Noble Lady Jing Zhao

Chapter 270 Leave a Witness
Ye Jingyun immediately understood who Ye Jingzhao was referring to.

She smiled sadly, "Why should I help you? What benefits can I get from helping you?"

Now she is in an awkward position.

Don't do anything hastily.

She didn't believe that Ye Jingzhao would be so kind to help her.

If Ye Jingzhao was not selfish in this matter, she would never believe it.

"Third sister, I told you that you and I have the same enemy. Third sister is not helping me. This is a win-win situation for us."

Ye Jingzhao was not annoyed either, his face was calm and calm.

Ye Jingyun sneered and didn't answer.

Ye Jingzhao was not in a hurry, but walked to the soft bench beside him and sat down.

She has plenty of time.

The person who should be anxious is Ye Jingyun.

There was silence in the room for a long time, but Ye Jingyun couldn't hold it back in the end. She took the lead and said, "Fourth sister, I just want to ask you what benefits you can bring me. Otherwise, I won't do this."

Ye Jingyun said what was in his mind.

This was her biggest concession.

"Third sister, I can help you find evidence of murdering your second aunt. So, is third sister satisfied?"

Ye Jingyun stared at Ye Jingzhao, as if he wanted to glean some news from her eyes.

But when she found that she couldn't spy anything, she gave up completely.

"That's all, give me the evidence I want. As for that old woman, you don't need to tell me. She has caused so much harm to our family, how can I let her go!"

Ye Jingzhao left satisfied with the answer.

I just don’t know what Ye Jingyun will do.

She was quite curious.

But collecting evidence is the most important thing right now.

I'm afraid I won't be able to wait until Prince Mu returns.

After Ye Jingzhao told Hongzao to go down and make arrangements, he and his mother made excuses the next day and left the city.

When they arrived at the city gate, she and Hong Zao exchanged for a newly hired carriage.

He put on his curtain hat again and left the city.

At the gate of the city, Hong Zaoxun was already well manned.

There are a total of six guards, all of whom Hongzao secretly went to Xiaoyonghou Mansion and borrowed from Miss Tongjiang.

Jiang Yilian originally wanted to follow along.

I was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so I gave up after repeated warnings.

The guards secretly sent out today are all the top men in the Hou Mansion.

The guards were riding horses, guarding the back of Ye Jingzhao's carriage.

Along the way, everyone was in high spirits.

After all, the eldest lady had told her that if Miss Ye's cousin was injured in the slightest, several people would pay with their lives.

I don't dare to slack off even a little bit.

Wait until outside Zhuangzi.

I found a remote, abandoned and dilapidated temple.

Two guards stayed behind to protect Ye Jingzhao.

The other four went to Zhuangzi to kidnap people.

Ye Jingzhao and Hong Zao both wore curtain hats.

Previously, my grandmother ordered someone to place her second aunt Jiang in the village. In addition to the two mothers-in-law, there were two boys at the door and a maid to serve Jiang.

After Jiang's death, only these five servants were left in the village. Even the maid who had left the house to serve Jiang had never returned to the house since.

Not long after, several people were bundled up.

Ye Jingzhao first interrogated the maid serving his second aunt Jiang.

The maid refused to confess at first, but Ye Jingzhao winked at the guard.

The guard immediately showed his sharp blade, and the shining blade frightened the maid so much that she screamed and fainted on the spot.

Ye Jingzhao ordered someone to pour another basin of cold water on it.

After the maid woke up, she told the truth.

Second Aunt Jiang was not infected with the plague when she came. Later, the old lady learned that the plague was spreading outside and secretly signaled to a few people so that Jiang was unknowingly infected with the plague.

The two women who followed and the boy in the porter thought that the girl was dead because of her screams.

In order to protect myself, I honestly told everything I knew.

Ye Jingzhao asked several people to write testimonials about the painting. They beat him again and threatened the lives of several family members.

Because they didn't know Ye Jingzhao's origin, they didn't dare to act rashly.

Even more afraid to report the matter back to Mrs. Ye.

"If you are not honest, then this maid will be your fate!"

Ye Jingzhao said coldly, "You all know how to tell me where the maid is after you go back. You don't need me to teach you how to tell her, right?"

The four people shook their heads in panic.

Just think that the maid is dead.

Ye Jingzhao waved his hand and motioned for several people to leave.

The steps of several people were frivolous, and they seemed to be running away.

Ye Jingzhao left with them only when no one could be seen anymore.

It was just where the maid went that put her in trouble.

This maid is a key witness, so she cannot be released to Zhuangzi.

He could only be imprisoned secretly in her hands.

It will come in handy in the future.

"Miss Cousin, why don't you ask the kids to take it back? This is the most appropriate thing."

The leading guard saw Ye Jingzhao's dilemma.

Open your mouth to give her advice.

That's really all it can do right now.

If she takes it back, I'm afraid she won't be able to hide it from her mother.

She didn't want to worry her mother.

"That's fine. I just tell Cousin Lian to be extremely careful and don't let her know where it is, so as to avoid trouble in the future."

The guard knocked the maid unconscious with one palm.

Ye Jingzhao took the handkerchief from Hong Zao's hand again and covered the maid's eyes tightly.

Only when everything is in order can you feel at ease.

The carriage went straight back to the city.

In front of the city gate, Ye Jingzhao got off the carriage.

Changed into his own carriage.

The guards of the Hou Mansion took the maid all the way to the Hou Mansion of Xiaoyong, and everyone naturally went through the back door of the Hou Mansion.

Jiang Yilian saw the person and heard about cousin Jing Zhao's arrangement from the guard.

Without saying anything more, he ordered the maid to be locked up in a secluded and deserted woodshed.

It is guarded every day.

Ye Jingzhao's carriage arrived in front of the mansion.

As soon as they got off the carriage, the porter's boy came forward respectfully and replied, "Miss Fourth, Mrs. Mu is here."

Ye Jingzhao was stunned, not expecting Madam Mu Zhao to come to the door today.

Suddenly he remembered that he had not seen Mrs. Mu Zhao for quite some time.

She quickly walked into the house.

First I went back to my yard and changed my clothes.

Just went out to meet guests.

As soon as they entered the main courtyard, they heard Mrs. Mu's wife Zhao talking and laughing with her mother.

Ye Jingzhao raised the corners of his lips unconsciously.

The steps under his feet couldn't help but speed up a bit.

"Mother, Mrs. Mu,"

As soon as he entered the house, he saw his mother and Mrs. Mu, Mrs. Zhao, sitting together and talking and laughing. The two looked very close.

Ye Jingzhao was blessed and received a gift.

"Jing Zhao, come here quickly and ask me to take a closer look. I haven't seen you for a few days."

Zhao waved to her.

Ye Jingzhao walked forward obediently.

Mrs. Zhao grabbed her and nodded with satisfaction, "Not bad, not bad. It doesn't look like there has been any change."

Mrs. Zhao turned to Mrs. Ye San and continued, "Now, I always think about this girl in your family. I really wish I could take her back as soon as possible and live with me."

Zhao's heart and eyes were full of doting on Ye Jingzhao.
