The emperor's uncle is the only favorite: the mysterious doctor's crazy concubine is going

Chapter 278 Cruel and cruel
  Seeing this, the maid's voice became a little softer: "Back to the old lady, I was ordered by the second lady to go to the kitchen to check. The kitchen said that cold cakes will be prepared at noon today..."
  "What do you mean?" The old lady didn't react yet and stared at the servant strangely.
  The maid looked at Shen Zhuoxi in embarrassment, obviously not daring to accuse Shen Zehuan.
  The old lady was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses, and said suspiciously: "The kitchen didn't cook it, so where did the cold cake that Zehuan brought come from?"
  "I don't know." The servant shook her head and whispered, "I guess I bought it from outside."
  "Why do you say that the things you bought came from the kitchen?" The old lady frowned and said, "What is Zehuan doing?"
  Shen Zhuoxi had guessed some clues and said with a smile: "Grandma, he is also very filial. He probably saw a cold cake seller on the way back and was worried that you would be angry, so he used the kitchen as an excuse."
  "This child." The old lady did not doubt it and just sighed: "It's a pity that his careless mother harmed him!"
  "Yes, I hope that the eldest lady can change. How could I know that behind the scenes, she is cheating and taking money from the Taishi Mansion to help her family." Shen Zhuoxi said, pouring a glass of water for the old taijun.
  "Don't be angry. For the sake of the children, the eldest lady may be able to figure it out."
  How can the old lady not be angry? There is so much money!
  And looking at Yingge's behavior, it is true that the money will not be available for a while, and the Grand Master's Mansion will prepare a dowry for Shen Zhuoxi...
  All kinds of things piled up, and the old lady felt a headache just by thinking about it for a moment.
  She wanted to blame Shen Zhuoxi, but because she was here to attend to his illness, she couldn't say anything, so she put the cup heavily on the table and said, "No one can worry."
  Shen Zhuoxi knew that she meant something, so he was not annoyed and kept smiling: "Old lady, please take care of yourself, otherwise the eldest lady will have the final say in the house."
  The old lady was so confused that after drinking the water she lay down and closed her eyes to rest.
  Aunt Yuan came back and prepared the medicine. Shen Zhuoxi watched the old lady drink the medicine with her own eyes before leaving.
  After taking a few steps, Aunt Yuan caught up from behind: "Second Miss, stay back."
  Shen Zhuoxi stopped and said, "Is there anything else?"
  "My servant wants to ask." Aunt Yuan looked around and whispered: "Since there is no problem with the medicine you gave me, is the problem with the cold cake?"
  "Yes." Shen Zhuoxi didn't hide it and said, "The cold cake has been iced and contains laxatives. You will definitely feel uncomfortable after eating it."
  "The old lady loves the young master so much. What on earth does the young master want to do? He has harmed the old lady so many times and it's going to cost him his life!" Grandma Yuan gritted her teeth angrily: "No, I have to ask the young master!"
  "Now that you have stopped trying to scare the snake, what result can you expect?" Shen Zhuoxi stopped her and said, "The cold cake was brought in from outside. He can probably deduce that the hawker outside made it uncleanly."
  "Even if the hawker is caught, punishment will not solve the root cause. Shen Zehuan can still do whatever he wants."
  Aunt Yuan suddenly gave up her strength and said dejectedly: "Then what should we do?"
  "The old lady's illness came at the wrong time. They must have taken some action." Shen Zhuoxi paused and whispered: "You will take the opportunity to pour out the medicine dregs later to see what's in that row of holly trees." inappropriate."
  "After you find out, come and tell me quietly. Don't let anyone know, especially the maids serving around the old lady. Go in person!"
  Grandma Yuan followed her words and looked towards the holly tree: "What could be wrong over there?"
  "Just go and watch, don't let anyone notice the clues." Shen Zhuoxi didn't explain too much: "Also, there should be a thief around the old lady, so you should pay more attention."
  Aunt Yuan wanted to ask again, but she saw a maid coming out of the house, so she had to change her words: "Yes, there is something unusual here, the old lady, I will go find the second lady."
  Every move in Jing'an Garden was reported to Shen Zehuan by the maid in green clothes.
  "That's wrong." Shen Zehuan held a small medicine bag in his hand, looked at it over and over, and said, "It's because the medicine didn't work so quickly. What time is it?"
  "Maybe it's because the old lady is weak." The maid didn't know the reason, so she could only say: "The old lady was feeling unwell a few days ago, and she even asked the imperial doctor to check on her."
  "Okay, I understand." Shen Zehuan thought for a while, handed the medicine bag to the maid, and said: "The old lady has just vomited many times, and she must want to drink water. Please sprinkle some medicine powder into the water. "
  The maid hesitated: "At this juncture, Aunt Yuan will definitely be careful. Will anyone notice her if she is placed in the water?"
  "The medicinal powder is colorless and odorless when blended into the water." Shen Zehuan was a little more impatient: "Don't you always want to redeem yourself? After this time, I will give you a contract to sell myself and let you go."
  It was precisely because the medicinal powder was colorless and odorless that when he came back from the long alley, he ordered his attendant to go to the cold cake shop nearby to buy cold cakes and add ginseng to it.
  He had taken the antidote beforehand and dared to take it with the old lady openly.
  "Thank you, young master." The maid saluted and said, "There is something wrong in Jing'an Garden. I will come back and report it."
  But Shen Zehuan said: "Just find an opportunity to put the medicine in immediately. Don't come here again. If you come out frequently, you will also arouse suspicion!"
  The conversation between the maid and Shen Zehuan was clearly heard by Hui Zhi outside the window.
  She returned to Qingfeng Tower in an instant and reported to Shen Zhuoxi.
  "I have taken laxatives several times." Shen Zhuoxi weighed the things in his hands and said slowly: "No matter how you look at it, you have no intention. If you want to kill the old lady, wouldn't it be better to just poison it?"
  Hui Zhi also felt strange: "Yes, the old lady felt better after taking the medicine you gave me, and then immediately took laxatives. Half of her life has been lost, and you have to suffer the same."
  This sentence reminded Shen Zhuoxi!
  She suddenly stood up and said: "Shen Zehuan's target is not only the old lady, but also me. He knows that after the doctor comes once, I will take care of the rest."
  "Once the old lady vomits again, I will definitely stay in Jing'an Garden, then..."
  Shen Zhuoxi then thought about the things on the holly tree, and her eyes gradually became cold: "He wants to kill me and the old lady!"
  Hui Zhi was startled: "Impossible? Even if the young master hates you and the old lady, how dare he cause death?"
  "Yu Qinglian owes me more than two million taels of silver, and the old lady forced me to ask for more than two million taels of silver." Shen Zhuoxi snorted coldly: "As long as we die, we don't have to pay back the money."
  "Yu Qinglian can still sit in the most stable position of mistress in the Taishi Mansion. She has the final say in everything. What a good plan!"
  Dragonfly also felt that Shen Zehuan should not be able to be so cruel: "Just leave it to you. The old lady loves the young master very much. Can the young master be cruel enough to kill?"
  "Let's wait for the news from Aunt Yuan. If things are as I thought, we'll be inseparable." Shen Zhuoxi said with a slight smile.
  Aunt Yuan was worried about the old lady's safety, so she didn't let Shen Zhuoxi wait too long.
  In less than a cup of tea, he came to Qingfeng Tower out of breath: "Second Miss, we found out!"
