In the atrium outside the study, Meng Ruogu fell in a pool of blood, his eyes were wide open, and his right index finger was pointing ahead, and he was already out of breath......

Meng Ruoying, on the other hand, sat down in front of the corpse, frightened, and subconsciously moved backwards. The jade hand pressed against the diaphragm, and when he turned around and saw the bloody candlestick, he was so frightened that he hurriedly withdrew his hand, but it was already a blood-stained palm......

Several people were still in shock, and Chen Xuan shouted: "Shimei, what are you doing?" You killed Brother Wakaya? ”

Well? Lin Zhao was taken aback, and immediately felt that something was wrong.

Terrified, Lee rushed in and threw herself at her husband's side. Lin Zhao, Wang Yan, and Chen Xuan also followed, confirming that Meng Ruogu was indeed dead. Looking at the scene of the scene, it should be that the spike at the top of the candlestick pierced the blood vessels in the neck and died, and the body was still warm, apparently just out of breath.

Li Shi's reality burst into tears, and when he saw that Meng Ruogu was dead, he turned around and pounced on Meng Ruoying, and said sharply: "Why? He is your own brother, why do you want to kill him? Why? ”

"No...... It's not me, it's not me......" Meng Ruoying was originally immersed in panic and sadness, but as soon as Li said this, she immediately came back to her senses and quickly denied it.

At this time, the people who had heard the screams before rushed to hear the news, and when they saw this scene, they exclaimed: "Childe is dead, Childe is dead......

After hearing this, the guests in the Meng Mansion were all surprised, Meng Ruogu was still greeting the guests in the hall just now, why did he die in a blink of an eye?

Mrs. Meng arrived in a hurry with the support of the maid, and the moment she saw her grandson lying on the ground covered in blood, she trembled all over, and then fainted directly.

"Old lady...... Old lady ......"

"Grandmother!" Meng Ruoying wanted to step forward to help, but pushed Li away and cried: "Go away!" It's you, it's all you, you are so ruthless, killing your own brother! ”

Everyone in the courtyard looked at Meng Ruoying in surprise? Could it be that Miss Meng murdered her brother? Oh my! It's unbelievable!

"Sister-in-law, I don't, it's not me!" Meng Ruoying hurriedly defended!

"You ......" Li Shi wanted to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he suddenly leaned back and fainted.

Anger is overbearing, grief is excessive, and everything makes sense......

"Young Lady ......"

For a while, there was a panic in the room, and Chen Xuan shouted over there: "Quick, hurry up and ask for a doctor!" ”

Wang Yan was well-informed, and said in a deep voice: "Shao Zhixian, hurry up and invite the servants and officials to come!" ”

Everyone reacted that this was a murderer's case, and it needed to be investigated by the government!

In this process, Lin Zhao did not speak from beginning to end. Meng Ruogu died, although he had only been in contact with him once or twice, but he had always been good to himself, and he had a good impression. Such a gentle and humble gentleman was killed? The most incredible sister Meng Ruoying has become a suspect!

Meng Ruoying murdered her brother? Lin Zhao found it hard to believe. So who will be the murderer? Lin Zhao's first suspicion was Chen Xuan and the Li family, their appearance here was too coincidental.

And when they were still in shock, Chen Xuan took the lead in identifying Meng Ruoying as killing her brother. This doesn't seem very reasonable, and it is quite a bit of a thief shouting to catch a thief......

At this moment, Old Madam Meng woke up, got up tremblingly and asked, "Ruogu ...... him?"

Chen Xuan's face was full of sadness, stepped forward to support Mrs. Meng, and said in a low voice: "Old lady mourns, Brother Ruogu has already ...... Already went to ......"

"How so?" The old lady cried and grabbed the ground, and the old tears were all over the place. The loss of a young husband, the loss of a middle-aged child, and the death of the only grandson on his 70th birthday are undoubtedly the worst tragedy for a woman! What's more, Meng Ruogu is a single transmission of three generations, and now that he has died, the Meng family has cut off the incense.

Everyone present wept with emotion, smelled sadness, and was full of sympathy......

Old Madam Meng trembled and asked, "How did he die?" Who is the murderer? ”

Chen Xuan said cautiously: "It was assassinated and murdered by someone with a candlestick, as for the murderer, Ruoying Shimei seems to be ...... Most suspicious ......"

"Ruoying?" Mrs. Meng's already scarred heart was stabbed again, and her granddaughter killed her grandson? How can a septuagenarian bear such a tragedy?

Meng Ruoying pounced and said, "Grandmother, it's not me, it's not me......"

However, his hands and skirt were covered with bright red blood, which seemed to be a very unfavorable evidence and made people suspicious......

Chen Xuan stood aside and said earnestly: "After my sister-in-law wakes up, there will be a rhetoric." ”

The focus of attention has shifted to the young lady Li, and the doctor has arrived to start treatment.

After a while, Xiao Tao came with the doctor and said, "Old lady's day mourning, you have to be stronger...... Although Young Master Sun is gone, you still have a great-grandson! ”

"What?" Old Madam Meng was taken aback.

The doctor bowed down and said, "Back to the old lady, the young lady has been pregnant for more than a month. ”

"Really?" Mrs. Meng asked in surprise.

"Can't be wrong, it's certain below!" The doctor is an old gentleman, very sure.

Chen Xuan added in time: "Old lady, the sky is pitiful, I finally left some blood for the Meng family!" ”

Mrs. Meng's heart warmed, if her granddaughter-in-law was pregnant, the Meng family's incense would be hopeful! was desperate and sad to the extreme, but at this moment there is a glimmer of hope......

That slut is pregnant? Lin Zhao couldn't help but be surprised, it's really time! Is it really the blood and blood of the Meng family? Seeing Chen Xuan's face, Lin Zhao immediately remembered the situation of the rebirth of the dog man and woman cheating.

Immediately, Lin Zhao remembered that Meng Ruogu had not returned home for more than a month, so where did Li's pregnancy come from? So the death of Meng Ruogu...... Lin Zhao slowly sketched out a possibility in his heart.

The officials of Jiangning County rushed here, and Shao Wenquan, the magistrate of the county, was present. No one would have thought that such a tragedy would happen in such a happy day today. was originally here to pay homage to his birthday, but at this time, it has become a business trip to investigate the case, and it is a rather tricky case!

Now that the eldest son of the Meng family is dead, it is preliminarily believed that he died of murder, but who is the murderer? Miss Meng?

Shao Wenquan came forward and said: "Meng Gongzi encountered an accident, he is really sad, please ask the old lady to mourn and change." The top priority is to arrest the murderer and give justice to the son, and the official needs to collect evidence. Excuse me, who was the first to discover the scene? ”

"Me!" Chen Xuan, Lin Zhao and Wang Yan all walked out......

Shao Wenquan stepped forward and asked respectfully, "Prince Wang, dare to ask what the situation was at that time?" ”

Wang Yan said: "At that time, I was chatting with Brother Lin in the garden over there, and suddenly I heard Miss Meng screaming, thinking that there had been an accident, so I hurried over. Lin Zhao nodded in agreement.

turned to ask Chen Xuandao: "Chen Gongzi, what about you?" ”

Chen Xuandao: "Not long ago, Mrs. Sister-in-law and the maid Xiao Tao came to look for Zaixia, saying that Ruoying Shimei and Ruogu Brother had a dispute, please come and dissuade them, and when they didn't want to hurry over, the tragedy had already happened...... and then added: "In the next is the ...... who arrived with Wang Gongzi and Lin Zhao."

"Yes, exactly!" The young lady Li came out with the support of the maid and said sadly: "During the banquet, I came back to change my clothes, but I found that Ruoying and her husband had a fierce quarrel, and I failed to dissuade her, so I wanted to report to my grandmother." I didn't want to meet Chen Gongzi in the garden, so I wanted to ask him to help dissuade him...... Don't want to...... Ruoying, why are you so ruthless and kill your own brother? ”

I cried into tears when I spoke, and I was excited! Xiao Tao pretended to be on the side and said: "The young lady mourns, not for herself, but also for the child in her womb, this is the only blood ...... of the child."

Everyone realized that the Li family was important to the Meng family at this moment, and her testimony became more credible.

Meng Ruoying shook her head and said, "No, I didn't quarrel with my brother at all, when I came in, my brother had already fallen in a pool of blood......"

Chen Xuan asked, "Shimei, this is Brother Meng's room, why is it here?" ”

"I ......" Meng Ruoying looked at Chen Xuan, and was a little speechless for a while......

Mrs. Meng looked at her granddaughter in disbelief, she really didn't believe that her granddaughter would make such a conscientious move, but the truth seemed to be ......

Meng Ruoying cried: "Grandmother, granddaughter and brother depend on each other for their lives, and they have always been friendly, how could they murder their brother?" Grandmother ......"

In other words, Meng Ruoying seems to lack the motive to murder her brother!

Chen Xuan said coldly: "Maybe it wasn't before, but now it may be ......."

"What do you mean?" Meng Ruoying was surprised to find that Chen Xuan, who had been very attentive to her before, seemed to be deliberately embarrassed.

Chen Xuandao: "During the banquet, the old lady once said that she wanted the young lady to learn financial management and business, which means that she wanted the sister to hand over her financial rights. Shimei has been in charge of business for many years, and the Meng family's wealth is controlled by one person. Now he has to hand it over to others, and he may not be willing, so there are quarrels and conflicts with his brother, and it is reasonable to do something out of the ordinary on impulse. It's just that I never imagined that Shimei would be so ruthless...... I'm really ...... I really saw the wrong person......" with a distressed expression, and the performance was quite in place.

Li sobbed and added, "Yes, at that time, the slave heard his brother and sister arguing, and it seemed that he was mentioning money...... What Ruoying said, I have worked hard for many years......"

Meng Ruoying said angrily: "Sister-in-law, why did I say this? Why do you want to frame me? ”

Li threw himself into Mrs. Meng's arms in a panic and cried: "Grandmother, what the granddaughter-in-law said is true, the husband died tragically, please grandmother to call the ......"

In this way, no matter how you look at Meng Ruoying, it is very suspicious!

Shao Wenquan, the magistrate of Jiangning, came forward and said: "Old lady, Miss Meng is indeed suspicious in this matter, and according to the law, we need to temporarily detain Miss Meng...... However, this case still needs to be investigated in detail, and it will not be decided for the time being...... We will not treat Miss Meng badly, and of course we will not let the murderer go unpunished, and we will definitely give Meng Gongzi a fair ......"

Meng Ruoying looked at her grandmother in a daze, anxious, the decision on this matter may not be in the hands of Mrs. Meng. But at the moment, she needs the trust of her loved ones too much......

Li buried his head in Mrs. Meng's arms and cried: "Grandmother, you have to be the master of your husband......

Old Madam Meng was silent for a long time, and finally nodded lightly!

"Grandmother, I was wronged, and my granddaughter was wronged......" Meng Ruoying was disappointed, her eyes full of panic......

Do you want to be unjustly imprisoned like this, and be charged with murdering your own brother? Meng Ruoying's heart was full of unwillingness. But at this moment, her grandmother, as the only relative, did not believe her. Suddenly, a powerful loneliness and fear hit me

Who else can you trust?

Meng Ruoying's eyes were full of panic and sadness, and she suddenly saw Lin Zhao's figure in the crowd, yes! He can, he's so smart, he can...... Meng Ruoying seemed to grasp a life-saving straw and shouted: "Lin Zhao, save me, save me......"
