Jiang Yuzhu transmigrated into a book, becoming Xie Zhao's early-deceased original wife. The story begins with a bang: the original owner is on her way to commit adultery, a scheme orchestrated...
The room fell into a strange silence.
Han Zhen lowered his eyes in thought, while Jiang Yuzhu sipped her tea peacefully. She raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "This is your last chance. Think it over before you speak."
Luohua and Weiyu looked at each other, and Weiyu spoke first, "The young lady did commit suicide by hanging. This is true. The coroner has verified it."
The Zhang family was unknown in the capital and had no grudges against anyone.
Zhang Wanyi has a gentle personality and a kind heart, and she has never made enemies with anyone.
"Before she committed suicide, the young lady had frequent nightmares. Something was very wrong."
At that time, Zhang Wanyi reached the age of marriage and was often taken by her wife to various flower viewing parties and poetry gatherings.
Because the Zhang family held low official positions, they were always invisible.
"Only Miss Wei takes good care of my young lady."
Luohua added that in fact, there were some things that the two of them had always suspected, but after the young lady committed suicide, they felt very guilty and were sold to a dark kiln.
It was as if there were a pair of hands controlling them, not giving them a chance to speak.
The two of them were confused and their speech was unclear.
Jiang Yuzhu took a sip of tea and said, "This lady is asking questions, and you answer them."
"Did Zhang Wanyi show any abnormal behavior before she committed suicide?"
Jiang Yuzhu signaled Han Zhen to take notes, and she used a question-and-answer format to restore the truth as quickly as possible.
Wei Yu nodded and said, "About seven or eight days ago, after attending a poetry gathering, the young lady returned to her room in great pain. She said her life was ruined and that if she married a playboy, she would be beaten to death."
Among them, Zhang Wanyi mentioned the second son of the Jiang family.
"I specifically asked the young lady at that time. I heard that the second young master Jiang wanted to discuss marriage, and Madam Jiang took a fancy to the young lady."
Luohua added.
"My cousin was at home at the time. She wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with my young lady, so she sent this servant out."
The cousin mentioned by the two maids was Ye Daya, who married Wei Jiazi after Zhang Wanyi's death.
"My cousin is our wife's niece. She grew up in the village, so she doesn't have a nice name."
Who would have thought that Ye Daya would have such good fortune.
Chunhua felt something was fishy: "After my cousin had a private chat with my daughter, she became very worried and often woke up from her dreams, saying she had nightmares."
In a trance, Zhang Wanyi talked about dreaming that Jiang Huaiqing beat her, and she was covered in blood and her skin was torn.
When Chunhua asked again, Zhang Wanyi refused to say anything.
"On the day the young lady hanged herself, she was distracted and knocked over the teacup. This servant, Weiyu, and I were sent away to get some clean clothes, and the result was..."
At that time, Ye Daya cried more miserably than anyone else and felt extremely guilty.
Everyone in the Zhang family was in grief, and no one blamed Ye Daya.
Later, Luohua Weiyu was sold and Ye Daya married into a wealthy family.
"The young lady came to see you that day to confirm whether Madam Jiang had already arranged a marriage for the second young master Jiang."
Luohua was very sure because it was she who accompanied the young lady to find Qiao Ying.
The two maids spoke intermittently and basically restored the truth.
Zhang Wanyi's suicide was related to her weak character, but it was also due to the instigation of the mastermind behind the scenes, who constantly hinted at the fate of Zhang Wanyi if she married into the Jiang family.
Jiang Yuzhu rubbed her brows and said to Han Zhen, "I really can't understand it. The Jiang family's reputation is not very good, but it shouldn't be ruined by my second brother alone!"
Maybe we can change it and discredit Jiang Huaida?
Not only that, Jiang Yuzhu was also the unlucky one who was dragged into the water.
Han Zhen: “…”
He is worthy of being the master he has chosen. His idea is different from others.
Jiang Yuzhu continued, "Wei Jing did it very secretly. She made plans in secret. After the plot was completed, she controlled the two maids who knew about it and fulfilled her promise to Ye Daya."
Wei Jing spared no effort to frame the Jiang family for the sake of her beloved Xie Zhao!
"Hongli, go to the government office and invite the master back."
Jiang Yuzhu hugged her arms, she regretted it.
Since Wei Jing is thinking of entering the mansion to be a concubine, Jiang Yuzhu should add fuel to the fire and deal with the trouble right under her nose.
The distance is so far that I have to run to the Wei Mansion just to slap someone.
Xie Zhao had just returned to the yamen after finishing his work when Liang An passed on the message: "Master, the mistress misses you and would like to invite you back to the mansion for a small gathering."
The corners of Hongli's eyes kept twitching. After Xie Zhao rode away, she asked, "Liang'an, can you pass on the message?"
Her wife clearly wanted to question the master and was suppressing her anger.
Liang An rolled his eyes in disdain: "Madam's goal is to get the master back home as soon as possible. You said you wanted to settle accounts with the master, but he must have hidden away!"
As a servant, you must be smart and flexible.
Liang An looked at Hong Li with disdain: "You and your brother should learn from this!"
Red Carp: “…”
She wanted to be clever, but she couldn't confuse right and wrong!
When Xie Zhao returned home and entered the reception room, he inexplicably sensed that the atmosphere was not right.
Jiang Yuzhu suppressed her anger and briefly explained the whole process.
Zhang Wanyi's two maids would add to the story from time to time, pointing directly at Wei Jing as the mastermind behind the scenes.
When Han Zhen saw Xie Zhao returning home, he took two maids and temporarily left.
The room was cleared, leaving only the couple.
Jiang Yuzhu was furious: "Wei Jing didn't kill Zhang Wanyi herself, but Miss Zhang died because of her!"
The facts are basically clear, except for Ye Daya as a witness.
Wei Jing has been repeatedly smearing the Jiang family since a few years ago, with good intentions.
Jiang Yuzhu also looked at Xie Zhao with disdain and said, "It's all because you're too romantic that you gave Wei Jing the wrong impression!"
Xie Zhao held down his wildly twitching eyelids. It was easy to find excuses to accuse someone of a crime. How did he become a playboy and amorous? It was so unfair!
Wei Jing has bad behavior, and a woman like her entering the house will bring disaster to the family.
Xie Zhao poured Jiang Yuzhu a cup of tea and took out a file of the Great Qi Law: "Madam, according to the Great Qi Law, it is indeed impossible to convict Wei Jing."
