Transmigrated into a short-lived widow? Cold-faced uncle fights for my life

Hua Cui did not dare to hide it and told Jiang Mingwei everything she observed after entering her room again.

This naturally included the traces she saw on the window paper.

"I'm not sure if that's the trace of the incense, but I think it should be. The last time I cleaned, there was no round hole. Why it appeared today, I really don't know!"

Wei Jing narrowed his eyes dangerously, with a chill in his eyes.

He stood up and immediately asked Hua Cui to lead the way to check the situation.

At this moment, the General's Mansion seemed calm, but in fact, there were undercurrents. Everyone could see that Wei Jing's brows were as cold as ice, and all the servants stayed away from him, fearing that he would scold them...

When we arrived at the courtyard, the maids and servants had all returned.

Faced with Hua Cui and Chun Xing's questions, everyone looked frightened, put their hands nervously in front of them, shook their heads at them, and clearly looked like they didn't know what to do.

I didn’t find it. I really didn’t find it!

Jiang Mingwei was nowhere to be seen in the entire General's Mansion...

Hua Cui's steps were unsteady and she almost fainted, but she still took Wei Jing into Jiang Mingwei's bedroom.

He shouldn't have entered here, and he even hesitated for a moment when he walked in.

But now, Jiang Mingwei has disappeared.

When human life is at stake, he doesn't care about propriety, morality, or integrity.

Thinking of this, his eyes became sharp and he stepped in without saying a word!

As soon as he stepped in, the smell of the incense made Wei Jing pause slightly.

He was very sure that he had not smelled it wrong!

It's the smell of tulula again.

It was even stronger than before, almost permeating the entire room!

Then, he walked towards the incense that Hua Cui mentioned, and sure enough, there was a small hole in the window paper, and the area around the hole was gray-black.

At first glance, it is obvious that there are traces of smoke and fire!!

"There is no mistake. She was indeed given a drug. If nothing unexpected happened, my sister-in-law must have been kidnapped."

Hua Cui's mind went blank and she almost fainted. Fortunately, Chun Xing held her up.

"How could it be? How could the young lady be kidnapped for no reason? Even if the young lady had many enemies in the past, she has been in contact with them ever since she married into the Wei Mansion. Why did someone suddenly kidnap her last night? This shouldn't be the case..."

Hua Cui muttered to herself, her face full of sadness.

She didn't know when it started, but she felt that the young lady was getting better and better. Compared to the young lady who used to beat and scold her, she liked Jiang Mingwei more who now shared everything with her, considered her, and no longer treated her as a slave, but as a good friend and sister!

She really didn't want anything to happen to the young lady.

If something happened to the young lady, she would never live in vain!

It had not been long since she fell off the cliff last time, and she had thought that after this disaster, the young lady would surely live a long life.

Now it seems that she was wrong.

There are still people who don't want the young lady to have an easy life...

Why, the young lady's life has to be so miserable, why does she have to bear all this?

It's not fair. It's really not fair at all...

"Don't you smell a fragrance in this room?"

After thinking for a long time, Wei Jing couldn't help but ask.

His voice was cold and serious, but when everyone heard it, they all showed puzzled expressions and looked at each other with disapproval on their faces.

"Second Master, this is Madam's room after all. Women all use incense, and Madam has been buying all kinds of spices lately, so our yard is often filled with fragrance. Is there anything wrong with this?"

Seeing that Hua Cui was exhausted and crying so hard that she almost couldn't breathe, Chun Xing had to answer for her.

Wei Jing had a cold expression, shook his head seriously, and his eyes were cold and stern.

"I'm not talking about ordinary incense! You may not know this, but Hua Cui, you often follow my sister-in-law to buy spices. Don't you think this fragrance is extremely strange? Did you really buy this kind of spice?"

"Do you know the name of this spice and its price?"

Wei Jing asked in a cold voice. Hua Cui didn't understand and sobbed, with confusion and doubt on her face.

Nanny Song stepped forward and reminded seriously.

"Just answer whatever the Second Young Master asks. Don't worry about anything else! There is a faint fragrance in this room. It's very strange. It doesn't seem like the popular incense in the capital. I have never smelled it before."

Hearing the two of them speak, Hua Cui quickly said yes!

She wiped away her tears and began to smell the incense in the room. Soon she thought of -

"This scent..."

She frowned and smelled for a long time, finally confirming it.

He quickly walked to Jiang Mingwei's dressing table, opened the drawer, took out the bluish-white jade pendant, handed it to Wei Jing, and asked, "Second Master, smell it and see if it's the smell on it."

But just as Wei Jing moved it closer, a strong scent of Tora made him frown, and he subconsciously moved it further away.

He nodded to Hua Cui, his eyes full of sharpness.

"Yes, that's the scent! Where does it come from? This spice always sticks to you after you go to the spice shop."

"I never asked you before. Now I think I made a mistake. I should have asked you at that time."

Hua Cui suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart and asked in a low voice.

"Second Master, is there any problem with this spice?"

"Now I am not sure whether my sister-in-law's disappearance is related to this spice? But I guess there must be a certain connection. This spice is not from Nanjing, but from the North. It should not be introduced into the capital because it has a very addictive effect."

"If you smell it for a long time, you will gradually become dependent on it, and you will never be able to leave it. Your whole life will be controlled by it. After all, asking a woman about incense is too private, so I never asked my sister-in-law."

"I thought I had avoided suspicion, but now it seems... I might have harmed her!"

Wei Jing no longer concealed anything and told him everything about the Tuola incense.

Everyone was shocked. They didn't expect that such an evil thing from the northern frontier would be introduced to the capital!

Hua Cui suddenly staggered, and a strong taste of blood surged in her throat.

"Second Master said... this thing is from the northern frontier? Could it be related to the young lady's disappearance? The smell on this jade pendant was brought back from the spice shop. The shopkeeper said that if the jade pendant and spices are kept together for a long time, the smell will mix."

"Miss, you thought this smell was special, and you wanted to ask him for a batch of goods, but he said he didn't have any at the moment, and he would notify you when he had more in the future. If it's really like what you said, how could he give it to others just because he said so?"

Hua Cui became more and more frightened the more she thought about it. Recalling what happened yesterday, she quickly knelt on the ground and pleaded with Wei Jing in a pitiful voice.

"Please, Master, please save the young lady! The young lady has long felt that something is wrong with the spice shop. I beg you to check the spice shop. Maybe there is something wrong with them!"
