Chapter 167: Bai Mei was wronged, and there was another turmoil

"Yushan is talking about Baimei?" Mu Yunge frowned slightly.

Yushan nodded: "The eldest lady guessed well, it's Baimei!" ”

Song Yaming saw that both of her were so sure, this person was not far from ten, and hurriedly asked, "Who is Baimei?" Is it a girl or a relative of the Mu family, or a guest from the banquet, can you be in the house now? ”

Shen Jingyu and Aunt Xiao raised their eyebrows when they heard them mention Baimei, and they both showed a somewhat calculating smile, and they immediately relaxed their hearts.

Yushan knelt in the hall and said clearly word by word: "Back to Lord Song, Bai Mei is the girl of the Mu family, she was discovered by the eldest lady for committing something before, and she was ordered to be punished with a cane for twenty years, and she was confined for a day, and she was released from the firewood room early this morning." She had just been tortured with a cane, and she needed to use a cane to move, so she naturally walked with her legs. ”

"Could it be that the girl has a grudge and wants to poison Miss Mu?" Wei Shi turned his head sideways to consult with Song Yaming.

This remark won Song Yaming's approval, this Baimei has such a motive to kill, and the time and place coincide, the suspicion of poisoning is the greatest.

"Pass on the white plum!" Song Yaming drank the order.

After a short time, Bai Mei limped behind the family and came to the side room. Song Yaming saw her grinning teeth as she walked, obviously the cane punishment she received was genuine, thinking of what Yushan said, she secretly deduced in her heart that she was afraid that this Bai Mei's hatred for Mu Yunge was not the slightest bit.

As soon as Bai Mei knelt down, Song Yaming asked, "Bai Mei, are you guilty?" ”

"The slave doesn't know." Bai Mei was recuperating in the courtyard, and when she was suddenly summoned, she was uneasy in her heart, and when she heard him severely scold, she was so frightened that her hands and feet trembled slightly, and she even forgot the pain in her buttocks and legs.

Song Yaming said: "You were beaten by Miss Mu, you hold a grudge, and you want to poison the eldest lady's diet and poison the eldest lady, can you have such a thing?" ”

Bai Mei almost suspected that she had heard it wrong, her eyes widened in astonishment, her teeth trembled slightly, and her voice was shocked: "My lord, I am wronged!" The slave maid is a girl, she has done something wrong, and she should be punished by the eldest lady, how dare she hold a grudge, and how can she poison Miss Mu and want to harm the eldest lady's life? ”

"Miss Mu's diet was poisoned, and there are witnesses who confirm that you had been to the room before the incident and touched the food in the room." Song Yaming forced to ask: "You still haven't recruited from the truth?" ”

Bai Mei turned her head to look at Zhang Lingshan who was kneeling beside her, Zhang Lingshan looked at her, obviously didn't understand what was going on today, blinked her eyes, and said to her with a smile: "Sister, you came here just now, I didn't lie." ”

This kind of thing can also be recognized casually?

Bai Mei was full of tears, resentful and angry: "Lingshan, how can you wronged me?" ”

"Ling Shan didn't lie, sister, you already took the porridge from the pot!" Zhang Lingshan obviously didn't understand the importance of the matter: "You also added something to the pot. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience gasped.

Bai Mei was so angry that she almost fainted: "I tasted the porridge and felt that the sweetness was not enough, so I took honey from the room and added some of it." ”

Zhang Lingshan yelled at her, flattened her mouth, and didn't dare to say anything.

"Honey?" Pei Xin didn't believe it: "If the sweetness is really insufficient, Sister-in-law Zhang will naturally add it, how can I use you?" ”

Bai Mei asked her speechlessly, knowing that her move was indeed redundant, but now she was suspicious, and she couldn't tell it clearly.

The matter has come to this, and now if you want to return your innocence, the key is to the adults here. Bai Mei twisted her body, kowtowed violently, and cried: "My lord, please listen to the slave maid's defense, the slave and maid have been to the gang's room, and the slave and maid have indeed touched the things in the gang's room, but the slave and maid went to the gang's room and didn't poison anything, the slave and maid were just hungry and went to the gang's room to find something to eat." ”

"You're hungry, haven't you eaten anything in the plum garden?" Song Yaming didn't quite understand.

Bai Mei cried: "My lord doesn't know, the slave did something wrong, and was locked up by the eldest lady for a day, and she was not allowed to eat or drink." The subordinates in the Meiting Court listened to the orders, and did not dare to give the slaves and maids anything to eat, the slaves and maids were very hungry, and they thought that today was a celebration banquet, and there should be a lot of things in the big kitchen, so this was ......"

"You still want to deny it!" Yuxi behind Xiao Shi was angry when he heard it: "You are the only one who has touched the white fungus sago lotus seed porridge, who else is it you?" ”

Song Yaming pondered for a moment, and said to Mu Zhizhao: "If you don't investigate thoroughly, I'm afraid you won't be able to return Yunge's justice, if the second brother doesn't mind, I want to search and appreciate Meiting." ”

"Lord Song, please!" Mu Zhizhao has no ghost in his heart, how can he refuse.

Immediately, several family members went to the plum court to investigate.

In the side room, everyone had different expressions, Shen Jingyu and Aunt Xiao supported each other, their palms were clenched, Shen Jingyu was worried on her face, but in fact, she was secretly proud, whether she could get rid of suspicion, and it was up to her to take a break from this matter!

Soon, the two family members came back, holding a few things, and rested them on the mahogany table in front of the small couch.

Mei Shaoqing stepped forward to open it, only to see two packets of white powder. After tasting it slightly, he immediately changed his face, straightened up and glared at Bai Mei rather viciously, before saying, "My lord, one of the two packets of powder here is sweet grass, and the other is bitter lotus heart. Kulian thought about the bitter taste, although it tasted not bitter, the taste did not change. ”

"Bold slave, you also said that you have no evil intentions!" Song Yaming made a decision, and immediately became furious: "These things were all found in your room, what else do you have to say?"

Like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, Bai Mei, who had always been steadfast and unafraid, almost fainted, very frightened, sweating like rain.

Yushan and the others were very respectful to Mu Yunge, and when they saw her in distress at this moment, they were all angry in their hearts, Yushan stood up and shouted: "Baimei, you did such an ugly thing, the eldest lady is kind-hearted, spare your life, you will take revenge, so I don't know what to do!" ”

"Slaves don't have it, slaves really don't!" Bai Mei's tears fell to the ground, and her head shook like a rattle, "Sister Yushan, you believe me, I really don't!" ”

"You didn't? So what are these! Yushan was angry and angry.

Bai Mei cried almost out of breath: "I don't know, these things are really not mine, I never know what sweet grass and bitter lotus heart are, how can I make such a thing?" ”

But what she said, obviously no one believed it, the human and material evidence was there, and all pointed to her, who could make the decision for her?

Seeing this, Shen Jingyu let go of the hand that had been holding Aunt Xiao, the big thing had been accomplished, her heart was stable, and she finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Someone, tie up this Diao slave for me, send it to the yamen, and wait for it to be delivered." Song Yaming blushed and commanded left and right.

"The slave and maid are wronged-" Bai Mei was terrified and struggled desperately: "My lord, the slave and maid are wronged, the slave and maid dare to swear and swear, and they definitely did not poison the eldest lady!" ”

No one listened to her, and Bai Mei was dragged by someone and was going to be taken out of the wing.

At this moment, I saw that the crowd was separated, and the other family members who had just gone to visit the plum court finally returned, and as soon as they came back, they immediately said, "Slow down, adults! ”

Shen Jingyu saw that someone was coming again, and Bai Mei's matter was interrupted again, if something went wrong, what should she do? She was already afraid, for fear that the night would be long and dreamy, and she couldn't help but stare at the visitor angrily.

Song Yaming waved his hand, Bai Mei was let go, and he frowned and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

The two family members knelt on the ground, their expressions were solemn, they wanted to speak and stopped, before they spoke, they also cautiously glanced at Fu Bohou and Mrs. Fu Bohou's Mansion, and looked at Mu Zhizhao and Xiao with some concern, and finally fell on Mu Yunge. Mu Yunge closed his eyes and nodded slightly, and one of them immediately bowed to the ground: "Adults, the little ones were ordered to search the Plum Garden, checked Bai Mei's residence, and found these things. The little ones thought to themselves, I heard that there was a thief with Bai Mei that day, if Bai Mei had a thief's heart, it was hard to guarantee that she would not unite with outsiders to make a move on the old lady and the young master, so they searched her house more. ”

"What else did you find?" Wei Shi was very interested, and asked with a smile on his face.

The family said: "We didn't find anything in Baimei's house, but when we came out of her house, we suddenly saw that the flower hall in the plum garden was not closed, and we had doubts in our hearts. The Mu family feasted today, the girls and slaves in each room and courtyard were all dispatched, and there was no possibility that there would still be people, and the little ones were afraid of entering the thief, so they went to check. How do you know that this look almost scared the three souls and seven spirits of the little ones! ”

"What's that?" Song Yaming also felt that something was wrong, and his heart jumped suddenly.

The family knocked his head and shook into a ball: "The little one, the little one doesn't dare to say!" ”

"What don't you dare to say!" Pei Xin was anxious and muttered in a low voice: "The lord and the lady are here, and there are so many distinguished guests, all of them are in high positions, can anyone eat you?" ”

When the family heard this, he raised his head and said timidly, "The little ones found a corpse in the plum garden......

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately lowered his head in fear and did not dare to look at people again.

Corpse?

A corpse was found in the Mu family?

His words undoubtedly exploded in the crowd, and everyone's faces changed color. Mu Zhizhao stood up suddenly, and Xiao also knew that something was wrong, so he stood up with his chair. Mu Yunge sat up straight on the small step, and also looked at them with a serious expression. However, her eyes turned around, and she and Wei Shi looked at each other, and they both showed a triumphant smile.

"Corpses? Who is it? Song Gongming never thought that the interrogation of Mu Yunge's poisoning would involve a murder case, and he was still in front of so many people. Shocked, he got up from his chair and said, "Are you still there?" ”

Mrs. Zhao, Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Yue sent the girls to find Zhao Yarong, at this time something happened to the Mu family, but the girls did not come back, and the uneasiness in Mrs. Zhao's heart became more and more intense, although she had been listening to Song Yaming's trial, her eyes looked out from time to time.

When Song Yaming asked, the girl she sent out also came back with a heavy face, holding something in her hand and handing it to her eyes, and lowered her voice to her ear and said, "Madam, this is the jasper ring worn by the eldest lady today, and the slave maid picked it up on the path leading to the south courtyard of the Mu family to enjoy the plum garden!" The door of the room in the plum garden was locked, and the slave and maid could not enter, so they had to let the two sisters guard it, and came back to let the lady have an idea. ”

It's the Plum Garden again......

Mrs. Zhao's figure swayed slightly, and she suddenly had a bad association, and her face was pale and she tightened her grip on Bohou's arm.

At this moment, I only heard Jia Ding reply: "My lord, the little ones know that it is the eldest lady of the Fubo Hou Mansion!" ”
