The Road of the Concubine's First Wife

Chapter 123 Ruyi Has Something Wrong

In the next few days, all was well. Su Xiuniang had already agreed to Qiao Jiuxiu's plan. She used red and gold thread as the base on the embroidered clothes, embroidered large plum blossoms, and then used double-threaded auspicious cloud stitches for the buckle. Although the style is simple, it is The most important thing is that it is exquisite and generous, and it can better match Ye Duanyi's chivalry. Ye Duanyi also likes it very much. She begged Qiao Jiuxiu to hurry up and work, she was waiting to put on her wedding dress as soon as possible.

Qiao Jiuxiu was naturally busy making the wedding dress day and night, and of course Yuzhi's affairs did not stop, the three maids did their best, Jinxiu and Hongxiu reported the progress of the matter every night, Qinglian was inconvenient to come , also maintained a high density of once every two days.Qinglian said last time that Lin An invited all the guards in Qiao's mansion to drink, and after drinking, they mentioned a person's name, saying that they saw her enter Yuzhi's room the night before the incident, and it was said that , they did not deal with it before.

"Who is that person?" Hearing this, Qiao Jiuxiu immediately became interested. After so many days, this matter has finally made progress. Qiao Jiuxiu believes that this must be a very crucial clue. Maybe that person is The mastermind behind the scenes, or she was the one who pushed Yuzhi into the river.

"Miss Nine, I know that I have reached this point, and it is unreasonable to ask you to withdraw. I will not hide it anymore. How to do it depends on your intention." Qinglian sighed and shook her head slightly. Shaking his head, "That person is Ruyi. I forgot to tell you about something before. Lin An, Yuzhi and Ruyi and I are all from the same township. Before we entered Qiao's mansion, we were pretty good. playmate."

"Qinglian, why didn't you talk about such an important matter until now." Qiao Jiuxiu gave Qinglian a reproachful look, Qinglian shook her head, but said that she didn't think that this matter had something to do with Ruyi, so she didn't think of bringing this matter up. Say it, and this matter should not be the point, after all, many people know it, and after investigation, they know that they are from the same place.

"Then why did the guard say that Ruyi and Yuzhi didn't deal with each other?" Qiao Jiuxiu frowned. Logically speaking, since Yuzhi and Ruyi came from the same place and were childhood playmates, the relationship should be very close.She really couldn't figure it out, what was the reason for two people like them to become at odds, and even kill their lives?
"This." Qinglian bit her lips slightly, "Miss, I don't know if I think this way is right, I'm just expressing my own thoughts, if it's not suitable, you must not take it to heart. In the Qiao Mansion, both of them are very hardworking, and they are deeply loved by the wife and the young master. Ruyi is even more eager for the wind and the rain, and has become the wife's personal maid, so she always feels that she is much better than Yuzhi. But ever since the wife planned to let Yuzhi be the young master's fill-in house, Yuzhi has climbed onto Ruyi's head."

"Miss Nine, you may not know. For servants like us, no matter how powerful we are, we are still servants. But once you become a wife, it will be different, and you can get rid of the skin of servants. Ruyi is jealous that Yuzhi has such a This is an opportunity for me, so I hurt the killer." Qinglian said her analysis, but she sighed, so she said that the children of rich families are born with good fortune, and they, the daughters of poor families, want to Climbing up step by step, the price that has always been paid is blood.

Qiao Jiuxiu nodded, before she had time to speak, she heard Jinxiu say, "So that's the case, I have long felt that something is wrong with Ruyi."

"Huh?" Qiao Jiuxiu looked at Jinxiu with some doubts, why did she feel that something was wrong with Ruyi?One must know that Jinxiu is the least wealthy among the three maids.But she wanted to hear what Jinxiu had to say.Maybe this idea that is closest to only feeling is the most real idea.Jinxiu nodded, and then continued, "A few days ago, Hongxiu and I went to Miss Seven's place to do some business, and then I met Ruyi on the way, and she told me to leave Yuzhi's affairs alone, otherwise I would Tell the wife to know, so that we can't afford to go around. Miss, you should know that Ruyi doesn't care about things that are not hers, but why is she so concerned about Yuzhi's things this time?"

She didn't think about it before, but now she knows that this thing was done as she wished, so she didn't want anyone to investigate, for fear that someone would find out some clues and implicate herself.

Qiao Jiuxiu nodded, it was very reasonable for Jinxiu to think so.Since Ruyi already knew that they were investigating Yuzhi's affairs, she didn't tell her wife, because she didn't want to give them a chance so that her wife wouldn't punish her.It was because he was worried that if his wife knew about this matter and ordered a thorough investigation, he might be discovered.So in order to reduce the risk, she just warned Qiao Jiuxiu not to investigate any further, but she didn't tell her wife about it.

Thinking about it this way, Qiao Jiuxiu completely understood.It seems that this matter is mostly done as desired.It's just that they have no evidence now, and what is the reason why Ruyi wants to kill Yuzhi?If it was purely because of jealousy, it would be a little unconvincing.

"Miss, do you doubt that Ruyi did this?" Qinglian asked cautiously, "But Ruyi is a celebrity around the wife, and she takes care of her daily necessities. The status is probably much higher than that of Miss Jiu. If there is no evidence, you have to say that Ruyi is wrong, and be careful not to be slapped."

Qiao Jiuxiu nodded. This evidence is the most difficult to find.She could find the guards that night and prove that Ruo had met Yuzhi that night, but what did they say?And since we have already met, why do we still need to make a paper treaty by the lake?More importantly, the guards probably wouldn't be willing to come forward to prove that the matter has nothing to do with him, which is the consistent principle of living in Qiao's mansion.

Moreover, they are not completely sure now that this matter is done as desired.Although so far, she is the most suspected.But suspicion is not equal to fact.

"Qinglian is right. Our biggest problem now is that there is no evidence. It is difficult to find evidence. Yuzhi's body is gone, and the original house of Qiao's family has been sold to others. How can there be evidence?" What evidence can prove that Ruyi did it?" Qiao Jiuxiu sighed, if there is no evidence, no matter how reasonable the inference is, it will not be believed.

Jinxiu and Hongxiu also looked at each other, not knowing what to do.Qiao Jiuxiu tapped the table with her hands, frowning and thinking.They are already very close to the truth, but they encountered the biggest trouble when they got close to the truth.

evidence.

How to find enough evidence to point to Ruyi, so that she has to give in?This is indeed a big problem.

Suddenly, Qiao Jiuxiu had a flash of inspiration, and she jumped up at the case, "I remember, the day after tomorrow is Ghost Festival, and it is said that all ghosts will come out on that day, especially those who died unjustly will come out to seek revenge from the original murderer. We can find someone to pretend to be Ghost, make an appointment with Ruyi by the lake where no one is around, and then try to get out of it. If she didn't do this, she can be very calm, but if she did, she will show her feet more or less."

This is a risky move for Qiao Jiuxiu, but without any evidence, playing psychological warfare is also a good choice.

Qinglian nodded, "Miss Nine's idea is not bad. She doesn't do bad things on weekdays, and she is not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night. If there are ghosts in her heart, she might be scared out of her true form by such a fright."

Qiao Jiuxiu nodded, this is her plan.Just who do you want to play Yuzhi?This person must be very familiar with Yuzhi, and he must have a similar body shape.

"Miss Nine, let me do this pretending to be a ghost." Qinglian took the initiative to ask Ying, "I grew up with Yuzhi. Although we are a little unfamiliar after entering Qiao's mansion, we are still better than you. I know her better, and I also know Ruyi. As for the figure, she is seven or eight percent similar to Yuzhi, and when the moon is dark and the wind is high, she may not be able to see it."

Qiao Jiuxiu nodded. Qinglian was indeed the best candidate. Not only was she smart, but she also knew enough about Yuzhi and Ruyi. She just thought about asking Qinglian to do such a big favor, so she felt somewhat embarrassed, so She smiled gratefully at Qinglian, "Qinglian, I'm relieved to leave this matter to you. But you must be careful, Ruyi is also very smart and will come to trouble, if you feel that the situation is not right, please leave as soon as possible. Think of another way, don't pay you in."

Qinglian nodded, and asked Qiao Jiuxiu to take out the previous note. She wanted to imitate the handwriting on the note and write a letter to Ruyi, asking her to meet by the lake, saying that if she didn't see her, there would be something wrong with her. made public.I believe that after Ruyi reads this letter, believe it or not, she will appear by the lake.

Qiao Jiuxiu nodded, and said that Jinxiu would go to the eldest brother to ask if there were any Yuzhi's clothes or jewelry. Since she wanted to play Yuzhi, she would naturally have to work hard from beginning to end.

"Miss, if you don't have anything for me to do, I want to ask Lin An to see what habits Yuzhi has in normal times, so that she won't appear too unfamiliar when she talks to Ruyi, and what's wrong with her. Sure." Qinglian also said hastily.Qiao Jiuxiu nodded and told Qinglian to go to Lin An.For a while, she was the only one left in the room, and she sighed slightly. For some reason, she didn't feel relieved, but felt that the pressure was getting heavier and heavier.

It was as if there was a bigger conspiracy waiting for her.
