Your Majesty, Your Majesty has run away again

Chapter 529 I Have Been Stupid since I was a Child

"I, I really like Lord Ximen, I liked it at first sight, but my mother taught me not to play tricks on the person I like. I wanted to peek at Lord Ximen last night, but I heard His Royal Highness say let me He was going to leave today. I thought Master Ximen was about to leave, so I made him a pot of tea and sent it to him. My skill at making tea is the best. I want to leave a good impression on Master Ximen. Impression, I really didn't take the medicine, I didn't!"

Huang Xinyi finally said all she wanted to say in one breath, and she would never admit what she hadn't done, but I don't know why everyone thinks that she drugged Lord Ximen, even her maid said it was her.

"Xinyi, why didn't you say it earlier?" The magistrate was taken aback, why is this different from what he heard before?
"Father, I'm a bit mischievous on weekdays, but I would never do such a thing. But neither you nor mother listened to my explanation, and Chun'er also misunderstood me." Huang Xinyi had never been so wronged for a moment. He only asked Chun'er, the maidservant, and didn't listen to her at all, so he decided that she was the one who drugged Lord Ximen.

"Xinyi, I..." The county magistrate was at a loss for words. After learning about what happened between Lord Ximen and Xinyi, he really wanted to slap his daughter a few times in anger, but he still couldn't give up, but he didn't want to ask her anything. , and directly asked her eldest maid, Chun'er.

"Lord County Magistrate, go and ask Chun'er to come up, she is a key person." Shen Xin had a premonition that Chun'er was an important person, so the Magistrate ordered someone to bring Chun'er up obediently.

"Chun'er, tell me honestly, why did you slander your young lady?" The county magistrate was feeling very guilty for wronging his daughter, so he took all his anger on the maidservant Chun'er.

"Master, this servant did not slander Miss. The lady really asked this servant about the love potion, and then something happened to the lady, so the servant said that it was the medicine given by the lady." Chun'er said the matter very calmly, There was no nervousness or fear at all.

"Oh, so that's the case. I didn't expect the servants in the mansion to be really upright. If I did something wrong, my servants would try their best to cover it up for me. Your mansion is really special." Shen Xinyi thought It is pointed out that this girl named Chun'er was obviously bought by someone, and judging from her appearance, it seems that she has already found a new home.Generally, a maid who has no special circumstances but wants to stay with her master all the time, isn't she afraid that Huang Xinyi, the master, will make things difficult for her in the future?
"Father, I did say in private that I was going to give medicine, and I had that thought, but I didn't do that. Master Ximen, you have to trust me, I won't do such a thing." Huang Xinyi anxiously asked Ximen Li explained, but Shen Xin was overwhelmed by the power of her explanation.My eldest lady, can you be more careful, I have already said it so clearly, you still don't doubt Chun'er's motives, but instead say that you have the idea of ​​drugging, isn't this forcing others to doubt you?
"Is there someone by your side when you make tea?" Seeing that Huang Xinyi was in tears, the county magistrate felt distressed and asked hastily.

"Chun'er is right next to me. If you don't believe me, you can ask Chun'er." Huang Xinyi looked at Chun'er who was kneeling beside her. Chun'er can definitely testify for her. When making tea last night, only Chun'er was by her side.

"My lord, my servant is wronged. Last night, my servant had a headache and went to bed early. The lady must have remembered wrongly. The servant does not remember when the lady made tea." Chun'er denied it with a firm expression, expressing that she was not at that time. present.

"Chun'er, are you sleepy? Last night you told me that the tea leaves were out and I had to go to the storeroom to get them. Last night, you went to the storeroom to get me the tea leaves." Huang Xinyi couldn't believe Chun'er. Will flatly deny it, obviously they were together last night.

"Miss, you can't wrong the servant indiscriminately. Master, if you don't believe the servant, you can ask the housekeeper. The key to the storeroom has always been in charge of the housekeeper. If you ask the housekeeper, you will know whether the servant went to the warehouse last night." Chun'er He looked at Huang Xinyi in surprise, with a pitiful look that he didn't expect that she would wrong him.

"Uncle Xiang, did Chun'er go to the warehouse last night?" The housekeeper came up quickly, an elderly man.

"Master, the villain's grandson had a high fever last night. The villain went back to see his grandson. The key is always with him. The villain even asked you for leave during the day." Uncle Xiang took out the clip on his waist He showed the key to everyone, he always carried the key with him, no one could enter the warehouse without the key.

"That's right, you did sue me for leave." Only then did the county magistrate remember that Uncle Xiang had indeed come to tell him yesterday that he would go home. Loyalty doesn't lie, but how does it work?
"The master is wise, so the young lady must have lied. I really didn't go to the warehouse to get any tea last night, and I don't know that the young lady made tea for Sir Ximen last night." Chun'er was overjoyed after hearing this, and she seized the opportunity to defend herself.

"Then I would like to ask Chun'er, where did you get this fine jade pendant in your room? If I remember correctly, the maid in the mansion only gets three or four taels a year. Uncle Xiang, do you think so?" It was the magistrate's wife who was holding a jade pendant of excellent quality in her hand.

"Mrs. Hui, a big maid like Chun'er costs four or five taels of silver a year, and the warm jade pendant in your hand should cost 20 taels of silver." Uncle Xiang is the housekeeper of the house, and he is very concerned about the monthly money of each servant. Know everything.

"Chun'er, explain to Mrs. Ben what's going on? If I remember correctly, you entered the mansion as a maidservant because your parents were sick for many years, right? Even if you don't eat, drink or send money to the family, It will take at least five or six years for you to afford this jade pendant, right?" The magistrate's wife began to question Chun'er sharply after getting a satisfactory answer, how could she not understand her own daughter?Xinyi is a bit difficult to discipline on weekdays, but she won't do such foolish things as drugging her.

"Mother, you finally believe me." All Huang Xinyi's grievances turned into tears, and she threw herself pitifully into the arms of the magistrate's wife.

"Stupid child, you were born in ten months of pregnancy, mother still doesn't trust you? It's your stupid father, who gets more and more confused as he gets older." The magistrate's wife comforted Huang Xinyi, and at the same time, she didn't forget to blame the magistrate A few words.She understands her daughter, and she also understands her husband, he just loves his daughter so much, that's why he went to Lord Ximen directly after something happened.But I can't expect my husband to be so smart, after all, he has been a fool since he was a child, so how could he be enlightened all of a sudden?
