Marquis Jinghai was also inconsolable. "Even if you made a mistake, it's not a crime punishable by death. Why can't you let it go?"
Zhao Youping remembered his aunt's fear of Qiao Yujiao and asked, "Where is your second young lady?"
"Are you still doubting my daughter? She's just a girl, what can she do?"
Zhao Youping insisted, "Please ask Miss Qiao to come out and see me. Marquis Jinghai, I suspect your son is taking the blame for Miss Qiao."
Marquis Jinghai didn't believe it: "That's impossible. My daughter is not that kind of person."
Wu ordered, "Go and invite the second young lady."
Marquis Jinghai was incredulous: "Are you also fooling around?"
"Since the police have doubts, we must ask her to come and explain. If we can talk things through, it will put the police at ease. There's nothing we can't see."
Qiao Yujiao came over quickly: "What happened at home? There are so many officials!"
Wu asked her coldly, "Your eldest brother committed suicide. Did you know?"
Qiao Yujiao's eyes suddenly widened. "Impossible! Why would Big Brother commit suicide? This can't be true. Mother, please don't make such jokes, okay?"
The more sad and shocked she was, the more indifferent Wu became. She could tell whether a person was truly sad or not.
Zhao Youping asked, "Ms. Qiao, where did you go last night? Is there anyone who can prove your whereabouts?"
"I didn't go out at all last night. My maid can testify to that. How could a girl like me go out in the middle of the night? My family wouldn't allow it either."
After saying this, he glanced at Mrs. Wu and said, "Mother knows about this too. I'll just say hello and go back."
Mrs. Wu's eyes were so cold that Qiao Yujiao couldn't help but feel a little scared.
Marquis Jinghai said, "I told you long ago that my daughter would never go out. Are you doubting the upbringing of our young lady?"
No young lady would go out in the middle of the night. This is the most basic family education.
Zhao Youping just looked at her deeply and said, "My Lord, please accept my condolences. We will continue to investigate this matter. Goodbye."
Qiao Yujiao said angrily, "It's not a big deal. My brother is dead, and you're still holding on to it. How can you be so cruel?"
Zhao Youping looked at her coldly: "Your brother's death was not caused by me, but the sins he committed will not disappear with his death.
The powerful weapon used last night is also a hidden danger. I will report this to the Emperor and have a thorough investigation."
Qiao Yujiao's face turned pale. She really ended up losing more than she gained.
But she was confident that they couldn't find anything. How could they find something that didn't belong to this era?
After sending away the people from the Dali Temple, Marquis Jinghai was confused. His son was dead, and he died in such an ignominious way. How should he deal with it?
Wu slapped Qiao Yujiao in the face, stunning her: "Why did you hit me?"
"How dare you say that Liang'er's death has nothing to do with you? Stop pretending to be innocent. Your temperament has changed drastically these days. You've coaxed your brother into obeying you and done so many outrageous things. I should have disciplined you long ago."
"Father, please be fair. How is it my fault? Wuwu... I clearly didn't do anything. Outsiders suspect me, and mother also wronged me. My life is so difficult."
Jinghai Hou was extremely annoyed: "Now let's prepare for the child's funeral. This is your only biological daughter, why are you beating her?"
"This is not my daughter."
Qiao Yujiao was shocked. Did she see anything?
Impossible. Time travel is so mysterious, how could she possibly have thought of it?
Mrs. Wu continued, "My daughter is not so cold and cruel. Are you possessed by some foul thing?"
Qiao Yujiao said innocently, "I didn't, Mother. Are you so sad about my elder brother's passing that you're talking nonsense?"
At this moment, Wu's favorability dropped rapidly and turned negative. Did she hate herself so much?
Qiao Yujiao was a little panicked: "Father, I am also very sad, but the living must live. Can you help me speak a fair word?"
Marquis Jinghai also had a dark heart: "Madam, calm down and arrange the funeral for the child first."
"No, my child is not dead. You are the ones who killed him. Get out of here..."
Wu was like a madman, driving everyone away, and holding Qiao Yu with a tormented conscience. The Marquis was sad, but it was limited. He had other sons, but Wu only wanted this one.
They say they treat a concubine's child as their own, but after all, it wasn't their own child, so how can it be the same?
It's just that men force women to compromise in order to maintain family harmony.
Marquis Jinghai understood her sadness and asked everyone to leave first, waiting for the lady to calm down before continuing.
Qiao Yuliang's death caused quite a stir, and many people said it was a pity. He was the future marquis and was about to be named a prince, but he was gone like that. What a pity.
Zhao Youping was also in a bad mood. The real murderer had not been caught, and a prince of a marquisate had died. It was likely that this matter would be difficult to investigate further.
Zhao Letong waited for news at home, but what he heard was Qiao Yuliang's suicide. [This is wrong. Qiao Yuliang had no reason to commit suicide. Even if he did it, he didn't hurt anyone. At most, he should be punished for his crime, but he didn't deserve death.]
[It must be his sister's doing. She wanted to kill Sister Fang to clear the way for the problem. When the truth is revealed, she'll let her brother take the blame.]
[This woman has such a cruel heart! ]
She can actually be the heroine of this world. Is God blind?
"Everyone understands, but it has already happened. What can we do?"
Zhao Letong was dissatisfied. "There's nothing we can do for the living, but that doesn't mean we can't do it for the dead. I don't think Young Master Qiao wants to die like this. Let's go to the Marquis of Jinghai's mansion and take a look."
Zhao Letong came up with a solution. Qiao Yujiao wanted her brother to die, but she refused.
