This little maid obviously had just entered the mansion, and when she encountered such a thing, she shouted in front of Sima Rui, who was a guest.

"Alright, I got it." Qin Yunuan showed an unexpected calmness, she bent her knees and saluted Sima Rui, "Yunuan is out of company." After that, she followed the little girl out of the yard and went straight to the backyard, although the pace was fast, but she was not panicked, such a scene, she had long expected that from the morning Tong'er monitoring to Tinghe on the crab roe bun began to play, the drama was constantly staged.

Bypassing a rockery, I saw that there were already a lot of people gathered near the back door, except for Qin Zhen, Qin Linfeng and Aunt Liu, who came before, Dou Qing'e and Qin Yunxiang also rushed over as soon as they received the news, although the banquet outside was nearing the end, but now only Aunt Chang was left alone to preside over the overall situation, and she would have dispersed long ago.

The originally dim backyard was temporarily lit with a lot of torches, and under the light of the fire, Qin Zhi's face showed an unapproachable gloom, and Qin Yuwan's little face in Aunt Liu's arms looked more and more red in the orange firelight, Qin Yuwan desperately hid her head into Aunt Liu's arms, as if she wanted to hide herself, along with the faintly visible five finger prints on her cheeks.

And Shangguan Rang, who has a big temper in the mouth of the little guy, is still half-drunk and allowed to be supported by others, in front of him is Shangguan Yuan, the left minister, and his body always seems to cover Shangguan Rang, who has caused trouble, intentionally or unintentionally, and talks to Qin Qian.

"Today is the dog lost his manners, and he has lightened the second girl Qin, and please rest assured that my Shangguan family is by no means unkind, and it will definitely not tarnish the reputation of the second girl of Qin, and now the dog and the second girl of Qin have also reached the age of talking about marriage, and within three months, the dowry of my Shangguan family will be coming." Shangguan Yuan tore off his old face and made a promise, the sister-in-law he carefully taught actually stole chickens and dogs in the backyard of other people's houses, and privately met with girls who had not left the cabinet, but fortunately, Qin Taiwei was also an interesting person, and agreed to go private, otherwise, it would also damage the reputation of his Qin family in vain.

Shangguan Rang didn't seem to accept his father's affection, and he probably smelled of alcohol: "Dad, what do you say?" Let me marry her? Shangguan Rang staggered at Qin Yunuan, his face full of disdain, "Just such a woman who desperately wants to climb to our Shangguan's house, grabbed a handful of them outside, and actually said that I despised her?" It was clearly her who invited me here, I remember, I clearly remember that a mother-in-law brought me here, and I have witnesses. ”

"Brute! Shut up! Shangguan Yuan's face became extremely ugly, "I asked you just now who the mother-in-law who led the way, and you said that you didn't see clearly in the dark light, and you were obviously drunk." After that, he ordered the little guy who came with him to carry Shangguan back.

Qin Zhen's face finally eased a little, but he looked at Qin Yunuan's eyes who were still cautious, and when he saw Qin Yunuan coming, he didn't say half a greeting, and asked directly and coldly: "Is there a maid in your yard, who is used to listen to the lotus?" ”

Qin Yunuan suddenly only felt two playful and slightly smug gazes stabbing straight at him, and when he looked up, he really saw Qin Linfeng's narrow eyes.

"That's right, Tinghe is indeed a second-class maid in the courtyard of Yunuan." Qin Yunuan took a step forward calmly, this move fell in the eyes of Dou Qing'e and Qin Yunxiang, and it became a joke, Dou Qing'e wanted to speak, but Qin Zhen's previous warning sounded in her mind - "I should have sent you to the temple a long time ago, but all my colleagues will come to today's banquet, you better remember for me, what to say and what not to say, if you want to make trouble again, I will let Yunxiang and Linfeng go to the temple to accompany you." ”

It doesn't matter if she leaves, but Yun Makeup and Linfeng are her treasures, how can she be willing to let her children suffer with her, not to mention, leaving one more person in the Qin family is one more hope.

Now, hope, too.

As soon as Qin Yunuan's words came out, the expressions of Aunt Liu and the others present immediately became hideous.

"Hmph, Tinghe is your maid, and now the maids in your own yard have died! DID YOU KNOW? Aunt Liu shouted at the top of her voice, as if she was trying to change Qin Qian's attention from Qin Yuwan, who had just lost face, to Qin Yunuan, the wronged leader, but this trick didn't seem to work, Qin Zhen was so meticulous, she naturally saw Aunt Liu's thoughts at a glance, just a glare, and Aunt Liu was shocked to the point that she couldn't say a word.

"Human life?" The horror and surprise on Qin Yunuan's face was real, she half-covered her mouth, and her fingertips seemed to be trembling uncontrollably, "How is it possible!" It's okay to listen to the lotus this morning, but then Yu Nuan was busy going to the banquet, and she didn't care where this girl went, why did she suddenly ......, father, is this news true? ”

Qin Zhen's gloomy nasal voice seemed to be squeezed out of his nasal cavity: "The corpse is behind the rockery in the backyard, do you think there will be a fake?" ”

Qin Yunuan was slightly stunned, and his gaze at the craggy rockery in front of him became more and more distant.

The truth of the matter was known in an instant.

Qin Linfeng thought that Qin Yunuan would really send Qin Baochuan out of the house through the back door, so he specially secretly sent someone to guard the back door, ready to wait for the rabbit, who expected that Qin Baochuan's carriage did not wait, but Qin Linfeng's people had a face-to-face with Qin Yuwan and Shangguan Rang who came to the private meeting, and also clashed with Shangguan Rang, who had the temper of a great young master.

In this way, Shangguan Rang's private meeting with Qin Yuwan became a trivial matter, and the matter of the dead became a major matter.

There is an unexplained dead person in the Taiwei Mansion, and the dead person is still a maid from his own mansion, if it spreads, the rumors are enough to blow this quaint and quiet house out of the waves.

In order to avoid bad luck, there are only a few experienced people on the rockery side of the inspection, and they will run over from time to time to report a few words, it seems that Qin Zhen did not report to the official, and if he wants to deal with it privately, he will deal with it privately, and he will investigate it inside the house, and the first target of the investigation is Qin Yunuan, who is standing in front of Qin Qin at this moment.

"This Tinghe is the maid of the third sister, and this suddenly died, so the third sister has nothing to say?" Qin Yun's makeup covered her handkerchief, and her eyes looked at the other side of the rockery evasively, she was still taboo about these, but this was an opportunity, an opportunity to step on Qin Yunuan to death and vent her anger for her mother.

Qin Yunuan also said bluntly and firmly: "Tinghe's death has nothing to do with me. ”

"How can the third sister have such confidence?" Qin Yunxiang shook his head disdainfully, "I heard that the third sister is nepotistic, and the Fuxi Courtyard only values a few old people who have served the younger sister for a long time, and the new maids are not welcomed, maybe, it is really an ignorant maid in the Fuxi Courtyard who bullied Tinghe with the connivance of the third sister, and then ......." ”

"Is Big Sister joking?" Qin Yunnuan looked at Qin Yunxiang coldly, "The family members who have just checked the cause of Tinghe's death have all come to say, Tinghe's neck has a few bruises, most of them were strangled to death, the finger prints are thick and powerful, most of them are a man, and the ones in my yard are all girls." ”

Qin Yunxiang's smile became more and more weird: "Isn't Mother Liao next to the third sister still has a son, remember that his name is Huang Dashi, and the relationship with the third sister is not bad." ”

Qin Yun's makeup took a very yin step, she transferred her original suspicion of the contradiction between the maid to Qin Yunuan in one sentence, if the maid is bad, Qin Yunuan is at most ineffective in discipline, but if it is counted on Liao's mother and Huang Dashi, anyone who uses their brains can think of it, except for Qin Yunuan in Fuxi Courtyard, who can make Liao's mother and Huang Dashi move?

Aunt Liu saw the situation and echoed: "Oh, in the end, this maid is in the courtyard of the third girl, the third girl's own person, the third girl is now gradually becoming famous in the capital, how does she want to deal with the next person, those of us who are aunts, there is really no way to say." ”

Qin Yunuan only felt that a chilly cool breeze was blowing on her face, and even Qin Zhen's gaze at her became a little deeper. Qin Zhen's most taboo is that his identity as the master of the house is challenged.

"But even if Aunt Liu and the eldest sister are right, you have forgotten a key place," Qin Yunuan tightened a string in his heart, "Motive, that is my motive for listening to the lotus, listening to the lotus has only been in my yard for a month, and I am also down-to-earth on weekdays, and nothing has gone wrong, why should I bother to deal with a subordinate, and I have to do it in the mansion, wouldn't it be a place to dirty the Taiwei Mansion." ”

Finally got to the point, Qin Yunxiang suddenly showed a triumphant smile, but Ying Huan Rao Man was compelling: "Third sister, but what if there is?" Shen Yue, you go and get the contract that I secretly gave to me when I heard the lotus come to my courtyard yesterday. ”

Just when everyone didn't know why, the maid Shen Yue immediately returned to Caizhi Courtyard, and when she came back, she was still holding a yellow-colored envelope in her hand, and her face was slightly bulging.

There is no signature on the envelope, but the slight cyan color in the veins of the envelope seems to tell people that the paper used to make the envelope is made of reeds unique to Jiangnan.

Qin Yun's eyebrows and eyes curved out of a good-looking arc, and Qianqian Su took the envelope with his hand: "This is the dead Tinghe secretly handed it to me yesterday, saying that it was found when the third sister's room was cleaning, she didn't know how serious the situation was, so she only let me make up my mind whether to hand it over to my mother, but unfortunately, before I could hand it over to my mother, the only witness died for no reason." ”

"Witnesses?" Qin Yunuan raised her eyebrows and smiled lightly, "The word big sister is really strange, it seems that Yunuan has done something unseemly." ”

"What do you say?" Qin Yunxiang's eyes slowly became longer when he looked at Qin Yunuan, "Third sister, think about it, if you admit it in advance, maybe, your father can still open the net." ”
