The Lady's Code for Raising Her Husband
Chapter 449 Who stole the lotus white
Chapter 449
Ordinary flying insects are naturally not as organized and orderly as Lotus White, and they will recognize their own home. Ye Yuxiao took the bamboo tube and took a look, and found that it was indeed empty.
She weighed the bamboo tube and said with certainty: "This is not the bamboo tube filled with lotus white. That bamboo tube is heavy to start with, and it should have been soaked in a special potion and has a faint herbal fragrance."
"My slave also found out." Xiao Zuan said with a sad face.
"So, the person who transferred the package took away the bamboo tube together." After Ye Yuxiao finished speaking, he asked Xiaozhan, "Who did you come into contact with on the way home?" Xiaozhan composed himself and said: " Zhuo Qiao sent the slave out of Huaiyuan Post, and the slave got on the carriage and went straight back to the house without contacting anyone on the way and the carriage never stopped."
"So..." Ye Yuxiao raised her index finger and tapped the bamboo tube, "From Huaiyuan Station to our house, you only had contact with Zhuo Qiao?"
Yes, Zhuo Qiao also counts. Xiaozhan nodded, but then said: "But it's definitely not Zhuo Qiao."
"Why is it definitely not Zhuo Qiao?" Ye Yuxiao asked.
"Zhuo Qiao is Mrs. Zuo Shanggong's personal maid. She is more nervous about Mrs. Zuo Shanggong's illness than anyone else. How could she steal Lotus White?" Xiaozhan said without thinking, "It's just like a slave. A slave will steal it for you." Is it a magical thing that you use to cure diseases? It certainly can’t be the case.”
This is probably a characteristic of people who came from Pingnan Palace. They are not used to thinking the worst of people when things happen.
Ye Yuxiao shook the bamboo tube at Xiaozhan: "Where did the lotus go? Did it disappear out of thin air?"
Xiaozhan was speechless. It is impossible for Lotus White to disappear on its own. The only explanation is that they were tricked by Zhuo Qiao.
"Don't be in a daze." Ye Yuxiao threw away the bamboo tube and patted Xiao Zuan's head, "Think carefully whether Zhuo Qiao did anything unusual when he sent you off to Huaiyuan Station."
What an unusual behavior... Xiaozhan touched the place where Ye Yuxiao had photographed him, thought carefully for a while, and said hesitantly: "When I was going down the steps, I accidentally tripped and almost fell. At that time, Zhuo Qiao was there to help me - Madam, is this an unusual move?"
She didn't know if this was an unusual move, but when she couldn't find the answer, eliminate all possibilities, and the last remaining one must be the truth. Ye Yuxiao nodded slowly: "The person who stole Lotus White is probably this Zhuo Qiao."
Xiaozhan was extremely surprised and couldn't believe it: "She is the maid of Mrs. Zuo Shanggong. Doesn't she hope that Mrs. Zuo Shanggong will recover soon? Why did she steal the lotus in vain?"
Ye Yuxiao couldn't help but slap her brains out: "Xiao Zuan, people's hearts are evil, so what about personal maids? Not everyone's personal maids are loyal. In the future, there may be traitors around me, you can do it It’s better to be more thoughtful.”
The rules of Mrs. Ning Hui's Mansion are the same as those of Prince Pingnan's Mansion. They are usually very loose, but once they make a mistake, they will be punished by military law. If they make a big mistake, they will be punished even if they make a big mistake, and all the parents in the family will suffer as well. In such an environment, who dares to have a different intention? Anyway, I haven't found it yet.
However, she really should have been more discerning. If she hadn't been careless, how could Zhuo Qiao have changed the bamboo tube? At this moment, Xiaozhan even thought of committing suicide to apologize, and knelt down with a bang: "Madam, it's all my fault, please punish me!"
"It is indeed worthy of punishment. The bamboo tube was switched without realizing it. This is a matter of ability. I don't blame you. But after the incident, you took it for granted that Zhuo Qiao was a good person. This is unreasonable." Ye Yuxiao knocked on Xiaozhan "I will punish you by memorizing "Sun Tzu's Art of War" until you are familiar with it, and you can explain the meaning of each article."
If you don’t beat or scold her, punish her for endorsement? What kind of punishment is this? Xiaozhan was stunned and nodded.
"But now we don't have time for your endorsement. We have to find Lotus Bai first." Ye Yuxiao said as he walked out.
Xiaozhan quickly followed: "Madam, where are you going?" "Since we believe that the person who stole Lotus White is Zhuo Qiao, we naturally have to find her owner." Ye Yuxiao said.
Whose maid is responsible, and she has no intention of solving this matter alone.
There are always a few fast horses in front of the gate of Mrs. Ning Hui's house. This was arranged by Ye Yuxiao because she was worried that there might be an emergency sometimes. At this time, these horses came in handy. She and Xiaozhan took two horses and galloped to Huaiyuan Post.
In Huaiyuan Post, Huyanmu and his wife were in high spirits. They were still eating wine and enjoying singing and dancing. However, Mrs. Zuo Shanggong never took off her hat.
And Zhuo Qiao was standing behind Mrs. Zuo Shanggong.
Ye Yuxiao could conclude that Lotus White was no longer on Zhuo Qiao, otherwise those little things would have hit the bamboo tube and made a noise if they were so close to Mrs. Zuo Shanggong.
Hu Yanmu and his wife were very surprised to see Ye Yuxiao come back.
Mrs. Zuo Shanggong got up with some drunkenness, went to hold Ye Yuxiao's hand, and said with a smile: "Xiaoxiao must be reluctant to part with our Wujie's singing and dancing, and Wujie's wine, that's why she came back."
"Yes, Fishing Girl, how do you know that?" Ye Yuxiao held her hand and followed her words, "I was halfway there when I suddenly remembered that my grandfather loved Wujie's wine the most, so I added I turned back and wanted to ask you for a few bottles."
"Is such a trivial matter worthy of your special trip?" Mrs. Zuo Shanggong said angrily, "Just send someone to tell you, and I will deliver it to you."
"My grandfather is picky and only drinks one of them, so I have to choose it myself. Don't think it's troublesome for me." Ye Yuxiao said with a smile.
"Even if I think A Mu is troublesome, I won't think you are troublesome." Mrs. Zuo Shanggong took Ye Yuxiao's hand and walked out, "I will take you to the room, you can choose it yourself. If you want to get a bottle, Which bottle, you can just move them all."
Zhuo Qiao followed closely, and Ye Yuxiao waved to her: "You can stay, I'm just picking out the wine, I don't need you to serve me."
Zhuo Qiao looked at Mrs. Zuo Shanggong. Mrs. Zuoshangong turned to her and said, "Mrs. Ning Hui's words are my words."
Zhuo Qiao put his right hand on his chest, made a Wujie salute, and stayed where he was.
Mrs. Zuo Shanggong brought Ye Yuxiao into the room, opened the cabinet, and showed her the wine bottles: "It's a long way from Wujie to Daxi. We were worried that the porcelain bottles would break, so we replaced all the wine bottles with silver ones." .”
Ye Yuxiao casually took out a bottle of wine and looked at the red mud on the cork: "Yu Gu, I have to tell you something. The lotus white worm I used to detoxify you was tampered with. The person who transferred the contract is probably the maid next to you, Zhuo Qiao."
"Xiaoxiao, what are you talking about?" Mrs. Zuo Shanggong's voice was full of confusion and doubt.
Ye Yuxiao had no choice but to speak more bluntly: "The Gu insect was stolen by Zhuo Qiao, and your poison cannot be cured."
"What?!" Mrs. Zuo Shanggong seemed to have just woken up. She took off the curtain hat on her head and threw it to the ground with a snap.
