After stealing the divorce book, Princess Salted Fish fell off her horse

Chapter 831 Who Did It?
Qin Muzhao's eyes were deep, and he said coldly: "Fan Qingtian, you should have heard my wife's words!"

Liu said that Ruan Xinlian put the knife in her hand.

Fan Qingtian was still respectful, and said: "Returning to Master Hou, Madam's words do not match what I saw, Master Hou asks, and this officer can only answer what I saw!"

Qin Muzhao frowned.

Zhao Qi said angrily: "What do you mean by the surname Qin? Back then you and Qin Zhizheng, that bastard, used dirty and vicious means to use power to take away my cousin, ruin her innocence, and almost killed her. Fate, fleeing back to the village to give birth to a son, and brought the son to the capital to recognize his ancestors, and now he was killed by your wife on the spot, and you still want to accuse her of killing yourself?"

Qin Muzhao's face was livid: "Where did Ruan Xinlian come from, what kind of cousin did you come from, and where did you come from as a villain? Want to pretend to be a relative, what should I do?"

Zhao Qi's eyes were full of hatred: "Of course you think that she will have no relatives. You thought that Qin Zhizheng killed her family, but you never thought that I would escape Qin Zhizheng's murderous hands, right? Originally, I thought Those are the evil things that Qin Zhizheng did, and you are willing to recognize the son born to your cousin and your cousin, it is not too bad. Now it seems that Qin Zhizheng did those evil things back then, maybe you ordered them!"

Qin Muzhao was furious and shouted: "Come here, let me take down this villain!"

Fan Qingtian said slowly: "Master Hou, wait a minute!"

"Fan Qingtian, do you want to fight against Ben Hou?"

Fan Qingtian said: "Master Hou, you are a high-ranking and powerful person, and your status is noble. The lower officials will definitely not dare to oppose you. But if you want to take down Brother Zhao Qi, you can't do it!"

He continued slowly: "It doesn't matter if you are a lower official, but Brother Zhao Qi, the reason why he survived is because he has been traveling all over the world and has many friends. Brother Zhao Qi's brother-in-law is the eighth prince's mansion. The housekeeper. After leaving from Lord Hou, Brother Zhao Qi still wants to drink at his uncle's place!"

"You threaten me?" Qin Muzhao was furious.

Fan Qingtian shook his head with a sincere face: "Master Hou, how could I have such an intention, just tell the truth! Besides, Brother Zhao Qi did not pretend to be relatives, and even he was able to marry the younger sister of the housekeeper of the Eighth Prince's Mansion because of him. It's the cousin of your concubine, Lord Hou!"

What a mess!
Qin Muzhao thought about the possibility of silence in his heart.

A fifth-rank magistrate is not big, but he can't be removed casually. Although the steward of the eighth prince's mansion is a servant, but since the fourth prince's confinement, the eighth prince has obviously become supportive. no!

He glanced sharply at the servants in the first courtyard, and said in a deep voice: "Aunt Ruan slipped and fell and died accidentally, why don't you hurry up and collect her body?"

Fan Qingtian said: "Since Master Hou is busy, I won't bother you. I also want to join in the fun of the wine bureau of the housekeeper of the Eighth Prince's Mansion!"

Qin Muzhao said: "Since Mr. Fan is here as a guest, don't be in a hurry to leave!"

This Fan Qingtian is fine, as a mansion, he probably won't openly oppose Dingyuanhou's mansion, but this cousin of the Ruan family is in some trouble, seeing his face filled with righteous indignation, he must not be let go .

Originally thought that Fan Qingtian would object, but Fan Qingtian's reaction was beyond his expectation. Fan Qingtian said: "Since Lord Hou is staying with you, then I should just leave later."

From the threat just now to the softness now, there was no persistence for a quarter of an hour.

Qin Muzhao was scornful in his heart, but he called He Dechang: "It's a good life to entertain Mr. Fan and Brother Zhao Qi!"

He Dechang immediately understood what Qin Muzhao meant.This is to keep people first, so as not to cause unnecessary complications.

The two were brought to a courtyard, and He Dechang made someone serve tea, with a smile on his face, and he said with deep meaning: "Master Fan, Lord Hou has a noble status, you must know it!"

Fan Qingtian said: "I know, the Marquis is the eldest prince's uncle, and the imperial concubine's concubine's brother! He is still a noble Marquis, and holds a very important position in the capital!"

"Since Master Fan knows, he should know what to say and what not to say, right?"

Fan Qingtian said: "I know, Lord Hou doesn't want more people to interfere with his family's affairs!"

"Yes, that's right, it's a family matter!" He Dechang saw that he was so polite, he winked at him, and glanced at Zhao Qi.

Fan Qingtian said with a smile: "This brother Zhao Qi is a person with big heart and big ambitions, so he can talk about it!"

He Dechang was even happier. He felt that Fan Qingtian was not only witty, but also very smart. He immediately said, "Don't worry, Mr. Fan. I will definitely speak well for Mr. Fan in front of Lord Hou!"

"Then thank you, Steward He!"

Zhao Qi remained silent all the time with a sullen face.

Fan Qingtian glanced at him, then smiled at He Dechang and said, "Don't worry, Steward He, I'll take care of the servant!"

Butler He said with satisfaction: "That's very good, then Mr. Fan will drink tea first, and I have some things to deal with, so I will excuse you first!"

As a housekeeper, he is usually not idle, not to mention now that Ruan Xinlian is dead, although Hou Ye's anger is suppressed, it will always explode. He has to go to put out the fire and report Fan Qingtian's attitude by the way.

Butler He walked out of the courtyard gate, and with a wave of his hand, eight servants stood on both sides.

It was said that Fan Qingtian and Zhao Qi were asked to drink tea and rest here, but in fact they were put under house arrest by guards.

Fan Qingtian and Zhao Qi were not surprised at all. After Butler He left, he actually drank tea.

Zhao Qidao: "What should we do now? Master Fan, can we still go out?"

Fan Qingtian said leisurely: "What are you afraid of!"

Zhao Qi frowned: "It's not because we're afraid, but because we're trapped here. When the time comes, Marquis Dingyuan will find Ruan Xinlian to bury him under the pretext of being overly saddened by his son's death. , what else can you do?"

Fan Qingtian glanced at him: "Do you think it's up to you? The master arranges this just because he needs witnesses. You and I are both witnesses, but we won't be the first to sue. Someone else will first sue!"

Zhao Qi didn't understand, he came this time, and everything was originally to be ordered by Fan Qingtian, after hearing what he said, Zhao Qi was not in a hurry.

Over there, after taking Fan Qingtian and Zhao Qi away, Qin Muzhao sent someone to prepare the coffin.

The general concubine's death is naturally not qualified to run a mourning hall. Just dig a hole in a random place with a roll of straw mat and bury it.

But Ruan Xinlian is different.

First of all, she is a good concubine.

Secondly, the matter of her entering Dingyuanhou's mansion caused quite a commotion, many eyes watched, although the emperor did not deal with Dingyuanhou because of the disaster relief that year, but in fact Ruan Xinlian was the emperor who deliberately disgusted Dingyuanhou, or warned him The presence.

Marquis Ding Yuan dared not not to deal with her death, nor did he dare to make a big deal of it.

Now is the critical time to invite the crown prince, and the death of Ruan Xinlian made Qin Muzhao very angry.

He drank those women: "Don't you help Madam back?"

Several women hurriedly helped Mrs. Liu down.

Since someone came to dispose of Ruan Xinlian's body, Qin Muzhao didn't stay here for long, he also went to Liu's courtyard.

Liu Shi was still in shock. It was not that she had no life at hand, but such a bloody corpse was placed in front of her, which still made her a little scared.

At this time, she had just returned to the yard when the mother-in-law poured her a cup of hot tea to calm her shock. She held the tea bowl with both hands to calm down her turbulent heart.

At this moment, Qin Muzhao strode in.

Liu Shi didn't get up.

Qin Muzhao said directly: "You all go down!"

This is something to say to Mrs. Liu, all the women immediately retreated one after another.

The whole house was soon emptied, leaving only Qin Muzhao and Liu Shi.

Qin Muzhao was so angry that he gritted his teeth and said, "Are you so intolerable for a country girl, a foolish boy? Can they shake your position, or your son's?"

Liu said: "I told you, I didn't kill Ruan!"

She couldn't remember if she killed it, the situation was very chaotic at that time, it seemed that she couldn't control it for a while, and smashed Ruan Xinlian with a vase.But then she couldn't remember how a knife appeared in her hand, and how she stabbed that knife into Ruan Xinlian's heart.

Qin Muzhao said coldly: "What about Xiaobao? Do you dare to say that it wasn't your hand?"

"It's really not my hand!" Liu said coldly: "Xiaobao, Xiaobao, you are so affectionate!"

At this time, Qin Muzhao was still thinking about these things. When Qin Muzhao heard this, he suddenly became furious. He lowered his voice and said coldly: "Don't you think that this Marquis doesn't know that you said those things to Mu Manqi on purpose? Is she going to do something to Xiaobao? Do you think it will be fine if you borrow her hand? "

Liu sneered, "So what? Are you going to deal with me because of that bastard?"

Qin Muzhao was furious immediately: "Stupid woman, do you know what time it is? At this time, you have caused so many demon moths, do you think that you have enjoyed enough of the wealth and splendor of my Dingyuanhou Mansion, or do you think that Your son no longer needs the protection of the Marquis Mansion, so he can take charge of himself?"

Liu's heart was also burning with anger: "Are you talking to me about a demon moth now? Why didn't you think about the possible consequences of doing that when you were helping the disaster? You betrayed me, not only women, but also children, and you used that method When you appeared in front of me and let everyone see my jokes, you didn't think about the consequences? When I married you, I told you that I can't tolerate sand in my eyes. How did you tell me? "

Qin Muzhao said angrily: "Which man doesn't have three wives and four concubines? This Marquis just made a mistake that all men make! These years, I only have one concubine, how can I not live with you?"

Liu Shi sneered, and she looked at Qin Muzhao with coldness and a hint of madness in her eyes: "I can accept a man with three wives and four concubines, but I, the mistress, will have to hire one for you. It's not that you mess around outside and let this woman bring a child to hit me in the face at my grandson's hundred-day banquet!"

Qin Muzhao rubbed his temple vigorously, he was stupid.Is now the time to fight this?That's not what he was going to ask.

He gritted his teeth and said, "How did you kill Ruan Xinlian? If this matter is not handled properly, you will not be able to get rid of it!"

"Do you want me, Mrs. Hou, to pay for a concubine's life?" Liu Shi didn't remember the details, but now that she thought about it, the dagger was indeed stabbing Ruan Xinlian in her hand. When she was between her fingers, her mind was completely empty at that time.

Qin Muzhao said angrily: "She is a good concubine! Even the emperor knows about her existence! How stupid are you?"

Liu's crazy and somewhat hysterical eyes also became clear at this moment.With a sullen face, she said, "If you kill them all, so what?"

Qin Muzhao felt powerless. He never thought that his flirtatiousness outside would make him encounter such a predicament one day.

He yanked Liu's wrist violently, and the blood on Liu's hand was wiped away, but before it was wiped clean, he threw it away in disgust, and said, "Even if you want to do it, why do you do it there? Besides, you are still Did outsiders see it?"

Liu's mind cleared up, she frowned and said, "I didn't intend to kill her, she invited me there!"

She said abruptly: "She is irritating me, she did it on purpose, she wanted to die by my hands on purpose!"

Qin Muzhao thought of what Ruan Xinlian said when she met him a few days ago.At this moment, he felt a little regretful, he knew that Xiaobao's matter had something to do with Liu Shi, so he suppressed Ruan Xinlian and didn't allow her to mention it again.

She didn't expect Ruan Xinlian to be so decisive and to use this method to avenge her son!

However, he still felt something was wrong, Ruan Xinlian was just a country girl, so the arrival of Fan Qingtian and Zhao Qi was a coincidence, or was it part of Ruan Xinlian's design?
If it's a coincidence, it's too much of a coincidence.

If it's design, does Ruan Xinlian have such a brain?Even if she has such a brain, she has the ability to mobilize the magistrate of a prefecture to use for her?
Since Ruan Xinlian entered Dingyuanhou's Mansion, she has hardly been out of the house, so who is delivering the news for her?
Now that they have passed the news and set up such a game, what is their purpose?It can't be just for Xiaobao's revenge, right?Is it against him?
Or, it was mainly to target the eldest prince behind him?
After all, if there is nothing to do on his side, tomorrow's grand court meeting will be an important matter to invite the crown prince. They have arranged so much for so long, and no one else will be idle.

Is it the Eighth Prince?
By the way, it's him, isn't Zhao Qi the brother-in-law of the housekeeper in his house?
Chu Yuntai had been following Chu Yuncheng before, but he didn't expect him to be a secret.

When Qin Muzhao thought of the matter of asking for the crown prince that might affect tomorrow, he immediately felt that the situation was very serious.Thinking of this, he pushed Liu Shi away and wanted to leave.

Liu Shi was pushed to a crooked position and immediately fell to the ground.

"Mother!" A figure rushed towards the door. It turned out that it was Qin Xuran who came in a hurry when he heard about the accident, just in time to see Qin Muzhao pushing Liu Shi to the ground.

He was very angry in his heart, and said: "Father, you actually pushed mother because of a concubine?"

Qin Muzhao didn't have the heart to explain to him, and said coldly, "Take care of your mother!"

Just when Qin Muzhao was about to investigate Dingyuanhou's mansion and find out who designed all this together with Ruan Xinlian, Jiang Yi led the imperial army and entered Dingyuanhou's mansion!
The moment he saw Jiang Yi, Qin Muzhao's eyes narrowed. It was just the death of a concubine, so it wouldn't alarm the commander of the imperial army, right?

After all, Jiang Yi's dispatch represents the emperor's order, and only the emperor can mobilize Jiang Yi!
He hastily greeted him and said, "Commander Jiang, what kind of wind brought you here today?"
