Chapter 628: Retreating in Order to Advance, There Is No Defense
"Is this colorful yarn?" A person from the Criminal Department touched the material at the collar and said uncertainly.
"Let me take a look!" Another person from the Criminal Department took it and after pinching it carefully, he was also a little hesitant, "It looks like it!"
Because the colorful yarn is made of precious materials, few people can actually see and touch it.
"Why don't you go ask the adults to take a look?"
"Okay, I'll take it now!" The two people from the Criminal Department discussed it, and one of them took the clothes and walked inside. He walked to Wen Xichi in the corridor. Wen Xichi took it and pinched it carefully before clicking. After nodding their heads, it was confirmed that it was Qicaisha, and then the two of them whispered a few words, and the personnel from the Criminal Department returned to the courtyard gate.
He definitely raised the collar of the dress in his hand and said: "This dress uses a piece of colorful yarn material. The colorful yarn material is not something ordinary people can get. It used to be a offering. Only some aristocratic families in the capital can get it." The reward in the palace contains this kind of material!"
Many people have never seen the material of colorful gauze, but they have heard of it. After hearing the two officials from the Ministry of Punishment confirming the material of this collar with such certainty, the two women in the Xingguo Palace looked puzzled. Could it be true? He did this because he wanted to frame Miss Shao Wu's reputation.
If several things didn't collide, they wouldn't be so suspicious!
The locks that were popular three years ago, the obvious embroidery marks on the front of the belt, and the colorful yarn that can only be obtained by high-end families all indicate that someone may be deliberately promoting this matter.
"This... this could also be the eldest princess..." A woman couldn't help but stammered an explanation.
"Mommy, please be careful what you say. The eldest princess Ruian is the eldest princess of the royal family. It is not something you, a mother-in-law, can just testify against casually. If there is no real evidence, I'm afraid you won't even know how she died in the end!"
Yujie sneered and interrupted the mother-in-law.
The meaning behind the words made the mother-in-law purse her lips tightly, not daring to speak nonsense again.
Yu Jie's words are true. If she dares to say that there is no real evidence, the eldest princess has every right to deal with her. As a mother-in-law, her status is not enough for the wife to contradict the eldest princess for her.
"It's just a box sent up the mountain. You are so loud that you don't even hesitate to bring in Yuhui'an's master. It's just a box. It's enough for two people to send it here. But you also brought Yuhui'an's master. , this is something that will attract attention in the first place, let alone traveling with the adults from the Ministry of Punishment, it’s hard to avoid people watching!”
Yujie shouted back at the woman, raised her eyes and looked at the crowd around her, with a faint smile on her face, but her tone was a little more sarcastic.
With all the things put together, it’s impossible to avoid suspicion of Duke Xingguo’s government!
Some people also remembered that Yu Jie mentioned that the eldest lady in Xingguo Duke's Mansion didn't seem to be getting along well with Miss Shao Wu. Then they thought about the rumors all over the capital that something happened to Miss Fifth before, and it seemed to be related to this eldest lady. Listen to that. Do you want to kill the fifth lady? This is a plan that fails and then succeeds. Do you want to ruin the reputation of the fifth lady?
"No, this... this is just a coincidence. The reason why I brought the two masters up here was because I was afraid that the fifth lady would not know about this matter, so I asked the two masters to go up the mountain to bear witness!" Another woman knotted. Baba explained.
"It's just a box. Could it be that you know that the contents of this box will harm your reputation, so you specially asked the master of Yu Hui'an to come and witness it? To force our lady to admit this?" Yu Jie asked with a sneer, He took a few steps forward and approached the mother-in-law with a cold gaze.
The mother-in-law was startled, and she quickly stepped back, looking at the woman beside her. The woman with her mouth tightly pursed was still scared for a while, and she didn't dare to say anything. Seeing the look of the woman asking for help, she thought for a moment. She lowered her head. What she said before was over, and she didn't dare to say anything nonsense at this time.
"I...how could we know..." the mother-in-law could only explain to save herself.
"You don't know why we must force our young lady to admit this box. Obviously we have never seen this box. Even though this box was indeed found in the quiet room, there is still nothing left by the young lady in the quiet room. We, the fifth lady, have not checked the sundries in the corner. This quiet room was originally borrowed by our fifth lady, so there is no way we could move all the eldest lady’s things out of the way!”
Yujie understands the unforgiving way.
The mother-in-law became more and more panicked. She was sweating profusely because of Yu Jie. She no longer looked as arrogant and domineering as she did when she first sent things in. She felt a chill in her vest.
"me……"
"Our young lady tells you to take everything back. Regarding our sisters, we should focus on harmony. What happened before was an accident, and what is happening now is also an accident. We also ask the two nuns to bring the message to the eldest lady. Our fifth lady Now I am taking refuge in Huaguang Temple, and I just want to pray for the crown prince and the princess in peace."
Qu Le had just gone in once, and when he appeared in front of everyone again, he was much gentler and less aggressive than before. Although he looked angry, he seemed to be compromising, even though he was very unwilling to do so!
Qu Le came over and said to the two officers from the Criminal Department: "Our lady asked the slave to thank the two adults. Let's forget about today's matter... don't pursue it any further!"
The last voice was almost inaudible, but those who listened quietly to her speech still heard it clearly. Seeing that the girl was obviously aggrieved and angry, but had to lower her head, thinking about what she mentioned before, Shao Xia of Yuhui Temple What happened to the fifth lady was an accident, and what happened now was also an accident, so no one can be blamed, let alone Miss Shao, who had something to do with these accidents!
It seems that Miss Shao's character is not only not as good as the rumors outside, but may even be vicious. Although the current matter is not a big deal, it is related to the woman's reputation. If the matter of Yu Hui'an is Either it was an accident, or it was going to kill Miss Shao Wu!
All these things, connected in series, and the tears of compromise in the corners of the eyes of the maid in front of them, made everyone onlookers feel that Miss Shao of the Xingguo Palace was really not a good person. Not a good one to say.
People started talking in small groups, and a lot of things that happened a long time ago were revealed. At that time, Miss Shao's talent and intelligence made people feel that she had ulterior motives.
The two women in the Xingguo Duke's Mansion turned pale when they heard this. They were all panicked and didn't know how to end it!
Since Shao Wanru said he would not pursue the case, the two men from the Punishment Department threw the clothes into the box again, and then pushed the box in front of the two women from the Xingguo Duke's Mansion as a matter of course, and then retreated to the yard again, and then retreated to the Behind Wen Xichi.
At this time, the two women no longer dared to give birth to any enchanting children, so they ran away in despair carrying the box. The nun in Yuhui Temple looked at the pilgrims who were talking about each other, and could not stay any longer, so she followed the two The mother-in-law went down the mountain together.
There was no more excitement to join in, and the onlookers also left. However, even after exiting, everyone was still talking about it. This matter was no better than what happened at Yu Hui'an before. At that time, everyone said it was an accident, but there must be no evidence. The true proof is that Duke Xingguo intervened.
As for the mutual evasion between the Yong-Kangbo Mansion and the Xingguo Mansion, it can also be seen as an accident and no one dared to take responsibility.
But what happened today was actually presented in front of everyone. Judging from the two women's speechless expressions later, they knew that someone had indeed framed Miss Shao Wu for this matter.
Thinking about the life experience of this fifth lady, I feel more and more pitiful that this fifth lady is actually oppressed to this point by the eldest lady of the Xingguo Palace. She is the most beautiful woman in the capital, and she has unparalleled talent. Such a character , whoever marries such a eldest lady will definitely have a restless family.
There were many people watching, and they said all sorts of things, and some even got more and more outrageous. People from all religions and nine streams came up the mountain to worship Buddha, and not just like Yuhui Temple, most of them were women. They might say this later. It’s getting worse and worse…
Wen Xichi watched the whole thing quietly. His handsome eyebrows were slightly furrowed as he looked around the whole place. Seeing that all the onlookers had left, he walked out with his hands behind his back. He actually didn't like this kind of scheming person. Woman, regardless of whether Shao Wanru was framed by the Xingguo Palace or not, it is certain that Shao Wanru is very scheming.
This reminded him of his cousin and made him feel very uncomfortable.
The two members of the Criminal Department looked at Wen Xichi's face, did not dare to say a word, and followed him away.
After everyone left, Yujie and Qule closed the courtyard door and went to the main room.
Shao Wanru stood at the window of the main room. The fallen window screen blocked the view outside, but it allowed her to see the scene outside clearly.
"Miss, they're all gone!" Qu Le said with a smile, the grievance and anger on his face were gone.
Shao Wanru's eyes slowly retracted and he smiled slightly, "Yujie, you will go to the monks at Huaguang Temple and ask for some scriptures later, and then tell me that I will copy the scriptures and meditate."
One thing after another happened, even if Shao Yanru wanted to stay hidden behind the scenes, she would pull her out. Shao Yanru has always been cunning, and many things have her shadow, but when she checks, she always finds others. Just like what happened just now, if we really want to investigate, Shao Wanru can confirm that the person found in the end is either Mrs. Xingguo or Mrs. Xingguo, and Shao Yanru must be flawless!
But now, Qu Le's words go straight to the point. The most important thing is that Shao Wanru has not been investigated anymore. Since there is no further investigation, there are some things that Shao Yanru cannot do even if he wants to prove her innocence.
Now it's Shao Yanru who's going to be in trouble. If you're not afraid of her being in trouble, just be afraid that she won't be in trouble!
"Qu Le, let's thank the guests behind closed doors, and tell the monks in the temple that I am still recovering from my injuries. I will spend the rest of the time copying scriptures and praying for my parents, and I have no intention of doing anything else! Let them help stop the guests!"
There was such a big fuss, it’s impossible that the monks in Huaguang Temple didn’t know about it...
