The rebirth of the snake and scorpion princess

Chapter 44 Investigating the Murderer
"Master, look..." Zi Bai's gaze followed the weak man who had gradually disappeared, and he accused his master: "I told you to save Miss Liuli, but if you don't, it's fine now! Hmph"

Nangong Taki, who had been lazily lying on the tree trunk, had already stood up straight and leaned against the tree trunk. His deep eyes also followed the departing person, and a trace of unknown meaning flashed in the bottom of his eyes.

"If you want to get something in return, giving is inevitable. More or less, that's all." Zibai looked at his eldest son and uttered a faint sentence, but it made Zibai confused.

"This is what I'm looking for..." Nangong Taki lightly waved the folding fan, fanned it with one hand, jumped up, and disappeared.

Only Zibai was left with a crescent-colored white robe.

"Hurry up, go back and get Tianxiang Wan, otherwise your master will be a bachelor for the rest of his life and cannot avoid being called an old virgin!" In the secluded forest, Nangong Taki's urgent words that seemed quite far away came out.

Playing a bachelor for a lifetime...?Zibai rubbed his head, pondered over this sentence, and finally explained it after a long while.

"Hmm! Let me just say, why do you follow him all day long if you don't like him? You are willing to take out the only Tianxiang Pill in the world! You son of a bitch!" Zibai hummed.

Raising his head, looking at the empty surroundings, and looking at himself a few feet above the ground, Zibai shouted in panic: "Master, wait for me, I don't know martial arts, I can't climb trees, I can't get down!" what…"

……

In the Chrysanthemum Fragrance Hall of the old lady, there was a group of gorgeous women waiting at the door, as well as Mo Wanjing and Mo Wanrou.

All of them were pale with lingering fear, sobbing or choking, or wiping tears with handkerchiefs.

"Give me peace!" The old lady was helped out by Yingchun, and shouted coldly, "Put away your fake tears, you don't need to act this way in front of the old man!"

Hearing this, the women who couldn't help but feel that they couldn't hold back their face, they lowered their heads one by one, with a bit of embarrassment on their faces.

Mrs. Mo, wearing a navy blue coat, walked slowly towards the crowd step by step. The hem of her navy blue dress meandered across the gravel ground, carrying the nobility and majesty of a person who had been in power for a long time, making the crowd suddenly quiet.

"I won't say the identity of Li girl, but you all know it very well." The old lady lowered her voice slowly to everyone's ears.

Everyone nodded like chickens pecking at rice.

"Then do you know what I hate the most in my life?" The old lady walked back and forth in front of everyone step by step.

Everyone still nodded, "The old lady hates people who are inconsistent with their appearance and make small moves behind their backs."

"Okay! Very good! It seems that everyone understands!" The old lady squinted her eyes and nodded slightly.

Everyone looked at each other, not understanding what this meant, but they heard the old lady say solemnly, "Just now, who handed the golden hairpin to Mrs. Song Er? Stand up consciously! The old man will see it for the sake of voluntary admission. Light punishment."

The crowd suddenly fell into silence. They all pursed their lips, twisted their handkerchiefs, and said nothing.

"Don't tell me? The old man has to investigate slowly by himself, but if he is caught by the old man and finds out who this person is, then don't blame the old man for not caring about affection..." The old lady Those gentle but majestic words slowly hit everyone's hearts.

The old lady turned around, locked on the crowd with a pair of sharp old eyes, and focused on everyone's expressions.

"Really don't come forward and admit it? The Second Mrs. Song was clearly suppressed, and I ordered the Second Mrs. Song to be confined to the ancestral hall. I detained all her jewelry. How could the Second Mrs. Song have been arrested in a blink of an eye?" With a hairpin, can you still break free?"

"Dang..." From the crowd, there was a crisp sound of metal hitting the ground.

The old lady looked over and saw a woman in a panic trying to bend over to pick up a pair of gold earrings, and the gold earrings were obviously a pair of hairpins in Mrs. Song's hand.

"Come out!" Her eyes widened angrily, and her words were harsh.

"Old...old lady..." A servant girl picked up the gold earring and stumbled out from the crowd.

There was a quick breath from the crowd, I really didn't expect a maid to be the murderer!
The old madam narrowed her old eyes slightly, her eyes locked tightly on the servant girl on the ground like a torch, and asked coldly: "Which madam's servant girl are you?"

The servant girl's face was pale, and she looked at the crowd in panic, her lips were biting white, and she didn't say a word for a long time.

"Say!" The old lady repeated impatiently: "Whose servant girl are you?"

"Servant..." The servant girl trembled in fright from the cold gaze, tightly clutching the gold earrings with both hands, and slammed her head on the ground, "The servant girl is...the maidservant next to Miss Wanrou."

The crowd fell into silence again, and everyone looked around to find the weak beauty, but the maid whispered again: "Miss is not here... She just said that she was not feeling well and went back to rest..."

The old lady waved her hand at Yingchun who was behind her, and Yingchun knowingly took out the golden hairpin that Mrs. Song's stabbed someone from the house, and handed it over.

The old lady took the gold hairpin that was still stained with blood, and stretched out her hand to take the gold earrings from the servant girl, and put them in the palm of her hand for comparison. Both the earrings and the hairpin were inlaid with a pink opal and a clover. This skillful craftsman This opal is very valuable at first glance, obviously not something ordinary people can get their hands on, but it can be hinted at the first glance - this is obviously a pair!

"Although I'm getting old, my eyes are still young!" The old lady spread out the hairpin and earrings in her palm for everyone to see, "The earrings and hairpins are a pair, right?!"

"Old madam, this is indeed a couple!" The eldest madam, Mei Shi, answered after spending all her time.

The people behind also said: "What the old lady said is true!"

The old lady nodded, but the body of the servant girl on the ground trembled even more violently, and there was no trace of blood on her face!
"Tell me, why did you frame Laoshen and Li girl?" The old lady locked the maid on the ground tightly. Don't dare to trample to death, and seldom go out, you gave me a reason, why did you give the hairpin to Mrs. Song?"

The servant girl closed her eyes with tears in her eyes, and opened them suddenly, it was all gray, she pursed her lips, just about to speak...

"Old madam!" A sharp voice suddenly sounded from the crowd, and Madam Bingyan hurriedly walked out of the crowd and slammed her body at the old madam, "Old madam, my soft girl is also known for being soft-hearted and kind-hearted, naturally she is not It is possible that this servant girl was instructed to do such a harmful thing! It must be her own interests! It must not be my Rou girl who did it!"

For Mo Wanrou, the second granddaughter, the old lady is quite satisfied. She has a submissive personality, a kind heart, and is willing to help others. But since the Wuzhi Baihua Gao incident happened last time, the old lady has lingering fears, and she has no past for her. That's good.

She narrowed her old eyes again, and cast her cold eyes on Mrs. Bingyan: "It's good to be clear about right and wrong, just have a clear conscience! If the soft girl really didn't do it, the old man wouldn't wrong her! But this maid hasn't said anything yet, you Why are you so excited to come out and talk so much? Where did you learn the etiquette and rules of Mojia, a female ring?"

What the old lady can't stand the most is people who act recklessly and don't respect etiquette. This time, Mrs. Bingyan has hit the point of the gun!Some people in the crowd gloated and watched the show!
"Old lady, daughter-in-law, I know!" Mrs. Bingyan knelt down hastily, "It's my daughter-in-law who loves her daughter so much that she offended old lady. I hope old lady will forgive me!"

"That's all!" The old lady waved her hand, "For the sake of your beloved daughter, let me spare you this time! Don't make an example!"

Mrs. Bingyan smiled happily and stood up, "Thank you, old lady! My daughter-in-law will remember the old lady's teaching!"

"Okay, then tell me why you framed Laoshen and Li girl, why you handed the golden hairpin to Mrs. Song Er, and where did you get your golden hairpin and earrings?" The old lady looked at the maid.

"Returning to the old lady, the servant just accidentally dropped the hairpin and earrings, and then the second lady of Song saw it and picked it up, which caused this disaster. It was the fault of the servant. For the sake of smallness, I forgive this servant girl!" The maid banged her head and kept begging for mercy.

After a while, the bright red blood on the forehead flowed down the cheeks, and the ground was bright red. The few timid ones turned pale with fright, and raised their sleeves to cover their eyes.

"Nonsense!" The old lady turned a blind eye to the blood-stained person, "Second Mrs. Song was pressed down by a few servants at that time, how did she break free and find out that you lost the hairpin and how did you pick it up?" of?"

The maid didn't know whether she was guilty of being exposed by the lie or something, her eyes were dull, her small body didn't move, she stared at the ground in a daze.

"Quick, stop her, be careful that she commits suicide by taking poison!" A man's voice came from afar.

The sharp-eyed Yingchun foot quickly kicked away the girl's hand that was getting closer to her mouth. The girl fell down with her painful hand, and the white pill fell to the ground and rolled twice. The girl tried to get up again. He wanted to pick up the pill, but was picked up by the faster Yingchun.

At this moment, no one cared who the strange man who kindly reminded him was, and everyone focused on the little maid and Yingchun.

As expected, Yingchun grew up beside the old lady. She is thoughtful and thoughtful, and her speed is twice as fast as ordinary people!
And as soon as the poisoning incident happened, the old lady became very wary of her, and took pictures of a few strong servants to suppress the maidservant on the ground, lest she take poison again or do anything.

The atmosphere was slightly stiff, and everyone took a step back, looking at the suppressed maid and the serious old lady, no one dared to speak.

"Ahem..." Until a weak cough came from inside the room.

Following the sound of coughing, a white-haired old doctor and his servant rushed out of the house and saluted the old lady.

"You don't need to be polite, Imperial Physician Li, how is Li girl's condition?" The old lady got straight to the point.

"Fortunately, fortunately!" Li Taiyi took the towel handed by the servant and wiped the sweat on his face, "Although the hairpin was inserted a little deep, fortunately it didn't go to the vital part, it's just that there was a lot of blood loss. I believe it will be fine." After recuperation, it will be cured within a month."

Hearing this, a gleam of joy flashed across the old lady's face, she took Li Tai-doctor's hand and thanked him non-stop, and ordered Yingchun Yingxia to bring a big gift box and a box of silver to thank, and asked Yingchun Yingxia to send Li Tai-doctor out.

It can be seen from this that Mo Liuli's position in the old lady's heart suddenly reflected a few envious and jealous eyes from the crowd, which were hot and unkind.

"Keep your voice down while you're here, don't disturb Li girl's rest! I go in and see Li girl first." Before entering the room, the old lady did not forget to whisper to everyone.

"Ahem..." Lying on the bed, Mo Liuli was extremely weak, and Mo Liuli, who had no blood on her face, covered her lips and coughed lightly.

"Girl Li, is your body still hurting?" The old lady tucked the corner of the quilt and asked caringly.

"Cough, cough..." Mo Liuli wanted to speak, but another series of coughs came out, and it took a long time to catch her breath, and she replied weakly, "Thank you, old lady, for your concern, Li'er, well, it's much better..."
