They didn't understand why such an old lady would kill the protagonist who made the family prosperous, and even wanted to kill the eldest daughter despite being held accountable by the emperor.

Jiang Ning picked up the Buddhist beads, peeled them off, revealing the bloody string and said.

"This blood was left by the murderer when he killed the young lady. Even if it was wiped away in a hurry, the time was too short and no one noticed that the blood flowed onto the string."

"This doesn't prove that the old lady killed the person. Didn't Lin Mian say that her Buddhist beads were washed by the maid?"

Jiang Ning nodded, "It was taken out by the maid, but she didn't wash it, she bought it. This string of Buddhist beads is made of golden sandalwood and is very valuable. It could be worth a lot of money."

The guests looked at the Buddhist beads that the director had found as material, which were worth no more than ten yuan, and suppressed the upward curves of their lips.

Jiang Ning continued calmly, "This maid is Yu Lei. She is the eldest lady's personal maid and has the eldest lady's trust. When the other party is not on guard, it is easy for her to kill them with a weapon."

She said, waving the bloody knife.

At this time, Yu Lei, who was being watched by the guests, nodded and told her own hidden script.

"I was bribed by the old lady to kill the eldest lady because my brother had to pay a large sum of money for gambling, otherwise his hands would be chopped off. I had no choice but to harm the eldest lady for money."

"But I still don't know how the old lady could kill someone." Zhu Jixun said with a frown.

Yu Lei: "In my script, I wrote that the young lady was drugged by the old lady's maid before she saw me, and because of this, she stayed in the boudoir for a long time. I don't know if this has anything to do with it."

Everyone looked at Jiang Ning, hoping she would clarify their doubts.

"Let's go to the eldest lady's room to look for clues." Jiang Ning felt that detective variety shows had to be participated in to have an interesting feel. What fun would it be if they just used the melon-eating system to eat the melons.

The guests came to the eldest lady's boudoir and searched again. Finally, Lin Mian, who had recently been interested in ancient costume political intrigue dramas and had watched a lot of such films, found a secret compartment under the cabinet.

After everyone opened it together, they saw two letters hidden in the secret compartment.

One is a love letter written by the servant played by Qi Tao, and the other is a letter from the eldest lady saying that the child has been aborted by someone arranged by the old lady. She has lost both her lover and her child, and is heartbroken.

In ancient times, people valued a woman’s chastity, so this speculation is very likely.

Jiang Ning took out a jade ring from the bottom layer of the secret compartment, which was the same as Chen Lin's.

"It seems that there is more than that. The eldest lady seems to have a relationship with Eunuch Chen as well."

Everyone looked at Chen Lin, and Chen Lin began to talk about the script in an irritable manner.

"Before my character entered the palace, I forced the eldest daughter. After I came back this time, I forced her again. I accidentally dropped a jade ring. The other jade ring was not taken away. I used it to bribe someone to take action against the eldest daughter. I hid these things forever and planned to let the second daughter enter the palace, but the old lady got there first."

After hearing these words, everyone sorted out the whole story and felt miserable. In the end, the only person who was killed was a young lady.

"Feudal thinking and the so-called family honor are killing people," Zhu Jixun lamented.

Meng Ying was a carefree person. She was not too sad because of the sad story of the eldest lady she played. She was still curious about one thing.

"Is there any connection between the eldest lady's death and the subsequent deaths of people in the house?"

"Maybe it's a story about a wronged ghost seeking revenge?" Yu Lei, who loves watching foreign ghost movies, guessed.

The script has been completed, but this doubt has not been revealed. The guests looked at the director and asked him to explain.

The director touched his head and said with a bitter face, "The story ends here. I don't know."

Everyone still looked unconvinced. Some thought that the next script would be kept for later recording and might not be convenient to disclose, so they didn't ask any more questions.

I want to finish it now. The updates may be unstable recently. I want to finish the quick-pass next door and then start a new article.
