Destiny Phoenix

Chapter 114 The Secret Behind

The orchid died.

Her body was found in the well, and when it was fished out, it was soaked and rotted beyond recognition.

Bai Xiu almost fainted from crying.

"Who did it?" Feng Qingyao asked.

What she asked was Hua Banli.

Hua Banli spread her hands, expressing that she didn't know.

"You wander around the mansion all day, who did what, how could you not know?" Feng Qingyao said that if you don't tell the truth, I will break up with you, staring at him Biyu with sharp eyes like eyes.

"I really don't know." He was telling the truth. On the day of the accident, he happened to be away from the prime minister's mansion.

After Feng Qingyao checked his eyes again and again, she finally believed his words.

The simplest way to find out the murderer didn't work, so she could only think of other ways, and suddenly she thought of something, and she asked again: "Will Lanhua become a ghost like you after death? Can you find her?"

Hua Banli shook his head again, "Not all people will become ghosts after death." Only those souls whose wishes have not been fulfilled will choose to stay in the yang world and endure the loneliness from life to life, just to get rid of the one that happened before. Long cherished wish.

Disappointment welled up in Feng Qingyao's eyes.

"I checked the body, and there was no valuable clue except for a piece of cloth she was clutching in her hand. She has been drowning for so long that it is difficult to distinguish whether the wounds on her body were from being hit or from falling."

"Where does she usually go, but who has she offended?" Hua Banli reminded.

"I heard from Bai Xiu that she was sold into the prime minister's mansion as a maid when she was very young. At that time, her mother thought she was young and ignorant, so she stayed with her. She has never left her mother all these years. Accompanying my mother to go to the temple to offer incense, and occasionally going shopping with Bai Xiu, I don’t know many people outside.”

"Who did you have conflicts with in the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

"I've never heard of this before." She thought about it carefully, "Lanhua is usually careless and doesn't like to care about it, and the people in the prime minister's house still like her."

"You are talking about a servant of Xiangfu." Hua Banli's jasper-like eyes flashed a gleam of brilliance, which had no deep meaning.

Feng Qingyao suddenly understood something.

Lan Hua is her mother's personal maid. If she was really killed, then the person who killed her may not necessarily be aiming at her, but it is very likely that the target is her own mother!
"Miss, look what this is." Bai Xiu hurried over.

Carrying a lotus-colored bag in his hand, one corner of the bag was opened, and a woman's clothes could be vaguely seen inside.

Feng Qingyao took it over, and opened the bundle to see that it was a light blue dress with some scars on the embroidery on the neckline, like the marks left by tearing.When she flipped through the sleeves, she froze.

The fabric on the sleeve was torn open with a gap the size of a palm, and the missing part was exactly the same size as the one she found from Lanhua's hand.

It's just that the fabric in Lanhua's hand is green, while the fabric of this dress is light cyan.

"Where did you get it?" I seem to have seen this dress somewhere.

"Today is Lanhua's seventh day. I was planning to go to the grave to burn some paper money for her. When I was about to reach the cemetery in the north of the city, I suddenly saw the second lady walking there. I was puzzled, so I followed, but I found that she was going outside the city. In order to lose something." Bai Xiu pouted, if it was found that Lan Hua's death was related to Feng Qingge, one master and one servant, this revenge would not be avenged.

Feng Qingyao understood Bai Xiu's thoughts, but she was more worried about what purpose Feng Qingge wanted to achieve by killing the orchids.

If it was murder to silence her, what was the secret she was hiding?
