Volume 1 Money Bag Case Chapter 31 Why are you pretending to be my daughter-in-law?

Qu Zaifan hurriedly asked, "Why?" ”

Chen Fei said: "After Su Yun left, he was really in pain for the past two days, but we often dart, and we are also people who are used to seeing life and death, I think he can still stand it." Last night, I went to the mourning hall to chat with him, and his mood has eased a little, and he has no desire to die.

Yan Lin is a very righteous person, last night he knew that the jade screen was broken, and said that Lord Jian came to the Lu family with him to help him find out the cause of Suyun's death, and he couldn't let Lord Jian bear it alone. If Prince Shu is to blame in the future, he will take all the responsibility, so that the dart game and Master Jian can be fine, anyway, he has nothing to worry about now, and he is not afraid of affecting his family, how could he commit suicide at this time? ”

Qu Zaifan said: "No worries, Yan Lin has no other family? ”

Chen Fei said: "Yan Lin's mother died early, and his father also left when he walked two years ago, and Yan Lin has no brothers and sisters. Chen Fei paused for a moment and said: "Hey, Su Yun is beautiful, and her family is a wealthy businessman, she insisted on marrying Yan Lin despite Mrs. Lu's opposition, we thought it was Yan Lin's blessings accumulated in his previous life, but I didn't expect their husband and wife to end up like this." ”

Qu Zaifan: "How did Lu Suyun and Yan Lin meet, and why did Mrs. Lu object?" ”

Chen Fei said: "Old Madam Lu was also born in our dart game, she once took Su Yun back to visit relatives, Su Yun met Yan Lin, and the two fell in love at first sight. Although Mrs. Lu said that she was born in a dart game, she is now a wealthy businessman in Jinzhou, and she wants to find a good family for her daughter, and she is also worried about the danger of darts, so her daughter worries and suffers all day long, so she resolutely disagrees with Su Yun marrying Yan Lin. But Suyun has a resolute and strong temperament, and despite Mrs. Lu's opposition, she secretly ran out of the house and became close to Yan Lin in private, and Mrs. Lu could only accept it. ”

Qu Zaichen suddenly interjected: "Old Madam Lu was born in a dart game, she should have learned martial arts, right?" ”

Chen Fei nodded: "Yes, the children born in our dart game, regardless of men and women, most of them have learned martial arts since they were young. ”

Qu Zaifan said: "Yan Lin and the people in your dart game, especially the dart master who lives in the Lu family now, do you have a grudge?" ”

Chen Fei thought for a moment, shook his head and said: "Occasionally, there are disagreements and a few disputes, but everyone has no grudges, and they are all brothers later." As far as I know, Yan Lin didn't have a big grudge against anyone.

Qu Zaifan: "Where were you last night?" ”

Chen Fei: "Sit in your room." ”

Qu Zaifan: "When you were a child, you haven't fallen asleep yet? ”

Chen Fei: "Yesterday, the jade screen was destroyed, and we were worried that King Shu would blame him, and he was irritable and bored, and he couldn't sleep. Master Qu, are you suspecting that I killed Yan Lin? My lord, Yan Lin and I are both friends and brothers, and I have no grievances with him and no reason to kill him. What's more, Yan Lin said that the jade screen was destroyed, if King Shu blames him in the future, I thought about it privately last night, Lord Shu and that Lord Jian are afraid that we can't afford to offend the dart game, it's really not good, the matter of the jade screen will be taken care of by Yan Lin, in front of King Shu, even if the ticket bureau can't completely get rid of the crime, he can be punished less, I won't kill him. ”

Qu Zaifan: "Don't be careful, I'm just asking as a rule, since you haven't slept last night, have you heard anyone else go out?" ”

Chen Fei shook his head and said, "No." ”

Qu Zaifan: "Yan Lin was in the mourning hall last night? ”

Chen Fei said: "Yes, after the government official left yesterday, he has been staying in the mourning hall, saying that he wants to accompany Su Yun more. ”

Qu Zaifan felt that there was nothing to ask, turned his head to look at Qu Zaichen and the others, and saw that Qu Zaichen was contemplating his eyebrows, and after a while, Qu Zaichen looked at Chen Fei and said, "Do you have a pen and paper in your room, borrow it?" ”

Chen Fei nodded hurriedly: "Yes, I'll get it." ”

In the evening, Mrs. Lu walked out of the bedroom quietly with her stomach up, a black cloak, and a hood covering her head, gently closed the door, and walked out. Just walked to the rockery stone road, heard a slight sound behind him, just turned his head to look back, the back shoulder was pushed violently, the body slammed into the rockery, seeing that the head wanted to hit the rockery, a figure suddenly flashed next to him, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to hug Mrs. Lu, the figure stared at the rockery on tiptoe, and the two jumped up and fell back to the stone road together.

After the rockery, the light flashed, Yun Xian, Luo Yi, and Yu Zhuo held torches and went around from behind the rockery, and when the firelight flickered, Mrs. Lu looked at Mrs. Lu's face and couldn't help but be surprised: "Why are you?" Who are you and why are you pretending to be my daughter-in-law? Are you the second son of Qu? ”

Qu Zaichen still hugged Congxi and didn't let go, looked at Congxi's eyes, and said with a slight reproach: "It's okay, right?" Didn't it make you aware that Old Madam Lu made a move and immediately dodged away? ”

Congxi, who pretended to be Mrs. Lu, pushed Qu Zaichen's arm away, stood firm and said calmly: "I also have a chance to dodge, Old Madam Lu has good martial arts, when I noticed the abnormality, it was too late to dodge, thank you this time." ”

At this moment, Lu Shangwen, Mrs. Lu, and Feng Ning also walked over from the back arch, and when the three of them approached, Old Madam Lu glared at Lu Shangwen and said angrily: "Rebel, you conspired with them to deceive me, you deliberately set up a situation tonight to lure me out?" ”

Lu Shangwen was surprised: "Mother, we don't know what's going on, the second son of Qu and the second young lady said that someone wants to kill Youqin and our children, as long as the second young lady of Qu pretends to be Youqin tonight and walks out of our room, the murderer can be brought out." We thought that things were simple, whether it was true or not, it didn't hurt to try, so we followed the advice of the second son of Qu and the second young lady. The second young lady of the Qu family said that you are sad and sad, she is not very sure that the real culprit will be drawn, try not to disturb you in advance, let us wait for the matter to be confirmed and then inform you, we feel that what the second young lady said is reasonable, so we did not inform the mother of this matter, just. Why is Mother here..."

Lu Shangwen suddenly thought of something, his face changed greatly, he turned his head to look at Qu Zaichen, and said: "Second son Qu, second young lady, is it a mistake, how could my mother murder Youqin?"

Qu Zaichen still didn't say anything, looking ahead, Qu Zaifan walked towards them with a torch with a catcher.

When Qu Zaifan approached, he said: "Okay, everyone has arrived, Mrs. Lu is pregnant, and it is not easy to stand for a long time, so let's sit on the stone bench over there and say." ”

Straight to the stone table from Xi, Qu Zaifan, Qu Zaichen, and Yun Xian followed, Mrs. Lu hesitated for a while and followed, Lu Shangwen helped Mrs. Lu to slowly walk to the stone bench, Mrs. Lu's complexion was not very good, she did not postpone, and sat down on the stone bench, Yun Xian handed over the torch to a catcher, and sat down leisurely, everyone else stood and did not sit, looked at Mrs. Lu from Xi, and said first: "Old Mrs. Lu, tell me, why did you kill me, or why did you kill your daughter-in-law?" ”

Mrs. Lu's face was angry and she kept silent.

Congxi didn't care, and smiled indifferently: "Okay, since ancient times, it has been important to come first and come first, and the courtesies are still exchanged." Let me tell you why we know you're going to kill tonight, when you found a note in your room in the afternoon that said, 'Tonight, the old place will be gone.' 'That note was secretly put into your room by our son Luo Yi while people were unprepared. ”

When Mrs. Lu heard this, she was shocked and angry.

Congxi ignored Mrs. Lu's gaze and continued: "You picked up the note, thinking that Mrs. Lu accidentally left it when she brought you food today, and thought that Mrs. Lu had a private meeting with someone tonight, so you were furious. Besides, you had the intention of killing her. Therefore, I will definitely follow Madame Lu tonight, looking for an opportunity to kill her. If Mrs. Lu died outside in the middle of the night, it would inevitably attract criticism from the neighbors and damage the reputation of the Lu family. So, it's better to let her have some accidents at home, just like Lu Suyun, right? ”

Mrs. Lu's face turned from anger to sadness, and her eyes were full of remorse and guilt. When Lu Shangwen, Mrs. Lu, and Feng Ning heard Congxi's words, they all felt incredible, and looked at Mrs. Lu in amazement.

Mrs. Lu's expression changed greatly, and she said in a trembling voice: "Did you intend to kill me? Mother, what Young Lady Qu said is true, you really want to kill me, why? What did I do wrong to make my mother hate me so much, and I was still pregnant with Shangwen's child? ”

Old Madam Lu glared at Mrs. Lu angrily and said, "You still have the face to question me, what embarrassing things have you done, don't you know?" ”

Mrs. Lu was puzzled, and said loudly: "Youqin asked herself if she had done anything to be ashamed of the Lu family, what does her mother think her daughter-in-law has done wrong, might as well say it directly?" ”

Old Madam Lu lowered her eyes and closed her mouth again.

Congxi said slowly: "Old Madam Lu, you don't want to tell the reason, because you are afraid that if you say what Mrs. Lu did, it will insult the Lu family and hurt the dignity of Gongzi Lu, right?" But your attempted murder tonight is obvious to all, and even if it is not a capital crime in the public court, you will be assigned to the frontier. After you leave, Gongzi Lu doesn't seem to be good at business, then Mrs. Lu will take over the Lu Tianran, and in the future, Mrs. Lu will also hand over the Lu Tianran to her children, I don't know if the Lu Tianran will change her surname at that time? ”

Old Madam Lu glared at Congxi, hesitated, and glared at Mrs. Lu and said, "You are a shameless slut, you dare to be shameless, saying that you are pregnant with Shangwen's child, is the child Shangwen's, is it from the Lu family?" Three days ago, the night Shangwen sprained his ankle, what did you go out for? ”

When Mrs. Lu heard this, her body suddenly became paralyzed, Lu Shangwen's face was also shocked, her legs couldn't help shaking, and Mrs. Lu said even more disdainfully: "Shangwen, even if your mother can't help you kill her, you have to divorce this adulteress immediately, you were really blind at the beginning, and you were actually asked to marry this slut and enter the gate of the Lu family." ”

Lu Shangwen's face was pale, his lips trembled in panic, and before he could speak, he had already preemptively said: "There must be evidence for divorce of wife, Old Madam Lu, what evidence do you have to prove that Mrs. Lu has fornicated with someone?" ”

Mrs. Lu said: "The second house on the left side of Huaimei Lane is her adulterer, I got up that night to go to the thatched house, and just happened to see this adulteress sneaking out of the Lu house through the back door, so I quietly followed her. She went straight to the man's house, and I heard some unpleasant words, "You can take the adulterer and confront him." ”

When Congxi heard Mrs. Lu's words, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I can't catch it, that man's name is Jin Hui, and he has been poisoned with arsenic." ”

Old Madam Lu was surprised, looked at Congxi, turned her head to look at Qu Zaichen and said: "Old Madam Lu's words are enough to prove that Mrs. Lu did go to Jin Hui's house that night, since you have seen through the whole case, you can solve the mystery for a few people in the Lu family, this girl doesn't like greedy work." ”

After finishing speaking, he sat down on the stone table, raised his arms and supported his face, and listened to the book play.
