Chapter 466: Suicide
Lu Sheng looked at the note, took a deep breath, raised his head and looked at the north gate that had not yet faded his youth, and smiled lightly, "How old are you this year?"
"Fourteen years old! Why, Lord Lu also thinks I'm a stinky kid and doesn't believe me?"
"No, you're a little more mature than I thought. If this note is true, then the fact should be that the maid got the note and learned about your eldest brother's adultery with Hui Xuan.
Then I went out and found Gong Xiaoxiao to catch the rape with me, but I didn't want to fall into the trap......, right? Who is it?"
"I don't know, at least I don't. β
"Just now, I saw that you have been guarding your sister-in-law's mourning hall, what's the matter?
"What do you mean by this, Lord Lu?"
"Just curious. β
"It's not surprising that when my sister-in-law and eldest brother got married, I was seven years old. said that she was my sister-in-law, but in fact, in my heart she was my mother. Do adults think I'm shameless?"
"It's not uncommon for a sister-in-law to be like a mother. β
"It's said that the eldest brother is romantic, hehe...... I see that there is a father, and there is a son. I was born to my father and the maid in the house, but my mother's life is not good, and I finally climbed to the head of the family, thinking that the mother and son are expensive, but I don't want to give birth to me when I have a difficult birth.
In the end, my mother died, and I survived. Although I am only a concubine, my father only has my eldest brother and my two sons, and I also live a life like a young master.
My dad was very strict with me, and the slightest mistake would result in a beating. Such days are much better after my sister-in-law got married. Every time I made a mistake, my sister-in-law would protect me, and gradually, my sister-in-law's status in my heart was much higher than that of my father and eldest brother.
I once swore that no one could hurt my sister-in-law, and whoever dared to hurt her would have to die a good death. It's just that I didn't expect that before I grew up and had the ability to protect my sister-in-law, she was killed. β
"So you've always suspected that your eldest brother did it?" Lu Sheng asked softly.
"If the eldest brother's adultery is broken by the sister-in-law, who knows what he will do under the shame?"
"Then you haven't gone to the Pure Moon Nunnery to verify it for so many days?"
"Since then, my dad has been sending people to follow me, even if I wanted to, I couldn't go. Therefore, I hope that Lord Lu can find out the truth and avenge my sister-in-law. β
"Got it, you go back, I'll find out about it. β
After Lu Sheng finished speaking, he left the North Gate family with the spider. Jowol-an is located twelve miles outside the southern suburbs of Gangneung Castle, a quiet and quiet mountaintop. The temple is dedicated to Cihang Bodhisattva, and the incense is also strong on weekdays.
Lu Sheng came in casual clothes, but was stopped by the monk outside the temple, "This donor, Jingyue Nunnery is a nunnery, and does not accept male guests, the donor forgives me, please go elsewhere to worship the Buddha with incense." β
"Why, Bodhisattva believers are also divided into men and women?"
"Bodhisattvas are not men and women, but temples are men and women. There are eighteen temples in Gangneung, which one does not have a bodhisattva. Bodhisattvas have incarnated in tens of thousands, not only in the Pure Moon Temple...... Amitabha, donor, please go back. β
"I am Lu Sheng, the head town of Xuantianfu in Chuzhou, and I have official business and want to enter the Jingyue Nunnery. Lu Sheng took out the golden token, and as soon as the token came out, the face of the monk suddenly changed.
"Amitabha, Lord Lu, please wait a while, and the poor nun will go and report it. β
After a while, the Jingding Master of the Jingyue Nunnery strode from the mountain, "Amitabha, the poor nun has seen Lord Lu, Lord Lu came for official business, isn't it that the Jingyue Nunnery has violated the law?"
"Don't you invite the official in?"
"Where, where, Lord Lu, please. β
Soon, Lu Sheng was invited into the Jingyue Nunnery by Mrs. Jingding, and the incense on the Jingyue Nunnery was really vigorous, but they were all women. So when these letter girls saw Lu Sheng, they all looked at it curiously.
The whispering sound kept coming into Lu Sheng's ears. Lu Sheng was nothing, but the spiders around him were red at the root of his ears, and he glared back at the past with a warning look. Then he and Lu Sheng entered the meditation room of Master Jingding.
"Master Jingding, this official came to ask Mrs. Shi about someone. β
"Who is it?"
"Is there a lay disciple named Hui Xuan in the Jingyue Nunnery?"
"But there is this man. Master Jingding returned with a normal face, "Hui Xuan was abandoned at the gate of Jingyue Nunnery seventeen years ago, and the poor nun adopted her as a lay disciple. β
"Why are you a lay disciple and not a Buddhist disciple?"
"Amitabha, she was abandoned in the Jingyue Nunnery, which means that she has a relationship with Buddhism. But in the end, whether or not to take refuge in Buddhism needs to be decided by herself. That's why I'm going to ask her when she's eighteen.
If she is willing to take refuge, the poor nun will give her a gradient, and if she is not, then the poor nun will let her go down the mountain. β
"Where is she now?"
In the silkworm room in the back mountain, even if Hui Xuan left the Jingyue Nunnery, she would have no worries about food and clothing with her skills in raising silkworms. β
"I want to meet her. β
"Two Adults Come with the Poor Nun ......"
Follow Jingding Shitai to the back mountain, the mountains are full of dense mulberry trees, and many nuns of Jingyue Nunnery carry bamboo baskets on their backs to pick mulberry leaves in the mulberry forest.
"HP, can you see Hui Xuan?"
"Master!" strode a nun in a monk's robe, "I haven't seen you today...... Speaking of which, I haven't seen her since dinner last night. β
"Really, aren't you sick?" Master Jingding muttered, and Lu Sheng on the side suddenly had an ominous premonition.
This kind of thing seems to be accidental but inevitable. Lu Sheng has encountered too many similar situations since he started in Suzhou.
People in this world seem to have a fixed mind, and once they are aware of something, their most common means is to kill people. Although this method is very rude, Lu Sheng also has to admit that it is very effective.
followed Mrs. Jingding to the door of Hui Xuan's room, and after Jingding called a few times, Lu Sheng suddenly pushed the door open.
"Amitabhaβ"
The scene in front of him made Master Jingding suddenly recite the Buddha horn in a low voice, bow his head and close his eyes to chant the scriptures. And the nuns who were curious to follow over when they saw the movement also exclaimed one by one.
Jing Ding's cultivation of Buddhism is profound, and he can already not be disturbed by the scene in front of him, but the nuns did let out a piercing scream like ordinary women.
A young woman, hanging from a beam. The bench at her feet fell to the ground, and there was a puddle of water under her that had not yet completely dried.
"Master Jingding, please move somewhere else and warn your disciples not to approach, and this official will investigate the scene. β
"Amitabha, sin and sin ......"
Lu Sheng and the spider stepped into the room, although the furnishings were very simple, the green lanterns were ancient Buddha, and the sandalwood was strong, but there were still some things in the boudoir that a woman should have. For example, embroidered baskets, such as some cute, good-looking patterns.
"Did the murderer kill people?" said the spider as he removed the corpse and said with a solemn face.
"No, Hui Xuan committed suicide. β
"Suicide?"
"The time of death should have been after the last night, in the middle of the night. There was a puddle of water under her, which was left by the deceased's convulsions and incontinence before suffocating to death.
And she clenched her hands tightly, her face was blue, and she was not hung up after death. And look at the oil lamp, if Hui Xuan didn't hang herself voluntarily, then her feet could completely reach the oil lamp in front of her, and overturning the oil lamp caused fireworks was enough to alarm the people around her.
The door is locked from the inside, the windows are completely sealed, and she is the only one at the scene before Hui Xuan's death. β
"Suicide? Why? We were just about to come over to verify with her the whereabouts of Beimen Wuji in those days, but she committed suicide so coincidentally? I don't believe it's a coincidence. β
"It's definitely not a coincidence...... Lu Sheng picked up the stationery on the table.
"Cihang Bodhisattva is above, the master is above, the disciple lives up to the master's teachings, the Bodhisattva's inspiration, falls into the mortal dust, and falls into deep love.
The disciple just wants to be with Ji Gongzi day and night, and wants to lead his wife to find out about this matter, just begging her to let me stand up, but I don't want to hurt his wife.
These days, disciples bow to the Buddha day and night to repent, but can they really become a Buddha by putting down the butcher's knife? Why do you hear ghosts haunting your ears in the middle of the night? The sins of the disciples can only be atoned by death.
The sins of this life, I will pay them back in the next life, I wish in the next life, I am just an outsider and will not be involved in the red dust......"
"This is Hui Xuan's last letter?" the spider looked at the contents of the letter, and then looked at the traces around him, and his eyes flashed, "Beimen Wuji is really smart, but he was mistaken by cleverness." He thought that Hui Xuan would collude with him and testify against each other. But he didn't want Hui Xuan to be as strong as he thought.
That gullible person must be Beimen Wuji. β
"That's not right!" Lu Sheng suddenly shook his head and sighed, "If it is because their adultery is broken by Gong Xiaoxiao, it will definitely be known to everyone in Jingyue Nunnery, and it is impossible for the Beimen family not to know about it." But in reality, the Jingyue Nunnery is calm.
This proves that the original Gong Xiaoxiao was taken away before he had time to go to the Jingyue Nunnery. Also, what if the note informing the maid was written by Hui Xuan?
Obviously, that other person was the one who gave Hui Xuan an idea, and the idea to let Gong Xiaoxiao break the adulterous affair was naturally unknown to Beimen Wuji. β
As he spoke, Lu Sheng took out a note from his arms and checked the handwriting on the letter.
Sure enough, it was written by one person, which means that when Beimen Wuji had a private meeting with Hui Xuan, Hui Xuan sent someone to send a letter to Gong Xiaoxiao's maid, and then tricked Gong Xiaoxiao out and was abducted and tortured by the murderer. This Hui Xuan ...... Conspiracy with the people behind the scenes?
"What else is the reason? Hui Xuan wants to enter the door of the North Gate family, so naturally she wants to get rid of Gong Xiaoxiao. The spider said of course.
"Indeed, this logic makes sense, but the problem is that Hui Xuan does have this need, but why should the mastermind behind the scenes cooperate with Hui Xuan? Or, why can Hui Xuan cooperate with the mastermind behind the scenes? Without Hui Xuan, can't the mastermind behind the scenes succeed?"
"What do you mean, my lord...... What else is there to hide when Hui Xuan committed suicide?"
Lu Sheng checked the room again, it was indeed a secret room, and the door was indeed tied when he broke the door. There is no absolute secret room killing in this world, no matter how high the martial arts are.
All traces confirm that Hui Xuan hanged herself by leaving a letter.
But...... Why is this plot so similar to a TV series? Is it really life like a drama?
Judging from the scene, there is no doubt that Hui Xuan committed suicide, but from common sense, there must be hidden secrets. Definitely, there was something I hadn't thought of. β
"My lord, Hui Xuan seems to be holding something in her hand. The spider's eyes were sharp, and he spotted a clue through the gap in his clenched fist.
Broke Hui Xuan's fist and took out a delicate jade cicada from it.
