Chapter 473: reach out and be caught
Chapter 473 Reach out and be caught
"Soak your feet?"
Sisters Qi Yuhuan and Qi Yujie were so angry that they almost vomited blood.
Qi Yujie couldn't bear it anymore, pointed at Chu Nanzhi angrily, and cursed loudly: "Chu, don't go too far, even if you are a princess in the servant's house, you can't be so presumptuous."
"I'm really sorry, Auntie, I'm going to be presumptuous today."
Chu Nanzhi put on a confident posture and sat down directly in front of a stone bench in the center of the courtyard.
This unscrupulous and arrogant gesture made Lin Jinxiao almost laugh out loud. If he hadn't already guessed some clues she gave, he really thought the lady was messing around.
Calmly took the crutch from Yin Liuxuan's hand, and he also walked slowly to Chu Nanzhi and sat down.
Looking fixedly at the two uncles with cloudy faces, he smiled calmly and said, "Uncle Three and Uncle Six came to Luyan Port not far away, and my nephew and concubine never went to pick them up in person. , It's really rude, why don't you come and sit down, let's soak your feet together."
The cold tone was full of ridicule.
"Absurd, simply absurd."
Lin Tingkai's face was swollen with anger, he glanced at Lin Tingyan angrily, and said displeasedly: "Lao Liu, why do you just let the two of them mess around in this man's house like this?"
Lin Tingyan snorted in his ear disapprovingly: "There is no reason to have both fish and bear's paw, the third brother should be able to understand this truth."
Lin Tingkai knew he was reminding himself that Wu Enrong and the Qi family could only protect one side.
This is embarrassing.
One side is my confidant and think tank, and the other side is my own cash cow. It is difficult to choose which one to choose.
Although Zhao Guangyuan has a good relationship with Wu Enrong, he is not a master who can be manipulated at will. Only the Qi family can continuously send money to Jingling City to help him achieve success.
If the Qi family is completely overthrown, it will not be easy to acquire such a wealthy businessman again.
At the moment when he was in trouble, Lin Tingyan made him stunned and walked over to Lin Jinxiao and Chu Nanzhi and sat down.
Lin Tingyan had already noticed that the nephew and daughter-in-law did not want to invite everyone to soak their feet, but had other purposes, and with an attitude of watching the fun, he smiled and said to the couple: "This king is really tired, let's soak your feet." Refreshing is also good.”
Hearing this, all the anger in Jiang Xueyi's heart was written on his face, and he was no longer calm and reserved in the past.
He didn't know Beibin Wang well, but no matter what, he shouldn't help Lin Jinxiao and Chu Nanzhi.
He walked up to Tang Ru with a bitter face, and said in a low voice, "Governor?"
With a sullen face, Tang Ru has been thinking hard about the intention of Princess Pingning's move, and has no intention of talking to him.
Jiang Xueyi had no choice but to walk up to Lin Tingkai, licking his face, and begged, "Your Highness, the funeral for mother-in-law is being held at home. King Pingning and King Beibin are really disrespectful to the undead."
Lin Tingkai thought about the words of the sixth child just now, and gradually became firm in his heart. Seeing the current situation, he can only give up his relatives to protect Wu Enrong.
I came all the way here because I was entrusted by his father-in-law to protect Wu Enrong. No matter what, I couldn't let that old guy feel cold.
"Jiang Yushi, let her do it. If your Qi family is really wronged, this king will definitely give you justice."
Lin Tingkai persuaded him pretending to be righteous.
Jiang Xueyi felt cold for a while.
Sure enough, they are all selfish masters. When they asked for money from the Qi family, they all sounded high-sounding.
Qi Yuhuan was livid with anger, snatched the saber from a sergeant angrily, pointed it straight at Chu Nanzhi, and roared tremblingly: "Chu Nanzhi, you ungrateful bitch, you can humiliate our sisters, but you want to If you want to humiliate my husband, I will die with you today."
Lin Jinxiao was shocked when he saw it, he didn't expect this woman to be so stupid, he stared at her coldly like a star: "Miss Qi, you have to think about what you are doing, you are doing it for someone who is not worth entrusting Pointing the sword at this king and concubine, do you want to put the lives of hundreds of people in the Qi family at risk?"
Looking at the sharp eyes projected by him, Qi Yuhuan's hand holding the knife kept shaking.
Lin Jinxiao took advantage of the situation and swiftly swung the sword, splitting the knife in her hand in two.
With a bang, all the broken swords fell to the ground.
Qi Yuhuan's entire arm was numb from the shock.
"Take it down."
Qi Yuhuan was still in shock when he was pinned to the ground by two sergeants.
"Sister."
"Lady."
Jiang Xueyi and Qi Yujie rushed over at the same time, but were stopped by the guards.
Chu Nanzhi had no abnormality on her face, she walked forward casually, watched the Qi family sisters quietly, and couldn't help sneering:
"In terms of kindness, our Qi and Chu families have never had it before. Your Qi family forcibly snatched my uncle into the mansion and didn't treat him well. Because of the two fishes, he was forced to take poison and commit suicide. It took so much effort. I can't repay the kindness of the Chu family by plotting and instigating the two sons-in-laws of my family to degenerate themselves."
After a slight pause for a few seconds, she glanced at Lin Jinxiao with relief, and continued: "As for everything I do, although I have some selfish intentions, everything is worthy of my conscience, so let's talk about it in detail. , the members of your Qi family are no more noble than others, apart from relying on the stinky money in their hands, they have learned to bully the weak, so what qualifications do they have to play with other people's fate?"
Thinking of the Zhang family who died in vain, and the mother and daughter of the Luo family who almost died, she became even more indignant: "Your Qi family has forced so many people to sell their sons and daughters over the years, and their families have been ruined. To be able to humiliate someone is to think that one day you will be humiliated."
After the words fell, Li Ce led the soldiers to bring up hot water.
Chu Nanzhi took out the alum powder and comfrey root she brought from her bosom, and gestured to everyone: "Don't you all want to know who killed Mrs. Zheng? The answer is actually very simple. I will let the murderer show his true form. .”
Everyone glanced at the two things she was holding in her hands, but few of them recognized them.
Li Ce called everyone to put the basins away, glanced at the comfrey root in her hand, and said in surprise, "Isn't this the comfrey we saw all over the mountains and plains in Cangshan today?"
"good."
Chu Nanzhi smiled and looked at Jiang Xueyi with a gloomy face: "Jiang Yushi, you think you are smart and think that you can clear up all suspicions by burning the horse stool, but you are so wrong, you rushed to the deep mountain in the middle of the night To commit a crime in the old forest, and to cover up the corpse with a murder, even if you cover everything up well, and you have Wu Taishou and Zheng Duyou who have taken the blame for you, you think it is perfect, but you forget one thing, you will be caught if you stretch out your hand Catch, what you do will always leave traces.”
"The humble official doesn't know what Princess Pingning will say."
Jiang Xueyi finally realized that it was ridiculous that she went to such lengths to search Qi's house, and it turned out that she suspected herself.
"No problem, I'll let you know what I'm talking about."
Chu Nanzhi pointed to several pairs of boots on the ground, and asked Qi Yuhuan sharply, "Which pair are the boots that Jiang Yushi replaced yesterday?"
Qi Yuhuan glanced cautiously at Jiang Xueyi, then at Lin Jinxiao who was sternly looking, his eyes were cold and terrifying, and pointed at the newest pair of black boots inside with confusion and panic.
