Chapter 282
She walked back to Aunt Mei's cell door, Shi Shiran said, "Tell me what you want first."

Aunt Mei said: "I want you to help me get rid of the crime and let me go back to Wei's house."

Wei Qing lowered his eyes and looked at her dirty fingers grabbing the prison door, without discerning the expression in his eyes, he said softly: "Then what is it for exchange?"

Aunt Mei slowed down, and said in a low voice: "Before Xu entered the gate of Wei's house, she had a concubine outside. The concubine went to Wei's house to look for her before, but she paid her off with money. If there is no ghost in her heart, she Will you be so panicked? If you search down, maybe you can find more interesting things. If you help me, I will tell you where the concubine is."

Wei Qing said: "It sounds good."

Besides, how could the Wei family be deserted? If she brought Aunt Mei back to the Wei family, maybe the Xu family could make something more lively.

Wei Qing said again: "It's best to think carefully first, who has been to your yard two days before and after the old lady's birthday."

Aunt Mei shook her head and said: "Mr. Xu really intends to frame me, she won't let me see anyone enter my yard."

Wei Qing glanced at her and said: "All the servants who come in and out of your place, have I said that they must be from the Xu family?"

Aunt Mei froze for a moment, stopped her tears and began to think.

The two days before and the day of the birthday banquet were busy times, with many people going in and out of Aunt Mei's courtyard to report matters.

She told Wei Qing everything she remembered.

When Wei Qing left, Aunt Mei was worried, and said again: "Wei Qing, do you agree to exchange with me? Are you not afraid that I will deceive you?"

Wei Qing said lightly: "If you lie to me, remember how you got out then, I will let you come in again."

Jing Zhaoyin is at the foot of the emperor, so the trial of the case should not be too nonsense, and it is the case of the household servant's family, let alone something similar to torture.

After Wei Qing went in and had a heart-to-heart talk with Aunt Mei, Jing Zhaoyi asked cordially, "Doctor Wei, is the prisoner willing to confess?"

Wei Qing said: "Your Excellency, I don't know. I have lived under the same roof with Aunt Mei for nearly a year. She is usually gentle and virtuous, and does not contend with the world. Mrs. Wei intends to lift her up. If she poisons Mrs. Wei at this time People, isn’t it a little bit of a failure? So the possibility of someone being framed cannot be ruled out.”

The Wei family took this case as a family scandal, and they avoided talking about it. Right now, Jing Zhaoyin can only ask Wei Qing for information.

Wei Qing is a celebrity who has just received an award from the emperor, so her words are quite convincing.

Wei Qing said again: "Your Excellency wants to thoroughly investigate this case. I have a suggestion. It is better to call all the servants who entered and exited Aunt Mei's yard in those two days to conduct a strict inspection. Maybe some clues can be found."

Jing Zhaoyin didn't want to be so troublesome at first, but now the matter has been publicized, even the emperor knows, and he has to bring out a murderer to deal with it.

Hearing Wei Qing's guarantee for Aunt Mei, Jing Zhaoyin also believed that the murderer was someone else. After Wei Qing and Yilan left the government office, he sent someone to the prison to follow Aunt Mei's dictation, and then went to Wei's house to summon him. All servants who have entered and exited Aunt Mei's courtyard.

At that time, Wei Qing came out of the government office, took a step ahead of Jing Zhaoyin, and said to Yilan calmly: "Ask Ah Ying to find someone who is shameless, go and lure Lin Sheng out, give him 100 taels of silver, let him Get out of the capital. Go now."

Yilan was puzzled and said, "Is it the Lin Sheng that Aunt Mei just mentioned? He usually works in the Wei family, but he's a lazy and cunning stealer. Why did Miss give him so much money?"

The master and the servant have lived in Wei's house for such a long time anyway. Aunt Mei said that those servants who have been in and out of her yard are obedient and honest, and which ones are stealthy, cheating and dishonest, and they still have a little understanding.

Wei Qing looked at her and said, "Go and do it first, and think about it later with your head, okay?"

So Yilan explained the matter to Ah Ying without any delay.

Ah Ying was very quick to do things, and took 100 taels of silver to Weifu, saying that he was a relative of Lin Sheng's family and wanted to see him.

After Lin Sheng was born, he went to a place where no one was there. Ah Ying gave him 100 taels of silver and asked him to leave the capital immediately.

100 taels of silver, an ordinary servant may not be able to earn so much after many years of hard work, then how could Lin Sheng not be moved, the Wei family did not return, and he didn't want anything, so he ran out with the money that day In the capital, there is no trace.

When the officers and soldiers of the government office came to summon all the suspect servants, only Lin Sheng was missing.

After asking, I found out that Lin Sheng had sneaked out of the mansion before this, and never came back.

In addition, the other servants have a very bad opinion of him, and he likes to do some sneaky things on weekdays. According to Aunt Mei's dictation, Aunt Mei just reprimanded him because he failed to do a good job a few days ago After a meal.

That's why Lin Sheng held a grudge and wanted to wait for an opportunity to retaliate, which is why he did such an outrageous thing.

In the end, Jing Zhaoyin confirmed that Lin Sheng was afraid of being exposed, so he absconded in fear of crime, and identified Lin Sheng as the murderer in the case.But now he has disappeared without a trace, so the yamen had no choice but to post the arrest list first, and then arrest him when he is found.

That's the end of the case.

Aunt Mei was wronged, and it was impossible for Wei Cishu and the old lady not to accept her on the cusp of this crisis, so she returned to Wei Mansion smoothly after all.

The old lady was rescued by Wei Qing and failed to return to the west, and Aunt Mei had Wei Qing's help to return to Wei's house. Xu hated her so much that she couldn't get rid of these two stumbling blocks that hindered her in one fell swoop.

But the only advantage may be that through this birthday banquet, people outside know that the Wei family has her as the mistress wife. It's possible.

When the wind picked up in the evening, Yilan handed the letter sent by Aunt Mei to Wei Qing.

Wei Qing was lying on the recliner, the corners of her skirt fluttering like summer flowers in the wind, she unfolded the letter paper casually, and read the contents of the letter calmly.

Yi Lan was puzzled before, but now it's time to turn the corner, and said: "Miss, what if Lin Sheng broke his promise and came back?"

Wei Qing said leisurely: "If you don't keep your word, you can only be a criminal when you come back. If he sees the arrest list, he should hide far away. If he insists on coming back to die, then he can't think about it. "

At the right time, the nurse next door came over and brought some freshly pickled side dishes, and said with a smile: "So Miss Wei is at home, this is a newly made snack at home, it is the past when the servants followed the governor at the border. The popular side dishes over there are also crisp and refreshing when eaten with porridge."
