Chapter 252

It's too late. At that time, Shi Yong rushed forward. In panic, he grabbed cherry's hair and pulled her back.

Gu Manqing sends out a cry, the flaming fire pot, smashes at her head to head.

Seeing that the fire pot was about to smash his head against Gu Manqing, Du Youtian suddenly raised his foot and kicked the fallen fire pot away. Gu Manqing covers her face and screams. Although she narrowly escaped, she is still burned by the scattered Mars.

Just as everyone's eyes are focused on Gu Manqing, the greater danger is quietly approaching. The wooden pillar with the soul stirring banner is slowly falling down towards the cherry. At the top of the pillar are three sharp knives.

Gu Manqing doesn't care about the wound on his face, jumps up and pours down the cherry. The pillar fell to the ground in the panic of all the people and hit Gu Manqing's waist heavily. Gu Manqing's screams of horror stopped abruptly, and she lost consciousness instantly.

Cherry crouches on the ground in horror, holding her head in her hands, and hysterically says, "Gu Shi wants to kill me, Gu Shi wants to kill me! You've all seen it. She wants to kill me! "

The housekeeper asked the servants to take Gu Manqing, who was seriously injured, to her room, and sent for the doctor in a panic.

Shi Yong looks at the scene, grabs the frightened little Taoist and asks. The little Taoist was frightened. He couldn't speak easily. He couldn't ask why.

Du Youtian squatted on the ground and carefully observed the fallen wooden pillars. One end of the wooden post is tied to the overturned wooden frame with a rope. When the wooden frame is overturned, the wooden post with the spirit calling banner is naturally moved. After repeated investigation and verification, neither of them can find any trace of man-made. It's just an accident. A well arranged Dharma in the Ji mansion can only be curtly accepted.

Shi Yong and Du Youtian walk back with cherries. All the way, cherries are holding their shoulders and muttering to themselves in the carriage.

Murong Zhining is quietly reading a book beside the stone table in Jin palace. Chiyun Yuexuan sat on the stone bench next to her, with her hands on her cheeks, and looked at her quietly: "why is it so beautiful for the lady to move and be still?"

Murong Zhining flashed her eyelashes and raised her eyes to chiyun Yuexuan. Her eyes went back to the book: "the general finally had a moment of leisure, but he spent all his time looking at Ning'er and dazed."

Chiyun Yuexuan angrily grasps the book on Murong Zhining's hand: "Ning'er still knows that Xianggong occasionally has leisure? Ning'er would rather hold a book and ignore Xianggong. In Ning'er's heart, is Xianggong not as good as an idle book? "

Murong Zhining robbed the book and said: "unreasonable! As the ancients said, opening a book is beneficial. Reading and sharing the quiet and good years with the general, Ning'er feels very comfortable! "

Chiu Yun Yuexuan was dissatisfied and said, "where is your husband making trouble? Obviously, it is the lack of attention of women. Ning'er looks like reading a book carefully, and clearly throws her husband out of the cloud of nine nights. Anyway, when Ning'er is around Xianggong, Xianggong doesn't have the heart to do anything, so he wants to be bored with Ning'er! Isn't Ning'er tired of being married? Ning'er and Xianggong, there are still decades to go! "

Murong Zhining covers her mouth and laughs: "the general is really a laborious man. He can't spare any time! When you have a free time, you have nothing to do. "

Chiyun Yuexuan grabs Murong Zhining's hand: "where is Xianggong idle? Obviously, I just don't give up. Xianggong regards accompanying his wife as the most meaningful thing in his life. Xianggong doesn't disturb his wife. He is very satisfied to watch her quietly beside him! "

Shi Yong and Du Youtian hurriedly stepped into the courtyard of Jin's mansion. Shi Yong walked in front of them and shouted at the top of his voice: "general chiyun, we are back from Ji's mansion. What a big thing! "

Du Youtian grabs the tea from the mulberry tree and pours it down: "I'm so thirsty. Fortunately, general chiyun told us to stare at Wu Shi, otherwise, she might be in trouble. "

Shi Yonglian drank two cups of tea, told the story of Ji Fu, and then frowned: "I think today's accident is not so simple that Gu wants Wu's life."

Murong Zhining frowned with a pair of curved moth eyebrows: "general Shi said that when Wu was about to be knocked down by the fallen pillar, Gu pushed her away with all his might? It's a little strange! "

Du Youtian said: "I think Gu may not want to push Wu, but to knock her down so that the column can hit Wu accurately."

Chiyun Yuexuan shook his head doubtfully: "since Gu arranged such an accident carefully, how could she make it so obvious? Since she wanted Wu's life regardless of the consequences, she could use other methods. Why should she be so stupid that she started openly in front of the public? "

Murong Zhining's expression is solemn: "it seems that Wu Shi is not as harmless as her weak appearance! If the general thinks about it carefully, there will be many doubts. If Wu was afraid of Gu's harm, he could escape Yongning and find a place to live in seclusion. Why do you risk so much that you don't want to leave Yongning? So it seems that there must be something in Ji Fu that she would not give up at the risk of her life! "

Chiu Yun Yuexuan said: "if you are Ning'er, let me have a chill on my back. The fight between women is often fiercer than that between men. Go, Xianggong accompany his wife to explore the Gu family in Jifu. Maybe you can ask something different from her! "Murong Zhining complacently takes a piece of chiyun Yuexuan: "men and women have tough roles, but no one is more powerful than that. Besides, it's not reasonable for several women to share a husband. Isn't your man forcing women's ferocity? "

Chiyun Yuexuan quickly put on a smile: "you see, when it comes to women, they are not happy! Xianggong only said that other women were cruel, and never said that women. Besides, in her whole life, she will enjoy the love of her husband. Xianggong will never take a concubine back and add a block to Ning'er! "

In the courtyard of Jifu, there is still chaos. The servant respectfully welcomed chiyun Yuexuan and Murong Zhining into the courtyard: "chiyun general please, chiyun lady please! My wife was frightened, and her body was badly damaged. She was in a coma. I'm afraid that the general will continue to investigate the case. I haven't touched anything on the scene. I'm afraid that the evidence will be destroyed. "

Gu Manqing lay on the bed with a pale face and closed his eyes tightly. In her room, the furnishings are extremely simple. Compared with the luxurious styles of various places in the Ji mansion, it looks like the cold palace in the imperial palace.

Murong Zhining looks around Gu Manqing's bedroom curiously. The furniture in the bedroom is not as luxurious as other rooms, but the wooden tables and chairs of ordinary people are not even painted. There is a sacrificial table in the room, on which is a porcelain Avalokitesvara. There is a dandelion in front of the table. The red silk on the dandelion has been ground white. It can be seen that Gu Manqing is a very devout Buddhist.

Murong Zhining tentatively called to Gu Manqing: "Madame Ji, Madame Ji wake up." Gu Manqing's eyes are closed tightly. On her face, there are a bunch of blisters burned by the charcoal fire.

Zhao Xianggui, the steward of the Ji mansion, bowed: "tell me to scold Mrs. Yun. The doctor has just examined my wife's pulse. He said that her leg bone was broken by wood, her face was burned by charcoal fire, and she was frightened. Maybe it's hard to wake up again. The general goes to the hall to have a rest. If you have any questions, the villain will answer for his wife first. "

Zhao Xianggui let Murong Zhining and chiyun Yuexuan into the hall, ordered the serf to serve tea and put on fresh fruits and snacks: "madam, please have some tea, general please!"

Chiu Yun Yuexuan nodded: "I asked you a few questions, you must answer them truthfully."

Zhao Xianggui bowed: "yes, I dare not hide the general!"

"Chiyun Yuexuan asked:" Jifu up and down, is jifengyuan the master, or your Jima the master

Zhao Xianggui said: "my wife and master are married. In the early years, they had suffered together. Although the master has developed, he has been a favorite of his wife, and has the final say in his family. My master is a leisurely shake hands shopkeeper. "

Chiyun Yuexuan takes a look at Murong Zhining and continues to ask, "since your master is so nostalgic, why do you often marry a concubine? How many years have you been a steward in the house of Ji? "

Zhao Xianggui wrote a series and respectfully said: "the villain has been in Jifu for more than ten years. Both the master and his wife have great trust in the villain. The host took a concubine, but he didn't mean to ignore his wife. He He just wants to leave his blood. "

Chiyun Yuexuan asked, "no matter how your master and his wife feel, what's the conflict between your wife and his concubine Wu?"

Zhao Xianggui said: "the villain is just a servant. He dare not judge his husband's right or wrong. Let's talk about our views. My wife believes in Buddhism, and her character is relatively weak. But my host is very lecherous. In addition to about ten concubines, he often hangs out with women who are not good or bad. The little lady Wu, is the master who came back from the outside two years ago. Since she came to Jifu, the little lady has always been against her, depending on her master's love. To say the contradiction, it's just two women competing for favor. I can't think of any other contradiction. "

Murong Zhining asked, "your master, Ji Qie, is in groups. Why don't you have any children?"

Zhao Xianggui said: "my master did have some unspeakable causes a few years ago. He has not left any children. When the little lady came to the house, she actively extended the treatment to the master and found a prescription. Unexpectedly, she really cured the master's illness, and she also successfully conceived the child. Because of this, the master dotes on the little lady even more. The contradiction between the wife and the little lady is becoming more and more intense. The little lady once threatened to replace her one day. And the lady claims that the child in the little lady's stomach is not the owner's at all, but a wild species... "

Chiu Yun Yuexuan said, "chamberlain Zhao, what do you think of the death of your master?"

Zhao Xianggui wiped the sweat on his forehead: "back to chiyun general, I dare not speculate. It's a big deal after all. The villain dare not comment on his master's behavior. "

Chiu Yun Yuexuan taps the table: "I just want you to tell me the most true view in your heart, not to use your words as a confession. The master's right and wrong, you are the steward more clear than anyone. You don't need to cover up in front of our general. "

Zhao Xianggui's hands and feet trembled with fear: "will The general is calm. Villain doesn't want to hide it deliberately, but it's just a matter without evidence and evidence. Villain dare not say anything. There are not a few people who have been offended by the master's business for so many years, but the villain thinks that these people are not enough to kill the master. It's Wu's wife. She had a good friend before entering the mansion. The villain doubted that it would be the man who had a grudge against the master and waited for the chance to get rid of the black handChiyun Yuexuan takes a look at Murong Zhining, and both of them look puzzled.

Murong Zhining said with a kind face: "Mr. Zhao doesn't have to be too nervous. Chiding general Yun is just a routine question. As the steward of the Ji mansion, do you obey the master's orders or your wife's orders? Specifically, who do you help? "

Zhao Xianggui has the final say on his sleeve: "the little man has said that the size of the house is basically the lady's final say. However, the relationship between villain and master is also quite profound. "

Just then, a servant girl hurried to the hall and said, "master Butler, madam is awake and wants to see you."
