Chapter 114 The Foreign Woman Who Died Last Night

Chapter 114 The Foreign Woman Who Died Last Night
"Boss Li, why did you have to wait until Xingshun Yaxing was brought down?" Chai Meng's voice was charming and seductive.

"Furthermore, you and that Li Junze are related by blood. Why are you so obsessed with suppressing his dental practice?"

Chai Meng would ask this out of curiosity, and did not expect Li Chengyi to give her any answers.

"Where is it that I am so determined to fight against his dental practice? It's because there are people above who don't want to make their mother and child feel better."

Li Chengyi used up all his sanity just to hold his lower body.

When asked by Chai Meng at this moment, he shook his head out without any concealment.

"Oh? The people above? From the capital?" Chai Meng asked tentatively.

It's a pity that as soon as she finished speaking, she heard loud shouts from the first floor.

"Li, where did he die? If you don't come to eat, do you want to starve to death?" It was Liu Yun's voice.

Don't look at Liu Yun's eloquent appearance outside and in front of people.

In fact, at home, it is a ferocious Hedong Lion Roar.

People don't have many skills, but they have a big temper.

However, Li Chengyi is a henpeck. In his early years, he relied on Liu Yun's family to gain a foothold in Yanzhou City.

Even now, Liu Yun still firmly holds the family's wealth and power in his hands.

Hearing the roar from downstairs, the place where the flag was originally raised suddenly went limp.

Ignoring the alluring Chai Meng in front of him, Li Chengyi rolled and crawled downstairs.

"Wife calm down, isn't this a few more conversations with the two masters?"

"Don't be angry, I'll give you a shoulder squeeze." Li Chengyi flattered him.

The fan in Liu Yun's hand flew up, and he said angrily, "Li Chengyi, what do you think you can do to make things happen?"

"For you, I spend all day around those ladies and ladies, is it easy for me?"

"The Fang family wants Young Master Fang to take his cousin, Ms. Wang, as a concubine. Now it's good. Ms. Wang hasn't entered Fang's house yet, her eyes are already on top of her head."

"In the past few days, she and Wang Po have not given me a good face."

"It's even more extreme today. I made an appointment to go out to the city together yesterday. I sent someone to tell me to cancel it early in the morning. Is it true that the makeup I have done early in the morning is not for nothing?"

Li Chengyi gently tapped Liu Yun on the shoulder and comforted her: "My wife is hard, I know it's not easy for a wife."

"This morning, I specially asked Zuixianglou's cook to make an extra serving of eel and shredded chicken porridge. I know you like it. Drink more to replenish your body."

Liu Yuntuan covered her mouth and laughed, "It's not too bad!"

Yanzhou City Gate.

Recently, there have been a series of death cases, and strict investigations have been carried out even when going out of the city and entering the city.

When the coachman drove to the south gate, there was already a long line out of the city.

Gu Xixi raised the curtain of the car, looked at the length of the team, estimated that it would take a quarter of an hour for them to leave the city.

Seeing Gu Xixi poking his head out, the coachman smiled embarrassedly and said:

"Miss Gu, there are tea and snacks in the car, you can use them slowly, and you will be able to leave the city gate after a while, so I won't miss your business."

"Okay." Gu Xixi replied softly.

She put down the pink gauze curtain, but instead of drinking tea or snacks, she closed her eyes and took a nap.

There was a lot of people around, and it was a little noisy.

They were all ordinary people in Yanzhou City, and most of what they talked about was inseparable from the murders that happened in the city in the past two days.

"Counting this one last night, it's already the fourth one who died, right?"

"What is the fourth one? The one who died last night is the murderer!"

"how do I say this?"

"The one who died last night committed suicide out of fear of crime, that is the pretty foreign girl in Mingyue Pavilion. It is said that she committed seppuku. There is a letter in front of the body, explaining all the guilt."

"Is that the maid named Shirley in Mingyue Pavilion?"

"Yes."

"Then I have some impressions that she looks good, but unfortunately she doesn't talk much, and she is not lively enough. I didn't expect such a quiet woman to be a Japanese master."

"Harm, it often seems that they are the most terrifying people who pretend to be weak. They usually look harmless to humans and animals, just to let everyone take off their guard."

"Who says it's not? You know people, you know your face, you don't know your heart! I heard that when she died, she even set up a magic circle, saying that she would curse Yanzhou City."

"."

Gu Xixi felt a bit complicated when she heard the discussion from outside the carriage.

It was Shirley who died last night?

Is Shirley the one who killed the horse watchman, Blacksmith Zhao and Dr. Xin?

Gu Xixi couldn't figure it out, how could Xue Li, who was weak and had no martial arts background, kill the horse watchman and blacksmith Zhao, and hang their bodies on the plaque of the government office?

Could it be that there are other accomplices?

Or... Shirley was just a scapegoat.

She is a foreigner, so she is naturally the most likely to be criticized.

Plus bones that 'inexplicably' disappeared from the bodies of the three victims.

A shop with bone china as its signboard, the maid of Mingyue Pavilion.

Everything seems to be explained.

In the eyes of the world, Shirley is that sinister Japanese spy.

"Where are you going?" A city guard asked from outside the carriage.

"Master Jun, in the car is Miss Gu who can read Fengshui from Xingshun Dental Shop. She is going out of the city to help people move graves." The coachman explained.

"Move the grave? Which one is it for?" the guard asked.

"This..." the coachman's voice gradually lowered, "it's General Qin."

Immediately the coachman took out a few taels of silver from his pocket and stuffed it into the guard's hands, "Master, please do me a favor, let us pass quickly, it would be bad to delay the auspicious time."

The guard weighed the money in his hand, and said with a sneer, "I'm sorry you don't dare to make fun of that lord, okay, hurry over."

"Yes, yes, thank you, Mr. Jun." The coachman bowed, jumped into the carriage and drove out of the city.

The conversations he had with the guards just now were all in low voices.

Fortunately, Gu Xixi's hearing is good enough, and she can barely hear clearly in this noisy environment.

Strange, why did General Qin deliberately whisper about moving the grave of his deceased wife?
It's like, I don't want others to hear and know.

"Miss Gu, my Boss Su specially asked me to tell you that General Qin's return to Yanzhou to relocate his dead wife's grave was done in secret."

"You also know that in Yanzhou City, Dongying spies have been acting rampant recently. If you let them know about the general's whereabouts, I'm afraid it will lead to accidents."

After leaving the city gate, the coachman spoke loudly, chattering with Gu Xixi endlessly.

"If you ask me, why did General Qin choose to move his grave after the Double Ninth Festival? Why didn't he move a while ago?"

"Oh, I was lucky enough to meet the general's wife back then, and she was the most beautiful woman in Yanzhou City."

"Although my shopkeeper is beautiful enough, when I was young, I was far from Mrs. Ye."

Qin Yun's wife was Ye Yihuan, the number one beauty in Yanzhou City back then, and the elderly in Yanzhou City still like to call her Mrs. Ye.

When Gu Xixi heard him talk about what happened back then, she immediately became interested.

She asked: "Uncle, what about Ming Sulan?"

The coachman was surprised, "Ms. Gu looks young, but she still knows Miss Sulan?"

Immediately afterwards, he lamented, "Ming Sulan is that blind Mrs. Zheng who begs on the street, she is a poor person."

"Uncle, Mrs. Zheng's family has an adopted daughter, have you ever seen her before?" Gu Xixi asked.

"Hey, are you talking about Zheng Ya?"

"She is not Mrs. Zheng's adopted daughter."
