After rebirth, the cold prince clings to me every day

Chapter 33 The murderer of the family murder case!

When we returned, the two people opposite finally stopped.

Shen Mingjiao yawned and fell onto the bed, closing her eyes for a moment and falling into a deep sleep.

Feng Lisheng helped her tuck in the quilt and glanced at the narrow bed, reluctant to look away.

Sit cross-legged on the ground and meditate carefully.

The next day, as the morning light faded, Shen Mingjiao opened her eyes and moved her limbs that were sore from sleep uncomfortably.

Opening the door, I saw Feng Lisheng talking to Tie Zhu.

Seeing her coming out, Tie Zhu winked at her.

Shen Mingjiao understood. It seemed that the things she told her yesterday were completed.

However, it was not convenient to talk here after all. Shen Mingjiao simply washed up, and the three of them walked out of the yard. Tie Zhu led the two of them to a remote woodshed.

"My subordinate followed the maid as ordered by the princess. After Mrs. Lian returned, she lost her temper and threw the maid out of the courtyard. The subordinate then brought her here."

Shen Mingjiao asked: "How is she now? Is she still conscious?"

"She was already awake when her subordinates passed by, but she couldn't accept that her face was scratched for a moment. She rushed forward like crazy to fight Mrs. Lian, but was kicked away by the maid next to Mrs. Lian."

Shen Mingjiao lowered her eyes and thought deeply. From the time the maid was controlled until she asked Tie Zhu to follow the maid, only about half a cup of tea had passed.

In other words, Mrs. Lian uses magic to control people - let's call it magic for now, and it can only last for about half a cup of tea.

Tie Zhu pushed open the door of the woodshed, and saw a woman in an awkward shape huddled in the corner, her head lowered, with dried blood mixed with scars stuck to her face. When she heard the movement, the woman raised her head numbly, her eyes empty.

Shen Mingjiao stepped forward and said directly: "I have medicine in my hand that can remove the scars on your face."

The woman suddenly raised her head and stared at her, her originally desperate eyes bursting with hope: "Are you serious?"

"As long as you can heal my face, you can do anything you ask me to do."

Shen Mingjiao waved her hand: "It's not that exaggerated. I just want to know something about Mrs. Lian."

When Mrs. Lian was mentioned, the woman's eyes were full of hatred. She seemed to have guessed what Shen Mingjiao and the others wanted to know, and whispered:

"My name is Xiaorui. I was originally a young lady...that is, I am now the sweeping maid in Mrs. Zhao's courtyard."

"And Cailian was an orphan girl that the young lady rescued on her way to a temple fair. The young lady brought her back to her home. At first, like me, she was just a cleaning maid in the courtyard, with a rather dull and timid temperament.

Later, after the young lady and Mr. Zhao got engaged, Cai Lian's popularity suddenly improved inexplicably, and soon she became the most respected first-class maid around the young lady."

"Then the Zhao family was suddenly unjustly imprisoned. The master and his wife were afraid of being implicated, so they broke off the engagement with the Zhao family regardless of the young lady's objections, and the young lady was also grounded.

I heard with my own ears that the young lady took out all the money she had and asked Cailian to secretly use it to attack the guards guarding Young Master Zhao, so that Young Master Zhao would suffer less in prison."

"Not long after, the Zhao family was cleared of their grievances, and Mr. Zhao took the initiative to come to the house and propose to marry the young lady again..."

Shen Mingjiao interrupted her and asked doubtfully: "Isn't it said that Mr. Zhao was Mrs. Zhao who was forced to take action?"

Xiaorui shook her head and said bitterly: "It's all that bitch Cailian. At that time, the young lady knew that she had no shame to marry Mr. Zhao again. Mr. Zhao came to the door again and again, and the young lady was moved. However, Mr. Zhao proposed to marry Mr. Zhao.

Lotus was kind to him, and he wanted the lotus picker to be his concubine. The young lady thought it was really just a favor, so she agreed."

"But when the young lady got married, Mr. Zhao humiliated and made things difficult for her in every possible way.

All this is because of that bitch Cai Lian, who tried her best to provoke you in front of you, making you hate the young lady."

Shen Mingjiao frowned: "Then Mrs. Zhao didn't explain it?"

It is impossible for Zhao Ke, an official, to not see such an obvious thing, right? Unless he is really blind.

"I explained it, but my lord didn't believe it. He only believed that the young lady had betrayed him."

Shen Mingjiao did not continue to ask further questions, but instead said: "Tell me about Mrs. Lian's usual unusual behavior."

Xiaorui instantly understood the meaning of his words. Thinking of what happened yesterday, she shuddered:

"I was transferred to work with her a few months ago, but the people around her are very loyal to her. They are so loyal that they don't have any resentment even if they are beaten to death by her."

Feng Lisheng suddenly asked her: "When did Mrs. Lian start raising small dogs?"

Xiaorui was stunned for a moment. She thought for a while and said: "About half a year ago! Mrs. Lian suddenly became obsessed with raising small dogs for some reason. She got dozens of small dogs back in one go, which made things everywhere in the house.

It's a dog barking."

"But it's strange to say that those small dogs are very fierce, but they are very docile in front of her."

"It's just...it didn't take long for her to get tired of raising them. At a banquet, she gave all the fine dogs to the ladies of various houses who came to the banquet. Because she was the most favored concubine of Lord Luodu, she usually

There were many people who fawned over her, and at that time it was very popular among Luodu’s upper class to keep small dogs.”

Seeing that she had finished asking the questions, Shen Mingjiao planned to leave first.

Xiaorui looked at Shen Mingjiao eagerly, "...my face."

Shen Mingjiao gave an address, then pulled a purse from her waist, "Take this to my maid and ask her to give you a bottle of skin-building ointment."

Shengji Jade Skin Cream is a secret medicine in the palace. As long as the injury is not too severe, the scar can be removed in the end.

Before coming here, just in case, Father Hua prepared various medicines for bruises and injuries for her and Feng Lisheng, including this vitality jade skin ointment.

Anyway, she doesn't need it right now, so she might as well give it to someone in need. After all, the world is harsh on women. If her appearance is ruined, the rest of her life will be over.

Xiaorui glanced at her gratefully, knelt down and kowtowed heavily to her.

…

After leaving the woodshed and arriving at a secluded place, Shen Mingjiao couldn't help but say: "Why do I feel that Mrs. Lian is particularly suitable for the murderer of the family murder case?"

Feng Lisheng said slowly: "It is possible, but everything must be based on evidence."

Shen Mingjiao touched her chin and thought deeply, "Judging from Xiao Rui's words, Mrs. Lian was an ordinary person at the beginning. She must have had some opportunities later."

"And Mr. Zhao, either he is blind, or Mrs. Lian did something to him. For example, the Northern Xinjiang witchcraft you mentioned before can tamper with people's memories."

Feng Lisheng pondered: "It's possible."

"But now that there is a breakthrough in the case, if you want to confirm whether the murderer is Mrs. Lian, you will know after giving it a try."
