Chapter 280: Sudden Death
Now that Nanhong is talking about Zhen Chutian's difference again, she has gladly accepted it.
"Maybe I've been with you for a long time, and I've been influenced by you."
"No, it's Sister Chu Tian who has been protecting herself and doesn't want us to get close, and now we are in the same group as Sister Chu Tian, so Sister Chu Tian let go." The little adult Han Shuangyi suddenly opened his mouth.
Zhen Chutian and Nan Hong couldn't help but look over, "Han Shuangyi, who did you learn this from?" ”
Especially when Nan Hong said this, she didn't forget to walk up to Han Shuangyi and turn him back and forth twice.
"Sister Nanhong, what are you doing?"
"You kid, what's in this little head?" Nan Hong made a gesture to knock Han Shuangyi's head.
It's just that the kid dodged at once, "I'm a man, you can't hit me on the head." ”
When Han Shuangyi said this, everyone present laughed.
Accompanied by laughter and laughter, it soon came night, and when Zhen Chutian went back, he saw that Granny Xuan and Gu Chenghan were in the courtyard.
What surprised Zhen Chutian the most was that Gu Chenghan was helping Granny Xuan do things.
You must know that Gu Chenghan is a person who does not touch the spring water with his fingers, and now he is helping Granny Xuan to do these trivial things, to be honest, Zhen Chutian thought that she was wrong, rubbed her eyes and looked over again, there was no change in front of her, what she saw was true.
Gu Chenghan saw Zhen Chutian and beckoned her to come over, "Why is it so late?" ”
"My lord, what are you?" Zhen Chutian didn't answer Gu Chenghan's words, but just asked rhetorically.
"You've seen it all, haven't you?" Gu Chenghan still looked a little reluctant.
At this time, Granny Xuan heard that Zhen Chutian was back, and followed her over there, "Miss Chu Tian, why did you come back so late?" ”
"Mother-in-law, what are you and Master Gu?"
"It's Master Gu, I want to do it, but it's not my wife who forced him to do it." Granny Xuan looked at Zhen Chutian expressionlessly.
"Mother-in-law, I naturally know it's not you."
Zhen Chutian coquettishly said a good word to Granny Xuan, and then asked Granny Xuan to prepare a meal, and she came to Gu Chenghan again, "My lord, when did you come?" ”
"Tell me where you went?" Gu Chenghan's jealousy at this time was already very big.
Zhen Chutian smiled at Gu Chenghan.
Gu Chenghan frowned, "What are you laughing at?" ”
"My lord, why do you look so angry?" Zhen Chutian looked at Gu Chenghan with gentle eyes.
"Who said Lord Ben, angry, I'm just wondering, where have you been?" Gu Chenghan looked at Zhen Chutian with burning eyes.
Zhen Chutian knew that he had to tell the truth, otherwise Gu Chenghan would definitely be angry.
"I went to Song Jiang to see Nan Hong, and by the way, I asked about Li Qing, Nan Hong said that the last case Li Qing investigated before resigning was the western suburbs, and I think there must be a connection between the two." After Zhen Chutian finished speaking very seriously, he looked at Gu Chenghan.
At this time, Gu Chenghan also frowned.
Without waiting for the two to say anything, Granny Xuan came to greet them for dinner.
"Master Gu, in the past, how busy you were in Tiandu Mansion, my wife couldn't take care of it, but now that you have finished handling the case, it is time for us Chu Tian to rest." Granny Xuan suddenly said such a thing, and to be honest, Zhen Chutian didn't come back to her senses.
However, Gu Chenghan seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and got up to salute Granny Xuan, "Mother-in-law, don't worry, this time I came to find Chu Tian, not for the case, but for Li Qing's business." ”
"Good, good!"
Just because of Granny Xuan's words, they were all a little embarrassed, especially Zhen Chutian and Gu Chenghan.
So they quickly finished their meal, and then Zhen Chutian used the excuse to send Gu Chenghan out.
The two of them walked out of the courtyard, and Gu Chenghan and Zhen Chutian both breathed a sigh of relief, "What's wrong with my mother-in-law?" ”
Gu Chenghan saw the strangeness of Granny Xuan, she didn't like him, he could see it.
At this time, no one is more uncomfortable than Gu Chenghan, if you want to be with Zhen Chutian, you must deal with Granny Xuan, but now he seems to have failed without waiting to enter the enemy camp.
Seeing Gu Chenghan so depressed, Zhen Chutian suddenly had a feeling that he couldn't speak, "My lord, what's wrong with you?" ”
Gu Chenghan heard Zhen Chutian's voice, and then raised his eyes to look at her, "It's okay." ”
"My lord, mother-in-law, I'm just worried about me, you don't have to think too much."
"I know."
After watching Gu Chenghan leave, Zhen Chutian returned to the courtyard, Granny Xuan was standing in the courtyard, not even looking at her, as soon as she was lifted in with her front feet, she opened her mouth, "Even if you like Lord Gu, you have to know that you are not from the same world." ”
"Mother-in-law, what's wrong with you today?" Such a mother-in-law was something Zhen Chutian didn't know, and suddenly it was like a different person.
"Chu Tian, how many times do I have to tell you before you know that people in officialdom can't approach." Granny Xuan looked at Zhen Chutian with some hysteria.
Zhen Chutian saw the expression on Granny Xuan's face, it was a very painful expression, every word she said now was something she had experienced to tell her, what was she going to do now?
But how did a blind mother-in-law know that officialdom was full of bloody storms?
Granny Xuan seemed to be aware of Zhen Chutian's snooping on her, so she dropped a sentence with some dissatisfaction and went back to the house directly.
"Chu Tian, I don't want you to be hurt."
Seeing Granny Xuan leaving, Zhen Chutian wanted to catch up, but in the end he didn't know what to say, so he simply gave up.
The next day, Zhen Chutian got up, but he didn't find Granny Xuan, he just saw the breakfast she prepared for her.
Seeing the moment of breakfast, Zhen Chutian's eyes were slightly red.
When she went out and found her neighbor, her aunt told her that Granny Xuan went to do blind embroidery, and she got up early this morning, so she didn't bother her.
Knowing that Granny Xuan was safe, Zhen Chutian was relieved, because she wanted to go with Gu Chenghan to investigate Li Qing's matter, so she told the neighbor's aunt and told Granny Xuan that she had a case and might come back late.
"Okay, I know, don't worry, I will take care of Granny Xuan for you, and you can go to handle the case with peace of mind." The neighbor's aunt is a very kind-hearted and helpful person, and Zhen Chutian will look for her if there is anything in the past.
Although they moved to the capital not long ago, they were thanks to the care of this lady.
"Okay, thank you, auntie."
Leaving the courtyard, Zhen Chutian went to find Gu Chenghan, and when the two met on the road, it can be said that they have a heart, but what is even more hearty is Yu Linglong.
He was on his way to find Zhen Chutian, and happened to meet the two of them halfway, and Yu Linglong, who was out of breath, stood in place and began to pant heavily.
"My lord, Zhen, you allow me to take a breath." Yu Linglong herself put the words out first, and then stood there.
Zhen Chutian and Gu Chenghan were really waiting for him to catch his breath.
After Yu Linglong was out of breath, he looked at Gu Chenghan and said very nervously, "My lord, something happened." ”
"Dead?" Gu Chenghan knew Yu Linglong, and if he could feel that something was wrong, it must be someone who died in the court.
Yu Linglong nodded, "It's Fu Cheng, the son-in-law of the old prime minister." ”
"Him?"
Zhen Chutian and Gu Chenghan glanced at each other, neither of them expected that the person they met yesterday would die today.
Several people didn't waste time, they went directly to Fu Cheng's home, and on the way, Yu Linglong also talked about the process of Fu Cheng's death.
The body was found by her mother in the morning, the deceased was in the study, was stabbed to death by a sword, a sword for life, leaving no traces, there were no traces of a fight in the house, the body had been experienced, there was no sign of poisoning, the cause of death was also very obvious, and the time of death was almost last night.
Yu Linglong told Zhen Chutian the most obvious thing at present.
Zhen Chutian didn't feel anything after listening to it, but Gu Chenghan thought of his mysterious and secret when he saw Fu Cheng yesterday.
"Send someone to find out what Fucheng has been busy with recently, especially related to the western suburbs." Gu Chenghan frowned and ordered Yu Linglong.
"Yes, sir, I'll go." After Yu Linglong finished speaking, she ran away.
Zhen Chutian and Gu Chenghan had no choice but to go to Fucheng's house alone.
At this time, there were many people around.
The people of Tiandu Mansion were already starting to drive people out, but those people were unmoved, seeing this situation, Liang Kuanlai was a little annoyed, and roared, "If you don't want to die, let me go." ”
As soon as the people saw that the adults of Tiandu Mansion were angry, they dared to continue to stay here, and ran away as soon as they smoked.
After these people were cleared, Liang Kuanlai saw Gu Chenghan and wanted to smile, but when he saw Zhen Chutian, a black light appeared on his face.
"Your Excellency."
Liang Kuanlai hesitated for a moment before walking over.
Gu Chenghan looked at Liang Kuan to inquire about the case.
Zhen Chutian had already entered the house at this time.
The scene of the crime was protected by the people of Tiandu Mansion, so Zhen Chutian was not worried at all.
When she entered the study, she saw Fu Cheng lying on the ground, there were really no traces of a fight around, the doors and windows were intact, according to the words of Fu Cheng's lady, when she came in in the morning, she pushed the door and didn't find anything wrong, but after coming in, she found that her husband was dead.
The wound was neat, it was done by a professional killer, or a person with extremely high martial arts, it is not difficult to deduce from the position where he was lying, just opened the door to let people in, he led people inside, the other party called him, and then he turned around and was stabbed to death directly.
The rise and fall of this man's sword was clean, leaving no trace.
Zhen Chutian frowned at the book in front of the case, the whole study room was very clean, it should be cleaned every day, but the front of the case was very messy, like Fu Cheng was losing his temper.
Gu Chenghan came in at this time, and when he saw Zhen Chutian like this, he didn't bother, just stood behind her, and when Zhen Chutian came back to his senses, he found Gu Chenghan, "My lord, when did you come over?" ”
"It's been a while, what did you find?" Gu Chenghan saw Zhen Chutian's abnormality and knew that she must have discovered something.
Zhen Chutian frowned slightly, and pointed to the case to show Gu Chenghan, "My lord, you see that this case is too messy in front of it, and it is incompatible with the cleanliness of this house." ”
"Yes, Nafu Cheng was writing before he died?"
"It's possible, it's just that there's nothing right now." Zhen Chutian frowned, she had searched many times just now, but she didn't find anything, only some books, but she saw some traces on the rice paper.
