Xiangju was directly stunned, what did Miss mean by this?

She suddenly understood. Miss took advantage of her illness to hand over the matter to Xianglan, which means that Xianglan did it. And the young lady knew Xianglan's way of doing things, and she was afraid that Xianglan's plan would be ruined, so she deliberately pretended to be sick and didn't go to participate.

Xiangju suddenly became annoyed in her heart, why did she marry someone and her brain became even more stupid. If this had been in the past, she would have seen the clue a long time ago.

Xianglan said: "Bring Aunt Guo here." ”

Mother Yang waved her hand and motioned for someone to bring Aunt Guo over.

Aunt Guo is still holding Xiao Ruihong at the moment, and she wants everyone to know how her son died.

It's a pity that she is too naïve, when she came out and competed with Xiangju for the stewardship of the Jin Palace, her son was destined to die.

Xianglan said: "Aunt Guo, please come here, I am here to listen."

If, during my interrogation, any of the subordinates replies you are dissatisfied with or do not match, please be calm and I will give you time to refute.

But if you interrupt my cross-examination for no reason, or interrupt someone's reply for no reason, then I will ask you to leave. ”

Aunt Guo's emotions were a little excited again, and she asked her to leave, so how could she listen to the truth or falsehood.

Xianglan continued: "Fortunately, you can rest assured that there is King Qing here, it can't be fake, and it can't be fake." ”

Aunt Guo looked at King Qing, and then nodded.

The interrogation began.

Xianglan said: "The people who have served Hong Gongzi have all stepped forward. ”

In the crowd in the courtyard, three people came out.

Xianglan said: "Tell everyone, your identity?"

The eldest took the lead in kneeling down and said: "The slave maid is the nurse of Hong Gongzi, and Hong Gongzi is brought up by the slave and maid." Her voice was hoarse, and she looked at her appearance, Xiao Ruihong's death hit her hard.

The second person to reply was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old maid, who knelt down when Hong Gongzi's nurse knelt. "Slave maid, slave maid is serving in Hong Gongzi's room, and is responsible for Hong Gongzi's food and accommodation on weekdays. She was crying, obviously still in grief.

The third person was three years older than Xiao Ruihong, and he knelt down and said: "The slave is Hong Gongzi's scholar, and he accompanies Hong Gongzi to study on weekdays." ”

Xianglan continued: "Okay, the three of you tell me, what kind of person is Hong Gongzi on weekdays?"

The three of them were stunned, and then they all bowed their heads.

Xianglan said: "Why, I can't say it, it's still hard to say?"

Aunt Guo stared at the three people beside her, as if as long as they said something bad, they would die without a place to be buried.

The courtyard was silent, and the nurse was the first to speak, "Hong Gongzi is usually naughty, but his heart is good, and he has never hurt anyone's life." ”

After the nurse finished speaking, she lowered her head.

The maid on the side also said: "Yes, yes, although Childe will beat and scold us on weekdays, but Childe is young, and those few times are insignificant." ”

These problems are really not problems among the children of official eunuchs. Aunt Guo listened to it and didn't say anything.

Xianglan continued: "So who was by his side when Hong Gongzi had an accident, and where were the three of you?"

The key question came, what Xianglan asked before was just to let the people present who didn't know Xiao Ruihong have a preliminary impression of him.

The scholar kowtowed directly and said, "On weekdays, slaves are not allowed to enter and leave the inner courtyard at will. When Childe had an accident, the slave was at home. ”

Xianglan looked at King Qing and Princess Qing, and then said, "You can go down." ”

The scholar staggered to his feet, and then returned to the crowd.

When the maid saw it, she hurriedly said: "At that time, the son was shouting to eat yesterday's candy, and the slave went back to get the candy, and she was not by the child's side." ”

Xianglan said: "Is there a witness?"

The maid shook her head and said, "It was still early, and the slave didn't meet anyone on the road." Oh, by the way, the mother who is in charge of the candy in the kitchen can testify for the slave. ”

Xianglan said: "Where are the people in the kitchen?"

Just asked one by one, and the most suspicious one was the nurse who accompanied Hong Gongzi.

But she has no reason to harm Hong Gongzi at all, Hong Gongzi is dead, and the most unhelpful thing is Hong Gongzi's nurse.

The nurse cried and cried, "It's all because the slave and maid are not good, I didn't look at the son, if the slave and the maid take a few steps quickly, the son will not slide to the ground." ”

Princess Jin said: "Your grade is not too big, why can't you even catch up with a child?"

The nurse cried: "In the morning, the dew was heavy, and the rockery had not been cleaned for several days, and moss had come out of some places on it. The slave and maid followed behind, slipped and fell, and when the slave and maid got up, they saw that the son had been planted. ”

She cried again.

At this time, Aunt Guo, who didn't speak, burst into tears.

Xianglan ignored her and continued, "Who is responsible for cleaning the rockery?"

The courtyard was quiet, and no one came out.

Xianglan looked at Mother Yang in confusion, and Mother Yang said, "Mother-in-law Wang, I remember correctly, where were you in charge before, and there were two little girls who were in charge with you?"

Mrs. Wang hurriedly knelt out, "Where was the slave and maid in charge before, but since the princess passed away, Aunt Guo..." she glanced at Aunt Guo, "Aunt Guo said that no one went anywhere, and it was cleaned once a long time, and she also said that there were not enough people in the house." ”

Everyone looked at Aunt Guo.

Aunt Guo was still crying, crying in pain.

The nurse looked up at the crowd and shouted, "Son, the slave and maid are coming with you." ”

As she spoke, she got up and crashed into a large vat of water in the middle of the courtyard.

Xianglan shouted, "Don't. ”

Listening to the 'bang', the nurse's head hit the water tank, and the water tank did not move, but the nurse fell to the side, and she was also motionless.

Xianglan sighed, "The matter has come to this point, I don't know if Aunt Guo still has any questions?"

Aunt Guo looked at the nurse who died and had mixed feelings.

Princess Qing got up and said, "The matter has come to light, so let Hong'er be in the ground!"

Aunt Guo didn't object this time, but looking at the expressions of the people in the courtyard, it was impossible for Aunt Guo to manage the Jin Palace.

King Qing and Princess Qing got up to say goodbye.

Dong Ruyi also got up to say goodbye to Xiao Ruizheng.

Princess Qing in the carriage didn't say a word, and King Qing said, "Does the princess have any questions about the interrogation just now?"

Princess Qing shook her head, "No, it's just that it's too early to toss, and the concubine is a little tired." ”

King Qing nodded, not thinking deeply.

In fact, Princess Qing really felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't find the problem for a while.

There was no problem with the question asked by Xianglan, and the death of the nurse was just an accident.

But... She couldn't tell what was wrong.

The Jin Wangfu was not finished because of the departure of King Qing and others.

After Xiao Ruizheng and Xiangju sent away King Qing's wife and Dong Ruyi, they found that the people in the courtyard still hadn't dispersed.

Mother Yang looked at Xiao Ruizheng, then glanced at Xianglan.
