Chapter 61

On the second day of the banquet, Xinmeng didn't get up until early in the morning.After Yingxia waited for her to wash and wash, she twisted the green silk into a flying fairy bun, inserted the colorful butterflies flying golden steps obliquely, and a few small orchids carved from suet jade were dotted beside her.

"Miss is up? Yinping has something to report." After getting permission, Yinping raised the curtain and came in, walked to Xinmeng's side and whispered a few words.

"Really?" Xin Meng's eyes lit up, and she swayed in front of the mirror, "Did you see it with your own eyes?"

"I saw it with my own eyes." Yinping nodded, remembering the bloody scene, couldn't help but shudder, "Shen Gui was in a hurry, as soon as the city gate was opened this morning, he immediately sent people out of the city to find the soldiers in the army." The veterinarian came to treat Feihu, but the slaves probably couldn't save Feihu from his appearance."

"Let's go and have a look." Xinmeng gave Yingxia a few words, and hurried to the west of the General's Mansion with Yinping.

Keeping dogs is Shen Ji's great hobby, but what he raises is not an ordinary guard dog, but a strong hunting dog.For this reason, he specially surrounded a place in the mansion for raising and training hounds.And Shen Gui is the person in charge of taking care of the hounds.

When Xin dreamed of it, Shen Gui was sitting next to Feihu's body and crying bitterly.

The veterinarian who came from the army was a gray-haired old man. Seeing Shen Gui crying sadly, he sighed and said goodbye: "I really can't do anything, you better bury it. I will go back to the barracks now."

When he turned around to leave, he saw Xinmeng, based on her attire and attire, he guessed that she was a female family member in the mansion, and hurriedly saluted her.Xinmeng nodded, indicating that he could leave.

After the old veterinarian left, Xinmeng was about to step forward to take a closer look, but was dissuaded by Yinping in a low voice: "Miss hasn't left the cabinet yet, so don't get too close, so as not to stain your eyes."

Knowing that Yinping was doing it for her own good, Xinmeng stopped and looked over from a distance, and saw blood dripping from Feihu's body, and there were some dark red unidentified objects in the blood.

She instantly darkened her eyes.

Vicious Aunt Bai!Look at how she quibbles this time!
"Go to Piaoxue courtyard immediately and tell Songchun to 'invite' Aunt Bai here. I want to try the case!" Yinping responded and was about to leave when Xinmeng called him, and told Songchun, "After notifying Songchun , you go to the Feixia Courtyard and quietly call Fei Cui, so as not to disturb Madam, then call the servant girl who was left to take care of the old lady from the Compassionate Courtyard."

After two sticks of incense, everyone arrived.This time, the old lady went to Mount Wutai to worship Buddha and pray for blessings. She took away Mama Zhao, Mama Qian and the two maids, leaving behind a second-class maid called Ding Xiang.

During the days when the old lady was not in the mansion, the Mercy House was very quiet.Suddenly being called by the eldest lady, Ding Xiang was very puzzled. When she arrived, she saw the bloody flying tiger lying on the ground at first glance, and she screamed in fright.

The scream startled Shen Gui.He stopped crying and raised his head, only to find that there was a row of women standing in front of him, and the person in the middle was the eldest lady.He was taken aback, and couldn't help asking: "Miss, what are you... doing here?"

Xin Meng did not answer Shen Gui's question, but pointed to the kennel behind him: "Shen Gui, take out that pot of mint from the kennel."

"Yes, Miss." Shen Gui followed Xin Meng's wishes, went into the kennel and brought out a pot of mint, and placed it on the ground in front of her.

At first, when Xin Meng mentioned mint, Aunt Bai didn't understand, so when she saw the pot of mint on the ground, her face turned pale.She glanced at Feihu lying on the ground, and then at Mint.Could it be?no, I can not.When I went to say hello to my wife this morning, she paid special attention to the fact that the pot of mint she sent was well placed on the wooden shelf in the house.

This pot of mint is definitely not that pot!The young miss must be playing tricks and setting up a trap for her!
Thinking of this, Aunt Bai felt relieved a lot.

"Aunt Bai, why don't you tell me the truth!" Xinmeng shouted suddenly.

Aunt Bai was startled, she pretended to be calm and said, "I don't know what the eldest lady wants the maidservant to explain?"

"Still pretending to be confused?" Xinmeng pointed to the pot of mint with lush branches and leaves, "Of course I'm going to tell you what you did to it?"

"The concubine doesn't understand what the eldest lady means." In an instant, Aunt Bai had already made up her mind to deny it to the end no matter what.

Seeing that Aunt Bai refused to admit it, Xin Meng smiled sarcastically, and turned to Shen Gui who was standing aside: "Shen Gui, tell me in front of everyone, how did you get this pot of mint?"

Seeing Aunt Bai's pale face, and looking at Fei Hu who died tragically, Shen Gui vaguely understood something.With a sore nose, he choked up and said, "Last month, the villain found out that the general's favorite hound, Feihu, was pregnant. Eating. Later, the villain found that there were too many mosquitoes in the kennel, and he bit Feihu all night. Feihu couldn’t sleep well at night, and lethargy during the day, which affected his appetite. The villain tried many methods to repel the mosquitoes, but nothing worked.

"When the eldest lady heard about it, she gave the villain a pot of mint in the madam's room, and said that since the mint from Aunt Bai was put in the madam's room, there were no more mosquitoes. There were no more mosquitoes, Feihu slept better and ate more. But only ten days later, last night, Feihu suddenly screamed in pain, bleeding profusely under his body, and finally gave birth to a few that were not yet fully formed. The meat balls, just, just died."

Having said this, Shen Gui stopped talking, and the eyes that pierced Aunt Bai were bursting with anger.The general trusted him and let him take care of Feihu, but he let Feihu die at the hands of this vicious woman.

After listening to Shen Gui's account of what happened, the expressions of the other people present all changed.According to Shen Gui, the pot of mint placed on the ground is poisonous, it caused Feihu to abort and died.

The poisonous peppermint was originally given by Aunt Bai to the pregnant lady, the meaning of which can be understood by any stupid person, let alone those who have been serving the master for many years.

"This mint is not the one given to Madam by the maidservant, the one given by the maidservant is still in Madam's room." Thinking of the mint she saw in Feixia Courtyard this morning, Aunt Bai insisted on the pot of mint in front of her eyes. It wasn't from her. "If the young lady doesn't believe it, you can go to the madam with the concubine to confirm it."

It had long been expected that Aunt Bai would try her best to argue, so Xinmeng smiled and said lightly: "That's right! There is indeed a pot of mint in Madam's room at this time." Leng Yi continued, "However, after the pot of mint that Aunt Bai gave was taken away by Shen Gui, I asked Song Chun to buy it back from the nursery outside the mansion. Song Chun and Fei Cui can both testify that if Not enough, and the owner of the nursery can prove it. Aunt Bai, what else do you have to say?"

Shen Jiyuan was at the border. If he was convicted of murdering the mistress today, he might be beaten to death.Aunt Bai bit her lip hard, and she decided to go all out, denying it categorically: "This pot of mint was not given by my maidservant, my maidservant was planted and framed."
