The Duke's Daughter is Reborn
Chapter 454 Trichosanthes (2)
Originally, according to Mrs. Xu's idea, the dress that Yang Qi would wear to the Queen's banquet must be made by the best tailor shop.
After all, this is an important social occasion, and dressing appropriately is crucial for Yang Qi.
However, things went against one's wishes. The flower-viewing banquet was approaching, and the famous clothing shops in the imperial city were busy making clothes for the powerful and had no time to take care of other things.
As an excluded mansion, the Duke of Song's Mansion naturally could not be compared with those prominent nobles. Even if they wanted to find a good shop to make Yang Qi's clothes, it had already been reserved by other more powerful people.
The production level of those ordinary shops is probably not as good as that of the embroiderers in the mansion.
In desperation, Xu had to decide to ask the embroiderer in the mansion to make clothes for Yang Qi.
Although this is not the most ideal choice, it can at least ensure that the quality and style of the clothing will not be too bad.
Moreover, because the old lady and Mrs. Xu paid much attention to Yang Qi during this period, there were special people responsible for taking care of Yang Qi's clothes and diet, which made Mrs. Xu feel a little more at ease.
In this way, it would be relatively easy for Nanny Zhu and Mother He to find out the person behind the scenes.
They only need to carefully inquire about the situation in the mansion, especially those people related to Yang Qi's dress, and they will find some clues.
Nanny Zhu and Mama He have always been cautious people. Otherwise, they probably wouldn't have noticed so quickly that someone had tampered with Yang Qi's dress.
You know, this time Yang Qi's dress was carefully made by three embroiderers.
After a detailed interrogation by Nanny Zhu, it was finally confirmed that these three embroiderers had absolutely no opportunity or motive to do anything.
However, at this moment, a key clue surfaced - Bicao, a first-class maid beside the fifth lady Yanghe, actually went to the embroidery house during these days and claimed that she wanted the embroiderer to rework a dress.
Yang He's dresses are all tailored by the Duke's Mansion every season.
Now was not the time to distribute new clothes, so it seemed particularly strange that Bicao came to ask the embroiderer to redo her work.
Every step in the production of Yang Qi's dress was strictly inspected by a dedicated person, so the problem obviously occurred after Bicao came to the embroidery institute.
With this important discovery, Nanny Zhu already had a plan in mind. She believed that this matter was most likely because Fifth Miss Yang He was jealous of Yang Qi's entry into the palace, so she was secretly doing evil things.
After hearing what Nanny Zhu said, Yang Qi's eyes dimmed slightly, and a surge of anger rose in his heart.
What Aunt Yin and Song Yanghe did to me when I was a child, and those two old accounts that have not yet been settled, now they are plotting against me again.
It seems that because I didn't let them suffer before, they are so unscrupulous to attack me again.
Ever since Aunt Yin cleverly used the "miscarriage" incident to successfully bring down Mrs. An, her status in Song Hongwen's heart has been at its peak.
During this period of time, everyone in the mansion was amazed at how favored Concubine Yin was, and they all secretly speculated whether Concubine Yin could be promoted by the Duke to become the mistress of the Duke Song's Mansion.
After all, Song Hongwen had experienced the death of three wives, and finding a suitable woman in the capital to be his wife was harder than climbing to the sky.
While everyone was talking, Yang Qi was quietly doing his own thing in the room.
She turned and walked to the bookshelf behind her, gently opened a small wooden box, and then took out a small bottle from it.
Her right hand was hidden under her sleeve, rubbing gently for a while.
After a while, Yang Qi thought about what had happened and made up his mind. He took out some medicine powder from the medicine box and carefully applied it on his wrist.
Not long after, some tiny red spots appeared on Yang Qi's wrists, which looked somewhat shocking.
Nanny Zhu, who was standing nearby, was initially puzzled by Yang Qi's behavior, but when she saw the red spots on Yang Qi's wrists, she suddenly understood.
It turns out that the young lady does not intend to keep silent this time, but wants to settle all the new and old grudges together!
After shaking his arms, Yang Qi said to Madam Zhu and Madam He, "Please invite Second Aunt to Linhu Courtyard first."
When Xu heard that Yang Qi was in trouble, she quickly put down the account book in her hand and rushed over from Shi'an Courtyard. When she saw the spots on Yang Qi's wrist, she was shocked: "How could this be?"
Fearing that Xu was too worried, Yang Qi hurriedly told Xu the whole story in detail.
After hearing this, Xu showed a look of anger on her face and blamed her, "You kid, since you already know Yang He's conspiracy, why don't you just take the dress and come to the old lady? Why do you have to torture yourself like this?"
Seeing this, Yang Qi quickly put on a flattering look and explained: "Aunt, don't worry, this medicine was specially prepared for me by Zong Yue. The effect is very mild and will not have much impact on me. Moreover, the red mark on the wrist will naturally fade in two days, and it will definitely not delay my entry into the palace."
She thought to herself, if she didn't make some wounds, how would she have a reason to go to the old lady to ask for an explanation later?
After a brief pause, Yang Qi continued, "Aunt, Aunt Yin has always been an ambitious person.
Over the years, she and Yang He have done a lot of bad things to me.
This is not the first time something like this has happened.
However, I will report the specific situation to everyone in detail when I arrive at the old lady's yard.
Today, I must seek justice for myself!"
Yang Qi's words completely overturned Xu's original attitude and opinion towards Aunt Yin and Yang He.
Over the years, Aunt Yin has always been cautious and kind to others at home, and Yang He also looks innocent and lively.
If not for this, why would Xu have been so concerned when Yang He asked for a nanny and a teacher to teach her? She simply hoped that Yang He would have a better future, improve her talents and character, and find a good husband.
Now it seems that all this hypocrisy was just a disguise for Aunt Yin's life in Duke Song's Mansion, and she has completely deceived me!
In fact, Aunt Yin's kindness towards Xu was not all pretense.
For so many years, Xu was the mistress of the second house, and Yin was the concubine of the first house, and the two of them had never interfered with each other.
In addition, Xu had always held the power of the housekeeper, and the monthly wages and shares of Aunt Yin and Yanghe were all in Xu's hands, so they had always been close to her.
