Chapter 304: The interrogation is cold
interrogated his daughter in front of his son-in-law, Leng Xiang felt that it was a bit difficult.
He turned his face and asked straight to the point: "What did the fourth aunt do in your yard on the day of the accident?" Be honest and don't lie. ”
Leng Qinglang sighed in his heart, and suddenly became a little flustered: "I haven't seen you for a long time, and I talked about it for a while." ”
Leng Xiang's face suddenly sank: "Aunt Xue has already inquired clearly here, do you still want to quibble?" The woman in Xunqinglou pretended to be someone else and defrauded the fourth aunt of her money, why? ”
Leng Qinglang didn't expect that Aunt Xue was not simple, and such a little thing was dug into her and churned out.
Now that the girl has been found, there is nothing to hide. She had already prepared her words.
"The person I am looking for is pretending to be the daughter of the fourth aunt before entering the Prime Minister's Mansion. She said that she wanted to see her, but I couldn't bear to refuse a matter in my heart, so I sent someone to pretend. Who knew that she knew that I was lying to her, so she came to me aggressively to theorize, and after a few noisy sentences, she left. ”
Leng also knows what happened to the fourth aunt before her death, and Aunt Xue has confessed to him the reason for the quarrel between the two.
"Do you know the whereabouts of the fourth aunt's daughter?"
"Her daughter died when she was born. My aunt didn't want her to be sad, so she lied to her and said that she gave it to a farmer for adoption. ”
The excuse was perfect.
Aunt Xue saw that the things she had worked so hard to inquire about were turned out by her, and she easily perfunctory the past, so she was naturally unwilling.
"That's a nice thing to say, it's not that you have joined forces to defraud the fourth aunt of her money."
"The fourth aunt is worried that her daughter is not doing well, so she insists on giving away some yellow and white things to accompany her, and I am just pushing the boat along the river."
Leng Qinghuan didn't say a word from beginning to end, listened to her defense, and asked meaningfully: "That's all?" ”
Leng Qinglang was straightforward: "You don't want to blame my head for the death of the fourth aunt, right?" My aunt is kind to her, all for her good, and she is too late to thank us, so how can she have anything to do with us? ”
Leng Qinghuan smiled slightly: "In that case, why does she hate you so much that she wants to put you to death?" ”
"Nonsense!"
"And where did the bruise on your neck come from? It can't be a bump, right? ”
Leng Qinglang has fair skin, and the slightest blemish is very eye-catching. She has been covering it tightly for the past two days, who expected Leng Qinghuan's sharp eyes to see it at a glance.
She didn't argue meaninglessly: "The fourth aunt suddenly heard that her daughter was a woman from the Qinglou, and she had a misunderstanding in her heart, and she was excited for a while, and forced me to ask the truth, so she started a little harder." ”
Leng Qinghuan was unhurried, and her tone was gentle: "As we all know, the fourth aunt has a good temper and a soft temperament, and she has always bowed her head to Aunt Jin and your sister and brother, and obeyed her words. Unless, there is a bitter hatred, she should not be able to make such a ruthless move. ”
Leng Qinglang suddenly became anxious: "Leng Qinghuan, what do you mean by this?" Why the fourth aunt can't think of it, everyone knows it. I know you're good friends with Aunt Xue, and you can't wait to get rid of me. But such a far-fetched attempt to impose the death of the fourth aunt on me is too despicable.
Father, you can see today how your daughter was angry with her in the palace and was harmed by her to such a situation. You're going to call the shots for your daughter. ”
Leng Xiang coughed lightly: "Perhaps, the fourth aunt was disheartened for a while because she suddenly heard the bad news of her daughter's death." But it has nothing to do with Qinglang. This matter, Lord Wang, you see, there is no need to continue to pursue it, right? ”
Murong Qi slowly put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Leng Qinglang calmly.
"The death of the fourth aunt is not directly related to you, what about Zhiqiu?"
Leng Qinglang's body was shocked, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and he quickly hid it: "What can Zhiqiu's death have to do with me?" I have been away from the palace for a long time, and I have not met Zhiqiu, and I was not in the prime minister's mansion at that time. ”
"That's why no one suspected you at the time. It wasn't until just now, Aunt Xue revealed the festival between you and the fourth aunt, that this king suddenly realized. ”
Leng Qinglang looked at Murong Qi sadly: "Qinglang really doesn't understand, what does the prince mean?" What does Zhiqiu's death have to do with the fourth aunt? ”
"Zhiqiu was killed by the fourth aunt and pushed into the lake. She used to be a martial artist in the opera troupe, and she had a little skill, so she covered her mouth and nose with a wet handkerchief from behind her while Zhiqiu was not paying attention.
She wasn't as tall as Zhiqiu, so when she started, her sleeves slipped down. Zhiqiu couldn't breathe and called for help, and struggled desperately, scratching her arm. The four existing scratches on the fourth aunt's arm are proof. ”
"Now that the fourth aunt is dead, whatever you say is what you say. But what if she kills Zhiqiu? What does it have to do with me? ”
"The fourth aunt has no grievances with Zhiqiu, but she suddenly did such a poisonous hand to her, just because you used her daughter as a threat to force her to act according to your orders.
And when she killed Zhiqiu, she asked you to see her daughter, and you had to spend money to hire Linlang Pavilion's sister to perfunctory her.
When she learns that she has been deceived, she aggressively asks you about her daughter's whereabouts. You deliberately provoked her with the news of her daughter's death, causing her to commit suicide. ”
Leng Qinglang grinned far-fetchedly.
"Lord Wang, who is listening to nonsense in front of you? Zhiqiu is my girl, why should I kill her, and why bother so much? ”
"The specific reason, then you have to ask yourself."
Murong Qi's words shocked everyone present, except for Leng Qinghuan.
Murong Qi said that she was pregnant, so it was not suitable for overwork and exhaustion, so she just left this matter to him to do, and she didn't have to worry about it anymore.
She didn't take it to heart, but she didn't expect Murong Qi to take it to heart.
Today, since he took this opportunity to make everything clear in front of Leng Xiang, he will definitely not be untargeted, and he must have a certain amount of evidence in his hand.
Leng Qinglang also panicked, because Murong Qi's guess was already approaching the truth. She was a little scared, she didn't know how much Murong Qi knew? Is it prepared today?
She naturally couldn't admit it, and denied it: "Qinglang has been cultivating himself in Zhuangzi these days, staying at home, and he doesn't know anything about the affairs in the palace and the prime minister's mansion." Not to mention killing Zhiqiu for no reason. She was my companion who grew up with me, more like a sister. The prince doesn't know whose slander he has listened to, so slandering Qinglang, does she have any credentials? ”
This refers to Sang scolding Huai, pointing directly at Leng Qinghuan.
Leng Qinghuan did not argue, but also leisurely picked up the tea cup on the side, took a sip, and moistened his throat.
The expression on Murong Qi's face was extremely flat, he couldn't see any emotion, and it was even more unfathomable and unpredictable, was he confident, or was he playing tricks?
