Meixiang was Xiangrong's maid. After hearing Feng Yuheng's question, An Shi also remembered that it was not Meixiang who accompanied Xiangrong today, so she also asked: "Yes, where is Meixiang?"
Xiangrong said: "Meixiang asked for leave this morning, saying that she had a stomachache. I didn't think much about it and let her stay in the yard to rest. ()"
An looked at Feng Yuheng, thought about it all again, and suddenly realized the key point, "Is it Meixiang? The second lady means that there is something wrong with Meixiang?" She immediately ordered the servants: "Quick! Go and bring Meixiang here! Quick!"
The servants hurried over, and the old lady came forward and said as she walked, "Ah Heng, do you mean that the girl did something? That's true. She was a close servant, so she had the best chance to do it."
Kang Yi also said: "Yes, call the person over and ask clearly."
Feng Yuheng shook his head, "I'm afraid it's too late."
Thinking that Rong had the same idea as her, he immediately said, "There has been little fruit delivered these past two days. I made jam from the pears delivered the day before yesterday, which was just enough for yesterday's snacks. But there was no fruit delivered yesterday. My aunt and I discussed it last night and said that we might not be able to make snacks today. Madam Yao likes to eat snacks with fruit fillings, so it would be meaningless if we don't put fruit fillings in them. When we were talking about this, Meixiang was always by our side. Could it be..."
Kang Yi took over the conversation: "She knew that she couldn't deliver the snacks today, and Madam Yao would definitely get sick if she didn't have snacks for a day, not to mention that the snacks she delivered yesterday weren't enough, right?"
Xiangrong nodded.
An suddenly collapsed to the ground. Meixiang was Xiangrong's personal maid, so they were in no way unrelated to this matter.
She gritted her teeth, knelt and crawled forward two steps, kowtowed to Feng Yuheng, and then said: "Second Miss, I know that I can't escape punishment for this incident. But please be merciful, Second Miss, let me take the punishment and spare Third Miss! Even if you want me to die, it's fine."
Xiangrong was shocked and hurried to pull An: "Aunt, how can this be done? What will happen to Xiangrong if you die?" She cried and begged Feng Yuheng: "Second sister, we really have no bad intentions and have never thought of harming Madam Yao. Madam Yao treats Xiangrong very well on weekdays. She always thinks of saving a portion of any good things for Xiangrong. Xiangrong is grateful to her so much, how could she harm her? Second sister, please don't blame Aunt An, please."
Feng Yuheng felt a headache, and she finally understood why the old lady sometimes acted so impatient when facing these noisy descendants. When she was upset, any noise from the outside world would be fatal, even she was no exception.
Feng Yuheng waved his hands and frowned, "Stop crying in front of me. If you continue crying, I might whip you!"
Her voice was so stern that the two of them dared not cry anymore. Then Feng Yuheng said, "The matter has not been investigated yet. I don't want to blame anyone. Aunt An, I think I rarely trust people, but I never doubt people without reason. In this huge Feng Mansion, there are not many people who are on good terms with me. You are the two closest to me. I don't want to be too lonely, so I will investigate this matter thoroughly. But..." She suddenly cast her eyes towards the old lady, "You Feng Mansion better pray that I don't find out, otherwise... I will definitely twist off the head of anyone who dares to touch my mother!"
The old lady shuddered, and if it weren't for Aunt Zhao and Kang Yi supporting her, she would have almost fallen to the ground. But at this moment, she was thinking about a lot of things.
It is impossible for a maid named Meixiang to harm Yao for no reason. An and Xiangrong are good friends with Feng Yuheng and have no motive to harm anyone. Therefore, there must be someone behind Meixiang. Who is this person?
She bravely glanced at Feng Yuheng again. When she met her enemy-like gaze, Feng Jinyuan's name suddenly flashed through her mind. The old lady panicked. Could it be her son who did it? It's possible! At the beginning, Yao took the initiative to divorce, and Feng Jinyuan had always been unwilling to accept it. He had nowhere to vent his anger, so he might do something to Yao. And Chenyu, Chenyu is also involved. Feng Yuheng played an indispensable role in Shen's death. It is possible that Feng Chenyu holds a grudge.
The old lady panicked, because it turned out that the attacker was someone from Feng Mansion. She knew Feng Yuheng's temper too well. When this girl got angry, she didn't recognize any relatives. She dared to scold her father or her sisters, and she dared to whip them. When did she ever show any mercy? Feng Yuheng hated Feng Mansion because of her three years in the northwest. If it was found that the Yao family was responsible for the incident, she would contact the Ninth Prince to burn down Feng Mansion!
The old lady's heart was shaking, and her legs were trembling. She couldn't sit or stand in this room. Kang Yi saw the door, thought for a while, and said, "Mother is not feeling well, can your wife take you back to rest?" Then he said to Feng Yuheng, "I think the master will be back soon. Do you think you should ask the master to invite a doctor to come and take a look?"
Feng Yuheng shook her head, "No need. I can't even cure the disease, so what's the point of calling the imperial physician?" She waved her hand, "You have seen the situation here, so let's go back first."
Kang Yi said, "I'll be back soon after I take my mother a few steps. At least we can wait until the people who went to look for Meixiang come back. You are a good doctor, but I'm afraid it would be better if an adult took care of other things. Let me help you."
She spoke sincerely. Feng Yuheng glanced at Kang Yi and suddenly said to her, "I applied medicine to Ru Jia yesterday. The medicine is changed every three days, so I don't need to go to the palace today."
Kang Yi was startled, then said: "That's not what I meant. I naturally believe that you can cure her, and I just want to help you."
"No need." Feng Yuheng raised her lips and said, "Mother's desire to leave is written on her face. I'm not stupid, so how could I not see it?" As she spoke, she glanced at the old lady again, "I understand your thoughts. Well, I won't expose you. If you have the ability, go ahead and do it. It's a good opportunity for us to compete and see whose subordinates are more useful."
Kang Yi was very embarrassed by what she said. She really saw what the old lady was thinking. She wanted to leave the room quickly so that she could tell her men to intercept Meixiang who must have escaped long ago. Only if Meixiang died, there would be no evidence, and Feng Yuheng would not be able to offend the Feng family.
It’s a pity that I didn’t expect that this girl would be so sharp and her thoughts so clear.
She naturally couldn't show it on her face, and just said helplessly: "I really don't have any other ideas, I just thought that there is no one here to help you. But since Ah Heng can handle it by yourself, I won't bother you any more."
After Kang Yi finished speaking, he went to support the old lady and left with a group of servants.
For a moment, apart from the servants of Tongshengxuan, only the An mother and daughter were left in the room.
The two maids brought by the An mother and daughter had gone to look for Meixiang and had not returned yet. Wangchuan saw that they were both kneeling on the ground, looked at Feng Yuheng, and when he saw him nod, he walked forward and personally helped them up and settled them in their seats.
An was in a panic, and so was Xiangrong. They both looked outside from time to time, waiting for the two maids to come back.
Feng Yuheng first started to give Yao acupuncture. Although the effect was not great, it could relieve the pain when the addiction came. Yao was still in a coma, but her eyebrows were tightly knitted, and she was obviously not at ease.
"Let's go!" Feng Yuheng suddenly raised his head and shouted, and a figure flashed out of the air, which scared An and Xiangrong. "Send out a few of the secret guards sent by the Ninth Prince and the Seventh Prince. If I'm right, Meixiang must be no longer in the Feng Mansion."
Ban Zou nodded: "I will send some people to chase outside the city, and leave some people to look for him in the city. He shouldn't be able to get far in such a short time. We can't just focus on the outside and forget that there is darkness under the lamp." After he finished speaking, without waiting for Feng Yuheng to speak again, his figure flashed and disappeared again.
An felt even more miserable. With such a master in Tongshengxuan, it would be very difficult for anyone to do anything here. But Yao trusted her and ate the snacks she sent without any doubt. Unexpectedly, it was this trust that caused Yao to suffer like this.
The more An thought about it, the sadder she became. At this time, the two maids who had gone to look for her came back. Feng Yuheng's guess was correct. The news they brought back was: "Mei Xiang has disappeared. The servants searched the entire courtyard, but couldn't find even a trace of her."
Huang Quan asked anxiously: "Have you asked at the concierge?"
One of the maids answered, "I asked, and the concierge said that apart from the master going to court this morning, only the people who were doing the shopping had left the house, and no maids from Aunt An's courtyard were seen."
An Shi started crying again and said to Feng Yuheng, "It's all my fault. I didn't trust Sister Yao. Second Miss, if you are angry, just vent it on me. I can bear anything."
Feng Yuheng didn't say anything, but Wang Chuan took over the conversation: "Aunt An, please stop saying such things to upset the young lady. The most important thing now is to treat the lady's illness. Mei Xiang has already sent people to chase her. The truth will eventually come out."
Feng Yuheng also sighed, half turned his head and said: "You go back first. I will not accuse you before this matter is investigated. I said that there are not many people in the mansion who are close to me, but it is not because I think of this friendship that I will show mercy. If it is found that this matter has nothing to do with you, then everything is fine. But if it involves you, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Xiangrong quickly stood up and assured her: "Second sister, if this matter is found to be related to us, my aunt and I will definitely not evade responsibility. Even if it is not related, after all, the snacks were made by our hands, and we will not hide from the crime."
Feng Yuheng waved her hand, not wanting to say anything more. The two saw that she was indeed exhausted, and if something like this happened, they would not have the position to stay and help, so they had to get up and say goodbye, thinking that they would find a way to investigate Meixiang after returning.
After the old lady returned to Shuya Garden, she immediately said that she wanted to rest and sent Kang Yi away. However, after Kang Yi left, she hurriedly said to Zhao Ma: "Send someone to wait at the gate of the mansion. Once the master returns, ask him to come to me immediately! Go quickly--"
