46. ??Chapter 46 The terrible rouge [2]
Seeing that her young lady was so weak and still supporting herself, Pauline looked even more panicked.
Three years ago, the young lady was playing with Madam Zhang's leftover rouge in Mother Zhang's arms. Later, she accidentally broke it open and some of it stuck to her little hand. After that, the young lady began to fall into a coma.
Thinking of these past events, Pauline wanted to die. If she had known that the lady was going to find this thing on the dressing table, she would not have left even half a step!!
"Miss, miss, don't scare me, please open your eyes. Miss, I beg you..."
While crying, Pauline hugged Xiaoyue's gradually declining body.
"What happened? Why are you howling so early in the morning?"
Mother Zhang's stern voice sounded from outside the house, followed by a burst of air-conditioning, and Mother Zhang walked in.
When she saw Xiaoyue closing her eyes tightly and falling into Baolian's arms with a blushing face, her complexion suddenly changed. She quickly stepped forward, picked up Xiaoyue, and carried her back to the bed. After covering her with the quilt,
With a sullen face, she turned around and scolded Pauline, "Pauline, tell me what's going on? Why did the young lady suddenly become like this?"
As Zhang's mother asked Pauline, her heart began to feel uneasy. Why was her young lady's life so miserable?
Pauline gingerly handed over the rouge in her hand, "Mom, the lady just had this in her hand..."
When Zhang Ma's eyes shifted to the rouge box in Pauline's hand, her face suddenly changed, fear appeared in her eyes, and she took a few steps back.
"You mean, Miss, it's because of this box of rouge this time?"
Pauline nodded, and fell to her knees on the ground with tears in her eyes, "Mom, you should punish Pauline. It's all Pauline's fault. Why don't you look after the good lady..."
Mother Zhang sighed and said in a faint tone, "Get up! What's the use of punishing you now? The matter has already happened, we should find someone who can treat the young lady as soon as possible. The last time the young lady was unconscious, it was because the master was not thinking about the young lady.
The young master is not in the house either, and now the young master is... By the way, Pauline, go find the young master immediately, don't let other people in the yard know about this, and wipe your face, don't let anyone see that you have cried..."
"Yes! Pauline is going now!"
After Baolian went out, Zhang's mother stood beside Xiaoyue, her eyes filled with worry and apology, "Little miss, don't worry, my mother will risk her life this time to protect you,"
Her young lady died with hatred, she knew the inside story, the young lady was poisoned, she gritted her teeth and endured it, in order to seek compromise, but now it seems that this move is completely unworkable!!
She must take measures, not for anything else, but because her young lady treats her like a sister, regardless of each other, she must find out the devil hidden behind it!!
...
"Mama Zhang, what's wrong with Xi'er? Pauline came to see me just now. I asked her questions along the way, but she just lowered her head and didn't answer. It almost made me anxious to death!"
After listening to Pauline's brief statement, Leng Xianhua hurriedly followed Pauline without washing his face.
When he entered the door, he saw Xiaoyue, who had worried him all night, lying on the bed with her eyes closed. He felt even more anxious. He really wished that he could go and suffer for this woman with such a tragic fate.
Mother Zhang looked at Leng Xianhua with a serious face. She took a breath first, and then said slowly, "Master, I just told you about my suspicions yesterday. I didn't expect that this morning, the lady... I'd better show this to the master."
Something!”
Zhang Ma said and handed over the box of rouge. Leng Xianhua was startled and raised his eyebrows, "Mom? This is what you said you wanted to show me??"
He was a little confused. He reached out to take the rouge and looked around. Isn't this just the rouge that ordinary women dress up? He didn't find any difference from other rouges?!
Just as she was about to open the box, Zhang Ma's hand quickly stretched out to hold it down, and said seriously, "Master, I gave you this thing to say that three years ago, the lady fell into a coma because she opened a box of rouge carelessly.
, I didn’t expect that this time it would be because of Rouge.”
Leng Xianhua's heart skipped a beat, and his face became serious, "Mom, do you want to say that this Rouge is extraordinary?! My little sister's mysterious coma three years ago has something to do with this?"
Zhang Ma nodded heavily, lowered her eyes, and continued, "Master, it's not that Zhang Ma meant to talk about the right and wrong in the house. It's really... Master, do you know that when my wife died of illness three years ago, I covered up all my wife's possessions?"
All the rouge and gouache have been thrown away, and now this fatal rouge appears strangely in the lady’s room. Tell me...how deep is the water in the lady’s yard?”
After hearing this, Leng Xianhua immediately jumped up and punched the stool next to him, "Who is it? Does Zhang Ma know who it is? If you tell me, I will skin him!"
Zhang Ma smiled bitterly, "Master——, if I knew, I would have taken precautions."
Yes, if Zhang Ma knew who was behind the scenes, how could she not take precautions? How could this woman named Xiaoyue still be harmed?
It seems that he made the right choice when he went to Beijing to report on his duties. Otherwise, if he left his sister without telling her, his body would be destroyed!
Since the water in the Prime Minister's Mansion is so deep and it is impossible to find a place to dock for the time being, he will find a way to find a dock for them to stay for a while!!
"Mother Zhang, take good care of Xi'er. I'll take the rouge to a drug store and have it appraised."

Tianchen Palace, Yi Palace.
Emperor Beiao tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep peacefully. His mind was filled with the Yin Yang Mirror and the words of the Taoist priest in white...
When the first ray of dawn appeared on the horizon, Shunxiang knocked on the palace door.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's time to go to court!"
Emperor Beiao jumped up. Yes, he wanted to go to court quickly to resolve the issue before rushing to Yikun Palace.
When he had taken care of the court affairs and was about to rush to Yikun Palace, he blocked his way with a man.
He took a closer look and found that the person blocking him was his younger brother Bei Yexu.
"Brother Wang? Where are you going in such a hurry?" Bei Yexu asked with a smile.
"Haha, brother Wang, the emperor suddenly fell ill yesterday. Brother Wang was worried about him, so he went to Yikun Palace to visit..."
"That's it, please, Brother Wang!"
Bei Yexu made way for him. After Emperor Bei Ao walked past, he shouted to his back, "Brother Wang, I heard that Major General Leng Xianhua is back. Brother Wang wants to ask you when will you declare his presence and grant him an official title."
Wow!"
Emperor Bei'ao paused. Yes, how could he have forgotten this? He had pointed out Leng Xianhua to the prince's precious daughter, Princess Pingyang, as a princess!
"Don't worry, after I saw Ming'er, I immediately went back to issue an edict to announce his entry into the palace, and then choose a date to marry Pingyang!"
