When Zhao Jiu saw Jin Que, Jin Que had actually been waiting outside Xuanzhu Hall for a long time, but the time she was standing here was not enough to make her anxious, because she had been waiting for this day for a long time, and she was sad, angry, struggling, and suffering a lot in the days and nights of cold and summer. In fact, she didn't gamble on life and death at the beginning, she also thought about self-preservation, and she thought about forgetting the dead person, and she found an excuse for herself.

It's not that I don't avenge your blood hatred, it's that I really can't do anything, I'm just a slave, just a slave, even my life and death are in the second lady's thoughts, what can I do for you?

But she can't forget those years of living together day and night, can't forget each other's dependence on each other, and can't forget the friendship of the dead who treated her.

When she learned that the young head of the family had warned her family members and maidservants that she could report evil deeds to the head of the family if she was coerced or enticed, she thought that she might not be able to do nothing.

What made her even more unexpected was that because Peng Zhong's family was expelled, the second lady actually transferred her to serve in the inner house and regarded her as a confidant.

Is it your soul that knows in heaven that gives you such a god-given opportunity?

If I still don't do anything, you'll resent me.

And today, when it is finally time for revenge, your soul will be relieved if God knows it, right? This is not in vain for us to know each other.

Jin Que followed Zhao Jiu into Xuan Zhuan Hall steadily, knelt down and saluted, and then straightened his spine.

"Jin Que, I treat you well, why do you listen to others' instigation to slander and betray the master?" Mrs. Peng didn't wait for Jin Que to open his mouth to make a preemptive attack.

"Why?" Jin Que smiled lightly at Mrs. Peng: "For the sake of Ziying." ”

Mrs. Peng stayed in her chair in shock.

Ziying is different from Jin Que, she is the son of the Taishi Mansion, unlike Jin Que's Lao Tzu Niang, who is Mrs. Peng's companion, Jin Que naturally belongs to the companion room because of Lao Ziniang, although she came to the Taishi Mansion at that time, only babbling.

"The slave and maid are blessed with a mother, and they died soon after following their wife to the Taishi Mansion, thanks to the care of Ziying and her mother, they did not suffer from hunger and illness due to lack of food and clothing, and the slave and the girl are like sisters, don't you know? Madame really doesn't care about these trivial things, but the slave doesn't dare to forget the love of Ziying. ”

When she missed her deceased parents, it was Ziying who cried with her; She was bullied by the rest of the family, and it was Ziying who protected her behind her; In the cold winter season, she and Ziying huddled in a quilt, snuggling up to each other for warmth; When she reached the age of dispatching envoys, it was obvious that she had made a mistake when she was trained, but it was Ziying who protected her and punished her with a bamboo board.

"The most regrettable thing in this life is that the slave maid should not beg the Peng Zhong family to let Ziying serve the second lady together, otherwise Ziying would not be forced by Madame to do those evil things!" Jin Que's eyes reddened: "But if Ziying doesn't do those things, Madame will make the slave and maid commit murder, Ziying is afraid that the slave and maid will not have anyone to rely on in the Taishi Mansion, and if they are exposed, there is no way out, unlike her, after all, she is the son of the Taishi Mansion, and Lao Tzu Niang can still ask for a favor for her, so as not to be sold." ”

Jin Que turned his face and stared at the second master with reddened eyes: "Does the master know that over the years, why so many aunts have not been able to give birth to an heir except for Aunt Xiao?" It's because Mrs. doesn't allow concubines to have children at all, when Mrs. has a firm foothold in the Taishi Mansion, once the aunt is pregnant, she will order to do harm, Aunt Xiao fortunately only gave birth to the eldest girl, and the second and fourth masters are not enough to become a threat, so Mrs. can tolerate the eldest girl has never died! ”

"Nonsense, this is slander, you

Bloody mouth! "Mrs. Peng was completely confused.

"Mrs. obviously promised Ziying, when she is old enough, she will let her marry, Ziying has been looking forward to that day for so long, but Mrs. is precisely because this is Ziying's own begging for a favor, I feel that Ziying is making her own opinion, in Madame's opinion, Ziying has her own ideas but is not loyal enough, she is Madame's slave, she should be at the mercy of Madame." Jin Que took a deep breath: "Ziying has too many handles in her hands, and Madame can't tolerate her 'disloyalty', and at that time, there was even more estrangement and dispute between Madame and the second master, Madame was afraid that the old man would spoil the concubine and kill his wife, and Madame saw that the old man was interested in Ziying, so she had a poisonous plan." ”

"Shut up, bitch doesn't shut up yet!" Mrs. Peng was on the verge of collapse.

But Jin Que naturally will no longer obey: "Mrs. in order to force Ziying to comply, used aphrodisiac, not only on Ziying, but also on the master, at that time the old man was still mourning for the old lady, but he was dazed and mourned/insulted Ziying, Mrs. knew that Ziying had already been in love with Jiang Dong, and used Ziying to still have a long-term wing, Mrs. persuaded with clever words, Mrs. said that the old man was originally a temperament that likes the new and hates the old, but he can't look for flowers and ask willows outside during the mourning period, as long as Ziying serves the master well during that time, In the future, Mrs. still agreed to let Ziying marry Jiang Dong.

Mrs. is like this to force Ziying to obey again and again, when Ziying is pregnant, she has the handle of the lord in her hand, and the concubine is pregnant, which is a big crime of unfilial piety and violation of the etiquette law, Mrs. thought that the lord would beg Mrs. to clean up the mess, and in the future, Mrs. has this handle, how many things the lord can only obey, for example, the lord has to help Mrs. Father get up and run. ”

Many clan elders in Xuan Zhutang listened to Jin Que's confession, and they couldn't wait to hide their faces...... I couldn't imagine that Zhao Zhoucheng would be so ridiculous, and I couldn't imagine that the Peng family would act like this for the sake of greed and desire, the family was unfortunate, the family was unlucky.

"But what Mrs. never imagined was that the master would insist on letting Ziying give birth to a fetus in the womb, Mrs. couldn't tolerate it, so she pretended to agree, and helped the master exercise the plan of secretly crossing Chen Cang, and quietly sent Ziying to the house temporarily rented outside the house to raise the fetus, but later took advantage of the master's negligence to make Peng Zhong's family and Pan Xiang's family strangle Ziying, in order to create the illusion that Ziying was committing suicide, Mrs. also instructed the slave maid, telling the master that Ziying was desperate, because she could no longer stay with her sweetheart for life, so she had the idea of seeking death."

Jin Que was already in tears at this time: "Ziying was killed by Madame, and the slave and maid had to help Mrs. cover up, because the slave and maid were also married at that time, and the slave and maid also had children, the slave and maid were selfish and the slave and the maid were cowardly, and the slave and maid did not dare to seek justice for Ziying, and the slave and maid could only help the slave and the maid to abuse her in order to protect themselves, but since then, the slave and the maid have not been subjected to the reproach of conscience for a day, and the slave and maid dare not see Ziying's Lao Tzu Niang again, the slave and the maid have never gone to Ziying's grave to worship, and the slave and the maid have no face to worship her at all!" ”

"Jiang Dong is now obeying the Gu family's dispatch, and Jiang Dong must be the Gu family's instigator to collude with Jin Que to slander me!" Peng is still dying.

Lan Ting asked lightly, "Then why did Ziying die?" ”

"She had a bad disease, she died of a bad disease, yes, she was sent out because she had a bad disease, I remembered her master-servant relationship of taking care of me, and rented a house to settle down first, and after Ziying died of illness, I also confessed to bury her!" Mrs. Peng stared at Zhao Zhoucheng closely: "The master also knows about this matter!" ”

Zhao Zhoucheng struggled again.

Of course, he was angry with Madame Peng's vicious heart and killed his flesh and blood in Ziying's belly, but if he admitted it...... That is a public admission that he had committed adultery during his father's funeral!

"Although Ziying has been buried, it must not be difficult to verify whether she was pregnant with Rokjia before she died

。 Lan Ting said lightly.

Where does Zhao Zhoucheng dare to support the certificate?

Lan Ting did not dwell too much on this old case: "The witness Jin Que continued to confess to many accidents today. ”

"Yes." Jin Que calmed down a little, and confessed with some reservations according to the steps given by the eldest grandmother: "The second lady was found to have set up a false account and lost money because of the eldest grandmother's investigation, which led to the right to be fed by the third lady and the fourth lady, and the more she hated the eldest grandmother for embarrassing her, she was originally planning a conspiracy to slander the eldest grandmother, one was afraid that the uncle would protect her, and then she was worried that the old lady would not agree, so she wasted a lot of time and tongue, and finally instigated the old lady to be dissatisfied with the eldest grandmother.

It just so happened that Aunt Meng was diagnosed with a happy pulse, and the second lady regenerated the poisonous plan of killing two birds with one stone, and the reason why she persuaded Aunt Yu to help her succeed was because the second lady was worried that if it was exposed, she pulled Aunt Yu and her to bear the responsibility. And in order to protect Aunt Yu, the master must not let Aunt Yu be convicted, so even if the master is suspicious, it will not hinder the second lady's plan to pollute the grandmother.

In order to confirm the crime of the eldest grandmother, the second lady not only coerced and lured Aunt Yu and the witty words to be an accomplice, but also ordered Pan Xiang to hire a murderer outside, and the slave maid witnessed the second lady hand over the silver tickets with a total of 190 taels of Hengfeng ticket number to Pan Xiang's family, as the money for hiring the murderer, Pan Xiang was looking for a group of thieves who lived by lending money, and inquired about them secretly taking over the work of buying people's lives, and the second lady's plan was to let this gang of thieves pretend to be the people of the Hou Mansion today, and first deceived Qingping out of the Taishi Mansion, and robbed Qingping on the way to a secluded place to kill, can also frame the eldest grandmother to hire a murderer, and kill Qingping to cause death without proof, so that the eldest grandmother is speechless. ”

Mrs. Peng was afraid that Qingping would confront the witty words, the two of them insisted on their own words, Chungui had Lan Ting's protection, in case Lan Ting wanted to threaten the witty words or even torture them to extract a confession, the witty words were afraid of revealing flaws that led to her failure, and if she failed to frame Chungui, she would be hated by Zhao Zhoucheng, so she wanted to put Qingping to death, so that even if Lan Ting favored Chungui, without Qingping's confession, just tortured and forced witty words would not be reasonable, she wanted to minimize her own risk.

But her plan to kill two birds with one stone must be concealed from Zhao Zhoucheng, so she did not dare to use the manpower of the Taishi Mansion, she could only use her own companion room, but Pan Xiang's father and son Mo said that they did not have the courage to commit murder at the feet of the Son of Heaven and still committed murder on Chinese New Year's Eve, even if they have this ability, Mrs. Peng can not rest assured, compared to the fact that it is safer to hire a murderer, even if the murderer is caught, it is not clear who the employer is, and Pan Xiang's head cannot be detected.

As for why Chungui wanted to kill his henchmen and leave such a living mouth as a witty saying, Mrs. Peng actually thought of a sophistry - after all, Witty Words are Aunt Meng's people, and it is too risky to do it in the Taishi Mansion, Chungui can't think of a way to deceive Witty Words outside, and thinks that the person who instructed Witty Words is Qingping, as long as Qingping dies without proof, she can completely deny the confession of Witty Words alone.

Mrs. Peng never expected that Jin Que would dare to betray her.

"Because of Jin Que's accusation, I have already taken precautions, of course the murderer hired by the second uncle and mother will not succeed, Qingping is not only unharmed, but the murderer has been arrested, if the second uncle and mother still want to deny it, the court can only sue the official for punishment, presumably the official will be able to judge the case." Lan Ting saw that Mrs. Peng's heart was so weak that she broke into a cold sweat, and then said: "However, if the second uncle and mother can truthfully confess, it is only an attempted murder, as long as the Taishi Mansion does not pursue it, Shi Tuiguan will not be unrelenting, just need to verify the past crimes of those bandits and bring the murderers to justice, so that the second uncle and mother can at least avoid prison." ”

Before Mrs. Peng could speak, Zhao Zhoucheng couldn't wait to convict her.
