Chapter 114

Gu Qingwan didn't care what she meant, so she was about to leave with Zilan, and also beckoned Gu Qingzhao to go to the front yard to entertain the male guests. Gu Qingzhao naturally cooperated and followed out of the Peach Blossom Garden.

As soon as she avoided Lu's eyes, Gu Qingwan quietly instructed Zilan a few words, and then went to the garden quietly. As soon as she arrived at the garden, Zilan excused herself and left.

Gu Qingwan continued to exchange feelings with the ladies, enjoying flowers and tasting wine, talking and laughing, as if she had completely forgotten what had just happened.

Only Xiao Lan quietly leaned over and asked, "Lu Rong has been gone for a long time, where did she go?" ”

"Sister Lan, don't ask, when the guests leave, you will naturally know, there must be a good show tonight!" Gu Qingwan pretended to smile mysteriously.

When the lively banquet also ended, today's harvest of Gu Qingwan is that she officially has a friendly start with the ladies of all families, under her warm hospitality, it can be said that the guests and hosts are happy, and when they leave, several young ladies are still a little reluctant to ask Gu Qingwan to get together next time.

Xiao Lan looked at Gu Qingwan expectantly, as if she was waiting for her so-called good show to play.

As soon as the guests dispersed, Mrs. Lu, who had originally planned to leave, was retained by Mrs. Gu, saying that she had something to do.

Mrs. Lu Hu hadn't seen Lu Rong until now, so she asked, "County Lord, where did Rong'er go?" Didn't you go to the garden together to enjoy the flowers? ”

Gu Qingwan spread her hands and said that she didn't know anything: "Miss Lu left without informing me, I don't know when Miss Lu left." ”

When Hu Shi heard this, he said with a reproachful face: "How are you the host, you don't take care of the guests, just!" ”

Before Gu Qingwan could speak, the eldest lady was not happy, and said with a thorn in her words: "My family Wan'er has to entertain so many guests, how can she take care of it." Your daughter left and didn't know my family, how does she know where your daughter went? ”

The Hu family blushed, but he didn't dare to argue with the Liu family, after all, in the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, the eldest lady was the head of the house, so she naturally didn't dare to provoke it.

Old Madam Lu had no choice but to stay, because she looked at Old Madam Gu's face with some displeasure, knowing that something must have happened to the Gu family, and it was related to Lu Rong.

After the guests were all gone, Mrs. Gu invited Mrs. Lu to the flower hall.

The head of the double happiness team knelt outside the hall with all the people who came to the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion today, waiting for questioning, and the class owner also felt very aggrieved, and came to sing a church meeting, and actually sang the pillar to death, isn't this a heavy loss? That Zheng Jue is his cash cow!

Old Madam Gu probably described the matter again, and when she heard it, Old Madam Lu frowned, and at this time, Lu Rong and Ziyu were also taken to the flower hall, and Ziyu and Lu Rong were both wrapped in white cloth, obviously injured.

Without waiting for others to speak, the Lu family took the first step, gently pushed Lu Rong, and said, "Rong'er, you still haven't made the matter of today's back garden clear!" ”

Lu Rong glanced at Lu, there seemed to be some fear in her eyes, and the light in Lu's eyes flashed before she stammered: "I...... I...... I saw the county lord and a man tugging into the cave...... And then...... And then I was knocked unconscious! ”

As soon as these words came out, Old Madam Lu glared at Lu Rong fiercely, staring at her and shrinking, not daring to look at Old Madam Lu again.

What kind of moth did she, the unconscious granddaughter, provoke her?

Although Mrs. Lu is the mother of the Lu family, the Lu family was raised by Lu Shangshu's favorite concubine earlier, which has also become a shame for Mrs. Lu's life, and the Lu family has learned a lot of means that cannot be put on the table with that aunt, and Mrs. Lu looks down on her very much, and has repeatedly persuaded her not to use those means to harm people, but the Lu family does not listen, so the relationship between the mother and daughter is very bad.

Hu Shi immediately cried, pulled Lu Rong to look left and right, and said, "Oh, my poor Rong'er, who is so ruthless that he beat you like this?" Whining...... Come as a good guest, how can you encounter such a dirty thing, you have done something shady and shady, and there is no need to harm others! ”

Lu Rong also cried, she cried not because she was beaten, but because she was sad about Zheng Jue's death, but her aunt had already instructed her not to say anything about the relationship with Zheng Jue, otherwise it would be a dead end.

Although Gu Qingwan listened to Lu Rong's accusation, she was still indifferent, as if the person Lu Rong said just now was not her, until Old Madam Gu asked, "Wan'er, what she said is true?" ”

Gu Qingwan glanced at Lu Rong in surprise, and then suddenly said: "This is impossible, I have never seen Miss Lu in the back garden, I took Ziyu to prepare to go back to the room to change clothes, when I was about to arrive at the Peach Blossom Garden, Ziyu said that something was lost, so I asked her to go back to find it, and I went back to the room to change clothes!" ”

At this time, Gu Qingzhao also walked in from outside, and after saluting the elders, he said directly: "I can prove that my sister has been in the Peach Blossom Garden, and I also accompanied her to talk to her son, telling her what I have learned from Mr. Nangong these days!" ”

When Gu Qingzhao said this, Old Madam Gu's face relaxed, so Old Madam Gu asked, "Rong'er, are you mistaken?" ”

Lu Rong shook her head resolutely and said, "Impossible, I obviously saw Miss Gu!" ”

Lu Shi said suspiciously: "This is strange, but the family found Wan'er's purse in the hole where the corpse was found, I think there must be something strange about this matter!" ”

As he spoke, he took out the purse and showed it to everyone.

Ziyu immediately said: "Ah, this purse is what I lost, it is exactly the same as the purse worn by the county lord Su Ri, the slave thought that it was probably taken by the thief and thrown next to the corpse, to frame the county lord!" ”

The eldest lady nodded and said: "I think what Ziyu said is reasonable, Wan'er's purse is obviously worn on her body, where is it lost, it can only be lost by Ziyu, and it was picked up by someone with a heart, and she wants to frame it!" ”

Lu didn't seem to be worried about the evidence he came up with, and he echoed it: "I also think it is, so I asked Wan'er earlier, and now I take it out, but it's just for everyone to have a number, and this matter has to be carefully verified!" ”

Old Madam Gu looked at the Lu family, and she didn't understand what medicine she was selling in her gourd, but now she was only thinking about how to calm things down, on the day of Gu Qingwan and Lu Li, there was a murder, which was not a good sign, and she felt a little uneasy.

At this time, a burst of crying suddenly broke out outside, and it seemed that the people in the troupe were crying. Gu Qingwan glanced at it, then she didn't move, and Mama Qin whispered something in her ear, and she smiled.

Old Madam Gu was startled by this voice, and hurriedly instructed Grandma Sun, "What happened?" Check it out! ”

Mama Sun did not hesitate, and hurriedly went out to have a look, and after a while, she brought in a young man, who was born with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and was not very old, about sixteen or seventeen years old.

With tears in his eyes, the young man knelt on the ground as soon as he entered, sobbing only to himself, as if he didn't care about the attitude of the people present.

Grandma Sun wrung her brows and reprimanded in a low voice: "Don't cry anymore, just say anything!" ”

The young man reluctantly stopped sobbing, with a tear in his eyes, he glanced at the two old ladies sitting in the hall, and then shouted loudly as if he had seen a savior: "Old lady, wronged, please make the decision for my brother!" ”

The eldest lady was puzzled, and glanced at the old lady Gu, wanting to hear what she meant.

Old Madam Gu had a cold face and asked irritably, "Who is your brother?" And what is wronged? ”

"Back to the old lady, my brother is Zheng Jue, that is, the person who died in your mansion today, my brother was killed for no reason, and died unjustly, I beg the old lady to give the villain justice, our parents died since we were young, and the brothers depended on each other, and now that my brother is gone, how can the villain live!" As he spoke, the boy cried again and burst into tears, crying so miserably.

Old Madam Gu's original intention to perfunctory the past had to be changed at this moment, originally thinking that if Zheng Jue was alone, then a sum of money would be sent to the troupe, and now there is a brother who comes to cry, if it can't be handled properly, I am afraid that spreading it will damage the reputation of the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion.

Grandma Sun thought about it, and then took the initiative to speak: "Your brother has a grudge against someone?" How could someone else be killed? ”

The young man hurriedly shook his head and defended: "We singers, where do we dare to make enemies with others, my brother has always had a gentle personality, and he will never provoke the enemy!" But ......"

His eyes glanced in Gu Qingwan's direction, and he seemed to be very scared at her, so he quickly put it away, but this time it made people focus all their suspicious eyes on Gu Qingwan's body.

Old Madam Gu chuckled in her heart, and suddenly thought of Lu Rong's accusation against Gu Qingwan, could it really have anything to do with Wan'er?

Without waiting for Old Madam Gu to speak, the Lu family hurriedly scolded: "But what? Don't talk in a hurry, you say that there is a grievance, just come by pipe, can I still take people's lives in the Yuanhou Mansion of Zhenyuan? ”

Old Madam Lu's eyes glanced at the Lu family, implying a warning, the Lu family only quickly opened her eyes and didn't look at Old Madam Lu, this time she had to kill two birds with one stone, even if she offended Old Madam Lu, it didn't matter, anyway, she was now the second lady of the Marquis of Zhenyuan's mansion, and Old Madam Lu couldn't help her.

The young man seemed to be frightened, and after a while, he said aggrievedly: "The villain's brother once told me before he died that he was in love with a noble lady, and he also made an appointment to meet here today to discuss elopement, so ...... So the small suspicion is that after the matter was broken, the young lady killed people! ”

The people in the room who heard this all gasped in horror, a noble lady actually had an affair with a playman, and planned to elope, which is simply a big joke in the world, shameless and ignorant.

The eldest lady seemed to think of something, slapped the table, and scolded sharply: "You can't spray people with blood, which young lady will see a singing opera?" Don't have a bad reputation! ”
