"Miss, how do these four people arrange?"
When Fu Ling came back, Qin Wan was already grinding the medicine powder, Qin Wan said while grinding, "Have they all settled down?"
Fu Ling nodded, "It's settled down, and they are all well-behaved."
Qin Wan said "Yes", "We don't need so many people to work, so we have nothing to order."
Fu Ling glanced at the medicine in the room, "Who said there is no need for people to do the work, isn't grinding medicine powder just work?"
The corners of Qin Wan's lips twitched slightly, "This is medicine for His Royal Highness Prince Rui's son, no one else can interfere."
Fuling let out a "hmm" and said with a slight turn of her eyes, "But miss, it's a pity that these four people are left unused..."
The corners of Qin Wan's lips curved slightly, "How do you want to use it?"
Fu Ling's eyes fluttered wildly, "These four are the sons of the Qin family, and they don't know what their tempers are. In the future, when the young lady has something important to tell, who should I tell?"
"Then what do you want to do?" Qin Wan focused on the medicine.
Fu Ling bent her lips, "Naturally, we have to observe carefully and choose two prudent and reliable ones, but if we don't let them do things, we won't see anything, miss, how about you think of a way to try them?"
Qin Wan shook her head, "There's no rush for a few days, as long as our yard remains the same as before."
Fu Ling sighed, "Miss is really calm."
Qin Wan smiled and said nothing, only focusing on making medicine.
It has been more than half a month. She has been running between the Qin Mansion and the Hou Mansion. There are incidents on both sides, but the most important thing is to find the murderer who is hiding in the dark and killed her.
Thinking of this, Qin Wan's heart sank, she had to go to the Purple Bamboo Forest.
Qin Wan came back late, and it was already late when the medicine was finished. When Fuling was about to rest, she came in and said, "Miss, Wantang, Wantao, and Wanxing are all waiting outside, but there is no Wanli."
Qin Wan raised her eyebrows and took off her clothes, "Oh? Where is Wanli?"
Fu Ling snorted, showing displeasure on her face, "Among the four people, the servants had already noticed a thing or two when they went to choose the place of residence. That Wantang was stable and serious, and everyone was chosen first, and Wantao was lively and active. , also humbly, Wan Xing said that she didn't care where she lived, but that night Li was very high-spirited, so she chose the quietest place in the innermost place when she went up."
"The servant did not tell the young lady when she saw it. Now it seems that she really has a big problem! Today is the first day they entered Tinglan Garden. The young lady didn't order any work for a day, and the other three knew to wait outside. This night, Li doesn't care, and doesn't know whether she is here to be a lady or a slave."
Qin Wan hooked her lips, "If you have a chance, you can ask the other three to find out what happened to Li this night."
Fu Ling nodded, and then came to wait for Qin Wan to change clothes.
After changing clothes and washing up, Qin Wan ordered after lying down, "Let them go back and rest, and you should rest too."
Fu Ling hurriedly agreed, extinguished the lamp in the corner and retreated.
Qin Wan quickly fell asleep under the soft brocade quilt.
In the dream, it was the chaos of that night again.
The father, who had always been as steady as a mountain, suddenly came back with a pale face, and asked his mother to pack things without saying a word. The mother and father were in the same heart, and one look at his expression knew that something was wrong, so he only brought the most basic gold and silver.
But even that is too late...
Martial law had already been imposed in the city just after they left, and the Imperial Forest Army had already killed Shen's residence before they walked out a street.
Then came the chasing and indiscriminate shooting.
Qin Wan still couldn't figure it out, even if his father was a third-rank official, even if the crime was confirmed, he should go to Dali Temple through the Ministry of Criminal Justice to be convicted of the crime, and in that shooting, the other party came to take their lives...
Qin Wan opened his eyes suddenly, sweat dripping down his forehead.
The painful faces of her father and mother in the dream still appeared in front of her eyes, and the angry face of her father before he died must be caused by grievances. Who really wanted to kill her father...
Qin Wan felt that her throat was dry and her temples throbbed with pain. She turned around to look, only to see that the sky outside the window had already lightened slightly, another night was going to pass, and her hope of returning to Beijing was still slim.
However, at this moment, in the capital thousands of miles away, King Yong sat on the throne.
Thinking of this former fiancé whom she had only met a few times, Qin Wan frowned tightly.
What role did he play in the tragedy of the Shen family
The cold sweat made Qin Wan feel chills. She wrapped her brocade quilt tightly, but she couldn't sleep anymore.
It's too slow, if she just waits like this day after day, when will she be able to go back to the capital? Or, do you really want to marry to the capital like a joke with Fuling
Qin Wan clenched his fists tightly. Although it was a last resort, if there is no way out, it's not impossible.
Qin Guanxuan closed his eyes, but his mind was full of turmoil. The murderer he wanted to find could not be found, but he was involved in the chaos of the Hou Mansion. Huanyuan, if her father is still there, Song Rou's case must be very simple. If her father is still there, the fog in the Qin family will definitely be cleared.
When Fu Ling helped Qin Wan get up, she looked a little tired, "Miss, didn't you sleep well last night?"
Qin Wan shook his head and didn't say much. After familiarizing himself with it, he had breakfast and started making medicine. As soon as he started making medicine, he naturally thought of Yan Chi, and when thinking of Yan Chi, he thought of writing with his left hand.
The whole Hou Mansion was looking for a left-handed man, he was the only left-handed man found, Yue Ning's doubts about him were understandable, but Qin Wan's intuition told her that Yan Chi was not the one who would end a woman's life. Such a cruel way.
His status, even Song Guogong himself would never dare to befriend him easily, let alone a little Song Rou, even if there is really any hatred, he still has a lot of ways to do it neatly, and will never leave a loophole for everyone catch.
Thinking of this, Qin Wan narrowed his eyes. Yan Chi must not be absolutely righteous, but he would not be stupid enough to think that wearing a wedding dress to scare people would make her leave the Anyang Hou Mansion and leave this case...
"Miss, this servant looks at Wan Tang as reliable." Fu Ling came in from the outside with a happy expression on her face.
Qin Wan turned her eyes, "Why do you see that?"
Fu Ling smiled and said, "Wan Tang got up early in the morning, instead of going into the main room, she first regulated the orchids in the yard, and then waited to pick up your breakfast at the gate of the yard. The bluegrass is neatly regulated by her, she seems to know how to flower, some pots are pruned by her very beautifully."
Qin Wan bent her lips, "It would be very useful if that's the case."
"That's right, you don't have to take care of so many orchids by yourself."
After the first panic in the orchid garden, Qin Wan moved more than ten pots of orchids in the orchid garden and put them in the yard, and then locked the side door. Since then, it has become her habit to take care of the orchids every day one.
Qin Wan asked again, "Where are the others?"
Fu Ling curled her lips, "Wan Tao saw Wan Tang like that, and followed her, but the servant saw that she was not acting prudently enough, and kept asking Miss Numaid what she was doing, saying she wanted to come and serve her, hmph, the servant ignored him , and the other Wan Xing, standing aside in obscurity, seems to be unable to take on such a big deal, that Wan Li... the servant has not seen her face this morning!"
As she said that, the corners of Fu Ling's lips raised slightly, "But this servant knows where he came from!"
Fu Ling's eyes showed a bit of a joke, "This evening, Li's parents are both the stewards of the Zhuangzi outside. They are quite respectable in the Qin family. She looks good since she was a child. She was originally going to be sent to I went to Miss Fifth to be a big girl, but it wasn't why Miss Fifth didn't like her at the time, she didn't choose her, and later she was sent to Miss Six. Without the eldest girl next to the young lady, she wanted to go to the two young masters, but besides a few girls chosen by the old lady, the eldest young master didn't like to put more maidservants in the house, while the second young master already had There are quite a few servants who are more beautiful than her, they came and went, and she didn't go where she wanted to go, let alone her age, she was about to be accepted by her parents, but the mansion had to pick someone again... "
Qin Wan laughed when she heard that, she had seen the two big girls beside Qin Shuang and Qin Xiang before, they looked nothing but ordinary, and Wan Li was born well, wouldn't it be beautiful if she overshadowed her master
That's why Qin Shuang and Qin Xiang didn't choose her, but she never expected that after delays, she would finally enter Tinglanyuan. Wan Li was naturally unwilling to have a future, so she made this appearance, Qin Wan shook her head, and her smile deepened by two points.
"Miss is still laughing. Didn't sister Caihe say that she went to talk to her when she was dissatisfied? The slave girl saw that Wan Li was too unruly. She really thought she was half a master! Miss, do you want to go to see her?" Sister Caihe, tell me to send her out again?"
Qin Wan lowered her head and continued to grind the medicine, and said with a smile, "I just think her experience is both angry and funny. She failed the election several times and couldn't reach the place she wanted to go. Hey, God really likes to play tricks on people."
Fuling felt that Wanli didn't respect Qin Wan, but Qin Wan didn't care, "Miss, should I talk to Sister Caihe?"
Qin Wan shook her head, "Forget it, keep her for now, we don't need so many people to do things anyway."
Fu Ling pursed her lips and muttered in a low voice, "Miss is so sweet!"
Qin Wan patted her reassuringly, Fu Ling wanted to persuade her again, but there was a knock on the door outside, Fu Ling went out, and after a while, faint voices came from outside, although the four "nights" yesterday were only saluting He did speak, but Qin Wan still remembered the voices of the four of them, and it was Wan Tang who came to look for them now.
The voice was far away, and this Wantang lowered her voice, it could be seen that she really understood the rules.
Not long after, Fu Ling came in, "Miss, there are people from the front yard, saying that for the Spring Festival, every yard will send people to the front yard to bring things back. Who will our yard send?"
Qin Wan thought for a while, "Who among them volunteered to go?"
Fu Ling was slightly surprised, "Miss, how would you know... Wan Tao said she wanted to go..."
Qin Wan smiled and nodded, "Okay, then let her go, let her go with Wantang."
As soon as Fuling heard that Qin Wan had ordered Wantang, she felt that her recommendation was really useful, and she went out to order with a smile on her face. After a while, the noises in the yard started from near to far, and then quieted down.
Fu Ling came back and said, "The Qiuxi Festival in the past has nothing to do with us, but it is really different now." He said with anticipation, "The little slave who came over from the front yard said that all the servants are gathered in the front yard now , I'm afraid this mansion will be arranged in a big way."
Qin Wan paused, "Have they all been gathered in the front yard?"
Fu Ling nodded, "Yes, what's wrong, miss?"
Qin Wan glanced at the medicine powder in front of him, "I don't have enough medicine, I have to get it."
"Ah? What does the lady want, the servant will get it."
Qin Wan stood up, "I'll get it myself, you are here, grind out these red peony seeds for me."
Fu Ling hesitated to speak, but Qin Wan rubbed her neck, "I happened to sit for a long time, my neck is sore, I'll go for a walk."
Fu Ling wanted to speak but stopped, "The servant girl will accompany you, it won't be too late to grind when you come back."
"It's not that your lady doesn't know the way." Qin Wan laughed, patted the folds on the dress and went out, "This red peony powder needs to be ground finely, don't be lazy, I'll have to inspect it when I come back! "
Fu Ling let out an oh, thinking that the sky is bright and bright, and the road to the medicine store is not far away, so she swallowed the words she wanted to say.
Qin Wan walked out of the main room door, only to see the door of the side room half-closed. She turned her face away and walked out of the courtyard door quickly. On weekdays, there was no one in the inner courtyard where the servants came and went. Qin Wan must have been thinking, and couldn't help but speed up his feet. There are many people in the Qin family, and these servants cannot be gathered for too long. Maybe they will go back to each other soon. Get up, she has to hurry!
Qin Wan's steps were windy, and Miss Jiu was still a little weak, and she felt sweaty on her forehead after a while. She didn't care about it, and went straight to the east. She said she was going to get the medicine, but after passing by, she went to the medicine store At the fork in the road, she didn't turn as she did last time, she walked further east, and soon, the aunt's house appeared, but Qin Wan's footsteps still didn't stop, she chose a remote path, went straight to Zizhu Lin... This trail was what she saw when she followed someone to clean the well last time!
The last opportunity was missed, this time she must seize this golden opportunity no matter what.
Qin Wan glanced around, afraid that someone would appear suddenly. If the current situation is seen by others, it will only be more suspicious than usual, and the possibility of being discovered will become smaller, but once discovered, the matter will be serious , Qin Wan raised her heart to her throat.
The fragrance of bamboo was faint, and before reaching the purple bamboo forest, Qin Wan saw some withered and yellow bamboo leaves being blown by the wind. Not long after, the purple bamboo forest was right in front of him, and Qin Wan was certain in his heart that he was planning to step into it, but There was a figure flashing out of the forest in the distance, Qin Wan stopped abruptly, and hurriedly backed away...
Qin Wan hid on the side corridor not far from the purple bamboo forest, and the figure coming out of the purple bamboo forest has gradually become clear. In the verdant bamboo forest, the figure in the water-red dress is slender and transparent. It looked gaudy and there was no one around, but the man's walking steps were still swaying and swaying. At the same time, Qin Wan could still imagine the white powder falling from the man's face with every step...
The one who came out of the purple bamboo forest turned out to be Eighth Aunt Liu's family!
The Purple Bamboo Forest is a forbidden place in the mansion, it is impossible for Mrs. Liu not to know about it in the mansion for many years, but how could she run to the Purple Bamboo Forest when all the servants have gone to the front yard
Qin Wan stared, and saw that Liu's face was also full of anxiety. She walked very fast and looked around carefully, with a look of panic and fear of being discovered. Qin Wan pursed her lips. She went to the Purple Bamboo Forest. In order to find the murderer, what did Ba Yiniang go to do? Frowning, Qin Wan suddenly saw Ba Yiniang's weird hand...
One hand was folded in front of her body, while the other hand was tightly clutching her sleeve bag... Qin Wan was sure that there must be something hidden in Ba Yiniang's sleeve bag. Did she go to the Purple Bamboo Forest to fetch something?
In that gloomy bamboo grove, what kind of treasure is there
Qin Wan concentrated on thinking, but saw Ba Yiniang walking towards him...
Qin Wan cried out from the bottom of her heart that the eighth aunt was also walking on this secluded path, so she had no choice but to back away, Qin Wan's pace was faster, only because the eighth aunt walked Ping Ting Pretty, but she walked much faster than her. Qin Wan trotted all the way, only retreating to the south of the aunt's courtyard, and then stopped to catch his breath.
Turning around to look out, sure enough, Eighth Auntie went back to Auntie's courtyard sneakily.
After going and waiting, Qin Wan's best time has passed. She took a breath and looked at the purple bamboo forest in the distance, but she still didn't give up. Is it only the eighth aunt? Will there be other people coming out of it!
Qin Wan stood behind the flower wall and waited quietly, but after waiting for half a night, the Zizhu Forest was still quiet. Didn't Ba Yiniang go to meet someone? Just go get what
Qin Wan's heart was beating fast, she wished she could trot over to have a look right now, but firstly, too much time had passed, and secondly, the purple bamboo forest was huge, so Qin Wan gave up on going to the purple bamboo forest now thought.
This visit was not fruitless, at least, she found another person who went to the Purple Bamboo Forest.
Even though it is said that Zizhu Forest is a forbidden place to be haunted by ghosts, some people still go into it...
Qin Wan turned around while thinking, but half of her body was turned, but Qin Wan suddenly stopped!
She saw someone who shouldn't be here...
She was hiding behind the flower wall just now, looking in the direction of the purple bamboo forest, her figure was a bit sneaky, but at the corner of the corridor five feet in front of her, Wan Xing, who was dressed in green, stood there at some point.
She still shrunk her shoulders and closed her eyes, looking dull and nervous.
Seeing her turn around, Wan Xing blessed her body, "Miss Nine, this servant is here to find you..."
Qin Wan's heart thumped, and the corners of her lips were pursed for a moment as she walked in front of Wan Xing. When she reached Wan Xing, she paused slightly, "Who told you to follow..."
Her voice was awe-inspiring, Wan Xing lowered her head even lower.
"Your Madam arrived just after you left. It was Sister Fu Ling who sent the slaves to look for you."
Qin Wan squinted at her for a moment, then walked towards Tinglanyuan. While walking, Qin Wan turned her head to look at Wan Xing, but saw Wan Xing lowered her head, as if she wanted to lower her head into the ground look.
Qin Wan didn't speak, and strode back to Tinglanyuan. When he was about to reach the gate of Tinglanyuan, Qin Wan paused again.
At the gate of Tinglanyuan, not only Lin was standing, but also Qin Xiang, Qin Chen and Qin Li. Fu Ling stood aside nervously, seeing her come back with joy on her face.
"Guan'er, you said you were going to get the medicine, why did you go for so long—"
As soon as Lin saw Qin Wan, she asked a question. Although it was a small responsibility, her tone was not heavy. Qin Wan hurriedly stepped forward to bless Fushen, "I kept Madam waiting for a long time, because I have to do it for the eldest princess of the Houfu. Medicine, so don’t be careless.”
Qin Li narrowed his slender eyes and glanced at Qin Wan, while Qin Xiang looked at Qin Wan with a little dissatisfaction.
Qin Chen stepped forward and smiled, "Why are you still sweating? Did you run in a hurry when you came back?"
Qin Wan's heart tightened, and she was about to speak, but Wan Xing who was behind said dumbly, "Miss Nine was waiting for Dr. Qian from the medicine store to come back. When she heard that Madam was coming, she hurried back without daring to neglect."
Qin Wan's back stiffened, she didn't go to the medicine store at all, and she didn't wait for Qian Bairen.
She knew this, and Wan Xing should know it too.
Qin Chen smiled, "Doctor Qian also went to the front yard, the timing of your visit is not right."
The corners of Qin Wan's lips raised slightly, and his voice was still calm and calm, "I'm afraid I have to go for a while..."
Mrs. Lin stepped forward and said gently, "Why do you need to go in person? Let Xiao Nu go later. Tomorrow is the Autumn Eve Festival. The old lady ordered you to make new autumn clothes for this year. Let's go to the Jinxiu workshop in the city to make them." , go out now."
Lin's taking her to Jinxiufang to make clothes, this is not an ordinary treatment!
Fuling's eyes lit up, Qin Wanfu smiled and said, "That's good, thank you Ma'am."
Lin smiled and said nothing, and led Qin Xiang to the front. Qin Wan glanced back while following.
Wan Xing stood where she was, still looking like she was about to lower her head into the ground.
