The night is like water, and it is extremely cool. The fragrance of lotus bursts from the Green Moon Corridor, and the aroma of Ye Lai is even more intense. After the Rhododendron incident, there were few people in the Biyue corridor, and no one came to appreciate the lotus. It was rare during the day and even less at night.

This area is very quiet, Yun Buhui and Bingyue just walked to the Biyue corridor when they heard a burst of crying, and there was a smell of burning paper money. The master and servant looked at each other and walked over together. In the gray light, there was a woman crying softly by the lake, burning paper money, muttering words.

Yun Buhui approached and saw that it was Xiaoping, and Xiaoping also saw Yun Buhui and Bingyue, and hurriedly saluted, burning paper money in private in this mansion was a violation of house rules, Xiaoping was very frightened, not to mention bumping into someone who violated the house rules It was Yun Buhui who was in charge again, Xiaoping repeatedly kowtowed to plead guilty, begging Yun Buhui to let her go, Yun Buhui hurriedly helped her up, "Are you burning paper money for Du Juan?"

Xiaoping's eyes were red, and she nodded heavily, "Today is Dujuan's first seven, she walks alone, and no one burns paper money for her, anyway, the slaves have served her, so I want to burn some paper money for her, let her live You can live more comfortably down here."

Yun Buhui thought, this is a loyal girl, Du Juan is arrogant and domineering, not many people in the house like her, people in Xiyuan hate her even more, unexpectedly Xiaoping remembers her well.

Xiaoping said, "Although Du Juan was domineering when she gained power, her nature was not bad. I have served slaves in Xiyuan for many years, and I have seen even worse tempered ones. The side concubine assigned slaves to serve Du Juan. Although she was mean, she never felt sorry for slaves. , the servants should burn some paper money for her."

Under the light of the lights, Xiaoping's face was dark and bright, and tears were streaked across her face. Yun Bugui saw that her tone was still sincere, and he was willing to believe her in his heart. When a person died, the past was never to be blamed, and Du Juan was an orphan. Since I grew up in the mansion, I should burn some paper money.

"Concubine Shizi, just let this servant go this time. I assure you that there will never be a next time." Xiaoping said, Yun Buhui nodded and smiled slightly, "In the dead of night, there are few people, no one will pass by here, you Give her some paper money, it's a little bit of my heart."

Xiaoping thanked her again and again, and burned all the remaining paper money. Yun Buhui stared at her thoughtfully, Xiaoping is Du Juan's close maid, she should know the sachet on Du Juan...

"Xiao Ping, I have something to ask you, I wonder if you would like to tell me." Yun Buhui lowered his tone, lest he would startle her, Xiao Ping raised his head and replied, she knew everything.Yun Buhui said, "That day we were playing mahjong in the garden, and the cuckoo came over. I smelled her fragrance, and I also like that fragrance. What kind of fragrance does she usually use?"

"It's Jasmine." Xiao Ping said, "Young Master likes Jasmine, so Dujuan always wears Jasmine."

Yun Buhui acted like he had suddenly realized, "No wonder, that day I turned my head to look at her sachet, and it was also very delicately made, it turned out to be Jasmine."

"The sachet that the concubine Shizi mentioned was given to Du Juan by the eldest grandma. The eldest grandma said that Du Juan was an orphan, and no one at home congratulated Du Juan when she was pregnant, so she embroidered a sachet and put it on top of it. The spices were put in and given to Du Juan as a gift, and Du Juan saw that the sachet was made uniquely and was given by the eldest grandma, so she often showed it off, so she wore it every day except for sleeping." Xiaoping said.

Yun Buhui was shocked, did Lou Yanran send it?

She told Bingyue that she didn't suspect anyone in her heart, she actually lied, she did suspect Lou Yanran, all this was indeed too coincidental, first Du Juan taunted the two concubines in the garden, then Du Juan filed a complaint, Lou Yanran was punished, Du Juan was blamed. While she was sick, Du Juan had an accident and lost her child. All these calculations were seamless, and even the timing was such a coincidence.

From the moment Du Juan was pregnant, Lou Yanran was thinking about how to get rid of the child without anyone noticing, so she came up with the sachet as a gift. She knew Du Juan's temperament, so she would definitely wear it every day and hear about it every day. Wearing musk must be harmful to the mother and fetus.A slight discomfort would cause a miscarriage, Lou Yanran calculated the time correctly, she was punished to be bedridden, and Du Juan had a miscarriage, no one would suspect her.

Yun Buhui sighed from the bottom of his heart, Lou Yanran really did his best.

No wonder she felt the needlework of the sachet was so familiar, Lou Yanran seldom did needlework, only once for Yaoguang's birthday, she gave a purse embroidered with roses, Yaoguang also said at that time that she liked peonies, Why didn't she embroider peonies, so I have some impressions.

Now that I think about it, it really is the same needlework.

Those sicknesses and grievances were all pretended, she was amazing, Yun Buhui secretly scolded herself for being stupid, and even went to tell Cheng Youtian that married wives should not be vindictive because of Lou Yanran, so she didn't need anyone's help , She can turn things around by herself.

And it was so clever that no one noticed it.

"Concubine Shizi, there is one thing that I don't know whether I should say or not." Xiaoping looked at Yun Buhui hesitantly, as if she had something to say, Yun Buhui smiled slightly and encouraged her, "Say it."

Xiaoping bit her lip and said, "Du Juan has been abused by the side concubine after giving birth. The mother said that Du Juan deserved to die if she killed the child, so she did heavy work and was beaten with a stick after she gave birth. She begged the eldest grandma for help." However, the young mistress said that she did not dare to offend the side concubine. Du Juan was upset and vowed to take revenge in the future. Although she has a strong temper, she is eager to live and will never ask for death. The slaves can't figure out why Du Juan threw himself into the lake , Numai was really surprised, the night before she died, she told Numai that she would definitely get back what she lost."

"Is this serious?" Yun Buhui was astonished.Could it be that the cuckoo committed suicide by throwing himself into the lake, and there is something else hidden?

"Naturally, this servant must not dare to lie. If there is a lie, this servant will suffer a terrible death." Xiaoping swore that Yun Buhui's face was heavy. If Du Juan's throwing into the lake was not an accident, there was someone deliberately trying to kill her.

She has no child, so she is useless to Lou Yanran. There is no need for Lou Yanran to kill her. Based on her understanding of Lou Yanran, Lou Yanran must want Du Juan to watch her secure her position as the eldest mistress. Du Juan was jealous of her and would rather die than live.

"Xiao Ping, don't mention what happened tonight to outsiders. You also know that Du Juan's family has a lot of grievances. If people find out that you burned paper money for her in private, they will think that you and Du Juan are of the same mind, and they will definitely embarrass you in the future. As for the cuckoo throwing into the lake, you have doubts in your heart and shut your mouth tightly. Don’t say too much, or you will cause trouble to your upper body. Don’t say a word, including my question about cuckoo spices. Just pretend that you haven’t been here tonight. Do you understand?" Yun Buhui said in a deep voice.
