"Third Miss, the slave really didn't deliberately set the fire, but accidentally knocked over the oil lamp, begging the third lady to spare her life!"

The maid cried so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, and she pounced at Ye Zhiwei's feet, and raised her hand to pull Ye Zhiwei's clothes.

Mi Mama's hand was quick, kicked her hand away, and scolded: "Don't look at what you are, the third lady is also your slave to touch!" ”

Ye Zhiwei stood there calmly, as if she was ignoring the crying maid in front of her.

"Oil lamps? Since you said it was unintentional, then let's talk about it, how did it cause this fire? ”

Ye Zhiwei asked this kung fu, and on the side of the courtyard, Ye Yaoqin walked out with her personal maid.

As soon as the maid saw Ye Yaoqin arrive, her heart suddenly calmed down, and said: "The slave maid is on night duty, and there seems to be a figure here, so she came to check with a lantern, but she didn't expect a miss, broke the oil lamp, and the flames rushed to the door of the warehouse, and the result was ......a fire."

"It turned out to be an accident." Without waiting for Ye Zhiwei to speak, Ye Yaoqin preemptively said, "It's hard for her to be loyal, I was worried about the third sister's belongings, but I didn't expect that God has no eyes, and the disaster is not alone." ”

The implication is that you deserve to burn these things!

Ye Yaoqin smiled happily, when Ye Zhiwei asked people to carry things to the empty warehouse at night, she sent a maid to notice, and when they were all asleep, she secretly sent someone to throw the oil lamp through the window, which caused the fire.

What she can't get, no one can think of.

Ye Zhiwei looked at Ye Yaoqin coldly, but instructed the mother-in-law beside her, "Go, drag this maid to the courtyard and reward fifty boards." ”

"Yes." The two mothers-in-law came forward and grabbed the maid and dragged her to the yard.

The maid was frightened, originally she thought that Ye Yaoqin was here, and Ye Zhiwei would not cross her master to punish her no matter what.

"Ye Zhiwei, this is my yard, she is my subordinate, even if you want to be beaten and punished, at least you have to ask me what I mean first, right?" Ye Yaoqin said angrily.

Ye Zhiwei sneered, "Since my cousin can't manage people, I, as a younger sister, naturally want to protect you, like this Diao slave who is full of lies, you will even believe it, and today I will reluctantly help my sister let out this evil breath!" She waved her hand, "Hit me!" ”

The two mothers-in-law originally knew some martial arts, picked up the board to whirl the wind, and only when the two boards went down, the maid's ass was purple.

"Miss...... Miss, save the slaves, miss...... The slave and maid do what you want...... "The maid shouted loudly and lowly, and the movement was particularly harsh to hear in the courtyard at night.

Ye Yaoqin's face gradually turned white.

She didn't expect Ye Zhiwei to care about her face, the maid was at her behest and set the fire, but how could she admit it.

Thinking of this, Ye Yaoqin shouted angrily, "Come on, someone will block this girl's mouth for me, no wonder my sister is angry, how can this mouth bite people indiscriminately, the good things you have done have to rely on Miss Ben's head." ”

Pity that maid, she did something for her master, but in the end, not only did she not even fall behind, but she was gagged by Ye Yaoqin, and she couldn't even beg for mercy.

The board flew up and down, and after only twenty strokes, the flesh and blood were blurred.

Ye Zhiwei looked at the board, and somehow, suddenly remembered that during the day, the wind and twilight cold during the noon gate prison came, and she couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart, it seems that the two of us are really destined to play the board.

After forty boards, the maid had already fainted.

Ye Zhiwei asked her mother-in-law to stop.

"Who else is on duty tonight? Stand up. Ye Zhiwei's gaze swept over everyone again.

This question made everyone stunned.

What's going on? Didn't you finish playing the board just now, why do you still have to ask whose night duty is, do you have to track it down......

Ye Yaoqin said unhappily on the side, "Third sister, this beating has also been beaten, and the scolding has been scolded, it is better to hurry up and see if your objects have been burned, and you will enter the palace to thank you the day after tomorrow, if it burns out something, you must also get an idea in advance, so as not to blame the emperor." ”

Ye Zhiwei squinted at Ye Yaoqin, with some sarcasm in her tone, "I understand my cousin's concern, but the slave didn't tell the truth at all just now, so I naturally have to investigate, otherwise when the emperor asks, I will always have to deal with it." ”

After speaking, she looked at everyone again, "Everyone on night duty should stand up for me quickly, lest everyone have to eat the board with you." ”

At this time, a mother-in-law pointed to the side and said, "Tonight is how many nights they are on duty." ”

Ye Zhiwei looked over, the four people turned white with fright, they saw the tragic situation of the maid being beaten just now, and no one wanted to be beaten like that.

"Miss, please say a few good words for the minions." Everyone went towards Ye Yaoqin.

Ye Yaoqin didn't expect Ye Zhiwei to be so difficult to speak, so she didn't let go of the reason, and she didn't even say hello to her people in front of her.

"Third sister, you keep saying that the maid didn't tell the truth, how can you distinguish the truth from the fake?"

Ye Zhiwei smiled disdainfully, "Cousin really doesn't know? She came to the burned-out storehouse and pointed to the wooden doorway, "She said that she had accidentally knocked over the oil lamp, but if the fire was started from here, why was it the inside of the door that was blackened?" ”

Only then did everyone see that the door of the storehouse was only blackened on the inside, but there was no black ash on the outside.

"Or are your oil lamps here so magical that they can walk through the door?"

"This ......" Ye Yaoqin had thought about so many questions before, but now she was speechless when asked by Ye Zhiwei.

It's just a fire, why is there so much attention.

Ye Zhiwei said to the maids and mother-in-law on duty at night: "You can expose each other, if anyone tells the real murderer, I will let her go, and I will reward her with ten taels of silver, if you don't want to be on duty in the house in the future, I will send her to the village to be a steward." ”

Those people were all stunned all of a sudden, could there be such a good thing?

"But if you all keep silent, then I will have to treat all of you as arsonists." Ye Zhiwei waved her hand, and the mother-in-law holding the board stepped forward viciously.

The few people shrank back in fright, "Three...... Third Miss, the slave knows who did it! ”

"Third Miss, the slave also knows ......"

Ye Yaoqin's face couldn't hold anymore, and she screamed: "Shut up for me!" ”

If these minions confessed to her in front of so many people, she would really have no face in this courtyard in the future.

"You don't do your best minions...... Ye Yaoqin pointed at them tremblingly, "Come on, all of them have blocked their mouths for me!" She exclaimed.

Several mothers-in-law were all people around Ye Zhiwei, and they all stood still when they heard this.

Ye Yaoqin only felt that her scalp was about to explode.

Ye Zhiwei stood there, looking at her, smiling with crooked eyes......
