Chapter 394: She's Framed
After receiving Ling Ruoyi's affirmative answer, Yuan Hao decided to find out the person who poisoned him, "Princess Qi, Yuan Hao is grateful to you for saving my mother, but Yuan Hao still has something to ask for." Yuan Hao respectfully clasped his fists and saluted.
"Yuan Gongzi doesn't have to be polite, Ling Tang's body will recover in a few days, and I will prescribe another prescription later, and after the old lady recovers, use this prescription to slowly recuperate, and she will definitely be healthy." Ling Ruoyi said lightly.
"The princess is known to be very wise, and I asked her to help me find out who murdered my mother." Yuan Hao pleaded again.
"Yuan Gongzi, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, I'm just a doctor, it's my responsibility to treat the sick and save people, as for the affairs of your mansion, I am not suitable to interfere."
"Princess Qi, Yuan Hao begged you to help me find the murderer, today you saved my mother's life, if there is anything you need for me Yuan Hao in the future, Yuan Hao will definitely go all out."
Haha, what Ling Ruoyi wants is Yuan Hao's words, this Yuan Hao looks like a merry boy on the surface, but in fact he is much more shrewd than those so-called aristocratic sons, no wonder he will be relied on by King Rui.
Things have developed to this point, the women in the Yuan Mansion, some people can't sit still, this Princess Qi's intelligence is known to the world, and even the poison of the seven-star centipede can be solved, so what is impossible to catch the murderer behind the scenes.
"Childe, our Yuan Mansion has always been peaceful, since Sister Xiao entered the mansion, it didn't take long for the old lady to have such a thing...... " Jing said lightly.
Hearing this, Yuan Hao looked at Xiao Shanshan coldly, and Xiao Shanshan knelt on the ground, "Childe, this matter has nothing to do with Shanshan, it really wasn't Shanshan's doing." ”
"My sister doesn't have to be in a hurry to shout grievances, let my son go to my sister's yard to check it out, if there is nothing, it just happens to give my sister an innocence." This is very clear, and the meaning is what Xiao Shanshan did, but she is a weak woman, without the backing of a strong family, and she is a newcomer to the Yuan Mansion, how dare she be so bold to do these things, but these words, Ling Ruoyi can't say them for the time being, and she can't be convicted until the murderer behind the scenes jumps out himself.
"Okay, the concubine will ask the son to go to my yard to check." Xiao Shanshan said lightly.
After a while, Yuan Hao led people to the Taohuawu where Xiao Shanshan lived, and the family searched privately and did not find any poisonous or poisonous utensils.
"Back to Gongzi, there is nothing in the fifteenth aunt's room." A family member said respectfully.
"Yes." Yuan Hao bowed slightly, his face softened a lot, and he was about to open his mouth to appease Xiao Shanshan, when the Jing family spoke again.
"Childe, the concubine thinks that you don't necessarily have to get a centipede to murder the old lady, it is very likely that other methods are used."
"Something else? For example? Yuan Hao wondered.
"Childe has ever heard of witch Gu? The concubine heard that as long as she practiced witchcraft on the day of the sting, she could achieve her wish. Jing whispered in Yuan Hao's ear.
Hearing this, Ling Ruoyi hooked her lips and smiled, sure enough, the woman in this Yuan Mansion is nothing more than that, using some small means, but this seven-star centipede is not an ordinary thing, how did the other party get the seven-star centipede to the Yuan Mansion, so why do you want to hurt the old lady? It's incomprehensible.
Yuan Hao pondered for a moment, "Come on, dig this peach blossom dock three feet into the ground, and see if anyone uses witchcraft to murder the old lady." ”
"Yes." The family responded to the call to go down, and after a while, they found shovels and other things, and began to dig in the courtyard of Taohuawu, and after a while, they dug out a few puppets in the corner of the wall, which were written Qingyang Hou, the old lady, and Yuan Hao's birthday.
Yuan Hao was holding three puppets, his hands were trembling, there were people looking forward to the death of their whole family, what a lot of hatred this must be, he must find out this person and crush her bones to ashes to relieve the hatred in his heart.
"Princess, what do you think about this?" Mengchun whispered in Ling Ruoxi's ear.
"Do you believe in witches?" Ling Ruoyi asked instead of answering.
"This ...... The slave maid didn't know that since there was a matter of beating villains on the day of the sting, it meant that this witch thing was still useful. Mengchun said lightly.
Hearing this, Ling Ruoxuan didn't speak, just smiled faintly to see how Yuan Hao would deal with this matter.
"Xiao Shanshan, what else do you have to say?" Yuan Hao took the puppet and said coldly.
"Childe, this matter is really not done by the concubine, the concubine is wronged." Xiao Shanshan knelt on the ground and cried.
But where would Yuan Hao listen to her explanation, he would rather kill by mistake than let go, if there is such a person by his side, he will undoubtedly put the life of the whole family on the charcoal, he can't do this, fortunately, every woman in this house is not his favorite, and if it is gone, it will be gone.
"Wronged? Something was found in your yard, what else do you have to say? Yuan Hao said coldly.
"The things were found in my yard, but these things really weren't made by me, besides, I went back to my parents' house a few days ago, and I was already stunned when I came back, how can I have time to do these things." Xiao Shanshan cried.
Hearing Xiao Shanshan say this, Ling Ruoshan nodded slightly, this Xiao Shanshan is not too stupid, she knows how to save herself at this crisis juncture, and Xiao Shanshan can live safely in the Yuan Mansion.
"That makes sense, but how do you explain that something was found in your yard?" Yuan Hao frowned.
"This ...... Someone must have framed the concubine. ”
"There are so many women in the house, others are not harmful, but they harm you? Why? ”
"This ......, this ...... The concubine doesn't know either. Xiao Shanshan was speechless for a while, God knows why someone harmed her as soon as she entered the mansion, she is not a wife, but she is just a little concubine.
"You don't know, but I do." Ling Ruoyi spoke lightly.
"Oh? What is the Princess's opinion? Yuan Hao was surprised. I thought that Ling Ruohui would watch from the sidelines like this, but I didn't expect that she was willing to help this Xiao Shanshan, didn't the Xiao family have an enmity with the Ling family?
"The scourge of witchcraft has existed since ancient times, but unfortunately, these are all false things, and it is just that someone wants to use the name of witchcraft to harm others. Xiao Shanshan returned to the door three times ago, and that person must have buried these puppets in the ground without knowing it when she was away. ”
Seeing that the plan had been exposed, Jing hurriedly said, "What evidence do you have for saying this?" ”
"Credentials? The credentials are on top of this puppet. Ling Ruoyi said lightly.
"On top of this puppet?" Yuan Hao wondered. Then he put his eyes on the puppet, and looked through it carefully, this is nothing special, they are all ordinary fabrics that are usually lined with lining, and no one's name is written on this fabric, and everyone in the house has such fabrics.
"Yes, it's on this fabric." Ling Ruoyi said lightly. But seeing that everyone still looked puzzled, Ling Ruoyi shook helplessly and continued: "The needles on this puppet have some rust and are stained with some rust, and there is a faint layer of moss on this puppet. ”
Hearing this, Yuan Hao carefully looked at the puppet in his hand, "That's true, what does this mean?" ”
"This shows that the puppet was not buried on the day of the sting, but three days before the sting." Ling Ruoyi said lightly.
"Did you say that the first three days of the sting were the first three days? Don't talk nonsense just to help Xiao Shanshan get rid of her crimes. Jing said in a panic.
"Because it rained three days before the sting, although the rain was not heavy, but it was enough to soak the rainwater into the soil, the soil of Taohuawu is suitable for planting flowers and plants, but it is also easy to grow moss, so the soil that has been turned over will turn the moss on the surface of the soil to the bottom, so the moss on the soil will attach to the puppet."
After listening to Ling Ruoyi's analysis, Yuan Hao nodded, it was indeed like this, he only blamed himself for being angry at the time and not observing carefully, this Princess Qi is really not simple, "Then the person who framed Xiao Shanshan is the one who poisoned my mother?" ”
"This is not necessarily, since the other party originally wanted to use the scourge of witchcraft to frame Xiao Shanshan, he would not choose to use poisonous insects, witch Gu will only make people think that this can harm people, but it doesn't work at all."
"And who is the one who uses the seven-star centipede?" Yuan Hao said hurriedly.
"The seven-star centipede grows in the humid places of Lingnan, and they all like to stay in sparsely populated places."
"Then only Lingnan people can get this seven-star centipede? But there are no Lingnan people in my house. ”
"Have you forgotten that there have been three Lingnan people who have been to the capital before, and if the Lingnan people want to enter Beijing, they must enter from the direction of Qingyang." Ling Ruohui still said lightly.
Hearing this, Yuan Hao bowed slightly, he was really envious that King Qi could have such a smart woman as his wife, but he had been looking for so many years, and after all, there was no one who could sympathize with him.
"Thank you Princess Qi for your advice, Yuan Hao understands, it's not too early, so I ask Princess Qi to stay with me for one night, and send someone to send the princess back to the house tomorrow morning?"
"Don't bother, this concubine will go back, Chen'er is young, and she still needs me to take care of her." After finishing speaking, Ling Ruoxuan left the Yuan Mansion in a step.
When Ling Ruoyi returned to King Qi's mansion, it was already late at night, and she tiptoed to Chen'er's bedside, looking at the little guy's sleeping face, and was about to turn around and leave, but who knew that Chen'er actually got up with a grunt, "Mother, you're finally back, Dad misses you." ”
"It turns out that only your father misses her mother, but Chen'er doesn't think about it, since that's the case, then my mother will go back to the room." Ling Ruoyi feigned anger and said. Then he turned and left.
Chen'er hurriedly jumped out of bed, ran to Ling Ruohui with bare feet, and hugged Ling Ruohui's leg tightly, "Mother, don't go, Chen'er misses her mother, I think about it so much." ”
"How much do you want?" Ling Ruoxuan raised her eyebrows and said.
"I especially want to think about it, Chen'er misses her mother, she can't swallow what she wants, and she can't sleep at night." Chen'er said with a milky voice.
"Oh? So I miss my mother so much. Tell me, where did you think about it? ”
"I thought in my heart, I thought in my head, I thought in my mouth, and I thought about my belly."
"Hehe, you little guy, where do you miss your mother, you obviously want your mother to make delicious food for you." Ling Ruoyi smiled and hugged Chen'er and said.
