Madam let me die

Chapter 204 The Princess' Nurse
As the nurse of the eldest princess in the past, Guan Lijuan's residence is not the luxurious mansion as imagined, but a very ordinary small courtyard.

There are only two trees in the yard.

One is a jujube tree, and the other is also a jujube tree.

In the west corner of the yard is a pigsty, in which two big sows whine.

Li Nanke knocked on the courtyard door.

The door was opened by a woman with dark cheeks.

"Hello, is Mrs. Guan Lijuan here?" Li Nanke asked politely.

"Are you her relatives?"

The black-faced woman looked suspiciously at the two men outside the house.

Since Guan Lijuan returned to her hometown, more and more people came to visit her relatives. Even the wild dogs outside would bark twice when they came, trying to find a way out.

"No, we are from the Night Watch Division."

Li Nanke took out his identity token.

"Oh, you are friends with that white-eyed wolf?" Mrs. Blackface's tone turned cold instantly.

White-eyed wolf?
The two people outside the door were taken aback after hearing this.

"Who is the white-eyed wolf? Auntie, did you recognize the wrong person?" Bai Buai asked in bewilderment.

Li Nanke seemed to understand something, and said with a smile: "Auntie, we are not Zong Yuyu's friend, she is dead, we are here to investigate something."

"What? Zong Yuyu is dead!?"

The black-faced woman opened her mouth wide in disbelief.

"It turns out that the white-eyed wolf you mentioned is her." Bai Buai reacted, and said with a smile, "That bitch is already dead. I must be very happy to see you hate her so much."

Seeing that the black-faced woman was still in a daze, Bai Buai pushed her away impatiently, and shouted into the room, "Is Mrs. Guan at home? Say yes if she is!"

"Hey, why are you like this?"

The black-faced woman came back to her senses, hurriedly grabbed him, and said displeasedly, "I didn't even tell you to go in, why did you rush in here, is there any law for you?"

"I am Wang Fa."

Bai Buai rolled up his sleeves, "Why don't you fight me and beat me out."

Li Nanke was speechless by the rogue behavior of the little prince. He said to the black-faced woman with a pleasant face: "We only disturbed Mrs. Guan to investigate Zong Yuyu's case. Please forgive me. If she is here, please let us see her." one side."

The black-faced woman hesitated for a moment, finally nodded, and said softly, "Come with me."

Bai Buai rolled up his sleeves, and when the woman turned around, she winked at Li Nanke.

The latter is simply ignored.

Entering the back room, Li Nanke saw a thin-faced woman lying on the bed.

Judging from her age, Guan Lijuan should be in her 40s now, but the woman's hair has already turned half white, and there are obvious wrinkles on her face.

And the whole person looks sick, and half of his energy seems to be missing.

"Madam, an officer from the Night Watch Division is visiting you."

The black-faced woman picked up a cushion and put it on Guan Lijuan's back, making her sit up straighter, and whispered something in her ear.

Presumably, it should be the news of Zong Yuyu's death.

Guan Lijuan's half drooping eyelids opened a little.

It might be that the light in the room was a little dark, so she waved her hand to signal the black-faced woman to open all the half-covered curtains.

The woman responded and opened the curtains.

The dark room was immediately filled with bright light, and it became much brighter.

But when Guan Lijuan saw Li Nanke's face clearly, her expression changed suddenly.

became terrified.

The already pale face looked even paler at this moment.

Her body trembled unconsciously.

More like a twitch.

Li Nanke was puzzled, he didn't understand why the woman in front of him suddenly changed his face.

Could it be that he saw something unclean?
Even at this moment, Li Nanke felt a chill down his back.

"Ma'am, what's the matter with you?"

Seeing this, the black-faced woman also panicked, and hurried forward to hug Guan Lijuan.

"I don't see... I don't see... I don't see anything..."

Guan Lijuan lowered her head and dared not look at Li Nanke, like a frightened bird, she curled up and said to herself, repeating over and over again, "This is a dream, it must be a dream, I didn't see it... ..."

"Is this woman sick here?"

Bai Buai whispered to Li Nanke, pointing to his forehead.

Li Nanke frowned and stared at the panicked woman.

Hesitating slightly in his heart, Li Nanke stepped forward and said, "Madam Guan, I am Li Nanke, the Night Patrol Officer. I am here today to ask you something, not to take you for interrogation."

The black-faced woman was also trying to comfort her.

After a long time, the woman's mood gradually stabilized.

But she still didn't dare to look at Li Nanke, her eyes turned to the vast sky outside the window, her pupils seemed to lose focus.

"It's not a dream..."

Guan Lijuan's voice was as soft as a feather.

The three people in the room looked at her, not knowing what to say for a while.

After a while, Guan Lijuan turned her head and stared quietly at Li Nanke, as if trying to ignore some dirty things, and asked, "Ask whatever you want."

Seeing that the other party returned to normal, Li Nanke couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and asked, "Zong Yuyu came to your place a few days ago, right?"

"Correct."

Guan Lijuan nodded lightly, "She made a mistake and wanted me to intercede with His Royal Highness the Princess, but I refused."

"Did she meet anyone else in the meantime?"

Li Nanke habitually took out his small notebook, intending to record some clues.

Bai Buai craned his neck to take a look, and found that he didn't understand, so he found a stool by himself, sat there leisurely, picked up an apple on the table and ate it.

The black-faced woman looked puzzled, but said nothing.

"Only the girl from the Zhang family came to her and said something to apologize."

Guan Lijuan said.

really!

Li Nanke's eyes flashed, and he asked: "What's the name of Zhang's girl, and where is she now?"

"already dead."

It was the black-faced woman who spoke.

She looked at Bai Bai with some disgust, and said in a muffled voice:

"That girl's name is Zhang Ertao. When Zong Yuyu came here for the first time, he had some conflicts with her. It was Madam who persuaded her to give up.

But just four nights ago, that girl hanged herself. "

The words of the black-faced woman reminded Li Nanke of the funeral procession when he entered the village.

It seemed that it was Zhang Ertao's funeral.

Sure enough, it was contagious.

"Did he take off his clothes and hang himself?" Bai Buai finally understood Li Nanke's purpose and asked first.

The black-faced woman stared at him in surprise, "How do you know?"

Bai Buai said triumphantly: "I know everything in the sky and on the earth, so I can figure out such a little thing just by doing the math."

It's just that this bragging is exchanged for the woman's contempt.

Li Nanke asked a few more words, and after knowing the address of Zhang Ertao's home, he ended the questioning.

Before leaving, Guan Lijuan called him suddenly.

"Have you ever had a nightmare, dreaming that... you can't escape?"

Nightmare?

Li Nanke didn't know why.

"I hope it's all false." Guan Lijuan sighed, stopped talking, and looked at the gloomy sky again.

…………

After leaving Guan Lijuan's house, Li Nanke and Li Nanke came to Zhang Ertao's house.

Following this line of investigation, Li Nanke found out that Zhang Ertao had been to Fengyunhui, and something was not quite right after he came back.

The Fengyun Society is a new organization after the disintegration of the Xuanyuan Society.

The eldest is Shi Yan, also known as Uncle Hai, who used to be the second head of the Xuanyuan Society.

"Go, go to Fengyunhui!"

Bai Buai waved her hand and said, "Today, no matter what, I will assist you, Shentan Li, to solve the case!"
