Enter Chang Xiangsi and help Jingzhai fight

Chapter 200 Conquer

I smiled and said, "So, there are no witnesses? Miss, think carefully, did you go to the small kitchen, or... to another yard?"

She trembled when she heard that, but still whispered: "Miss, yes, it's our yard..."

I winked at Tu Shanjing, walked over to her side, and looked around her.

She looked at me in panic and at a loss.

I then said, "Oh? Really? But how come the leaves of the Parashorea chinensis, which is unique to the eldest young master's yard, fell into your hair?"

She was startled when she heard it, and raised her hand to touch, but felt nothing.

But her action said it all.

Everyone looked at her. Her face turned from red to blue. She pointed at Xiao Wei beside her and said, "Young Master is innocent! She, she hasn't said anything yet!"

Xiao Wei raised her hand and took her wrist, rolled her eyes and said, "Xiao Hui and I went out of the house. Today is the girl's birthday, and we went to buy some new things. We were delayed by the rain on our way back, so we took shelter in the teahouse and will return when the rain stops. If you don't believe me, just ask the guards here to the guards at the gate, and then go out and ask at the teahouse."

Qian Mu bit her lip, pointed at me and said, "What about her! She didn't say anything either! Before Ruo Feng talked to him, she had no witnesses! Everyone here has talked about her, but there is no sign of her!"

I didn't expect her to make such a last-ditch effort. It was rare that I was stumped by her question.

Let's say that my witness is Tu Shan Jing. It's not even time for people to wash up before going to bed yet, and I'm in the dark in someone's room. I guess everyone has guessed what happened between him and me.

Let’s not talk about the fact that I have witnesses. Everyone is watching me, and I can’t just take advantage of the situation and enjoy the privilege of saying that I am a product exempt from inspection and don’t need to provide an alibi.

So I turned my gaze to Tu Shanjing, intending to ask him to block it for me.

Tu Shanjing received my gaze, coughed lightly, and said, "She worked for me. I can testify to that."

Qian Mu was now speechless and couldn't say anything.

I clapped my hands and said, "Everyone, go home and have a good rest. Miss Qian Mu, please come this way."

Ruiyang ran to Tu Shanjing very attentively and asked, "Young Master, do you want to prepare a board?"

Tu Shanjing glanced at him, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "No need! I don't have the addiction to beating with a stick!"

Qian Mu shuddered after hearing this, then resigned himself to following Tu Shanjing and me to his room.

Tu Shanjing sat down at the table outside, and I hurriedly handed the teapot to Ruofeng who was waiting at the door, and asked him to add some hot water.

Turning back, I heard Tu Shanjing say, "You tell me yourself. I'm too lazy to ask you one by one."

Qian Mu knelt down with a plop and cried, "Master, spare me! I came to you on the orders of the Madam. First, I saw that you were short of people and wanted to help take care of you. Second, -"

I walked over to Tu Shanjing and continued, "Second, you have to watch me to see if I'm using those seductive tricks again and circling around the young master all day long?"

Qian Mu nodded like pounding garlic: "Yes... a little, but after seeing that the young lady rarely came near the young master except for running errands, she was quite well behaved on weekdays, I, I also replied to the old lady in the same way. But today... I happened to see the young lady enter Ruofeng's room, and I was suspicious, so I leaned in to listen... I didn't expect to hear something shocking. Thinking that Miss Fangfeng was the second young master's wife chosen by the old lady, there must be some misunderstanding, so I took a shortcut to go to the eldest young master."

I said "Oh?" and said, "You are so proud of yourself. Can you come and go freely at the Young Master's place? Also, you are from this courtyard, but you go and tip off others?"

Qian Mu said tremblingly, "I didn't go in. It was... it was when Miss Fangfeng came to visit the mansion before, I was still serving the Madam, and I met Miss Xuanzhou. When she came this time, she asked me to imitate the three calls of a yellow oriole and inform her if there was anything."

I thought to myself, this is because he is guilty and knows he is about to do something bad, so he has arranged people in advance to help stand guard.

Tu Shanjing said angrily, "You work for me, but you actually tipped off an outsider? Isn't the previous example of Cheng Man enough?!"

Qian Mu prostrated herself on the ground and cried, "Young Master, please forgive me! I don't want to do this double-faced job, but I have no choice but to obey the old lady's order. I hope Young Master will show mercy!"

I sneered and said, "Yes, you are very smooth. You listen to the old lady's orders and try to win over the future second young master's wife. But you, your own young master, don't take it seriously at all."

Qian Mu was unable to utter any words to defend himself, and could only kneel down with tears and snot.

I asked again, "Let me ask you, was the wine sent by Miss Fangfeng her own idea or the Madam's? Where did the peach blossom cake come from?"

Qian Mu was stunned and asked, "What does Madam mean? I have never heard of it. What about wine and peach blossom cake? I really don't know."

I thought about it and guessed that the old lady did not participate in drugging this time, it was Fangfeng Yiying's own idea. Yes, her grandson did not break off the engagement and wanted to marry Wang Ji, so she would not use such a dirty trick to help Fangfeng Yiying.

Tu Shanjing looked at me, and I nodded to him to indicate that I had no more questions. Tu Shanjing understood, and lowered his head and said to Qian Mu: "Let's just forget about today's matter. You will make up for it in the future. If grandma asks about it, you can just answer the irrelevant questions. If grandma has any instructions, you must report to me or Lanxiang. And don't even think about colluding with outsiders in the future. If I find out again, I will beat you with a stick and send you back to grandma."

I also said, "Think about what happened to Cheng Man and Xin Wang. I'm not trying to scare you. The young master is protecting you by keeping you here. You can figure it out yourself!"

Qian Mu kowtowed repeatedly, saying, "Thank you, young master, for your mercy! Thank you, young lady, for your mercy! I will never do it again and will always be loyal to you!"

Tu Shanjing waved his hand and she tumbled back.

Ruofeng was standing not far from the door holding a teapot. When he saw the door open, he winked at me. I walked out to take it. He then seemed relieved, bowed, and went into the yard.

I knew he didn't dare get too close, for fear of accidentally hearing something he shouldn't, and he didn't dare leave holding the teapot. Now I could finally leave, and I would let him digest on his own what he heard and saw that night.

I walked into the room with the teapot and poured Tu Shanjing a cup of hot tea. Tu Shanjing took it and drank more than half of the cup. He said, "Even if we send her back to grandma, I'm afraid grandma will send someone again. And if she goes back, she may be attacked at any time like Chengman and Xinwang before."

I nodded, "Yes, sir, I have the same idea. Why not use her trick against you and let her be a double agent? This way, we can save ourselves the trouble of having to deal with her again and again."

He put down his teacup and said, "That's all I can find out today. I'll go and test Big Brother tomorrow."

I think Tushan Hou is under house arrest, so there is no need to worry. Besides, if Tushan Jing goes there, it may not have the same effect as my surprise attack in the afternoon. Tushan Hou is not stupid, and he must have prepared a lot of excuses to cover it up.

Thinking of this, I yawned. I had been so tense this afternoon that my lower body still felt swollen and painful from time to time. I could hardly hold on any longer.

Tu Shanjing saw this, stood up and walked to the door: "Ruofeng, bring a bucket of bath water."

He seemed to be getting ready to take a shower and go to bed, and I thought so, and decided to find a break to take a shower as well.

Ruofeng quickly brought the bath water. I closed the door and turned around to see that he had unbuttoned his shirt. His chest was snow-white, with only a faint red mark above his collarbone.

"Ah! Sir! How come you took off your clothes so quickly?!" I raised my hands to cover my eyes.

"Hmm?" There was a sound of water coming from his direction, and it sounded like he had already soaked in it.

"I'm sorry, I thought... you were used to it."

I peeked through my fingers and saw that he had indeed dipped into the water. Only then did I dare to take my hand away and said angrily from a distance, "How are you used to it? You never did that in front of me before..."

He looked up at me in the steamy water vapor, with a rosy face, and whispered, "I thought you had gotten used to it since this afternoon..."

My face flushed, I turned my back and said, "I'm not used to it!"

Suddenly, I felt a suction force from behind, and I was sucked to the edge of the bathtub with a light blue light in my eyes, and fell into his warm, wet hands.

He met my eyes, his eyes sparkling with water, seeming to be filled with endless tenderness, and also seeming to be quietly burning with flames.

"Then you should get used to it slowly."
