Pluto's Golden Concubine

In order to avoid the marriage between Ao Guang and Situ Xiyue, the king of the underworld, and to avoid any relationship with the king of the underworld, Situ Yi did complain to the outside world.

But he never expected that this would become an excuse for Situ Qingyun to seize power.

It all happened so suddenly!

It's too fast to catch people off guard!

As for why those tribesmen recommended Situ Qingyun, on the one hand, it was because Situ Mansion needed a stronger person to lead, and Situ Qingyun met this requirement.

On the other hand, it is also the deterrence from Situ Qingyun, anyone is afraid of death!

The first thing Situ Qingyun did after becoming the patriarch was very unexpected. He married Situ Chuyue as quickly as possible.

Although it was a distant marriage, but the other party's family was rich and attached to Situ's mansion, even if he knew what happened to Situ Chuyue before, he would not dare to treat her badly.

So, even though Aunt Xue was unwilling, she complied and sent Situ Chuyue out of the city gate, crying all the time.

After Situ Qingyun took office, he respected Aunt Xue as Mrs. Xue, raising her status.

In the past, Mrs. Mei was the housekeeper, but now Mrs. Xue is behind the new patriarch, so she had to hand over half of the rights.

For a while, the entire Situ mansion was not slowed down, only Situ Xiyue knew this already.

However, Situ Xiyue did not expect that Situ Qingyun would launch a surprise attack, and it was indeed "vigorous and resolute".

Really, happy!

To say that Situ Qingyun did have means, but within a few days, he suppressed the dissatisfied voices in the mansion. The means were very strong, much better than what Situ Yi did.

"Miss, he sent all the best things in the mansion to our Ouxiangyuan now, and those servants don't dare to bully others, so it's good!" Qing Yao put fresh cherries in front of Situ Xiyue.

"Now our Langyafang and Cuiyan Pavilion are running very well, and the profits in the shops are very gratifying. I believe that we will be able to open branches in a short time."

Ever since Situ Xiyue supported the fair competition between Langyafang and Cuiyan Pavilion, Qingyao and Danzhu have been more attentive, and Situ Xiyue is very satisfied with this.

The three masters and servants were chatting, and a servant came over:

"Fifth Miss, Master has passed away—"

"What?!" Situ Xiyue stood up in surprise.

"The master has passed away, the patriarch asked the fifth lady to go over! The other wives and misses have already passed away!"

Situ Yi's death came very suddenly, and he died inexplicably when he stepped down from the position of patriarch, which naturally aroused criticism, and all kinds of spearheads were pointed at Situ Qingyun.

Situ Qingyun also felt extremely wronged. Although he wanted to be the patriarch, he never thought of Situ Yi's death.

What's more, at such a sensitive time, whatever happened to Situ Yi would be very unfavorable to him. Situ Qingyun would not shoot himself in the foot.

When Situ Xiyue arrived, Mrs. Mei and Situ Xinyue were crying on Situ Yi's body, clamoring for an autopsy.

The grievances of the past few days finally broke out Mrs. Mei's forbearance.

Mrs. Mei's biggest grievance was being divided of the right to be in charge of the house.But her backer, Empress Liu Min, has been ill and unconscious, and no one supports her.

Now, Situ Yi's death is not a good opportunity for Mrs. Mei to redress her grievances!

Mrs. Mei said, "Master died wronged", and pointed the finger at Situ Qingyun, which made Situ Qingyun very annoyed, but she was afraid of causing even greater conflicts.

When Situ Xiyue came in, Situ Qingyun walked over immediately as if seeing hope.

"Second brother, why did father die?"

Situ Xiyue looked at Situ Qingyun with doubts in his eyes.

If Situ Yi was really killed by Situ Qingyun, then she would have to consider whether she was right or wrong in supporting Situ Qingyun!

After all, Situ Yi has always loved Situ Qingyun very much all these years, if he could really attack Situ Yi, he would be a beast!

"not me!"

Hearing that Situ Xiyue shook his head in Situ Xiyue's words, Situ Qingyun shook his head quickly, "I didn't!"

Situ Qingyun's expression did not seem to be lying, Situ Xiyue nodded, and came to Situ Yi's body.

The seven orifices were bleeding, the blood was black, and the complexion was black, these were all signs of poisoning.

"Aunt Mei, don't cry! Since everyone suspects the cause of father's death, we invite the great pharmacist to perform an autopsy on him. Second brother, let someone report to the police, father can't die in vain!"

Everyone agreed with Situ Xiyue's arrangement, and immediately someone went to invite Wen Taki, and someone went to the Yuyang government office.

The unrest in the Situ family these two days has already spread throughout the streets and alleys of Yuyang City.

Now, Situ Yi suddenly died suddenly, and it was even more strange. This matter was spread by interested people, and it immediately became the number one news in Yuyang City.

When Yin Zhouyu of Yuyang Mansion brought people to Situ Mansion, the gate of Situ Mansion was already surrounded by people who came to watch the excitement.

After all, this is the first time such a tragedy has happened in a big family.

Who doesn't want to watch the fun, who doesn't want to know the truth!

Situ Qingyun prepared a separate room for Wen Taki, and everyone waited outside for the result.

Zhou Yu led people and questioned the people in Situ's mansion one by one, and finally concluded that Situ Yi died between morning and noon, because Situ Yi was still alive when the boy who brought him breakfast left.

Wen Taki came out of the room after a stick of incense.

"How?" Situ Qingyun strode forward.

He's the one most concerned with the truth in the whole thing, because it involves his innocence.

"It's snake venom!"

Wen Ting asked Situ Yi to be carried out, and he pulled off his collar. There were two small tooth marks on the lower right side of Situ Yi's neck.

Situ Xiyue frowned, thinking of the silver flower snake that bit her that night, her expression became even more solemn.

In order to see the snake's tooth marks clearly, Situ Xiyue took a step forward, wanting to take a closer look.

When she was only one meter away from Situ Yi, a silver light suddenly flew out from Situ Yi's lips, heading straight for Situ Xiyue.

Silver snake!

Situ Xiyue saw it clearly, and just about to pull out the dagger at her waist, a big knife was placed in front of her, cutting off the Silver Flower Snake by the waist.

"Be careful—" The visitor stepped back with Situ Xiyue in his arms.

The severed Silver Flower Snake was still flying in the air, and finally bit a servant who couldn't dodge behind Situ Xiyue. The man didn't scream, but struggled twice before falling to the ground and dying.

What a sinister snake!

Situ Xiyue's heart skipped a beat.

When something like this happened, Wen Taki hurried over.

He just checked that there was no silver flower snake in Situ Yi's mouth. Could it be that this snake has been hiding in Situ Yi's stomach?

"This is the Silver Flower Snake, we don't have this kind of snake in Hejiang Country!"

After inspecting the snake's body, Wen Taki said affirmatively, and then looked at Situ Xiyue with apology.

"It's all my fault. I didn't check thoroughly. I left this beast behind. I almost hurt the lady and even lost a life."

"I am fine."

Situ Xiyue shook her head, only then did she realize that someone was still holding her around the waist, she quickly withdrew and stood aside.

"Thank you-"

Situ Xiyue raised her head, her expression froze when she saw the person coming, "Why are you here?"
