Marrying Mrs. Hou and making a living by relying on her circle of food friends

Chapter 6 Interrogation
Upon hearing this, Su Qilin immediately raised his hand to signal the government officials to stop, and asked with a frosty face: "Did the county magistrate instigate it? You have to think clearly. Your willingness to confess can be regarded as a loss of merit, but slandering the county magistrate is an extra crime." !”

A large amount of cold sweat dripped down the prisoner's face, which was as pale as paper. His eyes were evasive and he did not dare to look at Su Qilin, who was still cold-faced. "Yes, I can guarantee it..."

Gu Yunyue was still cowering aside, but seeing the prisoner's eyes dodge, as if he still didn't want to tell the truth, he felt angry in his heart. "You just think of us as fools, but you also want to think of the Marquis as a fool."

As she spoke, Gu Yunyue quietly glanced at Su Qilin, who was not far away from her. Seeing that there was no anger on his face for interfering with her, she boldly said: "If you just want the chef you recommended to win, the county magistrate Your Excellency can use other methods, why bother to take such a risky move and follow the facts. In my opinion, not only did you not invite him, but you are indeed suspected of framing the county magistrate."

The candlelight in the torture room was dim, and various torture instruments shone with a cold light.

Su Qilin snorted coldly. It seemed that the so-called Madam of the Hou Mansion was not a woman who only knew how to make jokes, and she also had some changes in her feelings towards Gu Yunyue.

Gu Yunyue's words seemed to have shaken the prisoner who had been tortured with the iron brand.Seeing the prisoner hanging his head in silence, he seemed to be struggling whether to confess or not.

"Now you are imprisoned in my prison. You said you would vouch for it. Oh, I'm afraid the only thing that can vouch for you is your life, right?" Su Qilin was so coercive and tempting, and his eyes signaled the yamen servant to step forward for execution.

But this time the prisoner just screamed and fainted.

As the smell of burnt flesh dissipated in the air, Gu Yunyue couldn't help but cover her mouth and nose.Tsk, tsk, tsk, it hurt just looking at the wound, but the person who wanted to frame her ended up like this. Gu Yunyue felt that this person deserved it.

Su Qilin noticed Gu Yunyue's frowning movements and ordered the government officials to take the man down and imprison him.He turned to Gu Yunyue and said, "The servant has packed the carriage at the Yamen. You go first."

Although Gu Yunyue had doubts about sending her away, she also knew that this was not the time for her to talk or ask questions, so she immediately agreed, raised her sleeves and wiped away the non-existent tears, "Master Hou, you can Please help me interrogate and interrogate him, this person is committing a serious crime in murdering Mrs. Hou."

After Gu Yunyue finished speaking, she bowed slightly, covered her face and walked out of the execution room.

The carriage was indeed hitched, and the maid helped Gu Yunyue get on the carriage, "Mrs. Hou, here are melon seeds for tea. If you need anything else, just call me."

How considerate, Gu Yunyue smiled and agreed.

The tea leaves are fragrant and the tea water is clear.Gu Yunyue poured herself a cup of tea and sipped it slowly, reviewing what happened today in her mind.

Who has she offended?Or is it that the original owner offended someone?But it's not surprising. Although the original owner failed to recognize his kin that day, it's not surprising that as soon as the incident broke out, someone with ulterior motives would rather kill him by mistake than let him go.But who is driving this is still unknown.

Just as he was lost in thought, a greeting came from outside the carriage, which pulled Gu Yunyue back from his wandering mind.

Seeing Su Qilin open the curtain and come in, Gu Yunyue hurriedly poured a cup of tea, "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Marquis, want some tea?"

Su Qilin glanced at her and didn't answer.

Gu Yunyue spat in her heart, this person was afraid that she might poison her.Seeing that Su Qilin had no intention of taking the tea, she poured the tea back into the teapot and sat quietly with her own teacup.

Whether you like to drink or not, you will fall down if you don’t.Gu Yunyue looked at Su Qilin's expression across the teacup and thought about what novel dishes she should use to stand out in future cooking competitions.Su Qilin looked at Gu Yunyue's boring behavior, shook his head and said nothing.

Today's old prince's poisoning will never be as simple as the prisoner confessed.It is said that the county magistrate ordered it, but this Zhizhiguan dared to do something stupid to murder the emperor's relatives, let alone in full view of the public?The man who deceived him into thinking he was a fool would not be a pity even if he was put to death.

Su Qilin looked at Gu Yunyue with sharp eyes. This woman was not as simple as she appeared.He recalled that the QQ system interface introduced Gu Yunyue as the emperor's daughter left behind, and he couldn't help but frown.

Su Qilin still didn't know where Lu Yunlan found this woman, but someone who looked after Yun Yue, a ghost like her, would not recruit her truthfully even if she thought about it.

"There is one thing that I am very strange about. Mrs. Hou has been married to the Hou Mansion for some time, so why haven't I seen my father-in-law and mother-in-law come to visit?" Su Qilin asked as if he was unintentional.

When Gu Yunyue heard this, she choked on the tea and coughed all over her throat.Father-in-law and mother-in-law?Coming to visit?Gu Yunyue thought with some disgust, this prince really doesn't know the heights of the world, and he wants his father-in-law and mother-in-law to come to visit. But you know that your father-in-law and mother-in-law are the emperor's noble concubines!

Thinking so, Gu Yunyue turned around and smiled, "How do you say this, Master Hou?"

Seeing her evasive words, Su Qilin sneered: "I don't care where Lu Yunlan found you, and I don't care what method Lu Yunlan used to get you to agree to commit this crime of deceiving the emperor for her. You just do this." Be prepared to become a world-famous chef before I find out your true identity. I beg the Emperor and the Thirteenth Prince to keep you safe."

These words were spoken harshly, and they really scared Gu Yunyue.

Fortunately, by the time this was said, the carriage had already entered the Marquis Mansion. Su Qilin didn't press Gu Yunyue anymore, and simply said that he had arrangements for the evening and sent him back to his residence without her having to deliver meals.

Gu Yunyue was naturally overjoyed. She was exhausted physically and mentally after a day outside, and she didn't have the energy to show off her cooking skills at this time. After agreeing, she went to Chengyuan where she lived.

Here Guo'er spent a day in Chengyuan, and she felt relieved when she saw Gu Yunyue came back intact.

After a whole day of careful consideration, Guoer now figured it out.As the dowry maid of the current Madam Hou, she and Gu Yunyue are grasshoppers in the same boat. If something happens to Gu Yunyue, she herself will not escape death.

Gu Yunyue sat down on the table in the hall. Just as he was about to pour himself a glass of water, the teapot was snatched away by Guo'er beside him. "Mrs. Hou, let me pour it for you."

This startled Gu Yunyue, and she waved her hands quickly, "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I'm not your young lady, I can't bear your courtesy."

Guo'er forced the tea cup into Gu Yunyue's hand and said with a smile, "No, no, no, I am the madam's maid, and it is I who should apologize to the madam."

Gu Yunyue looked at Guo'er, then at the tea in her hand, laughed dryly, and said nothing.

Are you still worried that you might not be able to poison yourself? Guo'er also saw the clues and changed the topic with a smile, "I don't know where Madam went today. She seems to be a bit tired. Just tell me what Madam likes to eat and I will just tell the kitchen to cook it." "

At this time, Gu Yunyue's doubts were still lingering. There was no conclusion yet on the old prince's poisoning. He just made some fooling around and asked Guo'er to make some light food.
