Chapter 12: The Dead Parrot (2)

Gu Qing couldn't help but snort softly, her mother has always behaved in the mansion and never went to Liuye's courtyard, why did such a thing happen today, and it was still on their heads?

Gu Qing couldn't stand this breath in her heart, so she didn't prepare anything, so she followed Gu Ning to Yuyuan, she had to see clearly today who threw this mess to them.

Yuyuan was quiet, the maids came and went without a trace of expression on their faces, in order not to make Liu Ye angry, they all changed into silent cloth shoes, so that they would not make a noise and let themselves be scolded in vain.

Gu Ning said that after knowing that Brother Parrot was killed by them, Liu Ye didn't even listen to Yu Niang's defense, so he locked her up in the firewood room.

Gu Qing only nodded silently, knowing it in his heart at this moment, and he also remembered his mother's words, so he would not mess around.

There is a light on in the room, Liu Ye is lying on the couch at the moment, Xiaocui is peeling melon seeds for her, gossiping, and there is a maid next to her who is pinching her legs and rubbing her shoulders, and she herself enjoys this process.

The door was not closed, Gu Qing heard the sound of talking inside, and he also knew the rules, so he stood outside the door and paused, and said in a clear voice: "Gu Qing has something important to discuss with the eldest mother, I wonder if the eldest lady is free?"

As soon as Liu Ye heard that it was her voice, she lost interest, and immediately changed her face, Xiaocui's face also changed slightly, and her hand peeling melon seeds shook, silently covering up the past.

"Madam, she must be fine, and she wants to fool you with her rhetorical mouth. Xiao Cui said busily, her eyes always paying attention to the changes in Liu Ye's expression, for fear that she would meet Gu Qing.

Liu Ye nodded, thinking that what she said made sense, so he gave her a look. Xiao Cui immediately understood, got up and walked to the door, didn't give Gu Qing a good look, closed the door, and said with arrogance: "Our lady is grief-stricken today and doesn't want to see anyone. ”

Seeing that the door was closed, Gu Ning was about to push it open, but was stopped by Gu Qing, she gasped, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Qing'er just learned that the eldest mother's parrot brother was killed, and she also knew that the eldest mother raised this parrot brother as her own child, this parrot brother is indeed very pleasing, Qing'er just wants to see it for the last time, I don't know if the eldest mother can agree?"

Before Liu Ye could make a sound, Xiao Cui hurriedly opened her mouth and said loudly: "This ...... You killed this parrot brother in the first place, but the second lady confessed for you, and you are embarrassed to come here now?"

At this time, Gu Qing was even more confused, where did she harm any parrot brother? Stayed in the Jade Ming Pavilion all afternoon, did she have a doppelganger technique? However, then again, although Ah Huan testified to her in this matter, no one wanted to believe that she had secretly gone out of the house to play, and it was impossible for her to say it directly. Now, it's harder.

But Xiaocui's attitude also made her strange, obviously she didn't say anything, but she wanted her to leave quickly.

Qing'er just wants to see the cause of this parrot's death, and she has never harmed any parrot brother, and I hope that the eldest lady will find out. "She is not afraid of shadows, and she will naturally not admit what she has not done.

"You still quibble......" Xiaocui immediately argued.

"Emily. Liu Ye suddenly interrupted and ordered Xiao Cui to open the door, she wanted to hear Gu Qing's defense, if it was really not her doing, then she couldn't let the murderer go unpunished.

Seeing Xiaocui open the door, Gu Qing said to Gu Ning beside him: "Sister, go back, it's enough for me and Ah Huan here." ”

Gu Ning is Liu Ye's biological daughter, if she stands with her at this time, she doesn't know what will cause more trouble. Gu Ning knew her thoughts, so she didn't object, she only explained a sentence to let her be well, and then turned around and left with the maid.

The light in the room was too dazzling, Gu Qing frowned slightly when she stepped in, Liu Ye stared at her, and instructed the maid on the side: "Go, bring my parrot brother." ”

The word end is used at this moment because Brother Parrot is already a small corpse and can't bring it up again.

Xiao Cui stood to the side, looking a little nervous.

"You say, Brother Parrot wasn't poisoned by you?" asked Liu Ye with raised eyebrows, his eyebrows full of disbelief.

Gu Qing was not afraid of her, so she straightened up her courage and asked truthfully: "Auntie thinks, what reason does Qing'er have to harm your parrot brother? What is the benefit of Yu Qing'er?"

Liu Ye thought for a moment, frowned, and said, "But your mother has already confessed." ”

Gu Qing sighed, as if shaking his head helplessly, "Auntie, you are also a mother, no mother wants her children to be punished for making mistakes, even if they are deceived, they are also willing for the sake of their children, are you right, auntie?"

"Of course. "The word mother is very great, so it will be very tiring, Liu Ye heard this, and felt the same.

Xiao Cui saw that Liu Ye's expression was a little moved, and she couldn't help but say: "Madam, this is just her rhetoric, you must not be deceived by her." ”

Liu Ye glared at her, and scolded softly: "Bastard thing, am I so confused that I can't distinguish between right and wrong?"

Xiao Cui's body shook, and she hurriedly lowered her head and muttered: "The slave is wrong, the slave is too talkative." ”

By this time, the maid who had been instructed to carry the corpse of the parrot had returned and placed it on the ground. I saw a rectangular plank, on which the parrot was lying, and his body was already stiff.

Gu Qing squatted down and looked carefully, not even letting go of the corners of his eyes, he had to raise his eyelids to check them, which made Liu Ye angry again and again.

"What kind of poison did it get into?" Gu Qing asked.

The maid on the side replied, "We don't know about this." This afternoon, Xiao Cui was the first to find out and notify us, she just said that Brother Parrot had been poisoned and died, and she didn't say anything about the poison. ”

Liu Ye didn't speak, agreeing with what the maid said.

Gu Qing swept his gaze to Xiao Cui, only to see that her eyes were cowering, as if she was hiding something from everyone. According to what the maid said just now, that is, everyone didn't know who the murderer was, but after listening to Xiaocui's words, they decided that she did it.

The body of the parrot was examined several times, and the death was normal, there were no symptoms of poisoning, but ...... When Gu Qing's hand touched Brother Parrot'er's belly, her brows tightened, she gently pinched it with her hand, her stomach was full of bulging things, and she had an answer in her heart.

She took the handkerchief handed by the maid, wiped her hands clean, and asked, "Who is raising this parrot on weekdays?"

Liu Ye raised her eyebrows, although the look on her face was very disdainful, but she also cooperated with her to answer the question, "I take care of it personally on weekdays, what's wrong?"

"Huh. Gu Qing picked up the parrot's corpse and looked left and right, and finally threw it on the wooden board with a bang, causing Liu Ye to slap the table and shout: "Give me a light." ”
