As Rong Changning expected, Rong Chuan was resting in Lujia Courtyard, and when he learned that something like this had happened in Wanqing Courtyard, he took the lead in asking Aunt Xu to block the mouths of the subordinates, put on his clothes and hurriedly walked towards Wanqing Courtyard.

The people of the Wanqing Courtyard were panicked, and those little girls were hiding in the places where the master couldn't see and talking. Rong Changning stood in the courtyard and looked around, never seeing where Aunt Lin had gone.

When Rong Chuan arrived, he first looked at Rong Changning, and then asked someone to lift the white cloth and take a look, his face suddenly turned iron-blue, and Aunt Xu, who was running behind him, was so frightened that she ran directly into Rong Chuan's arms, and shouted in her mouth: "God! Whose iniquity is this?! ”

Rong Chuan hugged Aunt Xu in one hand, turned his head and gritted his teeth, and asked Rong Changning in a low voice: "What's the matter?!" ”

Rong Changning returned unhurriedly: "Back to my father's words, Changning also just got up, and he didn't know what was going on, so he really had no clue." As...... Call me to come and see? ”

"Master Hou." Aunt Xu called softly: "Master Hou just instructed to control the subordinates, this will go and ask the servants to come over, didn't you tell outsiders that our Hou Mansion has caused a fatality?" ”

Rong Changning asked, "Otherwise, what does my aunt want?" Is this a matter of force down? ”

"That's what your father meant. Changning, everyone is terrible, but this is in your yard. ”

Xu Yunqiao anxiously persuaded Rong Changning, looking like he was doing it for her good. Rong Changning is also used to these little tricks, and he didn't look at Aunt Xu and only said to Rong Chuan: "This is clearly a life lawsuit, and my daughter has asked the people in the courtyard to wait in their respective rooms for inquiry at any time." Everything is waiting for the father to decide. ”

Aunt Xu easily raised her red peach blossom eyes into Rong Chuan's arms and glanced at Aunt Cen.

Aunt Cen immediately knelt on the ground: "Master Hou! Slaves...... Guilty. ”

This play is finally sung. Rong Changning seemed to have waited for a long time, and raised the corners of his mouth and chuckled. Rong Chuan looked at the aunt on the ground: "You are the aunt in charge of the Wanqing Academy?" ”

"Back to the Hou Ye, the slave and maid are exactly."

"What are you guilty of?"

Rong Changning also looked at Aunt Cen on the ground, wanting to hear what her sins were. Aunt Cen raised her eyes to look at Rong Changning, and suddenly knelt down and crawled to Rong Changning's feet and kowtowed three times: "Second Miss!" You let go of the slave and maid, so hurtful and unreasonable, the slave and maid really don't dare! ”

Aunt Xu suddenly said: "If you have anything to say, just say it, Master Hou is here, you don't have to be afraid of anything." ”

Hearing Aunt Xu's words, Aunt Cen seemed to have taken a reassuring pill: "Master Hou, the girl buried in the backyard was ordered to death by the second lady." ”

Xiaoqiu couldn't hold back her temper immediately after hearing this: "What nonsense are you talking about?!" Mademoiselle has never called anyone to do such a thing! ”

"Xiaoqiu." Rong Changning called Xiaoqiu, stood there with a cold face and a straight back, lowered his eyes and asked Aunt Cen on the ground: "Okay, tell me, why did I ask you to execute that maid I have never even seen?" ”

"Miss, you have admitted it now. You are the daughter of Master Hou, and no one will do anything to you. But I am riddled with nightmares and evil ghosts every day, and I really can't casually forget that a living person died in front of me, and I don't dare to frame Aunt Xu for this! ”

When Aunt Xu heard this, her eyes were full of panic. His eyes stayed on Rong Changning for a long time, and then moved to Aunt Cen: "You are talking nonsense!" How could Changning do such a thing?! ”

"It's true!" Aunt Cen knocked on the ground and replied: "That girl is washing clothes behind the hospital, her hands and feet are clumsy and her brain is not bright enough, she washed the new clothes that Miss made in the spring this year, and it happened that Miss had just returned from Haihui Temple for a while, and she didn't know what was going on, and she was in a low mood and upset, so she ordered me to dispose of that girl." If it weren't for the heavy rain that had washed away the new soil in the flower beds, Miss would have called her...... Let the dead maid raise the flowers in the flower garden with her own blood and bones, and say that this is how the flowers bloom more beautifully. If it happens, it will be pushed to the head of the Lugasa Courtyard......"

Rong Chang stood there quietly and listened to her, thinking that she dared to reverse black and white and press it on his head, and he must have made a lot of preparations. That's for the best.

But even if Rong Changning was cold and arrogant, Rong Chuan still didn't believe that his daughter would do such a thing, and raised his hand to point at Aunt Cen on the ground: "Do you know what you're talking about?" ”

"Master Hou! Slaves dare to swear to God! ”

"How much is the oath worth? At the beginning of the year, the eldest son of the Qi family in the west of the city had a dispute with someone, and he lost his life, destroyed the corpse and transported the corpse out of the city overnight, and when he was interrogated, he also pointed to God and swore that it had nothing to do with him. At the door, Rong Ling hurried to the Wanqing Courtyard, and before the person entered the door, the words came in first: "What day hit five thunders, until he entered the prison door, he didn't see the heavens descending thunder to kill him!" But if the plague lasts for a thousand years, and if I turn against you for this act of rebellion against the Lord, I will know that you are not a good thing. ”

After saying that, Rong Ling stood beside Rong Changning and saluted Rong Chuan: "Father." "The Eighth Library

Then he stared at Aunt Cen on the ground: "Unless you dare to promise, if what you say is false, you will kill yourself immediately." ”

“……”

"Say!" Rong Ling shouted angrily, even Rong Changning was shocked, she rarely saw her eldest sister angry, let alone seen her so aggressive. Looking back at Xiao Dong, she nodded slightly at Rong Changning, and Rong Changning knew that she had already watched Rong Ruo get in the car and leave, and turned around and went to the Lan Courtyard.

Anyway, the eldest sister is in the house, and sooner or later she will know. Fortunately, Rong Ruo was sent away, if he was in Rong Changning, he would always have to worry that he would be reckless and say the wrong thing, so that Aunt Xu would grab the handle and embarrass him together.

Standing beside the eldest sister, Rong Changning echoed coldly and quietly: "Say it, if you are false, kill yourself in front of me in my Wanqing Courtyard, I am not afraid of being dirty." ”

Aunt Cen, who was kneeling on the ground, hesitated, raised her upper eyelids and looked at Xu Yunqiao's shoes, and glanced at Xu Yunqiao. Seeing Xu Yunqiao open her eyes without saying a word, Aunt Cen hurriedly lowered her head: "The slave swears that if what she said today is false, she will ...... It's set to be self-defeating. ”

"Even so, you can't let your white teeth and bloody mouth open." Aunt Xu seemed to be righteous and pointed at Aunt Cen on the ground: "Apart from you, what evidence is there?" ”

"The slave knew that slandering the head of the house was a serious crime, so she did not dare to talk nonsense. At the time of the incident, the slave maid was very frightened, and later learned that long before the slave maid came to this courtyard, the second lady had done many such things, and sixty percent of the people in the courtyard knew about it! Look at the Hou Ye to see! ”

Rong Chuan took a deep breath and asked, "Which sixty percent?" ”

"Master Hou asked people to ask one by one." Aunt Cen raised her head and looked at Rong Chuan with red eyes, and saw that Rong Chuan called Steward Yang: "Go and ask, ask one by one." ”

"Yes."

The maids in the Wanqing courtyard were called to the courtyard one by one, Rong Chuan was not in a hurry to ask Rong Changning and was not in a hurry to justify, the next person brought the table and tea bowls, and several masters sat in the courtyard, listening to the rustling of the leaves in the wind, and waiting for the people in the Wanqing courtyard to be pulled to the front to sue Rong Changning.

Steward Yang led people to inquire one by one, and asked someone to transcribe what they said in detail, and the movement naturally spread to the West Wing. Rong Xin stood at the door with green bamboo, craned his neck and looked out, but he didn't dare to step out of the door for half a step. Watching people come and go, he asked, "What kind of trouble is this?" ”

The green bamboo outside the door returned: "The slave heard the movement early in the morning, saying that a dead man was dug up in the flower garden behind the courtyard of the Wanqing Courtyard. ”

Rong Xin's eyes widened and turned to look at Lu Zhu: "Someone died?!" ”

"yes. In a back house like our Hou Mansion, it is not uncommon for one or two people to take their lives. But Aunt Cen didn't say that it was the second lady who asked someone to beat her to death and bury her in the flower garden. ”

"How could a second sister kill a maid for no reason? The second sister admitted it? ”

Lu Zhu shook his head, and Rong Xin asked again: "Didn't you call him to check?" ”

"The second lady said that she was going to call before, but the aunt said that she was afraid of losing the second lady's name, so she pressed it. If the second lady misses her hand and accidentally kills her subordinates when punishing them, Master Hou will be punished for a few days. But the one surnamed Cen is different. ”

Rong Xin is smart, when she talks about this, she naturally understands what is hidden, she told Luzhu: "My father is a human being, and my mother knows it best." Even if he loves his children many times on weekdays, in the face of right and wrong, there is no room for sand in his eyes. If the aunt's trick is successful, she will really find many witnesses in the Wanqing Courtyard, even if her father is reluctant to ask for Rong Changning's life, he will send her back to Hengliang's hometown to be pressed under the hands of several clan veterans. When they arrived in Hengliang, it was much more convenient for the people of the Xu family to do whatever they wanted. ”

After speaking, he smiled at the corner of his mouth: "My aunt really played a good game of chess, and the chess pieces that were placed in the Wanqing Courtyard earlier were all used, but there should be thousands of them, and the most important thing is that she actually took Rong Changning as a child." ”

Stealing chickens is not a loss, and Rong Xin has done a lot of rice things, and he can't extricate himself from Xiao Zhengyu's matter last time. And he has been in the Wanqing Courtyard for so many days, Rong Changning has prepared good food and drink for himself, and he has never troubled himself, Rong Xin will also understand that if he doesn't do it, Rong Changning will be able to get along safely.

If you can't think about it, you will always suffer a loss if you use the methods of an ordinary daughter's family to deal with Rong Changning.

"Let's see, Rong Changning is very different from the master's mother." Rong Xin said to Lu Zhu: "Mother uses the kung fu she used to deal with those warblers and Yanyan around my father on Rong Changning, and she will definitely lose a big one." ”

After saying that, Rong Xin gloated and went back to the house, closed the door, and waited for his mother, who had abandoned him, to fall on his heels and remember his own goodness.

It didn't take long for Steward Yang to take the person who had been questioned to the front, and handed a stack of confessions in his hand to Rong Chuan.

Rong Chuan waved his hand, called the maids who played the fan down, picked up the confession and looked at it seriously, Steward Yang said: "In the courtyard of the second young lady, there are a total of sixty people who serve and rough envoys. Forty-seven of them said they had been beaten, and thirty-nine had wounds and scars. There are two more, I heard that there was a death this morning, and they said that they were not treated by the second lady on weekdays and wanted to commit suicide, but fortunately they were stopped. ”
