The morning light broke through the clouds, and the people in the princess's mansion got up one after another, ready to work.

Since Qingran was killed by the cane, almost no one has come to Xiyuan, and only the maid who originally served Qingran and a mother-in-law who sprinkled and swept were left.

Qingran originally had two maids waiting by his side, one was Lingxi, and the other was Xiaolan.

Xiaolan Lao Zi Niang is a subordinate in the princess's mansion, she is a child of the family, after the accident, she tried to let her Lao Zi Niang go to see if she could be transferred out of Xiyuan.

So Xiaolan went out early in the morning, and when she came back, it was already past the hour, and they had already gotten up to work at this time, but now that Qingran was dead, they were not reassigned, so they could only stay in the yard honestly and do the chores of sprinkling and sweeping.

In the morning, Xiaolan went to find a way to dredge up the relationship, but it didn't go so well, she returned to the house and saw that Lingxi was still lying on the bed and was a little unhappy.

"Oh, I really think I'm the master, when is this still lying on the bed, you cheap girl still don't get me up...... Yes! ”

Xiaolan lifted the quilt on Lingxi's body in the past, but the next moment she was so frightened that she screamed.

Lingxi was lying on his back on the bed, bleeding from seven holes, his body was cold, and he had long lost his breath.

The death of a maid next to a concubine will not cause any splash in the princess's mansion, and the grandmother in charge also said that Lingxi is a person next to Qingran, this person is afraid that Lan Qinzhu will secretly solve it, even if the matter is stabbed in front of the eldest princess, the eldest princess will definitely stand on Lan Qinzhu's side, so the housekeeper Mama directly concealed the matter and let people carry Lingxi to the mass grave.

……

Xiao Yi was sent to Lin Mumu's private house to recuperate, Lin Mumu went to see his injuries, and they were not as light as Xiao A said, in addition to some skin injuries on Xiao Yi's body, he also suffered a lot of internal injuries Even if he didn't kill him immediately, if he wasn't treated well, his body was likely to deteriorate.

The reason why she wanted to investigate the people behind Lingxi was also because she found the same mark on Lingxi's chest as Mei Ying, she guessed that they were probably from the same organization, and from the two of them, she gradually discovered the terrible nature of this organization, she suspected that the people in this organization were likely to have slowly infiltrated the mansions of various families and officials in Xijing, what a terrible thing.

She wanted to continue to investigate, but Xiao Yi's experience also made her vigilant, she had to face a reality, compared to the strength that the other party did not show at all, she was really too small.

So she planned to put this matter on hold, she didn't want the lives of the people around her to be threatened again.

After going to see Xiao Yi, Lin Mumu went to the princess's mansion again, but the people from the princess's mansion stopped her.

Lin Mumu couldn't break in and could only leave.

Before arriving at the princess's mansion, Xiao Jia had already told her that Lingxi was dead, and that person was decisive enough to do things, and he would not be merciful to those who betrayed him.

When Lin Mumu returned to the mansion, he saw a carriage parked outside the mansion gate.

"Ning Yuan, go and see which mansion it is." After she was dismissed, there were still many hot people in the house who asked her to go for treatment, but since Emperor Showa ordered her to go to Heqin, no one came to the door, and this carriage appeared here at this time, which had to make Lin Mumu strange.

When Ning Yuan went to check, Lin Mumu also got off the carriage.

"Miss, it's from the Zhenguo Mansion."

"From the Zhenguo Mansion?"

"Yes."

She and the Zhenguo Mansion had nothing to do with each other except for treating Mrs. Xie's illness, and at this time, the Zhenguo Mansion came to the door, could it be that Mrs. Xie's body had something wrong again?

In the midst of doubts, the porter had already gone in to spread the word, and soon the people from the Zhenguo Mansion came out.

"See the lord of the county."

Lin Mumu is no stranger to the person who came, she was a maid waiting in front of Mrs. Xie.

"Don't be polite, come to me today, is the old lady unwell or ......"

"Yes, the old lady is a little unwell, and I want to ask the county lord to come over and have a look."

Lin Mumu didn't think about it. "Okay, let's go now."

"Yes."

An hour later, Lin Mumu and the others arrived at the Zhenguo Mansion, and the maid directly led Lin Mumu to Mrs. Xie's courtyard.

As soon as he walked into the courtyard, Lin Mumu felt that the atmosphere inside was not quite right.

Although the people in the courtyard are doing their own duties, they feel that the atmosphere is different, and they are much more cautious than usual.

"The old lady said that after the county lord came, she would go directly into the house, and there was no need to report it again." The maid pushed the door open.

Lin Mumu nodded and walked in.

As soon as she entered the house, Lin Mumu saw Mrs. Xie sitting on the main seat, and there was no one around her, and then she looked at Mrs. Xie's eyes that were full of spirit as if she was sick and unwell, and then contacted the abnormality of the yard, she knew that she was by no means simply here to treat her illness today.

Seeing Lin Mumu walk in, Old Madam Xie stood up from her chair. "The old body has asked for peace to the lord of the county."

Lin Mumu, the county lord, has no benefit, but it is just that the reputation of the family is not so ugly, and Lin Mumu really can't stand the gift of Mrs. Xie.

So she turned sideways slightly to avoid it.

"Old lady, this is tormenting me, get up quickly." 56

Old Madam Xie was blessed but did not move. "Please let the county lord let Xinru go."

Lin Mumu frowned, she thought that the entanglement between her and Xie Xinru didn't know about it.

"What does the old lady mean by that?"

Old Madam Xie raised her head and looked at her. "County Lord, Xinru is blind in one eye, can't you let her go?"

At this point, Lin Mumu didn't want to hide it, she was very curious about how Old Madam Xie knew that she had made Xie Xinru look like that.

"Xie Xinru told the old lady about this?"

Old Madam Xie shook her head. "It's my people who overheard it."

Eavesdrop? Just Xie Xinru, that madman, will let people overhear her? She saw that this was deliberate.

"Then I don't know what Old Madam Xie overheard?"

Old Madam Xie glanced at Lin Mumu.

"County Lord, you and the royal king are uncles and nephews after all, it is impossible in this life, please take a look at the county lord, there are many good sons and daughters in this world......"

"So the old lady thinks that I did it to Xie Xinru because of the royal king?" She knew that Xie Xinru deliberately let Old Madam Xie's people hear it.

Old Madam Xie looked at her, and her eyes were like saying again, didn't she?

"Of course not."

Old Madam Xie frowned. "Why?"

"I don't know how much Old Madam Xie knows about her granddaughter, and do you know how many lives she has on her hands?" Although she didn't inquire about Xie Xinru's previous affairs in detail, it can be seen from her unhesitating attack on Shuangshuang that she is a ruthless person who does not take human life seriously.

Lin Mumu's words made Mrs. Xie's face sink down, Xie Xinru and Xie Zhenyuan have been away for many years, she really doesn't know her, but thinking of Xie Xinru's pure smile, she feels that Lin Mumu said these words too much.

"I know that this child is a little delicate, but I don't believe you that she kills people."

"Yes, who would believe that their loved ones are a murderer without blinking, but I want to tell the old lady, Xie Xinru killed my maid, you don't have to excuse your granddaughter, my maid didn't have any offense against her, and she still killed her, I, Lin Mumu, just blinded one of her eyes now, if I have a chance, I will definitely kill her!" Lin Mumu didn't hide his thoughts of wanting to kill Xie Xinru.

Old Madam Xie didn't have much contact with Lin Mumu, but she also knew a little about her temperament, otherwise she wouldn't have come to the door today to talk about Xie Xinru.

Old Madam Xie believed that if Lin Mumu was really determined to kill Xie Xinru, she would definitely have that ability.

"Please also ask the county lord to raise his noble hand and let Xinru go." Mrs. Xie lifted the hem of her clothes and knelt down in front of Lin Mumu.

Lin Mumu was stunned, Mrs. Xie was such a proud person, and she knelt down for Xie Xinru.

But let her let Xie Xinru go like this, she was unwilling!

"If the county lord lets Xinru go, the old body can ensure that the county lord can reach Xichu safely."

Lin Mumu raised her eyebrows slightly. "What does the old lady mean by that?"

Old Madam Xie slowly raised her head and looked at her. "County Lord, why Xinru returned to Beijing this time, the county lord should be clear in his heart."

Lin Mumu couldn't be clearer, the queen wanted to use Xie Xinru to pull Zhao Xuanling into her camp, and now that Xie Xinru has become like this, this matter is naturally impossible.

"The queen's character is old and understandable, her plan is empty, and she must have accumulated a sigh of relief, the county lord went to Xichu and his relatives, I am afraid that the queen's credit is indispensable, according to the old body's understanding of the queen, the county lord is afraid that there will be trouble on the way to the relatives, if the county lord promises the old body to let Xinru go, the old body can ensure that the county lord is safe before he arrives in Xichu."

Old Madam Xie said again: "The county lord is willing to fight for a maid, it can be seen that he is a person who values love and righteousness, then the old man asked the county lord, is there no one around the county lord now?" ”

Lin Mumu looked at Old Madam Xie and didn't speak.

Old Madam Xie smiled. "The county lord is a smart person, he can understand the words of the old body, the county lord is also the benefactor of the old body, if it weren't for the unfilial descendants, the old body would never be able to do such a thing, so please let the county lord let her go, although the eyes are not worth the life, but she also paid the price, right?"

Lin Mumu's face sank, of course she understood what Old Madam Xie meant.

This is threatening her and their safety!

"Don't be angry, the county lord won't do that until he has to."

Lin Mumu hooked the corners of her lips sarcastically. "Am I the story of the farmer and the snake?"

Old Madam Xie looked at her with some confusion, not knowing what kind of story this was.

Lin Mumu didn't plan to explain either.

Old Madam Xie saw that Lin Mumu was silent, so she took out a purse from her body and opened it, and inside was a gold medal engraved with an eagle's head.

"As long as the county lord promises the old body to let Xinru go, the old body will give this eagle card to the county lord."

"Eagle?"
