The Evil King's Favorite Concubine: Genius Perfumer

Chapter 258
Gao Dongshan is dead.

However, before De Lingxiangfang and the people who knew Gao Dongshan were shocked or saddened by his accidental death, similar incidents appeared one after another.

The second person who had an accident was a shopkeeper of a fragrant shop under the Jiang family name.

The third deceased was also a well-known old craftsman in the fragrance medicine industry.This old craftsman is similar to Master Qiao in Yujinfang, but has a wider network of contacts. He has always been good at walking and socializing among various incense shops, and his popularity is excellent.

On the surface, what these three have in common is their peers.However, in the eyes of a few insiders, the matter is not that simple... because these three people are the go-getters who have been working hard for the Jiang family's acquisition of Deling Folk Fragrance Industry recently!

"Accident... Could it be just an accident?"

Hong Yuejiao sat alone in her general manager's office, feeling a chill down her spine.

In two days, three people died, but the results of the autopsy conducted by the yamen were all "accidents".

Gao Dongshan got drunk after drinking with his friends, wandered around the city, and accidentally fell into a deep hole in an alley that was being renovated.Because the head hit the ground first, Gao Dongshan died almost immediately after landing.

The shopkeeper of the incense shop had an accident on the same night as Gao Dongshan, and the cause of death was that he slipped and fell into the water beside the Fanjiang River.

And the perfumer died from being bitten by a wild dog on the side of the road—no one knows why such a ferocious wild dog suddenly popped up on the side of the road in a good city, and it came up to the old craftsman. Throat, but a few face-to-face will kill.Even though his accompanying family members tried their best to kill him, they failed to save the old man's life.According to the neighbors around, I have never seen such a ferocious wild dog around these years... It seems to have come out of the ground!

There is no murderer, not even a suspect, and everyone dies so "accidentally".

But...how could this be a coincidence?

Hong Yuejiao sat quietly, the clothes on her back were drenched with cold sweat.Mrs. Zhu came in without knowing it, opened the door and asked if she wanted to have lunch, but she scolded her out severely.

In the past, even though Hong Yuejiao was not very kind to Mrs. Zhu, it was rare for her to have such a bad attitude.Fortunately, although Mrs. Zhu is extremely snobbish, she still knows how to look at her backer cousin a little bit, and she didn't dare to let a fart go away.

Not long after, the news that Manager Hong was in a bad mood spread among the news of the deaths of those people and spread to all the workshops of De Ling Xiangfang...

Everyone thought that Manager Hong was in a bad mood because of the inexplicable death of his capable subordinates, but Gan Tiantian smelled something unusual.

Even though she was still not aware of the collusion between the other two dead colleagues and the Jiang family, she was still sensitively aware that... something big seemed to be happening silently.

Did Han Rui do it?
At the same moment, in the Jiang family's mansion on the other side of Deling City, Concubine Jiang smashed a good tea set with frost on her face.

"Who the hell did it!"

The eldest maid, Ruyi, stood in the corner of the room with a group of younger maids, trembling, no one dared to step forward to touch Concubine Jiang's bad luck.

After Concubine Jiang got angry, she immediately reprimanded the servants: "They are all dead people? Hurry up and get rid of this rubbish! It's an eyesore!"

"Yes, ma'am."

Ruyi knew that Concubine Jiang's kindness was always superficial, but in fact she treated her servants extremely harshly, beating, scolding and punishing her frequently.I have been with her for a long time, but I have always been worried, for fear that, like those maids who committed crimes in the past, they will be beaten up by Concubine Jiang and thrown out to sell, and I don't know where they will end up!
"Is it Han Rui..."

Concubine Jiang sat at the table with a dark face, staring absently at the servants cleaning, but her mind was spinning rapidly.

Although her natal brother had told him earlier, Han Rui was not as simple and harmless as he appeared on the surface, and even had the strength to fight against a group of bandits.But... In the past few days, Han Rui has been "serving" by his side almost day and night, and rarely leaves.

Although Concubine Jiang didn't take the lives of servants and ordinary people seriously, but as a woman in a deep house, she was quite afraid of such simple and crude "bad things" as murder and arson.It's nothing at all to steal the property and land of ordinary people and kill people, but... directly kill people... and several of them...

Even if Han Rui didn't do it, it might have something to do with him!Because of the successive deaths of these three people, the plan to annex and acquire folk fragrance medicine workshops, which could have been smoothly advanced—the Jiang family originally thought so—has brought about great changes!
Those small workshop owners who were originally reluctant to sell their property began to flicker again, finding all kinds of excuses to delay the deal with Jiang's family.

It is impossible for Concubine Jiang to stay in Deling County for a long time.She originally wanted to take advantage of the few days she was here to settle major matters, and let the brothers of her natal family eat up a few large folk incense shops first, and then slowly eat away at other small shops.

But now...

Or, is it the black hands of the Fang family?

Concubine Jiang thought of another possibility.

On this side, Concubine Jiang was struggling with whether it was Han Rui or the Fang family who were behind the scenes, but Fang Shaobai went directly to Han Rui to ask what happened.

"You just killed them?"

Fang Shaobai used interrogative sentences, but his tone was affirmative.

His expression was not relaxed, and he said in a deep voice, "You shouldn't have done this."

"Fang Zhengcai's incident last time, it can be said that there is no way to find someone else, so you have to take the risk yourself... But now it's here again... the son of a daughter, you can't sit down. A Rui, no matter how good your kung fu is, you are not Jianghu people."

"Is it really good to use this method to solve everything?"

Fang Shaobai didn't want Han Rui to become a lunatic who would kill people at every turn, nor did he want him to always use this kind of method with no room for change to solve problems.Once Han Rui goes down this road, the result will be very dangerous...

"But it works well, doesn't it?"

Han Rui shrugged and said, "The Jiang family's momentum has weakened again, isn't it good?"

"Then you can't always be like this!"

Fang Shaobai lowered his voice and said, "Are you really going to kill like this? You will destroy yourself!"

"...Brother Shaobai, I know what you are worried about."

Han Rui smiled.

"I promise you, I will do less of this kind of dirty work... In fact, if it wasn't for self-protection, I wouldn't be bothered to do it. Besides, I didn't do it this time."

"Not you?" Fang Shaobai was stunned.

Not Han Rui, who else?

"You'll know later..."

Han Rui smiled mysteriously and did not continue.

The "cooperation" with that boy named Fengyu seems...can continue...the other party did a good job.

Although, he still doesn't intend to fully trust the other party...
