As soon as the morning dawned, Firecrackers and Ruyu secretly took Qiaohe Yunyang out of the house from the side door.

"Let's go! That's enough money to last you for a few years! ”

Ruyu threw a bag of silver taels into Qiao He's arms with a cold face.

"After leaving Heng Mansion, you will die and die!"

"It's all our fault! It's because we're obsessed with it for a while, so we ......"

"Okay, it's too late to say anything now, the second lady is kind and disdainful of you,

Go your separate ways, but I don't know if the man in black will let you go......"

Firecracker glanced at the two of them expressionlessly.

"We.... We'll be careful...."

Qiaohe and Yunyang said goodbye to them, hugged each other and left.

Firecracker and Ruyu glanced at each other, revealing an inexplicable smile.

At night, as soon as Qi lay down, he was woken up by the bustling shouting in the yard.

"What's the matter?" The second lady asked the maid who was keeping vigil outside the door.

"Madam, it's Aunt Xin who broke in with someone!"

The maid Qingyun pushed the door and stumbled in.

"Aunt Xin?" The second lady frowned, put on her clothes and shoes and socks, and wanted to go out to find out.

"Aunt Xin, what kind of trick is that thief and mother-in-law doing again?"

"Second lady!"

Before the Qi family reached the door, Aunt Xin led someone into the Dounan Pavilion first.

"What are you going to do in the middle of the night?"

The second lady stared at Aunt Xin in front of her with a cold face.

"Please come with me, Second Lady."

"Where are you going?"

"Go to the front yard, the lord is still waiting!"

Aunt Xin smiled grimly.

"Sir? The master wants to find me to come in person, is it your turn to come to my South Garden? ”

"Second lady, the slave maid is just on the orders of the master, and the master is angry now, I'm afraid he won't come to you in person."

"You.... What do you mean? ”

"Aunt Jiang is still crying in the front yard, please hurry up the second lady......"

Aunt Xin urged with a strange yin and yang spirit.

"Aunt Jiang?" The second lady frowned, and her heart was faintly uneasy.

Even if Aunt Xin was unpleasant, the prime minister's order could not be disobeyed, so he could only change into thick clothes and follow Aunt Xin to the front yard.

As soon as I stepped into the prime minister's Qianzhong Hall, I saw several concubines in the backyard standing in a row.

Jiang was sobbing as he sat on the ground, his shoulders trembling and looking very sad.

"What's this slut singing?"

The second lady was a little apprehensive in her heart, but after glancing at the eldest lady who was sitting on the side of the prime minister like a blank sheet of paper for a few times,

Suddenly arrogant again, Cheng Nianxi can't wait to come to see the play? I won't let her get her wish!

"Master, what are you looking for me so late?"

The second lady asked slowly.

"Sir! It's her! That's her! ”

As soon as Jiang Shi heard Qi Xiaoyun's voice, he immediately raised his head and shouted heartbreakingly.

"What is me?" The second lady didn't even lift her eyelids.

"It's you, it's you who killed my child!"

Jiang Pantao's eyes were red.

"Where do you start? You didn't even give birth to this child, so how could I kill him? ”

The second lady's signature eyes rolled and rolled.

"Sir! Listen to what she's saying! ”

Jiang's tears splashed, and he looked very pitiful.

"Enough! Xiaoyun, Jiang accused you of poisoning and murdering the fetus in her womb, what do you have to say? ”

"I murdered the fetus in her womb? I don't even know what the child in her belly looks like, why did I murder her? ”

Qi Xiaoyun sneered.

"Sister, don't mess around....."

Cheng Nianxi said on the side.

"Nonsense? She's the one who is messing around, right? Qi Xiaoyun pointed to Jiang who was kneeling on the ground:

"What proof do you have that I poisoned you?"

"Evidence? The whole concubine is evidence! ”

Jiang replied.

"Yes.... Master.... We have all seen the second lady often go in and out of Aunt Jiang's place before,

It's either to give her a look on the face or to make mocking remarks, and... also instigated the rest of the concubine to target Aunt Jiang together. ”

A little-known concubine said.

"Did I really instigate you to target her in the first place?"

Qi slowly approached the concubine who spoke just now: "If I remember correctly, I remember that your name is Zhong Ting,

Your father and Jiang Pantao's father work in the same mill, but they don't get along, and they seem to have a long-standing grudge?

When you targeted Jiang Pantao, was it really not for selfishness? ”

The concubine named Zhong Ting was frightened by her words and didn't dare to say anything more.

"In other words, I bullied her because I didn't like her, so what does it have to do with me hurting her children?"

The second lady pressed forward step by step, and Zhong Ting's face became more and more pale.

"Sister Qi, without evidence, we will never invite you over....."

The eldest lady opened her mouth to relieve Zhong Ting.

"Then take it out!" The second lady spread her hands: "Who wouldn't say just with one mouth?" ”

"When I was pregnant, you were the only outsider who frequented my yard.

I stay in my room for a long time every time! ”

Jiang glared at each other.

"Hahaha? That's it? You're trying to frame me?

You're afraid that your brain broke down during childbirth, right? ”

Qi Xiaoyun couldn't laugh or cry when she yelled.

"You!"

"Enough!" The prime minister was finally impatient with her arguing: "If you have any evidence, you can come up with it quickly." ”

"Yes! The concubine found a large amount of stork incense in the vase next to the dining table, and there was more than one place! ”

"Stork? Stork incense is the best incense to drive away evil spirits, Xi Yan country does not produce stork incense, even if there is, the price is high.

Because stork is very scarce, and there are a large number of safflowers, salvia can invigorate blood and qi, for pregnant people, more dangerous than musk,

So very few people buy and sell ......"

The eldest lady on the side answered questions.

"Just because storks are scarce and expensive, do you suspect me?"

The second lady asked.

"Naturally, it's not! I sent someone to check that you sent someone outside the government to buy stork incense at a high price last month. ”

"What if I buy it? I bought storks for my uncle's new house!

Just by you, are you still worthy of me buying storks at a high price to harm you? ”

The second lady didn't want to look at Jiang again, so she turned her head away in disgust.

"Aunt Xin! Have you ever searched Dou Nan Pavilion? ”

The eldest lady asked sideways.

"Yes, the slave has sent someone to search for ......"

"Why are you searching for Dou Nange?"

The second lady stopped hearing it!

"If not, the second lady doesn't have to be so nervous....."

Aunt Xin smiled sinisterly.

"What if you frame me in the process of searching?"

The second lady asked rhetorically.

"Second lady, please rest assured, the people who went to Dounan Pavilion to search were all the aunts in the front yard, and the slaves and maids did not stretch out their hands."

Aunt Xin replied.

"The devil believes in you...... It's really lacking in heart, whoever buys storks will hide it in the house. ”

The second lady pursed her lips dissatisfiedly and scolded in her heart.

"Sir! Master! The minions are back! ”

After a while, several aunts and sisters in the front yard rushed back to the front yard.

"How?"

The eldest lady sat up straight first.

"We're in.... A cloth bag was found in the cabinet of the second lady, and there was a great aroma in it.

Aunt Zhao sold incense at the border of Xi Yan in her early years and knew the smell of stork incense. ”

"Aunt Zhao?" The prime minister looked at Aunt Zhao who was standing at the end.

"Prime Minister, the fragrance in the cloth bag is indeed stork incense, if the master is afraid of disclosure, the slaves and maids can also take the incense ash inside to test."

Aunt Zhao walked out.

"What else do you have to say?" Only then did the prime minister turn his attention to the second lady.

"Yo, when did you hide in? The action is quite quick! ”

The second lady didn't seem to react much.

"You..... Are you questioning the housekeeper's aunt? ”

The prime minister slapped the table, which frightened the people around him.

"Master, she is clearly framed for a long time!"

The second lady stepped forward and slapped Jiang on the head a few times.

"You! ..... Master, she wants to kill the concubine after the East Window incident! ”

Jiang hugged his head and shrunk to the ground and wailed.

"I call you evil! I told you to frame me! I chant for your child every day, and you bite me in turn! ”

The second lady was pulled aside by several aunts.

"Sir! Master! Jiang Shi stood up with difficulty, and he was still a little dizzy when he couldn't care about his head: "Master, if she doesn't say it, I almost forgot,

At first, the concubine didn't think about this matter to Qi's family, but when she was bedridden in a miscarriage, she heard that she was reciting the Dizang Sutra in Nanyuan every day, wanting to overtake my child.

If she hadn't been a thief and guilty, how could she be so kind? ”

"You! You're such a slut who doesn't deserve sympathy! ”

The second lady was stopped behind by several aunts, but she still jumped high and wanted to rush out to teach Jiang a lesson.

After a few tosses, a few aunts who persuaded them were disheveled and disgraced.

"If you hadn't hurt me, and I was worried that my miscarriage child would turn into a ghost and seek revenge on you, why would you have to chant sutras every day?"

Jiang pointed at the second lady's nose and roared,

Turning around, he said to the prime minister with teary eyes: "Master! Master, all of the above is ironclad evidence, doesn't the master still want to believe it? ”

"Believe what?"

Before the prime minister could speak, the old lady stood outside the door.

"Old lady?"

The second lady, who was still dancing her teeth and claws just now, saw the old lady coming, and suddenly fell silent.

"Why is Mother here?" The prime minister hurriedly stood up.

The eldest lady on the side also stood up to greet her.

"There is such a big commotion, can I not come?"

The old lady's face was not good, and her face was full of sadness.

"I wanted to live in peace, but God didn't grant my wish.

Jiang, I've heard what you just said......

"Old lady....."

"You said that Qi recited the Buddha for your child because there was a ghost in his heart, so how many bad things did I have to do as an old woman who eats fasting and reads the scriptures every day?"

"Old lady...."Jiang Shi hurriedly explained when he heard this: "How can that poisonous woman be the same as the old lady, you are a bodhisattva, and chanting sutras is done with good intentions.

She has a tricky and eccentric temper, and she has never been kind to people! ”

"A bad temper does not mean that you will do evil things, and a docile temperament does not mean that you will not hide evil intentions....."

The old lady looked ahead, but she pointed out.

"Old lady, Aunt Zhao and they have already searched for evidence in Dounan Pavilion, and she can't rely on Qi's family!"

"Prime Minister, I remember the last time Shen Yuan framed the Qi family, wasn't it also conclusive?"

The old lady glanced at the prime minister who was in a dilemma.

"Yes......"

"It's not! Old lady, this time is different! ”

Jiang Shi knelt on the ground with a thud, and the sound of his knees hitting the ground sounded the second lady's scalp tingling.

"Old lady, everyone says that you are impartial, impartial, and will never favor the Qi family.

Please let the old lady decide for me! ”
