Xie Zhen made up his mind to investigate to the end this time, and he didn't even have to pass the hands of the Luo clan and the Yue clan, so he only replied to Mrs. Xie and personally arranged for someone to investigate.
First, traces of aconitum were found in Xie Tang's usual diet, and then someone was sent to search the kitchen, but no aconitum was found. So he took care of everyone temporarily, and quickly searched the people related to Xie Tang's diet one by one, and finally found a packet of aconitum powder from Chen Lan, the cooking daughter-in-law.
This Chen Lan was still the daughter-in-law of Tao's married family back then, and her husband is now doing chores in the shop outside, and she went into the kitchen because she made a good dish. The couple has a daughter on their knees, and now they are serving by Xie Tang's side, called Baicao.
When Dow left, he made a little arrangement, leaving the three most powerful mothers to the three siblings, and did not pay attention to these inconspicuous family members. Xie Zhen felt that this family was Tao's dowry after all, so he transferred Baicao to Xie Tang's side to serve, who knew that people's hearts were unpredictable, and now they wanted to harm Xie Tang?
That night, Xie Zhen locked up the family of three, interrogated them all night, and went to the old lady's study angrily the next morning. It didn't take long for someone to send someone to invite Mrs. Xie, Luo and Xie Jun's sisters and brothers.
Old lady Xie's study was in the outer courtyard, and when Xie Xuan and the others arrived, the old lady and the old lady were sitting in the hall, Xie Zhen stood at the bottom, and Chen Lan and Baicao knelt underground. Because Luo was at Mrs. Xie's place before, he came earlier, and he didn't have a seat to sit at this time, and he was forced to look at by Xie Jin's gaze, and his body trembled slightly.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Xie Zhen ordered someone to close the door of the hall, lifted his robe, and knelt down and said: "Parents are above, since everyone is together, my son will say it, right?" ”
Old Lady Xie nodded and said, "Find out something, tell the truth." ”
"Okay, yesterday I found aconitum in the chestnut cake that Yu'er ate, everyone knows about it, and now the facts have been ascertained." Xie Zhen turned to look at Baicao, who was kneeling on the ground, and scolded: "Tell the truth! ”
Baicao went through the toss of last night and night, and her spirit was very poor at this time, but the old lady and the old lady were in front of her, and she didn't dare to make any more mistakes and provoke anger, so she hurriedly fell to the ground and asked for guilt, crying: "The old lady forgives the sin, it was the slave who was confused for a while, so she listened to the instructions, and now she knows that she is wrong, and please ask the old lady to be gracious!" ”
She is only thirteen years old this year, and she opened her mouth to beg for mercy, but she didn't say the slightest truth, Old Lady Xie frowned, and said to Chen Lan: "You say." ”
Chen Lan bowed her head in silence, her face was ashen, "Please forgive the old lady, the slave has made a big mistake, and I dare not hide it anymore." The aconitum is indeed hidden in the hands of Baicao, and I put some into the diet of the third prince every day, since the fifth day of the first month, it has been more than ten days. The slave and maid were confused for a while, and the crime was unforgivable, and the old lady was asked to punish the slave and maid and spare the herbs. ”
The unforgiving old lady Xie didn't care, and only asked, "Where did the aconitum come from?" ”
"It's the Yinzhu girl next to Mrs. who found the slave maid, and the slave maid was afraid that someone would see her in the kitchen, so she asked Baicao to hide the ......" Chen Lan's words were not finished, and the Luo clan behind him had already changed his face greatly, and said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about!" ”
"Luo Qi!" Xie Zhen scolded angrily, his eyes sharpened towards Luo, containing a rare anger.
Luo was stunned by him, and then heard the old lady Xie say coldly: "Where is Yinzhu?" ”
"My son brought her over last night, and she was outside, and she recruited them all." Xie Jin's gaze fell on Luo Shi, and his disappointment was overflowing, "Luo Qi, last time you plotted against Xuan Xuan outside the Xuan Miao Temple, the old lady thought that you were a first offender, and spared you, and you knelt down in the ancestral hall for half a year, and you didn't have the slightest remorse?" ”
"It's not me, sir, it's not me!" Roche hurriedly knelt on the ground and shook his head hurriedly.
Xie Zhen just sneered, stretched out his hand and pushed away the Luo who was holding on his lap, with an indifferent expression. This matter has come to this point, basically Xie Zhen has confirmed the result, and today he is just reporting to Mrs. Xie.
He didn't even need to bring up any more witnesses to confront him, he just glanced at Baicao and Chen, and said, "These two Diao slaves intend to murder their masters, and the son plans to send them to Zhuangzi, what does the father think?" ”
Old Lady Xie was condescending, looking at Baicao and the Chen family like ants, "Intent to murder?" Aconitum has entered Tang'er's diet, just intending to murder? If you don't take good care of your diet, but have evil thoughts in your heart, if you are forgiving, how will you control your subordinates in the future? The rules of the house are clearly written, and this kind of evil anger is unforgivable! The old one was pulled out and killed, and the small one was sold far away. ”
- Chen Lan's family is all slaves, and to Old Lady Xie, such people are like ants. What's more, his family was able to enter and serve thanks to the favor of the Tao family, but now he is revenge and is bought to harm the master, which is really a taboo for the old lady Xie.
Old Lady Xie seemed to remember someone's face, looking ahead, his face was indifferent.
