Lu Zhiyao's words made Li Yuzhen feel something was wrong several times, and she became more and more confused about Lu Zhiyao's true identity. When she realized that Lu Zhiyao really wanted to kill her unintentionally, she gradually calmed down a little.
Lu Zhiyao's words made it very clear. You can only choose one of the two: cooperate with her or choose to die. Li Yuzhen is not stupid, and of course she doesn't want to die. She talked to Lu Zhiyao fearfully, thinking that Lu Zhiyao
When talking about Han Mu, Li Yuzhen was even more sure that this woman was difficult to deal with.
"How many benefits did you give Han Mu to make him willing to help you like that?"
Lu Zhiyao asked Li Yuzhen calmly and calmly. Li Yuzhen was still stiff at first and did not admit that she had anything to do with the Minister of Justice. But later she realized that she might be killed if she continued like this, so she risked her life and confessed everything.
.
Lu Zhiyao's methods of "scare" people and interrogation were all learned from Xia Tian, and he had no trouble dealing with those prisoners, let alone the mere Li Yuzhen.
She listened to Li Yuzhen explain the process of joining forces with Han Mu, and sneered secretly. Minister of the Ministry of Justice, this is such a high position! Han Mu is not satisfied yet. But it also shows that the Gu family really went to great lengths to deal with the Chu family this time.
He had spent a lot of money, otherwise Han Mu would not have wavered.
Lu Zhiyao stayed in Li Yuzhen's room for a long time, told Li Yuzhen everything he needed to say, and planned to leave. Taking Gu Shi's body with him, Lu Zhiyao walked out of Li Yuzhen's room in a swagger. Li Yuzhen looked at her helplessly.
He left and watched as she jumped up and disappeared, and her whole body collapsed to the ground.
Should she report it to the official or should she really go on like this? Li Yuzhen was very confused. Even if she asked Han Mu for this matter, he would not be able to do anything for her. Because they had already agreed at the beginning, Han Mu would not only help them
Apart from that job, everything else had nothing to do with him. And Li Yuzhen thought that it was impossible for Han Mu to get into such a big trouble for herself.
What should I do if I report it to the government and the government investigates it? Gu Ran's death was originally related to him. If he is really found, wouldn't everything be in vain? Moreover, Han Mu and the Yamen also have
They have a close relationship. If Han Mu is worried about involving him and does something to him, what will he do then?
How much of what the woman just said can be believed? Why should she help him? What is her purpose? There is a wolf in front of her and a tiger in the back. Now Li Yuzhen has no support around her. It is even more difficult for her to help him in a short time.
You will determine your own position within.
Lu Zhiyao left the Gu Mansion, but he did not simply believe in Li Yuzhen. When he found Zhan Yulong who had followed her all the way and stayed outside the mansion, Lu Zhiyao smiled and told him directly without saying anything.
Keep an eye on Li Yuzhen's every move and not allow her to have any contact with anyone from the government.
Li Yuzhen gradually returned to her usual state long after Lu Zhiyao left. After staring at the pool of blood in front of the bed for a while, she brought the basin over as if going crazy and wiped the floor vigorously with a rag.
, until finally I was too tired to do anything else and could only sit on the ground leaning against the bed.
Everything recently has been like a nightmare to Li Yuzhen. The death of her son has been a huge blow to her. Over the years, she has always felt that it was only natural for Gu Nuochu to take over the Gu family's business, and she has been looking forward to it.
The day when her son became a great success and married a wife and had children. She admitted that Gu Nuochu was spoiled by her, and all the money she gave Gu Nuochu behind Gu Ran's back was spent on unclean things.
That's why Gu Ran wanted to marry another wife and have a son after getting angry again and again.
After Gu Nuochu's death, Gu Ran's thoughts became more obvious and he also put them into action. Li Yuzhen was worried that one day she would have nothing, and she would not even be able to keep her position as eldest lady, so she was very worried.
As for Gu Ran's younger brother Gu Shi, he is nominally the second head of the Gu family, but in fact he is nothing. He has no access to the Gu family's business at all, and the money he can spend is not more than half that of the dead Gu Nuochu.
What he did every day was to help Gu Ran run errands, so after being depressed for a long time, he thought of a way, which was to kill Gu Ran.
Gu Shi has always known about the existence of Feihe Tower. In fact, when Gu Nuochu helped Ye Shengnan find people from Feihe Tower and wanted to murder Lu Zhiyao, he secretly helped. He originally thought that Gu Nuochu was
After his death, his status in the Gu family was able to rise a bit, but later he realized that he was completely wrong. After another quarrel with Gu Ran, Gu Shi had murderous intentions in his heart, and coincidentally he discovered something was wrong with his sister-in-law Li Yuzhen.
So he had a bad idea.
After Gu Ran brought his new love back to the Gu Mansion, but the wedding was delayed due to the death of their son, Gu Shi and Li Yuzhen started taking action. After Gu Ran's death, the woman who had not yet married into the Gu family was also
Li Yuzhen was driven away.
Many of the slaves in the Gu family know more or less why Gu Ran died, but they dare not say it. After all, compared to the dead, the living Gu Shi and Li Yuzhen have a much greater deterrent effect on them.
In addition, Gu Ran's death was related to Feihe Tower, so they didn't dare to say anything more. The second master could spend money to find someone to kill the master, so why can't he kill minions like them?
Gu Shi's body was found near Han Mu's mansion. He was fatally stabbed. No one would think about why he died near Han Mu's mansion. What people were concerned about was that several men in the Gu family died one after another, leaving only a few women.
, it is estimated that the Gu family will collapse in less than a year. They are also curious about who the Gu family has offended to end up in such a tragic end.
There is a very obvious mark near Gu Shi's body, which is the same symbol as the one the Feihe Tower killer used after he killed someone. However, instead of the word "Crane" written on it, it has the word "Sin" written on it.
The people of Feihe Tower have always been daring, and the court could not do anything about them. Of course they would not leave other marks after killing people to gain the prestige of others. So rumors soon spread about this murder case.
There are many guesses. Some people even say that the capital is not at peace and that the world is going to be in chaos. It is probably that someone wants to go against Feihe Tower, so they also killed the Gu family and tampered with the equipment that Feihe Tower has been using for many years.
The mark stays there.
But nothing others said could change Han Mu's mood at this moment. He had a ghost in his heart, and the place where Gu Shi died was right next to his house, which made Han Mu have to worry.
It is true that he is a high-ranking official, and the salary he receives from the court every year is much larger than that of other ministers. But the money pales in comparison to what the Gu family gives him.
Han Mu has a hobby, which is collecting jade. So when Gu Shi proposed to give him a jade shop, Han Mu was really moved. It also happened that he got some incredible news about the Xia family.
, so Han Mu came up with such a good way, he could not only help the Gu family casually, get what he wanted, but also make a contribution in front of the emperor.
Han Mu, who felt vaguely uneasy, had decided not to interfere in the affairs of the Gu and Chu family. Anyway, Gu Shi was dead and he got what he deserved. Even if he didn't need the jade shop, he still got a lot of good things. As everyone knows,
Even if he wants to escape now, it's too late.
Not many people knew that Xia Han was still alive, but Nangong Nuoer and Lin Yixiang still knew.
The relationship between the two has been tepid since they got married. Although the relationship between the two was not bad, it was not as good as Nangong Nuoer had imagined before.
That day when Nangong Nuo'er walked into the room, she saw Lin Yixiang in a daze. Thinking about how cold he had been to her in the past few days, Nangong Nuo'er stepped forward and asked coldly: "What are you thinking about?"
Lin Yixiang raised his head to meet Nangong Nuoer's gaze and replied perfunctorily: "I didn't think about anything."
"Thinking about nothing?" Nangong Nuo'er smiled sarcastically and said jokingly: "You're not thinking about Xia Han, are you? Or are you thinking... It would be great if Xia Yao was the one who was alive instead of Xia Han.
?”
Nangong Nuoer mentioned Xia Yao intentionally or unintentionally, which made Lin Yixiang feel a little uncomfortable.
"Nuoer, you are thinking too much." Lin Yixiang said calmly: "Xia Yao died in my hands. If I was really unwilling to let her die, then I would not have let her die in the first place."
Lin Yixiang's eyes were so firm that Nangong Nuo'er couldn't tell whether his words were true or false for a moment. But when Nangong Nuo'er was thinking hard, Lin Yixiang pulled her towards the bed, which was a rare opportunity for Nangong Nuo'er.
Red face.
After reading the story, Nangong Nuoer suddenly remembered something. Every woman always wants to give birth to a child for the man she loves, and even she, Nangong Nuoer, is no exception. She has been married to Lin Yixiang for some time, but
There has been no movement in her stomach, which makes Nangong Nuo'er feel a little strange. She once made fun of Lu Zhiqing because of her child's problems, and she didn't want to be like Lu Zhiqing and have others use this matter as an excuse in the future.
Without telling Lin Yixiang, Nangong Nuoer came to the Imperial Physician Hall alone the next day when he entered the palace and found Ruan Chen. He told Ruan Chen the reason for his coming here. After hearing this, Ruan Chen naturally did not dare to neglect and hurriedly greeted Nangong.
Nuoer went to the side room to diagnose his pulse.
"The princess's body is fine." Ruan Chen said after a careful examination, "I will prescribe some tonics for the princess later. You can't rush this kind of thing, just let it take its course."
Ruan Chen has always been the exclusive physician for the emperor and important concubines in the harem. Since he said this to Nangong Nuo'er, he didn't think much about it. After thanking Ruan Chen, Nangong Nuo'er left with a few sets of medicine. Ruan Chen looked at Nangong Nuo'er.
He sighed quietly as he walked away from his back.
Nangong Nuo'er's body can be said to be normal or abnormal. She took a lot of medicines that are not conducive to pregnancy. Although it is not harmful to her body, it will not be so easy if she really wants to have a child. If she keeps
If she eats it, the consequences will be more serious. Judging from her actions when she came here today, she probably didn't know about it.
Ruan Chen has been with the emperor for many years, and he knows many things better than anyone else. The daughter of General Nangong and the princess of Prince Luo. On the surface, she seems to be such a beautiful person, but in reality?
Ruan Chen smiled bitterly, shook his head and turned back to the room.
