Chapter 94 Mid-count 1
He hurriedly dressed neatly and rushed to the front hall. On the way, he met the fourth aunt who was also going to the front hall. Xia Mengning was worried and walked over to help Ge Shi and said, "Auntie, are you all right?"
Gurdgets nodded, and the two looked at each other, looking worried.
When he arrived at the front hall, he saw that Ning and Wei and everyone were there. Xia Mengning helped Ge to sit down and look around. Everyone looked panicked. Obviously, they didn't know much about what happened tonight.
As soon as Xia Mengning sat down, she saw Xia Chuanyuan coming in from the door with the little sixth son. Everyone hurriedly saluted. Xia Chuanyuan waved his hand, "Sit down."
Everyone sat down with a wistful face. Xia Chuanyuan went to the top and sat down. He looked around and said, "Bring people up!"
Several nurses lifted Yuyue's body up, and everyone was shocked. Xia Chuanyuan said harshly, "Open it!"
A nurse came forward and lifted the white cloth covering Yuyue's body. Suddenly, the bloody face clearly appeared in front of everyone.
"Ah--!"
Almost everyone covered their eyes at the same time. They were timid and didn't even dare to look, and hid directly behind others.
When Xia Chuanyuan saw everyone's reaction, he frowned and coughed a few times. The little sixth son beside him immediately stepped forward and shouted, "This night, Miss Yuyue's body was found in the small pond in the garden of our house. Everyone knows that Miss Yuyue is the master's new house. This matter is simply It is really unforgivable to kill and throw corpses in the prime minister's house. Everyone looked frightened. Xia Chuanyuan continued, "Now the whole house is here. Now let's talk about it one by one. Who has been around the small pond during the day today?"
Everyone looked at me and looked at you. I don't know what to say. Finally, several old women stood up and said a few words. At this time, Dai Yue, who stood aside, felt Ning's eyes. Dai Yue was shocked and looked forward along Ning's eyes. Finally, she stood up cruelly.
"Sir, I have seen someone go to the small pond."
With that, Dai Yue walked to the center of the hall. Xia Chuanyuan looked at her and asked, "Who?"
Dai Yue lowered her head and heard Xia Chuanyuan's question, so she raised her head to look at the direction of Xia Mengning and said, "At noon today, I was ordered by my aunt to go to Yong'an Hall to see if the master was there. When I came back, I saw the fourth aunt and the girl quarreling with Yuyue by the small pond. I didn't hear the content clearly, but only saw the fourth aunt. After slapping Yuyue, the maidservant thought that it was better to do more than to do less, so he quietly walked away.
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Mengning immediately felt that things were not good. She subconsciously looked in the direction of Ge's beside her and saw that Ge's face turned pale. Xia Mengning's heart was so excited that she knew that she and her aunt had fallen into the trap of others.
"Fourth aunt, what's going on?" Xia Chuanyuan didn't expect that the person mentioned by Dai Yue was Ge. Although he didn't believe it, he still frowned and asked Ge.
Ge Shi stood up from his seat and walked to the central Fu body and said, "In the words of the master, the maidservant has been to the small pond, seen Yuyue, and also slapped her, but the maidservant did not kill Yuyue."
After saying that, everyone looked surprised. The fourth aunt did not avoid suspicion at all, but in this way, the most suspicious person is undoubtedly the fourth aunt. After all, she meets the time and the motivation.
"Sister Su Wen is kind and kind-hearted, and she is never willing to beat others. How can she make an exception today?" Ning sat aside and said leisurely.
Ge Shi didn't make a sound. Xia Chuanyuan looked at it and had some doubts in his heart. Yes, Meier was the most gentle and considerate. She never blushed with people. Why did she hit Yuyue today?
At this moment, the jadeite came forward and knelt down on the ground with a 'plop'. "In my words, my aunt didn't want to care about Yuyue, but Yuyue not only humiliated my aunt several times, but also cursed the child in my aunt's stomach. My aunt was so angry that she beat her. Then we left. My aunt absolutely didn't kill her. Yuyue, my lord."
Ning Shi heard the words and snorted coldly, "You are the girl next to my sister. Can you count your words? Who doesn't know that the master has been spoiling Yuyue recently? I'm afraid that my sister is jealous, so she won't stop and kill Yuyue.
"You are bleeding!" Feicui hurriedly shouted, "How can my aunt be jealous of Yuyue? My aunt is pregnant with the master's flesh and blood. How can she kill Yuyue?"
Ning Shi blinked, "Isn't there you? You were by my sister's side at that time. Maybe you were also an accomplice!"
"You..."
Xia Chuanyuan looked at the two quarreling and was a little irritable: "Okay, all right, shut up!"
Ning shrugged her mouth a little aggrievedly and looked at Xia Chuanyuan and said, "Sir, look at the girl next to my sister, how dare you talk to me like this."
Xia Chuanyuan stared at her and asked, "Who else has seen the fourth aunt go to the small pond?"
Everyone shook their heads. Xia Chuanyuan looked at it and said, "First, bury the body. I will find out this matter. Before that, the fourth aunt will stay in the house and don't walk around."
Ning's face was unwilling, "Master, why should you be interrogated carefully..."
Xia Chuanyuan had already stood up and walked out. Hearing the words, he couldn't help turning around and looking at Ning's gloating face, he was very upset. If it hadn't been for her own flesh and blood in her stomach, he wouldn't have spoken to her so kindly.
"Sir..." When Ning saw that Xia Chuanyuan was about to leave, she hurried forward.
Xia Chuanyuan suddenly turned around and said, "That's enough, Mei'er has been in love with me for more than 20 years. What kind of person she is. Naturally, I know it's easy for you to have a baby. It's none of your business."
After saying that, he ignored how Ning didn't let go, so he shook his sleeves and left.
Xiao Liuzi looked at several people's faces and walked over to Xia Mengning and said, "Miss San, it's dark and the road is slippery. You'd better help your fourth aunt back."
Xia Mengning nodded and said to Ge Shi beside her, "Auntie, let's go." When he turned around, he took a deep look at Dai Yue, who was standing aside. His eyes were like a torch, which made Dai Yue couldn't help shivering.
Ning bit her lips angrily, and Mother Wang behind her came forward to hold her arm and shook it gently.
Xia Mengning helped Ge Shi back to Meifang Garden. Ge Shi sighed and said, "I thought that Ning would stop after she was pregnant. Why did she still be tireless? She wanted me to die before she would stop."
Xia Mengning sat aside and poured tea for Ge Shi. "Auntie, have a cup of hot tea."
Ge Shi took the cup, and Xia Mengning said again, "It's definitely not that simple, auntie. Since your father believes in you, you can relax. I will definitely investigate clearly and clear my aunt."
Gu Shi heard this and hurriedly shook his head. "No, Ning's heart is vicious. If I can't deal with it, I will naturally deal with you. Now that our mother and daughter have become a thorn in her side, how can you provoke her again?"
Xia Mengning didn't make a sound, but just patted Ge's hand.
After Ge Shi fell asleep, Xia Mengning returned to Zhuzhi Garden. Before leaving, she also told Feicui to protect Ge Shi well. If anything happens, come to Zhuzhi Garden as soon as possible.
She returned to the bamboo garden with Jiuer Zhulian. Xia Mengning washed her face and looked at her, "Where's Wu Qing? Didn't you come back?"
Jiu'er shook her head, "I didn't see her. Maybe I went out."
Xia Mengning nodded, "Go out."
Jiu'er lowered her head and retreated, but Xia Mengning was stunned. She only felt an unusual fragrance from the tip of her nose, which seemed to be some kind of familiar smell.
The night was like water. Xia Meng was lying **, and the moonlight sprinkled through the green gauze tent, spreading a layer of soft light in the room.
A figure in cloth came in gently from the door and walked to **. When he was about to reach out and open the tent, he was quickly clamped by the ** man, and a sharp dagger touched the person's neck.
"Who?!"
Xia Mengning asked softly. After a while, the man opened his teeth and claws, and then lowered his voice and said, "It's me!"
Xia Mengning heard the sound, took the opportunity to light the candle on the table, and saw Wu Qing sitting in front of his bed.
"It's you!" Xia Mengning said, "Why are you pretending to be a ghost?"
Wu Qing stared at Xia Mengning and waved out the candle on the table. Xia Mengning was about to make a sound when she was suddenly covered her mouth. Wu Qing took the help of her arms and rolled to **, quickly covered the quilt, hid herself in the depths of the big bed, and shut up to Xia Mengning.
Xia Mengning understood what Wu Qing meant at a glance. At this time, as soon as her ears moved, she heard a very fine sound from the garden.
Is there someone outside the window? Xia Meng's heart sank suddenly. Who is it? Is it the person sent by Ning to kill her? If so, won't her aunt be more dangerous?
Although she thought so, Xia Mengning knew that Wu Qing saw all this, so she quickly adjusted her breathing and pretended to be asleep.
The sound outside the window paused for a while before gently moving out of the yard. After a while, Xia Mengning opened her eyes and suddenly sat up from **. Wu Qing also came out of ** and sat by the bed.
Xia Mengning frowned and asked, "What's going on? Who is the person outside?"
Wu Qing whispered, "I went to the garden to inquire today. I saw with my own eyes that Ning took out her bloody clothes from Dai Yue's room. Yuyue was killed by Dai Yue. Ning wanted to blackmail Dai Yue with this and let her frame her fourth aunt."
Xia Mengning was shocked. It turned out to be like this. After thinking about it, she asked, "Who was the person just now? How did you know?"
Wu Qing sighed and said for a long time, "It's Jiu'er."
What?! Xia Mengning was shocked, but Wu Qing whispered and quietly said a few words in Xia Mengning's ear.
Seeing that Xia Mengning was still suspicious, Wu Qing waved to her. The two went out of the door together, came to the next room, and gently pushed the door open. Wu Qing said, "Zhu Lian has fallen asleep."
Xia Mengning opened her eyes wide. Sure enough, there was only Pearl Lotus, but Jiu'er disappeared.
Wu Qing stepped forward to test the breath of Zhulian and said, "I was fascinated by someone."
After listening to this, Xia Mengning only felt that the blood all over her body surged to the top of her head, and there were chills behind her.
The two returned to Xia Mengning's room. Wu Qing sighed and whispered, "Ning asked Liu Hanyan to help her and promised to give her one hundred taels as a reward. Unexpectedly, Liu Hanyan was a gambler, so he threatened Ning to give her money again and again."
Xia Mengning nodded, "No wonder Ning has to go to the account room to advance 500 taels."
Wu Qing was 'en' and then said, "Ning Shi knew that you went to talk to Li Yan and asked him not to give her money in advance, so he was ashamed and angry and wanted to harm you. This afternoon, Wang's mother next to Ning went to hire people from the Yan clan and came to assassinate you."
When Xia Mengning heard the words, she thought about it carefully. She was not afraid but smiled softly. "Although the Yan clan is the first killer organization in the world, I don't pay attention to it. It's just that the Ning family is so bold. Let's make a plan."
With that, he whispered a few words to Wu Qing. Before he finished speaking, Wu Qing shook his head: "No, you can't go. If the eldest brother knows, I will die."
Xia Mengning shook her head and said, "I won't be in danger. In case there is danger, isn't there still you?"
Wu Qing hurriedly waved his hand, " Come on, my martial arts skills are not as good as you. Last time you slapped me coldly and rested in ** for more than half a month, I know it."
Xia Mengning looked a little unconcered, and obviously thought of what happened that day.
Wu Qing knew that he had made a mistake, so he immediately changed the topic and said, "The Prime Minister did not blame the fourth aunt, and there is no direct evidence to prove that Yuyue was killed by the fourth aunt. Why do you have to take this risk? There are many ways to solve this matter."
Xia Mengning bit her lips and said, "Ning won't stop for a day without achieving her goal. She simply wanted to kill me, so I sent her forward to catch the witness on the spot to prove that these things were done by Ning."
Wu Qing was anxious, "Why are you so stupid? Yes, I know you are very good at martial arts, but the killer of the Yan clan has never failed. Although you have a big brother around you to protect you, you can't take this kind of adventure, you..."
In the middle of the speech, Wu Qing hurriedly closed her mouth. Xia Mengning looked at Wu Qing's face and asked softly, "The people of Changsun Yun, protect me by my side?"
Wu Qing nodded and nodded, "Since very early on, there are four dark guards around you, all of whom are first-class masters. The eldest brother can't accompany you, so he found someone to protect your safety, but he is afraid that you know that there is a burden in his heart, so he let those secret guards only protect you when you go out, usually far away from you. That's why you can't feel their existence.
There was a wave in Xia Mengning's heart, but her face was faint. "This time, I have no choice but to do what I said."
Wu Qing said anxiously, "Do you have to take a risk? You know what you want these people to do in case something happens, especially the eldest brother and the fourth aunt. They will die of sadness."
Xia Mengning sighed, "I can't risk my aunt and the child in her belly. Since Ning has a murder, I would rather let her turn the finger at me than let my aunt be in any danger. Don't tell Changsun Yun about this. I'll deal with it myself."
Wu Qing looked helpless. Xia Mengning pulled the quilt and said, "If you tell him, don't stay with me again in the future."
"I..." Wu Qing shouted hurriedly, but saw Xia Mengning lying on ** and turning over, as if he ignored himself. Wu Qing sighed silently and waved his hand, "Oh, I'm afraid of you. It seems that I can only sacrifice my life to protect you."
Xia Mengning listened and the corners of her mouth bent slightly. Since Wu Qing came to her side, the two never knew each other and became friends, and gradually cultivated a tacit understanding. Xia Mengning was very relieved. Wu Qing was a good woman and an open-minded person. She was very happy to make such a friend.
