Chapter 99: The so-called evidence

"Mother-in-law, come and read these letters!" Old Madam Bai's words almost came out of her teeth.

Old Madam Lu took the letter in surprise, and when she looked at it, her heart was cold, she rubbed her eyes in disbelief, took a closer look, and then looked at Bai Mujian in horror, and said, "This is impossible...... Someone must have deliberately framed it! ”

Old Madam Bai didn't think so, but said coldly: "Mother-in-law, are we so dizzy that we can't even read our granddaughter's handwriting?" This box is locked, who can frame her at this time? ”

Old Madam Lu stood up suddenly, walked to Bai Mujian with the letter, and asked tremblingly, "Jin'er, what is going on?" ”

Bai Mu Hibiscus glanced at the letter, and then said, "Although this is my handwriting, I didn't write it!" ”

"Is that you? Is it you? No wonder, no wonder ......" The young man suddenly had red eyes, an expression that he had known this before, and trembled and took out another piece of paper from his bosom.

He knelt on the ground and cried: "Old lady, look, this is my brother's painting before he died, saying that it was his sweetheart, when I just came, I just glanced at this young lady in a hurry, and felt a little familiar, and now I look at it again, it is the person on this painting!" ”

Mama Sun took the painting in the past, spread it out and saw that it was indeed the appearance of white hibiscus, and the smiling expression was painted into the wood.

The painting is presented in front of everyone, and everyone's eyes are projected on Bai Hibiscus's body, ridicule, contempt, sarcasm, resentment, all of which are accusing her of shamelessness.

Lu Shi covered his heart painfully and said, "I really didn't expect it, I didn't expect it...... It's actually Jin'er, it's actually Jin'er, how can it be like this, how can it be like this? ”

Old Madam Bai stared at Bai Hibiscus coldly and said, "Do you have anything else to say?" ”

Bai Hibiscus stood up and glanced at everyone present, taking in everyone's expressions. Qin's worries, Lu Feiyuan's horror, Lu Jiaojiao's relief, Lu's pretense of heartache, Old Madam Bai's indifference, Old Madam Lu's distress, and Hu's contempt.

But she suddenly laughed, laughing so sarcastically, took the flower paper and the letter in her hand, and then asked, "The letter was signed in July, that is, half a year ago, when was this painting drawn?" ”

The young man looked at Bai Hibiscus's expression, and suddenly felt a little unbearable, such a beautiful young lady, it was a pity. It's just that he didn't turn back the arrow, he could only suppress the trace of remorse in his heart, and said firmly: "This is a month ago, my brother painted it, and my brother was afraid of being discovered, so I asked me to burn it, because I thought the woman on this painting was very good-looking, so I didn't want to burn it, and I put it away!" ”

After speaking, the young man lowered his head a little ashamedly, as if he was ashamed of his unruly behavior.

Bai Muhibi smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Chen'er, you have been following Mr. Dongfang for two months, I heard that Mr. Dongfang is excellent in calligraphy and painting, you come to see this painting, what do you think?" ”

Bai Muchen was worried, and hurriedly came over to take a look, but exclaimed in surprise: "Sister, there are lapis lazuli and red coral powder in the face used in this painting, and ...... This paper ...... It seems to be mica note! ”

Bai Mujin nodded, patted Bai Muchen's head approvingly, and said, "Very good, it seems that Mr. Dongfang has taught you a lot of things!" ”

"Jin'er, now is not the time to discuss painting, you better explain quickly, what the hell is going on!" Lu Feiyuan is really going to die in a hurry, she is sure that Bai Mu Hibiscus is definitely not that kind of person, but now the situation is extremely unfavorable for her.

Old Madam Lu also looked at Bai Hibiscus with a worried face, hoping that she could find a way to exonerate herself, otherwise this kind of infamous reputation would spread and she would be ruined for the rest of her life.

Bai Mu Hibiscus smiled gratefully at Lu Feiyuan, and then said: "Grandmother, you have always been proficient in qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, so naturally you don't know who uses pigments like lapis lazuli and red coral, and ...... This mica note, if I'm not mistaken, was out of stock a month ago, and all the paper stores in the capital didn't sell it, and the supply was just restored until two days ago, which is very strange, right? ”

When she taught Bai Hibiscus and Mu Xinping to paint a few days ago, she also said that the paper was gone, and someone went to buy it, and when she came back, she said that the paper shops in the capital were out of stock, as for these two precious pigments, how could a play be qualified to use?

These two kinds of pigments are exclusively for the use of officials, and they are not sold in the shops outside, and they dare not sell them, which is against the law, and a pariah should not want to use such good pigments.

She glared at the actor and said sharply, "Are you lying?" Want to frame up? ”

Cold sweat immediately broke out on the young man's forehead, he bit his lower lip, he didn't dare to speak easily, but he also knew that he must not admit it, and after a little thought, he said, "Probably...... Probably it was given to my brother by the young lady, and the little one doesn't know what's going on! ”

Bai Mujin smiled and said, "It seems that that person is also kind to your brother, and even gave him paints for painting, so he must meet often on weekdays, right?" ”

The magpie stood up, glared at the man dissatisfiedly, and said: "My young lady has never liked to go out, even if she goes out, she is accompanied by many people, how can she have the opportunity to have a private meeting with any drama, I really want to laugh off my big teeth, and I don't look at my identity, my young lady is so noble, how can she look at such a despicable person!" ”

The young man was so unabashedly despised by the magpie, and immediately retorted angrily: "The villain's brother is also a talent, and his poetry and songs are all excellent, talented, and there are many women who admire him!" ”

"Hahaha...... Really want to laugh to death, talented? Bah...... A ninth-rate actor, what is said to be talented, my young lady was taught by the old lady herself, and she is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. There are also grandmothers from the palace who teach etiquette, no matter what point it is, it is impossible to watch a play! The magpie taunted even more unscrupulously.

When Mrs. Bai heard this, she felt that things were a little strange, what kind of character Bai Mujin was, she knew very well, and where she went on weekdays, she also knew it clearly, how could she have been exposed to any drama?

So he believed that this inexplicable drama was lying, so he said: "Tell me quickly, who instructed you?" You dare to frame up, what is your identity, you want to slander the eldest lady of Ning Guogong, don't you want to die? ”

Old Madam Lu also reprimanded: "What a faceless slut, mother-in-law, such a scourge can't be kept!" ”

Seeing that the situation was not right, the Lu family immediately started a round and said: "The two old ladies don't be excited, the matter has not been clarified yet, maybe there is something else hidden!" ”

Bai Mu Hibiscus also chimed in: "What Mother said makes sense, but ...... can't just listen to such a person's words, there are so many people in the troupe, I don't believe that Yuan Chengyi has a personal relationship with others, and no one will know. There is a good saying, if people don't know, they can't do it unless they do! ”

When Bai Hibiscus said this, she glanced at Lu with a smile, which made her chuckle in her heart, as if everything had been pierced by Bai Hibiscus.

Old Madam Bai also nodded in agreement, this matter must not involve Bai Hibiscus, otherwise the reputation of the Bai family should be completely ruined, what she cares about is not Bai Hibiscus, but the reputation of the Ningguo Mansion and her own face. There is a granddaughter who has an affair with the drama, shouldn't the Ningguo Mansion become Tian Yuan's biggest laughing stock?

So he said categorically: "Bring in the people from outside in batches and ask them one by one, I don't believe I can't find the truth of the matter!" ”

After Mrs. Bai asked them one by one, most of them said that they didn't know the inside story, because the Yuan Chengyi brothers didn't have much contact with everyone on weekdays, and they were so withdrawn.

Until Hua Qingyue, another corner of the troupe, appeared, and Old Madam Bai still asked him the same question: "Do you know that Yuan Chengyi has an affair with someone?" ”

Hua Qingyue glanced at Yuan Chengyi's younger brother who was kneeling on the ground, **** Fang. Then he nodded and said: "Speaking of this, the little one was also discovered by accident, it was still last year's thing, the double happiness class set up a stage in Lanting Fang, after Yuan Chengyi's scene, he took off his makeup and rested, but I accidentally saw a young lady who was not very old and dressed very expensive to come to him, the two were very intimate, I became suspicious, and then I bumped into their private meeting several times!" ”

Lu Shi looked at Hua Qingyue, and then asked with a hint of guidance: "Then do you know who that young lady is?" Now that you've seen it, can you still recognize it? ”

Hua Qingyue frowned slightly, thought about it carefully, and said, "I seem to know her, but I don't know which young lady she is!" ”

Lu Shi glanced at Bai Mujian and Lu Feiyuan, who had been sitting next to him, and then said, "There are three young ladies here now, take a closer look, is there the one you said had a private meeting with Yuan Chengyi?" ”

There is already the brilliance of victory in Lu's eyes, as long as this final blow is blown, Bai Mujian will jump into the Yellow River and can't be washed, can't everyone come to wronged her, right?

Only then did Hua Qingyue dare to raise her head, her eyes looked at the three young ladies, Lu Feiyuan just flashed over with a quick glance, and then looked at Bai Hibiscus, but there was a slight pause, which made everyone's hearts rise to their throats.

However, Hua Qingyue did not point to Bai Hibiscus, but turned to Lu Feiyuan, looked at it carefully for a while, and then frowned and thought about it, as if comparing it with the impression in her mind.

Seeing that something was wrong with the situation, Lu Jiaojiao's face was already pale, and there was indescribable panic in her eyes. Because she was injured, everyone didn't care about it, but Lu Shi found the doubts in Hua Qingyue's eyes that were gradually deepening.

"Boss Hua, you have to look carefully, don't recognize the wrong person!" Although Lu Shi said a reminder with a smile, it sounded like a warning.

Hua Qingyue raised her head, arched her hand, and said, "The villain has already looked carefully, it should be the young lady with a wound on her head, because she has a white cloth on her head, I am still a little unsure for a while, so I watched it for a while!" ”
