Chapter 36 Confrontation
"Miss Lin, be careful what you say!"

Although the prime minister's wife was in a state of distress, she still couldn't conceal her majestic aura, and said with a slight warning.

"Yiyao, just tell the truth, and neither is my Shangshufu. Whoever wants to make it right can do it!"

Mrs. Lin said this, but she didn't take into account the relationship between the two families at all. She made up her mind to decide for her granddaughter!

But think about it, Lin Yiyao is the concubine of the Shangshu Mansion, and the Prime Minister's Mansion is blatantly slapping the Shangshu Mansion in the face.

If you remain indifferent at this time, isn't this a joke for people to see!

"Don't Miss Lin and Miss Yao hand in handkerchiefs? How could they do such a thing?"

"Is there any misunderstanding?"

"I don't know, let's see what Miss Lin has to say."

"I was with my grandmother in the garden today. It was Yao Yurou's maid, Wutong, who called me to the West Wing Courtyard." Lin Yiyao knelt on the ground and said sonorously.

"No, I don't have it, my servant has been wronged!" Wu Tong said with a panicked expression on his face as he knelt down on the ground.

"You're talking nonsense! Wutong has always been by my side and never left." Yao Yurou also retorted at this moment.

"Of course you won't admit it. If you hadn't called someone to call me, why would I have run to the West Wing Courtyard alone?" Lin Yiyao said sharply.

"You spitting blood! Do you have evidence?"

Yao Yurou's whole body was trembling with anger, and she gasped and said angrily.

Yao Yurou suspects that Lin Yiyao did it on purpose, and she still remembers how she lied to her before, otherwise why would she lie and frame her.

Wutong has always been by her side, never leaving her sight, and he never asked anyone to call her to the West Wing Courtyard.

"My personal maid is the proof!" Lin Yiyao said.

Chen Xiang knelt on the ground, touched her forehead to the ground and said: "The servant girl just came back from going to the toilet today, the eldest maid Wu Tong next to Miss Yao found the servant girl, saying that Miss Yao invited the eldest miss to the West Wing Courtyard to watch the excitement."

"What are you watching?" Mrs. Liu asked.

"The maidservant didn't know either, Wutong was in a hurry, before the maidservant came to ask clearly, she left." Chen Xiang said.

"It's nonsense! She is your personal maid, so naturally she listens to you in everything. What kind of witness is she? Yiyao, why do you want to wrong me so much?"

Yao Yurou seemed to have been greatly wronged, and choked up.

But at this moment, Yao Yurou's entire face was swollen so badly that she couldn't even move her eyes, and her face was bruised and purple, no different from a pig's head.

But she didn't know it herself, and wiped her tears pretendingly, hoping that someone would come out and say a few words for her.

With such a slender figure and such an ugly face, it's hard to bear to look directly at.

"I wronged you?!" Lin Yiyao laughed out loud as if she had heard some joke.

"Then I don't know where elder sister Yao went when she left the garden? Can anyone prove that Wutong has been with you all this time?" Lin Yiyao questioned.

Yao Yurou was at a loss for words, of course no one could prove it.

At that time, in order to wait for the meeting to go smoothly, she led everyone to the West Wing Courtyard.So he threw his jade pendant on the grass near the corridor of the west wing courtyard.

I avoided people along the way, for fear that someone would see me and I would not be able to explain it clearly later.

"Why doesn't Sister Yao talk?" Lin Yiyao asked.

"I went out to relax, and I didn't meet anyone along the way." Yao Yurou said coldly.

After all, the two insisted on their own opinions, but there was no evidence.

For a while, everyone didn't know who to trust.

"Then how did Mr. Qi come to the West Wing Courtyard?" Mrs. Liu asked instead.

"I, I, I seem to have been knocked out." Qi Sheng said in a daze.

"Did you get knocked out? Where did you get knocked out?" Mrs. Liu asked.

"It's just outside the garden at the Yuxuan Pavilion." Qi Sheng said.

It really got weirder the more I said it, the Yuxuan Pavilion was just outside the arch of the garden, the banquet was held in the garden today, and there were quite a lot of people coming and going nearby.

Unexpectedly, there were still people who unconsciously beat Mr. Qi unconscious, and then brought him to the West Wing Courtyard.

Everyone felt a little unbelievable.

"Did someone see who beat Mr. Qi?" Mrs. Liu thought for a moment and asked everyone present.

"My servant didn't see who beat Young Master Qi, but I did see Young Master Qi sitting alone in Yuxuan Pavilion before." A servant girl knelt down and said.

The maid's words proved that Qi Sheng was not lying, but the clue was cut off here.

"Did you do it?"

At the back of the crowd, Jin Jin moved to Shen Zhi's side and asked.

Shen Zhi's eyes kept falling on Gu Yunxi, and he didn't say a word, and didn't even give him a look.

He was very frank, as if this matter really had nothing to do with him.

But seeing his indifferent look, Jin Jin knew that this matter had something to do with him.

"I knew it was you, and I said why did you let him go so kindly, so you were waiting here!" Jin Jin had such an expression on his face.

"However, your methods today are quite gentle." Jin Jin sighed, "I didn't expect you to spare his life."

Shen Zhi's eyes fell on Jin Jin, with a hint of warning.

"Okay, okay, I'll shut up."

Jin Jin's hand made a sewing motion in front of his mouth, promising that he would never speak out.

Then he smiled and asked, "However, should you give me some hush money? You know that I can't hide any secrets in my mouth. If I accidentally tell it out one day"

Shen Zhi's face remained unchanged, and he didn't even frown, as if he knew he would say so.

The tone was cold: "What do you want?"

"I want the Qifengqin in your study." Jin Jin said a little excitedly.

"it is good."

The tone was calm, and Shen Zhi's emotion could not be heard, but it was enough to shock Jin Jin.

He didn't know how many times he begged for this Qifengqin, and every time he rejected it with a cold face. He didn't expect to agree so easily this time.

Jin Jin looked at Gu Yunxi, it seems that the weight of Miss Lin in his heart is a bit different from what he thought!
"Ahhh!" The servant girl screamed.

Mrs. Liu's temples throbbed even harder: "What's wrong!"

The anger in his tone has not been concealed in the slightest.

"Ma'am, Qiao'er's body was found under the bed!" Mother Zhang said in Madam Liu's ear.

"Did you find anything?" Mrs. Liu asked with her eyes slightly closed, rubbing her temples.

"The back of Qiao'er's head is full of blood, she must have been beaten to death with a wooden sleeper in the house, and" Zhang's mother said hesitantly. "The embroidered handkerchief of Miss Lin Er was also found in the room."

Zhang's mother said and presented the embroidered handkerchief in her hand.

Madam Liu didn't check, but turned to look at Gu Yunxi, and asked, "Second Miss Lin, is this handkerchief yours?"

"Yes." Gu Yunxi did not deny it.
