It was getting late, and Lu Zhiyao was reading quietly in the room. After returning from Lu Yuanzheng's place during the day, Lu Zhiyao did not go to other places, but went directly back to his residence. But regarding Lu Zhiqing's condition, Lu Zhiyao
Still heard some rumors.
It was a quiet night, and it was supposed to be a time to rest quietly, but at this time, Lu Zhiyao was not sleepy at all.
There was a gentle knock on the door. Lu Zhiyao rubbed his eyes and whispered, "Come in."
Yudie, who came as agreed, stood in front of Lu Zhiyao with a solemn expression. Looking at Lu Zhiyao who was smiling and saying nothing, Yudie could not hold his breath. "What on earth did you do?!"
"You should have guessed it, right?" Lu Zhiyao squinted slightly and motioned for Yudie to sit down and talk. "Let's not talk about this first, but I have a few questions to ask you. Yudie, how could you do this?
Do you know the ingredients of mosquito coils?"
"I have followed my mother since I was a child to buy things and deliver groceries to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I often go in and out of the Prime Minister's Mansion. You were often beaten and injured by the Second Madam and the Second Miss. My mother saw how pitiful you were, so she asked us to go to the mountains to collect some herbs and bring them back to you.
But I was worried that what we picked was poison, so I asked people to go to the pharmacy in the city. However, after going back and forth, I often bothered people without buying medicine, and no one in the pharmacy wanted to see me anymore. Fortunately, later
I met an elderly man on the mountain, and he taught me a lot."
Yudie's answer made Lu Zhiyao feel relieved a lot. It seemed that Yudie was not only smart and clever, but also a maid who knew some medical skills.
"Is the second lady's illness really your fault?" Yudie couldn't wait to ask after answering.
"Yes, it's me." Lu Zhiyao changed his denial during the day and said cheerfully: "For a person with skin allergies, it is very simple to prevent her from leaving the house during this season. Your sister made the mosquito coils for me.
Come here, so if you reveal this matter, Wan Yue won't be able to escape, you know it in your heart."
Lu Zhiyao calmly threatened Yudie and continued: "As you said, mosquito coils are made of rosin powder, mugwort powder, tobacco leaf powder, a small amount of arsenic and sulfur. Just a little bit of these things,
Plus other pollen, sprinkle it into the water soaking her clothes and let it sit overnight. For our delicate second lady, these clothes that come into direct contact with her sensitive and fragile skin are fatal. She should thank me, because
The amount I use is already very small.”
"How do you know she has skin allergies? How do you deal with the odor on her clothes?" Yudie frowned in confusion.
"Isn't this easier? After so many years, she has always had the same fragrance on her body, even when she goes to her room. According to her temperament, if she can't stand it, she will definitely keep going
Looking for something better to use on herself, the faint aroma is completely inconsistent with her temper. As for the odor on the clothes, as long as it is dried and smoked with the sachet she usually carries, it can hide the smell from others.
She won't put those clothes on right away, and if they are left in her room for a long time, she won't be able to smell them anymore."
The truth of the matter sent shivers down Yudie's spine. She really didn't expect that Lu Zhiyao, who usually seemed weak, would come up with such a method. Yudie had seen Lu Zhiqing's current appearance by chance. She should have seen it once.
Lu Zhiqing couldn't stand holding it in the house, so she went to the yard to get some fresh air, but she was quickly pushed into the house by Ye Lianrong.
Yudie wasn't standing too far away, so she could clearly see the dense red rashes on Lu Zhiqing's face and neck. As for the parts of her body that couldn't be seen, Yudie thought it wouldn't be much better. Skin allergies are not only
It looks ugly on the surface, and is accompanied by itching and other symptoms. This is definitely a difficult moment for Lu Zhiqing. And it is the season when allergies are easy, and Lu Zhiyao was locked up by his master at that time.
Get up, so who would suspect her?!
"Why did you tell me the truth?" Yudie swallowed, regretting that she was here.
"You asked it yourself, didn't you?" Lu Zhiyao saw Yudie's regret, but unfortunately, she was not ready to let her go just like that. "Yudie, you, your sister and your mother, these years
You’ve always had a hard time in the Prime Minister’s Mansion, right?”
"We are slaves. It doesn't matter whether we are good or not. It's all about fate."
"Really? Then if your sister gets into trouble one day because of her bad temper and is beaten to death by the second lady and second lady, is this also life? My life is not worth anything, you know, your lives are even less valuable.
After all, I still have the surname 'Lu' on my head. Even if they don't want to admit it, I am still a member of the Lu family. But, what about you?"
"What exactly do you want to say? What is the purpose of coming to me?" Yudie stood up alertly, took two steps back, and put some distance between him and Lu Zhiyao.
"Why are you so nervous? There are no outsiders here. I just haven't chatted with anyone for a long time, so I just want to find someone to talk to." Lu Zhiyao shifted his gaze from Yudie and lowered his eyes, not wanting Yudie to have any trouble.
Too much pressure and fear. "Yudi, I just ask you, are you willing to come to me and be my personal maid?"
"Yudie is a slave, and the slave will do whatever the master arranges."
"Very good, I like obedient slaves." Lu Zhiyao nodded with satisfaction, raised his eyes and met Yudie's eyes. "But when you are my slave, you have to understand what you have to do. I will tell you now.
, I have no other purpose, all I want is to get rid of Ye Lianrong."
Yudie took a breath after Lu Zhiyao said this! She looked at Lu Zhiyao who had a calm face with fear, clenching her fists nervously, not daring to take a breath.
"I'm not afraid that you will tell the truth about our conversation today. I believe that no one will believe what you say. Let me tell you again why I want to get rid of her. Because she killed my mother and my brother, so this hatred
, I have to take revenge." Lu Zhiyao told the shocking secret word for word with incomparable clarity. "What do you think Ye Lianrong will do if she finds out that you know this? Your mother and your sister... will
What will happen?"
Lu Zhiyao deliberately dragged himself into the water! Yudie realized something was wrong belatedly, but there was no way out.
"What do you want to do? You are not the eldest lady, who are you!"
"I am Lu Zhiyao, you know it in your heart. I have told you everything I want to do. As long as you listen to me, I can keep your family alive and safe." Lu Zhiyao stood up slowly and approached Yudie.
.The weird smile on the corner of his mouth made Yudie a little scared.
"You, what are you doing to protect us? You can't even protect yourself..."
"Yes, I didn't even have the ability to protect myself before, but now, it's different." Lu Zhiyao forced Yudie into a corner with nowhere to escape, and leaned into her ear, Lu Zhiyao whispered: "
You saw it with your own eyes that day, didn't you? Yuechan and those maids."
"It was you that day?!" Yudie suddenly opened her eyes wide, and the truth of the matter surprised her again and again.
"Yes, it's me. Yudie, I have suffered for so many years just to avenge my mother. I need your help."
Lu Zhiyao said everything he needed to say, so he didn't push Yudie so aggressively. With a sigh, Lu Zhiyao told Yudie that he could leave. But Yudie didn't do what he did just now.
I am anxious to get out of this room.
Yudie was very scared, afraid of what Lu Zhiyao would do if she didn't promise Lu Zhiyao. The matter with the second lady was just the beginning, wasn't it? Yudie didn't even know about the death of the eldest lady and the young master, but Lu Zhiyao
Now that Zhiyao said this, she would not be able to escape from this matter. If she did not participate, and Lu Zhiyao was desperate and told her out one day, the second lady would also execute herself. There is a wolf in front and a tiger in the back.
What should she do?
Yudie thought for a long time, but couldn't think of an answer. She glanced at Lu Zhiyao, who seemed to be in a good mood, with a complicated mood. Yudie lowered her head, walked out of the room slowly, and disappeared into the dark night.
After Yudie left, Lu Zhiyao sat back down and started reading the book. But his heart was not in the book.
Ye Lianrong, Lin Yixiang. From now on, she will get rid of everyone who stands in front of her. She will also take back everything she has lost.
She remembers every face of those who helped Lin Yixiang kill their Xia family, and those who tried to destroy her innocence in the dungeon, and will never forget them.
The reason why Ye Lianrong dares to be so arrogant now is not entirely because she is the second wife of the Prime Minister's Mansion and the only wife of the Prime Minister's Mansion. The bigger reason is probably because of her natal family.
Ye Lianrong's father, Ye Zhihua, is the Minister of Civil Affairs and the second-in-command of the Civil Affairs Bureau. Ye Lianrong's brother is also an official in the Civil Affairs Bureau. The reason why Lu Zhiyao knows this is because she has met Ye Zhihua before, and she also knows,
Ye Zhihua is also a loyal dog beside the prince.
Lu Zhiyao thought, Ye Zhihua has never done anything out of the ordinary in so many years, and he doesn't seem to expect that he will be able to do much in the future. After the prince ascends the throne, will he be able to stop him by making him a minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs?
Mouth, keep his heart?
The Ministry of Personnel has great power. The appointment, removal, assessment, and promotion of officials all go through the Ministry of Personnel. Therefore, although Ye Zhihua is not the one who has the final say, there are still those who want to buy themselves an official position through him. Look at Ye Lianrong all day long
She is so ostentatious, does the prime minister really have that extra money for her to squander? Lu Yuanzheng knows that everyone around him is on the side of the prince, but he still refuses to bow his head. What is the reason for this?
Why is he so worried and embarrassed?
Lu Zhiyao closed the book suddenly, turned off the lights and went to bed. The days were long, and as long as she didn't die, she would have plenty of time to find them out and bring them down. She had picked up this life in vain, and she didn't care if she lost it again.
What she cares about is when she can find out the reason why Lin Yixiang suddenly regretted killing her whole family, and when she can personally kill Lin Yixiang, that beast with a human face and an animal heart.
