The reborn sweet girl always wants to escape, but the abstinent prince hugs her and coaxes her!

Different from the determination of the people in the Hou family, everyone in the Xu family has their own concerns.

Xu Chaoqian's face turned red and white.

He knew that this matter was a big deal.

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. After hesitating for a moment, he finally found that he was a little afraid of Mu Rong, so he walked up to Xu Rongrong: "Sister Rong just wants the truth, but reporting to the official is not the only way to find the truth. ...Since this matter happened in the mansion, it should be resolved in the mansion. I wonder what Sister Rong wants?"

If this matter is really reported to the official, even if the Xu family is proven innocent, he will inevitably be labeled as lax in running the family, which will inevitably have a great impact on his future career.

But if you leave this matter alone, the person on the other side will definitely not let it go.

Instead of doing this, it is better to conduct a thorough investigation in the house.

Xu Rongrong naturally understood what he was thinking. She had never thought about exterminating everyone in the Xu Mansion today. The negotiation just now gave her some plans. Next, she was willing to see the head of the Xu Mansion. How to deal with it.

So she nodded: "I would like to hear the details."

Xu Chaoqian breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly: "Since it was a deliberate poisoning, there will definitely be clues left! I will order Butler Xu to lead people to search every corner of the Xu Mansion and find out the culprits who are plotting to kill people." !”

"My father concluded that the servant was betraying the master before the truth was found out? Then even if the murderer is found, how can the daughter determine that the murderer is not deliberately framed?"

"You!" Xu Minmin frowned, "You are so aggressive, aren't you afraid that in the end, the bad guy will be found out?"

"Sister Min, please don't be rude!" Xu Chaoqian scolded, then frowned and looked at Xu Rongrong, "What do you want, Sister Rong?"

"Let Luo Shu and Butler Xu go investigate together."

……

So, in the clear blue sky, the doorman of Xu Mansion closed the door heavily.

Luo Shu took the people from the Hou Mansion, and Butler Xu took the servants of the Xu Mansion, looking for clues in yard after yard.

The atmosphere in the front hall was indescribably solemn. After Xu Chaoqian sat back in the main seat, he fiddled with the cup lid with his fingers uneasily.

As time went by, his mentality gradually relaxed.

Check it, check it! As long as it doesn't cause trouble with the government and everyone knows about it, everything else is easy to talk about.

If it is finally confirmed that someone under the Xu family poisoned him, then he will be handed over directly to the Hou family. They are just insignificant people, and their life and death have nothing to do with him.

But if it is found that someone from the Xu family did not do it, then Xu Rongrong can be labeled as a thief and a thief! When the time comes, relying on this handle, it will not be difficult to control Mu Rong again.

After thinking through this, he sat down in the main seat with leisure.

He picked up the tea and was about to take a sip when he saw faint traces of water on the ground, so he hurriedly put the tea cup down again.

Just as carefree as him is Xu Minmin.

After all, she didn't do it, and no matter who was finally found out, it had nothing to do with her!

She even craned her neck, waiting for the results of the final investigation.

On the other hand, Xu Ming, who had just turned twelve, sat next to Xu Minmin with a melancholy look on his face, sighing like an old man from time to time.

"What's wrong with you?" Xu Minmin mocked, "You didn't do it. Why are you sighing here?"

Xu Ming shook his head with some melancholy: "Hasn't Third Sister ever heard that 'we are born from the same roots, so why rush each other'?"

Xu Minmin sneered and said: "Huh? Just because they promised to help you advance to Bishui Hall, do you want to have the same roots as them? Don't forget! You and we have the same father and mother, and the same bloodline!"

Xu Ming: "..."

The young man sighed again.

Naturally, the expressions of everyone in the Xu Mansion could not escape Xu Rongrong's eyes.

Compared to the noisy Xu Minmin and the sad-looking Xu Ming, she paid more attention to Xu Yaoyao, who was sitting quietly aside.

This second sister of hers... has always been a thoughtful person.

The method of poisoning suits her very well.

After half an hour, the results were obtained.

Luo Shu and Butler Xu entered the front hall one after another. Butler Xu was holding a small brass stove in his hand.

This thing was only used in winter. Now that he took it out, there must be something weird in it.

Xu Chaoqian naturally saw it too, and his eyelids twitched slightly.

This little hand stove looks familiar to him...

"Why did you find a hand stove?" he asked.

"Replying to the master, there is some gray powder in this hand stove. I thought it was the ash left over from burning charcoal in winter, but I never thought...it turned out to be poison." Butler Xu's voice was trembling.

"Impossible!" Before Butler Xu finished speaking, he heard Xu Minmin scream, "Impossible! How could it be hidden in the hand stove!"

Her face was pale, and she could tell at a glance whose hand stove belonged to her.

Luo Shu walked up to Xu Rongrong and said, "Reporting to the County Lord, this hand stove was found in the room of the third lady of Wutong Courtyard. Everyone else in the Xu Mansion and the Hou Mansion can testify."

"It's not me! This is being framed!" Xu Minmin's eyes widened, with a look of disbelief on her face.

"The witnesses and material evidence are all there. I'm afraid the third lady can't lie."

Mu Ai said that he was about to step forward to get someone.

Xu Minmin hurriedly hid behind Xu Chaoqian: "Father, believe me! It's really not me! I have been with you all morning and have never been to the kitchen or tea room. How could I poison her cup?"

Xu Chaoqian was already shocked, but after hearing Xu Minmin's words, he nodded quickly: "I can testify to this. Sister Min has indeed always been by my side and has not gone anywhere else."

Xu Rongrong smiled and said: "With my father's testimony, Miss Xu San did not have the opportunity to go to the teahouse to poison her, but...when Mr. Marquis and I served tea to my father just now, wasn't Miss San standing next to my seat?"

A sentence about Miss Xu San is enough to express Xu Rongrong's attitude.

She looked back at Luo Shu: "Go and search her."

"Who dares?!" After Xu Minmin yelled, she shrank back from Xu Chaoqian.

But soon, Mu Ai pulled it out like a chicken.

Luo Shu stepped forward and quickly saw the clues from the hairpin on her head.

The hairpin was hollow, and there were still remnants of poison inside.

Seeing this, Xu Rongrong smiled and said, "What? What else can Miss Third say?"

Seeing the poison in the hairpin, Xu Minmin herself was dumbfounded. She collapsed on the ground: "How could this happen? It's impossible... It's really not me!"

"Sister Min, why are you so confused!" Xu Yaoyao's face was full of pain, "Eldest sister is now the county head, you... aren't you asking for your own death?"

"Death?" Xu Minmin looked around slowly.

Both the father and the second sister looked helpless.

She was completely panicked and rushed directly in front of Xu Rongrong, hugging her legs: "Sister! You believe me! You know best what kind of personality I have. I would never do such a thing as poisoning!" I would rather confront you head-on than use this roundabout method."

Xu Rongrong looked at her condescendingly.

Her eyes were split open, which was a common look for people who fell into despair after being wronged.

Xu Rongrong looked at her extra neat Feiyun bun today and smiled faintly: "Miss Third, she combed her hair carefully today. How come the second-class girl from Wutong Courtyard has such good skills now?"
