Chapter 61: Murder by Rumors

It's these people, in normal times, especially some time ago, Princess Xu was sick, Xu Lan began to take charge, the big and small affairs in King Xu's mansion, they have always been well-behaved and sensible in front of Xu Lan, and there will definitely be no such thing, messing around and hating.

As for Xu Lan, she has always had a particularly good temper, and she did not punish the people in these mansions too much, and even, some of the subordinates have relatives at home who are sick, Xu Lan will generously give them vacations, and will also give them silver, so that they can grab some good tonics.

Xu Lan asked herself in her heart, she can't be said to be kind and virtuous to these subordinates, but she also has a clear conscience.

How do you know that once the sky changes, those people will not even listen to Xu Lan's explanation, they have already taken care of themselves, only seeing what they see with their own eyes, and only believing what they see, and they will press this murder charge on Xu Lan's head, as if they didn't know Xu Lan before and didn't accept Xu Lan's favor.

At this moment, there is only fanatical, inexplicable excitement in the eyes of these people.

Xu Lan felt that her internal organs were getting colder and colder, what Xu Lan was afraid of was not that she killed someone, and she would be killed to pay for her life, what Xu Lan was afraid of was this kind of rumor, this feeling that no one believed in herself, a person's words were like a knife, cutting it into pieces.

"No, don't talk nonsense, Miss is not that kind of person, he can't kill people at all, Miss and I were walking on the road, and suddenly we heard a scream, so we stepped forward to check, only to find this corpse!"

Just when Xu Lan was in a trance, Xu Lan suddenly saw the white bamboo in front of her, and resolutely stood up and yelled at those people outside.

"Can you think about it a little more, this girl is covered in scars all over her body, and she pulled it out with a whip, but don't you know what the young lady is capable of? How can Miss have so much strength to smoke a person to death, besides, you all know that Miss had a serious illness before, and now her body is still weak, and she still drinks tonic medicine every day, how can she kill someone! ”

Bai Zhu said this call, but it alerted those onlookers, "This is also true, this second young lady, usually soft and weak, if she stabbed this maid to death with a knife, I still have a little faith, but if you take a whip and beat a person to death, I still don't believe it." ”

"Don't talk about that, who said that she must have killed her, look at the maid next to her, what is that called Baizhu, I see this maid, she is in good health, if the second lady really wants to kill someone, how can she do it herself, watch by herself, and let her maid do it, isn't it the same?"

Baizhu was so angry that she was about to go crazy, she never thought that there would be someone who would be so indiscriminate and single-minded that her young lady would die!

"You are talking nonsense, I am asking you, if it was me and Miss who beat this girl to death, why are we in such an obvious place? Although the road is large and there are few people at night, if you want to kill someone, will you be on the side of the road? Shouldn't it be hiding in the house and quietly beating people to death? Are you stupid or am I stupid? ”

As soon as this sentence was spoken, there were more people who were thinking, and there were few people at that time, who kept shouting that it was Xu Lan who was the murderer.

Xu Lan looked at the maid in front of her, her weak back. But it was extraordinarily strong, Xu Lan couldn't help but feel a warmth in her heart.

Yes, if a maid can stand up bravely and clarify the facts for herself, as a young lady, how can she just shrink behind his back?

Xu Lan thought about it again, when they were walking on the road just now, Baizhu was also like this, and resolutely put herself behind her, but now Xu Lan already knows that no one can protect herself unconditionally and forever, and she should also make some efforts to let Baizhu know that the young lady she is protecting is not a cowardly and incompetent person!

Thinking about it like this, after understanding, Xu Lan has slowly cheered up, she is a strong woman after all, just now, she was shocked by the sudden and huge malice in this world, and next to her, there was a dead girl.

If Xu Lan herself is still like this, muddy, then next time, the corpse that dies here and lies down will be himself.

After Xu Lan calmed down, she began to think, what kind of process was all this happening today?

First of all, this person must be a person in this palace, he knows his whereabouts every day, and he also knows that tonight, he will definitely pass by this path, so he will put this woman's body on his own path in advance.

As for himself, will he not find this body because it is too dark at night?

I don't think so, because Xu Lan still remembers that the reason why they found this corpse in the first place was because they heard a miserable scream.

And this scream is the first step to attract them into the trap themselves.

After that, it was logical, and he stepped forward and found the corpse, because the corpse was placed with his back to him. So he will definitely stretch out his hand, and in this way, the person who has arranged this scene in advance will find that he is shouting out.

And then there came a multitude of people, who were witnesses to a tragedy.

As for the physical evidence, it is very simple, put the murder weapon in the grass next to it in advance, and then steal the bracelet around him, throw it aside, and logically, he has blocked all his roads, it is really a deep scheming, what a clever plan!

Although Xu Lan figured out this matter, she couldn't help but feel a wave of anger in her heart.

can not only know his whereabouts, steal his bracelet, but also kill a person, in such a populous palace, no one knows, or no one dares to say, this person, all the clues point to that, the most powerful person, that is, Xu Lan's father, the current Xu Wangye.

After thinking about all the things behind this, Xu Lan couldn't help but feel bitter in her heart.

She raised her head and looked at the crowd, her so-called father, only to see her father, pretending to frown tightly, staring at herself in the middle of the crowd.

Seeing his own eyes in the past, his father, the corners of his mouth even secretly flashed a smile, Xu Lan even felt that it was his own illusion, he didn't know if his father was smiling or not.

But all this is no longer important, listening to the noise in the crowd, Xu Wang Ye has already taken off the shelf to judge.

I only heard him say: "In any case, our house, in the end, there is still a death, not to mention the second miss, whether it is a murderer or someone framed, after all, I want to give you an explanation, after all, now the second miss is the biggest suspect, although I say that I am a prince, but I also know that there is still a blue sky above, I will definitely not protect my daughter, I think it is better than this, immediately go to the official, let the people of Dali Temple intervene in the investigation, I think Dali Temple, I will definitely give everyone a fair and innocent one. ”

When Xu Lan heard this, she thought in her heart, sure enough, this father of hers really can't tolerate herself, otherwise, how could she send herself to Dali Temple?

But he also saw that Xu Lan sneered, straightened his waist desperately, and said loudly to the crowd: "That's okay, I, Xu Lan, have always been upright and not afraid of shadows, I was framed today, and I will definitely not kill anyone, in this case, let Dali Temple return me a clean slate, but I still want to remind everyone that this huge Xu Wangfu has inexplicably killed a person, if I am the murderer, it will be fine, but if I am framed, then this murderer is someone else, I hope everyone takes care of themselves, as for killing a person and still being silent, naturally someone is secretly helping. And those who help secretly, you don't think that you are not the mastermind behind the scenes, you can escape, you know, Skynet is magnificent, negligent but not leaky, you have done too many bad things in life, I am afraid that after death, in hell, you will not be able to live well! ”

After saying this, the whole courtyard has been quiet, and the wind is blowing, but it shows a bit of treachery.

As soon as this sentence came out, it was really the person who was indiscriminate, noisy and shouting, and insisted that Xu Lan was the murderer, and he couldn't help but close his mouth.

It's a pity that the current situation is too unfavorable for Xu Lan. All he can do is to work hard to straighten his waist and maintain his last trace of dignity as the second miss of the Xu family.

Soon, the officials of Dali Temple had already received the report, and they hurried over, and after a cursory understanding of what happened, they directly detained Xu Lan.

Baizhu next to him, when he saw his young lady being put on the thick iron chain, he couldn't help but tears fell from his eyes.

"Miss, miss, let go of my young lady! My young lady is the most suitable and kind on weekdays, how can she kill someone! ”

But the officials of Dali Temple really won't listen to this kind of words, I saw an official hatefully push away Baizhu and said: "Presumptuous, the officials of Dali Temple handle the case impartially!" And waiting for civilians, how dare they make a mistake! ”

After these words were spoken, Baizhu's face turned pale, Xu Lan looked at the loyal maid next to him, he couldn't bear it, he said to Baizhu: "Don't worry, I didn't kill anyone, I'm sure I'll be fine, you better go back, take care of yourself, don't let people bully you." ”
