Chapter 48 (1/2)

”Girl, don't talk nonsense. Guanyin Bodhisattva is still a child and doesn't understand. Don't blame yourself. Don't find her if you have anything. It will scare her...” mother Zhu pleaded with her hands together.

Hearing these words, Shen Xinmei only felt that her back was cold, as if there was a ghost, so she wanted to tell the master that she wanted to go back, ”master...”

But before she could speak, Yu caichen interrupted her, ”don't make noise!”

Yu caichen was definitely intentional, and Shen Xinmei didn't dare to say anything, so she had to stay here.

However, just when she was frightened and wanted to leave directly, Yu caichen suddenly turned around and said, ”get me a sword!”

Then the attendants around him gave him the sword he was wearing. He took the sword and looked at the body. Shen Xinmei was pale with fear after understanding the collector's intention.

When the body was cut open, the jade mining minister was angry, ”who said that no one had sent food in, what was in his stomach?”

The housekeeper hurriedly knelt down, ”my Lord, I really don't know!”

”Don't tell the truth soon. Are you tired of sitting in the housekeeper's position or living?” Yu caichen's sharp eyes swept over him and looked at Shen Xinmei who was vomiting nearby.

Qin Zhongwu didn't eat all night. His stomach was full of half digested food. Moreover, it was not ordinary food. It was delicacies, which made it clear that he was poisoned“

Qin Zhongwu, a poor old man, how could he eat such delicacies!

”Master, I really don't know. The slave and the people at the bottom are committed to their duties and have been guarded all the time. I really don't know what happened!” The housekeeper knelt down and vowed.

The housekeeper looked at Yu caichen's eyes and felt something wrong. He hurriedly knelt and turned to ask the entourage behind him, ”who came in when you were here yesterday?”

Hearing the housekeeper's words, several attendants quickly knelt down and said tremblingly, ”sir... Please forgive me, sir. Aunt Liu came last night. She said she was a distant relative of the man. She came to give him something to eat before he died. The slaves saw that Aunt Liu had always been a good man in the house and took good care of the slaves... So the servant was soft hearted for a moment, Let her in... Just, I never expected such a thing... ”

”So, bring Aunt Liu up!” The jade mining minister kicked the follower who spoke and ordered.

”Yes!” The man standing nearby ran away at once.

Shen Xinmei immediately softened her legs and sat on the chair. She looked at everything in front of her. Her eyes were a little desperate. Her hands pulled the handkerchief tightly, and her nails were pulled to the meat and bled.

The jade mining minister looked at several attendants in front of him and couldn't expose his anger. ”Useless guys, each reward 50 big boards. Go and get the reward!”

”Yes, thank you!” Several attendants looked at the housekeeper with complex expressions, and no one dared to beg for mercy again!

Suddenly a guard rushed in, ”my Lord, it's not good!”

”What's so flustered!” The jade mining minister asked solemnly.

”Aunt Liu hanged herself yesterday. Just now the slaves found her!” The visitor dared not look at the angry jade mining minister and said tremblingly.

Yu caichen was so angry that he kicked the chair beside Shen Xinmei, and then turned to the house where Aunt Liu committed suicide.

Shen Xinmei was very frightened. She didn't breathe until the figure of the mining minister disappeared.
