The cell was busy.

Many jailers ran over, surrounding the jailer who was bleeding from the seven orifices.

"The food is poisonous, someone wants to kill it, go and inform the adults!"

“……”

Xia Zhi's whole body was cold, and he looked blankly at the jailer on the ground who was bleeding and dying, and his death was terrifying, panicked, afraid, trembling all over, and his brain was blank.

After waiting for a long time, Ge Zhongchuan, the waiter of the Criminal Department, hurriedly came with a solemn expression, and asked the dead jailer to be carried away and the food on the ground to be checked.

Xia Zhi hugged her knees tightly with both hands, rested her head on her knees, and her body trembled more and more.

She has done so many things for the eldest lady, and the eldest lady is unexpectedly, she wants to kill her.

The family of the deceased Xia Steward in the Prime Minister's Mansion is his father and younger brother?

Xia Zhi hugged herself tightly, grabbed the hem of her skirt with her hand, bit her lip, and tears fell down one by one......

I don't know how long it took, the cell door opened again, and Xia Zhi was dragged away by the jailer and changed to another cell.

A variety of torture instruments in the cell.

Xia Zhi was tied to a pillar.

Not long after, Ge Zhongchuan came, with a calm face and a majestic voice, "Xia Zhi, this official asked you, who instructed you to falsely accuse the second lady of the Huo family of murder?" Have you offended anyone? Do you know who will poison you? ”

Xia Zhi looked in a trance and said with difficulty, "My lord, the slave maid heard from the jailer before that there was a murder on the outskirts of the city, and the family of the Prime Minister's Mansion Xia Steward died, is it true?" ”

Ge Zhongchuan frowned, and said in a deep voice, "What do you do when you ask about irrelevant matters?" Answer the officer's question! ”

"My lord, is Steward Xia's family really dead?" Xia Zhi muttered, "This is very important. ”

Ge Zhongchuan pursed his lips, "Well, it's dead, Steward Xia's son accidentally drowned, and Steward Xia's husband and wife jumped into the river to save their son, and they both drowned." ”

"Accident...... Drown...... Heh......" Xia Zhi smiled sadly and bitterly, her father and younger brother would be able to float, how could they be drowning.

So ruthless, so ruthless......

"Xia Zhi, if you don't explain honestly, don't blame the official for serving the punishment!" Ge Zhongchuan said in a deep voice, giving the jailer a look, "Go up!" ”

"My lord, I'll recruit, I'll recruit ......"

Ge Zhongchuan frowned, "Say!" ”

Xia Zhi said slowly, "My lord, the slave maid was originally the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and her parents were the descendants of the Meng family, and they were in charge of other villages.

Six years ago, the slave maid was transferred from Biezhuang to serve by the eldest lady by the housewife.

The eldest lady likes the prince of the royal prince and is dedicated to marrying into the prince's mansion, but the prince of the prince has a marriage contract with the second miss of the Huo family.

The eldest lady assigned a task to the slave maid, let the slave and maid sell themselves to the general's mansion as slaves, find a way to get close to the second miss of the Huo family, and induce the second miss of the Huo family to leave the mansion.

The slave maid entered General Huo's mansion, because she was a newcomer, she couldn't serve her master closely, so she could only be a sweeping maid.

The old lady of the Huo family is not in good health, Miss Huo Er takes care of Mrs. Huo every day, and the slave maid has thought of many ways, but she can't get close to Miss Huo Er.

So, the slave maid said to the maid who had dealings with the house that the Buddha enshrined in the Shuiyue Nunnery was particularly effective, and going to the Shuiyue Nunnery to pray for blessings could help the patient accumulate blessings and seek a long life.

Within a few days, Miss Huo Er mentioned to the general's wife that she wanted to go to Shuiyue Nunnery to pray for Mrs. Huo.

As soon as Miss Huo Er left the house, the slave maid sent someone to inform the eldest lady.

The next thing is arranged by the eldest lady.

After about half a month, Miss Huo Er returned from Shuiyue Nunnery.

The eldest lady sent a message to the slave maid again, asking the slave maid to pay attention to Miss Huo Er's monthly letter.

For a whole month, Miss Huo Er's letter had not arrived, and the slave maid truthfully reported to the eldest lady.

On the day of Miss Huo Er's wedding, the royal prince's palace made a difficulty, questioning Miss Huo Er's innocence, and at the same time questioning that Miss Huo Er was pregnant, so there was a later divorce.

Miss Huo Er went away and returned for nearly six years.

The reason why the slave maid framed Miss Huo Er was because of the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, that is, the current princess of the imperial prince.

Because Miss Huo Er offended the second Miss of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the princess took the lead for her sister.

That's what the slave knows. ”

Ge Zhongchuan sighed in his heart, he didn't expect that the gentle and dignified princess would do such a vicious thing.

"The princess of the Royal Prince's Mansion murdered the second miss of the Huo family, can the Nie family be involved?"

Xia Zhi shook her head, "The slave doesn't know, it's just that the eldest lady of my family and the second miss of the Nie family are cousins, and they will give advice to each other." ”

“……”

Across the wall, Huo Yubai sat in a wheelchair, and together with Si Jingmo, quietly listened to Xia Zhi's confession.

The mastermind is Meng Qiwei, Huo Yubai was not surprised at all, and had a guess earlier.

For the sake of a man, he went to great lengths to destroy another innocent woman, and this kind of vicious heart is terrifying.

You must know that Meng Qiwei six years ago was only 14 years old, and she had a bad stomach at a young age.

Si Jingmo's deep eyes looked at Huo Yubai, the three words "Shuiyuean" evoked his memories, and he suddenly felt that Huo Yubai's face seemed to have been seen six years ago.

However, he confirmed that the woman was dead.

He was full of anger after being calculated, and he didn't care about the woman, but just let people dig a pit at random and bury the woman.

After returning home, he was drunk.

Then, on the second day, I learned about Rujin's death, like a thunderbolt from the sky...... I couldn't take care of the dead woman even more.

I didn't hear that there was a woman missing in Suigetsuan, and that incident passed like that, but I dreamed about it at midnight, and I remembered it occasionally.

"The second lady was calculated in Shuiyue Nunnery, do you know who is the one who spoils your innocence?" Si Jingmo asked in a low voice, feeling a little nervous in his heart.

Huo Yubai shook his head, and was asked by him about the destruction of his innocence at the beginning, and his heart was inexplicably bitter, "I was in a daze at the time, I don't remember." ”

Si Jingmo pursed his lips, his expression complicated, "It's this king who is abrupt, it's not your fault, there's no need to be sad." ”

Huo Yubai smiled, "It's okay, it's all over, the matter involves the princess of the Royal Prince's Mansion, how should King Jing deal with this matter?" ”

"The wicked should be punished, it's just ......" Si Jingmo paused, his mood was a little heavy, "Some bad rumors about the second miss are just rumors, if the news of the princess's murder of the second miss spreads, it will be confirmed that you are not innocent, and you will ...... when the time comes."

"It's okay." Huo Yubai smiled lightly, "I've heard too much gossip, it doesn't matter if I have more, I just hope that the person who harmed me will get the punishment he deserves."

It's just that Meng Qiwei is now the princess, and she only has Xia Zhi's confession, so I'm afraid she won't be punished. ”

"This king will take care of it." Si Jingmo pushed Huo Yubai out of the cell, thinking about the grave in the mountain behind Shuiyue Nunnery.

He wanted to check it out.

I wonder if there are any bones in the mound.

"By the way, Second Miss, do you remember what day you had an accident at Shuiyue Nunnery?"

"The ninth day of the ninth month of September, the Double Ninth Festival."
