Chapter 394: Don't be a love-brained person
Xu Muhua didn't know that Pei Zhen's maid had seen her meeting the prince.
Of course, she wouldn't care even if she knew.
She could imagine what Pei Zhen would do after knowing this. A Rong would not believe her.
She had just returned to the manor, and the maid who had been guarding the door immediately trotted over, "Miss, you are finally back! Second uncle has been waiting for you to come back!"
Xu Muhua said calmly, "I'll go over now."
She was not in a hurry, but the second aunt was fidgeting.
The second uncle and Xuan Lingzi were also sitting in the room. In comparison, Xuan Lingzi was much calmer and more natural, holding a cup of tea, sipping it with relish, and eating a snack from time to time.
Xu Muhua even suspected that the two masters and apprentices were hungry every other day in Xuanqing Temple.
Hearing the footsteps, the second aunt turned around and saw her coming back. She was delighted and took a big step forward. She couldn't help but hold Xu Muhua's hand. There was excitement on her face, as well as a hint of suppressed anger and hatred.
"Muhua, you are finally back! Yunniang..."
Xu Muhua shook the second aunt's hand with his backhand and comforted her: "Second aunt, don't worry, let's talk slowly, this matter can't be rushed."
The second uncle also stood up, helped his wife to the chair and sat down, then looked at his niece and said: "Just now, Taoist Xuan Lingzi has performed a ritual to make Yunniang remember the things in her life." The second uncle was also in
a very complicated mood at this moment.
I didn't expect that what happened more than ten years ago still hid such a dirty and cruel truth.
His sister-in-law was actually murdered! And in such a cruel way!
Xu Muhua sat down and drank a sip of water before asking: "Did Yunniang say who killed her?"
Second aunt said: "Yunniang remembered, but we don't know the person she said at all!"
It turned out that Yunniang did remember the things before her death, and also remembered how she was murdered. Of course, she also remembered the man she was in love with, but the name she said was very strange to both the second aunt and the second uncle. Not to mention knowing him, they had no impression at all!
After listening, Xu Muhua thought about it and guessed: "Either that man used a fake identity when he interacted with Yunniang, or he changed his name after killing Yunniang. That's why you feel strange."
The lack of impression is easier to explain. Half of the story told by the second aunt that day should be true. That is, the man's origin is indeed very humble.
It is normal for them to have no impression of a person of low status unless they have frequent contact with him.
Xu Muhua is more inclined to the last possibility.
"How was Yunniang murdered back then?"
she asked.
As soon as she asked, the second aunt's eyes turned blood red with extreme hatred. She gritted her teeth and said, "Yunniang said that the man went to Beijing to take the imperial examination that year, and there was no news for a long time. Yunniang waited and waited, and just when she was about to secretly leave home to find him, she received a letter from him."
"The letter said that he had passed the imperial examination, but he was delayed on the road for some time, so there was no news for a long time. He also prepared a surprise for Yunniang and asked Yunniang to secretly meet him at the agreed place."
"He also lied to Yunniang, saying that he wanted to propose marriage in a dignified manner, so he asked Yunniang to burn all the letters they wrote during their correspondence to prevent her parents from finding out and misunderstanding him. Yunniang foolishly believed it!"
“Who knew that when she arrived at the agreed place, Yunniang didn’t see the other party, but was killed! The person who killed her told her the truth before he died! That person did graduate from high school, but he climbed up the social ladder in the capital!”
That’s why he wanted to get rid of Yunniang, because he was afraid that Yunniang would pester him after she knew he graduated from high school. He was also worried that the news about him and Yunniang would ruin his reputation and affect his career!
Poor Yunniang was thinking about him and believing in him, and had no idea that she was embarking on the road to hell when she went there.
Those people destroyed her face before pushing her off the cliff! They just didn’t want people to discover her identity!
Afterwards, they forged a suicide note, creating the illusion that Yunniang committed suicide for love!
In the end, they found the suicide note and Yunniang’s body under the cliff! If it weren't for the pearl flower on Yunniang's head, if they weren't twin sisters, they wouldn't have recognized Yunniang at all!
Her poor sister!
Second aunt burst into tears again.
Second uncle was also very upset. He had never thought that his wife's sister was killed by someone, and died so tragically.
Xu Muhua had a feeling that it was as expected.
So, love-brained is really bad!
Matching people of equal status may never be discrimination, but a cautious and appropriate approach based on reality and after many considerations.
"Does Yunniang know who that person climbed up to?"
Second Aunt shook her head, "Yunniang said that the person who wanted to kill her at that time just said that she blocked someone else's path to success, so he wanted to get rid of her. He didn't say anything else in detail." "
Let me ask someone to help check and see who passed the exam that year. I think it won't be difficult to find suspicious people." There
are only a limited number of people who pass the exam each time, and there are also limited places in each place. As long as you eliminate them one by one, it will not be difficult to find suspicious people in the final scope.
Second Uncle felt ashamed when he heard this, "I'm sorry to trouble you with this matter. I have limited connections in the capital, and it would be bad if I make a fuss."
If he asked someone to check, it would easily attract other people's attention and suspicion. If the person who killed Yunniang also knew about this, he would definitely be alert at the first time.
"Why are you saying these things, uncle? We are all family. If I have any troubles when I go to Qingshui Town in the future, I will naturally have to trouble my uncles for help. It's just that it's more convenient for me to be in the capital now. Second aunt, just rest assured and leave things to me."
Second aunt hurriedly said, "Of course I'm relieved!"
Having said that, Xu Muhua asked about Yunniang, "Is Yunniang seriously ill?"
Xuan Lingzi, who was immersed in eating and drinking, hurriedly swallowed the snacks in his mouth and said, "Yunniang is not seriously ill, but she is injured after all. So I let her return to the magic weapon to recuperate. Don't let her out these days if there is nothing to do."
Xu Muhua nodded, "Okay."
Xu Muhua said that he would find someone to help investigate. After thinking about it, he felt that Feng Shaoqing was the best candidate!
His father is the Prime Minister. Coming from such a family, he must be very clear about this kind of thing. And he is also a trustworthy person.
In addition to him, she can also ask Arong to find the prince. But unless it is absolutely necessary, she doesn't want to have too much to do with the male protagonist.
So she still picked up a pen and wrote a letter to Feng Shaoqing, asking Liang Ming to deliver it when he returned to the city.
