Chapter 605: Inner Ghost
The sixth prince never came back to his senses, his brain was buzzing, all of them were Xin Muyuan's chatter, until he came out of Qingsu City, he suddenly realized, took off his shoes and threw them at the coachman's head, and scolded: "You brainless waste!" Don't you even know who your master is! Don't listen to what you should listen to, listen to what you shouldn't listen to, I like to listen to others so much, now I'll go to Xin Muyuan for this king immediately! ”
The coachman was hit with a shoe in his head, and he endured the pain and did not dare to say anything, and continued to hurry.
The sixth prince sat in the sedan chair angrily, and panicked with hatred: "Come on, keep an eye on the ten mansions for me!" Once you find out that Xin Muyuan is out of Qingsu City, you will be killed! ”
Ten houses.
Xin Muyuan sent the six princes away, his face suddenly fell, and he turned back to the courtyard and ordered coldly: "Go, call all the people in the house to the flower hall of the second courtyard!" ”
After the order, Xin Muyuan took the lead in going to the flower hall to wait. In a short time, the ten houses were up and down, from the master to the fire maid.
Qinglian had an early game today, got up early, took a nap after coming back, and was woken up after a while to say that the owner of the house was going to ask them for questioning, and when she was called over, her face was still sleepy, and she couldn't help yawning in front of Xin Muyuan.
Xin Muyuan sat in the main seat with a straight face, shaking the tea cup for a while, and the tea lid hit the cup with a crisp sound.
The subordinates lowered their heads, not daring to speculate, let alone curious.
After the housekeeper was helped over, Xin Muyuan glanced at everyone and asked, "Are you all here?" ”
The housekeeper clenched his fists and replied: "Yes, from the host to the guests to the lowest maid in the house, all are here." ”
Xin Muyuan bowed his head and said: "Go and get the roster to correspond one by one, and all those who have not arrived and replaced them will be expelled from the ten houses." ”
"Yes." The housekeeper seemed to have known that Xin Muyuan would do this, and had already prepared the roster when he came.
It was only at this time that the people in the Ten Mansions began to panic, understanding that Xin Muyuan was afraid that he was going to lose his temper this time, his face was slightly pale, his palms were clenched, and his head hung lower, for fear that if he didn't pay attention, he would cause Xin Muyuan's second anger.
"Today, the sixth prince is here." Xin Muyuan's words were light, but Xie Zhan and Qinglian's hearts were shocked.
Especially Qinglian, her face turned blue in an instant, and her sleepiness dissipated instantly.
My heart was pounding, my throat was dry, and I couldn't even breathe.
He raised his eyes and secretly looked at Xin Muyuan, who had no expression on his face, and there was luck in his heart, and said: There should be nothing to do, the sixth prince is as she said, in the imperial capital, especially in the Lishi Mansion, there is no way to take her.
Xie Zhan was also nervous, his eyes were fixed on Xin Muyuan, and his palms were so nervous that he was sweating.
He really wanted to ask the sixth prince if he had come to embarrass her, but there were too many people here, and he couldn't speak.
Xin Muyuan calmly swept over the crowd, remembered the expressions on their faces one by one, and slowly spoke: "Give you a stick of incense, and if you take the initiative to admit the identity of the person who broke the secret, you can deal with it lightly, if I find out......"
Xin Muyuan didn't say it explicitly, just let out a low laugh.
She clapped her hands, and the butler immediately brought the incense burner.
The incense of the timekeeping has been lit, and every cigarette rolled up will roll up people's hearts.
Everyone looked at each other, not daring to admit it. Someone tried to ask what a secret buster was, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he saw Xin Muyuan's cold gaze sweeping over, and he hurriedly closed his mouth.
But at the same time, he was also relieved in his heart, understanding that Xin Muyuan probably already had his own guess in his heart, and stood honestly with his head down. Reading.com
The eerie silence of time.
Xin Muyuan was not in a hurry, holding the ring ruler in his hand, staying quietly in the chair, his eyes only stayed on the wooden ring ruler in his hand.
Qinglian couldn't stand it at first, and said, "A few days ago, I saw Zhan Gongzi go out, will it have anything to do with this?" ”
Xin Muyuan didn't look up, and asked lazily, "When?" ”
Seeing that Xin Muyuan had no suspicions, Qinglian thought that she had found a way to get rid of the crime, and hurriedly said, "It was a week and a half ago!" ”
"When?"
"The Fifth of July!"
Xin Muyuan lifted his eyes, and his expression that seemed to be smiling made Qinglian's heart chuckle, and said, "I remember it quite clearly." She waved her hand, "Here's someone, take him down." Ten houses will not leave traitors, and they will be brought to deal with at a later date. ”
Qinglian was dumbfounded, Mo Zhu was also stunned, and before Qinglian could speak, Mo Zhu knelt down with a "poof" and cried: "Boss, Qinglian and I are both loyal to you!" And how could he betray you? There must be some misunderstanding in the middle, please be aware of it! ”
As he spoke, his head slammed on the ground and begged, "Please, check it again!" ”
Qinglian still didn't understand why so many people Xin Muyuan decided that the informant was him, and stood stunned and at a loss.
Xin Muyuan looked at Mo Zhu with a smile, her red lips curled, and she said slowly: "Mo Zhu, you are panicking." ”
"What?"
"You seem to know something, tell me, I spared him."
This time, the face of the change of ink bamboo turned pale.
He hesitated for a moment, shook his head violently, and said in a firm tone, "I don't know anything. ”
Xin Muyuan tilted his head slightly and said, "It seems that you choose to have a hard mouth." ”
She waved her hand, and immediately a gardener stepped forward to press Qinglian down.
Knowing this, Qinglian suddenly came back to her senses, looked at Xin Muyuan angrily, and said, "I can understand that you want to find someone to speak up for Zhan Gongzi, but I don't understand, why me?" ”
Xin Muyuan suddenly laughed and said, "You are asking this strangely, why should you ask, it's not you, but me." Qinglian, you are really smart, you already know before I said what secrets I have accused? ”
Qinglian sneered and said, "You said in the previous sentence that the sixth prince is here, and in the second sentence, you asked the informer, what is the answer that can be guessed so easily?" ”
Xin Muyuan nodded and said, "What you said makes sense, it seems that I blame you wrong." Speaking of which, Qinglian, your memory seems to be good, by the way, you can help me think about it, when did the cook lady we met last week who said that she was going to take five days off invite, why hasn't she come back today? ”
Qinglian was stunned for a moment.
When they went out before, they did run into the cook, and the cook did ask Xin Muyuan for leave, but when it was, he found that he really couldn't remember.
"Hehe," Xin Muyuan shook his head and said, "The cook took leave on July 12. Today is only the seventeenth, today is the last day, of course you haven't come back yet, why can't you remember? On the contrary, my man poked his head out of the door on July 5, and you accidentally bumped into it and remembered it, and I can't accept this reason. ”
