The scene fell into an eerie silence.

The two could hear each other's breathing.

"Speak clearly!"

Xu Mingxi returned to Xu Baiyu and stared at her fiercely:

"What do you mean my mother killed Xu Xinyue's mother?"

"My mother would never do such a thing!"

Xu Baiyu laughed so hard that tears came out of his eyes: "Hahahahaha, Xu Mingxi, you are the only one who thinks your mother is a 'kind mother'."

"If she wasn't your mother, do you think she was a good person?"

"She killed Xu Xinyue's mother and harmed my mother!"

Xu Baiyu roared without caring about his image, venting all the anger in his chest.

Xu Mingxi was silent for a few breaths, "What evidence do you have?"

"Ha, evidence? Why do you think I can stay in Xu's house despite my reputation? Xu Guanghai is such a ruthless person, he would have killed me or put me on the farm. Why did he keep me in Xu's house?"

"Of course it's because I know the secret that Yang killed Xue. I said that as soon as I die, the contact outside will spread the news immediately, and Xu Xinyue will know it soon.

In the past, Xu Xinyue was alone, or she had a father who supported the Xu family. In order to prevent this cash cow from being shaken, she kept it a secret until now. It was my mother who kept the secret."

"But later Xu Yuanshan passed away, and the eldest wife had nothing to fear, so my mother was brutally murdered by you without any care!"

"Who would have thought that Xu Xinyue would be so ambitious and climb up the tree of Rong Wangfu again. Yang Shi is uneasy again. My chance has come again. I have taken the last secret left by my mother before her death and have been mediating with Yang Shi until now!!"

"Xu Mingxi, do you really think your mother is a good person? Can't you see it when she wanted to sacrifice my mother's reputation to save herself?"

"Shut up! I was the one who came up with that idea! It has nothing to do with my mother!"

Xu Baiyu was stunned, and stared at Xu Mingxi with sinister eyes: "You are not a good person either!"

Xu Mingxi said, "One is willing to fight, the other is willing to be beaten. There is more than one concubine in the mansion, why is it that only your mother is willing to fall for it?"

"Xu Mingxi, you are shameless!!" Xu Baiyu was enraged by her words and shook the iron bars vigorously.

No matter how hard she tried, the iron rods as thick as her forearms did not move at all.

Xu Mingxi was fearless and took a step forward and continued, "So, it was you who told Xu Xinyue?"

“Yes, it’s me!!”

At this point, we have reached a point where there is nothing left to hide.

"You want to take advantage of her power? So, in fact, it's not unfair for you to be imprisoned here."

"Your mother caused my mother to die so tragically. This is retaliation for retaliation!! Life for life!"

"I originally wanted to achieve my goal quietly and leave this place!"

Xu Mingxi nodded: "So, you are the mastermind, and Xu Xinyue is the accomplice?"

Xu Baiyu was so angry that he almost exploded: "It's all her fault!! I never did it!"

"Xu Baiyu, do you think I will believe you? Qin Yuechuan and Xu Xinyue have been assassinated and their whereabouts are unknown. Maybe they are willing to make plans for you, but who else could have done it except you?!"

"The hairpin is yours. You are the only one in the mansion who knows about mother's actions. You are also the one who is not in Puji Temple. The clothes were also dug out from your yard. You were running away when we found you. If you were not guilty, why did you run away?!"

"Perhaps Xu Xinyue is also involved. You can only tip off the matter. After all, she and even Prince Rong's Mansion have had no dealings with the Xu Mansion recently."

"Also, when the two of them were assassinated, who else could have been there except you? And you just happened to be out of sight."

Xu Baiyu was speechless.

Xu Mingxi snorted twice: "They were the waiters of the inn where you stayed. I took your portrait and asked them if they had seen you that night, and they said no. And I heard that you ordered that they should not be disturbed unless summoned.

The guy said there was even a period of time when only the maid came in and out. Where were you during that time?"

Xu Baiyu gritted his teeth and said, "I will stay in the house. Qiu Lian went to negotiate with them. Besides, I brought Mi Li with me, so how could they--"

"So what you mean is that no one knows who is under Mi Li, right?"

Xu Baiyu could no longer bear it. She couldn't tell whether Xu Mingxi was smart or stupid. "Do you think your analysis is reasonable and the evidence is solid?"

Xu Mingxi said calmly: "Otherwise, you can refute it."

"That dress is not mine!"

"Why are you in your courtyard?"

"how could I know!!!"

"You don't know this, you don't know that, what else do you know!!"

"I do not know anything!!"

Xu Baiyu was so angry that he felt dizzy and roared.

She hated Xu Xinyue so much at this moment. Xu Mingxi's questioning really left her speechless!

Is this the result Xu Xinyue wanted?

What a great game of chess!

Xu Mingxi was tired and had no intention of arguing with her any further. He felt that talking to her here was nothing but a waste of time.

"If you take part of the blame, I think what you said is still somewhat credible, but you put all the blame on a missing person, which makes me doubt your intentions. I think you will also say you don't know about the matter between Prince Rong and Princess Rong. In this case, there is no need for me to stay."

Xu Mingxi no longer looked at Xu Baiyu's expression, and decisively turned around and left the prison, leaving Xu Baiyu alone shouting:

"Xu Mingxi, you idiot!!"

As the prison door closed, Xu Baiyu's insults gradually disappeared.

Xu Mingxi's eyes were deep. Although he didn't know how much truth there was in Xu Baiyu's words, one thing was certain: Xu Xinyue should have been involved.

However, it is still unknown where she is now, and on the surface, she seems to have nothing to do with the Xu family.

I couldn't find any clue at all.

How did she do it?

*

Xu Xinyue was awakened by the aroma of roast chicken.

The sizzling aroma of grease and the fragrance of fruit entered her nostrils. Before she even opened her eyes, she followed the smell, put on her shoes, and got down to bed. She couldn't help but say, "What a nice smell!"

Qin Yuechuan looked back and saw that she looked confused and had just woken up. He couldn't help but say:

"It does smell good. Although my sleepiness hasn't yet woken up, my appetite has."

Xu Xinyue squatted beside him, pulling his sleeve, staring at the tempting roast chicken and asked:

"How much longer?"

"It's almost time. It will take about an incense stick of time."
