Chapter 236: Evidence Lost
"The special envoy was in cahoots with them and deliberately handed the evidence to Gu Qingfeng for custody. He then found an excuse and slipped away."
"On the day they set out to return, they had already colluded in advance and planned to set a trap on the way to surround Gu Qingfeng and his two followers, intending to kill them and destroy the evidence."
"After several rounds of fighting between the two followers, one of them was stabbed several times and died on the spot."
"Gu Qingfeng knew that he was doomed, so he ordered another follower to take the copied evidence and flee to the county town."
"And he fought hard with that group of people, and finally slaughtered them one by one."
"He was also seriously injured and died from excessive blood loss."
"The follower who was carrying the transcribed evidence was also hunted down along the way, and had no choice but to hand the transcribed evidence to an amateur he met along the way."
"In order to divert the group of people, the followers continued to flee, being hit by several arrows on the way and fleeing all the way to the county town."
"After arriving in the county town, he met a group of beggars. He asked the beggars to come over and tell him the letter, but the letter writer couldn't explain the details clearly."
"So we only know that this transcribed evidence was handed over to a man named Shun in Shijing Town."
When the woman Gu Qinglian heard this, she had already burst into tears and sobbed.
When An Yue heard what they said, the death of the original owner's father and mother seemed to fit in.
But she still couldn't understand one thing: Daddy had no relationship with that man, so why would he help him hide it?
Gu Mingchuan said: "That group of people learned that there was a copy, so in order to prevent future troubles, they conducted multiple investigations. I estimate that the information they learned is not much different from what we heard."
"So, for so many years, we have been secretly investigating the cause of this matter."
"Of course, that group of people did not dare to stop for a moment. They would not be at peace until they found the evidence of the transcribed crime."
An Yue questioned Gu Mingchuan, "So you're telling me now, my father and mother died because of that transcribed evidence that has nothing to do with us?"
No one spoke anymore.
An Yue questioned Gu Mingchuan again: "So, the fire in the An family's old house was not an accident, right?"
Gu Mingchuan wanted to explain, but he didn't know how to explain or where to start.
The woman, Gu Qinglian, stepped forward, took An Yue's hand, and said in a sobbing voice, "Miss, we are deeply sorry for the harm this incident has caused you."
An Yue and the original owner's parents did not really get along with each other.
However, this body retains the complete memories of its original owner.
Therefore, the experiences and memories of the original owner are as real as if he had experienced them himself.
At some point, An Yue's eyes were already filled with tears.
The living room was very quiet at this moment, so quiet that you could hear the sound of everyone rubbing their fingers.
After a long while, An Yue wiped her tears and said, "Master Zhubu, Auntie, Mr. Gu, thank you all for your hospitality. I have something important to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."
After An Yue finished speaking, she turned sideways and saluted towards them.
The woman, Gu Qinglian, nodded to Wang Pozi outside the door, and Wang Pozi turned around to get the backpack.
The woman, Gu Qinglian, walked up to An Yue and said to her, "My aunt really likes the floral water you made. We agreed in advance that you must not forget to deliver the floral water to the two shops run by my aunt."
"Of course I won't forget." After saying that, An Yue put on the backpack and left the Zhao Mansion with Wang Po.
After leaving the Zhao Mansion, An Yue walked alone on the street, feeling a little dazed for a moment.
As she walked, she complained, "How come the original owner's ordinary family had to encounter so many inexplicable misfortunes?"
"I was sleeping on the big bed, and while I was sleeping, I somehow traveled to this broken home! So I must be the chosen one!"
An Yue talked to herself, getting angrier and angrier. She raised her foot and kicked the gravel on the ground.
She instantly sat down on the ground in pain, holding her toes and screaming "Ahhhh".
"Are you OK?"
At this moment, a pair of big hands suddenly reached out from behind and supported An Yue.
An Yue turned around and was a little surprised.
She gritted her teeth in pain and asked, "What are you doing here?"
The person who came was Gu Mingchuan.
At this moment, An Yue became angry just looking at him. She quickly stood up and limped forward.
Gu Mingchuan followed behind An Yue and said guiltily, "Aunt is afraid that you will be upset, so she asked me to look after you."
"Don't worry! I don't want to die yet." After saying this, An Yue carried the backpack and walked towards the Yaxing.
Gu Mingchuan didn't say anything else, but just followed An Yue quietly.
An Yue came to the same brokerage shop she had visited last time. The broker saw that it was An Yue and looked around her, but did not see the slave she had bought last time.
She hurriedly stepped forward with a smile: "Hey, it's the girl, please come in quickly."
An Yue nodded to the matchmaker.
"Girl, are you here to buy or sell this time?" the matchmaker asked tentatively.
“Of course I buy it.”
When the matchmaker heard An Yue talking about buying a slave, her face was full of wrinkles with smiles.
"Okay, okay, I wonder what kind of slave the young lady is going to choose this time?"
"A simple and honest male servant who can do farm work will do."
"Yes, yes, yes. Please follow me, young lady." The matchmaker walked in front and led An Yue to the backyard.
Gu Mingchuan suddenly stepped forward and said to the middle-aged woman, "Boss, I have something to say to this girl. Can you please step aside for a moment?"
“This…” The old woman looked at An Yue. Seeing that An Yue didn’t react, she quickly smiled and said, “Well… OK, OK, I’ll come back later.”
After the matchmaker finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards the counter.
"Ms. An Yue, you are so young and have no adults at home. It may not be appropriate for you to buy a male servant back home." Gu Mingchuan kindly reminded her.
An Yue said indifferently without even turning her head: "Don't bother with this matter, young master."
After hearing An Yue's response, Gu Mingchuan stood there in a daze for a few moments.
An Yue was about to go find a matchmaker, but Gu Mingchuan grabbed her arm.
His tone was somewhat deep, and he said to An Yue seriously, "I'm sorry."
An Yue's eyes slowly moved towards Gu Mingchuan, and she pretended to be calm and said, "No need to apologize, please leave quickly, young master."
After learning about the death of her father and mother, An Yue has been trying hard to suppress the anger in her heart.
Gu Mingchuan didn't say anything else, just turned around and walked out of the shop.
The matchmaker came over from the counter with great tact and said, "I will take you there right away."
An Yue nodded and followed the matchmaker.
"Girl, look at these servants. They were just delivered today." The matchmaker introduced them to An Yue.
"This person was sent here from another place. He is eighteen or nineteen years old, which is the age to endure hardships and work."
An Yue looked at it and said nothing.
