Chapter 119: Buried Alive (2nd Watch)
Xiao Jinyue took the recorded confession to the second steward and asked him to take it to draw a charge for Mama.
The grandmother listened to Xiao Jinyue's words, her face turned pale, her mind was in a mess, she didn't know how she could expose those secrets buried in her heart.
Seeing the second steward coming over with a confession, she instinctively wanted to resist, but how could her strength be able to defeat the second steward,
Seeing that her wife was dead and that the matter was a foregone conclusion, she knew that it was useless to struggle no longer, and the whole person was depressed.
Although she no longer struggled, the second steward still did not relax, and tightly grasped her right hand and dipped it in the ink, and then pressed it to the confession.
Xiao Jinyue asked Bai Guo to put away his confession, turned around and walked to Mrs. Li who was lying on the ground, squatted down, sighed and said, "Mama, since your wife has been poisoned to death, don't be too sad." It's too hot and the corpse will stink, so you should hurry up and carry your wife back and bury her as soon as possible." ”
In a vague way, Mrs. Li felt that she was tormenting in a big iron pot, and the bones in her body seemed to have been smashed, and it was really painful.
She was about to speak, but she vaguely heard that Xiao Jinyue's slut actually asked her grandmother to carry her back to be buried, and she couldn't help but be angry.
She is not dead yet, why is she going to bury herself, isn't that buried alive?
No, she can't die, she still has to wait for her son to earn her a life, she hasn't cleaned up her husband's concubines yet, how can she die!
She just took a little arsenic, and she vomited out in time, she didn't die at all, and she couldn't let Xiao Jinyue's slut bury herself alive.
With this breath, Mrs. Li struggled desperately.
For fear that someone would be buried alive one step too late, as soon as she opened her eyes, Mrs. Li opened her mouth and shouted, "I just ate a little arsenic, I'm not dead, you can't bury me alive." ”
Seeing the dead man suddenly turn over and sit up, everyone was startled, thinking that he had cheated the corpse.
But when they heard Mrs. Li's shouting, everyone couldn't help but look at each other, it turned out that the person was not dead.
Xiao Jinyue looked at Mrs. Li with a smile, "Did you eat a little arsenic yourself and vomit it out again, didn't you die?" ”
Mrs. Li, who had just woken up and was still a little confused in her mind, couldn't help but nod, "Yes, I just ate a little arsenic, I vomited it out, I wasn't poisoned, I'm not dead, you can't bury me alive." ”
Hearing this, everyone on the lookers looked at Mrs. Li with disdain.
Xiao Jinyue glanced at her coldly, and sneered in her heart, she is not dead yet, but soon.
With a smile, Xiao Jinyue stood up and faced everyone, "This Mrs. Li's words, everyone must have heard them clearly, the arsenic was eaten by herself, and it has nothing to do with our sugar store." I also ask everyone to help me testify about this. ”
Everyone nodded, "Don't worry, girl, so many of us have heard it, it is indeed the arsenic that the lady ate herself, and it has nothing to do with you." We'll all help you testify. ”
Facing everyone's disdainful gaze, Mrs. Li finally came to her senses. Realizing what she had said, her face turned pale.
The grandmother and the maid sat on the ground even more, and the whole person was stupid. Realizing that Mrs. was not dead, Mama was overjoyed, turned her head and asked Imperial Doctor Zheng, "Didn't you say that our lady was poisoned to death, what kind of imperial doctor are you, I'm afraid it's not a quack, right?" ”
Imperial Physician Zheng snorted and squinted at his grandmother, "The old man didn't say that people died, I said that your wife has been poisoned for half a month." ”
Mama choked suddenly, the imperial doctor really didn't say that Madame was dead.
It was Xiao Jinyue's slut who kept saying that Mrs. was out of breath, which misled her.
But then Mama was puzzled, "Since you are poisoned, why is it okay now?" ”
Imperial Physician Zheng said angrily, "Don't worry, your wife is not poisoned, and her health is very good." ”
Realizing that she had been tricked, Mama scolded angrily, "Since you are not poisoned, how can you lie and deceive people." ”
Xiao Jinyue sneered, "If it weren't for that, how could you say those words!" ”
Mama was suddenly angry by these words.
Although Madame is fine now, thinking of that confession and Madame's own confession, Mama's face is instantly ashes.
Xiao Jinyue was about to ask the second steward to send them to Dali Temple, but as soon as she raised her head, the prince of Nan'an and the prince of Zhenguo were stepping in from the door.
Lord Minghua followed her gaze and saw his brother, surprised and delighted, "Big brother, why are you here?" ”
Nan'an Shizi reached out and patted her head dotingly, wrinkled his brows and said, "It's not that your shop is opening today, Cheng Ting and I came over to see if there is anything we can help with, but how did I hear that there was a murder in your shop?" Who is so short-sighted that he came to touch the mold on the first day of opening? ”
On the first day of opening, someone came to make trouble, and the county lord of Minghua was naturally unhappy, so he stretched out his hand and pointed, "Well, it's that Mrs. Li, who took arsenic herself, but came to frame us for poisoning sugar." ”
Nan'an Shizi was a famous gentleman in Kyoto, and glanced at Mrs. Li, who had just been helped up by her mother-in-law, and saw that her sideburns were crooked, and the dress on her body seemed to be stained with a layer of dust.
It is said that the officials of the Ministry of Rites pay the most attention to rules and etiquette, but Lord Li's family style does not look very good, first the eldest young master of your house hugged his cousin on the street, and I heard that the two are unmarried but have been secretly married. This matter is still being talked about in the streets and alleys, but I didn't expect that Mrs. would come to our shop to make trouble on the first day of opening, regardless of her identity. ”
Ignoring Mrs. Li's extremely ugly face, Nan'an Shizi sighed twice, and then said, "It seems that I have to go into the palace to have a good chat with the emperor's uncle another day, this official of the Ministry of Rites is related to the face of my dynasty, how can it be borne by those officials who are not righteous, isn't this a shame for my dynasty?" ”
As soon as Nan'an Shizi's words came out, Mrs. Li's eyes darkened, and her body shook uncontrollably.
At this moment, she finally regretted it in her heart, she shouldn't have come to the shop today to make trouble and provoke the Nan'an Palace. It turned out that Xiao Jinyue's slut really found Nan'an Wangfu as a backer.
offended the Nan'an Palace, and it is not clear whether the lord's official position can keep her. But she knew that if the master knew about today's incident, her position would definitely not be kept.
It's all to blame for Xiao Jinyue's slut!
If it weren't for her, how could there be so many troubles?
Xiao Jinyue ignored Mrs. Li's eager cannibalistic gaze, and turned to the commander of the Xicheng Soldiers and Horses Division who had just been invited by the young man and bowed, "Lord Cao, this Mrs. Li hired three ruffians to chase me down in Cuiyan Villa last time, and today she took advantage of the opening of my shop to take arsenic herself, but she framed me for poisoning my sugar. I want to accuse Mrs. Li of murder and false accusation, and Lord Lao Cao sent her to Dali Temple for review. ”
Xiao Jinyue took the confession from Bai Guo's hand, "This is a confession, and everyone present is a witness." ”
Commander Cao twitched the corners of his mouth, how could this Xiao girl always provoke right and wrong, and I didn't know whether to say that she was unlucky, or that the person who provoked her was unlucky.
However, the confessions have been recorded, and there is no shortage of witnesses, so the people who still provoke Miss Xiao are even more unlucky.
The prince of Nan'an and the prince of Zhenguo were watching from the side, and Commander Cao didn't want to offend them, so with a wave of his hand, the subordinates who came with him immediately stepped forward and escorted Mrs. Li and the grandmother and maid beside her away.
Thinking of her fate, Mrs. Li couldn't stand it anymore, rolled her eyes, and fainted.
