All the ancestors in the capital begged me to be a substitute

The woman with the white velvet hairpin followed Chunjun into the room, walked straight to Lianqiao without looking sideways, raised her hand and slapped Lianqiao hard on the face!

"You bastard, how dare you live with others and conceive an evil seed. It's a family misfortune! If Xiaodie hadn't come to report to me just now, I would have been kept in the dark by you!"

Lian Qiao staggered from being beaten, her face turned pale with fright, and she plopped on the ground.

"Aunt, Lian'er is not...not pregnant..." She said tremblingly, tears falling down.

The woman raised her eyebrows.

"Still talking!" She raised her hand, wanting to hit again——
Suddenly, her wrist tightened, and she was grabbed by a light white hand.

The woman turned her eyes in amazement, and saw Shen Lingxi's clear and beautiful face with a cold look.With a pair of clear eyes, Zhengqing Lingling looked at her with a hint of displeasure.

Shen Lingxi didn't sympathize with Lianqiao being beaten, but just didn't like this kind of scene.

"Miss Shen..." The woman recognized Shen Lingxi at a glance, she let out a low voice, and hurriedly apologized, "My servant is blind, I didn't see the girl here, please forgive me."

Shen Lingxi raised her almond eyes slightly, and let go of her hand, "Who are you? How do you know me?"

The woman respected Fuli, "The servant is the steward who serves the grandma. The man is called Tuesday, and the masters are all called the slave. The maid came to the ancestor's body before, and the slave met the girl by the grandma's side."

The eldest grandma is Zheng Yurong.

The old ancestor on the side frowned and looked at Zhou's family, "Yurong has always been gentle, I didn't notice before, she has such a powerful steward by her side."

When Xie's mother saw her granddaughter being beaten, her expression was not very good.

"Old ancestor, you forgot that Cheng Shi, the son of the servant girl, was married to Liu Su, who served in the master's room, as you indicated."

"She is Liusu's sister-in-law, her name is Zhao Chunlan. She used to be in charge of the Zhuangzi. Later, the eldest grandma took charge of Zhongfu. There was no one around, so the servant recommended her to the eldest grandma."

Only then did the ancestors have a little impression.

Shen Lingxi had listened carefully to the woman's background, and asked, "Did Grandma ask you to come?"

"Exactly." Zhao Chunlan's face was very blushing, "Xiao Die, who was helping in the yard just now, came to tell the maidservant that there was a girl who knew medicine and said that the medicine Lianqiao was taking was wrong. Show the medicine to the girl next to the grandma who knows medicine, and say that it is an anti-fetal medicine..."

Speaking of this, she put on an appearance of killing relatives righteously: "Although Lianqiao is the niece of the servant, but the servant just heard from the servant next to the uncle that the uncle has found out that Mama Xie privately carved the seal. Mama Xie murdered the old man. Ancestor's suspicion, this servant did not dare to conceal the matter, so she reported the matter to Grandma."

"Grandma thought that there might be something wrong with Lianqiao's pregnancy, so she ordered her servants to come and tie this girl up to the Embroiderer."

Shen Lingxi found it very interesting.

First, the eldest son of the Su family found out about Mrs. Xie's private engraving of the seal, and then the eldest grandma sent her stewards to "kill relatives righteously".

From the looks of it, it can be said that the husband and wife sing together, and the husband and wife are of the same mind, and they both want to help Su Xian get rid of the crime.

However, if the couple really helped Su Xian get rid of the crime, it would prove that the Second Mistress Xie Wanyan's testimony was perjury.

At that time, the ancestors and the two grandchildren may fight.

What Shen Lingxi could think of, how could the ancestors not think of it.

She stared at Mama Xie, "Didn't you just say that you have nothing to hide from me? Your granddaughter is pregnant, how can you not know? Whose seed is she carrying?"

"Slave servant... I really don't know, servant servant." Mama Xie made a dazed look.

The old ancestor laughed angrily, "Only when the Xi pulse is diagnosed can you drink the anti-fetal medicine. If you want to diagnose the Xi pulse, the fetus must be at least three months old. She is serving in my room on weekdays. If you don't cover it for her, Chen Xiang How can the whole court know nothing about this matter? At this moment, you are still playing charades with me, Xie Qiuhua, I want to see what will happen to you in the end!"

After all, the ancestor flew out angrily.

Mama Xie lowered her brows and eyes.

Her people are already dead, so what else can happen.

Now, she only hopes that her own granddaughter will be able to survive this catastrophe by relying on her son.

In this way, it is not in vain for her to die this once.

Shen Lingxi had a panoramic view of Xie's mother's expression, the corners of her lips curled slightly, she stepped aside, and said to Zhao Chunlan: "In that case, auntie, let's go."

Then, he walked to Chunjun's side.

Although Zhao Chunlan didn't know why Shen Lingxi appeared at Mama Xie's house, she could see that Shen Lingxi had a close relationship with the Embroidery Envoy, so she didn't dare to ask more questions, and responded respectfully.

She grabbed Lianqiao's skirt, and rudely lifted Lianqiao, who was crying with pear blossoms and rain, from the ground, and handed it to the servants behind her, letting them carry her away.

Mother Xie was worried about her granddaughter, so she hurriedly followed behind.

Zhao Chunlan ordered to the servants who followed: "Grandma has an order to search the house inside and out, and anyone who finds useful clues that can help the embroiderer and uncle investigate the case will be rewarded with money." Twelve."

Under the heavy reward, the servants were all full of energy and searched around the house to find it.

Zhao Chunlan whispered a few more words to one of the servants, then bid farewell to Shen Lingxi and walked outside.

Shen Lingxi looked at Zhao Chunlan thoughtfully, and said to Chunjun in a low voice: "I'll go back to the uncle's house first, please stay here and watch."

Chun Jun responded, and Shen Lingxi left.

*
Back at Wu'anbo mansion again, for convenience, Shen Lingxi changed back to the embroidered clothes envoy's attire.

But this time, the courtyard where the Embroidered Clothes Envoy was stationed was full of people.

On the contrary, the mourning hall next door was deserted, and the guests who came to express their condolences were all taken by the butler to eat next to them.

At noon, Wu Anbo and his wife, their two sons and daughter-in-law were all invited to the hall.

Chu Yan sat at the head with a cold expression, looking down at Lianqiao and Zhao Chunlan who were kneeling in the hall.

Shen Lingxi slipped into the main hall with small steps, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Chu Yan's cold phoenix eyes, which happened to be looking at herself.

Maybe he called her over in full view like last time.

Shen Lingxi hurriedly made a silent gesture to him, consciously sneaked behind him and stood beside him.

Chu Yan turned towards her, and said in a low voice, "You go to the interrogation."

It was only then that Shen Lingxi realized that Chunjun was watching over Mrs. Xie's yard, and since she was standing here, she was going to take over Chunjun's position.

Yeah.

If the emperor's grandson went to the interrogation in person, Shen Lingxi reckoned that Lian Qiao would be too scared to speak.

She cleared her throat and looked at Lianqiao, "Yesterday before your grandmother passed away, you said those words, but the truth? You have to think about it, this is the last chance His Highness gave you, no matter what you said last time Whether it is true or not, as long as you tell the truth this time, His Highness will not argue with you because of your pregnancy."

She hoped that the warning just now might have some effect on Lianqiao.

Lianqiao had stopped her tears, hesitated, and timidly replied, "What I said last time...is the truth."

Shen Lingxi raised her almond eyes slightly.

"Since that's the case, then repeat what you testified in front of His Highness last time in front of all the masters of the Bo Manor."
