Chapter 526

After she finished speaking, she got up suddenly, and slammed into the wall pillar beside her. Her movement was so sudden that even Hui An didn't react. The next moment, she heard a muffled sound, and then Manyun's body went limp. She collapsed softly, with blood gushing all over her face, but she was still muttering to herself, "Damn me... a ghost won't let you go..."

This scene was too sudden and tragic, but Manyun's pale face was facing Hui'an and the others when he fell down. At that moment, Aunt Qing and the others screamed in fright, Hui An frowned and looked at them, little Aunt Chen was already Head tilted and fainted, Aunt Rong closed her eyes and recited Amitabha Buddha, Aunt Qing screamed and grabbed the maid's hand, Aunt Ji Lan looked at Manyun, her face turned pale but she still pretended to be calm.

Judging from the reactions of the few people, there was no clue. Hui'an ordered Manyun's body to be dragged down, and asked the mother-in-law to send the fainted Aunt Chen back to have an abortion, and everyone gradually settled down.

Aunt Qing had a pale face, but looked at Aunt Lan, and said, "Sister Lan, this Manyun was by your side earlier, but now she is going to the sewing room, but Sister Lan doesn't think about the old master. The servant is divided into her begging for mercy. If Sister Lan had started earlier, Manyun felt that there was still hope, and maybe she would not be so hard to think about it. It is a trivial matter that she committed suicide, but because of it, the real murderer who murdered the sixth young master Hiding it is a big deal."

In recent years, Aunt Qing and Aunt Lan have been favored the most, and it is inevitable that Aunt Qing will target Aunt Lan in everything today.

Aunt Lan gritted her teeth bluntly when she heard the words, and finally couldn't bear it any longer. She stared at Aunt Qing and said coldly: "If my younger sister really has something to say, you might as well just say what you think. Why bother to make big detours? Standing up straight is not something people can slander if they want to, even if my sister really has any ideas, it depends on whether the master believes it or not."

When Aunt Qing heard what Aunt Lan said, she smiled and said, "Sister, why are you so angry? If you don't know, you may think that this is something that Sister is trying to cover up."

"You!" Aunt Lan pointed at Aunt Qing angrily, but Aunt Qing only gave her a blank look, then looked at Hui An again, and said, "Young Mistress is smart and capable, I believe no matter who it is, she will definitely not tell her to run away with Young Mistress around." Of course, no one will be wronged, Sister Lan, don’t you think so?”

Aunt Lan was trembling with anger at Aunt Qing's schadenfreude, she just flicked her sleeves and sat silent again.The mothers-in-law have searched Manyun's home and brought her several family members here. Hui'an interrogated for a long time, but found nothing. A servant girl, but in the end it was not possible to find out who added the ingredients to the honeypot.

Seeing that the sun was already in the middle, Hui An looked at Aunt Qing and the others, and said, "According to what the aunts think, how should we deal with this matter?"

After hearing this, Aunt Qing said: "It's impossible for a girl like Manyun to do it alone. There must be someone who instigated her. It's not enough to search Manyun's home and the residences of the people in the sewing room. Concubine, the poisoning of the Sixth Young Master is a serious matter, the meaning of the concubine is not to search all the places of the master, it also shows that the young mistress is fair, and it is not sure what can be found."

Hui An nodded when she heard the words, but looked at Aunt Lan and Aunt Rong, and asked, "What do you two Aunts mean?"

Aunt Lan only glanced at Aunt Qing, her complexion looked a bit ugly, before saying after a while: "Let's search the concubine's yard first."

Aunt Rong finally spoke: "The concubine obeys the arrangement of the young mistress."

After hearing this, Hui'an said: "Then let's search all of them. Since everyone is in my Qifengyuan, there is no reason to search Aunt Lan's courtyard from near and far. Let's start searching from this Qifengyuan. , Steward Zhou will take the people there himself."

Housekeeper Zhou agreed, and brought a group of women out of the yard, before Hui An said: "This is a matter of the inner house, and the family ugliness should not be publicized, so it is inconvenient to invite outsiders to intervene, but now the mansion is no longer what it looks like, and there have been rumors outside. I have been infected with a chronic poison. Since I am not capable enough, I can't find any clues after searching for half a day. According to my opinion, it is better to take the master's post and ask an adult who judges the case to take a look at it. What do you find, what do the aunts think?"

Fangcai Hui'an had already questioned all the maids in Guan Yuanzhuo's room and the people in the big kitchen about the Zhongchen sand poison two years ago, but found nothing.The cinnabar poisoning can only be done through ingestion, Hui An really can't figure out what went wrong and someone took advantage of it, so it is reasonable to ask the adults from the Ministry of Punishment to come over now.

Aunt Lan and the others had different expressions when they heard the words. If the adults from the Ministry of Criminal Justice were invited, who knows if they would be caught in some trouble out of thin air. None of them are completely clean in their daily affairs. Everyone really wants to.

But Hui An only glanced at a few people, and then said: "That's it, Nanny Fang, you will go to find the master to report this matter in person in a while, and invite someone to come to the mansion to investigate in the afternoon."

Nanny Fang responded, and after a while, Steward Zhou came back with someone and said: "Young Mistress, I searched all over the yard, but found no cinnabar."

Hui An was not surprised when he heard the words, since that person wanted to do something, he would not leave such obvious evidence of crime, but Aunt Qing looked at Aunt Lan unwillingly when she heard this.Hui'an also instinctively looked at Aunt Xia Lan, but saw her let out a sigh of relief.

Hui'an's eyes flickered, and then she turned away and looked at Aunt Rong without any trace, but she was still sitting there with a blank expression on her face.

"Forget it, it seems that there is nothing to be found out today. Manyun's family members are detained, and those in the same room as her are under strict surveillance. We can only see if the adults in the punishment department can find out anything in the afternoon. Today I'm tired too, everyone, let's go here first."

Hui Anyan stood up, but walked towards Aunt Rong, took her hand, and said, "Auntie is feeling better?"

Aunt Rong didn't seem to expect that Hui'an would care about her personally, and said flatteredly: "Thank you for your concern, young mistress, the concubine is much better. On the contrary, young mistress, she has lost so much weight in just two days. It's lucky that young mistress can keep the fetus, but don't worry about it." No matter how hard you work, your body will be exhausted."
