The hall was silent, except for the water falling to the ground with a barely detectable sound.

"You are talking nonsense, you have wronged me!" Li Yuyao's voice was shrivelled.

"I wronged you?" Qin E looked at her expressionlessly, "'Water Lotus' occurred within two hours, so there is no doubt that Hui Niang is in the middle of the other village. Hui Niang has been with me all the time, since she entered the other village, except for the pot of tea you asked someone to change, she has never eaten a mouthful of anything, and has not drunk a drop of water. So she was poisoned, it must have been because she drank that pot of tea. ”

"So what, the pot of tea was brought by the maid, and I don't know anything. ”

"The maid who served the tea has already been recruited. ”

Li Yuyao's voice stopped abruptly.

Qin E stared at her eyes tightly, "When Mrs. He came, there was a man in a gray robe beside her, I don't know if you noticed it." He is from the Qilin Gate, and I entrusted him to help me investigate the matter, and he found the maid as soon as possible. You know that if you want to ask a question, there are many fast and effective ways. A little maid quickly confessed. ”

"She, what did she say?"

"She said you'd find a way to be alone with me, and then when you asked her for tea, she would follow the plan and put what you gave her into the tea. ”

"It's not like that, she's talking nonsense. ”

"She was tortured, it is impossible for her to lie, she said that if you gave it, you must give it. ”

"No, I didn't give it!"

"Who gave that?"

"It's Min Rou!"

As soon as the words came out, Li Yuyao regretted it. "No, no, I didn't mean that. ”

"You really know that the tea is poisonous, and you really want to harm me. Qin E looked at her, "Actually, I didn't ask that maid about tea at all, how could I find someone in Beizhuang of Ningbohou's Mansion and punish her." ”

Li Yuyao was stunned, "You lied to me?"

"It's a lie. Those are my inferences, and if my inference is incorrect, this matter has nothing to do with you, so you don't need to say more. But you think I really have the evidence, and I'm exposed. Li Yuyao, you are self-inflicted. ”

"Qin Yuanniang, you are shameless!"

"Enough!" Old Taijun Li looked at her in shock, "Yu Yao, you really poisoned Yuan Niang!"

"Grandmother, I didn't put the poison. ”

"Is there a difference? You know that the tea is poisonous, and you still serve it to Yuan Niang, isn't it poisoned?" Mrs. Li's hand holding the chair kept trembling, "Why, why do you want to harm Yuan Niang, where is she sorry for you, and she is willing to kill her?"

"Because she robbed me of everything!" Li Yuyao glared at Qin E, her eyes were like two flames burning, "You all like her and treat her well." ”

"That's it?"

She also snatched Brother Jiu. Li Yuyao muttered: "I have liked Brother Jiu since I was a child, and I dream of being his bride when I grow up." But when he met her, he changed, Brother Jiu liked her and wanted to marry her. Because of her, Brother Nine doesn't want me anymore, Brother Nine is no longer mine!"

"Smack!"

Li Yuyao covered her face, "Grandmother?"

Every time she said a word, Mrs. Li took a step closer, and finally walked in front of her and slapped her heavily.

"Our Li family, regardless of men, women and children, are open-minded, fair and decent. I didn't expect to raise a narrow-minded and selfish child like you!"

"Grandmother!" Li Yuyao couldn't sit still anymore and fell to her knees.

"I miss that you lost your mother when you were a child, and your father was not around, so I doted on you. I know that you have a willful personality, and I can't bear to be strict with you, causing you to look like this, making you a big mistake!" Mrs. Li beat her chest, "It's my fault, it's my fault that I didn't discipline you well!"

The eldest lady Qu threw herself over and hugged her, knelt at her feet and cried: "Mother, it's not your fault, it's my fault." The second brother entrusted the child to me, it was my fault that I didn't do a good job!"

"What's wrong with you? As the wife of the Li family, you have been working hard to manage your family background and educate Li Yu very well. And you have reminded me several times that it is my partiality that I did not listen to you, and it was my fault. ”

Li Feng also knelt at his mother's feet, "Mother, Yu Yao is also confused for a while. ”

Old Taijun Li shook his head, "Yu Yao, your grandfather and the three hundred soldiers of the Li family army used their blood and lives to destroy the 'Water Lotus', but you used it to harm your relatives. How can you be worthy of the souls of the soldiers of the Li family, how can you be worthy of the orphans and widows who have lost their husbands, sons, and fathers, and how can you be worthy of your grandfather?"

"Grandmother!!" Li Yuyao cried on the ground, "I don't know, I really don't know this, if I knew, I would never agree." ”

Mrs. Li closed her eyes in disappointment, "At this moment, you still don't understand what you did wrong. Mrs. Li smiled miserably, "Come on, come on, lock her back in the courtyard for me, and no one is allowed to visit her." ”

He bowed his head and said to Qu Shi: "You get up, go to my study and send her the three cages containing the historical materials and biography of Li Jiajun under the big bookcase." Show her these things and let her memorize them word by word. Let the history of the Li family, the ancestors of our Li family teach her how to be a Li family. Let her husband test her every day, when she will memorize it all, and when she will come out to meet people. ”

"Mother!"

"Go!"

Qu got up and hurried away.

Li Yuyao is not in good health, and she has not paid much attention to reading since she was a child. The historical materials and biographies of the three cages can't be memorized for several years.

Li Yuyao was shocked and frightened, and kept begging, "Grandmother, I was wrong, I was really wrong." Mrs. Li indifferently pulled the skirt back from her hand and didn't look at her again.

Li Yuyao's gaze drifted in the living room, and finally when she saw Li Qiong, Huo Ran lit up, "Starling, Starling save me! You help me persuade my grandmother, help me!"

Li Qiong looked at her in a daze, and slowly raised her arm.

"Starling?" Li Yuyao retreated in horror, she couldn't believe that her brother, who loved her the most, wanted to beat her.

Li Qiong's eyes were red, and her raised hand trembled slightly. Qin E looked at it and couldn't bear it in her heart, this room of people, except for Mrs. Li, was Li Qiong's most heartache.

The person he loves was poisoned by his most beloved sister, and his life is in danger.

What a pain it is.

Li Qiong's hand didn't fall in the end, he closed his eyes in grief, didn't say anything, and staggered away.

There is only one back left, and just looking at it, I feel incomparably painful and desolate.

Li Yuyao lost her last hope, fell to the ground softly, and was helped away by the two grandmothers who bowed their heads left and right.

"San Lang, you get up, you go to the Ningbohou Mansion now. Old Taijun Li's expression was gloomy, "That maid is from the Ningbohou Mansion, and Yuyao said that the 'Water Lotus' is from Min Rou, but without the assistance of the people from the Ningbohou Mansion, it is impossible to achieve it smoothly." This time he did it in Ning Bohou's other village, and Xue Baoer couldn't get out of it. ”

Li Feng is the leader, how can he not figure out the key to it. "Regardless of whether Ning Bohou knew about this at the beginning or not, they dared to use Yu Yao, but they didn't take our Li family seriously. As for the Min family, they are entrenched in Fujian, and they don't honestly guard their territory to live, so they dare to fight our Li family's idea, and they have to settle accounts with them. ”

After Li Feng left, Mrs. Li left Qin E alone.

There were only two people left in the hall, and it seemed empty for a while, especially bleak and desolate.
