I can't afford to mess with the concubine doctor

Chapter 158 Evidence
Although Murong Jing was greedy for life and afraid of death, he was still a person with an exquisite mind. After thinking about it for a while, he understood Qu Lingxu's plan, and said with a slight smile: "Of course this is no problem, but we don't know whether the Zhou Mansion has How many servants, it is better to ask Boss Zhou to bring over the roster, so that it is clear at a glance."

Although Murong Jing didn't know Fang Bo, it didn't mean he didn't pay attention to the situation in the palace. Zhou Wu's flustered appearance was obviously a guilty conscience, but now there is no proof, so it's not good to torture him to extract a confession from the subordinates. A breakthrough is the most appropriate way.

Now that he has caught up, why not send Qu Lingxu along the way?What's more, once Fang Bo is found and Zhou Wu's charges are confirmed, he can follow the clues to drag Li Bin into the water. Even if he can't get rid of this obtrusive political opponent, he can still deal with the arrogance of Murong Li's party. It really kills two birds with one stone. .

Zhou Wu never dreamed that Qu Lingxu would come up with such a trick. He is not well, but all the servants of the big family are registered. It is too late to make a temporary fake at this moment, so he was stunned for a while. There was no way to advance or retreat, only wishing that I had never appeared before.

By this time, Murong Jing was completely sure that Zhou Wu had hidden Fang Bo, but it would take some time to find him out, so he took a sip of tea and said with a half-smile, "Why doesn't Boss Zhou say anything, but there is What's the difficulty?"

Murong Jing's words made Zhou Wu recover from the shock and panic, stood up quickly, and said with an apologetic smile: "His Royal Highness is destined, how can Xiaomin be in trouble, please wait a moment with the princess, Xiaomin will personally Go get the booklet."

"It's such a small matter, how dare you bother Boss Zhou to go in person, just find a servant to fetch it." Qu Lingxu glanced at Zhou Wu with a half-smile, then turned to Yun Xin and said, "Yun Xin, follow me go together."

If someone is watching, they are not afraid of what he will do.

Zhou Wu was naturally unwilling to do so, but no matter how courageous he was, he would not dare to violate Murong Jing's intentions, so he could only ask people to get the roster, and at the same time bit the bullet and ordered all the servants to be summoned. Coming to the main hall, it can be seen that Zhou Wu is rich and powerful. There are four or fifty young servants in the mansion, standing in several rows. Fortunately, the main hall is spacious enough, otherwise it really wouldn't be able to accommodate them.

Ma Zilian locked Fang Bo into a secret room under Zhou Wu's order, and when he entered, he was blinded by all kinds of gold, silver and jewels in front of him, and there was no one around him, so he secretly took out two small gold ingots from the box I stuffed it into my arms, and was about to hide it back in the room, but saw all the servants whimpering towards the front hall, so I hurriedly followed and stood in the corner of the last row.

People came, but he didn't know what happened in the front hall. Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit dignified, he secretly raised his head and glanced up.

Pockmarked face has seen Qu Lingxu's resourcefulness before. Last time at Jingzhao Yamen, if she hadn't managed to trick them out, she wouldn't have been able to convict them in court... Thinking of this, he couldn't help shivering All of a sudden, he lowered his head almost instinctively.

However, before it was too late, just that one glance was enough for Qu Lingxu to see through his guilty conscience, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help evoking a trace of a clear smile.

I thought it would take more effort, but now it seems that it doesn't have to be so troublesome.

Thinking in this way, Qu Lingxu looked sideways at Murong Jing, and said with a slight smile: "His Royal Highness, I would like to send someone to come forward for questioning, I wonder if it is possible?"

For this, Murong Jing naturally would not refuse, after she nodded in agreement, Qu Lingxu raised her hand and called the pockmarked face closer, and said with a faint smile: "I haven't seen you for a long time, I didn't expect to see my old friend again, it's really a fate. "

There was no sharpness in Qu Lingxu's voice, and there was even a bit of gentleness in Qu Lingxu's voice, but it made the pockmarked face tremble, and then he knelt down with a plop, and said in a trembling voice: "My servant greets the princess, the princess May the Lord be blessed and safe. '

He didn't recognize Murong Jing, so he didn't greet him at the same time.

"Get up." Qu Lingxu nodded slightly, a pair of beautiful deep eyes fixed on the pockmarked face, and sighed, "I don't think I'm happy now, because someone deliberately came to me You are unhappy, you say, such a person deserves to die?"

In the past, it would be a great honor for someone as valuable as Qu Lingxu to condescend to talk to a servant, but in this situation, it is definitely not a good thing. The pockmarked face is full of regrets, why do you hate yourself? He wanted to raise his head desperately, but thinking about those things now, it was useless, so he could only suppress his uneasy mood, and apologized with a smile: "The princess is joking, who dares to make you unhappy, isn't this courting death?"

"You're right, but it's a pity that some people are tired of living a good life and just want to die." Saying this, the faint smile on Qu Lingxu's face disappeared instantly, and said in a deep voice: "Kidnapping good people privately You should be very clear about what the crime is. This county lord will give you a chance now. If you tell Fang Bo's whereabouts now, this princess can spare you from death. The princess doesn't mind letting you have a taste."

Zhou Wu robbed Fang Bo so boldly, not so much because he had no law, but because he was provoking Qu Lingxu's authority in a disguised form. If it was before, Qu Lingxu would have disdain to be as knowledgeable as such a person, but Fang Bo The disappearance of her made her understand a truth, she couldn't be merciful to these despicable people, otherwise they would not only not have any gratitude, but would even intensify their revenge.

'Either don't do it, or do it absolutely' is also a good life creed.

Hearing the words 'thousand cuts to pieces', Pockmarked Face could almost imagine the scene where the sharp white blade scraped his body little by little, and was so frightened that he trembled all over, unable to speak for a while.

Zhou Wu originally thought that those people with pockmarked faces were standing in the back row, it would not be easy to attract attention, but Qu Lingxu found him after only a few seconds of entering the door, and he was frightened into such a state after a few words, he was really a vicious person Useless stuff.

He was furious, but in front of Murongjing and Qu Lingxu, he couldn't tell Mazilian anything, so he just took two steps forward to the center of the hall, stood next to Mazilian, and said with a surprised face: "Jun What does the Lord mean by these words, could it be that this servant was blind and ran into you at some point?" After finishing speaking, he raised his foot and kicked the pockmarked face, and sternly reprimanded: "Say, are you going out to cause trouble behind my back? gone?"

Taking advantage of the opportunity of turning his head, he whispered in pockmarked face's ear: "Don't talk nonsense, otherwise you may be careful of your family's life!"

Pockmarked face is a domestic slave, and his wealth and life are tied to Zhou Wu. As long as he cares about his parents, wife and children, he will definitely not dare to confess Zhou Wu.

Now that things are going on, if you want to hide, you can't hide, you can only let pockmark face bear all the guilt, and it is not yourself who had a direct conflict with Fang Bo at the beginning, as long as you refuse to admit it, with Li Bin's face as a guarantee, Even Murong Jing couldn't embarrass herself too much.

Hearing Zhou Wu's words, pockmarked face and heart were immediately filled with ashes-like depression, but he was not stupid, so naturally he would not plead guilty immediately, but kowtowed and cried with all grievances: "Master, even if the slave has a hundred How dare you dare to offend the princess, I really don't know why the princess would say such a thing!"

"I don't know?" Qu Lingxu snorted coldly, "It seems that you really won't cry when you see the coffin, Mr. Song, please take this slave back to Jingzhaoyin Mansion and give him a severe punishment. I believe that by then, he will Willing to say anything."

"Princess...isn't this a bit sloppy?" Although Song Zhiwen is inclined to the prince's party, in essence, he is a very well-mannered official. The suggestion of a big punishment is still not acceptable.

Qu Lingxu naturally understood what Song Zhiwen meant. She raised her head and looked at Murong Jing, then turned her gaze back, and said with a faint smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Song, this princess will never wrong a good person. Said, because there is ample evidence."

evidence?

Several people in the hall, including Murong Jing, all focused their eyes on Qu Lingxu in unison.

Seeing everyone's surprised or terrified expressions, Qu Lingxu signaled the guards to press the pockmarked face closer, then pointed to his shoe upper, and said softly: "His Royal Highness and Mr. Song, please look at the gate of the general's mansion. The corridors are covered with fine white sand, although the sky is dark, but just now when we came along the road, the court lady noticed that there is no such sand in Boss Zhou's residence, which should prove that he has been to other courtyards."

Following Qu Lingxu's fingers, Murong Jing really found a faint sand mark on the toe of the pockmarked face, but the mark was very shallow, and it was really hard to find if one didn't pay close attention.

In fact, the white fine sand is not unique to the General's Mansion. If it is contaminated in other places, it is not unreasonable. Qu Lingxu just found an excuse to test the reaction of the pockmarked face again, so that he Expose more flaws.

There is not only one way of expressing the aggressive method.

He still complied with that sentence and felt guilty. Hearing Qu Lingxu's words, Pockmarked subconsciously looked down at his toes. However, he really didn't read the almanac when he went out today, or he was doomed to be unlucky. Before he had time to explain the origin of the fool, the gold ingot hidden in his bosom rolled out one step ahead.

This time, I was completely dumbfounded.

A servant had gold ingots hidden on his body, and any fool knew that the origin must be unknown, and it was impossible for Pocky Face to explain anything.

Qu Lingxu and the others didn't know the situation, but Zhou Wu understood the whole story after a little thought. This greedy slut, who usually gets so many rewards, dared to take the opportunity to steal gold from the secret room. The leopard is daring!
