Chapter 258: Trying to Conceal the Murder of Gao Yan's Wife

When Fu Yuzheng and her maid rushed to Qiuyang Courtyard, Gao Yan was already unconscious in the yard, and Shen Yan was dead. Her limbs and head had all been chopped off, leaving only a headless body lying in the middle of the hall.

The house was flooded with blood.

It's really horrible!

"I didn't expect that Gao Yan, who always regarded himself as a 'gentleman', would be so cruel when he went crazy?"

Fu Yuzheng pursed her lips in mockery.

At this time, there were chaotic footsteps outside the courtyard. Fu Yuzheng realized that Madam Gao had brought people here, so she quickly lowered her voice and told Shihua:

"Shihua, sneak out and tell Shen Yan's family. Tell them that Gao Yan killed Shen Yan and brutally dismembered her."

After receiving the order, Shihua immediately climbed over the wall and left.

Afterwards, Fu Yuzheng walked around Gao Yan who was lying in the yard, and hurried out to meet him. She blocked the elderly Madam Gao at the door and prevented her from coming in.

"Zheng'er, please tell me quickly, what happened in there?" asked Mrs. Gao anxiously.

Fu Yuzheng did not hide anything and spoke in a low voice:

"Grandmother, after the prince regained consciousness, he rushed here with a big knife and killed the prince's wife."

Upon hearing this, Madam Gao staggered and almost fell.

Fu Yuzheng hurriedly supported Madam Gao and gently advised, "Grandma, there is blood flowing in there now, it is fishy and smelly, so please don't go in, so as not to disturb you."

Rivers of blood?

Madam Gao was quite old and had rich life experience. Just by hearing the words "blood flowed like a river", she vaguely guessed that Gao Yan's methods were probably extremely cruel.

Sin ah.

It is truly a sin.

At this time, Fu Yuzheng advised again: "Grandma, please don't worry, take care of yourself, you should go back first. Let my mother take care of this place, she will take care of it properly."

When Lin was mentioned, Madam Gao suddenly snorted in dissatisfaction: "She? Forget it."

Afterwards, Madam Gao quickly told Fu Yuzheng, "Zheng'er, quickly send a servant to the Fahua Temple to deliver a letter to your father-in-law, asking him to come back quickly to handle it personally."

Today, the Duke of Zhenguo went to the Fahua Temple to pray for the safety of his son Gao Yan.

"Okay, grandma, Zheng'er knows about it and will send a servant to tell you right away. Don't worry, old lady."

Fu Yuzheng tried her best to persuade her elderly grandmother to leave.

When Fu Yuzheng called a servant and told him to hurry to Fahua Temple...

Lin, who had fainted in the main room, woke up, but when she opened her eyes, she saw Shen Yan's bloody head, and she was so scared that she screamed!

Then he ran out of the door like a madman.

It was not until she tripped over Gao Yan, who had fainted in the yard, and fell on him that Lin gradually regained her senses.

After regaining his senses, the first thing Lin thought of was to conceal the fact that his son had murdered his wife.

She immediately gathered all the servants present and said with a heavy face:

"That whore Shen Yan cheated on her husband before marriage. She deserves to die! Our prince did nothing wrong!"

"However, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble for the prince, we have to speak with one voice and say that Shen Yan encountered bandits while out for an outing and unfortunately died. Did you all hear it clearly?"

It turned out that according to the laws of the Great Zhou Kingdom, if a concubine of low rank committed a crime, the mistress of the house could either beat her to death or sell her, or do whatever she wanted with her.

If the wife makes a mistake, generally speaking, the head of the family can only punish her or divorce her and send her back to her parents' home, but he cannot kill her at will.

Once you kill someone, you will most likely end up in jail!

That's why Lin hurriedly ordered her servants... to lie with her and to protect Gao Yan at all costs.

The servants all bowed their heads and replied, "Yes, ma'am, I heard it clearly."

Lin nodded with satisfaction, and then asked the head maid Jiao Xing to give rewards, five taels of silver to each servant as a hush money.

However, what Lin did not expect was that Fu Yuzheng, who was standing outside the courtyard gate, heard every word she said clearly.

Fu Yuzheng just sneered. This Lin was really bold. He even wanted to conceal the murder of his wife?

What a pity, she will never let her get what she wants.

Sure enough, not long after, the concierge came running to find Lin and reported anxiously:

"Madam, something terrible has happened. The family of the Crown Prince's wife has come to our house, saying that our Crown Prince has killed their daughter and they want blood for blood!"

Lin: ???

She had clearly asked her servants to keep their mouths shut and even paid them hush money, so which bastard leaked the news?

what?
