The woman with the hairpin and white velvet flower followed Chunjun into the house, walked straight to Lianqiao without squinting, raised her hand and "snapped", and slapped Lianqiao in the face!

"Cheap hoof, you dare to be with others, and you are pregnant with evil seeds, it is simply a misfortune for the family! If Fluttershy hadn't come to tell me, I'd still be in the dark with you! ”

Lian Qiao was beaten and staggered, her little face turned pale with fright, and she knelt on the ground.

"Uncle, Lian'er didn't ...... Not pregnant......" she said tremblingly, tears falling down her cheeks.

The woman's eyebrows furrowed.

"It's hard-mouthed!" She raised her hand, and was going to fight again—

Suddenly, her wrist tightened, and she was grabbed by a white hand.

The woman turned her eyes in surprise, and saw Shen Lingxi's beautiful and dusty face, glowing with coldness. With a pair of clear eyes, Zheng Qing Ling Ling looked at her with a hint of displeasure.

Shen Lingxi didn't sympathize with Lianqiao being beaten, but he simply didn't like this kind of scene.

"Miss Shen......" The woman recognized Shen Lingxi at a glance, let out a low breath, and hurriedly confessed, "The slave maid is clumsy, I didn't see that the girl was there, and I asked the girl to forgive me." ”

Shen Lingxi's apricot eyes were slightly raised, and he let go of his hand, "Who are you?" How will you know me? ”

The woman respectfully blessed her, "The slave and maid are the stewards who serve beside the grandmother, the man is called Tuesday, and the masters are called the slave and the maid Tuesday's family, the girl came to bury the corpse of the ancestor before, and the slave and maid have seen the girl beside the grandmother." ”

Grandma, it's Zheng Yurong.

The old ancestor on the side frowned and looked at the Tuesday family, "Yurong's temperament has always been gentle, I didn't pay attention to it before, there is such a powerful steward by her side." ”

Xie's mother saw her granddaughter being beaten, and her face was not very good-looking.

"Ancestor, you forgot, the slave's son Cheng Shi was the one you pointed out to be a relative, and he married the tassel who served in the master's room."

"She is a tasseled brother-in-law, called Zhao Chunlan, who used to be a steward in Zhuangzi, and then the eldest grandmother was in charge of the middle feed, and there was no one around to use it, so the slave recommended her to the eldest grandmother."

The old ancestor was a little impressed.

Shen Lingxi listened to the woman's origin and asked, "Did the eldest grandmother ask you to come?" ”

"Exactly." Zhao Chunlan's face was very confused, "Xiao Fluttershy, who was helping in this yard just now, came to tell the slave maid that there was a girl who knew pharmacology, and said that Lianqiao was taking the wrong medicine, and the slave was very worried, so she showed the medicine to the girl who knew pharmacology next to the eldest grandmother, and said that it was a fetal pill......

Speaking of this, she put on a righteous appearance of killing her relatives: "Although Lianqiao is the niece of the slave, the slave and the maid heard from the little maid next to the uncle that the uncle has found out about Xie's mother's private seal. Mother Xie was suspected of murdering her ancestors, and the slave didn't dare to hide it, so she reported it to her grandmother. ”

"The eldest grandmother thought about Lianqiao's fetus, I was afraid that there was something wrong, so she ordered the slave to come and tie up this girl and hand it over to the embroiderer."

Shen Lingxi found it very interesting.

First, the eldest son of the Su family found out that Xie's mother had carved a seal privately, and then the eldest grandmother sent the housekeeper around her to "kill relatives with righteousness".

Looking at it, it can be said that the husband and wife are singing and the wife are together, and they all want to help Su Xian get rid of his crimes.

It's just that if the couple really helped Su Xian get away with the crime, it would be tantamount to proving that the second grandmother Xie Wanyan had committed perjury.

When the time comes, the two grandchildren of the ancestors are afraid that they will fight.

What Shen Lingxi could think of, the old ancestor would not have thought of.

She glared at Mother Xie, "Didn't you just say that there is nothing to hide from me?" Your granddaughter is pregnant, can you not know? Whose seed is she carrying in her belly? ”

"Slave maid...... The slave really doesn't know. Mother Xie made a blank look.

The old ancestor smiled angrily, "Only by diagnosing the happy pulse can you drink the fetal medicine, if you want to diagnose the happy pulse, this fetus must be at least three months old." She serves in my house on weekdays, if you don't cover her up, can the people in the Agarwood Courtyard know nothing about this matter? At this time, you are still playing dumb riddles with me, Xie Qiuhua, I want to see what will happen to you in the end! ”

With that, the old ancestor floated out angrily.

Mother Xie lowered her eyebrows.

Her people are already dead, what else can happen.

Now, she only hopes that her granddaughter, who can survive this catastrophe with her son.

In this way, it is not in vain that she dies like this.

Shen Lingxi took in Mother Xie's expression, the corners of her lips were slightly hooked, she turned sideways, and said to Zhao Chunlan: "Since that's the case, my aunt will go." ”

Then, he walked to Chunjun's side.

Although Zhao Chunlan didn't know why Shen Lingxi appeared at Xie's mother's house, it could be seen that Shen Lingxi had a great relationship with the embroidered envoy, so she didn't dare to ask more, so she responded respectfully.

She grabbed Lianqiao's clothes, rudely lifted Lianqiao, who was crying with pear blossoms and rain, from the ground, handed it to the servant women behind her, and asked them to carry her away.

Xie's mother was worried about her granddaughter, so she hurriedly floated behind and followed.

Zhao Chunlan ordered the servants and maids who came with her: "Grandma has an order, search this house inside and out, but anyone who finds useful clues and can help the embroiderer and the uncle investigate the case will be rewarded with ten taels of silver." ”

Under the heavy reward, the servants and maids were full of spirit, and searched around the house.

Zhao Chunlan whispered a few more words to one of the servants, then retired with Shen Lingxi and walked out.

Shen Lingxi looked at Zhao Chunlan thoughtfully, and whispered to Chunjun: "I'll go back to Bofu first, and you can keep an eye on it." ”

Chunjun responded, and Shen Lingxi left.

*

Back in Wu'anbo's Mansion, in order to facilitate his actions, Shen Lingxi changed back to the dress of an embroidered envoy.

And this time, the courtyard where the embroidered envoy was stationed was already full of people.

On the contrary, the mourning hall next door was deserted, and the guests who came to mourn were all taken by the housekeeper to dine next to them.

At noon, Wu Anbo and his wife, two sons and daughters-in-law were all invited to the hall.

Chu Yan sat on the top with a cold expression, and lowered his eyes to look at Lianqiao and Zhao Chunlan kneeling in the hall.

Shen Lingxi slipped into the main hall in small steps, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Chu Yan's cold phoenix eyes, which happened to look at him.

Inevitably, like last time, he beckoned her in full view of everyone.

Shen Lingxi hurriedly made a silent gesture with him, and consciously slipped from behind him to stand beside him.

Chu Yan turned sideways towards her, and his voice was low, "You go to trial." ”

Only then did Shen Lingxi realize that Chunjun was watching in Xie's mother's courtyard, and since she was standing here, she was going to take over Chunjun's position.

It's good.

If the imperial grandson went to interrogate in person, Shen Lingxi estimated that Lianqiao would be so frightened that she couldn't even speak.

She cleared her throat and looked at Lianqiao, "Yesterday before your grandmother passed by, you said those things, but the truth?" You have to think about it, this is the last chance that Your Highness will give you, no matter whether what you said last time is true or not, as long as you tell the truth this time, Your Highness will not care about you for the sake of you being pregnant. ”

She hoped that Fang Cai's warning might have some effect on Lianqiao.

Lianqiao had already stopped her tears, hesitated, and replied timidly, "What the slave said last time...... It's all the truth. ”

Shen Lingxi's apricot eyes were slightly raised.

"In that case, then I will say what you testified in front of Your Highness last time, in front of the masters of the Bofu, and say it again."
