"What Miss Nine wants to know, you can ask me now..."
Chang's eyes were red and looked at Qin Wan, Pang Jiayun hugged Chang's eyes blankly, half of her body was about to shrink behind Chang's, Qin Wan looked at the mother and daughter, moved her lips, but was surprised for a moment. Can't bear it.
Seeing Qin Wan's thoughts, Chang's lips curled into a bitter smile, "Don't worry, Miss Nine, Yun'er doesn't know what we're talking about..."
Having said that, Qin Wan's heart tightened even more. Facing Chang's painful eyes, she couldn't speak a word, "I... I'm just... how is Miss Pang..."
Qin Wanchu's doubts are now 90% clear. She doesn't know what else she can ask. Chang's arms holding Pang Jiayun slightly tightened, and after a while, she said in a hoarse voice, "Jiu girl saw this little girl Is it a building? This small building is the most exquisite building in the whole mansion. I heard that it was used to live in a certain prince and princess. After Jiayun was nine years old, she was arranged to live here alone. Exquisite and gorgeous, but a little remote, I don't want to at all, but... But I don't have the right to speak in this mansion, Yun'er has a special status in this mansion, I originally thought, I don't want the Pang family to treat her as one of my own, just provide It's enough to give her her glory, but... but I think it's too bad... "
Having said that, Chang looked at the open window, and before two cups of tea, Pang Yiwen jumped down from there.
"This place has become Yun'er's nightmare, and Pang Yiwen, that bastard, actually did something inferior to Yun'er when I went out for three days at a time. When I came back, Yun'er's spirit was a little bit out of order, and everyone in Pang's mansion was shocked." Keeping this from me, I don't know why, but I found those traces on Yuner's body... "
At this point, Chang's eyes were wet and a tear rolled down, "I wanted to report to the government, but Pang Fuliang threatened Yun'er's life. At that time, the Pang family was already one of the richest in Northwest China, but Chang's quickly I have nothing to do, not to mention Jiayan, and Yun'er can't be healed, and her mind is completely messed up. For so many years, Jiayun has been locked up in the north backyard like a prisoner. If I obey, I will I can see her, if I don't obey, I won't see her for two or three months."
Chang's tears flowed like jade, and Pang Jiayun on the side only hugged Chang's tightly, but she didn't seem to notice Chang's sadness at all. Chang turned her eyes and held Pang Jiayun's face lovingly with both hands, "These years, I have I just watched Yun'er live ignorantly, only crying and screaming when she was dreaming, and then I thought Yun'er was sick and that beast would never come back... But I didn't expect... "
Chang was crying pitifully, but Pang Jiayun still had no expression on her face.
Qin Wan's heart was heavier than ever. Looking at Chang Shi who was crying into tears, Qin Wan was even a little angry, but she was not Chang Shi, so she couldn't empathize with her, and she couldn't ask her why she didn't fight to the death. She only looked at Pang Jiayun's clear and beautiful face. Pang Jiayun was at the age of cardamom, and she should have been a lively and delicate existence, but at this moment, there was no emotion on that face except for her dependence on Chang's.
"Madam, do you want to report to the government now?"
Mrs. Chang shook her head, "Pang Yiwen... Pang Yiwen has suffered retribution, this matter... let the nine girls know about it."
Qin Wan hesitated to speak, her daughter had suffered so much, and Chang herself was brutally beaten by Pang Fuliang, so she didn't want to leave Pang's mansion even now
Even if Pang Yiwen is dead, but Pang Jiayun has become like this, no matter it is because of her own or her daughter's insanity, Qin Wan can't imagine that she can live with Pang Fuliang for the rest of her life.
"Hasn't Madam thought about going to the government to reconcile?" Qin Wan thought for a while before asking.
Chang was slightly stunned for a moment, her eyes seemed to be confused, and then she suddenly asked Qin Wan, "Will the official uniform take care of the Pang family's housework?"
The corners of Qin Wan's lips twitched, but she couldn't say anything affirmative. Even if there was a reason for reconciliation, there were still very few people in Da Zhou who could really reconcile. Although she knew that the Pang family was the richest man in the Northwest, she didn't know how to beat Pang Fuliang. How powerful is she, so she can't give Chang's affirmative answer...
Seeing Qin Wan's hesitation, Chang said again, "Will the government arrest the murderer?"
Qin Wan frowned immediately, "What do you mean Ma'am?" After a slight pause, Qin Wan nodded affirmatively, "That's for sure, the murderer will definitely be arrested..."
Chang seems to be relieved, "In this case, why should I report to the government?"
Qin Wan's heart skipped a beat, "What do you mean by Madam's words? Madam is saying that Master Pang will be arrested?"
Chang looked at Qin Wan for a moment, but quickly lowered her head as if thinking of something. She was obviously a little scared. Qin Wan couldn't help but took a step forward, "Does Madam know something?"
Chang raised her eyes, hesitated to speak, "Ninth Miss..."
Her tone was full of hesitation, Qin Wan hurriedly said, "Madam, don't be afraid, just say what you know."
Mrs. Chang glanced at the stairs, lowered her voice slightly, "I only believe in Miss Nine."
As she said that, Mrs. Chang stepped forward slightly, "The lady who died that day also came here in previous years, and not only that, every time she came to Pang Fuliang in previous years, she would give her a large sum of gold and silver, not just as a reward for double clearing classes. Firstly, the double-clearing class is to deceive people, and second, the double-clearing class has become famous, and it will indeed help in entertainment."
Qin Wan's heart skipped a beat, "When did it start?"
Chang said, "It started from the year I married in..."
"Have you never missed it?"
Chang shook her head affirmatively, "No."
Chang is Pang Fuliang's bedside person, although Pang Fuliang is not good to Chang, but Chang gave birth to Pang Jiayan for Pang Fuliang, and outside, Pang Fuliang still maintains the illusion of harmony between husband and wife, so Chang does have a chance Knowing more than others, Qin Wan took a deep breath, "So what about this time?"
Chang's eyes flickered, as if thinking about it, "This time, the person came here to make it clear that he knew of Qingli's death and came to ask for an explanation. Not only that, but this time the person also suspected that Qingli's death was caused by Pang Fuliang. hand?"
"Why do you have this suspicion?"
Chang pursed her lips and looked at Pang Jiayan, "Jiayan, tell me."
Pang Jiayan, who had been standing by Qingniang's side all this time, walked over, walked to Chang's side, looked at Qin Wan and said, "That day I heard my father and that lady quarreling, and I heard that lady talk to my father about it. Shifang Inn, my father would not allow it, but the lady said that my father would not allow it, and the lady would ruin my father's reputation... "
Qin Wan's heart suddenly rose, ruined? !
"Did the lady say something, why was she ruined?"
Pang Jiayan tilted his head and thought for a while, "No, I'm standing outside, so I can't eavesdrop for a long time..."
Having said that, Pang Jiayan said again, "It seems to mean... how much gold my father owes her..."
gold? ! Qin Wan immediately held his breath... If it was related to gold, wouldn't it mean the gold robbery? !
"What happened next?" Qin Wan asked anxiously.
Pang Jiayan shook his head, "I left after that..."
Qin Wan's heart was beating in a hurry. She thought that Pang Jiayan must have heard more, but she didn't expect Pang Jiayan's answer to be like this. She felt a little disappointed in her heart, and turned to look at Chang, "So... madam thinks that Master Pang and that What conflicts of interest exist between the ladies?"
Mrs. Chang nodded hurriedly, "Pang Fuliang was born in a humble family. In the early years, his family opened a martial arts gym. Later, when the martial arts hall closed down, he couldn't make ends meet. Then he got a windfall from somewhere, and then he started doing business. It was a small business at first. This business will grow bigger and bigger in the future, and I don't know what shady means are used. I guess that person not only has an interest dispute with him, but also holds his secret, so he said those things that would ruin his reputation. "
As she said that, Chang said again, "And this Mr. Liu..."
When Qin Wan heard this, she quickly raised her heart, and Chang said, "I don't know how Pang Fuliang told the government. Anyway, since I married into the Pang family, I have known about the existence of Mr. Liu. At that time, Mr. Liu was still in the east. Being an official is far away from here, but he would come once every three or two years. Pang Fuliang thought I didn't know, but I knew that every time he came, he would give Mr. Liu a lot of gold and silver. The smooth journey above is probably due to the money and silver he gave."
Qin Wan's back felt tense when he heard this, and the speculation in his heart was more and more confirmed.
"That was eleven years ago?"
Qin Wan hurriedly asked, and Chang nodded quickly.
Qin Wan frowned immediately, "Liu Yun is from Dingzhou, and Master Pang is also from Dingzhou?"
Mrs. Chang shook her head, "I don't know Mr. Liu's net worth, I only know that he was in and out of the mansion in the early years. At that time, his official position was not high. I wondered why Master Pang dealt with such a person, and why he was so vigorous. support."
"What about this time?"
When Qin Wan asked, Chang said, "I only know that after that lady died, he was very angry with Liu Yuntong for two days. Qin Shizi doesn't know how to restrain himself."
While talking, Chang said again, "Jiayan, speak for yourself."
Pang Jiayan thought for a while and said, "I only heard from my father and Steward Pang that he was getting more and more dissatisfied with Mr. Liu, that Mr. Liu's appetite for being an official for so long was getting bigger and bigger, and that he was not successful. He was the one who cleaned up the mess, and said that something happened in the mansion this time, Mr. Liu might be the one who did the worst, and he also said that he was afraid, and said that he didn't clean up the things that happened back then."
Qin Wan's palms were already covered with sweat. She looked at Mrs. Chang, then at Pang Jiayan, and said solemnly, "Is what Madam and the third young master said today true?"
Mrs. Chang nodded, then looked down at Pang Jiayan, and Pang Jiayan nodded quickly.
Qin Wan took a deep breath, and then said in a calm voice, "If you are asked to testify to the official uniform one day, how dare you?"
Pang Jiayan was a bit dazed, as if she didn't know what Qin Wan meant. Chang held Pang Jiayun in one hand, and held Pang Jiayan in the other. She looked at the children and daughters around her, and nodded solemnly. ,"dare."
Qin Wan nodded slowly, digesting what she just heard for a moment, then she nodded and said, "Okay, I see, what else can Madam want to tell me?"
The corners of Chang's lips moved a few times, but he didn't say anything more.
Qin Wan nodded, turned around and walked towards the stairs. Qingniang had been standing at the stairs, and when she saw this, she lowered her head in a respectful manner. Qin Wan nodded to Qingniang, and walked quickly down the stairs. But just as he was about to walk down the steps, Qin Wan's eyes flickered and he saw that there was a smear of black ash on Qingniang's skirt, and a hole was burned in the black ash.
She frowned slightly, "Qingniang's skirt is dirty—"
Qing Niang came back to her senses, looked down, her complexion changed slightly.
He hurriedly bowed towards Qin Wan again, "Thank you for reminding me, Miss Jiu, it must have been accidentally stained when I went upstairs."
Qin Wan let out a "hmm" and hurried down the second floor.
On the second floor, Yan Chi and Yan Li were standing, but Wang Huaiyu was nowhere to be seen.
Seeing Qin Wan coming down, Yan Chi took a step forward, "How?"
Qin Wan looked at Yan Chi, then at Yan Li, her voice sank, "Mrs. Pang told me something."
Seeing Yan Chi and Qin Wan's eyes met, Yan Li scratched his head, "What... I'll go down and wait?"
Qin Wan hastily withdrew his eyes and looked at Yan Li. He was hesitating, but Yan Chi didn't see a word. Yan Li blinked at Qin Wan, and jumped downstairs with a smile. Bai Ying and Fu Ling also turned around and stood a few minutes away. Yan Chi looked at the passage between the two wing rooms on the second floor, raised his jaw, and signaled Qin Wan to go inside.
On both sides of the aisle are wing rooms on the second floor, and at the end there is a window. Yan Chi walked to the window and pushed the window open. Immediately, the cold wind with the smell of fire rushed in from outside the window, and the gray air in the room was blown away. After two minutes, Yan Chi looked at Qin Wan. Qin Wan stood still in front of Yan Chi, and after a while, he told Yan Chi exactly what he had just heard.
Wang Huaiyu stood downstairs and sighed, "Master Pang, my condolences."
Said Wang Huaiyu glanced upstairs, "I went up to look just now, and only the young lady hid in the cabinet alone, so there are only two people in this building, the young master and the young lady. At that time, all of us could see clearly. The young lady is on the first floor, so the young master is alone on the third floor, let alone why the young master and the young lady are together, I guess... the young master knew that there was a fire underneath on the third floor, and then opened the window I wanted to look down, but I fell from the top without paying attention... So this led to this tragedy, Master Pang, you..."
Before Wang Huaiyu finished speaking, Pang Fuliang suddenly let go of Pang Yiwen's hand and stood up.
Wang Huaiyu was taken aback, "You..."
Pang Fuliang raised his eyes, took a hard look in the direction of the third floor, and was about to speak when Yan Chi came out from the first floor. Chi walked out and immediately went to meet him.
Yan Chi glanced at Wang Huaiyu, not at Pang Fuliang, but at Pang Youde.
"Take Steward Pang back for a trial."
