Chapter 127: The whereabouts of the peace charm (8)
Chapter 127 The whereabouts of the peace talisman (8)
Ningxi was heartbroken.
Beside her, sat a man wearing a navy blue brocade suit, with a full sky, wide brows, resolute features, and sharp eyes. It was her compatriot brother Ma Guang, with a serious handwriting.
Ma Jinyan slapped Ning Xi severely: "It's all because of your presumptuous assertion that you made my mother become like this!"
Ning Xi has been afraid of this brother since she was a child. Although Ma Keqing always doesn't want to see her, he will not bully her. He is not as strict as Ma Jing. If he doesn't like him, he can beat her so that she can't find her.
She covered her swollen face and trembled slightly: "Fourth brother, it's Ning Yue, and it's all her fault. She knew my plan, so she deliberately asked my mother to wear her cloak, and called her The servant girl is with us...we thought our mother was her..."
Ma Jingyan's eyes flashed a glimmer of undercurrent. Ning Yue was the one he watched growing up. She has a bad temper, but she is not a vicious person. Why did she change so much after a serious illness?
Seeing that Ma Jinyan didn't speak, Ning Xi thought he didn't believe him, and cried, "Fourth brother, you believe me, she really hurt me! She's going to report me in front of the old lady... What should I do, fourth brother? You can let the old lady know!"
"Hmph." Ma Jinyan snorted disdainfully, "Don't listen to her nonsense, she wasn't there, how can she report you? If she must report you, she must admit that she was there that night. The charges... are not small!"
"But...but those maidservants..."
"Finally think of them now? Why did you go?" Ma Jinyan glanced at Ning Xi lightly. If she wasn't his sister, with her stupidity, he would have wanted to slap her to death. Standing up, eyes like torches said, "I have my own opinion on this matter, don't worry about it anymore."
That night, the old lady caught the three maids who beat Lin Yonghe. The maids confessed to their crimes, but insisted that there was no mastermind behind the scenes, saying that Lin Yonghe couldn't understand them and wanted to sell them to a brothel. Thoughts of revenge. The old lady asked Mrs. Yu how she died, and they said they didn't know, maybe they fell into the lake and drowned. The old lady didn't care about the death of a slave, it was enough to find the real culprit who framed Lin Yonghe. The three servant girls were finally beaten to death with random sticks.
When the news reached Tangli Courtyard, Ning Yue was neither surprised nor disappointed.
Dongmei was upset: "Why? She has done so many bad things, but she was not found out! She is too cheap!"
Ning Yue didn't speak, but touched her lips. It seemed that the temperature of his fingertips still remained here. She was in a good mood: "It's not cheap for her. My mother was made like that by myself, but I didn't receive the punishment I deserved. She will live in anxiety and guilt every day from now on."
"But…"
"No but, keep an eye on Ma Jingyan." With Ning Xi's IQ, it is absolutely impossible to settle the crisis in such a short period of time. The only possibility is that Ma Jingyan made a move. In fact, she really wanted to know, what kind of waves would the fourth brother who fell into the latrine and drowned in his previous life make in this life?
In the evening, Ning Yue climbed onto Ma Ningxin's bed and told her what happened at Baolinxuan. Of course, the part where Xuan Yu saved herself was omitted.
Ma Ningxin exhaled to relieve her anger: "...The last time the Concubine De concubine went home to visit her relatives, he had to go to celebrate. I said how could he be a low-level scholar, how could he enter such a high-end mansion? Dare to hook up with Jia Yuyan early in the morning! By the way, will the Jia family blame Jia Yuyan's death on you?"
"No, they will only be counted on Sikong Shuo's head. Concubine Jia De is now in the thick of her family, I don't know if she will blow the old emperor's pillow." It is best to make the old emperor want to kill Sikong Shuo That's good, in this way, I won't be afraid that Sikong Shuo will play tricks on her.
