Chapter Thirty-Seven: He's on My Side
"Ruoyin, why didn't I know about this?"
Hearing that Yan Jinzhou often had to move out the dowry box for food, Qi Feng frowned.
Lin Ruoyin hurriedly explained: "Adults rarely come to the backyard, and they don't have time to report such trivial matters to adults. β
There were several strange noises on the stretcher at this time.
It turned out that Shi Nuo, who had not yet recovered, was also excited, and wanted to come down, Yan Jinzhou saw that her injuries were not healed, and asked her to explain to Runxue to do it, and Shi Kuo told Runxue where the dowry list and pawnshop notes were placed.
Under the gaze of everyone, Runxue entered the back room and carefully removed a small box from the top of the cabinet.
Dye Shuang couldn't help but squirt: "Mrs. Qian, I will open your dog's eyes and see who the money our lady uses, and you dare to be framed?" β
Mrs. Qian pretended not to hear the frost's words, and rolled her eyes at her.
Fortunately, Shi Hawk grabbed the dye frost in time, "We don't have to do it, the adults won't let go of this Qian woman." β
I saw that Qi Feng's face was as calm as water, but it was this always indifferent expression that made people unconsciously a little stunned.
"Your Excellency, you see, all the bills are here, and Madame has made a total of 1,500 taels of silver over the years."
The dowry list was also presented to Qi Feng, with a pair of lychee ornaments, unicorn jade pendants, and some ordinary hairpins crossed out with red cinnabar.
Lin Shi instantly showed a fleeting smile on his face, and then gave Mrs. Qian a look.
Mrs. Qian immediately shouted on the ground: "Help! β
"Shousuke-sama saves the life of the slave! There are more than 3,500 taels in this book, and the monthly money of the lady is only 1,000 taels a year...... Don't dare to say...... Yes! β
Qi Feng glanced down at Mrs. Qian.
Yan Jinzhou's eyes also fell on Mrs. Qian.
She didn't expect that Mrs. Qian would use the money she spent to calculate her, the original owner didn't spend money, and she had just worn a book, and she was still unable to get rid of the matter of seeking an antidote before, where would she know everything about the money spent for these months.
How do you want her to defend herself now?
Lin Ruoyin's face showed an unnatural look of worry, and she said anxiously: "Mrs. Qian, what don't you dare to say?" Adults are in charge here, if there are people in my sister's room whose hands and feet are not clean and have a bad conscience, how long will you hide it? β
Shi Duck, Dyed Frost, and Run Xue all looked at each other.
Except for Shi Ou, who had the heart to be the companion of Lord Shoufu before, and who had poisoned Lin Ruoyin, the others were innocent and had never had any thoughts about yellow and white things.
Yan Jinzhou didn't say a word more.
The soldiers are coming, the water is coming to cover the earth, she doesn't believe that there is no hurdle that cannot be passed.
Qi Feng approached Yan Jinzhou step by step, and Lin Ruoyin was shocked when he saw it, and the man's face had such a detached and cold expression, and his whole body was full of irresistible momentum.
Lin Ruoyin imagined that Qi Feng was likely to raise a generous slap in the next second, leaving a few bright red slap prints on Yan Jinzhou's face, and he felt a sense of revenge, very happy, but he was afraid that others would see it, so he hurriedly covered his mouth with a handkerchief.
She came from a poor family and knew how important her family's money was.
Thinking that once she stole her mother's money and bought a sugar gourd in the market, her parents beat her half to death, and now, she has charged Yan Jinzhou with more than 1,000 taels of silver, which can definitely put her to death.
Mrs. Qian knelt on the ground and lifted her up, with a proud look on her face.
But Qi Feng's next move disappointed both of them.
"Raise your head", Yan Jinzhou, who was forced by Qi Feng's unacceptable tone, slowly raised his head, "It's just that you spent some more silver, being my woman, can you have no money to spend?" β
βοΌοΌοΌβ
Yan Jinzhou's eyes instantly widened as big as a copper bell.
"Your ......, my lord"
Lin Ruoyin's voice was also full of shock, but with anger and disbelief.
Everyone else was dumbfounded.
Mrs. Qian hurriedly said: "My lord, madam, she has swallowed up more than a thousand taels of silver in the house. β
"And Wang Qin's life!"
Qi Feng said in a deep voice: "Do you want to say that Madam wants Wang Qin's life because she wants this silver?" β
Mrs. Qian didn't know how to look at people's eyes, and nodded again and again.
Qi Feng immediately kicked over: "You still dare to talk nonsense? β
Mrs. Qian didn't seem to be afraid of death: "Mrs. intercepted the moon silver of the little girls in the house, so there is a deficit of more than 1,000 taels of silver, what rich ladies are beautiful?" Dare not admit it, it seems that the mansion is just a papier-mΓ’chΓ© lantern, and it is just an empty face. β
Yan Jinzhou naturally couldn't stand being said like this, where could he endure it anymore, and without waiting for Qi Feng to stand up for her, he went up and "brushed" and slapped Mrs. Qian twice.
A stream of black blood flowed out of Mrs. Qian's mouth immediately.
Lin Ruoyin panicked: "Why did you slap you twice, it's like this?" β
Yan Jinzhou hurriedly grabbed Mrs. Qian's right hand to check the pulse.
"Oh no, she's poisoned."
Lin Ruoyin was stunned: "Then what should I do?" β
There was a burst of exclamations from the people standing below, and in such a short period of time, no one could have thought that Mrs. Qian would be poisoned.
Qi Feng asked, "Has anyone seen her take poison before?" β
None of the maids answered.
Although Yan Jinzhou's medical skills are not proficient, her calm and unhurried medical temperament is eye-catching, and even Qi Feng feels a little impressed by her.
"It's okay, she's not dying that easily."
Yan Jinzhou took out a small bottle from his arms, poured out the pill and stuffed it into Qian Pozi's mouth.
This is a meeting gift from Ouyang Lei.
The anti-poison pill he developed can save his life at a critical moment.
Yan Jinzhou probed her nose again, and saw that she was still breathing, so he looked at Qi Feng and said: "My lord, it is better to send Mrs. Qian to Jingzhao Mansion, her poisoning is full of suspicions, as for her accusation that I deducted the human moon silver, I will hand it over to Lord Fu Yin for trial!" β
"Just ......"
Yan Jinzhou paused, glanced at Lin Ruoyin like a knife, and then said to Qi Feng: "It's just that the trouble lord said hello to Jingzhao Mansion Yin, in case someone is murdered and the evidence of the confession is lost." β
Qi Feng held his hand behind, and his dark eyes revealed some unknown emotion, and he nodded for a long time.
Coincidentally, at this moment, a little guy hurriedly entered the backyard and reported: "My lord, Jingzhao Mansion Yin came to the door to ask to see you!" β
"Let them in!"
Yan Jinzhou rushed in front of Qi Feng and said, even if this is the backyard, he can't care about any courtesy.
Jingzhao Mansion Yin was very respectful, and when he arrived at the gate of Ning Cui Garden, he also clenched his fists and said to Qi Feng: "Lord Shoufu, the lower official is abrupt!" β
Qi Feng smiled slightly.
Yan Jinzhou walked to his side, and Jingzhao Mansion Yin bowed again: "I've seen Mrs. Shoufu!" β
"A corpse that Lord Shoufu sent to Xiaguan last time has already been experienced, and Xiaguan is here to ask the people involved in the case to inquire about it." Jingzhao Mansion Yin said personally.
