Chapter 15 One Inch Gold 15

"Do you know why Madam Yu went to the ancestral hall?"

Zheng Wenrong looked confused, as if she couldn't remember who Yu Mama was for a moment. Huo Weilou said, "Your mother brought her maid from the capital, she is a confidant, but she was punished to stay in the ancestral hall for fifteen years."

Zheng Wenrong's eyes were slightly brighter, "It's her... She is indeed the most trusted person around her mother. In the first few years, she arranged the matter when I returned home, but later she changed to another manager. Although my mother asked me to live back home for a while, she was just to make up for me. She still hid it very much, but I didn't know why the person was replaced."

"However, I have the impression of this nanny. She came from the capital and received the best teachings from the Xinyang Marquis Mansion with her mother. She is familiar with all the etiquette and rules of the Marquis' Sect. She arranges everything around her mother, and she trains the servants around her. She is very careful in her actions and has no mistakes."

"My father was still alive at that time, and my mother was not the only one in the back home. She helped her. My mother was not threatened in the back home. However, she was quite deserted and rigid and strict with her subordinates. At that time, I was still young, and I felt a little scared whenever I saw her."

How do people believe that a person who has received the best teaching like his master, a person who does nothing but misses his work, but his concubine gives birth to a child, causing a corpse and two lives?

Zheng Wenrong said again: "Has she gone to the ancestral hall? I have not been to the ancestral hall for many years. Perhaps... I can only enter the Zheng family's ancestral hall after death..."

His words were three-point desolate. Huo Weilou looked at the night outside, "I'll ask about this tonight, you can get back."

Zheng Wenrong was about to salute, but couldn't help asking: "Marty, is the murderer the mansion?"

Huo Weilou's eyes were slightly condensed, "Not bad."

Zheng Wenrong's eyes looked bitter, she sighed, bowed a long time and turned away from the hall. When he came, he was fairy-like. At this moment, the cold wind raised his sleeves. Although he still had the character, he returned to the world of the world, and his steps were slow and heavy.

He Cheng sighed and said, "The lower official has been an official in Qingzhou for several years, and the Marquis' Mansion has come several times. I really don't know that the third and fourth masters are twin brothers. For many years, I only heard that the Fourth Master was traveling abroad due to illness, but I didn't expect that it was such a reason. Speaking of which, why is this? The Marquis' Mansion was not in the capital, even if there were twins, they were just discussed, so where did the mother and son separate from each other."

Eunuch Fu said justice: "Mr. He doesn't know anything. The more the marquis family is, the more he believes in these words. Although the Anqing Marquis Mansion has lived in Qingzhou for a long time, he still wants to return to the capital. Therefore, no matter whether it is the old Marquis of Anqing or the old lady, he dare not be careless."

He Cheng was born in a slightly cold family, so he naturally did not know the principles of aristocratic families. He could not help but receive humbly after hearing what Master Fu said.

At this time, a wardrobe embroidered in and said, "Mr. Marquis, Master Zheng Wu went to the ancestral hall before a stick of incense, but he has not come out yet."

This was as expected by Huo Weilou, "Maybe he listen to his words?"

The embroidered clothes shook his head, "We have someone approached, but the room is silent."

When Huo Weilou heard this, his brows raised, silently? Two living people were talking in the room. Even if they were unpleasant to ask for words, the embroidered clothes were all practicing family members, so how could they not even hear the sound?

"It seems that the Zheng family's ancestral hall is also quite well-known."

Huo Weilou grinded the black jade ring on his hand and stood up, "Continue to stare at the ancestral hall. After Zheng Wen'an left, he also sent someone to watch." He said that, looking at the embroidered clothing envoy, "Look carefully."

The embroidered clothes responded quickly, and Huo Weilou ordered He Cheng, "I will still guard the important roads in the mansion tonight, and send some yamen to come."

He Cheng responded repeatedly, "Don't worry, Marquis, you have sent more people. The Taoist priest is also calculating that there will be results tomorrow or later."

In the end, it was time to calculate fifteen years. Huo Weilou did not urge him. He was about to leave the hall, but when he glanced at him, he saw Bo Ruoyou frowning and thinking, and didn't know what he was thinking, his eyes slightly condensed, and He Cheng coughed lightly, "Xiao Bo--"

Bo Ruoyou raised his eyes and saw Huo Weilou looking at her, so he had to say, "The young woman is wondering if it was the young woman who made a mistake. She has checked everyone in the mansion tonight, but none of them are similar to the murderer."

Seeing this, He Cheng said arduously: "This... except for the eldest lady and the Yu Ma Ma's mansion, they are indeed here, it is impossible for her to be both of them. The murderer must be a little crawling."

The murderer was able to fall from the attic of Yaoyue with a rope, and cross the wall and cross the courtyard. It was impossible for him to be an old man over fifty years old and a woman who was hard to tell the road of madness. Although He Cheng did not blame Bo Ruoyou, he was also puzzled. Perhaps Bo Ruoyou had really calculated the wrong calculation? The murderer's body size and other characteristics were her autopsy. Once there were any mistakes, the investigation direction would be wrong at the beginning.

"No doubt about hiring people."

Huo Weilou didn't say much, and said this and left the hall.

Eunuch Fu smiled and said, "Miss Bo, don't be afraid. The Marquis never doubted you. You don't have to doubt yourself. Since the murderer dared to commit a crime and never stopped under the Marquis' situation, he naturally has some skills."

Bo Ruoyou looked at Huo Weilou's back. He walked out of the hall and said something to the embroidered clothes in the courtyard. Looking from her direction, he felt that his back was straight and hard like iron cast, and it was as heavy as a thousand pounds, and it did not change its majesticity.

No doubt about hiring people.

These four characters are as powerful as a thousand pounds, making them as thin as a little as a little shaking.

Bo Ruoyou's hand was gently clenched in his sleeve, but only a gentle smile appeared on his face.

Eunuch Fu said, "It's getting late. Miss Bo goes back and rest first. I will discuss it tomorrow. If you can't come, the more anxious you are, the more mess you will be..."

Bo Ruoyou was hesitating, and Huo Weilou seemed to hear what was inside the house, and pointed to an embroidered clothing envoy, "Send her back." He paused and said, "Be guarding outside her yard tonight."

Bo Ruoyou was just about to say no, but Huo Weilou had already looked at it, "The whereabouts of the murderer are difficult to determine. He is very good at hiding skills. Those who do this will not be injured by the murderer, especially you."

Especially you.

Bo Ruoyou felt a heat in his heart, and he narrowed his eyes and said, "Yes, that girl has surrendered."

Huo Weilou nodded, turned around and talked to the embroidered robes before. While talking, Bo Ruoyou seemed to hear the word "Luozhou". Luozhou is in the northwest of Qingzhou. Is it the tolerance that Eunuch Fu said?

The murderer died seven days later, and another six days may cause another murder case. Bo Ruoyou knew that the case must be investigated within six days, not to mention... Huo Weilou must be very anxious.

He was sent back to the guest yard all the way, and there was an embroidered garment envoy. Even if he walked on the dim path with lights, Bo Ruoyou felt very at ease. The night was already deep. Although there were guards on the main road of the Hou Mansion, the courtyards were continuous and wide, and the murderer might be hiding in any darkness.

After returning to the living yard, Chuntao, who was dozing off, immediately came out. After washing and having dinner, Chuntao couldn't help but say, "Girl, today I saw the girl in the front yard. The girl stood beside Wu Zhaohou, so angry. I heard that the girl was helping the yamen to handle the job? The girl is so awesome!"

Bo Ruoyou looked at Chuntao's childish face and couldn't bear to say that she was a corpse, but said, "Then you must have seen Master Zheng Si."

Chuntao suddenly changed his face, "Yes, I was scared to death. I thought it was the third master who was cheated. I didn't expect that the fourth master had not returned home for many years, because he and the third master were twins. Do you know that twins are extremely unknown."

"I know." Bo Ruoyou didn't continue and said, "I saw the eldest lady tonight."

Chun Tao glared in her eyes and whispered, "Isn't it scary? The eldest lady has been crazy for many years. She has been taking medicine for many years, but she has not recovered. The strangest thing is... the eldest lady is not crazy when she sees the stupid girl in the mansion."

Before Bo Ruoyou could ask, Chuntao said first, and Bo Ruoyou said casually: "Silly Gu?"

Chuntao's emotions were exposed on her face, and a hint of fear and disgust flashed in her eyes, "Have you ever seen her before? Today, when everyone was in the front yard, she was there too. She had a big scar on her face, saying that it was when the eldest lady picked her up."

"When did the eldest lady pick her up?"

Chuntao recalled for a moment, "I don't know when it was late for me to enter the mansion. It was about six or seven years ago? With the appearance of Sha Gu, it was impossible to be left in the Marquis' Mansion. I heard that the old lady took the eldest lady to meet a monk and wanted the monk to treat the eldest lady. However, on the way back, he picked up the Sha Gu who was fainting from hunger on the side of the road. The eldest lady went crazy and couldn't stop anyone, and the eldest lady couldn't stop him. She insisted on bringing Sha Gu back. The old lady had no choice but to bring the person back."

"Later, the eldest lady was very nervous, as if she was facing her daughter. The eldest lady was there. The eldest lady seemed to be cured by madness. In addition to not remembering things, she could speak and drink medicine. The old lady took the initiative to keep the silly girl. The eldest lady didn't need the silly girl anymore. The silly girl did some work as a servant. If she got sick, she would let the silly girl follow the silly girl for a few days. Look, this is a blessing for people. I don't know how many people in the mansion envy her..."

Chuntao kept talking and sighed at this point, "But she was pitiful, her face was ruined, and she was so stupid that she could not speak, and even her legs were broken. If the old lady hadn't been kind to her, she might have died."

Bo Ruoyou raised her eyebrows, "Did her leg break after entering the mansion?"

Chuntao nodded, "Yes, it seems to be two or three years ago. It fell into a dry well east of the Hou Mansion. Almost disappeared. It was under the well for several days. Everyone thought she had run away, but later a servant passed by and rescued her. Her leg broke, and the old lady asked for medicine to cure her."

Bo Ruoyou sighed a little. Thinking of the scars on the back of Zheng Yunni's hand, and then thinking that the eldest lady loved a fool, she felt something strange. However, if she wanted to ask a longer time, Chuntao didn't know, and even the person Yu Ma Ma had never heard of it. Bo Ruoyou knew that he couldn't ask anything anymore, so he took a break.

Just as she was about to fall into her dream, Bo Ruoyou heard a few sounds of firecrackers coming from afar, and a vague thought slipped through her mind. The 15th day of the first lunar month has arrived.

That night, Bo Ruoyou slept very uneasy and woke up before dawn. He was having a headache, but suddenly he heard a voice outside the yard. She felt a move in her heart and quickly got up, changed clothes and went out of the yard to check.

As soon as the courtyard door opened, Bo Ruoyou was shocked.
