After waiting for a while, Lan Xin went to ask Huang Lang for help, but none of them came back.

Seeing that the sky was getting darker, Lan Lan couldn't sit still. She either paced around the room or went to the main hall to see if anyone was coming.

The night wind was blowing, and every time Lan Li lifted the curtain of the door, it was filled with cold air. She complained as she walked in, "Why aren't you back yet? This has already changed for the second half of the year! "

He was extremely anxious.

Shen Zheng's three minutes, when I set out from the courtyard, to pay my respects to my grandmother.

The more anxious he was, the slower he would feel the passage of time.

I might as well find something else to do.

So I sat in my chair, holding the candle and hammering while it was hot, and went on thinking about the whole thing.

Based on what he already knew, the mystery of the blood coffin was gradually surfacing on the surface of the water.

First of all, Lanxin made this kind of cool cake. In the cake, there was some herbal medicine called Bloody Blood Flow, which could cause a person's abdominal pain. It could lead to death from poisoning, or it could be mixed with two kinds of medicine, one was Bloody Blood Flow, and the other was a deadly poison.

After Lan Xin made the cake, she gave it to Gan Sanquan's family and told her to find a way for the wet nurse, Ying'er, Wen Lian, and Lu Qu to touch the cake.

On the surface, it would seem that the four of them were related to serving at a close distance at home.

I had been bewitched by the idea, and it had led me to the wrong conclusion, that her purpose was to kill her family, or to remove those who were close to her.

But in reality, the biggest connection between the four of them is that they are either the stewards of the house or the stewards of the house, or they are the stewards of the house who can manage their own business by being by my side.

This meant that on the night they were on duty, they could control anyone in the mourning hall and bear the brunt of the responsibility.

Lan Xin was now even more accurate and cautious. Once anything strange happened to Lu Kui, he would definitely not do it by accident. He would either do it by himself or send someone he trusted to deal with the matter first and then approve it himself.

In the mourning hall, other than Ying'er and Wen Lian, who are the two most trusted maidservants in my courtyard, who else could they be?

The jump of the gust of wind and the sudden appearance of the candle flame was the beginning of the plot!

It was the clear night of the next day. Suddenly, a strong wind blew and the candles shook. Furthermore, it was in a place like the mourning hall. Anyone could not help but feel a bit panicked, right?

As the person in charge, Lu Kui naturally had to stand out and maintain order.

As long as the hand that touched the cool cake touched the candle, the layer of sealing wax that was wrapped around the candle would slowly melt, and the "Bloodshed" hidden in the candle would continuously be heated up by the candle flame and then evaporate, spraying onto the coffin that had already been painted with special paint, causing the layer of paint to fall off and form a blood coffin.

I held the candle and sighed to myself.

Really, what a coincidence!

Did Lan Xin's arrow hit several times?

Once the matter of the blood coffin came out, everyone's hearts were in panic. Even now, they still couldn't suppress it. The servants that went in and out didn't seem to care at all.

My most trusted overseer is still unconscious, whether he can be saved or not is not certain. Since the outer court has also broken up a Ma woman, I still need to once again draw out the manpower to take care of Aunt Chen and the family, and I don't have enough manpower in the mourning hall. The house has been thrown into chaos all of a sudden, and if I want to get it right again, it won't be possible for me to save two or three months.

On the other side, her grandmother was in a hurry to move out of the house, and even her mother's funeral was being carried out. It took time to choose from the old servants' homes in the manor, or to buy from a man's teeth.

In addition, the three brothers, Cheng, Yi, and Xin, had already been at home for two to three months. It wasn't right for them to idly live in the inner chamber like this, or hire a tutor or extend their teaching time. If he were to go to school, he would definitely have to have a few similarly aged attendants accompanying him. This was an additional matter.

These things would probably take another two to three months to settle.

As the year neared, the calculation of money and food, the exchange of favors, as well as the examination of the accounts of the inner and outer court were all things that could be seen in front of my eyes and were all waiting for me to complete them.

Lan Xin's technique makes me feel overwhelmed and overwhelmed!

Just as I was about to reach this point, I heard faint footsteps coming from the living room. There was a heavy sound coming from the front and a clear sound from the back, and also the faint scraping sound of someone's shoes on the ground. I immediately understood that this was the sound of Huang Man coming and hurriedly straightened my clothes, standing up from the table and waiting for the maidservants to invite him in.

Huang Gongzhong was wearing a light-green daoist robe today, but he was still carrying his black medicine chest. His long hair was not tied up, but was casually tied with a ribbon and left behind.

From the looks of it, he seemed rather lazy.

His eyes secretly turned blue. It must be because of the restlessness of the night.

I lowered my eyes and pinched the corner of my sleeve, telling myself.

What does it have to do with you?

Don't cause trouble!

Huang Lang also lowered his eyes, looking as if he didn't want to see me. There was no sadness or joy on his face, it was as white as a piece of paper.

I felt the corner of my mouth twitch.

I'm used to seeing how he acts without any rules, but to suddenly become so arrogant, I'm really not used to it!

This feeling of being at a loss of what to do was extremely obvious only when one saw Jiang Ming.

I quickly got rid of my ridiculous thoughts and told him about the discovery of the candle.

"Oh!"

Huang Gangzhong nodded his head with an unfathomable expression on his face.

Lan Lingyun hurriedly gave him the candle.

Huang Gangzhong thought for a moment and took a few steps towards the front of the case.

Because this person had always disregarded common sense, I actually felt a faint fear in my heart. I hurriedly retreated two steps back, pressing my back against the bookshelf before stopping.

Huang Man raised his eyelids in surprise.

I pursed my lips at him in embarrassment, concealing what I had just done.

He understood what was going on and sighed deeply.

I pretended not to hear.

He first brought the candle to his nose to smell it, then cut off a thin piece and put it to his lips. He tasted it, then buried his head in his case and took out some bottles and jars, scooped them one on each side and added a drop on the other. He placed the candle in it, and soon it melted into a puddle of milky water.

He held the bottle close to his nose and sniffed it.

He actually had an excited expression on his face!

Then he waved at me with the bottle of fruit and said with a face full of smiles, "If I didn't know about you, I would have thought that you were the one who made this bottle of poison! Your guess is right! "

"It is indeed a mixture of two drugs. One is the Sour Grass Juice, which is what you all call 'Blood Vampirism'. The other is the Intestine Breaking Grass, which has poisoned quite a few people in your family. "

I feel that the familiar man, Huang Luochong, is back.

Then, he took a deep breath and said, "The person who concocted this medicine is truly marvelous!"

How could something that could harm the lives of four people still be called marvelous?

I couldn't help but furrow my brows and ask, "Why do you say that?"

Huang Lang answered with a straight face, "From generation to generation, my family taught me medicine and I never knew of it. The combination of the Gut Cutting poison and Blizzard grass can counteract each other's scent. Such an exquisite recipe should only exist in the secret books hidden in the palace. "

Hidden in the palace... Secret book?

Lan Xin could actually see this?

I thought that Lan Xin was just an ordinary dark guard at the side of Prince Qi.

Who would have thought that it would have such a great reputation!

However, since this subordinate was able to read even the secret book hidden in the palace, why did he have to go to so much trouble to search for the secret of the late emperor's death?

One had to know that the palace had intertwined connections and connections. It was even harder to hide secrets than it was in the Wealthy Class manor.

Even if the new emperor ascended to the throne, he could slaughter all the court members who knew of him for reasons of caution. However, he could not slaughter all the eunuchs and eunuchs who were serving at the royal bed, including the Minister of the Interior, the Minister of Imperial Army, the Grand Magistrate of the Army, and the East and West, who were loyal only to the emperor, completely.

As long as someone was alive, the news would spread.

In fact, I always felt that it was irrational for the king to place all his hopes on the Xue Clan even though the answer to the riddle still needs to be unraveled.

But when I think of the king's high-spirited, headstrong attitude, I feel that if I say something like that, it will be of no use except to make it difficult for myself.

So I simply shut my mouth and waited for the time to splatter.

Three minutes had passed since he sent Huang Lang off. I went to the West Room to look for justice. I paid my respects to my grandmother, but there was only Doll left in the room.

"Mom is already accompanying Second Young Master."

There was a look of grievance on Doll's face.

I didn't expect such a thing to happen in my house.

"What about your sister Lan Xi?"

"Elder sister couldn't win against mother, but was afraid that Miss wouldn't know the situation, so she left me to follow her."

It was most likely that old woman who wanted to intimidate Lan Xi the moment she entered the door.

Youlan Xi had never been in charge of anything and didn't know how to deal with things. She wasn't smart enough to understand what I had said, so she panicked and got led around by the nose.

I nodded. "You can come with me!"

Tao Er replied and hurriedly followed behind me.

Entering Grandmother's house, that woman was standing at the entrance of the side hall with the head maid by Aunt Mo's side. When she saw me enter, she hurried to greet me with a smile and spoke, "Miss, as you haven't come out since the entire time, this servant …"

I secretly pinched Lan Lan's arm.

Lan Li understood, and took a step forward, giving her a sudden slap on the face when she wasn't paying attention.

"Pa!"

A crisp sound.

The maidservants who had been gathered in a group and whispering in the corner suddenly stopped talking. For a moment, it was so quiet that even a needle falling could be heard.

Lan Lingyun smiled and said, "Mother, you don't know, this is the rule of our house. Upon seeing xiaojie, he didn't wait for xiaojie to nod her head before standing up and clapping his hands together. As if there was nothing else to say, Ye Zichen slapped him once again. "Mom, you just arrived, so you don't know the rules, so I'll only give you a tip."

Mrs. Huang's eyes were wide open as she covered her face with her hands. Her face was filled with disbelief.

Lan Li raised her eyebrows and asked, "You have a grudge in your heart, aren't you going to admit your wrongs?"

The servant girl who was initially talking to the Huang Clan saw that the situation wasn't looking good and hurriedly ran away, leaving the Huang Clan standing there, facing the group of servants behind me. She seemed exceptionally insignificant.

Madam Huang could only cover her face and kneel down.

I looked at Mrs. Huang, who was lying on the ground, and my heart grew colder.

Seeing that my every move has been somewhat passive recently, you think that you can take advantage of me?

Aunt Mo, are you thinking too highly of me?

Even you don't dare to act so atrociously in front of me, and instead, you want to assign a lowly servant to act arrogantly in front of me?

If there's a road to heaven, you won't walk it. If there's no door to hell, you'll step in!

It just so happened that everyone's heart wasn't at peace these days, so they might as well cause a ruckus. I'll start with you and kill the chickens for the monkeys to see!

"Mom, please get up!"

I coldly spoke and revealed a faint smile. I gently caressed the pattern on my sleeve and said, "The laws of the country and the rules of the family. If there are no rules, it is not within a certain range. Mother, you were sent by Aunt Mo to take care of second brother, so I can't say much about you. However, if you see that I'm a little girl and want to bully me, then you can't do anything about it.

Come to my yard, and you shall obey my rules.

I don't care who you think in your heart, or who you think in your heart, but in face of face, you shouldn't show it.

I'm afraid you don't have the qualifications to cause a ruckus in my yard!

Madam Huang was kneeling on the ground with her head down. She did not utter a single word and just dripped her tears onto the ground.

A few mothers who worked in the hall of their grandmothers rushed forward to escort me. As they guided me through the door, they smiled and said, "Miss, you are a pampered guest. How could we dare to offend you? Actually, this Sister Huang is confused because there are too many things going on at home today. Miss, please don't take her as a big shot! "

He met Hong Yu at the entrance and hurriedly rushed out. He lifted the curtain from the doorstep and urged me, "I heard your voice just now and waited for a long time, but I didn't see any trace of you. "I've been waiting for you to start your meal, the old lady is urging me to come out and find you!"

I nodded and instructed Lan with a few words, leaving those who came with me outside while I followed Hong Yu into the inner room.

As expected, everyone had already arrived.

Looking back, it had been a long time since he had seen so many people together.

Ever since my mother's death and the funeral had been handed to me, I had come to my grandmother's house to greet her, except in the morning and evening, and spent all day in my courtyard, waiting for my mother's wives to come in and speak to me.

It was the first evening meal I had had with my grandmother this month.

A large round table made out of pear wood sat in the middle, with his grandmother in the middle of it all, and the first seat on the right was occupied by his wife, who was sitting upright and with a straight face. She seemed to be in a trance as she stared down at the plate in front of her, as if she were in a trance; she was too young to serve him, so she set another table beside the kang, where the wet nurse was sitting on the kang, half-leaning against it, coaxing him to play.

Aunt Chen and Aunt Wang stood behind their grandmother, one on each side, each holding a bowl and a spoon in their hands. It was obvious that they were preparing to serve their grandmother some food.

Everyone in the room had a different look on their faces as I entered.

I smiled.
