Qi Liang put down the cup at this time and said: "The origin of Xue Feng'er is really strange. Today we visited her natal family and nearby neighbors and acquaintances. After careful inquiry, we found out that she is not a local, and her surname is not even Xue."

Xue Feng'er was the bride's full name. Pan Hong and others couldn't help being secretly surprised when they heard this, and quickly asked what was going on.

"According to people around, the old couple of the Xue family had no children at all, and they were the only ones who managed a tea stall outside the city to make a living. About three months ago, the old couple opened the door early in the morning and found a girl lying at the door, covered in blood.

She seemed to be dead, which frightened the old couple, but later they saw that the girl was not dead, so the old couple felt soft and took her back to their home to seek treatment from a doctor. After a check, the girl was fine.

, she suffered some trauma and was overworked. The doctor prescribed some medicine and the old couple took good care of her. The girl gradually recovered. As a result, the old couple asked her about her origins. The girl said that her surname was Li, originally Yi.

A native of Guangdong Province, her family fled to avoid the war. As a result, she was separated from her family after encountering robbers on the way, and she ended up living here. The old couple asked her if she had any relatives or friends to seek refuge with, but she said she had none. Seeing how pitiful she was, the old couple said,

He felt compassion and took her in."

"I have to say that this girl knows how to repay her kindness. After she recovered, she helped the old couple a lot. She was young, beautiful, and very capable. The tea stall business soon flourished. The old couple were very happy.

Because they had no children, they had the idea of ​​adopting the girl as their adopted daughter. Originally, they were afraid that the girl would disagree, but they didn't expect that she immediately agreed. From then on, they addressed the old couple as father and mother, and at the same time changed their surname from Li to Yi.

My father's Xue, even the name Feng'er was changed after the fact. As a result, not long after she became a servant of the old couple, she met Mr. Wang and fell in love with him at first sight when he went out to the city to hunt, and this led to what happened later."

Yuan Fei, Pan Hong and others were secretly surprised when they heard this. No one expected that there was such a complicated process. And if the bride really fled from Yizhou, she might be the same as Luo Tianbao.

She had any grudge against the rebel army, which explains why she wanted to frame Luo Tianbao. It can be said that the information Qi Liang obtained was quite important, but Pan Hong was still a little worried and asked: "Fifth Master, you asked about it

Are these reports accurate?"

"You can't be wrong. This matter is so bizarre that almost everyone in the area knows about it. I also specially found the doctor who treated Xue Feng'er. He also confirmed that it was true. After Xue Feng'er recovered from his injury, he even came to his door to see him.

He thanked me and gave me a lot of snacks, so he remembered it very clearly."

Pan Hong couldn't help frowning when he heard this: "It seems that this third lady is indeed suspicious."

Yuan Fei stood up impatiently after hearing this: "I'm going to find the bride right away. I don't believe she won't tell the truth with a knife on her neck!"

Pan, Qi and others heard this and hurriedly stood up to stop him: "Master Yuan, can you please stop doing this? If you really do that, it will only make things worse."

"Then what do you think we should do?"

Pan Hong thought for a moment: "I think this Third Lady came well prepared and was protected by the Wang family. I'm afraid it won't be easy to open a gap in her. Why don't we start with the people around her? Such a large-scale layout is definitely not hers."

One person can do it.”

When everyone heard that what Pan Hong said was reasonable, they immediately went to investigate. The results were obtained that night. First, Yuan Fei ran back excitedly and said to everyone: "We have investigated it. I, Old Yuan, have to take action on this kind of thing."

"How do you say that?" Everyone couldn't help but get excited after hearing this.

"Didn't you ask me to check the maids around the bride? As a result, I saw a girl named Mei Xiang in the bride's room and a stranger meeting at the back door of the palace in the afternoon. The two of them were talking about something secretly there. I was

I didn't alert them. After they broke up, I blocked the man in an alley. The boy was quite fierce and dared to attack me. I gave him a lesson at that time, and he ended up throwing everything away.

Everything has been done."

Everyone couldn't help but smile knowingly when they heard this, secretly thinking that Yuan Fei was such a fierce person, and that person who dared to mess with him was asking for trouble. At that time, Pan Hong couldn't help asking: "What on earth is going on?"

"As we thought, it was Xue Feng'er and Wang Shichen who framed Brother Tianbao. That man was the one who brought Brother Tianbao to the garden that day. He and Mei Xiang were lovers, and it was Mei Xiang who helped bridge the matter. Afterwards,

Xue Feng'er gave the man one hundred taels of silver as a reward, and asked him to flee to another place first and come back when the limelight had passed. As a result, the man failed to live up to expectations and was a gambler. He lost the money at the gambling table in the blink of an eye.

Unwilling to do so, I came back to Mei Xiang to try to blackmail her again, but I just caught up with her."

"I see. Then did he tell Xue Feng'er and others why they wanted to frame my young master?"

"Asked, Xue Feng'er and the others originally asked this man not to inquire about this matter, but Mei Xiang told him in private, saying that the reason why Wang Shichen got involved in this matter was because he and Xue Feng'er were not clear about it, so he had no choice but to do it.

Xue Feng'er seems to want to avenge her brother, but Mei Xiang doesn't know the details."

Pan Hong couldn't help but be startled when he heard this. Now the situation was very clear, but he remembered how Luo Tianbao had become enemies with Xue Feng'er's brother and sister. But this was not surprising. Luo Tianbao had led the army in the war in the past six months, and too many people died because of him.

, maybe someone was offended because of this, but it seems that these evidences alone are not enough at the moment. Thinking of this, Pan Hong couldn't help but turned around and asked Yuan Fei: "Where is that person now?"

"I originally wanted to bring him back, but then I thought it would be troublesome if someone from the old Wang family found out, so I tied him up and threw him into a pile of junk in a nearby alley."

Pan Hong nodded when he heard this: "That's good. Let's go find this person again and think of ways to see if we can lure the snake out of its hole."

"Leading a snake out of its hole?" Yuan, Qi and others couldn't help but look at each other in confusion, not understanding what Pan Hong was trying to do.

The night is getting deeper, and Xue Feng'er's room is still brightly lit. After what happened last time, she now doesn't dare to stay in a dark room, so the room is full of lights at night. Her adoptive mother is sitting at the table, dozing off.

Xue Feng'er, on the other hand, was lying on the bed and seemed to have fallen asleep.

Suddenly the door was gently pushed open, and the maid Mei Xiang stepped in. She saw that Xue Feng'er was sleeping soundly and did not disturb her. She gently came to Xue Feng'er's adoptive mother and shook her awake.

"Old madam, it is enough for us servants to accompany you here. You can go back to your house and rest first."

Mrs. Xue was really tired, so she left with a few words of warning. As soon as she left the room, Mei Xiang quickly came to the bedside: "Third Madam."

After hearing these words, Xue Feng'er, who was sleeping soundly, immediately opened her eyes, turned over and sat up. At this moment, her face was completely gone from the fear and helplessness during the day, replaced by a fierce and vicious one, and she felt as if she had completely changed.

one person.

"What did Liu San say?"

"He said he had to ask for another hundred taels, otherwise he would make the matter public."

"It's you who are scoundrels. Whoever you introduced at the beginning has caused so much trouble now."
