"Zhou Xiaoyu was killed by you?" Listening to Cui's mother's words, Xiao Shengzi suddenly became angry.

"No, no, no, we didn't kill it, we just ......" Cui's mother tried to defend herself, but when those words of defense came to her mouth, she swallowed them back stiffly: "Poor master, we didn't know that they were the ones who wanted to kill Miss, if we knew, we wouldn't ...... It's all our fault. ”

"What the hell is going on?" Chang Tai asked.

"About a year ago, at that time, someone came to my family. I wasn't there, and I don't know very well what they said. I only know that my family Cui Da told me that someone doesn't want Miss to be with Master Jingtan. I said if we weren't together, we wouldn't be together. Although Master Jingtan said that he was good-looking and human, he didn't say anything to my young lady, but he was a monk in the end. This monk, how can he say that he is still vulgar, and he will marry if he says that he will marry. Even if the master of the pure altar is still vulgar, he is just a young man with nothing, and my old lady may not be willing to let the young lady be with him. Seeing that my young lady has reached the age of kissing, it is not a way to stay with the master of the pure altar like this. I was still thinking that it would be good if someone stopped me, and when the young lady figured it out, I would find a single wishful husband, and this matter would be over. ”

"What did Cui Da say at that time?"

He didn't say anything. My family Cui Da is an honest man, and since the day I married him, he has not said much. Many things are also stuffed in my heart and not told to outsiders. When I told him about our young lady, he just snorted sullenly, and I really thought it was all over. ”

Cui's mother sighed.

"Half a year ago, Cui Da suddenly mentioned this matter again, and also talked about things related to the master of the pure altar by the way. Cui Da said that he also heard these things from other places, saying that the master of the Jingtan was actually the widow of the former prince Li Shi, and he was raised in the temple in order to protect him. He also heard that now the former ministers of the Li family want to support the Jingtan master and make him the crown prince or even the emperor. I was frightened and quickly covered Cui Da's mouth. How can this be taken seriously?

I have seen Master Pure Altar, and I have seen him since he was a child. He was born handsome, but he didn't look any different from ordinary people all over his body. This monk is the prince and the emperor, isn't this just like talking. If others hear this, they may not know what they will think of us.

Cui Da seemed to admit it, he asked me to help persuade our young lady, saying that this royal matter was the most troublesome, saying that we were just ordinary people and couldn't get involved in these things. He also said that if the master of the pure altar really became the prince and the emperor, it would not be a good thing for our young lady. Since ancient times, the one who became the emperor was not the three palaces and six courts, not only watching the newcomers laugh and not hearing the old people crying. If he can't be the prince and the emperor, I'm afraid that the end will be even more miserable than the former prince.

I am a woman, and I was frightened by Cui Da's words. But privately, I didn't dare to tell Miss these words. First, this is unfounded, just a rumor that Cui Da listened to outside. Second, if Miss Ruo really likes the master of the pure altar, telling her these words may bring her other troubles.

I persuaded Cui Da at the time, let's not worry about the affairs of this master. Do our own thing, and manage our own people. Cui Da looked at me in a daze, and didn't speak for a long time. I thought that maybe at that time, he had already been asked to help with it. ”

"What was the situation on the day Zhou Xiaoyu was killed?"

"When I got up early in the morning, Cui Da told me that those people asked him to take Miss out, saying that they were persuading Miss not to stay with Master Jingtan anymore, and that Master Jingtan would never marry Miss again. After the New Year, the young lady will be eighteen. This eighteen-year-old girl, if she doesn't talk about her relatives anymore, she will become an old girl who is talked about. The young lady has been waiting for the master of the pure altar for so long, even if she is willing to wait any longer, the master and the lady will never allow it.

I asked him, would Miss be in danger? Do you want to tell the lord and the lady about this in advance? Cui Da said no, those people looked like monks and scared Miss. He also said that if what we did was known to the lord and his wife, the family would not want to stay any longer this week.

Now the world is peaceful, but we are all this age, and we have been staying in the Zhou family all these years. Eating, drinking, and dressing, although it can't be said to be good, but it's not bad, at least the old lady didn't let us go hungry, and let my children learn skills with the young master, we are grateful in our hearts. ”

"Grateful and hurt your own lady?" Xiao Shengzi snorted coldly.

"We really can't help it. Cui Da is sick and needs to spend a lot of money to see it, no matter how good the old lady is to us, no matter how good the young lady is to us, it is impossible to take out the money. We've almost spent all our savings, and there's really no other way. Besides, we really didn't expect that they would kill them.

That morning, Cui Da, as usual, sent the young lady out first, followed by the young lady. I've been worrying about it, and I'm afraid that something will happen. Later, Cui Da came back, and the whole person was depressed. I asked him what was wrong, and he was silent for a long time, and he asked in a hurry, and then he said: Miss is gone, we killed Miss to death. I was so frightened that my legs went limp. Later, the house began to look for the young lady, and we didn't dare to say anything. ”

"Go on." Chang Tai urged.

Later, the young lady was found and said that she had committed suicide, but no one in the house suspected it. The matter between the young lady and the master of the pure altar, everyone in the house knows. They all thought that the young lady couldn't wait, and they were sad and desperate to get this way. But they didn't think that if the young lady really didn't want to live, wouldn't it be better to hang herself in her own house? But I dare not say these words, and I can't say them. Because only Cui Da and I know that Miss did not commit suicide, but was murdered.

After Miss's death, Cui Da's illness became more and more serious, he felt ashamed of Miss, and refused to take money to buy medicine to eat, so he went out to drink all day long. I knew that he was bitter in his heart, and I knew that he was uncomfortable, so I didn't stop him. Before the accident, he told me that he might not survive. Those people will not let him go. He said that if he died, he would also blame himself, and he couldn't complain about others, and said that let me live well and rot the young lady's affairs in my stomach, and no one should say anything. ”

"You're lying." Just when Cui's mother was stating these things, Xing Ruyi quietly turned on the ghost and saw Cui Da pointing at Cui's mother all the time.

"Where did the girl's beating come from? What I said is true, if you don't believe it, you can check it. I swear, those murderers must be from the monastery. ”

"When I say you are lying, I don't mean that you lied about Miss Zhou's tragic death, but that you lied about the death of your husband Cui Da. A man who has long been determined to sell his lord for glory, oh no, in your words, a traitor to cure the disease. There will definitely be entanglements in this process, but since Cui Da made up his mind to take Miss Zhou to the agreed place, he was already prepared for the worst. How could he be so remorseful after Miss Zhou, and even use wine to drown his sorrows.

If you say he is afraid, I believe him. Hearing about killing people is absolutely different from watching them kill with your own eyes. Although Cui Da knew what would happen, he must be afraid to see a living person become a dead person in front of him, and he would be afraid that that person would be killed along with him. But Cui Da went back alive, and also brought back the silver that the other party promised him to treat the disease, which shows that the other party never thought of killing Cui Da. I didn't do it at the time, and the chances of doing it in the future became much smaller. ”

"Maybe they regret it? It was they who went back and thought about it carefully, and the more they thought about it, the more they felt that my family Cui Da couldn't stay? This is murder, and if the people in the government know about it, they will also be beheaded. ”

"Cui Da won't say it, if he says it, he is also one of the murderers, and he will also be beheaded. Would a man who is reluctant to die of illness have the courage to put his head under the guillotine in public? Also, how can you, a woman who has just died of her husband, or a woman who knows that her husband will not survive, still be in the mood to apply grease and powder before going out, and even spray perfume on her body. And the clothes on your body, don't you think it's too festive? Describe your mood to you, is it too different? Mother Cui, you went out today, did you go to see others? ”

"I didn't, don't talk nonsense."

"I'm not talking nonsense, just call that person out and ask."

"What do you call out and ask, he's not here at all." After Cui's mother finished speaking, she quickly covered her mouth with her hand.

"Xiao Shengzi, get me the man who just ran out of the crowd. You also have a smart nose, and you should be able to smell the same perfume on his body as it smells on Cui's mother. That's jasmine, the jasmine fragrance unique to my Ruyi rouge shop. ”

Before the words fell, the man had already been grabbed by Xiao Shengzi.

Seeing this, Cui's mother turned pale and explained the rest of the things.

That person is Cui's mother's friend, and he has been tired of being in one place since Cui Da got sick many years ago. The reason why they conspired to kill Cui Da was not only because they felt that Cui Da was in trouble, but also because the amount of silver that Cui Da brought back was not small.

The idea was made by Cui's mother, and she didn't want to waste all the money on Cui Da's incurable disease. Sooner or later, men will have to die, and instead of waiting for the money to run out, it is better to die now, and still keep the money for her own expenses.

Cui's mother and her friends were all taken back to the mansion, and those onlookers also dispersed after Cui Da's body was carried away. On the corner of the street not far from the wellhead, there is the abbot master of the White Horse Temple, and on the wrist of the abbot master, there is a circle of Bodhi that makes Xing Ruyi very familiar.

Xing Ruyi thought about it, but still didn't walk over, but turned around and went back to the rouge shop. As soon as the curtain was lifted, he saw the fox standing in the shop with a young man.

"The shopkeeper is good, the small one is called Li Mao, from now on, the small one is the little guy in this Ruyi Rouge Shop."

Xing Ruyi looked at the traces of burns on Li Mao's neck, smiled at him, and said, "Welcome to become a member of Ruyi Rouge Shop!" ”
