Conan's physique? The Crown Princess is involved in a murder case again

The servant's face darkened when he heard this, "I don't have any."

"My trouser legs are torn, do you think there won't be any bruises inside?"

Xu Xingyin asked with a smile, "How about asking someone to come over and check the injury?"

"I have always been a laborer, so it is normal for me to have injuries on my body!"

"In that case, I will tell everyone the truth about last night so that you can put your mind at rest."

As Xu Xingyin spoke, he turned around and faced the Xu family members, analyzing calmly.

"The answer is simple. He went to the toilet drunk last night. It was too dark, so he picked up the lantern on the corridor. He fell and lost the lantern. The fire in the lantern met the remaining alcohol in the mulberry forest, which caused the fire."

After hearing this, everyone in the Xu family understood what these fragmentary clues meant.

But the servant knew that the matter was quite serious, so he naturally denied it.

"This is just Miss Seven's guess. How can it be confirmed?"

"Well, even if you were drunk last night, I don't believe you have no memory of it. You don't have to play dumb with me. After all, the evidence is already in front of you. If you keep lying, don't blame me for settling the score later."

"Even if the young lady threatens me like this, I will never admit to doing something I didn't do!"

"You probably don't know that the reason why mother chose that piece of land to plant mulberries is because the soil there is most suitable for growing fruits. The soil here is extremely soft and very different from other places. The mud on your clothes can be identified by a quick inspection. And your clothes have been broken into this state. I guess you hit a rock, right? Unfortunately, guess if that rock is next to the wine bottle?"

When Xu Xing said this in a veiled way, the servant knew that there was no chance for him to quibble.

He immediately changed his attitude and begged for mercy, saying that he was drunk and had no idea what was going on. Finally, he blamed all the faults on the person who invited everyone to drink.

He is eloquent and good at debate, and is even better than the previous servant.

Xu Xingyin found out the truth, but it was none of her business how to deal with it. She took a step back and stood obediently beside Chen.

Danying nodded and stood behind Xu Xingyin, reporting to her in a low voice.

"Miss, nothing wrong was found in the room."

"Ah."

Xu Xingyin responded, seemingly not surprised by the answer.

On the other hand, Xu Xiuzhu was just worried about where to vent his anger, so when he met someone like this who came to him, he naturally would not be polite.

He kicked the servant hard, scolded him harshly, and finally ordered someone to send him to the government.

After dealing with all this, Fourth Madam Shi, who had been crying so hard that her eyes were swollen, suddenly spoke.

"My Lord, although this man has evil intentions, his words are not wrong. It was Bai Shaotong who caused the trouble. Please send the thief to the government as well!"

Upon hearing this, the fourth master Xu Xiuming hurried forward and grabbed Shi, "Are you crazy? Why send her to an official position? Your own daughter did such a thing, you are afraid that others will not know, right? If this matter is reported to the government, where will our Duke's Mansion put its face!"

"Don't you have any way to stop him from speaking?"

Xu Xiuming was frightened by Shi's words, "You are taking human life lightly!"

"Bah! He doesn't deserve to be called a human! He is worse than an animal!"

Shi then turned her accusation towards Xu Xiuming, "It's all your fault that Xi'er has become like this! Not only has her career not made any progress, but you've always been so submissive and never dared to fight for even the slightest bit. I think even a fly is braver than you! Why did I marry someone like you!"

Shi usually looked honest and obedient, and no one would have thought that he could be so fierce in a quarrel. Even Xu Xingyin was stunned watching from the side.

As peers, Xu Xiuzhu and his wife couldn't say anything.

It was only because Old Madam Xu stopped the two of them with a stern voice and sent her capable maid to comfort Shi for a while that the matter was temporarily suppressed.

After the whole mess was revealed, everyone in the Xu family was exhausted.

Although it was confirmed that this matter had nothing to do with Xu Xingyin, he still couldn't escape being criticized.

After the harsh criticism, the Xu sisters were all punished by being confined to the house, and Xu Wanru was forced to start "recuperating".

Not to mention going out, you may not even see anyone on weekdays.

Bai Shao's work ultimately came to nothing. Xu Xiuzhu sent someone to ruin his job and secretly warned him not to enter the capital again.

For a family like the Duke's Mansion, the golden plaque means more attention and responsibility.

There was no way Xu Xiuzhu would follow Shi's wishes and take human life lightly. Otherwise, if other people heard about it, it would be the crime that would lead to the destruction of the entire family.

Because of this incident, Shi made a fuss in the mansion for a long time.

I heard that the usually good-tempered Fourth Master Xu Xiuming had a fight with Shi, and was beaten so badly that his face was black and blue. He didn't even dare to go to the yamen, and simply went to "recuperate" with Xu Wanru.

If he was punished with house arrest on a normal day, Xu Xingyin felt that he could stay there for half a year without any problem. However, seeing that the opening of the gray market was approaching, he had no choice but to secretly hand the letter to Tian Tian.

Tian Tian was reliable. The next day, she sent a message to Xu Xingyin, saying that the Grand Princess invited her to go to the temple to burn incense.

Old Madam Xu couldn't refuse the invitation from the Grand Princess, so she had to give Xu Xingyin a few instructions and then let him go.

During this period of time, Xu Xingyin could not go anywhere in the mansion. She did not take the matter of reflecting on her mistakes seriously at all, but instead focused all her energy on mending clothes.

On the eve of being invited out, Xu Xingyin finally finished sewing the whole piece of clothing.

Although Xu Xingyin used a large amount of embroidery threads of the same color, the overall look still has an inexplicable sense of weirdness.

Yes, things that have been shattered will always leave traces no matter how well they are taken care of.

On the day of leaving, Xu Xingyin quietly took the clothing with him and went to the East Palace before the Grand Princess's Palace.

The guard at the gate did not recognize Xu Xingyin, and it took a lot of persuasion to make him believe his identity, but he refused to help Xu Xingyin hand over the item no matter what.

Ever since Danfeng was punished last time, Xu Xingyin no longer hid things from her when he was out on business, so probably no one knew better than Danfeng why Xu Xingyin had been busy doing needlework in the mansion for so many days.

Dan Feng was very annoyed by the East Palace guards' stubborn attitude.

"Our young lady hasn't had a good rest for more than a month because of this thing, and her hands have been pierced like sieves. You are so dedicated and yet you still suspect that our motives are not pure. Really..."

Dan Feng was getting angry when he saw Xiao Anzi, the eunuch beside Jing Zhichen, coming out to greet him.

Seeing Xu Xingyin, the master and servant were stunned at first, then they smiled and saluted.

"Miss Xu Qi."
