Feicui understood what the lady meant. She knew what she meant, that if she refused to leave, she would use force.
Without saying anything, she and Jiang Qi took the guards to the Su family's garden.
When they arrived at the garden, the housekeeper was standing there, watching Taoist Master Yuan perform the ritual.
In addition to the housekeeper, there was also a servant from the second house, waiting to take the person to Su Chengyan.
When the housekeeper heard that the eldest lady wanted to invite Taoist Yuan away, he didn't dare to say a word of opposition. Especially when he saw Jiang Qi leading a team of Shen family guards, the servants of the second house didn't dare to say a word.
In this way, Taoist Yuan was brought directly to Su Qingyu.
Su Qingyu took a look and thought to herself that it was no wonder that Aunt Zeng would have an affair with him.
The man was young, looking no more than thirty, with fair skin. If he were to wear a long gown instead of his Taoist robe, he would be a refined scholar. He had a pair of peach blossom eyes, and when he smiled at people, he looked at them with affection.
Su Qingyu didn't rush to interrogate him, but asked Jiang Qixian to verify whether this person was the one who had spoken to Su Chengyan at the city gate. As for the person, he was first imprisoned in the Shen family dungeon.
She took a carriage back to the Shen family.
Not long after Su Qingyu and her men left, Su Chengyan hurried to the small garden.
"Where are the people? Where is Taoist Yuan?"
At this moment, the housekeeper was still leading people to pack up the things for the ritual. When Su Chengyan asked, he replied, "Master Yuan was taken away by the eldest lady."
Su Chengyan was shocked. "What? Why was he taken away? Didn't I tell you to bring him to me?"
Butler Su Zhong smiled bitterly, "Second Master, how can I stop the man the eldest lady wants?"
Not to mention him, even if the second master himself was here, he probably wouldn't be able to stop the eldest lady.
Su Chengyan walked back, wondering why Su Qingyu took Taoist Yuan away. Was she really looking for him to perform a ritual, or had she discovered something?
After much thought, he felt that it was necessary to tell his daughter about this matter.
So when he returned to Yixiayuan, he picked up his pen and wrote a simple letter. If this letter fell into the hands of others, they would definitely not be able to understand it, but Su Xiangling should be able to understand what he meant.
After the messenger delivered the letter to the palace, Su Chengyan stood silently by the window. He hoped that Su Qingyu was only looking for Taoist Yuan to perform a ritual.
At this moment, Su Qingyu had no time to care about Taoist Yuan. She was sitting in the small study, and on the desk was the news from Qianzhou.
At this moment, besides Su Qingyu, there were only Zhenzhu and Feicui in the study.
Chuntao and Qiuyue stood guard at the door and did not allow anyone to approach.
Su Qingyu picked up the stack of papers covered with words and began to read. Inside was Mr. Zhou's life from childhood to adulthood, very detailed.
From his childhood study of medicine to his engagement with his junior sister and the birth of their daughter, it described in extraordinary detail where he had been, who he had met, and what medicines he had developed. Su Qingyu was almost asleep after reading the last part.
She had the illusion that she was reading a very boring biography. Her mind was wandering and she just wanted to sleep.
None of this had anything to do with her. She even wondered if she was wrong, and that in her previous life, it was probably because Shen Zhao paid a high price that Mr. Zhou gave her that knife.
At first, she read it page by page, but later, she simply took the whole stack of unread papers in her hands.
When there is too much paper, some of it will inevitably fall to the ground.
Jade picked up the one that fell to the ground and suddenly her eyes widened.
"Little Miracle Doctor? Why is it her?"
Su Qingyu was startled, and when she got closer she realized Feicui was holding a portrait in her hand. It was of a young girl, about fourteen or fifteen years old.
She was wearing silver jewelry on her head and she looked like a girl from Miao.
"Do you know her?" Su Qingyu asked while looking at the signature on the lower right corner of the portrait.
It says: Mr. Zhou’s daughter, Zhou Tong.
Feicui nodded and said, "This is the little miracle doctor I mentioned last time, the one I met in Qianzhou."
"That time, Madam caught a cold, and the Second Miss took me to get medicine."
At this moment, Feicui also saw the signature in the lower right corner. "She is actually Mr. Zhou's daughter?"
Su Qingyu picked up the paper on the table and continued reading. She happened to see the cause of death of Mr. Zhou's daughter, and her intuition told her that she might be getting closer to the truth.
It's mentioned above that in the summer of the fourteenth year of the Xuande reign, Zhou Tong was training alone in Liping Prefecture, Qianzhou. The little girl had been collecting herbs at the age of eight, and by ten she was traveling around Qianzhou treating patients. Mr. Zhou wasn't worried about this. The young men in his clan had all come this way.
But that summer, Zhou Tong suddenly fell off a cliff. Fortunately, she was carrying the clan's signal arrow, and was rescued by several brothers.
When Mr. Zhou arrived, Zhou Tong was already unconscious. Mr. Zhou used all his life's knowledge, but he could only keep Zhou Tong alive for two years.
Before she died, Zhou Tong woke up, perhaps from a moment of last breath. She said she was pushed down by a young lady from the capital, and that the young lady's maid had a red mole on her wrist.
Having said this, Su Qingyu froze there.
In the fourteenth year of Xuande, a young lady from the capital had a mole on the wrist of her maid.
She grabbed Feicui's wrist, rolled up her sleeves and took a look at her wrist. The red mole was still there.
Seeing that Feicui didn't understand, Su Qingyu handed Feicui the paper with the cause of Zhou Tong's death.
"How is this possible?" Feicui was extremely puzzled. The information on it all pointed to her wife. But she had been by her wife's side during the trip to Qianzhou. There was no way she could have done this.
Su Qingyu gave a bitter smile. Although she didn't know why Zhou Tong said that before he died, she finally understood why Mr. Zhou had attacked her in her previous life.
Mr. Zhou thought that she was the murderer of Zhou Tong.
Of course, Mr. Zhou couldn't be blamed for thinking that. He wouldn't doubt his daughter's dying words, and when he found out about her, he naturally believed them without a doubt.
