Lord Chu's Wife is Wild

Chapter 400: Something Strange



Chapter 400: Something Strange

Cai Xue was rendered speechless by Chu Sihan’s words.

On careful thought, it was indeed as Chu Sihan had said.

It seemed like she was the one who caused the Tan family to be wiped out.

Although she was not the direct murderer, she was worse than the direct murderer.

“Oh—”

Cai Xue suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest. She clutched the murderer and spat out a mouthful of black blood.

“Ha!”

Seeing the black blood, she crawled backwards in shock.

Lu Sheng glanced at the blood and kindly reminded her. “You’re poisoned.”

Cai Xue felt her mind go blank.

“I’m poisoned? How can I be poisoned? Impossible!”

Her food was controlled by her servant. That servant had followed her for more than ten years. If she wanted to harm her, she would not have waited until now.

The only possibility was that Cheng Hai had poisoned her.

No wonder!

No wonder he almost fulfilled her every request. So, this was his motive for pleasing her!

She shook her head repeatedly, unable to believe that this was her outcome.

She thought that Cheng Hai was touched by her infatuation. She did not expect him to drag her to hell!

Chu Sihan said coldly, “The poison has already seeped into your bones. After you return, arrange for your funeral properly.”

Everything was decided by the heavens. Whatever was planted would bear fruit.

Cai Xue deserved her fate today.

Fu Xianyun sighed softly and asked someone to bury Cheng Hai, his wife, and his daughter together.

As for Cai Xue, she was sent back to Hua Xiang Village.

It was said that after Cai Xue died, her assets were stolen by her relatives, and even her house was occupied. As for Cai Xue, no one even built a proper grave for her and she was only carelessly buried at the back of Hua Xiang Village.

The villagers who had been bullied by her before were elated by this outcome.

Of course, this was all in the future.

The next day, after the truth of the case was released, everyone could not help but sigh.

However, there was another suspicious point about this case.

The coroner once said that the mother-daughter pair died around 7 pm. However, the villagers said that Cheng Hai was still drinking with Cai Xue in the courtyard of the Cai Mansion.

Although it was not long to travel from town to Hua Xiang Village, it still required some time.

Since Cheng Hai was the murderer, who was the person drinking with Cai Xue?

Unless Cheng Hai had the cloning technique, this did not make sense.

Lu Sheng frowned slightly. She suddenly remembered that the little mute in the alley also had the surname ‘Cheng.’

Could there be a connection?

“Miss Lu, what are you thinking?”

Shi Yi saw that she had fallen silent after leaving the office and could not help but be curious.

Lu Sheng shook her head. “Nothing. I just don’t understand something.”

“What do you not understand?” Chu Sihan asked softly.

Lu Sheng pondered and said, “The coroner said that the mother-daughter pair was murdered around 7 pm. However, all the villagers in Hua Xiang Village said that Cheng Hai and Cai Xue were drinking at that time. Don’t you think there’s something strange about this?”

“I also think that this matter is a bit strange,” Yun Ting said in a low voice. “If it’s really as the villagers said, then who was the person drinking with Cai Xue back then?”

He did not think that Chu Sihan would make a wrong judgment. Chu Sihan had never made a mistake in any case.

Shi Yi frowned. “It’s one thing for a villager to say that he saw him, but so many villagers said that they saw him. Could it be fake?”

When Chu Yun heard this, he suddenly said, “I’ve been to the Cai Mansion with Constable Wang before. The Cai Mansion is quite big and there’s a wall as tall as the height of two people outside.”
