Extra episode 1:46 It really is her

What Meng Wanzhou is most concerned about now is who was bewitching Meng Wanqiu, and that person was also the murderer of Aunt Liu.

Jing Xi put his hand on her thin shoulder and said in a deep voice: "You have made a guess, haven't you?"

Meng Wanzhou's bloodshot eyes welled up with tears, "I don't want to speculate."

Jing Xi sighed and uttered three words: "Yin Wenxiu."

Meng Wanzhou showed a genuine sneer and shed two tears. She still felt uncomfortable in her heart.

Jing Xi wiped away the tears on her cheeks with her big hands, "Don't be sad for that kind of person, I will deal with her. Can you hold on? Have you eaten?"

Caiyun answered for Meng Wanzhou: "Back to your lord, the lady drank a bowl of sesame juice and took the ginseng slices. Otherwise, I'm afraid she won't be able to persist in what follows."

According to the rules, when a parent dies, a filial son and a filial daughter must not eat fireworks for three days to show their filial piety.

However, the etiquette is complicated and tiring, and many people cannot bear it. The sesame juice and ginseng slices are not cooked with fireworks, so it does not constitute a taboo.

Jing Xi glanced at Caiyun with admiration and said, "You are very smart. I will give Guard Zhao a good future."

Caiyun was very happy when she heard it, but there was a funeral at home today, and she couldn't laugh, so she knelt down to thank her.

It was a busy day today, so Jing Xi didn't delay Meng Wanzhou for long. She told her to take care of herself and let them go back.

Meng Wanzhou returned to the mourning hall and looked at Mrs. Meng's coffin, tears falling again.

There is no evidence at all for what Yin Wenxiu did. She just sent someone to explain the method in front of Meng Wanqiu, and Meng Wanqiu used those strategies himself.

As for the death of Aunt Liu, Yin Wenxiu used the same method to instigate another aunt in the family temple who had been punished for many years to kill Aunt Liu and blame Mrs. Meng.

Even if they were confronted face to face, Yin Wenxiu would not be able to do anything to her if she denied them.

At most, she was an instigator of crime, but she was not an outright instigator, because from the beginning to the end, she never let anyone tell Meng Wanqiu and the aunt: Go kill someone, how to kill someone.

Therefore, the reporting officer could not do anything to Yin Wenxiu, and could only imprison him for a year and a half at most.

How can this be revenge for killing one's mother?

However, after the matter was investigated, everyone felt a lot clearer, at least they knew who the ghost behind it was.

After Mrs. Meng was laid to rest, Meng Wanqiu died "suddenly" without even a funeral. A thin coffin was carried out from the back door, and she was buried casually outside the city to find an out-of-the-way place.

Meng Wanzhou began her days of observing filial piety for her mother, never leaving the front door or taking another step forward.

Yin Wenxiu waited for Meng Wanzhou to be annulled by the royal family, and proudly took her maid to Fang County to accompany her husband.

It's a pity that Mu Yanheng no longer regards her as his wife.

He looked at her like a snake and a scorpion and avoided her as much as possible.

Yin Wenxiu felt that her fetal image was stable and she could serve her husband, but Mu Yanheng always avoided her and even refused to enter the backyard of the county government office on the pretext of being busy with official duties.

Knowing that Mu Yanheng did not touch the two maids given by Mrs. Mu, she felt a little relieved.

She has many means to deal with men, and she will definitely get along well with Mu Yanheng.

But no matter how many methods she has, she still needs to find talents.

Yin Wenxiu asked the maid to carry the food box, holding her slightly bulging belly with one hand and stroking her lower back with the other. It was obviously not that bulky, but it looked like she was about to give birth.

When she walked outside Mu Yanheng's study, she heard a woman's voice speaking inside, and her face darkened.

The maids are all in the backyard, and Mu Yanheng's study is in the front yard. Where did the girl come from?

Yin Wenxiu had a bad premonition and wanted to go into the study.

"Madam, please stay!" The young man Simo stretched out his hand to stop her.

Yin Wenxiu's face darkened, "I am bringing food to your husband, and you are stopping me?"

The young boy who had been working with her in the past had been sold by Mu Yanheng. Si Mo bought it later. He only listened to Mu Yanheng's words and was indifferent to her bribery.

Si Mo said: "Your Excellency is on official business and is analyzing the case. Please tell me not to let anyone disturb you!"

Yin Wenxiu's eyes sharpened, "Analyzing the case? No interruption? I heard the woman's voice, who are you trying to fool?"

With that said, he pushed Si Mo aside, opened the door violently, and rushed in.

I thought I would see red sleeves adding fragrance, or a lively scene, but...

Seeing several people in the room looking at her in surprise, she immediately calmed down the anger on her face and showed a gentle and approachable smile, "Are you busy?"

He put on an apologetic look again and said innocently: "Did I disturb you? I just saw that it was meal time, so I brought food to my husband."

His face changed so quickly that people thought he was seeing something wrong.

Mu Yanheng, the County Magistrate, the County Lieutenant, Dian Shi, the head catcher, and a woman all put aside their complicated gazes and looked at each other awkwardly.

All the officials from the county government were here, which was a surprise to Yin Wenxiu and caught her a little off guard.

The county magistrate's wife didn't let anyone announce her, didn't knock on the door, and suddenly barged in, leaving everyone stunned for a moment.

The county magistrate first coughed lightly and said: "Madam is really virtuous, so let's take our leave first."

"Yes, yes, it's time to have lunch." The county lieutenant and the captain also laughed and stood up, preparing to leave.

Mu Yanheng frowned slightly and raised his hand to indicate that they did not need to leave.

Then he said to Yin Wenxiu: "We have something important. Please prepare more food and have it delivered. We can talk while eating."

Yin Wenxiu knew that there had been a murder case in Fang County, and the deceased was a servant of the Protector of the Country. If it was not handled properly, Mu Yanheng's future might be stuck in the seventh rank, or even be sent to a remote and barren place.

Of course, she would not shame Mu Yanheng in front of so many people, and said softly: "Okay, then don't work too hard!"

As if unintentionally, he glanced at the only woman in the room, showed surprise, and asked: "Who is this?"

Mu Yanheng introduced: "This is Miss Mo Bai. She has provided us with very important clues. Moreover, she was an outstanding student in the eldest princess's medical training class. She studied martial arts in the women's college."

Mo Bai took a step forward and saluted in a neither humble nor overbearing manner: "Mo Bai has met Madam."

Luoluo is generous, advances and retreats in a measured manner, and his eyes are capable and wise.

Yin Wenxiu narrowed her eyes. She felt threatened by the words that she was an outstanding student in the eldest princess's medical training class.

The county magistrate explained: "Now the county government has hired Miss Mo as deputy secretary."

Dianshi is a miscellaneous official of the county magistrate, but he is "unofficial", that is, of no rank. He is an official in charge of arrests and prisons.

The deputy historian is even more unpopular. He is almost like a head catcher, but he only assists in solving cases, investigating cases, autopsies and other miscellaneous tasks.

Nowadays, women can also work out, but this is the first time I have heard of such a profession.

Yin Wenxiu smiled softly and said: "Miss Mo Bai is really admirable. She must be capable, otherwise she wouldn't be able to work with the arresters and government officials."

This is an allusion to Mo Bai, a woman who hangs out among men every day.
