Chapter 138 There is a ghost in my heart
"My Lord, Xiaoqing is definitely not such a person. Although she has not been with me for a long time, she is an honest person and will never do anything to hurt me."
Lily leaned weakly on Xiaoqing's body, looked at Xue Wanxian hesitantly, and explained softly.
"It's not her. Do you mean that Xiaosang beside me wanted to poison you on purpose?" Seeing Lily pretending to be weak, Liu Yiyi was immediately furious.
"My lord, that's not what I meant." Lily quickly shook her head.
"Hmph." Liu Yiyi snorted coldly.
"Then what do you say we should do?" Xue Wanxian couldn't help but soften his heart when he saw Lily's fragile appearance.
"My Lord, I think Xiao Sang and Xiao Qing are both suspects. To be fair, I will search their bodies and the room to see if we can find anything."
"No, Xiaosang is mine. She has no need to do such a thing. Why should I search her room?"
As soon as Lily's suggestion was made, Liu Yiyi immediately objected.
She gave Xiao Sang some things yesterday, which are now placed in Xiao Sang's room. If she agreed to search, wouldn't all those things be exposed?
"Miss Liu, why? This is the most direct way to verify their innocence. Why don't you agree?" Lily stared at Liu Yiyi innocently.
She didn't expect Liu Yiyi to object so strongly. Could it be that she really had something fishy going on?
"I said no and it means no. If you doubt Xiao Sang, aren't you doubting me? Why should I poison you?" Liu Yiyi looked at Lily with disdain.
"But now, the most suspicious people are Xiaosang and Xiaoqing. Xiaoqing is my personal maid. In order to avoid suspicion, I agreed to let Xiaoqing be searched. Why is Miss Liu still unwilling? Is there really something in Xiaosang's room?"
The more Liu Yiyi refused, the more Lily felt that there must be something wrong.
"My Lord, you know Xiao Sang very well. She would never do such a thing."
Liu Yiyi was too lazy to argue with Lily and looked directly at Xue Wanxian.
Xue Wanxian did not answer Liu Yiyi immediately. He looked at Liu Yiyi and couldn't help but feel suspicious.
If there was really nothing wrong with Xiaosang, why didn't Liu Yiyi agree to search the room?
This is obviously the quickest way to prove innocence.
"My Lord? Do you suspect that Xiao Sang did this?" Seeing that Xue Wanxian did not support her at the first time, Liu Yiyi frowned and looked a little unhappy.
"Searching the room can prove Xiaosang's innocence. Why are you unwilling?" Xue Wanxian looked at Liu Yiyi.
For some reason, he suddenly remembered that a month ago, Liu Yiyi deliberately framed An Qingqian, wanting him to see An Qingqian touching her, causing the child to be born prematurely.
Trust is originally indestructible, but once the slightest seed of doubt is planted, then one day, this seed of doubt will eventually sprout and grow.
"My Lord, if I agree to this, wouldn't that mean I admit that Xiao Sang has a problem? Xiao Sang is my person. If you embarrass Xiao Sang like this, you are embarrassing me. How can I agree to this?"
"Miss Liu, are you feeling guilty?" Lily frowned slightly and looked at Liu Yiyi in surprise.
"How dare you! Who the hell do you think you are? How dare you question me?" Liu Yiyi glanced at Lily with disdain.
What qualifications does a person who is willing to climb into another man's bed for status have to question her?
However, Liu Yiyi forgot that this was how she became Xue Wanxian's woman.
"Miss Liu, how can you say that to me? After all, I am the Marquis's concubine and I have a status in the mansion."
Lily couldn't stand Liu Yiyi's self-righteous attitude, and she also knew what she cared about most, so naturally, what she said hit her where it hurts.
Sure enough, when Liu Yiyi heard Lily say this, her expression changed immediately.
"Lily, how outrageous!" Liu Yiyi stood up from the chair, her face full of undisguised anger.
She has always looked down on Lily. A maid climbed onto her master's bed and transformed herself into Xue Wanxian's concubine. Did she really think that she had become a phoenix and her status was higher than others?
"My Lord, if Miss Liu has nothing to hide, why is she unwilling to let people search Xiao Sang's room? In my opinion, there is clearly something wrong."
"Someone, go and search Xiaoqing and Xiaosang's rooms carefully. I want to see what is going on!" Xue Wanxian's face turned cold.
Although he liked Liu Yiyi and couldn't help but favor her in this matter, her repeated rejections and rejections today still made him feel very uncomfortable.
In particular, her words and actions were full of disdain and contempt for Lily.
After all, Lily was his woman, his aunt. When Liu Yiyi spoke like this, did she never care about him? Did she care about his face?
"My Lord, you..." Liu Yiyi looked at Xue Wanxian in disbelief, unable to believe that he actually ordered someone to search Xiao Sang's room.
"This is the only way to clear Xiao Sang's name at the moment. Don't you want Xiao Sang to get rid of the suspicion? Or do you simply not trust your maid?"
Xue Wanxian stared at Liu Yiyi closely with a look of suspicion on his face.
"Of course I trust my maid." Liu Yiyi retracted her gaze and turned to look at Xiao Sang.
Now, she only hoped that Xiao Sang hid the thing well and would not be found by the searchers.
The people who were searching for things soon returned.
"To reply to the Marquis, there is nothing in Xiaoqing's room." The person in charge of searching Xiaoqing's room reported first.
"Well, what about you guys?" Xue Wanxian had already anticipated that Xiaoqing would not really attack Baihe.
"My Lord, I found a small porcelain bottle in Miss Sang's room. It seems to contain medicine or something. I need to ask this doctor to check it out."
The maid handed the small porcelain bottle in her hand to the doctor.
When Liu Yiyi saw the bottle, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, fortunately it was not something I gave to Xiao Sang.
It seems that Xiao Sang hid that thing very well.
When Lily saw the small porcelain bottle, her face changed slightly. The thing she asked someone to put into Xiaosang's room was not this small porcelain bottle at all.
It should be a pill wrapped in oil paper, so where did this small porcelain bottle come from?
"My Lord, the medicine here has the same effect as the poison that this lady was poisoned with. Both can cause constant abdominal pain and endanger life. It is indeed a strong poison."
The doctor held up the pill in his hand and handed it to Xue Wanxian respectfully.
Xue Wanxian just glanced at the pill, then stared at Xiao Sang with cold eyes.
