Qiao Chunlai pointed to Zirou underground and said, "He, he is the one who took away all my money with that stinky woman!" Qiao Chunlai said to Yuan Chengjun with a handful of snot and tears: "Ninth Master, my family has been a businessman for generations, and the business is all small business, I, Qin Chunlai, have been law-abiding all my life, how do I know that in old age, my aunt and wife actually hooked up with a man outside, and also plotted to rob my property, and now my aunt and wife died in the process of escaping, I didn't expect this little man to be alive, begging the Ninth Master to kill him for me!" ”

Yuan Chengjun didn't mean to listen to Qiao Chun say this, but he was wise for a while, and he was used to galloping on the battlefield, how could he think that now he ended up with an ordinary herb dealer, he didn't seem to be able to ask, after hesitating again and again, the housekeeper on the side dismissed some irrelevant people in the hall, and after leaving a few key people, the housekeeper said to Qiao Chun: "Qiao Chun, this time you are asked to see the ninth master, not to deal with the old and rotten things for your family, but we have something to ask you." ”

Qiao Chunlai hurriedly stopped crying and said, "Please ask." ”

The housekeeper said, "Was Mrs. Qiao once very good friends with Mrs. Yuan?" ”

When Qiao Chunlai heard this, he nodded without hesitation and said: "They are very good friends, from Monday to Saturday, they basically get together to play cards, and she and Mrs. Yuan spend more time together than at home." ”

The housekeeper said, "Since Mrs. Qiao and Mrs. Yuan are so familiar with each other, does Mrs. Yuan know about this little man?" ”

When asked about this matter, Qiao Chunlai was subconsciously silent, not as fluent as the previous answer, and the housekeeper saw that he was silent, and asked again: "Why don't you say it." ”

Qiao Chunlai lay on the ground again and stammered, "I—I don't know." ”

Although Qiao Chunlai said that I don't know, but his expression betrayed everything in his mouth, and for a while, the entire hall was frozen again, although some people stared at Qiao Chunlai, they didn't speak.

Qiao Chunlai saw that the situation was not right, he lay on the ground and cried and said, "Ninth Master! The little ones really don't know all this! You put the small one! ”

For Qiao Chunlai's shouting, Yuan Chengjun looked at him expressionlessly, and looked at him for a long time, Qiao Chunlai probably knew that he couldn't hide it, so he simply called out all the things and said: "There have been a few times, my aunt's wife and Mrs. Yuan have gone out a few times together, and both of them came home late at night, I didn't know about it at the time, and I didn't care about it, until my aunt's wife drowned, we dealt with her relics, and actually found something from her relics." Qiao Chunlai glanced at Yuan Chengjun cautiously, and only when he saw that his face was unchanged did he dare to continue: "But I didn't bring that thing at home." ”

The butler asked, "What is it?" ”

Qiao Chunlai didn't dare to speak.

Yuan Chengjun said: "Take someone to take the thing he said." ”

The housekeeper said yes, and then sent someone to Qiao Chunlai's house, and after twenty minutes, the servant of the Qiao family brought a thing, Qiao Chunlai did not dare to open it privately, but took it from the servant's hand, and knelt on it with both hands and said: "This is left by Mrs. Aunt, I always wanted to burn it at the beginning, but I still hesitated at the time, so I kept this thing until now, and asked the ninth master to take a look." ”

What Qiao Chunlai was holding in his hand was something like an account book, which could be said to be an account book, but it was not quite like an account book, and it was really difficult to tell what it was.

The housekeeper took the thing from Qiao Chunlai's hand, and then took it to Yuan Chengjun, Yuan Chengjun took it in his hand, opened the account book-like thing, and he looked at it carefully.

From the moment he opened the second page, his brows began to lock, his face was particularly ugly, the more he looked back, the calmness he had tried to maintain was finally not maintained, Yuan Chengjun's face changed drastically, and he smashed the ledger-like thing to the ground.

When Qiao Chunlai saw such a situation, he immediately lay on the ground and cried and said: "Ninth Master, I don't know if this thing is true or not, it was left by my aunt's wife, she has always had the habit of remembering these things, but many things are half-truths and half-truths, not necessarily true!" ”

No one knew what was going on, including the contents of the ledger.

Yuan Chengjun angrily yelled at Steward Zhou: "Drag that whore down for me!" Immediate execution! Instantly! ”

As soon as Yuan Chengjun's words came out, Wang Zhizhi, who was sitting there with the help of the maid, was paralyzed on the ground in fright after hearing Yuan Chengjun's words, she seemed to have not expected such a result, and immediately shouted: "Brother-in-law!" Ignoring the care of the maid and mother-in-law, she rushed over and knelt in front of Yuan Chengjun and cried and said: "Brother-in-law, you can't do this, you have so much husband and wife affection, how can you do it so hastily, my sister has hard work even if she has no merit in this family." ”

Yuan Chengjun heard Wang Zhizhi's hasty sentence, and suddenly sneered and asked, "Hasty?" Then he pointed to the ledger that he had thrown to the ground and said, "Go and see for yourself whether I have done something hastily or you have done it hastily." ”

After Yuan Chengjun finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to Wang Zhizhi, but walked to Yuan Lin who was kneeling there, he seemed to want to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, it became: "Drag that whore down, take her to Nanshan Temple for house arrest, and you are not allowed to go down the mountain until you die." ”

Wang Zhizhi's whole body softened, and with her, there was also the account book, on which some words were densely written, what was written, but it was not very clear, but it was also vaguely clear, it should be related to Mrs. Qiao and Wang Heqing.

When Wang Heqing was set up, people were already a little stupid and stupid, she looked around with blood on her face, as if she didn't know anyone, in that silly smile, when those soldiers carried her past Yuan Lin, she actually pushed the two soldiers with her backhand, and threw herself at Yuan Lin who was kneeling, she held Yuan Lin's face and said with a panicked face: "Son, you save your mother, don't go to Nanshan Temple, I don't want to go." ”

She was so frightened that the force in her hand almost deformed Yuan Lin's face, Yuan Lin let her hold his face for a while, and when the two soldiers were about to hold up Wang Heqing, Yuan Lin hugged Wang Heqing with his backhand, and he buried his face in her arms and cried bitterly.

Wang Heqing's body was stunned, the muscles of her face twitched slightly with Yuan Lin's cry, she seemed to want to hug Yuan Lin back, but her hand just moved a little, and the two soldiers forcibly dragged her out of Yuan Lin's arms, and then no matter how crazy she roared and struggled, Wang Heqing's body was more and more separated from Yuan Lin.

She kept looking back, stretched out her hand and screamed in horror: "Son! ”

But at this point, nothing can be done.

Immediately afterwards, Zirou, who was lying on the ground, was also dragged away, leaving me and Mu Jingchi, as well as Wang Zhizhi, Yuan Lin and Lin Wanwan, Lin Wanwan walked over and picked up the account book that fell at Wang Zhizhi's feet, she glanced at it, and put the account book down.

After Mu Jingchi put down the teacup in his hand, it didn't seem reasonable to sit here, he got up from the chair, and the maid also helped Wang Zhizhi up from the ground, Mu Jingchi walked in front of me, looked at me, didn't say anything, and left with someone.

After everyone left, I got up from the ground, picked up the account book and put it in my hand to take a look, which was densely packed with records of Wang Heqing and Zirou's dealings, when they met, what they said, and what clothes they worn, all of which were clear, and the person who recorded this book was really Mrs. Qiao.

Because this book is a long time ago, the timeline is still recorded from two years ago, even the ink on it is a little yellowed, even she and Wang Heqing just started to meet, what clothes they wore and what jewelry they worn, they were all recorded clearly, if this is to be forged, it is difficult to forge it, and the traces of time on this account book can't fool anyone at all.

No wonder Yuan Chengjun was in no mood to ask more questions after reading it, and directly convicted Wang Heqing, I sat there in silence for a while with the book, just as I was about to get up, I was suddenly choked by my neck, I couldn't move, and I couldn't see the person who choked my neck behind me, he almost gritted his teeth and said: "Lu Qingye, I'm going to kill you, kill you slut." ”

I then remembered that Yuan Lin hadn't left yet, but fortunately, Biyu and Qing'er were here, and they all rushed up to pull me and Yuan Lin apart, and Lin Wanwan was also holding Yuan Lin's waist and shouting: "Second master!" Don't do that! ”

But Yuan Lin was so excited that he went crazy, he pointed at me and said, "Lu Qingye, what am I sorry for you, you actually made everything about me look like this!" ”

Biyu and Qing'er also held me up, I coughed hard, coughed for a long time before I eased up, gasped and responded to Yuan Lin and said, "She did such a thing herself, why do you blame me?" And I didn't frame her, it was because she was not clean that she was caught, Yuan Lin, are you sick in the brain?! ”

Biyu and Qing'er hugged me and said let me talk less, after all, Yuan Lin has been hit so hard now.

Also, Wang Heqing is Yuan Lin's mother, and now because of this incident, she went to Nanshan Temple quietly, and she can't go down the mountain until she dies, and now if I still go to deal with the crazy Yuan Lin, then I am probably crazy myself, I can only endure the pain in my neck, and say to Biyu and Qing'er: "Let's go, let's go back to the room." ”

Qing'er and Biyu both exhaled, and then quickly left the place with me.

Lin Wanwan didn't hold Yuan Lin, Yuan Lin fell to the ground, and I heard him say in the back: "The one surnamed Song is locked up in Pingzhou Prison, and this matter has nothing to do with her!" Why did she hide from us and transfer half of the troops, is it convenient for you to save the surnamed Song? Lu Qingye, my mother and you don't have such a good relationship, everyone is not stupid! Do you think that it really doesn't matter if you emphasized that you were in the Mu family that night and denied that everything had nothing to do with you? That little guy was brought into the house by you, who did it, everyone knows it in their hearts! ”

The front hall was empty, and Yuan Lin's voice was very loud, echoing throughout the room, puncturing the eardrums, but I didn't stop, let Yuan Lin roar there, and quickly returned to my yard.

In fact, my argument seems to be reasonable, but in fact it is difficult to be convincing, and this matter is just as Steward Zhou said, it is not easy to shirk it for me at all, because Wang Heqing really has no reason to use his own rights at two o'clock in the morning to transfer half of the troops of Pingzhou Prison without Yuan Chengjun.

And Yuan Chengjun didn't investigate these carefully, it's not that he really lost his mind, but he happened to retain a little bit of reason and didn't pursue it, if he wants to investigate it, then the matter is not as simple as Mrs. Yuan having an affair with outsiders, and then the public opinion is the internal struggle of the family, the relationship between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law is not harmonious, and the two sides come and go, openly and secretly.

Now is Yuan Chengjun's rising period, and any negative impact is a fatal obstacle for him.

If his own family is not well managed, how can the people of the world rest assured that he will manage the country and the people?

But this kind of thing is only concerned by people who weigh the power and strategy, but some people may not be worried, just like Yuan Lin and the maids in the mansion and the relatives of the Wang family, they are all boiling and spreading, my viciousness, Yuan Chengjun's cowardice, the Mu family's domineering and unreasonable.

Some people even say that although the Yuan family seems to be Yuan Chengjun in charge, in fact, it has been controlled by the Mu family, and the Mu family has begun to cover the sky in the Yuan family.

When such words came out, Biyu and Qing'er were half angry, and when they returned to the yard, they angrily repeated those words to me, and I was in a good mood at this time, fiddling with the flowers in the vase and saying: "What is there to be angry about, the mouth grows on others, don't let others say it?" ”

Biyu said: "Why didn't I see you so open-minded before. ”

I smiled and said, "If you're in a good mood, you naturally don't care about anything." ”

Qing'er put the newly picked lotus flowers on the table and said, "But miss, have you heard anything today?" ”

I didn't look up and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Qing'er said: "After yesterday's incident, after Miss Wang went back, her lower body was red. ”

I was inserting flowers into the bottle, and when I heard Qing'er's words, I frowned and asked, "See red?" ”

Biyu also hurriedly interjected and said, "Last night, there was a night of trouble in Mufu, and the child almost died. ”

I said, "How about now?"

Jasper said, "It's stable now." ”

I listened to it without speaking, and continued to pick up the lotus picked by Qing'er and inserted it into the bottle, and inserted it for a while, when I felt that it was not good-looking, Qing'er handed me a bunch of oleanders, I took it, and after inserting it into the white jade bottle, I felt that the words in the bottle were a lot more harmonious.

Qing'er was silent for a while, and then whispered next to me, "I heard that Zirou died this morning. ”

I paused with my hand to play with the flowers, paused for a few seconds, and then asked as usual, "Didn't you ask about it in the afternoon, why did you die this morning?" ”

Qing'er said: "I heard that it was a violent death, and when the soldiers of the Yuan Mansion went to check this morning, the seven holes were bleeding. ”

I said, "It's also a pity to blame, it's just a matter of dying, and if you wait to be beheaded, it may be more painful." ”

Qing'er didn't speak, just waited on the side.

Later, in the afternoon, Wang Heqing was sent to Nanshan Temple, and Zirou's body was dragged out, probably to a mass grave.

Qing'er and Biyu were in a low mood, probably because of Zirou's death, although Zirou had lived here for a few days, they still got along with each other somewhat, and he died so quickly, which everyone didn't expect.

Two hours after Zirou was dragged to the mass grave, I also came out of the room after changing my clothes and said to Qing'er and Biyu that I was going to Mu's house to have a look.

Qing'er and Biyu thought that I was going to see Wang Zhizhi's child's situation, so they didn't ask much, and the two of them were secretly preparing money paper in the house, probably wanting to burn some for Zirou.

I glanced at them, didn't stay any longer, and walked out of Yuan's mansion with an umbrella.

It was especially hot outside, the sun was extremely red hanging in the blue sky, like a fireball scorching the world, what happened yesterday, Yuan Mansion was dead silent, only the cicadas chirping in the treetops.

I didn't let the car of the Yuan Mansion send me, but walked a little way by myself, and then entered a small house at the mouth of a remote alley, after I pushed the door directly, there were two people standing inside, they were responsible for dragging Zirou's body to the mass grave, they saw me coming, they didn't say a word, and quickly dragged out a bloody corpse from the grass pile in the corner of the house, the corpse seemed to have no breath, his face was white and blue, and his eyes were closed.

Without saying a word, I took out a string of oceans and handed them them, and the two men weighed it in their hands, and without saying anything, they quickly left the place.

As soon as they left, I closed the door of the house, and then crouched next to Zirou's corpse, and probed his nose with my fingers, the tip of his nose was cold, and there was no trace of life.

I opened his eyes with my hand again, my pupils turned white, it was a sign of death, I squatted there and looked at it for a while, I felt a little panicked inexplicably, so I hurriedly took out a medicine box from my sleeve, and took out a white pill from the medicine box, quickly opened Zirou's mouth, and stuffed the pill in.

Zirou didn't swallow it at first, I kept pressing his mouth to let the pill melt in his mouth, and only after his esophagus was completely entered, I let go of my hand and watched carefully.

Almost ten minutes passed, Zirou was lying on the ground and still reacted, I was a little anxious, so I patted his face and shouted his name, probably because the strength of his hand was too heavy, he had not moved, he actually coughed quietly, and then his face gradually changed from blue to bloody, and it didn't take long for his eyes to open a slit, his gaze stayed on my face, almost a few seconds, he asked in a hoarse voice: "I'm still alive." ”

I said, "You live." ”

I was afraid that he would not believe it, so I pinched him hard, about to his injury, and he screamed in an instant, and I didn't know where the strength was, and I dragged my hand that was holding his flesh and pushed it hard, and then groaned and sat up from the ground.

After he sat up, he seemed to be a little disbelieving that he was really alive, and touched his body left and right, although it was blood from his hand, but he didn't seem to feel any pain, and suddenly rushed over and hugged me, crying with joy.

The smell of his body now is not at all like the usual aroma, I can't stand him a little, a little disgusted, but in view of his previous death-threatening cooperation, I didn't push him away, let him hold him, and patted him on the shoulder at the appropriate time and said: "Okay, your task is complete, I have prepared silver and money for you and put it in the depository, you can go and take it and leave." ”

As soon as he heard this, Zirou couldn't stop crying, he let go of me, touched the tears on his face and said, "People still think that they are really dead, do you give me enough money." ”

I handed him the key and said: "It's enough for you to marry your daughter-in-law and buy a house and live well, I said I won't lie to you, as long as you cooperate with me well, I will keep you worry-free, but don't be happy too early, I finally bought your corpse from the two subordinates of the Yuan family, don't be too ostentatious during this time, take your things to the dock and leave quickly, never come back, otherwise if someone finds out, the emperor will not be able to save you." ”

He glanced at the key in my hand, then at me, and quickly took it over.

I handed him the umbrella in my hand and said, "There is hot water in the innermost room, you can wash it casually, change into clean clothes, and leave quickly, as for the wounds on your body, it will not be too late to deal with them when you reach the place where you want to go." ”

Zirou took the umbrella in my hand, bit her lip and looked at me for a long time, then quickly turned around and entered the house.

I stood there for two or three seconds without stopping any longer, and came out of the room.

Before handing over Zirou to Wang Heqing, I had already told him to cooperate with me, and then no matter what others asked him, he would truthfully tell the relationship between him and Wang Heqing, as well as what had happened, but Zirou was not stupid, he knew what it meant for him to say these things, except for death, it was still death.

At first, he refused to agree to me no matter what, but later he probably felt that even if he didn't cooperate with me, in the end, things would go wrong, no matter what was between him and Wang Heqing, it was just a dead end.

Before handing him over to Wang Heqing, I gave him a pill in advance, which was a medicine used to fake his death, the purpose of which was naturally to prevent Wang Heqing from killing him overnight.

But what neither I nor he expected was that Wang Heqing was not in a hurry to kill her, it was about the incident of Pingzhou Prison at that time, which was so serious that it was beyond her expectations, and she was dragged for a while, and when she relieved herself and wanted to kill Zirou, everything was too late, because Yuan Chengjun rushed back to Yuan's house before dawn.

This fake death pill didn't come in handy until the dust settled.

In fact, at the beginning, I was nervous and doubtful about the authenticity of this fake death pill, this medicine was when I was fifteen years old, and the bus came to me, but at that time he didn't say anything, only told me not to take it easily, unless it was an emergency and critical time, I didn't take it seriously at that time, I just threw the medicine aside and didn't care, and only thought that the medicine was a lie.

I didn't expect it to be used today, it's really magical.

While I walked out of this alley, I weighed the box in my hand, and felt that it was a pity that such a miraculous medicine was wasted on this kind of thing, but even so, fortunately, it was not a loss, and finally doubled what Wang Heqing did to me, presumably it is no longer possible for her to turn over in this life.

After I walked for a while, I stopped again, I looked back at the room behind me, after thinking about it, I still felt that something was wrong, and turned back, and when I reached the room, I kicked open the door of the inner room, Zirou was undressing, as if he was just about to wash, as soon as he heard the sound of kicking the door, he turned back to look at me, his face was full of shock.

I didn't care that he was shirtless now, so I rushed up and grabbed him by the hair and said, "Say, who sent you to me?" ”

Zirou's body was full of injuries, and he didn't dare to move at all, so he could only bend over and shout: "Whoever sent me to you, I came to you myself!" You're hurting someone! ”

Of course I don't believe his nonsense, I never believed that my luck was so good, I actually messed around like this, and broke the matter between him and Wang Heqing, and he came too coincidentally, he didn't come before, he didn't come a few months ago, but he suddenly came out to find me during this time.

I saw that he didn't say anything, so I reached out to pick up his pants, he panicked, after all, being a little girl is also dignified, and immediately covered his pants there to try to save his last trace of dignity: "No one really sent me over!" Don't be like this, if you want the slave to serve, just wait for the slave to be well and then serve you, don't be so rude and pull someone's pants—"

Then Zirou screamed again, and I kicked him into the barrel, and the water mixed with his injuries almost killed him.
