The stand-in didn't take it seriously for three years, and the minister was furious when they b

When she looked up, she still had an innocent look of being completely confused, which made the old lady almost vomit blood:

"you?"

This idiot!

Can't you just make up an excuse and say that the two of them were being plotted against?

According to the original plan, as long as she touched the things stained with snakeberry juice they gave her and then smelled the scent of the autumn mandrake flowers on the maid, she would fall into a coma. Sang Xi only needed to put her away and light the aphrodisiac incense in the room.

Both drugs are short-lived and intense.

For the sake of credibility, they took every detail into consideration, even the incense ash was mixed with aphrodisiac incense and ordinary osmanthus scent, so that once burned out, no trace would be left.

On the other hand, Ling Yuchi only needs to bring the foreign man into the room and everything will be fine.

Although the old lady didn't know how these two people became the cause in the end, she probably knew that it must be related to the aphrodisiac. She had to find a reasonable outsider to take the blame in order to reduce the damage to the reputation of the first house and the marquis's mansion. She was the most suitable person, but she didn't expect her to be so unreasonable.

"You don't know who knows?"

The old lady was furious as she was scolding him. She looked around and was thinking of finding another maid to be a scapegoat. At the same time, Qi Rui, who had been staring at Mu Lianzhi in a daze for a long time, spoke first:

"Madam, you have to ask the person involved. Why are you always staring at the Second Madam?"

"Look, she was scared silly~"

"Brother Yuchi, what did you want her to admit to in her room? Why don't you just tell her? It's pitiful enough that she married your son and became a widow at such a young age. Why are you bullying her?"

When she heard someone speaking for her, she turned around and waved her hands in fear, but still bowed to him softly:

"Thank you for your righteous words, but you may have misunderstood. Mother, my elder brother and his wife are all very good to me. There is no rift between us."

After he finished speaking, Mu Lianzhi did not forget to praise him in a low voice:

"Sir, you are such a good person."

With just one look, Qi Rui's soul was almost hooked. He straightened his chest in a daze, and his voice softened a little:

"As I should, as I should. I hate bullying the weak."

Seeing this scene, the old lady and Jiang almost got so angry that they fell backwards. Turning around, the old lady finally looked at Ling Yuchi:

"Why don't you tell me what's going on?"

"Mother, son, son..."

Ling Yuchi hesitated and couldn't say anything for a long time, because the order he received was to bring Qi Rui to this room in the name of looking after the child, and he didn't have to take care of what happened afterwards.

He figured out the overall plan by inquiring and exploring it privately.

He knew that the person in the room was Mu Lianzhi, and that Mu Lianzhi might have been fed that kind of drug. He was just tempted by her beauty, so he deliberately moved Qi Rui away for a while, planning to take advantage of the time difference so that he could get there first and take advantage of her first.

Originally, I thought that we could resolve the issue quickly so that it would not affect subsequent events, and no one would know about it if Qi Rui took the blame, thus having the best of both worlds.

He completely forgot that Jiang had told him not to stay in the room for too long. Ever since he learned about the plan, all he could think about was finding loopholes. When he entered the room and saw the familiar silk flowers on the floor, he thought the person on the bed was Mu Lianzhi.

Later, he was dazed and saw blurry figures. He thought it was her, and he was so excited that he couldn't control himself. The two of them...

Now his mind is full of the fact that he made mistakes and got caught. His brain has been blocked for a long time. How dare he speak out his dirty thoughts?

Disappointed, the old lady turned her gaze to Sang Xi on the bed:

"you say!"

At this time, the bed curtains were half drawn, Sang Xi's hair was disheveled, and the quilt was rolled up to her neck. She only had a vague idea of ​​what had happened, but she was happy with the outcome.

She has entered the Marquis's Mansion as a concubine, and she doesn't want to be kicked out of the house or be a widow all her life when her son grows up, and end up having to support him in old age. Ling Yuchi is his best choice.

Even if she was a concubine, as long as it was true, she could still live and fight. Besides, she was younger than Jiang. Compared with status, how could a man's favor be more important?

She can even outlast Jiang to death.

So, she had been thinking about it for a long time, but she just never found the opportunity.

Mu Lianzhi was of low status, and the Marquis' Mansion wanted to get rid of her. She knew this when Ling Wenzhan was alive. Today, she was just cooperating and didn't expect it to end like this.

She naturally understood what the old lady meant. After a moment of contemplation, she knelt down on the bed:

"Old Madam, you can see clearly that even if I have no shame, I would never do such a thing in broad daylight when the house is full of guests. I don't know how I fell asleep. I was so confused that I felt like I was dreaming. I couldn't help myself at all."

"Today there are many guests waiting for you to receive them. How could you do such a foolish thing?"

"Madam, we may have been tricked by someone. Please give us your advice."

At this time, Jiang also came to her senses and glared at the two of them, but still said:

"I told you guys that there are more nights than enough time to leave, and you didn't even pick a time. You must have been framed."

"Sister-in-law, don't blame us for blaming you. You are the only master in the whole yard except for the two of you. Your things are all on the ground. Who else could it be but you?"

"Besides, your family is a medical family. Even though you haven't studied medicine, mice's children can dig holes. How could you not know what medicine to use?"

"How come everything went wrong just now after you came here?"

"Could it be that you are jealous of the continuous happy events in our eldest wife's house, and you can't find any opportunities with other people, so you set your sights on the concubine who just came in?"

"If you feel uncomfortable, you can speak up. If I hadn't happened to come here, who knows what would have happened. Who would believe you if you said you had nothing to do with it?"

She pointed at the silk flowers on the ground. Now that things had come to this, she could only try her best to preserve the reputation of the eldest wife. The more she could pull the wool over her eyes, the better. The more she talked about it, the more she felt that it was true.

There was a moment of silence at the scene. This time, many eyes fell directly on Mu Lianzhi, and they were obviously shaken.

Looking up, Mu Lianzhi sneered:

"Sister-in-law, you should ask your brother why he is here. Even if someone really drugged them, how do you know they didn't just use it to have fun? Maybe they were just forced by your jealousy and had no choice but to do it today when there are many guests."

"Everyone in the Marquis' Mansion knows that you have driven my concubine to the old courtyard of our second house since she entered the house. The master has never spent a night in my concubine's room until now."

"I have no one to rely on, but you can't just throw dirty water on me."

"Did I ask my eldest brother to come here, or did I ask these people to come? Didn't I spend so much time and effort planning this just to cause this trouble for your eldest room?"

"What am I planning for?"

Lowering her eyes, she still shed a few golden beans in grievance.

Looking from afar, Beitang Yi felt heartbroken, and the veins on the side of his neck were faintly throbbing.
