Chapter 74: The Man is Arrested
When the old lady asked the question, even Marquis Huo felt something was wrong.
It's a good thing that Jin Jian woke up, but why did the daughter-in-law look like she had seen a ghost? "Are you tired from taking care of Si Yuan? You are pregnant, if you feel unwell, go back to your room first."
Liang Shanyu's knees went weak and she almost fell to the ground.
Yu hurriedly supported her, her face pale as she forced a smile, "Yes, Shanyu is a twin after all. Seeing all these bloody scenes today, she must have been a little emotional. Just go back and rest."
"Hmph." The old lady's voice was like ice, and her eyes coldly examined the two people's stiff faces. "It's better this way. After all, the rules of the Marquis' Mansion don't tolerate any dirty things!"
The last part of his voice contained a sharp and powerful pressure from someone who had experienced a lot.
The old lady was frightened by the accident that Huo Jin had seen, and she had no intention of taking care of the two of them.
Now, just a glance and you can see that the two of them are in a panic, and something is wrong everywhere.
The old lady held Huo Jinjian's hand tightly, and a suspicion and anger rose in her heart, but she suppressed it in an instant.
There is no evidence, so it is futile to alert the enemy. For now, we can only put pressure on them.
Yu and Liang Shanyu were indeed frightened when they met the old lady's majestic gaze, and they made excuses to go back to the yard.
Huo Jin saw his Adam's apple rolling and made a weak sound, as if to comfort the old lady.
Looking at the deep wrinkles at the corners of the old woman's eyes and the hair at her temples that was grayer than he remembered, he raised his right fingertips slightly and drew an arc in the air: "Grandma, I'm fine."
Seeing his deep and bright eyes, the old lady's eyebrows twitched with a smile, "My grandson is blessed with a long life, and nothing can go wrong."
He looked at Liang Weiyuan again, his eyes completely transformed into gentle gratitude, "Weiyuan, thanks to you...!"
When Liang Weiyuan bowed, she caught a glimpse of Huo Jinjian's eyes following her.
There was a gentleness in his dark eyes that he had never seen in his previous life. His pupils reflected her figure deeply, and the fingertips of his right hand slowly drew the word "thank you" on the quilt.
"Yes, Wei Yuan, even the imperial physician said that there was no hope for an audience, but I didn't expect you to..."
Marquis Huo was both embarrassed and delighted, but just as he opened his mouth to speak, the old lady sternly shouted, "Alright, stop hanging around here. The mansion is in chaos. Go clean up the mess and don't cause any more trouble."
Marquis Huo knew that the old lady's tone was to vent Liang Weiyuan's anger.
Knowing that he had done something wrong, he felt ashamed. He gave Huo Jinjian a few words of advice and then hurried out.
"Grandma, I'm not worried. As long as my husband is well, that's enough." Liang Weiyuan smiled softly, her slightly drooping eyelashes like the shadow of frost, graceful and extraordinary.
As the old lady watched, she realized that her grandson's eyes were mostly on Liang Weiyuan, and she laughed helplessly.
After all, they are a young couple and it is time for them to be alone. It is not appropriate for an old woman like her to get involved.
"Good boy, I am tired too. I'll trouble you to see me."
The old lady looked at her grandson a few times, didn't stay long, and smiled as she let Ah Fu help her leave.
The door of Qingzhu Courtyard slowly closed, blocking out the noisy footsteps outside the courtyard.
Huo Jinjian leaned on the cushion, his pale handsome face flushed abnormally due to the exertion, which made him look much more heroic.
"How are you feeling, my husband? Are you tired?"
Liang Weiyuan took half a step forward, squatted down, and looked him in the eye.
The bright red cinnabar mole at the end of the woman's eyebrow adds a touch of elegance.
Huo Jin had imagined her appearance in every way before, but nothing could compare to seeing her with his own eyes.
He clenched his cold palms, and vague syllables rolled out of his throat, and he gestured with his fingertips: "It's okay, let's get down to business."
"Mr. Ye has checked it out. My husband was infected with the Soul Devouring Grass."
Liang Weiyuan recalled the strange purple-black color in the pool, and a frosty coldness appeared in her eyes. "It's a strange poison in Southern Xinjiang. There is no antidote, and it's difficult for ordinary people to obtain it."
Even Ye Zhonglin's method was to fight poison with poison.
Huo Jin saw his fingertips move again, this time slowly and firmly pointing in the direction of the west wing, the residence of the second wife and Yu.
"I know." Liang Weiyuan paused slightly, understanding what he wanted to say.
The bricks under the wheelchair had been tampered with before it fell into the water, and Yu and Liang Shanyu had instigated it intentionally or unintentionally.
The most likely person is the mastermind behind this.
"There's no evidence." Liang Weiyuan said slowly, pulling out her hand from his grasp and placing her palm on the back of his cold hand. "But I will find it."
Her voice was light, but it was filled with the murderous aura that was unique to the daughter of a general, and a cold and sharp light flashed across her eyes.
When Huo Jin saw him raise his sword-like eyebrows, his heart began to beat uncontrollably.
Thinking of the stone-blue figure when she fell into the water, and the woman's determination to jump into the cold pond regardless of everything, he stared at Liang Weiyuan's eyes closely, and a deep smile appeared on his face.
Just at this moment, Zhu Shu brought in a trembling maid.
"Girl, we've caught him!"
