After hearing Lianyi's words, Lichun looked unnatural, and then said in surprise:
"Miss Hua, I really don't know."
Lianyi stroked the pattern on her cuffs and said with a smile:
"Lichun, wasn't it you who gave away my handkerchief?"
"I don't have any!"
Lichun immediately denied it.
"Song Jia doesn't have the ability to take the handkerchief without alerting me, but you and Xia Zhi are responsible for taking care of my daily life and can openly access my personal belongings.
Although I marked it in advance, it is normal for you to have marks on your hands. What you did is called being in the dark under the lamp. Everyone will automatically ignore you. Although you are in the most obvious position, you are the safest. "
Lichun stood with his hands behind his back, the expression on his face changed from pretended surprise at first to aggrieved later, he seemed afraid to refute Lianyi's words, while Xiazhi next to him was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.
"When I returned to Cuizhu Courtyard safely, you realized that Fifth Aunt's plot against me had failed, so you informed Hong Ling'er that you were also from Tianxia Diyilou."
Lian Yi said firmly.
"Miss Hua, you brought me into the inner courtyard. I am only responsible for serving you. I don't know anything else and I haven't done anything."
Lichun fell to his knees and denied it.
"It's okay. You can continue to deny it. Hong Ling'er will be caught sooner or later anyway. Think about how to excuse yourself first. Go down!"
Ripple waved her hand.
Lichun bowed in frustration, then turned around and hurried out, but Xiazhi was in a dilemma, not knowing whether to stay or leave.
"Sit with me for a while, and we'll wait for good news."
"Yes, Miss!"
No matter how dumb Xia Zhi was, he discovered that Miss Hua, whom he thought was the easiest to talk to and the easiest to serve, was the most powerful of the three ladies who entered the inner courtyard.
An hour and a half later, Lianyi waited for Wen Shirui.
Wen Shirui hurried into Zizhu Courtyard with a pale face and coughed twice. Lianyi immediately stood up and greeted him, frowning and saying:
"Brother Wen, are you injured?"
"No problem."
"I heard the bells. Did something happen in the castle?"
"Hong Ling'er broke into the restricted area in the back hills of Wen's Castle."
Wen Shirui did not hide it and said in a deep voice.
"The forbidden area in the back mountain? Is there any secret there? Since Hong Ling'er was exposed, why didn't she run away but instead deliberately ran to the forbidden area of Wenjiabao?"
"There is something inherited from my Wen Family Castle."
Wen Shirui glanced at Lianyi and replied.
"Did the family heirloom get stolen?"
"No, Hong Ling'er did not succeed."
Wen Shirui said calmly after sitting down.
“She’s been caught.”
Lianyi said this in the affirmative.
"Um!"
Wen Shirui nodded.
"That's good."
Lianyi curled her lips into a smile, poured a cup of tea for Wen Shirui and pushed it in front of him.
"Although the person has been captured, she said that you are also from the No. 1 Building in the World, and you are the most powerful hermit in the Hidden Building."
Lian Yi said indifferently after hearing this:
"Then let her produce evidence. This is not the first time I have been attacked since I entered Wen's Castle."
"My second brother is interrogating Hong Ling'er. Come with me and take a look!"
Wen Shirui said after taking a sip of tea.
"Okay, I'll go with you."
This time, Wen Shirui not only took Lianyi away, but also Lichun.
This time Lianyi revisited the old place and came to the dungeon again. The dungeon that had been damaged had been repaired, and Qinglan and Songjia were imprisoned there.
Hong Ling'er was tied to a black pillar. She had no external injuries on her body, but her breathing was a little disordered, and it was obvious that she had internal injuries.
Wen Shige and Wen Shixuan were both there. Lianyi bowed to them and then sat down next to Wen Shirui. After all, she was now his fiancée.
"Number Six, my mission has failed. I don't know if you can leave Wenjiabao alive."
Hong Linger raised her head, a hint of madness flashed in her eyes, and she said with a sneer on her lips.
Lian Yi just frowned, and then said slowly:
"Ms. Hong, you are about to die, why do you still insist on throwing dirty water on me? Do you think that Wenjiabao will swing the knife at me just because of your few specious words? You are too naive."
"Humph! You were watching from the dark while I was meeting Fifth Aunt."
Hong Linger said with a pale face.
"Someone poisoned me and left me a secret code. It's such an obvious frame-up. I naturally want to know who is behind it."
Ripple said calmly.
"you"
Hong Ling'er wanted to tear Lianyi apart, but every time she moved, the chains around her became even tighter.
Lian Yi was unmoved and turned to ask Wen Shirui:
"Brother Wen, can you tell me what you found out?"
Wen Shirui gestured to his second brother, and then Wen Shige spoke:
"The first person we captured, Song Jia, was Qing Lan's helper. This time, he entered Wenjia Fort to steal the treasures in the fort with the help of internal and external forces.
The first task Song Jia received was to frame Miss Hua. She stole Miss Hua's handkerchief through Lichun and gave it to Qing Lan after entering the inner courtyard.
When the time was right, Qing Lan used her aunt's identity to assassinate her father, and then left Miss Hua's handkerchief in her father's hands. Miss Hua should be able to guess what happened next."
Wen Shiguo spoke very briefly, but because everyone present was more or less involved, everyone roughly understood where things were going.
Lianyi lowered her eyes and thought for a while before she slowly spoke:
"If I'm not mistaken, Hong Ling'er started planning on the first day she entered the outer courtyard. Killing Miss Liu was only the first step. The purpose was to create chaos, lure out the three young masters, and pass on the news that she had entered Wenjiabao to Qing Lan in the inner courtyard.
Because of Miss Liu's death, Wenjia Castle will definitely investigate outsiders like us. To show respect, the three young masters invited the low-key Fifth Aunt in the inner courtyard. After all, Wenjia Castle has done her a favor, and she will definitely stand on the side of the three young masters.
But this also gave her the opportunity to meet Hong Ling'er, and the two met that night, avoiding the patrolling guards."
"Since Miss Hua knew that they had met, why didn't you tell my brother?"
Wen Shixuan interrupted and asked.
Lian Yi smiled and said after hearing this:
"Mr. Third Wen, the Fifth Aunt was the wife of the head of the Wen family at that time. You may not believe what I, an outsider, say. Besides, I don't have any evidence. The two of them can completely deny that they met in secret."
After hearing this, Wen Shixuan frowned, accepting Lianyi's explanation.
"Miss Hua, please continue."
"Not long after they met, the head of the Wen family was stabbed and fell into a coma, and because of a handkerchief, the suspicion was directed at me.
But they didn't expect that I would give away the Purple Yun Flower to prove my innocence. After Master Wen woke up, Qing Lan, the person who did it, would have nowhere to hide.
In order to divert everyone's attention and to protect the real mastermind, Hong Ling'er, she insisted that I was the one who ordered her to do all this, and she gave you sufficient reasons and so-called evidence."
My dears, Fengling had a severe backache today and was in a very irritable mood. I started writing after dinner. I will upload one picture first, and there will be a chapter later. Thank you all for your patience.
