The princess is beautiful and Ziye

Chapter 132 Two in One
After the painter put down the last stroke, he stood up tremblingly and looked at the man waiting aside.

"I, I finished drawing..."

Tunan turned around and walked over. He glanced at the man in the painting, frowned, then took out a bank note and handed it to the painter, and said in a deep voice:
"You didn't see anything today, understand?"

The painter looked at the 1000 taels of silver in front of him, and was covered in cold sweat, "You, what you want me to paint, isn't—"

Tu Nan talked nonsense with him lazily, directly stuffed the bank note into his hand, and said with a sullen face: "Who is drawing has nothing to do with you, get out!"

The painter swallowed his saliva, didn't dare to say more, packed up his things, and left in a scrambling manner.

Tunan looked at the man in the painting with a very ugly expression on his face. He took off the drawing paper, put it in front of the man sitting not far away, and asked, "Is it this person?"

The boy took a look and nodded quickly, "That's right! That's him! The man who hurried out of Miss Xie's room that day!"

Tu Nan narrowed his eyes, he put the paper into the charcoal stove and burned it, then turned and left the room.

Wang Rongyue, who was waiting in the front hall, saw him coming, got up and asked, "How is it? Have you confirmed the identity of that person?"

"Well. He should have rushed to Rehe by now, and I will go after him and get rid of him. Xie Tinglan and her younger sister probably also know these clues, so we can't keep her."

Wang Rongyue nodded, "Leave it to me. It's just that the Lu family seems to have been protected by them, and His Highness needs to take action on this matter."

A trace of irritability flashed across Tunan's eyes. It was the woman in front of him who refused to reveal the man's identity at the time and kept it a secret. Now that the man ran away, they were all passive. If he could, he really wanted to kill him. Solve this troublesome woman in front of you!
Tunan hummed, turned and left.

After the person left, the expression on Wang Rongyue's face sank, and she clenched her fist slightly as she watched Tu Nan's leaving back.

That dog slave thought he didn't see it, but when he looked at him, the contempt in his eyes, in fact, Wang Rongyue saw everything!
Wang Rongyue gritted her teeth resentfully. This time she failed to kill that kid from the Lu family, and even let someone escape. It was indeed not good for her, and I don't know if His Highness is angry with her.

Wang Rongyue thought to herself, she must get rid of Xie Tinglan and Xie Luoyao, at least she can take this matter and make amends with His Highness.

At this time, the spy she arranged came from the back room and asked: "Miss, now... do you want the villain to watch Miss Xie's room?"

Wang Rongyue glanced back at him, squinted her eyes, "No need. Help me, go find out if there are any desperadoes in Qingzhou. It's best...something like bandits."

Rather than just killing the two of them and arousing suspicion from others, it would be better to blame the whole thing on the bandits.

Wait until His Highness settles the matter over there, and then ask His Highness to send someone to silence the bandits. In this way, the whole matter will become an accident.

Wang Rongyue curled up the corners of her mouth in a leisurely manner, and when the time came, she would lure her away with the excuse of asking Shen to go up the mountain to pay respects to her father, and then separated from them due to some accidents on the way, so that she could avoid the bandits' killing , and Shen's group will die under the knives of those desperadoes.

The boy led the order to leave, and neither of the two noticed that a figure on the beam left here without a sound.

Shen Jiu hurried back to Xie Tinglan's yard and told her about it.

Xie Tinglan was a little surprised, she expected that Fu Rong might ask Wang Rongyue to kill her, but she didn't expect that Wang Rongyue could be so ruthless.

Xie Tinglan thought for a while and said, "Go to the palace, find the Wang family couple, and tell them they can do it."

Fortunately, she also has a hole card, which is useless.

"Let Sansi go and stop her subordinate." Xie Tinglan ordered, this time, she wanted Wang Rongyue to taste what it was like to fetch water from a bamboo basket in vain.

A few days later, the servant Wang Rongyue sent came back excitedly and told her that they had already contacted a bandit den, and that as long as they got the money, they would do it according to the arrangement.

Wang Rongyue was overjoyed, and gave the silver ticket to the young servant. After the man left, Wang Rongyue changed into a change of clothes and rushed to Shen's yard.

She just searched around but didn't see Tourmaline. She was a little dissatisfied, and asked the maid in the courtyard coldly to ask her to kneel down on the stone steps in the courtyard after Tourmaline came back.

Wang Rongyue strolled leisurely to the outside of Shen's courtyard, who knew there was a lot of noise here, as soon as she entered the door, she saw Mrs. Wang sitting opposite to Mrs. Shen!

Wang Rongyue was startled, and couldn't help blurting out, "Second Aunt! Why are you here—"

As soon as the words fell, a burly figure beside her rushed towards her, Wang Rongyue was directly crushed to the ground, and before she could react, she was slapped several times on the face.

The corner of her mouth was cracked instantly from the beating, half of her face was numb, and she couldn't speak a word.

Wang Rongyue narrowed her eyes and looked at the woman on her body, she was startled, this turned out to be the cook in her yard!
The cook gritted her teeth and burst into tears, wishing to beat Wang Rongyue to death, and sobbed, "Thank you, thank you for trusting you so much—it was you, it was you who poisoned my grandson's food! You still, You still slander the second lady, I will kill you!"

Wang Rongyue's lips turned white from fright, and the cook who finally went crazy was pulled away, and Wang Rongyue struggled to get up from the ground.

"What... what's going on?" She tremblingly said, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Xie Tinglan sat on the side, her dignified and elegant appearance was the complete opposite of her current embarrassment, Wang Rongyue looked at her with hatred in her heart.

It must have something to do with her!

With a cold face, Shen interrupted the unkind eyes she had been staring at Xie Tinglan, and said: "These people are here to sue you. I only found out today that you have been lying to us! Wang Rongyue, you How dare you! How dare you treat your uncle and aunt like this! Has your conscience been eaten by dogs!"

impossible!
Her plan can't fail!

Wang Rongyue bit her lower lip and said, "Rongyue can't understand what auntie is saying. Rongyue has never lied, and she has a clear conscience! Nanny Zhang, I treat you so well, why do you want to harm me? Auntie, is it You... are you really the same as those people outside said, you have been lying to me! "

Su Bai stood beside Wang Shi, she couldn't stand it any longer, she had held this breath for too long.

She took two steps in three steps, walked to Wang Rongyue's side, and slapped him hard.

"Shut up, you! It's already at this time, and you still dare to talk nonsense and ruin the reputation of the madam and the master! Do you think that the things you did are so seamless that no one will know at all! Oh! Madam put you All those things you did have been thoroughly investigated! You should also pay the price for those immoral things you did!"

Finally Wang could stop pretending, she hated and felt helpless, she looked at the embarrassed Wang Rongyue with eyes full of disappointment, "Yue'er, I really didn't expect that I treat you so sincerely, but you treat me like this..."

"I didn't do anything! It was you who slandered me! It was you! Did someone instruct you to do it!"

Wang Rongyue was driven mad by this situation, her eyes were scarlet, and she pointed at Xie Tinglan, "Xie Tinglan, is that you? You joined forces with my aunt because I wronged you last time, and These people came to slander me! I, Wang Rongyue, have a clear conscience, I have never done anything bad!"

Shen sternly said: "These words, when you go to court, you can explain them to the official!"

"I'm not here in my life, and your case will be tried by a fellow judge! I have already sent people to give the witness and material evidence to my fellow judge. As for you... come here, put me in jail!"

Before Wang Rongyue came, Shen had already listened to the complaints made against her by the people in the palace.

After a period of investigation, the Wangs have already found all the evidence of what Wang Rongyue did before.

Wang Rongyue has been busy with Xie Tinglan's affairs these days, and has no time to care about the affairs of the palace, so she doesn't know that her image that she thought was perfect has actually collapsed in the palace. Everyone knows her true face.

I also know how many people she secretly killed in order to tarnish the reputation of the Wangs and his wife.

Even Wang Rongyue's personal maid, Bixi, was among this group of people. She looked at Wang Rongyue in disbelief, and couldn't believe that the lady she loyally followed had treated her like that just to make her hate her second wife. It's just the wife and the second master!

Nanny Zhang used to be the cook in her yard, and she watched her grow up. She regarded Wang Rongyue as her granddaughter, but because Wang Rongyue had spoken to the Wang family, she was cruel to her grandson's meals. Poisoned inside and blamed on Wang and his wife.

Nanny Zhang hated the Wangs for so many years, and she didn't realize until now that she had hated the wrong person all along, and even treated the real murderer as her own granddaughter to protect and love her.

Nanny Zhang picked up the paperweight in hand and threw it at Wang Rongyue.

"False pickle! Why don't you die!"

Wang Rongyue narrowly escaped, and the corner of her forehead was smashed. The bright red blood stained half of her cheeks, and against her gloomy and vicious expression, she looked like a ghost.

Shen's heart trembled when she saw it, she was dragged out by shouting and scolding, and even her voice became hoarse when she sat down.

The people in the house led the others to leave, and Mrs. Shen drank several sips of tea before barely suppressing the depression in her heart.

With no one else around, Shen looked at Xie Tinglan and said bluntly: "Xing Xing, did you know about Wang Rongyue?"

Mrs. Chen wanted to ask this question as early as today when Mrs. Wang brought the group of servants to the door.

Xie Tinglan pondered for a moment, then nodded, "I went to the Wang family to worship that day, and after chatting with Madam, I already knew Wang Rongyue's lies. But at that time, my uncle and aunt trusted her very much. There is no definite evidence here, so I didn’t disclose it to my aunt.”

Although Shen understands, she is also a little unhappy, "Smelly girl, you have really grown up, you dare not discuss such things with me."

Mrs. Wang quickly said: "Mrs. Wei, don't blame Miss Xie. This is thanks to her. If it wasn't for her, we don't know what the situation would be."

Shen nodded solemnly, "Yes. If she can't reveal her true colors, I'm afraid after the land enclosure case is over, you husband and wife..."

Wei Yuanshan was greatly shocked, and only now came back to her senses. She quietly pulled the corner of Xie Tinglan's clothes, and while the two elders were chatting, she asked in a low voice:

"Cousin, you knew that Wang Rongyue was not a good person, so you were so angry when you learned that I told her about Shuyu?"

Xie Tinglan nodded, "I'm afraid she will use this kind of thing to make unnecessary articles. But fortunately, it seems that she hasn't had time to do it yet."

Wei Yuanshan was really scared at this time, "Cousin, I will never trust others so easily next time... By the way, there was also the time when her aunt did harm to others, did my cousin also guess something?" , that's why you stopped me from drinking that cup of tea?"

Mrs. Wang heard this sentence from the side, and then said: "Fortunately, Miss Xie mentioned the matter of Aunt Wang Rongyue to me when she left, so I told Miss Xie that Wang Rongyue's aunt got a willow. I heard that Aunt Wang is in prison, and when I inquired about it, I was really scared."

"Thanks to Xing Xing, otherwise Xiaoxiao would have drunk that cup of tea at that time."

Thinking of this, Shen's complaints about Xie Tinglan's failure to report disappeared. Even if Xie Tinglan concealed such a major matter, she handled it much better than herself.

……

Two days after Wang Rongyue was released from prison, her trial began.

In order to clear up the grievances of the Wangs and his wife, Shen deliberately publicized the incident. On the day of the trial, many people gathered to watch.

"Master Wang Er and his wife are really innocent. I heard that all this was arranged by the eldest lady of the Wang family, Wang Rongyue! You should be so vicious at such a young age, you really deserve to die!"

"She usually pretends to be gentle and gentle, who would have thought that she is such a person!"

"My relatives work in the palace, and they used to praise her all the time. They came back two days ago and kept throwing things. Guess what. At the beginning, he said that the second master and his wife of the Wang family deducted his monthly silver, which caused his mother to have no money to bury her. In the end, it was Wang Rongyue who advanced the money for him. Who knew that it was actually Wang Rongyue who withheld the money. In fact, Wang Er and his wife even gave him an extra five taels of silver to bury his mother. In the end, Wang Rongyue Yue only paid two taels!"

"What a shameful thing!"

Wang Rongyue was brought to the court wearing a prison uniform amidst the insults from the common people.

Her pupils were dilated, and she hadn't recovered from the huge gap.

Tongzhi slapped the gavel, and then asked people to read many of Wang Rongyue's crimes.

I wrote about two or three pages of things, big and small. If you are convicted of these crimes, you will not die, but a sentence of exile is more than enough.

"Wang Rongyue! You still haven't pleaded guilty!"

Wu Yun, who had been imprisoned for several days, was dragged to court. Ever since she saw Wang Rongyue who was imprisoned a few days ago, she had already suffered a nervous breakdown.

After going to court, she immediately told everything she knew.

"My lord, please spare me! It's all Wang Rongyue, it's all the things she asked the grass people to do! She let the grass people enter Qingzhou mansion, and let the grass people mix their blood in the tea of ​​the wives and ladies. If you want the wives, let's go together!" They are all infected with the disease of willows. These things are all done by her and a strange man, and the grass people are not voluntary adults! Please forgive me!"
