Chapter 65: None of them are murderers

Xiao Yi's words woke up the dreamer.

Mrs. Zhao and Mr. Wei were still making noise in the house, but Lin Xing walked straight towards Zhou Yan, leaned over and whispered in his ear: "Ms. Wei and Mrs. Zhao have never touched poison at all. Those who have really touched poison,

She was the maid she brought to the Lin Mansion that day."

Zhou Yan stiffened at first, then paused when he saw Lin Xing's serious look. Then he nodded, called Zhang Ping, and followed Lin Xing's instructions.

What they had done had already alerted the enemy, and Lin Xing was worried about whether Zhang Ping could find any clues during this trip.

When he frowned, he suddenly heard Zhou Yan say in a serious voice: "My reputation rests on you. If I really don't have an explanation today, I won't be able to stay in Yuzhou City anymore."

Lin Xing saw that Zhou Yan was teasing her, so she crossed her arms and said, "How about you stand up now and do justice to Mrs. Zhao and the Wei family, so that you can do your best to restore your image in the eyes of the people."

Hearing this, Zhou Yan stood up.

Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Wei had been looking this way just now. Now that they saw Zhou Yan standing up, they thought that Zhou Yan could not bear his temper and finally bowed to them. The expressions on their faces were filled with unbearable joy.

However, Zhou Yan just tapped Zhao Jie's forehead and asked: "I suddenly remembered that you didn't seem to ask me to review your homework last night, but were you lazy?"

Zhou Yan's words shocked everyone. Not only Zhao and Wei were dumbfounded, but even Zhao Jie also opened his eyes wide.

He quickly came to his senses and said respectfully: "I was delayed yesterday due to some chores. It's my fault, but I'm not lazy. If master doesn't believe me, you can ask me a question."

Zhou Yan chuckled: "It's natural to believe, but you also have to ask questions."

After saying that, the two of them started reviewing their homework in the room as if no one else was around.

Old Mrs. Zhao and Mr. Wei cried for a long time, and no one paid any attention to them except for the occasional chime in from the doctor they forcibly brought here. After all, he was also elderly and had been a prominent figure in Yuzhou City before.

After struggling for a quarter of an hour, Mr. Zhao also felt that he couldn't keep his face, and their voices gradually became weaker.

At this moment, Zhou Yan nodded with satisfaction: "You have a bright mind, remember to have some ink in your stomach, otherwise you will just cry and cry when something happens, and you won't be able to tell the slightest truth, and you will only make people laugh."

When the two of them heard these words of criticizing Sang and Huai, they felt even more uncomfortable.

If they continue to cry, it will appear that they can't tell the difference between good and bad words. If they stop crying, it will be more like they are on the same page.

Zhao Jie nodded obediently, and his eyes drifted to the two of them: "Why don't you cry anymore? Without the wolf howling to cheer you up, how boring would it be to practice? Now that you are in such a miserable state... Otherwise, I will give you a gift every day

For a tael of silver, you can just cry in my courtyard for half an hour and cheer me up."

Lin Xing burst out laughing. When she saw Mrs. Zhao looking over with a sad look, she covered her lips again, waved her hands and said, "You go on, you don't need to worry about me."

I've never seen anything so insulting!

Old Mrs. Zhao was trembling all over, and even Mrs. Wei on the side looked unhappy.

She spoke first: "We have soaked the lime water just now, and people have come, but now we just want justice, which is wrong, right?"

If she had known that Lin Xing and Zhao Jie were so difficult to deal with and disrespectful of etiquette, she would not have come in person no matter what.

Wei felt regretful in her heart, but she still said stubbornly: "Who is it that can't make any sense? Isn't it the style of your Lin family to go back on your word?"

Many figures suddenly appeared outside.

Lin Xing raised her eyes and looked around. She felt confident in her heart instantly. She cleared her throat and said, "Mrs. Zhao, please don't be dim-sighted. The apology I made was after confirming that you were not poisoned. Everyone who came to the Lin Mansion yesterday also returned the apology."

If everyone is not here, how can I be considered as reneging on my word?"

Lin Xing clapped her hands and followed the Wei family's maids yesterday into the outer room.

There were so many people that Lin Guoer's bedroom seemed a bit crowded.

"This slave has met His Highness the Crown Prince."

These maids already knew the whole story when Zhang Ping brought Mr. Zhao and Mrs. Wei. They had never seen such a big scene before, and their voices were trembling. Zhou Yan just left them alone for a while.

A few of the timid ones were already scared to tears.

Zhou Yan's sharp eyes swept over several people, and then he slowly said: "Get up."

"I called you here today because of Lin Guo'er's matter. Now that the matter is suspected on your heads, I just need to pass my hands through the lime water." Lin Xing pursed her lips, and the lime water was brought to her.

In front of several people.

These maids don't know why the lime water is used.

Seeing the red and swollen eyes of Mrs. Zhao and Mr. Wei, they all felt timid in their hearts and backed away, not daring to step forward.

"I didn't expect that the maids in Mr. Zhao's house also like to procrastinate like Mr. Zhao." Zhou Yan's smile did not reach his eyes. He raised his folding fan, and the guard beside him lit a stick of incense and stood in the incense burner.

By now, my prince's patience is about to run out, so I only give you a moment to burn incense."

A stick of incense is neither long nor short.

Several maids each had their own secrets, trying to figure out what Zhou Yan meant, while at the same time carefully recalling the efficacy of lime water in their hearts.

Why haven't they heard that lime water can be tested for poison?

After thinking about it, Xiang He took a step forward and soaked his palms in the lime water for a long time.

With Xianghe taking the lead, several people gathered behind her. Seeing that she didn't show any abnormality, they became bolder and put their hands in the basin.

In just half a stick of incense, the hands of several maids were already wet.

Lin Xing looked over one by one, then walked back backwards. She looked at it several times, and she couldn't believe her eyes - none of these people's hands had changed color!

Lin Xing was completely confused.

Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Wei seemed to have expected it. They tapped their canes on the ground three times: "Lin Xing, you are young and frivolous and you are slanderous. I didn't want to argue with you and other juniors, but you pressed forward step by step. Now my wife, I and the maids in the mansion are all

It has passed the test, so you should give me an accurate time to apologize."

Wei Shi imitated Zhao Jie's behavior just now, her tone was sharp, and she said yin and yang: "You don't want to deny it, do you? The prince also listened to what you said, and it was the prince's guarantee for you. It's not a big deal for you to break your promise.

, don’t miss the crown prince.”

Damn it, Zhou Yan was brought out again to pressure Lin Xing!

Zhao Jie clenched his fist: "Who doesn't know that you are eyeing the Que Ling Seal Letter? Lin Guoer fell ill that night after we came here just yesterday! After learning about Wu Ye Hua, he proposed to exchange the Que Ling Seal Letter. He was really a stranger to Sima Zhao's heart.
