Pear EMBER: Ask Jun Where Return

Chapter 6

Later on, under Gu Yan design, he found out that this matter was Mrs. Gu done by Lai Fu. The reason was very simple. Gu Yan was the birth of Manor Lord Gu and a young woman. Manor Lord Gu loved this woman very much, but it was a pity that this woman had Gu Yan difficult to give birth to. Later on, Manor Lord Gu took Gu Yan back to the and loved her very much. Mrs. Gu saw that she was very jealous. She was Sect Master Sword door's younger sister, Jian Lan. She had been spoiled since she was young. In the end, after marrying Manor Lord Gu, she had no choice but to endure her husband's love for others. Now, the son of a slut was almost replacing her son's status. Thus, in order to prevent the most favored Gu Yan from becoming the next Patriarch, she poisoned her young Gu Yan.

Although Gu Yan was not born to Mrs. Gu, she had always respected her like a mother. He never thought that the person he had always respected would actually treat him like this. Hatred and anger naturally formed.

In the main hall, Villa Master Gu was currently in the upper echelon. On the left and right, there was a senior uncle from the Sword Forging Villa. In the center was a female corpse that was completely unrecognizable. The corpse was found in the forest, and there were many wounds on its body. Judging from its appearance, it should be the Mrs. Gu that had come to the temple to pray for blessings a few days ago, Jianlan.

Gu Yan was brought to the main hall by the housekeeper. When he saw his father's heavy face, the four servants kneeling on the ground and the female corpse on the ground, he hurriedly sped up. Seeing Mrs. Gu ruined appearance, he sucked in a breath of cold air, and he couldn' t help but take a few steps back. Fortunately, Mu Xue followed behind him and supported him.

"Mother, didn' t mother go to the White Horse Temple to offer incense? How could she." As he spoke, he coughed in pain. Mu Xue saw this, he immediately helped him to the side and sat down.

"Second Master Gu has just recovered from his illness. Don' t be too excited." As Mu Xue spoke, he patted his back.

Gu Ming was originally immersed in the grief of losing his wife and the anger of the thief who dared to make Sword Forging Villa an enemy. However, his heart ached when he saw his most beloved son's anger worsen his condition. His gaze also became much gentler as he hurriedly asked," Divine Doctor Mu, are Yan alright?"

Mu Xue frowned slightly and said with a troubled expression," You' re injured in a hurry, not to mention that Gu Ershao's body isn' t good to begin with. Even though I' m here to recuperate, it's not appropriate for him to work too hard."

"Since that's the case, Yan you go down and rest." Gu Ming said softly.

"Mother treated me like she's already gone. Now that she's died in such a miserable state, how could I want to be at ease."

Gu Ming saw Gu Yan's expression and felt extremely sad. His eyes were already red, unable to say anything more. It was just that he never thought that this child would have a bad health since he was young, and that he would often be in the Sword Forging Workshop. He would often only hear his wife praise Lan' er for being so concerned about him Yan and would always cause trouble with him. He never thought that he would treat Yan so well in private. He couldn' t help but feel a bit more guilty towards his wife.

"Mrs. Gu corpse is a little strange." When the hall returned to silence, Mu Xue asked, all eyes focused on her. She took two steps forward to take a closer look at Mrs. Gu corpse. Although many of the corpses had been bitten and grazed by wild beasts, she could vaguely see the blade wounds.

"Forgive Mu Xue for being unreasonable. May I ask if Madam has any enemies?"

Ever since Mu Xue saved Gu Yan, Gu Ming had trusted Mu Xue very much. Knowing that there must be a reason for her question, his face sank. He roared at the four kneeling people below," Did you not hear me?"

Chun Hong, Mrs. Gu personal servant, was startled. Her voice was trembling as she said," Madam's temper has always been bad, and we often scold our servants. We' ve already gotten used to these things. However, two days ago, Long Erye brought Miss Mu back to the manor and treated the second young master. Madam was very generous, and directly rushed to the Long Erye sword-casting hut to make a big fuss. She even threw all the weapons that the imperial court ordered into the furnace and destroyed them."

Mu Xue secretly laughed in his heart. This Chunhong was probably Gu Yan arranged. After a few simple words, he turned Mrs. Gu into a woman who had a violent temper and loved to throw a tantrum. Moreover, on the surface, he was very good at Gu Yan, but he was already dissatisfied. Otherwise, he wouldn' t have found Long Erye trouble bringing Mu Xue back.

Sure enough, Villa Master Gu, who had felt a bit guilty before, had now turned quite dark. Long Er, who was standing by the side, could not help but say a few more words.

"Big brother, you all know what kind of conduct we, Long Er, are you going to kill sister-in-law for such a small matter?"

After having known each other for several decades, Villa Master Gu was very familiar with Long Er. Although he was bold and bold, he was warm-hearted. He believed that he would quarrel with his wife on the spot, and it was impossible for him to kill. He then asked," Is there anyone else?"

"This..." Chun Hong seemed rather troubled. From time to time, she would secretly glance at the Zhao Siye sitting next to Gu Yan with an extremely ugly expression. "I' m asking you something. Why are you stuttering?" Seeing Chun Hong being so embarrassed, Villa Master Gu's anger increased a little.

"Villa Master." One of the kneeling servants stammered," A few days ago, I saw my wife and Zhao Siye at the back mountain. I really want to have a bit of an argument."

Gu Ming's expression became even worse. Normally, it would be fine if he allowed her to stay at home. He didn' t expect her to be arrogant and despotic, causing trouble everywhere. Even though he felt that he had taken too much care of Yan, neglected their mother and son, and owed her a bit, he didn' t expect that she would have wanted to harm Yan a long time ago. She had blatantly blamed Long Er for inviting Mu Xue to treat his illness. He didn' t know what was going on with his fourth brother.

"This blade is a bit special." Mu Xue pointed at one of the wounds." This wound looks like an ordinary one. In fact, there are many serrations on the blade. As a result, many li of the flesh will be taken out from each strike. Presumably, the reason why the murderer threw Madam's corpse into the forest and was eaten by a wild beast was to cover up this wound."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Zhao Si fiercely patted the square table beside him. His eyes were filled with fierce light as he looked at the Mu Xue. The servants who were kneeling before him collapsed to the ground in shock.

Mu Xue's eyes were filled with laughter. He couldn' t hold back his anger so quickly, but he hadn' t even come out yet.

Li San Niang walked forward with a smile, inadvertently protecting Jia Ding behind him." Oh, fourth brother, Miss Mu only said it according to what you saw."

Zhao Si coldly snorted and suppressed his anger. He glared at Mu Xue. Mu Xue pretended to be puzzled and looked at Li San Niang in confusion. Sanniang said in a gentle voice," Miss Mu might not know. The blade my fourth brother used is different from ordinary blades. It's made of serrated teeth."

"Third Mother."

Long Er wanted to stop Li San Niang, but Li San Niang completely ignored him. She pulled up Chun Hong, the servant girl who had been shivering and peeking at Zhao Si. She gently patted her hand and said," Don' t be afraid. Third Mother is covering you. Say what you want to say."

Chun Hong didn' t dare say a word, only shaking her head.

"Speak!" All of the people present were members of the Lian family. Chun Hong's dodging and dodging manner had always been seen by them. The Gu Ming who originally didn' t believe that his fourth brother would kill him also began to feel suspicious and could not help but increase his voice.

With these words, Chun Hong was so scared that she knelt down again. Her panicked appearance was even more suspicious. Gu Yan's face was pale. He coughed lightly and said in a somewhat astringent voice," You' ve been with your mother since childhood. Now that she's gone so badly, what else can you not say?"

Chun Hong immediately began to cry. She kowtowed several times and stood up to point at Zhao Si and said," It's him. It's Zhao Siye that he killed Madam."

In the blink of an eye, Zhao Si had already stepped forward and prepared to strike at Chun Hong with a palm strike. However, Li San Niang stood by the side, pulling Chun Hong back and forcefully receiving her palm strike. The two of them didn' t have the advantage of fighting head-on. Zhao Si was affected by the Li San Niang palm wind, so he took a few steps back. However, Li San Niang couldn' t withstand Zhao Si's strength and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Long Er hurriedly stepped forward to support Li San Niang and rebuked," Fourth Bro, what are you doing?"

Li San Niang snorted and laughed mockingly," There's no need to ask. Kill and silence me."

Chun Hong crawled up to Gu Ming, grabbing the corner of her clothes and crying," Villa Master, save me, save me."

At this moment, Gu Ming was already extremely angry. No matter how much he didn't like this lady, he could n' t bear the face of his wife dying so miserably. Not to mention that this murderer might very well be his brother. Wasn' t this a slap to his face. Gu Ming palm struck down, and the small table on the side fell to the ground." Tell me everything you know. I' ll see who dares to act impudent here."

After receiving the order from the Gu Ming, Chun Hong began to cry," Ever since the second young master was born, Madam's temper has become more and more violent. She often vented her anger on us servants. Later, I didn' t know where Madam heard that she could give people chronic poison. If it wasn' t common, many doctors wouldn' t be able to diagnose the cause. After a long time, everyone would think that she was sick and that there was no need to die. Coincidentally Zhao Siye there was a problem with the sword that had been provided to Sword door earlier. Later on, he discovered that Fourth Master was in debt, so he cut corners. The madame used this to threaten him, causing the Fourth Master to find the Poison Hundred Souls Powder. However, he didn' t expect that after waiting for the second young master's death with great difficulty, Miss Mu would come and easily cure this poison. The madame was furious, so she reprimanded Fourth Master. She even said that it was Fourth Master's so-called telling the Manor Lord that the two of them had been arguing for a long time at the back mountain. Originally, I thought that this matter would be settled like this. However, I did not expect that my wife would disappear from the White Horse Temple. However, I clearly saw Fourth Master near the White Horse Temple that day. "It's not right for me to think about it after Madam's disappearance. Thus, I went to ask Fourth Master, but Fourth Master told me to shut up. If I didn' t shut up, I would kill him. That's why I didn' t dare to say anything, Villa Master."
