Chapter 8080 Shi Mansion
The old lady was old and afraid of cold, so she would burn red charcoal in the house to keep warm when the weather was cold. A few days ago, the wind was cold and bleak, so Jiang Yun ordered people to light a charcoal fire in the room, but the residue from a few days ago had already been dealt with and could not be explored.
Su Yan searched carefully in the main room and finally found a tiny piece of mercury in a corner.
Su Yan used bamboo tweezers to put mercury on the handkerchief. Most people would not notice this slight difference.
Liang Yi looked at it for a while, and hesitated to speak.
Su Yan said: "Don't be afraid, the emperor also has this in his elixir that prolongs life and brings immortality."
Liang Yi: “…”
He hid behind Su Yan, "Father has to take the elixir every day, should I remind him?"
Su Yan asked: "Can you see the emperor?"
Liang Yi: “…”
I can't even see my biological father. I feel wronged.
Su Yan looked at Shi Yangui who remained silent, "General Shi, how do you want to resolve this matter?"
Liang Yi said: "Of course we have to catch the murderer! Su Yan, this is your fault. Your grandmother was persecuted. How can we negotiate this matter?"
Su Yan smiled meekly.
I thought to myself - "Stupid, the people who come to Shi Mansion are either family members or relatives and friends, and none of them have simple identities."
Liang Yi suddenly realized, "It will indeed implicate many people... But if the real murderer is not caught, how can my grandmother rest in peace?"
Shi Yangui said: "This is the Shi Mansion's business, we need to discuss it before deciding."
Liang Yi looked at Shi Yan Gui strangely.
Brother Yan Gui has indeed been too cold recently. How can we let the real murderer who killed our grandmother go? We must catch him no matter what method we use.
Su Yan seemed to have anticipated Shi Yangui's reaction, and a smile that seemed to see through everything appeared in his eyes.
Shi Yangui retracted his gaze and said, "We'll decide tomorrow."

While Su Yan was sleeping, his mind was filled with the Shi family's jade pendant.
Shi Yanli's words lingered in his ears - "You can tell the generation from the pattern..."
The jade pendant that Su Yan picked up from the ruins was of a different generation than Shi Yanli's.
Whose jade pendant would appear in Anping Town?
Su Yan was awakened by the maid, "Miss, Miss, someone from the Shi Mansion came over and said they need your help."
At the time, Yan Zheng had already arrived with his men.
Su Yan hurried over, and Yan Zheng and the prefect of Jingzhao were worried.
I was worried, but didn't dare show it too obviously, and felt very conflicted.
Seeing Su Yan, Yan Zheng felt relieved and whispered to her, "You are finally here. Without you, this case would never be solved."
A 180 degree turn in attitude.
Su Yan's face remained calm, but his mind was already busy - "Want to pass on the blame? I won't accept it."
Yan Zheng was as depressed as a dead ash.
Liang Yi always likes to join in the fun, and he arrived earlier than Su Yan. After hearing Yan Zheng's words, he immediately patted his chest and assured, "Su Yan is the smartest, he will definitely catch the murderer!"
Su Yan: “…”
His problem of taking the blame...
Yan Zheng bowed quickly and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness."
Liang Yi said: "It's all as I should!"
Su Yan: “…”
Su Yan pulled Liang Yi aside and watched him sigh.
Liang Yi humbly asked, "Is the case difficult?"
Although liking to take on things will certainly bring trouble, on the other hand, it can also be seen that Liang Yi is indeed pure and kind, so Su Yan gave up arguing with him.
She talked about the case, "Yesterday Yan Gui was unwilling to investigate the case, probably because he was afraid that the old lady's death was related to the court affairs. Today he is willing to investigate again, which shows that there is no connection."
Liang Yi shook his head after hearing this. "Brother Yan Gui is not that kind of person. My grandmother was murdered, and we must find out the truth no matter what. Even if it is related to the court, so what? The court affairs involve innocent people, which is the murderer's fault."
Su Yan said: "Maybe he and the old lady were not close to begin with."
The title of Shi Mansion was previously held by Shi Zheng, and later by Shi Pei, who was in charge.
For many years, Shi Rong's family was in a weak position.
"No matter how close we are, she is still my grandmother," Liang Yi frowned, feeling depressed, "We should find the murderer no matter what... Is it because you have a prejudice against Brother Yan Gui that you think too much? Brother Yan Gui is actually a very good person."
Su Yan gave up discussing this issue with Shi Yangui's number one fan.
All the people in the Shifu gathered at the old lady's residence.
Liang Yi took Su Yan around through a small path, and Yan Zheng followed closely behind.
After entering the room, Su Yan saw that everyone in the Shi Mansion was holding pieces of letter paper in their hands and was handing them to Shi Yangui one after another.
Yan Zheng stepped forward.
Shi Yangui asked: "Any clues?"
Yan Zheng lowered his head in embarrassment, "General, there are no clues."
Shi Yangui said: "Take people to continue searching, search the whole mansion."
Yan Zheng took the order and withdrew.
Chen Lian sat next to Shi Yangui and looked at him with a frown.
Seeing that Shi Yan Gui had no reaction, Chen Lian looked at Su Yan again.
Chen Lian guessed that Su Yan should be a woman of good looks, but she didn't expect her to be so... careless.
Her clothes and hairstyle were casual, and she looked no different from ordinary people on the street. If it weren't for her good looks, she would have been just like everyone else.
It would have been fine if he was just dressed shabbily, but he actually got close to Liang Yi, which was unreasonable.
Chen Lian’s disgust deepened.
Chen Lian was feeling disgusted when a clear female voice came over: "What are you looking at? You have big eyes."
Chen Lian was furious: "What did you say?!"
The room suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at Chen Lian strangely.
Chen Lian said: "How dare you..."
Before he finished speaking, Shi Yangui signaled the maid to take Chen Lian away.
Chen Lian said in disbelief: "You helped her?!"
Shi Yangui said calmly: "Mother, no one was talking just now."
The maid next to Chen Lian nervously advised: "Madam, there is really no one to speak."
Chen Lian looked at Su Yan. Su Yan lowered his head honestly, which made people feel pity for him.
Chen Lian: “?!”
The maids helped Chen Lian out.
The moment she walked out the door, another voice came: "You must be so angry, so angry!"
Chen Lian: “?!”
She turned around and glared at Su Yan resentfully.
Everyone around was puzzled, and some people even whispered, "The Second Madam has always had a bad temper, and today she is even suspicious of us scolding her. Who would dare to do that?"
Chen Lian: “…”
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Chen Lian was forcibly sent away.
Shi Yan Gui said, "It was grandma's birthday. Three days ago, everyone in the mansion came to see grandma."
The eldest lady is pretty and graceful, and she is young and elegant at midnight.
The second wife, Chen Lian, returned home late at midnight.
Shi Pei and his wife were as kind as clouds, and they attended to the ceremony at midnight.
In Shi Yangui's generation, Shi Yanli has an older brother and a younger sister, all of whom have already started families and are not in the capital. They did not arrive in time and are not suspected.
"If you count the servants and maids, there are a lot of people. If someone really wants to harm grandma, they don't have to do it themselves." Shi Yangui said, "I have told everyone that if they can provide clues, there will be a reward."
Su Yan's attention was focused on the word "reward". "Is there a reward?"
Shi Yan Gui said: "Most of the people in the mansion have signed death contracts, so we should be able to find clues. You don't have to worry."
Su Yan: "Ah, no, wait, I want to ask how much you want as a reward?"
Shi Yangui: “?”
Liang Yi said: "At least one hundred taels of silver will be given as a reward!"
Su Yan: “!”
Why would she be a coroner?
