"Fourth brother." Yinxiang didn't let anyone know, he just opened the study door and walked in. When he was outside just now, the dog had told him that Yinzhen was back.
Yinzhen was sitting behind the desk reading the book. When he heard his voice, he raised his head and glanced. He dropped the book in his hand and said coldly: "Do you still know that I am your fourth brother? Who allowed you to go to Jingsiju without authorization?
"
Yinxiang didn't expect that he would get the news so quickly. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Isn't it because the fourth brother was not here just now? I was worried about my sister-in-law, so..."
"So you just turned a deaf ear to my prohibition, hum." Yinzhen has always had a cold temperament, and no one in the house dares to violate his words. Only this thirteenth brother who grew up together dares not to take his words seriously.
"Fourth brother, don't be too busy blaming me. I'm here to talk to you about something important." Yinxiang knew that Fourth Brother would not really be angry with him, so he was not worried and took a sip of the tea handed by Zhou Yong.
He said seriously: "Fourth brother, do you really think that my sister-in-law poisoned Li Fujin?"
"Why, don't you think so?" Yinzhen's tone was very flat, and he couldn't hear any emotion or anger.
Yinxiang immediately explained his suspicions and what Li Wei said in detail, and then said: "I know this is the fourth brother's housework and I shouldn't get involved in it, but I know very well what my sister-in-law is like. She
I would never do such a vicious thing." He said this last sentence firmly.
Surprisingly, Yinzhen didn't show much surprise when he heard that he suspected Li's false pregnancy, but Xuan Yixuan's eyebrows calmed down. After Yinxiang finished speaking, he took out a few pictures from the small grid under the desk.
He handed the paper to him and said, "Look at it."
"Autopsy report? Is there a confession?" Yinxiang looked at the top four words on the piece of paper in his hand in astonishment, "Fourth brother, why are you showing me this thing? I'm not a gentleman sitting in court."
Yinzhen tapped the table where the sun was shining and said: "Look clearly, this is the autopsy report issued by the Shuntian Mansion Office. It is about the female body found in the river a month ago. It is initially determined that it should be that of a woman."
An old woman in her fifties was raped
The woman was disfigured and suffocated before being thrown into the water. At that time, a family happened to report that an old woman was missing, so the governor concluded that the female body should be that of the missing old woman. However, he did not know who the old woman had a grudge with and died tragically. The case has been going on to this day.
Pending.”
Although he could understand what Yinzhen said, Yinxiang was still confused. What did this have to do with him?
"The missing old woman's surname is Liu. She is a well-known stable woman in Beijing. She delivered Xiuer and Yueru's children that day." Yinzhen said this sentence lightly and tried to take it back, "If you don't want to see it,
Give it back to me if you can."
"That's not possible." When Yinxiang heard what was going on, he clenched the paper he was about to throw away tightly, and at the same time a sudden smile appeared on his face, "It turns out that Fourth Brother, you have been suspicious for a long time and sent someone to investigate.
,Fortunately, I’m still thinking about how to convince Fourth Brother.”
Zhou Yong smiled and said: "The Fourth Master ordered his servant to investigate this matter as early as a month ago, but he only ordered not to disclose it before the results were obtained, so the Thirteenth Master is the third master besides the Fourth Master, the servant and the dog.
Four people know."
"I wasn't suspicious at first, I just wanted to be cautious to avoid being wrongly accused, but I didn't want to find out that Mrs. Liu was killed on the day she left the house after delivering the baby." The spring scenery outside the window was beautiful, but Yinzhen's expression was expressionless.
Depression, no matter what the truth is, is not a happy thing for him.
Yinxiang carefully read the submission and the confession in his hand, and suddenly he raised his head and said, "Fourth brother, this is not right. The confession said that Mrs. Liu had fallen down before, so there was a scar on her calf, but the autopsy report did not mention it.
Mentioned this."
"I saw it too." Yinzhen pinched his eyebrows and said: "I have asked Zhou Yong to confirm it. It is not a mistake in writing. There are indeed no wounds on the body, and the deceased is beyond recognition. It is obvious that he does not want people to recognize him.
If she comes out, it's very likely that the body is not Mrs. Liu."
"So Mrs. Liu is not dead yet?" Yinxiang also understood that Mrs. Liu was the key to this matter. As long as he found her, all problems would be solved.
Just as Yinzhen was about to speak, there was a knock on the door outside. Zhou Yong hurried forward to answer the door, and then came back and said: "Fourth Master, I found him. He is indeed hiding in his hometown. He is on his way back to Beijing."
"Tell them to be careful." As soon as Yinzhen finished speaking, Yinxiang couldn't wait to ask, but he found Mrs. Liu. When Yinzhen nodded, he clapped his hands with joy: "God really has the vision to leave her alive. It seems
The truth will soon come to light.”
Yinzhen was not as happy as he was, and vaguely felt that something was wrong. If someone was really chasing her, how could an old woman escape, and why would the killer find a body similar to Mrs. Liu's to replace her?
Is she hiding something from the truth?
Time passed by in such doubts. On a morning in April with a misty spring rain, Yinzhen suddenly ordered everyone to be summoned to Hanyuan Residence.
This was the first time for such a large-scale summons to be summoned to the Prince of Yongjun. Knowing that something big was going to happen, the girls did not dare to neglect. They came to Hanyuan Residence one after another. Yinzhen had not yet arrived, and only Nala was sitting on it. Waiting for the ceremony.
Later, Mrs. Song asked in a low voice: "Fu Jin, do you know why the fourth master summoned us here?"
Nala stroked the gold thorn pattern on her sleeve and said warmly: "The prince will be here soon. Wouldn't it be better for my sister to ask the prince herself then?"
"Yes." Ms. Song touched her nose and sat down in a gray voice. Not long after, Ms. Nian arrived. She was wearing a rose-red embroidered apricot forest and spring swallow's flag dress, and a pair of purple jade embellished pearl steps hanging from her hair.
Shake, even in this slightly gloomy day
Ran Shuo shone brightly and was dazzling. After giving a brief bow, he sat down next to Nala's left head. Immediately, a little maid served tea. Nian just took a sip and frowned and said: "This new tea has been served one after another.
Why is Fujin still using old tea from last year?"
Nala glanced at her and smiled and said: "This new tea hasn't been delivered yet, so I can only use the old tea first. If my sister is not used to it, I will ask them to change it to a fresh cup of scented tea."
"No need." Mr. Nian put the tea cup on the small table and said leisurely: "It's okay if you don't drink for a while. I thought Fujin was reluctant to bring new tea to make it, but it turns out he hasn't yet.
Delivered." She
He glanced at Lu Yi and said: "Send some of this year's Bi Luochun sent by the House of Internal Affairs later to my direct descendant Fujin. The prince knows that I am a tricky person and can't drink the old tea, so I specially sent new tea from the House of Internal Affairs.
Give me your body."
Nala's eyes dimmed and then he said with a smile: "It's hard for my sister to have such intentions. In fact, for me, no matter whether I drink new tea or old tea, the taste is the same. I'm not as picky as my sister."
Nian raised her eyebrows and smiled softly, with a hint of arrogance in it. While she was talking, Li arrived. After bowing, she smiled and said: "I'm late, please forgive me for coming. I should have come long ago, but suddenly before going out, I
She kept crying and it took her a long time to calm down."
When she heard about Hong Shi, Ye Xiu, who had been sitting quietly next to her, suddenly had this longing in her eyes. If her daughter were alive, she would be like Hong Shi, crying or laughing...
Nala took a deep look at her and said with a smile: "You have to take care of Hongshi and Lingxi. Naturally, it's harder than the rest of us. Besides, Hongshi was born prematurely. You, the mother-in-law, have to put in more effort."
good."
"I have taken note of it." Mrs. Li leaned forward and agreed, her eyes feeling slightly proud as she glanced at the hesitant-looking Nian.
