Dongfang Jing placed Xinlan in the relatively secluded west chamber, firstly to let the seriously injured Xinlan recover from her illness, and secondly, she didn't want someone like Qianyun wandering around in Prince Gong's mansion. When the day happened by accident, Dongfang Jing would be disgusted, as if she had eaten a fly.
Fanxing and Yingxue don't have any residences, and they don't know what kind of festive relationship there is between Dongfang Jing and Shen Zhaoyu, so they still go to the West Chamber to deliver medicines every day.
Only Dongmei is smart, and she can guess by observing her words and demeanor at ordinary times.
In the afternoon, Dongfang Jing applied the medicine for Xinlan, went back to her room to rest, while stirring the tea bowl in her hand, she was in a daze.
Dongmei stood beside her, thinking for a long time, but still couldn't help but say, "Master, if you find that shallow cloud not pleasing to your eyes, we will drive her back! It's just a servant girl, you can't see it without seeing it!"
Dongfang Jing took a sip of her tea, frowned and said, "It's easy to rush back, but we can't settle Xinlan's account! The surname Shen is too deceitful, Aunt Xinlan has been by her side for decades , planning for her day and night, what is wrong with her, to end up like this?!"
"Master wants to..."
Dongmei's eyes moved, as if she had read Dongfang Jing's thoughts.
Dongfang Jing glanced down at the muddy tea bowl, and said slowly, "Since she wants to use Xinlan, then we should let her use it! If she can't make use of it, won't she be disappointed?"
"Aunt Xinlan's medicine is backed up by Miss Qianyun." Dongmei was wise and immediately understood Dongfang Jing's meaning. Vegetables. The servants followed to see. At noon, there were people from the palace at the gate of the West Street vegetable market. If there is no accident, it should be people from Shen Guifei’s palace. Qianyun sent out the back-up medicines every day. For something else, it is probably to treat Concubine Shen Gui. After all, Aunt Xinlan has the same poison as Concubine Shen Gui.”
"Yes." Dongfang Jing pursed her lips, and the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously, "Shen Zhaoyu is sure that I will use the best medicine to heal Aunt Xinlan, and she is sure that she will have a good day—"
"If Master tampers with Aunt Xinlan's medicine, Concubine Shen can die without anyone noticing it!" Dongmei's eyes turned hard, "It's just that Aunt Xinlan..."
Dongfang Jing looked sideways slightly, and a cold light flashed in her eyes, "I will not sacrifice innocent people."
"But such an excellent opportunity..." Dongmei frowned, "Master, don't tell me you want to watch Concubine Shen grow up! Yes! There is indeed no cure for Baiyan poison! But that was in the past! Master, for Aunt Xinlan, these things After testing the medicine day and night, the servant could tell that Aunt Xinlan was getting better, but the servant was afraid that Concubine Shen would also get better, and that everything the master had done before would be in vain..."
"Won't."
Dongfang Jing's eyes widened suddenly, her eyes were extremely firm, "I told her to let her die, so I will definitely let her die!"
"But..." Dongmei was a little worried.
Dongfang Jing glanced sideways at her, "Didn't Concubine Le say that the arrangement has been made?"
Dongmei was slightly startled, "It was arranged. In the past few days, Shen Zhaoyu lost the maid of honor, Fei Yan, so it was the best time to act. If the master hadn't been concerned about His Royal Highness Ning, Shen Zhaoyu would have died at this time! But now Shen Zhaoyu can Panting, I'm afraid it will be very difficult to get things done. Le Bin is a cowardly master, I'm afraid she won't dare to meddle."
