Chapter 17: Forced to commit suicide
Shen Yanbai appeared proudly in front of everyone with a bag of medicinal powder between his fingers.
Zhou Zhenzhen was quite surprised by Shen Yanbai's arrival.
"General Zhou, this prince has the medicine that the two of them poisoned his wife here!"
Shen Yanbai shook the medicine bag in his hand and then handed it to Zhou Zhenzhen.
Zhou Zhenzhen raised her eyebrows lightly and glanced at him. Shen Yanbai saw that she didn't accept it, thinking that she didn't trust herself, so she attached her ear.
"I'm not kidding you, it's really poison."
After hearing his words, Zhou Zhenzhen was still skeptical, but finally took the medicine bag in his hand.
She opened the layer of oiled paper, and the white powder inside came into view. Zhou Zhenzhen put the medicinal powder under her nose and sniffed it lightly, the smell was really wrong. She raised her head to meet Zhou Lingshen's gaze, and nodded at him naturally.
Zhou Ling was even more furious after the meeting.
"Good! It's really a wolf-hearted thing for you two to be a dog-hearted thing! Come! Tie them up in the yard and beat them to death! ”
Hearing this, Hu Yunniang was really frightened, she couldn't care about anything, she crawled to Zhou Lingshen's feet with her hands and feet, crying all day long.
"General! The slave knows that she is wrong! The slave maid is a ghost who wants to harm his wife for a while! It's all ...... It's all him, it's all he instigated the slaves and maids, begging the general to spare the lives of the slaves and maids! ”
Zhou Lingshen was willing to listen to her crying like this, and immediately kicked her to the ground. Hu Yunniang had no choice but to crawl again, crawling to Zhou Yuwan's feet to beg her.
Zhou Yuwan was entangled by her and couldn't dodge, but fortunately, Zuo Yingying and Ah Ruo were beside her, and the two hurriedly pulled Zhou Yuwan back to get rid of Hu Yunniang.
"Miss! The slave really knows it's wrong! Go and save the slave and the maid! ”
Zhou Yuwan was heartbroken to death, not because she felt sorry for Hu Yunniang, but because she felt sorry for her mother. Mother has always been kind to others, but she didn't expect good people to be rewarded.
She held back her tears and shook her head at Hu Yunniang, although her voice was small but unquestionable.
"All of this is your own fault, you not only hurt my mother but also want to frame Aunt Qing, it's disgusting!"
Hu Yunniang cried breathlessly and complained: "Do you think I am willing to do this? It's not that he forced it! ”
She pointed at Dr. Gu's eyes, and an indelible resentment burst out.
"It's all this unfaithful and unrighteous man, it's all he who ruined me!"
Doctor Gu was furious, "Shut up!" Hugh is going to talk nonsense! ”
"I'm not talking nonsense! You go in and out of the general's mansion every day to treat your wife, and you tell me that you want to marry me, but you have a wife! You liar! If it weren't for your greed for money, how could you agree to her poisoning Madame! ”
Hu Yunniang didn't choose to say anything for a while, and gave Zhou Zhenzhen an unexpected reminder.
Zhou Zhenzhen frowned and asked, "He?" Which he? ”
Seeing that Hu Yunniang was about to speak, Doctor Gu was furious.
"Shut up! Shut up!!! You slut! Shut up! ”
Hu Yunniang turned around and glared at him angrily, waved her hand, and roared: "Why should I shut up!" You're afraid that she will kill your whole family, but I'm not afraid ......"
Everyone was frightened by Hu Yunniang's appearance, but before her words fell, she was already foaming at the mouth, and she fell to the ground with a bang.
Zhou Zhenzhen saw that the situation was not good and hurriedly stepped forward, but it was too late. The poison came violently, as if someone had given it early in the morning, and the poison would be so sudden. No matter how fast Ren Zhou Zhenzhen reacted, it was too late.
"Hahaha-"
Everyone didn't react, and Doctor Gu, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly laughed, and then rolled his eyes, blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, and he fell in the same direction as Hu Yunniang.
"Don't!"
Zhou Zhenzhen was anxious and annoyed, and immediately turned around and pounced on him, and quickly stuffed her index and middle fingers into his blood-covered mouth to prevent the poison between his teeth from continuing to be bitten and the poison from spreading faster.
"Hey! Who the hell is he?! Who told you to do this? Answer me!!! ”
The more he vomited, the more he vomited, Dr. Gu didn't say anything, but it was like the last revenge on Zhou Zhenzhen before he died, he actually bit Zhou Zhenzhen's finger to death, and Zhou Zhenzhen's little face turned white in pain.
Shen Yanbai, who sensed that something was wrong, hurriedly came to Zhou Zhenzhen's side, reached out to break his head, and laboriously pulled out Zhou Zhenzhen's hand that was already covered with blood.
After a while, the man on the ground died.
Aunt Qing, who had been kneeling on the ground, saw Zhou Zhenzhen, who was a little lost in her soul with blood on her hands, moved over in distress, took her hand and shed tears.
Zhou Zhenzhen came back to her senses and squeezed out a smile at Aunt Qing.
She quickly forced herself to compose herself and continue to deal with the farce.
"Father, the real murderer has committed suicide in fear of crime, can he spare my mother?"
"The murderer is dead, so let's stop here." Zhou Lingshen spoke.
But Zhou Zhenzhen seemed to have remembered something, and she didn't plan to end there.
"Father, Ling Li thinks that there is another murderer who has no law."
Zhou Lingshen was suspicious, as if he had thought about something clearly. He first glared at Zhou Zhenzhen with disgust, then withdrew his gaze and slowly raised his feet and walked towards Aunt Gu.
Faced with Zhou Lingshen's terrifying appearance, Aunt Gu could only look at him forcefully.
"Will ...... Checkmate. Aunt Gu's voice trembled to the extreme.
Who knew that Zhou Lingshen didn't even give her a good face, and directly slapped her and knocked her to the ground with one palm. The frightened innocent Zhou Yichen hugged his head and shrank back, and finally squatted on the ground to hide his face and cry.
Seeing that her father was so angry, Zhou Yuwan was the first to react, and ran to Zhou Yichen's side to protect her tightly in her arms.
Zhou Yichen shrank in his sister's arms, still trembling.
"Father, the second sister is still here, don't scare her." Zhou Yuwan was distressed and upset for her sister.
Zhou Lingshen did not look down at Zhou Yichen, but spoke on the spot.
"Changjing, take your sister out! Let's tell the guests that this is the end of today's feast! ”
Zhou Yuwan knew that her father was angry and didn't dare to be disobedient at the moment, so she quickly pulled Zhou Yichen up and took Zuo Yingying and Ah Ruo away.
At this time, Zhou Zhenzhen was helping Aunt Qing to get up, she lowered her head, and her eyes flashed with a moment of happiness for revenge.
Shen Yanbai also felt that the surrounding atmosphere was depressing, and pulled Zhou Zhenzhen and Aunt Qing away with an attitude of not causing trouble. Soon, in addition to the unconscious Fang clan in the room, there were only Zhou Lingshen and Aunt Gu.
Aunt Gu knew it at the moment - because Zhou Zhenzhen reminded Zhou Lingshen that she had already known that she had pushed the Fang family into the water three years ago, and her heart suddenly felt cold......
Out of the wing, Shen Yanbai hurriedly chased after Zhou Zhenzhen. Seeing her drifting away, he immediately shouted-
"Miss Zhou, please stay!"
Shen Yanbai ran happily behind Zhou Zhenzhen.
Zhou Zhenzhen really stopped and looked back at him. She quickly turned her head and ordered Chu Jiu to send Aunt Qing back, and watched Chu Jiu help Aunt Qing walk away before turning to look at Shen Yanbai.
Shen Yanbai stood behind her obediently with his hands up, waiting for Zhou Zhenzhen to take care of herself.
"Is there anything else to do with the four princes?"
Shen Yanbai raised his eyebrows and asked tentatively, "Are you...... There's nothing you want to ask me, do you? ”
Frankly speaking.
Zhou Zhenzhen nodded, "There is indeed something I want to ask His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince." ”
Shen Yanbai pricked up his ears and listened seriously and expectantly.
"How did you get this packet of poison? Or let me put it another way, this bag of poison is not the poison in the pastry under the murderer at all, where did you get this thing? ”
Zhou Zhenzhen lit up the medicine bag in her hand and questioned Shen Yanbai, Shen Yanbai laughed dryly, carefully pulled back the medicine bag from her hand and stuffed it into her sleeve.
"This is my own thing, I didn't find the poison used by the murderer."
Zhou Zhenzhen snorted coldly, "I know." But how can you, a prince, go out with poison? ”
"I don't get plotted against very often, so I'll bring something for self-defense. I didn't expect it to come in handy today, and you're quite smart enough to know that I was cheating on them. He couldn't help but praise Zhou Zhenzhen.
Zhou Zhenzhen was not modest, "That's nature, I knew what you wanted to do the moment you took out the poison." ”
She paced slowly forward, and Shen Yanbai followed her in a few steps.
"Then I also have something I want to ask Miss Zhou."
"Ask."
"How did you know that Mrs. Zhou was pushed into the water by that concubine three years ago?"
Zhou Zhenzhen shrugged, "I don't know, I also lied to her." ”
Hearing this answer, Shen Yanbai didn't react for a while.
"Then if she hadn't done it, wouldn't you hurt her by doing this?"
"Hmph, she's not a good person, I've long been suspicious of her, but I didn't expect her to be so breathless."
Hearing this, Shen Yanbai gave her a thumbs up.
"Miss Zhou's trick is really clever!"
"Where is the fourth prince you are powerful, a pack of poison directly saved me half of the trouble, I have to thank you."
Shen Yanbai was rarely praised by others, and he was a little shy for a while. His gaze was lowered, and he inadvertently caught a glimpse of Zhou Zhenzhen's bitten finger.
He glanced at the wound, and immediately took out a white handkerchief from the other sleeve, and took her hand again. Zhou Zhenzhen flickered her head, and then reflexively retracted her hand.
"What are you doing?!" She didn't like to be touched by others, and immediately regained her sense of unapproachable distance.
Who knew that Shen Yanbai didn't care, and took her hand again, not allowing her to resist.
"Your hands are bleeding from bites, don't you feel any pain?"
As he spoke, he lowered his head and carefully bandaged her, his mouth still babbling.
"Girls can't have scars on their bodies, they have to be clean to look good. That doctor is so hateful, belong to the dog, he! Also biting! He was indignant.
Zhou Zhenzhen looked at Shen Yanbai, and the corners of her mouth suddenly had a smile, and she didn't even notice it.
Shen Yanbai's bandaging technique was skillful, and he bandaged Zhou Zhenzhen's wound in a few clicks. Zhou Zhenzhen couldn't help but laugh when she looked at the delicate bow tied to her finger.
Shen Yanbai was stunned, "What are you laughing at?" Don't you like my bandage? ”
Zhou Zhenzhen shook her head, "No, I didn't say that." ”
Shen Yanbai snorted, pursed his lips, and continued to walk forward with Zhou Zhenzhen with his hands around his chest.
"You've betrayed yourself with such a clear expression. Don't you just dislike the bow girls of this prince's bag! ”
Zhou Zhenzhen smiled again, raised her hand to face the warm sun, and said very seriously: "I can't do such an exquisite bandaging method, the fourth prince is really smart." ”
Shen Yanbai looked sideways at her gentle face, and a trace of warmth suddenly crossed in his heart, and his mood also improved.
