Yan Ran also felt strange at first, but she quickly understood, so she sneered: "It seems that this matter is indeed coming at me." ”

Someone poisoned Yan Yao and wanted to blame Yan Ran by the way, so he brought the poison into Qionghua Courtyard.

But because Yan Ran also bought the same medicinal herbs, this amount is too much.

Xian Luo's face was solemn: "Girl, it seems that our yard is still not clean enough." ”

Those who can bring poison into Qionghua Courtyard and store it in the warehouse must be the people in this courtyard, and outsiders can't do it.

Yan Ran sighed: "Yes, I didn't expect that someone would take advantage of the loopholes." But that's fine, it's better to be bitten now than to be stabbed later. ”

As soon as Qingxuan thought that there was a traitor in Qionghua Courtyard, she was indignant: "Girl, we must find out that traitor, what should we do now?" ”

Yan Ran thought for a moment and said, "The person who can poison Yan Yao must be the person close to her, and the person who can put the poison into the warehouse to frame me must also be the person next to me." But Yan Yao and I have always been on the same page, and no one can meet these two conditions at the same time. So I guess it's very likely that this incident was a concerted crime.

Qingxuan, Xianluo, keep an eye on the side of Jinghua Courtyard, Wen will definitely make a move to see if she can find out something. You will secretly investigate whether there are any close contacts or recent contacts between the descendants of Jinghua Academy and Qionghua Academy, even if there is only a very slight connection, don't let go of any clues. ”

Qingxuan and Xianluo listened carefully, wrote them down one by one, and took the order.

But before they could find out anything, a fire maid named Ping'er suddenly disappeared in Jinghua Courtyard, and the real murderer seemed to be revealed.

The Wen family violently led a group of servants to break into the Qionghua Courtyard and find Yan Ran's important person.

Yan Ran stopped Wen's and looked cold: "Mother, what do you mean?" ”

Wen stared at Yan Ran viciously, his smile twisted: "Yan Ran, you don't pretend to me!" Say, where did you hide Ping'er? If you know each other, hurry up and hand them over! Otherwise, if I find you, I won't spare you! ”

Yan Ran sneered lightly: "Does my mother think that I bought Ping'er to poison Yao'er and hide people after the incident?" I don't know if my mother said that, but is there any evidence? ”

Master Yan was not present, Wen had no scruples, and his attitude was very arrogant: "Evidence? Oh, what I'll find later, it'll be proof! ”

Wen said, ordering: "Search for me, search carefully, don't let go of any place!" ”

The servants in the palace listened to the words of Mrs. Wen, and even rushed into the courtyard.

There are not many people in Qionghua Courtyard, and most of them are maidservants, so they can't stop so many people.

Yan Ran was very angry, and her face sank like water.

Xuan Yue suddenly ran out of the kitchen with two kitchen knives, blocked in front of Yan Ran, and shouted, "I see which of you dares!" ”

Xian Luo also shouted: "Trespassing on the big girl's boudoir, you have to think about the consequences!" ”

Those subordinates looked at the two bright kitchen knives in Xuan Yue's hands and were jealous.

They dare to search the yard, but they never dare to move Yan Ran, but Yan Ran can move them!

If she takes that kitchen knife and slashes indiscriminately in a fit of anger, she will hurt someone, who can do anything to her as a big girl, she can only consider herself unlucky!

For a moment, everyone looked at each other and hesitated to move.

Wen's anger was not good, and he shouted at Yan Ran against the sky.

But because of the existence of the two kitchen knives, she didn't dare to come closer, so she could only scold her subordinates: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you go and search for me!" I am the mother of the Yan Mansion, you dare not listen to me, you are tired of living! ”

The subordinates looked at Wen on the left and Yan Ran on the right, and they were in a dilemma.

The two sides are deadlocked, and the atmosphere is tense.

At this moment, the housekeeper hurriedly found this place and shouted, "Madam, big girl, Ping'er has found ......"

Wen glared at Yan Ran fiercely, turned around and walked out, for fear that she would take the lead.

Yan Ran frowned and followed.

But when everyone came to the front yard, they saw a corpse.

The corpse had been soaked and swollen, and it was unrecognizable, and it could only be judged by the dress and the birthmarks on its body that this person was indeed Ping'er.

Wen was immediately frightened to the point that his face was bloodless, and his stomach was churning with the smell of the fishy corpse, and he almost vomited.

She screamed, retreated again and again, and was about to exit the yard before she shouted angrily: "What's the matter? ”

Yan Ran was also horrified, but she was not afraid, but stepped forward to check Ping'er's death.

Yan Ran covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief, squatted next to Ping'er's corpse, reached out to brush away the broken hair wrapped around her neck, and took a closer look.

Ping'er drowned, judging from the pinching marks on the back of her neck and the traces of her hands and feet being tied, she should have been pressed into the water and drowned, and then tied stones to her hands and feet and sunk in the pond.

Yan Ran was extremely angry, and her heart was cold.

What kind of person is it that destroys humanity so much, and after using Ping'er, he still uses such a cruel method to kill people and kill people?

After Wen learned that Ping'er was dead, he stomped his feet angrily, looked at Yan Ran with resentment in his eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "Yan Ran, count you ruthless!" ”

Ping'er is dead, that is, there is no proof of death, no matter how Wen suspects Yan Ran, but without evidence, she can't do anything.

Wen decided that Yan Ran killed Ping'er and left in a rage.

Yan Ran stood up and sighed heavily.

The housekeeper came over and said, "Big girl, Ping'er is a death deed, and she has no family, so her body can only be sent to Yizhuang and buried with other ownerless people." ”

Yan Ran said, "Uncle Yan, first carry Ping'er's body to Qionghua Courtyard." ”

"What?" The housekeeper looked at Yan Ran in disbelief, thinking that he had misheard: "Big girl, you are really ......"

Yan Ran didn't explain, only said, "Do as I tell you." ”

The housekeeper couldn't find out Yan Ran's intentions, so he could only send Ping'er's body to Qionghua Courtyard in a daze.

When Qingxuan saw the dead man for the first time, she couldn't help but be afraid, and asked with a pretty face, "Girl, what are you going to do?" ”

Yan Ran didn't answer, but only ordered: "When you go back later, you will carefully observe everyone's expression when they see Ping'er's corpse, find out the person with a different color, and bring it to me." ”

Ping'er's body was placed in the courtyard of Qionghua Courtyard, and everyone was frightened and avoided it, and even the timid ones didn't even dare to go out of the door.

Yan Ran was not affected at all, sitting in the room and sipping tea, looking indifferent.

Slim soon brought three maidservants.

The three of them knelt down in the hall, and Xian Luo walked to Yan Ran's side and whispered in her ear: "Girl, these people are all different. Chun'er saw that the corpse's face was not different, and she was very calm, but it was suspicious; Qing'er looked sad, and she should have some friendship with Ping'er; Huan'er pretended to be calm and disguised her nervousness, which was also very strange. ”

Yan Ran nodded, lowered her eyes to look at the three of them, and asked them one by one.

Chun'er said: "Girl, the slave's father is a coffin maker in the township, and the slave and maid are used to seeing dead people, so they have no fear of dead bodies." ”

Qing'er seemed to be weeping, and her voice was choked: "The slave maid and Ping'er are fellow villagers, but now I see her miserable death, and I am sad from it." ”

Huan'er said calmly: "The slave maid used to be on duty with Ping'er in the Jinghua Courtyard, but she was not familiar with her. ”

The answers of these people are flawless and have little reference value.

Yan Ran was silent, drank tea again, and seemed to fall into deep thought.

Just when there was silence in the room, Yan Ran suddenly asked, "You killed the person?" ”

"It's not me!"

Huan'er immediately denied it, and the other two glanced at her strangely.

Huan'er's face turned pale suddenly, and she realized that she had said the wrong thing.

The three of them all lowered their heads, not knowing who Yan Ran was asking, but Huan'er denied it so eagerly, which showed that he was weak-hearted.

Yan Ran said: "You two go down, Huan'er stays." ”

Huan'er glanced up at Yan Ran, her eyes were full of panic, and she hurriedly lay down again, and said in a panic: "Girl, the slave didn't kill anyone, and the slave didn't know anything!" ”

Yan Ran didn't care what she said, she only asked, "You didn't kill the person, so who killed it?" ”

Huan'er shook her head again and again, and kept repeating: "The slave doesn't know anything!" ”

Yan Ran motioned for Xian Luo to throw Xianggu in front of Huan'er, and said coldly, "You really don't know anything?" ”

Huan'er was so frightened that her body flickered, and her eyes dodged: "Girl, this is not done by a slave!" ”

Yan Ran snorted coldly: "Did I say what you did?" ”

Huan'er lost her words one after another, knowing that she couldn't hide it, so she had to give up lying.

Yan Ran said coldly: "Huan'er, you have seen the fate of Yun Sleeve, you should know that I have to be loyal." Tell me everything you know, and I'll find a good place for you. ”

Huan'er knew that Yan Ran would do what she said, and she would definitely not be able to stay in Yan's mansion, so she immediately cried: "Girl, the slave really didn't mean it!" The slave maid used to be on duty with Ping'er in the Jinghua Courtyard and had received her favor. A few days ago, she suddenly found the slave maid and asked the slave maid to secretly put this medicinal herb into Qionghua Courtyard. The slave maid thought, you also like to study medicinal herbs on weekdays, so she put it in the warehouse. The slave really didn't know that this thing was poison, and she didn't know that Ping'er had poisoned the second girl! ”

Yan Ran looked at Huan'er with tears in her eyes, and felt pity.

Last time, the Wen family used the excuse that Mrs. Yan had lost her hand to search the hospital, and it was this ring that secretly ran out to report to Yan Ran.

It can be seen that she is a clever person, how can she not detect Ping'er's ulterior motives?

Since she chose to betray Yan Ran in order to repay her kindness, she should be prepared to bear all the consequences.

Yan Ran said: "Take her down, Ming'er will send her to Zhuangzi to work." ”

Although the work in Zhuangzi is a little tiring, it is a stable errand, which is much better than being sold and meeting bad people.

Huan'er understood Yan Ran's intentions, and felt remorseful in her heart, so she knelt on the ground and kowtowed a few times.

As soon as Yan Ran got up, Qingxuan hurriedly grabbed her and said uneasily: "Girl, where are you going?" ”

The person who conspired with Ping'er was Huan'er, but she didn't know anything, so the clue was broken.

Yan Ran wanted to see Ping'er's body again, hoping to find some new clues.

But seeing Qingxuan's frightened appearance, Yan Ran couldn't help but snicker, and used the excuse to break her away: "You go to find Uncle Yan and ask him to bring someone over to collect the body." ”

Qingxuan suddenly felt relaxed in her heart, and nodded again and again: "Okay, slave and maid will go!" ”

After Qingxuan left, Yan Ran, accompanied by Xianluo, went to the courtyard and examined Ping'er's body again.

This time, she found an anomaly: "It's ......"
