In the antechamber, the Duchess of England and Mrs. Cheng Enbo were drinking tea, not noticing what was happening outside.

The British duchess is looking forward to it at the moment, this time she set up this banquet and invited Song Er to come over, in order to let her talk more and have more contacts with Wu'er.

They also have a good impression of each other in their hearts, and when the time comes, she will go to the Song Mansion to talk to the Zhao family, and maybe she will be able to talk about this marriage.

Mrs. Cheng Enbo asked someone to bring refreshments, and a black-faced woman who was waiting in the outer courtyard followed the maid who brought in tea and refreshments, and went to the English Duchess and Mrs. Cheng Enbo together.

Seeing that the black-faced mother-in-law didn't look very good-looking, she obviously had something to order.

After the maid who brought the tea and refreshments went down, the black-faced mother-in-law blessed her before she opened her mouth and replied.

"Madam, eldest girl, something is wrong, when the servant woman who was waiting in the kitchen went out to buy, she found the body of Ma Pozi, which was lying outside the house. The lieutenant chief had already brought the autopsy to the post-mortem, saying that a knife was inserted in the chest, and when he pulled it out, he died of excessive blood loss. ”

The black-faced mother-in-law is the steward who waits in the front yard and one of the henchmen of the British duchess. was ostracized in the British government, and was arranged by the British duchess to this private house and became the housekeeper in the front yard.

What's going on?

Ma Pozi is dead?

Dead so soon? How is this possible?

Just now, she also instructed Ma Pozi to take the second girl Song to see Wu'er, and she died so quickly? What kind of injuries did Miss Song Er suffer?

The British duchess was concerned about Song Jin and the safety of her daughter-in-law in the future, so she chased after her and asked.

"Mrs. Zhao, what's going on? Ma Pozi died outside the house, what about the second girl Song? Didn't I just tell Mrs. Ma to take the second girl Song to see the little boy? ”

The black-faced mother-in-law did not dare to deceive the British duchess, so she could only tell the truth.

"Madam, the old slave didn't see any Song Er girl. Ma Pozi went out early this morning, and before she came back at noon, the old slave ordered his subordinates to look for it, but he didn't expect to die outside. ”

"When Ma Pozi was found, Ma Pozi's body was already stiff, apparently dead for several hours."

"The lieutenant chief knows that Ma Pozi is a servant woman serving in our national mansion, and this is a deliberate murder, and the lieutenant has reported to the county and invited someone to help us arrest the real murderer."

After the black-faced mother-in-law said this, the British duchess was even more puzzled.

Didn't she just tell Ma Pozi to take the second girl Song to see Wu'er, so she died outside the hospital in a few hours?

She asked Mrs. Ma to take the second girl Song to see Wu'er in the courtyard, why did she take the second girl Song out of the house? What's the secret here?

Could it be that Fang Fang took Song Er to see Wu'er, not Ma Pozi?

That's impossible!

Ma Pozi has been serving by her side for many years, is it possible that Ma Pozi looks like, doesn't she know?

Seeing that the British Duchess was in deep thought, Mrs. Cheng Enbo also felt that there was something wrong with this matter, where did the second girl Song go now?

After calling the black-faced mother-in-law, Mrs. Cheng Enbo planned to let her go to the backyard where Zhang Wu is now to see, where is the second girl Song?

"Mrs. Zhao, go to the little boy's side and ask? See where Miss Song Er is? In the daylight, such a big living person, could it be that he lost it like this?"

The black-faced woman nodded, and when she was about to withdraw, she saw a white-faced woman, who rushed in in a hurry, and almost bumped into the black-faced woman who was about to go out.

The British duchess glanced at her, it was Mrs. Tan who was waiting by Zhang Wu's side, and she was about to order others to go over and ask, why did she come over so quickly?

Before the British duchess could ask, Mrs. Tan said it like a cannon.

"Madam, the son called the old slave to ask Madame, can the second girl Song pass? Childe waited in the backyard for such a long time, and thought that the second girl Song was not coming. ”

What the? Didn't Miss Song go to the backyard?

So where the hell did she go?

"Didn't Mrs. Ma take Miss Song to the backyard? Why hasn't it arrived yet? ”

From these words of the maid, the more Mrs. Cheng Enbo thought about it, the more she felt that something was not quite right.

Mother Fang Ming sent Ma Pozi to send Song Jin to see Zhang Wu?

Why did Mrs. Zhao say that Mrs. Ma died outside the hospital, and her body was already stiff, obviously dead for a few hours.

Mrs. Tan said that the second girl Song did not go to the backyard, but came to the front yard to ask questions in person.

Since Ma Pozi is dead, and the second girl Song did not go to the backyard, what about the second girl Song?

After thinking about it, Mrs. Cheng Enbo turned her head and glanced at the British Duchess beside her, and was about to speak. The British duchess took a step ahead of her and instructed Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Tan in front of her.

"Call the maids and servants who are waiting in the mansion, and find Miss Song in the mansion for me, and I am not allowed to let go of a corner."

"If you can't find Miss Song Er today, don't be on an errand in the Zhang family, where is suitable, you can go?"

The British duchess's words were so harsh that the two serving mothers-in-law did not dare to speak again on the spot.

The British duchess rarely said such harsh words, and after the two mothers-in-law reacted, they nodded hurriedly and answered "yes".

After the two mothers-in-law had left, Mrs. Cheng Enbo asked the British duchess.

"Mother, what the hell is going on? Could it be that the mother is worried, is the second girl Song already murdered? ”

The British Duchess was worried and worried, and indeed did not rule out the possibility that Mrs. Cheng En's mouth said, since Mrs. Ma was found dead outside the hospital, then the second girl Song who went out with Mrs. Ma was afraid that life and death were also uncertain.

The British duchess was always not very relieved, because Ma Pozi's body was still outside the courtyard, she planned to go and see it for herself, and ask her how long Ma Pozi had been dead.

Obviously, he had only been out for a short time, and he was found dead outside the hospital so soon. It's weird.

Out of the house, Ma Pozi's body was placed in a grass hut not far away.

The hut was newly built to protect the corpse from the wind and sun.

Next to the straw hut, there were several officials in soap clothes, leaning against the willow trees and dozing.

Seeing the two noble ladies walking towards this side, one official hurriedly woke up the other official who was still dozing.

"Two noble ladies, I don't know what you think? Li Chengzuo was conducting an autopsy in the shed, and asked the two noble ladies not to get close, so as not to disturb Li Chengzuo. ”

After Li Cheng came out, the British duchess asked the snow goose who was waiting with her to come forward and ask a few questions.

A moment later, Snow Goose returned to the Duchess of England and re-relayed what she had just said.

"Madam, it has been at least seven or eight hours since Ma Pozi died, and the body is already stiff."

It's been four or five hours since Ma Pozi died?

It was only half an hour before she ordered Ma Pozi to take Song Jin to see Wu'er, why did this Ma Pozi die for four or five hours?

Could it be that it was not Ma Pozi who took the second girl Song to see Wu'er, but someone else.

The British duchess thought about Song Jin's comfort, and said a few more words to the snow geese beside her.

"Snow Goose, take a few clever maids and servants, and go to the house to find Miss Song Er. Ma Pozi is dead, I'm worried that something will happen to her, and we don't have to explain to the Song family. ”

Xue Yan nodded, understood what the British duchess meant, and retreated with a few maids.

……

Xu Hui here, stimulated by Fang Cai's words, was afraid of anger on his face at the moment, and glared at Song Jin viciously.

Taking advantage of the fact that the two maids behind Xu Hui had not come forward, Song Jin squatted on the ground with lightning speed, quickly grabbed two handfuls of dust, and threw them on the faces of Xu Hui and the two maids.

The dust flew up and fell into the eyes of Xu Hui and the two maids, and the three people in front of them couldn't open their eyes for a while.

At this moment, Fleur took a bite of the dagger on the arm of the girl around her neck, and the girl did not react, and threw away the dagger in her hand in pain.

Taking this opportunity, Song Jin took Fu Hui's hand and quickly escaped from the house.

By the time Xu Hui reacted, Song Jin had already pulled Fu Hui and ran out of the distance.

Because he was not familiar with the environment in this house, and he didn't dare to relax, Song Jin could only take Fu Yuan's hand and rampage in the house.

While running, shouting for help!

However, the mansion in front of them was too big, and Song Jin and Fu Yuan shouted a few times in a row, but not only did no one respond, but even the echo came.

Worried that Xu Hui heard their voices, he followed the sound towards them, and ran out of a distance, so Song Jin asked Fu Hui to stop and call for help.

After shuttling through the peach forest for a long time, Song Jin really couldn't run, so he took Fu Yuan's hand and hid behind a big rock.

Now they are in the peach forest, although there are some peach trees to obscure them, but if you look closely, you can still see them shuttling through the forest.

In order not to let Xu Hui see it, they could only hide behind the boulder for the time being and make a slight adjustment.

"Girl, in fact, you can leave me alone, the life of a slave is not worth anything. If those people hurt the girl for the sake of the slave and maid, the slave and maid will die of guilt for the rest of their lives. ”

Fu Hui said, took out the sweat towel she was carrying from her cuffs, and gently wiped the beads of sweat oozing from Song Jin's forehead.
