"Wronged? Yue Gongzi was poisoned by oleander after eating the pastry you sent, and you still dare to cry out for injustice? said, why do you want to harm Yue Gongzi? Do you still have complicity? ”

Xiao Chengzhi has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he has seen too many tricks in the court, this maid is just a chess piece, he and Nangong Mo have the same idea!

As soon as he thought that someone would dare to murder Yue'er in his mansion, he was furious.

"~ Slave, the slave and maid really didn't harm Yue Gongzi, the slave and maid only entered the house last month, and they haven't even seen Yue Gongzi's face, so how can they know which one is Yue Gongzi? And how did he murder Yue Gongzi? I beg the lord to be clear, the slave and maid are wronged! ”

The maid still knelt on the ground, terrified, but her sentences were clear.

Xiao Fengxi couldn't help frowning slightly, and looked at her quietly.

"Master Hou, this maid is indeed the one who only entered the mansion last month! Because she was a newcomer, she was only asked to do chores in the dining room, and she was sent out to deliver pastries because she was busy today! ”

The housekeeper of the Xiao Mansion whispered in Xiao Chengzhi's ear. It was not heard by others.

"How dare you not recruit? Someone is coming, and the punishment is waiting! Fifty rods and beatings until she says so! ”

Xiao Chengzhi frowned slightly, but he still felt strange, there must be something wrong with this maid, he let out a loud sigh and ordered the soldiers.

"Wait for your life! The slave and maid have been wronged..."

"Execution!"

"Yes, it's the princess, it's the princess who wants to borrow the hand of the slave and maid to murder Prince Yue!"

The maid saw the thick wooden stick in the hand of the palace guard, her eyes were full of fear, and her whole body trembled, she knew very well the consequences of these fifty sticks hitting her.

What the? The Royal Princess?

Except for Nangong Jinyun and Gu Qingqiu, who had a surprised and smug expression, everyone else looked at Mu Li in disbelief and confusion. Odd book e-book

"What? ~It's me? Are you sure I instructed you? ”

Mu Li thought that she had misheard, pointed to herself, and asked the maid in surprise.

Nangong Mo's fingers were clenched, without any expression, but his eyes were deep and dark, and he looked at it coldly.

Xiao Fengxi's frowning brows deepened a little. With his hands clasped to his chest, he looked thoughtfully, again without speaking.

He didn't believe the maid's words at all. Just wondering why she pulled Mu Li out?

"You are talking nonsense, our princess is so good to Prince Yue, and she was desperately trying to save him just now, how could she harm him? In order for yourself to get out, you don't want to frame the princess! ”

Linglong rushed to Mu Li's side, opened her arms to block her, with her, no one wanted to harm her young lady.

"The slave is not talking nonsense! The slave and maid served the cakes on a plate in the dining room with other people, and the plate served by the slave and maid was brought from among the many plates, not by the slave and maid. It is impossible for a slave or maid to put poison in the pastry in advance. This other person can testify for the slave! Please wait for the master to take a clear look. The maid lifted herself slightly, her head still bowed, and her tone was affirmative.

"Along the way, the slave maid has also been with others and has not left, and this waiting master can also ask others for verification."

Seeing that there was no objection from everyone present, the maid plucked up her courage and continued.

"It's just, it's just that the slaves and maids met the princess at the garden gate."

At that time, the princess accidentally bumped into the slave maid and messed up the pastries on the slave maid's plate, and several pieces fell to the ground. The princess also personally helped the slaves and maids tidy up. Seeing that a few pieces were dirty, she also took out a small food box from her sleeve and said to the slave maid that Yue Gongzi liked the rose cake she made the most, and she specially brought a few pieces, and the princess wanted to put the pastries she made with her own hands and the eldest princess to see if Yue Gongzi could taste it, saying that it was a surprise for Yue Gongzi. ”

"In order to keep the slave and maid secret, the princess also rewarded the slave and maid with a piece of gold! The slave and maid were greedy for money for a while, and saw that there were a few pieces of pastry missing from the plate, in order not to be punished, the princess was the sister-in-law of Yue Gongzi, and it would be okay to think about it, so the slave and maid had to agree to make up for it with the pastries brought by the princess. The slave and maid were confused, greedy for money for a while, and it was also out of kindness that they would be used by the princess, but they didn't expect the princess to murder Yue Gongzi, the slave and maid were wronged, and I begged the lord to investigate! ”

The maid bowed down again, tears streaming down her cheeks, and pleading bitterly, as if she had been taken advantage of.

But no one saw the indifference and calmness in her eyes, and she said everything coherently and clearly, and there were other maids to testify, and others did not believe it.
