Chapter 46: The Truth Behind the Scenes
Lu Qinghuan secretly observed the coachman, and saw that his body was strong, and his voice was like a bell, not like he would be tired and fall asleep after staying up all night.
After asking carefully, it turned out that before Xia Niangzi and Xia Yinhua entered the temple that day, they had given him a bowl of tea.
asked some more questions, and Lu Qinghuan also had a bottom in her heart, she was not an official official, Pei Yuan asked her to take care of this case, but she was just giving her power to facilitate the investigation of the case, but she was not qualified to recruit people into the county government for interrogation. So he found an excuse and quietly called someone to take Xia Yinhua to Xiao Mansion.
The person who went to pick up Xia Yinhua only said that Xia Jinhua was sick and wanted to see her. But when she entered the Xiao Mansion, she saw Lu Qinghuan.
Knowing that Lu Qinghuan was investigating Xiao Dalang's case, Xia Yinhua was a little apprehensive, but she still calmly greeted her.
Lu Qinghuan quietly observed this Xia Yinhua and found that in addition to her slightly darker complexion, her facial features were very similar to Xia Jinhua.
Seeing that Lu Qinghuan kept looking at herself and didn't speak, Xia Yinhua was a little scared in her heart and smiled, "I don't know what happened to Lu Niangzi looking for me?" ”
Seeing that her eyes were flashing, she didn't dare to look directly at herself, obviously a little weak-hearted, Lu Qinghuan was even more sure of the guess in her heart, she pulled the corners of her mouth, revealing a cold smile, "I don't know if the silver flower lady ever knew that covering up and making false confessions are all going to prison?" ”
"Jail?" Xia Yinhua was shocked, she was a little girl from the countryside, although she had a spicy temperament, but after all, she had not seen much of the world, and when she heard that she was going to prison, she suddenly felt a little timid.
Seeing that she was scared, Lu Qinghuan continued: "You may not have seen what the cell looks like, but maybe when Xiao Dalang's case is closed, you will be able to take a look!" ”
"Look, what?" Xia Yinhua's face turned a little pale, and she began to tremble when she spoke, she remembered that she had promised her sister, and gritted her teeth and said, "I don't know what Lu Niangzi means by saying this?" I still have to go home to work, if the lady has nothing else to do, I'll go back! ”
As he spoke, he turned around and was about to leave.
"Wait!" How could Lu Qinghuan let her go so lightly? She sneered, "If you tell everything you are hiding today, maybe I can save you!" ”
Xia Yinhua trembled, turned her head to stare at Lu Qinghuan, and saw her look at her with a pair of clear eyes, as if she wanted to see her through, and suddenly became a little scared.
Originally, the things that her sister explained to her were not a big deal, but what happened to Xiao Dalang, she suddenly felt a little uncertain in her heart, and she always felt that this matter had something to do with the panic that her sister asked her to do. She had never lied, this was the only time, and it was for her sister's good, so she reluctantly agreed, but she didn't expect such a thing to happen.
Lu Qinghuan has been staring at Xia Yinhua, and it can be seen from her body language that her psychological defense line has begun to loosen, if she says a few more words, she may be able to force her to tell all the things she is hiding.
Just when she was about to speak, there was a voice outside, Lu Qinghuan raised her eyes to look out of the door, and saw Lin Xianling leading a few people to hurry over.
Lin Xianling and Lin Niangzi have a certain kinship, which was later sued by Gui Niang to Lu Qinghuan, and it is precisely because of this that Lu Jinyan values Lin Niangzi so much.
For the surname Lin, Lu Qinghuan was a little disliked, she pursed her lips, and waited until Lin Xianling stepped into the house, and then changed to a respectful smile.
"Lin County Order!"
Lin Xian Ling glanced at Lu Qinghuan, sighed, and then chose the upper seat to sit down, and immediately had a tolerance to serve tea.
After taking a sip of tea, Lin Xian Ling cleared his throat and said, "Listen to Pei Yushi, the Xiao family's case has been handed over to you?" ”
Lu Qinghuan was stunned in his heart, could it be that this Lin County Commander was dissatisfied with Pei Yuan's unconventional recruitment of himself as a foreign official, and he was here to find fault at this time?
Unsure of the attitude of Lin County's order, Lu Qinghuan didn't dare to be too presumptuous, thinking that he would be more or less concerned about the Cui family, and he shouldn't be too embarrassed by himself, so he smiled and nodded in response.
Lin Xian Ling nodded, did not express any dissatisfaction, just looked at Xia Yinhua, pointed at her and asked, "Who is this?" Why here? ”
Xia Yinhua has been kneeling on the ground since he entered the door, because she was a little afraid of Lin County's order, she only bowed quietly, and saw that Lin County's order was talking to Lu Qinghuan, she didn't pay attention to herself, and she didn't dare to get up.
At this time, Lin County Lingna looked at her, she felt the gaze above her head, and kowtowed a little scared: "The slave is the sister of the lady of the Xiao family......"
Lin Xianling waved his hand impatiently and motioned for her to go out first.
Lu Qinghuan frowned, she finally let Xia Yinhua loosen up a little, Lin County ordered to drive people away at this time, where did she go to find someone when she turned around? Besides, if Xia Yinhua didn't let go, she wouldn't be able to prove that Xia Jinhua had told a lie.
"Lin County Order, I have something to ask Yinhua Niang, can I let Er finish asking first?"
Hearing Lu Qinghuan's request, Lin Xianling's face suddenly darkened a little, and then he waved his hand, "Ask." ”
Lu Qinghuan bowed down and thanked the Lin County Order, and then looked at Xia Yinhua again, her voice was still shallow, but there was a threat in her words: "Our Lin County Order is here, if you still dare to hide it, beware of your head!" ”
Speaking of the back, Lu Qinghuan accentuated his tone, Xia Yinhua was bluffed, trembled, kowtowed, and said, "I really don't know what Lu Niangzi said......"
Lu Qinghuan saw that Lin County's order did not stop him from pretending to be a tiger, pursed his lips and smiled, and reminded Xia Yinhua, "Send the son Guanyin Temple." ”
In just five words, Xia Yinhua broke out in a cold sweat, she wanted to explain, but she didn't know whether to say it or not, if she did, would she cause trouble for her sister.
My sister married into the Xiao Mansion, which is pitiful enough, if she is still regarded as a murderer, this life will be over!
No, she can't hurt her sister!
Xia Yinhua shook her head vigorously, gritted her teeth and said, "What is the Guanyin Temple, I don't understand what Lu Niangzi means?" ”
Lu Qinghuan shook her head slightly, in fact, she didn't have to ask Xia Yinhua so much, as long as she went to the Guanyin Temple to ask, she could find out the clues, and this was just to give her a chance, and when the truth surfaced, Xia Yinhua could be less guilty.
Seeing that she was obsessed and bent on protecting Xia Jinhua, Lu Qinghuan couldn't continue to speak softly, and hardened her tone, "I only ask you, did Xia Niangzi go back to her parents' house with you?" Seeing Xia Yinhua open her mouth to answer, Lu Qinghuan stared at her eyes and asked her word by word: "Think about it clearly!" ”
Xia Yinhua looked at Lu Qinghuan's eyes, which were quiet and transparent, as if she had seen through her, and the word "have" in her mouth couldn't be spit out.
"Don't ask her, I'll answer." A hoarse voice came from outside the door.
