Chapter 212: Catching the Traitor in the West Garden

"An Ning, why did you call me out in the middle of the night?"

Firecrackers followed behind An Ning in their clothes.

"I'll take you to meet someone."

An Ning said mysteriously.

"Who?"

"Just follow me..."

An Ning tugged at her sleeve, and the two of them looked at a narrow alley.

Behind the alley there was a house with a fence that was more than a man high.

"What did you bring me here for?"

Firecrackers snorted and looked into the yard.

"Shhhh

An Ning pulled her aside, and the two of them crouched outside the fence, peeking into the courtyard along the gap in the fence.

"It's out."

An Ning muttered quietly, and the firecracker stuck its head on the fence,

Look, a man was walking towards the door with a wooden basin.

She got closer and closer, and by the candlelight in the room, the firecrackers could see her face clearly.

"Aunt Mo?"

She narrowed her eyes, trying to see more clearly.

But there was no scar on her upturned arm.

"Don't look at it, it's not Aunt Mo...."

An Ning turned around and patted her on the shoulder.

"That's?"

It's Aunt Mo's sister.

"No wonder, no wonder they look alike,

But it's different....."

"You told me last time, although Grandma Zhou exposed Aunt Mo,

But Aunt Mo found a witness, and I was very suspicious, and you mentioned the scar again,

I guess someone pretended to be Aunt Mo, and she stayed outside the house for several days.

Unexpectedly, I really asked me to catch Aunt Mo in brocade clothes and come to this yard to find her sister-in-law. ”

"It seems that Xiyuan has already taken precautions, so Aunt Mo will use her sister to hide from the world.

Speaking of which, what I saw that time was the one in the courtyard, not Aunt Mo,

Since my sister appeared in Hengfu, my sister must have gone out of the house to run errands.

An Ning, you still have to keep an eye on it for me. ”

Don't worry, I'll take care of everything outside the house.

An Ning nodded confidently.

"Cheng Nianxi, this time the sky wants you to die, I'll see how long you can still be beautiful."

In the West Garden, the eldest lady nestled in the bed and covered herself in the quilt.

She didn't know why Pear Blossom died, and she and Qi Zhongchen obviously lost her that day.

After she returned to the West Garden, she was in a panic all day long, but when she was planning to elope with Qi Zhongchen,

Heard the news that Rika is dead.

Then there was a nightmare haunting her all night, and she dreamed that Rika was crying blood and tears to ask for her life,

She cried and cried that she didn't kill her!

After waking up from the dream, Aunt Mo stared at her coldly, with a sneer on the corner of her mouth.

"Ma'am, it's time to take your medicine."

I'm not sick, what medicine do I take?

She shrank back to the foot of the bed.

"Madame naturally understands...."

Aunt Mo didn't wait for her answer, stepped forward and pinched her chin,

poured a bowl of decoction into her mouth, Cheng Nianxi struggled desperately,

But she couldn't get rid of Aunt Mo's restraint, drank half a bowl of medicine and sprinkled half a bowl on her.

"I just drank the medicine last month, and it's not yet half a year, why do you want to feed me?"

Her face was pale and her hair was disheveled.

"It's a reward."

Aunt Mo smiled grimly.

"I didn't kill anyone! I didn't kill that maid in Nanyuan! ”

The eldest lady said hoarsely.

"I see you're crazy..."

Aunt Mo saw that she didn't care whether anyone outside the house heard it at all,

Just like a mad beast.

"I told my wife before, don't act rashly again,

You're making such a big fuss now, I'm afraid it's not good to round the field,

Is killing a maid to vent her personal anger more important than the master's plan? ”

"I didn't, I didn't do it"

The eldest lady buried her head in the pillow and shivered.

"Madame has been taking care of herself lately, and I am going to be out of the house for a while,

If you don't listen to the advice, I won't be able to help you. ”

"What? She's leaving? ”

Cheng Nianxi was overjoyed, this old witch finally didn't have to stare at her anymore?

"I'll be back in just a few days, so Madame doesn't have to be too happy."

Aunt Mo saw her disgust, rolled her eyes, and turned to leave.

Three days later, four watches.

The front hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion is brightly lit,

Almost all the servants were crowded at the gate of the garden.

In the middle of the courtyard knelt a woman, her disheveled cheeks high and swollen,

Only whining and crying, firecrackers stood aside without saying a word.

She didn't expect that she would catch the private meeting between the eldest lady and Qi Zhongchen so quickly,

What I didn't expect was that the one who followed them to witness the adulterer and adulteress with their own eyes this time was actually the prime minister himself.

Last night, An Ning told her that Aunt Mo and her sister were out of the city,

She was shocked that something was wrong, she went to the West Garden to investigate, and Yan Zheng told her that Aunt Mo's clothes and jewelry were all gone.

"Is it possible that you are going to run away?"

She discussed with the second lady, Aunt Mo is gone, will Cheng Nianxi also escape?

"But why did she run away?"

Ruyu was puzzled.

"She killed so many people and didn't run away?"

"I don't understand, Xu is what handle he left behind when he killed Pear Blossom,

We didn't perceive it. ”

"But Aunt Mo has no reason to run away, unless she is an accomplice?"

"Maybe Aunt Mo was afraid of being affected by her, so she slipped away first."

The second lady knocked on her head, always feeling that something was wrong.

"In my opinion, Aunt Mo is even more ruthless than Aunt Xin, and Aunt Xin can still kill people without blinking.

How could Aunt Mo be so timid? ”

Firecrackers can't guess the clue of this, but they feel as if there are a pair of hands controlling everything.

She and Ruyu stayed in the West Garden, watching the eldest lady sneakily out of the side door with her burden on her back.

As soon as they chased them out of the house, they saw Mr. Li leading a group of subordinates to escort the masked lady and her lover towards the main gate.

It turned out that Prime Minister Ben found a secret letter in the study, informing him that the general was hiding in the mansion.

Tonight, at the beginning of the fourth watch, they met in the side courtyard, and he personally led people to guard it, but he didn't expect to wait for his wife and in-laws to prepare to elope.

Just when the prime minister tore off her black cloth with his own hands and was so surprised that he took three steps back, the second lady also happened to arrive in time.

She couldn't believe her ears when she heard Ruyu say that the eldest lady was caught by the prime minister in private!

Cheng Nianxi, Cheng Nianxi, you are smart, but you are also confused for a while, what does it feel like for a horse to stumble?

"Master, the concubine has long suspected that her sister has a private affair, but she has no evidence."

The second lady preemptively struck and never gave the eldest lady a chance to speak.

"Look who is next to her!"

The prime minister gritted his teeth and said.

"Uncle... Uncle! ”

She pretended to be incredulous.

"It's... How can this be....

Maybe it's a misunderstanding. ”

She tugged at the prime minister's sleeve:

"Although my uncle has not yet married a wife, he will never come to hook up with a married woman."

Her words seemed to excuse Qi Zhongchen again, but it was another ridicule in the ears of the prime minister.

"Not married yet? A married woman? Really! ”

He shook off the second lady and strode forward and grabbed the eldest lady's neck.

"Bitch, how have I ever treated you badly?"

"Hahahaha...."

The eldest lady who was choked by the neck did not laugh angrily, and her body was shaky.

"How dare you betray me!"

"Hahaha...."

"You still have a smile?"

The prime minister looked at her somewhat hideous face, and wondered if this woman was crazy?

"Why not? I've never been sincere with you! Why wouldn't I dare! ”

The eldest lady suddenly pushed away the prime minister vigorously, and stood up with a slight trembling,

"I hate you! I hate you all! ”

She pointed at the prime minister and shouted in a mournful voice.

"I don't love you, but I married you, I became a big lady, but I live like a dog!"

"You!" She pointed at the second lady, and the frightened second lady Qi couldn't help but take a step back.

"You're targeting me at every turn! pressed on my head everywhere, obviously I am the wife he is marrying,

She is the mistress of this Heng Mansion! Even if I have no feelings for my master, I can't allow you to dominate him! ”

"And you!" She suddenly turned towards the firecracker.

"You have hindered me again and again, and you have ruined my good deeds again and again! Why have you been unfaithful to me in the West Garden?

But he is so loyal to her side! ”

"The Great Lady..."

Firecracker was not frightened by her anger, and only stared at her eyes and replied word by word.

"To be a man is to compare the heart to the heart, and the lady wronged the slave and maid because of the pearl bird,

How can a slave be loyal to her wife? Madame has done all the evil things, and she still hasn't repented? ”

"Repentance? Why should I repent? You owe me everything!

You owe it to me! ”

The eldest lady seemed to be crazy and couldn't stop turning in circles.

"I owe you? Does the old lady owe you too? ”

"Old lady? Old lady, hehehe, old lady she doesn't owe me,

But she was wrong that she shouldn't have doubted me! She was wrong because she shouldn't stand with Qi Xiaoyun against me! ”

"So you poisoned her?"

Firecrackers took advantage of the victory and pursued.

"I ....."

"You stuffed the soul withered grass under the old lady's pillow, and when the old lady died,

Are you worried that I will find out about the East Window incident, so I lied to the master that I was poisoned and wanted to strike first? ”

"What did you say?"

When the prime minister heard her words, his eyes widened in surprise.
