Chapter 45 Let the Big Rooster Find the Real Murderer
Is there really a way to do this?
Xie Qingrou said:
"Find him, I must find him! Mother also wants to find out who it was that didn't want my son to have a successful wedding. Whoever wanted my son to die, I will make sure he dies without a complete body."
The big and small Zhus were so embarrassed, how could this new daughter-in-law be so good at acting? Wasn't she an unfavored concubine?
The Marquis was still digesting what Gu Ruoxi said, about the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion saying that it was Gu Ruoxi who changed the bridal sedan. Well, this matter needs to be investigated. It could clearly be a legitimate daughter who married in, so why did they send such a not very sensible concubine's daughter.
Then he heard Xie Qingrou say that she would find out who had prevented the wedding and settle accounts with them. He was shocked.
He's not stupid.
He didn't care about this mansion before, but what happened in the past two days has made him wake up a lot.
Xuan'er couldn't take the place of the bridegroom, and then something happened to the chicken. It's obvious who benefits from all this.
But now in his opinion, Yu Er didn't die, and the wedding was successful, so the result was very good. The only bad thing was that the bride who was holding the wedding was not from a good family.
Now that he heard that Gu Ruoxi was able to find out who used the needle, he felt a little panicked.
As a marquis, he doesn't want things in the mansion to get bigger and bigger. The current result is good, and that's enough.
However, if she doesn't find out, Xie Qingrou won't be able to explain. Now that her son has proposed to investigate the matter, she must have an explanation.
Nangong Su glanced at Xiao Zhu and saw that she seemed calm on the surface. It seemed that she had dealt with some things.
Yu'er was very dissatisfied with him for arranging a wedding for his son. Besides, he couldn't offend Xie Qingrou too much. He heard that his elder brother-in-law would come to the capital recently and was invited by the emperor.
Therefore, I still have to save some face.
"Let's check who moved the chicken."
Once the Marquis spoke, the matter began to be investigated.
But how to check? First of all, the Marquis's wife asked Madam Yang to prepare the chicken, so the little girl who was in charge of the chicken must be responsible.
The old marquis's wife had no choice but to agree to the investigation, not only to show that she had nothing to do with the matter, but also to save some face in front of Nangong Yu.
Aunt Yang:
"My Lords, I bought the chicken myself and brought it back. It was then kept in the woodshed to the left of the kitchen and the back room. It was fed by Huo'er, a little girl in the dining hall, every day."
"On the morning of the wedding day, the old servant personally went to carry out the chicken. It was good, and then placed it in a small wing room between the right corridor of Jing'an Hall and Wutong Courtyard. It was handed over to Wu'er, the little maid in Wutong Courtyard at that time, to look after it."
Nanny Yang replied:
"When I brought the chicken over, I met the third elder of the tribe. He also saw that I was carrying a living chicken."
The witness has been found, and he is the third elder.
Of course, no one would really go to the Third Elder to ask.
When Wu'er was called, he was shaking with fear.
Kneeling in the middle of the hall, she cried and said:
"I didn't kill the rooster. After Nanny Yang gave it to me, I didn't dare to feed it because I was afraid of feeding it incorrectly."
"However, when it was time for breakfast, Xiangchun, the little maid in the old lady's yard, came to look for me. At that time... at that time, I was in a hurry to go to the toilet, so I asked her to watch for a while, and then I went to the toilet."
At this point, she looked up and said:
"I was only away for a short while and will be back soon."
Xie Qingrou asked:
"So when you came back, did you check if the chicken was good?"
Wu Er was stunned for a moment, then thought about it and cried:
"I didn't see it, but I heard the roosters clucking inside. I didn't dare to open the door for fear that the roosters would run away."
That is to say, when she came back, the chicken was still alive.
Xiangchun was called over, and his words matched Wuer's, but no one could prove that Xiangchun was alone there at the time.
Xiangchun couldn't find any evidence and was extremely anxious. He kowtowed repeatedly until his forehead was bleeding.
Gu Ruoxi, who was standing aside, felt a little sorry.
She actually knew that it was not this person, but she was not familiar with the people in this mansion and could not remember anyone's name.
Gu Ruoxi sighed and said:
"Why bother asking one by one? Call all the servants and let the big rooster look for it. It will naturally recognize who is trying to stab it to death."
Everyone: ...Uh...Are you serious?
Everyone looked at Gu Ruoxi with a bit of strangeness in their eyes.
Nangong Yu looked at this girl and wondered if there was something wrong with her brain. If he asked a chicken to find it, would the chicken be able to recognize it?
Unexpectedly, Xiao Zhu agreed with this proposal.
She agreed, but in fact, it was because she thought it was just a joke. How could a chicken possibly find out who harmed it?
You want to use a chicken to find it, which shows how stupid you are. I will satisfy your stupid idea.
She thought so and called everyone over with great fanfare.
Gu Ruoxi felt that Nangong Yu and Xie Qingrou were somewhat unconvinced but had to stand by her side. She just smiled and glanced at the Qingyi standing behind Nangong Yu and said:
"Can I ask Qing Yi to do something?"
Qingyi's legs went weak when she heard this: "Young Madam, if you have anything to say, just give me instructions. You don't even need the prince's consent. I still remember the ten strokes of the cane."
Nangong Yu also glanced at Qingyi from the side, and was so stunned that Qingyi almost fell to his knees.
"My subordinate is here."
"Follow the young lady's orders."
"Yes!"
Gu Ruoxi smiled happily, and if you looked carefully, you could see a calculation in her innocent smile: You little bastard, you almost made me lose face, wait and see how I'm going to deal with you in the future.
I thought so in my heart, but I said with a smile on my face:
"Qingyi, go to our yard and bring the rooster over here. Be careful not to hurt it. It has been stabbed by someone and it looks very pitiful."
Qingyi: ...Young Madam, I am the one who is pitiful now!
"Yes."
Qingyi turned around and left Jing'an Hall.
Xiao Zhu's mouth corners curled up slightly, I want to see how a chicken like you can find the murderer.
Because of the order sent by Xiao Zhu, the maids and servants in the inner house all went to the courtyard outside Jing'an Hall.
Fortunately, the yard was quite large and all the servants could fit in.
But even so, Gu Ruoxi was still surprised.
I didn't expect a marquis's mansion to have so many servants, and these are only the women, and only those in the backyard. Those in the front yard are not counted.
Think about my mother’s yard, where there are only a few people brought by Yinggu.
Xie Qingrou didn't expect that he would use such a childish method to find it. She glanced at her son and was surprised that he was so calm.
Nangong Jiao spoke up:
"How funny! A chicken can find the person who hurt itself? If I tell others about this, they will probably laugh their heads off. I never thought that the wife of the Crown Prince newly married to our Changyong Marquis's Mansion is actually a fool."
It’s not clear whether it was stupid or not, but when Qingyi brought the chicken over, Gu Ruoxi hurriedly asked him to put the chicken down.
This chicken was quite recognizable. As soon as it was put down, it walked straight to Gu Ruoxi and squatted down.
Yes, he squatted down, and everyone was a little dumbfounded.
Even Xiao Zhu was a little nervous. Could this chicken really recognize people?
