Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Establishment of the House
Xu Xian frowned, carefully looking at the corpse lying on the ground, already blurred. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
He had seen dead bodies when he was a child, and he was watching from the side when his mother forced her pregnant concubine to death, so he didn't feel any discomfort when he looked at the corpse in front of him, which was already somewhat decomposed and smelled.
The onlookers were so frightened that their faces turned pale when they saw this, and they couldn't bear to look directly and wanted to know the inside story, so they avoided it from a distance, but their eyes were fixed on this side.
After looking at it for a while, Xu Xian stretched out his hand and pointed to the placket on the right side of the corpse: "Let's see if there's anything in there." ā
One of the two who had just fished the body out of the dry well walked out, squatted down and fiddled with the clothes, and found a token tied to the deceased's body.
Xu Xian's face was gloomy, that token was indeed Qian Jing's great contribution before, and he rewarded him, could it be that he was really dead?
The figure of this corpse is almost the same as Qian Jing, but when it is full, he has only been dead for a day, and it is not a hot day, why does the corpse decompose so quickly? And the most easily recognizable face is also already blurred with flesh and blood, which is really strange.
"Master Hou," one of the servants stepped forward, "the little one knows a thing or two about what he did, and it seems that this corpse has been sprinkled with a potion that can make it decay quickly after death, so he can't see the appearance clearly." ā
"Oh?" Xu Xian was surprised, "Is this potion common?"
The servant nodded: "Although it is not commonly used, the recipe is simple, and it is easy to match." ā
Xu Xian thought thoughtfully: "Even so, after his death, someone else disposed of the corpse, so it seems that Qian Jing did not accidentally fall into the well and died." As he spoke, he glanced at Mr. Feng.
When Staff Feng heard this, he was shocked into a cold sweat, and his brain suddenly ran extremely fast, and he hurriedly said, "Master Hou, this matter has nothing to do with the little one." If it is a small hand, ruining the face of Qian Jing must not be discovered by others, why would he personally report to the Hou Ye?
Xu Xian glanced at him and said lightly: "Okay, I didn't say anything, you look like a thief." Then he turned his head and instructed the two of them: "Bury Qian Jinghaosheng, and transfer the money from the account in the house." ā
Those two should be, Xu Xian nodded, and left.
Staff Feng was so angry that his teeth itched, what Hou Ye said didn't save him a little face. finally waited until Qian Jing died, but Hou Ye was still not salty or indifferent to him, which was really annoying.
ā¦ā¦
Even Jingqian also received a reply from Bai Ling, saying that everything had been taken care of, telling him to rest assured.
He put down the letter and walked to the window.
There was a light rain just half an hour ago, and the mood was much more relaxed with the weather.
After coming to Beijing, the only family he had contact with was one person, a person he trusted enough. From the time he started looking for clues in the secret room, he had already asked the man to help him leave a way out.
The corpse in the dry well is actually a death row prisoner in the prison who can't survive, he has been dead for several days, and the injuries he has suffered have been treated with medicine, as if they are rotting, and one of the two people who went to the autopsy was also sent by that person, so it is not difficult to hide Xu Xian and guide him to think that there are villains who deliberately killed him at this juncture.
This is also to make Xu Xian die, lest he disregard it and disrupt his plan.
He let out a long breath, and finally, he could leave the suffocating Hou Mansion.
Next, it's time to get in touch with the three princes. I don't know what happened to Xue Yiying.
ā¦ā¦
Yi Ying leaned on the kang and ate the plum cake slowly, her mind messed up.
She relented for a while and agreed to Lian Jingqian, but now that she thinks about it, she feels that this matter is really a headache.
Although she is not like an ordinary woman, she is relatively free to move, but she can't go straight to Li Yun's palace, she and Li Yun have only met three times, and they went rashly, not to mention that Li Yunhuan is not welcome, just the elders are very sad.
Li Yun contacted his father before, and his father thought that he had something with her, and if he went again this time, maybe what his mother and the queen mother would think......
If you enter the palace, although it is also convenient, who knows if she will meet Li Yun, this person, she sometimes feels that she can see through it, and sometimes she can't figure it out, but she doesn't dare to make a conclusion.
was worried, but saw Hexiang come in with a pot of flowers.
She put down the flowers, her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and she said to Yi Ying a little nervously: "County Lord, can you take the slave and maid out of the house tomorrow?"
Yi Ying was stunned: "Why do you want to leave the house tomorrow?"
"The county lord still doesn't know?" He Xiang was a little surprised, and then hurriedly said: "Sister Xu is Banyue hasn't had time to tell the county lord yet, the slave maid heard about it in the outer courtyard, saying that Princess Anyang's mansion has been built, and it seems that she is going to entertain guests tomorrow." ā
Yi Yingyixi: "Really?"
Hexiang nodded: "In detail, the county lord should ask the eldest princess, but this matter must be true." ā
Yiying listened and got off the kang and went to the upper room with lotus incense.
While walking, he secretly thought: How can I see Li Yun, there is a banquet, Anyang is Li Yun's sister, the relationship between the two is very good, and I will definitely go if I want to come. couldn't help but smile and shook his head, Lian Jingqian's luck is really good, what do you want.
"Mother, I heard that Cousin Anyang is going to hold a relocation banquet tomorrow?" Yiying walked in with a smile and asked with some anticipation.
The table in the room was full of all kinds of curiosities, Min Yuan was talking to Mother Wu, and when he saw her coming, he hurriedly beckoned her over: "It's just the right time, come, help Mother come up with an idea, what kind of relocation gift will you give your cousin?"
Yiying listened to it for a while, and said: "Cousin Jianfu, there must be no shortage of those large items of the screen and gauze cupboard, why not send some thoughtful and precious gadgets." ā
Min Yuan and Mother Wu glanced at each other, and the latter smiled: "The county lord is right, the old slave Fang Cai and the eldest princess also said the same, the princess's mansion is customized, and the most important thing that Princess Anyang lacks is those big things." ā
Min Yuan looked at her daughter, the more she looked, the more satisfied she became, although Yuan Yuan failed to receive guidance on etiquette when she was a child, but her knowledge was not bad at all, and she was repeatedly surprised.
"Then what do you say?" she smiled as she looked at her daughter.
Yi Ying thought for a while, pointed to a few of them, and said: "I heard that the future cousin-in-law is a highly talented reader, why don't you give this hundred beasts Duan inkstone and landscape brush wash to your cousin, plus this pair of nine jade rings with excellent color, it will probably be about the same." ā
The construction of Anyang is also for marriage, and the current gifts are actually no different from the new wedding, they are all the intentions and good intentions of the figure.
