to eat for Madam."

After saying that, he brushed himself off and left.

The situation had really changed, and she had to inform the people over there quickly.

After Xiaocui left, the county magistrate's wife did not go back to the dormitory to rest as she said, but instead went to find the host.

Tang Mian didn't really leave, he just hid not far away and secretly observed. After seeing Xiaocui and the county magistrate's wife come out separately, he guessed that the county magistrate's wife might have believed her.

Tang Mian thought for a while and secretly followed the county magistrate's wife.On Xiaocui's side, as long as the county magistrate's wife becomes suspicious, she will definitely send someone to investigate.

As he followed, Tang Mian discovered that the direction the county magistrate's wife was going seemed to be the monastic room of the host.

I heard that the director of Yuqing Temple has good medical skills, and I thought that the county magistrate's wife came to confirm whether she was pregnant.

Tang Mian stopped when she came to the host's meditation room. Now she just had to wait quietly for the county magistrate's wife to come out.

After a while, the county magistrate's wife appeared in Tang Mian's sight again with her hands stroking her belly and a happy face.It seems that the county magistrate's wife has confirmed that she is pregnant with a child.

In the blink of an eye, the county magistrate's wife's expression became angry again, and she hurried away, protecting her stomach.

Tang Mian saw this and followed him.

After the county magistrate's wife left the presiding room, she returned to the dormitory where she rested.

Next to her lived Aunt Liu, who accompanied her up the mountain this time.

Grandma Liu felt unwell after going up the mountain and had been resting in her room.

At first, the county magistrate's wife thought that Nanny Liu had suffered from heatstroke, but now she realized that someone had done it deliberately.

Not only did Grandma Liu have to lie down on the bed to rest as soon as she went up the mountain, but even the two guards were nowhere to be seen.

Previously, her whole mind was on worshiping the Bodhisattva, and she was accompanied by a close maid, so she didn't think much about it.Now I know that everything was arranged by someone with intentions, just to make it easier to attack her.

The county magistrate's wife walked to the door of the room where Nanny Liu was resting and raised her hand to open the door. "Madam." Nanny Liu was not asleep. When she heard the voice, she turned to look at the door. When she saw it was the county magistrate's wife, she immediately stood up.

"Mama Liu, please don't get up and have a good rest." The county magistrate's wife came in and said.

Aunt Liu was still holding herself up, looking at the county magistrate's wife, and said a little weakly: "I am old, my body is weak, and I am so tired that my wife came to see me."

"What are you talking about, Aunt Liu? You have taken care of me for many years. In my eyes, you are an elder." The county magistrate's wife walked to Aunt Liu's bed and sat down.

"The old slave dare not."

"Why are you here, Madam?" According to usual habits, shouldn't Madam be in a small pavilion in the mountains?
Grandma Liu thought doubtfully.

The county magistrate's wife calmly told the matter to Nanny Liu. After hearing this, Nanny Liu's eyes widened and she gasped and said angrily: "What? That little bitch dared to murder my wife. See if I don't tear him apart." she."

"I won't let her go. However, the most important thing now is to find evidence. She won't admit it if she makes nothing. Moreover, we can't find out the person behind her." The county magistrate's wife said coldly.

Aunt Liu nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, madam, you are right."

"Speaking of which, I really have to thank the woman who took the risk to remind me. If we were all kept in the dark, the consequences would be disastrous."

"Well, what mama said is right." The county magistrate's wife was also glad that Tang Mian broke through the conspiracy of Xiao Cui and the person behind it.

Otherwise, both she and the child would be in danger.

"Mommy, there is something that must be done now. But I don't have anyone available at Yuqing Temple, so I can only do it with my sick body."

Aunt Liu regained her energy, sat up straight and said, "Madam, please tell me, I will get things done even if I risk my life."

"Mommy, don't worry, it's not that bad." The county magistrate's wife looked at Nanny Liu and said.

"I have ordered Xiaocui to go to the kitchen to get me something to eat. I will hold her back later, and I will contact the guards who followed me up the mountain and take them to the mountain pavilion to check." Xiaocui heard this before. After she stopped going to the mountain pavilion, she looked very anxious. She guessed that there must be something wrong with the mountain pavilion.

Aunt Liu immediately shook her head, "No. I can just take one of the guards with me, and the other one has to stay behind to protect my wife."

How could she leave Madam alone to face someone who wanted to harm her?

"Okay, if you don't have enough manpower, just go to the host and ask him for help." The county magistrate's wife nodded and said.

"Also, you can quietly ask the masters in the temple to see if you can find the woman who reported the message to me." After that, he told Grandma Liu about Tang Mian's dress and appearance.

After hearing this, Aunt Liu responded: "Yes, I understand."

"After the investigation is complete, I will ask the host to check Madam's pulse and make sure she is fine before you can rest assured."

The county magistrate's wife smiled and shook her head, "No need, I've asked the host to check. She's fine. She's just over a month pregnant and needs more attention."

"What? Madam, madam is pregnant?" Grandma Liu stared at the belly of the county magistrate's wife in surprise.

"Yes." The county magistrate's wife answered her affirmatively.

Grandma Liu was so happy that she clasped her hands together and muttered, "Bodhisattva bless you, Bodhisattva bless you, my wife is finally happy!"

The county magistrate's wife also touched her belly with a smile on her face. Emperor Tian had lived up to his wishes. After drinking so many medicines and worshiping the Bodhisattva for so long, she was finally pregnant.

However, now is not the time to be happy. Her heart will not be at peace for a moment unless she finds out the person who wants to harm her.

"Mommy, I'll go back to the room first, and you can go check it out after you find the guard." The county magistrate's wife stood up and said.

Aunt Liu responded: "Okay. Madam, don't worry, I will definitely get things done."

"I can rest assured that grandma is doing things."

After the county magistrate's wife finished speaking, she left Grandma Liu's room. Grandma Liu immediately opened the quilt, got dressed and got out of bed.
