Just when Cheng Shi was thinking like this, she saw a female official dressed in green suddenly appeared at the corner of the verandah not far away, which looked a little familiar, and Cheng remembered that she had been following the eldest princess.

The female official stopped when she reached the corner of the corridor, and saluted Cheng from a distance, but she had no intention of continuing forward, as if she was waiting for someone to pass.

When Guo Bing saw it, he didn't need to be reminded by Cheng, he walked over quickly with the maid, said a few words to the female official, and then turned around.

Cheng Shi kept looking at her, and as soon as she approached, he immediately asked, "But the eldest princess knows?" ”

At this moment, she still had a bit of luck in her heart, hoping that the eldest princess could come forward to suppress it, and it was best to think of a way to send the people from the mansion away.

However, Guo Bing's answer disappointed her.

"Your Highness has already left early." Guo Bing replied, his face was still calm: "His Royal Highness asked this female official to come over to say hello, saying that she was not feeling well and had to go back to rest." ”

It's clear that I don't want to care about it.

Cheng stood for a while, sighed, and patted Guo Bing's hand: "I can still see it." ”

Guo Bing was also quite unhappy in his heart, but at this time, he didn't have time to sigh.

She raised her eyes and looked around, but saw a group of female dependents gathered around to watch the excitement, and there were also women who called the maids to say goodbye, the eldest sister-in-law Xia stood by the water's edge with a pale face, looking stunned, she was surrounded by several wives, it seemed that she was going to leave early, but Xia was obviously a little nervous, and it was very difficult to cope.

After thinking about it, Guo Bing whispered to Cheng: "Mother, since the people from the government are here, I am afraid that they will soon enter the garden to investigate the case." According to her daughter's shallow opinion, it is better to send the guest as soon as possible, so as not to bump into someone's girl and wife and make jokes. ”

As she spoke, she pointed to the water's edge again, and said softly: "And here, you should also use a curtain to fence it off, and then ask my mother to send someone to the courtyards to spread a message, restrain those little girls, and don't run around." In addition, Jiuhua Temple, we also donated a lot of silver, mother can call someone in advance to send a letter, in case something is really fished out of the water, it is also good to invite a few monks to come over to do a dharma, super crossing. ”

In a few words, everything was properly arranged.

Cheng couldn't help nodding while listening, and then took Guo Bing's hand and said, "I'm still sensible, just follow your method." I'm very panicked at this time, not very energetic, I'll ask your sister-in-law to accompany me back in a while, you guys work harder, just greet the guests for your mother. ”

Guo Bing hurriedly responded, called the servants and ordered them one by one, while Cheng walked to Xia's side with an ugly face and called Xia, who was also pale, away.

While they were busy arranging everything, Chen Ying had already walked up to Mrs. Xu and said softly: "Grandmother, this matter may have to be delayed for some time to be disposed of, and my granddaughter is afraid that she will return home later. ”

"Grandmother saved." Old Madam Xu nodded, and caught a glimpse of the Wang sisters standing outside the crowd at the end of her eyes, and there was a faint smile on her face, which seemed to be quite approving: "You two children are very righteous, and when you have a few days to be free, you invite them to come to the house to play." There are a lot of flowers blooming in our garden, too. ”

When Chen Ying heard this, he was stunned for a while, and then he lowered his head and said, "Grandmother Mingjian." The granddaughter got it. ”

Old Madam Xu is indeed an old man, and she can see through the trick between Chen Ying and the Wang sisters at a glance.

Indeed, it was Chen Ying who sent a letter to the sisters of the Wang family, asking them to send someone to the government to report the case, which attracted the officials of the government office.

Human life is at stake, how can it be child's play?

Chen Ying would never allow Xingjibo Mansion to find a reason to be vague, so he would report to the government and put the matter on the bright side.

Only then will she have a chance to find out the truth.

"What about your two girls?" Old Madam Xu asked again at this time, and looked at her side.

Chen Ying knew that the old man was asking for truth and knowledge, so he lowered his voice and said, "Go back to grandmother, I just ordered them to do something, and they will come back later." ”

Zhishi was responsible for running errands and passing on the news, but as for finding the truth, Chen Ying sent her to find out the news.

The corpse sank underwater for several months, but no one cared about it, so it can be seen that the deceased must have a low status, and it is very likely that he was a slave of Xingjibofu. And if you want to inquire about the news of the servants, it is naturally most appropriate to let the people who are also servants inquire.

In addition, Chen Ying was also worried that the Bofu would strictly order the people under him to shut up later, so he called Xun Zhen to ask in advance in order to get as much first-hand news as possible.

When Mrs. Xu heard this, a trace of worry appeared on her wrinkled face, and she said slowly: "Your two girls are too young, I'm afraid they won't be able to stand it, so let's do it, grandmother will leave you another hand, with her, you also have more arms here." Without waiting for Chen Ying to answer, she nodded and summoned a mother who was dressed up very neatly, and said, "You stay with the three girls." ”

The mother was busy, and Mrs. Xu whispered a few words to her again, as if telling her what to do.

Just as the two of them were talking, the Shen family finally couldn't hold it back, and quietly stepped in front of Chen Ying, blinking a pair of shining eyes, and asked, "Three girls, do you really want to stay here and look at the dead?" ”

"Yes, Aunt Three." Chen Ying gave an affirmative answer, and then explained: "Because the niece is entrusted by His Majesty, this kind of case in the inner house is to be investigated in detail, and this observation of the corpse is the first step, and the next step is to ......."

"Ahh Before she finished speaking, Shen Shi had already covered her nose and shouted exaggeratedly: "Why don't you like pickles?" I've heard that the corpse has been soaked in water for months, so it can't be rotten? What's so good about that? ”

Chen Ying couldn't answer this, so she had to be silent.

Xu Shi also walked over at this time, gently took her hand, Qingli's face was kind and worried, and said softly: "Three girls, you should be careful in everything." ”

Old Madam Xu is afraid that she will not ask the elders to stay, Xingjibo Mansion is too sensitive (ah) feeling, and the Guogong Mansion should stay out of the matter as much as possible to show that it is not the driving force behind it.

Chen Ying understood what Mrs. Xu meant, and also thought that there was no problem with her disposal.

She raised her eyes and glanced behind Xu, and then asked with some concern, "What about the big sisters?" I didn't see them just now. ”

When Xu Shi heard this, his face changed slightly, and he lifted the handkerchief and wiped the corners of his lips in disguise, and said in a harmonious voice: "A few of them blew the wind when they were swimming in the lake, and when they came back, they all said they had a headache, so I asked them to go to the car to rest first." ”

Chen Yi is in the critical period of discussing marriage, and it is indeed not appropriate to get into gossip or gossip.
