Sanshun didn't hesitate at all, shook his head and said: "This girl told me alone, without seeing anyone else."

"She didn't mention anyone else either?"

"No, they just told me to keep an eye on the private room. Whenever I see a man entering, I will go to the third floor to report the news. Some nobles, please forgive me. I don't want the money anymore and will give it back to you."

Sanshun said, and took out a ten-tael silver ingot from his arms. Although money is good, it also needs life flowers.

For these people in front of him, crushing him was as easy as crushing an ant. He didn't dare to take any chances.

Shen Zhixiu raised his voice and ordered, "Take this person down, take the money, and don't reveal what happened today."

Sanshun felt like he was being pardoned and left with the boy with a lot of gratitude.

Wen Zhu, who was guarding the door, walked in and said, "Third Master, the one who delivered the message to the inner courtyard today was Fu Zi, the gatekeeper. He has been brought here. Shall we let him in now?"

"Let him in."

Fuzi is a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old. He looks honest and solid. Both his parents work in the Shen family. Hearing that Third Master summoned him for questioning, he began to panic unconsciously.

His mother always said before that he didn't know how to look, and he wasn't considerate enough in his words and actions. So I asked the housekeeper in the house to place him at the gate, just to let him practice more.

But he had only been guarding the door for ten days, and the Third Master summoned him for questioning. Could it be that he had made some mistake?

After all, she was young, and by the time she walked into the hall and knelt down, Fuzi's legs had already begun to tremble.

"The message you went to the west courtyard to deliver this morning, and the jade pendant you sent?" Shen Zhixiu asked.

Fuzi nodded and replied, "The younger one went."

"Did the third young master of the Lin family come personally to tell you the message? Or did the young man from the Lin family come?" Shen Zhixiu asked again.

Fuzi's honest eyes looked at Shen Zhixiu's toes, "It wasn't the Lin family who passed the message, it was Aunt Cheng who passed it on."

Then she explained: "Aunt Cheng gave the jade pendant to the younger one, saying it was the jade pendant of the third young master of the Lin family. She said that she met the third young master of the Lin family outside, so she helped pass on the message."

"Then why didn't you tell the people in the West Courtyard that it was Aunt Cheng who spread the word?" Su Qingyu asked.

Fuzi turned slightly and faced Su Qingyu, "What I said to the Third Madam was forbidden by Aunt Cheng. It is said that she is the aunt of the house, and it is against the rules to send a message to the Third Young Master Lin."

"When I saw the word "Lin" engraved on the jade pendant, I thought that what Aunt Cheng said must be true."

Su Qingyu saw the honest look on Fuzi's face and knew that most of what he said was true. It's just that this person has few eyes and his mind is slow. He is really stupid.

How can such a person guard the door?

The job of looking at the door looks simple, but it is actually not easy. You need to be adaptable and flexible.

Cheng Rujin is really good at finding people. If there was another person today, he probably wouldn't be so bold in passing the message. Or maybe Cheng Rujin came to Fuzi because she knew he had this kind of temperament.

"Aunt Cheng came to you on her own?"

Fuzi nodded hastily, "Yes, it's just her. There was a little maid following far behind, but she didn't come forward."

Finally, Fuzi was taken down, beaten ten times, and sent to Zhuangzi to raise pigs.

After Fuzi went down, Su Qingyu asked where Lin Wuchen's jade pendant came from.

Cheng Rujin said that she found a thief to send a message to Lin Wuchen and stole his jade pendant. As for Lin Wuchen, she was sent to Ruyi Building.

Su Qingyu asked pointedly: "You did this yourself, right? It should have nothing to do with the young master."

Cheng Rujin was stunned and suddenly realized that Shen Zhao had no involvement in this matter from beginning to end.

As for what they said in private, it cannot be used as evidence.

In other words, she intended to frame Su Qingyu and had nothing to do with Shen Zhao.

No, Shen Zhao was still the victim, and the silver needle was shot out of her arm.

She was just thinking about how to explain the silver needle thing. Shen Zhao couldn't be allowed to misunderstand her, how could she harm him.

At this moment, he suddenly understood why he didn't know that he just wanted to push her out as a scapegoat.

When asked about the matter in the end, everyone believed that Cheng Rujin deliberately murdered her. She lured Su Qingyu and Li Chaoyun to Guangfu Tower, and tried to create a private meeting between Su Qingyu and Shen Zhao, so that Li Chaoyun and Shen Zhixiu could catch them on the spot. He even brought a concealed weapon with the intention of killing people.

And Shen Zhao became the biggest victim. The fiancée misunderstood her and even got hurt.

Su Qingyu suddenly glanced at Cheng Rujin with pity. Isn't it uncomfortable to feel like being stabbed in the back by the one you love?

Shen Zhixiu asked Shen Zhao in a deep voice, "She is your concubine, what do you want to do with her?"

Shen Zhao said respectfully: "She deliberately murdered the third aunt, and her crime is unforgivable."

"According to my nephew's opinion, I will drag him down and hit a hundred big boards. Life or death depends on fate."

Su Qingyu's eyes showed a mocking smile. Life and death are determined by fate? Isn't this just asking for someone's life?

What a pity, why wasn't he the one who got hit a hundred times?

Cheng Rujin raised his head and looked at Shen Zhao, his usually watery eyes now filled with despair and hatred.

For him, she walked step by step towards today. She lost her reputation, became a concubine, and was given the drug to kill her. Her mother and brother were gone, she only had him.

Just yesterday, they were cuddling together, and Shen Zhao said that even if she didn't have children, she wouldn't let her die alone. Today he can easily say a hundred words, which shows that all love and affection are fake.

He had been coaxing her these past two days, just to use her to deal with Su Qingyu.

Shen Zhao was stared at by Cheng Rujin, and he ordered the woman outside in a deep voice, "Pull him down, don't hold back your hands, beat me hard."

Two women came in and pulled Cheng Rujin out.

Cheng Rujin looked ferocious and roared heartbreakingly.

"Shen Zhao, you are such a sinister and vicious villain, even if I am a ghost, I will never let you go."

"I swear with my soul that you will be pierced by thousands of arrows and die, and you will have no descendants."

The mother-in-law who was dragging Cheng Rujin quickly took out a cotton handkerchief, balled it up and stuffed it into Cheng Rujin's mouth.

But it was too late, the curse had already been uttered.

Mrs. Chen's face was extremely gloomy and she cursed her son in front of her. How could she bear this?

"Hit me to death, and it will be over whenever you kill me."

Su Qingyu kept looking at Cheng Ruijin's back until she could no longer see him. The scene of Cheng Ruijin holding the child and standing in front of her in her previous life came to her mind again.

She wanted to say something to the old lady and see Cheng Rujin off for the last time.

She wanted to watch her die with her own eyes and fall into the endless hell.

But before she could say anything, a servant came in to report.

"Madam, Prince Shan is here with his princess, Princess Chaoyun, and the fourth young master of the Li family."
