Ms. Guo became more serious than ever before, "The old lady found cinnabar in her candle. It was after the second sister-in-law killed Aunt Wen and before she blackmailed the Li family. In the meantime, I can't guarantee that she didn't think of doing something to me!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was immediately stunned.
Mrs. Guo had a small part of Wei Mansion's treasure in her hands, among which the purchase of paper candles was under her control. Therefore, Ms. Guo was highly suspicious of the cinnabar candle, and was immediately sent back to the third room for investigation. If this She had a problem at that time, could she be mistaken for committing suicide out of fear of crime?
Mrs. Guo's eyes were full of anger, "Ms. Lin, you actually have your thoughts on me!"
"I don't!"
Ms. Lin immediately retorted, but her rebuttal was so weak.
Because she has been telling lies today, no one believes her words at all.
However, everyone only guessed half of it right.
It was not the Guo family who Lin wanted to make him commit suicide out of fear of crime, but Princess Yuanheng. Because Mrs. Guo had always been on guard against Mrs. Lin, it was not easy for Mrs. Lin to take action, and it would be easy for her to cause trouble afterwards. The person she wanted to kill was Princess Yuanheng.
Framing Guo was just to draw everyone's attention.
So later Guo easily found the "murderer" and cleared himself of the crime.
Princess Yuanheng already knew the truth about this matter from Li Qingyi, but she did not clarify the matter.
There is nothing wrong with letting Guo think so.
Of course, Li Qingyi would not explain, lest the matter become more complicated. She said, "They say rabbits don't eat grass beside their nests. The second lady is really different from ordinary people. She specifically looks for people she knows to attack."
Mrs. Lin gritted her silver teeth, "I said it! I admit Aunt Wen's death and the blackmailing of the Li family, but the old lady's eyes have nothing to do with me! I have no intention of targeting the third brother or sister!"
Li Qingyi smiled softly and glanced at Miao Hui, "Second Madam, you really don't admit it?"
Lin's heart was filled with huge waves.
Li Qingyi's meaning was very clear. If she didn't admit the matter, she would ask Miao Hui to tell more, and she would definitely die by then!
But if she admits that she hurt the old witch's eyes, won't she die?
If you admit it, you will die, if you don’t admit it, you will die...
Lin's eyes moved towards Miao Hui, her mind spinning crazily. Then, she looked at Li Qingyi with a sneer, "No need for Miao Hui to say it, I will say it myself!"
Li Qingyi was slightly surprised, "Second Madam, you finally thought about it?"
Mrs. Lin sneered, "I do know Miaohui, but what I asked for was not for myself! It was for my aunt's little cousin! My cousin...she was ruined and defiled by evil people..."
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but take a breath.
Ms. Lin looked at everyone's expressions and showed sadness, "She suffered such a catastrophe and her life was worse than death. And she had already made a decision at that time. If she couldn't hide this matter, her life would be over! So... That’s why I found Miaohui and asked her for a way to deal with it..."
Mrs. Guo raised her eyebrows, "How do you know Miaohui can help you?"
It has to be said that Ms. Guo is very perceptive. Ever since Ruyuan said that Mr. Zou had an advantage over Ms. Lin, she has never forgotten this matter.
Even if Lin Wenye owed gambling debts, it was not like the Zou family couldn't get the money. If Mrs. Lin hadn't taken a fancy to the Zou family's generous dowry, she might not have let Lin Wenye marry the Zou family.
To take a step back, even if Zou couldn't afford the 20,000 taels, he could still scrape together 18,000 taels, right? There’s nothing wrong with finding other people to figure out the rest. new
But Zou didn't take any points, and asked Lin for everything.
Mrs. Lin is already a married woman. No matter how much she helps her younger brother, she will not commit murder and blackmail to pay off his gambling debts! Could someone as smart as her not see that Zou was taking advantage of her? Are you so willing to be blackmailed by Zou?
Taking a step back, even if Mrs. Lin really couldn't bear to let go of her younger brother, couldn't bear the torture of him by the people in the gambling house, and wanted to raise the money as soon as possible, she could still open her mouth to Wei Shiyuan.
Although the Wei family is not rich enough, it is not a big problem to come up with a few thousand taels. The two have been married for many years, but Lin didn't say a word about it, preferring to go
kill?
Therefore, Guo felt that Lin must have a big secret!
Mrs. Lin hated her clinging to her and could only answer her, "I don't know if Miaohui can help. I just heard that she is good at women's diseases and has a good heart, so I just held on to it." I hope I found her. Miao Hui gave me some ideas, and I told my aunt. It was that simple! But I didn’t expect Miao Hui to misunderstand that it was me who wanted to use this method!"
She turned to look at Li Qingyi: "Miss Li, I want to ask you! What do you want to do by digging out these old things? Is it possible that, in fact, it was you who hurt the old lady's eyes, and you will think that I blackmailed you?" Auntie, are you going to hold this moment on my head?!"
After hearing this, everyone looked at Li Qingyi in shock.
But Li Qingyi sat there motionless, with a calm expression.
She glanced across the room and smiled softly, "The second lady is born to be a good liar, and her ability to confuse right and wrong is unparalleled. Back then, you were not perfect before you left the cabinet. In order to conceal the truth, you found Miao Hui is looking for a way to deal with it. Now in order to avoid responsibility, you are blaming the incident on your deceased sister! Mrs. Lin, is there any truth in your mouth? "
Lin's face was ferocious, "You are still talking nonsense!"
"Oh, your aunt and cousin have already gone to hell, so I can't ask them about it, but do you really think that no one else knows what happened back then?"
Mrs. Guo was shocked: "Qingyi, are you telling the truth? Did Mrs. Lin really enter the house by breaking through the wall?"
"Ms. Guo! Shut up!"
Mrs. Guo raised her chin slightly and looked at Ms. Lin disdainfully, as if she was looking at something dirty. "Aren't you afraid of slanted shadows if you are upright? Since you have never done it before, why are you afraid of others telling you?"
"you!"
Mrs. Lin's face turned green with anger, but there was nothing she could do to stop them from investigating further.
Mrs. Wei also asked in a deep voice: "Girl of the Li family, there are some things you should not say carelessly."
Li Qingyi smiled and said: "It concerns the face of the Wei family. If the second lady hadn't been too tough, I wouldn't have revealed this matter. Unfortunately, the second lady insisted on fighting me to the end. How could I not help her?" ?Besides, the old lady doesn’t want to be kept in the dark by the second lady, does she?”
Mrs. Lin suddenly turned her head to look at Mrs. Wei: "Madam, this is not true! My daughter-in-law has worked hard for many years since she got married. Isn't it worth the three or five slanders from this damn girl?"
Madam Wei glanced at Miao Hui, who looked uneasy, and said coldly: "If you are innocent, I will give you justice."
Mrs. Lin's heart felt cold and she couldn't even kneel anymore and fell to the side.
Li Qingyi waved when he saw this, and Chang Lan immediately left the room.
Miao Hui was taken down and tied up with Ru Yuan. A man in a white robe wearing a curtain slowly followed Chang Lan in. Behind him was a short woman, also wearing a veil, covering her head. Lost face.
His eyes only glanced briefly, then he raised his hands and said, "Zhao has met Mrs. Wei and all of you ladies."
As soon as Mrs. Lin heard this voice, she suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. She forced herself to stabilize her emotions so that her body would not tremble and reveal her guilty conscience, "Miss Li, how can you let a foreign man enter the Wei Dynasty at will?" The backyard of the house! If something goes wrong, can you afford it?"
Mrs. Wei's eyes were as cold as rolled ice. After Lin heard the man's voice, her pupils shrank violently and her shoulders stiffened instantly. Only a fool could not tell that this man was an acquaintance of hers!
"Ms. Lin, shut your mouth!"
Ms. Lin bit her lip and slowly raised her eyes to look at the person.
The man in white robe also cast his eyes on her, then slowly took off his hat and said, "Ms. Lin, do you still recognize me?"
