Chapter 192 Poisoning in the Well

Yan Ling'er smiled and said, "Sister Liu, isn't she depressed these days?" She didn't want to put everyone in a bad mood because of her, so she deliberately ignored what happened not long ago.

"It's not bad!" Liu Qiqi said, pretending that she was really fine. After saying that, she started to talk about what vegetables she would go to the market to buy later. Everyone laughed when they heard this.

After a while, everyone felt that it was getting late, Yan Ling'er left in a hurry, and Liu Qiqi also had something to do, so they quickly left Yipin Tea House.

After Liu Qiqi left, she took her three maids with her and went to the market first, and then to Prince Jin's Mansion.

She was worried that going to Prince Jin's Mansion would put her in a bad mood and affect her shopping mood, so she went to the market first.

Wait for a few people to arrive at Jinwang's Mansion carrying a few baskets.

Shao Nianqing and others have been waiting for a long time.

Everyone was surprised when they saw the Crown Princess coming back in this outfit. Under the leadership of Shao Nianqing, they all saluted.

Liu Qiqi said a few simple words and let them all disperse. She took the three maids back to Qingyu Pavilion, put down the purchased ingredients first, and then went to Jiuyang Garden where Tang Xiaoyue once lived.

All the trees in Jiuyang Garden were cut down, their roots were dug out, and all the furniture in Jiuyang Garden was given away.

The whole yard is empty.

Liu Qiqi regretted that she had not given away Tang Xiaoyue's things.

Nowadays, you can also find the place where the furniture was given away. If there is too much noise, it may not be a good thing.

Liu Qiqi stood in the yard and looked around, then came back to the house and looked around.

The four walls of the house are the reflection of what is before our eyes.

When Liu Qiqi left, Shao Nianqing came over and said, "Slave, please see the Crown Princess."

"Mrs. Shao!"

Shao Nianqing came to the front and said, "Three days ago, the queen's eldest maid, Xiyu, came over and found out about Shi Qiuxin's death."

"What did she say?"

"Xiyu was surprised to hear this, but she didn't stay long and left quickly. Before she left, she asked not to tell anyone about Shi Qiuxin."

Liu Qiqi understood Xiyu's thoughts and nodded without saying anything.

"Princess, Gu Ling discovered this." Shao Nianqing said, taking out a small bottle from his sleeve.

"This is?"

"Gu Ling pretended to be a ghost in Jiuyang Garden to scare people. The slaves punished her to find out the reason why the trees in Jiuyang Garden died. Later she discovered this in Jiuyang Garden."

Qingdai stepped forward, took the small bottle over, took a look at it, and immediately closed the lid the moment she opened it.

"What's wrong?" Liu Qiqi saw Qingdai's expression and felt something was wrong.

"Princess, you are poisoned by this kind of poison."

Liu Qiqi wanted to take it in her hand and look at it, but Qingdai stepped back and dodged it, "Princess, no, the poison is very strong. The princess is in good health, so she must not take risks again."

Liu Qiqi did not insist and asked Shao Nianqing, "Do you know where you found it?"

"In the house." Shao Nianqing said, taking Liu Qiqi into the bedroom, and found a wall that was different from other places in the corner where the bed was originally placed.

Shao Nianqing pushed it gently, and a hole appeared in the wall, which could just fit the small bottle just now.

"How did Gu Ling find out?"

"My slave will keep her here for three days."

Liu Qiqi thought for a moment, some people may not have discovered this even if it took ten days, not to mention three days. How did Gu Ling discover it?

The poison Tang Xiaoyue used was the same as the poison in the hands of the Queen Mother.

The poison belonged to Concubine Wu, and Concubine Wu framed Concubine Qin. According to this logic, are Tang Xiaoyue and Concubine Wu connected?

Liu Qiqi felt that she could not ignore Gu Ling.

Liu Qiqi knew that returning to Prince Jin's Mansion might not be easy.

The matter was not resolved, but I came back feeling depressed.

When leaving the Prince Jin's Mansion, Liu Qiqi was in a bad mood. She tripped over her skirt when she walked out. It was a minor incident at first. Chunbi also saw it and gave her a hand at the right time. Liu Qiqi didn't pay much attention to it, but because of this action, she saw that she was in trouble.

I saw a sneaky figure next to the big tree on the roadside opposite Prince Jin's Mansion.

Who is that person?

Hiding on that side, it was obvious that he was looking over. At the moment when he looked over, was he intentionally dodging?

Is someone following me?

Thinking about it, when Liu Qiqi went to the palace, she paid special attention to what was going on behind her. Until she returned to the palace, she noticed that the person behind her was following her.

After Liu Qiqi entered the palace, Yudai thought she had forgotten something at the Jin Palace and asked Chunbi and Qingdai to take the princess back. She would go back to the Jin Palace first.

Liu Qiqi understood that this was just an excuse, and she should have discovered it too.

Back in the East Palace, Liu Qiqi asked Chunbi and Qingdai to prepare cooking, and she came to the swing.

Swinging gently, as she secretly exerted force, she swung higher and higher.

With different heights and different horizons, the things you see will also be different.

Quiet and undisturbed, Liu Qiqi thought a lot.

Thinking about one thing that happened, it didn't seem to be related. As more and more things happened recently, she found that everything happening around her was inextricably connected.

Just as I was thinking about it, Yudai came back.

Yudai came to the yard, looked around, and walked directly towards Liu Qiqi.

"Princess, on our way back, someone was following us, and I discovered that we had entered Prince Yan's Mansion."

"How did you find out that someone was following you?" Liu Qiqi asked.

"I didn't pay attention at first. I saw the Crown Princess looking behind her several times, and then I noticed it." Yu Dai replied.

Liu Qiqi knew that Yi Yudai was keenly aware and should have discovered it a long time ago, but this maid was clever enough to blame this matter on herself, which showed that she had a high emotional intelligence.

With such a person by her side, Liu Qiqi feels much more at ease.

"Who do you think it could be?"

"If you enter Prince Yan's Mansion, you should be someone from Prince Yan, or maybe Princess Yan."

Liu Qiqi suddenly thought of someone, Sun Rumei.

Sun Rumei once lived in Prince Jin's Mansion and was familiar with everything in Prince Jin's Mansion. Sun Rumei also had a mouse hole in Prince Jin's Mansion. So, it is very likely that this matter has something to do with Sun Rumei.

After thinking for a while, Liu Qiqi told Yudai, "Just like when you return to Prince Jin's Mansion, tell Shao Nianqing that if anything happens, ask someone to report it immediately."

"Yes." Yudai left again.

After Qingdai and Chunbi prepared lunch, they didn't see Yudai, thinking that Yudai hadn't come back yet.

They served Liu Qiqi to eat. After the meal, Liu Qiqi took a lunch break.

Just after waking up and washing up, Yudai walked in hastily from outside.

Liu Qiqi's heart skipped a beat.

"What's wrong?"

"Princess, Shao Nianqing is injured."

"What's going on?" Liu Qiqi stood up suddenly.

According to the prince's cautious attitude, he would not leave the Jin Palace and be lax about the Jin Palace. He should still send people to guard the Jin Palace. Why was Shao Nianqing injured? Liu Qiqi always felt that something was going on.

"Shao Nianqing discovered that someone was poisoning the well in Prince Jin's Mansion. Shao Nianqing stepped forward to stop him. The opponent was extremely skilled in martial arts. Was he injured during the fight?"

"How is Shao Nianqing?"

"I've asked the doctor to come over, it's okay."

"Where's the poisoner?"

"He ran away, but someone was already chasing him. When the slave came back, there was no news."

Liu Qiqi opened her mouth and wanted to say, with so many people in Prince Jin's palace, didn't they hear the news and go to help? Or, the people arranged by Prince Jin in the dark were just fake. She also thought about what Yu Dai said about someone chasing her, so she obviously had other plans.
