Chapter 229: The Irritable Queen Mother vs. the Cold Imperial Master (12)

Facing Ming Yan's inquiring gaze, Lu Cha remained calm and smiled sweetly:

"Master, have you changed your mind and want to feed me?"

The girl stood with her back to the light, her pretty face a little blurry, only her clear eyes were bright and shining.

"Your Majesty, you worry too much."

Ming Yan lowered his eyes slightly.

Maybe he was missing the little fox.

Before Lu Cha could speak again, Ming Yan turned and left.

Her clothes fluttered as if she was about to fly away with the wind.

Lu Cha was very curious.

What would the little villain look like when he takes off his disguise?

Seeing the green bamboo carved on the white jade porcelain cup in his hand, Lu Cha recalled the previous porcelain cups, all of which were engraved with different patterns, and felt a subtle mood.

Is the national teacher so rich?

Delivering medicine and throwing a white jade porcelain cup?

-

The study in the Imperial Master's Mansion.

The little silver fox, having awakened, hid under the table again, looking alert and ready to attack, not allowing anyone to approach.

Zhuo Xuan held a plate of chicken legs and looked helplessly at Ming Yan who had returned:

"Sir, I don't know what happened. After the little fox woke up, he became very fierce. He even refused to eat the chicken legs and would not let anyone pass by."

Seeing the little silver fox under the table, fiercely showing its sharp claws, its deep blue pupils reflecting a strong sense of hostility, Ming Yan suddenly remembered the girl's amber-colored, smart eyes.

If the Queen Mother's eyes were the same color as the little fox...

Ming Yanfeng's eyes were gloomy.

He remembered that the notes left by the Ming family's ancestor recorded a kind of magic that the ancestor had heard of, called soul exchange.

It is said that one should soak one's own birth date and the personal belongings of the person one wants to exchange bodies with in black snake blood, then hide them near the other person's living place and bury corresponding talismans together. Only when the full moon comes can the soul be exchanged.

Because the records are incomplete, no one has succeeded so far.

How did the Queen Mother do this? And how could she switch bodies so naturally?

Even though he felt that the Queen Mother did not have such ability, Ming Yan still ordered:

"Zhuo Xuan, take your men to search the mansion. Is there anything blood-stained buried there?"

"Especially in remote corners and in the dirt of the yard, don't miss any of them."

Zhuo Xuan took the order and left.

Ming Yan glanced at the vigilant little fox, went to the bedroom, and left the study to the little guy.

It takes about the time of an incense stick.

In the bedroom.

Zhuo Xuan nodded and reported: "Sir, Zhuo Xuan did not find the object you mentioned."

Hearing this, Ming Yan paused as he rubbed the teacup with his fingertips.

He waved his hand to send Zhuo Xuan away, then took out a few copper coins and scattered them casually on the low table on the couch.

Recite silently in your mind and change the position of the copper coin from time to time.

moment.

Ming Yan frowned as he looked at the hexagram - flowers in the water, the moon in the mirror.

What he was asking was, are the Queen Mother and the little fox the same soul?

But this hexagram represents illusion.

The Ming family's divination techniques were incomplete, so any attempt to divine the secrets of heaven would yield unclear results.

Ming Yan tapped the table lightly, his eyes cold, but a hint of interest lingered deep within them.

Quite interesting.

-

At the same time, at the Taiwei Mansion.

Following a loud singing: "The Queen Mother is here——"

Lu Cha took Jin Yu's arm and walked slowly into the mansion, followed by a large group of palace maids and eunuchs.

On both sides of the road, maids and servants were kneeling down.

"The Queen Mother is truly majestic."

A sarcastic voice suddenly sounded.

The woman who came over was wearing a scarlet dress. She was about nineteen years old. Although she was beautiful, she held her chin high, had arrogant eyes and eyebrows, and showed a sense of arrogance.

It was none other than General Jiang’s legitimate daughter and the original owner’s elder sister—Jiang Lianxue.

Looking at the girl sitting at the first seat in the main hall, her gorgeous blue dress was embroidered with various colorful floral patterns in gold thread, which could not hide her elegance. Jiang Lianxue could not help but look down at her own skirt.

Even if it is made by the best embroiderer, it is still not as good as those in the palace.

How come this little bitch is dressed better than her? !

Jiang Lianxue made no secret of her jealousy and, as always, arrogantly ordered:

"Take off that dress you're wearing and give it to me!"

Jin Yu immediately shouted angrily, "How dare you! This is the current Queen Mother! Miss Jiang, please watch your words!"

Jiang Lianxue crossed her arms over her chest, her eyes scornful:

"If it weren't for my father, how could a lowly concubine like her be worthy of being the Queen Mother?"

"I'm lucky enough that I didn't ask her to kneel down and kowtow to me in gratitude!"

The original owner's mother died early, and she was often bullied by Jiang Lianxue and Madam Jiang. Although Madam Jiang passed away due to illness a few years ago, the original owner's life did not get any better.

Jiang Lianxue became even more aggressive.

Not only did he deliberately have his servants hold the original owner down and force her to stand in the scorching sun, causing her to fall into a coma and suffer from heatstroke, nearly killing her.

On a cold winter day, Jiang Lianxue ordered the original owner to wash clothes outside, and her hands were almost frozen off.

There are countless examples like this.

Not to mention, whether Jiang Lianxue was happy or unhappy, she would beat the original owner violently.

With no one to back her up and General Jiang doting only on his legitimate daughter, the original owner gradually became afraid to resist.

Even after becoming the Queen Mother, she remained silent in the face of Jiang Lianxue's bullying.

Lu Cha gave a look to an old lady beside him.

At this moment, Jiang Lianxue spoke again:

"Hey! Can't you hear me talking to you?! Are you deaf?!"

Bang!

The old lady raised her hand and slapped Jiang Lianxue hard on the cheek.

"ah!"

Jiang Lianxue covered her instantly swollen right cheek, furious:

"Slave, do you want to die?!"

Jiang Lianxue's maidservant was also a bully, pointing at the old nanny's nose and shouting:

"How dare you! This is General Jiang's legitimate daughter! How dare you hit our young lady! I'm afraid you don't want to see the sun tomorrow!"

The master and servant were shouting and yelling when they were suddenly pinned to the ground by several palace maids.

"What are you doing?!"

The old lady sneered:

"Ms. Jiang, a dignified young lady, doesn't even know basic etiquette. She didn't even bother to show respect to the Queen Mother. She acted like a shrew, baring her teeth and claws. This old servant can only teach Miss Jiang a lesson on behalf of the Grand Marshal."

"Pull Miss Jiang over here and salute the Queen Mother!"

"Let me go! I don't want to kneel down to that bitch!" Jiang Lianxue tried to break free from the palace maid's grip, but was slapped by the old nanny again.

The left side of my face is also swollen.

"If Miss Jiang can't control her mouth any more, then I will continue to beat her."

"you!"

Jiang Lianxue wanted to curse back, but was afraid that the old nanny would slap her again. She was forced by the palace maid to kneel in front of Lu Cha in anger.

From beginning to end, Lu Cha did not say a word, just leisurely sipping the fragrant tea.

That nonchalant attitude, as if Jiang Lianxue was nothing more than a clown, made her feel even more ashamed.

"Jiang Lucha, just wait for me! I will definitely tell Dad about this...Ah!!!"

The old nanny glared at him, "You're so rude! You actually dared to address the Empress Dowager by her name! Why don't you apologize now?"

Jiang Lianxue's chest heaved violently with anger, and her already swollen face now looked even more hideous and frightening.

She gritted her teeth and squeezed out the words:

"Lianxue doesn't know etiquette, please forgive me, Queen Mother!"

Bitch! Damn bitch! She is definitely going to kill Jiang Lucha!

Lu Cha raised his eyes slowly: "Louder, haven't you eaten yet?"

"Don't go too far!"

The old lady slapped him again: "You can't look directly at the Queen Mother for too long."

Jiang Lianxue felt like her lungs were about to explode, but she had to lower her head.

Lu Cha took a sip of tea with satisfaction.

Being the Queen Mother is so cool~

[You look just like a vicious female supporting character right now.] The system couldn't help but complain.

Look how badly Jiang Lianxue was beaten, her eyes are squinting.

Lucha said innocently: [I didn't do anything, don't talk nonsense.]

But at this moment, the man's angry voice came:

"What are you doing?!"
