Chapter 226: Trying to cover up
The reactions of the actors and subordinates in the theater made the 'Marquis Geng' present a little unable to sit still.
As soon as the butler on the side wanted to come out and say a few words, he saw 'Hou Ye Geng' throw the teacup in his hand heavily on the desk, and immediately stood up and said angrily. "Hmph, you theater people, I don't worry less about bad things, but good things don't necessarily mean that you have fought for my Hou Mansion. If you can't get a result out of today's 'Li Jin'er' matter, it is estimated that you will have to trouble me every day in the future. ”
After that, he squinted his eyes and looked around at everyone, and sighed. "The old man was thinking just now, if I let you go, I'm afraid that there will be even more evil intentions, and even people will dare to kill them. When the time comes, I'm afraid that the reputation of my Hou Mansion will be discredited to you. ”
All of a sudden, the sigh of 'Marquis Geng' made the tip of Steward Niu's nose sour, and he almost shed a few muddy old tears. Without waiting for 'Hou Ye Geng's words to take root, Steward Niu stepped forward and muttered in his voice.
"Everyone, you should have heard Hou Ye's heartfelt words just now. For the sake of the future of the Hou Mansion and your interests, I hope that you can automatically and consciously tell the clues you can know, so that we can find out the murderer of 'Li Jin'er' and return you to peace and innocence. Otherwise, if you refuse to say it, then I can only compensate you according to the family law of the Hou Mansion. ”
As soon as Steward Niu said this, the towering people in the courtyard began to stir again. Or whispering to each other, or even the people between the upper and lower sides, the left and right began to argue, and just began to whisper to each other to prove their innocence, and suddenly converged into a noisy noise.
'Shen Gan'er' witnessed the momentum of the crowd from silence to indignation, and her body trembled slightly unconsciously. She quickly glanced at Qiu Tao who was still mixed in the crowd, but when she saw Qiu Tao standing calmly in the middle, and communicating with the actors next to her from time to time, she couldn't see what kind of bad things she had done, but she was afraid first.
'Marquis Geng' looked coldly at the scene in front of him and became noisy again, and he was so annoyed that he immediately jumped up from his seat and shouted. "Hmph, I didn't ask you to come and make noise, I asked you to confess to the perpetrators. If you don't want to tell you what you know or see, then I'll have to interrogate you one by one. As he spoke, he lowered his voice coldly, and after a moment, he became feminine and arrogant again.
"If you don't say it, but I tell you. This is not the most terrible thing, the most terrible thing is to toss like this, and the day of catastrophe will not be far away. I've fallen 'Marquis Geng', and you won't be any better there, so I'll have to cut you first. ”
Everyone heard 'Marquis Geng' say so angrily, and they quieted down again in an instant. Completely puzzled, he fell in love with the 'Marquis Geng' among them, but the 'Marquis Geng' smiled mysteriously and said loudly. "You don't believe in evil, do you? I can leave this alone, but it won't be long before you will be in trouble. As he spoke, he laughed coldly a few times, picked up the hot tea on the desk and tasted it again.
At this time, the cow steward stood up again and said, "Did you all hear that? What did Hou Ye say? Wait until the day of the catastrophe, don't say that the Hou Ye will not remind you. If you don't want to say it now, then wait for one person to go and check it one by one. ”
'Shen Gan'er' seemed to be serious, and followed the topic of 'Marquis Geng'. "Sisters, the 'Li Jin'er' incident is really something that everyone expected, and I can't say if it was one of you who did it. But as the leader of this place, I still hope that all the sisters can focus on the overall situation, think about it, recall what unexpected discoveries you made in the matter of 'Li Jin'er', and say it so that everyone can solve this matter and persuade them to live in peace. ”
As soon as Shen Gan'er's words fell, some people in the crowd retorted. "Miss Shen, we haven't even touched the side of the 'Li Jin'er' sisters and all the things that should be used daily, why do we say that we are suspicious? Is Hou Ye's approach arbitrary? ”
"If you want to track down the people and suspects who were poisoned, you also have to pay attention to some people who have the most daily contact with the 'Li Jin'er' sisters and have grievances against right and wrong, which is the person and suspect who are most likely to be poisoned? If you are suppressed like this, won't those of us who can't get along with Ben suffer in vain? ”
"Yes, Miss Shen, you have to separate us from the subordinates who have not been close to the 'Li Jin'er' sisters for eight lifetimes. Otherwise, we will suffer in vain with the evil man, and we will not accept it. ”
"Hmph, things have come out, are you still unconvinced at this time? It is already a great kindness for Hou Ye not to treat your sins of joint sitting, what are you still thinking about Hou Ye? Steward Niu looked at the actors and subordinates who resisted strongly, and suddenly became menacing and said, the situation of suppressing everyone was just waiting for 'Marquis Geng' to nod and agree.
When everyone in the courtyard was making a lively and boiling noise, Mrs. Wang's voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard. "What are you arguring about, do you want to rebel against the Hou Mansion? Wait for the monkey spirits to see how I clean you up one by one. ”
While speaking, Mrs. Wang had already broken in with the support of three maids. Walked to the chair to the right of 'Marquis Geng' and sat down, glanced at 'Marquis Geng' before speaking slowly. "Broken down, what are you paying attention to in the theater? Gather all the people here, and you don't have to do things today? There is also Butler Niu, you kidnapping monkey spirit, what are you making trouble with Hou Ye? Are you alone and ready to take care of all their things today? ”
Mrs. Wang said, stared at 'Shen Gan'er' coldly, and sighed. "Shen girl, you are really, you see how you manage this theater. It's only been a few days since the last incident, and you made a fuss about 'Li Jin'er' being poisoned and dumb again. Don't say that Hou Ye is angry with you, the old lady also hates you. ”
"The old lady finally put this theater under your control, it's good for you, you don't love yourself, and you always make some troubles. If it weren't for my face in the Hou Mansion, I am afraid that you, the foxy 'Shen Gan'er', would have been gnawed by this cowardly ruined house and there would be no bones left. There is still the existence of you, 'Shen Gan'er', in the Hou Mansion! ”
"Well, Mrs. has learned a lesson, and it is all to blame 'Shen Gan'er' for not being able to manage the theater, and Mrs. is always tired of supporting and supporting it. Now that such a thing has happened, not only is Shen Gan'er's face gloomy, but even more so, the entire Hou Mansion is panicked and discussed, and he asks his wife for forgiveness. "'Shen Gan'er' suddenly walked out of it and knelt down in front of Mrs. Wang and said, as if she really didn't want such a thing to happen in the theater.
Mrs. Wang stared at 'Shen Gan'er' with disdain again, and said in a long voice angrily. "Alright, don't talk nonsense like that. Get up, I don't want you to kneel down and plead and tears ripple as soon as you see me. You'd better give me some backbone and take care of this theater with your vigor, that's what I want to see. ”
"Yes, as Madame commands. So how to solve the current 'Li Jin'er' matter? Do you have to find out what is going on? "'Shen Gan'er' took the opportunity to bring up this topic and said, in fact, she had already made up her mind to pull Mrs. Wang into this matter. In this way, 'Marquis Geng' will be imposing in front of Mrs. Wang, so it is very likely that her 'Shen Gan'er' and that Qiu Tao will be able to escape the punishment of 'Marquis Geng' this time.
Thinking that Mrs. Wang would not believe that 'Shen Gan'er' was involved in the poisoning of this hot thing, Mrs. Wang confidently turned her head and said to 'Marquis Geng'. "It's broken, this thing happened if it didn't happen, and it didn't make sense to blame anyone. Isn't it a drama that you can't sing? If she doesn't sing, she can still play the piano. If we fall for the trick of stirring up discord and trying to cover up, wouldn't it hurt the people of our Hou Mansion. ”
'Marquis Geng' glanced at Mrs. Wang in disbelief, then turned his head and glanced at 'Li Jin'er' next to him, and finally didn't say anything more.
But Mrs. Wang said slowly, "I think this matter is settled, can't I say that the hoarse throat of 'Li Jin'er' is her own pathology?" or other self-caused. Where are we going to find this real murderer, isn't this tossing people in vain? Don't toss around, let's disperse. 'Shen Gan'er' and that Qiu Tao just stayed, and the rest of the people all dispersed. ”
As soon as Shen Gan'er heard Mrs. Wang's words, her face turned pale in an instant, and her slightly trembling body slowly swept towards the autumn peach left behind. But seeing that Qiu Tao was still talking about it, she was standing in the middle calmly, as if this thing had never happened.
'Marquis Geng' immediately stared at Mrs. Wang in shock, and said dumbfounded. "Ma'am, madam, how can you be so arbitrary and rash? Could it be that the matter of 'Li Jin'er' was wiped out by you like this. This, this is very unreasonable. ”
Madame Wang's eyes flashed, and a glow like a mung bean immediately erupted from her eyes. She said with a "haha" laugh, "Broken Household, in the Hou Mansion, you tell me about Tianli?" What a joke. Are you full of food and have nothing to do, so you are idle to play with me? I advise you not to come to this set in front of the old lady, or hurry up and take your abducted military division to the blue and white embroidery building to find fun. There's nothing to do with you here in the theater, for the sake of years of husband and wife, I'll this heart for you. ”
'Marquis Geng' was intervened by Mrs. Wang, and the love that was surprised and sighed just now immediately wilted again. He glared at Mrs. Wang angrily, jumped up angrily and muttered for a while, seeing that Mrs. Wang's face was very wrong, so he had to take the cow steward and the few little maids away.
'Shen Gan'er' looked coldly at the scene staged by 'Marquis Geng' and Mrs. Wang, a burst of ecstatic surprise flashed on her face, and she couldn't help but let out a cold smile in her heart.
