Chapter 82 Shen Yunpei is an excellent scapegoat
"You are the murderer! The East Pavilion is on fire, why is it that only my Rou'er was burned to you, but you are fine, you are the murderer." Zhao Menglan glared at Ye Muxi angrily, gnashing her teeth, emotionally disturbed, rushing forward to beat Ye Muxi, But he was quickly stopped by the nuns around him.

"Zhao Menglan, stop!" The old lady snorted coldly, and said coldly, "Isn't it because Mu Xi was not burned and you are out of balance? Are you Rou'er's mother? If you don't go to find the real murderer, you must If Mu Xi burns like Rou'er, then you're satisfied, right?"

Zhao Menglan was stopped by two nuns, and she cried out in grief and indignation, "Old Madam, she is the one who killed Rou'er, she is the murderer!"

"What evidence do you have! Rou'er told you personally?" the old lady asked coldly.

Zhao Menglan cried and said, "Rou'er hasn't woken up yet, but last night, the number of maids in Xiaoxiang Garden was one less. Many maids in Yurouyuan saw it with their own eyes, and it was that lowly servant girl from Xiaoxiangyuan who set fire. Instigate, if not her, who else could it be!"

"My maid set fire?" Ye Muxi frowned, "Mother, is this impossible?"

Zhao Menglan cursed angrily, "Stop pretending, that lowly servant girl in Xiaoxiangyuan fled in fear of crime, the facts are in front of you, do you still want to deny it?"

After last night, Baoqin disappeared.

Shen Yunpei, who was on the side, saw this scene with gloating face.Dafang and Sanfang's dog bites the dog, it's really a joy.It's just a pity that Ye Muxi was not burned to death last night, otherwise, in the entire Ye Mansion, except for his daughter, who else would be able to compete for a place in Chaohuang Academy.

"Grandmother, I don't know which servant girl it is? Muxi was unwell last night, so she went to sleep when she got back. She was summoned by her grandmother when she woke up this morning. I don't know what happened." Ye Muxi looked at the old lady with a blank expression on her face. .

The old lady said, "The maidservant who absconded is called Baoqin."

"It's her? After I punished that slave girl last time, I degraded her to be a criminal slave. I have never seen her again." Ye Muxi got up from her seat and said, "Grandmother, please be careful."

The old lady nodded, "I also believe that you are innocent. Mu Xi, tell me what happened that day? You are the person involved, and you know the specific situation best."

From the moment her grandmother came and asked about her physical condition, Ye Muxi knew that the old matriarch had found some evidence that could prove her innocence, and she had already made a judgment on this matter in her heart.

Ye Muxi recalled it carefully, and said, "Last night, I invited Sister Rou to Dongge to appreciate poetry together. I originally wanted to invite Qingyao, but I heard that she was with grandma, so I didn't dare to disturb grandma, so I didn't invite her. So there are only me and Eldest Sister in the East Pavilion. I can understand that Da Niang wants to blame me, if I hadn’t invited Eldest Sister to East Pavilion, Eldest Sister would not..."

Ye Muxi looked sad, and said slowly, "The east pavilion is the center of the fire, if the eldest sister was still in the main hall, she might have gone out long ago, it's all my fault... At that time when our sisters were talking, the eldest sister said she was sleepy, I also felt a little tired, and then we found out that there was a fire, and I wanted to run but I was tired, lethargic, and I couldn’t exert myself.”

"Sister Rou fell asleep, and I wanted to sleep too. I was hijacked by a black-clothed ghost-faced man in a daze. After flying out of the flames, I became sober instead. Grandma, I suspect that someone poisoned us, otherwise Eldest sister will not be in a coma."

The old lady nodded secretly, yes, what Ye Muxi said was exactly the same as what she investigated.

"You have a good suspicion. I have investigated all the things in the East Pavilion of Yurou Garden. Although many of them have been burned, I have also found some of them. The incense you use is too heavy to calm the nerves, and it will make people unconsciously Falling into a coma." The old matriarch said, his eyes fell on the servants on the ground like blades, "You lowly servants still haven't explained, what's the matter with the incense?"

The servants kowtowed repeatedly, "The servants don't know, the old matriarch, please forgive me."

"Old Madam, they are all maids of Yurou Garden, so they won't harm Rou'er. The incense must have been manipulated by Ye Muxi. After she got the incense, she added a soothing effect to it, intentionally I lit the incense when Rou'er came, just to burn Rou'er to death. The old lady, she is the murderer!" Zhao Menglan seized the opportunity and shouted through gritted teeth.

The old matriarch gestured to Ye Qingyao who was next to her, and Ye Qingyao walked up with a box of incense, and said, "This is the incense from the East Pavilion, which is in the form of paste. These things were not burned in the side hall, so we can buy them." Leave the evidence. After inspection, it is that the sedative content in it is too heavy, causing people to fall asleep. But if you want to make the incense into powder, and then dry it into a powder paste shape, you slaves who make incense say that it takes a lot of time. long time."

"Three... three days, the fastest three days." One of the servants replied timidly.

The old lady asked again, "When was the incense delivered to the East Pavilion?"

"Today at noon..." The servant girl replied again.

This statement makes things very clear.The incense was only delivered to Ye Muxi at noon, and the calming effect in these creamy incense was added three days ago, and at that time, the incense was not in Ye Muxi's hands.

Ye Muxi wanted to add soothing ingredients to the incense, but it was never too late.The incense that has turned into a paste, if you want to increase the soothing spice, you need to re-melt it, at least three days.

Zhao Menglan was speechless when she saw this scene.

Ye Muxi's face remained unchanged, and she smiled faintly from the bottom of her heart.Otherwise, why did she start using the incense when she got it.

"So if it's not that the maids in Yurouyuan are careless in making incense, or they were bought by some people, they gave this kind of incense to Mu Xi in order to harm Mu Xi." The old lady said coldly, "You still don't explain, Who ordered it?"

Several servants kowtowed and wept, indicating that no one instructed them.

Zhao Menglan's heart skipped a beat, the maids in Yurouyuan are absolutely fine.It seems that this incense was created by Ye Wanrou, but fortunately the old lady did not suspect that it was Ye Wanrou who did it.

It seems that you can't just talk nonsense, otherwise, if it turns out that Ye Wanrou murdered Ye Muxi and reaped the consequences, it will really be over.

Seeing this, Zhao Menglan could only bite the bullet and say, "But it was Ye Muxi's maid who set the fire, it's a well-known fact..."

"That's right. The person who set the fire was Baoqin. After she set the fire, she absconded in fear of crime, but she was silenced as soon as she escaped from the Ye Mansion. The black hands behind the scenes were really quick. They didn't want to leave anyone alive. They wanted to come to a dead end. It's a pity that Baoqin I still have a hand left." The old lady sneered and said, "Bring it up."

Ye Muxi said in surprise, "Eh? Baoqin is dead?"

"That's right. This kind of slave who betrayed his master deserves to die." The old lady said coldly.

Two nuns came up carrying Baoqin's body, and the other nun carried a bundle from Baoqin's body.

Baoqin was already disfigured, but now the corpse was lying in the lobby, and the corpse looked extremely hideous and terrifying.

Mammy opened the bundle, except for two sets of laundry clothes, all of them were gold, silver and jewelry, and there was also a long jewelry box with a gold hairpin inside.And when Mammy opened the jewelry box and took out the gold hairpin, Shen Yunpei's expression changed.

"When the guards of the Ye Mansion arrived, Baoqin had already been silenced. The person who did it thought that as long as the person died, no one would know the truth. It's just that the sky net is not leaking. I found a clue. Shen Yunpei, this golden hairpin was given to you by me during the Chinese New Year last year, right?" the old lady said coldly.

Shen Yunpei's legs softened and she knelt on the ground, her face full of disbelief and fear, "Old Madam, this golden hairpin daughter-in-law has been lost for several months and has never been found. I really don't know how it fell into the hands of that lowly maid."

"With so much gold, silver and jewelry, you really paid a lot of money to buy Ye Muxi's life." The old lady didn't believe her at all, slammed the table and said sharply, "I have repeatedly told you that they are going to enter Chaohuang The academy is the hope of our Ye family, you hate her so much, you must put her to death!"

Shen Yunpei didn't understand why she was dragged into the water when she was doing well, and quickly kowtowed and said, "Old Madam, please be careful! I really don't know, I don't know anything. This golden hairpin must have been stolen by this lowly servant girl. I'm fine."

"You didn't reward it? It has nothing to do with you? Then how do you explain the note she left in this jewelry box?" The old lady picked up the jewelry box angrily, and smashed the box and the golden hairpin on Shen Yunpei's face .

Shen Yunpei opened the jewelry box with trembling hands. It was an ordinary carved wooden box with a layer of red satin on the bottom. Under the satin, there was a two-finger-wide note with only one sentence written on it.

"Shen Yunpei ordered me to burn Ye Muxi to death."

Shen Yunpei couldn't believe it, the box in her hand fell to the ground with a bang, and her face turned pale as if struck by lightning, "Old Madam, I... I don't know, I don't know this lowly maid, I really don't know, old lady Taijun, someone framed me, I am innocent, I am really innocent!"

When Zhao Menglan saw this scene, she didn't expect that it had anything to do with Shen Yunpei. She suddenly remembered that Ye Wanrou had said before that Shen Yunpei was an excellent scapegoat.Could it be...

Yes, all of this was arranged by Ye Wanrou.

The East Pavilion was set on fire, and once Ye Muxi died, the old matriarch would definitely investigate, so there must be solid evidence to blame her.

Ye Wanrou deliberately gave Baoqin a lot of gold and silver jewels, and gave Baoqin this gold hairpin in a jewelry box, and Baoqin didn't know the origin of this gold hairpin.He thought that after finishing this vote, he could leave Ye Mansion with gold, silver and jewels and live incognito.

In fact, Ye Wanrou didn't intend to keep her alive at all.Only the dead can keep secrets.

There is a mystery hidden in this jewelry box, and there is a note blaming Shen Yunpei.Shen Yunpei's golden hairpin and silence were all arranged by Ye Wanrou.

The person who silenced him also deliberately waited until the old matriarch's people arrived before running away, so that Baoqin's body and these "evidences" could fall into the hands of the old matriarch.

As soon as he saw this golden hairpin, the old lady would know that it was Erfang's instigation, and with that note, it made people feel that Baoqin deliberately kept one hand in order to prevent being silenced.
