2079 There’s still one person who hasn’t appeared
yes! Gu Xin nodded her head, ” if you’re telling the truth, then what you’re saying is correct.
Man Zhu kowtowed,”Your Highness, this servant does not dare to lie.” Everything this servant said is true. It must be Song Yi who harmed our family’s young lady. Please, Your Highness, help our family’s young lady to seek justice!”
Gu Xin didn’t say a word. She looked at manzhu, who was kowtowing non-stop, and her mind was in a mess. But this girl was so honest that her head was bruised and there were blood stains on the ground. Gu Xin stood up and pulled her up.
“By the way, you said that your girl is going to give you a purse, so she must be confessing. Why is she wearing men’s clothes? Did she wear a man’s outfit on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year?” Gu Xin asked again.
“He’s wearing men’s clothes. She wore women’s clothes when she went out, and then we went to the shop to change. Every time the girl wanted to go out in men’s clothes, she would go to the shop to change. It’s our Xie family’s clothing shop.” Man Zhu explained.
“Do you remember what her purse looked like? Is there anything in the pouch?” Gu Xin asked again.
“The embroidery on the lotus bag is black bamboo. Young master Song likes bamboo. The fabric at the bottom was light blue. Young lady did not put anything in her purse.” Man Zhu said.
“Yes, I know. Let’s call it a day! I’ll go take a look at the bottom of the well.” Gu Xin had a rough idea in her heart.
This color scheme doesn’t look very good!
“Princess Xinxin!” Seeing that she was finished, manzhu hurriedly pulled her back.
Gu Xin lowered her head and looked at her hand.
“This servant was too impetuous!” Manzhu quickly released her hand. please forgive me, Princess! This servant just wants to know when Princess will go and capture Song Yi!”
“Miss manzhu, only you know about this matter, and you also don’t let me tell anyone else. I have to arrest Song Yi with a crime! He had just said that on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, he had been at the Academy during the day and had returned home after school. He had even told his mother that the sick daughter of the ye family next door had made it through. If he takes away your family’s girl at the time you mentioned when she leaves the sanhong Academy, he won’t be able to come back to know that the ye family’s daughter has made it through, and he won’t be able to inform his mother. This ye family member can testify for him.” Gu Xin said.
“But, he could have hidden our family’s young lady first, then come back to do these things, and then go to the place where he hid her to harm our family’s young lady!” Manzhu said anxiously.
“Where’s the evidence? When the Yamen handles a case, they need evidence.” Gu Xin said.
“Then, then Zhenzhen …” Manzhu was anxious, and suddenly an idea flashed in her mind.”He clearly knows our girl, but when he asked about the situation at the Yamen, he lied and said he didn’t know her. He’s feeling guilty, which means there’s definitely something wrong with him.”
Gu Xin raised her eyebrows. She had thought of this question as well, but she did not plan to ask Song Yi tonight. She already felt that the mother and son next door were hiding something from her and she planned to get second Bai to send someone to keep an eye on them.
“Lady manzhu, I understand your feelings. Don’t worry, if it’s him, he won’t be able to escape. We have our own way of doing things here. You just need to tell us everything you know.” Gu Xin said.
Man Zhu pursed her lips and did not dare to stop Gu Xin anymore.
She followed Gu Xin out of the room. Madam Xie had returned to her usual self, sitting in front of miss Xie’s coffin in a daze, as if she had lost her soul. Master Xie was talking to someone who looked like a butler outside, probably to arrange for miss Xie’s funeral.
