Chapter 170: Mysterious Letters
When Ruri returned, it was almost evening.
Seeing her coming back from outside in a hurry, Qing Anzai hurriedly poured a glass of water for her.
"Drink something to moisten your throat first, and then we'll talk about it when you're better." Qing An said softly.
Ruri looked at her and smiled gratefully.
She did it, and drank two or three cups of tea with joy before she recovered.
"Have you checked it out?" Qing An couldn't bear it anymore and couldn't wait to ask.
For such a question, Liuli nodded: "I found it." ”
Since the time he came back, Liuli went out to investigate, and he didn't come back until this time, I'm afraid it's not easy to check.
In fact, just as Tongqing An was thinking, Liuli borrowed the relatives on the other side of her father's mother, and turned over for a whole day, hitting walls everywhere, and then asked a family. But it's also strange to say that many of the people who knew about this matter back then are now gone. When the people who knew heard what Liuli wanted, they all seemed to have seen a ghost, and they quickly avoided it.
The only old woman Liuli found was also a coincidence, who had served by Aunt Gu's side back then.
"I heard what the old lady meant, that incident back then was the death of Aunt Gu." Liuli said with a cold expression, and at the same time, his eyes were also carefully observing Qing Anzai's expression.
When Qing An heard this, there was a surge in his eyes.
But soon she calmed down again, looked at Liuli and said, "I'm fine, you can just keep talking." ”
With Qing Anzai's words, Liuli naturally continued: "I heard that Aunt Gu and Aunt Zheng had a very good relationship back then, but when Aunt Gu was pregnant with Miss, there was something in the court, so I left in a hurry." At this time, Aunt Gu somehow fell into Aunt Zheng's ecstasy, and she had to go up the mountain to incense, but Mrs. stopped her, but she couldn't control Aunt Gu's temper, so she simply didn't bother to care. ”
However, Mrs. was still worried that Aunt Gu was ill, so she sent her personal grandmother to follow, and two midwives to follow. Unexpectedly, the lady would have a difficult birth. As for what happened, there is no way to know. That night, the lord got the news and hurried over, and the lady stayed in the house because of the cold, and when she returned, the young lady and the son were born. But the lady was depressed from then on, and died of illness not long after. ”
Liuli told the news she had inquired about in one breath.
After listening to this, Qing An's eyes became more and more solemn.
She really didn't expect that Aunt Gu's death would have so many origins. But what happened to Aunt Gu on the day she went up the mountain to make incense?
"Didn't the old woman go?" Qing An asked.
In this regard, Liuli shook her head and sighed: "Mama said that since then, Aunt Gu's relationship with the master has faded, and after she came back, she dismissed the people who served her, and the old woman also left." Later, I learned from my relatives that since this incident, Aunt Zheng has quickly gained the love of the master, and the people who passed with her before were driven away one after another after Aunt Zheng was favored. ”
Regarding Aunt Gu's death, it gradually became clear in front of Qing An.
It seems that the only way to find out what happened that night is to start with Aunt Zheng.
But now she is no longer the time before, she has one more clue than before, that is, the woman she sees today.
Judging from what Liuli said before, the middle-aged lady used to be Aunt Gu's maid to marry, so she must be waiting for her. In that case, she must have some clues.
Thinking of this layer, Qing An beckoned to Liuli and let him listen.
However, the matter of finding the middle-aged woman was not as simple as Qing An thought, after this person left the Prime Minister's Mansion, the person disappeared, and there was no trace at all.
In order to find out the middle-aged woman as soon as possible, Qing'an simply left the Prime Minister's Mansion and began to look for the whereabouts of the other party outside.
But after a few days, Qing An never found the whereabouts of the other party.
Seeing that time passed little by little, the whereabouts of the middle-aged woman seemed to have become a mystery, and Qing An could only wait for the other party to come again, although in her heart she could feel that the person would not come again. Just when she gradually began to give up this clue, Ruri brought good news.
Qing An is using her lunch and has been looking for it to no avail, and her appetite is not very good. Anyway, she had been looking forward to it for a long time, and then she looked forward to the truth about Aunt Gu.
Just as she was eating without a match, Liuli hurriedly ran in.
She still had a letter in her hand, so she put the letter in front of Qing An, panting: "Miss, someone gave you a letter." ”
Epistle?
After saying this, Qing Anzai put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked at Liuli with a confused look.
"Whose letter came?" Qing An was asking, so he opened the letter and read it.
But when she asked like this, Liuli recalled, but she couldn't remember who the other party was, after all, it was a completely unfamiliar face. And it looks very ordinary, so ordinary that people take a look at it and don't have any impression at all.
"I don't know." Liuli recalled with difficulty, "Looking at the other party's clothes, it's a bit like a servant of a family." ”
Qing An sighed helplessly, such a statement, said it is equivalent to not saying it.
But at this moment, all Qing'an's attention was attracted by the address on the paper, because there was no news on this letter except this address, and he didn't know what the other party wanted to express at all.
Qing An was watching, sitting there alone in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.
Liuli approached Qing Anzai, her eyes sneaking at the contents of her paper.
After seeing the address, she was equally confused: "Miss, this can't be a liar, right?" ”
Qing An took a look again, the so-called seeing words is like seeing people, this person's writing is strong and powerful, and every word is quite neat. In ancient times, even the sons of a family who had read books might not be able to write such good words, and the other party had such a powerful ability, what kind of liar.
But she seemed to think of something, and suddenly stood up and ordered: "Liuli, you go and clean up, I'm going to go to this place later." ”
As soon as the words fell, the people who were there had already run to the inner room to clean up.
Ruri looked at her impulsive figure with a worried expression.
That other party is dangerous?
But no matter how dangerous it is, Qing Anzai wants to go over and find out. Where can Liuli withstand Qing Anzai's urging, so she has to prepare quickly.
The carriage traveled for about two hours in the direction of the west of the city, and finally reached the place mentioned in the letter.
