Chapter 320 Too Many Clues Equal No Clues
"How could this happen?" This time it was Ye Lanxin who was shocked.
Unexpectedly, she was the first one who couldn't help it.
She never thought that such a situation would happen.
"The Ye family, the Zhou family, and the Prince Duan's Mansion?" Wen Zimei couldn't help it, especially when he heard the Prince Duan's Mansion.
She had an ominous premonition in her heart. This matter seemed to be developing in a direction beyond their control.
Zhou Zhili nodded gravely. "Yes, the government is investigating the source of these things, but the situation is currently unfavorable to us. Qingdai is dead, and the clues point to us. Isn't this ridiculous? We have experienced the death of our younger generation, and yet we are still being treated as suspects."
As Zhou Zhili was speaking, Zhou Yuxiu and the others arrived.
Obviously, they heard what was just said.
"Father, this must be a mistake made by the government. It seems the bandits want to frame our three families to confuse people and make them lose track of their identities..."
After Ye Lingyue came in, she said directly.
Zhou Yuxiu then said, "That's right, sister has never offended anyone in these years, so she shouldn't have suffered this misfortune... Maybe this group of people is coming for our three families..."
Zhou Yuzhi didn't say anything. Now the people in Prince Duan's Mansion could understand how painful it was for him when he was wrongly accused.
As for Wen Zimei, after he knew that Wen Zimei was the murderer of his mother, he only had hatred for her.
Wen Zimei's thoughts were indeed disrupted. She looked at the people in front of her, still thinking in her heart, could it be that someone discovered the existence of those people?
This is obviously impossible, as she hasn't used those people for a long time.
When my sister wanted to borrow someone from me before, I refused.
As for Ye Chenglei’s case, my sister asked other gangsters to do it.
The fact that they used a mysterious team back then has always been a secret and cannot be revealed, otherwise there will be a lot of trouble.
But what Zhou Zhili said just now was clearly leading the clues to those people.
Wen Zimei forced herself to remain calm. She said, "Yu Xiu, don't say anything careless. Our three families have always been clean and honest. How could we have any enemies? You must be mistaken."
Zhou Zhili looked at Wen Zimei. He knew that Wen Zimei was guilty, but he did not expose her.
Anyway, he won't be doing any work, so just leave it to the government.
"I hope so, sister-in-law. This matter has alarmed the emperor. Now our three families are under the emperor's nose. If we make the slightest mistake, we will be doomed." Zhou Zhili said.
Upon hearing this, Concubine Wen's face turned even paler.
Her current situation is not good. If this matter really affects Prince Duan's Mansion, she will have no way to explain to the prince and princess.
Ye Lanxin pretended to realize the seriousness of the matter and said, "Master, what should we do now?"
Zhou Zhili sighed and said, "Now, we can only do our best to cooperate with the government's investigation. I hope they can find the truth as soon as possible."
Ye Lingyue also said: "That's right, we can't lose our composure, we must find the real murderer!"
Wen Zimei looked at their performance and wondered if these people really knew nothing.
When the servants from Prince Duan's Mansion came in, everyone became nervous again.
"My Lady Concubine, the Prince and Princess have returned home. After hearing about your situation, they sent me here to tell you that Madam Zhou needs the support of her family. I allow you to stay here with the Second Young Master and the County Lady for a few days. You can return after helping Madam Zhou handle Miss Zhou's funeral."
Concubine Wen was in a complicated mood. Although the prince and princess were very generous, the people here obviously did not welcome her.
"Okay, go back and tell them I'm grateful for your understanding, Prince and Princess. I'll take care of everything in the next few days and then I'll go back naturally."
As a marquis, Zhou Zhili naturally did not refuse the Duan Wang family's idea of staying here. After all, the prince and the princess had already made their promise.
Moreover, they stayed and lived in Wen Zimei's yard, which had nothing to do with them.
"Sister-in-law, this is good. With your family around, you can feel more relaxed..."
Wen Zimei looked at Zhou Zhili's ambiguous expression and wanted to ask directly whether the matter was really related to them.
They had just settled down when another piece of news spread in Dizhou City, and more and more people became interested.
Even the Zhou family had heard that Gu Ruanci's cosmetics shop, Xiao Chunfeng, was about to open.
"Laughing Spring Breeze? Humph, she can come up with such a vulgar name..."
Ye Lanxin was naturally unhappy and even complained.
Zhou Yuxiu and Zhou Yuzhi did not respond, they both thought it was very polite.
Especially Zhou Yuxiu, who almost had a quarrel with Ye Lanxin.
I had already thought about drawing a clear line between myself and Ye Lanxin, but because of Ye Lingyue's efforts and protection, I really couldn't do it.
"This is her ability, but the timing is indeed a bit subtle." Zhou Yuxiu simply shifted the focus to another aspect.
Ye Lanxin didn't say anything, but Ye Lingyue had already spoken: "Yes, something big happened to the Zhou family, and it seems to have made her feel better."
Zhou Yuzhi has never changed his mind. He still thinks that Gu Runci shouldn't hold a grudge for so long. After all, everything has been made clear. She is alive and well, but two people in the Zhou family have died. Why can't she let it go?
"Hmph, she's just ungrateful and wants to cause trouble for our Zhou family. Now that she has everything she wanted, she insists on dwelling on the past and has no gratitude at all. Without my father's bloodline, she had no right to be born..."
"Contentment? Why should she be content? Just because we say a few nice words to her, does that mean she has to forget the past? What are you thinking?"
Zhou Yuxiu, who was standing by, couldn't help but scold him.
Zhou Yuzhi opened his mouth wide, having never expected to be scolded by his brother like this.
She wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Ye Lingyue: "Alright, Yuzhi, it's over, let's not talk about it anymore. The most important thing now is Zhou Qingdai's matter. It's clear that my aunt won't let this go. I don't know what they'll find out in the end."
"Then let her investigate. Her hands are not clean at all and she should have paid the price long ago. Now Zhou Qingdai is just helping her pay the interest in advance." Zhou Yuxiu's words were even more merciless.
Zhou Zhili sighed. He knew his eldest son's temper. Once he made up his mind about something, it would be difficult for him to change it.
He wanted to avenge Ye Hesheng.
Over the past ten years, the three brothers have hated Ye Hesheng for abandoning them cruelly, but now the eldest son has completely rejected the ideas he instilled in him.
He seemed to want to spare no effort to compensate Gu Ruanci. Such an idea was really dangerous.
Zhou Zhili looked at Zhou Yuzhi again. His second son seemed to be consistent, but was it really necessary for him to change the crown prince?
