Chapter 96 96 Shi Mansion
A few days ago, everyone in the Shi Mansion was preparing for the old lady's birthday banquet, and people came one after another to congratulate and give gifts.
Only a few days later, white lanterns were hung at the gate of the Shifu Mansion, white banners were hung under the eaves, and the mansion was deserted.
Su Yan hurried into the Shi Mansion and no one stopped him.
Before arriving at the mansion, she sent a letter to Liang Yi, asking him to help.
Liang Yi was already waiting in Shi Mansion.
"Luckily I'm free, why did you suddenly come here again? Is there any clue in the case?"
Liang Yiting didn't want Shi Baiwei to be the murderer.
Shi Zheng is a hypocrite. If it weren't for him, Shi Baiwei would still be the eldest daughter of the Shi family.
Su Yan said: "It's a private matter."
She told Liang Yi about her parents.
Liang Yi was shocked and asked, "You mean, your father is Shi Lin?! You and Brother Yan Gui are siblings?!"
At that time, Yan Gui really had no hope.
Yunxing wins!
Su Yan thought that Shi Yangui was still very indulgent towards her, but it turned out that it was because they were siblings?
Su Yan said: "I don't know either, but someone should know."
"who?"
Su Yan brought Liang Yi to Nanny Wu's room.
Nanny Wu has not yet recovered, so Shi Pei asked a doctor to take care of her. She has just finished taking the medicine.
Su Yan pushed the door and walked in.
The doctor wanted to stop him, but Liang Yi said, "Please go out and wait, old sir."
The doctor glanced at Liang Yi's attire, knowing that he could not afford to offend him, and left.
Su Yan walked to Madam Wu's bedside and asked, "You have followed the old lady since you were a child. Do you have a deep bond with her?"
Nanny Wu slowly raised her head.
She didn't want to pay attention to Su Yan, but there was the little prince next to Su Yan, so she had to reply.
Aunt Wu said, "I have spent my whole life with the old lady."
Su Yan said: "So you must know about Shi Lin."
Nanny Wu was puzzled and asked, "Why did you mention him?"
"I'm just curious about why he left the Shi Mansion," Su Yan said. "Look, the Shi Mansion was doing well. Although it couldn't be said to be very glorious at the time, it was still a family of officials in the capital. Why did he leave?"
Nanny Wu obviously didn't want to talk about the past of the Shi Mansion. She lay down again and said, "I'm old and can't remember clearly. You can ask someone else."
Liang Yi stepped forward to take the blame, "Why don't you know what's good for you? If you don't tell me, I... you will offend me, understand? I will throw you into jail!"
Nanny Wu turned her back to the two of them and said, "Your Highness is kind-hearted and would not do such a thing."
Liang Yi: “…”
He touched his head sheepishly, "I'm such a nice person."
Su Yan: “…”
Su Yan said: "Your Highness has a kind heart, but I am not."
Aunt Wu said, "You are not kind, but you have no power."
Liang Yi: "What a sharp eye!"
Su Yan: “…”
Su Yan didn't have the energy to argue with Liang Yi today, so she got straight to the point: "I don't have the power, but I know one thing."
Nanny Wu snorted coldly.
"You hanged yourself, did you really just want to follow the old lady?"
Liang Yi said: "Then is it still false?"
Su Yan: Shut up first.
Liang Yi: "Oh, okay."
Nanny Wu closed her eyes and rested. "My loyalty to the old lady is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people."
"I never mentioned the word loyalty," Su Yan said, "Why should I emphasize it?"
Nanny Wu frowned.
Su Yan said: "I'm afraid he did something to let the old lady down, and he's afraid of being discovered, so he emphasizes his loyalty."
Liang Yi asked: "Did she do something bad to the old lady?"
Su Yan: "Even if Nanny Wu didn't do it herself, the old lady's death is probably related to her."
Aunt Wu couldn't help herself and stood up and said, "You are talking nonsense!"
"I wasn't sure at first," Su Yan sneered, "but your reaction is enough to explain everything. I don't have time to amuse you today. Shi Baiwei often walks around outside dressed as a maid or a nanny. I have read her confession. She often comes to the old lady's courtyard. You take care of all the trivial matters in the courtyard. Do you really not know Shi Baiwei's identity?"
Su Yan's eyes were sharp.
Liang Yi didn't dare to make any more jokes. He knew the importance of this matter to Su Yan, so he said, "You better tell us. We have no ill intentions."
Nanny Wu was still hesitant.
Su Yan said: "I think you committed suicide not because you wanted to accompany the old lady, but because you found that your indulgence of Shi Baiwei led to Shi Baiwei's success in attacking the old lady, and you felt guilty, so you committed suicide to apologize!"
Liang Yi tried his best not to appear so surprised.
Every time Su Yan said something, he was surprised and felt so stupid.
He had an expression that showed he had guessed it a long time ago, "Without help, it won't be easy for Shi Baiwei to come and go freely in the mansion."
Su Yan walked towards Nanny Wu and glanced at her fiercely, not giving her a chance to explain. "We will know your relationship with Shi Baiwei after checking. If you still don't tell the truth, I will tell everyone about it! I wonder if you can still hold your head up in the Shi Mansion?"
Liang Yi whispered: "Don't really force her, she has already committed suicide once."
"She only has the courage to commit suicide once. If she is determined to follow the old lady, she will have hundreds of chances. Aunt Wu, I just need you to answer a few questions. I ask you and you answer. After you answer, we will leave." Su Yan softened his attitude, "I know you don't mean to harm the old lady. You are a pitiful young lady. This is human nature. It shows that you are kind-hearted."
Liang Yi shook his head helplessly.
Su Yan's combination of soft and hard tactics almost coaxed the person away.
Nanny Wu was really emotional and burst into tears, "I...how could I harm the old lady? I just...ah!"
But seeing that Bai Wei felt sorry for her, he couldn't bear to report her and even went to deliver meals to her from time to time.
It can be said that Nanny Wu watched Shi Baiwei grow up.
There was only this baby in the mansion at that time. She often went to the old lady's room. The old lady was not very enthusiastic about her and always asked Nanny Wu to take care of her.
The old and the young have long had feelings for each other.
Later, what Shi Zheng had done was known to the old lady, and the first thing she considered was the reputation of the Shi family.
If this matter gets out, the Shi family will lose face.
This matter would also become Zhao Mingde's handle to control the Shi Mansion, so the old lady decided to get rid of the source.
Shi Baiwei's death not only preserves her own reputation, but also the reputation of the Shi family.
Shi Zheng did not object.
Shi Baiwei is not Fang Niao's daughter, so she naturally would not object.
So the three of them began to arrange for Shi Baiwei's "illness".
Before the old lady was murdered, Shi Baiwei heard her conversation with Fang Niao and felt sad and angry when she thought about her life that had been changed.
Why should she live in darkness while the old lady and Fang Niao live a life of luxury?
Shi Baiwei decided to take revenge.
She had a close relationship with Nanny Wu and did not hide it.
Nanny Wu felt sorry for Shi Baiwei, but also had feelings for the old lady, so she was caught in the middle.
In the end, she decided to ignore the matter. Whether Shi Baiwei succeeded or not was God's will.
Shi Baiwei succeeded, and used Shi Zheng's preferences to kill the old lady.
Nanny Wu knew that she was involved in this matter and decided to die.
But after that strong thought faded away, she wanted to continue living.
Nanny Wu said, "Bai Wei is a poor child. No one treats her sincerely. It's not easy for her to endure for more than ten or twenty years. The old lady is actually very kind to others, at least to me. I can't understand why she is so cruel to Bai Wei, but I have no choice and can't persuade her. The old lady didn't care about Bai Wei's death at all. I'm not surprised that Bai Wei finally wanted to kill her after hearing their conversation."
Liang Yi said: "Actually you should have stopped her, at least she still had a chance to survive, now she has to go to jail."
"Do you understand that hatred? Is it better to let her take revenge or to stop her? Can you explain it clearly?"
Liang Yi: “…”
There was no one he wanted to take revenge on, and he couldn't explain it clearly.
Nanny Wu looked at Su Yan, "What exactly do you want to ask?"
She now also hopes that she can have a way to survive.
Su Yan said: "I just want to know why Shi Lin left the Shi Mansion and whether he was married when he left."
Why did Yingying become a "vegetable"? Did she leave the capital together with Su Mao, or did they meet outside the capital?
Nanny Wu replied, "He was forced to leave."
"elopement?"
Nanny Wu shook her head. "Back then, the late emperor was still in power, and the empress was the Yan family. The power of the foreign relatives was not weak. The Yan family had a general who wanted to kill the eunuchs, but the plan was leaked and he was killed instead. The entire Yan family was liquidated."
Liang Yi asked curiously: "Is this related to Shi Lin?"
"Originally it was unrelated, but it is related," said Nanny Wu. "He was in love with Yan Ying, the sister of the Queen Yan. When the Yan family was exterminated, he secretly hid Yan Ying. The old lady knew about this, and of course she would not allow him to keep Yan Ying. He had no choice but to take Yan Ying away."
Yanying, Yingying.
So the mother that Su Yan has been seeing for more than ten years but hasn't been able to say a word to is Yan Ying?
Su Yan asked: "Was Yanying pregnant at that time?"
Nanny Wu glanced at Su Yan and said, "How should I know? Yanying was already seriously injured when he arrived at the Shi Mansion. The doctor was called by the old lady. Although the old lady was worried about being implicated, she loved the fourth son the most, so she let him go. Yanying was not conscious when he left."
Su Yan frowned tightly.
No, this is totally wrong.
It was true that she traveled through time and space and became a baby, but before she traveled through time and space...who was she?
Su Yan asked, "When he came back, he only brought Yanying with him? No children?"
"I have never seen them," said Nanny Wu. "I dare to tell this story because I think they are no longer alive. Even if they are still alive, they will never return to Beijing. They had been secretly in contact with the old lady, but suddenly lost contact a few years ago. The old lady realized that he was no longer alive and was sad for a long time."
Su Yan asked: "The old lady didn't receive the letter, so she concluded that he is no longer alive?"
Nanny Wu nodded.
"No other sources of information?"
"Not that I know of."
This is even more wrong.
Su Yan and Liang Yi left Nanny Wu's room.
Liang Yi asked in a low voice: "Go ask Brother Yan Gui?"
Shi Yangui is from the Shi family. He clearly knew that Su Mao and Yingying were murdered, but he didn't tell the old lady?
Aren’t he and the old lady in the same group?
Was it really just a coincidence that Shi Yangui came to the Su family?
And...if Yingying couldn't wake up, where did she come from?
Su Mao wouldn't be so crazy as to have a relationship with Yingying, right?
Shi Yangui hid too much from her.
Su Yan said: "It's best not to ask him."
"Why?"
"He's not normal," Su Yan warned, "You have to be careful of him too. His recent behavior is very strange, as if he has become a different person. I don't understand why this is happening, so be careful anyway."
"Is there?"
Liang Yi didn't notice it at all.
Su Yan remained silent.
Shi Yangui suddenly came out from the darkness and asked, "You... went to see Aunt Wu?"
