Chapter 22: She's Lying

"Ahh

"What's going on!"

Zhongyibo was in a hurry, followed by many guests, and almost all the people who attended the banquet came.

They exuded a strong smell of alcohol, but at the moment their expressions were exceptionally clear.

Zhen Shangshu is an important minister of the imperial court, not to mention what impact his killing in the Zhongyi Bofu will have, as far as the court is concerned, it will affect the changes of many forces.

"Dad, Zhen Shangshu was killed by the princess of the county."

Zhongyi Bo frowned, he was not as naΓ―ve as Qi Xiaoyu, no matter whether Zhen Shangshu died at the hands of Jiang Yuhuan or not, he Zhongyi Bofu could not escape responsibility.

He pushed Qi Xiaoyu away and walked in, Zhen Shangshu was lying on the ground, but there was no Jiang Yuhuan in the house.

"Sir!" Mrs. Zhen hurriedly came, her hair was in a mess, and when she saw Zhen Shangshu lying on the ground silently, she broke down and cried.

"Who is it! Who killed my master! ”

Mrs. Zhen hugged Zhen Shangshu and was grief-stricken, and everyone couldn't bear to look at it.

In the end, Uncle Zhongyi is the master, and he must handle this matter properly.

He walked over to see if Zhen Shangshu was still saved, but was stopped by Mrs. Zhen.

"Go away! Don't touch my master! Uncle Zhongyi, you must give me an explanation for this matter, otherwise I will fight for my life and let you be buried in Uncle Zhongyi's mansion! ”

Mrs. Zhen was born in a family of military generals, and she does have this ability.

Zhongyibo's face was extremely ugly, but he had nowhere to vent, so he could handle the matter properly first.

"What about the princess?"

Qi Xiaoyu found out that Jiang Yuhuan was not there, and gloated: "Didn't you abscond in fear of crime?" ”

The people who were good friends with Qi Xiaoyu followed suit.

"Her handmaid is not here, did she hide after the killing?"

"If you want me to say that it's not good to be crazy, otherwise you can kill people at will?"

"I've never heard of a bad heart, a good thing."

Zhongyibo listened to their discussion with a calm face, and shouted: "Come on, go find the princess of the county." ”

"I heard, someone is looking for me?"

Jiang Yuhuan's voice came from behind the crowd, and everyone turned around.

Hearing Jiang Yuhuan's voice, Qi Xiaoyu was extremely excited, and she already thought of the scene where she was arrested and put in prison.

"Ginger...... Princess Jun, where have you been? ”

"Of course, it's with my county king."

"I know that the princess of the county has not come, and the princess of the county has to have a ...... if she lies."

The crowd gradually dispersed, and everyone gave way to a passage, revealing the figures of Jiang Yuhuan and Fu Yuhan behind the crowd.

Qi Xiaoyu's words were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

"When the king of the county came, no one told me." Zhongyibo asked.

"I've been here for a while, and it's this king who doesn't let people say it. This king came to pick up Ah Huan and went home, and he didn't want to sweep everyone's Yaxing. ”

"Where is the king?" Zhongyibo stiffened his face and didn't buy Fu Yinglong's statement.

"I seem to have heard someone say that Ah Huan killed someone?"

Uncle Zhongyi still had the posture of wanting to ask Jiang Yuhuan for questions, and then he pretended to be angry, "Who said that the princess of the county killed someone?" Is there any evidence for this? ”

"Daddy!" Qi Xiaoyu shouted dissatisfiedly, what kind of evidence are you talking about now, just put the murder charge on Jiang Yuhuan's body!

Jiang Yuhuan killed people to pay for her life, and the princess of the county was not in her bag.

Zhongyi glanced at her, she pursed her lips, and reluctantly said the servant.

The handmaid stood up tremblingly, "Yes, it was the slave who said it." ”

"Do you have proof?"

The maidservant fell to her knees with her legs limp, and her lips trembled to tell the story.

"The slave saw it with her own eyes. The slave maid passed by the guest house, and suddenly heard screams coming from the house, and for a moment of curiosity, she quietly opened the crack in the door to look. Who knows, I saw Shangshu ......"

Mrs. Zhongyi Bo had the same idea as Qi Xiaoyu, she just wanted to convict Jiang Yuhuan as soon as possible, she urged: "If you see something, say it quickly!" ”

"See Shangshu...... Shang Shu ...... "The maid didn't dare to look at everyone, she shook her shoulders and said, "Shang Shu, he hugged the princess of the county......"

Hearing this, everyone was incredulous.

Mrs. Zhen scolded angrily with red eyes, "Nonsense! My lord is the most upright, how could he do such a shameless act! ”

Mrs. Ning Guogong spoke, "Don't be annoyed, Mrs. Zhen, and listen to her." The officials of the Criminal Department and Dali Temple are here, and they will definitely be able to give Zhen Shangshu justice. ”

After speaking, she said softly to the maidservant, "You continue." ”

The maid shrunk and whispered, "Lord Shangshu is holding the princess of the county...... wanted to do something wrong, the princess of the county shouted and wanted to break free, but Shangshu ...... Later, the slave saw the princess take out a dagger and stab ...... Stabbed in the chest. ”

Jiang Yuhuan listened to the whole process, and then slowly spoke, "You said you saw it with your own eyes?" ”

"Yes."

She wondered, "But I left after I woke up, and I didn't even see Zhen Shangshu's face." ”

The maid is not afraid at this time, and she is categorical, "The slave is sure that what she sees is the princess of the county." ”

Jiang Yuhuan pretended to be distressed like a nobody: "You and I have our own opinions, it's hard to distinguish between them." ”

At this time, Qi Xiaoyu spoke, "My family's alcohol is full of energy, how could you sober up so quickly!" ”

"Xiaoyu!" Qi Yi stepped forward and was about to pull Qi Xiaoyu behind him, and his eyes warned her not to speak.

Qi Xiaoyu shook off vigorously and ran behind Mrs. Zhongyibo.

Jiang Yuhuan said: "Really? So why are the others still awake now? ”

Qi Xiaoyu rolled her eyes, suddenly remembering that Fu Ying was also there, and quickly lowered her eyes, "You have a bad amount of alcohol." ”

"What if I say I didn't drink at all?"

"Everyone watched you drink, how could you get drunk if you didn't drink!"

"yes, we all saw it."

"Acting with my good sister." Jiang Yuhuan spread out the sleeve of his left hand, "I'm afraid that Jiang Li will drug me, and I will all fall on the sleeve." Jiang Li saw that I was drunk and sent me here to rest. I heard her talk about a promiscuous princess of the county, and how to fight with her. Knowing that she was going to hurt me, I left as soon as she left. ”

Qi Xiaoyu looked around, wanting Jiang Li to come out to refute, but found that Jiang Li was not there, so she had to come by herself.

"It's all your words."

Mrs. Zhongyi Bo also explained, "Princess Jun, the wine in this house is all prepared by our own people, and Jiang Li can't be drugged." ”

Mrs. Yang also helped, "Yes, at that time, we all saw that Lili was taking a pot of wine casually, and she drank it herself. ”

"Of course I have proof. Everyone saw that I had deliberately observed the wine jug that Jiang Li had brought over, and that jug was different from the others. ”

"What's the difference?" ”

"Uncle sent someone to fetch it, in case someone did anything to prevent someone from doing anything, I suggest inviting a few adults and Mrs. and Miss to pick it up together."

Zhongyibo waved his hand, "Okay, come on, go get it." ”

"Sanqi, you know what that pot of wine looks like, you go with it."

"Yes."

It didn't take long for Sanqi and the others to bring the wine jug.

Some people wondered, "How can there be so many?" ”

"At the time, it was to show the difference between flasks and flasks. You see, there is a slight difference between this flask and other flasks on the bottle. ”

"What's the difference?"

Before Jiang Yuhuan could speak, someone saw the difference in his sharp eyes and said loudly: "Direction!" Although the pattern of the bottle is the same, the orientation of this pattern is different. ”

"At first glance, it seems to be."

"What does this mean?" Qi Xiaoyu didn't care, she only thought that this was an excuse made by Jiang Yuhuan to clear his suspicion.

"This flask is marked, indicating that Jiang Li was not chosen randomly."

"Indeed, if the wine is fine, why bother marking it."

"But Jiang Li drank it herself." Jiang Li and Jiang Yuhuan drank the same pot of wine, it didn't make sense that Jiang Li was fine.

"Wait, there's a different pot here."

Qi Xiaoyu's eyes lit up, and she thought she had caught a flaw, "Princess Jun, it's not just Jiang Li's pot that is different, maybe it's just a coincidence that the craftsman got it wrong." Isn't your explanation a bit far-fetched? ”

Jiang Yuhuan was not in a hurry, "I want to ask everyone who went to get the wine jug, where did this other jug come from?" ”

"It's from the table."

As soon as someone said it, everyone also reacted, "So, there is also a problem with Lord Shangshu's wine?" ”

Mrs. Zhen also grasped this point, "Ladies and gentlemen, it seems that my lord's death was premeditated, and I hope that your lordship will administer justice to me!" ”

"Mrs. Zhen, don't worry, we will never let the murderer go unpunished."

"Uncle, how do you explain?"

"Just because two different jugs of wine are different, do you think there is something wrong with the wine? Jiang Li drank it herself. ”

Qi Xiaoyu always grasped Jiang Li's point, and Jiang Yu happily gave her an answer.

She said, "Take two glasses and try them." Imperial Doctor Du, please take a look. ”

Imperial Physician Du bowed his hand, "It is incumbent on the lower officials." ”

Soon the maidservant took two wine glasses, Jiang Yuhuan took the wine jug, and poured the wine respectively.

Imperial Doctor Du took it to his nose and sniffed it, as if he was not sure, and put a little more in his mouth.

Then he nodded, "There is sweat medicine in this cup, but there is no in this cup." ”

Qi Xiaoyu exclaimed, her voice sharp and piercing, "How come!" How can one of the wine poured out of a flask be drugged and the other not? ”

Jiang Yuhuan was not in a hurry to answer, and handed over his sleeve, "Imperial Doctor Du, you smell my sleeve." ”

Doctor Du said "offensive", and then leaned over to smell it.

This time he didn't hesitate, and said categorically: "It's sweat medicine." The smell of wine on the sleeve of the princess dissipated, and the smell of medicine was more obvious. ”

Jiang Yuhuan nodded, and then picked up the wine jug to show everyone, "Look, there is a mechanism under the handle of this wine jug." There are actually two kinds of wine in it, and the mechanism can control whether it is medicated or unmedicated, which also explains why Jiang Li is fine after drinking it. ”

"Even if you didn't drink, then how do you explain that the maid saw you kill Zhen Shangshu!"

"It's not obvious yet? She lied. Jiang Yu looked at the maidservant with a smile, "Do you really see me killing?" ”

"Yes...... Slaves...... The slave saw it with her own eyes. ”

"You saw me kill Shangshu?"

"Yes."

"When?"

"When the slave found out, she went to call someone."

Jiang Yuhuan was surprised, "That was not long ago?" But I stayed with the prince for two quarters of an hour. And according to you, there should be blood on my body. ”

Two quarters of an hour is far longer than the time for the maid to call people after watching the killing process, and Jiang Yuhuan's clothes are also very clean.

Qi Xiaoyu still didn't give up, "Who knows if the king of the county is protecting you?" We've been shopping around the house for a long time, why haven't we seen you? ”

"I ......"

"I see it!" Sun Jiaojiao saw that Qi Yi was going to come out to testify, so she hurriedly hurried in front of him to speak.

Qi Xiaoyu's eyes shot at Sun Jiaojiao like a knife, and her tone was threatening, "Jiaojiao, did you really see it?" ”
