Xi Wan Feng made Xia Er bring out the top-ranked ginseng from the palace's storage room, and also took out the good stuff from the layer in his dressing case. The powder that was wrapped up in red paper, and then sprinkled the powder on top of the ginseng from generation to generation, was perfect for doing all of this.
Xi Wan Feng's face distorted and he passed it over to Xia Er: "Go give this to that little bitch Xi Jiu Er, just say that this is a gift from Prince Xian's Mansion." Xi Jiu Er, you are truly lucky! When she was at the Drunken Immortal Tavern, she felt that something wasn't right. Why hadn't she returned for so long? Then each of them would go back to their own homes.
He never expected that Xi Jiu Er would actually return safely. Xi Jiu Er!
"Yes." Xia Er nodded.
Xi Wan Feng's face twisted in excitement, and suddenly shouted to Xia Er: "No, don't say that it was Prince Xian's Mansion who gave it to her, just say that it was Prince Xian who gave it to her." had misunderstood that it was a gift from the Prince Xian, maybe she would eat it.
Xi Jiu Er had silver, what was not good enough to buy? Only a gift from the Prince Xian would be able to dispel Xi Jiu Er's worries. Xi Wan Feng clenched his teeth and snorted coldly. Bitch, that is a poison that can seal one's throat. Just you wait to die.
Looking at Xia Er's leaving figure, Xi Wan Feng's eyes widened. Xia Er was a good servant girl. For a maid like this, she should stay by his side for a long time. But for Xi Jiu Er, she couldn't care less.
Xia Er did not see Xi Wan Feng give the ginseng medicine and knew that Xi Wan Feng was not joking around. For some reason, she felt a sense of unease that made her feel flustered.
After arriving at the Xi Mansion, Xi Jiu Er was not yet in her residence. After waiting for a long while, Xia Er still could not find any trace of Xi Jiu Er, so she asked his subordinate when he would be back. She did not dare to ask Xi Jiu Er about the courtyard, so she caught a servant and asked her about it. That servant had only been here for a short while, how would she know about it?
Xia Er could only wait. Seeing that the sun was about to set, he had no choice but to place the things in the kitchen, reminding herself repeatedly if it was for the Princess Laifu to eat, or the Prince Xian to give it to the Princess Laifu.
The person in the kitchen was busy cooking dinner, and hurriedly nodded his head: "Miss Xia Er, don't worry, we will remember it."
Xia Er nodded and returned to the Prince Xian's Mansion.
The person in the kitchen placed the ginseng to the side after cooking it, and came over after a short while. He asked the old Madame if she had finished cooking, and the old Madame wanted to eat earlier today.
"Alright, alright …" The old lady in the kitchen quickly loaded the Madame with food, "Why is mother of joy here today?" He was usually the maid in the Old Madame's courtyard.
mother of joy laughed: "Since you have nothing to say, come here today." She glanced at the ginseng that was warming up and smelled it. She asked, "Who is this ginseng for?"
"It was cooked for Princess Laifu."
mother of joy was startled, shshethought that the old Madame's health was not good, since she had ginseng, he should let the old Madame drink some too. Therefore, mother of joy asked her wife to get him a bowl too.
The old Madame was in good spirits today. After drinking a bowl, she bled to death in a few blinks of an eye. Mother Xia was so scared that the bowl in her hand clattered to the ground as she screamed, "Someone come quickly, someone come quickly! Go find a doctor, go find a doctor!"
"mother of joy, something happened … "Ahh!" A maid walked in and screamed. He was so scared that he didn't know what to do. mother of joy caressed her eyes and shouted, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and go find a doctor."
"Yes, yes …" The maidservant stumbled to his feet and went to find a doctor.
"Old Madame... Old Madame … " Mother Xia shook the old Madame and became breathless. She was so frightened that she fell to the ground and suddenly thought of something and got the servants to tie up the old steward who was in charge of the kitchen.
The matter of the old Madame having blood flowing out of her seven orifices immediately spread throughout the entire Xi Mansion. If the old Madame died, then there would be no problem at all for her to sit on the seat of Madame.
"What happened to the old Madame?" The moment Third Wife entered, he smelled a bloody stench. Upon entering, he saw the Old Madame lying on the bed with blood flowing out of her seven orifices, her death looked extremely horrifying. Third Wife could not bear to watch, she dared not look, so she turned to ask mother of joy.
"mother of joy, what's going on?" Third Wife asked.
mother of joy looked at Third Wife blankly: "I drank the ginseng I stewed for Princess Laifu... It's all my fault, the old servant thought that the old Madame's body was weak and that drinking the Princess Laifu's ginseng soup was nothing much, so he made a small bowl for the old Madame and in the end … But in the end, it ended up like this for the old Madame … It's all this old servant's fault, it's all this old servant's fault. "
mother of joy had served the old Madame for a lifetime, but he never thought that it was the mother of joy who indirectly caused Old Madame's death. He slapped himself in the face with a look of despair.
The Third Wife was currently in charge of the Xi Mansion, how could she handle such a huge matter alone? Go and find Xi Hong Sheng, and ask him to come back and take over. Xi Hong Sheng just happened to be back at home. Upon hearing that his mother was dead, he ran over to the old Madame's room.
"Master …" Third Wife cried for a long time, his eyes were red and his face was filled with sorrow and despair. When Xi Hong Sheng walked in, he realized that his mother was in a miserable state. His eyes were still wide open even when his eyes were bleeding from all seven orifices, as if he had died with grievance.
"mother!" Xi Hong Sheng called out, the doctor at his side said: "Master Xi, the Old Madame has already left."
"mother!" Xi Hong Sheng immediately cried. A man cried like a child. Third Wife sneered in his heart, why is Xi Hong Sheng crying? Was it really the sad old Madame's death? He was crying for mercy, lest he be called an unfilial son.
"What the hell is going on?" Xi Hong Sheng cried more or less, and her sadness lessened by quite a bit. Did it hurt when the old Madame died? Of course it would hurt, but thinking about it, if the old Madame went to have her dowry, it would be her. The old Madame had a lot of treasures at her hands … Old Madame was already old and had been suffering from illness and pain recently. Although it was bad for her to eat, it was still a form of torture for her. It would be better to just die to save herself from suffering.
"It's like this. mother of joy went to the kitchen to get some food for Old Madame. Seeing that the kitchen was cooking ginseng, he asked for a small bowl for Old Madame. Who would have thought that after the old Madame ate the ginseng, she would bleed from her seven orifices and, within a few breaths, she died. " The Third Wife said: "This ginseng was given to Princess Laifu by him. She went to the heart-nourishing hall to get the medicine but she still hasn't returned yet … The steward of the kitchen does not know. "
Prince Xian? Xi Jiu Er? Toxic Ginseng...
knew what kind of medicine was in the gourd after a series of attacks. Xi Wan Feng, it must be her. Even if she had married to the Prince Xian, she had been dealt with very miserably by Xi Jiu Er, so her reputation was pretty much gone.
Xi Wan Feng wanted to take care of Xi Jiu Er in one move. It was a pity that the world was unpredictable and Xi Jiu Er was destined to escape this calamity. It was a pity that the old Madame was set up by her own granddaughter just like that.
"Abominable — — Let's go, we will go to Prince Xian right now, and demand justice from our mother." Xi Hong Sheng said aggressively as he led his servants to look for Prince Xian.
When Xi Wan Feng, who had always been paying attention to the movements of the Xi Mansion, heard that the Xi Mansion was dead, he could not gather any information no matter how he asked. She was so happy that she almost sang a song.
"Esteemed wangfei, His Excellency Xi has brought someone here …" Xia Er's face was very white, she had a faint premonition of something. In his heart, however, he comforted himself. No, no, he would be fine.
"Is that so? I am definitely here to avenge this little bitch Xi Jiu Er. Go, invite my heartless and heartless father in. " Xi Wan Feng's entire being could be considered to be blooming in the spring.
"Father …" Before Xi Wan Feng could say anything, he was slapped across the face by Xi Hong Sheng: "Unfilial daughter, you actually poisoned your Grandmother?"
"mother, why can't I understand what you're saying?" Xi Wan Feng's head exploded with a boom. What dead man? Could it be that the one who died wasn't that bitch Xi Jiu Er, but the old Madame? Impossible, impossible.
"Your Grandmother ate the ginseng you gave to Jiu Er, and she bled herself to death from all seven orifices. How do you explain that?" In the end, Xi Hong Sheng was still Xi Wan Feng's father, and he knew what his own child's nature was. Prince Xian Mu Qiu Shui would never do such a thing, it would not benefit either of the two families.
Only Xi Wan Feng, Xi Wan Feng hated Xi Jiu Er, he knew the answer, but as the manager of Xi Family, of course he would like it when he has a big use for it. Xi Wan Feng marrying to the Prince Xian made him have a whole new level of respect for his daughter. However, all of the things that happened afterwards caused the Xi Family to lose all face.
He started to hate this daughter of his.
"Father, you … you misunderstand. Your daughter did not do that." Xi Wan Feng stuttered, his eyes shining: "Maybe it was Little Sister Jiu Er who did this?"
"Bullshit." She hasn't come back from heart-nourishing hall yet, how could she drug your mistress? And that ginseng of yours, I've never even taken it out from the kitchen. That old woman from the kitchen has been in the Xi Family all her life, and there are 30 or so people in her family. She wouldn't be so stupid as to kill people. " Xi Hong Sheng enunciated each and every word, "Xi Wan Feng, you're actually so vicious."
"Father... You, you listen to my explanation... I, I really don't know anything. I just bought the ginseng and had the maidservants deliver it to her. I never thought that there would be poison inside, I really never expected that. " Xi Wan Feng began to defend himself. If she was found guilty of murdering the old Madame, then she would become the unfilial granddaughter of the capital. She would be scolded by tens of thousands of people.
No, she would not accept this.
"Is that so?" Of course, Xi Hong Sheng would not believe that the First Lady was not a good person. Although she had always been obedient to her duty, some things had given Xi Hong Sheng a severe psychological trauma, one where she was bitten by a snake for ten years.
"Father, you have to believe me …" Xi Wan Feng pleaded, "What good is it to me for me to do this? I don't like Jiu Er, but Jiu Er is my sister after all.
