2105 Chapter 2105-unable to verify
However, it was a pity for the shoes. Ye cuiru’s shoes, which Song Yi had mentioned were stained with mud and fallen flowers, had been washed clean after so long.
Ye cuiru insisted that Song Yi had seen it wrong, but Song Yi insisted that he saw that kind of flower.
So many days had passed, and there was no way to verify it.
“Although ye cuiru’s route is correct, we can’t rule out the possibility that she has been to the official road outside the city where wildflowers grow. She just needs to be a little faster.” Gu Xin pursed her lips and said.
“Third young lady, Xie Jun requests an audience!” At this moment, a bailiff came in to report.
“Let him in!” Gu Xin nodded her head.
After a while, Xie Jun came in with another person, man Zhu.
Manzhu’s hands were tied behind her back, her hair was a little messy and her mouth was gagged. When she saw Gu Xin, it was as if she had seen her Savior. Her beautiful eyes were full of pleading, making people want to save her.
“Student greets Princess.” Xie Jun stepped forward and saluted.
“Why did you bring her here?” Gu Xin asked with a frown.
“Princess, your student found this in manzhu’s room.” Xie Jun took out an earring. It was obvious that it was a pair with the Pearl Earring that Gu Xin found, and there was something carved on it.
This pair of earrings was a birthday gift from Xie Jun to the deceased. It was not a finished product that he had bought, but had been made by someone. Therefore, other than the craftsman who made it, no one knew this pair of earrings better than Xie Jun.
Gu Xin took a look at it and it was true.
“Princess, your student asked manzhu and found a few suspicious points.” Xie Jun added when he saw that Gu Xin had recognized him.
“Go ahead,” Gu Xin nodded.
“Manzhu said that she had a bad stomach that day and couldn’t find her student’s sister when she came out. After looking for a while, she went home to wait. However, no one could prove that she was at home that day. She said that she was afraid of being scolded by the student’s parents, so she didn’t go out and stayed alone. However, the other maidservant in the student’s younger sister’s yard, Xueyun, was doing needlework in her room that day. In between, Xueyun even scolded the cleaning maidservant. After cleaning the yard, no one saw manzhu. So, manzhu lied.” As Xie Jun spoke, he turned his head and glared at manzhu, continuing, ” manzhu was only seen when it was almost time to slip away. In other words, from the time she went out with her student’s sister to this hour, she was no longer around, and there were many things she could do. I suspect that she is related to the death of my sister.”
Man Zhu cried and shook her head, making a wuwuwu sound, looking very pitiful.
Gu Xin asked the bailiff beside her to remove the cloth from manzhu’s mouth and asked in a deep voice, ” “Manzhu, do you have anything to say?”
Man Zhu knelt on the ground, and because her hands were tied behind her back, she almost fell. She steadied her body and said aggrievedly, ” “Princess, everything this servant said before was true and not a lie. This servant does not know why young lady’s earrings would be in this servant’s room. This servant returned to the fu that day. No one saw this servant because this servant was worried that they would ask young lady, so this servant deliberately avoided them. This servant really did not lie. Princess, please investigate!”
Gu Xin felt the ball of wool in her head become even messier and even more unclear.
“Because at that time, Madam and master were looking for young lady, and this servant was also panicking. If this servant didn’t appear, what if something happened to young lady Yingluo?” manzhu’s tears had already formed a line, and she couldn’t continue to say the rest of her words.
