Chapter 345 See who makes the first move
The night is quieter, and a thin moon hangs in the western sky.
Wei Yining had already let all the people in his courtyard rest, and after the people were settled, he quietly came out and secretly checked in several courtyards in the mansion.
The matter was still inconclusive, and she had to learn as much as she could.
The courtyard of Bao and others was very tightly guarded, and Wei Yimi was not locked up with Bao, but was placed under house arrest in his own courtyard.
The rest of the people were kept in a firewood house, divided into two rooms.
Wei Yining came to Guan He Ziyun's courtyard again, this woman is now a figure that cannot be ignored in the Wei family, of course, this is Wei Yining's personal opinion, there are many people who only regard her as an ordinary aunt candidate.
However, with Wei Yining's understanding of the Bao family, she must have known that He Ziyun was pregnant, although the Zhang family deliberately concealed it, but she could not hide it from the Bao family.
Wei Yining looked up at the sky again, and the trace of the moon had sunk, and the night was so dark that it was bottomless. The cool breeze is up, and the trees are rustling, which is quite a bit of a dark night and high wind.
"Wouldn't some people do something about such a rare night?" Wei Yining thought with some regret: "I thought that someone would be unable to hold back tonight and want to make a move!" ”
Just as Wei Yining turned around to leave, there was a slight movement in the courtyard, and she couldn't help but stop.
First, there were some miscellaneous footsteps, although those people had tried to light their steps, but they couldn't hide Wei Yining's ears.
It sounds like there must have been four or five people, a step larger than that of a maid, and it should have been a woman doing rough work.
This was followed by the sound of a careful door opening, and the merfolk could be heard entering the room.
Wei Yining's brows furrowed slightly, realizing that something was wrong.
Although He Ziyun is not a serious master, her house is not something that anyone can enter casually.
Moreover, it was late at night, and what were these women doing rough work doing in her house without being heard?
Wei Yining's mind flashed like lightning, and he immediately lowered his body and slipped through the side door into the courtyard where He Ziyun lived.
The few people who were keeping vigil slept very deeply, Wei Yining came to the door of the house in a few steps, there was no light in the room, and it was so dark that he couldn't see anything clearly.
There was a voice, not loud, like someone who was gagged and struggling.
Wei Yining knew that someone was going to harm He Ziyun, as for who it was and what it was for, although she couldn't be sure, she could guess a few points.
Of course, this person can't be allowed to succeed, Wei Yining kicked over the flower pot shelf under the porch, and there was a loud noise, which made the parrot on the shelf squeak and scream,
The people in the house immediately panicked, they were already thieves, and now there was such a big movement outside, obviously someone noticed it.
"What's going on in this courtyard?!" The mothers-in-law who were outside on night patrol happened to pass by nearby, and they all immediately ran over when they heard the sound.
"Run!" The people in the room whispered that they could not see the light.
Four or five people ran out in a hurry, and when they reached the door, they all tripped and fell.
Before he could get up, the night watchman outside had already arrived.
"What are you guys doing here?!" Aunt Su, who was patrolling the night, asked sharply: "Tie up these people, I'll go to the house to have a look first!" ”
Aunt Su carried the lantern into the house, and saw He Ziyun sitting on the ground with a white silk wrapped around her neck.
Wei Yining hid in the shadows, watching the night watchman take away the women and He Ziyun, and knew that things had taken a big step forward.
"I'll be able to sleep a few nights this time." Wei Yining went back to his yard unconsciously.
Both Zhang and Wei Zongyong were invited because someone wanted to murder He Ziyun.
He Ziyun's identity is ordinary, but she has Wei Zongyong's child in her belly, which is a child with high hopes.
He Ziyun sat on the chair with a pale face, obviously frightened, Wei Zongyong couldn't help but feel distressed when he saw it, and put his coat on her, He Ziyun threw himself into his arms and wept bitterly.
"You damn minions! Who told you to do this?! Wei Zongyong said angrily.
These people were already frightened, and at this time, they still had to think about it, and only wanted to save their lives, so they pointed to a woman led by them: "She was the one who made us do it, and said that each of them would give us a hundred taels of silver." ”
"Old lady, master, the slave is confused for a while," the leader cried, "I don't dare anymore." ”
Mingxin said: "Don't say these useless things, just say who instructed you to do it." ”
The man knew that he couldn't bear it, and he could suffer less as soon as possible, so he said: "It was the eldest lady who asked the slave to do it, she said that this Aunt He framed the old lady and the lady, but she was able to speak well, confused the master, and must be eliminated as soon as possible." Let the minions take advantage of the darkness to go to Aunt He's house, hang her, and make it look like she hanged herself. The guards outside were all mesmerized by the pre-arranged drug, and no one would know. ”
"If there is a mother, there must be a daughter," Zhang sneered: "Go and bring both their mother and daughter up, listen carefully!" ”
Bao and Wei Yimi were quickly brought in, Bao looked puzzled, and Wei Yimi immediately understood what was going on as soon as he saw He Ziyun.
"You can repeat what you said before, and you must not make a mistake in a word!" Zhang said to the servant.
Bao immediately panicked when he heard this, and hurriedly defended Wei Yimi: "There must be a misunderstanding in the middle, Mi'er won't do this." ”
"It's all a good daughter you raised! Still favoring her to this day! Wei Zongyong jumped up and shook Wei Yimi's mouth, and at the same time scolded: "Black-hearted thing! ”
Wei Yimi was afraid, remorseful and painful, covering her face and crying bitterly.
"During the day, I hit fifty boards on each of you, do you know what it is for?" After Zhang called everyone down, he said to Bao and the others: "I just want to see who can't help but do it first." ”
Wei Yimi's city government is not enough in the end, she thought about it after she went back, and felt that the current situation was very unfavorable to their mother and daughter.
He Ziyun is pregnant, and Zhang and Wei Zongyong will naturally favor her.
Their mother and daughter have lost power, and there must be many people who fall into the ground, so she must strike first.
Now both of them are suspicious, if He Ziyun dies and commits suicide, it means that she is a thief and commits suicide in fear of crime.
Anyway, dead people don't speak, and as soon as she dies, her mother and her own suspicions are cleared.
So she paid off the servant woman who brought her food, and asked her to find a few reliable people to do it.
In advance, the maids who guarded He Ziyun were drugged in their dinners, and when they woke up, they would find that He Ziyun was dead, and they would never dare to say anything about falling asleep at night, which would make them doubly punished.
It's just that she didn't expect that this matter would not work out in the end.
Of course, she wouldn't have thought that Wei Yining had intervened in the middle, otherwise He Ziyun would probably be a dead corpse at this time.
