Chapter 198 Aunt Pan is dead
Aunt Pan didn't understand what was going on.
Why did Lu Bai look at her with such resentment?
By the way, why is Lu Bai standing next to her?
Inadvertently, she saw Yuan Wanru's regretful eyes and was horrified.
She remembered that she had just mentioned Deng Yeyong to Yuan Wanru.
What did they talk about afterwards and why does she have no recollection of it?
what is going on?
Does Yuan Wanru have any magic?
When Pan was in doubt, Zhou Fang came over and said, "You are pregnant with a wild man's child. You are really vicious and want to confuse the bloodline of the Lu family."
"Come here, take her to the woodshed and lock her up."
What!
Did they know that the child she was pregnant with was Brother Yong’s?
What did she say?
Mrs. Pan was extremely frightened. This unknown fear controlled her and she couldn't speak.
Yuan Wanru frowned, feeling helpless towards Lu Bai and Zhou Fang. She raised her voice and said, "Wait, I haven't finished asking my question yet."
"Auntie Pan, who ordered you to do all this? Tell us the truth, and maybe you can save your life."
Her voice made Pan's fear reach its peak.
Aunt Pan kept her mouth tightly shut and shook her head, not uttering a single word.
She wanted to recall carefully what had just happened.
Seeing her being so stubborn, Lu Bai was so angry that he almost couldn't breathe.
Old Madam Lu was so angry that her heart ached. She remembered that she had sent a lot of supplements to Mrs. Pan recently, but it turned out that the one she gave was a bastard!
"Take him away, don't embarrass yourself here."
After Mrs. Pan was taken away, the room fell into deathly silence.
Lu Bai sat in the chair with his head hung, without any reaction.
Zhou Fang could not hide her interest in her eyes. She had never expected that Pan would be so bold as to do such an immoral thing. She said that these concubines had bad conduct and should be properly disciplined.
Humph, from now on, the second master can't stop her from disciplining the concubine.
Lu Song was secretly looking at Yuan Wanru.
The subsequent conversation between Aunt Pan and Wanru didn't sound wrong, but given Aunt Pan's previous character of refusing to admit anything, how could she obediently admit that the fetus in her belly was not Lu Bai's?
I always feel that Wanru used some tricks.
But in public, she seemed to do nothing.
In short, it's very strange.
Wang Min breathed a sigh of relief. No wonder Wanru didn't let her call Jiang Nian back. It turned out that everything was under her control.
This child is growing up so fast. She will have to worry less in the future.
Lu Wei didn't expect that Yuan Wanru could get away with it so easily, and she felt a little unhappy.
However, what Pan did was ultimately disgraceful, so she tactfully kept her mouth shut.
Madam Lu waved her hand tiredly: "No one is allowed to spread this matter except those present."
"If I hear any rumors in the future, I will punish you severely."
Just as he was about to say something, he heard hurried footsteps: "Oh no! Aunt Pan has committed suicide by jumping into the lake. She is gone."
Yuan Wanru was stunned.
How could that be?
According to her understanding, Pan shouldn't be like this. Could it be that the lie she just made up had stimulated her to the point that she lost the will to live?
Yes, the whole story about Deng Yeyong getting married was made up by Yuan Wanru.
Pan loved Deng Yeyong deeply, but the two of them could not be together day and night, so there were too many loopholes for her to exploit.
Nothing is more heartbreaking than when you truly love him but he uses your love to protect others.
So, she had already decided to tell this lie to Mrs. Pan.
The purpose is to break down her psychological defenses.
As for the jade pendant, Deng Yeyong had actually redeemed it and gave it to Lihua, asking her to bring it back to Aunt Pan.
Yuan Wanru learned from Lihua's confession that the jade pendant was an heirloom from Deng Yeyong's ancestors and that he wanted to give it to his wife.
All's fair in war, she has never been an upright person.
But unexpectedly, Mrs. Pan died just like that.
Who is controlling all this behind the scenes?
Yuan Wanru glanced at the distraught Lu Bai and sighed secretly. If he hadn't lost his patience, she would have been able to find the truth.
Now, the clue is broken.
-
Back at Lingshuiju, Yuan Wanru called Shiying: "Can you contact the prince? He told me that he sent people to keep an eye on Pan. I want to know who has visited Pan in the past two days."
Yuan Wanru made a guess.
The person who threatened Pan and framed her must be the one behind the scenes.
Someone must have discovered the affair between Pan and Deng Yeyong, and that person had something on Pan and forced her to help him do evil.
There must be something wrong among the people who have come into contact with Pan in the past few days.
Shi Ying said, "I know who is watching Pan, I will call him over right away."
Yuan Wanru smiled and said, "Okay."
The visitor's name is Xuanmu. "In the past two days, the old lady sent Madam Cao and others to deliver supplements. The second lady went to ask Aunt Pan about the disappearance of Zaohua and Lihua many times. The second master came several times, and the other four concubines of the second house all went to visit Pan."
So many people?
Yuan Wanru thought for a moment: "Did the four concubines go together?"
"No, Aunt Luo and Aunt Shen went together, while Aunt Liu and Aunt Qu went alone."
Xuan Mu added: "They didn't visit for long, and I didn't notice anything unusual."
It seems that it is a little difficult to distinguish.
"Why did Aunt Pan commit suicide by jumping into the lake today?"
Xuan Mu was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and said with some guilt: "There were people arranged by the Marquis in Wangchun Hall, so I didn't dare to get too close. When Aunt Pan was escorted out, I stood quite far away. When they passed by the path beside the waterside pavilion, she fell headfirst into the lake."
After Xuanmu left, Yuan Wanru told Shiying: "Let's go and see Aunt Pan's body at night."
Quartz really couldn't react. Isn't Madam afraid?
“It might be a little scary.”
Yuan Wanru winked at her mischievously: "Oh, I've dissected corpses before, I won't be afraid."
quartz:……
The lady is completely different from what I thought.
However, she felt that she liked the lady very much.
-
In the evening, Lu Jiangnian received the news.
In the forest near the palace, he stopped his horse, looked at the layers of trees with a sarcastic look in his eyes.
No wonder there was such a riot. It turned out they wanted to set a trap for his wife while he was not in the capital.
Although this move is risky, it has a high chance of success.
No matter what Pan had done before, as long as the charge of murdering my second uncle's offspring is proven, my grandmother will definitely not tolerate her.
Even the truth they had found out before would become evidence that the lady hated Pan and wanted to kill her.
Depending on how biased my grandmother is, she might even threaten me with death.
By then, he will be the one in trouble.
To disobey one's elders and protect a guilty wife is tantamount to digging one's own grave. The censor will definitely impeach him to the death.
He will have to choose between his career and his wife.
Fortunately, my wife was capable and resolved the crisis.
Her brain worked very quickly, and she could come up with lies that sounded like the truth. I'm afraid Pan believed them.
Miss her.
