The princess is a flirt, and the prince loves her dearly
Chapter 52: Abandon
When they talked about the crucial piece of evidence - the clothes, which were found under the bed and in the hole under the floor in Nanny Xun's room, many people present could not help but exclaim in amazement and sigh.
He is really good at hiding. If it were them, they would never be able to find him no matter how hard they tried.
After careful comparison by the coroner, it was confirmed that the silk thread found was exactly the same as the clothes found.
"You bold and wicked woman! Tell me the truth about how you killed Guo Qihe!"
Zhou Tiemian slammed the gavel, and Nanny Xun in the hall trembled like a sieve.
Nanny Xun, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, couldn't believe it. How could the evidence be conclusive?
She obviously didn't do anything?
Not to mention hiding clothes?
This……
"Your Excellency, I, this old servant, ..."
"Madame Xun!"
The sound of a weak voice made everyone turn around and look. They saw Li being supported by someone as she walked up the stairs and into the hall.
"Madam, I really didn't do this. Please save me, Madam. I..."
Seeing hope, Nanny Xun hurriedly crawled towards Li and grabbed the corner of her clothes, hoping that Li could save her.
Li stared at her with a sad look in her eyes and said in disbelief: "Madam Xun, I trusted you so much and wanted to let you go free, but I never thought that you would murder others for your own selfish desires.
It's my fault. I didn't notice your thoughts the first time..."
Madam Xun stared at the heartbroken Li, stunned again and again, "Madam, what are you talking about? It's obviously..."
Li's tightly grasped cane suddenly fell to the ground with a loud thud, "That's enough! Madam Xun, I have brought you the indenture contract you wanted. From now on! You are no longer a servant of the Marquis' Mansion. You are free!"
Mrs. Li shed tears in pain, and Nanny Xun's face was full of disbelief.
She saw the word "abandonment" in Li's eyes.
She was no longer a slave, but she still had a nephew, her only nephew...
Whether the Xun family's only root can survive in peace depends on her decision.
Nanny Xun smiled bitterly and closed her eyes.
……
In the end, Nanny Xun confessed her guilt, and when she recounted what happened, she described how she had escaped from slavery and how she hoped Guo Qihe would help her, all of which were just as Zhang Hao had said.
The only difference was that she had never seen Guo Qihe again since that time she had examined Jiang Wan.
But she didn't say anything. She only said that during the argument as Zhang Hao said, she accidentally hurt Guo Qihe.
When asked where Guo Qihe's lost arm was, she looked at Li with eyes full of endless meaning and said a place.
That was the place where Li had buried her arm after being frightened a few days ago, but it became the final evidence to convict her.
When she saw the arm, she recognized it at a glance. Guo Qihe's hand was different from that of ordinary people, and his little finger was deformed.
Li's old eyes were filled with tears, and she kept saying that they had been master and servant for many years, and if she had anything, she could just tell her directly. But how could she not be willing to do such a small thing as escaping from slavery?
Why did it come to this...
She ignored her...
Madam Xun stood up tremblingly, with no respect between master and servant in her eyes. She laughed bitterly: "Don't worry, old lady, I didn't say anything. I'll leave first..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Nanny Xun rushed to the corner of the table, blood splattered on Li's face, and she screamed "Ah" in horror.
Li was frightened and fainted.
Nanny Xun's sudden suicide attempt shocked everyone.
The murderer has confessed his crime and has been brought to justice. There is no need to continue with this case.
The gavel rang and the word "adjourn" was uttered, and the unconscious Li was carried away amid the pointing and gesticulations of the crowd.
Zhang Hao kowtowed to thank Zhou Tiemian, then left sadly with Guo Qihe's body.
The people who came to watch the fun left in twos and threes.
At the same time, Wen Gong, dressed in casual clothes, walked out of Qianying Pavilion, folded the paper in his hand, and put it carefully in his arms, with an extremely happy expression on his face, and then walked towards the direction of Prince Chen's Palace.
In Prince Xuanyang's Palace, Ye Fan looked at the lotus flowers blooming in the pond, wondering what he was thinking.
"master."
"how?"
"It is indeed the subordinate of King Chen. According to my guess, King Chen seems to have reached some kind of deal with Qianying Pavilion."
Ye Fan tilted his head, "Have you found out about Ye Yue's matter?"
Kangtai suddenly knelt down and said, "I am incompetent, please punish me, Master."
"How is the Marquis' Mansion? Are you sure it was the maidservant beside Li who brought this upon herself?"
"Yes, according to my investigation, the nanny next to Li was indeed having an affair with Guo Qihe. Someone heard them arguing before Guo Qihe disappeared."
"How about the medicine?"
"Master, rest assured. I have handled it properly. No one will find out."
"Well, send someone to keep an eye on Xiao Beichen and Jiang Minghe's daughter."
"May I ask if the master will continue..."
"Biding the moment."
"My subordinate understands."
After finishing the report, Kang Tai was about to leave to do some work when he heard someone say, "Make arrangements. This prince wants to see Xiao Yunting."
