Xiao Chengyi asked again: "Does anyone else know that you are making ginseng soup?"
Mrs. Liu shook her head: "We decided to make ginseng soup for the third princess on the road when we went out. No one knew."
Xiao Chengyi's brows twitched. Since it was a temporary decision, how could this Codonopsis pilosula be swapped out? Unless the two women were deliberately listening to what they were talking about.
The poisoner used the hands of two women to harm A Lanyi because she couldn't enter the house and couldn't do it herself.
He turned to Qingying and asked: "Has anyone been here today?"
Qingying said: "In the afternoon, Princess Protector came here, but Madam ordered the door to be closed to thank guests, so Princess Protector left the gift and left."
After a pause, he continued: "When the accident happened to the third princess, Princess Protector was also in Dali Temple, saying she was bringing food to Lord Shen.
She left just before the dungeon caught fire, but because the government officials responsible for guarding the dungeon are all dead, I don’t know if Princess Protector has been to the dungeon?"
Xiao Chengyi calmed down and said to Qingying: "Take these two ladies to the Shen Mansion and let them recognize the maids in the mansion."
"yes."
Qingying responded and heard Xin Ruyi's voice not far away: "I'll go back with you."
Xiao Chengyi raised his head, glanced at Xin Ruyi, and called, "Mother."
Xin Ruyi heard that someone was trying to harm A Lanyi and came over to take a look. Just now she heard that Xiao Chengyi was going to take the two women to the Shen Mansion to identify the person, and she knew what he meant.
She came over and said, "Take good care of Alani, and let me investigate the person who poisoned her."
Xiao Chengyi nodded and watched Xin Ruyi leave with Qingying and others before he turned and returned to the room.
Looking at the unconscious person on the bed, Xiao Chengyi felt very regretful. Why was that person so determined to take A Lanyi's life?
Does Alani's life make her so scared?
Xiao Chengyi's heart was a little confused. He sat down in front of the bed, reached out and held Mu Yun'an's hand and murmured: "How long do you want to sleep?"
He had too many questions in his heart that he wanted to ask her and needed her answers.
Shen Mansion.
When Xin Ruyi brought Qingying to the house, she saw the house was in chaos. She looked for a passing servant and asked, "What happened?"
The servant said: "There is a maid who drowned in the lake. She seems to be someone from the princess's yard."
Xin Ruyi's expression changed after hearing this, and she hurriedly led people towards the lake. She saw many people gathered around here, and there was a body lying on the ground. She was a young maid.
Xin Ruyi glanced at the maid on the ground and heard Mrs. Liu who was following behind her saying: "It's her, it's her. She was the one who bumped into me on the street today."
Mrs. Wang came closer, confirmed and then nodded: "Yes, it's her, but why is she dead?"
Hearing this, a look of violence flashed across Xin Ruyi's eyes. She took a deep breath and said to the housekeeper: "Take the body of this maid first."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a gentle voice coming from behind: "What happened?"
Xin Ruyi looked back and saw Shen Wanyue leading the maid over.
When she saw the body on the ground, she was startled and exclaimed: "Zicjuan, what... is this going on? Why is Zicuckoo dead?"
