Jiang Caiping wanted to say something, but the words got stuck in her throat. She could only raise her hand and said, "You go back first."

Su Jinyue nodded, "Yes, please rest assured about Yuehua's matter, mother."

After all this time, Jiang Caiping also realized that she couldn't control Su Jinyue's thoughts, "You go and rest."

"Yes, mother." Su Jinyue bowed and turned to leave.

On the way back to the courtyard, Xiao Tao followed closely behind, "Miss, in fact, the lady still cares about you very much and thinks about you in everything."

If it had nothing to do with Su Zhiyao and the Marquis' Mansion, speaking from her conscience, she did now feel a little concerned about her daughter who had not returned for many years.

But if the matter involves Su Zhiyao or the Marquis' Mansion, Jiang Caiping will abandon her.

Su Jinyue knew very well that in Jiang Caiping's heart, she was just an insignificant daughter.

"Maybe." Su Jinyue said casually.

Xiao Tao couldn't help but ask, "Miss, are you really going to ignore Yuehua's matter?"

Su Jinyue chuckled, "Some things are not that I don't care, but now is not the right time."

Xiao Tao nodded, not quite understanding, "So what are you going to do next, Miss?"

Su Jinyue narrowed her eyes and thought for a moment, "To find evidence, we must first go and see how Yuehua died."

Xiao Tao hesitated to speak, and said with some fear: "Miss, you don't want to see Yuehua's body, do you? Miss, you'd better not go. Her death is too scary..."

Thinking of what she had just seen, Su Jinyue said, "No, I seemed to see two marks of strangulation on Yuehua's neck. If I'm not mistaken, she didn't commit suicide."

Xiao Tao took a deep breath, quickly covered her mouth, and lowered her voice, "If she didn't commit suicide, then she was killed?"

Su Jinyue shook her head. "It's not clear yet. We should go and take a look while the people are still in the mansion."

"Miss, you'd better be careful. This matter is strange and I'm afraid something might happen to you!" Xiao Tao reminded in a low voice.

"Don't worry, we'll go at night. We shouldn't alert the other people in Fuli." Su Jinyue glanced at Xiaotao and smiled. "If you're afraid, you don't have to follow me tonight."

"No! Xiao Tao is scared, but she still wants to follow the young lady! How can we let the young lady go alone!"

It was midnight again. Hearing no more noise outside, Su Jinyue and Xiaotao left the yard.

There was no one watching the small courtyard where Yuehua's body was placed.

Su Jinyue and Xiaotao walked in so easily.

Xiao Tao was trembling with fear, holding the lantern in her hand and looking around, "Miss, there is no one here, I am really scared!"

Su Jinyue frowned, "Mother said she would send someone to investigate, but there is no one guarding this yard. She really doesn't care at all."

Xiao Tao didn't understand, and asked Su Jinyue in a trembling voice: "Miss, why do you need someone to watch over a yard with a dead body?"

"If it is true as I said today, Yuehua did not commit suicide but was killed by someone, that person must be someone from our Marquis' Mansion."

"If her body is left here for a day, that person will definitely not feel at peace for a day. If no one is guarding this place, wouldn't it be easier for her to come here and destroy the body?"

Xiao Tao finally reacted, "Then let's come over here. If that person comes over here too, wouldn't it be too dangerous!"

Su Jinyue raised her hand to stop Xiaotao from speaking, and she pushed open the door of the cabin in the dark.

The room was dark, with only a few rays of moonlight shining through the window onto the floor. Yuehua's body lay quietly in the middle.

It was so dark and eerie inside that Xiao Tao almost didn't dare to step in.

Su Jinyue went in and said, "Xiao Tao, close the door."

"Yes!" Xiao Tao followed Su Jinyue into the house, closed the door, and hurried to light the ginger candle on the small table next to her.

"Blow out the candle!"

The moment the light in the room came on, Su Jinyue immediately turned to Xiaotao and said.

Xiao Tao was startled, but she quickly blew out the candle and came to Su Jinyue's side, "Miss, what's wrong?"

"The candlelight inside the room can easily let people outside know that there are still people in the room. If someone comes, we will be in trouble!"

Xiao Tao was obedient and followed Su Jinyue, holding a lantern for her in front of Yuehua's body.

"She really didn't hang herself to death. Someone used something to patch up the wound. There were also signs of struggle on her hands, which means she resisted before she died."

Su Jinyue carefully examined the body in the moonlight and the lantern light and said, "That letter was probably forged as well."

"What should we do? Miss, she can kill people in the house, we should tell Madam!" Xiao Tao said.

"No rush." ​​Su Jinyue put on the gloves she made herself and felt Yuehua's body.

Although, the person who killed Yuehua should have searched Yuehua's body before.

But Su Jinyue still looked again for any place on Yuehua's body where he could hide something.

But in the end, everything turned out to be empty-handed. Not even a piece of paper was found on Yuehua's body. Only a sachet with a faint scent of mugwort was found.

After squeezing the sachet, Su Jinyue suddenly felt something was wrong, so she immediately opened the sachet!

The sachet was filled with dried fruits and herbs. In the middle, Su Jinyue found a curled up piece of straw paper. When opened, it was only the size of a palm, and there was a small silver key.

The words "Zhou's Pawn Shop" and "Tianxing Pavilion" were written on the straw paper.

Su Jinyue understood that this was probably where she hid the evidence. "Found it!"

"Should we ask the government to investigate?" Xiao Tao suggested.

"No, this will alert the enemy." Su Jinyue shook her head, "And even if we call the government, my mother will definitely suppress the matter."

"First, find a chance to see if there are any other clues that may lead to the real murderer."

Even at this point, Su Jinyue was still certain that it was Su Zhiyao who did it.

But now, even if she killed a maid, Jiang Caiping would definitely protect her.

She could only give Jiang Caiping the most painful blow to make her make the painful decision.

It's time to reveal the truth about Su Jingnian and Su Zhiyao!

When the two were about to leave, they suddenly heard a slight noise coming from outside.

Xiao Tao stood in front of Su Jinyue, her hands trembling slightly, staring at the door in fear, "Miss! Go quickly."

"Don't be afraid."

Su Jinyue walked forward and suddenly opened the door, "Who's outside?"

The door was opened, and the person outside stumbled in without warning.

"ah!"

Just as the man was about to scream, Xiao Tao pulled out the hairpin on her head, and even though she was scared, she raised her hand in front of the man!

"Look carefully, this is the eldest lady! If you dare to recruit people, you will be in danger of your life!"

"Don't kill me! I...I saw you coming in and thought you were thieves..." she said timidly.

"Who do you belong to?" Xiao Tao asked.

"I...I am the maidservant serving the Madam." She answered stutteringly.

Su Jinyue's heart moved, she lowered her eyes and looked carefully at the face of the maid sitting there, "Are you the maid who went to the woodshed with mother today?"

"Yes! Yes... It's this servant. My name is Cuifang, and I'm the second-class maidservant beside the Madam."

Su Jinyue frowned, "Then why did you follow me so stealthily?"

"I just... want to see Sister Yuehua..." She lowered her head and her voice was weak.

"Sister Yuehua was very kind to me when she was alive. Now that she is dead, I want to come and see her."

Su Jinyue hummed softly, "Get up."

"Yes, Miss, thank you very much!"

After she got up, Su Jinyue asked, "You had a good relationship with Yuehua when she was alive?"

"Yes, I entered the mansion a year later than Sister Yuehua because Sister Hua also took good care of me."

Su Jinyue raised her eyebrows slightly, "So, you know a lot about Yuehua?"

Cuifang was startled and quickly knelt down again, "Miss, please understand! I don't know anything about Sister Yuehua's affairs!"
