Chapter 68 Seeking Death
  Taozi was trembling like chaff as everyone looked at her, looking at Yu Qinglian with anxious eyes.
  At this juncture, others will speculate on Taozi's every move.
  Yu Qinglian was stunned by Taozi's eyes, but she didn't have a maid with her, so no one could help her. Regardless of her status as a mistress, she slapped Taozi hard.
  He said angrily: "Look what I'm doing, why do you, a cheap maid, make trouble and treat the master in the house like a monkey?"
  "No, I really don't have one." Taozi lost her composure a long time ago. In fear, she kept repeating this sentence over and over again: "I swear that I saw it with my own eyes. There really is a man!"
  "Just swearing is useful? What about men?" Yu Qinglian narrowed her eyes slightly and leaned forward slightly: "Could it be that you were dazzled in the middle of the night and thought Hui Zhi was a man?"
  Taozi shook her head firmly and said: "It's impossible. The person who came in through the window is definitely a man. Looking outside, the lady is as tall as that man's chest."
  "As for Sister Huizhi, she is a woman and not that tall. Everyone saw her outside just now. She is only a little taller than the young lady."
  After everyone thought about it, the shadow they saw on the window seemed to be almost the same as Shen Zhuoxi.
  "You mean, I will protect the young lady?" Hui Zhi immediately retorted: "When you saw it, you guessed that I was standing in front of the window, so the shadow was even higher."
  "A woman's reputation is so important. What did Miss do wrong to you to make you treat her so badly? After your sister's accident, Miss saw that you were in a bad mood, so she specifically allowed you to recuperate for a few days."
  "You can be ungrateful, but you can't be heartless and slander!"
  Speaking of Taozi's sister, Aunt Ju who came after hearing the news immediately said: "After Taohua's accident, I heard Taozi cry many times. She framed her today, shouldn't she think that Taohua was harmed by the young lady?"
  "It's very possible." Hui Zhi took over and said, "She brought it upon herself to blame for what happened to Tao Hua. She took money from a fake miracle doctor and wanted to harm the young lady. The young lady was merciful and did not reveal the truth."
  "I even sent the peach blossoms to the village outside just so that you could live and work in my house. You are a cheap maid, you don't know how to be grateful, but you dare to frame the young lady many times."
  Shen Zhuoxi also looked distressed and said: "Taohua teamed up with the fake miracle doctor to harm me. After Prince Yu's palace found out the truth, he was planning to send her to the government."
  "I wanted to serve Peach Blossom, but I became stupid again, so I spared her death. Is this also my fault?"
  Tao Zi was already in tears.
  Today, she also made her own decision and reported it to Yu Qinglian.
  If he had followed Shen Jingya's instructions and immediately shouted to attract the guards when he saw the man's shadow, and surrounded the people in the middle jar to catch the turtles, he would not have ended up like this.
  She almost fainted from crying, so she simply broke the jar and said, "What is kindness? If it weren't for Miss, Taohua wouldn't have become a lunatic. If she was sent to Zhuangzi, would she have survived?"
  "A foolish servant girl with no background, no one can take care of her when she is gone, it is no different than dead!"
  "Okay, do you admit that you were responsible for everything?" Hui Zhi immediately grasped the key point and angrily yelled: "You are so vicious-hearted, Miss, I am not kind to you!"
  Taozi wiped her tears, took a deep breath, and said, "I did see the man today. If you don't see anyone now, the lady must have noticed it a long time ago."
  "Move the man and use sister Hui Zhi, Li Dai Tao Jiang, because the slave has no ability. Not only did he fail to catch the man, but he even got in on the man himself. I know that no one will believe me no matter what I say now."
  "My slave has committed suicide to prove that what he said is true!"
  After saying that, Taozi looked painful, blood spilled from the corner of her mouth, and fell to the ground.
  His eyes were wide open and he had not yet breathed his last.
  Yu Qinglian was the closest and looked directly into those eyes. She was stunned for a moment and then quickly ordered: "Quick, drag him out and ask the doctor."
  No one thought that Taozi, who had always been cowardly, would use such an extreme method.
  For a moment, no one spoke, especially Shen Heshan, who looked at Shen Zhuoxi with scrutiny and asked directly: "Are you serious that you don't have sex with men?"
  "The Grand Master thought that Tao Zi died to express his ambition. Is that true?" Shen Zhuoxi sneered, "I am an upright person and have never had an affair with any man."
  "My slave can testify." Hui Zhi said angrily: "Tao Zi must have thought that there was no hope of trapping her, and that she would be beaten and sold out, with no hope of future life, so she used this method to continue trapping the young lady."
  No man was caught, and there was no substantive evidence. Everything was just words like a peach with a red mouth and white teeth.
  Shen Heshan took a deep breath and warned: "There is no best. You are the lady of Taishifu. Your words and deeds are not only about you, but also about the reputation of Taishifu. The previous incident with the prince was embarrassing enough. There will be more in the future." Be careful."
  Everyone dispersed with their own thoughts. Shen Zhuoxi stared at the empty door, feeling increasingly sad for the original owner.
  Even if Taozi goes to report a strange man, does it have to be an adulterer or a villain who threatens her personal comfort?
  There is an empty courtyard separated from the outer courtyard wall where she lives, and the guards who patrol the courtyard rarely come here. If she really breaks into the Taishi Mansion, she will be in the most danger.
  No one thought about it, some were just people who came to watch the fun.
  "Miss, everyone is gone, and Taozi's serious problem has been solved. You can sleep peacefully." Seeing that she was still dazed, Hui Zhi said, "Besides, you and Mr. Yumu are innocent, there is nothing else."
  "Taozi's incident is her own fault."
  Shen Zhuoxi has always had a clear sense of grudges. Even if she confronts Taozi today, it is Taozi who has different intentions.
  She retracted her thoughts and said, "Go to sleep, I'm still busy tomorrow."
  Everyone else left Qingfeng Tower with doubts. Yu Qinglian and Shen Heshan walked in the front, and Shen Heshan's frown never relaxed.
  Yu Qinglian was the best at observing words and expressions, and she looked sad and remorseful, saying: "It's my fault today. I was deceived by that cheap maid, and came to Qingfeng Tower without checking clearly."
  When Shen Heshan heard her apology, he did not comfort her as usual. Instead, he stopped and stared at her, saying coldly: "I remember you before, dignified and decent, never swearing at others."
  "You talk like a cheap maid, are you afraid that others won't know that you are from a concubine's house? You actually beat a maid yourself in public. You have no manners of a lady, how can you bear the title of eldest lady?"
  Yu Qinglian was stunned for a moment, then quickly admitted her mistake and said: "I was also impatient, and I won't do it anymore."
  "Humph." Shen Heshan sneered and said, "You just said this a few days ago. It's meaningless to say it now."
  Yu Qinglian was so embarrassed that she didn't dare to speak. Shen Heshan glanced at her angrily, continued walking forward, and said, "If you let me hear you again, don't blame me for trying to hurt your face."
  "Tell Zhuo Xi about the marriage, hurry up, she will cause trouble in the house."
  Shen Heshan didn't care, and Yu Qinglian finally breathed a sigh of relief and kept saying nice things.
  The old lady followed closely behind, staring at the backs of the two of them, and got a general idea, and asked Aunt Yuan on the side: "What do you think about this matter?"
