Chapter 144: Making a big fuss
When the subordinates saw the prince suddenly appear, they pulled Song Wu'er all the way out, and they retreated one after another. Some saw it and hurriedly ran to Zhao's yard to report.
"Can you go slower? I'm about to fall, and if you go on like this, you're in prison, and my father and mother haven't caught up. ”
Since Lou Lichen knew what was going on, if she didn't expose it just now, she must be afraid that Chu Xun'er would intercede and conceal it, and since she wanted to make trouble, she would make trouble in front of Song Shoufu.
Lou Lichen's footsteps really slowed down.
is worthy of being ruthless Lou Lichen, how could he let go of the other party so easily, it seems that he can watch a good show for a while.
Sure enough, she heard the voices of Song Shipu and Zhao from afar, Song Wu'er glanced back, the second elder was out of breath, Song Wu'er was very distressed when she saw it, she twisted her head back and waited for Lou Lichen to take a look.
"Look at your bad idea, is it easy for my father!"
Lou Lichen smiled innocently, "Without a dose of fierce information, how could Shoufu and Mrs. Shoufu notice that someone in the Song Mansion wanted to harm their grandson, I am doing this for their good." ”
After speaking, he let go of Song Wu'er's hand, turned around and waited for Song Shipu and Zhao.
The two were still panting when they arrived, and Song Wu'er hurried to help them calm down. Over there, Song Xuye pulled Chu Xun'er over, and there were people behind him who pressed Mei Xiang. Song Wu'er's eldest brother and sister-in-law didn't come, they should be unwell.
Finally relieved, Song Shipu asked anxiously: "When did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come, why did you send the old minister's daughter to prison?" ”
Lou Lichen pointed at Chu Xun'er and said confidently: "Your second young grandmother of the Song Mansion caught Song Wu'er's maid poisoning the pregnant young grandmother, and this palace feels that Song Wu'er is about to marry into the prince's mansion, and she can't act arbitrarily, so this palace will send him to prison, teach her a lesson, and let her have a long memory." ”
Chu Xun'er was so frightened that she retreated again and again, and in the face of her husband's questioning gaze, she asked her subordinates to escort Song Wu'er's maid over.
Zhao knew that Lou Xingzhen almost lost the child, this incident happened yesterday, and she only knew that it was because of a pot of flowers, and she handed it over to Chu Xun'er to investigate.
Hearing that it was Wu'er's maid who sent it over, Zhao's face was a little not good, Song Wu'er likes to dig some wild flowers and weeds in the garden of the Song Mansion and plant them back, and everyone in the house knows about it.
She had just returned from Lou Xingzhen, and before she even had time to drink her saliva, she heard the next person say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was going to send Song Wu'er to prison, and she was so frightened that she almost fainted.
"There must be some misunderstanding in the middle, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't know, Wu Er likes her sister-in-law the most, she is always with her when she is afraid that she will be bored, and she will be given any good things as soon as possible, how can it harm her?"
Lou Lichen nodded matter-of-factly, "This palace also thinks so, so I want to hand it over to the group of people in the Criminal Department to investigate, rest assured, no matter whether this matter is true or not, this palace will not give her a letter of resignation." ”
Don't you keep talking about it! Do you like to give the book of resignation, anyway, the two of them were originally pretended!
Song Wu'er lowered her head, so angry that her chest rose and fell violently. Everyone thought that Song Wu'er was so scared that she secretly cried.
Song Shipu stood up and bowed neatly to His Royal Highness the Prince, "His Royal Highness the Prince, this matter is a family matter of our Song family, leave it to the old minister to investigate, and I will definitely give His Royal Highness the Crown Prince a satisfactory answer." ”
"Okay, check it now, this palace is watching, don't cheat, and if you find it, you will be severely punished!"
Zhao was not so panicked in her heart, she knew that her daughter would never harm Lou Xingzhen, but she was afraid that she would be unintentionally or harmed by the maid.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, let's go to the main house to talk!"
A group of people turned around and walked towards the main house, Zhao glanced at the maid, and inadvertently saw Chu Xun'er's chaotic eyes, and suddenly had a bottom in his heart, who cares so much about Lou Xingzhen's child, of course it is Chu Xun'er!
If Xuchang has no children, then there is no reason for the Song Mansion to fall into the hands of Xuchang, once Lou Xingzhen gives birth to the eldest grandson, then they have no hope.
Hasn't Chu Xun'er always been interested in the position of the first assistant? Why did you suddenly change your hexagram? And by the way, slander her daughter?
Linking Song Wu'er and Chu Xun'er together, Zhao suddenly figured it out, but it was really a plan to kill two birds with one stone, and it hurt Lou Xingzhen's child again, and helped her sister get angry.
Chu Xun'er, who was walking at the back, was about to cry, this plan was just a temporary reminder for her, it was not particularly perfect, just to teach Song Wu'er a lesson, and now I just hope that the maid will not be discovered.
Entering the main house, Lou Lichen should have sat in the right seat, Song Wu'er looked at the corners of his mouth twitched, although he said that he was his prince, he was the biggest,
But his father can be regarded as the prince's father-in-law, so he sat down without asking.
Song Shipu didn't care, in his eyes, there was only a distinction between monarchs and ministers.
Mei Xiang was pushed by the two mothers-in-law and fell in front of everyone, she witnessed what happened just now, she was stupid and was framed, but the young lady can't be sent to prison.
Her life is small, but once she is sent to prison, she has a criminal record, and the young lady will be the crown princess immediately, and she will probably be the queen in the future, so she must not let such a thing happen.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, this matter is done by me alone, and it has nothing to do with Miss Song and my mother."
Song Wu'er, who was standing in front of Lou Lichen, originally planned to watch a good show, but she didn't expect Mei Xiang to admit her mistake, she was a little anxious, this maid was just for herself not to be wronged, but she couldn't take the blame casually, this would be a loss of life.
Song Wu'er wanted to give Lou Lichen a look, but Lou Lichen didn't look at himself at all, he didn't seem to accept this result, and was leisurely drinking tea.
Seeing everyone looking at him, he put down the teacup and asked with a puzzled expression, "What do you think I do?" I've dealt with a lot of cases, it's better not to be hasty in this small case, didn't this maid just say that there was a maid named Xi'er who instructed her to do it? Why did you leave that maid out? ”
Hearing Xi'er's name, Zhao's face turned completely black, and it was really Chu Xun'er.
Song Shipu didn't know much about the affairs of the backyard, but he knew that this matter would definitely not be something that a maid wanted to do by herself, and it was definitely ordered by someone. As for this Xi'er, whose maid is it?
"Come on, bring this maid named Xi'er over!"
The movement just now was so big, it's hard for anyone not to know about it. Xi'er had already remembered to turn around at the door, for fear that she would be pulled out.
Song Shipu's deep voice in the house could be heard outside the house, and when Xi'er heard her name, she was paralyzed to the ground in fright, until someone put her inside.
As soon as Xi'er entered, she began to kowtow to Lou Lichen and beg for mercy, "His Royal Highness the Prince, I don't know anything about this matter, I don't know why Mei Xiang wants to hurt me, I have followed Mother Lin in the kitchen to go out to buy in the past two days, and I am not in the house at all." ”
"Bengu hasn't said what is going on, how do you know so clearly? You shouldn't have been there just now, right? Could it be eavesdropping on the corner? ”
Song Wu'er finally found out where Lou Lichen's mouth was poisonous, every time he spoke, he always didn't leak, and he didn't give the other party a chance to escape, forcing the other party to have nothing to say.
"The slave maid helped the second young grandmother to check it together, so I know better. When I saw Mei Xiang just now, I knew that it must be this matter. ”
Lou Lichen then asked, "Didn't you just say that you went out to purchase in the past two days?" Why did you accompany the second young grandmother of the Chu family to check again, when did you come back? Do you want to come back as soon as this maid is done committing the crime? ”
Xi'er's eyes glanced left and right, and she tried her best to hint that the more she was at this time, the more she couldn't be nervous, but her body just shook involuntarily, and a bead of sweat fell from her forehead and dripped down her face onto the stall.
"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, it's like this, the people go out to buy ingredients during the day and come back in the evening. Yesterday, the slave came back to see the second young woman
Grandma was running around for the things in the house, and she didn't care about dinner, so she accompanied the second young grandmother to check it out, thinking that one more person would have more strength, and she only found out this morning. ”
Lou Lichen looked suddenly enlightened, "Oh, so that's the case, this palace is just curious, Shoufu will continue to investigate the case!" ”
The seemingly unintentional episode actually caused waves in the hearts of Song Shoufu and Zhao, the maid's every move was under everyone's noses, Song Shoufu officialdom for many years, although he had not personally investigated the case, but he was also flexible, not to mention Zhao, he knew everything about the battle in the back house.
The most important thing is that Song Xuye, who is a third-class and first-class guard, even if he doesn't understand the grievances in the backyard, his brain should react when he sees this.
"Mei Xiang, the master will uphold justice for you, if you don't want to hurt your young lady, if you don't want to hurt your mother, tell the truth honestly!"
Zhao gave Mei Xiang a reassuring look, and after Mei Xiang realized this look, she hurriedly refuted.
"Just now, the slave maid was afraid that the Song Mansion would be embarrassed, so she had to deceive His Royal Highness the Prince, and the slave maid was willing to be punished, but Xi'er was indeed in the house yesterday, and she also asked the slave maid to send a pin of incense to the eldest lady. The slave and maid don't read much, and they don't know that this flower can't be smelled by pregnant people, and the slave and maid are stupid, framed by adulterers, and voluntarily take the board. ”
Song Wu'er stood up anxiously, "It's not your fault, what board did you get?" You're not a man's family, can you stand thirty boards? ”
Zhao pulled Song Wu'er to his side, "Wu'er, you calm down first, let your father check carefully, the Song Mansion will not punish people for no reason." ”
Xi'er suddenly pointed to a person behind her and said, "Master, this is Mother Lin from the big kitchen, we went out together yesterday, and the guards at the door can also prove that we are out of the house." ”
Chu Xun'er stepped forward and explained: "Mei Xiang has always said that Xi'er instructed her, so the daughter-in-law has already interrogated Xi'er, and she has also asked this Mother Lin and the guards at the door, and the two of them did go out of the house together yesterday." ”
Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the old man were there, Mother Lin was already so frightened that the three souls and seven spirits flew away, and when she heard her name, she quickly knelt down and stammered: "Yes, it's an old slave... The old slave went out with her, her, and her. ”
Mei Xiang was immediately deflated when she heard this, they all colluded, who else could do anything.
