Chapter 6 A bitter confession

Huan'er lifted up her scattered hair and combed it behind her ears, looking coldly at the mother and daughter who kept wiping their tears with a handkerchief.

"Huan'er, how did the eldest lady fall into the water?" This woman was a bit shorter than the previous one. She looked petite and less domineering.

At this time, she was sobbing and looking at Huan'er with sadness in her eyes. Even the young girl standing next to her who was somewhat similar to her was wiping away tears.

But Huan'er squeezed out a few bitter smiles from between her teeth, raised her voice and said, "Third Grandma, why did my girl end up in trouble? I have to ask the second girl."

The third grandma raised her tearful eyes and looked at Mo Yunxiang who was lying on the ground, intentionally or unintentionally. Mo Yunxiang was also stunned, suddenly jumped up, and shouted at the top of his voice: "My brother fell into the water, it has nothing to do with me!"

"

"This..." The beautiful woman was also puzzled for a while, and muttered: "I know that the three girls in our family have never gotten along. But no matter what, it can't be related to murder. Maybe... there is another love?

"

As she spoke, she glanced at Mo Yunxiang's mother. Her eyes flickered and her tone was not firm. Although she sounded like she was defending Mo Yunxiang, there seemed to be hesitation in her tone.

"Humph! My sister!" The second grandma stomped her foot angrily, and turned to her and said, "Don't listen to Huan'er's nonsense. When He Lu fell into the water, Xiang'er was still in the house, where could he go?

Harm her?"

"Yes, I saw the second daughter-in-law coming home with a carriage and horse. If she is the one who harmed the eldest daughter-in-law, how can it be believed?" The speaker was Mo Yunxi, the daughter of the third grandmother. She and

His mother also had tears in her eyes and her voice was choked with sobs.

She spoke very softly, but her words came out clearly, and her pitiful look made people feel distressed. These words could not help but make people disbelieve her.

Then, everyone's eyes fell back on Huan'er. At this time, Huan'er had made up his mind to die and no longer had any scruples.

She took a step forward, put her hands on her hips and spat heavily: "Bah! Who in Tokyo doesn't know that you two sisters vent their anger out of the same nostril! Speaking of which, our second mistress Zhang Yun'er also had a body made of gold and jade. Father and brother

They were all officials, but because of the imperial reform, they had no choice but to become concubines of the Mo family! However, the Mo family was not prosperous, so the second mistress encouraged the elder man to take his personal maid into the house.

It’s our third grandma, Li Xian’e! Since you have such a relationship, why is it strange that you protect each other!”

Huan'er shouted at the top of her voice, shaking off all the Mo family's household affairs. The two young apprentices from the medical clinic also had their faces burning and hurriedly turned around and entered the inner hall.

Zhang Yun'er's face turned red with anger, and she shouted loudly: "Come here! Drag this naked bastard out and kill him!"

"No! Sister!" Li Xian'e hurriedly came forward, gently put her hand on Zhang Yun'er's shoulder, and said while wiping her tears: "Today is Shangyuan, and one life has been lost in the family. I am afraid that I will kill again."

The blame given by gods and Buddhas is largely unknown."

"Hmph!" Zhang Yun'er shook her shoulders and said angrily: "I don't eat fast and chant Buddha's name, so I don't have a belly as wide as yours!"

Then, she turned her head and scolded the female envoys behind her: "You are all deaf! Why don't you take action!"

The two female envoys looked at each other, bent their knees and replied, "Yes!" Then they walked up side by side and pulled Huan'er's arm, saying, "Sister Huan, we can't help you anymore."

Huan'er was not willing to give in easily. She shouted: "Get out of the way!" She stretched out her hand and pushed. The two female envoys were completely off guard, and they were overturned at the feet of Zhang Yun'er and Li Xian'e on the spot.

, kept shouting "Ouch!", "Ouch!"

"Do you, the Mo family, want to kill me just because you have so many adults? Haha! You kill people indiscriminately. If the Kaifeng Mansion investigates the case, no one will be able to escape the blame!" Huan'er looked like he was crazy, and his already combed hair was gone again.

The clothes were spread out. The two pairs of mother and daughter, as well as the female envoys present, were stunned. They had never seen such a formation before, and they were stunned for a moment.

Zhang Yun'er stroked her chest gently and her voice finally softened: "The Mo family treats you well, why do you have to push me so hard!"

"Do you treat me well?" Huan'er rolled up her sleeves and smiled coldly: "From the whole Mo family, we, the eldest girl, are the only ones who really treat me well! What kind of calculations did you two mother and daughter have? Don't think that I don't treat you well."

I know! Hum! Our eldest daughter’s aunt passed away early. Over the years, Da Lang has been slow to appoint a mistress. You are staring at this lady with your eyes, thinking I don’t know? You want to be a mistress, but you can’t get past my eldest daughter.

This level! So...then the second girl became murderous..."

The more she spoke, the more excited she became. She stretched out her hand and pointed at Mo Yunxiang, who was still lying on the ground. At the end of her words, her voice became unclear.

Mo Yunxiang shook his head quickly and shouted in panic: "I didn't! I didn't! I was wronged..."

It seems that at this moment, Huan'er became the official who tried the case in Dali Temple, and Mo Yunxiang became the female prisoner.

"If you really suspect that Xiang'er did this, you can go and beat the Dengwen drum in Kaifeng Mansion instead of making noise here." Zhang Yun'er was also so angry that her voice trembled, and her words were difficult to speak.

"Oops! Why are you banging the drum?" Li Xian'e pulled her again, looked at the circle of female relatives and said: "The things at home are already annoying enough, but why don't you worry that the problem is not big enough and have to alert the government? So?

I said, there is no need to beat this drum, it is my own business. Since the eldest girl has gone, we should report the funeral as soon as possible. All relatives and friends at home, as well as people from the fourth department and the sixth bureau, have to attend to it, and send a few more

The reliable young man will go to Xishu to find Dalang and ask him to come back soon. When Dalang comes back, we will have a backbone and things will be easier to handle."

She shed tears, then turned to Huan'er and said, "Think carefully, was there anyone suspicious before and after the eldest girl fell into the water? Although we can't definitely say it was the second girl who did it, we still have to find out."

When Li Xian'e said these words, Zhang Yun'er changed his expression first, turned his head and said, "I don't know how many people fall into the water and drown in Jinming Lake every year. It's impossible to find out all of them. When you say that, you clearly still doubt Xiang'er!"

Hearing this, Li Xian'e felt as if she had been severely punished. She quickly took a step back, shortened her body a little and said, "Sister, I don't dare to have such thoughts. It's just... It's just that He Lu is the apple of Da Lang's palm after all, so she can't just keep it secret like this."

Bai's death, there must be an explanation."

"Explain? Who will be responsible for this explanation?" Zhang Yun'er was furious, and her voice rose unknowingly.

Her face was red and her ears were red, and her eyes were like two bells, staring closely at Li Xian'e. Li Xian'e was like a maid receiving punishment, nodding and bending, not daring to breathe, so she could only keep saying: "Sister, you talk too much..."

Seeing that her mother was angry, Mo Yunxi stepped forward and inserted herself between Li Xian'e and Zhang Yun'er. She looked at Zhang Yun'er with angry eyes and said angrily: "Second Grandma, please don't be angry. My mother just asked Huan'er if she had anything."

He's a suspicious person, but he didn't say anything about the second female brother."

Huan'er had really made up her mind, and before Zhang Yun'er could say anything, she rushed to say: "There is a suspicious person, but this person is extraordinary and our family cannot easily offend him."

"Who?" Li Xian'e asked anxiously with her eyes widened.

Huan'er looked at her and replied calmly: "Prince Duan."

Everyone couldn't help but take a breath when they heard this. King Duan was the brother of a concubine from an official family, and he was a figure in Yunjian'er. How could he harm Mo Yunxiao, a stranger? So, after being surprised, everyone also

I think what Huan'er said is extremely ridiculous.

Zhang Yun'er was so angry that she pointed at Huan'er and said to Li Xian'e: "Crazy! This girl must be crazy! It's disrespectful to slander the royal family, let alone shout it out so blatantly. If outsiders heard it, it would be a disaster.

disaster?"

"Do you think I'm talking nonsense?" Huan'er glared at her angrily, then turned to Li Xian'e and said: "Prince Duan also came to Jinmingchi to watch the dragon boat competition, but for some unknown reason, he suddenly got up and left. How could he be?

Such people, coming and going in all weathers, numerous attendants and boys, as well as mules and horses to clear the way, blocked the entrance to Jinming Pond. The eldest girl was fished out by two kind-hearted brothers.

Unexpectedly, I couldn't go out for a while, so I had to wait for King Duan's carriage to drive away before I could leave. Look at this day, even wearing a coat, I'm shivering. My girl is soaking in the cold water, the cold air enters her lungs, and it lingers.

At the end of the day, this is... this is..."

At the end of the sentence, she choked up again, covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief and started to cry.

"What a life-threatening bitch! The more you talk about it, the more ridiculous it becomes. Do you still want to sue King Duan?" Zhang Yun'er shouted loudly, extremely angry.

But Li Xian'e just sighed softly and said: "Perhaps the eldest daughter of our family has such a difficulty in her life. Not to mention that we can't afford to offend King Duan, but even if we can, it is an unintentional mistake and the lawsuit will be taken to Dali Temple

Even if you go, you won't be sentenced to death. Alas..."

She shook her head and said to Zhang Yun'er beside her: "Let's call some servants to carry the eldest daughter back. Then tell the people in the Fourth Division and Sixth Bureau that the funeral must not be careless."

Zhang Yun'er had a fire in her heart that she couldn't vent, so she could only say coldly: "My sister has thought carefully, just do as you say." After saying that, she turned around, taking Lu Yu and two personal women with her.

Let go.

The tears on Mo Yunxiang's face were not yet dry, so he had to get up angrily, cover his cheeks and follow.

Just when Mo Yunxiang was going out, a man stumbled in and bumped into her shoulder hard. The man was startled, turned around and saluted, and said, "Brother, please forgive me."

Mo Yunxiang said nothing, just glanced at him and walked away silently.

At this time, everyone's eyes fell on the young man. He stayed at the door, looked at Huan'er, and said in a trembling voice for a long time: "Brother, she..."

Huan'er nodded with tears in her eyes. The man was stunned for a moment, then rushed into the inner hall, and then there was a burst of heartbreaking crying. Huan'er heard it and started sobbing again. Li Xian'e and Mo Yunxi also

Holding the handkerchief, I wiped my tears secretly.
