"yes!"

Jin Xincheng met the old lady's gaze and did not avoid it as usual.?

The old lady smiled coldly in her heart, it turns out that this second child is the one with the most scheming intentions!

Over the years, he has pretended to be so good in front of her and acted so well, but she didn't realize that he was such a powerful character.

There was silence all around, everyone listened attentively.

Everyone knows that the old lady values ​​​​Jin Xinpeng, and they all think that the position of the head of the family is likely to be the fourth child of the second bedroom, but they did not expect...

Everyone watched calmly. The messier the second room is, the more opportunities they have.

"Where's the key?"

The old lady asked in front of everyone, and everyone pricked up their ears.

"Go back to Madam, Xin Cheng knows the importance of the key and has kept it properly. Madam, please rest assured!" Jin Xincheng pretended to be confused and replied seriously.

"..."

Everyone in the Jin family looked at each other in confusion. The second lady, dressed in white, stood in the crowd and was very excited. She wanted to rush up and ask what happened, but the situation was inappropriate and she could only endure it.

"Then...just keep it for now! Go change into mourning clothes." The old lady tried her best to restrain her emotions and turned towards the spiritual house.

Jin Xincheng turned around to change his clothes. He saw the cold light flashing in the old lady's eyes. From the moment he agreed to meet Chuxue on behalf of his eldest brother, ever since he decided to take her back, here...he had already prepared to face the old lady.

Even though he had no chance of winning, he didn't want to be as timid and cowardly as before for the rest of his life.

The old lady went all the way into the back room, as if she was immersed in the grief of losing her son, and didn't have much reaction to what just happened.

"Everyone, please go down. The old lady wants to spend some time with the master quietly."

After the servants dispersed, Xin Gu quickly looked around and whispered: "Old madam, what should I do?"

The old lady stood in front of the bed and looked at Jin Xincheng, who was motionless and lifeless on the bed. She said with a serious look on her face: "When did he start to doubt me...I didn't even notice it at all. I really underestimated the two brothers.

Under my nose, I have hidden the key to the Eight Treasures Pagoda for so many years..."

Xin Gu also had a serious look on her face, "Old madam, do you think the clan order is also in his hands? Maybe the head of the family didn't give it to the eldest lady at all!"

It's not impossible, "Aunt Xin, it seems... some things are beyond our control. Nothing can go wrong anymore. Now we must turn from passive to active... The head of the family is on guard against me but doesn't do anything openly, which means it's just suspicion.

There is no conclusive evidence... Instead of letting them investigate Uncle Hua's matter, it is better for us to do it ourselves. My husband died unexpectedly, and I, the old lady of the Jin family, should have some movement... You can arrange this matter, and Uncle Hua... I will write a letter.

Send a personal letter."

"...Now that I know this, what will the second master...what does the old lady plan to do?"

The old lady has been looking for the key to the Eight Treasures Pagoda for so many years, but she didn't expect it to be right under her nose. Now that she knows who holds it, she must find a way to get it.

The old lady glanced at the person on the bed again and then slowly turned around.

"He said in public that the key is with him, but we can't force it because we know it's on him and we can't escape... I'll think about it carefully. People will come to pay homage one after another tomorrow. There are so many people with mixed eyes, so bear with it for now.

.”

The old lady said so, so Xin Gu had to endure it for the time being.

The head of the Jin family passed away, and the atmosphere in Jinghe City was completely different. When Chuxue returned to the inn, she saw white flags hanging at the door of the inn.

"Miss, you are finally back. I heard that the head of the Jin family is dead..."

Tao'er couldn't wait to speak as soon as she saw Chuxue. She stared at Chuxue and looked up and down. She felt relieved when she saw that the person was fine.

"I know, is sir in the house?"

Tao'er nodded quickly, "The two gentlemen are waiting for the lady."

Chuxue strode towards Souhe's room.

"Sir, Daddy Li."

Made them worried.

"Xue girl is back, come and sit down." Dong Li waved quickly when he saw Chu Xue, this girl is back.

Chuxue came forward and did not sit down. Instead, she knelt down towards the old man and said, "Sir, the student wants to ask you something."

Souhe looked at Chuxue with a complicated expression.

"Get up and talk."

Chu Xue did not move. Sou He pinched his beard with a look of helplessness and said, "Do you want to inquire about the death of the last head of the Jin family?"

Chuxue pursed her lips and nodded, "The student... is in trouble, sir."

"You just came out of Jin's house?"

"Yes! Sir, the biological mother of the student... is Concubine Yu!"

Since she wants to ask her husband about the Jin family, Chu Xue can no longer hide her identity, otherwise her husband will be very embarrassed. In fact, with their intelligence, they should be able to guess some clues, but they have never

Asked.

Sohe and Dongli looked at each other. Just as Chuxue thought, they had indeed guessed something, but they didn't say it clearly.

But hearing Chuxue say it herself, I couldn't help but feel emotional.

"Get up, come and sit."

Souhe sighed and let Chuxue wake up. She was obviously born into a noble family, but she became an orphan.

Chuxue then stood up and sat down, and Taoer cautiously retreated outside the door to watch.

"...Girl, tell me first, why do you want to inquire about this matter?" She is really the daughter of that girl Na Xinyu, she is the granddaughter of Brother Tianming. This is also a rare fate.

Chuxue did not hide anything and told the truth, "Sir, I want to know who killed...my grandfather back then."

Chuxue didn't intend to say anything else. She didn't want to involve her husband in the Jin family's grievances, and there was no need.

Sohe looked at Chuxue for a long time, and finally nodded, "If you want to know anything, just ask."

"Sir, I want to know...what kind of poison my grandfather was poisoned with." This poison must be very special, otherwise, it would be impossible for Sir to check it out for so many years.

"Fusheng! A kind of poison called Fusheng, produced in Ruan Dong!"

"Floating life?!"

Chu Xue had not yet responded. Dong Li looked at Sou He in surprise and asked, "Sir, how many times have you been to Ruan Dong and back in the past few years? Is this the reason for this?"

The old man nodded lightly, "As long as I am alive, I will definitely investigate the matter of being a loyal person entrusted by others. I will definitely live up to my mission. I will investigate it clearly, but it has been delayed for too long..."

"Ruan Dong?" Chuxue didn't know what Fusheng Poison was, but... this poison came from Ruan Dong... Isn't Ruan Dong the homeland of Daddy Li?

"Unexpectedly, someone used Fu Sheng in Dayuan. No wonder sir, after so many years of investigation, the head of the Jin family actually died of Fu Sheng's poison..."

Taking the initiative to use Fusheng Poison on the Jin family, no matter who this person is, he has something to do with Ruan Dong. This Fusheng Poison is the secret poison of Ruan Dong Palace. Thinking of this, Dongli couldn't help but frown. This matter

I'm afraid things are more complicated than he thought.

Seeing Dong Li's expression, Chu Xue knew that the poison was unusual without asking, "Daddy Li also knows about this poison?"

"Fusheng is the secret poison of Ruandong Palace, girl, this matter is not that simple, you can't be reckless." Dongli said to Chuxue seriously.

The secret poison in the Ruan Dong Palace!! In other words, the person who killed the Jin family head was most likely from Ruan Dong, and was related to the Ruan Dong royal family or the Ruan Dong Palace? No matter how ignorant Chuxue is, she still knows the secrets in the palace

Things, especially such obscure things, don't get lost easily.

"Don't worry, Dad Li, Chuxue won't be reckless. Sir, how much do you know about what happened back then?"

She originally had no intention of getting involved in the Jin family's affairs, but now that things have come to a point, she can't ignore them.

"It's a long story..."
