"Okay, I'd like to hear your explanation." Xiao Shilang stopped the guards who were going to catch 'Chun' and stared straight at her.

When Fang 'Chun' said that, he just subconsciously wanted to defend himself, but now Xiao Shilang really gave her a chance, but she didn't know where to start for a while······ Nor can it be said.

In Xiao Shilang's expectant gaze, 'Spring' lowered his head, and his voice was like a mosquito, "Shilang... … I'm sorry.

"Take it away!" Xiao Ruizhi, who came up later, glanced at 'Chun' with an expressionless face, and then said loudly, "Block the back mountain and let the guards of the whole mansion search the mountain." ”

"Yes!"

A group of guards took the order and quickly dispersed.

The remaining two guards pressed 'Chun' and followed Xiao Rui down the mountain. Xiao Shilang stood in place in a daze, the night breeze was slightly cool, with the fragrance of faint orchid 'flowers', and the shadows of the trees in front of him were heavy, swaying with the wind, like a beast trying to break free. The night 'color' seems mysterious and distant, but it makes people chill from the bottom of their hearts.

I didn't know how long I stood in a daze before Xiao Shilang turned around and went home.

The house was brightly lit, especially on the ancestral hall, where many people had gathered, and there was a small servant waiting at the 'gate' in the morning, "Shiro, Shiro please go to the ancestral hall to participate in the interrogation together." ”

Xiao Shilang retracted his soul at this time, and shook his head weakly, "Let the brothers watch it, I'll go see my mother." ”

The little servant was embarrassed and said, "Shilang, there is no big house here, and the patriarch is not easy to deal with at will." ”

Xiao Shilang had already stepped into the 'door' threshold with one foot, and after a long pause, he took it back and walked towards the ancestral hall.

Ran Yan and Xiao Song had already gotten the news, and when they caught the 'spring' coming, a servant went over and invited Xiao Song to the ancestral hall.

At this moment, in the brightly lit ancestral hall, almost all the people who can speak in the Xiao family are all together, and even the ladies have rushed over, all of them are only combing simple low buns, facing the sky, and wearing plain white filial piety clothes with black lines, which adds a bit of solemnity to the ancestral hall.

Everyone sat on the makeshift mat with a large space in the middle, and Haru Lai knelt in the center, seemingly calm, but his lips trembled slightly.

The fourth lady sat straight, her expression was as rigid as usual, and the sixth lady described her as a little lazy, her fingers hidden in the wide sleeves and gently tapped on the side of the 'leg', and Dugu's expression looked at the 'spring' with a condensed look, which made the people around her feel quite stressed.

And Song Guogong is accustomed to going to court, even if the sky falls, he is also indifferent, and the rest of them are worthy of being the descendants of the Xiao family, compared to Song Guogong's calmness, it is not bad at all.

Xiao Song was dressed in plain clothes, which made his excellent facial lines appear a little softer, his dark eyes were shining, and his black hair was loosely curled into a bun on the top of his head.

There was silence in the house. The crowd at the entrance of the door was slightly 'commotion'. Ran Yan looked up, but saw Xiao Shilang, who was dressed in plain clothes, walking in slowly, and sat at the end of the seat with his head down.

"Hyun-ji, come and sit here." Xiao Dao.

Xiao Shilang got up silently, lowered his head and walked to Xiao and sat down.

"'Spring' is coming, all the clansmen are here today, tell me where you went tonight? Who to meet? Xiao looked at 'Chun' who was kneeling in the hall, and his tone was indifferent.

There was silence for two breaths.' Haruhun's voice trembled slightly. It's Eleven Lang, and the slave has a 'private' affair with him. ”

Ran Yan was stunned for a moment, Xiao Shiyilang!

Xiao Shilang raised his head suddenly, staring at the 'spring', and his good-looking 'lips' were pursed into a line.

"The slave is guilty! Please Patriarch Fall! "'Spring' came and crawled on the ground, and his voice was already whimpering.

The hall was full of people looking at each other, originally luring the snake out of the 'hole' and leading to a 'treacherous' relationship, but whether this is a trick used by 'spring' or a coincidence, remains to be explored. Besides, Xiao Shiyi is indeed not present now.

Song Guogong looked at Xiao Song and said in a deep voice, "You come to ask." ”

Although Song Guogong looks down on Xiao Song's means of dealing with the world, he is in charge of the prison and has quite a lot of political achievements, and his ability in this regard is definitely stronger than everyone present.

There was no objection from the crowd.

Xiao Song is a little blocked, but who let that be his own old man, and he can't lose face. When you endure, you endure. Xiao Song took a breath and commanded loudly, "Go and see where Eleven is." ”

The guards took the order, Xiao Songcai turned his head to look at 'Chun', and said slowly, "Do you know, just now you said that, about half of the people present will believe you." ”

'Chun' Lai was still lying on the ground, without the slightest reaction, Xiao Song continued, "Because you have been a maid in my Xiao family since you joined my Xiao family, you have always been honest and follow the rules. But... Even if those are all pretended, but Mrs. Tai has just passed away, and the eldest lady has been poisoned and cheated on the cusp of this 'wave'? ”

'Chun' came to the ground and trembled more and more, but Xiao Song didn't plan to let her go, "Come on, go find your mother-in-law to check your body!" Xiao Song looked at 'Chun' lightly, "Don't tell me, you can't wait so much, it's the first time you cheat." I don't know about others, but the eleventh brother is not the kind of 'meat' that can be put in his mouth and can be endured. ”

'Spring' came like rain, and the bluestone floor in front of him was already wet, and the messy 'messy' hair was soaked with sweat and stuck to his cheeks, which was very embarrassing.

The room was quiet and frightening, and after about half a cup of tea, a guard led a mother-in-law about forty years old and hurriedly walked in.

"Jiulang, Wen Po has found it." Escort report.

Xiao Song raised his chin and motioned to take the person down for a physical examination.

The two guards had just grabbed Chunlai's arm when she suddenly said, "The slave is a virgin." ”

Xiao Shilang's expression changed a lot, and he kept staring at the eyes of the 'spring' but never moved away, and there was a faint blood 'color' in his eyes. 'Spring' is a child born in the family, Xiao Shilang knew her when she was three years old, and there is no one in the whole house who doesn't know what her 'sex' is, if it weren't for her father's status among the servants of Xiao Mansion, with such a generous 'sex', she would have been bullied to death a long time ago. But today, for some unknown reason, she actually lied! And even at this point, there is no intention of confessing!

"You can choose to confess 'in private.'" Xiao Song said.

"Slaves should be damned!" 'Chun' moved his body slightly, kowtowed in the direction of Xiao Shilang, and when he kowtowed for the second time, he hit the bluestone slab with a fierce force.

Xiao Shilang tightened his body, and his voice almost blurted out, but he suppressed it to death. Fortunately, the guard's eyes were quick, and although he didn't have time to stop her movements, he slowed down his strength a lot and only broke the skin.

"Patriarch, father, there are still many clues in this matter, and it doesn't have to be from 'Chun' to start here, I think it can be dealt with." Xiao Song sat up straight, and there was not the slightest hint of joking in his tone.

Xiao's family motto is very strict, even if there is a bit of fortitude in the 'sex' of the servants and maids, since the 'spring' has already decided to rather die than say, it is futile to use torture again. Xiao Song also knows a little bit about the 'sex' of 'spring', this girl is a person who admits death, and the thing she believes is that ten cows can't pull it back.

However, Xiao Song is not without a way to deal with her, but it is too 'insidious', and if she uses it, she is afraid that she will have to turn against Song Guogong, so she has to lay the groundwork first.

The ancestral hall was opened on the night when the teachers were mobilized, and the Xiao family gathered up and down, just to punish a 'servant' maid?

Even the ladies began to frown, even more so the patriarch of them.

Xiao Song saw that everyone's emotions were almost the same, so he talked about the punishment lightly, "Even if 'Chun' is cheating, dare to seduce Xiao's sister-in-law during Mrs. Tai's funeral, be disloyal and unjust, and ruin the filial piety of the master, it is a felony, so he and his family, under 70, and over one year old, will all be transferred to the government and sentenced to capital punishment." ”

This matter is put on a good citizen or an official person, at most, it is a lifetime of infamy and being despised by the world, and it has not reached the point of raiding the house at all, but the lowly slaves and maids are the same animals, even if they are charged with uneasiness and execute a 'servant' maid, it doesn't matter, not to mention that Xiao Song has been pressed such a big crime.

'Chun' came to stiffen, his head was hit by Fang Cai, and it was still buzzing, and it took a while to react to what Xiao Song said. At this time, everyone had already decided on it.

Xiao Dao, "Yue's words are reasonable, my Xiao family from the Southern Dynasty Xuanhe, my Xiao family sons are not disloyal, upright, filial piety, now a cheap maid, actually tried to mislead my Xiao sister-in-law, even if the truth of this matter is unknown, but the 'servant' maid 'Chun' to blame Eleven Lang, in a vain attempt to insult his reputation, has become a fact, in order to avoid such a situation in the future, must be severely punished." ”

Xiao Song secretly praised in his heart, sure enough, Jiang is still old and spicy, Xiao has been the patriarch of the Xiao clan for more than ten years, how can he be confused, Xiao Song got up, and he followed with righteous words, fair and non-'selfish' words, and people couldn't find a trace of mistakes.

Song Guogong's face was very unsightly, but it was helpless that this was a matter in the family, and it was handled by the patriarch, and it was not excessive, what could he say? Even if he knew that this was just a trick to deceive 'Spring', he could only keep a black face and remain silent.

'Spring' came with tears falling like a broken embankment, and the eyes that smiled like a crescent moon were full of despair at the moment. Even Ran Yan felt unbearable when he saw it.

"Let's disperse. Notify the government tomorrow morning to collect the people. After Xiao made a decision, he had already gotten up.

The rest of the people also got up and stood respectfully to see the elders away, before they dispersed one after another.

'Chun' was imprisoned in the ancestral hall by the steward, and in order to place her and kill herself, Xiao Song had her tied to the pillar of the ancestral hall and blocked something in her mouth.

After everyone retreated, the huge ancestral hall immediately looked solemn, and the wind blew in through the crack in the 'door', through the empty hall, and made a whimpering sound.

'Spring' was so frightened that he shivered and wanted to curl up in a ball, but he couldn't move at all because he was tied all over his body.

The moon shadow sinks in the west, and it is the most boiling time after the child, although the ancestral hall cover is magnificent, but because it is too empty, it is very 'cloudy' and cold all year round. 'Spring' just came to sweat, and out of this environment, in the second half of the night, it was a fever.

She closed her eyes, her head was groggy, and suddenly, a slightly cool hand was placed on her forehead, which frightened her into a 'excited' spirit, and she opened her eyes suddenly, but she was greeted by a familiar handsome face.

Tears flowed out again.

The person who came silently helped her untie the rope, took out a 'medicine' bottle from her sleeve, dipped the 'medicine' powder in it with a handkerchief, and helped her apply it to the wound.

'Juro ······' Haruhun didn't dare to scream, only exhaled.

Xiao Shilang was still silent, took off his robe and threw it to her, turned around and left.

...
