The unlucky county princess and the crown prince

The front hall of Linfu.

Lin Shangshu was a scarlet official. He was holding a cup of tea which was going to be cold, but he didn't move. His face was cold and frightening.

Yin Lisheng of shuntianfu coughed. "Lord Lin, the lower official has verified that the dead Biyu is indeed the servant girl of your mansion, and she is the servant who didn't sign the contract of life and death. Now she died in a terrible state. She said that she was first violently assaulted and then beaten to death. Biyu's parents have taken Linfu to the yamen, according to the laws of the imperial court, If you want to arrest the criminals and go to the Yamen for questioning, please forgive me. "

Being assaulted and beaten to death? Lin Shangshu's face turned black and said, "Mr. Li, it's about the reputation of the government of the state of Lin for a hundred years. You can't talk nonsense about that!"

Seeing that Lin Shangshu was angry, Li Sheng quickly got up and said: "the case involves the government of the state of Lin. I dare not take it lightly. I specially ordered two men to do the autopsy and came to the same conclusion. I dare to guarantee my life. What I have just said is true and there is no empty word."

Lin Shangshu's face is even blacker. It's a critical period for foreign missions to enter Beijing. Although the Ministry of rites is responsible for the reception, and there is not much for him as a minister of the Ministry of official affairs, he is a senior official of the second grade in the imperial court after all. It's not a good thing that such a dirty case happened at this time.

At this critical moment, Lin Shangshu subconsciously wants to bring down the case and check it slowly in the mansion. But in ordinary times, he almost knows nothing about the affairs in the mansion. He doesn't even know whose maid Jasper is. Yin Lisheng in Shuntian mansion is a person who doesn't depend on anyone. It's almost impossible to bring down the case.

"Somebody, go and ask the lady to come." Lin Shangshu's face was livid, and his eyebrows almost came together.

Zhu Hu quickly went and came back, "master, now the young lady is in charge of the house. These things are in the charge of the young lady, but she doesn't know."

Lin Shangshu was very upset and said angrily, "then hurry up and call the young lady over."

"Yes, slave, yes!" Zhu Hu's face flashed an imperceptible smile.

Before long, he Shuhui went to the front hall and saluted Lin Shangshu slightly. "I've met my father-in-law."

Lin Shangshu waved his hand impatiently, "excuse me, I ask you, whose servant girl is that Jasper?"

He Shuhui has just taken over the central feedback, and almost all the things handed over to her are in a mess. Of course, she understands that her mother-in-law is deliberately making trouble for her. She says frankly, "it's the maid of the third lady Lin Zimei's yard."

Second room? Lin Shangshu's face was overcast. "What do you want to say about the death of Jasper?"

He Shuhui's face didn't change and kicked the ball back. "If you go back to my father-in-law, my mother-in-law is always dealing with this matter. A few days ago, my mother-in-law paid five hundred taels of silver from the account of the government to make pension for Biyu's parents. As for other things, my daughter-in-law doesn't know."

After all, Jiang is old and spicy. Lin Shangshu pondered for a moment, and didn't want to expose his affairs in the house too much in front of outsiders. He said, "Lord Li, you wait a moment, I'll come."

"Mr. Lin, please. I'll wait here."

Lin Shangshu came out of the front hall, and went straight to Zhong's yard to see what the woman was up to.

Zhong was burning incense to worship Buddha. Seeing Lin Shangshu coming, he knew what he was doing. He was not happy but surprised. However, he pretended to be calm and said with a smile, "why did the master come back so early today? Mother Zhou, give me tea quickly

Zhou Ma Ma nimbly brought up a cup of tea, but Lin Shang Shu knocked it over and said, "what good things have you done?"
