Chapter 695 Poisoning

Su Yueling was quite satisfied watching the excitement through the system.

But she didn't expect that this couple still refuses to give up, and is even willing to spend money to rent a house nearby. This street can be said to be the most secure area in the capital, even a small and shabby yard, a

The monthly rent starts at five taels of silver - ordinary people are reluctant to part with it. And Qian Dong and Liang really paid for this money. When they sold Sheng Nan back then, the money they got was only three taels of silver.

The couple had no profit and couldn't afford it early. If they didn't have a bigger conspiracy, how would they be willing to pay this money?

Thinking back to what they once said, they found a match for Katsuo... I'm afraid the reason lies in this match.

Sheng Nan was the first-class maid beside her. Su Yueling always took her with her when she went out. She had an unusual status in her house. If she didn't get enough, someone would take her fancy and offer a high betrothal gift to marry her. Because she was not sure what Su Yueling would do.

I agreed, so I approached Qian Dong and Liang. After all, these days there are very few children who would undergo incision with their parents. If Sheng Nan had not had no feelings for his biological father and mother, this method might have succeeded.

Su Yueling thought for a while and asked people to keep an eye on the couple. It would be better if she could sneak in with them. She also wrote a letter to be sent to Dingnan Prefecture and asked the elders of the White Lotus Sect in charge of Dingnan Prefecture to investigate the matter.

In the past two years, the White Lotus Sect has been developing in a low-key manner, and because the members of the sect are all women and come from three religions and nine schools, it is even easier to find out information than the government.

However, Katsuo seemed not to be affected by this incident, and even picked out a few patterns for himself and prepared to embroider some purses to pass the time.

Because Shengnan didn't go out on weekdays, and Qian Dong and Liang didn't dare to get too close to the princess's mansion, they could only watch from a distance. The expenses in the capital were huge, and the couple saw money slipping out of their hands day by day.

, but they can't even see their daughter, which makes them extremely anxious. But now they have no other choice but to wait.

During this period, there was also a lively incident in the Cui family.

Yuan Suijun had previously asked someone to mention the fight between Cui Yafeng and several ladies of the Cui family to the ears of the former eldest princess Rong Ying.

Rong Ying, who was being exiled, was furious and wrote a letter scolding her granddaughter and these daughters-in-law.

As a result, before the letter was finished, Rong Ying almost ate food mixed with poison, which scared her so much that she broke into a cold sweat. After the panic, she was filled with overwhelming anger. So she wrote another letter. The new letter was

For the emperor.

Although the emperor announced that Rong Ying would be removed from the royal family, the officials guarding her did not dare to ignore her request, so the letter was sent to the capital as soon as possible.

The Queen Mother called Su Yueling into the palace and showed her the letter.

The Queen Mother sighed with emotion: "The fact that she has the idea of ​​spending all her family property to make up for her mistakes shows that she really has the intention to repent."

Su Yueling read the letter. In the letter, Rong Ying said that she had deeply realized the wishful thinking of her previous thoughts and regretted that she had harmed innocent families. Therefore, she decided to use her property in the capital to build a medical center to provide services to people from poor families.

They see a doctor.

The Queen Mother said: "It is not convenient for me and Xiang'er to go out all the time. We are afraid that the people below will take the money and deceive the superiors and enrich their own pockets. So I think Yueling is used to doing this, so I will leave this matter to you."

You do it."

Su Yueling suddenly realized that it was no wonder that she was asked to enter the palace. She agreed immediately, "This is a good thing, and I am naturally responsible."

Anyway, she now has many capable people, so she can leave this matter to them.

The eldest princess probably didn't want the money to be cheaper for several of her daughters-in-law, and she also wanted to win the royal pity by retreating, so she gave up such a large sum of money.

She asked: "Who poisoned her?" Su Yueling had some guesses about this, but there was no evidence and it was difficult to tell.

There was a hint of disgust in the Queen Mother's eyes, "The person who poisoned committed suicide, and there are no clues for the time being."

Su Yueling said: "Ya Feng and the wives of the Cui family should also know about this matter."

The Queen Mother said: "I have already asked people to invite them into the palace."

The Queen Mother's feelings for Cui Yafeng no longer showed the original sympathy and pity... Although the Queen Mother usually doesn't use her brain very much, there are many good people around her. When people around her reminded her, the Queen Mother also realized that Cui Yafeng was using her to do this.

To benefit herself. If she really wanted to atone for her grandmother's sins, she should spend real money to do practical things instead of doing some insignificant behavior like copying Buddhist scriptures. Especially the other party and Cui Wangshi.

The fact that people were fighting over property made her feel even more uncomfortable.

What she is fighting for is not her own family property, but Rong Ying's. Rong Ying is not dead yet, but these juniors are so unscrupulous.

Because she was annoyed that she was fooled by a junior and misjudged her, the Queen Mother did not summon Cui Yafeng again during this period.

Su Yueling guessed something from the Queen Mother's tone. She held the mug and slowly drank the scented tea.

This mug was specially made by her at the official kiln. Compared with the mugs of this era, she is more accustomed to using mugs.

When the scented tea was almost half drunk, Cui Yafeng and the three ladies of the Cui family entered the palace.

Cui Wangshi, Cui Zhaoshi and Cui Youshi were a little excited. They had been in Beijing for a while, but they had never been summoned by the Queen Mother and the Empress. Today was the first time.

Compared with them, Cui Yafeng was obviously much more uneasy. In the past, every time she sent a post, she always got a reply. This time, there was no news. Cui Yafeng couldn't help but wonder if the Queen Mother was beginning to dislike her. She could now be in Beijing.

It was all because the Queen Mother treated her differently.

Cui Yafeng entered the palace this time and brought over a Buddhist scripture screen that she had made for the Queen Mother. The screen was embroidered with one of the Queen Mother's favorite scriptures. In order to take care of the Queen Mother's eyes, the characters on it were embroidered larger. In order to make it as soon as possible.

Thanks to this screen, Cui Yafeng didn't get much rest during this period of time, and her eyes were as red as a rabbit's.

Mrs. Cui also saw the screen and couldn't help but curl her lips - a flatterer.

When she was at Cui's house, Cui Yafeng spent all day doing embroidery work or going to the kitchen to please her mother-in-law. She also liked to "unintentionally" show her fingers that had been pricked by needles or were reddened in front of her mother-in-law. This made her a patriarchal person.

The young mother-in-law treated her differently and compared the girls in their other houses to dirt on the ground. Now the object of her favor has changed from her mother-in-law to the Queen Mother.

Cui Yafeng bowed respectfully to the Queen Mother, and then greeted Princess Su Yueling. Naturally, Cui Wangshi and others were not left behind.

Cui Yafeng looked at the Queen Mother with admiration and said, "Madam, this is the screen that Yafeng has recently embroidered. If the Queen Mother can use it when worshiping Buddha, Yafeng's efforts will be in vain."

The Queen Mother looked at the screen and said: "There is no need to work so hard. There are embroiderers in the palace, so there is no need for you to do this. It is enough for you to accumulate more virtues and good deeds."

Cui Yafeng only felt that the Queen Mother's words meant something, and she couldn't tell how happy she was. She couldn't help but tremble in her heart.

The Queen Mother's attitude towards her was much colder than last time. Could it be that someone was speaking ill of her in her ears?

Her eyes couldn't help but fall on Su Yueling - was it her?

On the other hand, Cui Wangshi and others couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw this scene. Previously, the royal family had taken great care of Yafeng, both as a house and as a nanny, which made them a little uneasy and they didn't dare to do so during this time.

The pressure was too much. Now they see that the Queen Mother only treats Yafeng indifferently, and it was probably just a superficial effort before, so they feel relieved.

The Queen Mother glanced at each of their faces one by one, "During her exile, someone poisoned Rong Ying's food."
