2159 Can’t accept it
Gu Xin stood up and helped the crown prince’s wife up with Bai Shiying, ” “My lady, my condolences!”
Zhang Shi turned her head and cried as she hugged her daughter.
After returning from Gu Xin’s place in the afternoon, Zhang Shi had been feeling uneasy. She couldn’t even calm her mind when she was copying scriptures. She couldn’t even sleep and didn’t eat much for dinner. It was only when Constable Gao and his men went to look for her that her heart skipped a beat.
And then there was the news that she couldn’t accept.
Actually, she didn’t believe it. She cried and screamed, hoping that she was dreaming.
However, her son’s body was lying on the wooden board, so she had no choice but to believe it.
She wanted to look for Gu Xin. She wanted Gu Xin to help her find the murderer. She also hoped that Gu Xin would say that she was wrong and that the man was not her son.
Until Gu Xin expressed her condolences.
She knew it was true. Her son was gone. Her own son was gone. How could her son be gone?
Bai Shiying also hugged Zhang Shi and gently patted her back. His own tears could not stop flowing.
She was the first daughter in the family. She had three brothers, but the one who treated her the best was her brother.
They had quarreled in March. She was angry with her brother and ignored him for a man she had not known for long. She thought that her brother would comfort her, or that she could not help but make peace with him, just like how she had been angry many times in the past.
However, the truth was different. It was completely different. She no longer had the chance to let her brother coax her, and she no longer had the chance to reconcile with her brother.
Her brother was gone.
The more Bai Shiying cried, the sadder she became. The more she cried, the more she felt that she had been insensible before. She wanted to give herself a few slaps.
However, her brother’s body was lying there. No matter what she did, he would not come back.
When the people from the other branches arrived, they saw the mother and daughter crying. At first, they didn’t believe it. Now, not only did they see the corpse, but they also saw the mother and daughter crying. They finally believed it.
Bai Shijie was dead.
The last one to arrive was the princess Consort. She did not cry like Zhang Shi and Bai Shiying, but the expression on her face was not good.
Her old man had just died, and now her eldest grandson was gone. No old lady would be able to accept this.
She even cast a suspicious look at her second son. Not only her, even the fourth master, his wife, the second and third master Bai, the fifth and sixth master Bai were also suspicious of the second master Bai.
Bai Baozhu was the most obvious. If it wasn’t for the Zhang mother and daughter crying, the princess Consort’s expression not looking good, and Gu Xin by the side, Bai Baozhu would have rushed up to question the second elder Bai.
The second elder was annoyed by the looks. He wanted to say something but the third elder quickly stopped himself.
Gu Xin felt a little regretful. She didn’t say anything because she wanted to wait for these people to cause a scene. In the end, they didn’t cause a scene and she couldn’t get more information. She could only ask everyone to sit down.
With all the members of the Bai family present, the hall in Bai Shijie’s house seemed a little crowded.
Gu Xin said, ” I’ve arranged for at least ten people to guard each courtyard. Two or two of them can be seen. Even so, someone still managed to enter master Xiao’s study to kill him. That’s really something. Everyone, I’m sure you’ve all seen the body of the eldest young master. The eldest young master has not been ill or ill for the past few years, so you shouldn’t think that he died of illness, right?”
The second elder took the lead. who knows if your people are slacking off and let the thief in? or if the murderer is someone from Shijie’s courtyard.
