Chapter 121: House Fight

The two maids stuck their heads to the ground, not daring to say any more.

Yu Tianyi's expression was sluggish, as if he had lost his soul, he didn't defend himself, he didn't look at the two maids, he only muttered Zhenyue's name in his mouth.

Shen Wansha was so angry that he jumped out and shouted, "Didn't you just see him kill someone, what dare you not say!" A few deeds of sale can still kill you, the young master guarantees your safety, hurry up! ”

The two maids trembled, their teeth chattered, and still no one spoke.

Lu Li understands very well that the deed of sale is in the hands of others, which is equivalent to the power of life and death in the hands of others, and it is normal for the two maids to be afraid. He thought about it for a while, and asked in a different way, "When you pushed the door in, what posture and expression did Yu Tianyi and Zhenyue have?" ”

Such a question is much easier to answer, Yu Zhi, who was sitting in the first seat, did not blame Lu Li for interjecting, but nodded with satisfaction, "You two answer truthfully." ”

Dongxue's gray lips trembled, "Madam...... Lying on the bed, motionless, covered in blood. ”

Ruxia hung his head and didn't dare to look at people, his voice was like a mosquito, "Uncle leaned on the bedpost, holding a dagger in his hand at his wife, and there was blood all over his body......"

Unless the two maids dared to lie under heavy pressure, such a confession showed that they did not see the process of Yu Tianyi's killing, that is, they could not be sure that Zhenyue was killed by Yu Tianyi.

Lu Li asked Shen Wansha, "When you came in, did you see Yu Tianyi's killing action?" ”

Shen Wansha recalled that when he came, he heard screams coming from the room, and when he hurriedly entered, he found Zhenyue lying on the bed covered in blood, and Yu Tianyi was sitting, with the blood-dripping dagger in his hand facing Zhenyue's direction......

"No," he frowned, "butβ€”"

Lu Li waved his hand to block his words, evidence is needed to judge the case, and it is useless to guess. Shen Wansha is now in the excited moment of his family, his emotions are greater than his reason, and he needs to be calm.

He looked at Yu Zhi, who was sitting on the top, Yu Zhi didn't speak, just looked at him with encouraging eyes, and motioned for him to continue asking. Wang Liang, who was standing behind Yu Zhi, pouted and grimaced at him, with a threatening look of 'if you dare to embarrass Grandpa Yu, you will die'.

Lu Li smiled bitterly and turned his head to meet Zhao Shu's eyes.

Those handsome and slender eyes are dark and deep, like ink dyeing, containing layers of hidden meanings that others can't see, so deep and so straightforward.

Zhao Zhu will always support him, and there is no reason.

Somehow, Lu Li's heart was settled all of a sudden.

He was nervous before, for fear that there would be some mistakes or omissions in the case, but if he wanted to help Shen Wansha, he couldn't be too stressed, let it flow and calm down or see more things.

He calmed down, "You said you banged the door to get into the room...... Knowing that the door was bolted from the inside, why not try the window? ”

The two maids looked a little confused, looked at each other, and then woke up, with a look of regret that 'yes, why didn't you think of the window'.

"We ...... I was in a hurry and forgot ......"

Lu Li observed the expressions of the two, "When Zhenyue came back, she said that she was uncomfortable and wanted to rest, who was serving at that time?" ”

Dongxue saluted, "It's a servant." ”

"What have you done? Can you make the bed, pour tea, comb your hair, etc.? ”

"Just refilled a pot of hot water. The wife said that she was uncomfortable and didn't want to see others, so she kicked the maid out and closed the door. ”

"When Yu Tianyi came back, who stepped forward to serve?"

Ruxia salute, "Today's maid and Sister Dongxue are on duty, and when the wife comes back, the maid goes to take embroidery samples, and then it has been there, when the uncle comes back, the slave and maid come forward to serve together." ”

Lu Li nodded and asked Dongxue, "When I came, I saw you kneeling in the room, were you scared?" Where did Ruxia go then? ”

Dongxue's gray lips trembled, "Yes, the maid is very scared, the maid is the wife's companion, and the wife goes to the maid and I don't know what to do......"

Ruxia also replied carefully, "After discovering that something was wrong, Sister Dongxue was guarding the room, and the maid immediately went to the main room to ask the old lady to ......."

Shen Wansha said that he could testify to this, "The old lady of the Yu family came quickly, and before I started beating Yu Tianyi, the old lady came with her little feet." ”

Du slammed the table, "What are you talking about!" Even if you are from the county lord's mansion, you shouldn't be so rude! ”

Shen Wansha rolled her eyes and took care of her lazily.

After Lu Li asked the maid, he asked Yu Tianyi again, "You said that you heard screaming when you woke up, did you hear the scream first and be woken up, or did you wake up and realize that someone was screaming?" ”

Yu Tianyi thought for a while, "I woke up first, and then I heard the scream." ”

"You said that when you woke up, Zhenyue was dead and covered in blood...... So you sat up in fright? How did you get the dagger in your hand? ”

Yu Tianyi shook his head, "When my consciousness came back from my sleep, I was covered in blood in front of me, and I was suddenly startled, I subconsciously retreated, but I found that I couldn't retreat, I was sitting against the bedpost, dagger ...... It's in my hands. ”

"That is, you sleep lying down and wake up sitting?"

Yu Tianyi's voice was bitter, "That's true, it's impossible for me to sit and sleep, I can't sleep." ”

When asked this, although Yu Tianyi was still suspected of murder, his suspicion had dropped a lot, and Shen Wansha's face was calm and very unhappy. Lu Li gave him a 'calm and impatient' look at the right time, comforted him a little, and then continued to ask.

"Your husband and wife came back one after another, one was unwell, the other drank too much wine at noon, and they didn't look like they were in a good mood, where did you two use lunch for?"

"In ...... My mother's yard. Yu Tianyi's eyes were gloomy.

Du Shi almost dropped the teacup in his hand, "Are you accusing me!" ”

Yu Tianyi's voice was low and bitter, "If it weren't for the mother's compulsion, Yue'er wouldn't ......have thought about it."

"You son of a wret;!" Du Shi is going to sprinkle again.

Lu Li hurriedly stopped and raised his voice, "Who will tell me about this lunch?" ”

There was silence in the room, and no one stepped forward.

Lu Li casually pointed to someone, "You come on." ”

Luo's body, which was pointed at, shrank significantly, and looked at her husband Yu Tianhua, who had a calm face and did not say a word.

Lu Li reminded with a light smile, "Remember, the sky is above, Mr. Yu is in the hall, the authority of the law is inviolable, and you have to tell the truth when you ask about supply and demand." ”

Roche bit his lip and looked at everyone's expressions...... No one wants to do it for her. In the end, she had no choice but to say it.

"Today is a day for the family to eat together, and everyone gathers in the main courtyard of my mother-in-law. Because Gua Ge'er was sick, she couldn't accompany her mother-in-law for the past two days, and her mother-in-law was a little ...... Not very happy. ”

Luo Shi quietly glanced at Du Shi's face, Du Shi snorted coldly, and did not refute it, obviously not wanting to pursue Luo Shi for offense.

She didn't get angry, so Luo Shi relieved her heart, "After the catastrophe of the previous dynasty, the Yu family's bloodline is scarce, and the next generation of our family is only one man, Gua Ge'er, and the mother-in-law is anxious, so she can't help but mention the child." The eldest brother is the eldest brother, although there are few children, and there is a melon brother, but I ...... It's useless, after three years of marriage, I haven't been able to add a boy and a half girl to my husband, and it's normal for my mother-in-law to be unhappy. ”

Luo looked at Du Shi's expression, "I have always ...... The tip of the pinch should be strong, and the temperament is not good, and the whole family knows it. My mother-in-law said that I, I am convinced, but in front of the whole family, I don't want to lose face, so I said that the family inheritance has always come to see the long house, although I have not given birth now, but it will not matter for two years later, I really can't choose a good concubine for my husband, but the eldest brother is different, shouldering my reputation in the family for a hundred years, I must spread the branches and leaves, and have many sons and blessings......"

After hearing this, the mother-in-law told her sister-in-law that Gua Ge'er was five years old and had already opened her studies, and it was time to give birth to one. Sister-in-law...... didn't respond, and the mother-in-law said that it didn't matter if the sister-in-law didn't want to work hard, just stop taking care of the eldest brother and put a few more concubines in the big house, and called Aunt Zhong to her side and told her to give birth to the Yu family. Aunt Zhong...... replied with a red face, saying that she has been an uncle's slave all her life, as long as the uncle is willing, she can do anything. ”

When Luo said this, Zhong Shi, who was standing beside Du Shi, blushed all of a sudden, stirred his handkerchief and hung his head, looking like an honest man who was very embarrassed but didn't know how to react.

Du Shi glanced at Roche, patted Zhong's hand, and simply interjected himself, "Is what I said wrong?" I just want to have more grandchildren, and I think so all over the world, what is wrong! That Zhenyue looks like a fox, and she knows that she is hooking a man, if she hadn't married her, she would have to eat, drink and spend, how could a good seedling like Tianyi not want to make progress and give up scientific research, but started a business! Doing business is money, you can buy things that others can't buy, and enjoy the wealth that others can't enjoy. What was Tianyi like before he didn't donate an official, and what is it like now! However, as soon as he is dismissed, he can be so convenient, if he becomes a big official and goes to the court, what kind of future will he have! A cheap embryo with long hair and short knowledge, the big makeup is not better than yellow and white vulgar things! ”

Hearing her scold Zhenyue, Yu Tianyi couldn't bear it, "Mother...... Yue'er is gone, don't talk about her anymore......"

"Phew! What you do is not allowed to be said by others! As soon as you arrived in the capital, you fell in love with her, I heard that she was the daughter of the county lord, so she should go down to this family, who knew that she was just an adulterous son with an unknown father, if it wasn't for the county lord's kindness, how could she grow up! People's hearts are separated from their stomachs, and relatives are separated from each other, even if the county lord raises her, how can she be raised like his own daughter? If she hadn't been pregnant and gave birth to a boy, I would have let you divorce her! ”

"Mother......

"Shout what shout reads;! She is a fox and a domineering husband, she is not filial to your mother, she refuses to spread her branches, she is not friendly and lovely, she is jealous and does not allow you to take a concubine, she is delicate and sickly, you count how many she committed! Du Shiqi's heart was beating.

Zhong Shi hurriedly brought tea over to serve her and drank it, slowly patted her back and smoothed her breath, after a while, Du's love improved, and he looked at Zhong Shi with satisfaction, "Wife and wife, it's better for you to have a room!" Then she turned her head and said to Yu Tianyi, "How good the Zhong family is, gentle and indisputable, obedient and filial, caring and courteous to Gua Ge'er, and never overstepping the rules...... Why don't you grow a snack! ”

Yu Tianyi glanced at Zhong's, and his gaze fell indifferently, "Yue'er is very good......

After the complaint, the hall was quiet again.

Lu Li continued to ask Roche, "What happened later?" ”

Luo Shi stirred the handkerchief and reluctantly continued, "The mother-in-law just wanted to persuade the sister-in-law to add another child to the eldest brother, but before the sister-in-law could speak, the eldest brother stepped forward to protect her, saying that she couldn't bear the pain of childbirth for the sister-in-law again, and there would only be one son in this life...... The mother-in-law was even more angry, pointing at the sister-in-law and scolding, asking her to admit her mistakes, the sister-in-law said that the children are blessed, come and go with fate, it is not good to force it, the mother-in-law is so angry that she almost faints, and the eldest brother is useless no matter how much she pleads, so she speaks to let the sister-in-law stand in order. The sister-in-law responded, how did she know that when she just stood for tea, she was faint and dizzy, and the eldest brother was distressed, so he immediately asked the sister-in-law to come back first, and the mother-in-law couldn't say anything, and went back to the back hall without eating......"

While Luo was speaking, Lu Li kept paying attention to the expression of the Yu family, "What about after that?" Where did Yu Tianyi's wine be drunk? ”

"In ...... Our yard. Luo glanced at Yu Tianhua, "The eldest brother was depressed in his heart, so he pulled my husband to drink, and in the end, the eldest brother drank a little too much, but he was not too drunk, so he didn't let us send him off, and went back alone." ”

Luo was very careful with his words when he spoke, probably because he was worried that Du Shi or her husband would not like it, but it was difficult to hide a person's feelings when he spoke, Lu Li clearly saw that she was a little unhappy at the beginning, and then it was obvious that it was not a big deal to see the excitement, but in the end, she was a little aggrieved.

It's all over, what is she wronged?

Lu Li looked carefully and found that Luo's eyes were a little red and swollen, as if he had cried, and he covered them with fat powder. Listening to her words, she and Zhenyue are not on good terms, and when she saw Zhenyue dead in the room just now, she was more frightened than sad. Only Yu Tianyi cried in the Yu family, this Luo didn't have any tears at all, and even if she cried, she should let others see how sensible she was with red and swollen eyes, how much she missed the deceased, and what to do with makeup? And where is the time to make up in this emergency?

From this suspicion, Lu Li looked at Luo twice, and soon found that her wrist was also a little red and swollen.

He immediately asked, "What's the matter with your hands?" ”

Luo's eyes were a little flustered, and he subconsciously glanced at her husband Yu Tianhua, "No, I accidentally bumped into ......"

"Is itβ€”" Lu Li's voice was elongated, and his eyes were very oppressive.

Yu Tianhua stood up and said with a cold face, "I pushed her, and she accidentally bumped into her." ”

"Oh?" Lu Li raised his eyebrows, "Why are you pushing her?" ”

Yu Tianhua looked at Luo Zhi with some reproach, "Luo is from a small family, he doesn't understand the rules, and he is always strong. The eldest sister-in-law is virtuous and virtuous, she is pregnant when she enters the door, and she is born to the eldest grandson of the family, and she has done everything very well, and she should not be harshly criticized at all. It is necessary to know that the woman married someone else, and it was wrong to have no children, my mother was picky, and it was only a bad mood for a while, Luo should admit her mistake and endure it, but she was full of anger, and she made provocative remarks, and passed on my mother's anger, and finally made a lot of trouble for the whole family to eat badly, and the atmosphere was bad, if she was sensible, why not! I said two words to her, and she refused to admit her mistake, but I just gave her a gentle push, and she fell to the table by herself, so scheming is really hateful;! ”

Lu Li looked at the expressions of the two of them, his eyes shimmered, and he seemed to mean something, "It's really not good to be too scheming." ”

"That's it!" Yu Tianhua seemed to be angry, and looked at Luo Che with disgust, "I have endured it for three years after entering the door and have not been pregnant, and I have not given you face without taking a concubine, but you don't know how to introspect, you have been bitter and mean from beginning to end, and you really don't give me a long face at all!" ”

Luo was quite obedient before, and she didn't know where Yu Tianhua's words annoyed her, she suddenly jumped out and scolded, "Yu Tianhua, you bastard!" Don't you know why the old lady is not pregnant! Is it interesting to be confused with understanding! How about the old lady alone-"

"That's it!" Du Shi suddenly slapped the table, and his gloomy gaze swept over, "This is a place for you to quarrel!" Her voice was cold, and there seemed to be a clear threat to it.

Luo's body trembled, biting his lip and standing two steps back, no longer arguing with Yu Tianhua.

Yu Tianhua also frowned and stepped back, no longer speaking.

There was a long silence in the room.

Lu Li heard the dark tide surging in the preface, looked at this family, and made up the house fight drama at noon. In order to please Du Shi, Roche said it too lightly, but as long as he analyzed it before and after, he knew that there was a lot of trouble at noon.

Zhenyue lives in such an environment, which is really pitiful.

"Lunch is all about having children...... Didn't anyone notice that Zhenyue was pregnant? ”

Yu Tianyi's expression was lonely, "Yue'er...... I didn't say it, and I didn't even tell him. ”

Du Shi was the first to jump excitedly, "It's this fox who has the most scheming!" I was obviously pregnant, but I didn't say it, did I want to pretend to be a wicked person, how pitiful she was, or did I want to make me bow my head to her and admit my mistakes when I gave birth after suffering some hardship! ”

Luo's expression was not very good, but because of her husband's suppression before, she didn't dare to speak now.

Zhong comforted Du Shi, "The old lady is angry, and the wife may have other ideas......

"What thoughts, what can she think, my son is so good to her, she doesn't even say what I want! Could it be that this child is not mine, she has a weak heart! ”

When this sentence was shouted, it can be said that it stirred up a thousand waves, and Du Shi was more excited than ever as if he had found some gap, his eyes flashed, "It must be like this!" It must be this cheap embryo stealing people, she can't hide it in four or five months of pregnancy, and she commits suicide in fear of sin! ”

Shen Wansha couldn't help but jump out, "You let go of it!" How could Zhenyue do such a thing! ”

Yu Tianyi immediately knelt down towards Du Shi with a 'plop', and kowtowed vigorously, "Mother-mother!" You are your son's mother, Yue'er is gone, no matter how much she doesn't like you, she won't come back when she leaves, please be merciful, don't talk about her like that anymore, son...... The son can't stand it...... Yue'er, she is the best woman in the world, how can she ...... How can you steal ...... Do that kind of unclean thing! ”

He looked extremely excited, kowtowed with great strength, and after a while, his head broke and blood flowed, and his forehead was bruised and swollen.

Du Shi was stunned, and the veil hid his face and cried, "What did I do...... The mother and son who were harmed by a cheap embryo are not in harmony, and the house is restless......"

"Mother, please let Yue'er go!" Yu Tianyi still kowtowed.

Seeing this, Yu Tianhua also knelt down, "Mother, my sister-in-law has gone, the lights are out, if the reputation is not good, it is still our family, so I can't say it in the future......"

Du Shi couldn't, so he had to sigh and let his two sons get up and reads;.

"You ...... That's right, so be it. Her voice was infinitely old, and at this moment, it seemed that there were a few more gray hairs on her sideburns.

After saying the noon incident, the Yu family seemed to have exhausted their strength, and all of them looked depressed and did not look strong.

Lu Li asked the two maids on the side, "My wife is pregnant, but you don't even know it?" ”

The two glanced at each other, nodded with a complicated expression, and said in Dongxue, "Mrs. is not allowed to be small, sometimes she only comes once every two months, and the maid remembers that Mrs. came to be popular last month, but it was a little little, so I didn't care about it......"

Ruxia also nodded again and again in agreement, "My wife is in good health on weekdays, but she is taking medicine because of her daughter's illness, and she has not invited a doctor in recent months." ”

In other words, everyone in the Yu family, including Zhenyue's personal maid, didn't know that Zhenyue was pregnant.

This is not easy for a person who lives in a mansion and has someone to serve at all times. How did Zhenyue hide from so many people? Or is it ...... Does she have a helper at home?

The time is late, the evidence is insufficient, the suspect is not clear, and the confession without a specific direction will continue for a period of time, and the results cannot be obtained all at once. Seeing that Yu's family members were tired, and asking again might not bring positive information clues, Lu Li went over and discussed with Yu Zhi in a whisper for a while, and then turned around and said that this case is full of suspicions, and it is difficult to have a result for a while, everyone will disperse first, and tomorrow the government will send arresters to quickly cross the house to reconnoiter and collect evidence, please cooperate with Yu's family.

And because the signs of Zhenyue's death were obvious, the cause of death was clear, and the autopsy was clear, Lu Li thought that there was no need for autopsy for the time being, so he and Yu Zhi collected evidence around the deceased, and asked Yu's family to remove Zhenyue's body for later funeral.

Yu Zhi felt that it was a pity, he really wanted to see Lu Li's corpse dissecting skills with his own eyes.

The orders were passed down one by one, and the room was quickly emptied, but Lu Li stopped Dongxue and didn't let her leave. He wanted to inspect the scene, and Dongxue was the last person to see what the crime scene looked like when there was no blood.

There were two bangs outside, it was already the second watch, the room was burning with candles, and the jumping flames reflected an elongated figure in the window, rendering the room that had just died and smelled of blood even more terrifying.

Because there were too many people in the room before, Lu Li's observation was always interrupted, so before leaving, he wanted to take a closer look at the room.

While watching, he asked Dongxue, "Is the bedding on the bed something you've ever seen?" Can the refreshments on the table change, for example, can the tea become more or less? Is there anything in the room that has been moved? This window, this window...... Was it bolted before? ”

As a maid, Dongxue has a good memory, and answered Lu Li's questions one by one, even knowing that the window was closed tightly and bolted inside.

"My wife was in a bad mood at the time, and she didn't want to be disturbed, so she closed the doors and windows herself, and the maid heard the sound of the latch dropping with her own ears."

There are two windows in the bedroom, a small door leads to the main hall, the main hall faces the door that can enter and exit, there are three connected rooms on the west side of the main hall, each room has two windows, the only place to enter and exit is the door of the main hall, Lu Li walked to the side with the winter snow, and found that all the windows were bolted from the inside.

When Yu Tianyi came over, Zhenyue was alive and well, and after the two entered the room, the door was latched again, that is, at this time, all the doors and windows were bolted until the snow in winter and summer hit the door and came in.

So it's a secret room! If the murderer is not Yu Tianyi, how did the murderer come in and out to kill?
