Chapter 287 287. The person behind the scenes?
Qu Shaojing had suspected that someone was watching outside Wu'an Hou's house, but he did not expect that the boy in his own yard was bribed to leak the news of his leaving the house, which gave the people behind the scenes an opportunity to take advantage of him. .
"It's unreasonable to eat everything inside and outside! Did I treat him badly?!"
"..."
The guard stood aside and silently acted like a fool.
It's nothing more than money and silk that moves people's hearts.
After losing his temper, the anger in Qu Shaojing's heart gradually subsided.
"Where's that boy? Is he ready?"
"Back to the young marquis, Qu An hanged himself this morning."
"..."
He hanged himself, maybe he was silenced?
When Qu Shaojing heard the news, instead of getting angry, he calmed down.
He is not a dandy who doesn't understand anything. He understands what it means when something goes wrong as soon as the front foot is checked.
This shows that the people behind the scenes know the Wu'anhou Mansion very well and can be one step ahead of him.
The truth is far more serious than he imagined.
"Are you from the mansion..."
Brother Shen's guess is not unreasonable. If he just wants to destroy the marriage between the Wu'an Marquis Mansion and the Jiang family, it may be possible both inside and outside the mansion, but if that person really wants to What about his life that he would not hesitate to kill Yao'er?
"Qu Lian."
"My subordinates are here."
"Go and find out what the female family members in the mansion have been doing recently, and who the other two young masters and the third young master have been in contact with recently. , let me check it out clearly.”
Qu Lian was stunned for a moment, then his expression became solemn.
"Yes."
The small courtyard returned to calm again. Qu Shaojing sat at the desk in silence for a long time, and finally looked at the sunset outside the window and sighed. As the day for the results of the National Examination is approaching, Beijing is once again bustling with activity.
Students can be seen on the street every day. In restaurants and teahouses, there are people reciting poems and writing poems, and gradually a few scholars have made a name for themselves.
Shen Xingluo was dragged out by Qin Zheng a few times to chat and exchange experiences with his classmates in Lin'an Mansion, but most of the time he stayed at home on the pretext of reading books.
"Is this what you call a warm book?"
Cheng Xi sat beside Shen Xingluo, looking at the "Twenty-Four Histories" in his hand with a half-smile.
“The history books of Madam’s world are very interesting.”
He put down the simplified version of the book and raised his eyes to the person beside him, “Didn’t you go out to play with Miss Qu and Jiang today? ”
"All the interesting shops in the capital have been visited. The teahouses and restaurants are occupied by you scholars. There is nothing new."
In fact, Cheng Xi and Shen Xingqi have not been idle these days. The two girls have become friends who talk about everything, but because the person behind the scenes has not been found out, they are afraid that they will be assassinated again, which reduces the frequency of going out.
“Speaking of which, what is the situation in Wu’anhou Mansion?”
Cheng Xi was naturally asking about his past life.
She knew too few clues in this life and did not have enough information to summarize. It was difficult to draw a correct conclusion. However, it was different for Shen Xingluo, who had already lived once.
What a perfect God’s perspective!
“Tell me, if we hadn’t rescued him, Qu Shaojing would have been in bad luck, right?”
The assassin in black showed no mercy at all.
"Madam is smart."
"..." These four words have been gone for a long time.
"Wait, don't say anything yet, let me guess."
Cheng Xi held her white chin in both hands and opened her mind, "Looking at my experience of watching countless bloody TV series, no Could it be something done by Marquis Wu An himself? Is it an aunt in the family? I remember that Qu Shaojing also has two concubine brothers.”
