Use a substitute on your wedding night to scatter the ashes of your entire family
Chapter 537: Long-term Planning
Shu Wenbo withdrew his gaze only when Hongshuang disappeared around the corner.
Now Hongshuang always avoids him, which makes him very uncomfortable.
She had let it go long ago, but she was the one who couldn't let go.
I always want to see her, but I am afraid to see her.
Liang Tianyou casually took a piece of dessert and threw it into his mouth, saying vaguely: "Don't worry, Princess. Fu Chenhui is a pervert. He took a fancy to a girl in a brothel and wanted to take her for himself."
"But the girl had a lover, Su Binxu, the legitimate son of the Marquis of Yongning, so she swore to die rather than obey. Somehow, Su Binxu found out about this, and the two had an argument and even a fight."
Li Shuangwan asked hurriedly: "How many people know about this?"
Liang Tianyou shook his head: "Not much, only the girl in the brothel knew. Yongning Hou and his wife Liu kept him very strict, and he kept the fact that Su Binxu was having an affair with a prostitute a secret, so no one knew about it."
Li Shuangwan felt relieved. If someone knew about this, the three major departments would jointly investigate the case and would eventually get to the bottom of it.
Shu Wenbo said: "And now that Fu Chenhui is dead and Su Binxu knows his identity, it is even more impossible to let anyone know about this."
Li Shuangwan turned sideways to look at the man lying on the couch: "That girl in the brothel, wasn't she arranged by you? Did you deliberately get close to Su Binxu, and deliberately let Fu Chenhui fall in love with her?"
Gu Xingyan didn't even open his eyes, with a smile on his face: "Lin Musen's people."
Li Shuangwan smiled. She knew that this man always looked a hundred steps ahead before taking one step.
Liang Tianyou said hurriedly: "Before our delegation came to Northern Jin, Brother Nine had already sent a message to Lord Lin to make arrangements. So she had already entered that brothel three months ago. Even if Bai Hongxian and the others found the brothel, they couldn't trace it back to us."
"Did Su Binxu really kill Fu Chenhui?"
Gu Xingyan nodded: "The two of you will fight, whoever wins will get the beauty."
"But, Fu Chenhui is the son of Commander Fu Sheng, how could he not be able to defeat Su Binxu?"
Shu Wenbo shook his head: "Don't think that Su Binxu is a lecherous dandy. His father is also a civil servant. But this man is born with supernatural powers and is a martial arts talent. His martial arts skills are not low."
Liang Tianyou took over the conversation: "Besides, that Fu Chenhui is a idiot, otherwise why would his father let him follow the delegation to Northern Jin, just thinking of picking up some of the credit now."
Shu Wenbo nodded: "After the incident, Lin Musen arranged for the girl to leave."
Li Shuangwan said quickly: "After Fu Chenhui died, the girl left. Wouldn't that be too deliberate and arouse suspicion? And there is also Su Binxu. If he reacts and feels that something is wrong..."
Shu Wenbo shook his head: "Little sister, don't worry. Lord Lin replaced her with a female corpse. Even if the coroner performs an autopsy, he will only find that she died of a sudden heart attack. There will be no problem. Even if Su Binxu comes to the door, he won't be able to make any trouble."
What's more, at this critical juncture, if Su Binxu was a smart person, he would just turn a blind eye and would never hold on to this matter.
When a prostitute died in a brothel, her body was either thrown into a mass grave or buried in a thin coffin, and the matter was concluded hastily.
Gu Xingyan raised his eyelids and looked at her: "Madam, are you relieved now?"
Li Shuangwan glared at him. His elder brother and Liang Tianyou were all there. "Yes, Your Highness the Ninth Prince is planning every step of the way. This princess has nothing to worry about."
Shu Wenbo and Liang Tianyou quickly pretended not to hear and left.
No wonder he asked me to go find my grandfather yesterday and ask her to find a way to resign from the post of Dali Temple Chief Justice today, no matter what.
My grandfather had submitted his resignation several times. He had served in the position of Dali Temple Minister for decades and had seen all kinds of things in the world. He had long been disappointed with the current court of Northern Jin. He was indeed physically and mentally exhausted and did not want to do the job anymore.
As soon as she said that, my grandfather immediately thought of pretending to be sick.
Li Shuangwan knew that Ling Heng was suspicious, so he asked Hongshuang to invite Luo Luo's adoptive father, Doctor Guo, and asked him if there was any medicine that could be taken to create the illusion of a serious illness, which would make it impossible to tell even by taking the patient's pulse.
Doctor Guo immediately went back to the People's Hospital and brought back a porcelain bottle, saying that it was left behind by Lolo before he passed away.
Unexpectedly, it really came in handy.
Seeing that her frowned brows had relaxed slightly, Gu Xingyan reached out and pulled her into his arms.
"You only care about the case and not me. I haven't slept all night and I'm very sleepy now."
Li Shuangwan was almost laughing because of him. Who was he who looked so energetic just now? Why did he become so sleepy as soon as they left?
……
Aunt Tong had never been seen again since she was pushed out of the house by Li Shuangxi that afternoon.
The door of her room was closed and no one was seen.
Aunt Tong knocked on the door several times, but Li Shuangxi didn't answer her.
She thought Xier was still angry with her.
In front of the door, he said a lot of nice words and admitted that he was wrong in various ways, but the tightly closed door just wouldn't open.
It wasn't until the third day that she realized something was wrong.
No matter how angry Xier was with her, they lived in the same yard, and it was impossible for her not to see her even once in these three days.
By the evening, Aunt Tong thought more and more that something was not right. She could no longer sit still and brought a stool from her room.
"Xiaoer, open the door. If you don't open the door, Auntie will really break it down."
No sound came from the house.
Aunt Tong grabbed the stool beside her and slammed it against the door.
There were only a few servants serving in Shulan Courtyard, and they all rushed over here.
Despite such a loud commotion, not a single sound came from inside. The servants thought something was wrong and came over to help immediately.
After a while, the door was kicked open.
The floor was in a mess. All the things that Zhilanyuan had sent three days ago were thrown all over the floor.
There is no trace of Li Shuangxi.
When Aunt Tong saw the situation in the house clearly, she felt her head buzzing. She rushed in crying and desperately searched among the ruins.
"Xi'er, come out, Xi'er, don't scare your aunt, Xi'er..."
The house was so small, and we searched every corner, including the closets, under the bed, and anywhere else someone could hide.
No!
A maid quickly grabbed Aunt Tong, who was still rummaging through a pile of cloth like a madman.
"Aunt Tong, go find the Second Madam and ask her to send someone to look for the person! How could a living person like the Third Miss be hidden in this pile of cloth?"
Aunt Tong's face turned pale and she just kept crying. She didn't listen to the old woman's words at all. She grabbed her hand and cried loudly.
"Xi'er, my Xi'er is missing. She must be resenting me for not giving her the identity of a legitimate daughter and not wanting me anymore. Nanny Lan, what should I do? What should I do..."
Aunt Tong cried so hard that she almost died, and she kept saying, "What should I do? What should I do? My Xier is missing..."
The old women were extremely anxious, but Aunt Tong seemed to be possessed by a demon. She just kept crying and had no idea what to do.
The old woman gritted her teeth and didn't care about hierarchy anymore. She slapped Aunt Tong in the face with a slap to wake her up quickly.
"Go find the Second Madam for help. Aunt Tong, what's the point of crying now? Tomorrow is the day when Lord Lu takes the Third Miss as his concubine. Now the Third Miss is missing. Tomorrow the Lu family will come to ask for her. What are you going to give them?"
