Chapter 49: Forced to learn to answer
"I've been looking at it just now, just to see when my physical evidence will be valid. Everyone, look at it, don't touch it, if you do, you may end up with the same fate as Xiuzhi, if you don't do it well, you will worry about your life. ”
Everyone wanted to get closer to see, but when they heard Pei Wuyi's warning, they all took a step back.
Yu Qingfeng also leaned over to look, good guy, Xiuzhi had a red rash on her bare skin.
"Master Pei, what is this?" Du Huanmo asked questions on behalf of all the confused spectators.
"Lord Du can be lit by candlelight, get closer and take a closer look, Xiuzhi's palms and the places where her hands have touched."
Du Huanmo hurriedly took the lantern from the subordinates on the side, approached and kept a certain distance, finding a balance between self-protection and due diligence, and observed carefully.
Xiuzhi wanted to hide, but the guards on both sides were one on each side, and they couldn't care about pity the fragrance and jade anymore, so they pressed her shoulders with the scabbard, so that the beauty couldn't move.
"This, this shining is ......"
"It's scale powder, to be precise, it's the scale powder extracted from the wings of the Red Lian Poison-Eyed Butterfly."
"What butterfly?" Du Huanmo took a few steps back.
"The red practice poison-eyed butterfly, as the name suggests, is red, and the patterns on its wings resemble eyes, which are highly poisonous."
"And these butterflies?" Du Huanmo took a few steps back.
"During the day, I noticed this maid named Xiuzhi, who had been wandering around me and in front of the room, scratching her head and making gestures, and her eyebrows were flirtatious."
"Master Pei, did you notice it early on?"
Du Huanmo couldn't believe it, and the subtext in his demeanor was: Why didn't I notice that you noticed it early in the morning?
"That's right, I also noticed that Lord Du knew about it early on, and I thought it was Lord Du's kindness," Pei Wuyi nodded and continued to explain, "I guessed that Xiuzhi would take action tonight, and if the beauty couldn't make a plan, she would naturally frame it." ”
"No, Master Pei, this is not the ...... of the lower officials" Du Huanmo hurriedly clarified.
Pei Wuyi ignored Du Huanmo's embarrassment and continued to explain:
"I closed the door tightly, turned off the lights and rested, and didn't give Xiuzhi a chance to enter the room. If it was Lord Du's kindness, seeing me close the door and thank you, you should know the difficulty and retreat, right? ”
"That's nature! Therefore, Xiuzhi was not sent by the lower officials. ”
"I also want to see what this Xiuzhi wants, and whether she will break in through the side door, so I deliberately sprayed this highly poisonous scale powder on the window lattice, as long as someone pushes the window to enter, the palms of both hands will definitely stick to the scale powder."
Xiuzhi raised her palms in disbelief to her eyes, her face pale.
"Master Du can send someone to carefully check the window of my guest room, there should be blank marks on the outside of the palm prints of both hands, this blank mark can match the size of Xiuzhi's hands, and there is also the scale powder that she accidentally stained when she closed the window inside."
Du Huanmo immediately ordered the guards on the side to check.
The guards were stunned, after all, they were highly poisonous scale powder, but they also had to bite the bullet. They could only touch Xiuzhi with the saber at their waists, urging her to go to the window to verify together.
"By the way, since Xiuzhi came in, I kept my distance from her, for fear of getting contaminated with the highly toxic scale powder, but I still watched her touch many places in my room. This guest room, please also ask Lord Du to send someone to clean it carefully. ”
Yu Qingfeng was silently sighing that Pei Wuxian was playing a slippery routine, and when he heard this, he suddenly woke up, the room was wasted, where did Pei Wuxian live tonight?
After Pei Wuxian finished speaking, he stretched out his hands and spread out his palms to show everyone.
"Scale powder is highly toxic, so I took precautions when spraying. So my hands and my body were not stained at all. Master Du can personally inspect it carefully. ”
Du Huanmo stepped back and waved his hand, "This, of course this is not necessary, this is highly toxic scale powder, if Master Pei is contaminated, it naturally needs to be cleaned up in time, now let me check, then it must be absolutely uncontaminated." ”
The guards pushed Xiuzhi back to the courtyard with their sabers.
"Tell Lord Du that the window lattice and the interior of the room are indeed as Master Pei said. Xiuzhi's hands are also the same size as the marks left on the window. ”
Xiuzhi knelt on the ground, looking at her hands in despair, wanting to cry without tears.
"Master Du, this is ironclad evidence, right?" Yu Qingfeng walked up to Du Huanmo and asked meaningfully.
Du Huanmo knew Xiuzhi, and specially arranged for Xiuzhi to serve and show his face in front of Pei Wuyi, he had long known that Xiuzhi would go to Pei Wuyi to show his beauty trick, but he didn't expect Pei Wuyi to take the bait and not say anything, and the beauty trick could evolve into a false accusation.
What he didn't expect was that Pei Wuyi could have noticed it early and set up a game with highly poisonous butterfly scale powder, so that Xiuzhi could throw herself into the net.
"Yes, it's ironclad."
What else can Du Huanmo say? Admit it.
"Xiuzhi is a maidservant in the adult's house, the adult should make a statement at this time, right?" Pei Wuxian's cold eyes turned to Du Huanmo.
Du Huanmo realized it later, and slapped his forehead, "Master Pei, this Xiuzhi is ......"
Xiuzhi also suddenly broke out, rushing before Du Huanmo and shouting: "I said, I said, I confess, I do have a master, please give me the antidote!" ”
Du Huanmo saw that there were still people fighting for it, so he hurriedly stepped forward, "Lord Pei, Xiuzhi was arranged by Lord Xia to come to my mansion......"
"My master is Xia Tixing, it's Xia Feitao!" Xiuzhi is not far behind.
"Lord Xia gave me four beauties, I only regarded it as a gift between colleagues, I didn't expect it to be like this!"
"Lord Xia ordered me, no matter whether the beauty plan is successful or not, I must stop Master Pei from going to Pingchuan County on the charge of adultery!"
Yu Qingfeng and Lian Shurong couldn't hold back and laughed together.
Pei Wuyi's trick is high enough, and they don't need to ask more, the other party will learn to answer.
The criminal officer Xia Feitao, in order to prevent Pei Wuxian from reviewing the case and overturning his conclusion, really did everything.
Pei Wuyi yawned, "I have to hurry tomorrow, let's rest early." ”
"Then, what should Xiuzhi do?" Du Huanmo breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't dare to make a decision privately, so he could only ask Pei Wubo.
"Xiuzhi testified that Xia Ti was a witness, and it stands to reason that he should be left until after the trial of my case is concluded, and then arraigned when Xia Ti is sentenced. But she is now highly poisoned, and her time is running out, and she can't stay until then. It is better to be exiled, find a place in the barren mountains and mountains and let her die of poison, and her skin will festered and die of her whole body, which can be regarded as a punishment for her daring to frame her own officials. ”
"Huh? This ......" Du Huanmo rubbed his hands in embarrassment.
"What? Want to intercede for her? ”
"No, no, the lower officials just think that this punishment is light, light."
"I understand that your people dare not take over. In this way, I sent someone to send her out of Jeju overnight and throw her into the barren mountains and mountains. Rest assured, this official is jealous and hateful, but it is also clear from wrong, if Lord Du is not involved, there is no need to be afraid and worried. ”
Pei Wuyi still had an indifferent tone, but what he said made the other party tremble.
Xiuzhi heard her ending and begged for mercy.
Pei Wuyi turned a deaf ear, greeted his own guards, and whispered a few words, thinking that he was ordering Xiuzhi to be sent to fend for herself.
