"Father, just go around them. If there are suddenly so many people missing from the house, people may be suspicious!" At this time, Beitang Yun, who had been silent all the time, suddenly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
"Ayun, you are weak, get up first!" Bei Tangxun glanced at Bei Tangyun, and his voice became gentler.
Bei Tangyun stood up obediently, with a timid look on her face. She glanced at Bei Tangxun cautiously, bit her lips and said, "Father, did my daughter say something wrong?"
"Ayun, you are pure and kind-hearted, and you didn't say anything wrong, but if you don't stop these people's mouths, the entire Beitang Mansion will be implicated. Therefore, for the sake of the entire Beitang Mansion, you must not be soft-hearted at all!" Bei Tang Mansion!
Tang Xun rarely had the patience to educate Bei Tang Yun. He once didn't pay much attention to this daughter, but now he felt that Bei Tang Yun was indeed very smart and worthy of training.
There was a look of worry on Bei Tangyun's delicate little face. She lowered her head. When she was about to leave, she had to look back at the girls and women kneeling on the ground. She couldn't bear it, but she finally returned to her seat.
good.
All the maids and ladies were moved for a while: The fifth young lady is really a kind-hearted master! It would be great if the master and the second young lady were also so kind-hearted!
Beitang Feng just shook his head secretly and sighed: This situation seems to be irreversible!
Bei Tangjin just slowly curved the corners of his mouth.
Bei Tangyun really doesn't miss any opportunity to win people's hearts! If these people are saved by crying and begging, they will definitely be grateful to her!
"Why don't you explain it quickly! Do you want to put them all in water prison?" Beitang Xun scolded him coldly again.
The girls and women felt a chill in their hearts. The master is really more ruthless than the old lady! Is the water prison something ordinary people can endure? If they were soaked to death in the water prison, they might as well hit the wall and die!
Beitang Feng was shocked. It seemed that his father was really angry and wanted to imprison the person in a water prison and soak him to death!
Bei Tangjin just lowered his eyebrows.
The Beitang Mansion also had a dungeon built by itself. This dungeon was originally used to handle some important ministers for His Majesty in private. However, since the fall of the Beitang Mansion, this dungeon has been used to imprison some disobedient slaves.
The water prison that Xun is talking about is a pool filled with ice water. There is a mechanism on the pool that can freely raise and lower the height of the water. If someone is punished, the person is tied up and put into the water prison so that he cannot move.
The height of the water is no more than the waist. In this way, even a tough person can't stand the blisters and will be tempted by anything. Especially if you let the person taste the feeling of being on the verge of death, and then lower the height of the water, the effect will be even better.
Astonishingly.
Everyone has the desire to survive. Unless they are top secret guards, ordinary people cannot bear it.
The dungeon was dark and damp, and even entering it in summer would make you feel chilly, let alone soaking in it in the middle of winter.
If these people don't want to suffer, they will still confess.
Sure enough, several maids were trembling and said: "Master, it's Madam, it's Madam..."
"What's wrong, madam?" Bei Tangxun frowned. This didn't seem to be the result he wanted!
Another maid immediately added: "It was Madam who came to Fourth Yiniang and said...said..." The maid hesitated and didn't know how to describe it. Before she could even finish her sentence, she heard Wang Yuanxiang's scolding voice and said, "It's just like that."
Nonsense, how could I find Fourth Yiniang?"
The maid was originally very timid, but when Wang Yuanxiang scolded her so loudly, she shrank her neck in fright and did not dare to speak any more.
Bei Tangjin smiled and said, "Why is mother so anxious? She hasn't said anything yet. Mother doesn't have to deny it in such a hurry."
Wang Yuanxiang's face turned pale. The girl had indeed not said anything substantial just now. Her extreme behavior was clearly a sign of guilty conscience.
"Sit there and listen, don't interrupt!" Bei Tangxun glanced at Wang Yuanxiang with sharp eyes and said in a cold voice.
Wang Yuanxiang immediately shut up and did not dare to say any more, secretly thinking about how to shut up these people.
"Keep going!" Beitang Xun turned to the maid who had finished speaking halfway and said.
The maid broke into a cold sweat and hesitated: "It was Madam who came to Yuancui Pavilion the day before yesterday to tell Fourth Yiniang... She said that if the Eighth Miss' injury was used to drag the Second Miss into trouble and make her notorious, then
The fourth aunt was unwilling to make up for her loss of one thousand taels of silver, but the madam threatened her to report the loss of money to the old lady, so she had no choice but to do it!"
"That's nonsense! Miss Eight is the biological daughter of Fourth Aunt. How could she ruin her daughter's appearance for a thousand taels of silver? You girl, don't say the wrong thing!" Wang Yuanxiang stared at the maid, her eyes full of confusion.
threaten!
What a desperate girl, isn't she afraid that her family will be implicated?
However, Wang Yuanxiang really misjudged this girl. She kowtowed to the ground desperately and said: "Master, my life is about to be lost. How dare you talk nonsense? The reason why Fourth Yiniang finally agreed to Madam is because Madam promised
The eighth lady’s appearance can be restored with the ointment I got from the second lady, so I felt confident and bold enough to do it!”
Bei Tangxun pursed his lips tightly, moved, glanced at Wang Yuanxiang with extremely cold eyes, and said, "Is she telling the truth?"
Seeing that something was not going well, Wang Yuanxiang immediately knelt down and said, "Master, this girl must have been bribed and deliberately provoked. I have always loved and cared for Ajin as my own daughter. How could I ruin her reputation?"
This girl must have been bewitched by someone! Master!"
"Yes, father, there must be someone who is obstructing what happened today. One moment it was my sister who was framed, and another moment it was my mother. This shows that what happened today is not trivial! Father, these girls must have been deceived by others. Their words cannot be believed.
Ah!" Seeing that things had developed to this extent, Beitang Feng had an idea and quickly placed the culprit on someone outside Beitang Mansion!
In fact, even if Bei Tangxun discovered something, he would not be willing to admit that his family was at odds with each other and would rather believe that someone was deliberately instigating it. Therefore, in this way, his mother would be fine.
Even if you miscalculate once, there won't be much loss.
Bei Tangjin looked at Wang Yuanxiang, who had his head hanging down and his hairpin a little messy. Then he looked at Beitang Feng, who had a determined look on his face, and smiled slightly.
This younger brother of hers is really better than his predecessor! She had just used someone to secretly instigate Beitang Xun to interrogate these people, and Beitang Feng used this trick to get his mother off the hook. He was indeed smart!
This younger brother of hers is really great! Should she be happy that her hard work has not been in vain and that her younger brother can have a fight with her?
