Chapter 18
Seeing this, Pei Xun said: "That letter was not sent by Mr. Huang, we fell for it."

Jiang Youzhi suddenly realized: "He pretended to be Mr. Huang and sent a letter, deliberately leading us to release the lady boss."

Pei Xun nodded.

She continued: "Then he first told Mr. Huang that Dali Temple was going to execute the proprietress, and naturally he would be found out soon, making Mr. Huang think that Yuan Qian was not doing well, and then he told Mr. Huang that not only would Mr. Huang not pay him For the reward, he will be used as a scapegoat, and Yuan Qian will work for him."

"Under the guise of Mrs. Huang, I tricked the proprietress into escaping from prison. In fact, she wanted to let her see the scene in the narrow alley, have a dispute with Mr. Huang, and then order the guards to take action secretly, so as to confirm the murder of the proprietress, and at the same time kill Mrs. Huang to silence her. .”

Pei Xun closed the book: "Not only the proprietress died on the boat, but also Yuan Qian and that guard."

Jiang Youzhi couldn't help admiring this person's brilliance. After one night, all the clues were completely broken.

Because in two days' time, it will be the annual Daoyuan Festival, Jiang Youzhi returned to the mansion, and asked Mrs. Shen to organize the gifts for the festival.

Mrs. Pei has always attached great importance to rules and traditions. On the occasion of Taoism, everyone must go to Jingyun Temple to worship. At that time, everyone must present their own gifts to show respect.

On this day, before departure, because Mrs. Shen forgot to take the incense pot for headache, Jiang Youzhi went back to get it.

But when he passed by the side door, he bumped into Xiaomei, the maid next to Pei Yuyun, walking fast and furtively, and was even more panicked when he saw her.

She looked forward and saw that it was the carriage that gave the gift.

When they arrived at Jingyun Temple, everyone stood with their hands down, waiting for noon, while Jiang Youzhi quietly followed behind Yan'er, helping her remove the gift.

She touched her gift, and she found out that it had been opened by someone. It was indeed as she expected, Xiaomei's performance just now was too obvious.

Seeing the sky, it was almost noon, so she whispered a few words to Mi'er behind her: "Mi'er, go look at the corner behind the wall and light those straws, and then throw this into the fire."

As she spoke, she handed her the small bamboo tube in her sleeve.

It was something that the senior brother invented in his spare time. She has quite a few smoke tubes.

A bell rang, and it was noon, and the pilgrimage officially began.

After a series of complicated procedures, everyone was about to go forward and offer their hands. Mrs. Shen had already finished offering. Now it was Aunt Su's turn, and Pei Yuzhi was next, but there was still no movement behind the Taoist temple.

Jiang Youzhi was a little flustered, as he was about to reach him, he couldn't help sweating from his palms.

"Miss San made a contribution."

As soon as the Taoist priest finished speaking, thick smoke billowed suddenly from behind, and everyone covered their mouths and noses in panic.

Only then did Jiang Youzhi breathe a sigh of relief, and while everyone was in a panic, she silently retreated to the souvenir place.

Deliberately spraining his feet, he threw himself on it, sweeping his arms vigorously to both sides.

The hand gift was overturned, but the palms and cheeks were also scratched, especially the two palms, the marks were bleeding out.

Seeing that in the hand gift she rolled out, there was an extra witch flow pendant, which was a cursed object. On this occasion, if someone found out that she was hiding such evil things, the consequences would be unimaginable. Pei Yuyun wanted to Put yourself to death!
She didn't understand why she had to hurt herself so viciously since she had no deep hatred for Pei Yuyun.

Regardless of the wound on his hand, Jiang Youzhi wiped the blood on his clothes indiscriminately, and stuffed Wu Liucui into Pei Yuyun's gift box without hesitation.

But this time, he was completely seen by Pei Xun who was not far away, the expression in his eyes was indistinguishable, making people puzzled.

In less than half an hour, everyone knew that this was just an oolong, so the Taoist priest presided over it and continued to worship.

Pei Yuyun walked forward slowly, saluted, and opened the gift box, but the contents inside made her eyes widen, and the gift box fell out of her hand.

Wu Liuzhuo was knocked straight to the ground, and everyone looked at her in astonishment.

Pei Yuyun was even more at a loss, unable to say anything. Seeing this, Mrs. Pei was even more furious: "Ni Nu! What's the intention behind hiding such a vicious thing!"

Because of her emotional agitation, Mrs. Pei almost fell down, and everyone hurried forward to support her.

The old lady covered her heart with one hand, with a face full of resentment: "When did you become so stubborn? How could my Pei family have a century-old reputation and have such an unworthy descendant like you!"

Pei Yuyun hurriedly walked over on her knees: "Grandma, no! It's not like this! You have to believe me, someone deliberately framed me!"

At this moment, Jiang Youzhi sneered. With the old lady's methods, even if she believed her words at this moment, she would know that Wu Liuzhuo came from her hand after checking later. She was simply asking for trouble.

Old Mrs. Pei was heartbroken: "It was I who indulged you too much in the house before, and made you so unruly."

Then Mrs. Pei looked at Aunt Su with sharp eyes: "Mr. Su, how do you teach your children!"

Aunt Su also hurriedly knelt down: "I am not good at teaching, please punish me."

Jiang Youzhi's eyes became colder and colder. Pei Yuyun must have Aunt Su's acquiescence for Pei Yuyun to do this, but Pei Yuzhi, she is very smart and knows that she must not plead with the old lady at this time, otherwise it will not only backfire, but also implicate herself .

Mrs. Pei leaned back slightly, closed her eyes, her brows were full of anger: "That's all! Let's go back home first!"

Family ugliness should not be publicized, Mrs. Pei knows this very well, but there are so many people talking about Jingyun, it is uncertain what the rumors will be like tomorrow.

Before Pei Yuyun was taken away, her scarlet eyes looked at Jiang Youzhi fiercely.

There was a smile in the corner of Jiang Youzhi's eyes, without the slightest fear, since you want to provoke wantonly, then let the horse come over, and she will retaliate.

However, Aunt Su also looked at Jiang Youzhi with a little deep meaning at this moment, it seems that this girl is not simple, and she is definitely not a good person.

After getting into the carriage, Pei Yuzhi said to Aunt Su: "Mother, Xiaomei put Wu Liupeng in that wild girl's hand gift box, yet she escaped unharmed. How annoying!"

Aunt Su said slowly: "That girl is very scheming, the third girl is definitely not her opponent, you have to be careful, and walk around with His Royal Highness on weekdays."

Pei Yuzhi said quickly: "Don't worry, my daughter understands in her heart, but she didn't plead for the third sister this time, she might have a rift with us, and the third sister made a mistake, and you will definitely be implicated."

Aunt Su smiled indifferently: "Don't worry, that stupid girl is not easy to coax? Besides, there are many vicious and stupid idiots in Pei's house, don't they better reflect your demeanor of a talented girl from a famous family?"

Because this matter involved witchcraft, it was quite serious. Pei Yuyun was fined twenty boards and had to contemplate behind closed doors for a month.

Ah Chang said to Jiang Youzhi before everyone returned to the room: "Miss Jiang, my master invites you to go."

Jiang Youzhi's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he wanted to seek justice for his sister?
