Chapter 137: Storming the Storm (2nd Watch)
After opening Zhu's mother, Mu Yan immediately attracted Tao Hong, and asked in a low voice, "Do you have something to say to me?" ”
Taohong glanced left and right twice, then carefully took out something from her sleeve and slowly handed it to Mu Yan.
"The slave maid walked around at the door of the firewood room without anything, but I didn't expect to find this under the window, take a look......"
Mu Yan took the thing in Taohong's hand and took a look, it was a piece of mutton fat jade, the jade quality was very delicate and translucent, and it was a good jade at a glance.
Her fingertips rubbed the jade cloud Baifu pattern, and she was a little excited.
She had touched this jade pendant several times in her previous life, and the patterns and textures on it were all too familiar.
She was sure that it was Mu Chaoyang's thing.
In his previous life, Mu Chaoyang often wore it.
How could Mu Chaoyang go to the firewood house?
Don't?
Mu Yan didn't dare to think about it.
Although she experienced Mu Chaoyang's betrayal of her in her previous life, and also saw Mu Chaoyang's indifference, Mu Chaoyang's nature is not bad, he should not kill people......
But if the person was not killed by him, why did the jade pendant be thrown at the scene?
Taohong didn't know that this thing belonged to Mu Chaoyang, but she knew by looking at the jade quality that it must not be a vulgar thing, it must be the brother or the master in the house.
And this thing happened to appear under the window of the firewood room, so this shows that it is likely that Si Qin did not commit suicide but killed him, and the murderer who killed Si Qin is likely to be the owner of this jade pendant.
Peach was terrified when she thought about it, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and whispered, "How can you say that this kind of thing can appear under the window of the firewood room?" ”
Mu Yan didn't speak, she frowned and looked at the jade pendant in her palm, and looked at it for a long time.
She still didn't believe that Mu Chaoyang would kill.
"Girl......" Taohong couldn't help shouting when she saw that Mu Yan didn't speak.
Only then did Mu Yan come back to his senses.
She pinched the jade pendant and told Taohong, "This matter is not trivial, you must keep your mouth shut, do you know?" ”
Taohong is also a cautious person, and she knows the strictness of this matter, so she quickly nodded, "The slave knows, don't worry." ”
After thinking about it, he asked, "What about the jade pendant?" How to deal with it? ”
Mu Yan shrank his eyes, "Don't worry about it, I'll take it." ”
Mu Yan put away the jade pendant close to his body, and then sat upright and drank tea......
In the study, the eldest lord had already received Wang San's reply, and Wang San gave the black cloth held in Siqin's hand to the eldest master.
The eldest lord looked at the black cloth and frowned, and asked Wang San, "Does Si Qin have black clothes on him?" ”
Wang San shook his head and said cautiously, "This fabric seems to be on a man's night clothes, take a closer look." ”
Master Mu took a closer look at the fabric in his hand again, indeed, this kind of material is not worn by ordinary women, and it is indeed like the fabric on a night coat.
How could Si Qin hold such a thing in his hand?
Could it be that there were other people in the firewood room last night?
But this morning, the little guy who was guarding the firewood room obviously replied that no one else had entered the firewood room last night......
Thinking of this, the eldest master's face immediately became gloomy, and he said in a cold tone, "Go, call me the two people who guarded the firewood room last night, and ask them to wait for me in the front hall." ”
After a while, the old man pinched the black cloth and went to the front hall.
The two little guys had been brought to the antechamber, and the two of them were on their knees trembling.
Master Mu didn't look at them either, he threw the black cloth in front of them, then lifted the corners of his robe and sat down, and said coldly, "How do you explain this?" Didn't you say that no one went into the firewood room last night? Why is Siqin still holding this in his hand? ”
These two people were already weak because they lied, but now when they saw the black cloth thrown by the eldest master, the two of them suddenly had a nervous breakdown.
Regarding what happened last night, the two of them also told each other word for word, and then cried and begged for mercy.
The eldest lord was so angry that he was about to blow up his lungs, he hated those dishonest people the most in his life, and deceived the most hateful.
With a wave of his hand, "Drag it out, beat me fifty boards, and then send it to Tianzhuangzi to work as a handyman." ”
He thought Si Qin was committing suicide, but now he realized that so many things had happened last night.
Then it is obvious that Siqin did not commit suicide, but killed him.
dared to kill people in Mufu, gangsters are really rampant.
The eldest man rubbed his eyebrows and took a sip of tea, looked at the black cloth in his hand again, and thought about a lot of things in his heart.
The murderer was anxious to kill Si Qin, and it was obvious that he must be afraid of something involved, so he would want to take the risk of killing people under his nose.
What do you want to hide from such a hurry?
Is it really related to the cause of Aunt Xu's death?
He suddenly had a bad premonition, feeling that if this matter was seriously investigated, some people around him would definitely be involved......
But how could Mu Yan, that little girl, think of going to the firewood room to check Siqin's body?
Master Mu thought about it, and then ordered someone to invite Mu Yan over.
At this time, the eldest lady was already in a mess, and her ear report had already told her everything that happened in Master Mu's house.
When she heard that Si Qin was holding a black cloth in her hand, her face changed.
How could you be so careless?
Evidence was left behind......
She thought that things would pass quietly like this, but who knew that it would make waves again.
She gritted her teeth secretly, Mu Yan, it was really hateful.
What kind of piano are you going to send?
If it weren't for Mu Yan, who would have found the abnormality?
The eldest lady was full of hatred in her heart, but now was not the time for her to hate, she had to quickly keep her composure and think about how to deal with the matter.
She summoned Mother Sun and asked Mother Sun, "Did the people you arranged last night have a firm mouth?" ”
Mother Sun nodded hurriedly, "You can rest assured that this point will be reliable." ”
"If you don't think it's secure, put money in their mouths." The eldest lady paced back and forth, her eyebrows shrunk, and said, "Since the master has discovered the strangeness of Si Qin's death, I'm afraid he will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly. ”
Mother Sun deeply felt the severity of the situation, and she quickly nodded, "The slave knows, don't worry." ”
The eldest lady waved her hand annoyedly, and Mother Sun was about to leave, but she stopped again and ordered, "Let Mother Zhu come here." ”
This bamboo mother, why don't you know to stop Mu Yan?
The eldest lady was very complaining.
So when Mother Zhu came, she didn't have a good face, and asked coldly, "What's the matter?" Why can't you still look at a person? ”
Mother Zhu was like falling into the clouds, and she didn't know about the eldest lady's killing of Siqin at all, so she frowned and said, "Mrs. doesn't understand the slave maid, please make it clear." ”
The eldest lady glared at her fiercely, and she couldn't say that Si Qin was killed by her, so she could only say, "I'll let you look at Mu Yan, it's good for you to make her troublesome." The old man had been worried about Si Qin's affairs for a long time last night, and as soon as Si Qin died, this matter was over, but you made a fuss again, and found a piece of torn black cloth, which made the old man worry about it, you say, can I not blame you?
