Chapter 223 What happened?
"I think it's the second situation." Zhan Beiyuan expressed his opinion. He knew that the female ghost from Jiangzhou was in the Duke of England's mansion, but she didn't seem like a ghost that would cause trouble.
And when she was in Jiangzhou, she never did anything to hurt innocent people.
If she wanted to stand up for Jiang Yunxi, she would not act on her own initiative. Even if she did, she would not scare the three of them to death.
"Prince Han, I also think it is the second one." Qu Xinwen said. Jiang Yunxi did several things after returning to the capital, and he must have offended someone. Perhaps the other party wanted to use this incident to bring criticism to the Duke of Yingguo's Mansion.
"It's difficult to investigate without any clues. Lord Qu, please deal with other things first. I will take care of this case." Jiang Yunxi said, if it was really a ghost that scared the three of them to death.
She really needs to take action.
"Excuse me, Miss Jiang." Qu Xinwen breathed a sigh of relief. If the murderer was really a ghost, he really couldn't find it out.
A moment.
Qu Xinwen left with the officers.
Only Jiang Yunxi, Zhan Beiyuan and Jiang Jingyan were left in the room.
"Sister, do you think it could be Jinxiu? But she is so pretty that she won't scare them to death." Jiang Jingyan touched his chin and said thoughtfully.
She knew that Yun Xi's adoptive parents went to the Duke of Yingguo's mansion; he was the one who told her.
Jiang Yunxi's mouth twitched slightly. "You have a point. She's so pretty. Even if she suddenly appeared, she wouldn't scare the three of them to death. They must have seen something terrifying."
There are no souls of Yang Xiong and Xu Lanhua here.
If it was as she guessed later, the other party killed them to make her suffer criticism, so they would naturally take their souls away. How could they let them wander around and eventually let her find them?
If it was the previous situation, after being so frightened last night, they would not know where to hide.
"Someone must have killed them on purpose so that you and the Duke of Yingzhou would be criticized." Jiang Jingyan said angrily with his fists clenched. At this moment, the people were probably pointing and talking.
"Your Highness, please go and do your thing. I'm going back to the Duke of England's Mansion." Jiang Yunxi looked at her and said.
"Yeah." Zhan Beiyuan was preparing to enter the palace. Someone from the East Palace came to invite him over.
…
British Mansion.
"How could those three people die? Will the rumor spread outside that we, the Duke of Ying, killed them?" Mrs. Mu was not calm at all. She had seen them the day before yesterday and yesterday.
I originally thought that they would leave the capital after taking the money.
As a result, he died in the inn last night.
Even if she didn't go out, she could guess what people outside were talking about the Duke of England's Mansion.
"Mother, no matter what is spread outside, as long as our Duke of Ying's Mansion is upright, there is nothing to worry about." Jiang Jinghuai said calmly. He just felt that the deaths of those three people were strange.
Why did they come to the Duke of Yingguo's mansion these two days? Do they want to make the Jiang family be criticized?
"That's what they say, but the people's saliva can drown us." Mu's heart was burning with anger. Who on earth killed those three poor guys at this time?
"What? Do you have a good way to shut the people up?" The old lady's face was calm and composed. The deaths of Yun Xi's adoptive parents seemed to have a hint of conspiracy.
Originally, after paying the money, the two families had settled the dispute.
As a result, if a murder occurred at this time, even if the murderer was not the Duke of Ying, the Duke of Ying would be pushed to the forefront.
“No, no…” Mu stammered.
"The government will find out the truth. As for the gossip outside, just don't listen to it." The old lady said calmly. She was not in a hurry at all, as being anxious would not solve the problem.
Mu: “…”
Naturally, she couldn't hear it since she didn't go out, but allowing the people to discuss the Duke of Ying's Mansion would damage its reputation, and Chenyu would also be talked about by then.
It was all Jiang Yunxi's fault for handling things improperly.
When she returned to the Duke of Ying's mansion, she should have told her family directly about her adoptive parents. Wouldn't it have been resolved if they had sent some money over? Why did they have to come and ask for it themselves?
This caused trouble for the British Duke's Mansion.
At this time.
Jiang Jingan, Jiang Yunxi, and Jiang Jingyan walked in. They met on the road.
"Master, you're back. You know about the death of Yun Xi's adoptive parents, right?" Mu walked towards him quickly.
"Well, don't worry about what people say. Yunxi and Jingzhao Prefecture will find out who killed them. It wasn't the Duke of Yingguo's Mansion anyway. If anyone dares to be sarcastic, just fight back."
Jiang Jingan said in a deep voice with a dark face.
There is no evidence. If anyone throws dirty water on the Duke of England, he will fight them off.
Mu: “…”
Jiang Yunxi checked?
Can she find out?
"Grandma, I just went to see their bodies. They were scared to death." Jiang Yunxi walked up to the old lady and said.
"Scared, scared to death?" The old lady widened her eyes. How could someone die like this?
Mu: “…”
Jiang Jinghuai: "..."
Others: “…”
This way of dying is quite unique. Although it has happened before, it is still rare.
"It should be a ghost." Jiang Yunxi did not hide it. Although this matter might cause panic if it were to be spread, their deaths did seem to be like that.
Everyone: “…”
Mu couldn't help but say, "Don't talk nonsense here. Why would you scare a good ghost?"
Jiang Yunxi ignored her and looked at the old lady. "Grandma, don't worry about this matter, and don't pay attention to the rumors outside. Just like Daddy said, if you encounter them, just fight back."
Mu: “…”
The old lady nodded, straightened her back and said, "We are upright and have nothing to fear. But I'm afraid the murderer will be difficult to find."
If it really is a ghost, this case will probably be very difficult to solve.
"It's indeed a bit troublesome." Jiang Yunxi said solemnly. She didn't sense any strange aura in the room of the inn, and she didn't know where to start.
Everyone fell silent after hearing this. As long as this case remains unsolved, the Duke of England's mansion will be talked about.
"What should we do?" Mu said worriedly.
"Grandma, I'm going to get busy first. I'll take care of this matter." Jiang Yunxi said and prepared to leave. She came back just to let them stop worrying and thinking about it. After all, she was not sure that she could find the murderer all at once.
"Okay, go and do your thing. Take care of yourself and don't get too tired." The old lady warned earnestly.
…
Yongguo Duke's Mansion.
When Jiang Yunxi arrived, the mansion was already hung with white silk, and the real wife of the Duke of Yong was also dead.
Gu Qian did not take Jiang Yunxi to the mourning hall, but went to the old lady's courtyard, Jingyayuan.
"Miss Jiang, you are finally here." Madam Gu's soul shrank into the corner. The room was dark at this time, and all the windows were temporarily sealed with something to prevent light from coming in.
"What happened?" Jiang Yunxi asked.
"The souls of my mother and sister are gone. We had agreed to meet at the Duke of Yong's mansion today, and then we would go to the underworld together." Old Madam Gu's face was filled with worry and uneasiness.
