Chapter 46: You Killed Him
What does that mean?
"Do you mean, old lady, that the old gentleman did not die of an old disease?" Su Liuyu had a bad idea spreading in her heart.
"Old diseases?" The old woman's eyes widened, and she said angrily: "My old man has always had a strong body, how can he ever have any old diseases? He clearly ordered the adulterer to be killed! ”
"But why did the murderer want to kill him?"
"Why do you want to harm him, the princess doesn't know?" The old woman's cloudy eyes stared at Su Liuyu.
There is hatred under the eyes, but more helplessness.
Su Liuyu's body paused, and thousands of reasons flashed in her heart.
"He was humiliated by the princess in public that day, and although he was angry when he came back, he always felt that it was inappropriate after thinking about it, and he didn't sleep all night, and the next day, he went to the palace to re-examine the autopsy at dawn." When the old woman heard the door, she stopped.
The daughter-in-law came in with refreshments, placed the snacks, and poured tea for her, before asking, "Since Miss is a friend of her father-in-law, what should she call her?" ”
Su Liuyu saw that the old lady didn't want her daughter-in-law to know her true identity, so she said: "My surname is Liu, and the list is one jade, just call me Xiaoyu." ”
"Look at the girl's appearance and birth, she is really as gorgeous as jade." The daughter-in-law introduced herself with a smile: "My name is Mengqiu, Miss Xiaoyu will catch up with her mother-in-law first, and I will prepare some breakfast." ”
Look at the plaque made by the old man who says Wang Gude, a woman in this era is married to her husband's surname, and her full name is Wang Mengqiu.
Listening to what Wang Mengqiu said, she should also be from a scholarly family.
Su Liuyu nodded, watched Wang Mengqiu go out, and then asked the old woman, "Old lady, why do you want to avoid Mengqiu saying these words?" ”
"She ......" The old lady wanted to speak and stopped, but looking at the position where Wang Mengqiu left, her eyes were very complicated, "This is the family background of the Wang family, and it has nothing to do with the princess, so the princess should not ask more." ”
"It's Liuyu who has overpassed, since you don't want Mengqiu to know my true identity, you might as well call me Yu'er."
Although the old woman struggled a little, she still nodded in agreement, "Our old man wanted to go to the autopsy again, but was repeatedly blocked, so he took advantage of lunch time to sneak into the morgue, and after a hurried examination, he found that the corpses were indeed in the same condition as you said, although they were burned beyond recognition by the fire, they still showed signs of poisoning." ”
"Are you saying that the old gentleman's previous examination of the corpse was different from this one?" Su Liuyu asked puzzled.
"Yes!" The old woman suddenly became emotional, "He has been in the industry for decades, and with so many lives, how can he talk nonsense and make hasty conclusions?" ”
"I'm sorry......" Su Liuyu apologized guiltily, "What I said that day was too radical and broke the old gentleman's heart, but I never wanted to humiliate the old gentleman, I just ......"
"You just lost your family the day before, you just saw that the real cause of death of your family was concealed, and you only said those words because of a sudden disaster, these are the words of our old man for you. But do you know that the few corpses he examined were deliberately arranged and replaced? The more the old woman spoke, the more agitated she became, and her face was full of tears.
"So the old gentleman asked me to meet me that day, did he want to tell me about it?"
"Yes." The old woman clutched her chest and cried bitterly, "I just didn't expect it to happen so quickly, I had already packed my bags and planned to escape from the royal city, but I didn't expect it...... I didn't expect them to move so fast...... I asked him not to take on this case, he was already in retirement time, but he said one last time, one last time...... It's really the last time in this life......"
Su Liuyu opened her mouth, wanting to comfort the old woman for a few words, but she couldn't say anything.
Everything started because of her, and the old servant Wang Gude just secretly examined the body and died.
"Old lady, this matter will not end so easily." Su Liuyu said, "The old gentleman found out the truth of the matter and died because of it, but I am afraid that you are also in danger." ”
"I have an old bone, and I am dead, and I go with the old man." The old woman raised her sleeve to wipe her tears and sighed: "It's a pity that my son went early, and now only our mother-in-law and a little grandson are left at home." We have no one to rely on, and even if those people come, what can we do? Aren't you sitting still waiting to die? ”
"Old lady, if you can trust Liuyu, why don't you go with me and avoid it for the time being." Su Liuyu said.
But how long can you avoid it?
The person who did it was none other than Su Wu's people, and they wanted to use a few fake corpses to make the old man make a final autopsy report.
Even if Su Liuyu can temporarily protect a few of them through Gu Yan's mansion, she can't support them for a lifetime after all.
It is even more impossible for them not to go out for the rest of their lives, they are all nested in the Gu Mansion, once they are caught and left alone, they will inevitably lose their lives.
"Gong ...... Xiaoyu, mother-in-law only asks you for one thing, send someone to pick up my little grandson tomorrow and let him be a house slave by your side, okay? The old woman said, standing up and kneeling in front of Su Liuyu.
"Hurry up!" Su Liuyu hurriedly grabbed her.
"Our family is diligent and smart, and he will not be lazy, my mother-in-law only asks you to take him, he is the only seedling of our old Wang family!" The old woman was full of tears, begging with pleading words.
"Okay, I promise you, you get up." Su Liuyu hurriedly helped her to sit back, "It's just that Liuyu doesn't understand, why tomorrow?" ”
"I still have something to explain, not to mention that the old man is buried today, I want him to send his grandfather on his last journey before leaving."
Buried today?
But thinking about it, it is understandable, the old woman must have also thought that the murderer who killed Wang Gude would not give up, so she hurriedly buried Wang Gude, so as not to kill those murderers too quickly, so that no one would send the old man to death.
"Then thank you Xiaoyu." The old woman wiped her tears, touched her hand and said, "As long as you are willing to take away my family, I will be at ease." ”
"What about Mengqiu?" Su Liuyu said, "I listened to her and thought, it seems that she has learned some knowledge, which can make her ......."
"She's with me." The old woman's tone immediately stiffened.
The emotion in her eyes Su Liuyu would not be mistaken, it was hate.
Su Liuyu didn't want to ask more, and nodded, "The old gentleman came back the day before yesterday, did he tell you about Xiao Xin?" ”
"You mean you asked him to take the talk for you, right?"
"Hmm."
"He went, but he couldn't see the little girl, so he could only shout what you were going to bring from afar, and he was thrown out of the prison."
Su Liuyu nodded.
I don't know if Xiao Xin heard it.
Wang Mengqiu made breakfast and asked Su Liuyu to eat together, Su Liuyu had already asked everything she wanted to ask, she left three hundred taels of silver tickets on the table after she shirked it, and left the Wang family.
Walking in the alley, stepping on the bluestone road, the sound of birds chirping in my ears, the sun has risen, and the heat is sprinkled on my body.
Su Liuyu had mixed feelings in her heart.
If it weren't for her, Lao Zuozuo would have died and watched his grandson grow up.
She was the one who killed the old gentleman......
She was so distracted that she naturally didn't notice that there was a burst of extremely light and fast footsteps behind her, rushing towards her.
The man was still holding a dagger in his hand, staring at her fiercely and rushing towards her!
