Chapter 50 Is he the murderer?

"You said Jinxiu went to find Gao Anmu?" Jun Qiqi frowned, "Impossible?"

"How is it impossible? Mo Han and I saw Jinxiu sneaking into Gao Anmu's yard early this morning and staying there for a full hour!" Song Zhu couldn't understand Jun Qiqi's defense of Gao Anmu. She looked like, "Miss Jiang, is it true that she has really developed feelings for Gao Anmu these few days?
What's the matter with dead Song Zhu, he gave me eye drops in front of Meng Lang!
Jun Qiqi hurriedly explained to Meng Huaixuan, "Meng Lang, don't listen to Song Zhu's nonsense, I just don't think Gao Anmu looks like a murderer."

Song Zhu snorted, "Knowing people, knowing the face, but not knowing the heart, do you think that all the men in the world are bodhisattvas like our lord?"

"I don't think Gao Anmu looks like that either." Meng Huaixuan interrupted Song Zhu's words. It was impossible to deal with 28 maidservants silently without any help.

And Gao Anmu is not favored in Gao Mansion, who will help him?

"I don't think so." Uncle Wu suddenly pushed the door open and came in, dragging a big sack in his hand, "My lord, let's see who this is."

Uncle Wu was like the inverted peanut, holding the two corners of the sack, and poured out a person.

"This is—" Jun Qiqi squatted down and checked carefully, the person in the sack had already passed out, and still held a knife for killing pigs in his hand, "Is this Butler Zhu?"

"Just now I was watching around Gao Anmu's yard, but I saw Steward Zhu rushing in with a knife in his hand. I thought the situation was wrong, so I stepped forward to stop him. He seemed crazy and said that he must hack Gao Anmu to death today. To avenge Yue'er, seeing him so excited, I just knocked him out."

"When I asked about the cause of Yue'er's death earlier, he still hesitated, why did he suddenly change his temper?" Jun Qiqi patted Steward Zhu.

It took a while for Steward Zhu to wake up. He opened his eyes, although he was startled, he still looked angry, "What are you trying to do? Don't try to stop me, I will definitely hack that bastard to death today!"

"Butler Zhu, this is the end of the matter, let's tell what you know." Meng Huaixuan is the best at attacking the heart, "Even if you kill Gao Anmu today, you will not survive. If you don't think about yourself, you should also think about you." Wife and son think about it?"

At this moment, Housekeeper Zhu was at the mercy of his life. His son was less than five years old and had asthma, and he had to drink several taels of silver just to drink medicine every day...

Butler Zhu immediately collapsed and sat on the ground, "I'm useless! I can't avenge Yue'er! I'm useless! I don't deserve to be Yue'er's father!"

"Why did Butler Zhu insist that it was the second son of Gao who killed Yue'er?"

Steward Zhu took out a bundle from his arms tremblingly, "This is Yue'er's belongings that Yue'er's mother packed up. Gao Anmu wrote this letter to Yue'er!"

Jun Qiqi took it and glanced at it. It was an ordinary love poem, but it was signed with the word 'An'. She handed it to Uncle Wu, wanting to see what else was in the package. Just as she stretched her hand in, a silver light flashed in front of her eyes. .

Obediently!Jun Qiqi actually took out a piece of silver!She weighed it, at least 100 taels!

"Butler Zhu, where did this money come from?"

"Gao Anmu should have given it to Yue'er." Butler Zhu was very distressed, "Yue'er is very sensible, knowing that her brother's illness is costing money, she has been trying to make money, that bastard Gao Anmu must use this money to force Yue'er Submit!"

"Meng Lang, Gao Mansion is really rich. Gao Anmu can get 100 taels of silver if he makes a casual move."

"This money——Uncle Wu, come and see it!" Song Zhu snatched it from Meng Huaixuan's hand, his eyeballs almost fell out in surprise.

Meng Huaixuan couldn't fully see it, but found that the room suddenly fell into a strange silence, "What's wrong?"

Jun Qiqi curled her lips, "Uncle Wu and Song Zhu are holding that ingot of silver to study, isn't it just 100 taels, so why make such a fuss about it."

Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, Meng Huaixuan's eyes sank slightly, and the center of his eyebrows jumped a few times, "Uncle Wu, is it?"

"My lord, yes." Uncle Wu put the silver into Meng Huaixuan's hand, and led him to touch the rubbed mark on the bottom of the silver ingot.

There should have been four big characters "exclusively for salt tax" here, but now they have been deliberately smoothed out.

It was really hard to find anywhere, and it took no effort to get it. They had been looking for tax money for several months, and they got it from Butler Zhu by chance.

This shows that Meng Huaixuan's previous judgment was correct, and the missing 6000 million taels of tax silver was really in the hands of Gao Heng.

Meng Huaixuan suppressed his excitement, returned the silver to Butler Zhu calmly, and shook his head slightly in Uncle Wu's direction, as the matter of taxation and silver is still silent.

As long as you find the person who gave Yue'er money, you can follow the clues and find the missing tax money.

Meng Huaixuan continued to ask, he was keenly aware that there was something strange about this case, "Housekeeper Zhu, is there anything unusual about Yue'er on weekdays?"

Steward Zhu shook his head, "Yue'er is very obedient, and usually announces good news but not bad news."

Meng Huaixuan pressed on step by step, "Butler Zhu, based on these things alone, why do you conclude that Gao Anmu killed Yue'er?"

A piece of love poem and a piece of silver at most showed that Yue'er had something to do with Gao Anmu, but Butler Zhu was so excited, it showed that he still knew something unknown.

Butler Zhu's face was very ugly, his lips opened and closed, and it took a long time before he seemed to have made up his mind, he gritted his teeth, "Yue'er, Yue'er, she is pregnant! I guess Gao Anmu must be afraid of something Exposure will kill Yue'er!"

"Pregnant? Do you have proof?"

Butler Zhu took out another bundle, "This is the prescription that Yue'er hid under the box. I went to the pharmacy and asked about it. One is for anti-abortion medicine, and the other is for abortion medicine."

Jun Qiqi is proficient in art, and she can tell the truth at a glance. She took a look, and according to the signing time on the prescription, Yue'er was already a month pregnant.

"Meng Lang, the prescription is true."

All the evidence pointed to Gao Anmu. Even if he didn't kill anyone, he still had something to do with Yue'er's death.

Jun Qiqi was a little dazed for a moment. In her impression, although Gao Anmu was trapped in the Gao Mansion, she had a big heart. According to her opinion, she was not a creature in the pond, so how could she do such a foolish thing.

"Meng Lang, why don't I ask Gao Anmu directly."

"What? You don't think it's him?"

"Miss Jiang, how long have you known the second son? What if you ask so rashly and startle the snake?" Song Zhu really couldn't understand it, "If you defend the second son so much, those who don't know think you are his fiancee !"

Meng Huaixuan didn't know why, and rationally told him that there was indeed something wrong with the case, but when he heard Jun Qiqi defending Gao Anmu with his own ears, he really felt a little uncomfortable.

"I don't agree to act rashly either. Let's start with Jinxiu first."

Why?What's the matter, Meng Lang's words are so cold.
