Even if Mother really broke into the palace, as long as Emperor Ning is not present, there is still room for redemption!
Dongfang Jing was nervous and clenched her fists involuntarily.
"Splendid Palace." Dongmei frowned and said hastily, "I'm in the Imperial Garden today. For the sake of Gongsun Yun's face, His Majesty deliberately ignored Rong Pingting. When I was going to Guanju Palace, I heard some The maids were discussing in private, saying that Eunuch Li from the House of Internal Affairs submitted the sign, but His Majesty didn't read it, and directly booked the Jinxiu Palace, presumably to coax Concubine Rong."
"Understood." Dongfang Jing nodded thoughtfully, then turned and entered the backyard.
It was still raining lightly outside the house, Dongmei frowned, and hurriedly opened an umbrella to chase out.
At that time, Dongfang Jing had already squatted down on the edge of the flower bed, carefully cut off two plum blossoms and stuffed them into her sleeves.
The name of Fenghoumei sounds a bit scary, but it doesn't have the effect of sealing throat with blood. It grows a little bit bigger than ordinary winter plums, but it blooms in midsummer. Fenghoumei is different from other poisons. People who are poisoned will be instantly paralyzed and unconscious. After sleeping for a day, you will wake up without any sequelae. Of course, traditional Chinese medicine all talk about compounding medicines. The effect of Fenghoumei depends on how it is compounded.
Dongmei knew that they were trapped in Yuhua Terrace for seven days, and the only bit of poison hidden in Yuhua Terrace was used up, and the master had no choice but to pick the newly grown herb .
Dongfang Jing got up, then looked back at Dongmei and said, "Go to the side hall and set a fire to draw away all the palace guards near Yuhuatai."
"Yes!" Dongmei agreed.
Prime Minister's Mansion.
Yuhua Terrace was guarded by the Imperial Forest Army for six full days, and the third wife was unable to hear about her daughter and son-in-law for six full days.
Zhong Liyi put his arms around her shoulders, and said soothingly, "A'Ning, don't worry, there is news from the palace just now, the case of Yuhuatai has been investigated, His Majesty has withdrawn the Imperial Forest Army, and Wan Yun will be able to return soon." Out of the palace safely."
"Really?" The third wife, Ye Anning, frowned, with an expression of disbelief.
"Of course it's true." Zhong Liyi smiled slightly.
"Master, the accounts of the two shops facing the street for half a year have been counted, but there are some problems in the last few items, and it is calculated that there is a total missing of about one hundred thousand silver." Tao Butler lowered his head and whispered.
"What?! One hundred thousand silver?!" Zhong Liyi's face instantly turned black with anger!
His prime minister's house is only a little bit of family affairs. Although he is an official worshiping the prime minister, he has never been with the prince. When it comes to money... he doesn't get much! Zuo is nothing more than his salary and the two shops left by his ancestors.
In the past two years, those two shops combined could not earn more than one hundred thousand silver.
Now according to Butler Tao's calculation, in just half a year, his prime minister's mansion lost a hundred thousand dollars? !
"My subordinates have carefully counted it. One hundred and two thousand two hundred and thirty-four taels." Tao Butler raised his eyes, and his eyes swept across the face of the third lady inadvertently.
The third lady frowned involuntarily, but she didn't stop Zhong Liyi in the end. She bit her lips and said, "Master, the accountant's business is urgent. You should go to the accountant's office first. I'm a little tired tonight, so I won't be with the master." .”
Zhong Liyi was thinking of finding an excuse to leave, but he never expected that Ye Anning would suddenly become so considerate, so he nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay. An Ning, you are so kind."
