Chapter 557 Borrowing Books
Kneeling too suddenly, Jiang Wan frowned, "What are you doing when you kneel down?"
The little maid was tearful, "Lu Tao was killed by someone. I don't want her to die without understanding. I ask the prince's concubine to help me, and I can do a cow and horse to repay the prince's concubine's kindness."
Jin'er looked at Jiang Wan and looked at the little maid again, "Didn't Lu Tao drowned? Why was she killed by someone?"
Although she also knew that most of the maids in the mansion were not accidental, Lu Tao was promoted before, and something happened today. Could it be that someone went to the position of the maid?
But if you have to go to the position of the eldest maid, you won’t wait until Lu Tao takes over.
The little maid wiped her tears and said, "Lu Tao drowned when she was a child, but I found that she asked someone to pick her up. After that, she was afraid to see the water. Usually she didn't even dare to leave by the lotus pond."
"She brought me a food box before, so we were talking by the rockery. A little maid came to the South Courtyard, saying that the third girl had burned her thighs and was in a hurry to find her to go back and serve..."
When Lu Tao left, she looked at her proudly, "Look, the third girl is so spoiled by me. There are so many maids in the yard, so I have to serve her."
The little maid ate the pastry and urged her, "Then you go quickly, don't ask the third girl to wait and worry."
Lu Tao left.
The little maid didn't expect that this time she left would be a farewell forever.
Green peach is dead.
She knew that Green Peach would never walk by the water. She always stayed as far away as she could. Sometimes when she got closer, she would rather take a detour. At worst, she could walk faster and run. Moreover, she would not pass through the water from the garden to the south courtyard.
When the flood occurred in my hometown, there was no harvest in the fields. Lu Tao's father was cruel to sell her. Qiu Xi's younger sister was starved to death, and her parents and younger brother were left with only one breath. Qiu Xi took the initiative to ask her parents to sell her.
After selling her, her parents and younger brother could still hold on until the court released the food, but if they didn't sell it, they wouldn't be able to hold on.
Instead of everyone dying, she would suffer alone. She and Lu Tao could be together, no matter where they were sold, both of them could be a companion.
Qiuxi was for her family, but at that time Lutao was sold and she wanted to die. Qiuxi was with her, which was a great comfort for Lutao.
The two of them ate and lived together, and entered the Jing'an Prince's Mansion together. Lu Tao thought of her with delicious food and fun. For Qiu Xi, Lu Tao was her own sister. Now she died strangely. How could Qiu Xi not doubt it? How could she not find out how to find out the cause of her death and let Lu Tao die with peace of mind.
But she was just a little maid, so where did she get the ability to help Lu Tao? The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she was incompetent, and she hugged the food box while eating, wishing she could live to death with Lu Tao. The two of them had a companion underground.
When he saw Jin'er, Qiuxi wanted to ask Jin'er, but Jin'er was just a maid. Even if he was favored by the prince's concubine, he would not be able to help her.
As soon as Jiang Wan opened her mouth, Qiu Xi couldn't help but kneel down for Jiang Wan.
Jiang Wan didn't say anything, Jin'er said, "Lu Tao is the maid of the third bedroom. Although my princess is in charge of the gifts, she can't control the life or death of the maid of the third bedroom."
Qiu Xi also knew this.
She knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Jiang Wan, "I just don't want Lu Tao to die without understanding. I ask the princess to help me..."
The little maid had a deep affection for sisters, and Jiang Wan was also moved.
She helped Qiuxi up and said, "I can't interfere in the matter of the third room. From now on, you can come to my Bai Jingxuan to serve you."
The little maid was stunned when she heard this, her tears were still hanging on her eyelashes. She probably never dreamed that she could enter Bai Jingxuan. Is the princess going to ask her to check Lu Tao's death by herself?
Jin'er looked at Jiang Wan, "Miss, do you really want her to enter Bai Jingxuan?"
She was a little worried.
This little maid looks pretty good, but she helped Songlingtang’s maid Hongmei to fake her purse. What if someone asks her to harm the girl?
Although the girl has excellent medical skills, she always has times when she is unpredictable.
It was just that what Jiang Wan decided not to be able to persuade Jin'er, so she could only keep an eye on it herself.
The little maid kowtowed to Jiang Wan and thanked her.
After the little maid left, Jiang Wan became a little tired and sat down on the stone pier beside the rockery.
This place is blocked by a rockery, and as long as you don’t speak, no one will find anyone here.
As soon as Jiang Wan sat down, a sound came from the other side, "When the third girl was having breakfast, I heard someone report that she had lost her etiquette in front of the Pingnan Palace. She shook her hand and burned herself."
Jin'er leaned out and saw the second wife coming with her maid.
The second wife sneered, "The third girl sharpened her head and drilled into Pingnan Bo Mansion. She saw that success was hopeless. If Pingnan Bo Mansion lost power, she would have been in vain for so long."
The maid nodded repeatedly, "The third room has been very strange recently. Yesterday, the third girl went to the side courtyard and bought two boxes of tiger bone pills from Master Liu. She returned it soon after. After the third girl was burned, the third master went to the side courtyard and bought the two boxes of tiger bone pills that the third girl returned back."
I don’t know what I do if I go back and forth.
The second wife was walking forward, and when she heard this, she stopped walking, "Mr. Third Master bought two more boxes of tiger bone pills?"
"That's what the maid in the third room said, and said that Young Master Liu lives in our palace, but he doesn't give him any face to the third master," the maid replied.
The second wife frowned.
Qi Mojie cheated Master Liu and bought Tiger Bone Pills for ten times the price, so he naturally could not hide the fact that he was the second wife of Baishiji.
The tiger bone balls that Master Liu bought for such a high price cannot be sold to Master San at a cheap price.
When did the Third House become so rich and powerful?
Forget it, I’ll give Ping Nanbo two boxes, whom are you going to pay filial piety to?
"The eyelids are too shallow," said the second wife sarcastically.
Pingnanbo has the Duke of Protector behind his back. Even if the court loses his etiquette in front of the palace, the third wing would not have looked for a family so soon, right?
I don’t worry about this disaster. Pingnan Bo Mansion will be able to survive without any danger. I will regret it and cry without any place to regret it?
The second wife took the maid away.
Jiang Wan's brows frowned so hard that she couldn't loosen. Jin'er called her twice, but Jiang Wan didn't respond. Jin'er raised her hand and shook her past Jiang Wan's eyes, "Miss?"
"What are you thinking?" Jin'er was curious.
Jiang Wan shook her head, "It's okay, go back."
She raised her hand and Jin'er helped her up.
The two walked towards Bai Jingxuan. As soon as they reached the gate of the courtyard, a maid came over and said, "Criminal Princess, you are back, the cousin is here. The prince is not here, let me find you."
Inside the pavilion.
Tan Yue sat there, flipping through books casually.
Hearing the footsteps, he turned around and saw Jiang Wan, so he quickly closed the book and got up.
Jiang Wan smiled and said, "Your cousin was asked by my fifth uncle. Are you worried about him?"
Tan Yue said, "It's okay if my cousin is not here, just my cousin's wife is here. Brother Jing Yuan has finished reading the military books he borrowed from him. I'll help him change some of them."
Jiang Wan smiled and said, "I thought it was important. The military books were all in the study. Would you just get them yourself?"
Tan Yue said, "How can I take it without asking?"
It didn't matter before, but it won't work now.
"Then I'll go to the study to find it," Tan Yue said.
"When my cousin comes back, I'll bother my cousin and my cousin to say something."
Actually, it's okay not to say it.
Except for him, no one dared to go to my cousin's study to get a book.
Tan Yue left in a hurry. Jiang Wan wanted to ask him how Master Fu was doing, but he didn't have the chance to speak, let alone talk about Tiger Bone Pills.
Tan Yue entered the study and found the military books for Master Fu. The military books were placed a little high, and Tan Yue had to take them even if he wanted to take them.
It’s okay to cushion your footsteps, but when you took the book, the brocade robe was cut with a thorn.
Tan Yue lowered his head and saw half of the brocade robe hanging on a copper lock.
Tan Yue raised his eyebrows.
Did my cousin actually learn to lock the cabinet?
Usually, silver notes are placed in the drawer at will.
He turned around.
Open the drawer.
The silver bill lay there steadily.
Tan Yue turned his head to look at the cabinet again, touched his chin, and looked suspicious.
If this cabinet is not used to lock the silver notes, what kind of treasure will be contained in it?
Tan Yue struggled endlessly.
On one hand, it is a misunderstanding of the cabinet, but on the other hand, it is a cause of my curiosity.
Forget it.
He was not curious about what was hidden in the cabinet, so he tried to try to pick the door and locks by himself.
