Chapter 218: The Mountain Rain is Shaking
Qianqian . , the fastest update of the latest chapter of the concubine!
Lan Xin stuck out her tongue and muttered in a low voice, "It's all this Mrs. Zhang who is playing tricks, so I didn't wronged her." ”
Mama Zhuang ignored her, turned her head to look at Mrs. Zhang and asked, "What do you want to say?" ”
Mrs. Zhang was still immersed in her own thoughts, and was stunned when she heard the words, and when she saw Mama Zhuang's displeased face, she hurriedly said, "I, I seem to have remembered wrong, it was a man who spoke that day." ”
Mama Zhuang was stunned, but Lan Xin said angrily, "Okay, you Mrs. Zhang, I think you are pure nonsense, you will say it will be a woman, and you will say that it is a man, this male and female voice is so obvious, how could you hear it wrong!" ”
What Lan Xin said was exactly what Mama Zhuang thought, but she was more serious, although she didn't believe it either, but she didn't reprimand rashly, but turned her eyes over and continued to look at Mrs. Zhang, waiting for her next words.
Mrs. Zhang was a little nervous, in fact, she was not very sure of her guess, this was her sudden thought, because the little guy she met just now gave him this idea.
That little guy is weak and weak, and his speech is even more stingy, if such a person deliberately speaks with a sharp voice, his voice should be similar to that of a woman.
Mrs. Zhang remembered that the voice of the [maid] she heard that day was very strange, at first glance it sounded like a woman, but it was strange. At that time, she didn't think too much about it, so she took it for granted that she was a maid, until she met the little girl with a little girl, she suddenly remembered that she had never seen the face of the person who spoke that day, if it was a little girl pretending, what was impossible.
Whether or not Mrs. Zhang wants to say this idea, and whether Mama Zhuang will believe it after saying it, she still has no bottom in her heart, after all, it sounds like nonsense.
Mrs. Zhang didn't speak, and Mama Zhuang kept waiting, not that she was patient and didn't urge, but she saw that Mrs. Zhang had something to say.
"Mama, I think she is deliberately delaying time, how can there be any maid, I think she deliberately wants to return Aunt Bai." Lan Xin is not as patient as Mama Zhuang, she was already a little impatient when she saw that Mrs. Zhang didn't speak, she thought of the most straightforward way, "This kind of Diao slave should be handed over to the government to punish the crime." ”
As soon as Mrs. Zhang heard about the government, she was suddenly frightened, and she didn't care what would happen if she said it, so she hurriedly said, "I, the voice I heard that day was sharp and thin at first glance, so I just thought she was a maid." But now that I think about it, it sounds a little awkward, very nasal, as if someone made it on purpose. ”
Mama Zhuang fell into deep thought, she didn't believe it or say no, her eyes looked at her indifferently, as if she was trying to distinguish the truth of her words.
Lan Xin snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "You didn't remember that the sound was strange before, why did you suddenly remember it?" ”
Mrs. Zhang said the words in her heart, and she was also half angry in her heart, and she also knew that if she couldn't find that person, she would definitely not be able to escape from her murder of Aunt Bai, and naturally she would not hide anything.
"Miss Lan Xin, do you remember the little guy we met just now, one of them spoke softly." Mrs. Zhang said.
Lan Xin sneered twice, "Don't you want to say that the little guy we met so coincidentally is the one who pretended to be a maid." ”
Mrs. Zhang shook her head and looked at Mama Zhuang, "Naturally it's not him, I just said that that person is very likely to be a man pretending to be, but I don't know if there are such people in the house." ”
Mama Zhuang has always walked in the outer courtyard, and she is a confidant of Lord Lu, and she usually comes into contact with a lot of people, if there is such a person, she will naturally know.
"Lan Xin, you take her down first." Mama Zhuang spoke.
Lan Xin naturally received the order and raised her eyebrows at Mrs. Zhang, "Let's go, what are you waiting for!" ”
Mrs. Zhang opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but when she saw Mama Zhuang's serious face, she swallowed back the words that came to her mouth, and went out with Lan Xin. She is now a half-guilty person, and it is impossible for her to return to her own house, so she can only stay in the firewood room for the time being.
After Mama Zhuang and the others went out, they sat in the house for a quarter of an hour, and then got up and hurried out.
Lu Zhiyuan was talking to Bai Susu, although she was frightened just a few days ago, she still couldn't stay too long.
Now that there is a funeral at home, if he stays in the concubine's room for too long, he will inevitably be used by someone with a heart to make a big fuss.
The saint has always advocated filial piety to govern the country, and if there is a funeral in the family, if it is reported that he has mixed with his wife and concubine in the house during the funeral, then the crime will be big.
Bai Susu also knew Lu Zhiyuan's embarrassment, he was already very happy to come to see him, and when he saw him sitting for a while, he hurriedly urged him to leave, Lu Zhiyuan was helpless and funny, "Although there is a mourning at home, it is not appropriate to stay on your side for a long time." But you were scared the other day, and it's not a big deal for me to come to see you. Don't worry too much. "Aunt Bai is a serious concubine, but something almost happened in the house, so it should be reasonable to look at it, and no one can control it.
Seeing him say this, Bai Susu was relieved, and the two said something else, seeing that it was not too early, Lu Zhiyuan got up and left.
Bai Susu looked at his back, and his face couldn't hide his heart.
She had a strange dream in the past few days, and there were some very strange things in the dream, which she suspected were before her amnesia, but those things seemed to be very different from now, so she really couldn't figure it out.
The strangest thing is that there is no Luo in the dream, Luo died of illness a long time ago, and she is the only person next to Lord Lu. But now Roche is obviously living well, although I heard that his health is not very good, but his complexion is not like he will not be at any time.
There were many other things in the dream, and the rush of events made her mind extremely confused for a while.
Such a strange dream, it stands to reason that she shouldn't think about it, but there is one of those fragmented things that she has to care about.
The Lu family was raided, and Lord Lu was beheaded.
......
As soon as Lu Zhiyuan was discharged from the hospital, he heard Jixiang running over and said that Mama Zhuang was looking for him in an emergency, and he was already waiting in the study.
He guessed that it should be poisoned, and he hastened his steps to the study.
Inside the study.
The light and darkness shone in the room, and the man behind the desk frowned, he had been this expression since he heard Mama Zhuang's return, and his face was cloudy, as if there would be a thunderstorm in the next moment.
"Do you suspect that the person pretending to be a maid is someone from the uncle's side?" If this is said by someone else, regardless of whether what is said is true or not, you will first be beaten with a board.
Lu Zhenghe is now a big official who holds the military power in the southwest, and such people can't be moved except for the rest today. And the saint obviously treats the military power in the southwest as his own personal soldier, and he has great trust in Lu Zhenghe, so naturally he will not move him at will. If this matter is spread out in the mouth, once it spreads, it will at least be charged with framing a senior member of the DPRK and the Central Committee.
Mama Zhuang also knew the seriousness of the matter, and she decided to tell her speculation after careful consideration.
According to Mrs. Zhang's confession, the voice she heard that day was most likely pretended to be a man. And the slave maid remembered that there was such a person beside the eldest uncle, who looked like a man and a woman. ”
The person Zhuang Mama said is called Chen Cai, who is the person next to Lu Zhenghe, and the people around Lu Zhenghe on the day he entered the house were arranged by Mama Zhuang, and Chen Cai is obviously different from others, he is about forty years old, but he has no beard, he likes to wear white, and he looks very much like a woman when he talks and walks.
At that time, she thought this person was strange, so she took a few more looks, but she didn't pay much attention to it, and she had a rough impression at that time.
This person Lu Zhiyuan didn't think much about it, he heard Grandma Zhuang mention it, and he couldn't help but remember that the person who went to the pharmacy to investigate came back and seemed to say this, the person who went to buy medicine at that time also spoke a little girlishly.
He couldn't help but think a little more, if this matter was really Chen Cai's trouble, what did it mean.
This matter does not allow him to think too much, it is useless to think too much, the most important thing he should do now is to find out whether Chen Cai is that person.
The things to be investigated next are not something that Mama Zhuang can interfere in, and the matter is related to Lu Zhenghe, so it is not so simple.
When Lu Zhiyuan was the secretary of Dali Temple, in order to facilitate the investigation of the case, he specially trained a group of people to investigate some important information for him, which would naturally hand over the matter to them to investigate.
The results of the investigation surprised Lu Zhiyuan and was not surprised, the person who went to the pharmacy to buy Baicao was indeed Chen Cai, although he made a disguise and changed into rough clothes, but he was still recognized by the owner of the pharmacy.
It is already obvious that it is Chen Cai who buys the medicine, and he is also the one who disguises himself as a maid.
After Lu Zhiyuan received the news, he did not immediately order someone to arrest Chen Cai, nor did he startle the snake, but quietly suppressed the matter, and even asked Mama Zhuang to continue to investigate the maids in the house.
This incident made him think of a lot of things, Chen Cai and Aunt Bai had no grievances, and there was no reason to attack her at all, and the only reason was to act as ordered.
As for whose orders are followed, it is also obvious.
Why did Lu Zhenghe attack Aunt Bai, it was obvious that two people who couldn't beat each other, and the two had never even met.
There must be a reason for everything.
Lu Zhiyuan closed his eyes and thought about what had happened in the house in recent days, and he coldly remembered that Lu Huai'an was kidnapped that day, at that time, it was Aunt Bai who happened to be hiding on the rockery, and at that time, the people in the house had just finished their lunch break, and the two people were afraid that they would cause unnecessary trouble, so they let Lu Huai'an go and left in a hurry.
Could it be because Aunt Bai happened to hear something that shouldn't be heard, or saw something that shouldn't be seen, which made the people of that day feel dangerous, so she wanted to kill people.
As soon as this thought flashed, Lu Zhiyuan's heart was full of chuckles.
He naturally knows how much his grandfather trusts Lu Zhenghe, and even not only his grandfather, everyone in the Lu family, including himself, respects this uncle very much. If he really had the intention of harming the Lu family, he would really put the Lu family to death.
