I remember that in the previous life, Cheng Yuzhu and his son have always been important ministers in front of Emperor Changsheng, in charge of Jin Wuwei, and the power in their hands is monstrous, otherwise they would not dare to hide their nephew quietly.
But in this life, he turned out to be like a scoundrel.
Cheng Yuzhu's father was doing things with Concubine Wu Hui before, but was later pitted by the Wu family to the prison of the Criminal Department, and then died in fear of crime and died in the prison of the Criminal Department.
But at that time, Mrs. Zhongyongbo didn't know who her husband had offended, and she didn't know how much silver her husband had in his hand, but he helped the Wu family sell iron tools to the outside of the customs, which was a very profitable business.
If the money was in the Cheng family, Mrs. Cheng would never have come up with such a way to keep the house.
"I want to know where the Cheng family's money went." In the evening, Wang Linzhi discussed with Gu Yue so quietly.
"It's easy." Gu Yue directly called the housekeeper over, "Go and mourn Mrs. Cheng in the name of Mrs." ”
As he spoke, he handed the steward a thousand taels of silver tickets.
The housekeeper took it, and then he spoke again: "Tell them that the Cheng family has any difficulties, and if they need help, just tell us, everyone is a neighbor." As the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. ”
The butler then retreated.
Coincidentally, the Gu family's house is separated from Uncle Zhongyong's mansion by a wall, otherwise firecrackers will be set off over there, and it would not be so easy to find out what is going on.
But the two didn't have much contact before.
Now the Gu family's move can be regarded as a relief in the snow.
After the housekeeper came back, he told Gu Yue, "There is really something to ask for over there, they want to rent a house to live in, and the Ministry of Rites said that if they don't move out, they will resist the decree and go directly to the emperor." ”
If the emperor is really unhappy, it will be a big deal again.
And the emperor will definitely be unhappy.
Cheng Yuzhu and Lu Wuniang both knew in their hearts that if they didn't move out, they would definitely cause a big disaster.
But up and down the Zhongyong Mansion, there are still one or twenty people, the house is too small, it will definitely not work, and Mrs. Cheng is dead again, ordinary people will definitely not let them live in the house.
Lu Wuniang wanted to find her mother's family for help, but Mrs. Lu was now lying in bed and sick, and Aunt Tu was in charge of the house, and Tu's hatred poisoned Mrs. Lu who killed Lu Siniang at the beginning and told the outside that her daughter committed suicide by throwing herself into a well, and she was not willing to help at all, not only that, but Aunt Tu also quietly told her husband, "The Cheng family is so bold that they dare to design the princess to do such a thing!" If our house helps him, I'm afraid that the uncle will never have a bright day in his life. ”
Master Lu has always regarded the future of his son Lu Yangchun as extremely important, so it is impossible to help the Cheng family at this time.
"The daughter who marries out, the water that is spilled, let him go." Old Man Lu sighed.
The Ministry of Rites wanted to take the opportunity to drive the Cheng family out of the capital, how could he be confused at this time?
Gu Yue chuckled, "Tell them that we have been in Beijing for a short time, and there is no extra house, but there is a Zhuangzi thirty miles away from Beijing, and ask them if they are willing to go." ”
The housekeeper groaned slightly, and then said, "It is estimated that it will take three or two days." When the time comes, find two clever daughters-in-law to go over and say goodbye.
The Cheng family used to be a rich and well-fed uncle, how could they be willing to move to Zhuangzi to live?
"In the first two years, they didn't make a lot of trouble for us!"
When Gu Sanlang learned about this, he deliberately found Gu Yue.
"But for what I did when I cut him?" Gu Yue quickly figured out the cause of the incident.
Gu Saburo nodded directly.
Gu Yue: "Not only was he stabbed, but he also caused his father to lose his title, and he was also exiled, and now it is normal to hate me, as the saying goes, if you don't fight, you don't know each other." ”
When he said this, he didn't have any sympathy, but mostly laughed.
Gu Yue actually hated the Cheng family a little, but if the Cheng family really left the capital, it would definitely take longer for them to inquire about the affairs over there, but at that time, the two of them had already set off for Wuchang Mansion, and it would take a long time for the news to be sent.
Since he promised Wang Linzhi, he naturally hoped to handle this matter earlier.
I don't know what the housekeeper told the Cheng family to say, anyway, they quickly agreed to temporarily borrow the Gu family's Zhuangzi.
After another two days, I found out a very strange thing, and the people around Cheng Yuzhu unanimously decided that their master was wronged, because their master didn't like Princess Fengxiang at all, so he didn't use any means.
As for why Princess Fengxiang was with Cheng Yuzhu, they couldn't tell them clearly, but Cheng Yuzhu told them when he was drunk that he was so miserable by Cheng Jingshu.
"None of the people who have come into contact with this woman will end well!" Wang Linzhi concluded.
Fortunately, he is now disfigured and has become an ugly monster, otherwise I don't know who will suffer next.
As she was talking, Yingluo came over and told her that it was Wang Thirteen who wanted to see her.
Wang 13 is now the captain of Wang Linzhi's guards, and she usually has something that is not convenient for the girls to do, and she always leaves it to him to do, and it must be a very important thing to find her so late now.
Wang Linzhi got up and met him in the side hall.
"Before Lord Lu and Princess Fengxiang went to Xiguan, someone filled in a well. It is said that the water in that well is not tasty. But the drunken guard whispered to the little one that there were many bones of dead people thrown into the well, and that they were afraid that people would know about it, so they were sealed. ”
Wang Linzhi only felt that her scalp was numb.
Wang 13 had also told her before that the two skeletons found in Chen Guogong's Mansion were actually thrown from the Princess's Mansion.
"Quite a few dead people? Is this news reliable? ”
"Reliable, said the guard, having seen it himself. And the well is right next to our courtyard wall. Wang 13 said.
"It's simple, you go back to the Changgong Mansion, tell Lord Zhang, and let him find a way."
Wang Shisan did as he said, but when he arrived at the Eldest Princess's Mansion, he saw that Chen Guogong's house had been surrounded by Jing Zhaoyin's people, and Meng Zhili personally asked to see Wang Weiyi, "We received a secret report that the people who have disappeared in the capital in the past few years are all related to Chen Guogong's mansion, and that the people are buried in your yard." ”
Wang 13 immediately thought of the well before, and the creepy bones in the well.
He suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and hurriedly squeezed over.
A group of people watching the excitement were already talking there, "The people of Chen Guogong's Mansion are simply not people, if they really have the slightest conscience, how can they kill so many people and bury them in the courtyard of their own house?" ”
Some people even scolded, "No wonder there are so many missing cases in the capital, it is estimated that they are all here!" It's really unconscionable. ”
