"Grandmother, father, this woman, collude with the maidservants in my courtyard and elder sister's house and feed me knockout drugs. Then stuff the incense into my room. She wants to, she wants to be my …" Lian Meng was extremely angry as he pointed at the Xiao family.
"What …" When her mother heard this, she immediately felt dizzy and looked toward the Xiao family. "You, you actually dared to secretly harm your son!"
When the Xiao family's old mistress heard this, she quickly kneeled down and said, "Old madam, please understand. This is the young mistress's maid. She has followed by Eldest Miss's side for so long. Why … why is it my fault?"
She was worried that the incense would go to Lian Ruyue's side to protect her life, so she said, "Now that such a thing has happened, it would be better to just settle the matter peacefully and accept this maid as the young master's concubine. This is someone from the young miss's room, if word of this were to spread, it would ruin our young master's reputation."
"This is the condition that you and Chen Xiang agree on. You must think of a way for her to become the concubine of Lian Fu, which will ruin my reputation. Then, you can make Chen Xiang your man, and in the future, work for you!" Lian Ru Yue stared at the Xiao family as she walked closer and closer to her. "Unfortunately, your plan didn't succeed because Ji'Er didn't drink that bowl of soup. He is still as innocent as ever."
"This... My apologies, young miss. Your own servant did not care about me, so why are you blaming me? This has nothing to do with me. " Mrs Xiao retreated two steps, her hand clutching the door frame behind her as she tried to deny it.
"You still dare to quibble? You still dare to push the blame onto your elder sister! Grandmother Tai, bring the person out!" His eyes were cold, and his face was no longer that of the young man with the jade-like face.
"Yes, Young Master!" He saw that Senior Servant Tai carrying the red jade into the middle of the courtyard. He had just given her a pot of medicine to clear her head, and her sleepiness had already been dispelled.
Seeing the old mistress and the prime minister in the courtyard, Hong Yu was so frightened that she knelt on the ground, not daring to raise her head.
"Speak, how did you secretly harm the young master?" Senior Servant Tai grabbed her neck from behind and forced her to look up.
"Yes, yes …" It was Madam who ordered me to add a lot of sleeping pills to the young master's soup. Once the young master drinks it, he will pass out and then open the door for the incense, allowing it to enter the young master's room. As Red Jade spoke, she looked up at the half-naked incense and said.
"Evil creature!" Evil creature! Such a low and vulgar thing actually happened to my Prime Minister's Estate! " Lian Yan Qing was angered to the point that his face turned green. Lian Yin was his only legitimate son and he loved every aspect of him. If this matter of Lian Yin and his sister's servant girl having an affair was spread out, the consequences would be unimaginable!
"Master, don't listen to her nonsense. This is the young master's maid, and the other one is the miss's maid. No matter what you say, it has nothing to do with me." The Xiao family defended themselves.
"Drunken Fragrance, tell me for yourself. What happened?" Her mother was so angry that her face turned pale. She gasped for breath and raised her head to ask about the incense hanging from the tree.
"Servant, servant …" Drunken incense was murmuring.
"Drunken Fragrance, don't speak nonsense. I have never come into contact with you before." The Xiao clan's clan members suddenly looked towards the incense and blinked their eyes as they spoke.
"Liangxiang, the madame is here, and the Prime Minister is here as well. Don't be muddle-headed anymore." Fairy Qingdai said with red circles under her eyes.
Chen Xiang raised her head and looked at every face in the courtyard in a daze. When she looked at the Xiao family, her mind echoed what she had said before. As long as the eldest young miss lost her power, she could be together with her young master.
"This matter has nothing to do with Madam. This servant loved Young Master Mu, so this servant did such a foolish thing." In the end, Drunken Fragrance spoke.
"Drain the incense!" The last glimmer of hope for the incense was gone.
The corner of her lips revealed a smile, then she turned to Lian Mother and Lian Yan Qing and said, "Madame, Master, you heard it right? This matter has nothing to do with me, it was First Miss who did not control her own servant girl well, causing this kind of situation. The one who deserves punishment is Eldest Miss, right."
"If one truly wants to perish, one must first go crazy." Lian Ru Yue shook her head as a trace of coldness appeared at the corner of her eyes. "Burning Incense, you wore a blue dress to the Clear Spring Academy. You thought that you could hide it from the sky and sea."
When the Xiao family heard this, they suddenly raised their heads to look at Lian Xiyue. When the Xiao family heard this, they were also shocked.
Lian Yueyue knew about the incense and the blue daisies?
Fairy took out a dark green satin coat and a blue cotton skirt.
"There is a patch of Ghost Needle Grass at the back gate of the Clear Spring Academy. This plant not only has the function of clearing away heat and detoxifying poisons, but it can also drive away evil spirits. This was what Master Mo An said before, that in order to let the evil spirits out of Third Sister's body, they were allowed to come from the same race.
Even her mother nodded. "That's true."
"Now is the time for the Ghost Needle Grass to fall. The thorn that it grows will easily stick to the clothes. Xiao Clan, look at the bodies of the maidservants beside you."
Bai Wei looked down. Indeed, there were some small thorns stuck to the hem of her skirt. Because today, she had walked out from the back door, and because Red Jade was waiting at the back door, she was immediately startled and nervously lowered her head.
"And the green dress that the incense stole was also stained with the thorn of the Ghost Needle Grass." Lian Ruyue continued to speak. Qing Dai picked up the clothes and everyone saw that the edges and sides of the clothes were stained with the same things as Bai Wei's.
The Xiao family and Aroma Drunken Wine were stunned at the same time, and their faces turned deathly pale!
Madam Xiao didn't expect that Xiyue would notice such minute details, so much so that it couldn't be any more detailed. On the other hand, Lixiang absolutely didn't expect that Miss and Fairy Qingmei would already have their eyes on her stolen clothes. She even thought that it was flawless!
"This... This does not mean that the matter of the incense and the young master was related to me. Perhaps, perhaps the eldest young miss had already planned for a long time to frame me, so she sent people to pick these Ghost Needles and affixed it to her clothes. " The Xiao family's old patriarch said with an unconvinced tone.
"Yes, yes, your servant. Your servant did not secretly wear the brocade dress. No, this was not stolen by your servant." When the incense heard this, it also learned to deny its own actions.
"Heh, and you're still lying. This is simply digging one's own grave. Jadeite, you tell me." Lian Ruyue signaled to Blue Dai.
"Yes, Eldest Miss." "My lady, my lord, this dress was newly made for this servant by the First Miss. The style and material are all different from those of other servants, and this servant is reluctant to wear it, so I have never worn it. This point, whether it is in the Immortal Lotus Courtyard, the Wenhua Courtyard, the laundry, or the servants in the kitchen, as long as they have seen this servant, they can all testify for this servant girl.
