Zheshu

Chapter 23
The third master came out of Ji Wuhuan's yard safely, but he was still confused, because Ji Wuhuan actually said that he had taken care of everything and that Ning'er would be back soon.

But not long after he was happy, he heard a report from a servant saying that a large number of people had come to Jingzhao Mansion and the search had already begun.

"Search for what!" The third master shook his body.

The servant hurriedly said: "They said they wanted to investigate the two dead servants, and why did someone in the mansion use this to sow discord between you and the lord?"

The third master's face turned green: "Isn't this nonsense, she killed my man, this is conclusive evidence! Where is the man, let's go there quickly..."

He was holding up his robe and was about to go forward in a panic, but the servant looked at him with a troubled expression: "Master, just now a message was sent from the backyard that you are not allowed to show up today."

"How can that be done!" He stopped and said hurriedly.

The servant hesitated for a while, and finally said everything: "The old lady seems to know about this matter, and now people from the Jingzhao Mansion have come to check on her again. I wonder if the old lady doesn't want us to treat her so quickly. Do it, otherwise it is impossible to keep her alive, right?"

The third master was so angry that his mustache trembled: "But we missed this opportunity. When will we go next time? I can see this woman clearly. She is very shrewd. If we let her escape this time, we will point to her in the future." Not sure how to make waves..."

"If Miss Ning'er hadn't insisted on finding trouble with her, she wouldn't have made trouble..."

Before the boy could finish muttering, he was slapped on the face, and then the third master scolded: "Whose slave are you, have you forgotten?"

The boy didn't dare to say more, he quickly bowed his head to admit his mistake, the third master took a deep breath, looked back at Ji Wuhuan's yard that had just left, and said: "I'll go see the old lady first, you have someone stare at her, Our hard work cannot be wasted!"

Seeing this, the boy had no choice but to rush to the laundry room.

As soon as the third master and his party left, Ji Wuhuan came out of the yard with a cold expression on his face.

Sang Rou looked at him distressedly: "My lord, how long do we have to endure it? Could it be that you really plan to end your life..."

"Don't mention this matter again." Ji Wuhuan interrupted coldly, glanced towards the direction of the laundry room, her expression darkened: "She's pretty smart, she knows how to send reinforcements, let's see what happens, two days later Eldest princess's birthday, if she is not dead, prepare something for her to meet the needs of the princess." After finishing speaking, he turned his head and walked out of the mansion.

Sang Rou watched him leave, clenched the handkerchief slightly.Did the prince really just intend to use her, or did he have other thoughts?
The weather is getting colder and colder, the days are covered with overcast clouds, and the yard is full of fallen leaves, which seems to indicate something.

On Shen Qing's side, Master Liu was brought over to investigate, but it was such a transparent firewood room with firewood scattered on the ground, it looked like there had been a fight before death.

Master Liu led people to investigate inside, while Shen Qing and Nanny Zhou were waiting outside, but Nanny Zhou was a little worried: "What you want me to do, I've already done it for you, if something really happens..."

"No accident will happen." Shen Qing smiled lightly, but she knew very well what the old lady in the mansion was thinking. Even if she wanted something to happen to her, she would never let Jing Zhaoyin get involved!
At the door, the servant of the third master sneaked in. Before he could understand, a strange hand was placed on his shoulder.

"Don't make noise, I'm watching right now." The boy flicked her hand away without looking back.

"What are you staring at?"

"Of course I'm staring at..." The little servant was halfway through speaking, then he suddenly turned around and saw the person standing behind him, his legs softened and he knelt down on the ground.

He hesitated and couldn't speak, but the man said: "The crime of murder and frame, you have to bear it."

"Slave?" The boy's face turned pale, but the man only looked up into the yard, and met Shen Qing's gaze.She looked at Shen Qing and saw that she had scars on her face, but those cold eyes and the blood-red cinnabar between her brows made people unable to move their eyes away.She sneered in her heart, confidante is a disaster, especially a beautiful and intelligent confidante.

She gave Shen Qing a little blessing, and then looked down at the boy: "You never think that there will be no way out." After finishing speaking, she turned her head and left.

Seeing Shen Qing looking at the door, Nanny Zhou also turned her head, but only saw the back of a woman in brocade clothes.

"What's wrong?" Mother Zhou asked.

The corner of Shen Qing's mouth slightly raised: "It's okay." If she guessed correctly, the person just now must belong to the old lady.

Sure enough, when Mr. Liu came out, he saw a distraught boy with a pale face staggering in, and admitted that he killed the man without saying a word.

Mr. Liu looked at Shen Qing in surprise, and then at the boy, and asked strangely: "Then why did you kill those two people? Why do you come out and admit it now?"

The boy knelt on the ground, his hands were still trembling, he couldn't say a word, Mr. Liu felt strange, and asked again: "If you admit to murder and intentionally frame you, you will be sentenced to death!"

"Death penalty?" He raised his head in shock, then knelt down on the ground, trembling all over, the only sound in his throat was whimpering.

Shen Qing raised her eyes and looked at Master Liu: "He is a servant next to the third master, why not ask the third master."

"No need, I'm coming!"

Shen Qing just finished speaking, and saw him holding up his robe with a sullen face, and quickly walked in from the outside, and then came to the little servant, and said: "You bastard, don't think that I don't know that you have been scheming all this time. Use this to frame the concubine and me! If you are sensible, you'd better kill yourself now, otherwise, your family will be affected!"

Master Liu raised his head in astonishment, the boy's mind went blank, without even thinking about it, he turned his head and slammed into the wall to death, none of the yamen guards could stop him.

"You——!" Mrs. Liu was so angry that she couldn't speak, and the clear eyes on her thin face were also stained with anger.

The third master didn't care. After making sure that the boy was dead, he turned his head and looked at Shen Qing: "My niece and daughter-in-law are shocked. This time I was confused. I came to look for you without asking clearly, and I was alarmed by the busy businessman. Jing Zhaoyin."

He seemed to try his best to suppress his anger, and said after a long while: "I heard from Wu Huan that Mr. Liu has found out that the previous arson and murder case has nothing to do with Ning'er, so I will go back to the government office with Mr. Liu and take Ning'er with me." Chuang Tzu thousands of miles away, cultivate your body and mind!"

He said the last four words almost by gnashing his teeth. Not only Shen Qing was surprised, but Nanny Zhou also raised her head in surprise. She didn't expect the old lady to be so neat. The third master and the third lady were exposed, so they sent them away Went to Zhuangzi.

Mr. Liu didn't know the twists and turns, he only knew that the people in Su Mu's mansion were rampant, but he didn't know that these three masters could 'kill people' in front of him.

"Do you think that the emperor can really tolerate your solemn government for the rest of your life!" Master Liu asked coldly.

The third master only sneered, glanced at Shen Qing with an unfriendly expression, and then turned his head to look at Master Liu: "It's not up to you, a mere Jing Zhaoyin, to make the decision. Master Liu, it's getting late , I'll go with you to pick up Ning'er, we're still rushing to Zhuangzi!"

After he finished speaking, he clenched his fists and made a cold sound, and then walked out quickly without looking back.

At this time, the cold wind was blowing, mixed with the smell of blood, and the dangerous smell made Shen Qing more vigilant. She had to hug Ji Wuhuan, this big tree as soon as possible, otherwise the identity of Huainan King would kill her sooner or later!
