Mugui

Chapter 398 Why are there still witnesses?

Yang Mu looked at everyone and asked: "Didn't anyone realize that the things written on the pawn tickets that were searched from the housekeeper's house were a lot of money, but none of them were important valuables? Where did the most valuable items from the late princess’s dowry go?”

Ma explained in a deep voice: "The Cao family was in charge of Gongzhong at that time. It was the warehouse she took stock of and the losses she calculated. She said at the time that there were not many things lost and they were not very valuable. She also told the shopkeeper of Jinyuan Pawn Shop After it was cured, I bought it back at the original price.”

Yang Mu nodded and said: "It seems that the princess has been hiding everything in the palace these years. She used cheap things to hide her from others, but the valuables were quietly transferred to the coffin shop. I wonder how much the princess has embezzled during these years?"

Ms. Cao closed her eyes slightly at this moment. There was no room for maneuver on this matter.

Ever since Yin Lingming said that he was the owner behind Jinyuan Pawn Shop, he had become passive.

The account books of Jinyuan Pawnshop are kept here. The money and items she embezzled over the years are written clearly and irrefutably.

Lin Xiao took the booklet from Shopkeeper Chen in Yang Mu's hand, looked at it one by one, took a deep breath, and asked slowly: "Although most of the items on my mother's dowry list are in my hands, but those that are not The princess may tell where the things written in the dowry list go?"

Changsun's mother came from the Bai family, the richest family. In addition to the dowry, she also secretly provided a lot of subsidies. This matter must be known to everyone in the palace.

Mrs. Cao licked her lips and said slowly: "How do I know about your mother's dowry?"

She looked at the three people kneeling on the ground and said: "Ms. Yang, I admit that you are very clever and have bribed so many people to slander me. But I haven't done it before. As the wife of the Lin family, as long as I If you don’t admit it, you can’t convict me!”

This is the amulet owned by the wife of the head of the clan. As long as it is not a capital crime, and she does not plead guilty, almost no one can convict her.

Except——the patriarch of the Lin family, Lin Mao.

Yang Mu looked at Mr. Cao amusedly and said, "Princess, today's drama has just begun. Let's talk slowly."

Cao's heart suddenly suddenly started, has it just begun?
Is it possible that Yang Mu is still holding back some tricks?
At this time, Cao didn't know that Yang would kill her and her family if she didn't take action.

Yang Mu has always had this character, such as the old Yang family, or the Miao family. She has always been steady and ruthless in her actions.

Yang Mu glanced at Mr. Cao teasingly, walked a few steps, opened the account book of Jinyuan Pawnshop, pointed to the pages above and said: "These things are also the dowry of the late princess. They were sent in the first month of the year. They haven't had time to send them yet." Coffin shop. Can the princess explain how these things appeared in Jinyuan Pawn Shop?"

She looked at Mrs. Cao calmly and said, "In the first month of the year, I haven't married into the Lin family yet!"

Mrs. Cao glared at Yang Mu and said, "Prince Ding's palace is so big, how can you be sure that I sent it to you?"

She also wanted to quibble and delay for a while.

But Ma didn't give her a chance and said in a deep voice: "It has your signature and seal on it! Do you still want to quibble?"

Mrs. Cao hated Mrs. Ma in her heart and wished that the old woman died immediately, but when she saw Lin Mao's unkind eyes, she still gritted her teeth and said, "Even if I did this, it is not worthy of Yang's crime of murdering her superior." !”

Now that it's been discovered, at worst, if you return the things, you'll end up losing your reward or being banned.

Yang Mu must bear the charge of murder today!

Ms. Cao looked at Yang Mu and said, "You don't have to trap the beast and fight, and you don't have to divert your attention. The matter of poisoning our ancestors is iron-clad. No matter how you mess around, it's useless!"

Her words were a disguised admission that she had stolen the late princess's relics.

Lin Shan's hand in his sleeve tightened, and the concubine was confused. She denied it in advance and killed Yang Mu, so she was able to fool him.

Lin Qiuchen stopped covering her face and looked at the scenes in the hall in disbelief. What's going on?Yang Mu hadn't been convicted of anything, so why did his mother plead guilty first?

Yang Mu knew that Cao had no excuse and could only plead guilty. Knowing that she was afraid that she would bring up other things, she couldn't help but laugh to herself. Could it be that she thought she only had these few witnesses and physical evidence?

She nodded with satisfaction and said: "As long as the princess admits that she enriched her own pockets. As for the charge of 'poisoning the relatives', who will be responsible for it, I want to see the witness, and everyone will know." Ms. Cao frowned, why? Any witnesses?

Daishan went out again and brought back two people. One was walking and the other was carried in.

Seeing the two of them, Cao almost screamed.

Nanny Qin, however, did not have such good concentration. When she saw the visitor, she exclaimed: "Zhou Rui's wife! Zhou Rui!"

Zhou Rui was obviously seriously injured, his face was pale, and he was carried in.

As for Zhou Rui's wife, she looked at Mrs. Cao with hateful eyes ever since she entered the house.

Mrs. Cao turned a blind eye to Zhou Rui's wife's gaze. What could a servant do to her, a princess?
Yang Mu said with a smile on his lips: "Princess, since these two people are not dead, my crime of 'murder and silence' is gone, right?"

Yan's mother also broke into a cold sweat when she saw the two of them.

The moment Mrs. Guo saw Zhou Rui, she immediately softened and lay on the ground.

Lin Shan immediately said: "But it doesn't prove that the imperial concubine did not poison her superior. After all, whether Zhou Rui's wife was silenced or not was because she sent the blood swallow to Fuhaiyuan."

Yang Mu looked at him funny and said, "Sanlang spoke a little prematurely."

Yang Mu took the letter, showed it to Zhou Rui's wife, and asked, "Look, is this written by you?"

Zhou Rui's wife didn't even look at it. She kowtowed and said, "I am illiterate."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.

Yang Mu asked: "How to prove that you are illiterate?"

Zhou Rui's wife said: "My neighbors can all prove that every year I post couplets, my neighbors need to show the pros and cons!"

Yang Mu nodded and said, "Your Majesty, you can send someone to ask."

Lin Mao nodded slightly to Butler Feng, and Butler Feng patted the boy to ask.

Yang Mu walked up to Nanny Qin and Mama Yan and said, "Tell me your testimony just now again."

There were layers of cold sweat on their heads, and the clothes on their bodies were soaked through, so they finished speaking tremblingly.

Zhou Rui's wife said loudly: "Nonsense! It's obviously Nanny Qin who told me that Yin Ling was sold to the village as a child bride!"

Then, Zhou Rui's wife told her what had just happened, and after speaking, she gave Nanny Qin a hard look.

"When I talked to you today, I had seen Yin Ling a long time ago. I wouldn't believe you at all! And when I carried the blood swallow, I repeatedly reminded my ancestors that there might be something wrong with the blood swallow! Doctor Ge I was right there during the drug test!"

Lin Shan asked in a deep voice: "How did you know there was something wrong with this blood swallow?"

Zhou Rui's wife said: "My husband was almost killed last night. The imperial concubine and Bao Guanshi speculated that the princess would poison the ancestors today, and I was just listening. I saw that Grandma Qin was going to send blood swallows to Fuhaiyuan today. , is there anything else you don’t understand?”

Everyone present looked at each other. The Crown Princess actually knew last night that the Princess was going to poison the ancestor? ! (End of chapter)
