Bianjing female doctor has a melon-eating system

Chapter 19 Rashomon

Liuzhu began to tremble again. She maintained a half-crouched position and mechanically turned her head to look outside. It didn't matter if she didn't look, she suddenly noticed a tall figure floating in the dim moonlight, with long black hair hanging loose, and a rotten smell slowly filled the air.

Liuzhu screamed reflexively, covering her eyes and crying: "No, don't come to me! I didn't kill you, not me!"

"Really?" an ethereal female voice sounded.

The sound was like a thunder, and Liuzhu's hair stood on end.

"Really, I didn't kill you. I just told Mengzhu about you and Baizhu. I didn't do anything else." Liuzhu cried and kowtowed.

"What happened to Bai Zhu and me? Why did you tell Meng Zhu?"

Liuzhu trembled and replied: "I know that you actually like Baizhu, but you just hide your feelings for her. In order to escape unharmed after poisoning the concubine, I first threatened you with Baizhu's safety to join, and then I I used you to attract Bai Zhu and willingly joined the game as a scapegoat. Bai Zhu will be found out sooner or later. She went to the banquet room with the imperial concubine that night, so I don’t worry about how to get rid of her. And you are also a hidden danger, so I went with Mengzhu said that Bai Zhu would be dragged to death by you. If you die, putting all the blame on you might be able to save Bai Zhu's life. As for what means Bai Zhu used to kill you, I really don't know. ”

The person who played the role of the female ghost was Xie Huaichu's servant Jingmo. He looked at Xie Huaichu and Ji Yutang in the corner. Ji Yutang gestured for him to continue asking.

Jing Mo could only continue to pinch his throat and say: "Really?"

Liuzhu knocked his head loudly and burst into tears: "Really, really, I didn't kill you. If you have any grudges, go to Mengzhu, don't go to me."

Xie Huaichu couldn't understand, and whispered to Ji Yutang: "Why are these beads so confused? Each of their confessions was very sincere, but they all completely passed the blame and tried their best to prove that someone else was the murderer."

"This is Rashomon. They each hold their own opinions, and it's hard to tell the truth from the false. I think today's harvest is not big. You can't get anything useful from Liuzhu." Ji Yutang said, waving to the mirror. Mo ends up pretending to be a ghost.

The three of them quietly exited the cell, as if they had never been there before.

Liuzhu, who was kneeling on the ground, slowly straightened up her body. Her movements were very slow, but she no longer had the fear and shrinking she had just now, and her whole body became much calmer.

Liuzhu straightened his disheveled hair and sneered: "You are still too young to play tricks with me!"

After that, she kicked the fat rat away: "It's disgusting. I don't know when I can go out. Annoying guy, just as annoying as these rats!"

Out of anger, Liuzhu kicked the mouse several times, killing it.

"Humph, you bitch, it's not fun to die so soon." Liuzhu rubbed the blood on the wheat grass on the wheat straw in disgust, but couldn't wipe it clean after several times, which made her even more irritated.

"These few minor officials in Dali Temple are really busy. They still have time to pretend to be ghosts and scare me. It's good that it's time to get them busy."

Ji Yutang and others temporarily returned to the back room of Dali Temple.

Jing Mo couldn't wait to take off the outfit. If it weren't for Xie Huaichu's coercion and inducement, he wouldn't have worn it! Woohoo, he got goosebumps just looking at himself dressed like this!
  Xie Huaichu handed Jing Mo a hot handkerchief and instructed him to wipe off the white paint next to his ears.

Ji Yutang held a mirror beside him: "I didn't gain much today, Liu Zhu still didn't tell the truth. Just now I deliberately asked Jing Mo to ask, 'What's wrong with Bai Zhu and me?' Her answer was too complete and reasonable. I think her fear is all feigned. I think the situation here is deep, maybe there is a big secret behind them."

Jing Mo disagreed: "Ms. Ji, look at how I'm dressed, I'm even scared. A teenage girl like her shouldn't be so brave, right?"

Ji Yutang rolled her eyes at him and said, "Don't think of her too naively. She is a maid who grew up in the palace. She has seen too many dirty things. It is impossible to say that she has touched a human life on her hands!" "Jing Mo, don't think too much of others, be on guard against others." Xie Huaichu taught.

Jing Mo responded lazily and silently wiped the paint off his face.

"Ms. Ji, you haven't been able to go home because of the consequences of this game today. I think it's too late, why don't you stay in Dali Temple tonight? The back room here is specially built. Occasionally, there are colleagues because If the case is complicated and I can't get away from home, I will choose to stay here, so quilts and other things are always prepared here, so don't worry about these." Xie Huaichu suggested.

Ji Yutang looked at the sky outside through the window. There was already a bright moon hanging high and stars dotted there. It was indeed getting late.

"No, I still have to go back. My sister-in-law is at home alone, and I'm worried about her."

Xie Huaichu thought about it. Ji Yutang's sister-in-law was pregnant and it was not safe for her to be alone at home.

"Then I'll take you back." Xie Huaichu found a coat and handed it to Ji Yutang, "It's late at night and you're exposed, don't catch a cold."

Jingmo came over and chirped: "Langjun, what about me? I'm scared too."

Xie Huaichu's face darkened, and he stretched out his hand to knock his head: "Oh~ Are you a little lady too? How come I never noticed it?"

Jingmo covered his head pitifully and retreated. In fact, Xie Huai's first knock didn't hurt at all. He just felt that his young husband seemed to be showing courtesy to Ji Yutang, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

Ji Yutang on the other side was already happy. She thought the way Jing Mo pouted her mouth was particularly cute, like a round puffer fish.

"Okay, Jingmo, you go back with your husband. I can do it by myself, our home is not far from here." She said to Xie Huaichu again, "I'll put on this coat first. I'll go back and wash it clean before returning it to you."

Xie Huaichu firmly objected: "No, it's not safe for you to go back alone."

After that, he picked up a lantern and opened the door to escort Ji Yutang home.

"Okay, it's settled. It's really unsafe for a little lady like you to walk back at night." Xie Huaichu urged her.

Ji Yutang thought about it, so he stopped squirming and followed Xie Huaichu.

"Jing Mo, if you are afraid, just stay here. I will come back after seeing off Lady Ji." Xie Huaichu warned Jing Mo like a child.

"Okay, Lang Jun, you have to come back quickly. Jingmo is waiting for you here."

Ji Yutang couldn't help but laugh: "Jingmo is almost at the age of being crowned, so why is he still afraid of the dark and ghosts like a child? Also, you two have such a good relationship. You don't treat Jingmo like a master and a servant, but like a master and a servant." brother."

Xie Huaichu smiled and explained: "Jingmo is my nanny's child. We grew up together, so doesn't he count as my brother? He is timid and I am courageous. The two of us complement each other."

Speaking of this topic, Ji Yutang suddenly remembered that Xie Huaichu's life experience was still unclear, and he didn't know what he would be like when he learned about his life experience in the future. Can he still live a peaceful life of family harmony like this?
