[Seven-Five Doujin] Zhan Guard, please stay!

"My son, why are you so cruel, you just abandoned your mother and your sister..."

When Huangfu Nan, Zhan Zhao and others entered Chen's house, they heard the woman's cry from a distance.

The manager of the Chen residence led the way quickly, "The floating corpse in the lake is our third son, and the crying we heard now is his mother and second aunt. The third son said the day before yesterday that he was going to pick lotus in the lake. Don't let anyone disturb you, at noon today, a maid secretly went to pick lotus seeds by the lake and found his body."

Gongsun Ce: "Going to pick lotus the day before yesterday? If the third son stumbled and fell into the lake the day before yesterday, it means that he hasn't appeared in the mansion for two days, and you didn't even notice?"

The steward sighed and said: "You guys don't know that the lotus in the house was planted by the third son. He has always liked this kind of elegant thing. He often goes boating in the lake with people all night to enjoy the moon and spends the night in the lake. That's a very common thing, not to mention our current people, even the second aunt and the second girl are no strangers to it. Who knew that this time the third son would—"

The boss paused for a while, but finally didn't continue.

Zhan Zhao said: "Sorrow and change."

The old housekeeper was silent for a while, and then said: "I'm afraid this house has bad Fengshui, otherwise how could accidents happen again and again?" He said, looking back at Gongsun Ce, and asked: "I heard that you They came from Kaifeng City, and there were many people accompanying them, is there any eminent monk accompanying him, if there is someone, can he come and chant sutras for us to drive away evil spirits?"

Huangfu Nan: "..."

Huangfu Nan felt that the Chen residence used its actual actions to show how the words "wealthy and powerful" are written. The artificial lake full of lotus is very large, and there are bursts of elegant lotus fragrance. There are steps going down in front, and there are two bamboos beside the lake. The raft was parked there, looking towards the opposite side, it was lush and green, and there was a feeling that the opposite bank could not be seen.On the left side of the lake is the garden of the Chen residence. The housekeeper is the wife and ladies of the family. The wives and ladies of the family often invite the wives and ladies of other families to have a tea party in the garden, chatting while admiring the flowers. , A plum grove was planted here.

The three of them looked at the surrounding environment while walking, and suddenly Zhan Zhao stopped.

Huangfu Nan looked sideways at him suspiciously, only to see that he was looking ahead with a slight frown.Following his gaze, there was a crowd of people in front of him. There was a middle-aged lady in expensive clothes who was crying faintly. Two young girls were supporting her. She didn't look like a woman. maid.

The steward: "The one crying so heartbroken is our second aunt. The one supporting the second aunt, the one on the left is the second girl in our house, and the one on the right is the second girl's friend, Miss Ding. She is here to look for the second aunt. The girl was playing, but she didn't expect to encounter such a thing. Alas!"

Huangfu Nan blinked, "Miss Ding?"

"Miss Ding Yuehua is the cousin of the owner of Ding's residence in Hangzhou. She has lived in Ding's residence since she was a child. She is the heart of Mrs. Ding. She has been raised as her own daughter since she was a child." The manager explained.

Huangfu Nan nodded suddenly. No wonder Zhan Zhao had such a reaction.

Several people walked over, the manager introduced Gongsun Ce and others, and Gongsun Ce went to check the corpse.But Zhan Zhao and Huang Fu Nan stayed at the same place and asked some questions of the family members. The second aunt was too emotional and couldn't communicate at all, so Chen Ruxue, the second girl of the Chen family, did it for her, and Ding Yuehua was also by her side.

He had something important to do, Huangfu Nan didn't bother to look at Ding Yuehua, he just thought that this girl was quite good-looking, she always accompanied Chen Ruxue, and from time to time ordered the maid behind her to take good care of Second Aunt, making people feel that she was also a member of the Chen family No violation.Huangfu Nan thought, this girl is also a very friendly person.

When Zhan Zhao asked the same questions, Gongsun Ce also came over.

The steward asked him to bring a basin of warm water for him to wash his hands.

"My housekeeper." Gongsun Ce said to Huang Funan Zhanzhao while washing his hands, "There is nothing unusual about him, he just died of drowning."

Huangfu Nan frowned, and asked: "That evening, who was the last person to see Third Young Master?"

"That evening, my third brother brought me two lotus flowers and left." The speaker was Chen Ruxue, with an accent from the south of the Yangtze River, and Wu Nong spoke softly.

Huangfu Nan looked at her, her eyes were red, and the tip of her nose was also red, it could be seen that she was extremely sad, but because her mother who had experienced the pain of bereavement had already collapsed, she could only hold on and be strong.

"Did he say anything to you?" Huangfu Nan asked.

Chen Ruxue shook his head, "No, he just said that he saw the lotus in the lake blooming very beautifully, with a delicate fragrance, so he personally cut two and sent them to me, saying that even though the summer is hot, smelling the fragrance can make people feel Peace of mind. There was nothing unusual about him that day, but who knows—”

Two tears rolled down her face again, and Chen Ruxue was sobbing uncontrollably.

Huangfu Nan sighed slightly in his heart, and comforted softly: "Third Miss, you cannot be resurrected after death. You still have a mother to take care of you, so you must take care of yourself."

The Buddha said that there are eight sufferings for human beings: parting from life and death, parting from love, resentment and hatred, not getting what you want, and the five shades are blazing.

If there were some words, she didn't know how many times she said it, thinking that she should have been numb, but every time she said it, the sadness in her heart didn't decrease a single bit.

When Huangfu Nan was speaking, Ding Yuehua, who had been beside Chen Ruxue, couldn't help but glance at her.

At this time, Gongsun Ce came over and said, "I want to go to the place where the third young master's body was found."

Huangfu Nan nodded, "I'll go with you."

Seeing this, Zhan Zhao raised his hand and rubbed his temples, "Then I'll go take a look at the third young master's residence." After finishing speaking, he turned to the manager, "I'm here to guide you."

The manager nodded, and Ding Yuehua suddenly said: "Manager, the second girl and I will also go together."

Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked sideways at Ding Yuehua.

Ding Yuehua met his gaze, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "Ru Xue is the younger sister of the third son, no matter what Master Zhan discovers during this trip, she should be the first to know about it."

After hearing the words, Zhan Zhao didn't say anything more.

Huangfu Nan and Gongsun Ce boarded the boat and went to the place where the body of the third son of the Chen family was found.

Before arriving at the destination, Huangfu Nan asked the doubts in her heart all the time, "Gongsun, just now the housekeeper said that the Feng Shui of Chen's residence is not very good, what's going on?"

Gongsun Ce: "The Chen family is in Hangzhou, so it can be regarded as a big family. Half a year ago, the head of the Chen family died of illness. Three months after his death, the third aunt of the Chen family committed suicide by swallowing gold."

"Suicide by swallowing gold? Die for love?"

Gongsun Ce was noncommittal, "That's what the rumor said. After all, San Yiniang was the Patriarch of the Chen Family's favorite person during his lifetime. But one month after her death, the youngest brother of the Patriarch of the Chen Family, Chen Mu, died in a fire."

Huangfu Nan looked at Gongsun Ce, "Fire? Did someone set fire?"

Gongsun Ce shook his head, "It wasn't arson. The people in Chen's house said that it was because Chen Mu used wine to drown his sorrows and got drunk. He accidentally knocked over the candlestick and caused the fire. Because it was late at night, when everyone found out, the fire was already too strong." It was so violent that he couldn't be rescued. Immediately afterwards, the three young masters drowned."

Huangfu Nan was dumbfounded.

Gongsun Ce said: "Actually, the deaths of these few people can all be explained. However, such things happen one after another, which always makes people feel unspeakably weird. No wonder the manager asked whether the Feng Shui of Chen's house was not good." If he is the manager of the Chen Mansion, he will feel like crying.

Seeing that Huang Fu Nan didn't respond for a long time, Gongsun Ce turned to look at her, only to see her shocked expression.He was taken aback for a moment, although whether these people swallowed the golden fire house or fell into the water by mistake, their deaths were always a little inexplicable, but Huangfu Nan always had an attitude towards such things, so such a big reaction He saw it for the first time.

Gongsun Ce asked, "Huangfu, do you think there is something wrong?"

Huangfu Nan nodded, but then shook his head again, "There is nothing wrong with these things, but they are very similar to a story I have read."

Gongsun Ce: "..."
