Chapter 345 Consummation (3)
Ning Xi sighed, and said "with good intentions": "Sister, Xiao Ying is gone. The Fourth Madam overslept and didn't know the situation. I was going to greet you. When I saw her door was open, I pushed it open to have a look. , wanting to say hello to her, who would have expected... to find such a thing."
"Where's the maid? Who was on duty yesterday?" Sun Yao ignored Ning Xi and asked Ning Yue instead.
Ning Yue said softly: "It was Yuzhu and Qiuxiang."
"Huh? They?" Ning Xi covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and cried out in surprise.
Everyone cast their eyes on her with a swish.
As if realizing her gaffe, she lowered her eyes, clenched the handkerchief tightly with her hands, and said at a loss: "That... I... I'm sure if I read it wrong. I'm pregnant, and I wake up many nights, I can't sleep well, and I listen to you in the middle of the night When I heard a strange sound, I asked Cuilan to go out to see if there were thieves in the mansion... Cuilan, tell everyone what you watched last night."
"Yes." Cuilan bowed, and said to everyone, "Last night, my aunt said it was very noisy. Who stays up in the middle of the night and walks around in the corridor? The servant girl pushed the door and went out. Just in time, she saw Qiuxiang and Yuzhu walking forward. After a while, I left Zhihui Courtyard. The servant girl looked at Qiuxiang as if she was following Yuzhu."
Ning Xi took over the conversation and continued: "I came to say hello to the Fourth Madam this morning, but I actually wanted to ask, what was Qiu Xiang doing chasing Yuzhu out in the heavy rain last night?"
In one conversation, he did not specify that Qiuxiang and Yuzhu stole Sakura, but he did tell everyone that Qiuxiang was secretly following Yuzhu. Qiuxiang is a maidservant, she is new here, without her master's orders, would she dare to do this? And Yuzhu is from Xuanyin, and she said that she is from the Wangfu when she grows up. Ning Yue asked Qiuxiang to stare at her. Is she worried about Xuanyin or the Wangfu?
The intention here is so intriguing.
"Ma Ningyue!" The princess almost ran away, her eyes were wide open, and her beautiful face gradually distorted due to the anger at the moment.
Ning Yue lowered her head slightly, and did not argue for herself, but her neither humble nor overbearing aura really annoyed the princess.
Seeing that Wangfei's fire was almost extinguished, Ning Xi hurriedly added the last spoonful of fuel: "Hey, Fourth Madam, what are you doing to ask Qiuxiang to follow Yuzhu? There is no one in the room, when will Xiao Ying Those who are missing don’t know.”
That's right, if Ning Yue hadn't become suspicious of Yuzhu and sent Qiuxiang to follow her out, no one would have known what happened to Sakura.
When the princess thinks of her miserable daughter, she can't wait to swallow this culprit alive!
Sun Yao stood aside, looked at the concubine, and then at Ning Yue. For a moment, she didn't know who to help. She was originally jealous and annoyed that Ning Yue and Ning Xi got close, but now seeing Ning Xi's drama against Ning Yue, she believed that the relationship between the two sisters was really at odds. It's just—should I plead for mercy?
"Concubine Mother." She said, "Send someone to find Sakura first."
Princess Nodded, Biqing led the people out.
Ning Xi's eyes flashed, and he said: "Let's go and search separately, the palace is so big, it's always good to have more people to help."
Her suggestion was good, the princess did not refuse, but unexpectedly, Ning Yue spoke slowly: "Before looking for someone, I want to ask Aunt Ma and Cuilan a few words."
Wang Hao frowned, when is this, and she still wants to ask someone? Is it important to ask questions, or to find her daughter?
Ning Yue didn't seem to see the displeasure on Wang Hao's face. She can understand that Wang Hao loves her daughter dearly, but it doesn't replace her. She will let herself carry the scapegoat all the time.
