Xiangmen black-bellied woman

Chapter 242 Disappointed!

Shen Ninghua was sitting on the chair, stroking her abdomen with her palms, feeling a cold fear in her heart. If she hadn't reacted quickly just now, the child might have disappeared... If that was the case, would she have lost the chance to be a mother again?

Chu Junyi walked slowly in front of Shen Dong, and every step he took, his cold eyes became deeper and deeper. When he stood in front of Shen Dong, his black eyes were already sharp and cold:
"Patriarch Shen, this cat was fine just now, but now it suddenly went berserk. It seems that it was not long after it was fed the medicine. If this is the case, you can find the evidence by searching."

Looking at Chu Junyi's appearance, Shen Dong was in a trance. He had always thought that this Shuangjue son was just in name only, but he did not expect him to have such power. In terms of this kind of bearing, even the princes can't match it. superior:

"Chu Concubine, the emperor ordered my mother to be buried in the boudoir of his wife, so there is no room for any mistakes in her funeral, but now you are going to search her funeral. If you do this, won't you disturb the peace of the deceased?" , also violated the emperor's will?"

Hearing the threat in Shen Dong's words, Chu Junyi raised the corners of his lips coldly, and was too lazy to continue entangled with him: "Rites first and then soldiers, it seems that using courtesy will not work, if this is the case, then I will not ask for your consent Come, come, surround this place, and search every corner carefully."

Shen Dong looked at Chu Junyi with a frown, and laughed in his heart: there were two girls, Hong Ling and Qing Que, standing beside him. Could it be that they were allowed to search the huge Shen's house side by side?
Just when he was laughing at Chu Junyi's overreaching, he suddenly heard a sound of orderly footsteps, and suddenly turned around in surprise, and saw a group of guards in armor and holding weapons rushing into the gate of the mansion. The outer three floors surrounded the entire mourning hall.

Chu Junyi's eyes turned coldly, he raised his hand slightly, and waved at the guards behind him: "Listen to my orders, search Shen's residence carefully, execute now!"

"Yes, the slave obeys."

This group of guards looked to be well-trained. A team of guards was assigned to guard the servant kneeling on the ground carefully. The other guards were divided into three groups to search every corner carefully. .

Shen Ninghua was also a little surprised when she saw her soldiers coming, but then she realized that it must be Chu Junyi who made the arrangements secretly.

What she did today is extremely easy to be criticized by others. As soon as she leaves and the matter is publicized, many people will surely poke her back. After all, as a granddaughter, she beat and killed a servant at her grandmother's funeral, causing a lot of trouble It can be regarded as extremely unfilial to have a restless funeral.

This kind of fanfare dispatching the government soldiers can divert the attention of the people to a certain extent and make them curious about what happened in their hearts. In this way, she can secretly control the direction of the rumors. It can be washed white, not to mention, she thinks she is not black.

Shen Dong's face has turned purple. He used to be an extremely human minister, with one man under one man and one man above ten thousand people. Who would have thought that today he would end up in such a state of being bullied.He couldn't help but think of what Zhao Shi had said before, she said that Shen Ninghua is a broom star, since she returned to the Shen family, things in the family have never been calm, as if an invisible hand pushed the Shen family to death little by little .

Looking at it now, it really is!His favorite pair of sons and daughters had accidents one after another, and he was reduced from the position of prime minister to a commoner!He should have obeyed Mrs. Zhao's words and drove her out of the Shen residence!

Sensing that Shen Dong could almost catch Ling Chi's gaze, Shen Ninghua showed no reaction on her face, but she was sneering in her heart: Thinking about this time, Shen Dong must hate himself to death, and even treat himself as a bastard However, she has already given up on this family relationship, so he can do whatever he wants, anyway, it won't cause any trouble.

Soon, a guard came to report: "Report to the princess, report to the son-in-law, the servant searched and found a lot of expensive jewelry in the servant's room."

Shen Ninghua raised her eyes, Hong Ling quickly took the jewelry from the guard's hand, and held it for Shen Ninghua to look at: "These jewelry are worth thousands of gold, not something that servants can afford."

As she spoke, she glanced at the maids kneeling on the ground: "The ones who can use jewelry must be women, Hongling and Qingque, go forward and search the body, see if there are any abnormalities on those maids?"

As soon as Shen Ninghua's words fell, someone among the maids sobbed: "I beg the princess to spare my life, the servants know that those jewelry are delicate and have nothing to do with the servants and others."

Shen Ninghua looked at the maid who spoke: "Who is Qingmiao?"

A woman shrugged and raised her head, her whole body trembled when she met Shen Ninghua's gaze, and she kept kowtowing for mercy: "Princess, forgive me, those jewels were picked up by the servant, not the servant himself. It's all because the slave is greedy. The cloth bag was picked up, princess, please spare me, the one who poisoned the cat was really not a servant girl. Qingyin, what enmity do I have with you, you actually pushed me to a dead end? "

Shen Ninghua got up and walked in front of Qingmiao, looking down at her: "Raise your head."

Qing Miao raised her head slowly, she was still sobbing because she was crying too urgently: "Your Highness, please be aware."

"It was indeed not you who poisoned."

Qing Miao's face was ecstatic: "Thank you princess, thank you princess."

The maid who revealed the ownership of the jewelry just now turned pale.

Shen Ninghua's voice was indifferent: "Qingque, take away Qingyin, the maid who exposed Qingmiao."

The girl named Qingyin quickly raised her head: "Princess, why did you take this servant away? The servant was wronged."

"You are not wronged at all."

"Princess, you trust this servant, those jewelry are really light-toned, and this servant can use the head on it as a guarantee."

Shen Ninghua turned her head to look at Qingyin, her expression became colder and colder: "You came out to report after I asked you, just to make me feel that you are cowardly, without a city, and lower my guard against you. Under normal circumstances, I really I believe you. It's a pity that you didn't hide the evidence well enough."

Qingyin's pupils kept trembling, but she firmly refused to admit it: "As a princess, you can't frame the servant like this, the servant is not convinced."

Shen Ninghua sneered, her eyes fell on the hairpin on Qingyin's head: "You don't cry when you see the coffin, the hairpin on your head is the proof!"

Qingyin's face turned pale suddenly, and she stroked the top of her head subconsciously.

Shen Ninghua's gaze was so determined that she felt that there was nowhere to escape. If it fell into her hands, then the ending... Thinking about it, she made a decision in her heart, pulled out the hairpin suddenly, and stabbed it at her neck.

No one expected that she would commit suicide directly, and there was no time to step forward to stop her.

Shen Ninghua was not surprised, even if she caught a job, she might not be able to ask anything useful, what she wanted was nothing more than a process.

Chen Yun stepped forward to check the wound on Qingyin's neck, frowned and nodded: "The princess is right, the hairpin is indeed coated with manic drug powder, this maid stabbed her throat, so much manic drug entered the body, and the life It's gone."

Not long after the words fell, Qingyin made a sound of airflow rolling in Qingyin's throat, and he bled to death in a short while, which was exactly the same as the symptoms of the cat's death.

Chu Junyi sneered: "It's really unexpected that the Lord Shen's mansion still uses such a heartfelt maid."

The servants around were already scared to death. In such a short period of time, two people died one after another. Will it be my turn next?

Shen Dong frowned: "My son-in-law, what you said is wrong, this Qingyin was called here temporarily because of the funeral, and he is not from the Shen family at all."

Chu Junyi did not distinguish with him, but looked at the last team that came back.

"Returning to the princess, returning to the son-in-law, the slaves found a lot of medicinal residues in an abandoned well in a remote courtyard in the backyard, and asked people to go down to the well to take out some medicinal residues. I don't know if it will be useful."

Medicine dregs?

Without Shen Ninghua speaking, Chen Yun stepped forward and carefully picked up a piece of medicinal material, put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it: "This medicine contains fire poisonous grass, and the dosage is extremely high. Normal people will damage their internal organs after taking it for three consecutive days. life-threatening."

Chu Junyi stared at Shen Dong closely, and asked, "What about a person who is weak and bedridden?"

"I'm afraid that if it takes two days or less, it will lead to exuberant fire and death."

"It's so serious," Chu Junyi swept the mourning hall behind Shen Dong, and said in a low tone, "Then, may I ask Patriarch Shen, who took the leftovers of these medicines?"

Shen Dong's face turned livid: "What are you implying?"

"Patriarch Shen's reaction was too intense, I just asked, where is there any hint?"

This treacherous fox!

Shen Dong gritted his teeth: "I don't know where this medicine dregs come from."

Chu Junyi raised his eyebrows: "I don't know? It doesn't make sense, is there anyone else in the Shen residence who can't take the medicine? Patriarch Shen, at this time, it's not good to deceive yourself and others."

Shen Dong gritted his teeth: "What does the son-in-law want to hear? Do you want to hear the grass people say that the old lady poured out the medicine residue after taking it?"

"I didn't say that. These medicinal residues are not rotten, that is, they were freshly poured in the past two or three days. If the old lady didn't take them, then someone wants to use fire poisonous weeds to harm people?"

"How is that possible?" Shen Dong quickly retorted.

"If neither of the two is true, then where does Patriarch Shen come from? I, who doesn't know medicinal materials, can tell that the medicinal residue contains extremely valuable purple ginseng. Such a precious medicinal material would not be Did the servant take it?"

Shen Dong was annoyed, didn't these things have been ordered to be handled properly, why were they found out so easily?
Seeing that Shen Dong knew how to answer, the expression on Chu Junyi's face suddenly turned cold, and he snapped, "Patriarch Shen, you still don't admit it, do you want to bring the matter to the Golden Palace and say it in front of the emperor?" clear?"

Shen Dong's heart was beating wildly. He knew exactly what was going on. He had already made a promise. As soon as this matter was completed, the queen would fulfill her promise and help him return to the court. Unexpectedly, the result turned out to be This is now.

Shen Ninghua closed her eyes slightly, not looking at Shen Dong's expression, feeling extremely disappointed in her heart.

Shen Dong tightly clenched his fists, but this matter must not be revealed, otherwise, the queen would never let him live.

Suddenly, Yin of the Jingwei Mansion came in with officers and soldiers: "I have seen the princess, I have seen the son-in-law, and I heard that something happened here, the emperor ordered the officials to take him back for interrogation."
