As soon as she said this, Su Liuyue looked at her with sarcasm in her eyes.
Obviously, Zheng Jinyu was in a state of panic.
Zhou Yan was smart, she immediately looked up at her, trying to suppress the anger in her voice and said, "Yujun only wrote the three words 'Lotus Appreciation Banquet' on the note, it didn't say anything specific about it, and didn't mention you at all.
How can you be so sure that Yujun is talking about the girls having abdominal pains? "
Isn't this a clear confession? !
Zheng Jinyu's eyes suddenly widened, and he was so flustered that he was almost numb.
Song Nianrou looked at Zheng Jinyu, frowned as if she couldn't bear it, and said, "It's normal for Jinyu to think this way. After all, a few days ago, many people have been saying that the incident at the Lotus Appreciation Banquet was related to Jinyu. Jinyu's reaction now doesn't mean anything..."
"Yup!"
Sancho also said quickly: "We have only been in the villa for half a day, and those people come to Jinyu from time to time to say a few sarcastic words, and even set up obstacles for Jinyu! If Jinyu hadn't been smart, she would have fallen into their trap long ago!
Jinyu was still talking to us this morning, who leaked this matter..."
Having said this, she suddenly realized that she had let the cat out of the bag, so she covered her mouth with her hand and looked at Zheng Jinyu with some panic.
There was a strange silence in the room for a moment.
Finally, it was Su Liuyue's voice that broke the silence. She looked at Zhou Yan and said, "When and where in the room did you find that note?"
Zhou Yan took a deep breath and said, "I found it on the ground next to the window of our room. I found the note around 3 p.m. My maid was the first to find it. Someone must have thrown it in from the window. However, we don't know when the note appeared..."
It’s Shen time again!
Su Liuyue asked again: "You saw at a glance that the note Miss Sang received was not written by Miss Ye. Then can you tell whether the note you received was written by Miss Ye?"
Zhou Yan was silent for a moment, shook her head and said in a hoarse voice: "There are only five words written on my note, and those five words look similar to what Yujun wrote..."
This means that those five words were most likely written by Ye Yujun himself.
But it is also possible that the writer knew that Zhou Yan was very familiar with Ye Yujun and was worried about writing more and making more mistakes, so he only wrote five words.
Su Liuyue pondered for a moment and asked, "So, you suspect that Miss Zheng Wu thought it was Miss Ye who leaked the incident at the Lotus Appreciation Banquet and wanted to harm Miss Ye. Miss Ye noticed something and wrote this note to you for help?"
Zheng Jinyu immediately looked at Su Liuyue with a pale face.
Zhou Yan's face turned hateful again, and she said, "Yes, that's right! There were signs of this a long time ago, right? Miss Zheng Wu didn't believe Yu Jun at all! I was very worried after receiving the note, and wanted to ask Yu Jun in person what was going on, but when I went to Yu Jun's room, I happened to see Miss Zheng Wu's maids coming out, and I heard them say that Yu Jun went to the courtyard, so I put the matter aside for the time being and went to find Doctor Chang first.
I was originally thinking of finding an opportunity to chat with Yujun at the dinner, but… I was still too late…"
"Absurd! Ridiculous!"
Zheng Jinyu quickly found an opportunity to scream, "Indeed...indeed, some people secretly said that I instructed Yujun to give those girls the problematic fruit wine, so they couldn't perform on stage, but this incident itself was an accident! They have no evidence to prove that this was...I instructed Yujun to do it...
I never thought that it was Yujun who spread these rumors! How could I possibly harm her! Someone is framing me!" Su Liuyue couldn't help but sneer.
Zheng Jinyu's psychological quality is still good. Even at this time, she still refuses to admit that she did what happened at the lotus viewing banquet.
But everyone has a scale in their hearts. Everyone present today actually knows who did this. Although this incident is bad, it is far from the level of murder and robbery, and no one will spend so much energy to prove that she is the culprit of the incident.
Zhou Yan was obviously very angry that she still refused to admit it. She glared at her and was about to say something, but Su Liuyue raised her hand and said, "Okay, I already understand the general situation.
Miss Zhou, could you please bring the note and the powder inside to us later?
Next..."
Su Liuyue wanted to ask Zheng Jinyu next, but seeing that she looked dazed and obviously suffered a great shock, she paused and turned to Song Nianrou.
However, questioning Song Nianrou and Zheng Jinyu did not reveal any useful clues.
Song Nianrou said that after she came back from lunch, she went to Zheng Jinyu's room with Sancho to sit for a while, and then went back to her own room to rest. Because she had some mysophobia and didn't want to change into the next day's clothes so quickly, she didn't change clothes. She just rested for a while and then went to stroll around the villa.
While strolling in the villa, her maid followed her all the time. She only asked her to go back to get some water once because she was thirsty.
Zheng Jinyu said that she stayed in the room because she was in a bad mood. Later, she felt bored and went to the back garden to relax at around 2:45 pm.
Because she was upset, she didn't let her maidservant follow her, so she acted alone during that period.
Finally, Su Liuyue went back to ask Zhou Yan about her whereabouts after that. Zhou Yan said that she first went to Doctor Chang to ask what the powder was. After that, she did not return to the room, but kept wandering in the back garden. During that time, her maid followed her all the time and never left.
After asking all the questions, Su Liuyue let them go.
Not long after they left the room, Princess Changxi came out from behind the screen with a livid face. She gritted her teeth and said in disbelief, "This is ridiculous! Although the backyard is complicated, it is outrageous that they would gather together to bully others and even use any shady means! Now, because of these things, a poor girl has been harmed to this extent. I don't even know if she can be saved!
All these bright and glamorous things are just deceptions!"
She had been living in the north before. Most of the women in the north were generous and open-minded. Even if there were one or two with narrow-minded and complicated minds, they would not cause any trouble.
She had heard before that the women in the capital city all had extraordinary means, and all kinds of secrets in the harem were endless. She had actually expected this, but the absurdity of the matter still far exceeded her imagination!
Aunt Mingyu, who was supporting her, gently stroked her back and sighed, "That's good. We will live in the capital for a long time in the future. We need to learn more about the situation in the capital so that we can know how to deal with it.
However, in this case, things seem very complicated. I was listening behind the screen just now, and my mind was really in a mess. I felt that everyone was suspicious, except... Miss Zhou, who seemed less suspicious.
Not to mention, this matter was even mixed up with the Lotus Appreciation Banquet. Why do I feel that those girls who were drugged at the Lotus Appreciation Banquet might also be the murderers of Miss Ye? "
Otherwise, Miss Zheng Wu and the others had done so many bad things, why did the incident at the lotus viewing banquet have to be brought up?
Su Liuyue glanced at Aunt Mingyu, raised the corner of her mouth, and said, "Aunt Mingyu thinks this case is complicated because you are being led by various clues and ignoring the most important point in the case."
Aunt Mingyu was startled and asked curiously, "What is it?" (End of this chapter)
