Until Ye Lingyue moved to this remote courtyard, the old lady never saw her again.
Seeing her dying alone in such a place now, the old matriarch couldn't help but feel a little ashamed when he thought of his late senior sister, the mistress of the Ye family.
She secretly thought a few times in her heart, and said to herself, if Ye Lingyue really died, she should be buried properly.
If he didn't die, he had to make up for her, at least he couldn't ignore her completely.
The old lady Chu thought to herself, and walked straight towards the dark room.
Before approaching the room, a white shadow suddenly staggered out from inside.
The white shadow stumbled and fell to the ground.
"Help, help!"
"Protect the old lady!"
A group of guards were vigilant and surrounded the old matriarch, trying to take down the man.
"Old Madam, save me quickly."
The white shadow raised his face, saw the old matriarch, his eyes lit up with hope.
A frightened and terrified little face came into view.
"Ling Yue?"
The old lady Chu and the guards were all stunned.
When Chu Qin saw that the person was Ye Lingyue, the corners of her mouth twitched fiercely.
Why is this dead girl still alive? Doesn't it mean that she is already dead
"Ling Yue, why are you here? It doesn't mean that you have..."
The old lady raised her eyes and saw a dead body hanging upright on the beam in the open room.
His eyes were turned out, his tongue was stiff, and the one hanging on the beam was Butler Ji.
Everyone was surprised.
It's not that the person who committed suicide was Ye Lingyue, how could she become Steward Ji in the blink of an eye.
"Old Madam, Steward Ji wanted to strangle me to death, but she didn't know that my life should be killed, so she woke up. Seeing her deeds revealed, she hanged herself."
Ye Lingyue was sobbing, the scar on her neck was shocking.
"What's going on here? Why did Butler Ji harm you?"
When Mrs. Chu saw the rope around Steward Ji's neck, her face became gloomy.
That is not an ordinary rope, but a soul rope.
The marks on Ye Lingyue's neck were also the same size as the ecstasy rope.
Ye Lingyue is poor and white, so it is naturally impossible for her to search for such a magic weapon. She does not know the power of heaven, and it is impossible for her to kill a one-seal warrior like Steward Ji.
The old matriarch glanced at the guards who had tipped off the news earlier.
"Taijun, we don't know anything. It was Steward Ji who went to check the body, and she ordered us and the maid Xiaotong to inform you and the others. Xiaotong can testify."
Several guards were also at a loss.
When they came, they saw Miss Ye lying on the ground.
Although Miss Ye is not valued in the Chu family, everyone knows that she is the young master's fiancée, and because of the difference between men and women, whoever dares to come forward for a body check will be done by Xiao Tong and Butler Ji.
They were just running errands.
"Go and find the maidservant, Xiaotong."
The old lady Chu passed on the order, but it didn't take long before there was another news.
Xiao Tong disappeared, and the last time someone saw her was in Miss Biao's courtyard. She was humiliated by the young master's guard, Bai Yan, and then disappeared, and no one saw where she went.
"Go and call the young master and Miss Cousin over."
The old lady Chu's face became more and more ugly.
Her birthday is approaching, and this kind of thing suddenly happened in the always peaceful Chu Mansion, so she must investigate clearly.
While waiting for Chu Mu and Ji Linlang to come, Mrs. Chu asked Ye Lingyue carefully.
Ye Lingyue still looked shocked, twitching softly from time to time.
In order to attract Chu Mu's attention, she listened to the maidservant Xiaotong's suggestion, and wanted to pretend to hang herself, just to attract Chu Mu to see her.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Tong secretly changed the rope and gave herself a ecstasy rope. Fortunately, she found out in time and changed the rope secretly.
She wanted to repeat the old trick and attract Chu Mu.
Unexpectedly, Butler Ji had already brought someone here, but Butler Ji deliberately dismissed the others...
"Nonsense, you are a shabby household, why does Steward Ji plot against you?"
After hearing this, Chu Qinshi was the first to express his disbelief.
She was full of disdain.
This girl is ugly and useless, she will only cry when things happen, but Steward Ji is an old servant of the Chu family, and also her nanny when she was a child, and married into the Chu family with her.
Chu Qin didn't believe that she was plotting against Ye Lingyue.
After listening to the old lady Chu, she also felt that there were many doubts about this matter.
Especially, if Steward Ji really wanted to kill Ye Lingyue, she was enough to put Ye Lingyue to death just now, so why did she commit suicide instead
Also, Steward Ji and Ye Lingyue had no grievances, so why did they kill Ye Lingyue
"Old Madam, you must believe me. Butler Ji thought I was dead, so he searched me and took away my necklace. If you don't believe me, you can do a search."
Ye Lingyue's face was pale, and her thin shoulders kept trembling, as if she would faint at any moment.
The old lady Chu immediately ordered someone to search, and sure enough, a necklace was found on Steward Ji's body.
"That necklace, I have been wearing it all the time, Taijun, you must have an impression. It is Yue'er's only necklace. It is not a precious magic weapon, but it is very important to Yue'er. It is because it is Yue'er's enemy Yue'er always wears it as a keepsake, just to remind herself not to forget her family feud."
Ye Lingyue's tear-stained face was full of pain and despair.
Butler Ji thought that the necklace was some kind of magic weapon.
In fact, "Ye Lingyue" always wears the necklace by her side, not because of its preciousness, but because of its special meaning.
"Is there such a thing?"
The old lady took the necklace and took a look.
Seeing this, the old lady's complexion changed slightly.
"Star River Stone?"
This seemingly expensive necklace is a symbol of identity, and the emerald green gemstone on it is a special stone that can only be produced by the Xinghe family.
This kind of stone is not worth much if it is not carved, but if it is carved and becomes an inscription, it will be a very special magic weapon of memory.
As for the Xinghe family, in the thirty-three days, it is also an existence that should not be underestimated.
The Xinghe family originally belonged to the Lanhai Realm, but about 50,000 years ago, it broke away from the Lanhai Realm and became an extraterrestrial force.
Its current patriarch, Old Ancestor Xinghe, also exists with seven seals, and his strength is even higher than that of Old Madam Chu.
In recent years, the strength of Xinghe's ancestor has greatly increased. It is rumored that the Xinghe family has begun to counterattack the Lanhai world. Today's Lanhai world can be said to be the Xinghe family's backyard.
On the one hand, it is the ancestor Xinghe who is in the limelight, and on the other hand, it is Ye Lingyue who can't even gather the seal of the sky
The gap between the two can be clearly seen by anyone who is not blind.
Before what happened tonight, the Qin family, including the old lady Chu, only knew that Ye Lingyue fled to the Chu mansion, but they didn't know that Ye Lingyue still had a deep hatred behind her.
