    Hou Yi Yi returned to the Marquis Mansion, deeply exhaled, and then held the porcelain bottle, immediately after into the sleeve, and then lay down on the bed to rest.

    Early the next morning, after Yunxiang waited for Mu Ziyan to wash up, she whispered, “Eldest Miss, last night Zhong Xuan sought out Eldest Miss Hou and gave her another bottle of poison.”

    “En.” Mu Zi Yan faintly answered.

    “Eldest Miss, what exactly should Miss Hou do” Yun Xiang asked in a small voice.

    “Depending on who will be poisoned next, that’s who.” Mu Zi Yan continued, “Zhong Xuan must have been plotting for a long time.”

    “Can’t it be that she is going to turn the eldest young lady” Yunxiang thought that since she had been plotting for a long time, it must be something that is going to come to fruition.

    “It’s a pity, that little trick of hers is really not enough for me to look at nowadays.” Mu Zi Yan sneered, “What is Princess Qing Li doing”

    “These days is no movement, she now under the remaining manpower will be so much, think also dare not have other thoughts.” Yunxiang looked at her and said, “Missy, yesterday lluvia shizi woke up.”

    “En.” Mu Zi Yan whispered, “Woke up just right.”

    “ah” ruexiang puzzled to look at her, thinking that this lluvia shizi is difficult not to be able to help a big help

    Mu Zi Yan raised her eyebrows and looked at Yun Xiang, then said, “Just wait, there will be movement this day.”

    “Yes.” Rue Xiang answered with downcast eyes.

    Inside the Long Pine courtyard, the old madam was cheerful since she got the news, “See, if I don’t do it, someone else will do it.”

    “Old madam, the last time you did something to the eldest miss, I thought that the eldest miss would definitely make a move.” From Sister said as she looked at her.

    “But it’s just a dead person, am I still afraid of her,” the old lady raised her eyebrows and raised her eyes to see Mu Ling Chao dropping his head to enter the room, she whispered, “Chao’s son, how are you doing in the academy these days?”

    “Back to grandmother, everything is fine.” Mu Ling Chao hung his head and answered.

    “That’s good.” The old madam nodded her head and responded, “If you have time, go out and walk around more often.”

    “Grandchildren take note.” Mu Ling Chao answered in a low voice and then retreated.

    “Old madam, the third young master is growing more and more advanced nowadays.” From Sister said with a smile.

    “Yes, how is it at the second house,” the old madam was proud of herself, after all, Mu Ling Chao was taught by her.

    “The second young master has been at peace with himself since his marriage to the second miss Zhang, and has not done anything out of the ordinary.” From Sister said in a low voice.

    “Keep a careful eye on it, the second house is not a light.” The old madam’s eyes narrowed slightly, and she said in a deep voice.

    “Yes.” From Sister answered in a low voice, not daring to say anything more since.

    In the blink of an eye, two days have passed, Hou Yi Yi’s body is also a lot better, Mrs. Hou saw this only a little better.

    Su Qinrou these days but worried, do not dare to go to the Marquis of Mu, also do not want to go to the Hou family, stay in the yard all day moping.

    Seeing her like this, Mrs. Su Hou also sighed along with her, “This county princess also doesn’t know what she’s thinking that Yi Yaou is also a deadbeat.”

    “Mother, this matter nowadays daughter also don’t know how to be good.” Su Qinru raised her eyes and looked at Mrs. Marquis Su, “I also have to cool not wanting to help.”

    “You’d better.” Mrs. Marquis Su went on to say, “so as not to hurt the peace, after you reach maturity since you want to prepare for the wedding, if because of this matter offends the county princess, to be married into the Mu family I have to worry about.”

    “Daughter saves.” Su Qin Rou nodded her head and responded, holding Mrs. Marquis Su’s hand, “Mother, my daughter still wants to stay with you for some more days.”

    “You this girl.” Mrs. Marquis Su looked at her with a light smile, “A woman always has to take this step, since you can find a good match, you have to run it well, and it can’t be cheap for the others.”

    “Daughter took note.” Su Qinrou obediently responded.

    “Now that I see that you have also grown more and more, I am also relieved.” Mrs. Marquis Su said as she touched her cheek.

    At this moment, the sound of a maid’s report came from outside, “Eldest Miss, Eldest Miss Hou is here.”

    “En.” Su Qinrou’s eyes flashed with a flash of surprise, obviously not expecting Hou Yi Yi to come over at this time.

    Lady Marquis Su looked at her, “Perhaps she came to seek you out to complain.”

    “Hey.” Su Qinrui had a sad face, “I don’t know how to persuade her nowadays.”

    “It’s just that, you can accompany her to talk, this time since she needs someone to accompany her.” Mrs. Su Hou looked at her and said.

    “Yes, Mother.” Su Qin Rou nodded her head and replied, then she got up and personally went to welcome Hou Yi Yi.

    After the two of them met and greeted each other, they entered Su Qinruo’s courtyard together.

    Hou Yi Yi raised her eyes to look at her, “I sought you out only to have a physical conversation.”

    “I know.” Su Qinruo held her hand, “Look, it’s only been a few days, but you’ve become so haggard.”

    “I know you don’t want me to mention her.” Hou Yi Yi’s eyes flashed with resentment, “I will not mention it.”

    “I don’t know how to relieve you in this matter.” Su Qinrou sighed quietly, “But now that your body is better, I am relieved.”

    “It’s better, since I won’t die.” Hou Yi Yi said and shed tears.

    Su Qin Rou looked at the heart of the heart, and hastened to draw out the silk handkerchief for to wipe the tears at the corner of the eyes, “Waiting for the son of the body is when to find”

    “I heard that Elder Zhang is still locked up in the prison today” Hou Yi Yi asked as she looked at her.

    “Yes, Sister Lu is in a hurry.” Su Qinrou said quietly.

    Hou Yi Yi held her hand, “Don’t talk about this, I’m not looking for you to come here this day to block my heart.”

    “I’ll keep you company for a day.” Su Qinrou said as she looked at her.

    “I sought you out because I want you to accompany me along to see Elder Zhang.” Hou Yi Yi said as she looked at Su Qin Rou.

    “Oh.” Su Qinruo nodded her head and responded, “It’s something to check out.”

    “Then go now.” Hou Yi Yi whispered.

    “Good.” Su Qinruo nodded and responded, “Wait for me.”

    “En.” Only then did Hou Yi Yi barely show a hint of a smile, and after Su Qin Rou had packed up properly, the two of them left Marquis Su’s mansion together and rode the carriage to the prison.

    After waiting for the prison, Su Qinruo and Hou Yi Yi two people went to the prison, Zhang Zong is wearing a prison uniform sitting on a wooden bench reading a book, frowning deeply, I think it is still for the murderer’s matter hanging.

    Hou Yiyi and Su Qinruo stepped forward, “Lord Zhang.”

    “I am nothing more than a prisoner nowadays.” Zhang Zong got up and looked at the two of them, whispering.

    “Elder Zhang, the murderer will definitely be brought to justice, don’t worry, Elder Zhang.” Su Qinruo said in relief.

    “Ai, nowadays the case that can be solved in addition to” Zhang Zong raised his eyes to look at Hou Yi Yi, then swallowed the words behind.

    Hou Yi Yi’s eyes were downcast and silent, Su Qinrou said some more words of comfort, and then went out of the prison with Hou Yi Yi.

    “I also don’t know when this murderer will be caught.” Su Qinrou looked at Hou Yi Yi, “Why don’t we go and see sister Lu.”

    “No, I have a bit of a headache.” Hou Yi Yi rubbed her forehead and raised her eyes to look at her, “I’ll return to the house first.”

    “Also good.” Seeing her pale face, Su Qinrou helped her onto the carriage and personally sent her back to the Marquis’ house before returning to the Su Marquis’ residence.

    One day passed in this way, and on the following day, news came from inside the prison that Elder Zhang had died.

    This news, those in the Beijing Zhaoyin government offices kneeling in the people have to go to the prison, a time in the capital is more chaotic, only feel that the death of Zhang Daoren is too much injustice.

    The emperor ordered the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Justice to investigate the case, so after a few days, but no clue.

    When Niangzi Lu learned the news of Zhang Zong’s death, she couldn’t bear it at that moment and went to examine the corpse herself, but she also endured the pain of losing her husband and kept Zhang Zong’s body all day long.

    Late at night, Hou Yi Yi stood in front of Zhong Xuan, her face condensed, “Now that Zhang Zong is dead, and Mu Ziyan has been pushed into the limelight, you should be satisfied and return my brother’s body to me.”

    “It’s not possible now.” Zhong Xuan looked at her and said, “If I were to return it to you now, Miss Hou would not be suspicious.”

    “What do you mean,” Hou Yi Yi’s eyes sunk slightly as she looked at her.

    “If the body of the Waiting World Prince was carried out from the Marquis Mu Mansion.” Zhong Xuan was halfway through her sentence, while Hou Yi Yi had already understood the whole thing.

    “I can’t do anything about this matter.” Hou Yi Yi continued.

    “Eldest Miss Hou can just go to the Marquis Mu Mansion and ask for the body.” Zhong Xuan said with a smile.

    “Good.” Hou Yi Yi said, “I personally caused Zhang Zong’s death, now I have become your accomplice, if I don’t agree, you will tell the truth about this matter, and it will be hard for me to escape culpability.”

    “Eldest Miss Hou really does know a thing or two.” Zhong Xuan spoke with a light smile.

    Hou Yi Yi turned to leave and didn’t stay any longer.

    Zhong Xuan eyed Hou Yi Yi’s departing back, her eyes shattered with a cold light, “Act according to the plan.”

    “Yes.” The henchman answered with his head hanging down, and then he dashed away.

    Inside the Marquis Mu’s residence, Mu Zi Yan is now standing in front of the bookcase, lifting her eyes, she sees Yun Xiang coming.

    “Do it,” Mu Zi Yan asked faintly.

    “Yes.” Yun Xiang hung her head and answered, “Eldest Miss, do you really want to let them do this”

    “En.” Mu Zi Yan answered in a low voice, “But you guys can’t reveal yourselves.”

    “The slave servant saves.” Yunxiang understood for herself that this time was also the time to close the net.

    Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at her, “There’s something else”

    “Eldest Miss, Miss Lu’s complexion has been somewhat abnormal these past few days.” Yunxiang whispered.

    “I know.” Mu Zi Yan faintly responded, “Just keep an eye on it.”

    “Yes.” Yun Xiang answered with downcast eyes and retreated.

    Inside the Long Pine Courtyard, from Sister handed her a secret letter, “Old Madame, this Zhong Xuan has something to ask for.”

    “En.” The old madam unfolded the secret letter, and after reading it, she whispered, “Just do as she says.”

    “Old madam, what if this matter leaks out?” From Sister Mu Zi Yan had suffered a lot, so she was a bit worried.

    “The wind,” the old madam’s eyes narrowed slightly, “you just let Zhong Xuan’s people in, and they’ll do the rest.”

    “Old slave understands.” From Sister understood at that moment, and then retreated.

    The old madam’s eyes narrowed slightly, and she said in a deep voice, “I would like to see how Smoke Maiden can hide this time.”

    So then passed two days, Mu Zi Yan these days are comfortable, but the outside came the movement, see Hou Yi Yi with people broke in.

    “Why is this,” Mu Zi Yan asked in a cold voice as she walked forward and looked at Hou Yi Yi.

    “Sheriff, I received a secret letter saying that you took my brother’s body and hid it in the courtyard.” Hou Yi Yi came forward and looked at Mu Zi Yan, where there was still the softness of the past days, her face was condensed, and there were also a few points of smugness.

    Mu Zi Yan’s eyes then turned cold, “Why did sister Yi Yi accuse me so wrongly”

    “This is father’s special trip to the palace to beg for an imperial decree.” Hou Yi Yi said and unfolded the holy decree.

    Mu Zi Yan stepped back and respectfully bowed, “Since it’s His Majesty’s decree, then search.”

    “What are you still standing there for,” Hou Yi Yi turned her eyes to look at the yamen behind her and said in a cold voice.

    “Yes.” The magistrate behind him answered, turned around and left the house, and began to search the courtyard.

    Qi got the letter, rushed over, to see the yard head searching the magistrates, her eyes cold sinking, then into the house, to see Hou Yi Yi standing in the hall, Mu Zi Yan is staring at her, she coldly said, “Smoke, what is this in the end.”

    “Mother, it’s just a search.” Mu Zi Yan said with a smile.

    “Searching,” Qi’s eyes shattered out a flash of cold light and whispered, “even searching into the Marquis Mu residence.”

    “Ma’am, Yi Yi has the Emperor’s imperial decree here.” Hou Yi Yi said as she looked at her.

    “The holy decree and how” Qi coldly snorted, “is not because the smoke did not go to intervene in the Hou Shi Zi murder thing, Hou family will be jealous of the smoke on the child and this kind of rogue her”

    “Whether it’s a slander or not, we’ll know when it’s searched.” Hou Yi Yi whispered.

    “I can’t imagine that the Hou family’s young lady is so capable.” Qi’s eyes narrowed slightly, and she was instantly annoyed.

    Mu Zi Yan stepped forward, “Mother, don’t be angry, go back to rest first, this matter is my daughter’s own decision.”

    “Good.” Qi saw Mu Zi Yan’s eyes calm down, so she glanced at Hou Yi Yi and turned to leave.

    When Qi left, she saw the magistrate outside walk in, “Back to Miss Hou, the body of Hou Shizi was dug up in the backyard.”

    “Sheriff, do you have something to say,” Hou Yi Yi stepped forward and glared angrily at Mu Zi Yan.

    “I have nothing to say.” Mu Zi Yan looked at her and whispered.

    “Since there’s nothing to say, then let’s go to the public hall to talk about it.” Hou Yi Yi raised her eyes and looked at the magistrate in front of her, “Please don’t ask the Sheriff Lord to move.”

    “Sheriff Lord please.” The magistrate in front of her looked at Mu Ziyan and said.

    Mu Zi Yan sneered, raised her steps and went out of the courtyard, when she saw the corpse of Hou Shi Zi placed in the courtyard, she turned her eyes to Hou Yi Yi, “I didn’t expect sister Yi Yi to have such a courageous means.”

    “I don’t know what Sheriff Master is talking about” Hou Yi Yi smiled faintly, her eyes flashed with cold light.

    Standing outside the courtyard to watch the scene from the Sister from the situation in front of me to see a real, secretly this Hou big miss eighty percent by Zhong Xuan bought, it seems that this matter is true, the big miss to suffer.

    Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at her, the corner of her mouth hooked, and she said in a low voice, “What I’m saying, Yiyi sister knows it by heart.”

    “Is that so,” Hou Yi Yi coldly laughed, since there was no need to say more, lifting her steps and walking outside.

    Seeing that the eldest young lady had really been taken away, from the Sister, she was overjoyed and hurriedly went to report to the old madam.

    The old madam’s eyes sank slightly, “Do not be too happy too soon.”

    “Old madam, that Miss Hou’s attitude towards the eldest young lady, the old slave has seen it for real, it doesn’t seem like she’s faking.” From Sister whispered.

    “En.” The old lady responded faintly, “Wait and see.”

    “Yes.” From Sister answered in a low voice.

    Qi learned the news and was so angry that she clapped her hands together, “What a Miss Hou.”

    “Ma’am, you mustn’t be in a hurry, this matter also needs to wait for what the eldest young lady’s end says.” Sister Cui looked at Qi and said.

    “What else can I say, now that the people have been taken away.” Qi raised her eyes to look at her, “Where is Xuan’er”

    “Eldest Young Master has gotten the news and has rushed to the Jingzhao Yin’s government office.” Sister Cui worriedly returned.

    “Just go.” Qi said in a cold voice, “Wait a little longer.”

    “Yes.” Sister Cui answered with her head hanging down, so she didn’t dare to interrupt.

    Mu Zi Yan then brought into the Beijing Zhaoyin government office, Zhang Zong has died, now there is the Ministry of the Ministry of Justice, Lord Li to take over, to see Mu Zi Yan, since it is to get up and respectfully salute, “I see the county magistrate.”

    “Lord Li is courteous, I can’t be worthy of this title of County Lord nowadays.” Mu Zi Yan laughed lowly and said, “Since Hou Shi Zi’s body was found from my courtyard, there must be a decision on this matter.”

    “Sheriff Lord, I’ll take care of business.” Lord Li whispered.

    “Good.” Mu Zi Yan nodded and answered.

    Hou Yi Yi stood aside, looking coldly at Mu Zi Yan, the corner of her mouth hooked into a cold smile, then she knelt down, “I still hope that your lordship will make a decision.”

    “Don’t worry Miss Hou, this matter will be handled impartially by this official.” Lord Li looked at Mu Zi Yan, “Sheriff, how did this Hou Shizi’s body appear in Sheriff’s courtyard”

    Mu Zi Yan whispered, “I don’t know, is it possible that someone deliberately planted the evidence”

    “What about this poison,” Lord Li said and picked up the poison handed to him by the magistrate.

    Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look, “This is”

    “It was seized from the head of the Sheriff Lord’s house, and this is the poison that killed Hou Shizi and Lord Zhang.” Lord Li looked at her and said.

    “Oh.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and responded, “Even if that’s the case, that doesn’t prove that the deaths of Elder Zhang and Hou Shi Zi were my doing.”

    “Now that the human and material evidence is all there, how can the county princess be sophomoric,” Lord Li said as he looked at her coldly.

    “Lord Li, is it true that there are witnesses and material evidence” Mu Zi Yan asked with a raised eyebrow.

    Lord Li naturally knew that Mu Zi Yan was an expert case solver, and although Lu Erniang had not returned yet now, she was not to be underestimated, and he whispered, “Come on, first put the culprits in the dungeon.”

    “Yes.” The magistrate answered, and then went forward.

    Mu Zi Yan turned to leave, turning her eyes to glance meaningfully at Hou Yi Yi.

    Hou Yi Yi’s eyes flashed with a flash of ghostly light as she raised her eyes to look at Lord Li, “Your Excellency, this matter”

    “What the Sheriff said is not unreasonable.” Lord Li continued, “I’m afraid this case will be difficult to handle.”

    Hou Yi Yi whispered, “Then can you allow my daughter to bring my brother’s body back”

    “Since we’ve already found it, this corpse looks like it can’t be stored for too long, so let’s arrange the aftermath early.” Lord Li looked towards the corpse of Hou Shi Zi lying on the side and remembered his own dead son.

    Hou Yi Yi hung her head and answered, since she had some feelings, she turned her eyes to look at Hou Shi Zi, then ordered people to carry Hou Shi Zi’s body back to the Marquis Mansion.

    Mu Zi Yan was imprisoned and Mu Ling Xuan rushed to see her.

    “Sister, what are you” Mu Lingxuan looked at Mu Zi Yan standing inside the cell, his eyes flashed with a cold light, “What the hell is going on”

    “Brother, I was planted.” Mu Zi Yan looked at him and said.

    “I know.” Mu Lingxuan continued, “Exactly what is going to harm you”
