Husband is extremely regent

Chapter 175 Lu Muyu Was Kidnapped 3
Puff hehe...

Seeing Lu Shang's embarrassed appearance, Lu Xu couldn't help laughing.

Hurry to stop Dabai, and then Lu Shang climbed up from the ground tremblingly: "I just praised it, but it got angry and wanted to bite me."

"What are you praising it for?" Lu Xu asked curiously.

"I just said something like a big dog..."

"Ouch..."

Before Lu Shang finished speaking, Dabai started to get angry again, and he was so frightened that he quickly shrank behind Lu Xu.

"Dabai, those who don't know are not guilty." Lu Xu hurriedly comforted him: "He has never seen a wolf in the southern coast, especially a wolf as handsome and handsome as you. Don't be as knowledgeable as him."

"Wolf……"

Lu Shang was startled, and he swallowed after a long while.

After stuffing Dabai with a pill, Lu Xu got up and said, "Fourth brother came to Suyuan, are you looking for my father?"

Knowing that Lu Xu knew it was intentional, Lu Shang asked directly: "There is something in your words just now. Do you know something? If you know something, you might as well say it, so as not to make you suffer again after the matter is found out."

"Is the fourth brother threatening and intimidating my sister?"

Lu Xu's tone was serious, which startled Lu Shang a lot.

In memory, this little sister has always been docile, but now she seems to be a different person, which makes people shudder.

Quickly explained: "Sixth sister, fourth brother didn't mean that. Fourth brother wanted to say that you might as well say what you know. You also know that third brother has a bad temper. If he misunderstands you, it's not good."

"Why, he still dares to beat me."

Lu Xu was disgusted, and smiled sarcastically: "Do you think it was ten years ago, and you could bully me wantonly?"

Faced with Lu Xu's sarcasm, Lu Shangcai suddenly remembered that the sixth uncle is now the right minister, why should he despise Lu Xu, and why should he threaten the prime minister's only Miao Miao.

"Dabai, keep an eye on the portal, and don't let things that don't have eyesight enter the Shangsu Garden."

Lu Xu patted Dabai's furry head, got up and walked back to Shangsu Garden without looking back, leaving Lu Shang who used to be long-winded but also had a sense of justice.

Seeing that Lu Xu was about to leave, Lu Shang chased him and wanted to apologize.

Suddenly a sword was blocked in front of him, Qingniao said coldly: "Fourth Young Master, next time if you have something to ask our lady, remember to be respectful."

Qingluan was also deeply disappointed with Lu Shang: "Fourth son, if your surname is not Lu, we have the right to execute all of you to death based on your attitude towards Miss just now, and we have the right to execute all of you if you ask someone to do so in the future. Beg for help, otherwise don't come to my lady."

"Blue Bird, let's go."

Only then did Qingniao withdraw her sword resentfully, and followed Qingluan out of the mansion, leaving Lu Shang with a face full of shame.

Looking at Dabai who was lying motionless on the ground, Lu Shang lingered at the gate of Shangsu Garden for a while, knowing that he would not see Lu Xu today, other than leaving, he could only regret his recklessness.

When the news reached Jinhua Pavilion, the palms and backs of their hands were covered with flesh, and the two old men could only sigh, but the fault of the matter was with the third room, and they never understood the situation clearly, so it is understandable for Lu Xu to teach them a lesson.

"The bed is made, the young lady drank the calming soup and fell asleep, and when she wakes up, everything will be over."

After making the bed, Suzaku came to help Lu Xu undress, went out and came in with calming soup and said, "Qingluan and Qingniao will have no problem fighting together, miss just take a good rest."

Lu Xu looked at the calming soup in front of him, hesitated to drink it, got into the bed that had been warmed up long ago, fell asleep after a while, and a group of cats also climbed onto the bed one after another, and fell asleep next to Lu Xu. Let out a burst of comforting grunts.

Shangsuyuan finally regained its calm, until a cloud of black smoke rose in the South Market, and Qingluan hurried back to wake up Lu Xu.

"Miss, Madam's house in Qingshui Lane, Nanshiji, is flooded."

"what happened?"

Lu Xu huddled under the blanket and asked, could it be that the purpose of the third young lady was to get rid of Lu Muyu.

Qingluan lowered her voice and said: "I don't know what's going on, I found that I was not far from the house when I walked into the water, and when I arrived, the house was already engulfed in flames, I had to go to the palace to inform Qingniao, and let her stay and report to the master , the servant rushed back to inform the lady."

"Changing clothes for me, I'll go over and have a look right away."

Lu Xu got up from the bed, and after a quick wash, he brought Qingluan and Suzaku to Qingshui Lane in a carriage.

The fire had been extinguished, and the house was burned down. Three corpses were found and carried out, and they were placed in the yard. There was another person kneeling in front of the corpses and weeping bitterly.

"Give way……"

Qingluan opened the way ahead, protecting Lu Xu to the front of the three corpses.

Lu Xu glanced at Qingluan and said to Qingluan, "Without Lu Muyu, the three bodies are all men's corpses. Go ask your neighbors..."

"Oh Xiaoxu, you're here, look at this house..." A woman came over to salute and said, "Auntie was selling goods outside, and the house suddenly caught fire. Putting out the fire, I didn’t expect the fire to float on the snow and burn other places, is it a demon..."

"Auntie, don't be afraid, it's not a demon, it's kerosene."

Lu Xu interrupted the woman and said, "Oil is lighter than water, and it can float on the surface of water to burn. Auntie will know when she goes home and tries it."

Auntie's husband's family name is Ye, and she and her mother are old acquaintances. After her mother married into Lu's mansion, the old house was handed over to Auntie Ye's family to look after it. Set up a stall to do business.

Lu Xu came with his parents a few times, and he also knew Aunt Ye, so he comforted him, "Will the government be notified if a body is found in the house?"

"..."

"Lu Xu, what are you doing here?"

Before Aunt Ye could speak, she was interrupted roughly by a crying voice.

Lu Xu took a closer look and found that it was Lu Chong. He said lazily, "This is my mother's old residence. I received a message and came here to have a look. Why is Third Brother here?"

"It turns out that you were the one crying."

Staring at Lu Chong's red and swollen eyes, Lu Xu pretended to be shocked and teased, but actually laughed heartily.

Lu Chong quickly turned his face away, and it was the boy next to him who came over and said, "Back to Miss Six, our lady was about to be kidnapped, and my grandfather took the blackmail letter to Shuntian Mansion to report to the officials, but Mr. Gao still hasn't come back from court. I found the South Market Market with the help of Mr. Wang, but I didn't expect it to be a step too late, miss, she..."

"What happened to Mu Yu, where is she?"

Lu Xu was also curious, why Lu Muyu's body wasn't inside after everyone was burned to death.

The young man pointed in the direction of the corpses: "They are all burnt like that, and we can't recognize which one is Miss's corpse."

"You said that among the three corpses over there, one is your lady!" Lu Xu turned to look at Lu Chong, but when he saw his eyes swollen from crying, it seemed that there was no need to ask.

"Don't be too pessimistic. Wu Zuo hasn't come to confirm the gender of the deceased, so there may be a turning point." Lu Xu knew that there was no Lu Muyu in it, but he deliberately didn't say it. Anyway, Lu Chong might not believe it.

Suddenly thinking of the third young lady, Mrs. Fang, Lu Xu sighed and said, "I saw Mu Yu in Dongshi this morning, but I didn't expect her to be kidnapped. No wonder it was 280 taels."

"What, you have seen Mu Yu!" Lu Chong seemed to see hope, and asked a little puzzled: "What's the matter with 280 taels?"

"Third brother, you don't even know." Lu Xu showed a more acceptable expression: "The third sister-in-law stole Mu Yu's biological mother's relics and sold them off, and the proceeds were 280 taels. I thought you wanted it... Misunderstanding, How could the third brother harm his daughter?"

These words gave people the illusion that she, Lu Xu, had always misunderstood that it was Lu Chong and the Fang family who murdered Yuan Pei's daughter together.

"When did it happen?" Lu Chong couldn't wait to know the truth.

"This morning, at Huating Square." Lu Xu said without thinking, "Mu Yu didn't have enough money at the time, so I bought pearls from her for 300 taels because I liked the pearls, but she didn't Recognizing me, besides this is not a glorious thing, I think you don't want me to know, so you didn't show your identity."

"280 taels of silver, what's so strange?" He thought about the meaning behind this amount of silver.

"The third elder brother also knows that the third aunt and the third sister-in-law will help her natal family from time to time, but the 280 taels is not enough. I'm afraid it's not enough for the Fang family's daily expenses, so my younger sister thinks it's very strange. It wasn't until I found out that Mu Yu was kidnapped. I just had an idea that I shouldn't have."

Lu Chong understood the meaning of her words, and said calmly: "If I want to kill her, why spend a lot of time and money on treating her."

"My sister misunderstood third brother, but..."

Lu Xu accidentally caught sight of Lin Weifeng in the crowd, and changed his words: "Mr. Wu Zuo has arrived, and he quickly identified the gender of the corpse."

"Master Lin, we meet again."

Lu Xu left Lu Chong and went to say hello, Lin Weifeng was startled and said, "Lu...why is Miss Lu here?"

He didn't expect to meet Lu Xu at the scene of the crime. Knowing that she was famous, Lin Weifeng quickly changed his name to "Miss Lu", otherwise those people would definitely rush over to see her when they heard Miss Lu Xu was here. The discovery site will also be destroyed.

"The one that was burned down was our mother's residence before she left the cabinet. I came here to take a look when I received the news."

"So that's the case." Lin Weifeng didn't ask any more questions, just squatted down and started to work, and simply checked the aisle: "The three corpses are all male, and they died of the fire after preliminary inspection..."

"The three corpses are all men!" Lu Chong couldn't wait to interrupt Lin Weifeng.

Lin Weifeng's work was interrupted, he raised his head and glanced lightly at the speaker, feeling that he was a bit kind, turned to look at Lu Xu, guessed something but wasn't sure.

"Mr. Lin, this is my third elder brother, Lu Chong, the eldest son of the third house." Lu Xu hurriedly introduced to the two: "Third elder brother, this is Mr. Lin Weifeng from the Guangxinhou Mansion, and he is Mr. Wu Zuo from the Shuntian Mansion. .”

They turned out to be cousins, no wonder at first glance, the eyebrows are somewhat similar.

"The three are all male corpses, and there are no female corpses. Could it be that Mu Yu is not dead?"

Lu Chong couldn't believe what he heard, but there was still a glimmer of hope in his heart, and he was surprised and happy for a while,

Lin Weifeng glanced at Lu Xu strangely. With her knowledge, she should be able to tell at a glance that there were three male corpses in front of her. Why didn't she tell her cousin immediately.

Sensing Lin Weifeng's gaze, Lu Xu immediately said with a smile on his face: "Third Brother, Mr. Lin has assisted Shuntian Mansion to solve many difficult cases. His judgment is not wrong. Maybe Mu Yu found the opportunity and escaped."

Lu Chong did not answer immediately, but stared at the corpse in a daze, as if thinking of something.

"Three brothers."

Seeing that he didn't respond for a while, Lu Xu called again.

Lu Chong said loudly: "Mu Yu escaped, but she is not familiar with the roads of the capital, where can she go?"

Lu Xu closed his eyes and searched in the South Market, but did not find Lu Muyu's whereabouts. Could it be that she had already left the South Market, where could she escape to hide in a hurry.

"So, Miss Mu Yu set the fire?"

"It's impossible."

Lin Weifeng opened his mouth.Lu Xu immediately denied it and said, "According to Aunt Ye's kerosene fueling the fire, where did Mu Yu get the kerosene for the kidnapped?"

Hearing that Lin Weifeng walked up to the ashes, rubbed his fingers with a little ash: "There is indeed kerosene, and there is a lot of it. Why did Miss Mu Yu appear at the scene of the crime?"

"It was kidnapped."

Lu Xu replied without thinking: "My third brother received a letter from the kidnapper."

There was a fatal accident, and there were some things that could not be concealed. Lu Chong hurriedly handed over the kidnapper's letter, but Lin Weifeng immediately evaded it:

"Mr. Lu San, I am just an assistant, and the investigation of the case is not under my control."

"Third Brother, just hand over the kidnapper's letter to Brother Guancha, and they will pass it on to Mr. Gao. The immediate priority is to find Mu Yu first."

Lu Xu was afraid that Lu Chong would make a fool of himself again, so he quickly changed the topic and said, "There are several roads from Nanshi Market to Dongcheng, and Mu Yu doesn't know which direction she is going in a hurry, why don't I draw her outfit today , everyone take the portrait and look for it separately."

"According to your portrait, can you find someone?" Suddenly hearing that Lu Xu wanted to draw a portrait, Lin Weifeng immediately assumed her style of painting.

"It's not that I don't know how to draw seriously, it's just that I don't like painting." Lu Xu hurriedly defended himself, Qingluan had already gone to borrow the Four Treasures of the Study, and Aunt Ye also helped move the table on a flat ground.

Lu Xu studied the ink hastily, and quickly drew Lu Muyu in two states.

"Why did you draw two figures?"

Lin Weifeng asked puzzledly, a woman who was wearing a veil and a veil like her now, was tightly wrapped.

The other one lost her veiled cap and wrapped her head tightly with a cloak. She secretly guessed that Miss Lu Muyu had injuries on her face and could not look at others.

Lu Xu put down his pen, pointed to the tightly wrapped figure and said, "This is what she looked like when I saw her in Huating Square this morning, and this is how I speculate that after she was kidnapped, she dropped the veil and ran away in a hurry. "

"Third brother, I'll draw a few more pictures, and everyone will find them separately."

Lu Xu drew several portraits with a few strokes and said, "Let someone take the portraits and start asking questions along the street from this area."

Looking at the portrait in his hand in surprise, Lu Chong immediately said to his subordinates: "Each of you take a picture and open the phone to search along the street. If you find Miss's whereabouts, you will immediately send a signal to everyone. If you find Miss, I will reward you a lot."

Lu Chong distributed the portraits to his subordinates and ordered them to start looking for someone, and then he turned his head and nodded to Lu Xu to join the search team.

"The kidnapping was done by Miss Lu, right?"

Lin Weifeng looked deeply at Lu Xu thoughtfully, this woman is really incomprehensible.
