After a while, some diluted liquid was spit out from Shen Ling's mouth until it was all gone. Mu Lingwei kept observing the diluted liquid until a hard object the size of a thumb rolled out of her mouth.
Almost at the same time, the child finally started crying.
Mu Lingwei quickly turned her over and wiped off the residue on her mouth and nose with a handkerchief. After checking, she said: "It's okay. There is a chestnut stuck in the throat and blocking the trachea, so her face turns purple and she is unconscious."
Not awake."
The wet nurse suddenly got up from the ground: "Miss Ling, this slave is really scared to death. Why are you eating so randomly?"
Mu Lingwei suddenly put her foot on the nanny's body, preventing her from getting close to Shen Ling, and said coldly: "Such a small child, such a big hard object has been put into the mouth, wouldn't you know?"
"What do you mean? I really don't know." The wet nurse was in a panic and said, "Miss Ling is very active and has a greedy mouth. I really don't know what she eats."
Mu Lingwei was not afraid of getting dirty and directly picked up the half-cooked chestnuts on the ground. "The ones that came out of her mouth were still hard. This is how you take care of Miss Ling."
Princess Wei also saw the clues and said in surprise: "I understand, what I vomited out was not gruel, but liquid food such as white fungus soup. However, generally the ingredients in white fungus soup will be boiled, and it will never be so big."
There are grains of ingredients mixed in and it’s not cooked yet.”
Although Mrs. Zhang has never read a book, she has given birth to five children. She is also the most careful in taking care of her children. She will never be so careless and give uncooked food to such a young child.
Mrs. Zhang said angrily: "You have always taken care of Ling'er, and you brought her up. You are hurting her like this."
"No slave. Madam, please believe me. I have always tried my best to take care of Miss Ling. Miss Ling also relies on me. How could I harm her?" Nanny Hu still wanted to argue.
Mrs. Zhang softened her heart when she saw Nanny Hu being so sincere.
At this time, Mu Lingwei glanced at the maid who had just gone to report the news. Zhen'er and Shaoyao also "happened" to be standing at the door.
The two girls were very clever, and they already knew what she meant when she put her foot down.
She said: "Mrs. Zhang, this matter is big or small. Can everyone in this room believe it? Someone wants to harm your granddaughter!"
Mrs. Zhang glanced at the maid and nanny, and said: "I can trust you, Lu Zhu is the one who serves me. After Ling'er came, I asked Lu Zhu to take care of Ling'er personally. Nanny Hu also took care of Ling'er when she grew up.
"
She asked again: "Could it really be an accident?"
Mu Lingwei shook her head secretly, no wonder Zhang Zhenniang was so bullied and no family members spoke up for her. It was obvious that there was something wrong with the wet nurse.
Mu Lingwei added: "That's strange, how could Miss Ling spit out such a big hard object? This kind of accident must be too coincidental."
The next moment, Mu Lingwei glanced at Nanny Hu and Lu Zhu again, and said coldly: "Are you trying to harm Miss Ling?"
When Lu Zhu heard this, his face turned green with fright, "How could I harm Miss Ling?"
Suddenly, Nanny Hu kowtowed and said: "Madam, I really don't. I will not harm the young lady. She has been growing up on my milk."
Then he begged: "I have always tried my best to take care of Miss Ling, and I don't dare to be lazy for even a moment!"
She glanced at Mu Lingwei secretly, she was really nosy, she didn't come early or late, but she came at this time.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, Mu Lingwei took out a dagger and put it against the nanny's neck, saying coldly: "Stop talking nonsense to her. If she doesn't tell the truth, she will be killed directly and thrown into the well to feed the worms. Anyway, No one knows."
"You..." Nanny Hu didn't know why she was like this: "This is Zhang's Mansion, not the Prince's Mansion. Why should the Princess hold a knife against me?"
Mu Lingwei did not listen to her explanation, let alone be coaxed by her, and said coldly: "If Lu Zhu hadn't run out to find Mrs. Zhang, Shen Ling would have been choked by the hard object in her throat. It was you who had been taking care of Shen. Ling, why does she keep crying and why doesn't she report to Mrs. Zhang when she cries? What are you worried about?"
"I..." Nanny Hu clutched the hem of her skirt tightly with her fingers: "Miss cried a lot when she was little, so I didn't pay much attention to her."
"Didn't you notice? Shen Ling was often abused by Mrs. Shen, didn't you notice either?" Mu Lingwei said in a deep voice.
"I...I don't know." Nanny Hu said.
Princess Wei also said: "Mrs. Zhang, why did you still let the original wet nurse take care of Shen Ling? Don't you know? Shen Ling was often abused by Mrs. Shen in the past. The Queen Mother couldn't bear it anymore, so she ordered Shen Ling to be taken care of. Sent to Zhang Mansion."
Of course Mrs. Zhang knew, but she didn't know that her granddaughter had been abused. She didn't know until the incident that day became big, but she didn't dare to go out and stand up for her daughter and granddaughter.
At this time, she also pulled Nanny Hu and cursed: "How could you do this to Ling'er? I even gave you extra wages. Ling'er was brought up by you!"
The dagger in Mu Lingwei's hand came closer and she said sternly: "Are you going to tell me?"
The wet nurse was also frightened to death, "Don't kill me, I said."
"It was Grandma Ying who gave me one hundred taels of silver..."
So, the nanny told her the story of how Aunt Ying asked her to harm Miss Ling.
After hearing this, Mrs. Zhang was so frightened that her pupils widened, "Why is she so cruel that she won't even let her child go?"
Princess Wei asked: "Who is Aunt Ying?"
"It's Mrs. Shen's housekeeper." Mrs. Zhang added: "I also thought that Ling'er would get used to being with Nanny Hu, so I invited her back, but I didn't expect..."
Mu Lingwei sneered and said: "It seems that Mrs. Shen wanted to kill everyone and let Shen Ling die in an accident and be buried on the same day as her mother. It is really vicious."
Princess Wei was also very angry: "After all, she is the blood of the Shen family, how can she be so cruel."
But Mrs. Zhang cried and her eyes turned red: "She has always disliked my family's low background. When Zhenniang married Shen Yu, Shen Yu already had two children. They didn't care about Ling'er. It was me who harmed my daughter. She has to marry that beast Shen Yu, it's no wonder that we can't speak in front of the Shen family, they bully people too much."
"Mrs. Zhang, now is not the time for you to cry and complain. The news that Shen Ling is not dead should soon reach Mrs. Shen's ears. She is unwilling to accept that her son is dead and thinks that Zhang Zhenniang is also the murderer. She killed him first I have killed your daughter, and now I won’t even let go of your daughter’s daughter, so you should make plans in advance.”
Mu Lingwei said solemnly: "I'm really afraid that she will send someone to kill Shen Ling again."
Mrs. Zhang was shocked.
"My husband is also afraid of the Shen family. What can we do? I can only send Ling'er away first." Mrs. Zhang sobbed.
Mu Lingwei glanced at Princess Wei again.
Princess Wei understood immediately.
At this time, these words from Princess Wei were even more intimidating.
Princess Wei and Mu Lingwei came today to lobby the Zhang family, hoping that Zhang Yong would not help the Shen family and stop helping the tyrants.
Princess Wei also said: "I heard from my father that General Zhang is also brave and invincible on the battlefield. He is a tough guy with a strong heart. General Zhang is not afraid of the Shen family, but because he thinks Shen Bi has been kind to him. "
"Chen Bi asked Shen Yu to marry your daughter. In fact, he was trying to win over Zhang Yong. However, after Zhang Zhenniang married, she was not welcomed by her mother-in-law. She even suffered abuse from her mother-in-law and did not dare to tell her mother's family. This is the so-called mismatch. No, no matter where you go, it will always be wrong."
"Although Zhang Yong has become a moderate general, he has not been knighted by the emperor. Do you know why?" Princess Wei said solemnly.
Mrs. Zhang didn't know why, but looked at her blankly.
Princess Wei added: "Because all Zhang Yong's military exploits have been plagiarized by the Shen family, General Zhang actually knows this very well, but Zhang Yong's loyalty to Shen Bi doesn't mean anything bad. So I endured it again and again, and finally got married."
"The two families were supposed to help each other, but the lintel of the Zhang family was too low and there was no backer. Empress Dowager Shen was sitting in the court, so Zhang Yong was considered "brave but not wise."" Princess Wei was not polite either.
At this time, Zhang Yong suddenly appeared outside the dormitory, with a gloomy look on his face, "I'll see you, Princess Wei, Princess Anyang."
He had listened to all Princess Wei's words, and glanced at the maid guarding the door. Suddenly, he also saw the clues.
Princess Wei wanted to win over him last time, but this time she came with Princess Anyang.
