The old lady was still holding Xie's hand tightly with one hand, and gently pulled Jin Yi with the other, her tone was desolate, "Sister Yi, have you long suspected your uncle?" ”

Xie Shi came suddenly tonight, and resolutely said that the old lady knew that she had always been close to Jinyi, and knew that it must be Jinyi who made her make this decision.

Jin Yi nodded lightly, "I was also suspicious of Brother Chen'er's medicine at first, but later I found out that it was wrong from my mother's private property, and I guessed that he colluded with the Xu family to swallow those properties. As for the Buddha bead, maybe Xu didn't know about it, but ......"

The old lady raised her hand lightly and interrupted her: "Guilan has been recruited just now, and the Buddha beads were asked to be changed by Zhiwu." …… and your mother's death, it was also his idea to Xu Shi, who lied about Yekang and forced her to hang herself. ”

Jin Yi's eyes flashed sharply, she listened to what Yi Rui said, and always thought that the Xu family knew about this from her mother's family, after all, Xu Tongqing was a Shaoqing in Honglu Temple at that time, and he must have known the matter of Yekang's tribute first.

Thinking that Qin Zhiwu also served in Honglu Temple in those years, Jin Yi's heart was full of doubts, Uncle Cheng had investigated, after the death of Aunt Jirou that year, Yekang women from other families in the court fell out of favor and were abandoned. That is to say, Qin Zhiwu's news was obtained very early. But he was just a small official at the time, how could he know the emperor's thoughts? Did the emperor really mean to kill Yekang, or was there something else?

Did he help the Xu family kill Aunt Jirou, just to control the Xu family, and then plot to kill Qin Zhili, or was there another reason?

She didn't have time to think about it, and the old lady continued: "Xu's matter is her own fault, you don't have to think about it." She sighed, shed tears again, and said to Xie, "Mother is sorry for you! I can't imagine that I raised a wolf, and his wolf ambition is really crazy......"

Xie Shi choked up and said: "Chen'er is the only bit of blood and bones, mother ......"

The old lady nodded bitterly, "Don't worry, I will definitely protect him, and no one will hurt a hair of his hair again!" ”

After a long time, she waved her hand, "You all go back, let me think about it for myself." ”

Xie Shi glanced at Jin Yi blankly, and Jin Yi gently bowed to her.

The two instructed Yingxue and Ziyue to take care of the old lady, and then walked out.

The night is as cold as water, at this time it has passed the third watch, the previous noise has stopped, and the surroundings are quiet, but this silence seems to have a gloomy and depressing atmosphere, so heavy that people can't breathe.

When An Shi arrived at the attendant office before, he saw Yingxue leading someone to drag Guilan away. She looked at Lin with cold eyes and raised her eyebrows in anger, and was scolding Steward Zhang in the attendant office, scolding him for not taking a good look at the people in the courtyard, and even the lowly maid dared to run to the master's bed at night.

Steward Zhang was silent, and he didn't dare to come out. In the end, the Lin family had him beaten ten boards and fined him for half a year, and then he returned to Li Xiangxuan angrily.

With a satisfied smile on the corner of An's mouth, Shi Shiran also went back.

Jin Yi walked out of Fuxi Hall with the Xie family, and comforted her: "Fourth uncle and aunt don't worry too much about Brother Chen, now that my father has recovered, Qin Zhiwu's plan has been frustrated, and Brother Chen will no longer bear the brunt." …… The ancestors must have made some arrangements. ”

Xie Shi nodded lightly and sighed, "Qin Zhiwu is also his mother's son after all, the palm of his hand is meat, and the back of his hand is also meat. ”

"The old ancestor is a person who understands, and he should be able to think that if she wants to tolerate this matter again in order to protect the reputation of the Qin family, Qin Zhiwu will not stop."

Early the next morning, the old lady ordered someone to invite Qin Zhiwu.

He thought that his mother was going to persuade him not to quarrel with the Lin family, although this matter was fierce last night, but after all, he just slept with a girl in the house, he was not very worried, and he came over with a relaxed expression.

The old lady placed the thunder vine beads collected by Ziyue that day in front of him, and looked at him with a gloomy expression.

Qin Zhiwu's expression immediately changed greatly, and he knew that Guilan must have a grudge, so he confessed himself and forced himself to calm down, "Mother, do you believe what a girl said?" ”

The Xu family is dead after all, there is no proof of death in this matter, and Qin Zhili's poison has also been resolved, and he is not very afraid in his heart.

The old lady had expected him to be like this, and said in a deep voice, "Brother Chen'er's medicine was manipulated, and it has nothing to do with you?" Boss, how did you die, you know it, you really made me old and confused! ”

Qin Zhiwu was suddenly frightened when he heard that these old things had been turned over.

The fourth child has been dead for seven or eight years, and at that time everyone thought that he had always been in weak health, and no one was suspicious.

The hands and feet in Jinchen's medicine are even more hidden, these are all undocumented and unsubstantiated things, but coupled with Qin Zhili's poisoning, the three Qin family descendants are all pointing at themselves, and the old lady must have seen her thoughts clearly.

As if tearing his face with his wife, Qin Zhiwu was confused and suspicious at the moment, but he had a burst of relief in his heart, in the past, in this family, he always wore a mask and pretended to be benevolent, and he was already extremely aggrieved.

The fourth child is a sick son, and the second child has nothing to do, but after his father's death, he took the title. In the past ten years, Qin Zhiwu has been unwilling, he is diligent and motivated, but because of his concubine, he is not valued everywhere. I have worked hard for many years, and I can't even mix up with a waiter in the ministry. If they all die, the title of the Qin family will fall into their hands sooner or later, and who will dare to despise themselves at that time?

The old lady silently watched his expression change, and her heart was inexplicably sad, "Boss, they are all your closest relatives, how can you do it?" As a result, I had the best relationship with you back then, and Brother Chen was only five years old, could it be that my mother treated you badly and didn't treat you as her own son? You do such a thing without any concern for my heart? ”

Qin Zhiwu was silent for a long time, and sneered miserably, "Your heart? When you died, you couldn't even listen to a word from her, except for complaining that Xie didn't take good care of her. At that time, I knew that as long as I was more hidden, you would not deliberately pursue it, and the last time Brother Chen was poisoned, didn't you also avoid the seriousness and ignore it?

If you really regard me as your own son, you should let me take the title, and I will definitely make the lintel of the Qin family shine brighter, better than when my father was alive. …… For the sake of the reputation of the Qin family, you can let your granddaughter be sent to Shangxiutang, why can't you take more tests for me? What will he do with the second child? Cheng Ri only knows how to hide at home and pour antique calligraphy and painting. Who in the family is as diligent as I am? You know that I flatter people everywhere outside, and after so many years, I am only a five-grade master, why should I be willing? Why can't you fight for yourself? ……”

In the end, he roared hoarsely, and his face, which had always been clear and elegant, looked hideous and terrifying.

The old lady closed her eyes, and two lines of tears flowed down her old cheeks.

Indeed, if he hadn't blindly appeased and sought perfection, he wouldn't have dared to have such evil thoughts. Since the day he decided to sacrifice Jinyi and send her away nine years ago, I am afraid that Qin Zhiwu has planted an obsession in his heart, sacrificing his own brother for the sake of his title and future.
