I can't afford to mess with the concubine doctor

Chapter 62

But even if he saw clearly, it was useless, because that person was pretended by Ling Xiao, even if Qu Liancheng turned the general's mansion upside down, it would not help.

"Princess, I don't know if I should say something or not."

"Princess Xinyue just speak up."

Qu Lingxu bent his knees and blessed him, and slowly said: "Almost at the same time, aphrodisiacs appeared in the tea of ​​Rong Sheng and Qu Dingbang at the same time, and the methods were the same, and the victims were Princess Qingyu. And my daughter, when things get serious, the general's mansion will definitely confront Shangzhongyonghou's mansion and the emperor at the same time. When the emperor is furious, he will inevitably implicate his father. The army is about to leave. If there is a problem with the commander, the morale of the army will definitely be shaken. "

What a smart person Princess Anle is, how could she not understand what Qu Lingxu meant? Even Qu Liancheng couldn't help but change his face, and said in disbelief: "You mean, the people from the Red Flower Society are making troubles. ?”

"The Red Flower Society has been very powerful in the past two years. Although most of their power is in the south, it is not impossible to ambush a few hidden stakes in the capital. The key to all this is the Song Si that Zhao Sankou said." So As he said that, Qu Lingxu signaled Yun Yi to bring Zhao San in, and said calmly, "Are you sure you can recognize Song Si?"

To this, Zhao San nodded without hesitation, "Small sure."

"Okay." Qu Lingxu turned his gaze to Mrs. Xu, who had not said a word, and said with a half-smile: "I also ask Auntie to call all the servants of Jinxiu Pavilion here, so that Zhao San can identify them."

"Miss, what is the meaning of this? Do you suspect that the red flowers hidden in the concubine's body will cause chaos?" Xu looked at Qu Lingxu in disbelief, as if she had been insulted by the sky, and it took a while to recover from her nerves Come, with a sob in his voice, he said: "I have no grievances or enmity with Rong Sheng's son, why do I want to kill him, even if I will harm my son, is it possible that I will also kill my own son?"

You can't harm your own son, but you can harm others, right?
Qu Lingxu was not in the mood to appreciate Xu's outstanding acting skills, so he just said indifferently: "Second Aunt really wronged Xu'er by saying this. It's because there is no suspicion that Zhao San is not afraid to identify her, isn't she?"

……

Xu didn't expect Qu Lingxu to block her retreat with a simple sentence. If the stalemate continues, it will definitely arouse Princess Anle's suspicion, and even Qu Liancheng will have doubts in her heart. Fortunately, she did it. Before that, I deduced the whole process of this matter carefully with Qu Fengyan, and blocked all the loopholes. I was not afraid that Qu Lingxu would find out anything, so I had to order the personal nurse to call all the servants. Come in.

Jinxiu Pavilion has many more servants than Jianjia Courtyard, there are more than 30 people, Zhao San followed Qu Lingxu's instructions, and identified them one by one, but finally found nothing.

After that, all the servants of Qu Dingbang and Qu Fengyan were called in, but they also got nothing.

Now, Qu Lingxu was really at a loss.

Could it be that she guessed wrong, Xu's soldiers took a risky move, specially bought a rough envoy to inform him, and then quietly sent him out of the house or killed him to silence him?
It's not that she didn't think of this trick before, but she just felt that it didn't conform to Xu's usual cautious style.

"Miss, now that you have identified everything, don't you still believe in my innocence?" After so many days, she finally gained the upper hand in the confrontation with Qu Lingxu, not to mention how proud she is, let alone if If no strong evidence can be found, it is indirectly stated that Zhao San was the instigator of Qu Lingxu himself, in order to stir up trouble and frame Princess Qingyu and Qu Dingbang.

"Second Aunt misunderstood. In Xu'er's eyes, you have always been the most gentle and kind elder. How can you be associated with the word innocence?" Seeing the unconcealed pride in Xu's eyes, Qu Lingxu just felt very bored, and was thinking about whether to search the whole house, but a casual glance from the corner of her eye made her change her mind.

Because Zhao San said that it was a man who contacted him, she has been searching for this Song Si among the servants, but she has ignored a possibility...

Dress up as a man.

Moreover, recalling carefully, Qu Fengyan clearly had two first-class maids by her side, but today only one of them was by her side, and the other, Qing'er, had never been seen.

Isn't this the most suspicious place?

"Zhao San, what is the approximate height of that Song Si?" Qu Lingxu's eyes gradually fixed on Qu Fengyan when he said this, and Qu Fengyan's scalp became numb from her penetrating gaze. almost instinctively avoided.

However, until now, no matter how much she escaped, it was useless.

When the Qu Lingxu sisters confronted each other secretly, Zhao Sanyi replied: "Song Si is not tall, but a little shorter than the little one, and his figure is also very small, with thin skin and tender flesh, not at all like a little one who does rough work. Boy, the younger one asked him jokingly, he said that he had also studied before, and sold himself as a slave only after his family fell into poverty. The eldest lady saw that he was talented and learned, so she asked him to do some errands and manage accounts. Rough work, the little one completely believed him."

"Very well, Miss Ben understands."

"Miss, what do you understand?" Zhao San was still at a loss, and really didn't know what Qu Lingxu was talking about.

Rong Sheng also had doubts, but before he had time to ask, Princess An Le stopped him with his eyes.

"Sister, Qing'er usually stays close to you, why didn't you see her today?" Qu Lingxu didn't answer Zhao San's question, but looked at Qu Fengyan with a smile.

When hearing the word Qing'er, Qu Fengyan felt his knees go limp, and if he hadn't supported himself, he might have fallen to the ground.

At that moment, she even had the urge to run away.

However, that is destined to be a luxury.

The hands hidden in the sleeves were clenched tightly, as if he had lost all intuition, Qu Fengyan exhausted all his strength, and managed to squeeze out a smile, "Qing'er's mother is sick, she has to go back to take care of her for a few days, my sister asked Is she okay?"

"What a coincidence, my sister really has something to do with her." Qu Lingxu sighed slightly, and said lightly, "Yun Yi, take two of you to the servant's room and invite Miss Qing'er over." Then she whispered in her ear again Whispered a few words.

"Master..." Yun Yi's eyes widened in disbelief, but after a moment she seemed to understand what Qu Lingxu meant, and bowed out.

"Sister, Qing'er is my sister's girl no matter what, even if you have something to do, you have to tell her first, don't you?" Qu Fengyan insisted fiercely.

"Sister, don't worry, my sister will definitely give you a big surprise in a while."

As for whether it is a surprise or a fright, it depends on who it is for.

During this process, Qu Liancheng kept silent, but it didn't mean he didn't know what to do. He knew very well that this daughter would not do anything for no reason, but selfishly speaking, he didn't want Qu Fengyan, a "life-leader" Dagui's daughter had any mistakes, so she coughed lightly, "Xu'er, I'm tired of tossing around all day today, let's discuss some irrelevant matters!"

He didn't want to make things big, Qu Lingxu was so smart, he should understand what he meant.

Facing Qu Liancheng's seemingly benevolent but actually threatening eyes, the smile on Qu Lingxu's face never faded, "Father's words are wrong, what is more important than arresting the Honghua Society to disrupt the party?" ?”

Can't stand it anymore?

A sentence without any emotion, but it completely dispelled Qu Liancheng's idea of ​​continuing to protect Qu Fengyan. He knew that there might be a safflower hidden in the mansion, but he turned a blind eye and closed his eyes. This will be passed on to the emperor. In the ear, according to the suspicious nature of the other party, his head is not far from moving.

Seeing that Qu Liancheng had eaten darkly and stopped making a sound, Qu Lingxu also ignored him, but turned his gaze to Qu Dingbang, and said indifferently: "Young Master Qu, while you are free now, you might as well talk to the Eldest Princess Your Highness, tell father, where did this teacup come from?"

"What's the matter with you..." Qu Dingbang instinctively wanted to contradict him, but feeling the burning pain coming from his left cheek, he endured it and said coldly, "Why are you asking this!"

Ha ha.

Qu Lingxu laughed angrily at Qu Dingbang's stupid question, and said bluntly: "If Mr. Qu thinks it's easy to be accused of offending the princess, then there's no need to say it."

She really couldn't understand, with the IQ of the Xu sisters, how could such idiots as Princess Qingyu and Qu Dingbang be born, not to mention, it's quite suitable to be a couple, so as not to harm others.

"You..." Qu Dingbang was stunned, but it was rare to get a little enlightened, and he was unwilling but helpless and said: "It was issued by the inner government."

Recently, a new high-end ceramics store opened in the capital. The tea sets inside are freshly painted and exquisitely shaped, which are very popular with princes and nobles. If you want to buy something, you can buy a few sets and give them to Qu Liancheng, a general in Qu Liancheng. , not interested in these elegant things, just took a look at them and asked the housekeeper to take them to the inner palace for registration, and then distributed them to the courtyards. Yunyi used the same kind of teacups to make tea for Rong Sheng before.

"It's a coincidence. It seems that the steward of the inner palace is going to come." As soon as Qu Lingxu finished speaking, Yun Xin turned around knowingly and left without even looking at Qu Liancheng.

Not long after Yun Xin left, Yun Yi and two servants from Jianjia Court brought in a man dressed as a servant. The man's mouth was stuffed with a white cloth and he couldn't make a sound, he just kept twisting his body and trying to Breaking free, but no matter how hard she struggled, it was of no avail.

Qu Lingxu smiled dignifiedly and gently, until Xu's scalp became numb, before he said lightly: "Zhao San, take a good look, is this person Song Si you mentioned?"

This time, Zhao San just glanced at it, then nodded with great certainty, "Miss, it's him, it's him!"

"Are you sure?"

"I'm sure it's him!" Although Zhao San is not a smart person, after walking around, he has already understood that the so-called Song Si was not ordered by Qu Lingxu, and this matter is related to his wealth and life. Testify relentlessly.
