After His Majesty was reborn, the poor little girl in his previous life was spoiled to death

In an instant, the hall fell into silence. Everyone fell silent and looked towards the maid.

Compared to Qiu Yun, this girl was unremarkable. She looked up in panic, her eyes wandering: "Yes, yes..."

"Who is it?" Old Madam Zhu shouted, "Tell the truth now!"

The girl shuddered and cried out in a sobbing voice, "Yes, it's Madam."

Everyone was in an uproar.

Luo Miaoyun's mind went blank for a moment, and after a few breaths, she finally reacted. She was so angry that her whole body was shaking. She slammed the table and screamed, "Absurd! How dare you slander me!"

The girl was frightened by her harsh words and shrank back. She knelt a few steps forward and cried to Old Madam Zhu, "I really don't dare. If it weren't for Madam Hou's order, why would we do this hard work?"

Luo Miaoyun hurriedly left her seat and said to the old lady, "Mother, you must not believe this slave's nonsense. Such clumsy words are simply ridiculous! Madam Liu is my wet nurse and Bai Juan is my maid. If I had asked them to take care of Liu, why would I have gone to such great lengths to find someone?"

She pointed her finger at the maid and said sternly, "Tell me! Who is behind you framing the mistress?"

The maid choked with fear and sobbed, "Madam, didn't you send a message saying that the Marquis's Mansion abused Madam Liu? To prevent any accidents, you ordered us to take good care of her in private."

"She also said," she reached out to pull Qiujun, "that if Sister Qiujun serves well, she will be allowed to return to Cangbai Hall as a favor."

Qiu Jun slowly raised her head, tears welling in her eyes, and said in a sad voice: "Madam, if you want to beat me or punish me, Qiu Jun is willing to bear it, but don't you take your promise seriously?"

Shen Chongyao and Ning'er looked at each other and felt that the scene before them was inexplicably absurd.

Before he had the chance to interrogate her biological mother, Shen Chengying's wet nurse Li, and find out what Qiu Jun had done after she was demoted, she suddenly jumped out and caused such a big show.

Qiu Jun cried and swung a heavy hammer: "If it weren't for Madam's special instructions to keep Madam Liu far away, we would have found an inconspicuous small courtyard outside the mansion to place her."

Madam Zhu was still unconvinced, but after hearing this, she couldn't help but become suspicious: "What did you say? Where is Liu Kui? If you dare to lie, I will expose your skin!"

Qiu Yun cried, "I dare not. If you don't believe me, you can send someone to look for me. Go in from the east entrance of Sanchun Lane, and on the right hand side of the second fork, there is a courtyard with a separate door and a house!"

Luo Miaoyun's face turned pale. At this point, she knew that today's so-called encounter and search for someone was a trap set up, waiting for her to fall into it.

It's really ridiculous that there are still people who believe in such a crude method.

She said "yes" several times and sneered, "If mother believed the lies of this kind of people, your daughter-in-law would be dead today. I only have one thing to say, I know nothing about Liu Kui's affairs, and these two girls..." Her eyes pierced through them fiercely, "They have nothing to do with me."

At this critical moment, what Luo Peng said came to her mind. He was right. She was still thinking about rescuing Mother Liu in vain. She was afraid that Liu Kui had already colluded with others and betrayed her!

Madam Zhu remained silent, and it was obvious that she was struggling with her conscience. After a long while, she said in a deep voice, "Chongyao, take these two girls away and interrogate them strictly. Send someone to Sanchun Lane to find out what happened."

Luo Miaoyun stood up suddenly, she put her hand on her chest, her eyes gradually became fierce. In the cold porcelain bottle was the poison that Luo Peng gave her. The poison that she had to avoid was her only bargaining chip now.

She said stiffly, "Mother, I am not feeling well, so I will take my leave first. Ying'er, Yao'er," she looked at her bewildered daughter, "Follow mother."

Ning'er clenched her fists, a sense of foreboding spread in her heart. Her heart beat rapidly, and she wished she could follow Luo Miaoyun and leave.

Madam Zhu leaned back dejectedly, looked at Shen Chongyao, and said tiredly: "I'll leave this matter to you. Xiuyu, help me down."

Mrs. Xiang had already led her children and parents back to her own courtyard. In less than half an incense stick of time, the lively banquet was over, the lights were turned off, and it became deserted in an instant.

Shen Chongyao stood in the hall, showing a rare look of confusion. His mother asked him to go find someone, which meant that he believed the two girls' words. Luo Miaoyun left without caring. Even if this matter fell on him, he went to find Liu Kui, and then what?

"Second Master!" How could he still be in a daze at this critical moment? Ning Er said angrily: "Hurry up, otherwise it will be too late!"

Shen Chongyao asked in confusion: "What do you mean it's too late?"

Ning Er stamped her feet anxiously. She didn't have time to explain too much to him, so she could only say directly: "Mrs. Luo has a deadly poison on her hands! Go find her quickly!"

Shen Chongyao almost thought he had heard it wrong: "What!"

----

"My Lord, the Second Master firmly refused to accept it, so why do you force him?" Xiang Ming helped Shen Chongyan lie down, frowning and said, "It won't be too late to deal with this matter after you get better."

Shen Chongyan shook his head with difficulty: "You don't understand. By the time I get better, it will be too late. After the banquet, you still take the things to find my second brother and tell him that it was my idea and ask him to accept it."

Xiang Ming had no choice but to agree, and said distressedly: "Please take a rest first, I will do as you say."

While the master and servant were talking, they heard a noise outside. Xiang Ming hurriedly lifted the curtain and went out, whispering to the little maid on duty outside: "The Marquis is resting, what is the noise?"

When she looked up, she saw a gentle and beautiful woman standing in front of her. She was startled and hurried forward to greet her: "Auntie Ye, why are you here at this time?"

Ye Zhen's face flushed with sickness. She looked at Xiang Ming and said, "It's very lively outside. I thought it was quiet here, so I wanted to come over and take a look."

Xiang Ming said tactfully, "My aunt is thoughtful, but the Marquis has already gone to bed."

Ye Zhen looked inside and asked, "Is the Marquis the only one in there?"

Xiang Ming was a little surprised. Who else could it be? She nodded: "That's right."

Aunt Ye listened to her answer but had no intention of leaving. Instead, she walked to the couch on the side of the room and sat down. She smiled and said, "I drank two more glasses of wine. I feel a little dizzy now. Please pour me a cup of tea."

Having said so much, Xiang Ming couldn't chase her away, so he could only tell the maid to make a pot of sobering tea.

Aunt Ye said she was drunk, and as expected, she didn't say a word. She sat on the couch and drank tea one cup after another. From time to time, she looked out, as if she was waiting for someone.

Seeing Xiang Ming still standing in front of her, she smiled gently and said, "Miss, if you don't want to go serve the Marquis, why are you here guarding me?"

Xiang Ming didn't answer, but just bowed to her and turned back to the inner room. Shen Chongyan half closed his eyes and asked softly, "Who is it?"

"It's Madam Ye." Xiang Ming reached out and lowered the curtain for the Marquis. "She looks drunk. You just need to take a rest."

Shen Chongyan opened his eyes and frowned, "Why is it her?"
