Chapter 84: The Embroidery Girl is Dead
Gao Weihu roughly inquired about Zhao Xiuniang with Lingzhi, and slightly had an outline of the matter in his heart. He said goodbye, invited a carriage and drove straight in the direction of Tang's house.
At the time of half a pillar of incense, the carriage gradually stopped, and Gao Weihu gently lifted the curtain, and his eyebrows were slightly furrowed.
Why is the door of the Tang family closed in broad daylight? Usually there will be a family member watching the door in the house of a large family during the day, unless there is something special that does not want outsiders to enter the door will be closed, otherwise this will never happen.
Gao Weihu stepped forward and gently knocked on the golden brass knocker on the red door, about a dozen times, and no one came out to answer the door, just when he was about to turn around and leave, suddenly the door creaked open, and a snarky family poked his head out.
As soon as I saw the fairy-like Gaowei Lake at the door, I almost drooled down, and a pair of dead fish-like eyes suddenly became a little more energetic, looking at Gaowei Lake with a smile on my face.
"Is there anything wrong with this young lady?"
"May I ask if Old Man Tang is in the house?" Gao Weihu smiled slightly.
The eyes of the family were about to bulge out, and they kept swallowing the spit, as if their souls were about to be lost.
"Yes, but our old man Tang has been sick for dozens of days." The whole family stepped out of the door.
"Sick? Can the third son, Tang Zijin, be in the house? Gao Weihu asked.
As soon as he heard Tang Zijin's three words, Jia Ding's face suddenly sank, and he looked at Gao Weihu vigilantly.
"What are you looking for the third young master? Is it a ......" Jiading's expression suddenly became slightly disgusted.
Gao Weihu smiled, but he was not angry.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm the second lady of Sima Mansion, and my name is Gao Weihu." The smile of the lake is like a warm sun.
As soon as the family heard that it was Sima's young lady, they immediately became respectful, and the pair of dead fish eyes that had been staring at Gaowei Lake for a moment no longer dared to fall on Gaowei Lake's face that was overwhelming.
"Dare to ask Miss why she came to the Tang Mansion?" Jia Ding asked with his head down.
"I came here to meet Old Man Gao, and I want you to pass it on." A hint of cunning flashed in Gao Weihu's agile eyes.
"Miss Hui, Old Man Tang has instructed me, but I haven't seen any guests recently. Miss, please come back. Jia Ding said respectfully.
Gao Weihu's beautiful eyes blinked slightly, it seems that there is indeed something wrong with this Tang Mansion, and I must go in today to find out.
"What if I can cure Old Man Tang's illness?" Gao Weihu spoke very slowly, as if he was afraid that his family would not be able to hear clearly.
Jia Ding was stunned for a moment, his eyes rolled in his sockets, and said.
"Please wait a moment, Miss, and report the little one." With that, the family retreated, and the door of Jin Chi was closed without a single gap.
Gao Weihu smiled lightly, and gently wiped the fine sweat beads on his forehead with the brocade handkerchief in his hand.
"What kind of wind blew Miss Zhuhu over!" A nice man's voice came from behind the door.
I saw an excellent-looking man walking out from behind the door, with ink-dyed eyebrows and jade-like eyes, it was Tang Zixi, the second young master of the Tang family.
"Who is this young lady?" Tang Zixi looked at Gao Weihu Lake in front of him and didn't recognize it at all for a while.
In his mind, Gao Weihu should still be the one whose hair covers half of his face, and he is slightly cautious. So when I suddenly saw this unearthly and fresh Gao Wei Lake in front of me, like a fairy descending to earth, I wouldn't immediately fit the two people together in my mind.
"The second young master of the Tang family is really a noble man who forgets things." Gao Weihu said with a hint of banter.
Tang Zixi stood there for a moment, and a very incredible expression appeared on his handsome face, which seemed to be a feeling of overjoy.
"Miss Mulaohu!" Tang Zixi smiled, revealing a mouthful of shell teeth like snow.
Gao Weihu smiled and nodded slightly.
"I didn't expect Miss Yuhu to change so much, and Zixi really didn't recognize it for a while." Tang Zixi's face was a little ashamed, and his jade-like eyes were full of the beautiful shadow of Gao Wei Lake.
"It's nothing, second son, I heard that Old Man Tang is sick, can you take him to the lake?" Gao Weihu hurriedly stepped forward to inquire about Old Man Gao's situation.
"Grandpa, he ......" Tang Zixi suddenly stopped, as if there was something unspeakable.
Gao Weihu put his jade hand into his dark sleeve, took out the Tang family token with the word Jin, and held it in front of Tang Zixi's eyes.
When Tang Zixi saw this token, he was suddenly slightly stunned, and his face became very ugly. The ink-dyed eyebrows were tightly twisted together, and a pair of dark eyes were filled with a look of horror.
"This Tang family token, you must know who owns it, right?" Gao Weihu's voice was slightly cold.
"You... How did you get this token? Tang Zixi's expression became very complicated.
"I found it in the palm of Zhao Xiuniang's hand!" Gao Weihu said coldly.
Tang Zixi took a small step back, then took Gao Haohu's jade hand and walked in the direction of the Tang family.
Gao Yuhu Dai frowned, didn't understand Tang Zixi's intentions, and walked for a while and saw that Tang Zixi didn't speak, so he broke free.
"Second son, what do you mean by this?" There was a slight rebuke in Gao Weihu's voice.
"Miss Haohu, this is an internal matter of our Tang family, you'd better not interfere." Tang Zixi's voice became extremely gloomy.
"Even though I can't interfere in the affairs of your Tang family, now Tang Zijin is concerned about whether he can find out the real culprit who poisoned Gao Weixue." Gao Weihu's tone of voice became heavier and heavier.
"What's the real murderer?" Tang Zixi suddenly felt a little incredible.
Gao Weihu looked at Tang Zixi with a confused look, and suddenly became anxious in her heart, and even she didn't know how to explain everything that happened to the Gao family with Tang Zixi.
"The day before yesterday, my grandmother asked Zhao Xiuniang to make two long dresses for me and Xue Xue, but I didn't expect that Xue Xue's long skirt had a poisonous needle, and the poison on the needle was a poison called Huo Jing Hua." Gao Weihu said concisely.
"What do you say? Vitex! Tang Zixi's dark eyes widened, and he didn't feel that he gasped.
"That's right, it's the Fire Thorn Flower!" Gaowei Lake emphasized again.
"There are many such plants growing in the backyard of the Tang Mansion, because this kind of flower is guarded by the family members on weekdays, and everyone knows that it is highly toxic, so the Tang family only regards this flower as an ornamental plant on weekdays, and grandpa said that it is forbidden for anyone to touch it, or take it out of the Tang Mansion!" Tang Zixi almost couldn't believe what Gao Weihu said.
"Now Zhao Xiuniang is dead, she was killed alive, and she has been holding the token of the Tang family tightly in her hand." Gao Weihu shook the token with the word Jin in his hand again.
"Zhao Xiuniang is dead?" Tang Zixi repeated.
"It's dead, so I'm going to come to the third young master to ask a few questions." Gao Weihu said coldly.
"However, the third brother hasn't come back for half a month!" Tang Zixi's face was as gloomy as a lead cloud.
