Chapter 18: Who's Instigating?

Wei Shuyao rejected Huan Xin's proposal, they are not married yet, and then rely on Huan Xin's strength to achieve the goal, which is too short-sighted, and the old dirt of the Wei Mansion needs to be cut off by herself.

"The slave family just wants to find out the culprit, I don't want to alarm too much, the wedding incident has just passed, and it has made a huge fuss, and I don't want the general to be implicated again."

Cheng Yu's wedding is almost known to Jianye, and everything is said. Wei Shuyao heard that Xie Wanxin Guining did not return to Chengfu for a few days, and did not go back until Cheng Huaibing took Cheng Yu to meet him personally.

Huan Xin obviously also thought that the court has seen him and Cheng Huaibing lively recently, and the palace attendant of the Xie family has impeached Cheng Huaibing three or five times in a row, and the marriage of the Cheng Xie family has become a delicate dispute.

He nodded and said, "Everything is according to your wishes, if there is any news from the government here, I will send someone to inform you." ”

Wei Shuyao thanked her again, although she didn't get the news of the real culprit, but she had the opportunity to drive Qiao Niang away. The mean-looking old lady maid in Tan Weiran's mouth must be Qiao Niang.

Qiao Niang is Yang Fu's nurse, who has served Yang Fu for more than 40 years, and has tormented Wei Shuyao in the Guogong Mansion.

After Huan Xin said goodbye to Wei Shuyao, he returned to the Xifu City Mansion.

Half a moment later, Tan Weiran was escorted blindfolded to a carriage, and after being guarded all the way, she was taken to Yingtai.

At first glance, Tan Weiran was dizzy, and when she saw the man in front of her, she was almost really dizzy. In an instant, Tan Weiran recalled thousands of rumors about Huan Xin in Jianye, about how he was eager to repay his eyes, and how bloodthirsty and cruel.

This reaction fell in Huan Xin's eyes, he was no longer surprised, the man didn't intend to explain, on the contrary, he needed Tan Weiran to have such fear.

There was an extremely bloody scene in front of him, a person was tied with iron chains on the opposite side of the red pool, not an inch of skin on his body was intact, his hands and calves were obviously tortured, they had been completely broken, the flesh of the calf part began to rot, and the blood on his body dripped little by little, and all fell into the pool of blood.

There were several ice tables scattered across the pool of blood, on which lay several bruised corpses, but neatly dressed.

Tan Weiran was completely frightened, someone directly splashed a basin of water, she slowly woke up and knelt on the ground, not daring to look at any place again.

A man's deep voice came from above, but it was like a ghost: "I read your confession and said that it was made by you alone, why is it diametrically opposite to what you and Wei Niangzi said!" ”

Tan Weiran knelt down completely, her voice trembled violently, and she couldn't speak: "My lord...... Adults forgive sins...... The sinner is afraid of that person, my lord...... Adults, help me! ”

She cried and cried and suddenly crawled forward, grabbed Huan Xin's trouser legs, and the whole person seemed to be crazy.

The guard immediately stepped forward and pulled away, but still left a mark, according to the past, this woman was afraid that she would not be able to live, but Huan Xin just glanced at it and continued to ask: "What are you afraid of?" Afraid that someone who threatens you will kill you? ”

Tan Weiran collapsed on the ground and said slowly.

On the sixth day of the seventh lunar month, Tan Weiran went out and met someone from the Guogong Mansion chewing on the root of his tongue, and the two maids discussed that the marriage was originally given by the second lady, but it was robbed by the eldest lady. Because the eldest lady and someone were found to have fornicated letters, she was jealous of the marriage she planned to rob after losing her marriage contract with the Prime Minister's Mansion.

This is gossip, although Tan Weiran believed it for seven or eight points, she didn't take it to heart in the end.

Unexpectedly, three days later, Yi and the county lord sent someone to find her, Tan Yuan's top boss was Princess Zhaokang's concubine, Tan Yuan made a mistake recently, and Yi and the county lord wanted to coerce Tan Weiran to expose Wei Shu's illicit correspondence on Cheng Yu's wedding day.

"Although the sinner girl is stupid, she is not so stupid, she does not refuse verbally, but she does not intend to really do it, Aya made a mistake, although I want to help, but it is definitely not worth the loss to offend you. But I didn't expect ......"

Unexpectedly, two days later, Tan Weiran was plundered to the broken temple by a man in black, and he also threatened Tan Weiran to do this, and gave her a letter of evidence.

Tan Weiran was reluctant to do such a thing until the other party showed her something.

"It was the little finger of the younger brother of the sinner, and the last of his six fingers was born half as short as the others, and the sinner recognized it at a glance, and the sinner had to do it. The sinner girl wanted to tell the story that day, but the county lord thought that I was talking about her and stopped the sinner. After being imprisoned, someone stuffed a threatening note into the food to prevent me from confiding in, but the sinner still accidentally leaked a slight flaw in front of Wei Niangzi. ”

Huan Xin arranged all the dates in his mind one by one, and found that the days of assassination in those days coincided amazingly with the days when Tan Weiran was threatened.

Maybe......

"Do you remember what that man looked like?"

Tan Weiran replied: "The other party is masked, the sky is dark and the sin girl can't see clearly, she can't describe it." But the sinner girl with those eyes will never forget it, and if she sees them again, she will recognize them."

Huan Xin pointed to the person in front of him and asked, "Can this person be similar?" ”

Tan Weiran squinted her eyes and tried to identify it, and finally shook her head and replied, "Not really." ”

Huan Xin Mosuo thought for a while with his fingertips, until Tan Weiran spoke again: "My lord, that sin girl...... The sinner will make it clear when she returns. ”

"Do you know why I'm meddling in this?"

"Isn't it for Wei Niangzi......"

Huan Xin sneered: "Wei Niangzi suspects that you are being coerced, she told me that she doesn't want anyone to be punished more than the crime you committed, and what kind of punishment should a person bear if he makes a mistake." She convinced me, and I intervened. ”

"You don't have to go back, save your life here before this matter is settled."

Tan Weiran fell into a huge shock, and it was not until the stain on the man's vermilion trouser legs disappeared in front of her that she slowly bowed her head and knelt down: "Thank you...... Wei Niangzi ......"

Wei Shuyao received news from Huan Xin half a day after returning.

Huan Xin told her that Tan Weiran was indeed coerced, but the coerced person had not yet understood the complexity involved, and asked her not to touch the people in the Guogong Mansion for the time being, so as not to startle the snake.

The other party's words were cautious and serious, and Wei Shuyao was taken aback. She didn't take the assassination on the night she met Cheng Yu seriously, but now she has a little contact.

The killer who suddenly appeared in Yanque Lake, the killer's last knife stabbed at him that night, and the mysterious coercion against her, the piles and piles were linked, Wei Shuyao had to suspect that this was someone deliberately trying to harm her, and it was not an ordinary inner house-level pit, yes......

Murdered.

A thin layer of cold sweat oozed from her back, and she immediately thought of something, Wei Shu hurriedly opened the cabinet door, took out the box with incense and pulled it in again.

The white palm shows a very black round gem, the Southern Jin Dynasty people call it "obsidian", it is rumored to be produced in the southwest border Wushan, has the effect of attracting ghosts and gods, rare in the world.

Luo Peici said that this stone was her placenta gem, but it was unknown in the Southern Jin Dynasty, so she was not loved by Wei Qing since she was a child.

Wei Shuyao has never believed the so-called fetal gem, but Luo Peici's incense making is mysterious, and this gem is really a bit weird.

She was born in a deep boudoir since she was a child, except that she learned more literary strategies than ordinary women, there is nothing else special, only this gem is different, are these people related to obsidian?

Luo Peici married to Jianye, except for an old slave Liao Bo who came to marry, there were no other relatives around. Liao Bo is now in charge of Qilu Qianzhuang, and Wei Shuyao decided to go to him to inquire first.

Qilu is a small money village, located in Dongfu City, which is the dowry of Wei Shuyao's biological mother Luo Peici, and the only thing left to her.

She made an appointment with Liao Bowei Huaizhenlou, this is the first time in five years that the two have met again, Yang Fu has always wanted to annex Qianzhuang, and he was extremely cautious about Wei Shuyao and Liao Bo meeting, and obstructed it in every way, but since the marriage, the discipline in the house has been loosened, and Yang Fu has relaxed his vigilance when he thinks he got the title deed.

The two exchanged a few words, and Wei Shuyao was about to ask about the origin of the stone, but he didn't expect the little guy brought by Liao Bo outside the door to rush in, and after whispering a few words in Liao Bo's ear, Liao Bo's expression changed completely.

When the little servant left, Liao Bo said angrily: "Lady, how did the land deed get into the hands of Mrs.?" At this time, I sent someone to find the old slave to go to Dongfu City to draw and transfer it. ”
