"You get up first." Wang Zhangshi's face was gloomy, but what was even more gloomy at this time was his mood, he did everything he could, but he didn't count that as soon as Yu Niang came in, he didn't even finish the scene, and he was brutally murdered.

Different from Wang Hua's grief and resentment, Wang Zhangshi at this time, in addition to anger, also felt a trace of fear in his heart. Because the location is different, the direction of thinking about things will be different. Regarding Wang Yuniang's death, the first thing that Wang Zhangshi thought of was not that the incense slaves were poisoned because of their anger, but that this was a warning given to him by Bai Xiangshi!

He knew that Bai Xiangshi was already very dissatisfied with him now, but he didn't expect this warning to come so quickly.

Bai Xiangshi knew the relationship between him and Wang Meiniang, and he also knew that he did have some love for that woman, but when he sent Wang Meiniang over to confess the crime, Bai Xiangshi did not hesitate to order someone to beat Wang Meiniang in front of him for thirty boards. And, deliberately holding a breath, to see if he saves or not, after he brings people back.

Of course, he didn't save it, but if he did, he was dissatisfied with Bai Xiangshi's punishment.

He ruthlessly gave up Wang Meiniang, thinking that Bai Xiangshi would be somewhat angry, but he didn't think that his next preparation had just begun, and Bai Xiangshi immediately gave him another warning!

Two lives are enough to prove Bai Xiangshi's determination.

Wang Zhangshi's face became more and more gloomy, Wang Hua only thought that Wang Zhangshi was doing this for Wang Yuniang's death, and after standing up according to the words, he continued: "Uncle, Yu Niang has just entered here, it is impossible to make enemies with others, unless, unless someone feels that Yu Niang is in his way, and he has a grudge in his heart and poisons Yu Niang!" ”

Gui Zhi lowered his eyes and hid the joy in his eyes. Things turned out to be as she thought, Wang Yuniang's death. Not only will others not suspect her, but they will target An Lan. It's for her. It's a good thing to kill two birds with one stone!

Lu Yunxian frowned slightly, Wang Hua's words were obviously aimed at An Lan, and the Xiang Envoy's exam was recommended by An Lan by her, no matter what happened, she had a certain responsibility. Therefore, as soon as Wang Hua's words fell, she said: "I have just calculated the time when Wang Meiniang was murdered, and if you want to find out who the murderer is, you just need to ask." Where and what everyone was doing during that time. ”

Wang Hua paused, had no objection, and looked at Wang Zhangshi.

Wang Zhangshi was silent for a long time with a gloomy face before he nodded and approved Lu Yunxian's suggestion. Now that Bai Xiangshi has made up his mind, he can't help but think about himself.

The incense slaves who worked in the incense field were the first to be excluded. It's just that when the list was read An Lan and the Golden Finch, Wang Hua was stunned for a moment, and Gui Zhi raised his eyes in disbelief.

How can it be!?

"The incense slaves who participated in the incense envoy exam today can take a day off." Even Xi'er looked at An Lan and the Golden Bird with some puzzlement. "Why don't you two know about this?"

An Lan said: "Today, you can score points for working in the incense selection field. ”

Lian Xi'er was stunned, and then remembered the rules in the incense courtyard. The Channus had one day off every month. But on such days, there are still those who are willing to work. The grandmothers in the incense selection field will give the incense slave another score. When the score reaches a certain amount, it can be used to exchange incense. Although they are all very ordinary incense products, there are still many incense slaves counting on this thing.

Lu Yunxian glanced at Lian Xi'er, took the daily booklet of the incense selection field, and turned out the time when An Lan and Jinque entered and exited today and pointed it out to Lian Xi'er and Wang Hua, and Lian Xi'er didn't say anything anymore, although Wang Hua didn't want to believe it, but in front of the facts, he couldn't say anything else, so he had to turn his head to look at Wang Zhangshi.

Wang Zhangshi didn't suspect An Lan, but he wanted to know who was the poisoner, and who was bought by Bai Xiangshi to deal with him secretly. He had to find this man, or he would have to live a life every day.

Wang Zhangshi ignored Wang Hua's eyes, after the incense slaves who went to work in the incense field today were eliminated, there were still five incense slaves who went out on business. Three of them have already returned, and even Xi'er called them out one by one for careful interrogation, and there was nothing suspicious in terms of time, while the other two who had not yet come back were put aside for the time being.

In addition, there are lychees and cinnamon sticks that were not asked.

Lychee's face was already pale, and when she looked at Lian Xi'er at her, she stammered: "I, I've been on the lotus pond all along, and He Xiang is suspicious to testify for me!" I told He Xiang, and besides, An Lan and Golden Bird also know! ”

Lian Xi'er asked, "Did you go to the lotus pond by yourself?" ”

"She, they don't want to go." Lychee was so anxious that she was about to cry, and looked at Aunt He for help, Aunt He didn't dare to get into trouble, so she looked away, and the other incense envoys also stood aside silently, watching this scene with cold eyes. Although not everyone is hard-hearted, everyone knows that Mingzhe protects himself.

An Lan glanced at Lu Yunxian quietly, Lu Yunxian hesitated for a while, and then said: "There have always been two mothers-in-law in the lotus pond to take care of you, when you passed, did they see you?" ”

Lychee was reminded by Lu Yunxian, so she thought about it and nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, Mama Zhang also told me not to pick those lotus pods, yes, it is Mama Zhang, you can ask Mama Zhang!" ”

When she ordered someone to go to Mama Zhang, Lian Xi'er looked at Guizhi: "What about you?" ”

Gui Zhi glanced at Wang Zhangshi before saying, "I went back to rest for a while, and I went back with An Lan and Jinfinch." I just rested for a while, and remembered that the boss told me a few days ago that he liked to eat the rose cake I made, so I got up and went to pick roses again. ”

Wang Zhangshi glanced at her, his face still ugly.

Lian Xi'er quietly glanced at Wang Zhangshi, and when she saw that Wang Zhangshi didn't say anything, she asked again: "Did you go to the flower garden to pick it?" ”

"It's not." Gui Zhi shook his head and withdrew his gaze from Wang Zhangshi, "There are people watching the flower garden, not allowing them to be picked, and a few bushes of roses have been planted behind the courtyard of the master's house, and they are blooming just right, so where did I go." ”

"Can anyone see that?"

"Yes, Caryophyllus." Gui Zhi looked at the caryophyllus, "At first, the caryophyllum didn't let me pick it, but I heard that I was making flower cakes for the master, so I didn't stop it again." ”

Lian Xi'er looked at Shi Zhu, who nodded expressionlessly.

At this point, all have an alibi.

Lian Xi'er looked at Wang Zhangshi with some embarrassment, Wang Zhangshi's face became more and more ugly, and things must not be so simple. But there are no people around him who have the talent to solve cases. If you want to find out who this person really is, you can only leave it to the people in the criminal court to find out. But. Giving this matter to the criminal court is equivalent to handing it over to Bai Xiangshi.

This is the warning given to him by the White Incense Master. He can only admit this dumb loss!

And at this moment, the mother-in-law who guarded the door hurriedly came over and said that Bai Xiangshi had sent someone over, because of Bai Xiangshi's hand, they didn't dare to stop it, and they had already opened the courtyard door to let people in.

Wang Zhangshi snorted coldly with a calm face, then shook his sleeves and turned to leave.

Wang Hua was stunned for a moment, looked left and right a little helplessly, and then looked at Wang Yuniang's corpse. Gritting his teeth, he turned around and followed the king.

Lu Yunxian looked thoughtfully at the back of Wang Zhangshi's departure, and it was not until she couldn't see that she withdrew her gaze and looked at An Lan.

Lian Xi'er couldn't figure out what Wang was meant, so she hesitated for a while, so she had to ask the incense slaves to go back first, but then said with a cold face: "Today's matter, no one is allowed to chew the root of the tongue." Otherwise—"

The incense slaves hurriedly answered, and the two courtyard attendants lifted Wang Yuniang's body, and when they passed by An Lan, the white cloth covering Wang Yuniang's body suddenly slipped off. Revealing that white, swollen, dead face!

There seemed to be a yin wind coming, and An Lan only felt that her hair stood on end. The goldfinch screamed in fright and quickly turned his face.

The incense slaves who followed them also retreated in horror. Some of the younger ones even cried in fright.

……

Half an hour later. Lian Xi'er sent someone to inform them that the incense identification test in the afternoon would be carried out as usual.

At this time, An Lan had already told all the private feelings she had seen in the morning, including Guizhi and Shizhu, and after hearing this, the golden finch was so shocked that she didn't come back to her senses for a long time.

After the messenger left, the time was almost up, An Lan and Jinque got up to clean up, and then walked out of the incense house and walked to the incense tasting room in the front yard.

On the way, An Lan didn't speak, and the golden bird reminded her of her deceased relatives because she saw Wang Yuniang's face after her death, and her father was also so dead at that time, and the silent atmosphere was a little sad and depressing.

When he walked under a camphor tree, An Lan suddenly stopped, turned his head and said, "Do you think I'm quite cold-blooded?" ”

"What?" The golden finch was stunned for a moment, and then realized what An Lan was referring to, that is, she shook her head, "No, what does this have to do with you, besides, we don't have any friendship with her." ”

"Actually, I knew that Gui Zhi would definitely be bad for Wang Yuniang, I deliberately didn't remind Wang Yuniang, I even waited for Gui Zhi to do this." An Lan lowered her eyes, her long and thick eyelashes covered the love in her eyes, and her voice was calm and a little cold, as if she was saying it to the Golden Sparrow, and it seemed to be saying it to herself, "I am willing to gamble and lose, in the future, maybe I will end up like this, but I won't blame anyone......"

The Plantagenet looked at An Lan in a daze for a while, her eyes slowly turned red, and then she held An Lan's cold hand: "Don't think so, it's not your fault, really, it's not your fault, don't blame yourself so much!" ”

An Lan still stood silently with her face hanging down, the sun falling behind her, making her whole face hide in the shadows.

The golden finch grabbed the cold hand tightly, her voice began to choke, and she said while crying: "We can't take care of ourselves, how can we have the ability to save others, then Wang Yuniang died a very miserable death, but who told her to come in and fight for this position, and as soon as she came in, she provoked Guizhi's slut!" If it was, if it was somewhere else, she accidentally fell into the water, and we saw that she went down to save people without saying a word, but here, here, who saved whom...... Back then, my little sister and my father didn't provoke anyone, but they died so miserably, who cares! ”

An Lan raised her face at this time, her face was as calm as ever, and a light smile appeared at the corner of her mouth: "What are you crying about, what is there to cry about." ”

The Plantage looked at An Lan in a daze, and because An Lan raised her face, her whole face lit up. The afternoon sun shines through the branches and leaves overhead, and the floating spots of light fall on her eyelashes, faintly reflecting a little light, like undried tears.

Actually, she didn't cry, but the goldfinch knew she was crying, she just didn't cry.

Over the years, she has always been like this, even when she was almost defiled by the hospital attendants before, she never shed a single tear. So the goldfinch shed tears on her behalf, as if she had been wronged, and couldn't stop sobbing: "An Lan, we will definitely get better, we don't have to be afraid of being kicked out, we don't have to worry about being sick and have no money for medical treatment, we don't have to worry about not having food tomorrow, we don't have to worry about having no place to sleep at night, we don't have to worry that someone will plot against us, and we won't be beaten by our grandmothers again...... An Lan, we will be able to eat and dress warmly every day, and we can also let my mother-in-law enjoy her old age in peace, and those who have bullied us, we can make them look good! ”

After listening to her vague words, An Lan raised her hand to wipe away the tears on Jinfinch's face, and said with a smile: "I know, you don't have to worry, we won't die, we will live well!" ”

The goldfinch nodded, took out his handkerchief and wiped his face, and then asked a little embarrassedly, "Are your eyes swollen?" It's not good to let them see it for a while. ”

"I'll wash my face later." An Lan took out her handkerchief and handed it to her, and continued, "Don't worry, in my opinion, Ma Guixian is by no means easy now, and Bai Xiangshi doesn't even let go of the king's affairs, how can he let him go." (To be continued......)
