Chapter 524: Returning Zhou Lihuai’s Innocence
Everyone looked at the maid and saw her kneeling on the ground with a shrunk, as thin as she could not imagine that she poisoned one person and forced one to hang herself.
He'er lay on the ground for a long time, and everyone who came to the hall was a little anxious.
"He'er, if it weren't for you, you'd explain clearly that this princess is here and will not let them wrong you!" Murong Lingyi frowned.
He'er let out a long sigh, then raised his head, straightened his back, and his expression changed from cowardly and panic to the current cold and coldness.
"It was me, I poisoned the wife of Wuchang. Just as your highness guessed, I put medicine into the princess's wine in order to save enough time for the crime. After coming out of Feifeng Palace, I ran into Chen Xuan stealing things, so I followed the boat and forced her to replace the poison pills in Zhou Tai's medicine box. I didn't want to kill her, so I gave her 100 taels of silver to shut up. But later, Your Highness began to investigate the case, denying that Zhou Tai was the murderer, and turned to find Chen Xuan, and I knew she had to die. I gave the princess the idea to kill Zhou Aunt Zhou in Ziyun Temple in order to get close to Chen Xuan. Unexpectedly, she threatened me and asked me for the money. I gave her another 100 taels of silver, and this time I bought her life."
He'er spoke calmly and calmly, and was ruthless, and was definitely not an ordinary little maid.
Yan Mu narrowed his eyes, "Why did you poison Mrs. Wuchang?"
"I'm the princess."
"You are for me?" Murong Lingyi widened her eyes, "I didn't ask you to kill her!"
"Mrs. Hou is making things difficult for the princess everywhere, and she also wants to marry a concubine to the prince. As the princess' maid, I really can't stand it, so I took this slap."
"You!" Murong Lingyi gritted her teeth, "You are confused!"
"Yes, I am confused, and I confess my guilt." He'er crawled on the ground.
Wuchang Hou, who had not spoken next to him, sighed at this moment, "It's a misfortune to the family."
As he said that, he stood up and gave a big gift to Yan Mu, "Seventh Prince, thank you for your hard work for the case of the cheap man these days."
After saying this, Wuchang Hou walked out and walked to the eldest princess. He stopped, paused, and gave another big gift.
"Mr. Marquis, you..."
"Princess, I think it's my husband, please agree to Changfeng and Princess and let us be purified."
The eldest princess frowned and breathed a deep breath, "If they agree, I will not stop it."
"Prince, do you want me to ask you too?" Wuchang Hou looked at Murong Lingyi.
Murong Lingyi's face turned red and she stamped her feet and said, "I don't agree with the separation!"
"you!"
"This county is the main husband!"
"Murong Lingyi, don't go too far!" Xue Changfeng shouted, "Your maid poisoned my mother for you. This is your fault. I will never stop you. I have already given you face to the eldest princess mansion!"
"I am the princess. If you want to divorce me, you have to endure it even if you grit your teeth!" Murong Lingyi said with his chin raised.
"you……"
"Okay, after all, everyone can't just laugh at my Marquis' Mansion." Marquis Wuchang glanced at the eldest princess, then shook his sleeves and walked outside.
The eldest princess held her forehead and saw that Murong Lingyi was about to make trouble, she shouted at her, "It's not embarrassing, go home with me!"
The murderer had already pleaded guilty, but Yan Mu did not pronounce the verdict in court, but only released Zhou Lihuai.
When Xue Changfeng left, he glared at Yan Mu first, and then thanked him.
Yan Mu looked at his awkward appearance and said funny: "Young Master Xue, we will definitely not be drunk or return."
Xue Changfeng hummed, "I'm afraid you'll sell me."
"It's not worth much."
"I'll drink with you again, I'll be a bad guy!" After saying that, he rushed away angrily.
At this time, the nun of Ziyun Temple took out a silver note from his arms and handed it to Yan Mu. Yan Mu opened it, and it was a denomination of one hundred taels on it.
"Is this Chen Xuan's?"
The nun nodded, "This morning, an old woman who often begs at the mountain gate gave me the gift. She said it was given to her by Mr. Chen, but the denomination was too large and she dared not spend it. She heard Mr. Chen hang himself, and she was even more scared. She hesitated for two days and gave me the silver bill."
When Mrs. Chen heard this, she hurriedly shouted: "Give me the silver bill quickly. Chen Xuan is my daughter, and hers is mine!"
Liu Yunxiang snorted coldly: "Don't you understand yet? Chen Xuan would rather give this silver note to someone she didn't know than to give it to you, because she was disappointed with you."
She asked He'er for 100 taels of money to buy her life, and she must have wanted to give it to her mother, but maybe she bumped into her gambling brother, or maybe she saw her mother's indifference towards her, which made her realize the true faces of her two relatives.
Mrs. Chen was stunned for a moment, not knowing to reflect on her, but cursed: "This little hoof, I raised her so big, and I have raised her ungrateful. Isn't it just that she asked her for money a few times, and she seemed to meet an enemy when she saw me. She deserved her life to be short, and God wants to accept her. In short, this money must be given to me, otherwise I will make trouble in front of your government!"
Yan Muleng sneered, "You still want to make trouble in front of the government gate. Can you leave the government?"
"What does it mean? I didn't break the law!"
"Chen Xuan steals things from the palace as a sale, which is a murderer. Although she is dead, you still force her to get the money even though you know that she steals things from the palace and sells them to you. That is to instigate her to steal things from the palace as accomplices. Although it will not be a death sentence, you will live in prison for the rest of your life!"
Hearing this, Mrs. Chen suddenly felt soft to the ground.
When the official officer took her to the prison, she shouted unwillingly: "Please give my son that one hundred taels, so you can't let the people in the gambling house chop his hand!"
Liu Yunxiang frowned. How could there be such a mother in the world? It's really disgusting!
Zhou Lihuai was released in the hall. When the official opened his handcuffs, he couldn't help but sobbed and cried.
"I thought...I thought I couldn't live anymore...I looked at the small window...I was desperate...I thought I could no longer see the blue sky and white clouds..."
Yan Mu walked out of the hall, walked to Zhou Lihuai, and looked at him disgustedly, "It's not embarrassing to be a big man crying like this."
"Lao Qi!" Zhou Lihuai hugged Yan Mu's legs.
Yan Mu hurriedly hid, but didn't dodge, so he kicked him, "How long has it been since you took a shower? It's so stinking!"
"Lao Qi, you will be my rebirth of parents in the future. I will remember you for the rest of your life!"
"No, no."
"Lao Qi, with you brother, I, Zhou Li, have the blessings I have cultivated for three lives and three lives!"
"You're still rubbing tears on me?"
"In the future, my people are yours, and my heart is yours. I will do whatever you ask me to do, and I will live my life..."
"Shut up!"
Zhou Lihuai's wife Pan ran in from outside the hall and was wiping her tears excitedly. When she saw this scene, her tears suddenly stopped. After a while, she covered her face with her hands, probably because she felt embarrassed and took two steps back.
Liu Yunxiang smiled dryly and said, "Their brothers have a good relationship."
Pan also laughed twice, "My husband doesn't do this on weekdays."
"Yeah?"
"Uh, you'll cry just drunk."
"Ha, I've seen it."
"ah?"
Zhou Lihuai was in prison and was frightened every day. He couldn't eat well and couldn't sleep well. Now he cried and used up all his remaining energy and fainted.
Pan: “…”
After sending Zhou Lihuai onto the carriage, Liu Yunxiang and Yan Mu walked home.
"When did you doubt Murong Lingyi's maid?" Liu Yunxiang asked.
"Mrs Chen was making trouble outside the Princess's Mansion, and Murong Lingyi was not guilty. I was thinking, who else could it be if she wasn't."
"It is true that we have always ignored the little maid next to her."
"but……"
"What?"
