Chapter Seventy-Four: Incense Condenses and Poisons

"Quick! Come on! The man screamed desperately, drawing the attention of the rest of the prisoners.

"What's wrong!" The officials came in and were shocked.

"Little brother of the servant, save that girl!"

Seeing this, the official quickly opened Ye Ling's prison door.

"Miss Ye! Miss Ye! ”

Seeing that she was foaming at the mouth, the official carried her out in a panic.

The rest of the prisoners were looking at the iron fence and muttering.

"Yo, what's going on?"

"What's wrong with this girl?"

There was no doubt that Ye Ling had been poisoned, but it was too late, she was poisoned, and the magistrate said that the arsenic content in her stomach could quickly lead to death, so Ye Ling died.

The magistrate asked who had poisoned her, and both the official and Brother Shen said that Xiangning had come and that she had been poisoned after eating her.

Not from time to time

It has been confirmed that Ye Ling has been poisoned and died, and the magistrate immediately summoned Xiang Ning, and even Xinlian was not allowed to accompany him.

At this time, Xiangning was also confused, and when she entered the yamen, she still summoned her for some reason.

"Ascension!" Lord Zhixian shouted.

"Mighty ......"

She knelt down in the public hall and asked, "Lord Zhixian, what happened?" ”

The people behind him began to gather.

"If this official remembers correctly, you are the second lady of the Li Mansion?"

"Exactly."

The magistrate pointed at her, "You, as the second lady of the Li Mansion, can be forgiven for avenging the outside of the staff, but if you mutilate the lives of others for no reason, you can also be convicted!" ”

Xiang Ning was stunned and stared at her eyes, "My lord, what are you talking about...... Why? ”

"What do you mean? You really don't know? ”

"The Folk Girl Doesn't Know ......"

"Ye Ling, aren't you poisoned!"

When Xiang Ning heard this, her upright body suddenly collapsed.

"What are you talking ......about, sir?"

The magistrate repeated it again.

"Ye Ling, you poisoned me to death."

What the......

Xiang Ning suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, she had just met her, how could she ......

"This ...... How could it be ......"

"Ye Ling's stomach contains a lot of arsenic, and there are witnesses who saw with their own eyes that you once brought food to Ye Ling, and she was poisoned after eating it, so she died violently in prison."

Xiangning's face turned pale, "Impossible...... No way...... Miss Yip...... It couldn't be ......."

"Now, what else do you have to say!"

Xiangning tried her best to calm down, and she said firmly to the magistrate: "My lord! Not a folk girl! No! The folk girl was not poisoned! ”

"You didn't poison you, but do you have proof?"

Evidence...... Evidence......

Xiang Ning nodded again and again, and said eagerly: "My lord! The folk girl has proof! Big lady! The eldest lady was also there at the time, she can prove that the folk girl is not lying! ”

The magistrate listened to it and drank.

"Someone! Will be brought to the court in Minlan! ”

"Yes!" Several guards clenched their fists.

Half-night......

The eldest lady was taken to the court and knelt down.

"Lord Zhixian."

Then he looked at the incense next to him and felt strange.

"Why are you here?"

Lord Zhixian knocked on the shocked wood, "Xie Xiangning, now, you can talk about it." ”

Xiangning frowned and glanced at the eldest lady.

"Back to my lord, I was cooking for Miss Ye in the kitchen that day, and Sister Min Lan also saw it, isn't it, Sister Min Lan!"

The eldest lady listened and nodded again and again.

"Uh...... That's right, it's the magistrate. ”

"Why do you want to cook for Ye Ling?"

When Xiang Ning heard this, she replied: "My lord, because the people believe that the murderer is someone else, and she doesn't want the good people to suffer. ”

"She's a suspect in the killing, why are you so sure?"

"I ......"

"So, you were by her side while she was cooking?" The magistrate pointed to the eldest lady again.

"Not really, when I went to the kitchen, she had already made three dishes."

"So, you can't prove that she was poisoned?"

"Poisoned?" The eldest lady was shocked.

Xiang Ning shook her head at her, "Sister Min Lan, I didn't!" ”

"Lord Zhixian, what's going on? What the...... Poisoned? ”

"Xie Xiangning poisoned the food."

When the eldest lady heard this, she denied it again and again.

"What...... Impossible Adult! ”

Lord Zhixian snorted coldly, "She came to the prison to bring food to Ye Ling, and then added arsenic to kill her." ”

When the eldest lady heard this, her face also changed. "The cheap man who killed the master. People are poisoned? ”

"Presumptuous!" The magistrate knocked on the table.

The eldest lady looked at Xiangning in surprise, "Sister, I originally thought that you would pity her by bringing her food, but I didn't expect you to ......"

"Sister Min Lan, it's not me! I didn't poison it! ”

Lord Zhixian pointed to the eldest lady, "Why are you going to the kitchen today?" ”

The eldest lady leaned down an inch.

"Back to the adult, the folk girl felt that something was wrong with her, so she wanted to find out what was going on, and learned that she gave that cheap. People deliver food, I'm not angry, the old man has just entered the ground, she rushed to pity her, if I knew she was going to poison, I wouldn't let her go, my lord! ”

When Xiang Ning heard this, she shook her head again and again, and said hurriedly: "My lord! That's not true! The folk girl was not poisoned! Ask the adults to believe in the people's daughter! The folk girl really didn't poison her! ”

The eldest lady frowned, "Sister, although Ye Ling really deserves to die, you shouldn't poison her without telling me!" ”

"Sister Min Lan! I said it wasn't me, why don't you believe me! ”

The eldest lady gave her a look, then lowered her head and whispered, "You...... How does this make me trust you? ”

"So you can't testify for her, can you?"

The eldest lady's tangled appearance was completely revealed, "This ...... My lord, I can't testify to her, but she can't do that......"

"My lord, it really wasn't made by a folk girl! Before the folk girl came to the prison to give Miss Ye to eat, she tried every dish for her, if it was said to be poisonous, why did the folk girl do anything? ”

The magistrate of the county pondered, if it wasn't for Xiang Ning's doing, then why would Ye Ling be poisoned? Moreover, it was detected that there was indeed no problem with the meal Ye Ling ate, and the problem only appeared in the bowl of residual egg drop soup.

Lord Zhixian pointed at Xiangning, "This egg drop soup was also made by you?" ”

"Lord Hui, it was made by the people's daughter, the people's girl made four dishes and a bowl of soup for Miss Ye, I hoped that Miss Ye could eat better in this prison, but I didn't think about ......it."

"Wait!" The Grand Lady interrupted them suddenly.

"Sister, what is that ingredient you added?"

Xiangning frowned, "What material?" ”

The eldest lady tried to help her recall, "Didn't you add a sauce when you made egg drop soup?" It's white, I happen to see it, what's that? ”

"I haven't added anything, have I?"

The eldest lady said firmly: "Impossible, I can see it clearly, it is white, I thought it was a condiment added to the soup." ”

The magistrate listened and motioned to the guards next to him.

The guard presented an object to the eldest lady's eyes.

This is a white powder packed in kraft paper.

"Look, but this thing?"

The eldest lady looked at it fixedly, and nodded her head again and again, "Yes! It's this thing! Here's what I see! ”

Xiang Ning snatched this thing over and looked at it carefully, "What is this?" When did I add this! ”

After that, Xiangning dipped some and wanted to put it in his mouth to taste what kind of material it was.

The magistrate immediately interrupted her, "Slow! ”

"It's highly toxic, arsenic!"

Arsenic......

When Xiang Ning heard this, she hurriedly threw it away.

Lord Zhixian pointed to the eldest lady, "You said, you saw her add this thing to the egg drop soup?" ”

"Yes...... It's ......"

Xiang Ning immediately retorted: "You...... You are talking nonsense! I've never added this! ”

The eldest lady was a little anxious, "Then what did you add?" Wouldn't it be nice if you couldn't say it? ”

Xiang Ning was angry, she just decided that she hadn't added anything.

"Yu Minlan! What the hell do you mean! I've already said that I didn't add anything, why frame me! ”

The eldest lady is not a vegetarian, she really sees it, what does she mean by this? Could it be that she deliberately framed her!

"Xie Xiangning! Whoever gave you the audacity to call me by my name, if I hadn't seen it, how could I have said so! ”

"Shut up!"

The magistrate is really bored, why are there so many things going on in the girls' families!

However, since Ye Ling was identified as killing the outsider, then the Li Mansion should not have any guilt towards Ye Ling, even if Ye Ling was not the murderer.

So why did Xiangning cook and deliver food to Ye Ling herself?

Why was she so sure that the murderer was someone else?

According to the eldest lady, she let the kitchen rest and she came by herself, and there was no one else in the kitchen at that time, so why did Xiangning break them up?

Including the eldest lady saw that Xiangning had added something to the egg drop soup, and the egg drop soup in Ye Ling's bowl did have a lot of arsenic.

Ke Xiangning refused to admit it, and the two insisted on their own words.

Xiang Ning said that the eldest lady was also there that day, if this is the case, the eldest lady must have seen it, and made sure that Xiang Ning added something.

If the eldest lady was poisoned, why didn't Xiangning see it?

"Put Xie Xiangning in prison for the time being."

Xiang Ning kowtowed again and again, begging.

"My lord! It's really not a folk girl! The folk girl didn't poison her, my lord! ”

Xiangning was dragged down by the officials, and the wails seemed to spread far away......

"My lord, then I ......," the eldest lady asked.

"Go home."

"Lord Xie Zhixian." With that, the eldest lady walked out of the yamen.

The surrounding crowd gradually evacuated.

When the eldest lady returned to the Li Mansion, she felt that her eyes were blurry, how could such a thing happen today?

She walked outside the staff room and muttered, "Master, ......"

She missed the staff outside, so she had to wander in the side room outside the staff, looking at the bed that the staff had slept in, she burst into tears.

"Master, I told you a long time ago, Xie Xiangning is not a good thing, you still have to pamper her so much, this Li Mansion, Min Lan is really to you."

"Now, you regret it, you even risked your life for her, and now that she is in prison, she has no brains to poison that cheap. People, you have spent so much thought on her all these years, is it worth it? ”

After saying that, she suddenly felt a fainting and fainted.

This night, she slept until the end of the night, but no one woke her up.
