Rather be a concubine

Chapter 218
Wu Yuan, the pusher of Shuntian Mansion, brought Dong Lianxia Yu, who had been serving Bo Rao, to Shuntian Mansion for interrogation, but Bo Yuqiao didn't know exactly what news came out of the interrogation. It's not easy to snoop.

Right now, Bo Yuqiao knows that she can't be impatient, otherwise, if Cheng finds a loophole in her, she might unceremoniously plant the blame. However, the people in her Qiongzhi Pavilion seem to be very peaceful these days, and they probably won't It was so easy to be caught in the wrong place by Cheng.

Bo Yuqiao had a good idea in her heart, but it was not the case when things came to an end. On the afternoon of the day when Shuntian Mansion promoted Wu Yuan to leave the mansion, another group of arresters ushered in Qiongzhi Pavilion. The policeman was really rude, and began to look around for three bloodstains on the left hand.Hearing this news, Bo Yuqiao's heart was like a bright mirror, presumably this investigation is still related to Bo Rao's death.

When a young boy who was extremely quiet on weekdays was turned in front of Bo Yuqiao, two tall guards suppressed him and made him fall to his knees.One of the arresters quickly rolled up the sleeve of the boy's left arm, revealing the three bloodstains on the wrist, now the three bloodstains have scabbed over, it is really horrifying to see.

The young servant who was kneeling on the ground lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, without even a half-word of excuse, it seemed that his heart was ashes.Seeing this, Bo Yuqiao couldn't help sneering.She didn't need to think about such a situation, and she knew that it was a trap set by that vicious woman of the Cheng family.Otherwise, where would the boy be arrested and quickly arrested, without even a half-sentence to justify?
Bo Yuqiao pursed her lips, and without looking at the slave Yangzi who was kneeling on the ground, she asked the two police officers standing in the hall.

"You two officials, I don't know what crime this person has committed. It is worth your two officials to come to Qiongzhi Pavilion to take him away?"

Hearing Bo Yuqiao's respectful words, the two policemen couldn't help but feel a little panicked.When they came to Bo Mansion to search, they had already been mentioned by their superiors, saying that the master of Qiongzhi Pavilion, but the person appointed by His Royal Highness King Rui, although he was nothing more than a concubine, was not their kind after all. Influential police officers can afford to offend.

One of the arresters took a step forward, saluted Bo Yuqiao, and said loudly.

"Miss, I don't know. Our assistant from Shuntian Mansion inspected the body of your aunt's aunt before, and found that there were bloodstains between the nails of the three fingers of her right hand. I knew that someone was probably injured by your aunt's nails. After interrogating After talking about Dong Lian and Xia Yu's two maids, the two of them said, "Aunt and grandma just refused to save her before, and let Fourth Miss you hold a grudge, so she did such a vicious thing."

After talking about it, embarrassment appeared on the resolute face of the policeman. Although the testimony of Dong Lianxia Yu and the two maids may not be true, it is still a piece of evidence after all. He didn't have the guts to take Bo Yuqiao back for interrogation.

Hearing what the policeman said, the smile on Bo Yuqiao's face became even stronger. Before that, she was thinking about what kind of trick Cheng would do, but now that she saw it, it was nothing more than planting and framing her.And on the day Bo Rao was killed, Bo Yuqiao and Bo Qingyuan were in the hall together. With Bo Qingyuan's upright character, he must have disdain to tell lies.

Thinking of this, Bo Yuqiao didn't feel any worry in her heart, she immediately nodded slightly, and said to the two fast guards.

"Such a young lady has already understood the cause and effect, so I will trouble you two to bring that young man to Shuntian Mansion for interrogation! After all, a young man has been arrested by two people, and there is no reason to argue. Is it strange?"

Bo Yuqiao's voice was as clear as a silver bell, but when he heard it in the ears of the two policemen, they were suddenly stunned.What Miss Bo just mentioned is really unreasonable.This boy seemed to be arranged by others, and his purpose was to frame Miss Bo.

Thinking of this, the two policemen immediately turned serious, and then they clasped their fists at Bo Yuqiao again, and said.

"I hope Ms. Qiao can rest assured that the Shuntian Mansion will handle this matter impartially."

Hearing this, Bo Yuqiao nodded slightly, cast a sidelong glance at the boy kneeling on the ground from the corner of her eye, and said softly.

"You two officials, the matter of the blood stains should have been initiated because of the autopsy done by you today, then when you return to the Shuntian Mansion, I would like to trouble you to invite a doctor to investigate the wounds of the young man. to see if it is a recent wound. The little lady also glanced at the wound just now, and found that the blood stain on his wrist was red in color, and it was very complete. Should it also be called one of the suspicious points?"

Hearing what Bo Yuqiao said, the two police officers had no choice but to say yes, but secretly felt bitter. This Miss Qiao is really not a good lady, although her appearance is extremely beautiful, but judging by her careful thought, she probably doesn't like it. Only His Highness King Rui can bear it.

When the two policemen were about to leave Qiongzhi Pavilion, they didn't expect Bo Yuqiao to speak again.

"If the two officials are not busy, then we will check the person who may have caused trouble just now. There is a saying in the "Winning Injustice Collection" that if the burn is scalded with boiling water, the scar on it may be destroyed. Cover it up, thus missing the real thief."

When Bo Yuqiao spoke like this, the hearts of the two police officers were shocked immediately. At the same time, they both remembered that there was a young servant just now, and they served tea to them in Xingjian Residence, but because of a maid's collision, the hot He poured the tea on his wrist, and it immediately bubbled up. From this point of view, the boy must have done it on purpose in all likelihood!
Seeing the serious expressions of the two police officers in front of her, obviously taking the matter to heart, Bo Yuqiao slightly nodded at Su Mo who was waiting on the side. The latter understood what Bo Yuqiao meant, so he took out a purse from his wrist, Walking up to the two arresting officers, he handed over the purse with emerald emerald green bamboo to one of them, and said with a light smile.

"The two officials are really too busy. Let the two of you leave the scattered money to eat and drink. It is right to treat it as my lady's kindness."

These two catchers are considered old fritters, so naturally they will not refuse such a reward.After all, if you push the reward, it will surely attract Miss Bo's surprise. If that's the case, it's better to take the money and go out to eat a few meals.

In this way, the two thanked Bo Yuqiao three or four times before leaving Qiongzhi Pavilion with the servant.

After the two left, all the smiles on Bo Yuqiao's face disappeared, then she turned around, sat on the Eight Immortals' chair, closed her eyes slightly, and gave Su Mo an order.

"Su Mo, just let me know when Master Qingyuan returns home."

Hearing what Bo Yuqiao said, Su Mo immediately responded, and then replaced the cold tea on the mahogany table with the high-quality Keemun red tea soup, which was as gorgeous as roses, which made Bo Yuqiao feel relaxed. a little.

After Bo Yuqiao had dinner, the servant girl Su Mo finally spoke.

"Miss, Master Qingyuan hasn't returned to the mansion yet, you'd better take a rest first, we'll talk tomorrow if you have anything to do."

Hearing this, Bo Yuqiao frowned slightly, but she couldn't help but feel a little puzzled, if it was going to be dark today, it would not be too early, why didn't Bo Qingyuan return home yet?Could it be that he really begged for the bones with Emperor Chongwen?
If so, Bo Yuqiao really admired Bo Qingyuan's courage.Now that Bo Zheng has been put into prison, only Bo Qingyuan is left as an official in the Bo Mansion. If this guy resigns from office, then even with the title of Uncle Yingwu, the Bo Manor will not be able to prevent the result of its decline.

Thinking of this, Bo Yuqiao felt a little regretful, after all, Brother Yang is still young, if he had already grown up, he would still be rejected from entering the court.But looking at the current situation of the Bo Mansion, it will probably not take three to five years before it will completely decline into a merchant. At that time, Brother Yang will have to take the imperial examinations on his own, and will not be able to find the family's protection.

Seeing Bo Yuqiao's sigh, Su Mo's heart ached immediately, so she said something tentatively.

"Miss, if you really have something very important to discuss with Young Master Qingyuan, you can wait for now. After Young Master Qingyuan returns home, I will invite you to our Qiongzhi Pavilion."

Hearing Su Mo's words, Bo Yuqiao couldn't help but slightly curled her red lips and let out a chuckle.After the servant girl Su Mo came to the Bo Mansion, she really became more and more gentle. The coldness she used to have because of her background as a dead soldier has now disappeared like ice and snow melting.

Coupled with this little lady's beautiful appearance and gentle temper, it's no wonder that the foster father is deeply involved in it.

"Su Mo, don't you want to follow me to the Xinglin Pavilion? After all, you can't hide from what needs to be solved."

Hearing this, Su Mo opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know where to start, so he lowered his eyebrows respectfully, so as not to let the young lady notice her turbulent emotions.

Seeing that Su Mo kept silent, Bo Yuqiao didn't want to force her, so she directed to Huang Ying who was beside her, and said.

"Huang Ying, you can prepare hot water first, I want to take a bath."

Hearing the young lady's order, the maid Huang Ying didn't dare to be negligent, she hurriedly went to find the rough envoy maid, and asked them to carry the hot water that had been boiled in the small kitchen to Qiongzhi Pavilion, and after adjusting the temperature with the milk, Just now I called the young lady into the ear room.

Bo Yuqiao soaked in the bathtub for half an hour, until she felt a little tired, then got up from the bathtub, took a clean towel, wiped off all the water droplets on her body, and then let herself go Huang Ying wrings her hair dry.

After working like this for a while, the sky has already completely darkened. At the beginning of the month, Dongshan is shining brightly with stars, which is very good to watch.But in the current situation, Bo Yuqiao didn't have the mood to appreciate the moon, she was thinking whether to take a break, when she heard the news from Su Mo's end—Master Qingyuan finally returned to the present moment with the smell of alcohol all over his body In the small courtyard where I live.
