Chapter 642
Yinzhu said hurriedly, "I heard it was a man called Uncle Zhang who asked me to put medicine in the water and give it to the bride. He gave me five hundred, five hundred taels of silver! I shouldn't be greedy! Miss, please save me! I don't know what medicine it is! But my stomach hurts so much now, I don't want to die, I really don't want to die..."
Shi Anxia didn't even raise her eyebrows, she just asked, "Who is Uncle Zhang?"
"Zhang, Uncle Zhang is the one who sold slaves into the Marquis's mansion. He is a human trafficker." Yinzhu was very panicked when she saw the girl's extreme indifference.
I had no choice but to continue explaining, "He is a human trafficker who often sells maids to the powerful families in the capital. The last time I saw him, he was selling someone to the Marquis's mansion. He found me and said he wanted to find me a job that could make money."
Shi Anxia finally raised her head and looked at Yinzhu, "Which hospital are you on duty in?"
"I was on duty in the laundry room." Yinzhu cried, "I washed clothes diligently every day, and I don't know why I just... lost my mind..."
Shi Anxia ordered, "Bei Hui, go find Manager Huo and get Yin Zhu's indenture to take a look."
Yinzhu was relieved when she heard about the exchange of indentures, because Uncle Zhang had told her that even if something went wrong and the Marquis's Mansion sold her out, he would be able to buy her back.
But the next moment, the girl said, "Give her the remaining half cup of water."
Yinzhu shook her head in horror, "I've said everything! I... just wanted money, and didn't want to harm the master's family..."
This time Dong Xi didn't let her struggle. He poured the cup of water directly into Yinzhu's mouth and didn't let her spit out even a drop.
Shi Anxia said, "I don't know what that is either. Anyway, you have done something wrong, so you should bear the consequences yourself."
Yinzhu's face turned pale and she held her throat tightly, trying to spit out the water she had drunk.
Shi Anxia looked at her coldly and waited for a stick of incense. Seeing that she was not dead yet, he knew that this was a chronic poison and would not cause sudden death but would only slowly deplete the body.
She sneered, "Do you think this is the end? Bei Hui, drag her to the deserted yard and beat her with a stick, just don't beat her to death!"
Yinzhu begged, "Miss, please spare my life! Miss, please spare my life! I won't dare to do it again! I won't dare to be greedy for money again."
Shi Anxia was so disgusted that she didn't want to look at her again.
Bei Hui couldn't help but kicked him, "Do you know why I won't kill you? Today is our prince's wedding day, and I don't want to be unlucky. You'd better hold on, and hold on until dawn!"
When Yinzhu was dragged away by several people, a cloth strip was stuffed in his mouth and he could not make any sound.
It is not appropriate to see blood on this day.
Shi Anxia originally thought that some people had been trying to persuade Lord Wei to cancel the engagement.
Although Princess Chanyu is dead and Princess Fengyang is no longer in the capital, there may still be a few people with ulterior motives.
Unexpectedly, there really are!
Manager Huo hurriedly brought in the indenture, and after hearing the whole story, he knelt down and begged for mercy.
He was the one who rescued the person from the human trafficker, so he is also responsible if anything goes wrong.
He cried, "When I buy people, I am always very careful. I check them carefully and only use those with clean backgrounds in my house. But, but..."
But something happened after all, and it happened on the day of the Crown Prince's wedding.
He cannot absolve himself of the blame.
Manager Huo knelt on the ground and kowtowed for mercy.
Shi Anxia ignored him and checked Yinzhu's indenture, the time she entered the mansion, and the recent records of her entering and leaving the palace.
Since her rebirth, the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion has changed several times, and personnel transfers in the Marquis' Mansion have been frequent.
In addition, there were few useful sons in the Marquis's mansion, so they bought a large number of new ones.
Even though she was strict in her supervision and investigation, there were still some who slipped through the net. Even Dong Xi, who was beside her, was attracted by the beauty of men. It was really... hard to describe.
Shi Anxia could see that Yinzhu was just an ordinary maid, without any special skills or complicated background.
Because of this, it is difficult to check.
