The horror was like it spilled out of her bones, making her head tingle and her whole body stiff.

"Since you're still so hard-mouthed, then I'll barely answer your questions."

"Before that, I want to ask you a few questions about the maidservants and young ladies around you." After Xu Chu finished speaking, he took his eyes off her.

She looked at the maid kneeling beside Zhang Fu'er and asked, "When your young lady is playing hide and seek, can you follow closely?" ”

The maid glanced at Xu Chu cautiously, swallowed and shook her head, and said tremblingly: "In order to make the ladies have fun, we maids are waiting under the porch." ”

"At that time, did Miss Qiu and your Miss ever be together?"

"No, my young lady is the master, so everyone asked her to catch people first." When she said this, she paused, looked at Xu Chu nervously, then looked at her own young lady, and finally gritted her teeth and said, "And at that time, Miss and Miss Qiu were unhappy, and they didn't want to be with her at all." ”

Xu Chu saw Zhang Fu'er showing annoyance, and immediately turned his head to look at the young ladies further back.

"So what about you, during the whole process, did anyone see Miss Zhang and Miss Qiu?"

The few people who were questioned looked at each other, and said with a weak body: "No, but during this period, Sister Ran and I heard a cry of pain, as if it was the voice of the younger sister of the Qiu family. At that time, Sister Ran and I were worried that she had broken her foot or hid in a rockery cave and was bruised, so we went to check it out. ”

"When we were close to the entrance of the rockery, we happened to run into Miss Zhang. She was facing away from us, as if she was bending down to look inside. ”

Xu Chu bowed his head, and the last doubts in his heart were completely solved.

It turned out that the man did not want to throw the body, but was discovered before he could find the place where the body was hidden.

Then the three of you went out of the rockery to look for it, but found the unconscious Miss Qiu on the side of the rockery. Am I right? ”

The young ladies nodded again and again, not daring to hide it at all.

Xu Chu glanced at Zhang Fu'er, and saw that when she talked about Miss Qiu, her eyebrows drooped, although it was only for a moment, but it was enough.

"You hate Miss Qiu, why?"

Zhang Fu'er raised her head in amazement, and was about to refute, but saw that Xu Chu had already turned her head to look at the official behind her.

She looked calm, but she said something that made people scratch their heads, "Let people go around the rockery and go to the cave inside to find it carefully." Pay attention to the underside of the entrance, there should be a spot. ”

When they mentioned the rockery cave, Zhang Fu'er's hands supported on the ground subconsciously rubbed it. Then, he pursed the corners of his mouth nervously.

With accurate targets, several officials moved naturally and neatly. It only took a cup of tea to see them return in a hurry.

"Lord Wang, my lord, I found a bloody veil here." The chief official handed out the handkerchief and said solemnly, "In addition, the subordinates also found a man in the cave. Identified by his subordinates, he was the thief king dog in the city. ”

When he said this, the official was still full of disgust, and the two people who followed him also looked unlucky.

When Xiao Qinglang heard this, his brows furrowed, obviously he thought of a certain possibility. So, he asked in a cold voice, "Where is that person?" ”

As soon as he opened his mouth like this, someone naturally pushed the splash forward. But I saw that the skin was full of poisonous sores, and the form was very obscene.

At this time, when he saw such a battle, he had already shrunk back, and the whole person was incoherent, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing desperately.

"The big lord spares his life, the little one is only confused by a ghost for a while, and he will be bewitched. The little ones don't dare in the future, and they don't dare to covet the young lady in the house anymore. He covered his hands and cried bitterly, which made it unbearable to look at him directly.

Xiao Qinglang's face turned pale, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Who let you into the Liu Mansion?" ”

Liu's mansion, before today, was also the mansion of Liu Rangmo, the same person in Jinzhou City. Even if there is negligence, the subordinates will never let such a person enter the house. Especially when holding this kind of banquet, the only possibility is that he was specially brought in, and the target was directly for Xu Chu.

That gangster is a soft bone, he has always been a bully and afraid of hard, and he has never seen the world. When he hid in the rockery before, he saw the young lady of Liu's mansion ruthless, and he was already cowardly. Later, when he saw the man criing quietly in fright holding his neck, he had the thought of pity and pity the jade, and stepped forward to comfort the beauty.

In his opinion, the person who will be despised by Miss Zhang at will but dare not resist is at most a maid who is pampered/favored. Even if he really played with the maid, for the sake of business, Miss Zhang and the people in Liu's Mansion would not really treat him well.

His mind raced, looking at the lonely woman's delicate face and petite body, he couldn't help but feel lustful.

It's just that no one thought that the woman would scream, causing movement, and he was so frightened that he pushed the person out directly. Afterward......

Later, he watched as the woman's expression distorted, and her whole body fell to the ground straight, and finally lost her breath. He was so frightened that he left the place where he had originally discussed with the people of the Liu Mansion and hid in the cave, thinking that he would quietly escape when the people were quiet.

But who would have thought that before he could hide himself, he ran into Miss Zhang who wanted to enter the cave. Then, there were bursts of exclamations and scoldings from the officials.

made such a fuss, even if he was given a guts, he would not dare to come out.

"My lord, I was brought in by the housekeeper of the Liu family. He told me that he would hide on the side of the rockery and wait for his arrangement, saying that he would let me take the opportunity to marry a daughter-in-law. He banged his head, and he didn't need to be threatened by others to investigate it deeply, and he explained the ins and outs of the future clearly. The housekeeper said that the woman was the daughter of a lowly family who helped the Yamen perform the autopsy, and she was helpless and had no power. Because I offended Miss Zhang, I had to help rectify it a little. After the matter is completed, the adults will persuade her to marry the little one, and they will also give the little one a congratulatory gift of one hundred taels of silver......"

He snotted, knelt and cursed while wiping his tears: "It's the people of the Liu family, and it's all arranged by the Liu family." Otherwise, if you give the little ten bold sons, the little ones will not dare to go to the mansion of the Tongzhi Lord to do evil. ”

Xu Chu looked at Xiao Qinglang's face gloomy, and looked at Wang Gouzi as if he were looking at a dead man. She knew very well that it was probably because of her innocence that was involved, which made him angry in his heart.

But thinking of the right thing, she still took the lead in front of Wang Gouzi before Xiao Qinglang broke out, and cut off Xiao Qinglang's cold gaze at Wang Gouzi.

"You mean, you used to hide in a rockery?"

Wang Gouzi knelt down and begged for mercy for a long time, and finally heard a voice, and it was still a woman's voice, which made his horror a little less.

He nodded again and again, "The little one is hiding on the side of the rockery, and I saw with my own eyes that Miss Zhang wanted to strangle the maid in yellow." ”

"At that time, I was scared, so I didn't go out to stop it...... But later, when the little one found out that the maid was dead, he hid in the cave in a panic to save his life. "The oath he said was just an oath to the sky.

When Zhang Fu'er on the side heard this, she looked at Wang Gouzi in disbelief, and her heart was full of anger. But after facing everyone's suspicious eyes, she still argued sharply: "I didn't kill her, I just scared her." Who asked her not to do what she said, and she was crushed by that unlucky little slut in vain! It must have been you, who decided to kill her! ”

The obscure little slut in her words can make people think of who it is without inquiry. However, the prince didn't pursue it, and Miss Xu didn't care about it, and the people on the other side wouldn't rush to pick it up.

Xu Chu gave Xiao Qinglang a slightly calm look, and then quietly watched the embarrassed people in front of him start to bite each other.

"You are talking nonsense, I saw you kill with my own eyes, and your left hand was bitten by her. If you hadn't wrapped it in a veil, I'm afraid it would have bled out. Wang Gouzi smacked her and scolded, "What kind of white and flawless lady should you be, the hideous and hateful look behind your back is really disgusting." ”

After he finished speaking, before the official could speak, he pounced directly on Zhang Fu'er. At this time, he couldn't care about the filth and smell on Zhang Fu'er's body, so he directly pulled her sleeve and tore it open.

Sure enough, everyone saw that there were two rows of embossing under the sleeve. Although it no longer oozes blood, it is still shocking on the white and tender arm.

At this point, there is no need to say more. Xiao Qinglang made a gesture, and a guard took the blood-stained handkerchief and sent it to the lady who was playing with Zhang Fu'er for identification.

A lady and his wife all pointed out that the handkerchief was used by Zhang Fu'er. And the maid beside her also whispered: "This is indeed my young lady's handkerchief, and the young lady's maiden name is Fu'er, so there will be more hibiscus on each corner of the handkerchief......

Speaking of this, Zhang Fuer simply knelt on the ground and said justifiably: "I used to play with my sisters, but when I got up, my sister of the Zhen family pretended to bite me. At that time, I did not cry out in front of people. But it was later discovered that there was blood on his arm. ”

Miss Zhen, who was named by her, suddenly looked up and looked at her in surprise, as if she didn't expect her to pour such dirty water on her head.

You know, even if you can't implicate yourself in a homicide. But once it spreads, the fake image of his own honey-bellied sword, or secretly hurting others because of jealousy, will also make his reputation plummet.

The most taboo thing for a woman, especially a woman like her who is in the middle of a marriage, is to have her reputation damaged.

She looked at Zhang Fu'er angrily, gritted her teeth and said, "Zhang Fu'er, how can you slander me like this!" At that time, so many sisters watched, how could I bite you to bleed! After speaking, she turned her head to look at Xu Chu, and said with a deep expression, "If the girl doesn't believe it, she can ask others, but if she has a trace of abnormality at that time, how can others not find out?" ”
