Chapter 223 Reversal
"Kowtow to some adults."

Compared to Xiangniang who looked restless, Ren Sanniang was unexpectedly much calmer.

She bowed a big gift, and knelt there quietly waiting to ask questions.

When Mrs. Wu saw Xiangniang, her eyes turned red, and she reached out to hit her, "You rotten vixen! Our master treats you so well, you actually did such a thing!!"

But before the hand dropped, it was abruptly stopped by the cold eyes from above.

"Suspicion is not conviction." Qiu Bai shifted his gaze to Ren Sanniang, and continued to ask, "Master Wu was in Chunhualou on the day the accident happened?"

"Yes."

Ren Sanniang closed her eyes, looked at Xiangniang, who seemed to be tearing up from the side, and finally spoke out before she said, "The arsenic, it was indeed me who poured it..."

"I made it!"

Xiang Niang, who was always quiet and gentle in the past, was so violent for the first time, "My lord, I planted the arsenic! Master Wu was drinking tea in my room that day!"

"I've always hated him! My family broke up because of him! Sanniang didn't have a reason to kill someone, but I did!!"

"It really is you!" Mrs. Wu's excited hands trembled a little, "My lords, this vixen finally confessed with her own mouth!"

Lin Lang frowned and glanced at the white jade bowl. Just as she was about to get up, she heard Qiu Bai's calm and steady voice: "Is there anything else the Wu family wants to say?"

Master Xi cast a puzzled look.

At this point, the evidence is conclusive, and it stands to reason that the prisoner's plea is almost done, but the purpose of this lord's extravagance is...

"I have!"

Master Wu's younger sister suddenly raised her head, pointing to the side with Dan Kou's hand, "Sister-in-law, you must have planted the arsenic!"

As soon as these words came out, all four were shocked.

Except for the two flower girls who were stunned, Mrs. Wu's shoulders were stiff.

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

She stretched out her hand to pull the other person's hair, and cried, "I knew you were upset and kind! You are trying to kill me, master is my husband, how could I hurt my husband!"

Lady Wu staggered from being dragged, and her anger also rose.

"You have been in the door for many years and only gave birth to a daughter. You have always been afraid that my brother will abandon you! Who knows what you think?"

Mrs. Wu was scratched back, covering her face as if her eyes were about to burst into flames, "There is no evidence, are you trying to frame me by saying this?"

"The ginseng soup that my brother drinks every day is stewed by the kitchen aunt, and only your personal maid has been in during the period!" Looking at the stunned sister-in-law, Wu Niangzi snorted coldly.

"After my brother died, I became suspicious! Today I used this flower girl as an excuse to trick you into coming to court. Your personal maid has also been recruited, and the aunt from the kitchen has also brought it today!"

After she finished speaking, she kowtowed heavily, "Please, my lord, make the decision, so that my brother Quanxia will know!"

"You, you..." Mrs. Wu could not wait to pounce on her and drink her blood and eat her flesh.

The two witnesses were quickly brought up by the master and confronted one by one.

"My lord, there should be no problem."

Although things have reversed, it is almost time to end here.

Master Xi had just finished saluting with his hands tied together, when he heard the young man's cold voice again, "It's really all right."

He turned to the girl who was wrapped in his cloak and shrunk like a ball, and the coldness faded from his voice.

"Linlang."

The girl understood immediately, got up and stepped forward, taking the jade bowl presented on a tray.

It was only then that the members of the Wu family noticed the girl who had been silent all this time.

"When Master Wu died, he was tense and curled up into a ball, right?"
