"Mother, please stop talking."

Before Yun Chaomu could speak, Meng Yanting interrupted him.

This made the old lady even more angry. "Why, do you still want to protect her unconditionally? Look at what she has done?"

the old lady asked angrily.

At this time, Meng Yanting just frowned and took a step forward and said, "I don't know what happened to my mother, so don't speak for now."

"Ting'er, you..."

The old lady's face changed, she saw the coldness in her eldest son's eyes.

At this time, Meng Yanting stood in front of Yun Chaomu, looked at Meng Sijing and said, "Sijing, you entered Qingge's yard at noon yesterday, and then Sixi left the house, saying that she was going to give Qingge a cloak, and then disappeared. Now tell father, what were you doing in Qingge's yard?"

Meng Yanting addressed her as father, which meant he still treated her as his daughter. However, Meng Sijing was blinded by jealousy at this time and did not hear the deeper meaning in Meng Yanting's words.

After he said noon, she clenched her hands tightly in her sleeves.

Just one look at the servants in the yard revealed that Meng Qingge had found out.

However, there is no evidence.

Although someone saw her go to Si Xi's yard, no one knew what she said to Si Xi, so as long as she didn't admit it, then this matter had nothing to do with her.

She was waiting for news from Yan Minglang.

As long as it can be confirmed that the person who assassinated Prince Han’s concubine was Meng Qingge, then she would be finished, and she would be able to escape unscathed.

"Father, I did go to Sister Qingge's yard at noon, but I didn't know that Sister Qingge was not there. Si Xi said that Sister Qingge had left the house, so I left directly. I only stayed there for a moment."

Meng Sijing's eyes were red and his face was full of grievance. It was obvious that he had been bullied. The old lady felt very distressed when she saw him.

Meng Yanting frowned. He didn't want to speculate the greatest malice about his daughter who grew up in the Meng family, and the servants' words could only prove that Meng Sijing had been to Qingge's yard.

"You came to apologize to me? What are you apologizing for? Meng Sijing, do you believe what you said?"

At this moment, Yun Chaomu sneered.

She looked coldly at Meng Sijing in front of her, "One moment you left, and the next moment Si Xi left the house with his cloak. How can there be so many coincidences in this world?"

"But I didn't say anything. Si Xi's leaving the house has nothing to do with me. Besides, what good would it do me to trick Si Xi out of the house?"

Meng Sijing burst into tears and said, feeling so wronged.

"Dad, Grandma, it really has nothing to do with Si Jing. I just feel bad because Dad misunderstood Qingge's absence all night, and he resented me, and Qingge was sad. The more I thought about it, the more upset I felt. Seeing Grandma and Qingge angry, I thought that since it was caused by me, I had to do something, so I thought about going to Qingge's yard to apologize to her, but I really don't know where Si Xi went."

There were tears in Meng Sijing's red and swollen eyes, full of grievance.

His words were spoken very sincerely, which made the old lady feel very uncomfortable.

"Don't cry, Jing'er. Grandmother believes in you."

The old lady said.

"Qingge, do you really have to humiliate Sijing like this? You suspect her and beat her just because of a maid who disappeared for no reason. Where do you want to put her?"

The old lady was heartbroken and even more angry with Meng Qingge.

Yun Chaomu looked at Meng Sijing who was crying silently, her heart was unshakable. She was sure that Sixi's disappearance must be related to her.

but why?

She's just a little maid, what's the use of arresting her? Why blackmail her?

wrong!

Yun Chaomu unraveled the mystery and recalled one thing from Meng Qingge's words, 'she did not return home all night'. When she returned home at five o'clock in the morning, Meng Sijing was waiting there. He said a few words to her and they had a conflict. At that time, she touched her injured arm and her face must have looked bad, so Meng Sijing noticed it.

Afterwards, she must have seen the wanted poster posted outside.

Si Xi was her personal maid, and she even went to buy medicinal herbs under her instructions.

and so!

Si Xi's disappearance is related to this incident. Someone wants to find out from Si Xi whether her shoulder blade is injured and whether she is the murderer who assassinated Prince Han's concubine!

Everything became clear in an instant.

Yun Chaomu pursed her lips tightly. That girl was implicated by her. Where is she now? Is she alive or dead?

Her eyes were a little sore. The first person she saw after waking up was the girl Si Xi. She was a little silly, but sincere and loyal to her.

"Grandma, I didn't bully her, nor did I doubt her. I was convinced that Si Xi's disappearance must have something to do with her!"

Yun Chaomu looked directly at the old lady, not afraid of her extremely ugly face, and continued, "Meng Sijing ran out of the house crying yesterday morning because she wronged me. Where did she go during this period of time? After returning to the house, Si Xi went out and disappeared...

Let me guess, Meng Sijing, you went to find Yan Minglang, right?"

Yun Chaomu suddenly said.

Meng Sijing suddenly froze, his pupils shrank subconsciously, and he almost couldn't control the expression on his face. He even forgot to refute for a moment.

Just from this slight expression, Yun Chaomu knew that she guessed right!

"Yan Minglang works in the Ministry of Justice, and he is your fiancé. You thought you were wronged in the Meng family, so you went to him to cry, right? Then he stood up for you and arrested my maid. He wanted to make me feel uncomfortable, right?"

Yun Chaomu asked coldly.

She was very calm and reviewed almost the whole thing.

But in fact, she knew in her heart that Si Xi was not arrested to make her feel uncomfortable, but to force her to confess, to force Si Xi to ask whether she had a shoulder blade injury and whether she was the murderer who assassinated Prince Han's concubine.

If Si Xi confesses, Yan Minglang should come soon.

If there is no move, then Si Xi will definitely suffer.

She knew something about the methods used by the Ministry of Justice, which were shameful and vicious.

That girl is suffering, and a day and a night have already passed.

Yun Chaomu thought that his heart had become much colder and harder after his rebirth, but at this moment he couldn't help but tear up.

"Meng Sijing, are you still unwilling to tell the truth?"

Yun Chaomu said sternly.

Meng Yanting's expression became even uglier. "Si Jing, is this what Qingge guessed?"

Meng Sijing's face turned pale and her eyes were red. For a moment, she didn't dare to deny it, because as long as Meng Yanting checked, he would be able to find out. She had never expected that Meng Qingge would be so sharp and smart, as if she had become a different person.

This sudden silence already explains a lot of problems.

"Si Jing!"

Meng Yanting's voice became a little more stern, as if he couldn't believe that she would actually do such a thing.

"Yanting, why are you shouting? This is just Qingge's guess!? How could Jing'er do such a thing? Jing'er, tell me, is Qingge making a wild guess and wrongly accusing you?"
