Li Yi said: "As far as I know, that Miaohua was originally familiar with your eldest lady in Beijing, and then because of this relationship, he came to Yangzhou and made friends with several ladies of your family.

Ruan Ji was speechless for a moment, and it was through their family that Miaohua entered Yangzhou's social circle. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The Yangzhou magnates who were onlookers suddenly felt secretly relieved.

Old Madam Ruan said: "Miaohua is from Beijing, she also knows a lot of nobles in the capital, we only think she is profound, how do we know that she is a traitor?"

Li Yi said to the commander of the horse: "Check Miaohua's back!"

The commander of the horse pulled out his knife and slashed lightly on Miaohua's back shoulder, cutting through her clothes, revealing a small gap, and there was no snowflake tattoo on the skin of the gap, only a small round scar.

Ma Commander said: "Now that this fine work has learned smartly, there is a small scar on the shoulder blade of this Miaohua female road, it seems that the tattoo has been scalded off or a layer of skin has been removed, and this scar is still very obvious!"

Miaohua, who had been silent, retorted at this time: "This scar was accidentally burned by me! That city defense map is not mine, it is used by Ruan Dalang for office affairs! He just happened to take it with him wherever he came to me!"

Commander Ma sneered: "Then tell me how you got burned to this place? Ruan Ping is just a small member of the army, what important official business should he use such a diagram? Does he still have to command the war?"

Before Miaohua could speak, Ruan Ping immediately shouted: "That picture is not mine! I don't know! I've never seen it! It's all made by this slut!"

Miaohua turned her head and looked at him hatefully with an idiot-like gaze.

Ruan Ping hated Miaohua so much at this time, it was this woman who affected him, so he scolded: "It's all this slut who has bad intentions, deliberately approaches me, deliberately seduces me, and deceives me......!

Li Yi scolded: "Shut up!"

Ruan Ping looked at the whip that the guards around him had raised, and immediately shut up obediently.

Li Yi said to Miaohua: "Miaohua, it is useless for you to deny it now!

Miaohua raised his head, his eyes were calm, and he said indifferently: "So far, I have nothing to say!

As she spoke, she closed her eyes and tilted her head, looking like she was at your disposal, and I was not afraid of cutting off her head.

Ruan Ping heard her say "It's too stupid to meet someone", and knew that she must be talking about herself, and wanted to scold, but when she opened her mouth and saw the leather whip, she shut up hatefully.

Li Yi said coldly: "You still say that others are stupid, but in my opinion, the most stupid thing is yourself! You have such backbone, is it because your master has the grace of knowing you? Or does your benefactor have pity for you? It's really ridiculous! If you have the grace of knowing or pity, how can you kneel here and be a **** that everyone despises and hates?"

Miaohua's expression suddenly became a little nervous, opened her eyes and looked at Li Yi, and then turned her head away.

Then, Li Yi ignored her and asked Commander Ma, "What else did you find?"

The commander of the horse clenched his fists and bowed his head and said: "The last general is incompetent, the last general took the guards of the Jingwei battalion to block the bow and crossbow of the Ruan Mansion, and after rushing in, he found that Ruan Ji set fire to his study!

Li Yi sneered: "Marquis Ruan, why is he burning the study?"

Ruan Ji said: "How could I burn my own study, it is obvious that your Jingwei battalion rushed into my house and turned it over, knocking over the candle flame and causing a fire!"

Commander Ma immediately retorted: "At that time, it was already dawn, who still had candles in the house!"

Li Yi tapped the case with the cold iron wrench in his hand, and said coldly: "Marquis Ruan probably thought that if all the letters in the future were burned, there would be no evidence, right?"

Ruan Ji said angrily: "The rebels broke in, the fire was purely accidental, I have never done anything worthy of the king's grace, what evidence needs to be burned!

Li Yi snorted and said, "Go, get me all the gifts from the Ruan family in recent years!"

Commander Ma immediately received the order, ran out of the school field with several of his men, and galloped towards Ruan's mansion.

Gift list?

Ruan Ji was stunned for a moment, glanced at his mother, Mrs. Ruan, and suddenly his face turned white!

Letters can be burned, but the gift list is a household matter, which is managed by Mrs. Ruan and Mrs. Ruan.

The wealthy family, the annual exchanges with various families, officials, and relatives, and all kinds of birthday congratulations during the New Year's holidays must be recorded, there are examples to follow, and there are courtesies to find. If this kind of interaction is not appropriate, it can affect interpersonal relationships and family reputation, which is extremely important for family managers.

And as a big family, the entry and exit of various materials must be recorded, and many materials do not belong to a certain person or a certain house. And the following small families have their own records, especially valuables. Otherwise, those warehouses, those things are so old that everyone can remember them clearly?

A gift list is an important booklet.

Mrs. Ruan couldn't help but nervously pull Mrs. Ruan's sleeve, looking scared.

Who would have thought that this backhouse affair?

Ruan's house was not far away, and Commander Ma quickly brought someone to fetch things.

Thick booklet, packed in a box.

Li Yi called a few female guards and said, "Check for me, if there are any gifts from Lingnan, just check for the past two years!"

A few female guards took out the thick booklet, identified the years, and began to look through them one by one.

After about a cup of tea, several female guards finished reading the last year, folded the pages of the relevant places, and presented them to Li Yi.

Li Yi looked at it, raised his head and smiled coldly, and said: "Your mansion is really good friends with the Kang thief! On the birthday of Mrs. Ruan in the Mid-Autumn Festival last August, the Lingnan Festival envoy gave a three-foot red coral tree and a number of gems of various colors.

Old Madam Ruan said: "At that time, the Kang thief did not rebel? Who knew that he harbored evil intentions? Moreover, the Kang thief was good at disguise, and even His Majesty and the Empress Dowager were deceived by him!"

The corners of Li Yi's mouth hooked, "So at the end of last year, Kang Thief sent a lot of New Year's gifts to your mansion?"

"At that time......" Old Madam Ruan suddenly concluded, at that time, Kang Lushan had already rebelled!

She paused and said, "At that time, the news of the rebellion of the Kang thieves had not yet been known, so I thought it was the same as in previous years, so I accepted it!"

"Oh?" Li Yi raised his eyebrows, did not refute her, and asked, "Then why did Marquis Ruan accept his gift for his fiftieth birthday in March this year?"

Old Madam Ruan's face turned pale, and she shook her body twice while holding the dragon's head cane, and then retorted: "Impossible!
