Yao Shi was startled when he heard this, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and he pulled the corners of his mouth and said with a smile, "My lord... Yaofu is the concubine's maiden ......"

In fact, Yao's heart was weak to death, thinking to himself why did this Zheng Hong remember so clearly?!

Since Du Ruoyi came, she didn't squeak and tried her best to reduce her sense of existence, but she didn't expect it to be pulled on her head!

Zheng Hong has been in the officialdom for many years, since this matter involves Yao Jizhong, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, then Yao is the sister of Yao Jizhong, if it is said that there is no greasy in it, is it possible?

Zheng Hong looked at Yao with a suspicious gaze, "......"

"Your Excellency, you are wrong. ”

As soon as Zheng Hong opened his mouth, before he could say the words, he was suddenly interrupted by Mu Qianyan.

Hearing Mu Qianyan's interjection, Zheng Hong was puzzled, "Where did the official say wrong?"

Isn't Yao Mansion the Yao family's mother's family?

For a moment, Zheng Hong thought that Mu Qianyan was going to speak for the Yao family?

Even the Yao clan looked at Mu Qianyan suspiciously, looking at what she wanted to do?!

Mu Qianyan smiled faintly and said without squinting, "My lord, the Yao family is just a concubine in the mansion, not a lady, how can this concubine be confused with the main wife? How can a concubine be called a lady? Our Hou Mansion can't afford to lose this face." ”

“......”

Zheng Hong choked, and there was a moment of embarrassment and surprise on his face.

I didn't expect Mu Qianyan to emphasize this?

However, in the noble family, there is indeed a big difference between wives and concubines.

Especially the higher the status of the mansion, the greater the difference in dignity and inferiority.

Yes, Zheng Hong also understood that Mu Qianyan deliberately wanted to emphasize that the Yao family was just a concubine.

"What Miss Mu said is that the official lost his words. Zheng Hong is very humane and compensates Mu Qianyan.

Mu Qianyan smiled at the corner of her mouth, and her attitude was respectful, "Your Excellency is polite, don't blame those who don't know." ”

And the most ugly face is Yao's.

His face was as ugly as being slapped twice in public, blue and white for a while!

The anger that swelled up in her heart caused her chest to rise and fall heavily.

A pair of eyes were as cruel as shattered poison, glaring at Mu Qianyan fiercely, eager to tear her apart on the spot!

Mu Qianyan actually slapped her in the face like this, embarrassed her, and humiliated her!

The word concubine pierced her heart like a knife!

If the two words of concubine are Mu Ziqing's sore feet in her life, then the two words of concubine are also the sore feet of Yao's life.

The sore feet of their mother and daughter were pinched in Mu Qianyan's hands, and she stepped on them when she had the opportunity!

Mu Qian's face did not change and smiled lightly at Yao's family, and her cold eyes flashed with a sarcastic cold light.

She just said two sentences, so she can't stand it?

In fact, Mu Qianyan knew that what Zheng Hong wanted to ask was about Yao Jizhong's kidnapping of Du Ruo, could the Yao family know?

But she also knew that Yao would deny it.

Besides, she even knows this matter in her heart, not to mention that Zheng Hong is still a person who has been in officialdom for many years.

It's just that there is no direct evidence to prove that it is related to the Yao family.

It's just that Zheng Hong just asked casually with doubts.

Moreover, even if Zheng Hong suspects the Yao family, she will protect the Yao family!

Mo said that this matter can't help the Yao family at all, even if Yao Jizhong confesses to the Yao family, it is just a one-sided statement, and the Yao family is not impossible to turn against the Yao Mansion in order to protect themselves.

It's not that Yao can't do this kind of thing.

Du Ruo secretly squeezed her hand, and she could see it from Du Ruo's eyes, Du Ruo wanted to say that she had finally woken up and was no longer deceived by the Yao clan.

Yes, she died once before she woke up, Mu Qianyan deeply felt how stupid she was in her previous life?

In her previous life, Du Ruo persuaded her more than one to beware of the Yao clan and not to believe in Mu Ziqing so much.

But she was blinded by lard, and she couldn't listen to Du Ruo's advice, and finally ended up with a bad death.

And now, she is just two verbal sarcasm, can't the Yao family stand it?

Thinking about it, the sneer on the corner of Mu Qianyan's mouth expanded a little, Yao's, you have to stand it for me, if you don't see your mother and daughter, it's better to die, how can you repay my blood debt?

"Yao Jizhong's case of kidnapping Miss Du, can you know about Yao's?"

Zheng Hong still asked a question that Mu Qianyan expected.

Mu Qianyan also followed him, and in his position to seek his position, in Zheng Hong's charter, he should indeed ask.

Yao gritted his teeth, his face was panicked, he held the silk handkerchief tightly in his hand, and was about to speak......

"My lord, the little girl has something to say. ”

Unexpectedly, Mu Qianyan opened her mouth faster than her, and took the lead in one step.

Immediately attracted Zheng Hong's attention again, and Zheng Hong looked at Mu Qianyan suspiciously.

Why did he feel that this Miss Mu seemed to have a feeling that everything was under control?

He just followed the process to ask the Yao family one or two, might as well this Miss Mu had something to say again and again?

What did she want to say this time?

Zheng Honghu was suspicious, but he still said, "What does Miss Mu want to say?"

"Back to my lord, the little girl believes that Aunt Yao has nothing to do with this case. ”

As soon as Mu Qianyan said this, everyone present was suddenly surprised.

She actually excused the Yao family?

Didn't Fang Cai deliberately step on the Yao clan?

Zheng Hong looked at her with an incomprehensible look, "Does Miss Mu know what she is talking about?"

The victim at the beginning of this case was herself, didn't she forget that it was the Yao family who sent her to Jingzhao Mansion to surrender?

As long as you think about it a little deeply, it is not difficult to think that this case is not aimed at Du Ruo, but her Mu Qianyan!

Such a calculation of killing two birds with one stone, Zheng Hong was impressed.

Now it is involved in Yao Jizhong, strictly speaking, the Yao family also has suspicions and motives for committing crimes.

That's why he had to ask Yao a question or two.

But now Mu Qianyan can still repay De with grievances and speak for the Yao clan?

Zheng Hong couldn't understand her more and more.

If Zheng Hong was surprised after listening to her words, then the Yao clan was more on guard after a moment of surprise.

She didn't believe that Mu Qianyan would be so kind to speak for her!

Maybe there's some bad idea to hurt her!

Yao Shi was on tight guard, watching Mu Qianyan's next moves.

And Mu Qianyan felt that Du Ruo, who was beside her, pinched the back of her hand and shook her head gently.

Mu Qianyan knew that Du Ruo objected to her speaking for the Yao clan.

Mu Qianyan turned over and quietly patted Du Ruo's hand, smiled at her, and silently comforted her.

She knew that Du Ruo was worried about her.

So under the expectation of Zheng Hong and Yao's family, Mu Qianyan spoke quietly:

"My lord, it's not for nothing that the little girl believes in Aunt Yao. ”

"First, Aunt Yao and Yao Jizhong are brother and sister, but the daughter who can marry out is like water spilled out, Aunt Yao has already entered the Hou Mansion, naturally even if we are from the Hou Mansion, just ask which is more important in the Hou Mansion and the mother's family, Aunt Yao must have a number in her heart. ”

"Second, Aunt Yao has been following the rules in the house for many years and treating people kindly, and the little girl, as the victim of this case, is willing to guarantee Aunt Yao, and please discern the adults. ”

Mu Qianyan's words are reasonable, and it is rare to see such a person who repays virtue with grievances.

On the surface, she is speaking for the Yao family, but in fact, she wants to take the lead in cutting off the involvement between the Yao family and her mother's family, so that the Yao family and Yao Jizhong will turn against each other.

If Yao Jizhong confesses to the Yao clan after Zheng Hong returns for interrogation, it will make them turn against each other.

But if the Yao clan abandons Yao Jizhong here first, the effect of turning against each other will naturally be very different.

The abandoned party is always the most chilling.

In this way, the Yao family will have no support from her mother's family in the future, even if she dies in the Hou Mansion in the future, the Yao family is afraid that no one will collect her body for her.

Zheng Hong thought about it a little, and also felt that what Mu Qianyan said made sense.

Moreover, this has been delayed for a while, and King Yue is still waiting for him.

Thinking about it, Zheng Hong was in a hurry to leave, "Since there is Miss Mu as a guarantor, then the official will leave first, and Miss Mu will stay in the house and wait for news." ”

After Zheng Hong finished speaking, he strode out.

The two subordinate officials came forward to take over Du Ruo from Mu Qianyan.

He wanted to take Du Ruo back to Jingzhao Mansion to testify.

Confessions without witnesses are not good.

Du Ruo understood, silently comforted Mu Qianyan, and then let the official help her go.

Zheng Hong left, and the scene suddenly became quiet.

Only 'my own family' remains, but it is much more comfortable.

Mu Qianyan exhaled a breath of turbid air without showing a trace, sat down in the right seat leisurely, and glanced at Yao Shi indifferently, "Auntie's face is not very good, isn't it because Yao Jizhong committed a crime, and her heart is sad?" Or is it ...... Is my aunt really as Master Zheng just said, knowing the details behind this case?"

Mu Qianyan smiled at the corner of her mouth, expecting that when Zheng Hong interrogated, he would convey to Yao Jizhong that the Yao clan denied killing Du Ruo.

Just now she could see it, Zheng Hong thought that she was repaying virtue with resentment and speaking for the Yao family.

The corners of Mu Qianyan's mouth rose, revealing a faint sneer, repaying virtue with resentment? She is not repaying virtue with resentment, she just wants the Yao clan to be isolated and helpless from now on.

Yao's angry teeth itched, and hatred surged in his heart!

But now, she has no choice, and Mu Qianyan has cut off her retreat again.

Even though his eyes were full of hatred, Yao could only pull the corners of his mouth and laugh dryly, "What did the eldest lady say, the concubine really never thought that her brother would do such a thing, so that the eldest lady was wronged, and the concubine made amends to the eldest lady on behalf of her brother!"

Yao said, gritting his teeth and bowing to her.

Mu Qianyan smiled brightly, "Auntie didn't say it anymore, Auntie doesn't know about this matter, don't blame those who don't know, I will make the plotters behind me pay the price for the grievances I suffered." ”

Mu Qianyan's tone was light, but the Yao clan seemed to have pressed down a big stone in his heart, and his heart sank.

Why did she think Mu Qianyan was speaking gloomy?

Looking at Yao's weak face, Mu Qianyan smiled gracefully, "I'm tired, I'm going back to rest, auntie, take care of yourself." ”

After speaking, he didn't even look at Yao's, and went back to his yard.

Mu Qianyan was indeed tired, nervous all day, exhausted.

Fortunately, Du Ruo came back safely, and he was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

After Mu Qianyan returned to the room, she slept deeply, peacefully, and without nightmares.

Since when does she seem to be haunted by nightmares anymore?

In her sleep, she seemed to smell a very smelly fragrance, which seemed strange and familiar, and it seemed as if someone was saying something in his ear......
