Chapter 13 Slander

Hearing this, Shen Yuxiang seemed unclear, so she asked: "What does the doctor mean...?"

Dr. Li pondered and asked: "Have you ever felt uneasy lately? Do you often feel depressed?"

Shen Yuxiang nodded slightly, half-leaning on the soft cushion behind her, feeling quite tired.

"The girl may have eaten Xiheliu by mistake. This substance is cool in nature and pungent in taste. Excessive consumption will cause upset and restlessness." Doctor Li said, "But it is not serious. As long as you don't take it again in the future, just

It will take a few days to heal."

Xihe willow...

Standing behind Shen Fengxu, Dansha couldn't help but be startled. Shen Yumin was seriously ill that day, and Dansha personally went out to get medicine. She remembered it clearly, and one of the medicinal materials was undoubtedly Xiheliu.

The eldest lady's brows were deeply knitted, and she glanced at Shen Yuxiang, her expression seemed complicated, but she did not speak.

Suddenly, Caizhi, the maid next to Shen Yuxiang, took a step forward and knelt down: "Madam, this girl didn't eat by mistake. Someone wants to harm our girl!"

One sentence immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"How can I allow you to talk nonsense like this in front of the old lady?!" The eldest lady immediately scolded her coldly.

However, Cai Zhi still knelt down and said loudly: "Of course I dare not talk nonsense, it is Miss Six who wants to harm our girl!"

As the words fell, there was silence in Yunsong Courtyard for a while. The scene suddenly became cold and no one spoke.

A bird landed on a branch in the courtyard, stayed for a moment, and then flew away in a hurry.

Only the old lady looked calm and said: "Doctor Li, please go back first."

Doctor Li knew that there was no benefit in participating in this. He was not used to the intrigues and intrigues in the backyard, so he hurriedly picked up the medicine box and left Yunsongyuan quickly.

Everyone in the room had different expressions, but the person involved, Shen Fengxu, looked as calm as water, as if he had never heard Cai Zhi's words.

Seeing Doctor Li leaving, the first lady spoke coldly and looked at Caizhi: "Slandering the master is a capital crime. Have you thought clearly about it?"

Cai Zhi raised her voice: "Everything that your servant said is true! The sixth girl recently went out to grab some medicine from the Daily Life Courtyard, and among the herbs was Xihe Liu. I don't dare to lie. I only need to ask you to find out."

Seeing Caizhi's words, everyone's eyes fell on Shen Fengxu.

The eldest lady then asked: "Feng Xu, what do you say?"

Chen Fengxu raised his eyebrows in confusion, and turned to ask Xiang Caizhi: "You are the maid of Fourth Sister, not my maid in the yard, how can you know my movements?"

Caizhi choked at first, and then said: "My servant has always been on good terms with Cai Lian in the Rongxue Courtyard. Cai Lian told me about it."

"Since that's what Cai Lian said, let Cai Lian come over first." Shen Fengxu nodded clearly, then turned to look at Dan Sha, "Go and call Cai Lian."

Cinsha did not delay and left in response.

Shen Yuxiang was leaning on the soft cushion, looking delicate and weak. She said pitifully: "Why did Sixth Sister harm me like this?"

"Fourth sister, please don't believe your servant's slanderous words." Chen Fengxu shook his head slightly, "Let's wait for the lotus collector to come over first."

The old lady only fiddled with the Buddhist beads in her hand, with a slightly cold expression on her face. Her eyes wandered between Shen Yuxiang and Chen Fengxu, and finally settled on Shen Fengxu.

It's just that Shen Fengxu has always been as calm as water, with no emotion at all.

The chirping of birds and the chirping of insects kept coming and going in the courtyard, making people feel uneasy.

After a moment, Cinsha walked in together with Cai Lian and Cinsha.

"Girl, my maid has brought someone here." After Dan Sha said that, she turned to look at Cai Lian and gritted her teeth and said angrily, "You still haven't made it clear? If you say something wrong again, girl will definitely punish you!"

Cai Lian seemed to be frightened and a little timid. She only said: "I have served the girl for a long time and have always been loyal to her. Now in front of all the masters, I naturally dare not tell a lie."

Seeing Cai Lian behaving like this, Dansha became even more angry. She raised her eyebrows and scolded: "You are a rip-off! Why are you pretending to be innocent here!"

The eldest lady patted the table: "How outrageous! How can we allow you to be so noisy in Yunsong Courtyard?"

Dansha has always been bold, even if she was scolded by the eldest lady, she was not afraid. She just knelt down, but still said: "Even though Cai Lian was sent by the eldest lady, she is still a girl in the Rongxue Courtyard now. She is not interested in the six

The girl has evil intentions, we must not let her be treated lightly!"

"Is it just because Cai Lian once served the eldest lady?" Cai Zhi said, "It seems that Cai Lian must have received a lot of harsh criticism during these days in Rongxue Courtyard."

"You——" Dansha was extremely angry.

Cai Lian lowered his head, looking increasingly frail, pitiful and helpless.

On the contrary, Cinsha made a loud noise in the Yunsong Courtyard, and was so fierce and aggressive that one can't help but wonder, if it is like this in front of others, how much harsh treatment should Cinsha receive when picking lotus in private?

Therefore, everyone felt sorry for Cai Lian.

Very interesting.

Shen Fengxu was not in a hurry to speak, but just sat there with a faint smile, as if everything that happened now had nothing to do with her and she was just a bystander.

Shen Yuxiang snorted softly again. Upon hearing this, the eldest lady stepped forward and took Shen Yuxiang into her arms lovingly.

"Plucking lotus, did Sixth Sister really use Xihe Liu to harm me?" Shen Yuxiang asked weakly, leaning on the eldest lady's arms.

Cai Lian bit her lip and said: "Yes, I have seen it with my own eyes. These days, Sister Dansha often goes out to get medicine. I was a little strange. The girl is not sick and has no disaster. She goes out to get some medicine. What's more, there is something in the house."

Doctor, why do you need to go out?"

The eldest lady's gaze as sharp as a blade swept over and said: "Feng Xu, mother knows that you have some misunderstandings with Yuxiang, but why did you poison her? She is your sister after all!"

"Does mother condemn her daughter?" Shen Fengxu just smiled gently and said calmly, "Mother, I am just a slave girl, so I can't believe it."

"Sister passed away early. I have always treated you as my biological daughter, but I can't protect you from what happened today." The eldest lady sighed deeply and said, "If you have anything else to think about,

Let’s say it now.”

Such a situation is obviously very unfavorable to Shen Fengxu.

Dansha's face flushed with anxiety and she just looked at Shen Fengxu, hoping she could argue a few words.

Chen Fengxu only turned his head to look at Cai Lian and asked, "Have you finished embroidering the purse I asked you to embroider?"

Not only was he picking lotuses, everyone else was stunned. In this situation, Shen Fengxu actually had the time to ask some unimportant things. Is he ignorant and fearless, or has he resigned himself to his fate and not struggled?

"Not yet... not yet." Cai Lian whispered, "My servant is clumsy, please give me a few days of grace."
