Chapter 297: Return (3)
As soon as Fu Guanzhang walked out of Songshouyuan, he met Xu Zhilan and Fu Yingwu head-on.
Fu Yingwu responded the fastest, rushed forward in small steps and said, "Fifth brother, what do grandmother and my father say? Have they agreed to help Sister Yu?"
"Look at you, you are fourteen years old, still like a child." Fu Guanzhang reached out and gently pushed her, his face full of care, but his eyes fell on Xu Zhilan.
These days, she was feeling uncomfortable and stayed in the boudoir and did not leave the house. Her face looked much rosy at this time, and she must be in a good mood.
Xu Zhilan was in a very beautiful mood today. She originally wanted to catch Lan Yi and interrogate her identity. If she was really a member of Xiang's family, she would not keep her. But she never expected that the little fish would not enter the net, but the big fish would sneak in by herself.
The murder case that was originally prepared for Lan Yi has now become a prop to destroy Chu Xinyu. How could she be unhappy? This time, Chu Xinyu admitted that Lan Yi was instructed by her and no one forced her to confess.
Concubine Qi reported to her and successfully stopped the emperor. Concubine Kang had no chance to mention Chu Xinyu's affairs to the emperor today. As long as the emperor did not interfere in the matter, with the complete evidence, Chu Xinyu instigated the maid to kill someone. Of course, her maid no longer had the chance to come out to prove her innocence.
Because she had sent someone to intercept the girl, don't think that she would leave quietly through the back door, so no one would appear. She had sent someone to wait at the back door long ago because she was afraid that Chu Xinyu would send someone away secretly.
This time she will not show mercy. Whether Lan Yi is a member of the Xiang family or not, she has issued a killing order.
Although Zheng Shangshu from the Ministry of Justice was not a member of King Jin, he was in trouble now and did not care about Chu Xinyu's affairs. The only ones who could help her were Duke Rong's Mansion and Duke E's Mansion.
Based on her experience of interacting with the eldest princess over the years, the eldest princess is gentle and kind on the surface, but has a very small mind. She will always like what she likes, but it is difficult for her to change what she doesn't like.
Chu Xinyu entered the dungeon of the Ministry of Justice, so that the eldest princess could see clearly that a person who only causes trouble was not suitable to stand beside Lin Chenyao. Even if the two get married in the future, the eldest princess would not have a good face to her. Of course, it is best to use this matter to make their wedding unable to continue.
Besides, Duke Rong cherishes his face. Chu Xinyu committed a big taboo in the Lin family this time. Maybe it was the old lady who would help her because Chu Xinyu was a member of the Lin family, but she was a woman after all.
Gu Si's murder case is related to the danger of the people in Jinjing. If Chu Xinyu had no evidence of Lan Yi's murder, she would have convicted this charge!
As for Lan Yi, it is probably that she has been hunted down now. The person she sent out is her secret guard, which is different from Tao Xin. If she had no choice, she would not use him. With his skills, it would be very simple to kill Lan Yi, so she was not worried that Lan Yi would come back at all.
The Fu family may have returned the favor to Chu Xinyu because she saved her grandmother last time, but it is too late. Now Chu Xinyu has been arraigned. When she comes out, she is afraid that the Lin family will not want the woman who is already disabled and disabled.
Of course, they were afraid that people would gossip. Even if they married Chu Xinyu, they would probably not have a good life in the future.
Besides, she did not allow the Fu family to help Chu Xinyu. As long as today passed, Chu Xinyu would be too late even if someone helped her.
"Fifth Brother, you haven't answered me yet. Did my grandmother and father agree to help Sister Yu?" Fu Yingwu pulled Fu Guanzhang's hand down and swayed like a coquettish act.
Fu Guanzhang smiled and replied, "Don't worry about adults' affairs, children should not worry about them. Go back to the room and learn more embroidery, or learn painting from your second sister."
"You know I have always been uninterested in embroidery and painting. I still like to learn martial arts. It's better for you to teach me." At this point, Fu Yingwu realized that she was distracted by the fifth brother, and immediately pouted and said, "Fifth brother, you are so bad!"
Fu Guanzhang said, "If you like to learn martial arts, I will let Zhongting teach you." Zhongting is the son of the Fu family's chief manager and is also his accompanying school. He is one year younger than him, but martial arts is not inferior to him.
Fu Yingwu curled her lips disgusted, "I don't want him to teach you. His face is so ugly and his movements are rude."
But she always remembered Chu Xinyu's incident in her heart, so after saying this, she immediately turned the topic back, "Fifth Brother, you haven't answered my question yet."
"Grandma asked me to investigate and go now, so you can feel at ease."
"Then you must find out clearly and make Sister Yu clear of her innocence."
"Okay." Fu Guanzhang smiled, then looked up at Xu Zhilan, and said with concern as usual: "Your body is just right, and the wind is strong here, why are you wearing so little?"
As he said that, he frowned at Xue Liu beside her, and said in a stern tone: "You don't bring too much jacket when she comes out? It's not far from the date of the wedding. What if your girl gets sick again?"
Xue Liu was scolded with a confused look on her face. What happened to the fifth young master today? Even if he didn't do it right before, he would tell him very kindly that he would never scold himself as seriously as he is today! He thought about it. Maybe he was in a bad mood today. In order not to let him criticize him, he immediately replied: "Fifth young master, I will go back and get the girl's coat immediately."
After saying that, Xue Liu was about to leave, and then turned around, she was stopped by Xu Zhilan's voice, "Wait."
Xu Zhilan said to Fu Guanzhang: "Brother, I have something I want to tell you."
"What's the matter?"
"that is"
Xu Zhilan was about to say something, but her voice stopped abruptly. She covered her chest with her hands and had difficulty breathing. Seeing this, Fu Guanzhang immediately realized that her asthma was getting again.
She had a problem once when she came back. The doctor said that her symptoms were caused by falling into the water and choking her lungs with water. They needed to be treated slowly. Even if they get better in the future, they should not be too emotional. The surrounding environment should keep the air fresh. Otherwise, once they breathe too hard or the air is turbid, they will be unable to breathe.
But she just wanted to tell him something, was it necessary to be excited? Moreover, since she knew she had this disease, her grandmother ordered her to keep it clean, regardless of the garden, corridor, canal, pond, or every hidden corner of the mansion, and the air was circulating. Her asthma had not been done for a long time, but now
Fu Guanzhang was not stupid and soon realized that she didn't want to go out by herself and pretended to be sick. If it were the case, he would definitely be panicked and had only her affairs in his heart, but now, his heart only felt cold and angry.
The more she did this, the more she exposed her true identity and purpose, she didn't want to save Chu Xinyu by herself. She wanted Chu Xinyu to die. Why? What kind of holiday did she have with Chu Xinyu? Was it just because of Lan Yi's girl who ruined her? Or was it because of the third brother?
Even though he was angry, Fu Guanzhang quickly calmed down and responded, sending her back in person, and instructing Xueliu to find the doctor, but before leaving, he winked at the shadow guard in the dark.
The Shadow Guard immediately understood and turned around and left.
Things were so fast that Fu Yingwu hadn't reacted yet. She was the only one left in the corridor with her maid, but Fu Yinghua was her cousin. She couldn't just care about others but not her. Therefore, she could only put Chu Xinyu's affairs aside and see how her cousin first.
