bastard returns
Work related
The miraculous effect of invigorating blood circulation, the old lady is suffering from low back pain due to the stagnation of qi and blood due to the cold weather recently, I was about to prepare some for the old lady, unexpectedly the third young master is so caring, and he is ahead of me, a doctor. "
Mrs. Shen has always trusted Dr. Zheng, and just now she heard that Ning Xiang and Ning Ping'er contradicted him one after another, and she was a little unhappy. Now that she heard Dr. Zheng's words, she thought that Ning Yuan was so filial, but what she was going to give her was actually said by others He became a poison, and was almost charged with poisoning his relatives. He felt even more distressed, and hurriedly reached out his hand to Ning Yuan, "My good boy, I have really wronged you."
"Yes, yes, Yuan'er was really wronged. Fortunately, Dr. Zheng has the insight to clear up Yuan'er's grievances. Otherwise, if Yuan'er's charges are confirmed, it will not be a big mistake!" Seeing the situation, Mrs. Liu It wasn't quite right, so he hurriedly agreed, while trying to wink at Ning Xiang and Ning Ping'er, to let them know how to advance and retreat.Ning Ping'er already understood that the prepared arsenic had inexplicably turned into realgar powder, which meant that there must be something wrong, and today's work was over, so she quietly retreated to Liu Shi's side, but Ning Xiang was still unconvinced. The city government is not as profound as Ning Ping'er, seeing that Ning Yuan could be put to death just a little bit, how could he be willing to do so if he fell short like this!So he still went his own way and said to Ning Ruhai: "Father, this matter can't be left as it is. Father is wise, you can't let the poisoner go unpunished!"
"Second brother really speaks uprightly. My father is talented and discerning. Naturally, he will never let those evil-minded people go unpunished." It was louder than Ning Xiang, "Father has already searched the Zhuxuantang. Although no evidence was found, Yuan'er was involved in it, and it cannot be said that he is completely innocent. A thorough investigation into this matter, anyone who can come into contact with Yuanzi must not let it go, and finding out the real culprit will firstly give Yuan'er a clean slate, and secondly, it will also calm people's hearts. After all, if there is a poisoner lurking in the mansion If the madman is not eradicated, is it true that everyone will have to test it with silver needles before eating in the future?"
"Yuan'er's words are reasonable, and this matter must be investigated carefully." Shen nodded, but her eyes fell on Ning Xiang'er who had been silent by her side for a long time.
After all, the ball was made by Ning Xiang'er, and it was only because of her crying at the beginning, and the fact that Ning Xiang and Ning Ping'er took advantage of the wind, that the fire was set on Ning Yuan. , I have to find out from Ning Xiang'er.
Ning Ruhai understood what Shen meant, but he was also puzzled this time. If Ning Yuan really wasn't the one who poisoned, then who was the one who did the poisoning?
"Housekeeper, take someone to search Xiang'er's yard to see if you can find anything." Ning Ruhai ordered.
Ning Xiang'er was shocked all over, but she still tried her best to keep herself calm. She felt that the room was clean, but she couldn't find anything.
But sometimes things backfired, the housekeeper left quickly this time, and came back very quickly, and also held an oiled paper bag in his hand, which was almost the same as the one he had just found from the Bamboo Xuantang.
Ning Xiang'er's heart skipped a beat, and she watched the butler open the paper bag in front of Ning Ruhai, revealing the crystal white powder inside, and said, "Master, this was found in the cupboard of Miss Xiang'er's bedroom. .”
Ning Ruhai's face suddenly turned serious, turned to look at Ning Xiang'er, and asked, "What is this?"
"I... I don't know..." Ning Xiang'er was a little silly, and a bad premonition quickly rose from her heart.
And Dr. Zheng over there has already stepped forward under Shen's instruction and began to inspect the powder. After a while, he raised his head and slowly uttered a sentence that sounded like a bolt from the blue to Ning Xianger: "This bag is just a piece of powder. It's real arsenic."
"Impossible!" Ning Xiang'er screamed, "How could there be such a thing in my room? This is a false accusation! A false accusation!" She was trembling all over, completely panicked.How could this be possible, the arsenic hidden in Zhuxuantang somehow turned into a pack of realgar powder, but the real arsenic was in her room!
"Master, this must be framed. Xiang'er has always been gentle and kind, how could she do something like poisoning!" Mrs. Zhang, who had been gloating by the side before, saw the fire on her daughter's head, and immediately let out a thud. Kneel down and beg for mercy.
"Aunt Zhang, facts speak louder than words. Sister Xiang'er made the ball, and the arsenic was also found in Sister Xiang'er's house. The evidence is conclusive and cannot be denied. Moreover, I believe that Sister Xiang'er's boudoir cannot be entered by ordinary people. Yes." Ning Yuan said calmly.
"Damn it, it turns out that you are a scum from your family!" Ning Ruhai stepped forward two steps, and wanted to slap Ning Xiang'er with a slap. Mrs. Zhang rushed forward to block her daughter, and the slap fell heavily on Mrs. Zhang. On her face, with Ning Ruhai's strength, her cheeks were ripped apart, and a line of blood slid down the corner of her mouth.
"Father, my daughter was wronged! My daughter was wronged!" Seeing her mother being beaten like that, Ning Xiang'er burst into tears. She wanted to tell herself, but she didn't know what to say. Suddenly, she thought of Ning Yuan. One sentence she said-"I believe that ordinary people can't enter Sister Xiang'er's boudoir." Indeed, few people enter her boudoir, and the only people who came to her boudoir to sit in her boudoir recently... Thinking of this, she felt a tingle all over her body. Zhen, as if grabbing some life-saving straw, raised his hand and pointed at Ning Xiang, and said sharply, "It's you! It's you who wants to kill me!"
Ning Xiang suddenly panicked, "Sister Xiang'er, don't spit blood, when, when did I hurt you!"
"Damn! If you dare to do it, you must admit it. No one has entered my room recently except you. I am so stupid! I am so stupid to think that you two brothers and sisters treat me sincerely and can find a good marriage for me. I That’s why I’m willing to do things for you, to help you frame your third brother, but I don’t want you to be so ruthless, and it’s not the third brother you want to plot for a long time, but me!” Speaking of this, Ning Xiang'er seemed to be unable to bear it any longer, she threw herself on the ground and burst into tears.
"You, you, you, what are you talking about, you damn girl, you don't know how to repent when you die, and you still want to frame others, come on, hurry up and drag this crazy girl down!" Liu's face was full of panic, almost jumping Going up to cover Ning Xiang'er's mouth, Ning Xiang and Ning Ping'er's complexions turned even paler.
"I just want to say, I want to reveal all your shady schemes in front of everyone! You want to harm me? There is no door! At worst, everyone will die and no one will live!" Ning Xiang'er became red. Eyes, two servants had broken into the door and tried to drag her out, but she struggled to break free, crawled forward with disheveled hair, threw herself at Ning Ruhai's feet and cried, "Father, my daughter is wronged! Wronged! "
"Crying like a crazy woman, how decent is it!" Ning Ruhai's face was extremely ugly, as if he didn't want to hear Ning Xiang'er's judgment at all, and kicked her away forcefully, "Hurry up and take her away, lock her up first Enter the ancestral hall and try again at another day!"
"Wait." Ning Yuan suddenly turned his body to prevent the two servants from approaching Ning Xiang'er, then he took two steps forward, walked to the center of the hall, bowed his hands to Ning Ruhai, and said loudly : "Father, although Sister Xiang'er said nothing, she kept talking about Hai'er, saying that someone was plotting against Hai'er, so Hai'er had to be careful, and there were many doubts about the whole matter. He thought it's better to let Sister Xiang'er take care of Hai'er now." Can you speak clearly?"
"She's so crazy, what can she say, even if she speaks, it's crazy, I can't hear it." Ning Ruhai waved his hand to interrupt Ning Yuan.In fact, could he not understand the meaning of what Ning Xianger said?Of course he heard it, but since the matter involved Ning Xiang and Ning Ping'er, his favorite children, he had to turn a blind eye and plan to suppress the matter first.
Ning Yuan saw that Ning Ruhai was trying to protect him, how could he let him get what he wanted, and immediately turned to Shen and said, "Grandmother, if Sister Xiang'er really has grievances, it's better to let her speak out now, otherwise If you imprisoned people in the ancestral hall so hastily, it would be equivalent to confirming your sister's crime. Even if you release her later, the consequences will be irreparable.
In Dazhou, shutting down the ancestral hall was a serious punishment for disciplining the family's children who made mistakes.In the ancestral hall, there are nuns who specialize in teaching etiquette. They are withdrawn and powerful. Once they are imprisoned, they live in a room that is dark all day long. They lack food and clothing, and they will be punished in front of the ancestral tablet. He was a lively person before, and he will definitely become crazy when he comes out.
Of course, the physical pain is secondary, but if a person is imprisoned in the ancestral hall, it means that the elders of the family have confirmed his crime, and if it is spread, it will be the biggest stain in his life. She said that getting such a stain on her body would be more uncomfortable than killing her.
When Ning Yuan said these words, he was naturally not feeling sorry for Ning Xiang'er, but if Ning Xiang'er was imprisoned in the ancestral hall like this, the play would not be able to continue.Seeing Ning Ruhai's expression of trying to hold back his anger, Ning Yuan couldn't help but feel happy. I want to see if you, a father who protects his weaknesses, can continue to cover up shamelessly under the eyes of everyone!
019 Adding insult to injury
Jing Yi, who had been silent before, also opened his mouth at this time, "Master Ning, although this is your family's housework, and I have no position to gossip as an outsider, but Brother Yuan is also reasonable, and this kind of thing is still done in one go. It's good to find out, even if it's not for Brother Yuan himself, it would be unfair to Miss Xiang'er to settle the matter in such an ambiguous way."
The reason why Jing Yi has been watching from the sidelines, not even being moved by Ning Yuan being kidnapped, is that Ning Yuan has taken care of him in advance, no matter what happens in the future, he just needs to watch from the sidelines.Although he didn't know what Ning Yuan was trying to sell, but seeing Ning Yuan's confident appearance, he kept his temper and held back without saying a word. Now that Ning Yuan has saved the day, he even lost one who seemed to be helping to speak. Looking at him, Jing Yi's always hasty temper couldn't sit still anymore, and he spoke immediately.
When his voice sounded, Ning Ruhai couldn't help being moved, how could he forget that there was still a prince Jing Guogong present in the room.
Once there are outsiders watching such an occasion, many things will not be easy to handle. If he continues to deliberately maintain it, in the eyes of others, he will be a selfish image of right and wrong, and spread his old face To or not to.
Thinking of this, he could only flick his sleeves angrily, turned around and sat down beside Shen, straightened his face and said to Ning Xiang'er: "You can say whatever you want, if there is a half-truth, you don't have to go to the ancestral hall Now, I will send you directly to the Lingxu Temple in Yuling Mountain outside the city, and let you confess to the ancient Buddha of Qingdeng!"
Yuling Mountain Lingxu Temple, is this going to send her to become a nun?Ning Xiang'er was so frightened that her face turned pale, she immediately trembled all over and kowtowed, hitting the floor with a bang, and said in a panic: "Father knows that everything my daughter said is true, and I dare not lie a little bit. The poison was indeed poisoned by the daughter, but the daughter completely listened to the instigation of the second brother and sister Pinger, and even the arsenic used was given to me by the second brother himself!"
As Ning Xiang'er's mouth turned the whole thing over like beans, Ning Ruhai's face turned greener and greener, Shen's frown became tighter, and Liu's and Ning Xiang's and Ning Ping'er's complexions became more and more serious. Getting whiter and whiter, but Jing Yi's mouth opened wider and wider.
Ning Ping'er's plan was very well thought out, so Ning Xiang'er took the opportunity of going to Zhuxuantang to heat the dumplings, and secretly hid a pack of arsenic in the kitchen, and framed Ning Yuan for the crime of poisoning.It was very safe to do so. First of all, Ning Xiang'er and Ning Yuan had no old grievances, and sending Yuanzi to the door would not arouse Ning Yuan's vigilance. In addition, there was a circle in the middle, making people mistakenly think that the person who was going to be poisoned was Ning Ping'er. , so that even if the matter fails, no one will notice that the poison is related to Ning Ping'er, and there will never be anyone in this world so stupid as to poison themselves to harm themselves.
But she did all the calculations, and she didn't expect that the prepared arsenic was dropped by someone, but the real arsenic entered Ning Xiang'er's house.Originally, there was no real evidence, even if the poisonous ball was made by Ning Xiang'er, as long as she bites it to death and doesn't let go, naturally she doesn't have to bear any responsibility. This is why she agreed to Ning Ping'er, but now it's different. After finding the arsenic, it was unclear that she had poisoned it. In order to protect herself, Ning Xiang'er didn't even care about a rich marriage. There is money to be made.
"The general thing is like this. Sister Ping'er said to her daughter that if she can successfully get rid of the third brother, she can let Aunt Liu take me to the spring banquet in the palace in a few months, and find a good husband's house for her daughter. My daughter was deceived by lard for a while, so she followed them. Now the arsenic in my daughter's room must have been hidden by my second brother. My daughter understands that they are just using a pretense to lure me into a trap. In fact, they want to frame her. My daughter is really confused, if there is a heaven-sent marriage, how can sister Ping'er help me, I'm afraid it's too late for her to stick it up!" Ning Xiang'er burst into tears, her forehead was already red and swollen, "Father knows, daughter Injustice! Injustice!"
"You...don't spitting blood!" Ning Xiang said nervously: "Father, this girl is simply crazy. She can't do it by poisoning others by herself. When she dies, she still doesn't forget to frame me and my sister. Father, don't believe it!"
"Master, this is framing. Ping'er is only 13 years old, and she is still a child. How could she come up with such a conspiracy? It's obviously Xiang'er, a girl who is making nonsense!" Liu Shi also said eagerly.
The two sides yelled at each other and bit into a ball, until Ning Ruhai's temples were beating non-stop. He took a few deep breaths and said to Ning Xiang'er: "You said that Xiang'er and Ping'er instigated this matter, but it's just a one-sided statement. , is there any other evidence?"
"There are also thrush and coral!" Ning Xiang'er pointed to the two maids behind her, "They, they can testify!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, Thrushcross and Coral immediately kowtowed like garlic, "Master, the servants don't know anything. The servants just obeyed Miss Xiang'er's order to hide a package of things in the bamboo canopy." Tang, at the end, I have to give false testimony that I saw a strange girl going in and out of the kitchen, and the servants don't know anything about the rest!"
"You..." Ning Xiang'er's face was dull, and she realized that when Ning Xiang came to him to talk about these things, she specially asked her to push back the servants, and she didn't say much to the maids around her afterwards. Therefore, although Thrush and Coral participated in it, they didn't know the inside story.
Ning Ruhai obviously breathed a sigh of relief, "Since you can't produce any other evidence, everyone will say what you say, so how do I know if you are jumping the wall in a hurry to frame Xiang'er and Ping'er."
"Father, if you don't look for evidence, he won't jump in front of you." Ning Yuan suddenly said coldly, "Since sister Xiang'er said so convincingly, Yuan'er thinks that many Things don’t come from nowhere.”
Ning Ruhai glanced at him, "How are you doing?"
"Please father, send someone to the second brother's residence to check." After a pause, he continued: "Not only the second brother, but also the rooms of Aunt Liu and Sister Ping'er. If What Sister Xianger said is true, there will always be some clues to be found. If Sister Xianger is really jumping over the wall in a hurry to bite, it can also prove the innocence of the second brother and Sister Pinger, so that people will use these words to reproduce right and wrong in the future. It ruined the reputation of the second brother and the younger sister."
"You actually want to search my house?" Ning Xiang almost jumped up and cursed: "Ning Yuan, you are so brave!"
"Second brother, third brother is also thinking of you, otherwise how can you prove that sister Xiang'er is framing you?" Ning Yuan blinked with an innocent face, "Or, is there really something shady in the second brother's room?"
"You..." Ning Xiang's face was flushed, and he couldn't refute even half a sentence.
Ning Ping'er also said: "Father, elder brother and Ping'er were clearly wronged, the shame of searching the house is too great, even if we can prove our innocence, we brothers and sisters will definitely be ridiculed in the future, how can we gain a foothold in this Ning Mansion?"
"Sister Ping'er's words are really unreasonable." Ning Yuan said softly: "My house can be searched, and sister Xiang'er's house can be searched, why can't I search for sister Ping'er's place? I think I am a thin-skinned person, If you are not afraid of these things and can still live a frank and open life, what is little sister Ping'er afraid of?"
In a word, it ran Ning Ping'er, scolded her for being thick-skinned, and reminded Ning Ruhai that my place, Ning Yuan and Ning Xiang'er, had been searched. of eccentricity.
"Butler." Ning Ruhai had no choice but to take a look at the butler. The butler's expression froze, and he took the man away for the third time.
Ning Xiang clenched his fists tightly, seeing Ning Yuan's smiling face, he really wanted to punch him so that his mouth and nose would bleed.Ning Pinger clenched her small fists in her sleeves, but unlike Ning Xiang's anger, Ning Pinger was nervous.
She has already seen that Ning Yuan probably has seen through their schemes long ago, and used their schemes, and set up a trick and waited for them to exploit them. , it must be Ning Yuan's handwriting, and since he can put things into Ning Xiang'er's bedroom without anyone noticing, what about his own bedroom?
But after thinking about it, Ning Ping'er felt that it was impossible, her room with Ning Xiang's was no different than Ning Xiang'er's.Ning Xiang'er's status is not high, and there are few servants serving in the house, so it is easy for people to sneak in, but Liu's Hexin Garden has a lot of maids and women, and there are always maids in the house, so how can outsiders be allowed to take advantage of it? Not to mention the Changhui Hall where Ning Xiang, the most beloved young master, lives.
Thinking of this level, Ning Ping'er couldn't help but relax, that's right, even if Ning Yuan had a conspiracy, he didn't have that chance, he must be bluffing, and he didn't have to be afraid at all.
The housekeeper took a very long time to go this time, after all, there were three places to search, the tea in the room was served three times, and the charcoal fire was changed for a round before seeing him come back.
Seeing that the butler was empty-handed, Ning Ping'er couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, presumably nothing was found.
The fact was not as she expected, the housekeeper bowed to Ning Ruhai, "Master, the rooms of the Second Young Master and Miss Ping'er are clean, there is nothing."
Ning Ruhai's face brightened, "So you won't do anything about Xiang'er and Ping'er?"
"Father, I said that my sister and I were wronged, it was all Xiang'er talking nonsense!" Ning Xiang's heart fell to the ground, and he did not forget to look at Ning Yuan with a face full of pride.
But what the housekeeper said next made everyone stunned on the spot.
"It's just that the servants came from the third lady's room in Hexinyuan..." The housekeeper showed a hesitant expression, and slowly took a long mahogany box from the servant behind him.
The moment Liu saw the mahogany box, her whole body trembled and she almost couldn't stand up.
Ning Ping'er noticed the change in Liu's family, and suddenly her heart skipped a beat. The box was also opened by the butler at this time. The butler shook his hands, and took out a little man tied with straw from inside.
The villain is about half a foot in size, and is made with a nose and eyes. On the front, there is a piece of paper with the birth date written on it, and the whole body is covered with silver needles.
"Oh my god, this is the art of disgust!" The aunts in the room were in a commotion, countless eyes looked at the things in the housekeeper's hands in horror, and Liu Shi rolled his eyes, trembling all over, and was about to faint .
How did she forget that there was this thing in her house!
This Witch Gu villain is what she plans to use to deal with Ning Yuan during the ancestor worship tonight. This is also her plan from the beginning. She originally planned to take advantage of everyone's gathering for tea after dinner and when there are few people in the backyard. , sent someone to hide in the Zhuxuan Hall without anyone noticing, not wanting to cause a commotion between Ning Xiang and Ning Ping'er, the villain had already been searched out before she even started to do anything.
For a moment, Mrs. Liu wished she could strangle her sons and daughters to death. Not only did she fail to bring down Ning Yuan, but she wanted to kill her, a mother!
The housekeeper handed the villain to Ning Ruhai trembling all over, and then he didn't dare to look at his face anymore.He has been in the Ning Manor for many years, so he naturally understands Ning Ruhai's temper. Ning Ruhai, who was born in the army, usually hates these witchcraft and evil rumors the most, not to mention the date of birth posted by the servant, which is clearly, clearly, the old man Shen's birthday horoscope!
Sure enough, Ning Ruhai only glanced at the villain, then his whole body was shaken. He threw the villain onto Liu Shi's face and shouted angrily, "You poisonous woman!"
Although Liushi hid, she was still poked in the face by a few silver needles, and her face was bloodstained for a while, but she didn't care about the pain, knelt on the ground and crawled to Ning Ruhai's feet, hugging his leg and crying: "Master, that thing doesn't belong to my concubine, someone is framing me, sir, don't believe it! Don't believe it!"
But Ning Ruhai really started a fire, so it's up to Mrs. Liu to tell.He really loves this beautiful and beautiful third lady, and he really likes Ning Xiang and Ning Pinger, a pair of clever children, so he always takes care of them more on weekdays, but this does not mean that they can ride until the old lady sinks. on his head.
Shen Shi was sitting next to Ning Ruhai, and she naturally saw the date of birth on the villain. Although she was angry in her heart, her status as an old lady and the demeanor of a lady cultivated since she was a child prevented her from being like a willow. He yelled casually like that, and just said lightly, "It turns out that this old lady wants to curse me like this because she hates the third daughter-in-law so much. If I don't pour tea to you and admit my mistake, I really can't justify it."
"Old madam, my daughter-in-law has been wronged. My daughter-in-law has always respected you, how could she do such a thing!" Mrs. Liu used her ability of howling ghosts and howling wolves to ten percent. She knew that disaster was imminent, if she didn't work harder, Cursing the old lady with the technique of disgusting victory, this crime alone is enough to make him irreparable.
"Respect me?" Mrs. Shen sneered, and began to imitate Mrs. Liu's tone, and said something that left Mrs. Liu speechless for a moment, "'The old godly woman doesn't even think about this poor family property of Wu'anbo Mansion, How much money does it cost to support such a family, the income is not enough to make ends meet every month, every month is stretched, it is not bad to be able to eat and drink for her, but she even put on a face for me, if I am not working hard, then Let her take this big family to drink the northwest wind', third daughter-in-law, these words, but you said it yourself, are not adulterated."
It is said that there is nothing impenetrable in the world, but someone accidentally overheard an angry word Liu said in her room, and spread it to Shen's ears. The reason why Shen kept pretending I don't know, apart from the fact that Mrs. Liu has always been loved by Ning Ruhai, Mrs. Chen doesn't want to make her son unhappy, and she doesn't want to be seen like the younger generation, so that she doesn't appear to be magnanimous enough.Unexpectedly, she didn't want to care about it, but Liu Shi made an inch of it, even using such a curse technique, as far as Shen Shi was concerned, it was too much to bear.
Hearing what Shen said, Ning Ruhai became even more furious. Although he was partial to his children, he was a filial son, and his mother's status was above everything else. Seeing Shen being humiliated, he became furious for a moment, wishing to slap Liu again. , and most of the preference for Ning Xiang and Ning Ping'er disappeared.Taking a few breaths, he yelled at Liu Shi: "You bitch is really poisonous like a snake and scorpion, how dare you use these things to curse the old lady, it shows that I dote on you too much, and let you be so lawless!" After finishing speaking, he pointed at Ning Xiang and Ning Ping'er again, and his tone became even more severe, "With such a vicious mother-in-law, what can you two learn in daily life? I'm afraid Xiang'er is right. You may not be able to get away with it!"
"Father, we are wronged!" Ning Xiang wanted to distinguish, but Ning Ruhai raised his hand to stop him: "It is up to you to say whether you are wronged or not. Father will check it out. Housekeeper, put them back in your room first." Don't let them go out without my order in the house!" Ning Ruhai pointed at Ning Xiang, Ning Ping'er and Ning Xiang'er in turn, and finally landed on Liu Shi, "As for this bitch , shut him into the ancestral hall, and ordered the mother-in-law to teach her the three obediences and four virtues!"
020 The dust settles
The scene where Ning Yuan watched with raised eyebrows encouraged Ning Ruhai to search the house. Originally, he just had the idea of trying to see if he could find some clues from their room, but he didn't expect much. Because just as Ning Pinger thought, he could let Zhou Shi quietly hide the dropped arsenic in Ning Xianger's room, but he was not sure that he could go in and out of Ning Xiang's or Ning Pinger's room without being discovered.
On the first day after he came back from rebirth, when he quietly sneaked into Hexin Garden to steal jade and coral bracelets, Ning Yuan noticed that there were many people in Hexin Garden, and there were groups of maids and women, wanting to quietly It is very difficult to sneak in and come out again. If you are not careful, you will be discovered, so I didn't take this risk.
It's just that he didn't expect that he could catch such a big fish from Liu's bedroom even though he couldn't find any clues.
Regarding the poisoning, even if there is Ning Xianger's accusation, there is no real evidence. Ning Yuan expected that Ning Ruhai would not do anything to Ning Xiang and Ning Pinger. That's right, that Witch Gu villain has already set Ning Ruhai on fire. Not only did he want to ground Ning Xiang and the others, but he also said that he would conduct a thorough investigation. Go on, their conspiracy will be revealed sooner or later.
Ning Yuan can think of this level, so can Ning Pinger. She originally thought she would only succeed and not fail, so many things were not done perfectly. Regarding the source of the arsenic, as long as you go to the big and small pharmacies in the city to inquire, sooner or later you will find out that Ningxiang sent someone to buy it.
At that time, it will be a certainty that their brother and sister will be accused of poisoning and framing them, but will Ning Ruhai still protect them?Normally, Ning Ping'er might believe that her father, who has always loved them, would not really punish them, but now, that villain of witchcraft poked Ning Ruhai's Ni Lin, and watched him angrily slap Liu Shi Such a bitch, Ning Ping'er suddenly didn't dare to gamble.
Thinking of this, Ning Ping'er gritted her silver teeth, then knelt down with a puff, and said crisply: "Father, my daughter knows her mistake, sister Xiang'er is right, the poisoning was indeed ordered by her daughter, that little witch gu People don't do mother's business, I prepared it!"
"Ping'er, you..." Liu Shi and Ning Xiang were pulling with the servants who came to drag them, and Ning Ping'er made such a sudden disturbance, which made them both stunned on the spot.
Ning Ruhai narrowed his eyes and looked at Ning Pinger, "What did you say?"
"My daughter said that the poisoning and the witches and villains are all done by my daughter." Ning Ping'er's slender eyelashes trembled, and two tears rolled down, and she kowtowed heavily, "At this time, I'm with you." The mother and the elder brother have nothing to do with each other, the daughter is confused, she did such a wrong thing, and tried to put the blame on others, which upset the father, please punish him."
Her tone was mournful, with two tear marks on her pale face, she looked very pitiful, Ning Ruhai's heart tightened, and her anger calmed down, but her tone was still cold and severe, "So, you let Xiang'er Poisoning, is it really to frame your third brother?"
Ning Pinger nodded.
"You also messed with this witch and gu villain, you even want to kill grandma?"
Ning Ping'er bit her lower lip tightly, then nodded.
"You're too presumptuous!" Ning Ruhai stood up suddenly, walked up to Ning Ping'er, and raised her hand to hit her, but at this moment, Ning Ping'er also raised her head to look at her, with a pair of crystal clear eyes. With tears in his eyes and a feeling of despondency, Ning Ruhai was so angry that his hands were shaking, but he couldn't really slap this slap.
In the end, he withdrew his hand angrily, returned to the chair and sat down, and shouted angrily: "Forget it, tell me why you did these things!"
"Father, Pinger didn't really want to harm third brother, let alone curse grandma. Pinger did it because she was unwilling." Ning Pinger sobbed and said, "In the past, grandma always loved Pinger the most. , but since the appearance of the third brother, everything has changed. Grandma no longer loves Pinger as much as before, but loves the third brother more. Confused, I thought that if there was no third brother, maybe, maybe grandma would love me the most, woo woo woo..." In the end, her sobs turned into wailing.
Although Ning Ping'er has a lot of scheming, she is only 13 years old. In the eyes of others, she is just a little girl. In addition to crying like this, no matter how you look at it, she feels like a helpless child who has made mistakes. Ning Ruhai did not speak, but Shen Shi The face moved first, "So, you got that villain to curse grandma because you resented grandma for being partial?"
"Grandmother, Pinger shouldn't do this. Grandma doesn't love Pinger as much as she used to. It must be because Pinger has not done well enough. Pinger doesn't find the reason from herself, but resents her grandmother. This is a big deal. Unfilial, grandma should not like me. Compared with the filial third brother, I am an unfilial girl who is far behind." After choking, Ning Pinger kowtowed again, "That villain will In my mother's room, it was because my mother found these dirty things on my hands. She reprimanded me severely at that time, and took the things away, saying that she would destroy them on an auspicious day so as not to damage the old lady. Mother has always respected the old lady, the one who is unfilial is the daughter, please don't blame the old lady and father!"
Liu Shi has already heard that Ning Pinger intends to take everything on herself to protect her and Ning Xiang. Although she couldn't bear it in her heart, she still rushed to Ning Pinger's side, crying and hugging her. Together: "Ping'er, why bother to speak out, why don't you let mother carry it for you!"
"Mother, you are my own mother. My daughter is not filial, so how can I hurt you again!" Ning Ping'er also burst into tears.
From the vicious deeds to the deep love between mother and daughter, the roles of Liu and Ning Ping'er have changed smoothly.
Ning Xiang also said with a sad expression: "Father, my sister made such a mistake. As an elder brother, I cannot absolve myself of the responsibility. I also ask my father to be magnanimous and forgive her. If I really want to be punished, I will fight for him."
"Second brother is really magnanimous. It's a blessing that has been cultivated in several lifetimes for sister Ping'er to have a brother like you." Ning Yuan chuckled lightly.
"Isn't it?" Jing Yi couldn't see it anymore, and chimed in: "The half-brother made a mistake, so he wanted to be burned at the stake, and his younger sister made an even bigger mistake, but kept begging for forgiveness." , really has red mouth and white teeth, she is not afraid that the wind will flash her tongue and hit her face."
"You..." Ning Xiang's face froze.
"Enough is enough, the mistakes Ning Ping'er made are truly unforgivable!" Ning Ruhai said in a deep voice, "Poisoning and framing my elder brother, and cursing the old lady with the technique of disgusting victory, my father loves you for nothing. If you can pretend that your daughter has never been born, someone will send her to the ancestral hall, and deal with it according to the family law in front of the ancestor's tablet, what to do, what to do!"
Ning Ping'er was shocked, her face turned pale.The Ning family's family law is very simple, that is, to make boards. The boards are made of solid wood and are two inches thick. After a few boards, the skin will be torn apart. With the crimes on her body, just cursing her grandmother is enough for her. With hundreds of boards, I am afraid that if she can't even bear half of it, she will die and die.
"Master, you can't be so cruel, Ping'er is your own daughter!" Mrs. Liu threw herself on the ground, holding Ning Ruhai's calf tightly, "Punish me, Ping'er is so small, how can she bear it?" How could Wei Niang just watch her die!"
"You bitch and adoptive daughter don't teach, yet you still have the face to beg for mercy. I'll settle accounts with you later, get out!" Ning Ruhai kicked Liu Shi away, pointed at Ning Ping'er and said, "Not yet. Tow away!"
Immediately
Mrs. Shen has always trusted Dr. Zheng, and just now she heard that Ning Xiang and Ning Ping'er contradicted him one after another, and she was a little unhappy. Now that she heard Dr. Zheng's words, she thought that Ning Yuan was so filial, but what she was going to give her was actually said by others He became a poison, and was almost charged with poisoning his relatives. He felt even more distressed, and hurriedly reached out his hand to Ning Yuan, "My good boy, I have really wronged you."
"Yes, yes, Yuan'er was really wronged. Fortunately, Dr. Zheng has the insight to clear up Yuan'er's grievances. Otherwise, if Yuan'er's charges are confirmed, it will not be a big mistake!" Seeing the situation, Mrs. Liu It wasn't quite right, so he hurriedly agreed, while trying to wink at Ning Xiang and Ning Ping'er, to let them know how to advance and retreat.Ning Ping'er already understood that the prepared arsenic had inexplicably turned into realgar powder, which meant that there must be something wrong, and today's work was over, so she quietly retreated to Liu Shi's side, but Ning Xiang was still unconvinced. The city government is not as profound as Ning Ping'er, seeing that Ning Yuan could be put to death just a little bit, how could he be willing to do so if he fell short like this!So he still went his own way and said to Ning Ruhai: "Father, this matter can't be left as it is. Father is wise, you can't let the poisoner go unpunished!"
"Second brother really speaks uprightly. My father is talented and discerning. Naturally, he will never let those evil-minded people go unpunished." It was louder than Ning Xiang, "Father has already searched the Zhuxuantang. Although no evidence was found, Yuan'er was involved in it, and it cannot be said that he is completely innocent. A thorough investigation into this matter, anyone who can come into contact with Yuanzi must not let it go, and finding out the real culprit will firstly give Yuan'er a clean slate, and secondly, it will also calm people's hearts. After all, if there is a poisoner lurking in the mansion If the madman is not eradicated, is it true that everyone will have to test it with silver needles before eating in the future?"
"Yuan'er's words are reasonable, and this matter must be investigated carefully." Shen nodded, but her eyes fell on Ning Xiang'er who had been silent by her side for a long time.
After all, the ball was made by Ning Xiang'er, and it was only because of her crying at the beginning, and the fact that Ning Xiang and Ning Ping'er took advantage of the wind, that the fire was set on Ning Yuan. , I have to find out from Ning Xiang'er.
Ning Ruhai understood what Shen meant, but he was also puzzled this time. If Ning Yuan really wasn't the one who poisoned, then who was the one who did the poisoning?
"Housekeeper, take someone to search Xiang'er's yard to see if you can find anything." Ning Ruhai ordered.
Ning Xiang'er was shocked all over, but she still tried her best to keep herself calm. She felt that the room was clean, but she couldn't find anything.
But sometimes things backfired, the housekeeper left quickly this time, and came back very quickly, and also held an oiled paper bag in his hand, which was almost the same as the one he had just found from the Bamboo Xuantang.
Ning Xiang'er's heart skipped a beat, and she watched the butler open the paper bag in front of Ning Ruhai, revealing the crystal white powder inside, and said, "Master, this was found in the cupboard of Miss Xiang'er's bedroom. .”
Ning Ruhai's face suddenly turned serious, turned to look at Ning Xiang'er, and asked, "What is this?"
"I... I don't know..." Ning Xiang'er was a little silly, and a bad premonition quickly rose from her heart.
And Dr. Zheng over there has already stepped forward under Shen's instruction and began to inspect the powder. After a while, he raised his head and slowly uttered a sentence that sounded like a bolt from the blue to Ning Xianger: "This bag is just a piece of powder. It's real arsenic."
"Impossible!" Ning Xiang'er screamed, "How could there be such a thing in my room? This is a false accusation! A false accusation!" She was trembling all over, completely panicked.How could this be possible, the arsenic hidden in Zhuxuantang somehow turned into a pack of realgar powder, but the real arsenic was in her room!
"Master, this must be framed. Xiang'er has always been gentle and kind, how could she do something like poisoning!" Mrs. Zhang, who had been gloating by the side before, saw the fire on her daughter's head, and immediately let out a thud. Kneel down and beg for mercy.
"Aunt Zhang, facts speak louder than words. Sister Xiang'er made the ball, and the arsenic was also found in Sister Xiang'er's house. The evidence is conclusive and cannot be denied. Moreover, I believe that Sister Xiang'er's boudoir cannot be entered by ordinary people. Yes." Ning Yuan said calmly.
"Damn it, it turns out that you are a scum from your family!" Ning Ruhai stepped forward two steps, and wanted to slap Ning Xiang'er with a slap. Mrs. Zhang rushed forward to block her daughter, and the slap fell heavily on Mrs. Zhang. On her face, with Ning Ruhai's strength, her cheeks were ripped apart, and a line of blood slid down the corner of her mouth.
"Father, my daughter was wronged! My daughter was wronged!" Seeing her mother being beaten like that, Ning Xiang'er burst into tears. She wanted to tell herself, but she didn't know what to say. Suddenly, she thought of Ning Yuan. One sentence she said-"I believe that ordinary people can't enter Sister Xiang'er's boudoir." Indeed, few people enter her boudoir, and the only people who came to her boudoir to sit in her boudoir recently... Thinking of this, she felt a tingle all over her body. Zhen, as if grabbing some life-saving straw, raised his hand and pointed at Ning Xiang, and said sharply, "It's you! It's you who wants to kill me!"
Ning Xiang suddenly panicked, "Sister Xiang'er, don't spit blood, when, when did I hurt you!"
"Damn! If you dare to do it, you must admit it. No one has entered my room recently except you. I am so stupid! I am so stupid to think that you two brothers and sisters treat me sincerely and can find a good marriage for me. I That’s why I’m willing to do things for you, to help you frame your third brother, but I don’t want you to be so ruthless, and it’s not the third brother you want to plot for a long time, but me!” Speaking of this, Ning Xiang'er seemed to be unable to bear it any longer, she threw herself on the ground and burst into tears.
"You, you, you, what are you talking about, you damn girl, you don't know how to repent when you die, and you still want to frame others, come on, hurry up and drag this crazy girl down!" Liu's face was full of panic, almost jumping Going up to cover Ning Xiang'er's mouth, Ning Xiang and Ning Ping'er's complexions turned even paler.
"I just want to say, I want to reveal all your shady schemes in front of everyone! You want to harm me? There is no door! At worst, everyone will die and no one will live!" Ning Xiang'er became red. Eyes, two servants had broken into the door and tried to drag her out, but she struggled to break free, crawled forward with disheveled hair, threw herself at Ning Ruhai's feet and cried, "Father, my daughter is wronged! Wronged! "
"Crying like a crazy woman, how decent is it!" Ning Ruhai's face was extremely ugly, as if he didn't want to hear Ning Xiang'er's judgment at all, and kicked her away forcefully, "Hurry up and take her away, lock her up first Enter the ancestral hall and try again at another day!"
"Wait." Ning Yuan suddenly turned his body to prevent the two servants from approaching Ning Xiang'er, then he took two steps forward, walked to the center of the hall, bowed his hands to Ning Ruhai, and said loudly : "Father, although Sister Xiang'er said nothing, she kept talking about Hai'er, saying that someone was plotting against Hai'er, so Hai'er had to be careful, and there were many doubts about the whole matter. He thought it's better to let Sister Xiang'er take care of Hai'er now." Can you speak clearly?"
"She's so crazy, what can she say, even if she speaks, it's crazy, I can't hear it." Ning Ruhai waved his hand to interrupt Ning Yuan.In fact, could he not understand the meaning of what Ning Xianger said?Of course he heard it, but since the matter involved Ning Xiang and Ning Ping'er, his favorite children, he had to turn a blind eye and plan to suppress the matter first.
Ning Yuan saw that Ning Ruhai was trying to protect him, how could he let him get what he wanted, and immediately turned to Shen and said, "Grandmother, if Sister Xiang'er really has grievances, it's better to let her speak out now, otherwise If you imprisoned people in the ancestral hall so hastily, it would be equivalent to confirming your sister's crime. Even if you release her later, the consequences will be irreparable.
In Dazhou, shutting down the ancestral hall was a serious punishment for disciplining the family's children who made mistakes.In the ancestral hall, there are nuns who specialize in teaching etiquette. They are withdrawn and powerful. Once they are imprisoned, they live in a room that is dark all day long. They lack food and clothing, and they will be punished in front of the ancestral tablet. He was a lively person before, and he will definitely become crazy when he comes out.
Of course, the physical pain is secondary, but if a person is imprisoned in the ancestral hall, it means that the elders of the family have confirmed his crime, and if it is spread, it will be the biggest stain in his life. She said that getting such a stain on her body would be more uncomfortable than killing her.
When Ning Yuan said these words, he was naturally not feeling sorry for Ning Xiang'er, but if Ning Xiang'er was imprisoned in the ancestral hall like this, the play would not be able to continue.Seeing Ning Ruhai's expression of trying to hold back his anger, Ning Yuan couldn't help but feel happy. I want to see if you, a father who protects his weaknesses, can continue to cover up shamelessly under the eyes of everyone!
019 Adding insult to injury
Jing Yi, who had been silent before, also opened his mouth at this time, "Master Ning, although this is your family's housework, and I have no position to gossip as an outsider, but Brother Yuan is also reasonable, and this kind of thing is still done in one go. It's good to find out, even if it's not for Brother Yuan himself, it would be unfair to Miss Xiang'er to settle the matter in such an ambiguous way."
The reason why Jing Yi has been watching from the sidelines, not even being moved by Ning Yuan being kidnapped, is that Ning Yuan has taken care of him in advance, no matter what happens in the future, he just needs to watch from the sidelines.Although he didn't know what Ning Yuan was trying to sell, but seeing Ning Yuan's confident appearance, he kept his temper and held back without saying a word. Now that Ning Yuan has saved the day, he even lost one who seemed to be helping to speak. Looking at him, Jing Yi's always hasty temper couldn't sit still anymore, and he spoke immediately.
When his voice sounded, Ning Ruhai couldn't help being moved, how could he forget that there was still a prince Jing Guogong present in the room.
Once there are outsiders watching such an occasion, many things will not be easy to handle. If he continues to deliberately maintain it, in the eyes of others, he will be a selfish image of right and wrong, and spread his old face To or not to.
Thinking of this, he could only flick his sleeves angrily, turned around and sat down beside Shen, straightened his face and said to Ning Xiang'er: "You can say whatever you want, if there is a half-truth, you don't have to go to the ancestral hall Now, I will send you directly to the Lingxu Temple in Yuling Mountain outside the city, and let you confess to the ancient Buddha of Qingdeng!"
Yuling Mountain Lingxu Temple, is this going to send her to become a nun?Ning Xiang'er was so frightened that her face turned pale, she immediately trembled all over and kowtowed, hitting the floor with a bang, and said in a panic: "Father knows that everything my daughter said is true, and I dare not lie a little bit. The poison was indeed poisoned by the daughter, but the daughter completely listened to the instigation of the second brother and sister Pinger, and even the arsenic used was given to me by the second brother himself!"
As Ning Xiang'er's mouth turned the whole thing over like beans, Ning Ruhai's face turned greener and greener, Shen's frown became tighter, and Liu's and Ning Xiang's and Ning Ping'er's complexions became more and more serious. Getting whiter and whiter, but Jing Yi's mouth opened wider and wider.
Ning Ping'er's plan was very well thought out, so Ning Xiang'er took the opportunity of going to Zhuxuantang to heat the dumplings, and secretly hid a pack of arsenic in the kitchen, and framed Ning Yuan for the crime of poisoning.It was very safe to do so. First of all, Ning Xiang'er and Ning Yuan had no old grievances, and sending Yuanzi to the door would not arouse Ning Yuan's vigilance. In addition, there was a circle in the middle, making people mistakenly think that the person who was going to be poisoned was Ning Ping'er. , so that even if the matter fails, no one will notice that the poison is related to Ning Ping'er, and there will never be anyone in this world so stupid as to poison themselves to harm themselves.
But she did all the calculations, and she didn't expect that the prepared arsenic was dropped by someone, but the real arsenic entered Ning Xiang'er's house.Originally, there was no real evidence, even if the poisonous ball was made by Ning Xiang'er, as long as she bites it to death and doesn't let go, naturally she doesn't have to bear any responsibility. This is why she agreed to Ning Ping'er, but now it's different. After finding the arsenic, it was unclear that she had poisoned it. In order to protect herself, Ning Xiang'er didn't even care about a rich marriage. There is money to be made.
"The general thing is like this. Sister Ping'er said to her daughter that if she can successfully get rid of the third brother, she can let Aunt Liu take me to the spring banquet in the palace in a few months, and find a good husband's house for her daughter. My daughter was deceived by lard for a while, so she followed them. Now the arsenic in my daughter's room must have been hidden by my second brother. My daughter understands that they are just using a pretense to lure me into a trap. In fact, they want to frame her. My daughter is really confused, if there is a heaven-sent marriage, how can sister Ping'er help me, I'm afraid it's too late for her to stick it up!" Ning Xiang'er burst into tears, her forehead was already red and swollen, "Father knows, daughter Injustice! Injustice!"
"You...don't spitting blood!" Ning Xiang said nervously: "Father, this girl is simply crazy. She can't do it by poisoning others by herself. When she dies, she still doesn't forget to frame me and my sister. Father, don't believe it!"
"Master, this is framing. Ping'er is only 13 years old, and she is still a child. How could she come up with such a conspiracy? It's obviously Xiang'er, a girl who is making nonsense!" Liu Shi also said eagerly.
The two sides yelled at each other and bit into a ball, until Ning Ruhai's temples were beating non-stop. He took a few deep breaths and said to Ning Xiang'er: "You said that Xiang'er and Ping'er instigated this matter, but it's just a one-sided statement. , is there any other evidence?"
"There are also thrush and coral!" Ning Xiang'er pointed to the two maids behind her, "They, they can testify!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, Thrushcross and Coral immediately kowtowed like garlic, "Master, the servants don't know anything. The servants just obeyed Miss Xiang'er's order to hide a package of things in the bamboo canopy." Tang, at the end, I have to give false testimony that I saw a strange girl going in and out of the kitchen, and the servants don't know anything about the rest!"
"You..." Ning Xiang'er's face was dull, and she realized that when Ning Xiang came to him to talk about these things, she specially asked her to push back the servants, and she didn't say much to the maids around her afterwards. Therefore, although Thrush and Coral participated in it, they didn't know the inside story.
Ning Ruhai obviously breathed a sigh of relief, "Since you can't produce any other evidence, everyone will say what you say, so how do I know if you are jumping the wall in a hurry to frame Xiang'er and Ping'er."
"Father, if you don't look for evidence, he won't jump in front of you." Ning Yuan suddenly said coldly, "Since sister Xiang'er said so convincingly, Yuan'er thinks that many Things don’t come from nowhere.”
Ning Ruhai glanced at him, "How are you doing?"
"Please father, send someone to the second brother's residence to check." After a pause, he continued: "Not only the second brother, but also the rooms of Aunt Liu and Sister Ping'er. If What Sister Xianger said is true, there will always be some clues to be found. If Sister Xianger is really jumping over the wall in a hurry to bite, it can also prove the innocence of the second brother and Sister Pinger, so that people will use these words to reproduce right and wrong in the future. It ruined the reputation of the second brother and the younger sister."
"You actually want to search my house?" Ning Xiang almost jumped up and cursed: "Ning Yuan, you are so brave!"
"Second brother, third brother is also thinking of you, otherwise how can you prove that sister Xiang'er is framing you?" Ning Yuan blinked with an innocent face, "Or, is there really something shady in the second brother's room?"
"You..." Ning Xiang's face was flushed, and he couldn't refute even half a sentence.
Ning Ping'er also said: "Father, elder brother and Ping'er were clearly wronged, the shame of searching the house is too great, even if we can prove our innocence, we brothers and sisters will definitely be ridiculed in the future, how can we gain a foothold in this Ning Mansion?"
"Sister Ping'er's words are really unreasonable." Ning Yuan said softly: "My house can be searched, and sister Xiang'er's house can be searched, why can't I search for sister Ping'er's place? I think I am a thin-skinned person, If you are not afraid of these things and can still live a frank and open life, what is little sister Ping'er afraid of?"
In a word, it ran Ning Ping'er, scolded her for being thick-skinned, and reminded Ning Ruhai that my place, Ning Yuan and Ning Xiang'er, had been searched. of eccentricity.
"Butler." Ning Ruhai had no choice but to take a look at the butler. The butler's expression froze, and he took the man away for the third time.
Ning Xiang clenched his fists tightly, seeing Ning Yuan's smiling face, he really wanted to punch him so that his mouth and nose would bleed.Ning Pinger clenched her small fists in her sleeves, but unlike Ning Xiang's anger, Ning Pinger was nervous.
She has already seen that Ning Yuan probably has seen through their schemes long ago, and used their schemes, and set up a trick and waited for them to exploit them. , it must be Ning Yuan's handwriting, and since he can put things into Ning Xiang'er's bedroom without anyone noticing, what about his own bedroom?
But after thinking about it, Ning Ping'er felt that it was impossible, her room with Ning Xiang's was no different than Ning Xiang'er's.Ning Xiang'er's status is not high, and there are few servants serving in the house, so it is easy for people to sneak in, but Liu's Hexin Garden has a lot of maids and women, and there are always maids in the house, so how can outsiders be allowed to take advantage of it? Not to mention the Changhui Hall where Ning Xiang, the most beloved young master, lives.
Thinking of this level, Ning Ping'er couldn't help but relax, that's right, even if Ning Yuan had a conspiracy, he didn't have that chance, he must be bluffing, and he didn't have to be afraid at all.
The housekeeper took a very long time to go this time, after all, there were three places to search, the tea in the room was served three times, and the charcoal fire was changed for a round before seeing him come back.
Seeing that the butler was empty-handed, Ning Ping'er couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, presumably nothing was found.
The fact was not as she expected, the housekeeper bowed to Ning Ruhai, "Master, the rooms of the Second Young Master and Miss Ping'er are clean, there is nothing."
Ning Ruhai's face brightened, "So you won't do anything about Xiang'er and Ping'er?"
"Father, I said that my sister and I were wronged, it was all Xiang'er talking nonsense!" Ning Xiang's heart fell to the ground, and he did not forget to look at Ning Yuan with a face full of pride.
But what the housekeeper said next made everyone stunned on the spot.
"It's just that the servants came from the third lady's room in Hexinyuan..." The housekeeper showed a hesitant expression, and slowly took a long mahogany box from the servant behind him.
The moment Liu saw the mahogany box, her whole body trembled and she almost couldn't stand up.
Ning Ping'er noticed the change in Liu's family, and suddenly her heart skipped a beat. The box was also opened by the butler at this time. The butler shook his hands, and took out a little man tied with straw from inside.
The villain is about half a foot in size, and is made with a nose and eyes. On the front, there is a piece of paper with the birth date written on it, and the whole body is covered with silver needles.
"Oh my god, this is the art of disgust!" The aunts in the room were in a commotion, countless eyes looked at the things in the housekeeper's hands in horror, and Liu Shi rolled his eyes, trembling all over, and was about to faint .
How did she forget that there was this thing in her house!
This Witch Gu villain is what she plans to use to deal with Ning Yuan during the ancestor worship tonight. This is also her plan from the beginning. She originally planned to take advantage of everyone's gathering for tea after dinner and when there are few people in the backyard. , sent someone to hide in the Zhuxuan Hall without anyone noticing, not wanting to cause a commotion between Ning Xiang and Ning Ping'er, the villain had already been searched out before she even started to do anything.
For a moment, Mrs. Liu wished she could strangle her sons and daughters to death. Not only did she fail to bring down Ning Yuan, but she wanted to kill her, a mother!
The housekeeper handed the villain to Ning Ruhai trembling all over, and then he didn't dare to look at his face anymore.He has been in the Ning Manor for many years, so he naturally understands Ning Ruhai's temper. Ning Ruhai, who was born in the army, usually hates these witchcraft and evil rumors the most, not to mention the date of birth posted by the servant, which is clearly, clearly, the old man Shen's birthday horoscope!
Sure enough, Ning Ruhai only glanced at the villain, then his whole body was shaken. He threw the villain onto Liu Shi's face and shouted angrily, "You poisonous woman!"
Although Liushi hid, she was still poked in the face by a few silver needles, and her face was bloodstained for a while, but she didn't care about the pain, knelt on the ground and crawled to Ning Ruhai's feet, hugging his leg and crying: "Master, that thing doesn't belong to my concubine, someone is framing me, sir, don't believe it! Don't believe it!"
But Ning Ruhai really started a fire, so it's up to Mrs. Liu to tell.He really loves this beautiful and beautiful third lady, and he really likes Ning Xiang and Ning Pinger, a pair of clever children, so he always takes care of them more on weekdays, but this does not mean that they can ride until the old lady sinks. on his head.
Shen Shi was sitting next to Ning Ruhai, and she naturally saw the date of birth on the villain. Although she was angry in her heart, her status as an old lady and the demeanor of a lady cultivated since she was a child prevented her from being like a willow. He yelled casually like that, and just said lightly, "It turns out that this old lady wants to curse me like this because she hates the third daughter-in-law so much. If I don't pour tea to you and admit my mistake, I really can't justify it."
"Old madam, my daughter-in-law has been wronged. My daughter-in-law has always respected you, how could she do such a thing!" Mrs. Liu used her ability of howling ghosts and howling wolves to ten percent. She knew that disaster was imminent, if she didn't work harder, Cursing the old lady with the technique of disgusting victory, this crime alone is enough to make him irreparable.
"Respect me?" Mrs. Shen sneered, and began to imitate Mrs. Liu's tone, and said something that left Mrs. Liu speechless for a moment, "'The old godly woman doesn't even think about this poor family property of Wu'anbo Mansion, How much money does it cost to support such a family, the income is not enough to make ends meet every month, every month is stretched, it is not bad to be able to eat and drink for her, but she even put on a face for me, if I am not working hard, then Let her take this big family to drink the northwest wind', third daughter-in-law, these words, but you said it yourself, are not adulterated."
It is said that there is nothing impenetrable in the world, but someone accidentally overheard an angry word Liu said in her room, and spread it to Shen's ears. The reason why Shen kept pretending I don't know, apart from the fact that Mrs. Liu has always been loved by Ning Ruhai, Mrs. Chen doesn't want to make her son unhappy, and she doesn't want to be seen like the younger generation, so that she doesn't appear to be magnanimous enough.Unexpectedly, she didn't want to care about it, but Liu Shi made an inch of it, even using such a curse technique, as far as Shen Shi was concerned, it was too much to bear.
Hearing what Shen said, Ning Ruhai became even more furious. Although he was partial to his children, he was a filial son, and his mother's status was above everything else. Seeing Shen being humiliated, he became furious for a moment, wishing to slap Liu again. , and most of the preference for Ning Xiang and Ning Ping'er disappeared.Taking a few breaths, he yelled at Liu Shi: "You bitch is really poisonous like a snake and scorpion, how dare you use these things to curse the old lady, it shows that I dote on you too much, and let you be so lawless!" After finishing speaking, he pointed at Ning Xiang and Ning Ping'er again, and his tone became even more severe, "With such a vicious mother-in-law, what can you two learn in daily life? I'm afraid Xiang'er is right. You may not be able to get away with it!"
"Father, we are wronged!" Ning Xiang wanted to distinguish, but Ning Ruhai raised his hand to stop him: "It is up to you to say whether you are wronged or not. Father will check it out. Housekeeper, put them back in your room first." Don't let them go out without my order in the house!" Ning Ruhai pointed at Ning Xiang, Ning Ping'er and Ning Xiang'er in turn, and finally landed on Liu Shi, "As for this bitch , shut him into the ancestral hall, and ordered the mother-in-law to teach her the three obediences and four virtues!"
020 The dust settles
The scene where Ning Yuan watched with raised eyebrows encouraged Ning Ruhai to search the house. Originally, he just had the idea of trying to see if he could find some clues from their room, but he didn't expect much. Because just as Ning Pinger thought, he could let Zhou Shi quietly hide the dropped arsenic in Ning Xianger's room, but he was not sure that he could go in and out of Ning Xiang's or Ning Pinger's room without being discovered.
On the first day after he came back from rebirth, when he quietly sneaked into Hexin Garden to steal jade and coral bracelets, Ning Yuan noticed that there were many people in Hexin Garden, and there were groups of maids and women, wanting to quietly It is very difficult to sneak in and come out again. If you are not careful, you will be discovered, so I didn't take this risk.
It's just that he didn't expect that he could catch such a big fish from Liu's bedroom even though he couldn't find any clues.
Regarding the poisoning, even if there is Ning Xianger's accusation, there is no real evidence. Ning Yuan expected that Ning Ruhai would not do anything to Ning Xiang and Ning Pinger. That's right, that Witch Gu villain has already set Ning Ruhai on fire. Not only did he want to ground Ning Xiang and the others, but he also said that he would conduct a thorough investigation. Go on, their conspiracy will be revealed sooner or later.
Ning Yuan can think of this level, so can Ning Pinger. She originally thought she would only succeed and not fail, so many things were not done perfectly. Regarding the source of the arsenic, as long as you go to the big and small pharmacies in the city to inquire, sooner or later you will find out that Ningxiang sent someone to buy it.
At that time, it will be a certainty that their brother and sister will be accused of poisoning and framing them, but will Ning Ruhai still protect them?Normally, Ning Ping'er might believe that her father, who has always loved them, would not really punish them, but now, that villain of witchcraft poked Ning Ruhai's Ni Lin, and watched him angrily slap Liu Shi Such a bitch, Ning Ping'er suddenly didn't dare to gamble.
Thinking of this, Ning Ping'er gritted her silver teeth, then knelt down with a puff, and said crisply: "Father, my daughter knows her mistake, sister Xiang'er is right, the poisoning was indeed ordered by her daughter, that little witch gu People don't do mother's business, I prepared it!"
"Ping'er, you..." Liu Shi and Ning Xiang were pulling with the servants who came to drag them, and Ning Ping'er made such a sudden disturbance, which made them both stunned on the spot.
Ning Ruhai narrowed his eyes and looked at Ning Pinger, "What did you say?"
"My daughter said that the poisoning and the witches and villains are all done by my daughter." Ning Ping'er's slender eyelashes trembled, and two tears rolled down, and she kowtowed heavily, "At this time, I'm with you." The mother and the elder brother have nothing to do with each other, the daughter is confused, she did such a wrong thing, and tried to put the blame on others, which upset the father, please punish him."
Her tone was mournful, with two tear marks on her pale face, she looked very pitiful, Ning Ruhai's heart tightened, and her anger calmed down, but her tone was still cold and severe, "So, you let Xiang'er Poisoning, is it really to frame your third brother?"
Ning Pinger nodded.
"You also messed with this witch and gu villain, you even want to kill grandma?"
Ning Ping'er bit her lower lip tightly, then nodded.
"You're too presumptuous!" Ning Ruhai stood up suddenly, walked up to Ning Ping'er, and raised her hand to hit her, but at this moment, Ning Ping'er also raised her head to look at her, with a pair of crystal clear eyes. With tears in his eyes and a feeling of despondency, Ning Ruhai was so angry that his hands were shaking, but he couldn't really slap this slap.
In the end, he withdrew his hand angrily, returned to the chair and sat down, and shouted angrily: "Forget it, tell me why you did these things!"
"Father, Pinger didn't really want to harm third brother, let alone curse grandma. Pinger did it because she was unwilling." Ning Pinger sobbed and said, "In the past, grandma always loved Pinger the most. , but since the appearance of the third brother, everything has changed. Grandma no longer loves Pinger as much as before, but loves the third brother more. Confused, I thought that if there was no third brother, maybe, maybe grandma would love me the most, woo woo woo..." In the end, her sobs turned into wailing.
Although Ning Ping'er has a lot of scheming, she is only 13 years old. In the eyes of others, she is just a little girl. In addition to crying like this, no matter how you look at it, she feels like a helpless child who has made mistakes. Ning Ruhai did not speak, but Shen Shi The face moved first, "So, you got that villain to curse grandma because you resented grandma for being partial?"
"Grandmother, Pinger shouldn't do this. Grandma doesn't love Pinger as much as she used to. It must be because Pinger has not done well enough. Pinger doesn't find the reason from herself, but resents her grandmother. This is a big deal. Unfilial, grandma should not like me. Compared with the filial third brother, I am an unfilial girl who is far behind." After choking, Ning Pinger kowtowed again, "That villain will In my mother's room, it was because my mother found these dirty things on my hands. She reprimanded me severely at that time, and took the things away, saying that she would destroy them on an auspicious day so as not to damage the old lady. Mother has always respected the old lady, the one who is unfilial is the daughter, please don't blame the old lady and father!"
Liu Shi has already heard that Ning Pinger intends to take everything on herself to protect her and Ning Xiang. Although she couldn't bear it in her heart, she still rushed to Ning Pinger's side, crying and hugging her. Together: "Ping'er, why bother to speak out, why don't you let mother carry it for you!"
"Mother, you are my own mother. My daughter is not filial, so how can I hurt you again!" Ning Ping'er also burst into tears.
From the vicious deeds to the deep love between mother and daughter, the roles of Liu and Ning Ping'er have changed smoothly.
Ning Xiang also said with a sad expression: "Father, my sister made such a mistake. As an elder brother, I cannot absolve myself of the responsibility. I also ask my father to be magnanimous and forgive her. If I really want to be punished, I will fight for him."
"Second brother is really magnanimous. It's a blessing that has been cultivated in several lifetimes for sister Ping'er to have a brother like you." Ning Yuan chuckled lightly.
"Isn't it?" Jing Yi couldn't see it anymore, and chimed in: "The half-brother made a mistake, so he wanted to be burned at the stake, and his younger sister made an even bigger mistake, but kept begging for forgiveness." , really has red mouth and white teeth, she is not afraid that the wind will flash her tongue and hit her face."
"You..." Ning Xiang's face froze.
"Enough is enough, the mistakes Ning Ping'er made are truly unforgivable!" Ning Ruhai said in a deep voice, "Poisoning and framing my elder brother, and cursing the old lady with the technique of disgusting victory, my father loves you for nothing. If you can pretend that your daughter has never been born, someone will send her to the ancestral hall, and deal with it according to the family law in front of the ancestor's tablet, what to do, what to do!"
Ning Ping'er was shocked, her face turned pale.The Ning family's family law is very simple, that is, to make boards. The boards are made of solid wood and are two inches thick. After a few boards, the skin will be torn apart. With the crimes on her body, just cursing her grandmother is enough for her. With hundreds of boards, I am afraid that if she can't even bear half of it, she will die and die.
"Master, you can't be so cruel, Ping'er is your own daughter!" Mrs. Liu threw herself on the ground, holding Ning Ruhai's calf tightly, "Punish me, Ping'er is so small, how can she bear it?" How could Wei Niang just watch her die!"
"You bitch and adoptive daughter don't teach, yet you still have the face to beg for mercy. I'll settle accounts with you later, get out!" Ning Ruhai kicked Liu Shi away, pointed at Ning Ping'er and said, "Not yet. Tow away!"
