Chapter 31: Exoneration
"Everyone stand down, Aunt Yao stays, I still have someone, Aunt Yao should meet." ”
Mu Qianyan named the Yao family to stay.
Most of the others are subordinates of the house.
Especially after seeing Mu Qianyan kill with a cane, when they heard Mu Qianyan order to retreat, they all seemed to be relieved, and it was true that they had a feeling of picking up a life.
Only the Yao clan looked at her cautiously and defensively.
Is there less trouble Mu Qianyan has brought her today? Why did you just leave her? It looked like she was going to interrogate her, so that people could see it, what prestige did she have at all?!
The more Yao thought about it, the more angry he became, but he couldn't help Mu Qianyan!
The men retreated, and the scene suddenly became empty and quiet.
Mu Qianyan drank tea leisurely, looking unhurried and impatient.
But the more calm she was, the more impatient Yao's heart became!
After being quiet for a while, Yao Shi couldn't help but ask, "Is there anything else to do with the eldest lady?"
"There is a person who also asked my aunt to meet, and this person's aunt also recognizes it, but what she said has something to do with my aunt, so I asked my aunt to stay. ”
Mu Qianyan said lightly, as if she was saying something ordinary that could no longer be ordinary.
But in Yao's heart, the alarm bell of precaution rang again, and a bad premonition came to his heart, and he asked cautiously, "Who is the eldest lady talking about?"
Mu Qianyan tilted her head and glanced at Qingshuang.
Qingshuang understood, retreated and asked someone to bring up Qingling, who was tied up with five flowers.
As soon as he saw Qingling being tied, a trace of panic flashed in Yao's eyes, and his fingers nervously pinched the silk handkerchief, and soon covered it up well.
Yao Shi settled down and asked calmly, "Miss, isn't this the maid who serves you, why did you tie her up?"
Yao's knowingly asked questions completely dispelled Qingling's last bit of luck.
She knew that she was an outcast, and the Yao family would not protect her.
Mu Qianyan saw it in her eyes, but she didn't seem to know, "Qingling, say what you said to me again." ”
I've cried and cried, and I've begged for mercy, Qingling has probably recognized her ending, and it's much quieter now.
"The slave and maid are guilty, and the slave and maid obeyed the orders of Aunt Yao's and bribed the thieves to harm the young lady, the slave and maid...... But I beg to die to atone for my sins, and I only ask the young lady to be kind to the slave's family. ”
Qingling speaks clearly, and the whole person is exceptionally calm, not crazy or troublesome, and it is true that she has repentance.
But Yao's family was not calm when he heard this, "Bold and bold, you little, you dare to slander me!"
Yao jumped to his feet angrily and pointed at Qingling angrily, "You say!Who instructed you to slander me?!"
With a backbite, Yao's wanted to confuse the public in one fell swoop.
The subtext in her words was that Mu Qianyan instructed Qingling to slander her.
Qingling has already realized that she has become an outcast, and she can't escape death, so where is she still afraid of the Yao family?
"Auntie doesn't admit it, the slave knows that she is soft-spoken, but the money that the aunt buys the slave and maid is hidden under the bed in the slave room, if the eldest lady doesn't believe it, send someone to search for it!" Qingling said categorically.
The money that Yao bought her bounty was hidden under the bed, and before she could take it home for her family, she was going to lose her life...
Qingling left tears of remorse, only hating that she hadn't woken up earlier.
In fact, the best person to treat her is the eldest lady.
If it weren't for her betrayal, the eldest lady would never have treated them harshly as slaves.
It was she herself who was blinded by money for a while, so she made a big mistake.
Today, there is no room to make up for it......
Yao was startled, and glanced at Qingling fiercely, this cheap maid actually collected the money she rewarded!
When Yao raised her head, Mu Qianyan was looking at her with a smile.
That glance made Yao's heart 'chuckle' for a moment, and he calmly squeezed out a smile, "The eldest lady shouldn't listen to the nonsense of a cheap maid, right?"
Mu Qianyan smiled, "Is it nonsense, don't you send someone to search for it?"
She didn't expect that Qingling would still have such a hand.
It seems that leaving Qingling is not useless.
Yao tried his best to suppress the panic in his heart, and his mind kept thinking about what to do.
The eyeballs rolled and rolled, Yao's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he said with a frank smile, "Since the eldest lady said so, the concubine's body is not afraid of shadows, so I will send someone to search for it." ”
Seeing Yao's frank face, Mu Qianyan squinted slightly.
Fang Cai obviously saw the panic in Yao's eyes, how could he suddenly become calm?
As if in order to prove his innocence, the Yao family also personally asked someone to search Qingling's house.
During this period, Mu Qianyan drank a new cup of tea.
It was only half a cup of tea, and the people who searched the house talked back and forth.
Looking at the two palace guards who came to talk back, all of them were empty-handed, Mu Qianyan knew that the Yao family was afraid that he would get away with it again this time.
"Miss Hui, auntie, no money was found in Qingling's house!"
One of the guards reported.
"No way! Have you searched carefully? It can't be that there isn't one!"
Qingling was the first to be excited, she didn't find any evidence, what did she do to make others believe her?
How could it not be? She was hiding under the bed!
"Miss, you also heard, how can there be any money? According to the concubine's body, it is clear that this cheap maid is bold and deliberately framed the concubine, and she should be killed with a cane!"
Especially in the last sentence, Yao's words were gritted and his fierce tone made Qingling tremble all over.
"No... No, I beg the eldest lady to believe the slave maid, and what the slave and maid said is true! The slave really didn't lie to you!"
Qingling immediately cried and defended herself, What she said was true, she didn't know, why was the silver money given to her by the Yao clan gone?!
Qingling was guilty, but her remorseful crying at this time seemed to be full of sincerity.
In fact, Mu Qianyan knew that Qingling was not lying.
But what is the use of what she knows? Without evidence, no matter what Qingling says, it is just one-sided, and there is no convincing at all.
Who would believe a slave or a slave who had made a big mistake.
"Dare to quibble! I see that you don't shed tears when you don't see the coffin!" Yao glared at Qing Ling viciously, a murderous aura flashed in his eyes, and commanded with great momentum, "Come on! Drag this down and kill her with a cane!"
The two words of cane death fell into Qingling's ears, which immediately stunned her, as if all her strength had been drained, despair shrouded her heart, and the whole person was weak.
As soon as the Yao clan spoke, soon a guard came to drag Qingling away.
"Don't ......" Qingling struggled, she didn't want to be killed by the cane, and looked at Mu Qianyan with the last glimmer of hope, "Miss, don't be a slave to death...... Ask the eldest lady to give the slave a good time...... Slaves and maidservants do not die with rods..."
She didn't want to die so miserably......
I just ask Mu Qianyan to give her a happy death.
The Yao clan was afraid that Mu Qianyan would be prayed by Qingling, so he immediately angrily scolded the guards, "What are you doing in a daze, don't drag it out!"
"It's... Yes!" The two guards were startled, and hurriedly dragged Qingling down...
Mu Qianyan frowned slightly, and a trace of condensation flashed in her eyes.
Qingshuang also couldn't bear it, and wanted to open her mouth several times, but when she saw her young lady's face was cold, and if she pleaded for Qingling, she couldn't open her mouth.
The young lady said that what she hated most was betrayal.
How do you want her to intercede for Qingling?
Just as Qingling was about to be dragged out of the main hall, Mu Qianyan suddenly spoke:
"Wait. ”
Yao Shi was suddenly startled, she thought that Mu Qianyan would not speak, should she suddenly regret it?
"Miss, what are you doing?" the Yao clan was a little unsure of what Mu Qianyan meant?
Qingling is a scourge to stay, so she must die.
Yao thought viciously in his heart.
Mu Qianyan walked into Qingling unhurriedly, Qingling looked at her with teary eyes, praying for her to have a trace of pity.
Mu Qianyan retracted her gaze at Qing Ling, and said in a flat tone, "No matter what Qing Ling says, she is also my slave, and it is up to me to punish her. ”
Mu Qianyan just said it, and slapped her in the face verbally!
Yao's angry face was called an ugly one.
The account of the last punishment of Qiu Ci, she hasn't settled it with Mu Qianyan yet!
Mu Qianyan actually mentioned this stubble so arrogantly!
It's unbearable!
Yao's heart was already angry with two Yao's.
One said he couldn't bear it, and the other said he wanted to endure it.
Mu Qianyan is obviously coming for her today, if she can't bear it at this time, won't she give up all her efforts?
Yao's resentful eyes, when he looked at her, his eyes were almost bursting with fire.
If there is a lot of anger in the Yao clan, how calm Mu Qianyan is.
One anger and one quiet, this contest, in which the superior and the inferior are immediate.
In the end, Yao gritted his teeth and compromised, "The eldest lady said that she laughed, how could the concubine be overstepping, then ask the eldest lady to deal with this!"
As long as Qingling dies, whoever disposes of it will be the same.
This is the biggest concession in Yao's heart.
Qingling knew that she would definitely die, but if the young lady dealt with her, she would not suffer more from flesh and skin, right?
Being able to have a happy death is also a kind of kindness for Qingling in the end.
Mu Qianyan glanced at Qingling deeply, and there was a struggle in her heart about whether to kill or not.
In the end, Mu Qianyan seemed to have made a decision, not to look at Qingling, but only coldly ordered, "Drive Qingling out of the mansion and don't appear in front of me from now on." ”
Mu Qianyan's words undoubtedly spared Qingling's life.
Qingling didn't seem to expect Mu Qianyan to spare her life...
Tears of remorse poured out again, picking up a life, and Qingling kowtowed to Mu Qianyan a few times.
"Slave... The slave and maid thank Miss for not killing her, Miss is kind to the slave and maid, the slave and maid will be a cow and a horse in the next life, and then come back to Miss ......"
Qingling's gratitude to Mu Qianyan in her heart cannot be expressed in a few words.
But when Mu Qianyan heard this, her face became colder and colder, and her soft voice revealed a hint of coldness, "You are not allowed to appear in front of me in the next life." ”
At that moment, Qingling was stunned.
Miss...... It's really disgusted with her.
"I'm sorry miss......" In addition to being sorry, Qingling didn't know what else she could say.
It was she who betrayed Miss first, no wonder Miss was cruel to her.
No, Miss is not ruthless, and it is already a great kindness of Miss to save her life.
However, Yao's reaction was half a beat slow, and he immediately stopped doing it, "Miss! Qingling made such a big mistake, and the eldest lady just kicked her out of the house, is the punishment too light?!"
From his face alone, he could see that the Yao clan opposed Mu Qianyan's approach.
