Chapter 73: Self-inflicted iniquity

Wang Tong seemed to notice Dong Xiaoyou's gaze, she turned her face sideways and smiled at Dong Xiaoyou, Dong Xiaoyou was startled, and quickly withdrew her gaze, not daring to look at her directly. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Wang Xuan also turned his head to Liu Ying at this moment and said: "This matter is a family matter, how should Zhang Xiuer deal with it, and listen to his wife's instructions." ”

Liu Ying thought about it and felt that it was very tricky, now Zhang Xiuer's crime of adultery with others is already unclear, plus the person she wants to frame the imperial brother, it is impossible not to punish her heavily, but if the punishment is excessive, it will make outsiders say that she took this opportunity to get rid of the concubine, if it is not thoroughly investigated, she can neither move Zhang Xiu'er nor kill Zhang Xiu'er. But the meaning of the husband Wang Lang is obviously that he is unwilling to continue the investigation...... What a hassle.

But Liu Ying's eyes lit up immediately, she saluted Old Man Wang, and then said: "This matter is very important, with an elder like my father-in-law here, how can this palace go beyond the elders to do things?" The daughter-in-law is all up to her father-in-law. "Since it's inconvenient to dispose of it yourself, then leave it to Old Man Wang.

After hearing Liu Ying's words, Master Wang opened his eyes, and then said: "This matter must not be tolerated, my Wang family is also a famous family in Youzhou, drag Zhang Xiuer to the torture hall, sentence him to fifty lashes, drive him out of the house tomorrow, and then send someone to Zhang's house to explain the reason and return the dowry." ”

Dong Xiaoyou listened and reluctantly agreed, although Zhang Xiuer did not die, but was beaten fifty lashes and sent home, this humiliation ...... For her, a thirteen-year-old woman who has only been married for a few months, it is no different from letting her die.

Zhang Xiu'er's face was like ashes, and she knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to Master Wang: "Master, spare the slave family!" Even if you beat the slave family with a hundred lashes, don't drive the slave family out of the house! She burst into tears, kowtowed so that her forehead was bruised and swollen, this appearance was so miserable that even Wang Xuan couldn't bear to look at it, but her father's decision could not be changed, and it was not an exaggeration to give her suicide by her fault, but now she just drove her out of the house, which can be regarded as leaving a little affection for the Zhang family.

Master Wang didn't pay attention to Zhang Xiu'er's kowtow and begging for mercy, but waved his hand, and the two mothers-in-law took Zhang Xiu'er out, until she was dragged away from everyone's field of vision, and her cries were endless, which made people feel panicked when they heard it.

Dong Xiaoyou looked at Mrs. Zhang, who was sitting on the ground a little stunned, and thought: Next is her. But...... According to the twins, she has nothing to do with Changfeng's incident...... How can she be held accountable? And now that people are losing their beloved daughter, I'm afraid they won't be able to move Mrs. Zhang today.

When she thought of this, she felt very regretful, and even Liu Ying felt regretful: she finally seized an opportunity to bring down Mrs. Zhang.

At this time, Wang Yu suddenly walked in front of Dong Xiaoyou and pulled Dong Xiaoyou's sleeve: "Sister Rong'er, how can you say that you and our eldest sister Yan'er also met once, how did she die, don't you and your sister-in-law want to investigate clearly?" Yu'er remembers what you said before, you can't let our eldest sister die in vain. ”

Dong Xiaoyou was so frightened that she looked at Wang Yu with wide eyes, she didn't know what she wanted to say, it was clearly Wang Yan who was killed by Mrs. Zhang and Zhang Xiu'er, but now that Changfeng was killed with a cane and Zhang Xiu'er was convicted, she couldn't find evidence to prove that Mrs. Zhang was also a criminal? Could it be that the twins are going to turn their guns on themselves? Do they also want to blame themselves?

Wang Tong's eyes were bent, as if she could see through the worry in Dong Xiaoyou's heart, she walked over and gently held Dong Xiaoyou's hand, and said in a soft and kind tone that was slightly a little girl's flattering: "Sister Rong'er, don't be too careful, in fact, about the death of Sister Yan'er, Sister Yu'er and I, as her sisters, how can we not be unconcerned?" ”

Immediately, Wang Yu and Wang Tong walked up to Liu Ying and said, "Sister-in-law, we still have something important to tell you." ”

Dong Xiaoyou seems to understand that these two little girls now seem to be planning to completely defeat Mrs. Zhang by supporting the princess. It seems that they have more conclusive evidence in their hands than their own suspicions.

Liu Ying looked at the twins with more appreciation this time, she saluted to Master Wang and Wang Xuan, and said, "I implore the master and husband to allow Yu'er and Tong'er to tell their daughter-in-law everything they know." ”

Mrs. Zhang frowned: What the hell is going on? All her previous arrangements should be foolproof, at least she won't find out about herself, could there be other mistakes that have been found by the twins?

When Master Wang and Wang Xuan finally nodded, Liu Ying motioned for the twins to continue.

Wang Yu and Wang Tong immediately knelt down towards Master Wang and said, "Please don't be angry with your daughters, because it's about the safety of the palace, so we can't hide anything!" ”

Master Wang didn't have any expression on his face, he just nodded: "If you can find out the truth on behalf of your father, your father will only be happy, how can he be angry with you?" ”

Wang Yu then said: "Yu'er and Sister Tong'er have two things to say: the first is that Sister Wang Yan was poisoned, Mrs. Zhang and Sister Xiu'er didn't investigate what kind of poison it was, they only went to arrest people, although they caught a Changfeng, but they didn't notice another very important problem. ”

"The medicine that poisoned the eldest sister is not only highly poisonous, but also a poison handed down by the Xianbei people, this poison can not only make people die, but also make the person who is poisoned almost not feel very painful."

When Mrs. Zhang heard this, her eyes suddenly fell out: How could these two girls know? This is the poison she got from Mrs. Liu, she originally planned to poison the princess, but she didn't have the courage in the end, so she kept the medicine until it was used to poison Wang Yan, because she really hoped that her daughter could die as painless as possible......

"Changfeng is just a subordinate in the house, Yu'er has checked, he just embezzled wine money to buy meat last month, and was punished. How can this kind of subordinate have extra money to get Xianbei poison? And the price of the poison is very expensive. ”

Mrs. Zhang said fiercely: "Zhang Xiuer must have given him the money...... "Anyway, now Changfeng is dead, and there is no proof of death." Zhang Xiuer was also dragged down, so it was better to put all the blame on the two of them.

"But the problem is that Sister Xiu'er's money has hardly been touched, Yu'er and Sister Tong'er have seen the records of the account room, Sister Xiu'er has only been in the house for more than a month, she has never used her own money, the last time she rewarded the people in the whole house, it was the pressure box money in her dowry, and the money has not been used since then, and the monthly example issued to her by our house is only five thousand a month, that kind of poison, the price may not be less than twenty gold, right? Judging from Xiu'er's sister's money, she can't afford it. Let's go and check, Xiu'er's sister's dowry may not have been touched at all. ”

Liu Ying listened and nodded incessantly, but she immediately asked vigilantly, "You guys...... How do you two know so well? ”

"The elder brother of Aunt Fan's family is a Xianbei person, and she has been to our house for a walk, so our sisters have heard of that magical poison, and the sister-in-law can also look at the body of the eldest sister again, not only does there not have a painful expression on her face, but there is no sign of struggle on her body. Moreover, if we don't believe it, we can ask a doctor from Xianbei, but not Lang Zhong from the Han to conduct an autopsy. ”

When Mrs. Zhang heard this, she immediately glared at them viciously: "Aunt Fan's family has Xianbei people...... Looks like they must have gotten this medicine! ”

Wang Yu looked at Mrs. Zhang with disdain, and then said, "Madame, you can investigate well and investigate carefully...... Aunt Fan's family has never received any benefit from the Wang family for so many years. The elder brother's family in my aunt's family is tired and tired, and they can only make ends meet, how can their family have the money to buy such expensive medicine? And my aunt has never moved around all these years, and all the monthly bills issued to her every month are stored in her courtyard, and she has hardly moved much, how can it be born out of thin air if it costs so much money to buy poison? ”

"Who else will be the person in charge of the finances of the government all these years? I heard that this poison can't be kept for a long time, so it must have been bought in the house within this year, so I might as well ask my father to look at the account book...... Twenty gold is a large amount, and it is impossible not to go through the ledger. ”

"Besides, Yu'er has a word to say, about the flowers... The flowers usually bloom at the end of summer and are not easy to preserve, so they must be sealed with snow water at a high price. It's not summer yet, which means that the person who wants to poison the princess must have spent a lot of money to buy the flowers that were saved last year, and now they are ...... The eldest sister has already found out how much money she is greedy for, so she bought the money from the flowers...... Where did it come from? ”

"Yu'er and Tong'er know that's all, and ask my father, eldest brother, and sister-in-law to investigate carefully, don't let the person who tried to poison the sister-in-law and kill the eldest sister escape!"

Mrs. Zhang was stunned, she was confident that everything was arranged perfectly, but there was always no impermeable wall in the world, and it was undoubtedly extremely unfavorable for her to find out the problems in the account books, if she could successfully force Xu Rong to death, all this would not have happened, even if the problem of the poison was investigated in the future, there would be enough time to arrange, and the creation of that poison was a fake certificate bought by Xu Rong...... didn't expect that within half a day, things would change too quickly, no matter how smart she was, she couldn't do everything. Who would have thought that a few small flaws would be caught by the twins, and he was so paralyzed and careless before, he didn't even guess that there were two poisonous snakes around him!

But at the end of the day, the root of today's great change is the bag of ornaments, and if it hadn't been dropped, none of this would have happened, and the damned twins would not have seen that they were about to lose ground and stand up for themselves.

Mrs. Zhang looked up to the sky and sighed, one wrong step, and she lost the whole game...... I calculated it myself, and I was inexplicably calculated like this.

After listening to the twins' words, Liu Ying's face was already pale, if Mrs. Zhang was not an elder in the palace, she would definitely have a seizure on the spot. She glared at Mrs. Zhang fiercely, her hand had clenched into a fist, but she was very happy in her heart: she had long known that Mrs. Zhang was harming herself behind her back, and she had no evidence, but today, thanks to these twin sisters, Mrs. Zhang has already fallen into her own hands, and she is very grateful to the twins, these sisters are simply her lucky stars!

Master Wang's face finally changed, maybe what his wife had done, he knew it in his heart, but even he didn't have any evidence...... But I didn't expect that the two little daughters could actually debunk all this, it seems that the Zhang family is indeed exhausted, and now he will not protect her anymore, once Mrs. Zhang's murder of the princess is confirmed, it may indeed harm the whole family, but fortunately, the princess is sensible, but how can she be sorry for the princess for Mrs. again? And what shocked him was that his wife was really so vicious that she could kill her own daughter! Mrs. Zhang can no longer manage the palace, fortunately, although this princess is a little quick-tempered, it seems that she is not a person who only knows how to act willfully, but she has also asked for her and her son's opinions on major issues, and she is also a little skilled. What's more important is that now that the two daughters Wang Yu and Wang Tong are so smart, if the two of them assist the princess, maybe the palace will be better in the future than when the Zhang family was in charge of the inner mansion......

Master Wang finally made up his mind, he coldly glanced at Mrs. Zhang, who was still kneeling on the ground and holding Wang Yan's corpse, and said, "What are you still holding your daughter's corpse for?" Tiger poison still doesn't eat children, the old man really didn't expect it, madam, you are such a vicious person, come here! A few subordinates stood up, "Escort her down for me, the old man will not spare this time!" ”

Mrs. Zhang cried: "Master, master! The concubine is innocent, the concubine has worked hard for so many years as the palace, don't you show no mercy, master? ”

Master Wang shook his head: "Madam, what things should be done, what things must not be done, you are such a smart person, why have you become so confused now?" Alas...... Hold on! Actually, what he still wants to say is that he has given Mrs. too many opportunities, but Mrs. doesn't know how to stop, and has repeatedly played with fire, and finally has today's end, alas...... If this stupid woman had listened to her words as soon as possible, how could this have happened? Master Wang secretly scolded in his heart.

Immediately, Master Wang ordered someone to decorate Wang Yan's body well, but because of a series of things such as Mrs. Zhang and Zhang Xiuer, he couldn't bury it thickly, but just prepared a thin coffin, collected the body, and buried it hastily.

Dong Xiaoyou looked at all this indifferently: it's all over...... The people who framed her, the people who wanted to hurt her, didn't end well, things were definitely so smooth, but it was really chilling, a daughter like Wang Yan, who was once favored by Lord Wang, ended her life in such a hasty burial today... It is really self-inflicted, and it is not allowed to live.

All in all, it's all over! Dong Xiaoyou's heart finally let go, although a lot of things happened that she didn't expect, but things did end in the direction that was most beneficial to her.
