Two hundred and fourteenth chapter trap

Jiang Chengjia's expression did not change anyway, but the originally cold eyes became even colder.

She sniffed the smell of the medicine and sneered: "I really look down on me, and I actually use this colorless and tasteless Western medicine."

Xiao Cui stared at the silver hairpin and medicine held by Jiang Chengjia in both hands, and was at a loss, not knowing what he said.

Jiang Chengjia put the medicine back on the food table that Xiao Cui was still holding, and whispered to her: "Do throw this medicine away quietly, don't let people discover it, especially don't let Ziwei see it."

Xiao Cui was stunned, not sure why.

A call came from outside the house, "Xiao Cui, have you taken the medicine?"

Qianshan's voice drifted into the room, and Xiao Cui quickly responded: "Drink, sister Qianshan, don't worry."

Qianshan stood outside and heard Xiao Cui say this, and she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, then said, "Then you can take good care of the lady, I'll go and have some rest first."

Xiao Cui amplified his voice and replied, "Sister, have a good rest. If there is anything, I will go to find you."

There was no sound outside the house, and a gentle sound of footsteps gradually drifted away.

Jiang Chengjia smiled slightly, looked at Xiao Cui who turned her head, and then lay down on the bed and continued to pretend to be asleep.

Qianshan moved her muscles and bones while walking towards the tent that was laid in the yard.

When she opened the curtain, she walked to the innermost paving base as if nothing had happened and sat down. She was angry, rubbed her shoulders, and stretched tiredly. On her right side, there were six girls sleeping. Qianshan accidentally glanced at them, then took off her coat, then lifted up the bedding to rest.

At this moment, a gentle call suddenly came from the tent: "Sister Qianshan."

"Hmm?" Qianshan responded in a daze, opened her half-closed eyes and looked at the place where the sound came.

Ziwei sat inside and poked out half of her body and asked, "Is it better for the woman to drink so many medicines?"

Qianshan frowned and murmured sleepily: "Xiao Cui served the girl and drank medicine. When I went to see her several times at night, it seemed to be better. Ziwei should not worry. The girl is blessed and will definitely not have any trouble. Let's take a rest quickly. After an hour, I will get up and continue to take care of the girl. It is most important to be able to keep your spirits."

Ziwei responded and lay down.

The tent was very quiet, without a trace of sound, and gradually there were breathing sounds one after another.

The eight people fell asleep because they were too tired.

The night is like a thick ink inkstone, so deep that it cannot be melted. People quietly fall into their dreams, and the moon outside the tent is hazy. It is a quiet time.

Suddenly a scream came from the master bedroom.

Xiao Cui pushed open the door in panic, screaming and screaming: "Come here! Come here! Something happened to the lady! Lord Sun! Where is Lord Sun?"

The seven or eight people in the tent and the group of guards guarding in front of the yard were awakened by the screams, all of them rushed up and asked each other, "What's wrong?"

Xiao Cui ran towards the tent in the yard like a storm, lifted the curtain and shouted: "Sister Qianshan! Hurry up! Call Lord Sun Qi over quickly, Female... Female... Female... Female..."

Qianshan jumped up from the bed, rushed to Xiao Cui, grabbed her clothes and asked nervously, "What's wrong with the girl?"

Xiao Cui's face was bloodless, she was overly frightened, and she trembled all over and said, "My sister... she couldn't wake up from the moment she got up... her body began to be cold, and her nose, eyes, and mouth were covered with blood... I... I don't know what's going on, sister!My sister..."

She was speechless, and Qianshan pushed her away and rushed into Jiang Chengjia's house.

Just as the people in the tent had not yet realized what was going on, a shrill scream suddenly came from the bedroom: "Girl! What's wrong with you?"

Xiao Cui lay outside the tent with weak legs, her eyes filled with fear.

Shuihe, black tea, Xiaoqi, Ziwei and three other maids all surrounded him and asked what was going on. At first, they heard the screams from the room again, so they all rushed into the room.

The guards outside the yard did not dare to enter. When they heard Xiao Cui calling, they had sent people to call Sun Qi and Ji Xianzhi.

As soon as Shuihe and Black Tea ran to the front of the house, they were blocked by Qianshan who came out of it.

At this moment, Qian Shan's hands were covered in blood, her whole body was trembling, her eyes were wide open, and she stared at the water river rushing in front. Her words were reversed and she screamed uncontrollably: "Go and call Master Sun! Find Mr. Ji! Go! Go!" After the roar calmed down, she kept repeating three words, "No...No."

Ziwei stood at the stairs, blocked by the crowd, and could not move forward, but seeing Qian Shan like this, she couldn't help but feel shocked.

Soon, Ji Xianzhi brought Sun Qi to the scene, and the guards behind him followed them to the yard.

He rushed to the front of the house, pushed away the maids surrounding the door, and came to Qianshan and asked, "What's wrong? What's wrong with the lady?"

Qianshan looked at Ji Xianzhi in a daze, and hesitated and said, "Female...Female..."

Seeing that she could no longer speak, Ji Xianzhi pulled Sun Qi and rushed inside. A team of guards circled around outside the bedroom to guard anyone.

Qianshan turned around and followed Ji Xianzhi inside.

The servants and maids stood on the steps and stretched their necks to look into the room, but they could not see any movement for a long time.

After a stick of incense, they saw Sun Qi rushing out with a pale face. Ji Xianzhi was about to faint, and he stood firmly with the door frame. Qian Shan leaned against the edge of the couch and completely fainted.

Xiaoqi frowned and asked, "What's wrong? Mr. Ji, what's wrong with the woman?"

Ji Xianzhi stood against the door frame for a while, recovered a little, his face darkened, and said coldly: "The person who came here will detain all those who have served the Queen tonight! Including Qianshan and Xiao Cui!"

A circle of guards around the house answered in unison: "Yes!"

Immediately afterwards, the strong men immediately dragged the nine servants and maids who were powerless to tie their hands with ropes, and pulled them out of the North Courtyard without any mercy.

Suddenly, a group of people screamed and struggled, and the scene was once in a mess.

Ji Xianzhi continued to instruct: "Go and search the West Courtyard!"

After the other elite guards got the order, they rushed out quickly.

For a moment, the whole house was in chaos.

In Nanyang Pavilion, Li Xiangjun, who had been waiting for the news, heard another noisy sound from outside, so he hurriedly lit the lights and called Peiling and Minghua out to check the situation. Before he could go out, he saw a team of elite guards rushing towards the gate of Nanyang Pavilion. The leading man hurriedly shouted: "Go and send someone to send a letter to the lord. The lady is poisoned and afraid that she will be dead soon."

Standing in front of the gate steps of the pavilion, Li grabbed Minghua's hand and suddenly squeezed it hard, and his eyes flashed secretly.

Minghua was startled by the sudden pain on the back of his hand, and threw a look at Li, slowly lowering his eyes without saying a word.

Pei Ling didn't know what happened outside, but she only knew that since the evening of today, there had never been a rest on the other end of the North Courtyard.

The three of them walked outside the courtyard, and two more servants passed by them and began to whisper.

"The female is bleeding from her seven orifices. I heard that when Sister Qianshan was dragged out, her hands were covered in blood... It seems that the female is not going to survive tonight."

"Yes... I don't know who is so cruel. Lord Sun rushed out of the North Courtyard, took the things and rushed back, but it was useless... This poison is really amazing... When did you think the woman was poisoned?"

"Who knows?"

"Does our lord have evil deeds?"

"What nonsense?"

"I didn't say nonsense. If it weren't for this, why did Mrs. Cao's illness not heal yet, and the woman had encountered unexpected problems one after another. She made her look like she is now?"

"Shh, don't say more, don't you know that the disaster comes from your mouth?"

The two servants spoke in a very loud voice, but they didn't hide it because they happened to pass by Nanyang Pavilion and had never seen clearly the three people standing in front of the house in the night.

And their conversation just fell into Li Xiangjun's ears.

Pei Ling was very surprised when she heard this and said in a low voice in Li's ear: "Then Jiang family is actually... Princess... Do we want to go over and take a look?"

Li Xiangjun stared at her eyes and calmed down, and then said, "So something big happened... My aunt is sick again. Brother Zhao has not returned yet. I am the only person in charge of the matter in this mansion. Naturally, I have to go over and take a look. Look... It is the servants and maids in this mansion who have evil intentions towards A Luo. They dare to do this!"

Peiling nodded and helped her and Minghua and the other two go to the North Courtyard.

Ji Xianzhi wandered anxiously in the North Courtyard. Sun Qi ran back and forth dozens of times, with a bad expression.

The whole yard was wrapped in a weird atmosphere.

Li hurried to the screen wall, rushed into the inner courtyard, and was stopped by the Jingshu Guard and pushed out.

"You are so bold! You dare to stop Princess Nanyang?" Pei Ling scolded angrily when she saw these soldiers blocking the three of them.

The leading military man said straight and straightforwardly: "Princess, forgive the crime, the military order is here, and the subordinates are rude."

Li stared at the military man coldly and said, "Who gives you the courage? In this courtyard, other people dare to stop me?"

Junhan continued to lower his head and hold his fists, standing in front of her without moving, and said coldly: "After the subordinate entered the army, he only listened to the order of his superiors. Before leaving, the lord explained that he was not here, and Mr. Ji's order was his."

Li's face looked ugly and was about to continue to scold him.

But a loud male voice came from inside: "Madam Xiang calmed down!"

Ji Xianzhi walked out of it.

Li's expression slowed down a little, looked at Ji Xianzhi, and asked in a warm voice: "Uncle Ji, you are here just right. I was about to ask... What happened to the North Courtyard? Why did you have so many guards surrounded by the late night?"

Ji Xianzhi calmly covered up and said, "Princess, don't worry, but there are thieves in the yard stealing, and they have been caught now."

Li's eyes flashed with disdain as he heard the excuse he was looking for.
