Splendid concubine

Chapter 120 Sisters
Looking at Liu Ruyi again, her brows were furrowed. Obviously, digging out these things did not make her feel at ease. She always felt that she seemed to have missed something.

Suddenly, I remembered that I just forgot to order each master of the Zhao family to be detained separately.

There was not enough manpower, and it seemed unrealistic to separate the detainees, so I forgot about it.

After such a big incident happened, Jing Zhaoyin hurried over with a team of yamen servants.

Seeing Mu Zitan and Liu Ruyi, he bowed first and then asked what happened.

Naturally, Liu Ruyi couldn't say that she knew there was something wrong with the Zhao family, so she could only infer that Mu Zitan lost her hairpin when she fell into the water.

It was Mu Zitan who took the credit, and wanted to say that when Liu Ruyi went into the water to save someone, he discovered something unusual, but was stopped by Liu Ruyi's eyes.

Fortunately, Mu Zitan and Liu Ruyi had been together for a long time, although she didn't understand why Liu Ruyi stopped her, she still kept her mouth shut with a smile.

Jing Zhaoyin didn't dare to ask more questions, it was the princess and the princess who sent him to the door. He smiled like a flower on his old face, greeted people attentively, and served tea and snacks for Liu Ruyi and Mu Zitan and his party.

"Master Geng, please send someone to search and dig again. I suspect there will be more, but I just don't know."

Liu Ruyi drank tea and felt a little tired. It was obvious that there were too many things to do today and her body couldn't take it anymore.

"Your Excellency, focus on checking the deserted yards, those places where vegetation is planted and the vegetation is particularly lush, and the vicinity of the yards of the various masters."

"and also?"

As soon as Mr. Geng left with the yamen servants and assigned tasks, Liu Jiaren quickly asked: "The ones just now are enough, why are there more?"

"Don't tell me. I doubt it. Not only the old lady of the Zhao family, Madam, but also the ladies who have not left the cabinet have participated. They are very hostile on weekdays, and the third sister has felt it. "

Liu Ruyi lowered her voice and said: "Just now I made a mistake in doing something, I'm afraid I can't catch them all, there is still trouble."

"Isn't it? Now I think about it. At that time, the eldest sister and the second sister kept scolding me, especially fierce." Liu Mengxue is not ashamed of what happened at that time, and now she sees a better future , naturally in a good mood.

"Where's Wanwan? Why didn't you see Wanwan?" Liu Ruyi's face suddenly changed. Ever since she entered the Zhao residence, Liu Wanwan hadn't made a sound, so much so that they all forgot about her existence.

Almost immediately, Liu Ruyi stood up, looked around, trying to find Liu Wanwan, but the little girls around said that they hadn't seen Liu Wanwan for a while.

"Look, find her quickly, lest she do something that spoils our good deed." Liu Ruyi's face darkened, and she said seriously.

"No way." As soon as Liu Jiaren muttered, she was frightened by Liu Ruyi's sharp eyes, and hurriedly ordered the maid beside her to look for her.

"When was the last time you saw her?" Liu Ruyi asked seriously.

After thinking about it, Liu Jiaren replied: "It's time for the third son to welcome us."

"Go and have a look at the third son." Liu Ruyi sent Linglong out.

As soon as the order was finished, he took a few little girls to the third son.

It would be astonishing if that was what she thought.

Sure enough, the moment Liu Ruyi saw the Third Young Master and Liu Wanwan, Liu Ruyi was so angry that her head almost smoked.

The third son was supposed to be imprisoned, but because of his injury, before the matter was investigated, it was better not to be too harsh. The yamen servants moved him to lie on it.

Liu Wanwan was holding the third young master's hand, crying and not knowing what to say.

"Slap." A crisp applause blocked what Liu Ruyi hadn't said yet.

Liu Mengxue rushed over, pulled Liu Wanwan up and gave Liu Wanwan a slap, Liu Wanwan's porcelain-white face immediately turned red and swollen.

"Third sister, what are you doing?" Liu Wanwan covered her face, accusing Liu Mengxue in surprise.

"What am I doing? Tell me what you did first? How dare you come over to seduce your brother-in-law without the company of a maid? Still holding hands, I really have your Liu Wanwan, and you boast that your mother is a lady of everyone. I don't think it is as good as Qing, The sister in the building." Liu Mengxue became anxious, and her words made Liu Wanwan's tears flow even more fiercely.

"Mengxue, what are you doing? How do you act like a sister? Wanwan just saw that I was hurt and felt sorry for me, let's chat for a while." The third son Zhao lay on the soft bed and shouted angrily at Liu Mengxue.

"You're so sweet, you're so intimate, and you know this is my sister? Why do you need to shake hands when you talk for a while? If we hadn't come, we might have talked to each other in a while." Liu Mengxue roared.

"You vulgar woman, how can you maliciously speculate on your sister? You are also worthy of being a sister?" Zhao Sangong propped up his upper body from the soft couch, not to be outdone.

"Third sister, how can you say that, you are the one who doesn't want to marry the third young master, I, I..." Liu Wanwan lowered her head, holding the corner of her clothes in her hands, and whispered.

Obviously, it was interested in the third son.

Liu Ruyi went over, pulled Liu Mengxue, and hid behind her, "Mengxue, stop talking."

Liu Mengxue said in a panic, which showed more and more that she was uneducated and polluted other people's ears.

Seeing Liu Ruyi's eyes signal, although Liu Mengxue's face was flushed with anger, she also shut her mouth.

It's just that his chest was heaving violently, and he looked really angry.

Taking a warning look at Liu Wanwan, Liu Ruyi didn't say anything, and left with a few little girls.

If the guess is correct, Liu Wanwan must have colluded with Mr. Zhao San.

Mother Liu Wanwan and her daughter always thought that crying and crying could be invincible, but the third son of Zhao also thought that such a woman was interesting, and the two of them really couldn't understand what was going on.

They all held hands and talked alone, what else could be going on.

Unexpectedly, Liu Mengxue made such a fuss in the Prime Minister's Mansion, knowing that the third son is not a good thing, it is strange that Liu Wanwan still wants to marry the third son.

However, now is not the time to meddle in such nosy matters, Liu Ruyi just sent Linglong to go back and tell the old lady truthfully that as her elder sister, her younger sister is not justifiably disciplined.

Fortunately, Liu Wanwan didn't know about this plan.

Otherwise, if you are coaxed by the third son, why don't you say everything?

"Ruyi, don't be angry." Mu Zitan advised her, seeing that her complexion was not good.

"I'm not angry, but Mengxue, don't be angry." Liu Ruyi turned her head and looked at Liu Mengxue.

"I'm not angry that she hooked up with the third son, but I'm angry that she doesn't love herself. After all, she is a younger sister. The third son is so miserable, why did she fall in love with the third son?" Liu Mengxue kicked a small stone angrily.

That's right.

Several people returned to the original place, sat down to drink tea, and waited for the result.

Because I saw disgusting things during the day, I couldn't even eat. In the evening, it was almost dark, and I had already drank several pots of tea, and it was basically over.

Mr. Jing Zhaoyin and Geng quickly came over with a pamphlet and reported, "A total of 43 bones were dug out from the fish pond, most of which were more than ten years old, and seven of them were nearly a year old."

"A total of 22 bones were excavated from the small courtyard, with new and old dates. Seventeen of them showed obvious signs of pregnancy."

"In a deserted courtyard next to the eldest lady's yard, three bones were dug up, all of which were fresh for nearly a year. There is a bamboo forest behind the second lady's yard, and two bones were dug out in it, which were also nearly a year old."

After the report was over, everyone's faces turned ugly. Listen, it's clear that the eldest lady and the second lady also committed the crime.

The Zhao family used to be proud that all their children came from the belly of the eldest wife, and there were basically no concubines.

Is this the truth?The pregnant concubine was beaten to death and buried?

shudder.

Liu Ruyi didn't feel any better yet, but Liu Mengxue and Liu Jiaren were trembling with fright. Their aunt also lived under the hands of the eldest lady from the Zhao family, so it was lucky that she didn't get killed.

Mu Zitan held Liu Ruyi's clothes tightly, and said in a trembling voice, "Ruyi, my family..."

"What is your family? Your Mu family doesn't have too many concubines, but I know that there are also three aunts, right? You have all younger brothers and sisters from concubines, so what are you afraid of? Besides, your mother doesn't look like that people."

Mu Zitan breathed a sigh of relief, and Liu Ruyi rubbed the top of her hair, "Silly girl, don't think wildly."

Mu Zitan pushed her hard and almost turned over with the chair, Mu Zitan's face became angry and said: "Who is a silly girl, when you call me a girl, you don't even think about it, you are about the same age as me? "

The group of people who were still in a low mood were all amused.

When the result came out, Liu Ruyi saw that it was getting late, so she took a few people back home. Liu Mengxue didn't want to stay at Zhao's house, so she followed her back home.

As soon as she entered the mansion, Liu Mengxue scratched her hair a few times, and went straight to the old lady's yard in a panic.

Liu Jiaren behind her saw Liu Mengxue doing this, and said with a smile, "Why do I think that Third Sister is a bit smarter now."

She was slapped on the back by Liu Ruyi, and ran away screaming strangely.

Sure enough, as soon as she entered the old lady's yard, she heard Liu Mengxue kneeling at the door and crying, "Grandmother, I was originally ignorant and caused trouble for you and father. Now I don't know how. The daughter shuddered and begged the grandmother to let her granddaughter stay at home for a few days, but the granddaughter was really scared."

The old lady leaned on a cane, let Susu support her, and stood at the door, looking at Liu Mengxue.

After a glance, he saw Liu Ruyi coming over, and quickly asked, "Ruyi, what do you think?"

"A total of 43 bones were excavated from the fish pond, most of which were more than ten years old, and seven of them were nearly one year old. A total of 22 bones were excavated from the small courtyard, with new and old dates. The skeleton showed obvious signs of pregnancy."

"In a deserted courtyard next to the eldest lady's yard, three bones were dug up, all of which were fresh for nearly a year. There was a bamboo forest behind the second lady's yard, and two bones were dug out of it, which were also nearly a year old." Liu Ruyi No statement, just reported what Jing Zhaoyin said today.

The old lady seemed to have aged a lot all of a sudden, "I see, Mengxue will stay."
