"Clang-clang-clang-"

The gong sounded at the third watch. In the silent night, the gong was so penetrating that the heartbeats of the servants kneeling in the hall shook with the sound of the gong. .

The mama who was in charge of purchasing in the inner courtyard and the wives who were in charge of the small Buddhist hall were all brought in.

"Master Shizi!" Aunt Tian, ​​who was in charge of the purchase, carefully looked at the piece of incense on the ground and called Qu Road, "This servant doesn't know anything. The candles, incense and paper money used in the Little Buddha Hall have been used for decades. It was bought from the old-fashioned Li family shop in the city, Shizi, go and ask this mansion, no one knows this!" She had the courage to do anything in the incense candle! At most, she just went to the Li family shop to get some oil and water.

The three old women who were in charge of guarding and cleaning the small Buddhist hall on weekdays kowtowed repeatedly and said, "Master Shizi, slaves and servants don't know anything!" Knowing from a cup of tea that there was a problem with the incense sticks ordered in the Buddhist hall, the old woman We still feel like we are dreaming until now, how is this possible? !

One of the brown-clothed old women said boldly, "Master Shizi, there are tablets of the old prince, the old prince, the second prince, and the first prince in the Buddhist hall. The slaves are conscientious and conscientious every day, and they dare not leave for a moment. of."

The other two old women also nodded their heads with concern. If there is an emergency for the masters' tablets, giving them a hundred heads would not be enough for the prince and the prince.

Although the errand of this small Buddhist hall was easy, they did not dare to be careless for a moment.

Xiao Yi smiled coldly, "That is, you don't know there is something wrong with this fragrance?"

Madam Tian and those wives were so frightened that they were so scared that they loudly defended themselves: "Master Shizi, slaves really don't know."

Xiao Yi was too lazy to talk nonsense, his icy eyes fell on them, and he ordered: "If that's the case, what's the use of keeping you guys. Drag it down and kill it!"

Cane? ! Mammy Tian and the women almost didn't collapse, so they hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Master Shizi, please spare your life!" !

As soon as Xiao Yi gave the order, there were immediately a few thick-armed and round-waisted women who took a few steps forward, saying "offended"...

"Wait a minute!"

At this time, an old and peaceful male voice suddenly spoke out, and everyone subconsciously followed the sound.

Lin Jingchen said solemnly, "Ayi, I want to ask them a few questions."

Madam Tian's eyes suddenly lit up. The only person in the palace who could persuade the prince was the prince, but the prince was seriously ill. At this time, the only one who could save them was Mrs. Lin.

"Grandpa, spare your life!" They were begging for mercy at Lin Jingchen again, thinking about the hearts of the doctors and parents. If Grandpa Lin was willing to help and persuade Shizi, then they would be saved!

Seeing this, Xiao Yi frowned and glanced at them impatiently.

Since this ring of incense is poisonous, either there is a problem with the purchase, or it was secretly replaced in the small Buddhist hall. These two reasons cannot escape. These slaves are definitely not ignorant of this, but they are deliberately hiding it for fear of being punished and implicated.

He didn't want to waste time with a few minions.

If you want to say it, say it, if you don't want to say it, it's the stick.

However, Mrs. Lin was willing to give them another chance, but Xiao Yi did not stop him and bowed respectfully: "Grandfather, please do it!"

Lin Jingchen turned to look at the old ladies and asked, "In the past twenty days, who have been to the Little Buddha Hall?"

The old women looked at each other, and the word "killed by a stick" seemed to be lingering in their ears. They all knew that if there was no reason for the trial of Shizi today, their little lives would definitely be in danger.

Thinking of this, the most daring old woman in brown clothes immediately replied honestly: "Returning to the old man, except for the concubine Shizi who will go to the Buddhist hall every few days to offer incense, on the first and fifteenth day of the new year, Concubine Wei, the third master, the second The madam, the third madam, and several girls and sons also often go to the Buddhist hall to offer incense, by the way, on the fifth day of this month, the prince also went there after receiving the good news sent by the prince..."

As the old woman in brown said, she thought to herself: Could it be that Mrs. Lin suspected that someone had secretly changed the ring incense while he was going to the Buddhist hall to offer incense?

If you think about it, it's not impossible.

On weekdays, after the masters finished offering the incense, they just glanced roughly to see if anything fell, or knocked over the incense candle or something... At a glance, they saw that there was nothing unusual in the Buddhist hall, and they also put it away. The door of the temple was closed.

Could it be that it was really the work of a certain master in the palace?

The women looked at each other in dismay, not daring to think about it any longer.

They all knelt there trembling, and now, why are they still thinking about so much, it is the key to save their own lives.

Lin Jingchen stroked his beard while thinking: Yue'er should have been poisoned for more than half a month, and King Zhennan only went to the Small Buddha Hall once on the fifth day of the fifth day of the new year. king.

As for the others...

After thinking about it, Lin Jingchen asked, "Do you have a registered name and date?"

The old women looked at each other again, the people coming and going in this Buddhist hall didn't take things from the warehouse, so how could they register it on purpose!

They squeezed their brains to recall for a while, and a woman in green clothes said cautiously: "Back to the old man's words, although the slaves have not recorded them, but in the past half month, the slaves and slaves still remember which days have been there. The slaves only know a few. It's better to have the slaves dictate each word, which girl can help me write it down?"

Xiao Yi made a gesture to Baihui, and Baihui took the old lady in Tsing Yi to the west room next door. The rest of the people secretly breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads with their cuffs.

If you can escape this catastrophe, then you should go to the temple to worship!

What happened next had nothing to do with Tian Ma, so she was temporarily taken out to look after her, while the other two women knelt down and stood by.

After they waited anxiously for half a cup of tea, they saw Baihui and the old lady in Tsing Yi come out of the Xishao room in tandem. Baihui respectfully presented the list to Lin Jingchen, and Xiao Yi also came over. Look at the list with Lin Jingchen.

Lin Jingchen quickly scanned the list and asked, "Which day did you change this ring of incense?"

"The first day of this month!" The old woman in Tsing Yi replied quickly, "At that time, the slave and the maid were exchanged together."

The other woman in blue hurriedly nodded in agreement.

Lin Jingchen took the pen and scratched out several names, such as Xiao Luan, Xiao Che, Qiu Shi, Xin Shi and others who went to the Buddhist hall before the first day of the month and after the fifth day of the month. It was excluded first, and the rest were the names of the second young master Xiao Luan and several girls.

After Xiao Yi and Lin Jingchen scanned the list, their eyes fell on Xiao Ni's name. The others have only visited the Buddhist hall once in the past half month, but Xiao Ni has gone twice...

Xiao Yi squinted slightly, the stinky girl had almost nothing to do with him. Even when he was not in Luoyue City, Nangong Yue would tell him some household chores in the letter. The stinky girl has a bad relationship. The stinky girl even mentioned that it is not easy for Xiao Ni to be a girl. She intends to take it with her and teach her well... Could it be her?

Lin Jingchen stroked his beard and asked again, "I see that Miss Xiao San often goes to the Buddhist temple. Does she usually do this?"

The old ladies were stunned for a while, thinking: Could it be that Mrs. Lin suspects it is the third girl?

"Go back to the old man," the old woman in Tsing Yi replied respectfully, "the third girl is filial, and she often goes to the Buddhist hall to offer incense to the old prince and the second master, at least two or three times a month."

"Yeah." The brown-robed woman nodded and said in agreement, "The three girls are filial and kind to the servants. Last time, I asked Miss Sangrou to share some snacks for the servants." Among the girls, Xiao Fei is arrogant and unreasonable, Xiao Rongying is charming, and Xiao Ni has a good temperament and is very kind to the people below.

Xiao Yi frowned and asked, "Three girls distributed your snacks? What kind of snacks did she use?"

Before the old lady in Tsing Yi had time to think about it, she blurted out intuitively, "A food box."

The other two women were thinking of something, and their faces were a little ugly. Could it be that...

Xiao Yi's voice became a little colder again, and a flash of grace flashed in his eyes: "Every time she goes to the Buddhist temple, she will bring a food box? What about other people? Do other people carry baskets or food boxes?" If the poisonous person replaces the ring incense in the Buddhist hall by taking the opportunity of going to the Buddhist hall to offer incense, then it is impossible for him to go to the Buddhist hall empty-handed.

The three old ladies looked at each other again, whispered to each other, and followed the old lady in brown clothes and replied: "Return to Shizi, every time the three girls go to the Buddhist hall, they will bring some offerings there. , the eldest girl, and the second lady sometimes bring a basket, a food box, etc."

Speaking of which, the old lady in brown clothes was already trembling and trembling. After hearing this question from the eldest son, is it really the three girls who have always been kind and kind?

The women swallowed their saliva, their hearts lifted up again, and they knelt there with their eyes down.

Xiao Ni! Xiao Yi's face was as deep as water, his stinky girl was good-natured, and he treated the whole of the palace like family, but he didn't expect to raise a white-eyed wolf out of nothing!

"come..."

He was about to order someone to bring Xiao Ni, when a little maid in a blue-blue robe trotted towards the main room, and after crossing the threshold, stepped forward and said, "Master Shizi, old man, the second lady and the third girl Come and ask to see the prince, now the three girls are kneeling outside the yard..."

The little girl's expression was a little subtle. The second lady brought the third girl to Bixiaotang at this time, and when she came, the third girl knelt at the entrance of the yard, which made people have to think more.

This little maid is not quite sure in her heart, but the three women kneeling in the main room are like mirrors - they are really three girls!

Xiao Yi's face was extremely ugly, gloomy and cold, and his body once again released a fierce murderous aura.

For a time, the women and maids in the main room didn't even dare to breathe.

The wrath of the Son of Heaven caused millions of floating corpses and bloodshed for thousands of miles. With their grandfather's style on the battlefield, that's not much difference!

Xiao Yi said slowly: "Let her in!" His face was as cold as frost, and every word was as cold as ice slag.

The little maid who came to report was trembling and trembling just listening to it, and after she responded, she hurried out.

And several women in the main room were dragged down. They were in charge of the small Buddha hall, but people didn't know that the incense was changed. This poisonous incense was slightly different from the original one. Even burning it The degree is different, if they are more cautious, it is impossible not to find out.

It is not an exaggeration to kill Xiao Yi with a stick, but Lin Jingchen thought that Nangong Yue was persuaded to stop him in the name of Jifu, so he only dragged him down to beat fifty boards and dismissed the errand. Of course, the wives were the only ones who complied with their promises. Although they were going to be beaten, they managed to save their lives in a dangerous and dangerous way, and they could only be happy.

After a while, the little girl came with Qiu Shi and Xiao Ni. The faces of the mother and daughter were extremely ugly, especially Xiao Ni, who looked like a remnant flower swaying in the wind and rain, almost dying. now...

Xiao Ni's demeanor and expression are an answer.

Baihui's heart sank, and Concubine Shizi admired the third girl quite a bit, saying that her temperament was gentle yet fierce, how could the third girl do such a sinister thing? !

In this strange, heavy and delicate atmosphere, the Qiu family walked side by side into the hall, Xiao Ni didn't dare to look at Xiao Yi at all, and knelt directly on the cold hard ground with a plop.

Mrs. Qiu stood aside and met Xiao Yi's cold eyes.

Speaking of which, it was the first time for Mrs. Qiu to come to Bixiao Hall, and the first time she came to Nangong Yue's courtyard, but it was under such circumstances.

Since Mr. Xiao's death, Mr. Qiu has always been cautious in his words and deeds in the palace, and only hopes to raise a pair of children. Her children have been sensible since childhood, and she has always been very comforting, but she didn't want her daughter to have such a disaster!

"My own grandfather, the eldest son." Qiu Shi was blessed to greet him, and then said astringently, "Sister Ni has something to say..."

Up to this moment, Mrs. Qiu still felt a little like a dream. Just now, under her own pressure, her daughter told the truth about that girl Gu...

The more Qiu listened, the more frightened he became. In the end, the whole person seemed to be immersed in ice water!

The daughter clearly fell into the other party's trap, and the other party's every step was carefully planned, so that the daughter fell into it like drinking poison to quench her thirst...

Qiu's heart weighed a mountain, and her heart was numb. She felt sorry for her daughter, but she also knew that the other party was not good, and her daughter seemed to be addicted to that girl's medicine. I am afraid that the demand will become stronger and stronger in the future. The consequences are unimaginable... Besides, if the daughter has done such a wrong thing, if the prince wants to investigate, I'm afraid he won't be able to hide it.

Thinking, the bottom of Qiu's throat came up with a bit of bitterness. After all, after all, she was negligent and ignored her daughter's abnormality during this period of time. She also blamed herself, a mother, for not disciplining her daughter well and letting her go. The daughter knew nothing about the secrets in the back house, so she was reduced to where she is today.

It's useless to escape, they always have to give the prince and the prince an explanation!

So, Mr. Qiu brought Xiao Ni here.

Even if this test is not easy, as a mother, she always has to accompany her daughter to get through it!

I just hope that for the sake of their willingness to confess, Shizi will leave a way out for his daughter and the second room.

Qiu shi looked down at Xiao Ni who was kneeling on the ground, met her helpless eyes, and nodded slightly at her.

As if she had gained strength from it, Xiao Ni gathered up her courage to look at Xiao Yi and said, "Brother, I'm sorry, I replaced the incense in the Buddhist hall..."

Her voice was getting softer, but she still gritted her teeth and said, "It was a girl Gu who forced me to do this."

The first time I met Miss Gu in the Huanxi Pavilion was because the other party "approached" her with ulterior motives, but on the night of the New Year's Eve, I was so foolish as to take the medicine given by a stranger... Wrong, wrong step by step, and then fell into a quagmire, the more you struggle, the deeper you sink...

to make such a monstrous mistake.

Xiao Yi stared at Xiao Ni fiercely, his eyes were like a lone wolf staring at his prey, as if he was about to bite at any time, and his fierceness was daunting.

Gu girl? ! Baihui raised her eyebrows in surprise and couldn't help thinking of a person.

After getting Xiao Yi's permission, Baihui asked, "Could it be that girl Gu from Huanxi Pavilion?"

Xiao Ni nodded slightly.

Baihui hurriedly reported to Xiao Yi what happened in Huanxi Pavilion. She only knew that Miss Gu had "saved" Xiao Ni from an asthma attack, but how did Miss Gu get in touch with Xiao Ni later on? How to get Xiao Ni to do such a thing, Baihui doesn't know.

Xiao Yi looked at Xiao Ni again. Although he wished he could kill her with one knife, he still had a lot of questions to ask her.

Xiao Yi took a deep breath, managed to calm down a bit, and asked, "Xiao Ni, is this Huanxiang given to you by Miss Gu?"

He directly named Xiao Ni by name, apparently no longer regarded Xiao Ni as his younger sister.

Xiao Ni bit her whitish lower lip and nodded: "... After Miss Gu gave me the incense, she ordered me to put it in the small Buddha hall... She swears that the incense will not endanger it. Sister-in-law's life. That's why I..."

She also knew that her rhetoric was so weak, but she really had no other choice. When her "illness" broke out, it was really better to die, so she could not wait to cut one knife after another on her body...

At that moment, all she thought about was medicine!

She tried to get through it again and again, but she proved her weakness time and time again. For the "medicine", she was struggling to the death like a bug stuck on a spider's web, but she was just being stuck more and more tightly... …

Thinking of the difficulty of the "illness", Xiao Ni's face became even more ugly, and her heartbeat skipped a beat.

After taking a deep breath, Xiao Ni lowered her head and murmured: "...Brother, I regret it, I really regret it. So I went to the Buddhist hall on the seventh day of the first lunar month, originally wanting to change the ring incense. When I came back, I didn't expect the third aunt to come..." She was afraid of being discovered by Mrs. Xiao, so she did not dare to replace Huanxiang. After that, she wanted to go to the Buddhist temple again, but she was afraid that she would go too often and cause suspicion, so she thought I was planning to go again in a few days, but I didn't expect that my sister-in-law would be ill in just a few days, and her life was on the verge of death...

It's all her fault!

Xiao Ni's body trembled violently, and she felt a coldness rising in her heart...

Her pale lips trembled slightly, but no one noticed her abnormality, they just thought she was afraid, because of panic...

Xiao Yi pondered for a moment, then asked coldly, "Xiao Ni, where is that girl Gu?"

Xiao Ni hurriedly shook her head and said in a trembling voice, "I don't know, every time, Miss Gu came to me..."

Xiao Yi squinted his eyes, his eyes became even colder, and said, "If that's the case, then go and lead people out for me!"

His tone was imperative, and he didn't give Xiao Ni the slightest hint of doubt.

Xiao Ni's body trembled even more. Although she was afraid, she immediately responded.

Mrs. Qiu, who was beside her, couldn't hide her anxiety, and held the handkerchief tightly in her hands: This girl Gu doesn't know where she came from. Since she dared to take action against the princess, she might have her comrades on her side. Daughter rushes to do the bait, it is bound to be extremely dangerous, but now, only by using this method can the daughter atone for her sins and let the prince be relieved...

At this moment, Xiao Yi suddenly looked in the direction of the door curtain. In the next instant, he saw a sound of picking the curtain, followed by a cyan figure walking out of the inner room and walking towards Xiao Yi and Lin Jingchen.

"Grandfather, Yi, Yue'er is awake!" Han Qixia said with a happy smile on her little face.

Xiao Yi's eyes widened, and the people who could no longer care about the room, immediately strode away, picking up the curtain and rushing into the inner room. Lin Jingchen followed and entered the inner room.

Is your sister alright? ! Xiao Ni's heart was relieved, as if she had lost her support, her whole body collapsed softly, her breathing became rapid and heavy, her forehead was sweating like rain, and her body curled up like a shrimp...

"Three girls!" Sang Rou cried out, her face as pale as paper.
