"Lord Wang," Xia Huaiqing turned around again, his body lowered slightly: "I will take this unfortunate thing back to teach it well, and please rest assured that I will teach the little girl well."

With a good heart, he took Xia Zhiqiu back like this, and he listened to it as a lesson for her, and carefully tasted what he said, and it can be seen that he only said that his daughter had brought trouble to the palace, and he had never admitted the crime today. Xia Zhixue looked at Xia Huaiqing's appearance of secretly maintaining Xia Zhiqiu, and her heart was sour. How could her father have treated her like this?

Ouyang Huaiyu looked at Xia Huaiqing nailly, his eyes were dark, and Xia Huaiqing, who was looking directly, had hair in his heart, and he didn't dare to look directly, and his body was bent even lower.

His voice was calm: "The eldest lady is only able to refute her innocence, if she follows the Hou Ye back to the Hou Mansion like this, I am afraid that it will ruin Zhiqiu's innocent reputation, and secondly, it will seem that our royal palace is ignorant and wronged the daughter of the Hou Mansion."

Facing his cold-lightning knife eyes, Xia Huaiqing lacked confidence: "Lord Wang, what do you mean by this?"

"If we don't dig into this matter today, there will be no overflow for us, if I say this, can Master Hou understand?" Ouyang Huaiyu's voice was surprisingly calm.

Cold sweat broke out on Xia Huaiqing's head, and he nodded: "Understood."

"Come on," stretched out his hand to summon Hua Cheng: "Give Master Hou and the third lady a seat."

"Yes."

After the two of them sat down, Ouyang Huaiyu spoke up: "Zhiqiu, you will repeat today's events to your father and sister again."

"Yes," Xia Zhiqiu shrunk his neck and said, "Today at noon, I look at the sky...... The weather was good, and I thought that I could go back to the Hou Mansion tomorrow, and I was happy, so I ...... So he went out for a walk, and when he walked to the lake, Da Lian ...... And she knelt before me and begged the prince to take her, and when I saw that the girl was crying pitifully, I was moved with compassion, and I wanted to help her up, but as soon as I got in her way, she pushed my hand violently, and then fell into the lake herself. ”

"You talk nonsense!" Uncle Zhong didn't believe it.

Xia Zhiqiu slammed his head on the ground: "Lord Wang, what I said is true, and there is no lie." Heaven is above, I can swear. ”

"Third Miss, can you believe what your sister says?" Ouyang Huaiyu suddenly turned his head, looked at Xia Zhixue who was out of the way, and asked.

Why is it involving me again? Xia Zhixue had already scolded Ouyang Huaiyu hundreds of times in her heart: "I haven't seen this with my own eyes, so I don't dare to make a conclusion."

You little girl picked herself clean, Ouyang Huaiyu just watched her sit on the side and fell asleep, so he finished reminding her.

"Da Lian Ke woke up?" Ouyang Huaiyu asked Hua Cheng on the side.

"Never."

"My hard-working daughter," Uncle Zhong burst into tears, and knocked his head to the ground: "Please also ask the prince to call the shots."

Ouyang Huaiyu pondered for a long moment, looking at the eyes of the two kneeling below. He can't offend any of these two people, but they have their own opinions.

After a while, he said slowly: "Was there anyone else present at that time?"

"Lord Bing," Hua Cheng said, "The small group is here."

The small group is Xia Zhiqiu's rough maid, who doesn't say much on weekdays, and always follows Xia Zhiqiu meekly.

"Bring it on."

"Yes."

After a while, the people followed Hua Cheng to the lobby.

"Small group." Ouyang Huaiyu said in a deep voice.

The girl named Xiaotuan knelt on the ground, and her voice trembled slightly: "The slave is here."

"This king asks you, do you want to answer truthfully, and if you have half a lie, you will not be spared." Ouyang Huaiyu's face sank, looking at Xiao Tuan, his voice was low.

Xiao Tuan trembled with fright: "Yes."

"Today, but you accompanied the eldest lady to the lake for a walk?"

"Yes."

"Then I met Da Lian, Miss Da Lian is obsessed?"

"Yes."

"Da Lian fell into the water by herself and framed the eldest lady?"

His eyes were slightly unnatural, he glanced next to Xia Zhiqiu, and quickly lowered his head: "Yes."

"What do you see her doing?" Ouyang Huaiyu didn't ask anymore, just shouted.

Xiao Tuan's neck shrank: "Slave...... Slaves and maids don't. ”

Ouyang Huaiyu sneered: "No? Are you only blind to this king? What is the truth? Come on! ”

"Lord Wang...... I say...... I said......" Xiaotuan cried: "Yes...... It was the eldest lady who asked me to say that! ”

"You! When did I teach you to say that? Don't talk nonsense! Xia Zhiqiu defended loudly and waved his hand again and again: "Lord Wang, I didn't!" I really don't! ”

Without giving her a look, Ouyang Huaiyu looked straight at the small group on the ground: "What you said is true!" Didn't deceive the king? ”

"What the slave said is true."

"Take it down."

"Yes."

Ouyang Huaiyu stood up and walked to Xia Zhiqiu's side: "What else do you have to say?"

"Lord, the hooves frame yours, I was wronged." Xia Zhiqiu burst into tears: "It must be a group of them who joined forces to frame me."

Pointing his finger at the face of the person next to him: "It's not you!" You can't marry your daughter to the prince as you wish, and you are jealous that I have won the favor of the prince, so you become jealous and try to make the prince disgusted with me. ”

Uncle Zhong raised his eyebrows: "The eldest lady must have evidence to speak, I don't know Xiaotuan well, and she serves you all day long, when will we be able to ventilate?"

Xia Zhiqiu knelt on the ground, tears blurred his eyes, and when he turned his head, he saw Xia Huaiqing looking at him with hatred of iron and steel, and suddenly seemed to have found dependence, crawled over, and pulled Xia Huaiqing's shirt: "Daddy, you know your daughter's character best, how could your daughter do such a hurtful thing, her daughter was really wronged, father, you believe me!"

Seeing that Su Ri's white daughter had become like this, he didn't feel good in his heart: "Lord, the son is not the fault of the father, and I also know the daughter I raised, this child has been soft-hearted since she was a child, and she doesn't dare to look at it." How much more will you let her kill people? ”

"Your daughter is a daughter, isn't my daughter?" Uncle Zhong looked at Xia Huaiqing with a look of resentment: "My family's big lotus is the most honest, she laughs when she sees people on weekdays, and her mind is pure, how can she have such careful thoughts?"

Ouyang Huaiyu only felt a headache, saying that he was here to serve him who was sick, how many things did he cause in the end?

"Everything will wait for Da Lian to wake up, if it is Xia Zhiqiu's fault, this king will not tolerate it, Hua Cheng," Ouyang Huaiyu pinched the corners of his forehead: "Send Uncle Zhong back first, and then send someone to send Hou Ye Haosheng home, the eldest lady will stay in the Hou Mansion for a few days, as for the third lady," he raised his eyes and forgot Xia Zhixue, who had never made a sound, before he said: "Only the eldest lady is left and right in the mansion, so as not to let people outside gossip and speculate, so I will stay and go back for a few more days."

After settling the others, he called out to those who wanted to leave after saluting: "What? Just in such a hurry? ”

Xia Zhixue nodded: "Yes, after coming out for so long, my soup woman is cold."

"Lotus, go get a new soup lady and give it to the girl."

"Yes."

"What else is the matter?" Xia Zhixue sat on the stool again, looking tired.

Ouyang Huaiyu poured her a cup of tea: "Taste, new tea."

"If the prince has something to say, you might as well say it directly."
