After being reborn as a widow, the mistress of the Hou family remarried a powerful official

Chapter 26 Detecting the real murderer
Ke Yiqing raised his eyebrows, "Where are the others?"

"Others...nothing."

There was a deathly silence in the room.

No...what on earth was she expecting that person to do?

She laughed at herself. In her previous life, she had no one to rely on. How come she felt dependent on him when she saw that bitch in her new life?

Ke Yiqing closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he was already filled with horror.

She must find out the murderer who harmed her and her children.

With the previous preparation, when Ke Yiqing proposed that she wanted to visit the Liyuan, Liuli agreed without hesitation.

Inside the carriage.

"I've been poisoned."

"How could the young lady be poisoned?"

Liuli's surprise didn't seem like she was faking it. Ke Yiqing carefully observed her expression, and after confirming that she was not lying, she said, "I'm also very confused. I thought I didn't have any enemies, so why did I get poisoned?"

After all, she has a delicate heart. After thinking about it for a while, Liuli came to her senses, "What do you mean, madam, the poison in our pear garden?"

"good."

Although it was the Marquis's carriage that sent them to the Liyuan, Ke Yiqing was worried and still called Zi Xing over.

It's not that she wants to be wary of Liuli, but she only has this one child and only one life. No one is worthy of complete trust, let alone Yan Ming's people?
Zi Xing still looked like a young girl, and she stared at Liuli closely as soon as she got on the carriage.

Fortunately, Liuli did not disappoint her. He only paused for a moment before saying, "Although I don't know why Madam dares to make such a conclusion, Madam is very kind to my family. If you can use her in any way, please don't be polite."

Ke Yiqing laughed from the bottom of his heart, "Okay."

As soon as she arrived at the Liyuan, it was logical that she should record and report it, but who asked her to follow Liuli, the chief housekeeper of the Liyuan, not only did she not record the report, but she also went through the trivial details of her previous dealings.

"Is everything recorded before?"

"Of course, since your Excellency was promoted, there are often people trying to fawn over you. There are so many people that it is difficult to check them all, so you came up with this trick. Over time, those people with evil intentions will not dare to come again."

Ke Yiqing sighed: "He is quite smart."

She turned to the records from more than a month ago, and a strange name appeared frequently.

"Who is this Li Ren?"

Liuli stepped forward to take a look, frowning and shaking her head, "This name..."

"how?"

The other party shook his head, "I feel it's very familiar, but I can't remember it for a while."

Ke Yiqing paid attention to the name, and then turned forward, only to find out of thin air a strange and unfamiliar name - Liu Lan.

If Li Ren alone can explain it, what about Liu Lan?

Her doubts deepened, and when she scrolled forward, nothing happened for a long time. She took a deep breath, and she didn't give up. Sure enough, when she turned to the records from two years ago, a man named Du Ruo had frequent contacts again.

Two and a half years, more than half a year, one month, poison from the palace...

Her eyes flashed and she said firmly: "It's Chu Yun."

Liuli was shocked and doubtful, and stepped forward to cover her lips, "Young madam, these two words are taboo in the Liyuan, and you must never mention them again."

She led people to the side courtyard and sighed: "As the housekeeper of the Liyuan, I don't even know. It looks like he is just an ordinary guest. How can Madam be sure that it is her?"

Ke Yiqing smiled and said, "Miss Liuli must know better than me what kind of place the Liyuan is. Why do you still say such meaningless words after you have arrived in such a place?"

Two and a half years ago, Chu Yun gave birth to the prince; more than half a year ago, she was sent to the opera house by her evil mother-in-law; a month ago, she informed Yan Ming of her pregnancy.

If these are all coincidences, then why is Liu Ruyi so secretive about the poison that is only available in the palace?Even Liuli, who seemed to be devoted to her, was protecting her!
After hearing these words, Liuli knew that she could no longer hide it, so she took the initiative to confess.

It turned out that Liu Ruyi had told her about the poisoning when she fainted in the opera house last time, but also promised that the poison would only make her lose her child and would not really harm her life.

"Young Madam, it's not that I'm a talkative slave, but it's your current status. If the child is born, do you know what the child will face?"

Liuli's face was full of disapproval. Obviously she also felt that the child could not be kept, but she only considered Yan Ming and did not care about Ke Yiqing's thoughts.

"Miss Liuli, you are working hard for Yan Ming, and there is nothing wrong with being considerate of everything for him. But I am also a person, and the child in my belly is also my child. Why should you have the final say whether to keep it or not?"

Ke Yiqing was very pretty and her tone was very soft, but Liuli's face turned pale after hearing this. It was nothing more than tearing off the fig leaf that she had always used.

"Madam, you still have an honorific title in the Liyuan, but if you leave the Liyuan, do you think the Prime Minister will let you go?"

She narrowed her eyes. Very good, he actually dared to threaten her.

Zi Xing also sensed the inappropriate atmosphere between the two and immediately stood in front of Ke Yiqing.

Ke Yiqing's expression warmed up when she saw this skinny little girl. She pulled her back and whispered: "Today we will outwit you, it won't take much effort."

After saying that, he touched the girl's head before turning to face Liuli.

"How much the prime minister doesn't want Yan Ming to have a child has anything to do with me. This is my Ke Yiqing's child. How can it be his turn to take care of it?"

Seeing that she couldn't persuade him, Liuli called a few guards and said helplessly: "The slave has nothing to do. For the sake of your lord and the life of the young lady, I have no choice but to do this."

But Zi Xing was faster than the slowly approaching guards. After receiving Ke Yiqing's instructions, she flew forward and immediately restrained Liuli.

Everyone present except the two of them were surprised. The little girl who thought she was just a mascot actually had such skills?
Ke Yiqing took off the hairpin from her head and put it on Liuli's neck, threatening: "If she goes any further, I will kill her.",

Liuli's face was full of reluctance, "I'm just a little maid. You can kill or cut her into pieces as you please."

"Oh? Does the miracle doctor think so too?"

The person hiding behind the rockery was stunned for a moment, and had to walk out with a wry smile, "Madam, you have good eyesight."

He paused, and when no one answered his words, he continued without embarrassment, "To be honest, madam, this poison stone has no cure. If the fetus had been aborted earlier, it would have been less painful."

Ke Yiqing spat at him, "I'm just calling you a miracle doctor to give you some face. Just because you can't cure it doesn't mean that others can't cure it!"

Liu Ruyi looked excited, and he denied it flatly: "Impossible, even my master can't cure this poison, who else can!"

His face was excited, but his body was slowly leaning over.

Until he was kicked over by a delicate and delicate foot.

Zi Xing hummed, "Madam told me a long time ago that you are very slick. If you try another trick, it won't be that simple."

Liu Ruyi sat on the ground obediently and didn't move, thinking that this young lady was so powerful that she might not be able to fulfill her wish for this trip.

"I know you don't dare to make a big fuss, and so do I. Let's talk about a business deal."

Liuli still had a hard time saying, "Now in my Liyuan territory, Madam has such a strong voice, aren't you afraid that Lord Yan will know about it?"

Ke Yiqing blinked innocently, but the hairpin was held closer, and blood stains were faintly visible, "I'm afraid he knows? I think it's Miss Liuli who is more afraid of you, right?"

"you!"

"No, no, no, no, Madam, if you have something to say, please tell me."

"Tell me well? You knew it but refused to repay it. Is this what you said? Tell me well?"

Liu Ruyi choked and stopped arguing.

Ke Yiqing turned around and chuckled: "As for Miss Liuli, she said she was doing it for my own good, but in fact she didn't send me a message at all, right?"
