Ashamed, as Su Mu, the eldest son of the Marquis of Anding, this is the first time he knows that he actually has a younger brother.

Su Mu was calm on the surface, but his heart was already beating.

After Liu Xiaoran finished explaining her reason for coming, she quietly waited for Su Mu's next words.

If the person who abducted Su Mu was an irrelevant person, or someone Su Mu didn't know well, it would be reasonable for Su Mu to know nothing, but now the only suspect is his younger brother, and Liu Xiaoran couldn't understand what was going on in front of him.Is the person in love really as innocent as he sees.

After waiting for a long time, Su Mu still remained calm and said nothing, so he didn't say much, ended with "I will continue to investigate", and planned to leave.

At this moment, Su Mu had forcibly withdrawn from his chaotic thoughts, and he thought of a very serious question.

If it is said that the person who lured the original owner or asked to go to the Huancai Pavilion was his younger brother, then the original owner must have met Su Qi at that time. Facts have proved that Su Qi's move was also a deadly move, but he happened to be on the original owner's sidebody, accidentally did not die.If Su Qi was a criminal suspect with a normal mind, what would be the first thing he would do?

Kill people.

But he hasn't been in any danger in the past few days at Marquis Mansion, and he has never even seen his nominal brother.

"Wait for Liu Shaoqing!" Su Mu stretched out his hand to stop Liu Xiaoran, "I'm afraid my brother's matter is not that simple. You came to me to explain the situation in such a hurry this time. Apart from having doubts about me, you also think that he might have a good opinion of me.I'm at a disadvantage."

Seeing that Liu Xiaoran didn't deny it, Su Mu felt relieved and continued to say: "But in the past few days, not only has he not done anything bad to me, but he has never even appeared in front of me. I think——he may be knowing that I woke up.After I got the news, I was worried that I would tell him and escaped, or maybe..."

"If... if there is someone else besides my brother in this matter, and Su Qi is just a pawn of that person, then Su Qi has probably been silenced, and their goal may be me, orStabilizing Marquis Mansion may be a bigger secret than stabilizing Marquis Mansion."

Facing Liu Xiaoran's gaze, Su Mu felt a little guilty, lowered his eyes and dodged, "I know Liu Shaoqing doesn't believe me now. To be honest, it's hard for me to believe this, but I really——can't remember thatEverything that happened that day, including how he took me to the Huancai Pavilion, and how he killed me."

Su Mu really felt a little wronged, it was the first time he felt what it meant to be speechless, this Su Qi was too ignorant, he actually came to frame his brother himself, and let himself take such a big scapegoat for no reason.Presumably, the trust that I finally gained back in front of this Liu Shaoqing will be almost lost again.

Liu Xiaoran didn't speak, she looked away, raised her legs and continued to walk out, but turned around after walking a few steps.

"Just now when I went to the main hall, I asked the servants of your house, and they all said that Su Qi said five or six days ago that he was going to Jiang Prefecture, and they have never seen him again."

"I have sent people from Dali Temple to search for Su Qi's whereabouts in Capital City. If there is no news in two days, I will go to Jiang Prefecture."

Afterwards, he said word by word: "I said that I will investigate to the end, and I will definitely not let everyone behind the matter go."

"If you are one of them, I will definitely find evidence to let you go to justice, but before there is no evidence, although I don't believe you, I will not doubt you for no reason, let alone treat you as a suspect."

"As for whether I believe it or not, Yu Gong, I only believe in the clear and obvious principles of heaven, and I only believe in myself." Liu Xiaoran shook her head, "So you don't have to care about whether I believe it or not, you can do it with a clear conscience.yes."

Hearing this, Su Mu raised his eyes and met Liu Xiaoran's face. Although the other party was still as cold and distant as winter snow, there was no malice in his eyes, and there was just fairness and clarity in discussing the matter.

It turns out that there were already such people in Dali Temple thousands of years ago.

Su Mu bowed slightly, and when he looked up again, Liu Xiaoran's figure had disappeared behind the stone gate.

Up to now, I can't allow myself to stay out of the matter. I thought at most that the original owner offended someone unintentionally, so he was framed, but I didn't expect it to be the original owner's younger brother.

There were a lot of bloody dramas in his mind, but he had to worry about his own guesses.

If - if there was really someone else behind Su Qi, then who would this person be, and who would be able to quietly manipulate the second son of the Marquis of Anding to backstab his brother.

Su Mu sighed, feeling that he was too unlucky, and he couldn't be a person who would eat and wait to die after time travel. Fortunately, he has always been a character who is calm when he comes, and he doesn't complain about others.After thinking about it for a while, he realized that his unfounded conjectures were too outrageous. If he wanted to find out what kind of person this Su Qi was, he still needed to visit the place first.

Although the efficiency of Dali Temple is far higher than he imagined, if Zha Su Qi's contacts are in the past, they must not be as convenient as himself, but Su Mu is now a little uncertain about the relationship between the two brothers.

If you say they are good, they are all good enough to use a knife, but if you say bad, why did Su Mu go to Huancai Pavilion alone?

Su Mu jumped back and forth between the two, and finally leaned towards a bad relationship.

If the two brothers really have such a good relationship, how could they have been awake for so long, and no one has ever mentioned him in front of them?Even the big event that the second son has not returned for a long time is like a small stone slipping into the unfathomable pool of water in Anding Marquis Mansion, and there is no news of it.

A Ying and Ah Huan were carrying small buckets in the backyard to feed the koi in the pond, chatting happily.Su Mu didn't delay, and stepped forward to stand behind the two of them.

A Ying was listing the signature dishes of the Yichun Building in the city, saying how many times she passed by there and saw that the dishes were so exquisite that people couldn't take their eyes off. When she was reporting for anchovy fin, she turned her head slightly and saw listening behind her.Su Mu, who was serious, was so frightened that he almost threw the small bucket in his hand into the pool.

"Little Marquis!" Ah Huan also saw it, and quickly turned around, and the two of them realized that they should salute Su Mu.

Su Mu waved his hand lightly. Although he knew that the original owner might not have been a lively and talkative person before, but now he really couldn't bear to let the two girls be scared out of their wits by him, so he offered a word of comfort.

"It's okay, don't be afraid."

A Huan and A Ying both breathed a sigh of relief. Although the young master never treated his servants harshly, because he didn't like to talk, they always made them feel a little scared of him. Now Su Mu's voice is soft, and he must be lifeless.

"I came to see you—I want to ask you something." Su Mu coughed lightly, and said without changing his expression, "I heard... Su Qi went out to Jiang Prefecture a few days ago, do you know about this?"

He was not sure how Su Mu called Su Qi on weekdays. Calling his younger brother seemed too intimate, and calling him the second son seemed too ostentatious. In the end, he could only call him Su Qi. It sounded like addressing someone of the same age.The safest.

There was a look of surprise on the faces of the two little girls, and then they glanced at each other quickly, Ah Huan said hesitantly: "Yes... yes, I seem to have heard Wang Jing from the second son say,Second Young Master went out to travel."

"How much do you... know about him?" Su Mu asked in deliberation.These two little girls always gossip wherever there is gossip, but now they are so hesitant about Su Qi's matter, it must be a bit weird to think about it.

Now Ah Huan and A Ying's expressions were even more strange, and finally Ah Huan asked in a voice: "Young Lord, why are you asking this suddenly? You and the second son have never had any contact."

Well, it seems that it really doesn't work.

Su Mu touched the tip of his nose.

Could it be that he thought too much, that Su Mu just offended Su Qi unintentionally, and Su Qi only set out to frame him because he simply hated Su Mu?

"Since Mrs. Mo passed away, Second Young Master... always goes to some...some unscrupulous places on weekdays, and doesn't listen to Mrs. Qin's words. Even...even..."

"When the news of Marquis came, he was still outside looking for fun, didn't even shed a tear, and came back drunk in the middle of the night. He almost smashed Marquis' tablet."

Ah Huan's voice became even quieter, she was really nervous.They can't talk about the master's family, but right now they have to answer Su Mu's question, so they can only talk about things that everyone has seen.

A Ying also shook her head: "We have been with Madam since we entered the mansion, so we have very little contact with the second son, and we only listen to others when we have news."

Su Mu suddenly realized.

I didn't hear any news about this younger brother. It turned out that this younger brother was not my own mother, but the child of another wife of Marquis Anding, and his mother had passed away long ago.

It's no wonder that the family didn't care about his departure. People in this era value blood ties. Even if Mrs. Qin is a loving person, she must eventually lose patience with this kind of child who is not of her own blood and has no progress.Let him go.

Su Mu nodded, and thanked him in a low voice. Just as he was about to leave, Ah Huan patted his head and added as if he had thought of something: "Second Young Master, is it a month? Or was it a month and a half ago?I brought back a woman whose appearance is different from ours, and was scolded by my wife."

"I heard from Wang Jing that the Second Young Master didn't take anyone with him on this trip, he only took this woman with him."

Su Mu turned around and narrowed his eyes.

"It looks strange?"

"Well! Anyway, it's a little different from us. The man's eyes are very big, and his head is covered with a hat decorated with gold ornaments. He is wearing that kind of yarn-woven clothes, and his whole body is full of jingling gems., Every step I take makes a loud noise."

"I heard from Second Young Master that this woman is called Bodhisattva Man."

The author has something to say:

Well, this is just an opening chapter, leading to the following cases, and then it will be based on this main line - about why the younger brother stabbed himself to death, and then unit cases + main line cases will be interspersed together ~ generally there will not be too muchComplicated and difficult cases, the ancient people were relatively pure and kind, at most they would destroy the family (Wang Tian)
