Their Lucky Star Was Transmigrated! Chapter 570: I don’t believe him!
When Duke Changle heard Xu Shuo's words, his brows furrowed, and he looked at Duke Yong'an. The two made eye contact in an instant.
As for Xu Yuanzu, Duke Antai, who had just taken the throne, at this time, he was excluded by the two of them.
The old lady Xu was poisoned, and there were many doubts about Xu Yuanzu.
When it was necessary to agree to the outside world, Duke Changle and Duke Yongan didn't mind joining forces with Xu Yuanzu. But this did not mean that the two accepted Xu Yuanzu as one of the three princes of the Xu family.
"Come in!"
The Duke of Changle and the Duke of Yong'an have reached a consensus, and naturally they will no longer prevent Xu Shuo from entering the Xu residence to pay homage to Mrs. Xu.
Xu Yuanzu wanted to stop him, but he was soft-spoken.
Although he is also a prince now, in terms of seniority, there are two generations behind Duke Changle and Duke Yongan.
The gap in seniority, in many cases, often also represents the right to speak.
When Xu Shuo entered the Xu residence, Duke Changle and Duke Yongan first led him to pay homage to Mrs. Xu, and then went to the living room of Xu residence.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
The Duke of Changle sat down and looked at Xu Shuo.
Xu Shuo sighed and said: "When I received the news, I brought people back to Beijing as soon as possible. But when I arrived at Dongzhao Mansion and entered Hejing County, someone attacked my team returning to Beijing. ."
"The bodyguards who followed me back to Beijing were shot off as soon as they met."
"And I was directly caught by them with a fishing net!"
"And then I was locked up, eating and drinking, bathing every day until I was released!"
What happened to Xu Shuo is not surprising.
On the contrary, his encounter can be said to be too ordinary, and there is no thrill at all.
After hearing Xu Shuo's words, both Changle and Yongan's expressions changed.
Sharpshooter!
At the beginning, when Xu Huairen was still the Duke of Antai, his two sons had accidents one after another in Xiangyi Mansion. At that time, the cause of all the incidents was that people from Xu Mansion were shot and killed outside Lingshui Village.
"It seems that someone is really eyeing us!"
Changle Gong and Yongan Gong have reached a consensus at this moment.
First the line of An Taigong, then the old lady Xu, who should be next?
"Can I ask, is something wrong?"
Xu Yuanzu was also present, but his expression was dazed. After listening to what Dingguo Xu Shuo said, he didn't see anyone's intention to target Xu Fu at all.
"The ancestor, you inherited the title of Duke Antai, there are some things you really should know."
Mr. Yong An immediately opened his mouth and explained the ins and outs of the matter.
"It's all about these marksmen!"
"Unfortunately, until now, we don't know which faction these marksmen belong to, and why are they targeting our Xu residence!"
"Well, why must it be aimed at Xu Mansion?"
Xu Yuanzu blinked, "From the very beginning, it was the line of Duke Antai, strictly speaking, the line of the old lady!"
"Then, why did the two uncles determine that the other party was targeting our Xu family, rather than simply targeting the old lady?"
"This?!"
Hearing Xu Yuanzu's analysis, Duke Changle and Duke Yong'an were a little stunned and didn't know how to answer this question.
On the contrary, Xu Shuo chuckled and said: "If the other party is targeting my mother's line, then why do you think the other party will let me back?"
"Wouldn't it be better to just kill me?"
"Yes!"
"Original ancestor, how should I explain this?"
The Duke of Changle looked at Xu Yuanzu, who was also stunned.
Indeed, if it's just for Old Lady Xu, then there's no reason not to kill Xu Shuo.
For a moment, the four people in the room fell silent.
Then the silence was quickly broken again.
A steward from the Xu residence came and brought some very serious news.
The eldest princess was authorized by Emperor Yongping to be in charge of the Huangcheng Division. Now the people of the Huangcheng Division are outside the door of the Xu mansion, and Xu Yuanzu, the Duke of Antai, is invited to the Huangcheng Division to cooperate with the investigation.
"Investigate? What case?"
Xu Shuo looked directly at the steward.
"Back to Ding Guogong, the messenger from the Imperial City Division said that there are some problems in the death of the old lady that need the help of An Taigong to investigate!"
"My mother's case!"
Xu Shuo stood up and his eyes fell on Xu Yuanzu, "You hurt my mother?"
"I didn't!"
Xu Yuanzu's denial was straightforward, and the expression on his face was flawless.
But Xu Shuo doesn't believe him now!
Xu Shuo has been a husband and wife with the eldest princess for so many years. Although he is not as good as a dog in front of the eldest princess, he knows that the eldest princess always likes to act according to decisions.
Since she had someone take Xu Yuanzu back to the Imperial City Division, it means that she already has some clues in her hands.
In other words, even if the death of his mother Xu Laotaijun was not under the hands of Xu Yuanzu, Xu Yuanzu was definitely involved, or knew something.
Of course, the most important thing is that Xu Yuanzu was just a mud-legged man from Xujiazhuang in the Weihe River. Why was his mother selected as the successor of Duke Antai?
At the beginning, I didn't inherit the title of Duke Antai, which was a shame Xu Shuo could never let go of.
Nowadays, a man with mud legs can inherit the title of Duke Antai, which makes Xu Shuo even more uneasy.
"Uncle-grandfather, the old lady has a kindness for me. If I hurt the old lady, I will be struck by lightning, and I will not die!"
"Humph!"
Facing Xu Yuanzu's oath, Xu Shuo just snorted coldly, he didn't believe these oaths. He also made a lot of oaths, and in the end, what if he broke the oath?
Today, there are no eyes.
"Three uncles and grandfathers, let me retire first!"
Xu Yuanzu got up, saluted Duke Changle, Duke Yong'an, and Xu Shuo, and then left with the manager of the Xu residence to see the officers of the Imperial City Company, ready to meet the eldest princess to prove his innocence.
When Xu Yuanzu left, Xu Shuo looked at Duke Changle and Duke Yongan, and said solemnly, "Two brothers, I don't believe him!"
"We don't believe it either!"
On this issue, Duke Changle and Duke Yongan have a rare agreement with Xu Shuo.
"Can the two brothers send someone to check his origin?"
The Duke of Changle nodded and said, "He has already sent someone to Xujiazhuang, but he hasn't come back yet, so we don't know much more about him than you!"
Yongan Gong followed and said, "However, this person should not be underestimated."
"That's right, it's only been a few days, and many people in this manor already have a good opinion of him. If we come back later, the head of the manor in this manor will be him!"
When Duke Changle thought about the scene he had just returned to the mansion, his impression of Xu Yuanzu became even worse.
"Two brothers, don't you think it's strange?"
"He was a mud leg from Xujiazhuang, how could he be able to directly take Yuan Zhen's title?"
