Mrs. An Bohou and Mrs. Guo Gongfu usually have a good relationship.

An Bohou is Concubine Yun's cousin, so naturally he is on the prince's side, and the Duke's office also supports the prince. Based on this alone, the two families are close.

Mrs. An Bohou wanted to punish Gu Yunyao and make her pay for her daughter's life, but she didn't want others to know that her daughter died a humiliating death. After thinking about it, Mrs. An Bohou, who was good at making incense, was the best choice.

When it comes to a major matter related to the death of her daughter, the Duke's wife will definitely not refuse. Afterwards, thinking about their relationship, she will not go out and talk nonsense;

What's more, the Duke's wife also hated Gu Yunyao because her son took two concubines.

Seeing Shi Fuyin's hesitation, An Bohou said: "Sir, you won't even agree to this request, right?

If this woman doesn't admit that there is spice, can she just forget it?

The Duke's wife knows her well and knows what she used to use. What worries do you have?"

Shi Fuyin nodded: "Okay, someone is here..."

"No need," Hou Renren told his aunt who was standing outside the hall, "go and ask the Duke's wife to come."

"yes."

Gu Yunyao lowered her eyes and thought, the next step would be a tough battle. Regardless of whether the Duke's wife knew what kind of incense she used in the past, she would definitely bite her to death.

She also quickly recalled that she had no habit of using incense and rarely used perfume in modern times.

She wants to learn herbal medicine and medicine, and taste is very important.

After arriving here, the original owner did have several sachets, but he didn't seem to wear them when he went to Su's house that day.

As long as there is no concrete evidence, no matter what the Duke's wife says, she will not admit it.

It depends on whether this Lord Fu Yin can withstand it and remain honest and strong to the end.

But who killed Shen Shenchen? How much hatred is this, to harm someone like this?

In ancient times, people paid much attention to honor and integrity. Holding hands could lead to being scolded for being uncouth, let alone something like this.

Even if you die, your reputation will be ruined. Who did Shen Shenchen offend?

Time passed quickly, and footsteps finally came from outside the hall.

Several people looked at it together, and it was the nun sent by Mrs. Hou who came in.

The Duke's wife did not come.

Mrs. Hou was a little anxious, so she stepped forward and asked, "Where is the Duke's wife? Is she in the back?"

"Back to Madam," Mammy shook her head, "The Duke's wife is ill. It is said that she was frightened. She really can't get out of bed today."

Mrs. Hou was trembling slightly and her lips were trembling. She was sick at this time. Who were you kidding?

Gu Yunyao was also surprised that the Duke's wife didn't come? How could she let such a good opportunity pass?

Everything about today's incident is strange.

Mrs. Hou turned around and walked out: "I will go find her myself!"

Before he finished speaking, he saw a person walking slowly.

He wears a smoky blue brocade robe with a jade belt around his waist. He has pale skin and sinister eyes.

He walked very slowly, and if you look closely, there seemed to be something wrong with his legs.

Gu Yunyao raised her eyebrows slightly.

Lu Chuanlin came to the hall and nodded slightly: "Sir, just now people from the Hou Mansion went to invite my mother. My mother was unable to come due to illness, but she was thinking of her friendship with Mrs. Hou and was very concerned about this matter.

Therefore, my mother specially ordered me to send this gift."

He raised his hand, holding a delicate sachet in his palm.

"This is a sachet made by my mother. The spices inside are also carefully prepared by my mother. They can not only deodorize the body, but also repel insects and strengthen the body.

Ever since General Gu disappeared, my mother would give this sachet to the head of Yongning County every Chinese New Year, with different colors and the same spices every year.

My mother had prepared this one early this year, but unexpectedly, she couldn’t use it.”

A smile appeared on Lu Chuanlin's gloomy face, making people feel like their hairs were standing on end.

"My mother said, tear this sachet open and compare it with the fragrant powder you found, and you will know the result."

Lu Chuanlin glanced at Gu Yunyao, his eyes like a cold poisonous snake: "Of course, if the county master said that the few sachets he gave before were lost and disappeared, then it is beyond my mother's control. It depends on the adults to discern everything."

Gu Yunyao chuckled: "The Crown Prince is really smart. Oh, by the way, the Crown Prince has adopted two beautiful concubines. I wonder if the tokens exchanged between the Gu Mansion and the Duke's Mansion can be returned to the Gu Mansion?"

Lu Chuanlin narrowed his eyes slightly: "Everything has been returned a long time ago. I have nothing to do with you anymore. What tokens do you have left?"

"Of course, if the prince insists on saying that the previous token has been returned, lost, or missing, then there is nothing I can do about it."

Lu Chuanlin clenched his back teeth and clenched the sachet with his fingers, almost crushing his phalanges.

Gu Yunyao! So cunning and treacherous! He dismissed what he just said in just a few words.

If I had known that today would become a disaster, I should have strangled her to death!

Mrs. Hou added: "My lord, no matter what, the prince has brought the sachet and I would like you to examine it."

Shi Fuyin motioned for inspection.

When the sachet is opened, there is a white inner bag containing some fragrant powder.

Take out a little bit and compare it with the one in the paper bag.

"Sir, I am not proficient in making incense. I only have a superficial understanding of it. However, judging from the smell and color, they are 70-80% similar."

Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Hou cried again: "It's you, it really is you!"

You are so vicious-hearted, my daughter only had a few words with you, but you actually acted so cruelly."

Lu Chuanlin stood aside, his eyebrows slightly lowered, and a faint sneer at the corner of his mouth.

Shi Fuyin frowned: "Mrs. Hou, you can talk about it later."

"County Lord, do you have anything to say?"

"Sir, I have nothing to say."

Shifu Yin was startled, and Lu Chuanlin turned his head to look at her.

An Bohou shouted: "My lord, did you hear that? She admitted it. Arrest her and put her in jail and torture her!"

Gu Yunyao dusted his sleeves: "Sir, I have nothing to say. This is not a confession, but I really have nothing to say."

"The fragrant powder in Miss Shen's nails is consistent with the fragrant powder in the sachet brought by the prince. Then you should ask the Duke's office what is going on and what does it have to do with the county master?"

"I have never seen this kind of sachet before, and Miss Shen was not in the city when she was killed last night."

"The time and physical evidence don't match up," Gu Yunyao nodded to Lu Chuanlin, "Your Majesty, thank you for bringing the evidence to prove that the county owner is innocent."

"You..." Mrs. Hou couldn't control herself and wanted to pounce on her again, "You are so shameless!"

Gu Yunyao's face was gloomy and her tone was cold: "Mrs. Hou, be careful what you say!

The County Lord has seen that you are suffering from the loss of your daughter and has tolerated you again and again. If you are still aggressive and unscrupulous, don’t blame the County Lord for being rude!"

"You keep claiming that the county master harmed Shen Chen, where are the witnesses and physical evidence?

There is no personal evidence, and the physical evidence is just the bit of powder in the fingernails. You say it belongs to the county owner? Then the county owner still says it is not!"

"The prince ignored his two beautiful concubines and came out to seek justice. His red mouth and white teeth said that he had sent a sachet to the county lord.

The county master is currently engaged to the King of Qin. How can you be so virtuous and capable? When the county master goes out to kill someone, you still have things on your body that were given to you by your duke’s government?"

"You deserve it too!"

Her every word resounded throughout the hall, like loud slaps on Lu Chuanlin's face.

Lu Chuanlin's flames hit his head, his eyes were bloodshot, and he wished he could tear Gu Yunyao into pieces in the next moment.
