Chapter 10: Retribution
As soon as these words came out, no one dared to squeak anymore.
Princess Zhaohua obviously didn't want everyone to talk about ghosts and gods, and she didn't believe that all the Yiqiē was just haunted.
But I have to say that the words of the subordinate just now invisibly plucked the fear of panic in everyone's hearts.
Regarding Princess Zhaohua's strong and decisive attitude of stopping just now, Ye Nianchen secretly affirmed that compared to Ye Ruxue, Princess Zhaohua's old ginger is indeed much spicier.
After a while, she took the initiative to speak up in agreement: "The princess is very right, this kind of thing must be investigated, and the reputation of the Ye family will be saved!" At the same time, we can't let people with a heart take the opportunity to make trouble and defile the souls of my mother and brother! ”
As a result, the subordinates were even more silent, and the subordinates who said in public that they were haunted just now did not dare to come out, and secretly scolded themselves for being stupid.
Forget about other occasions, why was she so inconspicuous just now, but in front of this newly returned eldest lady, she said that her mother was a ghost?
Princess Zhaohua is not a master who can be provoked, but this eldest lady is afraid that it is not a fuel-efficient lamp!
Princess Zhaohua glanced at Ye Nianchen meaninglessly, and then nodded slightly, expressing acquiescence.
Then, she confronted the man and asked, "How can a good person be so easily scared to death?" Have you checked carefully, are there any internal injuries or hidden injuries or anything like that? ”
She doesn't believe in any ghosts and monsters, these things must be inextricably linked to Ye Nianchen's return, but there is no evidence for the time being, not only to say it.
"Back to the princess, I have carefully checked it many times, even the surrounding area. It is true that the deceased did not suffer any internal or external injuries. And there are no traces of struggle before his death, and there are no traces of being moved or held hostage. ”
The man replied affirmatively, he had seen too many dead people, and there were really not many people who were scared to death at once like this.
Princess Zhaohua was not satisfied: "Even if you are really scared to death, you may be scared to death for no reason!" There are so many people in this world who pretend to be ghosts, so if you check it out more carefully, I won't believe that you won't be able to find any clues! I don't believe that people who don't believe in it are so silently scared to death! ”
"The princess is very right, this matter must be investigated thoroughly!"
Ye Nianchen once again echoed very solemnly, and expressed his support with a firm attitude: "Jinyuan is where my mother lived before her death, I heard that it has been a forbidden place in the house all these years, what can make her run here in the middle of the night despite the ban?" What terrible thing did you see that would be scared to death alive? ”
"Is this just Mama Liu's personal grudge, or is there something else hidden?" She looked at Princess Zhaohua steadily, and even the slightest change in her feelings did not miss a slight: "I implore the princess to find out as much as possible and give an explanation to my deceased mother, after all, my mother is the former mother of the Ye family, and no one can be slandered or disturbed!" ”
After saying the last sentence, Ye Nianchen made a symbolic salute, and without waiting for Princess Zhaohua to respond, he left straight with the people.
The corners of Princess Zhaohua's mouth moved slightly, but after all, she still didn't make a sound, and stood there coldly watching Ye Nianchen leave.
Everyone heard the unkindness in Ye Nianchen's tone, but the identity of the person was there, and he expressed his attitude under the banner of his biological mother, which was really not something that could jump out and refute it casually.
After all, even if it was Princess Zhaohua, she couldn't openly show disrespect to the lady who went first, let alone the people in the courtyard.
Looking at Ye Nianchen's arrogant back as he drifted away, many people had an extra memory in their minds, this lord is really not so easy to provoke, and there will be nothing to trouble in the future.
Only Ye Ruxue snorted coldly unconvinced, as if she wanted to take a step, but after all, she was stopped by the personal mother-in-law behind her.
"Mother, you just watched this dead girl be so arrogant and presumptuous in front of us, and didn't put you in your eyes at all?" After Ye Nianchen left, Ye Ruxue couldn't bear this breath after all.
"What's the use of just saying stupid things that don't work? What can you accomplish if you are so impulsive? ”
For the first time, Princess Zhaohua taught Ye Ruxue with a cold face: "If you have the ability to let her scold her and not fight back, whether she can fight back, I don't care about what you want to do, otherwise be honest and don't make trouble for me!" ”
Ye Ruxue was scolded in public by her mother for the first time, knowing that this would make her mother really angry, so she didn't dare to speak up in public, but all the hatred and resentment naturally came down to Ye Nianchen again.
She didn't believe that she would not be able to fight a cheap girl who came back from southern Xinjiang!
Seeing that her daughter had finally given birth to something, Princess Zhaohua commanded the others: "Remember it all for me, whoever dares to go out to chew the root of my tongue and disturb people's hearts in today's matter, I will definitely tear his mouth and pick his skin!" Let him regret that he has a lot of tongues and no long memory! ”
"Yes!"
Everyone responded again and again, not daring to disobey.
But Princess Zhaohua's ban still can't stop the world's innate exploration and curiosity about the unsolved and terrifying, and in less than half a day, the haunting of Jinyuan quietly spread in the mansion, and as for the spread outside the mansion, it was only a matter of time.
Almost everyone is convinced that Mrs. Liu was really scared to death by ghosts!
Of course, the ghost is not the other, it is the former lady and the eldest young master who were burned alive in the fire in the Jinyuan fifteen years ago.
Back then, the lady and the eldest young master did not die naturally, so it was normal for them to turn into ghosts after death.
As for why he found Mrs. Liu, it is naturally impossible to have nothing to do with it, but not everyone knows about things that are too long.
"You still don't know, the lady and the eldest young master died so miserably, and I heard that the fire was very inexplicable, and there is a problem here!"
Before going to bed, several older women in the back kitchen locked the door, and some of them couldn't wait to exchange the inside information they had heard privately today.
"Yes, I also heard about it, it seems that the lady and the eldest young master would not have been burned alive at that time, on the night of the accident, there was no one in the entire Jinyuan, and even the doors and windows were touched from the outside, and the inside could not be opened at all!"
The other took over mysteriously, "And there's more...... The woman Liu who was scared to death today was the one who served in the former lady's house, but later when something happened, not only was she not punished, but she became a celebrity next to the princess! ”
"Tsk, it seems that the accident back then was really not simple, no wonder Mrs. Liu would be scared to death! They all say that they don't concentrate on things, and they are not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night, in my opinion, this is being asked for their lives by unjust souls, retribution! The first person to squeak sighed.
"Shhhh The third person hurriedly warned and reminded him, this is really not a joke.
"Yes, yes, yes, you can't mix it up, if you let the princess know, you won't pick our skin! Don't spread the word, we can all trust it, so let's just talk about it privately. By the way, I also heard that the eldest lady almost died in the fire back then......"
"What? Is there such a secret? ”
"What a sin, no wonder you suddenly fell stupid at such a young age!"
"Oh, don't interrupt, hurry up and tell me how the eldest lady almost died in the fire!" The person who originally reminded him seemed to have forgotten his previous worries.
