The Famous Detective of the Red Mansions

Chapter 929: The truth [top]

Lin Mansion.

Lin Zhou, dressed in filial obedience, walked into the foreign study room and saw her husband [Lin Xiuyuan] sitting behind the desk with a tired face, closing his eyes and rubbing his eyebrows.

She kept silent, and picked up the teapot to fill him with tea.

"Get out."

Hearing the movement of pouring tea, Lin Xiuyuan still closed his eyes, but he yelled impatiently, "Didn't you say it, do you want to be quiet?"

"master."

"It's you?"

Lin Zhou called out softly, and Lin Xiuyuan knew that it was her, so he leaned back and sighed quietly: "Hey... let's talk, what's the matter?"

Lin Zhou walked around behind him and rubbed his forehead with ease. After a long while, he whispered: "Even though it was a boy who was investigated yesterday, those women and girls still stayed in the back house. ."

Lin Xiuyuan closed her eyes again when she started massaging the acupuncture points on her head. At this time, she didn't even react at all, as if she had fallen asleep.

Lin Zhou waited for a while, but couldn't get a response from him, so he said to himself: "I see this posture, it seems like we are going to dig out some ugly thing in our house, this..."

"Are there fewer scandals in our family?"

Lin Xiuyuan suddenly interrupted her, but then fell silent again.

Lin Zhou was choked, and it was difficult for him to continue speaking for a while, so he could only massage the acupoints for her husband.

I don't know how long it took before Lin Xiuyuan sighed faintly: "It's easy to ask God to give it away."

Obviously, by now, he has regretted asking Sun Shaozong to investigate the case.

but……

Even if it was replaced by Shuntian Mansion's investigation, wouldn't it be possible that those suspicious points would be left alone and ignored?

So now I can only hope that Sun Shaozong can find out the truth as soon as possible, instead of continuing to dig into the Lin Family's scandal.

"Master, master!"

Just thinking of this, suddenly a young man screamed and rushed in, and found that Lin Zhou was also in the study, and he stopped in a weird manner, and bowed timidly to see him: "Madam."

"What kind of style is this panicking?"

Lin Xiuyuan yelled in an angry voice, and then asked: "But there is another distinguished guest coming to the door, do you need your master to socialize?"

"No!"

The young man shook his head as if he shook his rattle: "It's the Lord Sun, he...he asked him to get dozens of shovels, he is about to dig three feet in our back home!"

Digging three feet?

Obviously searched again and again and found nothing, then Sun Shaozong is so sure, is there a secret way in his own house? !

Lin Xiuyuan suddenly got up, suddenly felt black in front of him, staggering and almost fell back.

"Master, you must be careful!"

Lin Zhou hurriedly supported him, but Lin Xiuyuan eased a little bit, but gently pushed his wife away, and then walked out of the study with a calm face.

All the way to the back house,

I saw dozens of government officials, who had been tossing in full swing, and there were slabs of flagstones, shrubs and flowers dug up everywhere.

But it didn't look messy, and there were piles of neatly organized.

"Out of the forest."

Before Lin Xiuyuan pulled out his attention from the hot construction site, Sun Shaozong took the initiative to find him. First he bowed his hand to the courtesy, and then pointed to a person behind him and introduced: "This is Master Feng Xinfeng, who has been involved in civil engineering for generations. Business-with him, no matter what clues can be dug up, it will definitely return to the original state in the end."

With these words, Lin Xiuyuan asked Lin Xiuyuan's lips and blocked it abruptly.

Since it is guaranteed to be restored intact, what is the point of digging a few paths and some flower beds in order to find out the truth about the murder of his father?

However, in Lin Xiuyuan's heart, there was a faint hunch, it seemed that if this excavation was not stopped as soon as possible, Lin Mansion would encounter even greater disaster!

just……

In what name should we stop this excavation?

Lin Xiuyuan pondered for a long time before finally coming up with a reluctant reason. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly realized that Sun Shaozong's attention was no longer on him, but turned to somewhere obliquely behind.

What is he looking at?

Lin Xiuyuan looked back in surprise, and saw a petite young woman in plain white standing under the arch, staring at this side in a daze.

Is it the widowed daughter-in-law Shen Peilan?

What is she doing here?

And it looks very weird...

Could it be that? !

Lin Xiuyuan's heart was shocked, and he finally understood where his uneasy premonition came from!

For a while, there was panic and resentment, especially thinking of the suspicious passing of his son who was inexplicably ill at the time, and then died.

But this is not the time to calculate the old accounts.

Because once such rebellious things are revealed, then the dead Lin Qisheng, and even the entire Lin family, will fall into the situation that Qianfu pointed out!

"Master Sun!"

Lin Xiuyuan took a deep breath and said categorically, "I am afraid that there is something wrong with this matter. Please also order the princes to stop first. After you and I discuss it, you can decide whether to continue digging!"

At the moment when he saw Shen Peilan appear, Sun Shaozong knew that he had made the right bet, and the truth was about to be revealed, so how could he stop there?

Now I smiled slightly, just waiting to evade some perfunctory words, and suddenly heard someone shout: "Dig, continue digging! Don't stop!"

Sun Shaozong and Lin Xiuyuan followed the prestige at the same time, but saw Shen Peilan staggering to the front, looking at the shallow gully with tearful eyes, as if there was some treasure buried underneath.

That's it!

Lin Xiuyuan slowly closed his eyes and didn't look at his surroundings again.

Sun Shaozong winked at Feng Xin and signaled everyone to speed up the progress.

…………

It was the evening of the day.

A secret road buried four feet deep in the ground was finally exposed to everyone.

At the same time, it was discovered that there was a dead body with blood poisoning from the seven orifices, but a serene body-after careful identification, the deceased was the six children who had been chasing for a long time.

Around Liu'er's body, not only residual poison was found, but also several artifacts that were useful for excavation, as well as dried food residues that had been gnawed.

In the middle of the secret road, there are a lot of traces of excavation.

As for the entrances at both ends of the secret passage, there are tightly sealed seams blocked by mud, and the above is full of traces of tamping with wooden mallets.

Obviously, the reason why Liuer had to pretend to be Lin Qisheng for many days after poisoning Lin Qisheng, risked being discovered, was to make preparations and then block the two sections of the secret passage.

It is also obvious that when he designed this poisonous killing, he didn't want to leave alive!

After half an hour.

The two ends of the secret passage were re-excavated, and the already nailed entrances were located in Lin Qisheng's study and Shen Peilan's bedroom.

"Budget maid!"

Although he had expected it, Lin Xiuyuan couldn't help it at this time, rushed up and struck her daughter-in-law on the face, and said angrily: "You...you dare...you dare..."

But while he was angry, he didn't know how to accuse his daughter-in-law of what he did.

Shen Peilan looked extremely calm.

To be precise, after Liu'er's body was exhumed, there was no one else in her eyes.

At this time, the corners of the beating mouth cracked, but she still stared at Liu'er in a daze, and even stretched out her hand tremblingly, trying to help Liu'er smooth the broken hair on her forehead.

"Budget maid!"

Lin Xiuyuan became more and more irritated. He stopped between the two and angrily rebuked: "It's okay for you to hook up with this dog thief, how can you still dare to harm your grandfather?!"

As he said, he shouted again: "Come here, tie up this shameless and unclean maidservant and take it to the flower hall for interrogation!"

Obviously, at this point, he is still trying to restore Lin Qisheng's reputation-even his son may have died because of it.

But this time Shen Peilan had a reaction~lightnovelpub.net~, raising her neck like a white goose, defended: "No! He never..."

Slap~

Another slap in the face was slapped fiercely, and Lin Xiuyuan shouted with a stern voice: "What are you still doing in a daze?! Hurry up and tie her up for me!"

The family member of the Lin Mansion just woke up like a dream, and he was rushing up from all directions.

There was a manager in it, who obviously guessed Lin Xiuyuan's intentions, and as soon as he came up, he covered Shen Peilan's mouth with a veil.

Lin Xiuyuan just breathed a sigh of relief. Unexpectedly, a tall and burly figure squeezed the crowd away, and silently took off the veil covering his mouth.

"Master Sun, what are you..."

"He has never touched a finger of me! Liu'er... Liuer, he has never touched a finger of me by chance!"

Lin Xiuyuan's roar sounded at the same time as her daughter-in-law's scream, and together with the red clouds on the horizon, they fell into the darkness together.
