Because the matter happened suddenly, when Luo Xuening heard the news from the servant, her face changed. She turned around and walked towards the Prime Minister's Mansion with the servant.
Luo Xue Ning recognized this servant. He was someone close to Madam Gu. The fact that he came to deliver a message to her meant that he had prepared a banquet for her. However, Luo Xue Ning had to go back. She still had responsibilities there.
After returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Luo Xu Ning could clearly feel that the atmosphere in the Mansion was different today. The servant took Luo Xu Ning straight to Madam Ye's courtyard, which made Luo Xu Ning even a little suspicious. The servant said that someone had died in the Mansion. Could it be that Gu had already taken action against Madam Ye?
These days, the mother and daughter have been too aggressive, which naturally made Gu dissatisfied. Moreover, in the last Liu Jing case, the murderer was found to be the eldest lady's sister. Gu would definitely inquire about the situation.
If the eldest lady didn't know that it was herself who assisted Long Moxun in investigating the case, it would be fine. At least, she would not dare to act rashly against Concubine Ye. However, if the eldest lady really heard some rumors and thought that her sister's death was related to herself, and thus implicated Concubine Ye, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Luo Xue Ning's face turned pale all the way. The servant saw her nervousness and laughed contemptuously. Luo Xue Ning Tiantongyuan glanced at him indifferently and did not make trouble in the end.
Some people, who are not in danger themselves, naturally don't think about the suffering of others. She has no intention of arguing with others now, she just wants to see Aunt Ye as soon as possible.
Worried in her heart, Luoxuening quickened her pace. When she arrived at the gate of Aunt Ye's yard, she heard Aunt Ye's loud crying. Luoxuening heaved a sigh of relief and quietly walked up to Aunt Ye.
"Auntie, what happened?"
"Dead..."
Aunt Ye's eyes widened. She helplessly grasped Luo Xue Ning's shoulders, her fingertips trembling slightly. Luo Xue Ning raised her hand and pressed down Aunt Ye's shoulders, which were shaking slightly because of fear.
"Who died?"
"Yes, it's He Momo. My daughter, He Momo is dead. It's so terrible..."
The cloud cake in Luo Xuening's hand fell to the ground, and along with Luo Xuening's heart, it shattered into pieces.
When she went out this morning, she was still excited to tell He Momo and Luo Xia that she would give them two bags of cloud cakes, but in just a few hours...
I can no longer eat cloud cakes...
Luo Xuening couldn't listen to anything else Madam Ye said. How could the original owner's wet nurse, Madam Ye's personal maid, die?
"You guys, tell me, is what she said true? How did He Momo die?"
Luo Xue Ning knew that asking Aunt Ye would be useless, so she turned around and asked the maids. Her voice was cold and sad. She could conclude that He Momo was really dead, but she couldn't bear it and wanted to ask more clearly. She just hoped that this was just a joke from Aunt Ye.
"Miss, it's true. He was pushed into the bowl and drowned."
“What…?”
Luo Xue Ning only felt a loud bang in her mind, and then something exploded. He Momo was killed by someone.
He Momo has always been honest and kind, and never makes enemies with anyone. Who would want to kill her?
Luo Xue Ning covered her face, tears rolling down from the corners of her eyes. She bit her lip, trying her best not to cry out loud. He Momo died because of her, so she couldn't let the heartbreak interfere with her judgment. She wanted to go and see He Momo's body.
"You guys, settle the lady down, and you, take me to see He Momo."
Luo Xuening tried hard to suppress her grief, and hatred was clearly evident in her choked voice.
Gu, who else except the eldest lady Gu would do this to He Mo? No wonder she was so impatient to send someone to find her. It turned out that she wanted to see with her own eyes how sad she would be when she heard the bad news.
However, she would not let Gu get his wish.
It is said that He Momo was pushed into the pond behind Aunt Ye's yard and drowned. The body was in the pond for a long time before it was pulled out. When the maid told Luo Xuening about these circumstances, she couldn't help but look at Luo Xuening with worry, because He Momo's death was extremely tragic, and she was afraid that a young lady like Luo Xuening would not be able to bear to watch it.
When she arrived at the dining table in the backyard, Luo Xuening saw at a glance a person lying on the damp ground. At one glance, Luo Xuening was sure that it was He Momo. This was the clothes that He Momo was wearing this morning.
Luo Xuening took a look at the fabric. Although it was not worn out, it was a little pale. Her nose felt sore and she was heartbroken beyond words.
He Momo took care of her and her daughter all their lives, but she didn't even have a good piece of clothing to wear until she died. Although she was not the original owner and He Momo had no grace to raise her, after spending these days together, she had already regarded He Momo as a family member.
Gu Lan, if you really did this, I will never forgive you.
Luo Xuening clenched her fists. She raised her feet and was about to step forward, but she heard a familiar voice: "Go away, don't touch me..."
Luo Xuening was very familiar with this voice, it was her maid, Luoxia's. She turned around and saw that Luoxia was being chased by several servants, and her clothes had been torn off in a large piece. She was naked, her hair was disheveled, and her face was filled with panicked tears.
These people just killed her wet nurse, and now they are trying to harm her maid?
"stop!"
Luo Xuening shouted angrily and protected Luoxia behind her, standing between Luoxia and the group of servants.
"Servants from which courtyard, in broad daylight, do you think the head lady of the Luo family is dead?"
The old lady of the Luo family has long since stopped caring about Ten. The current head lady of the Luo family is the eldest lady, Gu.
How could Luo Xuening not know which courtyard these people who were coming in such a strong momentum were from? She said this just to call out the eldest lady who was watching the show in the dark.
The eldest lady who was hiding in the dark, when she heard Luo Xue Ning's words, her face turned pale and she gritted her teeth in anger. Luo Xue Ning, you dare to curse her to death?
At this time, the eldest lady had no idea that Luo Xuening not only dared to curse her to death, but also dared to take her life. It was just a matter of time.
"Shut up! Who the hell are you to disrespect your mother?"
Luo Xue raised her brows, completely disdaining the eldest lady's anger: "Who am I, and who is my mother?"
She had heard a lot of unpleasant words and didn't care. However, the eldest lady's face suddenly turned red and white.
After a while, she raised her eyes and glanced at Luoxia who was hiding behind Luoxuening, with a smug smile on her lips: "Your maid killed someone."
The eldest lady had a smug look on her face, with the corner of her mouth raised to one side and her eyes squinting. This was her provocation. Everything was done by the eldest lady.
The look in the eldest lady's eyes when she looked at Luo Xuening was still filled with undisguised disgust, but not anger. With just this one look, Luo Xuening concluded that the eldest lady did not know that she was involved in the death of her own sister.
Therefore, the eldest lady killed He Momo and accused Luo Xia of being the murderer simply because she disliked them, mother and daughter.
Luo Xuening looked at the eldest lady as if she were a madman. In large families, fighting is common. As long as no one's life is involved, no one will care. Of course, even if someone's life is involved, people with the means will find a reason to cover it up.
But this eldest lady, not only did she kill someone, she also wanted to make a big deal out of it. I really don’t know if she is naive or stupid. Does she really think that she, Luo Xue Ning, is still the soft persimmon that she can do whatever she wants?
Gu Lan, you can do bad things, but you have to bear the consequences.
Luo Xue Ning snorted coldly, cast a comforting look at Luo Xia behind her, and then looked at the eldest lady, as if she could see through her with just one glance.
"Madam, are you a coroner or a judge? How can you tell at a glance that my maid is the murderer?"
