Chapter 132: The Storm Settles Down (2)
At this moment, people's hearts are very unstable, and Zhou Yi naturally can't point the finger of inquiry at either of them, otherwise if she is not careful, she will fall into the next trap hidden in the dark. He knew in his heart that this little girl in front of him, who pretended to be a little cowardly, was by no means really as people saw, her insidious viciousness caught both him and Yu Xi off guard, and he really didn't know if she had other chess pieces that didn't appear! This time fortunately, his father cleared the siege in time, otherwise he would have lost this game.
However, Zhou Yi also boasted that she was not an ordinary person, since she dared to make a move, she must not be allowed to have another chance to fight back!
He raised his hand to shake the dust off his legs, straightened his slightly messy clothes, and ordered the two Taoist boys to invite the best Langzhong on the mountain, and then raised his hand to explain to everyone: "Everyone, please listen to me, I have a conclusion in my heart on this matter, and I can make the truth public later! But before that, I will explain to you why Xing'er is here, and whether it is possible for her to be used as an accomplice to fight the other party!"
"As we all know, my mother only had the symptoms of poisoning after drinking the wine made by Miss Yu, and at first glance, Miss Yu was the most suspicious, but this matter could not stand scrutiny. If Miss Yu really wants to harm my mother, why should she poison the wine she sent, instead of leaving a way out for herself? So at the beginning, I suspected that there was something strange in this, if it wasn't for my mother's offense and being assassinated, there was only one reason, that someone wanted to poison my mother by borrowing Miss Yu's hand, and then borrowing my hand to deal with Miss Yu!"
The crowd was in an uproar and began to talk about each other. Zhou Yi also said: "Therefore, I asked Xing'er to pretend to be her mother here, and preached to the public that her mother was seriously ill and that she needed an antidote to save her." In addition, I must have heard that on the surface, I was suspicious of Miss Yu, in order to make the person who blamed Miss Yu think that I had been fooled, and then she relaxed her vigilance. Besides, on the bright side, my mother is seriously ill, and if she can't get the antidote, she will be more than lucky, and if the target of the poisoner is Miss Yu, then after her goal is achieved, she will inevitably come to send the antidote to her mother! That's why I let Xing'er pretend to be sick here!"
He told the story, although he was explaining the reason why Xing'er was pretending to be sick here, but it also led him to what he was going to say next.
"Obviously, Xing'er pointed out that the magpie was the one who came to deliver the medicine, and the magpie insisted that it was Miss Yu who came to deliver the medicine on the grounds that Xing'er didn't see it clearly, and said that Miss Yu was going to kill Xing'er to kill her mouth, and she was the person who saved Xing'er!
The magpie looked calm, although she was apprehensive in her heart, but she never showed the color, Zhou Yi glanced at her, and couldn't help but sneer. However, Yu Xi, listening to his remarks, her fluctuating emotions calmed down a little, and she stood with her sword in hand, just waiting for Zhou Yi's final judgment.
Zhong Yu saw that the situation had changed, and everyone seemed to be no longer coaxing, so he asked Zhou Yi: "Brother, I have something I want to ask you!"
The corners of Zhou Yi's mouth raised, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "Say it." ”
"Since you said let the evidence speak, there are two things in front of you, if a lunch box is not enough to explain anything, I also admit it, after all, the lunch box is not a precious thing, Miss Yu has no intention of taking care of it, it is indeed possible that someone stole it and used it to frame it. But this person's handwriting is innate, and this unburned note is clearly written, how can you defend her?" Zhong Yu hit the nail on the head, and never forgot to smear Yu Xi.
"It is this seemingly unassailable evidence that makes me more and more convinced that Miss Yu is innocent!" Zhou Yi's words made Yu Xi's heart warm, and the sword she was holding tightly in her hand slowly put down.
"What do you mean?"
"As I said, if Miss Yu is really the murderer of her mother, she will not poison the wine she brews, let alone burn the evidence of her mother's harm in front of Mrs. Han's spirit, and only let it burn half of it!
"Hmph, I think you mean to defend her!" Zhong Yu snorted coldly, disdainful of Zhou Yi's words.
"I guess not only you will think so, but many people here will think so, and it doesn't matter, I'll prove it to you one by one!"
As he spoke, he clapped his hands three times, and then a few people walked out of the door, only to see three or five Taoist children escorting a young man over.
Zhou Yi said: "This person is a guy in the wine shop at the bottom of the mountain, I just asked someone to pick him up from the mountain, and he doesn't know anything about the mountain, but I want her to testify against two people." ”
As he spoke, he raised his hand slightly to the guy and said, "Brother Lao, I invite you to come here today, just to let you identify, which girls went to you to borrow koji a month ago?"
The guy clasped his fists and saluted, his eyes swept in front of everyone one by one, and when he saw Yu Xi, he whispered to Zhou Yi, "This girl has been there once first, and there is another one with her." ”
When Zhou Yi heard this, he led him to Murong Xue and asked, "Is there still this girl?"
The guy immediately laughed and said, "That's right, it's these two fairy-like girls!"
"Okay!" Zhou Yi turned back to everyone, "On my mother's birthday, Miss Yu gave her home-brewed pure lotus wine is well known, and there is no koji on the mountain, so she can only go to the wine shop below the mountain to buy it, there is no need to question this." As he spoke, he asked the little brother again, "Please take a look, is there anyone else here who has been to your place?"
The man nodded in agreement, and glanced through the crowd again, and at this time the magpie was weak, and his back was already facing inside.
"Magpie, why don't you turn your head around?" As soon as Zhou Yi spoke, everyone noticed, so they all shouted for the magpie to turn around and let the little brother identify him. The magpie had no choice but to turn his head.
"Yes, and her, she gave more money, and in addition to buying some koji, she asked me about the craft of making wine, and told me not to ...... her Tell others about her visit to the liquor store...... the guy said with a weak heart, and he couldn't help but bow his head.
Zhou Yi walked up to the magpie with his back hand, pointed at Murong Xue and Yu Xi and said to her, "After you asked Zhong Yu to find out about the gifts prepared by the two girls for their mother, they deliberately made a mess in the wine. You have people buy a large number of strychnine seeds from the pharmacy at the bottom of the mountain, and use the crumbs on the strychnine and lotus platform to blind Miss Yu's eyes, and mix those poisons into the lotus seeds she brews, in an attempt to create the illusion that she poisoned her mother with wine, right?"
The magpie bowed his head and said nothing, but there was a grit on his lips. 000 Literature
Zhou Yi continued: "You were worried that someone would find out in the process of putting poison, so you also went to Furong Stream on the pretext of picking lotus seeds to make wine, but no one found you at that time, so you had to pick some and go back to make your own wine, which is why you bought koji from the wine shop down the mountain, right or wrong?"
The magpie still didn't answer.
Zhou Yi's words were awe-inspiring, pressing step by step.
"I've already asked people to check the wine you brewed from Zhong Yu, and it can't be imported at all! This is enough to show that you are only making wine to deal with it!"
Zhong Yu's expression was sad, with a sad and desperate expression, "Brother, you are actually ......"
Zhou Yi was angry in his heart, of course, he didn't pay attention to it anymore, and said again: "If you want to say this note, magpie, you have put a lot of effort into this! You don't know, I don't have to avoid suspicion, I have known Miss Yu since childhood, and we often exchange letters, and the letters are in my study, and ordinary people will not see them." A month ago, Zhong Yuruo still remembered that time when I reprimanded the magpie, I am afraid that she would never have imagined that it was because she peeked at the correspondence between me and Miss Yu!"
Zhong Yu lowered her head and thought about it, it was really the case that day, but she was completely unable to stop Zhou Yi from exposing the magpie at this time.
"As I expected, the fire in my courtyard today was also deliberately done, not only to divert the guards in front of my mother's door, but also to give some people the opportunity to find this note from the ancestral hall and create a natural opportunity. As he spoke, he clapped his hands again, and three or five more Taoist boys came over and immediately took down the Taoist boy who had just come to deliver the note.
"We have found some gold and silver in his room, as well as letters of his fornication. ”
Zhou Yi sneered: "You don't have to read the letter, the important things have been burned a long time ago, and those who stay must fight for his innocence." But you are a little Taoist boy, how can you have so much gold and silver?"
That Daotong was originally a downline, he had no experience, and when he was asked by Zhou Yi, he immediately trembled with fright, knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, "Childe spares his life, the villain did not participate in harming Mrs., it was the magpie who asked the villain to go to the ancestral hall to find an unburned note, and said that he would present the note to Childe in front of everyone!"
Yu Xi gritted her teeth as she listened, and the sword in her hand also creaked! Zhou Yi glanced back at her, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.
"Just based on the words of a Taoist boy, how can people be convinced, and know that there is no suspicion of being instructed by others?" Zhong Yu was unwilling, and then refuted the magpie.
"Well, although he is not enough to convict the magpie, he can finally clear the grievances of Miss Yu. Zhou Yi sighed, and then said: "Don't think that if you don't recruit people, I won't have a choice!
"Childe is waiting for someone, right?" the magpie smiled faintly and finally spoke.
"That's right, you're a smart opponent!"
"Brother, it's not just her who comes to my mother's room, but also ......"
"I asked Yu Xi to come!" A crisp voice came from behind them, and when everyone turned around, they saw Zhang walking over with Lily.
Zhou Yi and Yu Xi immediately greeted him, and Yu Xi threw herself into Zhang's arms with tears, crying speechless.
Yufu comforted her a few words, turned back to Zhong Yu and said, "You don't have to hold on to Yu Xi, I asked her to come." ”
"Mother, you ......"
Yufu said: "You are all filial and good children, I have high hopes for all of you, and I don't want any of you to get involved in these intrigues." I know that your brother is worried about my affairs, today is your master's birthday, there are not enough people here, so I will ask Yu Xi to come over and be a helper. She, like you, was raised by me, no different from my own children, and I don't believe any of you could harm me!"
Zhong Yu was sad and couldn't cry, after all, she knew in her heart that what the magpie had done was beyond right and wrong.
However, Yu Xi listened to Yufu's words, and felt uncomfortable, he was entrusted by Zhou Yi to help Xing'er here, but he didn't expect Yufu to come over to solve the situation. "Madame......"
Yufu smiled slightly, naturally understanding what she was thinking, "You don't have to say much, I know your thoughts, it's enough." ”
As he was talking, a few people were talking outside, and the best Langzhong in the mountain had been invited.
Zhou Yi calmed down and said lightly: "The person I was waiting for is here!"
