Chapter 946

As soon as the old lady died, Gu Mei put on her filial piety.

The white lantern outside the gate of the daihou mansion was also changed.

Two days in a row, two people died, a terrible word.

The news came out and the capital was shaken.

Even "Zhou life show" has reported the death of Han Wulang and his wife.

The old lady died, as expected.

Han Wulang's death is quite unexpected.

The battle has been settled. The pursuit of Beirong royal court is an opportunity to perform meritorious deeds. How could the noble sons die in the army?

If you die of meritorious service, that's all.

However, Han Wulang's death has nothing to do with his meritorious service.

There are rumors all over the market, and all kinds of speculation and rumors are flying all over the place.

Gu Mei was busy with the funeral, dealing with relatives and friends. There is no way to deal with the rumors in the market.

Gu Jiu sent palace people to visit and ask for help.

Gu Mei, with a haggard face, said to Xu Yousi: "can the court let the Marquis and my son-in-law return to Beijing as soon as possible to take care of the old lady's affairs?"

The weather is hot and can't be stopped for a long time.

Gu Mei was worried that she would have to send the old lady to the temple before the Marquis and his son returned to Beijing. After the monks had finished the ritual, she would be buried directly.

At that time, there will be a grudge.

And the body of Han Wulang.

Gu Mei asked again, "can the court return Wulang's body to us? If it is inconvenient for the imperial court, we can send someone to the northwest to escort the coffin back to Beijing. "

"My wife's request will be reported to your mother truthfully. We'll hear from you later. "

"Thank you very much

"You are welcome."

The porter came to report, and cousin Qu came to visit.

Gu Mei looked disgusted. "What is she doing here?"

"It's a incense stick for the old lady."

Gu Mei rubbed her eyebrows. "Let her in."

Cousin Qu is very pretty in her plain clothes.

Han Wulang's wife saw her in the spirit hall, her eyes spurting fire.

Cousin Qu ignored the people's eyes, wiped her tears, and cried, "grandmother went too suddenly. Some time ago, I was also thinking about my grandmother's 80th birthday and what gifts to prepare. I didn't expect it. In a twinkling of an eye, there was no one. Wuwu... "

"Hypocritical

Han Wulang's wife asked Gu Mei, "how did sister-in-law let her in?"

"After all, it's not good for her to invite her granddaughter to go out to worship."

I cried and my eyes were red.

Cousin Qu wiped away her tears and came to Gu Mei. She glanced at Han Wulang's wife from the corner of her eye.

She said in a low voice, "dear cousin! I don't know if there's anything I can do for you. My cousin is welcome

"You do. There is no need for help

Cousin Qu wiped her eyes and looked like she was going to cry again. "I have written to my mother. Mother didn't know how sad it would be to learn that her grandmother had passed away. What about my aunt? I'll go and see her. "

"No! My wife is not well, so it's not convenient to see foreigners. "

Cousin Qu was hurt and covered her chest. Then she laughed at herself and said, "my big cousin is right. For Hou's house, I am indeed a foreigner. Well, I'll leave now, so as not to be detested. "

"It's rare. It's a little self-knowledge." Han Wulang's wife didn't lower her voice at all. She said this frankly, and all the people around him heard it.

Her face was sad and sad. She wanted to say something, but she left quietly without saying a word.

People who don't know the inside story can't help but sympathize with cousin Qu. It is not the way to treat guests that Han family bullies guests.

"How to treat guests is not a question for outsiders."

In the face of everyone's criticism, Han Wulang's wife directly rebukes them.

Gu Mei made a decision and asked the servant to pull Han Wulang's wife back to the room for reflection.

……

Out of daihou's house, cousin Qu had half a tear on her face.

She went to the market in a carriage. I bought some bright colored cloth to go home and make new clothes.

She wants to be dressed up and bright, and stimulate the women's family members of daihou's house tomorrow.

Hum!

Dare to despise her!

Han Wulang died, and she was still a little sad. After all, it was better.

Now she only feels happy!

It would be better if there were more Han family members dead.

Especially Madame daihou, if she had not obstructed her, she might have been married to daihou's house as a young grandmother.

They don't have to go back to their hometown with their grandmother, Mrs. Qu, and marry the children of unknown generals. It's not bad, but it's not very good.

Return to the mansion with colorful cloth.

Give the cloth to the servant to make new clothes.She was tired and went straight back to her room to have a rest.

Just sat down in front of the dressing table, took off the earrings, only to find that there was one more person in the room.

Her hand shook and her earring almost punctured her finger.

She quickly turned back, "my husband!"

Cousin Qu's husband, surnamed Lin, is called Lin Dalang, general Lin, and old man Lin.

"I don't trust you. Come back and have a look."

Qu's cousin, smiling like a flower, rushed into general Lin's arms. "I miss my husband too."

General Lin laughed and lifted up her collar. "How can you dress so plainly? It's not enough money at home. "

"No. When my grandmother passed away, I came to worship, and naturally I had to dress plain. You are not at the border, how can you suddenly return to Beijing. Is it a change of defense, and there will be no need to go to the northwest from now on? "

Cousin Qu asked curiously.

General Lin said with a smile, "I have a mission. According to the rules, I shouldn't go home. I miss you and the children so much that I can sneak home to have a look. Don't make a statement. If someone finds me sneaking home, I will be punished by military law. "

Cousin Qu nodded again and again, "don't worry, I won't tell others. I don't even tell my subordinates. How long can you stay? "

General Lin bit her ear and said, "tomorrow morning, I will leave the city before dawn."

She immediately got up, went to the door and called the servants, "prepare a table of wine and vegetables. Besides, no one is allowed to come in without my orders. No matter what you hear, don't come in, remember? "

"I remember."

"Go

The couple ate a table of food and wine, and had a couple's life at night.

I don't see you the next day. The maid bravely went to the bedroom window and knocked on the window, "madam, it's time for me to get up. My wife wants to make a new dress. The sewing lady has chosen several styles. Please make your wife's decision. "

After waiting for a long time, there was still no movement in the room.

The servant girl knocked at the window again, "madam, today's newspaper has been bought back. It has news about the daihou house."

Still nothing.

The servant girl hesitated again and again, called a few women, bravely opened the door.

The servant girl picked up the curtain, went into the bedroom and opened the quilt.

"Ah..."

The servant girl's mouth uttered a cry of terror, and everyone was frightened.

The forest house is in chaos!

Because Mrs. Lin and cousin Qu are dead!

Sudden and unexpected death!

And his eyes were wide open, and he was obviously not in his sleep. She didn't expect to die.

When the news reached the daihou mansion, Gu Mei was stunned for a long time.

"Do you know how it died?" She asked the servant.

The servant shook his head and said he didn't know.

"The man suddenly disappeared. Did the servant of Lin family report to the official? As far as I know, cousin Qu has no hidden disease. "

"The housekeeper is not sure whether to report to the official. The two little masters of the Lin family are too small to be masters. "

"If she died in a strange way, she should report to the official in order to give an account to the Lin family and the Qu family. Tell this to the housekeeper of the forest house, and ask him to make up his mind as soon as possible. "

"Little one got it."

Finally, the housekeeper decided to report to the official.

Just because the hostess died so suddenly and unexpectedly. Add the servant girl to say, last night the room seems to be more than one person, see traces of a man entered.

It's a shame.

However, as a servant, if you want to give an account to the master, you can only rely on the court's judicial documents.

When the government received a report, he made a door-to-door investigation.

As an experienced old saying, "your wife should be covered to death."

Get up with a pillow, "the murder weapon is likely to be this pillow."

Ah!

Qi Qi, a member of the Lin family, was shocked.

My wife was covered to death.

"My wife has no enemies. How could she be covered to death?"

"Who can avoid the servants and enter my wife's bedroom? Is it a person with ulterior motives in the mansion? "

"The servant girl didn't mean to say that there was a man in the room besides his wife when he heard the news yesterday."

"With so much food and wine left, it's obvious that the wife didn't eat it alone."

"But the wine and vegetables are all my favorite. The master is at the border. Is there another person who has the same taste as the master? "

The servants were all tongue and tongued.

The government determined that cousin Qu was killed by others, and began to investigate the case.

……

Gu Jiu also heard about it.

She thought a little further. "First, Han Wulang was killed by a cold arrow, and then cousin Qu was covered to death in her own house. The murderer didn't disturb any servants, even the guard dog of the forest house didn't bark. It's like an acquaintance committing a crime. "

"Does your mother know who the murderer is?"Gu jiutiao Mei, "a Han Wulang, a cousin Qu, their most in-depth contact is the affair of cheating. Send someone to ask sister Mei, Han Wulang and his cousin Qu steal someone. Do the Lin family know? Then send someone to the military headquarters to ask if general Lin, cousin Qu's husband, is in the army? Is Han Wulang in the same army? Do you have access to it? "

Servant girl a Qing is shocked, "Niang Niang suspects that general Lin knows that they are cheating, so they kill them respectively?"

"I don't know about Han Wulang's death. The death of cousin Qu is related to the silent watchdog who eats the leftover food and wine at a table. It is obviously committed by an acquaintance. This acquaintance is ready to come out. Xu Yousi, tell the military department that general Lin is wanted if necessary. "

No matter what reason general Lin killed people, he shot cold arrows at his comrades in arms. This is a great taboo and must be severely punished.

As for their personal enmity, Gu Jiu does not interfere.

So she asked the military department to want General Lin, not the criminal department.

Xu Yousi took orders and left.

He went to the military department first, and then to the daihou house.
