"No!" The old lady stopped immediately.

The daughter of the Yuan family was poisoned at the birthday banquet last time, and the Duke's Mansion has become a joke for the nobles in the entire capital.If it is reported to Dali Temple again, although Jiang Wu has been dealt with, the dignity of the Shen family will also plummet, and it will definitely become the talk of the people in the city after dinner.

The eldest girl walked hurriedly and leaned into the old lady's ear, "Both the Duke and the eldest son are kept in the palace, it seems that it is because of the case in Lianghuai."

At this time, the gate of the palace has been locked, and I am afraid that the two of them will not be able to leave the palace until tomorrow.The old lady had a severe headache, she looked at the head of the Wang family who was waking up and asked: "What do you think the head of the Wang family should do? Why don't we collect the corpse first, and the dead will be buried in the ground for peace, and we will deal with Jiang Wu later."

In the middle of the night, the cicadas kept singing, which disturbed everyone.

There are a lot of ice cubes around the corpses placed outside the Zhengshan Hall. The price of ice is more expensive than gold at this time. If it weren't for the Duke's Mansion, it would not be able to keep Wang Chengjun's corpse.

The patriarch's eyeballs remained motionless, fixed on the floor in front of him, "No, this matter cannot be settled so easily. Once Cheng Jun's body is buried, it will be impossible to know who did it. Her body is living evidence!"

It was very quiet in the hall, and no one made a sound.The footsteps of the waiters in the hall were as light as ghosts, and few people took a sip even after the tea had cooled down, watching the color of the water change from white to brown.

The night became more and more quiet, except for the regular sound of boards coming from outside.

Mammy took a finger-thick ring ruler and hit it hard, making a loud muffled sound on the flesh.On the first board, Jiang Wu was sweating profusely from the pain, and Hong Ying was anxious to take the blame on her behalf, but was stopped by Jiang Wu with a sharp eye.

If he wanted to find out who the little Wang family was harmed by, the only way to clear up his grievances was to suffer the [-] boards first.

Jiang Wu was silent, she gritted her silver teeth and suffered [-] boards before being brought back into the hall. She straightened her chest and looked at the old lady bowing and bowing in a dignified manner.

"Old lady, there are many doubts about this matter. Although the concubine violated the rules and met Aunt Wang, she did not do anything to harm anyone. It was only accidental that she appeared there. I have already been punished for my crime, if the old lady wants my concubine to pay for Xiao Wang's life, I am afraid that the son will agree to it, and I will resign."

Jiang Wu got up from the ground, turned and left with a stubborn little face.

The Wang family always pointed at Jiang Wu and was so angry, "You you you!"

Jiang Wu's pace of turning around and leaving was stagnant, not because of the obstruction of the elders of the Wang family, but because of the guards kneeling beside the little Wang family.

The guard yelled outside: "Aunt Jiang, you can't go to Dali Temple to invite the assistant, otherwise it will be detrimental to the entire Duke's mansion. You can't be sorry for the son!"

Jiang Wu paused, and a cold light shot out from the housekeeper's eyes, "Old lady, Aunt Jiang sent someone to Dali Temple to invite you to work, and we detained four people."

The graceful and luxurious old man exuded terrifying coercion all over his body, and the wrinkles on his frosty face became more obvious under the light of the revolving lantern.The old lady looked like an evil ghost crawling out of hell, her cold eyes made Jiang Wu get goosebumps on her arms.

"Well done, reward." The old man seemed to be talking about something ordinary, and the word "reward" was full of irony at the moment, which made Jiang Wu laugh.

"Dare to ask the old lady, how did you know how Aunt Wang died if you don't ask me to do it?"

"When Aunt Wang died, you happened to be there. Who else would there be besides you? Everyone in the Wang family has seen Wang's death, and you kept saying it was not you. Could it be that Wang committed suicide in such a tragic situation?!" The anger in my heart was soaring, since Jiang Wu married into the Duke's mansion, there has been a lot of turmoil.

If this woman is not removed for a day, I am afraid that the house will not be peaceful for a day.

"This matter, the concubine can't admit it. Killing is a serious crime. The old lady believes that it was the concubine's murder. The concubine and Aunt Wang have no grievances or enmity. Why should this be the case? Could it be that the old lady thinks that the fetus in Aunt Wang's womb belongs to the eldest son?" ? If Your Highness knows that the elders will criticize and slander him to this state, I am afraid that everyone in this hall will not feel better." Jiang Wu folded her arms and looked indifferent.

At this moment, Shen Fu is her best backer, and she has to use it.

If there is no supreme power, one must hide one's strength and bide one's time.

The seemingly delicate woman had a gentle smile, and her eyes revealed firmness and strength.

"The old lady is His Highness's elder, and His Highness is powerful in the court. The concubine believes that the peace of the back house should not affect His highness's career. The Shen family is all prosperous, and every one is damaged. The suspicion of killing Aunt Wang is pushed to the concubine or His highness." Aren't they all harmful to the Duke's Mansion? The old lady is naturally looking forward to His Highness's well-being like the concubine. The concubine will wait for His Highness to come back and meet the old lady together, and the concubine will resign." Jiang Wu's words were airtight, The three-inch tongue made the old lady unable to intervene.

Jiang Wu winked at Nanny Xu, and strode out of the threshold.

She whispered, "Mommy, the Wang family is really strange."

In order to get Shen Fu, the fast-paced son-in-law, regardless of his daughter's happiness, he sent two daughters from the family one after another, and now he keeps saying that he is going to find the murderer for the Wang family.

Only Jiang Wu and Hongying could hear Xu Nanny's voice.

"There are many daughters in the generation of the Wang family, and two more daughters have grown up in recent years. The maid guessed that maybe they wanted to gain the greatest benefit, so that they could be sent to His Highness's room afterwards."

The two daughters died shortly after a short break and did not end well. The Shen family must make up for it.

Jiang Wu's heart is as cold as the winter moon and ice and snow, what kind of magic cave is this Wang family?
"stop!"

Regardless of the rules, a clan elder stepped forward and grabbed Jiang Wu's clothes, saying that it was too late and now, Hong Ying blocked it and guarded Jiang Wu behind her.

"What is the clan elder doing? He doesn't even care about the defense of men and women!"

The incident happened suddenly, and Jiang Wu's face turned pale.

It's absurd to gossip in front of so many people.

"You killed my family, Chengjun, and you still want to leave safely, that's impossible!" The Wang family all besieged.

"It was her who moved her hand!" There was a sharp voice that almost pierced people's eardrums, Shen Kun's mother, the eldest lady, smiled maliciously, and brought someone with her.

The girl is thirteen, fourteen, five years old, she has just smoked, and she looks thin and boneless.

Jiang Wu looked familiar, squinted her eyes and slowly remembered someone, her tone was betrayed with anger, "Your name is Hongrui, I remember it is the girl serving in my yard."

After the poisoning incident, all the servants in Changmo Hall were replaced by girls with clean backgrounds.

Hongrui cried in bewilderment, throwing herself to the ground, "Old, old madam, Aunt Jiang, I really don't know what to do, I found this thing."

Hongrui took out the handkerchief and opened it, and inside was the wrapped wet locust tree branch.The eldest lady grabbed it and brought it in front of the old lady to claim credit: "Mother, look carefully at this locust tree branch."

Small sections of locust tree branches were engraved with words, which happened to be the horoscope of birthday when put together.
