Chapter 123 Dead
"Shi Tou? Liu Qiuqiu! In terms of viciousness, I am not even one ten-thousandth as you! Ask yourself, whose children do these two evil creatures belong to?" Lu Yunqing asked at the top of her voice, which immediately attracted a lot of speculation.
You know, Liu Qiuqiu entered the Lu Mansion with the help of her two children and her four-month pregnant belly in order to make Su He give up on the idea of divorce. Is there any truth in this?
Liu Qiuqiu looked unhappy: "What nonsense are you talking about! Do you want to make your brother lose face?"
"You are shameless, so let's all be shameless!" Lu Yunqing threw the burning torch towards Liu Qiuqiu. Sparks splashed on Lu Yi's body, causing him to run around.
"I want everyone to know that it was you, Liu Qiuqiu, who had always coaxed my brother around. In fact, these two bastards are not..."
The shrill accusation came to an abrupt end. Lu Yunqing was hit by a dart and fell to the ground, soon dying.
The scorching flames around her made her face appear scorching hot, giving her an eerie look of death.
Liu Qiuqiu's heart finally sank from her throat, she knew that it was her brother who was secretly helping her.
Lu Yunqing, this brainless fool, was tricked by her into bringing Su He's dowry to use on Yi'er and Jiao'er before she got married, and now she wants to follow her old ways and get married while pregnant? It's a pity that Li Qi has Chen behind him who is in charge of the whole mansion, otherwise, it wouldn't be so difficult for him to survive.
As soon as the dart appeared, Qingyun immediately followed the sound to catch the murderer. He chased him through two villages before finally catching him.
When the murderer was brought back, Su He looked at him with narrowed eyes and smiled: "Long time no see?"
Liu Jinglei, dressed in black, was kneeling on the ground, with Qingyun holding him on his back, unable to move. He looked at her with resentment in his eyes.
Baili Jun glanced at the pale-faced Liu Qiuqiu, then turned to Su He and asked, "Do you know him?"
"If we talk about knowing each other, I'm afraid Aunt Liu is more familiar with the murderer, right?"
She stared at Liu Qiuqiu closely, and could see the panic in her expression, but she still had to block the child in front of her, pretending not to understand: "What are you talking about, Madam Lu? Just because you know the murderer, does that mean I must know the murderer? Where does this make sense? I have never heard of it before."
As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Qiuqiu fell to her knees in front of Baili Jun with a plop, her voice was filled with sorrow: "I know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is sending people to arrest me, but I have never thought of running away. I have a pair of elderly parents at home. If I leave, there will be no one to take care of them. I am afraid they will not live long! Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I thank you for saving me today. If you want to capture or kill me, just tie me up, and I will have no complaints!"
Liu Qiuqiu knew all the news about the Lu Mansion. After Lu Yi and Lu Jiao were taken away by Lu Yunqing, she had been thinking of a solution. However, after thinking about it, she didn't know who to ask for help. The only option was to walk into the trap herself, so she asked someone to use his connections to go to the East Palace to ask for an audience with the prince.
Baili Juan was not distracted by her words and asked again: "I'll ask again, do you know the murderer?"
Liu Qiuqiu secretly glanced at Liu Jinglei, shrank back and dared not answer.
Even though Lu Yunqing had no value, she was still a life after all. How could she be stabbed to death in front of so many people without any result?
"Public women..."
She hesitated.
Seeing that she was hesitant and unable to speak for a long time, Su He simply acted like a good person and raised his eyebrows and said, "Since he is your biological brother, what's wrong with admitting it? Is it not presentable? Oh, that's right. After all, Aunt Liu was in the open, and your brother was behind. How many bad things did you do openly and secretly? If you think about it carefully, it's really not presentable."
"You slandered me!"
Liu Qiuqiu looked up and rebuked, tears streaming down her face before she could say anything.
It is no exaggeration to say that even though she has given birth to three children, her figure has not changed at all. Especially her face, with tears drooping slightly, I feel pity for her.
"What did they slander you about? Isn't Liu Jinglei your brother? Didn't you do anything disgusting? Aren't you wanted?"
In order to protect the descendants of the Lu family, Mrs. Liu did everything she could, and Liu Qiuqiu had no choice but to abandon her.
"I……"
"Qiqi! Why are you afraid of that bitch? You are much more noble than her, why don't you tell us the children's life stories?" Liu Jinglei couldn't help but scold. When Yin Wu's eyes swept towards Su He, they were terrifying.
Su He pretended to be surprised: "Background? So, these two children are not Lu Yanxiu's biological children?"
Liu Qiuqiu's nails dug into his flesh, and he had no time to refute. Li Qi had already put out the fire, and was preparing to transport Lu Yunqing's body back. He quickly came to Baili Jun and stared at Liu Jinglei with anger and regret: "This man is ruthless and killed Yunqing with one move. It's really cruel. Please, Your Highness, give me an explanation!"
Baili Juan couldn't pretend not to see what was happening right under his nose.
He helped Li Qi up and assured him, "General Li has won glory for the country. I will definitely seek justice for you!"
"Thank you, Prince..."
Baili Jun ordered his subordinates on both sides to take Liu Jinglei and Liu Qiuqiu back for interrogation. Lu Yunqing was dead, and Lu Yi and Lu Jiao were also within the scope of interrogation.
Liu and Lu Zhili arrived late just after the people were taken away. Seeing the mess in Xiuyue Manor and learning that Lu Yunqing had an accident, the old man's eyes turned red, and he grabbed Li Qi's clothes and asked how to arrange the funeral.
Li Qi thought of Lu Yunqing's recent experience of losing her son and her life, and felt that he owed her something, so he assured Liu: "I will make sure that the funeral is properly arranged and give Yunqing the last bit of dignity."
Liu's lips moved slightly, as if she wanted to say something but stopped. Seeing this, Zhao Liuyun deliberately added, "Yun Qing gave birth to a child for the Li family. She didn't do any credit but she worked hard. The Li family will naturally compensate her. When the time comes, you must ask the old lady to come forward and accept it."
When a person dies, the compensation money naturally falls into the hands of the living.
After getting the affirmation, Liu did not continue to make a fuss. After a quick look, she got on the carriage and went back.
"Someone died, not ran away. Why are the Lu family members so indifferent?" Qi Sheng had never seen such cold-blooded family members. Those two children were also the blood of the Lu family. Why didn't the old lady even ask about them?
Su He said calmly: "A tree seeks its skin, and a man seeks himself."
She turned around and called Pei Xia: "Let's go back."
"Mrs. Lu, wait a moment."
Outside Xiuyue Manor, Baili Jun was sitting in the carriage and was reluctant to start the carriage. When he saw Su He and others coming out, he sent someone to stop them.
"What does Mrs. Lu think about Lu Yanxiu's imprisonment?"
Baili Jun's gaze through the car window stayed on Su He, waiting for her answer.
After all, if he hadn't been looking for something for Su He that day, he wouldn't have found that cursed object by accident.
But was it a mistake or was it intentional? Only she could explain it clearly.
