Distressed wife

Chapter 699 Hou Yiyi died of poisoning (2)
In a blink of an eye, two days passed, and Hou Yiyi's health improved a lot, Madam Hou felt better after seeing this.

Su Qinrou has been so worried these past few days, she dare not go to Muhou's mansion, and she doesn't want to go to Hou's house, and stays in the courtyard all day sullen.

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Su Hou also sighed, "I don't know what the princess is thinking? Then Yi girl is also stubborn."

"Mother, my daughter doesn't know what to do about this matter now." Su Qinrou raised her eyes to look at Mrs. Suhou, "I have no choice but to refuse to help."

"You'd better be like this." Mrs. Suhou continued, "In order not to hurt your peace, you will naturally prepare for a big marriage after you reach the age of [-]. If you offend the princess because of this matter, I will be worried when you marry into the Mu family. .”

"Don't worry about my daughter." Su Qinrou nodded and said, holding Mrs. Suhou's hand, "Mother, my daughter wants to spend more time with you."

"You girl." Mrs. Su Hou looked at her with a slight smile, "Women always have to take this step. Since you can find a good match, you must manage it well, and you must not take advantage of others."

"Daughter wrote it down." Suqin replied obediently.

"Seeing that you are improving more and more now, I feel relieved a lot." Mrs. Su Hou said while touching her cheek.

At this time, a girl's report came from outside, "Miss, Miss Hou is here."

"En." Surprise flashed across Su Qinrou's eyes, apparently he did not expect Hou Yiyi to come over at this time.

Mrs. Su Hou looked at her, "Perhaps I came to ask you to complain."

"Hey." Su Qinrou had a sad face, "I don't know how to comfort her now."

"Forget it, you just talk to her, she needs someone to accompany her at this moment." Mrs. Su Hou looked at her and said.

"Yes, mother." Su Qinrou nodded in response, and then got up to meet Hou Yiyi in person.

After the two met and greeted each other, they entered Su Qinrou's courtyard together.

Hou Yiyi raised her eyes and looked at her, "I only came here to talk about myself."

"I know." Su Qinrou held her hand, "Look, it only took a few days to become so haggard."

"I know you don't want me to mention her." Hou Yiyi's eyes flashed with resentment, "I won't mention her."

"I don't know how to comfort you about this matter." Su Qinrou sighed softly, "But you are feeling better now, so I am relieved."

"It's better, I won't die." Hou Yiyi said and shed tears.

Seeing Yu Xinrou, Su Qinrou couldn't bear it, and quickly took out a silk handkerchief to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, "What awaits you, when will the body be found?"

"I heard Master Zhang is still in prison?" Hou Yiyi looked at her and asked.

"Yes, Sister Lu is in a hurry." Su Qinrou said softly.

Hou Yiyi shook her hand, "Don't talk about that, I'm not worried about finding you here today."

"I'll spend a good day with you." Su Qinrou looked at her and said.

"I'm looking for you because I want you to accompany me to see Mr. Zhang." Hou Yiyi looked at Su Qinrou and said.

"Oh." Su Qinrou nodded in response, "I'm going to take a look."

"Then let's go now." Hou Yiyi whispered.

"Okay." Su Qinrou nodded, "Wait for me."

"En." Hou Yiyi barely showed a smile, and after Su Qinrou packed up, the two left Suhou's mansion together, and went to the prison in a carriage.

After arriving in the prison, Su Qinrou and Hou Yiyi went to the prison. Zhang Zongzheng was wearing a prison uniform and sitting on a wooden bench reading a book, his brows were deeply furrowed, thinking that he was still worried about the murderer.

Hou Yiyi and Su Qinrou stepped forward, "Master Zhang."

"I'm just a prisoner now." Zhang Zong stood up and looked at the two of them, and said in a low voice.

"Master Zhang, the murderer will be brought to justice, Master Zhang, don't worry." Su Qinrou comforted.

"Hey, the only thing that can be solved now is..." Zhang Zong raised his eyes to look at Hou Yiyi, and then swallowed the rest of the words.

Hou Yiyi lowered her eyes and remained silent, Su Qinrou said some comforting words, and then she and Hou Yiyi came out of the prison together.

"I don't know when the murderer will be caught." Su Qinrou looked at Hou Yiyi, "Why don't you go and see Sister Lu."

"No, I have a headache." Hou Yiyi rubbed her forehead, looked up at her, "I'll go home first."

"Alright." Seeing that her face was pale, Su Qinrou helped her into the carriage, and personally sent her back to Hou's house, and then returned to Suhou's mansion.

A day passed like this, and the next day, news came from the prison that Master Zhang had died.

As soon as this news came out, those people who worshiped in Jingzhaoyin's government office went to the prison one after another, and the capital became even more chaotic for a while. They only felt that Mr. Zhang's death was too wronged.

The emperor ordered the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Punishment to thoroughly investigate the case, and after a few more days like this, there was no clue.

When Mrs. Lu heard the news of Zhang Zong's death, she couldn't take it anymore and went to examine the body herself. She even endured the pain of losing her husband and guarded Zhang Zong's body all day long.

In the middle of the night, Hou Yiyi stood in front of Zhong Xuan with a condensed expression, "Now that Zhang Zong is dead and Mu Ziyan has been brought to the fore, you should be satisfied, return my brother's body to me."

"It's impossible now." Zhong Xuan looked at her and said, "If I return it to you now, won't Miss Hou be suspicious?"

"What do you mean?" Hou Yiyi looked at her and said with his eyes slightly darkened.

"If Hou Shizi's body was brought out in Muhou's Mansion." Zhong Xuan said half of what he said, but Hou Yiyi already understood everything.

"I can't do this." Hou Yiyi continued.

"Miss Hou just needs to go to Muhou Mansion to ask for the corpse." Zhong Xuan said with a smile.

"Okay." Hou Yiyi said, "I did Zhang Zong's death myself. Now I have become your accomplice. If I don't agree, you will tell the matter, and I will not escape the responsibility."

"Miss Hou is sure enough." Zhong Xuan said with a slight smile.

Hou Yiyi turned around and left, not staying for long.
