Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Mystery to be Solved
Xu Xiaohu's eyes were red, and he walked into the room with his head drooping, except for the second grandmother Xie Xiuzhu, Xu Xiaohu's crying was the loudest.
Li Guolou stared at Xu Xiaohu's two hands, wanting to see if Xu Xiaohu's fingertips were coated with chili peppers? His snort was very smart, and he didn't smell weird, it seemed that people were innocent, but he thought Xu Xiaohu too badly. Li Guolou didn't find that Xu Xiaohu was pretending, and the man could keep sobbing, but he was also a little sissy.
Xu Xiaohu, who is less than thirty years old, has a sturdy body, a little short, and a Chinese face, giving people a feeling of steady aging.
Xu Xiaohu sat on the chair, not moving like a mountain, this sitting skill is cultivated, looking at the nose and nose and heart, which makes people look comfortable.
But Li Guolou felt that this person was too fake, and even the fake he made was disgusting. Xu Xiaohu went to save his master Wei Wenshao, but he didn't even have a little blood stained on it, how could this be? He entered the south room with an oil lamp, he was very cautious, and he was also glued with bloodstains, and Xu Xiaohu did not stick to the bloodstains when he saved people, which means that Xu Xiaohu did not save Wei Wenshao with a good life, and every step he took was carefully calculated. Xu Xiaohu wanted to break away from the relationship, but he dug his own grave, so that Li Guolou could see the fear and fear in his heart.
If this person is innocent, then there is no suspicion in the Wei Mansion, and the murderer is a person who travels all over the world. Li Guolou was wondering when Wei Wenshao died? Which of the people here are lying? Why lie on earth? Who gets the benefit of killing, and who loses from it? Who planned all of this in the end? Where are the biggest beneficiaries?
Ai Hai couldn't help but confide in his heart and said, "Deputy Chief Xu, first talk about the relationship between you and the second grandmother, and recruit me from the truth." Later, we will return to the yamen together, and the relationship between you and Xie Xiuzhu will always be revealed. โ
Wei Wenshao's face twitched a few times, and said: "I am just a normal man's heart, and I just admire beautiful things." There are fantasies in the heart, there is no actual action, not all of us are the same, and the evil in our hearts is not exposed. Ai Zhutou, don't you think about it when you're young? The great eunuchs in the palace have several wives. As for the relationship between me and my second grandmother, if you want to bend into a trick, I have no choice but to accept my fate. โ
Ai Hai snorted coldly and said, "Xu Xiaohu, I asked, but you said a lot." All right! Let me ask you again, how far has the relationship between you and Xiaoqin developed? Don't lie to us, everyone knows it. โ
Xu Xiaohu glanced at the three people in the room, and said, "I, Xu Xiaohu, am not afraid of crooked shadows, and dare to do it." It's okay to admit it, and you can't splash dirty water on me if you haven't done it. โ
Li Guolou interjected: "Xu Xiaohu, then what do you say?" If you want to stand up straight, you have to look at our faces before you say it, because you want to see what we know. I know you're a master of looking at faces, tell me, what do you see? โ
Xu Xiaohu sighed and said: "I know you don't believe me, who told me to look okay, but I also have my own ideals, if I want to make a difference in Jumbo Xuan, a man should have a career first, and then a family." Little plum, tell me, am I right? โ
Li Guolou was stunned by Xu Xiaohu's question, he didn't expect his old bottom to let the other party see it, there are really people outside the mountain, the first time he asked the case, he showed the suspect his loopholes, and the next contest made Li Guolou even more cautious.
Ai Hai said impatiently: "Xu Xiaohu, don't divert the topic, you and Xiaoqin, to what extent has you and Xiaoqin developed, to be honest." โ
Xu Xiaohu patted his chest and said, "Ai Zhutou, it really doesn't matter, how could I fancy a girl like Xiaoqin, Xiaoqin wanted to find me, but I ignored her." I just got promoted to this position, and I want to behave well in front of the master, the eldest grandmother, and the second grandmother. Let's talk ยทยทยทยทยทยทยท again."
Xu Xiaohu glanced at Ai Hai again, and said, "I still want to redeem Chu Xiangyun from Yunxiang Building, you can also listen to this matter, the lord and grandmother have scolded me for this." โ
Ai Haidao: "Oh! So you have a grudge against the old man and the big grandmother for this matter. โ
Xu Xiaohu hurriedly said: "No, no, absolutely not, the lord and grandmother are as kind to me as a mountain, how can I do something that is not as good as a pig and a dog." The old man died, and I blamed myself for not doing a good job of the rules in the house, and I just wanted to have fun. After all, I hurt my master. โ
Xu Xiaohu howled and cried again, there was no sign of stopping, it seemed that he had drunk some water just now, and water was flowing out of his eyes again.
Ai Hai didn't cut it and said: "Xu Xiaohu, don't lose your waist, you have to cry and wait for the second grandmother to cry again, we don't want to see you cry all the time." Say all the details you saw when you entered the second grandmother's room, don't hide it, don't make it up, don't make it up, don't play sloppy for someone, you must know that Skynet is magnificent and negligent, and all the lies will be exposed. โ
Xu Xiaohu didn't stop sobbing for a while, and finally recovered to a steady old state, and slowly spoke: "I really hate myself, I already feel bad in my heart, God has told me that something is going to happen, but I just let it go, I only know how to have fun." To tell you the truth, I don't know why I was restless all night, and I kept making mistakes in playing cards. But I just made a mistake, and the more I lost, the more I wanted to win back, and the final outcome was to lose the bottom line. It was already midnight after we had finished playing cards, and I went back to my room to sleep, when I heard someone calling for murder in a daze. I was so frightened that I sat up, put on my coat, put on a pair of trousers, and rushed out of the room. The scene in the courtyard is when Xiao Liuzi rushes out of the gate. I was most concerned about the comfort of the second grandmother, so I rushed directly into the south room, and saw that the living room inside was still lit, and the light in the bedroom inside was also on, I shouted, 'Second grandma, are you okay?' But no one paid any attention to me, and the body of the old man was lying at the door of the bedroom. โ
Ai Hai glanced at Xu Xiaohu and said, "Xu Xiaohu, go on, this is not a teahouse, there is no reward for you, don't sell Guanzi." โ
Xu Xiaohu took a sip of tea and replied: "Ai Zhutou, I didn't sell Guanzi, I just said something dry and took a sip of tea." I was stunned when I saw this scene, and I stood in the doorway and couldn't move. When Xiaoqin and Xie's mother came, they pushed me a few times, and then I relieved myself, ran to the master's side, and took his pulse, and as soon as I took the pulse, there was no sign of beating, so I told them that the old man was dead and told them not to touch the old man's body. As for the second grandmother who passed out on the bed, I was a man, and I didn't dare to come forward to touch it, it was Xie Ma who pinched someone and woke up the second grandmother. โ
Li Guolou teased: "Xu Xiaohu, you are quite good at going around the bend, you don't even have blood stains on the soles of your feet, you are faster and more experienced than us, who taught you?" โ
Xu Xiaohu looked at Li Guolou, who had already exposed his figure and complexion, and said, "Little Lizi, my eyes are good." Besides, the lights were on in both houses, and I could see the pool of blood on the ground. In the end, I want to say, I am also selfish, afraid of getting into trouble, I have also encountered this kind of thing, three years ago, the maid Xiaoyu in the house died of illness, we were like prisoners, we were locked in prison and interrogated for several days, the eagle-eyed old seven died of heart, that is, we poisoned Xiaoyu. In the end, it was the master who spent some money to get us out of prison and live two lives. โ
Li Guolou put aside his heart for a while, half of it was cold, Xu Xiaohu had eaten prison food, and he must not be afraid of the full set of tricks of starvation and scare with sticks. This is a die-hard, the kind of person who doesn't give up until the Yellow River. If the maid Xiaoyu really died at the hands of this person three years ago, then Xu Xiaohu has a history of murder, and it is very likely that he is a killer bought by Xu Xiaohu.
Li Guolou asked: "Xu Xiaohu, then you talk about the relationship with Man Youli, don't just pick up cheap things, Man Youli will confide in everything as soon as he arrives at the Yamen." โ
Xu Xiaohu said: "Nodding friend, what do I have to do with this death row prisoner?" He's a member of the Axe Gang, who stays in the slums to collect protection money and deals with pheasants. And we do the business of high-class people, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs is registered, Tong Su does not deceive people, and never sells fakes. You can also go and listen to this, I have never had a meal with Man Yuli. He added: "If it's full of travel and biting, I'm not easy to mess with now, Grandpa An is my backstage!" โ
Seeing Xu Xiaohu's self-confidence and arrogance, Ai Hai couldn't help but feel bitter in his mouth, the big eunuch in the palace, An Dehai, is not a master who is easy to offend, the first high-grade eunuch in the Qing Dynasty, who dares to offend! Although the grade looks very low, only seventh. But this is the person who set a precedent in the Qing Dynasty, the first eunuch with an official position in the imperial court. As long as you still want to live a nourishing life, you won't want to go to Andehai and get along.
Li Guolou suddenly had a flash of inspiration and found the reason for Wei Wenshao's death. It turned out that Wei Wenshao's business, Xu Xiaohu was able to take it all over, that is to say, Xu Xiaohu was not afraid that after Wei Wenshao's death, Zhenbaoxuan's business would plummet, could Xu Xiaohu be able to take over all the belongings of the Wei Mansion? The backstage that Xu Xiaohu was looking for in the Wei Mansion was not the second grandmother Xie Xiuzhu, but the eldest grandmother Wang Yixue, who held great power.
Li Guolou secretly pondered: This kind of business of Jumbo Xuan has very high capital requirements, and its reputation is a leader in the industry. Even if Xu Xiaohu has the ability to do it, leaving the golden sign of Jumbo Xuan is worthless.
Xu Xiaohu will not leave the Wei Mansion, he still has to stay, so what room does he have for development? Sooner or later, the position of the head of the Wei Mansion will be his, and Xu Xiaohu will not do anything that harms others and is not beneficial to himself. That Xu Xiaohu just took a fancy to Wei Wenshao's status, and he wanted to catch it all and include Wang Yixue, the eldest grandmother of the Wei family, in the harem. In Wei Mansion, it was not the second grandmother Xie Xiuzhu and Xu Xiaohu who had an affair, but the eldest grandmother Wang Yixue and Xu Xiaohu had an ulterior relationship.
But these are Li Guolou's speculations, he has no evidence, not to mention that the murderer Man Youli has been captured by him. So why did Man Youli come to Wei Mansion on the night when Wei Wen was less here? Li Guolou fell into contemplation again, there are many things that still don't make sense, and there should be another hidden truth in it. Li Guolou began to think about the confessions of several other people, he picked up the transcripts written by Ai Hai on the table, and looked at them one by one.
