"At that time, the common people were still thinking about why Mrs. Shen and Young Master Shen brought the same girl to choose jewelry two days apart. The girl's clothes were not luxurious, so the common people were very impressed."
Huang Zushi added another sentence and said: "Take the white magnolia hairpin on the princess's bun as an example. It also comes from Cuiyuxuan. White jade of this kind is hard to find. It has a transparent color, no flaws and no splicing." , the carving technique is even better, so the finished product is worth ten thousand taels of silver..."
After hearing this, Mu Lingwei was filled with embarrassment. This humble hairpin was worth ten thousand taels of silver.
It's a sky-high price.
She had better not wear it on her head and put it away when she got back to avoid breaking it, which would be a pity.
Mu Lingwei took another deep look at Huang Zushi. To be able to do such a big business and have such good eyesight, it seems that Cuiyuxuan's background is not small.
She added: "Zhang Zhenniang and Shen Yu wanted to take advantage of Wang Huan'er, but they only bought her jewelry instead of clothes, shoes and socks. I guess they wanted to kill her after they finished using Wang Huan'er. Get the jewelry back."
"Wang Huan'er tried to marry into a high-ranking family and be a concubine, so she lost her virginity to Shen Yu. Unexpectedly, in the end, they just used her. Their evil intentions are unparalleled." She sneered again: "Wang Huan'er In the end, all you can do is draw water from a bamboo basket and get nothing.”
Everyone was also frightened. Just to kidnap Princess Anyang, the couple Zhang Zhenniang and Shen Yu really did everything they could!
"Boss Huang, please step aside after I finish asking my questions." Mu Lingwei said quickly.
"Yes." Huang Zushi said.
After Huang Zushi left, Xu Tao brought the coachman up again. As soon as he got out of the alley, he was stopped by someone.
At that time, he knew that they had been deceived and that he wanted to commit suicide, but the other party had already known his intention and he could not die even if he wanted to.
All the witnesses were matched, and now the Shen family had nothing to say.
Mu Lingwei glanced at Shen Chen and Shen Bi, and said in a deep voice: "I happen to have a witness here to clear up everyone's doubts. General Shen has nothing to say now."
Shen Chen wanted to say something else, but was held back by Shen Bi. The matter had come to this, and they now had to find a way to protect themselves.
"Changlefang is obviously the Shen family's business, but they turned it over to an old madam and a steward. I didn't expect that Changlefang would do such a sinful thing, kidnap so many women, force them into prostitution, and if you don't obey them, they will directly torture them to death. .”
Someone else deliberately talked loudly: "Today, the entire Longyuan Kingdom is offering sacrifices to God, eating fast, chanting Buddha's prayers, and praying for good weather. I didn't expect that the brothel owned by the Shen family is still doing this kind of thing. Whose influence did his family dare to do this?" Do."
"Isn't it just because the Queen Mother is also named Shen?"
"Yes, who doesn't know that Changlefang has been managed by the Second Young Master Shen... The Shen family has also tried their best to protect the Second Young Master Shen. Unexpectedly, Princess Anyang is not easy to bully."
There was an explosion outside the Yamen.
Immediately afterwards, Mu Lingwei said again: "Zhang Zhenniang, what else do you have to say now? Just say it. I am all ears. Those girls in the Changlefang darkroom and those dead girls, you and Shen Yu must give them a Explain."
Zhang Zhenniang bit her lips tightly, almost suffocating from nervousness.
At this time, she suddenly touched the golden hairpin in her bun and wanted to stab herself.
In an instant, Mu Lingwei realized that she was about to commit suicide, raised her toes and kicked Zhang Zhenniang violently on the arm.
Zhang Zhenniang's arm went numb and the golden hairpin fell to the ground. She burst into tears and crawled on the ground and started crying: "A civilian woman doesn't know, she doesn't know anything."
She actually didn't have the courage to die.
At this moment, Zhang Zhenniang seemed to hear the cry of a little girl, and she murmured: "Ling'er, my Ling'er."
As soon as she said the words, a woman rushed in, grabbed Zhang Zhenniang's hair, slapped her several times, and cursed angrily: "Bitch, it was you who harmed Yu'er, you are greedy Not enough, marrying my Yu'er is just for my family's money, why do you want to harm your husband, why don't you die?"
When everyone saw the person clearly, they realized that this shrew was Mrs. Shen.
Zhang Zhenniang was also frightened to death, "It's not me. It's not me who wants to harm him. It's someone else. Mom, where is Linger? Where is my Linger?"
She was beaten and scolded by Mrs. Shen in public, but she didn't dare to fight back, so she had to endure it.
"Don't call me mother. I don't have a vicious-hearted daughter-in-law like you, and Ling'er doesn't have a mother like you. Ling'er's face has been completely humiliated by you. What did you do behind Yu'er's back? You said ..." Mrs. Shen stared at her coldly and said angrily.
Zhang Zhenniang stared at Mrs. Shen in horror. Mrs. Shen's eyes were like sharp knives, eager to carve out her flesh.
She glanced at Shen Chen and Shen Bi again, and no one was on her side.
She looked around again, but even her mother and father didn't come to see her.
Suddenly, there was another gold hairpin in her hand. She put it against her neck and said: "I did all these things. I plead guilty. I was greedy for money. I let people do it." They kidnapped these girls and then sold them."
"I plead guilty," she said sharply.
At the same time, Mu Lingwei saw another gold hairpin pressed against Zhang Zhenniang's neck, and Mrs. Shen was still blocking her.
She glanced at the gold hairpin on the ground again, only to realize that the gold hairpin in Zhang Zhenniang's hand was not the original one, but was taken from Mrs. Shen's hair bun. It is also possible that Mrs. Shen gave it to her on purpose, with the purpose of making her commit suicide. .
It happened so suddenly that she didn't see Mrs. Shen's actions clearly.
"Zhang Zhenniang, don't be impulsive. Is the Ling'er you called just now your daughter? If you die like this, don't you want to see your daughter?" Mu Lingwei reacted quickly. She heard Shen Rou As I said, Zhang Zhenniang gave birth to a daughter, who was not well received by Shen Yu.
Zhang Zhenniang's pupils shrank, and a look of worry flashed across her face. If she died, what would happen to her daughter?
However, if she doesn't die, it will be even harder for her daughter.
So, I saw Zhang Zhenniang staring coldly at Mrs. Shen, her eyes full of death-defying determination: "Mom, Ling'er is also your granddaughter. You must treat her well. I know that my sin is serious and I deserve to die."
If she dares to treat Ling'er badly, she will not let her go even if she is a ghost.
Zhang Zhenniang's leg was originally injured, which did not affect her walking for the time being, but now she moved too much, and blood soaked into her leg again.
Just when she was about to commit suicide again, a hidden weapon suddenly bounced out of the crowd and hit Zhang Zhenniang on the wrist. She tried to commit suicide again, but still failed.
Jun Yi quickly asked the officers and soldiers to restrain Zhang Zhenniang, fearing that she would commit suicide again.
At the same time, everyone's eyes were on the court, and no one noticed who popped out the hidden weapon.
Mu Lingwei looked into the crowd, and Yan Qi was no longer visible.
She thought to herself: "Is it Yan Qi? Is he helping her?"
Now she had no time to take care of Yan Qi. Mrs. Shen stood directly in front of Mu Lingwei and cursed continuously.
No one expected that Mrs. Shen would directly rush up and insult Zhang Zhenniang.
Zhang Zhenniang is guilty, but Shen Yu is even more guilty.
They deserve to die, and they cannot die in such an unclear manner.
Mu Lingwei walked to Mrs. Shen again and pulled her away.
Just now, this crazy woman suddenly broke in, and everyone was unexpected.
Until now, she had never thought that the Shen family would let Zhang Zhenniang take the blame alone.
Mrs. Shen stared at Mu Lingwei, hating her so much that she wanted to vomit blood. She rushed forward and wanted to slap Mu Lingwei in the face, but Mu Lingwei avoided her.
Mrs. Shen still refused to give up and said angrily: "Mu Lingwei, please give my son his life. You vicious woman, why did you harm him like this?"
Even in front of the Empress Dowager, Mrs. Shen thought, she was Yu'er's mother, and her son was injured so seriously, so it was natural for her to go crazy.
