As soon as Chunjun's words fell, Shen Lingxi obviously saw that the look on Xie's mother's face was relaxed.

Shen Lingxi had a few doubts in his heart.

It's not right, it's not right.

As soon as Xie's mother mentioned the second grandmother's cousin who was in charge of the accounts in the silver number, the "cousin" died.

It's like it's arranged.

It's too much of a coincidence.

Shen Lingxi looked at Chu Yan, "Let's go and take a look at the corpse in the account room." ”

Seeing her solemn look, Chu Yan guessed that there must be something greasy in it, and his jaw fell.

At this time, Mrs. Zeng took everyone to withdraw from the courtyard of the embroidered messenger, and ordered someone to carry a soft sedan chair, so that the second son Su Chengming personally sent Xie Wanyan back to the Xiyue Pavilion, and also instructed someone to ask for a doctor to treat Xie Wanyan.

Su Chengming is in his early twenties, handsome and fair-skinned, very tall, with a long figure, a heroic spirit between his eyebrows, and he looks very high-spirited.

He carried Xie Wanyan into the upper room, gently placed her on the bed, and retreated from the servants and maids who followed behind.

"Do you really see clearly, it was Uncle Nine who pushed my grandmother off the rockery from behind?" Su Chengming poured a glass of water for Xie Wanyan and handed it to her lips with his own hands.

Xie Wanyan had red eyes, took a small sip and drank slowly, tears fell down like beads, and her voice was soft and hoarse, "In front of so many people, I am a weak woman, how dare I lie, you and I are husband and wife, even you don't believe me?" ”

Su Chengming saw her crying again, and hurriedly twisted the veil from the side.

"Isn't my husband worried about you, how can I not believe you." He gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Xie Wanyan's eyes, and said hesitantly: "It's just that although Uncle Nine is prodigal by nature, he has been very close to the emperor since he was a child. Now that you have come forward to testify against him, if it is true that he did it, it will be over. If the evidence found by the embroiderer is not enough to convince the public, I am afraid it will be ......"

Xie Wanyan twisted her eyebrows, "The account books in the house are all signed by him, and the accounts on the tiger skin money in Wanjulou are clearly his name." ”

"Even if the embroidered messenger finds the silver number, the withdrawal of the silver taels is also his Su Xian's seal, plus me, an eyewitness, the human and physical evidence are complete, if you can't convince the public, it is the embroidery envoy's intentional favoritism, is it possible to say that I falsely accused him?"

Xie Wanyan said that in the end, she couldn't hide her excitement, her delicate face was slightly red, and her watery eyes looked at Su Chengming with a little grievance.

"That's what I asked, and I saw you in a hurry." Su Chengming smiled and coaxed softly, "You are the Xie family, and you are cousins with His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun, no matter what, he will not embarrass you." ”

Xie Wanyan sat up, stretched out her hand to hold her husband's hand, and said with tears in her eyes: "Anyway, Erlang, you just need to remember that everything I did was for you." When this case is over, my aunt and grandmother will be buried at the funeral, and you will take me to Tongwuguan. I don't want to stay in the capital anymore, I don't want to stay for a moment, I just want to stay with you......"

"I'm going to guard the customs, not to play, how can I take my ......family with me" Su Chengming's face was embarrassed, seeing that she was about to cry again, he hurriedly changed his tone, "Even if I want to take you there, my father and mother ......."

"You don't have to worry about this, I have my own way to get the second elder to agree." Xie Wanyan wiped away her tears and said firmly.

Su Chengming's eyes flashed, "Okay, good, listen to you." You have the final say. ”

Hearing him say this, Xie Wanyan burst into tears and laughed, and the little bird nested in his arms like a human.

At the same time, Mrs. Zeng also took her eldest son Su Chengye and eldest daughter-in-law Zheng Yurong back to the mourning hall, knelt in front of the spirit, and guarded the spirit for the ancestors.

Su Chengye is twenty-six years old, leading the troops all the year round, his skin is tanned, his facial features are similar to his father, and his thick eyebrows and big eyes are big. The figure is about the same height as Su Xian, and he does things at a glance, but he is a little similar to Su Xian.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, Su Chengye asked in a low voice, "Mother, did the second brother and sister-in-law really see the murderer?" Uncle Nine has always regarded money as something outside his body, how could he kill his grandmother because of this kind of thing...... The son always felt that there was something strange about this matter. ”

Mrs. Zeng's eyes were lowered, her figure knelt straight on the seat, and she didn't move her eyes when she heard the words, "The second daughter-in-law is from a famous family and knows the rules best, if she didn't see it with her own eyes, how could she talk nonsense in front of people." ”

She sighed lightly, and gently instructed, "This matter has nothing to do with our big house, whether your uncle is really wronged or false, he has his own embroidered clothes to verify, we are inconvenient to put our beaks and concentrate on your grandmother's funeral." ”

Su Chengye's thick eyebrows were deep, and his face was full of disapproval.

"Father and Uncle Nine are compatriots of the same mother, and we have never separated from each other, one is prosperous and the other is lost, how can we easily stay out of the matter."

Grandma Zheng Yurong stretched out her hand, tugged at his sleeve, and reminded him, "My husband is stationed in Tongwuguan all the year round, and he rarely returns to the house, and he knows very little about the things in the house. This matter, after all, is a grudge between the old ancestor and the ninth uncle, the second brother and daughter-in-law have already been involved, if we meddle in our affairs, I am afraid that it will be self-defeating, and it will also lead to a fire......"

"Right and wrong, with its own judgment, how can it be judged by words such as 'self-defeating' and 'setting oneself on fire'." The more Su Chengye thought about it, the more wrong it became, he stood up, pulled back his sleeves, and walked outside the mourning hall, "I'm going to find my father, no matter what, I can't let Uncle Nine suffer wrongs in vain." ”

"Husband...... Husband ...... "Zheng's face could not hide the look of anxiety.

Mrs. Zeng raised her eyes to look at her son's back as he left in a hurry, sighed and shook her head, and lowered her eyes again, "That's it, he is a character that nine cows can't pull back, if you don't listen to persuasion, let him go." ”

Zheng looked at his mother-in-law with a complicated expression, and finally didn't dare to say more, so he responded in a low voice.

Shen Lingxi gave Su Xian a human skin mask, asked him to pretend to be an embroidered messenger, and left the Wu'an Bo Mansion with her and Chu Yan.

Leaving with them were the souls of the old ancestor and Mother Xie.

After they left, the embroidery envoy found a maid to conduct an autopsy, and only then released the news of Xie's mother's violent death.

At the same time, he kindly helped Lianqiao, who was crying so much that she couldn't straighten her waist, and sent Xie's mother's body back to Xihua Hutong, which is located on the west side of Wu'an Bo's Mansion and is inhabited by people under Bo's Mansion.

Xie's mother's home is in the innermost house in the alley.

Xie's mother's husband's surname is Cheng, the man died early, and his only son, Cheng Shi, stayed at the border with Wu Anbo all the year round, taking care of the trivial matters in the border general's mansion.

Lianqiao's mother-in-law, when she gave birth to Lianqiao, died of dystocia.

There are only two grandchildren in the family who depend on each other.

Mother Xie is an old man who serves by the side of her ancestors, and she has worked hard in the house and is very shameful.

The embroidered messenger sent her body home, and all the rooms in the Bofu got the news, and sent people to Cheng's house to help Xie mother's funeral.

Lianqiao cried heartbreakingly, and in front of everyone, she fainted from crying and was carried into the inner room.

After a while, a woman with smooth hair and a plain white velvet flower on her sideburns, with a middle-aged doctor, walked in from outside......
