Although Chu Mingyang and Mrs. Gu Er were not suspected of murder, Mrs. Gu Er came to her house because of the money during the day, and at night Chu Mingyang and Yu Wenjun argued and even fought over the money. Therefore, both sides of Jingzhao Mansion had to
Ask questions.
After Mrs. Gu Er went to ask Yu Wenjun today, she thought she was almost certain to get the money back. She thought that although she had a lot to worry about now, she still made a relatively generous profit, which was a little comfort.
Little did she know that late at night, people from the Jingzhao Mansion came to wake her up and told her that the eldest prince had been assassinated. She was completely confused.
Because something happened to the eldest prince, Jingzhao Mansion came over overnight, so Lord Gu also came out, and some elders of the Gu family who lived in the manor also got up to inquire.
Mrs. Gu Er's money was originally private money. In fact, she had deducted a lot of money from the public in recent years. A few years ago, Mrs. Gu Hou was ill and asked her to take care of the affairs of the palace. In those years, she withheld a lot of money.
, Otherwise, how could she save hundreds of thousands of taels by herself?
Therefore, when everyone's parents were present and the eldest brother of the house was also present, she did not dare to talk about the loan. She only said that she had borrowed several thousand taels of silver from Chu Mingyang. When she saw that she had not paid it back for a long time, she went to the door to ask for help because Chu Mingyang was not there.
, she told the eldest prince.
Mrs. Gu Hou felt a little suspicious. She knew very well that this sister-in-law was very stingy. She had always been fawning over Chu Mingyang's mother. However, after Chu Mingyang's mother died, she had never seen her have anything to do with Chu Mingyang's cousin.
Sincerely, if you come here for a break in the autumn breeze and give a dozen or so taels in exchange for saving face, it may be possible, but it is impossible to lend Chu Mingyang thousands of taels of silver.
However, now that Jingzhao Mansion came to ask questions, she would definitely not say much. After all, this kind of routine questioning would just go by.
But Gu Si and Yuan Qingping knew it well, so after the people from Jingzhao Mansion asked, Gu Si went in to talk to Mr. Gu about the matter. Mr. Gu was furious when he heard this and called Mr. Gu.
Come here and ask him to clean up the affairs of the second room, so as not to implicate the Hou Mansion.
This Mr. Gu Er has a soft character, but when it comes to important family matters, he still stood firm and questioned her. Mrs. Gu Er had no choice but to recruit them all. The source of the money was also explained. Mr. Gu grabbed hold of her.
She went to the head of the house to plead guilty and promised that if the money was recovered, most of it would be returned to the palace.
Mrs. Gu Er was angry and resentful. She hated Chu Mingyang to the core. She knew that Chu Mingyang had borrowed money from many people, so she told the servants in the house that night and went out the next day to spread the news that Chu Mingyang was a lot of evil.
man's silver.
Originally, Chu Mingyang's deadline for repaying the interest was delayed again and again during this period. Although he was able to pay it in the end, it also made the ladies uneasy. As soon as this happened, everyone had to go to Chu Mingyang to ask for money.
But where did Chu Mingyang go? She wasn't in the courtyard, and she didn't go back to Chu's house. It was quite difficult to find her, but in the end Jingzhao Mansion found her first in Mingyue Temple.
When questioned, she said that she and Yu Wenjun had a quarrel over some trivial matters, and Yu Wenjun even beat her up. She really couldn't live with Yu Wenjun anymore, but she didn't dare to go back to Chu's house even though she was injured, because she was afraid of her grandfather.
If he was sad and angry, he would start a fight with Yu Wenjun because of her, so after feeling sad outside for a while, he thought it would be boring to live this life, so he went to the nunnery to find a place to stay, and planned to become a nun.
These words sounded reasonable. When the policeman reported back to Yu Wenhao, Yu Wenhao knew it, because his people had been keeping an eye on Lin Xiao, and after Chu Mingyang left the house, he first went to find Lin Xiao.
Of course, this part can be skipped, as it will not be of much help to the case. Lin Xiao never left, but only asked someone to take Chu Mingyang to the nunnery, so he was not the murderer.
After Chu Mingyang was brought back to Jingzhao Mansion for questioning, King Qi had her sent back to the Chu family. He was extremely kind and righteous to his former sister-in-law.
