C198 Amalgamation of the Ice and Snow Mystery (Part II)

While thinking about it, Xu Mingwei barely rested for a while, and calculated that it was time to let the Old Lai family pass on the message. Not long after, the Lady Helan did indeed turn around from Wang Clan's side. When the mother and daughter met, they did not say anything, but their eyes had already turned red.

Lady Helan held her hand, her gaze sweeping over her stomach. Seeing that her stomach was almost five months old, and was the same age as Xu Mingbai, he felt a lot more at ease.

"The first born is smaller. In the past few days, have you listened to Lady Jin's words and not randomly ate or drank anything? "

Xu Mingwei's face flushed red, she said: "I ate some food outside today, which I never had before."

Lady Helan smiled and pointed to her nose, "You are finally going to be a mother, and you are still so greedy. Teach kids jokes. "

After Wan Rong came over to deliver some tea, she was caught by the Lady Helan and exhorted, "Go and invite your Master Fang over. Tell her that I'm here and want to meet her."

Wan Rong nodded her head. After inviting people over, Lady Helan dismissed the idle people. She also told Nanny Xue to guard the door to not let anyone near, and even Ju Nan was chased away. Master Fang knew that Lady Helan did not invite her here to drink, so she sat down solemnly.

Seeing that everyone was present, Xu Mingwei narrated the entire situation regarding the cyan plum blossom from the start to the end. Hearing that, both the Master Fang and his face changed color, and she couldn't help but feel hatred towards Fu Ninghui in his heart. It wasn't as if she didn't care about the voodoo Gu skill at all. In the woman's inner chamber, this was the taboo of the first class, it was no different from using a knife to kill someone.

Xu Mingwei did not notice this, and spoke to Master Fang: "Sir, there are two rooms in the student courtyard ahead, I believe you still remember Lv Zhu's sudden death. At that time, the two of them had suffered a staff punishment, but their flesh was still injured and they hadn't died. Unfortunately, the next day, both of them died. Fu Heng secretly requested for a coroner to take a look. On that day, my mother-in-law, Wang Shi, also found a few familiar doctors to look at the medicinal dregs, but didn't find anything strange. "The student told you afterwards that she smelled a strange fragrance in the room. It seems familiar, but it's not the smell of everyone in the room at that time."

The Master Fang nodded and said, "I remember. At that time, I also asked you, which family did you smell it from? "So, this fragrance is the medicinal powder mentioned by Qingmei, and it came from touching the licorice in the medicine?"

The Lady Helan muttered to herself, "For common methods of harming people in the inner chamber, using arsenic aconite would have been fine. Yet, Fu Ninghui was able to find this colourless and tasteless medicinal powder that wanted to kill him. As an unmarried girl, she had a small chance of going out, so where could she get such a rare poison? She must not have known about the rarity of the powder, nor did she know that the doctors prescribed the medicine in peace, or that she even liked licorice, so she recklessly used it. However, it was still a foolish decision. "

After Xu Mingwei heard what the two elders were thinking, she said in a deep voice, "I have a guess as to how she obtained the poison, and who gave it to her. "Earlier, I mentioned that this thing had mixed with licorice and had a strange aroma. I finally remembered where I had smelled it before. It used to be when I was five or six years old, it's been a long time since I last smelled it."

When Lady Helan heard this, she was shocked. At that time, Empress Yan'er had passed away, and the Tianqi was worth the country's loss …

Xu Mingwei nodded at her, then said word by word, "The empress is very sick. When I accompanied Changsheng to see her that day, I could smell this fragrance when I entered the palace. At that time, she had wondered why, in the midst of her serious illness, the room even had a bit of smoke, but she felt that the smell was very strong, unlike what she had smelled in the Longevity Room. "Now that I think about it, it seems like she only had the time to turn around and ask me to be careful of my longevity if she didn't show up in the future, so I didn't have to worry about all these things …" "I just wanted to listen to her thinking about it now, but in reality, it was just a matter of turning around, so the empress summoned me to instruct me to be careful of my longevity."

After Xu Mingwei finished speaking, her eyes a little red. "The Empress might have expected herself to not live very long, that's why she said that. It's just that I still wasn't able to protect my longevity."

The Master Fang consoled, "How old are you? What protection could he get? "Esteemed Empress is only telling you to get along well with Changsheng and not to indulge in the pain of losing your mother."

The Lady Helan comforted her a little and frowned, "If that's the case, this thing should have come from the palace. But when did Fu Ninghui connect with the people in the palace? When you were in the palace, did you see her near any princess? "

Xu Mingwei shook her head, "This first year, everyone was still close. After we finished school, we played together. I don't know what's behind her, but she slowly moved away from me, and started to play better with Yang Jinxi and the others. "

It was as if he didn't say anything. Lady Helan and Master Fang looked at each other and exchanged glances. Only then did Lady Helan say, "There's no rush, since we have a direction, it's much easier to investigate."

Xu Mingwei nodded, and finally remembered that she had some important matters to attend to, so she pulled Lady Helan along and said: "Mother, please let Father know, I'm afraid that this matter will not be simple later on, if used well, it will help Father a little."

The Lady Helan was planning to ask Xu Tiangang to check on the Empress's prescription when she returned. Imperial Physician Liu was from the Duke of Qin's side, so she didn't expect her words to hit on him. She couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "You little girl, how do you know about your father?"

Xu Mingwei laughed, but did not say anything. She was only probing, but she had actually hit the mark. His father Xu Tiangang dared to stand on the Duke of Qin's side, so it was not hard to guess the position of the Xu Family's Sect Leader, Elder Xu, since they were all from the direct line of descent. Actually, one could tell from Xu Mingmei's marriage that the Duke of Qin would not rashly choose to bring her up for marriage without being completely sure.

Since ancient times, the inner chamber of the imperial harem had only been a microcosm of the imperial court.

Master Fang revealed his first smile after entering the room, and said, "She lied to you, the old fox raised a little fox for you, and unexpectedly, you were tricked by the little fox."

A trace of astonishment flashed across Lady Helan's face, and she quickly recovered from her shock. She pinched Xu Mingwei's face and laughed, "It's good that you know about this matter.

Master Fang looked at the mother and daughter pair who were both smiling, and thought to himself, I'm afraid you are also unwilling, so he pursed his lips and did not say anything.

The Lady Helan said, "If you say anything about this, you will lose track of it. From now on, you don't need to chase after him anymore. You, in these days peacefully nourishing the belly, when the birth of a fat white boy, the family will be happy. Your mother-in-law is looking forward to her grandson's achievement, and her eyes are going to turn completely black. "

Speaking to that, Xu Mingwei no longer had a smile on her face, and she said coquettishly, "Why did you say that too, Mother? What if I give birth to a daughter? I've heard that there are some old grannies who, when they heard that they had a daughter, didn't even hug her before rolling their eyes and leaving. "

Lady Helan spat, "She dares!"

Xu Mingwei then burst out laughing, "Mother, the little thing in your hand, the matter of giving birth to a child can't be used. If she was a daughter, she would probably give me a hard time. But you can be assured that your daughter has thought it through, and that won't fool me. "She doesn't want to hug me, so we don't have to steal a child from her."

Lady Helan caressed her hair and sighed. "Your intelligence is so painful when it comes to these things. Why do you only feel humiliated when facing Miss Fu?"

Master Fang laughed and shook his head, "If she was that kind of person, she wouldn't be doted on like you."

When Xu Mingwei heard Master Fang praise her, her face reddened a little, and said, "That little thought of hers was like flipping water, disgusting her. If I were to do the same as her, what's the difference between biting a person with a dog and biting a person with a bite? Either she would die in one move, or she would inevitably get up and jump a few times. It's boring for me to keep going back and forth with her. "

This may seem like a bit of a madonna, but she always believed that the cycle of karma had its rewards, that people were doing it, that the heavens were watching.

The Master Fang also nodded, "If Wei'er marries into the Fu Family, she will lose a battle. Fighting until the end is the best option. The only option left now is to take advantage of the situation and defend."

Lady Helan sighed, "How would I not know. "I just feel sorry for her just by looking at her."

Xu Mingwei laughed, "Mother, don't worry, she won't be able to plan things out with me. This time, she gave me a puppet. I also had someone send a puppet over to bury it under the Qin family's lilac tree. No one told her when she was flipping through the plants. "

"You're so narrow-minded. You really don't have time to save trouble." Lady Helan and Master Fang were so amused by her that they couldn't hold back their laughter.

"Which tree root was it dug out by? Ju Nan or Wei Bao? " Lady Helan asked, suppressing her laughter with great difficulty.

"Ju Nan went in the middle of the night. The Qin family only has a few servants, she can handle them by herself. " Although it was called a puppet, it was only wearing a handkerchief with Fu Ninghui's name written on it.

The atmosphere in the room was lightened by this. The Lady Helan had also instructed her about important matters during her pregnancy and didn't avoid saying that the Master Fang was there as well, "I listened to your mother-in-law's words, but Heng Ge'er is going to stay close to you from now on. "That's not good either. You better be careful not to provoke him and cause trouble for the child in your womb."

Xu Mingwei's face flushed red from what she had said. Being talked about what had happened in her room like this, Xu Mingwei's shame was clear as day.

"Mom, I saved it."

"Best to save. The sun has already set. Your father is still waiting for me to return and speak. If there is anything else in the family, it will be the same as today. If I had sent someone over earlier, it would have taken some time for Mother to arrive. " Lady Helan stood up and said.

Seeing that she was about to leave, Xu Mingwei unavoidably felt reluctant to part with her. Master Fang patted her shoulder and comforted her.
