Chapter 248 Miss Shangguan is suspicious
After leaving the governor's office, Dongfang Yunlie's anger became more and more intense.

It's not because he knew about the murder, Shangguan Birou, for that insignificant woman, nothing she did could arouse Dongfang Yunlie's emotions, except for that stubborn and human woman.

He allowed her to be angry with him, but he didn't allow her to use her own body and life to be angry with him.

Thinking of her hiding from Sun Boqin about Shangguan Birou's anomaly in Yuelao Temple, his anger became more and more intense.

"My lord, you are back."

Seeing Dongfang Yunlie, the housekeeper immediately came up to him with a strange expression on his face.

"Is there anything you want to tell the king?"

Dongfang Yunlie also noticed the strangeness on the butler's face.

"Yes, my lord."

"Go to the study."

"Yes."

In the study, the anger on Dongfang Yunlie's face has not completely subsided since he came out of the governor's office. He looked at the butler with a sullen face, and said, "What's the matter?"

Seeing the butler frowned, he seemed a little hesitant and embarrassed, and didn't know how to speak for a while.

After hesitating for a moment, the butler said, "My lord, there is something suspicious about this old slave, and I want to tell you about it."

"Go ahead."

All Dongfang Yunlie's thoughts were on Feng Qinyu's case, so he was not very interested in the suspicious things the butler said.

"My lord, on the day of Yuelao's birthday, Miss Shangguan borrowed 1000 taels of silver from Lao Nu, saying that she wanted to add some sesame oil money to Yuelao Temple. After much deliberation, Lao Nu still felt that something was wrong, so I came to tell the prince. .”

When the butler mentioned this, Dongfang Yunlie's originally indifferent face showed a stern look, "You said, Shangguan Birou took 1000 taels to Yuelao Temple."

"Yes, my lord."

After listening to the butler's words, Dongfang Yunlie closed his eyes and fell into silence.

This green Yama is exactly the same as the blood sesame grass in Nangu. Many people can't tell the difference between the two kinds of plants, and they are likely to eat them by mistake...

In his mind, what Feng Qinyu said that day after he gave Shangguan Birou a diagnosis and treatment rang.

He squinted his eyes, and a stern look flashed in his dark pupils, and he asked in a low voice, "Is that Chen Qi from Nangu?"

"Yes, my lord."

Seeing Dongfang Yunlie asking this suddenly, the housekeeper was a little surprised, but he nodded without hesitation.

But Dongfang Yunlie's eyes suddenly deepened, and the sternness in his eyes gradually deepened, "You said those people who were with Chen Qi said that after Chen Qi mentioned something about discussing the government, he became mysterious?"

"Yes, my lord."

Various colors flashed across Dongfang Yunlie's eyes at this moment, and after he pursed his lips and remained silent for a while, he said to the housekeeper, "You go down first."

"Yes, my lord."

The housekeeper didn't know what Dongfang Yunlie was thinking of, so he quietly glanced at Dongfang Yunlie, then stooped and retreated.

Dongfang Yunlie sat quietly in front of the desk, clenched his fists at this moment, on the back of his hand, the veins stood out and the roots were clearly defined.

The next day—

Early the next morning, Dongfang Yunlie did not directly question Shangguan Birou about her going to Yuelao Temple.

Although all signs told him that Chen Qi's death might have something to do with Shangguan Birou.

From the fact that Shangguan Birou was poisoned by Lu Yanluo, it can be seen that Shangguan Birou was probably from Nangu before she was brought back to Dongli Capital by Feng Qinyu to become the eldest lady of the Shangguan family. Because of the famine in Nangu, she He was poisoned because he mistakenly ate green yanluo as a blood zhicao.
