Chapter 315 Where

He has always been very confident in the ability of the servant beside him to do things. Seeing that he had not returned yet, he couldn't help but start to think that those servants in the mansion who had committed crimes could usually be found out with a simple check. Since they have not been found yet, it can only be said that those servants have been taken away or something.

Since they failed to wait for those servants, they can only place their hopes for clues on other people.

There were too many people, so it was not easy to find them. Besides, almost all the people here had been personally interrogated by people from the Dali Temple or Ye Laogong's people.

Like now, reconvening, obviously intends to re-interrogate again, or a one-time, so the time needed here can be imagined. However, Gu Junqing and the Dali Temple Shaoqing and others did not want to waste too much time here.

Hence the current scene.

Public trial.

That is to say, when Gu Junqing and the others asked, the servants and maids here answered one by one, and they could not be hesitant or dragged out in the process of answering.

This was the first time that Duke Ye had seen such an interrogation method. He looked at Gu Junqing's actions with curiosity, showing a look of novelty on his face.

The other two had never seen it before, so the first question was naturally asked by Gu Junqing.

"Do you know Harukyo?"

This was the first question Gu Junqing asked.

The three of them looked at each other, and then continued to focus their attention on Gu Junqing and the maids and servants, their eyes were very focused. Everyone in the Duke's Mansion knew who Chun Xing was, after all, she was a popular person serving Old Madam Ye. So the servants and servants who heard these questions nodded in unison and said they knew her.

They didn't understand why Gu Junqing asked such a knowing question, so they just lowered their heads and waited for the next question.

They lowered their heads, making it inconvenient for Gu Junqing to observe their expressions, so she came down in person and walked around the group of people. This made it easier for her to observe their expressions up close. What if she found a flaw? She never missed any possibility, even if it was just the slightest.

After walking around these people, Gu Junqing retracted his gaze, walked back to his original position, nodded to the three people who had been looking at him, and then looked in a certain direction, and no one knew what he was looking at.

However, the three of Ye Laoguo inexplicably understood why Gu Junqing was imitating porcelain.

So the next questions were asked by the three of Ye Laoguo. They asked questions one by one, and then, like Gu Junqing, they looked at the expressions on the faces of the servants and maids.

After the three of them finished asking questions, he subconsciously turned his gaze to Gu Junqing, after all, it was her turn to ask questions.

At the same time, they were thinking in their hearts that when they were asking questions earlier, several servants began to reveal their true colors. It was like when one servant said something, the other one's facial expression changed when listening to him, and it looked like something was obviously fishy. So Ye Laoguogong and others remembered these people and planned to specifically ask these people questions when they asked questions later.

If they could think so, Gu Junqing could naturally think so too. So she walked forward a dozen steps and stood in front of a servant. There was almost no expression on her face, but there was a hint of coldness in her eyes. When she stared at people straight, it would give people the illusion that she would be killed by the person in front of her with a knife.

Anyway, the servant who was unfortunately targeted by Gu Junqing was trembling all over under the gaze of Gu Junqing, and he almost knelt down in front of her.

But Gu Junqing didn't let him kneel, but asked him to stand upright and look up at her.

There was more cold sweat on the servant's face. The temperature was obviously very hot, but the servant only felt that the weather was so cold that he was shivering all over and had difficulty breathing.

Then he heard Gu Junqing's question, "Who was the one who punished you to be locked up in the woodshed with Chun Xing?"

When the servant heard this, his whole body trembled. His legs, which were originally supporting his limbs, trembled, and he fell to his knees on the ground as if he could not bear the weight. Then he began to tremble uncontrollably, looking extremely scared.

Gu Junqing looked at the man's behavior. He was still guessing and doubting, but now he was completely calm. So he didn't care how scared the man was. He just squatted down. He seemed to have a very gentle attitude and his tone was as gentle as a warm breeze. Gu Junqing moved a little closer to the servant, opened his mouth and softly repeated the question he had just asked.

When the servant heard Gu Junqing ask the question again, he raised his eyes accidentally and saw that Gu Junqing's clear and cold eyes were blocked by the shadows of the people around her, making her eyes dark and deep. Her deep and calm eyes stared straight at him, as if this one glance could see into the deepest part of a person's heart, and her eyes were bright, as if telling him that she had seen through him.

The servant was startled by Gu Junqing's look, and then after weighing the pros and cons, he raised his head again and wanted to look at Gu Junqing. After all, the servant always remembered what Gu Junqing said before, that he should look up at her when speaking.

So he tried hard to suppress the fear in his heart and looked at Gu Junqing with forced calmness. Apart from the flicker in his eyes, he looked sincere.

Gu Junqing raised his eyebrows, and his eyes couldn't help but show a hint of interest.

He managed to remain calm, but the moment he opened his mouth, his composure was broken. He stammered, "The master is Second Master Ye. At that time, I and others accidentally made Second Master Ye angry, so he locked us up in the woodshed to reflect on our mistakes..."

Reflection? Master Ye Er?

Gu Junqing took note of this, then raised his head and continued to stare into the little servant's eyes and asked again, "Then do you know why Chun Xing was in the firewood room with you to reflect on her sins? What did she do wrong?"

After Gu Junqing finished speaking, the servant's eyes flickered even more. It was unknown whether he was afraid or something else, but he kept avoiding Gu Junqing's gaze.

But he still answered honestly: "Miss Chun Xing accidentally dropped the teacup on the ground when she was serving tea to Master Ye Er. The tea was hot and the spilled tea was scalding Master Ye Er. Master Ye Er was angry, and we happened to have made him angry too, so he locked Miss Chun Xing in the woodshed with us."

Gu Junqing asked, "Did you see it with your own eyes?" The servant replied affirmatively, "I saw it with my own eyes."

Gu Junqing chuckled with an ambiguous tone, and then asked him again: "Where are the other servants?"
