Rather be a concubine

Chapter 217
Bo Yuqiao now pursed her lips, stared at the resolute man in front of her apricot eyes, and then spoke directly with a determination that cannot be ignored.

"Brother, Your Majesty will not agree to your resignation. Now, the elder brother has just passed the age of weak crown, and he is also very outstanding among his peers. Our Emperor Chongwen is a rare sage monarch, so we will not let you go." Waiting for handsomeness is wasted."

To be honest, Bo Yuqiao really admired Bo Qingyuan a lot, but because the Cheng family was in the middle, the two cousins ​​were separated by a layer after all, and it was impossible for them to be too close.

Hearing Bo Yuqiao's words, Bo Qingyuan couldn't help but secretly sighed, and stopped talking.Now that things are going on, Bo Qingyuan really has a hard time making a choice, how can he make up for his mother's horrific mistake, now he is the only man with an official position in the Bo family, and the second uncle has already been dismissed In the imperial prison.Because of this, presumably the life of the second wife is not as easy as it used to be.

Thinking of this, Bo Qingyuan felt sad, and he didn't stay in Qiongzhi Pavilion for long, so he got up and left.

Looking at Bo Qingyuan's back, Bo Yuqiao frowned slightly, but made up her mind.Even though Bo Qingyuan is an excellent son-in-law, between Cheng Shi and her, Auntie's life is still saved. If this revenge is not avenged, Bo Yuqiao even looks down on herself.In this way, she and Bo Qingyuan may be doomed to be on opposing sides in the future, and there is no way out.

After nightfall, Ah Zhu did not forget Bo Yuqiao's orders, so she took the mist she got from Qin Yong and went straight to the Shouwu Courtyard where the old lady lived, and counted all the things that the young lady ordered before. Informed the old lady, the old lady was already anxious and anxious, and the effect of the fragrance made the old lady feel dazed, and she didn't notice anything unusual.

The next day, when Bo Yuqiao dipped in the green salt and brushed her teeth, Huang Ying, the servant girl, rushed into the ear room in a panic, blessed her body at Bo Yuqiao, and then hurriedly spoke.

"Miss, something is wrong! The old lady has reported to the police!"

Although Huang Ying's words were vague, but because Bo Yuqiao set up the situation herself, she naturally knew it very clearly.The old lady's report to the police must have something to do with Bo Rao's death.After all, last night, Azhu, the maid, did her busy work in vain. If she didn't get results, Bo Yuqiao would think of making a loss-making deal.

Bo Yuqiao pursed her lips, and then asked a question.

"Did the old lady report the matter of my aunt to the Shuntian Mansion?"

Hearing what Bo Yuqiao uttered, Huang Ying's pretty face showed a trace of admiration, she had already guessed the matter before she said it out, she was really extremely clever.

"Miss, it's true. Earlier, the old lady invited her to come to her house to conduct an autopsy on her aunt, but she didn't know what the result was. Early this morning, the arrester who had been to our Qiongzhi Pavilion before entered the mourning hall. Stay outside the mourning hall of my aunt, and prevent others from approaching the mourning hall."

Bo Yuqiao knew very well that the police officers probably did this to protect Bo Rao's body, so that if the killer had a ghost in their hearts and damaged Bo Rao's body, there would be no evidence to bring her to justice. , isn't this making the brothers in Shuntian Mansion busy for nothing?

Presumably the old lady has already informed the people of Shuntian Mansion that the cause of Bo Rao's death is related to Shuishui point, what they need to do now is to find out the identity of the person who did the murder.

Now the old lady has doubts about Cheng, but since she has not found any evidence, she dare not act rashly.

But now the old lady doesn't dare to delay any longer, for fear that Cheng's ruthless woman will reveal all the dirty things between Zheng'er and Rao'er, and then not only will their Bofu's face be disgraced, but even those who Those who are related by marriage to the Bo Mansion probably won't let it go.

In order to save Bo Zheng's life, even though the old lady was cruel, she didn't feel any guilt.There was no overnight feud between mother and son. Even though Ri Bozheng's attitude towards the old lady was a little presumptuous, in the old lady's mind, the son was just ignorant.

Now Bo Yuqiao guessed the old lady's thoughts thoroughly, and immediately spoke to Huang Ying, a maid.

"Huang Ying, go look for Tsing Yi later, and let him pay attention to the clues of the police to investigate the case. If there is any change, come back and report to me immediately!"

Huang Ying is Bo Yuqiao's confidant, so naturally she knew how much Miss really valued her aunt's matter, so she respectfully agreed immediately, and then she didn't dare to delay, she went out of the ear room, she must be looking for this guy in Tsing Yi.

After Huang Ying left, Bo Yuqiao, under Su Mo's service, took warm spring water to cleanse her face, then left the ear room and headed towards the dining hall.

Investigating cases in Bo Mansion is not really a good job for the police of Shuntian Mansion.However, the person who reported to the official was the old lady of the Bo Mansion, and also the wife of the second rank, they couldn't ignore it in Shuntian Mansion, so they had to bite the bullet and enter the Bo Mansion.

Aunt Bo Rao was murdered at first sight, and even the old lady knew that Bo Rao died from acupuncture at Shuishui point.Even so, it is quite difficult for these policemen to solve the case. After all, the dead can't spit out, so how can they tell a little bit of evidence?

The officials in the Shuntian Mansion took the case with no hesitation. Now that they couldn't find any evidence, they had to find an experienced foreman to inspect Bo Rao's body carefully. What other clues can be found.

The promoter of Shuntian Mansion is named Wu Yuan, and now he is over the age, although his appearance is not very outstanding, but he has a very blessed face, even if others see him, he will not feel any ill feeling.Even Yu Fan, the governor of Shuntian Mansion, once said that it is a pity that Wu Yuan is in Shuntian Mansion. If he goes to do business, he must gain a lot.

Such words are just a joke, after all, scholars, farmers, businessmen, scholars are the first and businessmen are the last.Although Wu Yuan is just a small pusher of the sixth rank, he is much more respectable than a businessman, how can he be compared?Yu Fan's joking words were really rude, so Wu Yuan also remembered them in his heart, but the latter didn't show any clues.

At this moment Wu Yuan was also in the mourning hall, watching the butcher with a gray beard remove all the shrouds from Bo Rao's body, revealing a body with traces.Now Bo Rao has been dead for a few days, although because of the extremely low temperature in the mourning hall, people always put ice basins in it, just for fear that this aunt's body will rot.

Because of this, Bo Rao's body was preserved intact, except for some bruises, even the turbidity on his body was not removed.

Wu Zuo, who is now over fifty years old, raises his hand to hold Bo Rao's bald head, looking at the blood halo in the center of the fontanel bone on the top of his head, it doesn't seem to be fake at all, it seems that the cause of death that the old lady said should be true.

Wu Yuan was not light in stature, so he stood behind Wu Zuo and asked a question.

"Can you find any clues?"

Hearing Wu Yuan's question, Wu Zuo frowned and shook his head straight away.If it is so easy to find evidence, what is the use of Shuntian Mansion?

"Officer Wu Tui should be patient with this. Although the aunt of the Bofu in front of me died by acupuncture at the Shuishui point, but looking at the traces of pickling on her body, if the old lady didn't make up her mind to do an autopsy, I'm afraid this aunt I'm going to bear the name of dying on the bed!"

Now Wu Zuo raised Bo Rao's extremely stiff arm, and inspected it carefully, even the blue or purple hickey marks on the arm were never let go.

Huang Tian paid off, and he was very experienced in operation after all, and finally found some flesh and blood under the nails of Bo Rao's right hand, which was still stained with dried blood.

Seeing Wu Zuo measuring Bo Rao's fingers carefully, Wu Yuan who was behind him also stepped forward and followed closely to check.

"Could it be that the flakes of flesh under her fingernails were left by the murderer? And seeing the blood on it, the murderer may still have scars on his body. Now it can be regarded as a good clue."

Hearing Wu Yuan speak, the old butcher opened his mouth with a hint of disdain in his cool eyes.

"Did you read all the way into the dog's belly in the "Winning of Wrongs"? Even if the aunt of the Bofu family has dander on her body, it does not mean that the injured person is the murderer. possible."

Wu Yuan didn't have the slightest temper to be scolded by the old scorpion. Although he said that the official position was much higher for the scorpion, the scorpion in front of him was in the Shuntian Mansion, and he could be called a senior. After being taught a lesson by the senior, Wu Yuan had to touch it. Nose, secretly scolding himself for not being good at learning.

"However, this aunt's hand with dandruff is the right hand, and only the index finger, middle finger, and ring finger have bloodstains. Presumably the injured person should have three bloodstains on the left half of his body. If you follow this clue , maybe we can find out the big fish behind the scenes."

Hearing this, Wu Yuan also knew that what Wu Zuo said was reasonable, so he immediately nodded.After a while, he asked again.

"If that's the case, then where are we going to find this injured person? Is it possible to turn the entire capital upside down?"

Wu Yuan was about to say these words, and he himself sensed that something was wrong, so he turned his head straight away, not wanting to see the old man with contemptuous eyes.

"Didn't the old lady say before that she kept the two maids who served her aunt and did not deal with them. As the official of Shuntian Mansion, you must be a good interrogator, so I don't need to mention it to you." gone."

Hearing this, Wu Yuan nodded again and again, as respectful as a quail, making the old butcher feel a little silent, for fear that he had overcorrected.
