Chapter 48: Dead Man
"Happy, but not happy. Mu Qianyan said lightly.
Qingshuang shook her head, "Slave... Don't understand?"
What does it mean to be happy and unhappy?
What's wrong with Miss?
She thinks that the relationship between Miss and Miss Cousin has always been very good?!
Looking at the breakfast on the table, Mu Qianyan had no appetite, and played with the gruel in the bowl with chopsticks, and said with a sigh, "Qingshuang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince marries a wife and concubine, it must be a woman who is beneficial to him." ”
"If my sister is not the concubine of the General's Mansion, do you think His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will marry her? ”
"Isn't it pitiful to serve a husband with many women, and how many of them are unknown, and to humbly pray for a man's mercy every day?
"If one day you are useless, and you get the result of abandoning yourself, what is there to be happy about?"
Listening to her calm words, Qingshuang was surprised.
I didn't expect the young lady to have such an idea......
Looking at Miss at this time, Qingshuang seems to have a kind of... The young lady has seen through the feeling of red dust.
Qingshuang frowned, "But Miss, don't say it's His Royal Highness the Prince, even if it's a rich family, three wives and four concubines are just ordinary, if Miss wants to say this, wouldn't all women in the world suffer?"
Qingshuang hesitated, but still said, "What's more...... Miss is going to marry someone in the future!"
Miss said that, could it be...... Do you want to get married?!
Qingshuang was even more shocked by her own thoughts!
This time, Mu Qianyan was stunned for a moment, Qingshuang was right, it is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, but a woman has to spend her whole life serving a man.
How unfair is it to women?
Mu Qianyan pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled sadly, if she said this, I am afraid that everyone will point at her and scold her for losing her morality, right?
Maybe only when she has died once, will she feel that this is an unfairness to women, right?
That's it, she hasn't even avenged her own revenge, so how can she take care of others?
She is not a savior bodhisattva, nor does she have a bodhisattva heart, what does it matter to her whether others live or die?
Mu Qianyan, what are you doing and you're starting to be sentimental again?
"Miss......"
"Ahh
As soon as Qingshuang wanted to say something, an amazing scream came from outside!
Mu Qianyan frowned, "What's going on?"
Qingshuang shook her head, "The slave doesn't know either!"
"Go out and have a look. ”
Mu Qianyan went out with Qingshuang to check, and when she heard the scream, it seemed to come from her yard.
"Ahh......h
Mu Qianyan followed the screams and walked over, in the side courtyard next door to her yard.
The side courtyard is the house where Qingshuang and the others live.
Mu Qianyan suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart, and her steps were faster.
I saw a maid lying on the ground shivering, and she was frightened at first sight.
The maid's face was already pale with fright.
"Peach, what's going on?!"
Qingshuang hurriedly went to help the frightened maid, that is, Tao'er.
It's with her, they're all people in Miss's yard, and Peach is the maid in the kitchen.
Why are you scared like this?
Qingshuang's support, Tao'er trembled with fright, and she couldn't say anything, "Sister Shuang...... In the well, in the well......"
Peach's trembling hand pointed into the well, and there was a well next to her.
Usually, the water in the yard is water from this well.
Mu Qianyan frowned fiercely when she saw Tao'er's appearance, pursed her lips tightly, and moved her steps to go to the well...
Tao'er was frightened, and when she saw Mu Qianyan approaching, she hurriedly pulled the corner of her skirt and stopped her in shock, "Miss, don't go...... Can't see... Dead, dead man......"
Dead?
Mu Qianyan's eyes suddenly sank, and her face became solemn.
Dead in the well?
Who is it......?
"I heard a cry in the yard of the eldest lady from a long distance, what is going on?"
Before Mu Qianyan could see who the dead man in the well was, Yao's voice came from behind him.
Immediately afterwards, I heard Mu Ziqing echoing Yao's voice:
"Yes, sister, why did the people in my sister's yard scream in surprise? But what happened?"
Even if she didn't have to look back, Mu Qianyan knew the smug faces of the Yao family mother and daughter.
The Yao clan came quite quickly, and Mu Qianyan guessed that the dead man in the well must have nothing to do with the Yao clan!
Thinking of this stubble, Mu Qianyan was not in a hurry.
She wants to see what kind of framing the Yao clan is playing?
Mu Qianyan glanced back at the Yao clan unhurriedly, her face was calm, "Why is my aunt here?"
"Oh, it's nothing, isn't this good news from the palace, the concubine went to inform Miss Biao, this Miss Biao may have been assassinated while swimming in the lake yesterday and was frightened, and she hasn't gotten up yet, but she heard a cry from the eldest lady here halfway, and the concubine was worried that something happened to the eldest lady, so she came to take a look. ”
Yao also said unhurriedly.
It's just that Mu Qianyan noticed that when Yao Shi spoke, the smug light in his eyes couldn't hide it.
And Mu Qianyan also heard some clues.
At this hour, Du Ruo hasn't gotten up yet?
Just as Mu Qianyan was contemplating and thinking, Mu Ziqing approached the well as if she was investigating.
In the next second, Mu Ziqing exclaimed, "Ah!"
The frightened flower pointed to the well, "It's dead...... There's a dead man in the well!"
Mu Ziqing deliberately raised her voice, for fear that others would not know that there was a dead person in the well!
"What??," Yao was startled.
Mu Qianyan clearly saw the smile on the corner of Yao's mouth, and saw that Yao's hurriedly called people, "Come on, quickly fish out the corpse in the well!"
Looking at the Yao mother and daughter singing and cooperating tacitly, Mu Qianyan guessed it in her heart.
Those who die in the well are afraid of ......
After a while, Li Wei rushed over with someone.
Seeing this scene, Li Wei probably understood.
Li Wei's thick brows furrowed, and he looked at Mu Qianyan with a worried face, "Miss, what's going on?"
"There's a dead man in the well! Li Wei, what are you still doing in a daze? Why don't you fish out the corpse quickly!"
Before Mu Qianyan could speak, the Yao clan took the lead in scolding Li Wei.
Li Wei's impatient brows furrowed, even if he was a rough man, he knew that this scene was not conducive to the eldest lady.
Li Wei asked Mu Qianyan with his eyes, completely ignoring Yao's instructions.
Yao's teeth itched, and a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes.
Hmph, Mu Qianyan, this time it's up to you to get away with it!
The Yao family has been in charge of the family for many years, and the momentum of coercing Li Wei is still there, "Li Wei, what are you doing slowly? ! This person died in the well in the yard of the eldest lady, why don't you hurry up and pick it up!"
On the surface, the Yao clan seemed to be worried about Mu Qianyan.
But the meaning of her words is emphasizing that people die in Mu Qianyan's courtyard!
In other words, Mu Qianyan is a murderer!
Even though the Yao clan reprimanded, Li Wei was still unmoved, just waiting for Mu Qianyan to give orders.
Anyone can see that Li Wei is biased towards Mu Qianyan.
Seeing that Yao's drama was so realistic, Mu Qianyan smiled, and her smile was light, "This well is dark and deep, and my aunt didn't even look at it, why is it so sure that it was a person who died in the well? Could it be that my aunt has clairvoyance?"
Mu Qianyan's indifferent tone did not hurt people's hearts at all.
On the contrary, it is leisurely, like a person who has nothing to do.
"Sister, I, I saw it! in the well, there was a man in the well!"
Mu Ziqing hurriedly stood up to defend the Yao clan, with a frightened expression on her face.
"My sister's eyes are so good, and she can see at a glance that there is a person in the dark and deep well. ”
Anyone with a little brain, as long as he thinks about it, he can hear the deep meaning of her words.
Yao and Mu Ziqing are so sure that it was a person who died in the well, didn't they just want to say that she was a murderer?
And she also guessed that it was indeed a person who died in the well.
By saying this, she was just trying to provoke another layer of thought from the 'living' about it.
The Yao clan is so determined, isn't it like he has known about the dead people in the well for a long time?
In other words, he deliberately wanted to frame her!
As long as you're not a fool, everyone has a brain.
If you want to talk about people's hearts, the most important thing is curiosity and suspicion.
If you follow her words and think about it, you can always think of something wrong.
Mu Qianyan is quietly splashing dirty water back on Yao's body!
Mu Ziqing was dumbfounded, looking at Mu Qianyan's indifferent face, Mu Ziqing faintly felt that she had fallen into a trap.
At this time, I am afraid that there are many mistakes, and I accidentally fell into Mu Qianyan's way!
Just don't talk nonsense with her.
Mu Ziqing thought about it, so she pulled the corners of her mouth and squeezed out a smile, "Sister, is it dead, just take a look at it!"
"That's right, whether it's a person dead in the well or not, just catch it and take a look!" Yao Shi followed Mu Ziqing's words, and looked at Mu Qianyan angrily, "Isn't the eldest lady dare?"
If she didn't dare to scoop up the corpses in the well, it would mean that she was weak-hearted!
Then prove that she killed the person!
Yao's mother and daughter are aggressive, and it is unlikely that they will not be picked up.
If you don't fish, you don't need to check it, she will become a wicked woman who murders people!
Mu Qian's face was indifferent, but she clenched her fists in private, maybe this time it was really going to be planted in Yao's hands.
She had to resign herself to her fate.
After being silent for a moment, Mu Qian's face did not change and ordered, "Uncle Li, go and scoop up the things in the well." ”
There was a moment of hesitation on Li Wei's face, "Miss......"
Although he is a rough man, he also knows the seriousness of this matter, and if he doesn't know it, the eldest lady will be charged with murder!
Mu Qianyan didn't speak, only turned her head to look at Li Wei.
Li Wei frowned, but he could only helplessly order someone to salvage the body.
Li Wei only hoped that the death was an insignificant maid, so that the eldest lady would at least not have to bear the charge.
From ancient times to princes and nobles, down to the rich family, who hasn't died a maid?
The life of the maid is the master's family.
It is a truth that the so-called king wants his ministers to die, and his ministers have to die.
If the person who died in the well was just a maid, the eldest lady would not need to bear the charge, but she would be notorious...... I'm afraid it can't be avoided!
Soon, the contents of the well were salvaged.
None of the people present were blind, but they were recovered, and they were corpses......
