Chapter 257 Handwriting
Su Luo frowned.

"Since no one has such qualifications, then the origin of the handwriting of this suicide note is very suspicious." Su Shou picked up the tea on the desk and moistened his slightly hoarse voice. "Either this person is not in the Su family, or she really wrote this suicide note."

Su Luo cannot accept the second hypothesis.She picked up the suicide note again, read it twice, and suddenly raised her head: "Could it be my uncles?"

Su Shou also raised his head.

Su Wei continued: "The three brothers have all read a lot of books, and they grew up with their mother. They have sufficient conditions to imitate their mother's handwriting. What's more--there is Mother Bao who stays by her side all the time. , she can take mother's handwriting out for them to practice copying at any time!"

Su Shou frowned tightly: "Nurse Bao?"

Su Wei caught the sharp light in his eyes, and nodded silently: "Yes. Nanny Bao is indeed not innocent. The poisoning of Brother Li's mother has nothing to do with her, but she still has a mission in the Su family all these years .”

Su Shou slammed the teacup back on.

Obviously, he didn't know about Madam Bao's passage, or he had doubts, but he hadn't grasped it yet.Su Wei also struggled on whether to protect Nanny Bao, after all, regardless of her work for Xie's family, Nanny Bao was devoted to herself, Su Qi, and the Xie family.But right now she needs Su Shou and needs to investigate the case, and the Xie family is obviously involved, she has no way to get around, so she chooses to confess to Su Shou.

"Even though the mother passed away, the Xie family no longer interacted with the Su family, but Madam Bao has been secretly assigned by them in recent years to obtain the skills of the Su family. I think that the Xie family has persevered in the Su family's ancestral business. The covetousness should have a lot to do with the various blows they are suffering now. Then they may not have nothing to do with the mother's death."

Su Shou stood up and paced the room with his hands behind his back. It was obvious that Su Shou's confession made him a little more anxious.

"What you said is not impossible. But, what reason does the Xie family have to kill your mother? Since they haven't let go of their plot, it is even more impossible to allow your mother to have an accident. They have no reason to plan such a murder! And they Each has his own calamity."

"But we can explore along this line of thought. Even if the three uncles have no reason to kill their mother, what about the rest of the Xie family? The Xie family suffered two family fortunes, and they did not hesitate to send their mother to Suzhou as a pawn. The family always seems to be under the control of others. What if there is a traitor in the Xie family? He has the means to obtain the mother's handwriting for copying, and has the conditions to stir up trouble in the Xie family."

Su Shou stopped under the curtain, turned around and looked at her.

Su Luo kept her eyes on the suicide note and said, "Whether the murderer is from the Xie family or not, as long as you can identify the authenticity of the suicide note, you will have the answer."

"How to identify?"

Su Wei raised up the suicide note: "Father, do you still remember that Lu Pei, the young minister of Guanglu Temple, had a son with a good literary talent?"

Su Shou frowned slightly: "Lu Ling?"

"Exactly." Su Wei said, "Lu Ling is very experienced in handwriting identification. The time when Han Shizi investigated the case on the Baoxiang and captured Luo Zhi, it was Lu Ling who identified the handwriting and gave the I got a testimony. I thought about it, and I can ask him to help me with this favor!"

Su Shou frowned when he heard "Han Shizi".But his mind was still on the current topic: "Didn't you reject the Lu family's marriage proposal? Will he come to help with this favor?"

Su Wei pondered: "I can go to him and try."

This time, Su Shou's attention was on her. "It appears you have traveled extensively diplomatically, unbeknownst to me."

Su Wei bowed her head: "My daughter has no other choice. After all, a person's power is limited."

Su Shou asked, "How did you learn your skills?"

"It's also a coincidence. When I was young, I often followed my mother to recuperate in Zhuangzi. Once I accidentally found some old manuscripts, which were all about the secrets of lockmaking. I found it interesting, so I followed it silently. I didn't dare to let it go. People know. It wasn’t until I grew up that I realized that those were written by my great-grandfather.”

Su Shou frowned, showing no sign of conviction.But it was obvious that there was no other explanation besides this, so he stopped talking.He just sat down and warned: "There is a lot of fog right now, you still need to keep your skills secret."

His eyes are complicated. Since he is used to the majesty of his unsmiling father, and facing Su Wei who has been neglected by him since he was a child, he has a personality that surpasses the Su family, and at the same time can help the Su family in trouble. Indescribable emotions.

"Daughter knows." Su Luo nodded, "If this secret gets out and Xie's family finds out, I'm probably in danger too."

Su Shou asked again: "Have you followed me to the ancestral hall?"

"Exactly. Speaking of which, I also learned about Baomao's secret that day."

"Apart from your mother, what else have you heard?" Su Shou's eyes sharpened again.

Su Wei stared at the ground for a moment, then shook her head: "Not anymore."

"Really?"

"Naturally. I was already terrified when I saw my father coming in. When I heard you call my mother's nickname, I didn't pay attention because I saw you holding her tablet. I don't know the rest."

Her face was very calm and natural, and it seemed that she really only knew so much.

Su Shou was silent for a while, then nodded almost invisibly.

Su Wei said calmly, "Father, do you have any other orders? If not, I will send someone to find Mr. Lu."

Su Shou took another sip of cold tea and said, "I'll go look for the Lu family. It's not your turn to show your face."

"That's what I said, but this suicide note is my mother's suicide note. If my father handles it, I'm afraid there will be a lot of gossip behind it. More importantly, if the commotion is too big, I might startle the snake. After all, people who stare at my father are more There are far more people staring at me."

Su Shou was silent for a moment, obviously convinced.But I still asked, "How can you deceive others?"

"Father doesn't need to worry about this level. 'Ghost Hand' still has some experience in hiding his identity."

Su Shou was speechless to refute.

"The suicide note needs to be checked, and the agency map of the Defense Agency must be completed as soon as possible."

"I know it in my heart, and I will definitely not make the Su family unable to pay their errands."

Su Shou frowned again: "Duke Zhen doesn't know your identity?"

Su Wei shook her head: "As long as Han Shizi doesn't say anything, the Duke won't know about it. And Han Shizi still has a place for me, so he won't act recklessly. ——Father, don't worry, Han Shizi and the emperor will rule the country I have nothing to do with the matter of putting pressure on you."

Su Shou stared at her, not saying yes or no.
