Chapter 397 Did they act in advance?
When Pei Shaorong packed herself up, Xu Muhua had already prepared the carriage.
Pei Shaorong changed her clothes and came out. She was no longer panicked, but her face was still tense.
"Arong, I'll let a few guards from the Chengguo Mansion go with you. They will come back after sending you back to Pei Mansion safely. Otherwise, I'm worried about you being alone."
She is now the future crown princess. Maybe someone has set their sights on this position and is desperate to take risks. It's always better to be cautious.
Pei Shaorong knew that she meant well, so she did not refuse, "Thank you, Muhua."
"Let's not say these polite words. The matter is urgent, you should go back quickly!"
Xu Muhua held her hand and let her get on the carriage. He also gave a few instructions to the guards before watching the carriage leave.
When she returned to the house, Xu's mother also received the news and got up from the hot spring.
After listening to her, she frowned for a moment, "How could such a thing suddenly happen?"
Now it was only a few days before the prince's wedding. If the injury is not serious, it's okay, but if it is really serious, this...
Xu Muhua didn't understand this matter, and couldn't draw any conclusions for the time being. She could only say: "Maybe it was carelessness. Accidents always happen in life."
Xu's mother sighed, "If it was really just an accident, it would be a small matter, but I'm afraid..."
Xu Muhua frowned and couldn't help but doubt.
In the book, Arong is the heroine. Mrs. Pei is not favored, and her family can't support her. She herself is also a bad attitude. Arong's situation is naturally not much better.
When she was a child, she was often bullied by Pei Zhen, and it was also common for Aunt Zhao to find opportunities to torture her secretly. Only Pei Taifu protected her, otherwise she would have died long ago.
But Pei Taifu is a man after all, and he has limited care for the things in the backyard. Not to mention that Madam Pei was still that kind of grandmother.
As she grew up, she learned to protect herself, and her life became a little better.
In the book, Pei Huaiyuan, the legitimate son, certainly could not escape the harm of Aunt Zhao. But Pei Huaiyuan was raised by Master Pei, so Aunt Zhao had few opportunities to do it. It was
not until Arong entered the East Palace that Aunt Zhao found the opportunity to do it. Pei Huaiyuan almost died
that time. But afterwards, her scumbag father was still reluctant to deal with Aunt Zhao, and Master Pei wanted to cruelly send Aunt Zhao to the manor to be imprisoned. But at this time, Aunt Zhao, who had not given birth for many years, was pregnant!
Now, let alone the scumbag father, even Old Madam Pei is throwing herself at the door and threatening Master Pei. She said that if he dared to send Aunt Zhao away, she would kill herself in front of the Prince's Mansion.
Master Pei was so angry that he almost had a stroke.
In the end, Pei Shaorong stood up and said that Aunt Zhao would be given a way out, and the matter was over.
In fact, how could she let Aunt Zhao go so easily? This is also one of the reasons why she gradually neglected the Pei family after she became the queen and took away all the glory that belonged to the Pei family.
She would not let Aunt Zhao get involved in anything that belonged to her siblings!
Could it be that Aunt Zhao acted in advance and this incident was caused by Aunt Zhao?
Did something happen in the Pei Mansion recently that irritated Aunt Zhao? Otherwise, why would she attack Pei Huaiyuan at this time?
Xu's mother certainly would not dwell on other people's affairs. She just sighed and changed the subject, asking about Yunniang.
Xu Muhua gathered her thoughts and replied, "We'll talk about the next thing after we find out the identity of the man who was in love with Yunniang."
"But this happened so many years ago. Even if there was any evidence left at that time, I'm afraid it can't be found now. Without evidence, what can we do to the murderer?"
Xu's mother asked the key point at once.
It's true.
It happened so many years ago. There is no evidence. Even if it is found out, there is nothing we can do to the other party.
But she smiled soon. Xu's mother felt that her daughter's smile was a little difficult to describe. But in the blink of an eye, she felt that she was smiling bitterly.
"There must be a way. We can't just let her go just because time has passed and we can't do anything to him."
She said with a wry smile.
Haha, of course there is a way.
If the open way doesn't work, then do it secretly!
Forget about rules and laws. If people can't take him away, then let God take him away!
He killed Yunniang many years ago, so he should pay the price!
Oh, maybe besides him, there are others involved!
It is hard to say that the so-called Gaozhi who fell in love with this man really didn't know about him and Yunniang.
She didn't believe that the family who caught the son-in-law would drag him back to marry his daughter without checking the situation of this person.
Knowing that he and Yunniang had such a past, they still got married in the end. What does it mean? It means that the other party is very likely to be involved in this matter, and it is even very likely that this family is the mastermind of Yunniang's tragic death.
If this is the case, then no one can be let go!
Xu Muhua looked at Xu's mother who looked a little worried, her eyes rolled, and she looked like she suddenly remembered something, and slapped her forehead, "Oh, mother, I remembered something!"
Xu's mother was startled by her sudden voice, "What did you remember, you made such a fuss, you scared me!"
She was just thinking about Yunniang!
This Yunniang has turned into a ghost, and the second sister-in-law said that she saw her, isn't that seeing a ghost?
Xu Muhua got up and walked to Xu's mother and sat down. Xu's mother looked at her inexplicably, not understanding what she was doing.
"Mom, you should have heard of a rumor in the capital, right?"
Xu's mother was stunned, "What rumor?"
There are so many rumors in the capital! Which one is she talking about?
"That's it. It's said that there's a store in the capital. It's very powerful. As long as you pay money, no matter what you want to know, they can help you find out."
Xu's mother suddenly realized, "Oh, so this is what you're talking about! I've heard of it, but..."
Xu Muhua looked mysterious, "Mom, you don't know that my adoptive father's case was investigated by this family!"
"Is it true?"
Xu's mother looked suspicious.
She didn't know the details of the incident between the princess and her husband, but she had heard about it vaguely. But because it involved the princess and her husband's private affairs, she didn't ask too much, but knew the general idea. She
heard part of it from Mu Hua!
"Of course it's true! So mother, why don't we ask them to help investigate Yunniang's matter? After all, they said it themselves, and there is nothing they can't find out unless they don't want to!"
Xu's mother thought this method was unreliable, but after being persuaded by Xu Muhua, she finally gave in.
"You still have to talk to your second aunt about this matter. After all, Yunniang is her biological sister. Now there is no one else in the capital, and your second aunt has the final say on how to solve Yunniang's matter."
As a sister-in-law who has been married for many years, she can't interfere
