Chapter 289: Debunking

Xuanbao nodded with satisfaction, the third brother is not only smart but also quite knowledgeable, but I don't know if the other brothers and their mothers believe it?

Xiao Kezhong analyzed rationally: "At first, it just collapsed, and then I remembered that the fire started from the main courtyard. ”

"That's right, at that time, several of us were outside the study and kept an eye on Grandmother and Xuanbao inside. I didn't pay attention over there, but which of you did? Xiao Kaili took it.

Hearing Xiao Kaili's words, the people present and the subordinates all shook their heads after trying to recall.

Xuan Bao smiled, and his eyes flashed: "When I was inside, I didn't dare to say anything to others, you must not be so kind to save me, right?" ”

Yes, all eyes fell on Xiao Mingzhu, and indeed after saying a few words at first, she retreated.

The county lord of Rouping and the brothers of the Xiao family were woken up by the little doll, and their eyes were invariably on Xiao Mingzhu's body, but their faces were different, and they had mixed feelings in their hearts.

"I don't have that much strength to move those rocks, is it in the way if I don't retreat?" Xiao Mingzhu's eyes lit up and his waist straightened after speaking, that's right, in the end, she is just a little girl one year older than Xuanbao, and being young has the advantage of being young.

Hearing this, the county lord of Rouping's expression softened, and when she turned around, she was full of momentum: "Come on, check, check it for me." I want to see who has the audacity to plot against the old lady and Xuanbao. ”

"Mother, don't bother, the bold man is close at hand." Xuan Bao pointed unceremoniously at Xiao Mingzhu.

Xiao Mingzhu's face turned pale: "You, you are talking nonsense." ”

The county lord of Rouping was stunned, the brothers of the Xiao family were also stunned, and the people around were all stunned.

"Mother, wronged, I wronged, even if I am not in harmony with Xuanbao, I don't have the courage to do such a thing." Xiao Mingzhu reacted very quickly and knelt in front of the county lord of Rouping and cried.

The county lord of Rouping couldn't bear to see Xiao Mingzhu crying with a handful of tears and snot, if she said that she stumbled on Xuanbao and said a few words, she still believed it, but she really didn't believe that she would do such a vicious method.

"You get up first." After the county lord of Rouping finished speaking, he saw that Xiao Mingzhu was still kneeling and was about to reach out to help her up, but someone next to him stretched out his hand to stop her.

Xiao Kexiao held down his mother's words and said calmly: "I believe in Xuanbao, she will not identify her as arson for no reason." ”

"Second brother!" Xuan Bao looked at Xiao Kexiao and grinned.

"Second brother believes in you." Xiao Kexiao stepped forward and touched the little doll's head, "Say it, say it all." ”

At the same time as Xiao Kexiao and Xuan Bao were talking, Xiao Keren walked over and squatted on Xiao Mingzhu's side.

"Third brother." Xiao Mingzhu turned his head sideways and saw Xiao Keren beside him and shouted excitedly, but he didn't expect that it was him who believed in him at this moment.

As long as someone is on his side, Xuanbao's empty words will not be valid, and the third brother's status in the hearts of the elder brothers and his mother is second only to the eldest brother, Xiao Mingzhu is more relieved to think about this.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Keren suddenly grabbed Xiao Mingzhu's wrist and shouted, "Xuanbao, this is the evidence." ”

"That's right." The little doll clapped her hands happily, "The third brother is smart." ”

Xiao Mingzhu trembled, she didn't understand what was wrong with her hand, and wanted to withdraw it to take a closer look, but Xiao Keren firmly grasped it.

Xiao Keyi rushed over first, and when he bent down and looked down to see Xiao Mingzhu's hand just approaching, he whizzed his neck and looked at her in surprise before retreating with a disappointed face.

The other brothers stepped forward one after another, and soon they all looked at Xiao Mingzhu like Xiao Keyi and shook their heads and sighed.

"Mother, fifth brother, come and have a look." Xiao Keren raised his voice.

Xiao Kaili shook his head: "The fourth brother said that it was her, so it must be her." ”

"No, it's not me, nonsense, what are you looking at?" Xiao Mingzhu really felt wronged and cried, "Mother, mother, you have to believe me." ”

The county lord of Rouping looked at Xuanbao, and the little doll said lightly: "Mother, her hands are stained with water and oil, and the third brother should be able to smell it when he gets close." ”

The crying stopped abruptly, Xiao Mingzhu looked panicked, Xiao Keren sneered, let go of her hand, stood up and retreated behind her mother.

Xiao Mingzhu clenched her hands, she suppressed the urge to raise her hand to smell it, if this was the case, wouldn't it be a slap in the face, but also a proof of her weak heart.

After going to the kitchen of the West Cross Courtyard to find water and oil to light the fire, Xiao Mingzhu admitted that she was negligent, she did not deal with the tail of her hands in time, did not wash her hands, and she really didn't notice whether her hands were stained with the smell of water and oil.

"Mingzhu, isn't it you?" The county lord of Rouping approached Xiao Mingzhu.

"Mother, no, ......."

Finding that Xiao Mingzhu avoided his gaze, the county lord of Rouping raised his voice: "Look into my eyes, tell me if it's right?" ”

The eyes of the Xiao family brothers were focused on Xiao Mingzhu's face, except for Xiao Kezhong, who had changed his soul, the other people still had a little bit of brother and sister affection for her in their hearts, and their expressions were not very good-looking.

"What? Dare to do it or not? Xuan Bao smiled and walked up to Xiao Mingzhu, "If you want to abandon the Hou Mansion and the high branch of the eldest prince, I can leave you alone, but you shouldn't unite with outsiders to frame the Hou Mansion and frame my father." ”

Raising her head with a swish, Xiao Mingzhu understood that she and Xiao Liao thought they were seamless, but in fact, they were all in Xuanbao's hands, how did she know?

In an instant, Xiao Mingzhu felt an unprecedented panic, she was shocked to find that after Xuanbao returned home, everything seemed to be different from the development of her previous life, and she seemed to be clear about every step she took. How much does she really know? And how do you know?

"It's you!" A flash of inspiration flashed in the mind of the county lord of Rouping, "The emperor suddenly ordered the search of the Hou Mansion before, which is related to you and Xiao Liao. ”

Xuan Bao said calmly: "Mother, she conspired with Dongfang Yao and Wang Guifei to hide the letter of collaboration with the enemy and treason in the mansion, but fortunately I was aware of it in advance, and there was not a word on the forged letter that was used to conceal the law. ”

"It's you!" The county lord of Rouping sank his face, "I have always been puzzled, the Praetorian Guard suddenly came to the Hou Mansion and took a turn, but I didn't expect it to be a search, so it is." ”

Xiao Mingzhu quibbled and said: "Mother, Xuanbao is charging me with a crime, I just saw that the eldest prince and Wang Guifei are not familiar with each other, they will not hand over such a big matter to me as a little girl, and besides, I am the adopted daughter of you and my father, and you are so kind to me." ”

"Are you not familiar with Dongfang Yao?" Xuan Bao glanced at Xiao Mingzhu lightly, "The shopkeeper of the Treasure Pavilion can prove that you and him don't always agree to meet there?" ”

"Nothing." So far, Xiao Mingzhu can only insist on denying it.

Xiao Kaili stepped forward: "You are not only familiar with the eldest prince, but also very familiar, I can testify to this." ”

"Fifth brother, you?" Xiao Mingzhu was shocked.

"If I'm not mistaken, I was present when he handed you the letter that day, but you thought I was stunned."
