Chapter Seventy-One: The Scapegoat
Jiang Mohan's smile was light, and he replied: "The dragon among the people of the four highnesses, naturally nothing can be hidden from your eyes. ”
"Heh......" Yan Ming chuckled, glanced at Jiang Mohan and said, "Don't say it if Lord Jiang's flattery doesn't go well, I don't know whether to praise me or hurt me." ”
Jiang Mohan also laughed and said, "Since His Royal Highness said so, then I won't be reluctant." ”
Hearing this, Yan Ming couldn't help but laugh again, and only with Jiang Mohan and Wei Rong could he let down his guard and enjoy himself for a while.
Jiang Mohan and Yan Ming chatted at the door for a while before Wei Rong walked out, and Jiang Mohan quipped: "I thought you wouldn't come out without waiting for an hour or two." ”
Wei Rong didn't even bother to give him a look, and went straight to his horse.
Seeing this, Yan Ming was not surprised, and patted Jiang Mohan on the shoulder funny, before stepping into the carriage. Jiang Mohan shrugged, turned over and got on his horse, and the three of them left the Yu Mansion.
The next day, as soon as Yu Mingjiang came back, Xue Jiayi came to the study with a little maid from Juhuayuan. Yu Mingjiang knew what it meant at a glance.
"Master, the concubine's body has been investigated last night."
Yu Mingjiang lazily raised his eyelids and glanced at Xue Jiayi, and motioned for Xue Jiayi to continue.
"This is the girl in Wen'er's yard picking lotus, let her tell the master herself." Xue Jiayi glanced at Cai He, and there was a warning in her eyes.
Caihe was restrained by Mama Zhang and couldn't move, and her face was full of tears. However, seeing Xue Jiayi's gaze, she didn't dare not speak, and said in a trembling voice: "Master Qiyu, the crane top red in the eldest lady's tea was given to her by the slave maid. ”
Yu Mingjiang was not surprised, let out a faint sigh, and asked, "Why did you poison Baoyun?" ”
"The slave maid saw that the eldest lady came to the second lady that day, before the slave's mother was seriously ill, it was the second lady who saved the slave and maid with silver, and the second lady treated the slave and maid as kind as a mountain, and the slave and maid could not repay it. Therefore, when she saw that the second lady was wronged, the slave maid thought that if there was no eldest lady, the second lady would become the only concubine, and there would be no need to be subordinate to the eldest lady. The slave maid gave the eldest lady's tea a crane top red. ”
It makes sense.
"Then where did you get your crane top red?" Yu Mingjiang asked.
"In the past, when I was in Yicheng, the old housekeeper would use some crane top red as rat poison, and before leaving Yicheng, the slave and maid asked him for some, thinking that they would also be used as rat poison after coming to the capital."
This means that there is no evidence that she bought Hedinghong in the capital, and she can only go to Yicheng to find evidence. Wei Rong shouldn't go to Yicheng for verification for such a trivial matter.
Yu Mingjiang thought about it for a while, and felt that this could be regarded as giving Wei Rong an explanation, and said to Caihe with an expressionless face: "Even if you are for Wen'er, you shouldn't do anything to Baoyun." ”
After saying this sentence painlessly, he waved his hand to Xue Jiayi and said, "Send her to Jingzhao Mansion and deal with her according to the law." ”
According to the law, poisoning is to behead the public. And Xue Jiayi won't let her live. Caihe's life is bound to come to an end.
Seeing that it was the result she expected, Xue Jiayi breathed a sigh of relief. Then a sneer climbed up the corner of her mouth, as long as Caihe said what she had just said in Jingzhao Mansion, she wanted to see how angry Bao Yun was.
One is Jiawen who wants to protect her life, and the other is Baoyun who wants to kill her life. It is already clear at a glance which is right and which is wrong, which is good and which is bad.
Doesn't Yu Mingjiang know the stakes involved? I'm afraid and shouldn't.
When Mama Zhang was grabbing the lotus and walking out, Baoyun appeared at the door.
"Father, what's the matter with this girl?"
Hearing the voice, Yu Mingjiang raised his head, and when he saw that it was really Baoyun who came, he couldn't help but feel a wave of boredom in his heart. If Bao Yun was willing to say a word for him yesterday, he wouldn't be so unable to raise his head in front of Wei Rong.
Now that things finally have a result he wants, what does Baoyun want to do at this time?
Thinking of this, his face was not very good, and he said, "Your body is still weak, why don't you raise yourself in the residential home?" ”
As if she didn't see his ugly face, Bao Yun smiled and said, "My daughter heard that she found the person who harmed her daughter, so she naturally wanted to come and take a look." Is this the man who murdered his daughter? ”
There are no outsiders here, and Xue Jiayi doesn't have to hide her dislike for Baoyun, and said: "Your father is in charge of this matter, and you don't need to know this as a boudoir lady." ”
"Really?" Bao Yun sneered, walked in front of Caihe, and said while looking at Caihe: "My daughter's biological mother died early, if I don't care about my own affairs, I'm afraid I don't know how to die." ”
"What do you say?" Yu Mingjiang said unhappily: "How can you say such a thing, do you mean that your father has wronged you?" ”
Yi Dan rolled her eyes widely, but in the short time she arrived in the capital, Bao Yun was afraid that she couldn't count the grievances she had suffered on one hand, is this still good for Bao Yun?
The dignified concubine was bullied by a stepsister and sister-in-law like this, Baoyun still smiled and said everything is okay?
"The daughter didn't mean this, she just heard that the person who killed the daughter came to take a look, and the father and mother said so much, and the daughter didn't know what she did wrong to make the father and mother so dissatisfied." Bao Yun's clear eyes looked directly at Yu Mingjiang.
Yu Mingjiang didn't take advantage of it, and when Bao Yun saw it like this, he felt even more empty-hearted, and couldn't help lowering his head and said, "You think too much, you still don't understand these adults' affairs." ”
"My daughter just wants to know why she was poisoned and murdered, why has this become an adult's business again?" Bao Yun reacted quickly, and Yu Mingjiang asked as soon as his words fell.
The more innocent Bao Yun looked, the more embarrassed Yu Mingjiang felt. He thought that he was a waiter in the criminal department who was stopped by a stinking little girl in Baoyun, and he was even more annoyed.
Xue Jiayi had been looking at Yu Mingjiang all the time, and when she saw Yu Mingjiang's expression gloomy, she couldn't help but have extraneous branches, she smiled and said to Bao Yun: "Bao Yun, your father doesn't want you to know such a dirty thing. Your father has already made a decision for you, so you can take care of your body and leave these things alone. ”
"Thank you for the kindness of my father and mother, but now that my daughter is here, my father and mother don't have to make this decision for my daughter, and my daughter has grown up and can distinguish between black and white, right and wrong, and I can't let my father and mother make decisions for my daughter all my life, right?" Bao Yun said and looked at Xue Jiayi, with a hint of mockery in her eyes.
Xue Jiayi asked Qin Lin to poison her before, but if she didn't have a seizure at that time, it doesn't mean that she will never have a seizure.
