Chapter 340: Something Ugly!
Xiao Ji is still very weak, a face is almost transparent, and with a stupid and stupid expression, it is difficult not to feel pity.
Encountering Jian Ying's encouraging gaze, she nodded timidly, and said in a hoarse and trembling voice: "He forced the slave maid to say that the second young lady is an impostor concubine, but the slave maid refused to say it, he ...... And he took the iron hedgehog against the slave and the maid......"
Before she finished her words, Old Madam Jian sneered angrily: "It is really a good means for the princess to be such a powerless little girl as a prisoner, who intends to bend into tricks, fabricate charges, and achieve the purpose of slandering and framing!" ”
Regarding this matter, it would be false to say that Meng Xinniang was not weak-minded, but in the matter of Jian Ying's punishment of her, she thought that she was alone and had a great reason, which was enough to eliminate that idea. Besides, Jian Ying can deny it, why can't she?
"Old Madam Jane, I have never tied up any girls, let alone extorted confessions from prisoners, please don't climb around."
"Grandmother, be angry." Jian Ying picked up the conversation and deliberately quoted what Meng Xinniang said, "It can't be fake, it can't be fake, no matter how well you pretend, there will always be a time to show your stuffing." ”
Old Madam Jian didn't really get angry, she just stood in the position of the Jian family and brushed her sense of existence at the right time. Hearing her say this, she snorted lightly, didn't say anything more, picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Taking advantage of Meng Xin's lack of nonsense, Jian Ying continued to ask, "What else did he force you to say?" ”
He also forced the slave maid to ask the second young lady, did the second young lady want to plot against the big house and try to persuade the second young master to compete with the prince for the position of the prince?
The slave said no, and he also took the iron hedgehog to deal with the slave and the maid......"
This last sentence was already a little choked. Sounds aggrieved.
What Xiao Ji said for the first time, Meng Xinniang could still deny the past relatively calmly, but the second time she said it involved the interests of the big house, she couldn't calm down, and couldn't help but say sarcastically, "What kind of master is really what kind of girl, lies come when you open your mouth." ”
Then he looked at King Ji'an, "Father, based on the words of this little girl, I conclude that I instructed someone to tie her up." Isn't that ridiculous? Besides, she is the second brother and sister. Naturally, she will say whatever the master teaches, and her words are not accurate. ”
Jian Ying sneered, "Sister-in-law's attitude towards others and herself is really different, and it is natural for her own girl to come out to testify." Confidently. My girl came out to testify, and it became a one-sided statement. The master's teaching, can't do it?
It's still the same sentence, it really can't be faked. If it is false, it can't be true, Xiaoji's testimony is not accurate, but there are always people whose testimony is accurate.
After that, he also looked at King Ji'an, "Father, daughter-in-law has other witnesses, bring them over and ask, everything will be clear." ”
"It doesn't matter how many witnesses you have, just bring them over and ask. I didn't do anything wrong, and I wasn't afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. In order to show that she had a clear conscience, Meng Xinniang also shouted with her voice open.
Both parties expressed their positions, and King Ji'an naturally had no objections.
The man was quickly brought in.
At first glance, when she saw Zhu Xian's family, Meng Xinniang was very surprised. Because Jian Ying said that there was no evidence, she took it for granted that catching Fan Huo was purely accidental. Even if the second room suspects that she instigated it, it will definitely not be able to find Zhu Xianjia's head. If she can't find Zhu Xian's head, she will be able to push it all away.
Ziqiang sent someone to find Zhu Xian's family, but she didn't find anyone, and when she told her, she was on her way to the front yard to find King Ji'an's complaint, and she didn't have time to delve into this matter at all. Just when Zhu Xian's cleverness was heard, Fan Huo was arrested, and he hid out to avoid the limelight for a while, but he didn't expect it to fall into the hands of the second room.
However, after being surprised, she quickly calmed down, because she was sure that Zhu Xianjia would never betray her.
When she saw Fan Huo, who was then escorted in, she was not surprised, but frightened.
It's not accurate to say "bet", in fact, Fan Huo was "dragged" in. His body was full of flowers, his clothes were stained with blood, and his mouth was covered with a bloodstained white cloth. Looking at the dying man, there was a crazy and grotesque light in his eyes.
Several ladies were also shocked by his bloody appearance, and their faces changed more or less.
"What's going on?" King Ji'an asked with a frown.
"Back to the prince, he tried to bite his tongue and commit suicide, but fortunately, the little one found it in time and rescued him." It was Longjing who answered.
Meng Xinniang was "concerned" and blurted out, "Then can he still speak?" ”
"His tongue wasn't completely severed, but it hurt a lot, and even if he could speak, his voice would probably be indistinct." Long Jing replied with his eyes down.
Although Meng Xinniang believed that Fan Huo had always regarded her as a life-saving benefactor, and she was a hard-mouthed master, most of them would not betray her, but if she didn't have any worries in her heart, it would be a lie.
Hearing that Fan Huo was speechless, he was overjoyed, and he couldn't wait to laugh three times, and even his waist, which couldn't sit up straight because of the pain, straightened up by three points.
"Father, come and ask." Jian Ying handed over the right to speak to the king of Ji'an.
King Ji'an nodded, and first asked Xiao Ji to identify the person who tied her up was Fan Huo, so at Jian Ying's request, he asked someone to carry Xiao Ji back to rest.
After reading the confession presented by Long Jing, he swept the two kneeling on the ground with a calm face, and then turned his eyes to Zhu Xianjia, who had a good mouth, "You said in your confession that the eldest daughter-in-law asked you to send a letter to Fan Huo and instructed him to tie up the second daughter-in-law's girl, is it true?" ”
Zhu Xianjia pressed his body lower, "Yes...... Yes, true. ”
Meng Xinniang thought that she would hear the word "no", but she didn't expect Zhu Xian's family to admit it, and for a while, the sense of surprise, disbelief and frustration of being betrayed all came to her heart, and she shouted out Zhu Xian's name in a hurry, "Ju Hong, what did you say?" ”
Zhu Xianjia didn't look at it, but he also knew what Meng Xinniang's expression was at this time, and she fell on the ground and wanted to cry without tears. She doesn't want to betray her master, but if she doesn't recruit her, her child will die, no matter how important the master is, she can't compare to the child, right?
"Princess, the slave can't stand you, and the slave can't help it." She vaguely expressed her helplessness.
Meng Xinniang was furious, "Father, the testimony is innumerable, Zhu Xian's family must have made them bent into a trick." And this groom, he can't speak, where did he get his confession? It's clear that they fabricated it in order to frame me.
You must be in charge of your daughter-in-law! ”
King Ji'an also felt that Fan Huo was hurt strangely, so he put it forward through Meng Xinniang's words, "This king is also very curious, this groom can't speak anymore, where did this confession come from?" ”
Zhou Shu, who had been silent, opened his mouth at this time, "Father, he bit his tongue and committed suicide after confessing. ”
King Ji'an became more and more confused, "He tried to bite his tongue and kill himself, but he was unwilling to confess, and since he had already confessed, why did he take this extra step and bite his tongue to kill himself?" ”
Zhou Shu raised his eyebrows slightly, "That's because I found something unsightly from his room!" ”
