The most ferocious sword of the Imperial City Division

Chapter 136 Confusing

Han Shiyan and Gu Shiwei looked at each other, but neither of them continued to entangle.

It doesn't matter if Mrs. Lu Guogong doesn't cooperate, because the murderer's goal was not to have her arrested as a murderer and sent to Kaifeng Mansion.

She and the young man Mo Ming were inseparable, and there were witnesses who were not present. This matter indeed had nothing to do with her.

So why did the murderer go to great lengths to hide the body in the carriage of Duke Lu’s wife?

Obviously, one of the purposes was to discredit her and attack Concubine Su's party.

According to Mrs. Lu Guogong, she comes here at a fixed time every month. So it shouldn't be a coincidence that the murderer asked Ouyang Zhi to meet here. She had thought about what would happen next.

She had thought that the body could be hidden in the carriage of Mrs. Lu Guogong, and that Jing Li would report to her as soon as she found the body, and then she would go out of the city to Wufu Temple. This time of coming and going happened to be the time when Duke Lu Guo and his wife were wandering and enjoying themselves on this road.

The murderer was even worried that she would not mind her own business and move the carriage, so he deliberately lowered the hand of Ouyang Zhi's corpse.

When she found the body, she would definitely stop Mrs. Lu Guogong...

According to the style of her and Han Shi's spectacular banquet, there is no one ant who doesn't know about the scandal of Duke Lu's wife. It is all their fault.

So here comes the problem. Because Gu Junan married Princess Fushun, they thought that Mr. Gu's most important treasure was Concubine Su's son Zhao Cheng. It's a great achievement.

When the official family kicks off, the day Zhao Cheng ascends the throne will be the day when the Gu family flourishes.

They also believed that Mianjin and the Gu family were loyal to the same person.

But now, Mian Jin had taken action against Concubine Su's sister, and Gu Shiwei even vaguely felt that she was still pointing her to another bright path. As soon as Han Shiyan said "the drunkard's intention", Mrs. Lu Guogong obviously thought of something and her expression changed.

So what's the problem?

They had thought wrong before. Mian Jin and the Gu family were not loyal to Concubine Su, but to someone else?

Is there another careerist in this court trying to seize the world?

Or is it that Mian Jin and the Gu family are not loyal to the same person?

What's more, maybe this is a self-directed and self-acted cover-up, sacrificing the reputation of Lu Guogong's wife in exchange for her and Han Shiyan taking their eyes away from Concubine Su and Zhao Cheng?

In any case, Mian Jin's move did make the previously clear situation become more confusing.

Gu Shiwei thought about it, and the feeling of having a big hand controlling everything and using her and Han Shiyan as spearmen suddenly appeared again, which made people shudder!

Gu Shiwei cleared his thoughts and his eyes fell on Mo Ming, who was still sitting on the ground and did not get up.

She was about to ask a question when she heard Han Shiyan's upright and mean voice, "Did you hear any noise? You are so young, you can't be blind and deaf, right?"

The corners of her mouth twitched, and she could almost imagine the look of Mrs. Lu Guogong's teeth itching with hatred without even looking at her.

Han Shiyan's mouth was really unforgiving.

Mo Ming's face turned red when he heard this, and he shook his head, "I did not hear any noise. I was waiting in the house in the small courtyard before dawn, and the coachman came in with an empty carriage first and said Madam, she went to listen to Master Yuan Fa’s sermon and will come back later.” “We talked for a while, and he said that his son was getting married, and he wanted to ask Master Zhi Lin to perform a divination and draw a lot to see. . But Master Zhilin’s reputation in Bianjing City is so great that he can’t be ranked at all. It would be great if Madam is willing to help.”

"When Madam came, she happened to hear what she said, and she gave the divination gold and her post to the coachman to tell the fortune. Then we entered the house..."

When Mo Ming said this, her voice became a little softer, "Madam, you didn't lie. We did not hear any unusual noises."

He said, paused and then added, "If there must be one, I seem to have heard a few birdsong. I have been growing up in the countryside since I was a child, and I have heard the sounds of common birds, but that kind of sound is... I’ve never heard of it.”

Mo Ming said with a confused look on his face, "I can't imitate the specific name."

He was a little frustrated as he spoke. He was so good at everything, but he didn't know how to play piano, chess, calligraphy or painting, let alone ventriloquism. At this moment, he couldn't confirm what he heard. It was like boiling dumplings in a teapot. I can't say it.

Han Shiyan glanced at Gu Shiwei again, but Gu Shiwei pursed his lips toward the road ahead, signaling him to look forward.

As soon as I looked at it, I saw a fast horse running over, with two people sitting on it. The one in the front who looked disheveled was about to vomit, and the one in the back who was as excited as if the monkey king was born was the old man. Old acquaintance Wu Jiang.

Behind the horse in Kaifeng Mansion was a somewhat gorgeous carriage.

"Please take care of your family affairs, Brother Shi Yan!" Wu Jiang shouted and jumped off the horse. He glanced at the corpse on the ground and hiccupped repeatedly...

The old man over there took a deep breath and turned it over with difficulty. He glanced at Gu Shiwei and Han Shiyan angrily, and patted Wu Jiang on the back, "What are you still doing? Work quickly, haha , I really didn’t expect that there would be a day when the village could not hold the corpse, and I could even find out that the body was vomited during the autopsy..."

As he spoke, he grabbed the jumping Wu Jiang, and pressed the cow to drink water, which directly cut off Wu Jiang's endless chatter...

Gu Shiwei and Han Shiyan's eyes did not fall on Wu Jiang, but looked towards the carriage behind them. After the carriage stopped, they saw an old woman wearing soap-colored clothes and her hair combed meticulously stepping out of the carriage. Grandma comes out.

The grandmother's back was straight and she looked very majestic. She walked quickly to Mrs. Lu Guogong and supported her.

"Madam is frightened. Please go back to the carriage to rest. There is an old slave here."

Mrs. Lu Guogong's whole body suddenly softened. She nodded and quickly got on the carriage...

Gu Shinwei watched and gently tugged on the sleeves of Han Shiyan beside him. The two quietly walked to the edge of the crowd and left.

"Obviously nothing can be asked here. It is indeed not the Duke of Lu who killed the person. We all know that the murderer used cotton brocade from Emei. There is no need to tangle with the Duke of Lu."

Han Shiyan deeply agreed with Gu Shiwei's words. They had already obtained all the information they could know. Duke Lu's wife was very tight-lipped. If she continued to ask questions, it would be nothing but gossip. Let Wang Yihe and Wu Jiang worry about this kind of irritation.

He turned back, glanced at the old woman in the crowd, and lowered his voice and said, "Mother Zhao who just got off the carriage came from the palace. She is famously a powerful person. She used to be Concubine Su’s right-hand man.”

"I didn't expect that instead of being a dowry for Princess Fushun, she was placed in the Duke of Lu's mansion."

Gu Shiwei also stopped and said, "This is quite interesting."
