Chapter 730: Someone Is Coming! Come Here, Are They All Dead?
When Xingguo Gong Shao Jing returned home, he went directly to the Xinning Courtyard of his wife. Hearing that Mrs. Xingguo had returned to her own Yingyue Courtyard, he took his people and came directly to Yingyue Courtyard.
In the main room, Mrs. Jiang, the wife of Duke Xingguo, was lying on the bed. She took some medicine and felt better. Only then did she think about today's events.
Aunt Sheng is her right-hand man, and can be said to be the most trusted person around her. Now she has to cut her off, how can she feel comfortable in her heart?
Her interactions with the concubines in the palace were usually through Aunt Sheng. Now that Aunt Sheng is dead, who should she contact next?
Is the poison given by Concubine Shu related to what happened in the palace before? Mrs. Xingguo frowned. She also had complaints about Concubine Shu. She just wanted a chronic poison that was common and effective and difficult for others to find. Why did Concubine Shu give her such a conspicuous poison?
Doesn't this push her to the forefront?
The current situation was very difficult to handle. She originally thought that something had happened to her, and it happened after the meal, so she would inevitably investigate the meal incident, but it was impossible to investigate herself immediately.
As long as things slowed down a bit, she would ask Aunt Sheng to find another place to destroy the oiled paper.
Unexpectedly, instead of checking the canteen, they checked her directly, even behind the ancestral hall, so that she was confused for a while and had to push Grandma Sheng out. This was actually the last resort.
Although the crisis is over for the time being, the contact with Concubine Shu has been lost for a while. Something unexpected happened to me, and I can't notify Concubine Shu quickly. How can I not make her anxious.
Who should I regard as my closest confidant next to deal with such extremely secretive matters around me? Jiang couldn't think clearly for a while.
Suddenly I thought of Shao Yanru's behavior again, and I was filled with resentment. This daughter of mine actually had no intention of helping me at all. If she had said a few more words just now that this matter was related to that bitch Shao Wanru, I couldn't explain it and could think of it. What a good way to put the blame on that bitch.
But what to do now?
She was really unwilling to let Shao Wanru escape like this. She came out of the ancestral hall. She was always the victim now. It was impossible for Duke Xingguo to watch her being killed again in the ancestral hall. This was what she had expected. .
But her body was also injured. She felt really uncomfortable just now, which was also the main reason why her face was so pale before.
At this time, even after taking medicine and feeling a little better, I still feel cold all over, my chest feels tight, I feel nauseous in my throat, I feel like I can't spit it out, and I can't swallow it. I can't settle down enough to come up with an idea.
The door was suddenly kicked open, and the round, chubby Duke Xing Guo burst in with a cold and angry face.
The maid waiting beside the bed turned pale with fright and was about to step forward to salute.
"Get out!" Duke Xingguo waved his hand, and the maid didn't dare to say anything. She ran out of the door at a trot and closed the door for them.
Duke Xingguo walked to the bed and looked at Mrs. Duke Xingguo with a cold look. She could not help but avoid his gaze and shouted: "Master Guo!"
This sentence seemed to wake up Duke Xingguo. He reached out and grabbed Jiang's collar, lifted her out of the bed and threw her to the ground.
Jiang didn't expect that Xingguo Guild would actually take action, and was thrown out. Her body hit the table leg on one side hard, and she shrank in pain.
The cups and teapots on the cups were knocked off, and one of them broke beside her. The fragments flew over and scratched her face, causing her to cover her face subconsciously in pain.
When he put down his hand, he immediately noticed blood stains on his hand and screamed in fear.
Duke Xing Guo seemed not to have seen Jiang's suffering, and stared at Jiang with cold, snake-like eyes. There were no outsiders at this time, and he had no intention of pretending.
"Okay, you dare to poison yourself, do you want to die? Just tell me if you miss, and I will strangle you to death right now!" Duke Xingguo said, reaching out, lifting Ms. Jiang up, and pushing her to the edge of the bed. Both hands came down together and pinched her neck hard.
Jiang kicked and beat Duke Xingguo wildly with her hands and feet. Her eyes were full of anger and anger, and the feeling of suffocation in her neck not only made her speechless, but also made her almost unable to breathe, and even made her head feel dizzy.
She saw murderous intent in Duke Xingguo's eyes, murderous intent without any cover-up!
Struggling hard and getting out of this predicament, she will naturally survive. She can't die like this. Her daughter will be the queen. She will be the queen's biological mother, looking down on all the imperial wives from above.
As soon as her neck was loosened, Ms. Jiang gasped for air. Her throat hurt, and her chest felt like needles pricking her. But all this also made her know clearly that she was not dead, she was still alive.
Tears fell one by one, and she tried to calm her breath before looking up at Duke Xing Guo, who was looking at her with a sinister look on his face.
This is her husband, but right now he is just looking at her sadness coldly, and even the sadness she felt just now was caused by him.
Her chest felt tight, her throat felt fishy, and she spit out a mouthful of blood, which dripped onto the clean carpet in front of her. The plain carpet was immediately contaminated.
"Jiang Wanyan, do you think you are so smart that no one else knows what you have done? You drugged yourself! You even got Aunt Sheng into it." Duke Xing Guo seemed not to notice the blood on the corners of her lips. , said with a sneer.
"I...I can't help it. If I had the option, would I be like this? I drugged myself. It was myself who was hurt. Now I have hurt my body!" Ms. Jiang burst into tears. She was in Mrs. Tai's yard before. She was pretending to cry, but she was really crying at this time. Her heart was filled with grievances.
"If I enter the ancestral hall, what good will it do to Ru'er? Ru'er is about to enter the palace for the draft. If people know that her mother is locked up in the ancestral hall, how will you let others see her? How will you let the Queen see her? How could she get the position of concubine? I had to come out of the ancestral hall to help her, but you...but you turned a blind eye to me. If I hadn't been forced to do this, how could I have done this to myself? !”
Jiang was crying and coughing, and blood was dripping down the corners of her fresh lips, looking extremely miserable.
It was helpless that she was so disgusted in the eyes of Duke Xingguo. They had been husband and wife for so many years, how could they not know that Jiang was the best at putting on pretense.
Thinking back on that day, he actually felt good about marrying this cousin, but today he is full of regrets. No matter who he married at that time, it would be better than the Jiang family now, at least it would not hold him back.
"Why don't you die? If you die, Ru'er might still have a dead mother!" He raised the corners of his lips mockingly.
This smile was so chilling that the hairs all over Jiang's body stood up. She knew that Duke Xingguo was really angry. Even if she had some courage in the past, she didn't dare to offend him now.
"Master Guo, if I really die, Ru'er will not be able to participate in the draft, and he will have to observe mourning for me for three years. If it weren't for Ru'er, I would actually be willing to die."
Jiang cried loudly.
What she said was the truth. If she died at this time, both her children would have to observe filial piety. This time is different from the past. No one knows what will happen after missing three years.
"You can take care of yourself!" Duke Xingguo knew that what she said was right, but seeing her getting more and more angry, he turned around and walked out with a flutter of sleeves, ignoring Jiang who was lying on the ground covered in blood.
This incident not only triggered things in his own backyard. Someone from the Criminal Department came to ask questions before. He had to take care of some of them to prevent the people from the Criminal Department from discovering other things in his house!
"Here come, come here, are they all dead! Why don't you come in quickly..." After Duke Xing Guo left, Jiang's mad and somewhat hysterical shouting came from the main room, scaring everyone outside. The maids and mothers-in-law all looked at each other and didn't dare to go in for a while.
In the end, two more confidant maids walked in cautiously...
The red plum blossoms in the yard were blooming well. Shao Wanru asked Yujie to go to the garden holding an empty beauty vase to plant some beautiful red plums.
I just went all the way and didn't see anything satisfactory.
Fortunately, there were no other people admiring the plum blossoms at this time. Shao Wanru walked around among the plum trees freely, looking at the plum branches he selected from different angles!
Wait until the left and right sides feel good, then take it off.
So far, I have only picked two.
Something happened in the palace about Duke Xingguo's wife, and everyone seemed to be quiet all of a sudden. Aunt Xi has not come back yet. She must have been left in the palace by the Queen. Without Auntie to educate them, the young ladies can't. Everyone stayed in their own yards and didn't come out. With such a big incident happening, no one was in the mood to go out to the garden.
This was an advantage for Shao Wanru. She really didn't want to see Shao Yanru's hypocritical face. She always wore a false and hypocritical face on her face. It made people laugh at it, and it would not ruin her own good. Feeling.
"Miss, can't we find out what happened to Grandma?" Yu Jie saw that Shao Wanru was really picking plum blossoms with all her heart, and after a while, she finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"Of course I can find out some, but I don't know how much!" Shao Wanru said leisurely. All she can do is lead people to the palace. What will happen to the palace next is not hers. Kissed.
"What will happen?" Yujie asked uneasily.
"What can I do? I heard that the illness is not serious. I invited several doctors to come over before. Even the imperial physician in the palace was alarmed!" Shao Wanru said calmly, alarming the imperial physician in the palace and explained. Jiang was not pretending this time.
"Will you find out that she did everything?"
"It will be discovered, but the person who discovered it knows about it, but it is difficult for her to get well now!" Shao Wanru smiled slightly, and stood on his toes to pick a plum blossom that he liked.
Although the poison was chronic and was discovered early, it was impossible for Mrs. Jiang to feed herself a lot, but the poison was actually very overbearing and it was not easy to diagnose and treat, otherwise it would not have been used in the palace.
She picked the plum blossoms off and looked around. Sure enough, they were good. She turned around and inserted them into the vase in Yu Jie's hand. Suddenly a figure flashed in the corner of her eyes. She turned her head again and looked at the pavilion deep in the plum forest. Is there anyone there? And you were still looking at her just now?
