The Empress Dowager

Chapter 20 Planting ([-])

"Mother will help you to uphold justice." Jiang smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes: "Lu'er said, it was Dongmei, the maid beside Yue'er, who came to pass the message?"

"Yes, mother." Nangong Lu replied.

Jiang looked at Dongmei, and said again: "Dongmei, is there such a thing?"

"This morning, my servant has been with the Second Miss. I have never visited the Fourth Miss. I hope Madam will find out!" Dongmei knelt on the ground with a 'plop', her voice trembling.

Nangong Yue couldn't help but secretly sighed, poor girl, it was because she followed her master that she was confronted like this.

"Lu'er, what did this girl tell you this morning?" Jiang asked again.

"Yes, mother." Nangong Lu glanced at Dongmei, nodded, very sure.

"Fourth sister, you have to look carefully. Sometimes you wear the same clothes and dress, but you may not be the same person. Needless to say, everyone knows this. It is not difficult to imitate someone. Fourth sister, do you see clearly? What does that person look like?"

"This...that man has his head down. I didn't see his face clearly, but the pastries that he gave are still there." Nangong Lu frowned: "Qiuyue, bring me the plate of pastries from the morning."

"Yes, miss." Qiuyue blessed Fushen, walked to the table, opened the food box, and a plate of fragrant pastries appeared in front of everyone. Qiuyue picked up the plate and walked over.

"This pastry was brought by the maid in the morning. It is exactly the same as what Second Sister invited me to eat last time." Nangong Lu glanced at the pastry, very sure.

"I can't believe it, the second sister will..." Nangong Qi said that she didn't believe it, but her expression was very clear. Unable to hide the corners of her slightly raised mouth, now the main house of Linglong Pavilion is hers.

Nangong Yue ignored Nangong Qi, but signaled Dongmei to share the pastry with Jiang and Nangong Lu. She also took a piece of pastry and took a small bite. It was soft and smooth in the mouth, fragrant and delicious!

"Yue'er, did you do this?" Jiang glanced at Nangong Yue. These pastries all taste similar, so what can you eat?

Nangong Yue handed half of the pastry to Dongmei: "No, although the pastry on this plate is similar to mine, the taste is still different."

"Did the fourth sister not taste the difference?"

Nangong Lu's crying became quieter, and her eyes flickered: "This... I really didn't notice it."

"Dongmei, go and bring the cakes from Linglong Courtyard to my wife and fourth younger sister to taste." Nangong Yue looked at Dongmei and ordered.

"Yes, Miss." Dongmei blessed her body and retreated.

"I didn't say, Second Sister, this kind of pastry uses similar materials and tastes almost the same. What can you eat?" Nangong Qi sneered, and when Dongmei brought the pastry, the evidence of the crime would be confirmed. , when the time comes to see how proud you are?

"The three sisters all said that the materials are almost the same, isn't there some difference?" Nangong Yue glanced at Nangong Qi, she didn't even know she was being used as a gunman, she was really stupid.

Nangong Qi looked at Nangong Yue's beautiful eyes as if they were about to burst into flames: "Don't force your words..."

Dongmei opened the curtain and walked in, with beads of sweat on her forehead: "Second Miss, the cakes are here."

Nangong Yue beckoned to Dongmei: "Bring the pastries to Mother and Fourth Sister."

"Yes, miss." Dongmei blessed her body and brought it to Jiang's side. Jiang and Nangong Lu each took a piece, and Dongmei stepped aside.
