Chapter 40: Civil Strife

Ryu Jianren held the saddle made of brocade soft gold embroidery and trembled with anger. Who is so brainless to frame others and leave such obvious evidence? The ladies were soon invited to the hall, and each of them greeted the head of the family and took their seats in turn.

In fact, as soon as Liu Hongyu entered the hall, she saw the saddle that was thrown by her father at the foot of the table, she glanced at Liu Qingqing out of the corner of her eye, with a playful expression on her face, and did not speak.

Jin looked at her husband's unhappy face, and couldn't help asking, "Master, why did you call us over in a hurry?" ”

Liu Jianren took a sip of tea to suppress the fire, and said calmly: "The princess from the Heavenly Dynasty in the palace was in danger in the morning market yesterday and gave birth prematurely. ”

When Liu Qingqing heard the word premature, she jumped up from the wide stool excitedly and asked urgently, "What about her child, has it been saved?" Hmph, she can't even keep her own child, I see what kind of face she still has to dominate the princess's position! ”

The more Liu Qingqing thought about it, the more excited she became, and she didn't notice that her father's face was hard to see at the moment.

"Qingqing, don't talk nonsense!" Jin listened to her daughter's more and more excessive, and hurriedly stopped her. Then she tentatively asked her husband, "Premature birth is also childbirth, and my lord called us here, but you want me to visit before preparing a gift?" ”

Liu Jianren shook his head, pointed to the saddle at the corner of the table, and shook his beard with anger, and said, "Look at that saddle, I don't know the thing that doesn't know whether it is dead or alive, take our Xiangfu to do it." Now the head of the Yu family has decided that it was our Liu Mansion who wanted to murder his wife and children! ”

Hearing this, Jin's face turned pale, she trembled and picked up the saddle, looked at the brocade soft gold embroidered smock, her face was even more difficult to look at, her legs were weak, and she knelt down and said: "Master, master, this matter has nothing to do with me and Qingqing!" We never thought of murdering the king's heir! Sir, you must save us! ”

Liu Jianren exclaimed angrily: "Now, people have put ironclad evidence here, how do you want me to excuse you?" Don't say it's me now, even the concubine can't help you. ”

Liu Qingqing snatched the saddle, took a closer look, and said, "How can my father convict me and my mother just by relying on a saddle?" This brocade soft gold embroidery was given to me and my mother by the concubine, but I ordered someone to cut my cloth into clothes and give it to my third sister! ”

Liu Hongbei, who was named, was so frightened that tears fell from her eyes, and she said in a trembling voice: "Father is clear, Hongbei doesn't dare to murder the prince's heir!" ”

Aunt Bai, who has always been submissive, saw that her youngest daughter was aggrieved, and also said: "My lord is clear, this red shell is still young, and she has no grievances with the princess, so there is really no reason to hurt the princess and the princess!" ”

Liu Qingqing's apricot eyes stood up, and she said sharply: "What does my aunt mean is that I have a holiday with that princess, and I deliberately murdered the princess?" ”

Looking at the hall of the Liu family, which was messed up in a pot of porridge, Liu Hongbao also knelt on the ground with everyone, although she didn't say a word, but her eyes were terrifying and cold when she looked at everyone. For a long time, there has always been only Qingqing in the eyes of his grandfather and father, and the Jin family naturally loves his biological daughter, and even his biological mother Bai is closer to the third sister. In this house, she is the only one who is loved and loved, and even her biological mother refuses to say a good word for herself. Now watching them accuse each other for self-preservation, she just feels enjoyable.

"Alright, shut up!" Liu Jianren stroked his forehead and drank, "Come on, you go to the ladies and ladies' houses separately, search for me, and bring me all the fabrics and products that you see in the brocade soft gold embroidery!" ”

Several maids and wives who were waiting there were all henchmen who served Liu Jianren, and they took their own orders. Half an hour later, several grandmothers who took the lead in the search came back one after another. They found brocade soft gold embroidery in the residences of Jin, Liu Qingqing and Liu Hongbei respectively. The whole piece of cloth in Jin's place has not been touched, Liu Qingqing has a long skirt embroidered with brocade and soft gold embroidery and cuts the remaining cloth, and Liu Hongbei has only found a piece of cloth embroidered with brocade and soft gold.

As a result, no matter who is convicted, the evidence is insufficient, and for a while, the public says that the public is justified, and the mother says that the mother is reasonable, and then falls into a senseless war of words.

Just when Liu Jianren had a headache, Liu Hongbao, who had been staying away, spoke, only to hear her say unusually calmly: "Father, since the brocade soft gold embroidery is only physical evidence. Then why don't you send a testimony to ask, since the Jade Princess happened in the morning market, presumably the deliberate murderer must go out of the house to plan this matter. It's not as good as ......."

Before she finished her words, Liu Qingqing suddenly thought of something, she staggered to Liu Jianren's knees, and shouted: "Father, father, for yesterday's family banquet, Liu Hongbao was late for no reason." It's her, she must have been stronger than her in order to get revenge on me, so she deliberately framed me for this, father! ”

Although Liu Jianren has always been partial to Liu Qingqing, her unfounded accusation at this moment also made him unbelievable. So, he scolded: "Ruby is also trying to figure things out, you have no beginning or end, what are you talking about, don't shut up quickly." Then, with a rare and pleasant face, he said to the eldest daughter with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes: "Hongbao, you go on." ”

Liu Hongbao said again: "Father, what Hongbao means is that since no one is willing to admit it, it is better to invite the guards guarding the door and ask who has been out of the house yesterday, wouldn't it be clear." ”

Liu Jianren nodded and said, "Okay, just do as you say." A few of you sisters retreat first, come on! Spread the guards who were on duty yesterday. ”

Liu Hongbao obediently retreated, and just a few steps out of the hall, she was dragged by Liu Qingqing, who was crazy, and she asked her sharply: "What are your intentions, why do you want to frame me?" ”

Liu Hongbao's eyebrows didn't turn, she broke free of her hand, and said coldly: "Where is the second sister, how can Hongbao be virtuous, how can she be the one who frames her sister?" ”

Liu Qingqing pointed to her nose and shouted: "You, you vicious woman, I know it's you, you must have been cruel to me." The ancients said, 'It was born from the same root, why is it too anxious to fry each other?' Today I just use this sentence to ask you, no matter how you say it, we are also sisters, I have to call you eldest sister, why did you harm me? ”

Liu Hongbao smiled coldly and said, "Hongbao is lowly, and I can't afford to be your eldest sister." ”

Liu Qingqing squinted her apricot eyes, trembling with anger, and pointed at her and said, "You, you ......"

Liu Hongbei, who came out in the end, watched the two sisters arguing from a distance, and hurriedly stepped forward to persuade: "The two sisters don't fight, my father and mother will definitely give everyone justice." If someone deliberately framed our Liu family, and saw us in such civil strife, wouldn't it be the pain of relatives and the enemy? ”

Liu Hongbao glanced at her and said coolly: "You can see it through." ”

Here, the three sisters of the Liu family are waiting in the ear room.

On the other side, Yanagi Jianren, his wife Jin, and his aunt Bai, interrogated the guards who were on duty at the gate of Liufu yesterday in the hall. The results came out quickly, and several guards said that at yesterday's Double Ninth Festival family banquet, no one else had ever left the house except for the second lady Liu Qingqing's personal maids, Hongguoer and Cherry.

Hearing this result, Liu Qingqing was shocked and angry, and suddenly turned his back on his breath and fainted.

Although Liu Jianren and the Jin family felt sorry for this daughter, they did not dare to openly oppose the Jade Mansion. had no choice but to send her back to the room, grounded first, and then make plans when she was better.
