Tong'er raised her head suspiciously, and a hint of fear gradually appeared in her eyes when she looked at Ni Yueshan.
Ni Yueshan was too calm and too wise. Under her gaze, even if she tried her best to defend herself, it seemed as if Ni Yueshan could still see through everything. She became a transparent person who could not hide any secrets...
"I might as well tell you that the prince went out and followed you, but it's been so long since you came back, and the prince still hasn't returned. What happened in the meantime?"
Tong'er's face turned pale in an instant, and then she fell to the ground weakly.
Bian Shan urged anxiously: "Hurry up and tell me! I have already admitted my crime, what are you still hiding from me?"
Finally, Tong'er sighed: "Since the Crown Princess is capable and has guessed most of it, and the Crown Prince has also been following me, then let the Crown Prince decipher it himself after he returns. I still can't tell you now!"
Her stubbornness surprised Ni Yueshan. Why was she so stubborn?
Fortunately, new hot tea was poured, and Jing Yuchen came back soon.
But when he came back, he brought someone with him...
Bian Shan looked at the person Jing Yuchen brought with surprise: "Brother?"
Bian Shan just called out softly, and Ni Yueshan instantly understood what was going on.
"I see."
Jing Yuchen looked at Tong'er kneeling on the ground and said, "I'm not back too late, am I?"
"It was pretty quick, just three cups of tea..."
Jing Yuchen: “…”
Jing Yuchen let go of the person he brought over. The person's legs had become weak and he knelt down on the ground.
Tong'er quickly opened her mouth and said to him: "Slave, slave didn't say it, slave is still keeping her mouth shut!"
But the other party obviously didn't have the mood or courage to respond to Tong'er!
Ni Yueshan joked: "As a master, he is not as brave as you."
Tong'er lowered her head and said nothing.
"I think the prince left and followed you, and found out that you went to Concubine Bian's family home and asked for the hairpin from Concubine Bian's brother, right?"
"Besides, before you went to find the young master last night, you had already discovered that Concubine Bian had injured Master Xue. You left first to find this man, and then went to find the young master?"
"This man is the young master that you are trying to frame? As long as the young master dies, Xue Ting will be the only male heir in the Xue family. He will then become the heir to the Xue family fortune, and Xue Ziyi will be thrown into prison! Is that right or not?"
Although Ni Yueshan asked the question calmly, it sounded like a huge blow to Xue Ziyi!
He wanted to help others, but was framed...
He looked at Bian Yong who was kneeling on the ground: "You are so vicious!"
Bian Yong lowered his head, his body was weak and covered in sweat, and he dared not say a word.
Tong'er also remained silent.
In this awkward atmosphere, Jing Yuchen applauded.
"My dear, you are so meticulous and insightful. Just by seeing Tong'er hiding her hand, you suspected that there was something wrong with it, and then asked me to follow her..."
"Sure enough, she didn't go to the pawnshop honestly, but went to the Bian family, took the hairpin, and pretended to redeem it from the pawnshop."
Ni Yueshan chuckled, "You're not bad either. You didn't expose Tong'er back then, but brought this Concubine Bian's brother along with you. Look how scared he is. What on earth did you do to him?"
Jing Yuchen shrugged innocently: "I didn't do anything. I just said something to let the maid do something bad. You still want to run away?"
Ni Yueshan raised the corner of his mouth: "It seems that you have guessed the truth of the case. You and I, are we both the same?"
The two of them flattered each other so much that everyone present understood everything!
Ni Yueshan lowered her eyes and questioned, "Tong'er, tell me the truth. How did you destroy the evidence of Master Xue being stabbed with the hairpin before he died?"
Tong'er looked at Bian Yong beside her, and Ni Yueshan gradually understood that Tong'er was controlled by Bian Yong.
"I am the current Crown Princess. He is just a businessman. What right do I have to threaten you? Just tell me, I will make the decision for you!"
Jing Yuchen coughed at the side. Ni Yueshan used her status as the Crown Princess to pressure others, and it was natural for her to do so.
Ni Yueshan glared at him. Jing Yuchen sat down beside her, picked up Ni Yueshan's teacup and took a sip. It was still warm.
Tong'er finally mustered up the courage to speak: "I actually heard the beating and scolding end outside the door, and I felt very strange, so I pushed open the door and peeked inside. Although Concubine Bian stabbed the master at that time, she was also scared silly..."
"I rushed in. The master was pointing at my aunt and saying he was going to kill her. My hands were covered in blood. I felt that unless the master died, my aunt would have a hard time getting away..."
"I'll just go all out and scratch the back of the master's neck and head. Then I'll smash the wine jars and let him lie on them. This will make his death more complete..."
"But Auntie was so frightened that she didn't respond when I called her. She just covered her head and shrank into her own world."
"When this happened, I was very anxious and had no choice but to go to Master Bian. Master Bian then resorted to such a mean trick and simply put the blame on the eldest young master. By the time the eldest young master arrived, my aunt had gradually calmed down..."
It was Bian Shan. After killing someone, she was so scared that she went temporarily crazy. She lived in her own world and didn't pay any attention to Tong'er at all.
Tong'er is loyal to the Lord, but if he kills someone, he must pay with his life.
This Bian Yong came up with a plan to shift the blame.
"Tong'er, do you regret arresting you for murder?"
