Chapter 049: Who Commanded It

With Xiao Xiwei's words, cold sweat broke out on Ni Hai's forehead.

He never imagined that the Ni family had already written a divorce letter, but why didn't he hear any news in advance?

"Ni Gongzi, can you explain?" Seeing that Ni Hai was silent, Xiao Xi smiled and said again.

"This ...... This ...... "Rao is Ni Hai usually prides himself on being smart, but now he really doesn't know how to go back."

"Slandering officials of the third rank or above in the DPRK and China will be beheaded and executed according to the law of Da Yue. Did you know that? Xiao Xi said coldly with a calm face.

Ni Hai was startled, broke out in a cold sweat, and subconsciously looked at Mama Zhu beside the Li family.

"Ni Gongzi, what are you looking at? Could it be that in addition to Aunt Zhou, you still know the people next to you? Xiao Xi sneered slightly.

Xiao Yan's eyebrows twisted unconsciously.

Ni Hai is from Pingcheng and has never been to the capital before this. And the people in the Houfu have never been to Pingcheng except for Aunt Zhou, who is from Pingcheng, how can Ni Hai know the people in the Houchuli? Could it be......

"Dare to distract the people! Say, who is it that you are instructed to dare to come to my palace to make trouble! Xiao Yan slapped the table and stood up.

"I ...... I ......"

"Daddy, this kind of scoundrel depends on me, it's better to drag it out and beat it to death, so that others can know that we are loyal and brave to wait for the house, not just anyone who can come to the door to make trouble and splash dirty water!" Xiao Xi raised his eyebrows slightly, and his cold eyes swept past Ni Hai who was kneeling on the ground with some cruelty and coldness. Swept away by Xiao Xi's slight eyes, Ni Hai only felt a chill at the tip of his heart, as if he was in an iceberg and a cold pool, and the whole person was full of coldness. When she was secretly panicked and scared, unexpectedly, her eyes flickered, and she looked at Li Shiyan, who was sitting next to her, and smiled, "Mother, you said it?" ”

Facing Xiao Xi's smiling face, Li's right eyelid jumped twice.

Since this girl came back from Chao'an Temple, it was as if she had changed into a different person, and there was an evil energy all over her body, no matter what she did, she seemed to know everything about it. And this time...... She looked at Ni's divorce letter on the table, and a thought suddenly popped up in her heart - did she also calculate this matter early in the morning. The thought only flashed in her heart, and a chill rushed up from the soles of her feet.

"Wei'er is right! Such a scoundrel dares to slander our Houfu! Someone comes, plug his mouth, drag him out, and beat him to death immediately! Li stood up and shouted.

As soon as Li's voice fell, several servants who were five big and three thick immediately stepped forward to hold Ni Hai down, Ni Hai looked at this tent, and couldn't care about anything at the moment, and shouted at the top of his voice, "My lord, someone instructed me!" You spare your life...... "Before he finished speaking, his mouth was gagged, and only a 'whine' sound was heard in his throat.

When Li Shi heard this, he was horrified in his heart, "What are you still doing in a daze, and you don't pull him out." ”

"Mother, why don't you let him finish speaking?" Xiao Xi glanced at Li Shi and said lightly.

"Wei'er, this person is a ruffian at first glance, if he is allowed to yell and scream, he may not be able to say something unbearable." Li Shi Wen Yan looked at Xiao Xi and said slightly.

"Really? I think maybe what he said, my mother didn't want people to hear it. The corners of Xiao Xiwei's mouth tugged slightly, and then he walked to Ni Hai's side and pulled off the handkerchief that was blocked in his mouth, "You just said that someone instructed you to come to Houfu to make trouble?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Ni Hai, who had walked around from the ghost gate, nodded in a panic and said, "Someone took a hundred taels of silver for me to come, and said that he would give me another two hundred taels after the matter was completed." ”

"Who is that man? Can you be in this house? Xiao Xi said coldly.

Ni Hai turned his face and looked around, and finally raised his hand and pointed at Mama Zhu beside the Li family, "Yes...... It's her. ”

"Nonsense!" Mama Zhu's face changed, and then she knelt down in front of Li with a 'plop' and said with tears, "Madam, you must be the master of the slave and maid!" The slave maid has never been to Pingcheng, and she has never seen any Ni Gongzi. It was obvious that he wanted to run to the Houfu to extort the money, but when he saw that the matter was revealed, he poured dirty water on the slave and maid. ”

"Mama Zhu's words are strange, there are so many people in this house, but Ni Gongzi doesn't splash dirt on other people, but why did he choose you? Can you clear my mind for me? ”

"Wei'er, this person is clearly a scoundrel, how can you believe what he says!" Li said with a calm face.

"I'm just weird." Xiao Xi smiled faintly, turned to look at Xiao Yan and said, "Father, do you think Mama Zhu looks like the master in our waiting mansion?" ”

Xiao Yan frowned, "Wei'er, what do you mean by this?" ”

"Father, a discerning person can see at a glance that Mama Zhu is not the master of our Houfu, but Ni Gongzi poured this so-called 'dirty water' on her, and kept saying that Mama Zhu gave him a hundred taels of silver to let her come to Houfu to make trouble, and promised to give him another two hundred taels after the matter was completed. This kind of discerning person thinks it is a nonsense lie at a glance, but Ni Gongzi said it like this. Father, don't you think it's strange? Xiao Xi said slightly.

Listening to Xiao Xiwei's words, Xiao Yan's eyebrows tightened more and more.

Wei'er is right. If he really wants to pull someone into the water, how can he not choose Mama Zhu! It is impossible for a minion to come up with so much silver, unless it is ......

"If it were me, if I wanted to drag someone into the water, I would have to pull my mother anyway, so that people could be convinced." Xiao Xi raised his eyes slightly and looked at Li, and added another sentence with a smile.

This meaningful word made Li's face sink suddenly, "Wei'er, what are you talking about!" ”

"Why should Mother be angry, I'm just making an analogy." Xiao Xi replied indifferently.

"That's it!" Xiao Yan slapped the table and swept towards Li with a gloomy face.

If what Ni Hai said is true, then there is a chance that the Li family did it!

Although there was a flame burning in his chest, at this moment, the Li family could only endure it.

At this time, she must not mess with herself.

"Okay, you said that Mama Zhu instructed you! You've got proof! Are you sure that your silver was given to you by Mama Zhu? It's too child's fun to convict Mama Zhu just based on your words! Li Shi stared at Ni Haidao coldly with a calm face.

"I ...... Although the silver was not given by Mama Zhu, it was ...... But when I was collecting the cashier, I saw her hiding not far away. Ni Hai lowered his head and said in a low voice.

When Li saw it, he sneered a few times, turned his face to look at Xiao Yan and said, "Master, you see, it wasn't Mama Cui who gave him the silver at all." Pingcheng is so far away from the capital, and Mama Zhu has been waiting by my side, how could she go to Pingcheng to buy people to make trouble? What's more, he used a few hundred taels of silver to buy a dignified son of the Ni family? Isn't that suspicious? In my opinion, someone deliberately colluded with him to perform this play in front of the master, with the purpose of driving me to extermination! Li said, Douda's tears fell straight down like beads with broken threads, "Master, I know that you have a grudge against me, but now that I am like this, those people still look at me blindly, and they still come up with such a way to blame me...... What am I doing wrong? As a wife, I just don't want to share my husband with other women, I admit it...... I'm jealous, I'm angry, but ...... I'm just an ordinary woman, I don't care about those generosity, and I can't pretend to be ......"

Recently, Li's actions have made Xiao Yan lose face, and he has already piled up anger towards her in his heart. But now that I heard Li's words, thinking about what Li had done in the past, I suddenly felt that it was not so unforgivable.

Seeing that Li pretended to be pitiful and had a clear heart to act like this, and her father Xiao Yan's eyes were obviously a little shaken, Xiao Xiwei had to admire this woman. It's no wonder that she has been able to monopolize grace alone over the years, and even she has to admire her excellent acting skills.

Who is Mother talking about? Is it a grandmother? Or Aunt Zhou? Or...... It's me? Xiao Xiwei looked at Li Shi and smiled faintly, "Grandmother has been in poor health lately, and she has long been just asking about the affairs of the house, and Aunt Zhou naturally won't expose her shortcomings, so ...... I'm the only one left in the house who can frame my mother. ”

"I didn't say ......," Li said, pulling his handkerchief and wiping tears from his eyes.

Xiao Xi smiled, "Mother didn't say it, but Mother made everyone feel so." ”

"I believe this has nothing to do with Sister Wei'er." At this time, the old lady's majestic voice sounded.

She knew that Sister Wei was thoughtful, but she believed that she couldn't do it with such a method.

Xiao Xi looked at the old lady slightly, his eyes slightly moist.

She knew that in fact, the old lady had never liked her, because she felt that she was very thoughtful. However, today, at this time, she did stand up and say categorically that she believed her.

"Ni Gongzi, you said that when you collected the cashier, you saw Mama Zhu hiding aside? Are you sure? Xiao Xi looked down at Ni Haidao slightly.

Ni Hai nodded hurriedly, "I'm sure, although it was far away at the time, I could see that she had a small white jade pendant tied to her, and a corner was missing under the pendant. If you don't believe me, you can take a look. ”

When someone came to give him the silver, he kept an eye on it and deliberately looked around to see if there were any suspicious people, so he saw Mama Zhu hiding in the dark and sneaking around.

As soon as Ni Hai's words came out, Mama Zhu's face couldn't help but turn white.

She did have a small white jade pendant tied to her. The pendant was originally Li's, because it broke a corner and was rewarded to her, although the white jade is small, but the jade quality is indeed the upper layer, so although the horn was broken, she still often carried it, but I didn't expect that today it has indeed become a testimony for Ni Hai to identify her.

"It's just a pendant, maybe you saw it when you came in, so you talked nonsense." Li said with a calm face.

"Mother's words are really strange. There are so many people with jade jewelry in this house, but Ni Gongzi didn't see anyone, so he saw this small pendant tied to Mama Zhu's body! Could it be that the pendant on Mama Zhu's body is the most unusual? Can people fall in love at a glance? Xiao Xi smiled.

The corners of Li's lips moved, "If someone deliberately framed it, then it would be nothing unusual." ”

"That's right." Xiao Xi nodded slightly in agreement, and then raised his voice, "Let him come in!" ”

As she spoke, a man of about twenty or so was half-pushed in by several stout servants.

When Mama Zhu saw someone coming, her face changed, and she shouted out of control, "Da Niu, what's wrong with you?" ”
