Anshi didn't expect where Feng Yuheng was suspicious, so she continued to talk to herself: "During the heavy rain, the old lady's temper was not very good. She said she wanted to embroider Buddha statues to calm her mind, but she had to ask me to get some from my shop.
To embroider the money, I had no choice but to go get it. We crashed into a car when we came back, but fortunately the girl was generous and didn’t argue with us. Sister Jin Zhen took the initiative to go under the car to accompany us in the rain, wasn’t it? That’s all.
Forget it. Oh, yes, I heard that the girl made friends with sister Jin Zhen because of this, and she also came to our house twice, so we can't say we don't know each other."
While An was talking, Jin Zhen, who was kneeling on the ground to burn paper for the old lady, began to tremble involuntarily. Finally, she couldn't kneel down at all and plopped down on the ground.
Feng Zirui saw it and asked in confusion: "Auntie, what's wrong with you?"
Jin Zhen's upper and lower teeth were chattering and she couldn't say anything.
An's mind was so smart that she couldn't tell the truth. She said "Yeah" and then looked at Jin Zhen with deep inquiry in her eyes.
Cheng Junman also frowned, thought for a moment and said, "That's indeed what happened." After thinking about it again, he added, "It seems that the girl came here after the old lady was beaten by the mob and carried in from the door of the house.
."
Jin Zhen's face was pale, and anyone could see that she was obviously guilty. Feng Yuheng didn't ask any more questions, just patted An's shoulder and said softly: "It's okay, I'll take Third Sister back to rest for a while.
Rest, it will be time to prepare to go to court in another hour."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and left. Xiangrong pulled Zi Rui behind and followed, but she found that Jin Zhen, who was kneeling by the brazier, also staggered up and hurriedly chased after Feng Yuheng.
Xiangrong slowed down his pace and whispered to Zi Rui: "That aunt must have something to say to the second sister, let's walk slower."
They walked slowly, but Feng Yuheng didn't stop. Jin Zhen's legs were weak and she was chasing after him in a bit of embarrassment. It wasn't until Feng Yuheng was almost at the door of the house that she was able to catch Feng Yu.
Heng's sleeves were thrown away by the other party in disgust.
Fortunately, Feng Yuheng also stopped, turned around to look at her, and asked in confusion: "Aunt Jinzhen, why are you chasing after the county lord in such a hurry?"
Jin Zhen couldn't care about that many people. It was still late at night, and there were few people in the house. The concierge had all gone to sleep, leaving only one person to look after her. She gritted her teeth, knelt down in front of Feng Yuheng, and said:
"Second Miss, this servant is doing this all for you!"
Feng Yuheng looked at Jin Zhen, then at a strange maid following her, and suddenly asked: "Where is Manxi?"
Jin Zhen was stunned. She didn't expect Feng Yuheng to ask such a question despite her previous words. She was a little confused and didn't know how to answer.
Feng Yuheng did not wait for her answer, but turned her head and asked the maid: "Where is the maid Manxi who was with your aunt before?"
The maid was a little nervous. She twisted her fingers and said tremblingly: "Miss Manxi is...doing other things in the yard. Now she is not waiting on my aunt."
Feng Yuheng nodded and did not ask any more questions, but just said a statement: "Since you don't like Manxi, then let her serve at the county lord's mansion." After saying that, she gestured towards Wangchuan.
With a wink, Wangchuan turned around and walked in the direction of Ruyi Courtyard without saying a word.
Jin Zhen panicked and shouted: "Wait a minute!" Then she looked up at Feng Yuheng and begged: "Manxi is just a girl. She did something wrong and the servants dealt with her. The second lady will be punished."
...Don’t pursue it anymore, right?”
In fact, Feng Yuheng had already realized that she must have had a conflict with Man Xi when she first saw that Jin Zhen's personal maid had changed. However, she did not expect that Jin Zhen would have the guts to really treat Man Xi.
Let's start. Now it's a bit worrying to hear her talk about how to deal with it. Manxi was the first person in this house to follow her, and she was placed next to Jinzhen just to assist and monitor, but she didn't expect that she would become more and more...
The busier she became, the more ambitious Jin Zhen became. After repeated attempts, she failed to save Man Xi's life.
It was a pity, but Feng Yuheng knew that she had no position to pursue this matter openly. After all, Manxi was Jin Zhen's maid, and Jin Zhen, as her master, had the right to control the life and death of the servants in her yard.
But... the corners of her lips were raised slightly, and a trace of gloom covered them. She asked Jin Zhen: "What do you mean by kneeling to me?"
Jin Zhen knew that she couldn't hide this matter from Feng Yuheng. What's more, she didn't think that Feng Yuheng would stand up for the old lady, so even if she was afraid, it was just fear, not fear or despair.
She raised her head and said to Feng Yuheng: "To be honest with you, Miss Er, the death of the old lady... was caused by the slave. It was the woman whom Sister An just mentioned that she met on the road. It was she who gave the poison to the slave. She
He said that the old lady could no longer live. It was a serious crime to gather a crowd to ruin the second lady's reputation like that. But the second lady personally killed her because of her poor status. She must have been very depressed. If it was for the second lady's good, I should help the young lady.
Only when the old lady dies can the bad breath in the young lady's heart be released."
Jin Zhen told Feng Yuheng the cause of death of the old lady that she had always wanted to know in one breath, and then she gasped for breath, as if she had just run a few kilometers and her vitality was severely damaged.
Looking at Feng Yuheng again, her originally gloomy expression not only did not improve, but her eyes suddenly became sharp, and she stared at her as if she were looking at a dead person.
Jin Zhen's heart trembled, and she just knelt on the blue brick floor. Waves of cold ice came from her knees and spread to her heart.
"Second Miss." She called out tentatively, but found that the fierceness in Feng Yuheng's eyes was a little stronger.
Jin Zhen suddenly realized that she must have done something wrong. Feng Yuheng did not want the old lady to die, so she was doing a disservice. But why did Feng Yuheng not want the old lady to die? The girl tried so hard to encourage her to poison the old lady.
Madam, is there a conspiracy here?
Her mind was racing, but Feng Yuheng was not idle either. She had been thinking about the so-called "that girl", but in fact she didn't need to think about it. As early as Yao Xian told her that the old lady Feng was not from the Central Plains.
When she was poisoned, she immediately thought of Yu Qianyin. For Yu Qianyin, she, Feng Yuheng, not only ruined the marriage that Xuan Tianhua had personally agreed to, she even broke Zong Sui's hundreds of years of pride. As a Zong Sui
The princess, Yu Qianyin had reasons to hate her. But this did not mean that the woman could stretch her hands so long. She originally planned to support Old Mrs. Feng until she died, but she didn't expect that, accidentally, she would
Lost in the hands of Yu Qianyin.
Feng Yuheng let out bursts of sneer, which made Jin Zhen's scalp numb. She finally opened her mouth again, but heard her say: "The girl you mentioned, do you know what will happen to her now?"
Jin Zhen shook her head and said, "I don't know." But she became even more panicked.
Feng Yuheng told her: "That woman is an enemy spy. We arrested her from outside the city last night. Do you know how she came back?" She bent down slightly and looked at Jin Zhen intently, without waiting for the other party to answer.
, then added: "She was tied to the back of the horse with a rope and dragged back by the fast horse all the way. Her body was completely bruised. Do you know who initiated this torture? It was His Highness the Seventh Prince."
Jin Zhen couldn't kneel any longer and fell to the ground, her face looking ashen.
Feng Yuheng snorted coldly again, turned to Wangchuan and said: "Since there is no need to go to Ruyi Courtyard, let's go to the mourning hall again and tell the two ladies about the crime that Aunt Jinzhen voluntarily admitted.
Madam, please go ask the master for instructions and see how he should handle this matter."
Wangchuan nodded and walked quickly towards the mourning hall.
When Jin Zhen realized what Feng Yuheng said, she was so scared that she almost went crazy - "Second Miss! No! You can't tell the master!" She knew that Feng Jinyuan valued that mother very much. If Feng Jinyuan knew that the old lady was her,
He poisoned her to death, but he had to skin her! Jin Zhen grabbed Feng Yuheng's clothes tightly and begged: "Second Miss, this slave is really doing this for you. I beg Second Miss to spare this slave's life."
Bar!"
Feng Yuheng felt bored and threw Jin Zhen away and said coldly: "You knew the relationship between Manxi and me, and you should have thought of what would happen today when you dealt with her, not to mention that you also harmed the old lady.
.Let me tell you, the County Lord does not want the old lady to die at all. I originally planned to let her live in peace and stability. Also, you should never conspire with that Yu Qianyin. The County Lord has never liked it.
You think you are a person who makes your own decisions. You keep thinking about me, are you making decisions for the county master? Jinzhen, let me tell you, no master can keep someone like you!"
After she said this, she raised one foot and kicked Jin Zhen in the heart. She kicked Jin Zhen until she flew two feet away, and she vomited a mouthful of blood before stopping. But when she vomited blood
When she came out, she looked up and saw that Feng Yuheng had already led Huang Quan out of the house. Even Xiangrong and Zirui who walked over later didn't even look at her and followed her in a hurry.
Not long after, Wangchuan brought the Cheng sisters to the front yard, and heard Cheng Junman say as he walked: "Junmei, go to the pine garden to find the master, and tell him the cause and effect." Then he quickened his pace,
He walked to Jin Zhen in a few steps.
Jin Zhen looked up at her with blood on her lips, but saw a trace of ridicule and murderous intent in Cheng Junman's eyes. She was too frightened to look any further, so she simply lay down on the ground again and pretended to be dead.
But she didn't pretend for long, and soon there were footsteps again. Curious, she opened her eyes and saw Feng Jinyuan walking towards her, wearing a coat, and there were people around her.
Follow Cheng Junmei. Cheng Junmei moved her mouth, obviously telling him something.
Feng Jinyuan's face was as dark as the King of Hell. When he stood in front of Jin Zhen, he had heard everything. He looked down at his most beloved concubine and asked coldly: "Second Madam
Is everything you said true?"
Jin Zhen didn't know how to answer. She took the initiative to admit the matter to Feng Yuheng. Even if she denies it now, would it be useful?
She didn't answer, but Cheng Junman said again: "That Miss Yu did come to the house several times before the old lady passed away, always to find Aunt Jin Zhen. I heard that she was Zong Sui's work.
He has been captured by His Highness the Seventh Prince and returned to Beijing, and is being held in the palace."
These words were clearly reminding Feng Jinyuan that Jin Zhen was working with the enemies of Dashun. Why would such a person be left here?
As expected, Feng Jinyuan was very decisive this time. The death of the old lady and Yu Qianyin's harm to Dashun made him no longer have any sympathy for this concubine, and simply said: "Concubine Jinzhen, please serve me.
I have been pregnant for many years. For the sake of this friendship, I will not hand you over to the government. You... just be buried with the old lady!"
