Chapter 53: Confession (Guessing the Case with a Prize)

On the second day, it was decided that the troops would split into two routes. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Hazy Moon and Pothos go to find Peony. Ru Yan, Yu Heng and Yuan Feng went to Ning Mansion.

Since Ru Yan and others saved Jinxiu and Ning Tao, Ning Zhizhang is very grateful to Ru Yan. Seeing that Ru Yan and the others were coming, he welcomed them into the Ning Mansion very warmly.

As soon as I entered the hall of Ningfu, I found that Liu Yuanqing was also there.

Liu Yuanqing naturally knew what Ru Yan and his party were doing.

"My lord, the villain knows the crimes committed by the little girl, even if I beg you. Or using the side door evil way like Yi Lang can't stop you from taking the little girl. I just ask adults to see the old age, the selfishness of the beloved daughter, can the little girl recuperate for a few more days, and then take it away when her body recovers? As he spoke, Liu Yuanqing burst into tears again.

"Patriarch rest assured, even if I want to take Jinxiu away, I will naturally have to wait until her body recovers, I just came today to ask Jinxiu about some details of the case!" Ru Yan replied.

Ning Zhizhang hurriedly motioned to the maid to call Jinxiu.

After a while, Jinxiu came to the hall with Ning Tao's support.

"The life-saving grace of adults, the splendid toothless unforgettable!" Jinxiu saluted Ru Yan.

"Get up, I saved you yesterday, but it doesn't mean that this official will punish you for your sin. I just don't want you to die under lynching, which is not allowed by the imperial court! Ru Yan said.

"Jinxiu understands it, but this does not affect Jinxiu's gratitude to adults!" Splendid replied.

"You're not fully well, so don't stand, sit down and talk!" Yu Heng said.

Jinxiu saluted again, nodded and sat down opposite.

"Jinxiu, this official came to you this time to ask you some details about the murder of Guo Shaoyao, and I hope you will tell the truth!" Ru Yan said.

"My lord, please speak, the splendid self-knowledge is everything, and the words are endless!"

"Very good, first question, why did you kill Guo Shaoyao?" Ru Yan asked.

"It's because ...... It's because I'm ...... I'm jealous that she can get more love from her husband! ”

At this time, Ning Tao's face showed shame.

"Really?" Ru Yan asked.

"Yes!" "After the day of the Kao Contest, I secretly followed her all the way to Lover's Slope. It was getting dark that day, and everyone was tired from the party, so Valentine's Poe was empty, and I thought it was a good time to start. So, I pushed her from behind while she wasn't looking, and she rolled off. I didn't want to kill her, I just wanted to vent my dissatisfaction and disgust with her. Unexpectedly, she hit her head on a stone when she rolled down. After the incident, I was very scared, I wanted to save her, I ran down the slope to look for her, but because the vine was too dense, I searched for a long time and did not find it, at that time, I was very scared, so I quickly ran back, because I was in too much of a hurry, one of my shoes also fell under the lover's slope. ”

"But Old Madam Ning said that you didn't leave Ning Mansion that day, could it be that Old Madam Ning helped you commit perjury?" Ru Yan asked.

"No, it's me who is sorry for grandma. During that time, my grandmother was not in good health, and I was taking care of her lying in bed. That day, I secretly put some stun medicine in my grandmother's medicine, and then I told her to help her make lotus seed soup. I asked Cherry to help me make lotus seed soup, and when I came back from Lover's Slope, I brought the lotus seed soup to my grandmother. At this time, my grandmother also happened to wake up from the drug, and she thought that she had only slept for a short time, but in fact she had been sleeping for several hours. It's me who lied to my grandma, I'm sorry for my grandma, and my grandma has always believed in me in vain! Jinxiu said reproachfully.

"You kid, alas, fortunately, the stun medicine is not harmful to her old man's body!" Ning Zhizhang said helplessly.

"It's me who's bad, it's me who's sorry for grandma!" Jinxiu cried and repeated the sentence.

"So, why did Peony suddenly go to Lover's Slope?" Yu Heng asked.

"I ...... I do not know! ”

"Lie!" Ru Yan yelled and startled everyone.

"If you don't know why Peony went to Lover's Slope, you were originally in Ningfu and Peony was in Kawangping, how did you accurately track her down to Lover's Slope? It can be seen that you have long mastered the whereabouts of peony, and you know the reason for this! ”

"I ...... I...... I do not know! ”

"Child, tell the adults what you know, cooperate with the adults, have a better attitude, and maybe you can get a slightly lighter sentence!" Yanagihara Qing anxiously reminded Jinxiu.

"Dad, it's not that you don't say it, it's that you can't say it!" Jinxiu replied.

"Jinxiu, there is nothing that can't be said now, just say it!" Ning Zhizhang also said.

Splendid is still hesitating.

"Splendid, you can say it!" Ning Tao looked at Jinxiu with encouraging eyes.

"Well, Peony goes to Lover's Slope is...... Be...... A private meeting to remember! “

"What?" Everyone was taken aback.

"Peony and Yilang? It's impossible! Ning Tao said he couldn't believe it.

"Possibly!" Yu Heng replied, "Otherwise, why is Yi Lang so concerned about this matter, and he must put Jinxiu to death?" “

"I still can't believe it!" Ning Tao said, "Although Peony has a very bad temper, it is a high-flying person, and there is no one in his eyes. But...... However, she ...... She's not that kind of person! ”

Jinxiu's eyes showed sadness, "Husband, this is true, please believe me." I once saw Peony and a man standing under the apricot blossom tree, acting quite intimately, and that time standing far away, I only saw the side of the man, a bit like Yilang. Another time, I saw a purse embroidered by Peony, and later on an open day, I saw the purse hanging on Yilang's waist in Wudong. ”

"This shameless woman, hey, it's really unfortunate at home, unfortunate at home!" Ning Zhizhang scolded angrily.

"The reason why I haven't said these things is because of the honor of my husband and the Ning Mansion, and the second is that Yi Lang's power in Kao Village is incomparable even if the Ning family and the Liu family are combined, and I don't want to hurt the two families at that time. It was last month that I learned that Peony was going to meet the man again on Kao Day. I calculated that the Kao Festival was almost over, so I quietly went to Lover's Slope, and I wanted to confirm whether the man was Yilang. The second is that I want to persuade Peony to turn back. Unexpectedly, when I arrived at Lover's Slope, Peony found me, and she not only did not listen to my advice, but also insulted me. I was so angry that I couldn't help but push her ......".

"Alas, you can endure it when the peony shows off its power in front of you, but you didn't hold back that day, alas, the will of heaven is so!" Ning Zhizhang lamented.

"Master, I'm sorry, it's all not good. Peony abused me more than ever that day, and she even said that I was ...... Say I...... It's a woman that no one wants, otherwise I've been married for two years, and my husband hasn't touched me! Jinxiu blushed and lowered her head.

At this time, everyone looked at Ning Tao in unison.

Ning Tao's head pressed even lower.

"Alas, I can't say it in front of adults because I'm also a family ugly, but since I've already said this, Ning Tao, let's make it clear today, what point of our family is not worthy of you, let you dislike her like this and abuse her!" Liu Yuanqing asked Ning Tao sharply.

"I ...... I'm ......", Ning Tao swallowed, and suddenly, Ning Tao slapped himself several times, "It's all my stupidity, it's all my blindness." “

"Husband, don't!" Jinxiu cried and touched Ning Tao's red cheeks with her hands.

"Four years ago, I was passing by Yerba Bua Road and picked up a kite with a broken string on the side of the road. The kite was inscribed with a poem, "The dark fragrance is full of sleeves and sorrow, and the floating life is like a dream." Allure smiled and was infatuated and drunk, and there was a flat boat in the depths of the sea. "Just as I was indulging in the talent of the poet, a young girl came to me, and that woman was Peony. I thought the poem was written by Peony, but I didn't know that it was originally written by the hand of Splendid on the ruined wall beside Yerba Grass Road. Since then, I fell in love with Peony at first sight, and it was not my reluctance to marry her, including my father's willingness to let me marry Jinxiu. After Jinxiu married into the Ning family, she was very virtuous, very good to her subordinates, to me, to my father, and my grandmother, but I still only have respect and no love for her! “

At this time, Jinxiu had already burst into tears.

Ning Tao carefully wiped away her tears, "I used to be stupid, but now I understand that I want to cherish you, but I don't have a chance!" “

"What a sin!" Ning Zhizhang said sadly.

"So, where did you go in the time after Kao's Day?" Ru Yan asked Ning Taodao.

"According to Ping'er, you went to steal another woman?" Yu Heng asked.

"That's right, I did meet a woman!" Ning Tao replied truthfully.

"What?" Liu Yuanqing was so angry that he wanted to pounce and hit Ning Tao, but was stopped by Ning Zhizhang.

"In-laws, don't worry, listen to the child's explanation first!"

"On that day, the woman I went to see was Peony!" Ning Tao replied.

"Ning Gongzi, your words are too contradictory, right? You see Peony every day, and at the end of the Kao Conference, Lilac also sees you arguing with Peony. Why did you go out of your way to see the peony again? Ru Yan asked.

"I'm going to see another peony!" Ning Tao replied.

"Another peony?" Ru Yan asked puzzled.

At this time, not only Ru Yan, but everyone was very puzzled.

"Yes, another peony, that peony she will not be unreasonable, will not be arrogant, not hypocritical or mean. That peony is gentle and considerate, kind and demure. Just like the beautiful fairy who walked towards me from the grass road! When Ning Tao said this, his eyes flashed brightly, and he seemed to have returned to the beauty of four years ago.

"Hehe, I think you're dreaming!" , Liu Yuanqing sarcastically said unceremoniously, "Has she ever been gentle with peony?" Has she ever been kind? “

"Be gentle, be kind! It's just that it's pretending to be shown outside! Ning Zhizhang added.

"I also know that Peony in reality is a nuisance, but every time Peony asks me out, it gets very good. It's really good, she's real, not something I fancied about. However, as soon as he returned home, the peony immediately turned into a very terrible appearance! “

"Could it be that the peony is mentally problematic? Will split into two different selves? Yu Heng was puzzled.
