Madam Ma was stunned.
Rongyang's heart tightened.
Madam Ma asked cautiously: "What do you mean, Crown Princess?"
"It literally means, don't you understand?"
Seeing that Mrs. Ma was panicking again, Rong Yang kept winking at Mrs. Ma, but Mrs. Ma only cared about her family at the moment and didn't pay attention to Rong Yang's hints at all.
"Please tell me clearly what happened to the old slave's children and grandchildren."
Chiyang was still calm and glanced at Caixia, who threw a bloody purse in front of Mrs. Ma.
The purse had long lost its original appearance. It was not only covered by black and red blood, but also had a corner burned off, making it difficult to recognize for a while.
Madam Ma glanced at it twice, and the more she looked, the more familiar she felt. She suddenly grabbed it and looked at it carefully. After a while, she stood up excitedly, grabbed Caixia's hand, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Where did this purse come from?!"
Caixia used her skill to pull out her hand and backed away with a cold face.
At this time, a guard who came in with Chiyang came forward and said: "Your Highness, according to the instructions of the Crown Princess, the subordinates followed the route that the Ma family left and found clues. Finally, they were found in the barren mountains fifty miles outside the city. We found no trace of the Ma family, but all of them have been killed."
Madam Ma stumbled towards the guard.
"Why are my children and grandchildren dead?!"
The guard drew a knife across his chest, frightening Mrs. Ma's approach, and said coldly: "They were killed by bad guys. The Crown Princess showed great compassion and ordered us to take their bodies to Yi Zhuang and bury them on another day!"
Madam Ma's eyes completely lost their luster, her mouth opened and closed, and suddenly she collapsed on the ground and started crying.
"I am the one who harmed you!"
Rongyang felt extremely desperate at this time. He had no idea that his second brother would be so incompetent in doing things. He would not dispose of the body cleanly after killing someone, leaving such a huge hidden danger!
Mrs. Ma's cries stopped suddenly. She raised her head and looked at Rong Yang and then Chiyang with eyes full of hatred, as if she was thinking about who was the murderer of her family.
Chiyang said slowly: "Mrs. Ma, you know very well whether I am innocent or not. I only need witnesses to prove my innocence, not to kill people to silence me."
Madam Ma immediately understood, and crawled up to Li Jingxing on her knees, crying: "Your Highness, it was Aunt Rong who sent someone to ask the old slave to throw the raw monkshood into the medicine jar. In order to win favor, Aunt Rong did not hesitate to poison herself and frame the Crown Princess. Please give me a clear warning, Your Highness!”
The reason why she took the risk and agreed to Nanny Qi to frame Chiyang was to have money so that her children and grandchildren could live a more prosperous life. Now that her children and grandchildren are dead, what worries do she have?
She only blames herself for being temporarily blinded by money. She believed that the Rong family would spare their lives. She hated it so much!
Before Li Jingxing could say anything, Rongyang got angry first and kicked Madam Ma hard.
"You dog slave is talking nonsense. If you bite the Crown Princess, you won't bite Aunt Rong. Who gave you the courage!"
Madam Ma fell to the ground, spat out a mouthful of blood, and stared at Rongyang bitterly.
"Master Rong knows whether the old slave has bitten Aunt Rong!"
"Your Highness, if I tell any lies, I will let my whole family become lonely ghosts after death and never enter reincarnation!"
This was a very vicious oath. Even Rong Yang couldn't justly say that Mrs. Ma was deceiving Li Jingxing with her clever words and seduction.
Rongyang knelt on the ground: "Your Highness, my little sister is pure and kind. She would never do something as vicious as murder. Someone must have framed her. Whether it is framing the Crown Princess or the little sister, it will be successful. This The plan is extremely cunning, I beg Your Highness to understand it clearly!"
Mrs. Ma laughed sadly: "Mr. Rong, Aunt Rong wants to step on the Crown Princess to win favor. Everyone knows her evil intentions. Do you think His Highness is blind?"
Mrs. Ma was determined to die, but now she had no worries, so she made up her mind to kill Rong Yunyun to avenge her family!
Rong Yunyun was still unconscious and knew nothing about what was happening outside, but Grandma Qi and Weeping Liu heard it clearly, and their faces were already pale with fear. Especially Grandma Qi, who had been in direct contact with Mrs. Ma, was dripping with cold sweat on her back. .
Rong Yang still wanted to make excuses, so Li Jingxing asked Madam Ma, "Do you have any evidence that Rong ordered you to do so?"
Madam Ma was stunned for a moment, then took out a gold bracelet from her arms and raised it above her head.
"Your Highness, this is one of the deposits that Grandma Qi gave to me when I reached an agreement with Grandma Qi."
Madam Ma was a bit scheming, fearing that Aunt Qi would kill the donkey afterwards, so she pretended to be greedy and begged for the gold bracelet from Aunt Qi.
Aunt Qi's heart skipped a beat in the room. At that time, she thought Mrs. Ma was simply short-sighted and only after money, and the gold bracelet had no special mark, so she left it with Mrs. Ma. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be evidence against her.
I regret it!
Fortunately, there are no special marks. The worst thing is that you will deny it to death!
Li Jingxing glanced at Xiao Fuzi, who walked to the door curtain and said to Nanny Qi in the inner room: "Nanny Qi, please come out and answer."
Aunt Qi walked out bravely, knelt down and cried out.
"Your Highness, Mrs. Ma is slandering others, and this old slave has been wronged!"
Madam Ma wished she could go over and tear up Nanny Qi with her hands.
Xiao Fuzi asked the people in Luomei Courtyard, "Does anyone recognize this is the gold bracelet on Grandma Qi's hand?"
Everyone bowed their heads in silence. For a long time, a round-faced maid of thirteen or fourteen years old raised her hands tremblingly and stammered: "I have something to report."
Seeing that she was very frightened, Xiao Fuzi showed a smile and said, "Don't be afraid of you. No one dares to harm you if you know what to say."
Aunt Qi flicked the knife in the eye. Although the little maid was afraid, she still had the courage to speak: "This slave likes to observe what others are wearing. Two days ago, Aunt Qi went to the kitchen. When she came back, she had gold in her hand. The bracelet is gone.”
It was actually because Grandma Qi's big gold bracelet was so shiny that she couldn't help but want to peek at it.
Aunt Qi suddenly felt despair. This little maid had blocked her escape route.
"Your Highness, it's all the sin slave's fault. The sin slave was dissatisfied with the Crown Princess for robbing the young lady's love again and again, and he held a grudge, so he took it upon himself to frame the Crown Princess. The old slave deserved his death, but I beg Your Highness not to implicate the young lady!"
Li Jingxing sneered: "You, a slave, dare to make decisions for your master to such an extent. Do you think Gu is a fool in your eyes?"
Li Jingxing has been in power for a long time, and his aura is not angry but powerful. He usually restrains himself and is not obvious, but now he deliberately unleashes it, which is not something that Nanny Qi, who was born as a merchant servant, can bear.
Facing Li Jingxing, who was full of aura, Grandma Qi was completely helpless and speechless. The rest of her sophistry was stuck in her throat, and she was trembling all over.
