"Are you telling the truth?"

Without waiting for Xu Zigui to speak, Xu Ziruo opened his mouth first, but he didn't expect that the punishment Xu Zigui said would take a human life

Hearing Xu Ziruo's question, Zidai kowtowed to Xu Ziruo firmly, grief-stricken, "What the slave said is true, if the third lady doesn't believe it, you can call Yancao and others to ask"

Xu Ziruo saw that Zidai said it was true, and looked at Xu Zigui with some uncertainty, but saw Xu Zigui nodding at Zidai with a calm expression, "Just call them all in."

After that, he glanced at Zi Dai sternly, "Zi Dai, if what you said today is untrue, I will have to give you a meal to eat when I turn around."

"The slave and the maid" said this, bowed, and went out to welcome the three men in.

While Zidai and Bisi were going out, Xu Ziruo looked at Xu Zigui with an incredulous face, "Eldest sister, how could it be?"

"What?" Xu Zigui raised his eyebrows, although he knew what Xu Ziruo wanted to ask, but Xu Zigui didn't plan to tell her, after all, there were too many things involved, and there was no need to make everyone panic before it was determined

"Green smoke is a human life after all, eldest sister...... How can you" Xu Ziruo's lips trembled slightly, he couldn't believe it, sitting in front of him with a bright smile, a gentle and lovely woman would kill a person without moving

Seeing that Xu Ziruo was so nervous, the corners of Xu Zigui's mouth couldn't help but hook, "Third sister, do you think I killed Green Smoke?" ”

"No...... Isn't it? Xu Ziruo's voice trembled a little, but Xu Zigui smiled noncommittally, and gave Xu Ziruo a silent look, "They are coming"

Xu Ziruo felt that Xu Zigui at this moment was really terrifying, although he had a gentle smile on his face, but in Xu Ziruo's eyes, he felt as cold as being in an ice kiln, and even made Xu Ziruo feel that Xu Zigui was not possessed by something, not at all like her gentle and lovely sister.

Seeing her expression at the moment, Xu Zigui naturally knew what this girl was thinking in her head, but she didn't want to debunk it, she only looked at the few people kneeling under her with a smile, and said gently, "Zi Dai has already told me a rough idea of what happened, as for the specifics,"

As he spoke, he glanced around at a few people, glanced at Yancao a few times with a smile, and finally fixed his eyes on Chunhua, "Chunhua, you say it first"

"Yes" Chunhua knelt respectfully and saluted, and then he was able to tell the story of the courtyard in detail

"At the end of the summer, I was looking for acacia flowers in the courtyard at the girl's order, but we didn't want to overhear the dispute between Sister Yancao and Green Smoke by the lake

Xia Mo and I thought it was just two girls playing and teasing, so we didn't pay much attention to it, until we heard the green smoke exclaim, we looked at the lake, but found that Yancao pushed the green smoke into the lake with one hand."

"Oh? Is it? Xu Zigui glanced at Yan Cao kneeling beside him with a smile on the corner of his mouth, only one glance, but it made Yan Cao feel cold on his back, as if he was going to be seen through, it was obviously a human life, and it was an extremely sad thing, but Xu Zigui had a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he could come up with such an idea of killing two birds with one stone, which shows that this woman is really not simple.

"It's not like this" forcibly suppressed the panic in his heart, Green Smoke kowtowed to Xu Zigui, and was about to open his mouth to defend himself, but was interrupted by Xu Zigui's eyes

"Presumptuous! The master didn't ask you, how could you have a chance to speak! ”

Interrupted by Xu Zigui's stern scolding, Yan Cao didn't dare to interject again, so she had to kneel on the ground obediently and listen to Xu Zigui's master and servant's questions and answers

"What do you hear both of you arguing about?"

"Because of the distance, some slaves and maids can't hear very clearly, but they hear a few words of 'bracelet, big girl' or something, probably because of something outside of their bodies."

"Bracelets?" Xu Zigui glanced at Yan Cao with a smile, "Yan Cao, what kind of bracelet do you say?" ”

Hearing Xu Zigui mention the bracelet, Yan Cao thought that when he met Xu Zigui, Xu Zigui rewarded himself with silver, seeing that Xu Zigui seemed to have amnesia at the moment, he didn't remember the bracelet at all, and Yan Cao knew what Xu Zigui was thinking about as soon as his brain turned, and quietly took off the bracelet in his wrist and hid it at the cuff, and used dark force to smash the jade bracelet, so as to open his mouth as calmly as possible

"The slave doesn't know what Sister Chunhua said."

"Don't know?" Xu Zigui raised his eyebrows and sneered, "I will reward the green smoke bracelet a few days ago, and today someone said that you and the green smoke quarreled over some bracelet by the lake, Yancao, you don't think this kind of thing is too coincidental."

"There are many coincidences in this world, and the eldest girl can't conclude that Green Yan's death was done by the slave because of this coincidence" Now that she knows Xu Zigui's plan, Yan Cao has a bottom in her heart, and she is a lot calmer when she speaks

Xu Zigui saw that Yan Cao had changed from the previous panic to so calm in an instant, and knew that Yan Cao knew his plan, and had already thought of countermeasures, it seems that the person behind them is a character, and all of them are talents, but it's a pity that Zhu Jin, a maverick girl, Xu Zigui's mouth couldn't help but show a sneer that seemed to be nothing, and immediately changed his plan

"Since you are so sure, I don't embarrass you for anything, but I will reward you with the jade bracelet and the one I rewarded to Green Smoke happened to be a pair, and now Green Smoke is gone, I don't want to see things and think about people, I told Zidai to take the bracelet on Green Smoke's hand and give it to you."

After saying that, he waved at Zidai and motioned for Zidai to do what he was told.

Although she didn't know what her master was going to do, Zi Dai still suppressed the doubts in her heart, and got up quietly and walked out of the inner room.

Seeing that Xu Zigui didn't play cards according to the routine, Yan Cao also raised her head in shock, a little unsure of what Xu Zigui was thinking.

Seeing that the calm on Yan Cao's face was no longer there, Xu Zigui sent a sneer to Yan Cao, and said meaningfully, "Yan Cao, if the matter of green smoke is really your doing, do you think your master will continue to keep you, huh?" ”

Of course, the master Xu Zigui said did not refer to Xu Ziruo, but the person behind Yancao.

Yan Cao naturally understood Xu Zigui's meaning, and pretended to smile at Xu Zigui calmly and said, "The slave is indeed wronged, the slave and the maid have not even seen the shadow of green smoke when they pass by the lake, how can they become slaves and maids are murderers?"

"What are you afraid of" Looking at Yan Cao, who was kneeling on the ground and trembling slightly, Xu Zigui sneered with satisfaction, but his face was full of gentleness, and the smile was full of tenderness, "I'm just asking like this, whether you are wronged or not, I naturally know in my heart"
