The wealthy tycoon wants to be the white moonlight of the little village girl

Before going to bed at night, Jiang Yaonian changed into a dark pajamas and leaned against the head of the bed to read a book.

But no matter how long he waited, Qinghe didn't come.

He couldn't help but lean over and look outside with some surprise, and found Qinghe was embroidering a small piece of clothing seriously.

Jiang Yaonian patted the bed enthusiastically and said, "My wife, why don't you come to bed and rest so late?"

Qing He was busy with her needlework, and said without raising her head, "The clothes Ling Ling is wearing are a little dirty. I want to make a new one for her. I will take her to the garden for a walk tomorrow! You go to bed first, and you don't have to wait for me."

Jiang Yaonian quickly put down the book in his hand, got out of bed, walked to Qinghe, put his arm around her shoulders, and whispered in her ear: "I have to get up early tomorrow to go out for some work, and it may take several days for me to come back. You come and stay with me first. It won't be a problem for the little guy to wear dirty clothes for a few days..." As he said that, he kissed her lightly on the cheek, then took her hand and walked towards the bed.

Qing He followed behind him and said anxiously: "Ling Ling is still waiting..."

Jiang Yaonian interrupted her and said, "Lingling is not as important as me! Madam, you must keep your word. Do you remember what you promised me during the day?"

Qing He said in a dishonest tone, "I don't remember. I was scared by your threats and forgot about it."

"Then let me help you recall it..." Jiang Yaonian said as he lowered the bed curtain, and the tent fell into darkness...

The next morning, Qinghe woke up to find that there was no one beside her. There was only a piece of flowery paper on the pillow, with two lines of words written on it in a flamboyant style: My wife, I was very satisfied with last night, and I hope you will keep up the good work!

Qinghe's face turned red with shame. She quickly hid the flower note and got up to wash.

After breakfast, Qing He took Ling Ling to the deserted garden for a walk. When they were near the pond, they saw Xue Hui walking towards them with a basket. When she saw her, she greeted her respectfully, "Morning, Madam!"

Qing He nodded, glanced at the basket and asked with a smile, "Are you here to pick flower petals for your princess again?"

Xue Hui lowered her head and replied, "Yes."

"Is the princess feeling better today?"

"Madam, the symptoms have eased a bit, but I still can't get out of bed."

At this time, Lingling was sniffing around in the bushes beside the road curiously. Xuehui dodged to the side in panic and kicked it hard, yelling, "Get out of here!"

The little fawn was sniffing the grass with great interest when it was kicked unexpectedly. It immediately screamed in pain!

Qing He's face suddenly changed color, and she hurriedly pulled the rope, then frowned and scolded Xue Hui, "It's not bothering you, why are you kicking it!"

Xue Hui showed a look of disapproval on her face, and she stubbornly argued: "I was just careless, I couldn't control myself for a moment and kicked it lightly, but I didn't kick it!"

Seeing her making such unreasonable arguments, Qing He couldn't help but get angry and said, "Don't bully it because it can't talk and just talk nonsense! If you didn't kick it, would it have barked so loudly? "

A look of contempt and disdain emerged on Xuehui's face. She said, "Whatever the young lady says is what it is! I dare not say anything back! Everyone knows that you have the old lady's support? Even the housekeeper's daughter can be driven away at will, let alone people like us who have no foundation at all! I apologize to you, and I hope you will be magnanimous!" As she spoke, she bowed slightly to Qinghe, then walked away arrogantly with the basket on her shoulder.

Qing He looked at her back angrily, and was very angry! He knew that she was just relying on Jingying's identity to provoke him.

But he couldn't punish her, otherwise he would give people a reason to criticize him and end up in trouble for beating the dog without considering its owner. Jingying came to the Jiang residence to pray for blessings on behalf of the Concubine Dowager!

Qinghe was speechless as her good mood was ruined so early in the morning. She squatted down to check Lingling's injuries and then took it back with a distressed look on her face.

But at noon, the maid Yue'er suddenly came to the other courtyard and said, "Young Madam, the old lady wants you to go to the rose garden for a while!"

Qinghe frowned and immediately realized that something was wrong!

She said nothing and followed Yue'er to the rose garden.

As a result, as soon as she entered the garden gate, she saw that in addition to the maids and old women of the Jiang Mansion, there were also many eunuchs and palace maids at the gate. When everyone saw her coming, they automatically made way for her.

Qing He walked in and found that Madam Jiang was sitting on a chair with a gloomy face. Next to her stood a gray-haired imperial physician and a maid who looked like she was from the palace. Jing Ying lay motionless on the bed with her eyes tightly closed. The maids and servants in the palace were kneeling beside her and sobbing softly...

Madam Jiang slowly said, "Qinghe, did you meet anyone in the garden this morning?"

Qing He stepped forward and bowed respectfully, saying, "Grandmother, I didn't meet anyone except a maid."

Madam Jiang continued to ask, "Do you recognize this maid?"

Qing He lowered her head and said, "I recognize her. She is the maidservant next to Princess Jingying."

At this point, Qing He already knew that it was Xue Hui who had come to complain, but she didn't understand how this matter was related to Jing Ying...

Madam Jiang paused and said slowly, "Someone had poisoned Jingying's medicine. After a careful examination by the imperial physician, it was found that there was something wrong with the rose petals used as the medicine. Someone had put toad venom in it..."

Qing He was stunned, thinking, what does this have to do with me? It's not like I picked the petals for her...

Madam Jiang continued, "But the princess's personal maid Xuehui said that she only picked fresh petals from the garden and there was nothing wrong with it. She just met you on the way back, and she didn't meet anyone else."

Xue Hui knelt on the ground and cried, "I have followed the princess for many years and have always been loyal and attentive to her. I will never have any evil intentions to harm her. I hope the old lady and the maids will make the decision for me..."

Qing He immediately understood why she was so confident in the morning! It turned out that she had set a trap in advance and was waiting for her to take the bait!

Qing He said righteously: "Grandma, although I did see Xue Hui this morning, I did not touch the petals in her basket, and I don't know where the toad venom on it came from. I don't know why she wanted to wrongly accuse me like this, or whether she was instructed by someone to do so, or has some ulterior motive!"

The maid Bing Sui suddenly interrupted and said, "The young lady has always had a bad relationship with our princess, so she naturally refuses to admit it now..."

The old maid scolded, "How dare you be so rude! How could the young mistress poison the princess?"

Xue Hui cried, "Madam Yue, I dare not say anything nonsense, because our princess used to have a close relationship with Young Master Nian, and the young lady has always been dissatisfied with the princess. When she met me in the garden this morning, she stopped me and scolded me for no reason, and wrongly accused me of scaring her deer, and asked me to kneel down and apologize! I was in a hurry to come back and boil medicine for the princess, so I had to do it obediently. Who knew that the young lady also rummaged through the petals in my basket and said that the princess got sick because she didn't accumulate blessings and offended the Bodhisattva, and she wouldn't get better even if she took the medicine..."
