Chapter 556: Out of the Hole
Meng Liu's voice was very eager and sharp, straight into everyone's ears.
Feng Yuyao glanced at her, and then looked back at the main hall, looking like she wanted to say something.
Meng Tanghuan's mood suddenly became gloomy, and he looked at Feng Yuyao sternly and asked, "What's the matter, hasn't the matter been dealt with yet?" ”
Feng Yuyao immediately lowered her head and said carelessly: "Originally, the evidence of the crime was conclusive, and only the sentencing was required, but it was just ......."
"Just what?" Meng Tang frowned, and said unhappily, "Yu Yao, you have been in charge of the middle feed of the inner courtyard of the Guogong Mansion for many years, and you usually act vigorously and resolutely, why are you so procrastinating today, is it difficult for everyone to miss the time for dinner?" ”
Meng Tang's words were a bit serious, and his dissatisfaction with Feng Yuyao was also very obvious, this could be said to be the first time that Feng Yuyao had been so harshly criticized by him since he entered the Guogong Mansion.
Feng Yuyao's eyes immediately turned red with grievances, looked up at her husband in disbelief, opened her mouth, and stopped talking again, and finally preferred to be wronged, stubbornly turned her face away and quietly wiped her tears.
To be honest, this is the first time Feng Yuyao has shown such a sad and aggrieved look in front of the concubines in the mansion, Meng Tang was shocked, and he felt that he cared too much about his wife and messed up.
Just as he was about to say a few words of comfort, Meng Liu's coquettish interjection on the side was disgusted and uneven: "Master, you have really wronged Mrs. Ping, it's not that Mrs. Ping doesn't want to solve the matter as soon as possible, but the county lord is young and can't see the essence of the matter clearly, so he has been delaying!" ”
Meng Liu just wanted to show his face in front of Meng Tang, and. She also realized that she was telling the truth, Qian Rong's criminal evidence was conclusive, and it stands to reason that she could be directly punished to death with a cane, and then thrown into a mass grave, and the matter would be over.
But Meng Guanshuang also asked those repeated words that were not allowed to be quibbled by Qianrong at all, and on the whole, didn't Meng Guanshuang have the intention to protect Qianrong?
Speaking of Meng Guanshuang, Meng Tang looked suspiciously at the eldest daughter who was standing next to Qianrong in the hall, and Xu Jingxuan, who dared to slap herself out.
Ahem! All right. can only say that he made a fatal mistake for a general. It will be chaotic and lose vigilance.
Moreover, the other party is still a little bully in the capital who is not afraid of heaven and earth, and there is really nothing he dare not do.
It's just that. Shuang'er should be the one who values Ru Yan the most. Why did she procrastinate? What about keeping Qianrong? Could it be that the daughter found something suspicious?
Meng Tang didn't know that when he learned that his wife had turned the corner and the child in his womb was safe, he had invisibly owed him more than ten years. The eldest daughter who was lost and recovered had an indescribable trust, and she didn't seem to hate Qianrong as much as Fang Cai, so she said to Feng Yuyao: "Maybe you still have something to miss, Shuang'er wants to find out the truth, so you delayed the hour!" ”
Feng Yuyao's body shook slightly, but fortunately, it was already dark outside at this time, and everyone was around Meng Tang, blocking the candlelight projected from the hall, so no one noticed her slight trembling.
"Yes! Xu is concubine was too nervous about her sister's safety for a while, and she missed something! She immediately said with tears in her eyes, "I think Qianrong is my sister's most trusted personal ring, and all the food she usually eats is taken care of by Qianrong, she shouldn't really be mad and treat her sister who loves her like this!" Shuang'er must have thought the same way, so she was careful and careful not to wronged Qianrong and not regret it for life! ”
"Hmm!" Seeing that Feng Yuyao was so knowledgeable, Meng Tang did not distrust Meng Guanshuang because of his young age, he nodded very happily, and at the same time took steps towards the hall, and asked, "Shuang'er, have you ever found a gap!" ”
The conversation outside, of course, reached the ears of Meng Guanshuang and the others word for word.
Qian Rong was already grateful and couldn't help sobbing, thinking in her heart that her loyalty to the eldest lady on weekdays was still visible to the sun and the moon, and everyone misunderstood her so much, it must be as Mrs. Ping said, it was caused by being too nervous about the safety of the eldest lady.
Meng Guanshuang glanced at Feng Yuyao, who walked in with Meng Tang, she didn't think that the woman who was bent on causing Qianrong to die would talk so well, maybe she was doing some kind of procrastination.
After all, if there is no evidence to prove Qianrong's innocence, Qianrong must have to spend the night in the private prison of the Guogong Mansion tonight.
And if something unexpected happens in the private prison, not to mention Meng Tang, it is the old lady, and probably will not be censored with great fanfare for a subordinate, and in the end, Qianrong's existence will disappear into the air like a bubble.
This is also the reason why she refused to let go easily and put Qianrong in private prison first without any evidence to prove Qianrong's innocence, even if she delayed everyone's Lantern Festival dinner.
Meng Guanshuang couldn't be sure at this time, she handed over the bellflower to check what she wanted, whether she could find it, so she could only continue to procrastinate: "Shuang'er has already gone to the bellflower to check, if there is no accident......"
Before her words fell, a person suddenly jumped out of the stab, knelt in front of Meng Tang with a pop, and kowtowed again and again, while shouting in a panicked voice: "Please forgive the slave and maid!" Please forgive the slave and maid......"
Such an abrupt scene immediately attracted everyone's attention to her.
Qian Rong looked at her in surprise, her face a little unpredictable.
Meng Guanshuang chuckled inexplicably in her heart, and always had a bad premonition.
"Who are you? Keep your head up! Meng Tang said majestically, staring down at the top of the head of the person kneeling on the ground.
This person is wearing a double bun and a small aqua blue jacket, and it can be seen from the costume that he is a second-class maid in the house.
Meng Tang doesn't often walk around in the inner courtyard, but stays in the willow courtyard, and often retreats from the subordinates to enjoy the sweet world of the two with Liu Ruyan, so in Liu Ruyan's courtyard, what he can know is Qianrong, the big girl who serves his beloved wife closely.
But Meng Guanshuang recognized it, this girl is called Shui Tao, and she is a little girl bought from outside through her request because she was not worried about the subordinate arranged by Feng Yuyan after Liu Ruyan returned to favor.
Because she is usually clever, very likable, diligent in her work, and very good at observing words and feelings, so in just a few months, Liu Ruyan promoted her to a second-class maid, and the treatment is also very generous, and she is usually very attentive with Qianrong, like a sister.
What does it mean for her to jump out at this time? (To be continued......)
