Chapter 176: Clichés
Zhu Er listened carefully for fear of letting go of something important, she looked at Red Sleeves with her eyes but ignored Jiang Susu, who had been looking at her just now, and she was also pricking up her ears to listen to what Red Sleeves said.
From the time Red Sleeves entered this, she felt that Red Sleeves was not the kind of ordinary people, and it turned out that her guess was right.
"You mean that Li San is Miss's concubine?"
After the red sleeves finished speaking, Zhu Er asked in shock.
The teardrop eyes looked at Zhu'er's shocked face, and she nodded.
"I wanted to go to the lady's house that day and put the folded clothes at the head of the bed, but when I passed the yard, I saw a stranger sneaking into the courtyard, and shouting the name of the lady was very intimate, and then Li San said that it was the lady's concubine, and it happened that a family passed by and heard it, and I was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so I ......"
Red Sleeves covered her mouth and cried again, she washed her face with tears in the past two days, and even her eyes were red and swollen from crying.
"I just wanted to stop the family at first, but Li San was afraid of being discovered, so he took the hairpin out of nowhere and stabbed the family, oh yes, I heard Li San say that the hairpin was a token given to him by the young lady, and I thought about it carefully and felt that the hairpin in Li San's hand was the one that the young lady had lost before."
She didn't believe what Li San said before, but when she saw the hairpin in Li San's hand, he believed it.
Zhu Er raised her eyebrows and looked serious.
"Hairpins?"
Red Sleeves nodded, recalling the hairpin in Li San's hand.
"It's the hairpin that the eldest lady used to give to the young lady as a birthday gift, and it has been kept in the box, and I didn't care if I lost it for a while, but I didn't expect it to be in the hands of Li San."
"Then I panicked after Li San stabbed the family, what should I do if I let people know that the young lady had an affair with a man? So I ......"
Red sleeves choked, as if something was stuck in her throat, she felt aggrieved when she thought of Xiao Changge's eyes looking at her before leaving, she was taking this sin for her own young lady!
"My stupid red-sleeved sister, do you say that someone like Li San is worthy of our young lady?"
Zhu Er didn't know what to say, now all the puzzles have been solved, this is why Red Sleeves admitted in front of everyone that she had something to do with Li San, she wanted to apologize for Xiao Changge, and she subconsciously thought that Li San had an affair, so she was guilty.
If Red Sleeves could trust Xiao Changge a little more, maybe this kind of thing would not have happened, but she was also kind, for fear that this matter would have an impact on Xiao Changge.
The reputation of her young lady is already stinky enough, if you add a few gossips, I am afraid that her young lady will not be able to marry a good family in her life.
Red Sleeves rolled her eyes, her head suddenly opened a little, and she looked at Zhu Er in a daze.
"Then what do you mean ......"
"You were designed, then Li San is definitely not Miss's concubine, he said that on purpose and came for you."
Zhu Er was picky, but Zhu Er was still stunned.
If that's the case, then wouldn't her sin be in vain?
When she saw that Li San took out the hairpin, she believed that her young lady had something to do with the person in front of her, so she gave all her savings to Li San and asked him to change his story and say that she was the one who had an affair with him, and asked for the hairpin back.
admitted in front of everyone that she was trying to destroy the family and that she was having an affair with Li San.
If what Zhu Er said is true, then wouldn't she do bad things with good intentions and even put herself in? Now thinking back to Xiao Changge's eyes, I'm afraid I really don't know Li San.
"Sister Red Sleeves, next time you make this kind of decision, you have to ask Miss first, Miss like you is very worried about you."
Zhu Er sighed, she recalled Xiao Changge's excited appearance that day, and even that eye was as cold as a blade, piercing straight into the bone marrow, which made people feel cold.
If Red Sleeves denied having an affair with Li San at that time, then Xiao Changge would be able to exonerate Red Sleeves at that time, but the other party seemed to have calculated that Red Sleeves' character would definitely take the blame for Xiao Changge.
If that's the case, it must be someone in the house, and he's quite familiar with the temperament of the red sleeves, so this abacus can be played so accurately, and he also revealed the matter of the little beggar to the Yi Zhifu, so it seems that the other party has already planned everything.
It's really killing two birds with one stone.
"Miss, Miss, how is she?"
Hearing Xiao Changge, the tears of the red sleeves fell down like a kite with a broken string, tears swirled in her eyes, and she held Zhu Er's hand and asked nervously.
It doesn't matter if something happens to her, but her young lady must not be fine, otherwise she will be ashamed of her advice to Mrs. Shu.
"She's okay, Sister Redsleeves, are you okay here? Have you been wronged? ”
Zhu Er looked at the group of people in the prison and was terrified when she saw their unfriendly eyes and fierce looks.
"I'm fine, I'm fine, Zhu'er, you must find a way to save Miss."
Red Sleeves wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and prayed.
She thought it was for the sake of the young lady, but she didn't expect to drag Xiao Changge down again, she even had the heart to die at the moment.
"Hey, you're up in time, come out quickly."
Just as Zhu Er opened her mouth to say when, the voice of the jailer behind her sounded again, and Zhu Er bit her lip and looked a little anxious.
"Miss, I'll find a way over there, but Sister Redsleeve, you have to take care of yourself first, and in a few days, Miss and I will clear your name, I'll go first."
Zhu Er looked at the official brother behind him, his cheek came to the ear of the red sleeve, and muttered a few words in a low voice.
"You have to remember."
Before leaving, Zhu Er advised, looking extremely serious, Red Sleeves was stunned at first, and then nodded.
"Hurry up, hurry up, if you don't leave, someone will come here."
The jailer said anxiously, and Zhu Er couldn't help but smile, looking like she was talking and laughing.
"Brother Guancha, who is here to make you so anxious, not to mention that this place is not from Master Yi? What are you afraid of? ”
Cold sweat was dripping on the jailer's forehead, Zhu Er could see that he was indeed nervous, this person should not be referring to Yi Zhifu, otherwise how could he be so anxious?
"Hey, as far as the prisoner you just saw, the emperor wants to interrogate him personally, and now he has sent someone to guard it strictly! You're lucky to meet me today, but if you meet someone else on duty, I'm afraid it's ......."
The jailer glanced left and right, and whispered to Zhu'er.
Zhu Er looked at his gesture to know what he meant, Zhu Er squinted and smiled, took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and handed it to the jailer, the jailer took the silver, his face was obviously happy, but he still pretended to be distressed.
"Well, you know I didn't mean that."
The jailer looked distressed, but the hand held the ingot tightly and refused to let go.
Zhu Er covered her mouth and chuckled, but she didn't care.
"The little girl has worked hard for the magistrate and the eldest brother, and I hope that the official will send the eldest brother to buy wine and drink this bit of silver."
"Okay, I have the heart of the eldest brother for your kindness, but this matter has made the emperor personally come to trial, and this woman is also very powerful."
The jailer glanced in the direction of the cell where Xiao Changge was staying, he knew who the woman who lived alone in the cell was, but he didn't know that this incident had alarmed the saint.
It seems that Master Yi made the right decision before, to lock her up in a separate room, and to provide all the delicious food and drink, it stands to reason that the back door should not be opened for the beggar in front of him today, but the silver given by the beggar today is more than a month's salary, and he has met the God of Wealth today.
He looked at the woman in front of him who was dressed in tatters, but she was very polite in her speech, which made him look at it a few more times.
I didn't think she was anything strange before, but now that I look closely, I feel that she looks very good-looking, and if you wash the stains on her face white, she must be no worse than the woman outside.
"Thank you for today, big brother, I'll go first."
Seeing the prying eyes of the jailer, Zhu Er thought that something was wrong, as if she was looking at a naked person, and this gaze made her feel very uncomfortable.
"Oops......"
Zhu Er didn't even pause after speaking, turned around and left, the jailer behind her wanted to call her to stop, but she didn't even stop.
She didn't understand the relationship between men and women, but she could see what the jailer was thinking.
But what surprised her was that the emperor personally interrogated this matter, doesn't that mean that this matter will be a big problem?
What if her young lady can't find proof of her innocence?
Zhu Er frowned, she was really anxious to die at this time.
Inside the prison
Seeing Zhu Er leaving, Red Sleeves revealed a sense of loss in her eyes, and she sat back beside Jiang Susu with the roast chicken that still had residual warmth.
"Do you eat?"
Red Sleeves was reluctant to eat this chicken, but she was a little afraid of so many pairs of eyes looking at her.
As soon as the words fell, the roast chicken in his hand had already been divided into several pieces, and not even a bone was visible, and the group of people gobbled up as if they had never eaten meat, and the red sleeves retracted into the corner, looking at the person huddled in the other corner, the man's face was long invisible, his face was covered with desilt, swollen and red, and this was the masterpiece of the people in the prison.
The fragrance was tangy, her stomach gurgled and screamed, but she could only endure it, she remembered the fragrance of the cold steamed buns that Jiang Susu gave her, and the more she thought about it, the more fragrant it became.
"Eat."
Just as Red Sleeves was thinking, a small half of a white steamed bun appeared in front of her, Jiang Susu approached Red Sleeves and stuffed the small half of the steamed bun into Red Sleeves' hand so that no one could find out.
If they find out, where will it be their turn?
"You ......"
"Thank you."
She looked at Jiang Susu for a long time, and when those people were not paying attention, she stuffed this small half of the steamed bun into her mouth, and she was messed up, her face was swollen, and even her speech was a little blurred.
"No thanks, what are you who was that person just now? Does it look like it doesn't match what you're wearing? How did I get to know you? ”
Jiang Susu's eyes turned, and he asked when he saw that the red sleeves were eating with relish.
"That's Zhu'er, I served Miss with her."
Red Sleeves didn't think much about it, and directly treated Jiang Susu as a friend, and she was the best for her in this prison.
It's a pity that the red sleeves only cared about enjoying the deliciousness of this steamed bun, but they didn't see a trace of cunning in Jiang Susu's eyes.
"Oh? Miss? What kind of mistake did you make to offend your young lady and let people get caught in? ”
As soon as she heard Jiang Susu say bad things about her young lady, Red Sleeves was the first to be anxious, and quickly denied it, almost choking herself.
"Ahem, my young lady is not that kind of person! It's not my lady's business that I'm being victimized by a villain! I tell you, you've never seen anyone as nice as my young lady! ”
Red Sleeves pouted dissatisfied, a little angry, seeing Red Sleeves like this, Jiang Susu smiled, as if he was joking.
"Oh? I don't know which lady it is? It's such a good person, I also want to see it. ”
"My young lady's surname is Xiao, and I can't tell you so much about the rest."
Jiang Susu's eyes rolled, and he silently recited the word Xiao in his mouth.
Shaw?
How many families in this capital are surnamed Xiao? When it comes to the Xiao family, the first thing that comes to mind is naturally the Xiao family.
General Chu Guoxiao, commanding the battlefield, is the No. 1 big man.
I didn't expect it to be the maid in the Xiao Mansion......
