Mingshi

Chapter 973 Investigation
Embarrassment appeared on Liu Shouyou's face, and he boasted in front of Luo Xin, but he was slapped hard, which made him feel uncomfortable.

"That's why I asked Lu Yi to gather all the people in the mansion."

Luo Xin's eyes flashed and he said, "Do you think the Eighth Aunt was killed by someone from the Lu family?"

Liu Shou nodded confidently and said, "It must be. No one can avoid the eyes of our Jin Yiwei, come in calmly, and leave calmly after killing the eighth concubine. Only people in Lu's mansion can avoid our eyes and ears. After all, this is the Governor's Mansion, we can't send people in. We can only monitor outside the mansion."

After thinking about it, Luo Xin decided to choose to trust Liu Shouyou.He still has trust in Jin Yiwei. This group of people are experts, and they should not allow people to enter and leave Lu's residence at will to kill people without realizing it.

Soon, people from Lu Mansion were gathered together, more than 700 people.Liu Shouyou and Luo Xin sat in Lu Bing's original study, asking questions about Lu Bing's family members one by one.The servants of the Lu Mansion were interrogated one by one by Jin Yiwei.

This interrogation lasted for more than two hours, and he bumped into the Jin Yiwei outside, but found no clues. This time, Liu Shouyou became a little anxious.Luo Xin frowned, leaned into Liu Shouyou's ear and said:
"Have we forgotten someone?"

"Who?"

"Fourth aunt!"

Liu Shouyou was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly slapped his thigh, looked at Lu Yi and said:

"Where's the fourth aunt? Why haven't you seen the fourth aunt?"

Lu Yi was taken aback and said, "Didn't you see it?"

Seeing Lu Yi's confused appearance, Luo Xin and Liu Shouyou didn't blame him.The Lu Mansion was already in chaos these days, but now that a murder case happened suddenly, it naturally became even more chaotic.It's normal to not notice the fourth aunt.Didn't even Luo Xin and Liu Shou notice it?

"I didn't see it!" Liu Shouyou said while flipping through the records in front of him, "There is no record of the Fourth Aunt here."

"I'll go find her."

Lu Yi left in a hurry, and came back in a hurry, with a pale face, and said: "The fourth aunt is gone."

"Disappeared?" Luo Xin and Liu Shouyou asked almost in unison, and serious expressions appeared on their faces.

"Yes, it's gone." Lu Yi's face showed unnaturalness.

"Take us there!" Liu Shouyou said immediately.

Lu Yi didn't say a word, turned around and walked towards the backyard with Liu Shouyou and Luo Xin. They came to a small independent courtyard and walked straight into a room. Liu Shouyou first stood at the door and didn't go in. The sharp eyes scanned all around, and it took a full ten breaths before slowly walking into the room.

Liu Shouyou began to check in the room, not missing a single place.Luo Xin didn't go in, but just stood at the door, following Liu Shou's eyes.

The door of the cupboard was opened, and there were pieces of clothes neatly placed inside, as if the owner had just gone out for a while and would be back soon.One by one, the cabinet doors and drawers were opened, and some things inside, daily necessities, and cosmetics were neatly placed. From this, it can be seen that the owner of this house is a rigorous person.

While watching Liu Shouyou search for clues, Luo Xin said to Lu Yi beside him:

"Have you looked for Fourth Aunt?"

"Not yet! I'll let someone find it."

At this time, Liu Shouyou got under the bed again, and found a hidden compartment. He found a small box from inside, opened the small box, and Lu Yi, who was standing at the door, had red eyes and raised his voice a few times. Lane:
"This is a family heirloom of our Lu family."

Luo Xin looked inside the small box, but it was a white jade tiger, the size of a palm, carved vividly, with tiger stripes on its body, just like a white tiger.

Liu Shouyou's face did not change at all. He put the small box on the bed, stood there thinking for a while, and then started to search again. This time he knocked on the walls, the floor, and even the The ceiling was not spared either.

And at this moment, the butler of the Lu Mansion came in from the Moon Gate, came behind Lu Yi and said:
"Eldest son, the fourth aunt was not found."

"Look again." Lu Yi said angrily.

"slow!"

The butler was about to turn around and leave, but was called out by Liu Shouyou from inside the room, walked out, looked at the butler and said:
"When was the last time you saw Aunt Four and Aunt Eight?"

The butler had obviously investigated the matter, heard the words without pause, and said:
"I didn't see the fourth aunt and eighth aunt this morning."

Liu Shouyou said in a concentrated voice, "Why haven't you found out?"

Embarrassment appeared on the faces of Lu Yi and the butler. Liu Shouyou and Luo Xin looked at each other and understood the reason.

Lu Bing had a high status and a romantic nature. He married fifteen concubines in total. These concubines were not the real mothers of Lu Yi and Lu Lun, and in Daming, concubines really had no status.It's good that Lu Bing is alive, Lu Yi and Lu Lun have more or less respect for Eighth Aunt and Fourth Aunt, at least on the surface.But once Lu Bing died, his concubines became rootless weeds.Not only did Lu Lun and Lu Yi no longer talk to them, but some servants in the mansion no longer respected them as before.So, when the two of them didn't show up, no one noticed them.

Of course, this is also because the current Lu Mansion is indeed too chaotic. After Lu Bing's funeral and the Lu Mansion's reshuffle, this kind of thing will naturally not happen.

The reason why Auntie Eight was discovered was because Aunt Nine had a very good relationship with her. During the wake-up in the morning, she didn't see Auntie Eight. At noon, she hurried to Mrs. Aunt Eight's room and found Auntie Eight Tai died on the ground, and that scream was made by Aunt Jiu.

"Where are the maids of the fourth concubine and the eighth concubine?"

Luo Xin suddenly asked, he felt that this matter was very abnormal, even if the Lu residence was in chaos now, no one paid attention to Lu Bing's concubines, but the two concubines, one died and the other disappeared, their maids would always be there. Maybe you didn't notice it at all?
The last time, it's impossible to discover it with others, right?Why should it be discovered a little earlier?That's the master!
Lu Yi looked at the butler, and the butler's face became pale, and he hesitated a bit.

"Say!" Lu Yi yelled loudly.

"The manor was too busy, so they transferred the maids of the aunts and wives." The housekeeper lowered his head and said.

Lu Yi's expression eased. In his opinion, this matter is normal.My father died, such a big event, of course the mansion has to be busy, and there is not enough manpower, so it is normal to transfer the concubine's maid.
