It's a pity that more details are difficult to find, and Jiang Nianjiao can only wait for dawn.

As for whether to report the crime or not, naturally we can only make a decision after reporting it to Jiang Fang.

The night was long, starless, moonless and windless.

The Jiang Mansion is destined to have a long sleepless night tonight.

Jiang Zhi stayed in front of her mother's bed, seemingly planning to stay until dawn.

She looked at Yu Se blankly, like a puppet.

On the side, Youlian was arguing with Jiang Nianjiao.

Youlian wanted to clean up the body quickly so that he could be buried early.

Jiang Nianjiao wanted to wait until dawn and wait for Jiang Fang to come back before being buried.

And this dispute naturally ended with Jiang Nianjiao winning.

Feeling resentful in his heart, after breaking up with Jiang Nianjiao on bad terms, he only looked at Jiang Zhi aside.

She walked to Jiang Zhi and said, "Second Miss, no matter what, you should cheer up! Madam would not know how to be sad if she saw you like this. What's more, the murderer has not been brought to justice yet, don't you think so?" Are you willing to watch that person get away with it?"

When he said this, You Ling seemed to be looking at something.

When Jiang Zhi heard this, she just glanced at Youling blankly. The expression seemed to be waiting for her to say something else, but also seemed to be not listening to anything.

Youlian burst into tears and said, "Second Miss, you just heard that this bird's nest was indeed sent by the eldest lady, and even the person who sent the bird's nest was arranged by the eldest lady. The fact that she killed Madam is already so clear. However, she still wants to continue the investigation. If she continues the investigation like this, Madam is afraid that she will die without knowing anything."

"Second Miss, Madam's death is really unjust. The eldest lady sent her a bird's nest, and Madam also gave her a hairpin in return. I thought she was a good person, but Madam was not prepared. She didn't want her, but she wanted Madam to die. And you just heard that Let’s talk about that person, she doesn’t even want to let my wife live in peace until she dies.”

"Second Miss, you must avenge my wife!"

The words of sorrow are heartbreaking.

Jiang Zhi closed her eyes and said with a very painful expression, "Didn't she tell you that if it was really her fault, would she invite herself to the Yushitai?"

Hearing this, You Ling only said, "Second Miss, do you really believe her rhetoric? If she really thinks so, she shouldn't even investigate, but should just surrender. This case is so clear, why is there any need for investigation?" Study it more carefully? Moreover, she and her wife have never dealt with each other, and now she controls the Jiang family's middle-ranking minister. She clearly wants us to die."

"Then what do you think I should do? What can I do?" Jiang Zhi asked.

When Youling saw Jiang Zhi questioning her, she immediately leaned into Jiang Zhi's ear and started to move.

"If I let the master know about this first, even if the master is suspicious, he will definitely let the eldest lady go because she is his daughter."

"If we wait for her to surrender on her own, I'm afraid the day lily will be cold. According to my opinion, the second lady should go directly to the Yushitai to file a complaint tomorrow morning. As long as the Yushitai is alerted, the lady will be innocent. .”

Hearing this, Jiang Zhi frowned, "How could any of my sisters cause such a thing? If so, wouldn't the Jiang family become a joke? Besides, if it wasn't her... wouldn't it be counterproductive for me to act like this? Her reputation.”

You Ling just sighed and said, "Miss, you are too kind. She should attack Madam now, but she will dare to attack you tomorrow. When she killed Madam, did she ever consider your feelings? Did she ever think about Madam?" He is also a member of the Jiang family.”

"People say that revenge for killing one's mother is irreconcilable. Will the second lady spare this murderer?"

The more You Ling talked, the more excited he became, and the more Yu Se listened, the more disappointed he became.

She couldn't explain how she felt now.

One is his biological mother, and the other is his half-sister.

If she really went to sue Jiang Nianjiao, it wouldn't be just Jiang Nianjiao who was her enemy, it would be the entire Jiang family.

Not to mention whether Jiang Nianjiao's reputation will be ruined in the future, even if she enters the mansion as an adopted daughter, she will probably become the spokesperson of White Eyed Wolf.

After all, before she knew that she was really Jiang Fang's daughter, it was obvious to everyone that Jiang Fang was kind to her.

But if she didn't pursue this matter, would her mother die so unclearly? .

She knew her mother had made mistakes, but if she made mistakes again, wouldn't she have been punished? No matter how wrong she is, she won't be wrong

Die.

After a long time, she turned to look at Youling. Her eyes were obviously still full of struggle and hesitation.

"Youling, what you said makes sense, but the Jiang family is kind to me. Please let me think about it again."

After receiving Jiang Zhi's words, You Ling showed great disappointment, but she didn't say anything. She only took a deep look at Jiang Zhi and said, "Then Miss Second, think about it carefully, but time waits for no one. If you wait for the master tomorrow, Once you come back, it will be too late."

When Jiang Zhi heard this, she almost said, "I understand."

No one is destined to sleep tonight. Some people are looking for evidence to overturn the case all night long, and some are tossing and turning to make a choice between their mother and the Jiang family.

At dawn the next day, the first thing Jiang Nianjiao did was to prevent the Jiang family's servants from revealing anything about last night's events. Then he invited someone to bring back Jiang Fang, who was still in the palace, and told Jiang Fang Just say that the lady has had a miscarriage.

When she arranged these, Jiang Zhi was by her side.

Hearing that she never mentioned Yushitai and tried her best to block information in the mansion, it was clear that she wanted to suppress the matter with all her strength.

Jiang Zhi was frightened and disappointed.

It seemed that everything was as You Ling said. The oaths she made last night were just to stabilize herself.

After all, no murderer would take the initiative to admit that he is a murderer.

Jiang Nianjiao felt guilty in her heart. After all, although Yu Se's death was not his own fault, all the signs pointed to Cuozhu and the others.

Although she still couldn't believe that Tsodrup would do such a thing, they were the biggest suspects at the moment.

Although this matter was obviously controlled by someone and had nothing to do with him, it was because of his carelessness that Yu Se died after entering the Jiang Mansion.

So during breakfast, she only comforted her by saying, "Azhi, when dad comes back, I will hand over these matters to dad to handle them exactly."

Jiang Zhi said nothing, and even refused to give her a look.

Jiang Nianjiao knew that she didn't believe in him.

But she couldn't blame her right now, after all, she did look like the most suspicious person.

She could only hope that after finding Tsodrup and the others, the matter could be clarified.

Earlier today, she had arranged for the female secret guard in the courtyard to sneak to Nada's tavern.

After breakfast, Jiang Zhi only said that she would go back to her room first and wanted to rest for a while.

Jiang Nianjiao didn't think much and just nodded in agreement.

However, after Jiang Zhi, who was about to return to her room, left the main room, she did not go to the yard where she lived. She turned around and only planned to go out of the house.

However, today, all the doors of Jiang Mansion are closed, and even so, there are still many young servants guarding the door.

The ordinary people in the house didn't even dare to go out, but they didn't even dare to get close.

Looking at the posture at the door, Jiang Zhi knew that he probably wouldn't be able to get out today.

While she was disappointed, "Miss" who seemed to be disappointed with her answer last night suddenly appeared at some unknown time.

When Jiang Zhi heard someone calling his name, he naturally turned his head and looked over.

You Ling waved to her at this time, and then just said, "Miss, you want to go out."

Jiang Zhi nodded.

You Ling then said mysteriously, "I'm afraid neither the main entrance nor the small door in the past can be accessed. The eldest lady is afraid that this matter will be leaked, so she just won't let people go out. But there is a door in the house that should be passable." .”

After saying this, she just pulled Jiang Zhi and said, "Second Miss, you'd better go with me to change clothes before going over."

When Jiang Zhi heard that she could go out, she naturally followed Youling. After changing into the clothes of a handyman, Jiang Zhi led people outside the back kitchen. At this time, several men were carrying people in the small courtyard of the back kitchen. Holding the kitchen waste from Jiang Mansion.

As two large buckets of food waste were loaded onto a carriage.

You Ling just took advantage of the opportunity when the two men didn't notice and pushed Jiang Zhi into the gap between the big bucket of garbage.

There were also a few servants guarding the small entrance to the back kitchen today, but compared to the tighter security in the front yard, the guards in this back yard were obviously much laxer.

They only briefly glanced at the kitchen waste bin, then chatted with the driver for a few words, and then let the carriage pass easily.

.

As the carriage jolted, Jiang Zhi struggled to squeeze out of the gap in the carriage after leaving the Jiang Mansion.

Then, regardless of the carriage moving, she jumped out of the carriage.

But the speeding carriage obviously still made people unsteady, and Jiang Zhi almost rolled off the carriage.

Fortunately, this was not a busy city, and it was early in the morning, so no one noticed a girl rolling out of the food truck.

However, the groom driving in front obviously still felt the movement behind. They couldn't help but subconsciously turn their heads and look behind.

However, the trash can was intact at this time, and Jiang Zhi was in their blind spot.

Therefore, no one discovered Jiang Zhi's existence.

Jiang Zhi, who was covered in dust and embarrassed after the fall, took a long time to get up from the ground.

Just looking at the wooden fences and tiles in the surrounding market, she suddenly fell into a daze.

She rarely goes out alone, and she doesn't know where the Yushitai is now.

And just as she was standing on the street, a luxuriously decorated carving and fragrant wood carriage was heading towards Wangliufang from the direction of Huajie Street in Xicheng.

There were few pedestrians on the street at this time, and the carriage only sped along, raising dust.

The driver on the carriage was shouting loudly, and pedestrians on the road could only hear the wind and retreat.

It's just that Jiang Zhi's speed is still much slower than others.

Therefore, when the carriage came, although Jiang Zhi tried her best to dodge, she was quickly knocked down by the carriage.

The horse was frightened and the driver had to stop the carriage.

Before the coachman could speak, a man's lazy voice came from the carriage, "Slave dog, you want to kill me."

The coachman didn't care to scold Jiang Zhi, and could only say softly, "Master, forgive me, it was that reckless woman who bumped into our car just now. The horse was frightened and the master's driver was frightened."

After hearing this, the man just raised the curtain and asked after a while, "Woman? Are you dead?"
