Chapter 49: Find the Man Behind the Scenes!

The old doctor was really good at treating bruises, and he was so good with just one patch of medicine that she had to study the doctor's prescription when she had time.

"That's good, but this matter needs to be carefully investigated." The old lady still couldn't let go.

Shen Chuyan asked softly, "Xue'er, do you have any suspicions?" ”

"I ......" Xu Ruoxue thought for a long time.

If anyone is suspicious, Ji Xiaorou wanted to frame herself in the palace, An Qianqian is only a concubine in the Lang Mansion, and she should not have that ability.

Then there is another person who is very suspicious, that is, Xu Ruohan, who came to find him yesterday.

Xu Ruohan may not have such great ability, but it doesn't mean that the eldest lady of the Guogong Mansion will not do it.

"Maybe it has something to do with the Xuguo Mansion?" Xu Ruoxue said tentatively.

Shen Chuhan's eyes were cold: "Do you have evidence?" ”

"I didn't." Xu Ruoxue shook her head and sighed.

"I'm more worried now about whether this matter will cause trouble to the General's Mansion." Xu Ruoxue frowned, and her tone was also very anxious.

Shen Zong laughed twice: "It's not a big deal, I have already reported the matter of suppressing bandits to the imperial court, so you don't need to worry about this matter." ”

"Yes." Xu Ruoxue replied with low eyebrows.

"Let's disperse first." Shen Zong saw that the old lady's face was a little uncomfortable, so he directly asked everyone to disperse.

Shen Chuhan's eyebrows were cold, and he kept thinking about what Ruoxue had just said.

"What are you doing?" Xu Ruoxue noticed that Shen Chuhan had been following behind her, and couldn't help but ask out loud.

"Guogong Mansion." Shen Chuhan did not hide it.

He also suspected that it was the Ji family who did it, after all, Ji Xiaorou always made trouble with Xu Ruoxue, so he had been focusing on investigating Ji Xiaorou's whereabouts yesterday.

But nothing was found.

The news brought by Chasing the Wind has nothing to do with the bandits.

Now hearing Xu Ruoxue's suspicions, I can't help but have a little more consideration in my heart.

"What's wrong with the Guogong Mansion?" Xu Ruoxue looked at him curiously.

"Before, I thought that the Guogong Mansion really wanted to take you over, but now it seems that this is not the case." Shen Chuhan said thoughtfully.

Xu Ruoxue sighed and nodded: "Xu Guogong really wants to take us back, but the others may not be." ”

After several meetings with Xu Guogong, she found that this person is mercenary, as long as it is beneficial to him, he will achieve his goal at any cost.

Now her talent in Kyoto is a few points bigger than that of Xu Ruohan, and it is inevitable that she will be moved.

However, as far as she knows, there are also the eldest lady and the second lady in the Guogong Mansion.

The second lady in the past suddenly maliciously used the carriage to ram her and her mother, and now it is not impossible for the eldest lady to hire a murderer.

There is a price to be paid for bullying her!

"I'll look into this matter myself." Thinking of this, Xu Ruoxue had a hint of firmness in her tone.

Shen Chuhan didn't speak, and silently escorted Xu Ruoxue back to the room.

The Mansion of the Kingdom of Xu.

At night, the courtyard of the eldest lady is brightly lit.

Xu Ruohan has been unsettled: "Mother, ......what do you say?"

"If you have anything, just say it, how to swallow it." The eldest lady said nonchalantly.

Xu Ruohan seemed to have made a lot of determination before saying: "Mother, Cui'er told me that the General's Mansion has killed a lot of bandits, and they are all hanging on the city tower, so it won't have anything to do with you, right?" ”

The eldest lady said unhurriedly: "Don't ask about things that you shouldn't ask!" ”

"But I've heard that those bandits died miserably...... "Xu Ruohan shuddered.

I always feel that this matter is inseparable from my mother.

Finally, he swallowed his saliva and continued to ask, "They don't say anything before they die, do they?" ”

The eldest lady drank tea, and her face turned a little pale when she heard this.

simply stopped hiding it, and directly told Xu Ruohan: "I thought that little slut would disappear like this, count her fate!" ”

"Is Xue Xue okay?" Xu Ruohan frowned.

As soon as she said this, the eldest lady suddenly said angrily: "A group of useless waste, you can't even kill a woman, and you deserve it for your life!" ”

"Will they give up their mother?" Xu Ruohan's eyes were full of worry.

The eldest lady hurriedly scolded: "Don't talk nonsense, if you really confess, can you and I still sit here?" ”

Xu Ruohan bit his lip nervously and stopped talking.

Now no one has found the head of the Xuguo Mansion, if they can't hold their breath first, won't they show themselves.

The two were talking, and suddenly, the candle flame went out!

"Ahh Xu Ruohan exclaimed, startling the eldest lady.

"Don't scream, it's just that the lights are out." The eldest lady steadied her heart and said, "Come on, light the lamp." ”

Who knows, no one responded, and the door was closed.

"Mother...... I'm scared ......" Feeling that the atmosphere was not right, Xu Ruohan came to the eldest lady and grabbed her hand.

"Someone! Where are the people dead! Come and hold the lights! ”

But the strange thing is that the eldest lady shouted for a long time, but she didn't see half a figure.

The wind was whistling outside the window, and the night was faint and quiet.

Suddenly, several dark shadows flashed outside the door.

It was dark outside, but suddenly it suddenly brightened.

Then, the shadow continued to shake.

A low, cold voice came from outside;

"Give me my life!"

"Give us back our lives!"

……

For a while, Xu Ruohan and the eldest lady heard the voices of many men.

Xu Ruohan and the eldest lady were immediately frightened, hugging each other and trembling.

"Mother, are you ...... those bandits?" exclaimed.

The eldest lady pretended to be calm: "Han'er, don't be afraid. ”

"There are no ghosts in this world! I'd like to see who's playing tricks! ”

The eldest lady said as she boldly opened the door.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw a man with a bloody face rushing towards her with his teeth and claws: "Give me back my life......"

"Ahh Hell yes! The eldest lady screamed and fell back into the room and crawled back.

The man's feet never touched the ground, and he floated straight up to the eldest lady, screaming miserably.

The eldest lady trembled and hid under the table: "I didn't kill you, there is a debtor and a master, you go to the general's mansion!" ”

"It's all you, it's all you who let us die!" The man's voice was sharp and poignant.

"I was wrong, I shouldn't have let you kill the Snowy......" The eldest lady muttered as she hugged the table leg.

She had just finished shouting when she suddenly felt no sound in her ears and everything was quiet.

At this moment, a few people hurriedly came in from outside the door, and the door of the room was instantly brightly lit.

The eldest lady in the room and the lifelike Ruohan looked at each other.

The eldest lady looked back at the door, and suddenly saw several familiar figures.

Duke Xu Guo came to the front of the eldest lady with people.

"Old, sir?" The eldest lady's face turned pale in an instant.

"The eldest lady is really a good means, if it weren't for Xue'er's wit, I'm afraid we would still be kept in the dark by you!" Brother Shen Chuhan walked in after the absence of Xu Guogong.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Ruoxue also walked in slowly, and said with a smile: "Sixth brother is false, I also want to find out the real culprit as soon as possible." ”

Xu Guogong looked at the eldest lady with a disappointed face: "I didn't expect you to be behind the ghost!" ”

Those bandits were already dead, and there was no way to investigate, but Xu Ruoxue discussed with Shen Chuhan and decided to take a trip to the Xuguo Mansion.

After what happened to Xu Guogong's Xu Ruoxue, he was also very worried.

But there was still some hesitation about her request, and in the end, Xu Ruoxue said that she could go home, but wanted to see if her family really welcomed her.

Only then did Xu Guogong agree that Shen Chuhan and Xu Ruoxue pretended to be ghosts in the Guogong Mansion.

Xu Ruoxue wasn't sure if it was the eldest lady's hand, but she still chose to test it directly in this way.

"Why, why did you kill Cher?" Xu Guogong looked at the eldest lady sadly: "Could it be that everything you did before was pretended?" ”

The eldest lady has done so many things for him at home all these years, but now he seems to know her.

"Sir...... Master no, I just admitted it because I was scared......" Seeing this, the eldest lady hurriedly crawled over in embarrassment and hugged Xu Guogong's thigh.

The eldest lady's eyes were red: "Master, I treat you well and ...... for this family."

Xu Ruoxue snorted coldly: "I'm afraid that your sincerity will only be there when you are for your own children, you are really for your Ruohan, and for her, you will not hesitate to hire murderers!" ”

The eldest lady shouted again and again: "I didn't!" Master, I was wronged, don't listen to the words of the snow! ”

Seeing that she was still quibbling, Xu Ruoxue frowned: "The eldest lady is still quibbling, if it weren't for my grandfather who came in person today, you would still pour dirty water on me." ”

Shen Chuhan had a serious face: "Lord Guogong, the eldest lady can't tolerate Xue'er so much, and we don't worry about letting Xue'er return to Guogong's Mansion like this, she was robbed before she went home, who can protect her in the future?" ”

Shen Chuhan's words deeply stung Xu Guogong, he was indeed very soft-hearted towards the eldest lady, but when he thought that Xu Ruoxue was still living abroad, he felt a little guilty in his heart.

"Someone! Send the eldest lady out of the house for me and go to Yinxiu Nunnery to think for three months! Xu Guogong announced directly and angrily.

"Master, you can't do this to me!" The eldest lady was suddenly frightened, and her eyes widened in shock.

The eldest lady burst into tears: "Master, you can't send me to the nunnery, we are husband and wife!" ”

Xu Ruoxue saw that she was pestering Xu Guogong, for fear that Xu Guogong would be moved by compassion, so she directly interrupted: "I am the biological daughter of Grandpa Guo, and Grandpa Guo just thought that you are husband and wife, so there is no letter of divorce to divorce you, let you go to Yinxiu Nunnery to think about it, you still don't know how to repent?" ”

This is too merciful for Xu Ruoxue.

It seems that his daughter is not so important in the heart of Xu Guogong, but it is just for the sake of superficial work.

Things are already like this, Xu Guogong didn't even write a letter of resignation, it seems that he is still merciful to the eldest lady.

When the eldest lady heard this, she pointed at Xu Ruoxue and scolded: "Xu Ruoxue, you are all sowing discord, you little slut ......"

"Shut up!" Xu Guogong scolded loudly.
