Xu Qinghuan vaguely remembered that there was some turmoil at this time in his previous life, but it quickly calmed down regarding the navy in the southeast.
However, there was a great change in the palace later. On the twenty-fifth day of the first lunar month, a fire suddenly broke out in the palace during the Grain Filling Festival. Fortunately, the emperor and the queen were protected by guards.
Queen Yu was so frightened that she fell ill and passed away soon after.
The twenty-fifth day of the first lunar month was the winter and spring season, which was inconsistent with the current season, and it happened after she got married to Li Xu, so it was definitely not this year.
She couldn't connect the two things.
After rebirth, there have been too many changes, and everything is no longer on the original track.
The person who killed Wang Yun in his previous life was Song Chengxuan. The battle in the southeast must also be related to Song Chengxuan, but now Song Chengxuan doesn't know what he did in his previous life.
Xu Qinghuan calmed down and tried to speculate.
Everything was as she expected. The Sun family transported several boxes of firearms to Dazhou. This igniter cannot be changed from generation to generation, but it can play a great role at critical moments.
If these firearms are in Wang Yun's hands, they will definitely be put to good use by him. They should have made such a plan, but now that Wang Yun has been arrested, people outside are like headless flies who have lost their way. If she had not brought Wang Yun to
If Yun's conspiracy is exposed, maybe those people will find ways to hide themselves and wait until everything calms down before taking action.
But now that all the truth has been revealed, and the Zhang family knows that they will try their best to catch the fish that slipped through the net, those people naturally feel the crisis.
They have been dormant for many years, just to avenge the Zhang family. They will never wait for the Zhang family to attack them. Then they will seize the opportunity and make a desperate move, fighting to the death and using all the sharp weapons in their hands that can hurt people.
She has seen the power of firearms.
One can imagine what results these will have when used in Beijing.
She may have solved a hidden danger for the future, but what she got in exchange was an immediate crisis.
"Run'an, who is this young lady? Can you help us?"
The woman next to Sun Runan looked at Xu Qinghuan.
"Aunt..." Sun Run'an said, "That's our family matter."
"It's a family matter, but it's also related to this case. I heard this eldest lady asking about the case... You call her Miss Xu, she is the eldest lady who saved you."
When Xu Qinghuan came back to her senses, she happened to see the woman looking her up and down. The woman was not dressed luxuriously, and she looked a bit plain. She was like a female member of a branch of the clan, relying on her direct clan members.
Do some work to earn some money to survive.
The woman looked at her with a bit of joy and expectation.
"Miss, I want to ask you whether Run'an is not Mr. Sun Er's biological child, so it has nothing to do with this case. Run'an is my child. Mr. Sun Er couldn't give birth to an heir in my house.
The reason why General Run'an was taken away was because we didn't write a document back then, but there were two elders in the clan who knew about it.
Mr. Sun Er told us not to tell others that he is dead now, and if something like this happens, we can't involve Run'an."
Aunt Sun's words made Sun Run'an feel a little embarrassed, not because he disliked being from a branch of the Sun family, but because such secret family matters should not disturb Miss Xu.
"Auntie, stop talking," Sun Run'an said, "Although I am not my father's biological child, I have always grown up at home. I have been well-fed and well-fed since I was a child. How can I want to get away when something goes wrong?"
Aunt Sun's family said: "I just thought you were going to enjoy your blessings. Who knew you would be here today?"
No wonder Mrs. Sun Er would attack Sun Run'an. It turned out that Sun Run'an was not her biological child. Xu Qinghuan's doubts about Mrs. Sun Er were now solved. She looked at Sun's aunt: "Mr. Sun Er and his wife were not very old back then, so why would they rather
I don’t have to wait a few years to have a step-heir secretly.”
"What are you waiting for?" Aunt Sun hesitated, "You are a little girl who doesn't understand this. Mr. Sun Er was injured and it is impossible to have a child. The family invited many doctors to see him, but they were of no use. Mr. Sun Er was injured.
My wife still didn't want to give up. After adopting Run'an, she tried every means to conceive a child using secret medicine. Unexpectedly, the baby was stillborn within a month, and Mr. Sun Er gave up. Maybe it was at that time that the couple gave birth to a baby.
Otherwise, how could Mrs. Sun Er do this?"
When Xu Qinghuan heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up. How could she have forgotten this link? An indispensable link in the whole case was Mrs. Sun Er. Mrs. Sun Er wanted to tell Master Sun Er and Master Yan what they were going to confess to the court.
Tell Zhang Yucong, and Zhang Yucong will start killing people.
This proves that the murderer knows the Sun family very well and may have been hiding in the Sun family and Zhang family for a long time.
The murderer hated Zhang Yucong the most. If the murderer had firearms in his hands, the first one would naturally be used by the Zhang family. After discovering that the conspiracy was exposed, they might have made a prompt decision to bury those firearms.
"Miss," the steward of Princess Huayang's Mansion hurried over, "The eldest princess asked me to tell you that the He Miao family in the Taoist temple beside the Bishui River has died."
He Miao poured kerosene all over his body and set a fire.
The people who were watching He Miao outside the Taoist temple realized something was wrong and immediately stepped forward to put out the fire. The fire was extinguished. He Miao was still alive at first, but soon became out of breath. When the doctor invited by the government arrived, He Miao was
already dead.
This quiet Taoist temple seemed to have suddenly become an ominous place.
The eldest princess came forward and ordered people from the Ministry of Punishment to keep an eye on He Miao, but she got this result. The Yamen of the Ministry of Punishment kept complaining to the peak: "We were afraid of being discovered by this old woman, so we stayed very far away. Unexpectedly, she
…”
Another person died.
Xu Qinghuan originally wanted to find the clues she wanted through He Miao, but she never expected that He Miao would make such a determination.
This is their last ditch effort.
Before the Zhang family came to find her, He Miao took her own life first, so that she would not fall into the hands of the Zhang family again.
Zhang Yucong rushed over with his people, and when he saw the blackened corpse on the ground, he looked disgusted: "It is indeed a remnant of evil that was not wiped out back then. Otherwise, how could he commit suicide out of fear of crime?"
These people only dare to oppose him in secret. Once they are discovered, there is only one way to go.
Zhang Yucong smiled coldly and looked at the eldest lady of the Anyihou Mansion next to her. Sooner or later, the Anyihou Mansion would also end up like this.
"Sir Zhang," Xu Qinghuan stepped forward, "do you think this case can be settled?"
Zhang Yucong narrowed his eyes: "Go back and learn etiquette first, and then come and talk to me."
Xu Qinghuan said: "Master Zhang must think that the Zhang family is now in power and there is nothing the Zhang family cannot do. You may be disappointed."
Zhang Yucong sneered: "Even your father can't say such things in front of me. Don't think that because you are a woman, I will..."
As soon as I said this, I heard a sound in the darkness.
The source of the sound is far away from here, but everyone can still hear it clearly.
Because they didn’t know what was going on, no one took it to heart.
"Master Zhang, did Mrs. Sun Er tell you why Master Sun Er and Master Yan reported the smuggling matter to the court? I guess Mrs. Sun Er did not make it clear, because the inside story is of great importance and Master Sun will not take it lightly.
Tell others.
I suspect that the uncle of the Sun family went to sea to settle a score with the pirates. When he came back, the pirates forced him to take the goods with him on the ship. The goods disappeared after they landed ashore. The uncle of the Sun family may have guessed or seen what the goods were, so he was panicked.
All day long.”
Zhang Yucong didn't want to hear the girl in front of him continue talking. He turned around and walked forward, but the girl behind him said the last few words.
"I suspect those goods were firearms."
Zhang Yucong's heart suddenly sank.
"Boom!" There was another sound not far away, like thunder on the ground.
