Su Li glanced over. In the matter of the previous framing, Shangguan Yao and Su Qianyue had already been locked in the Ancestral Hall.
It looked like the matter of the two locking up the ancestral hall was already a thing of the past.
”Su Li, is this how you treat your mother?” Shangguan Yao then revealed his identity as the owner of the house.
”My mother died a long time ago when she risked her life to save the Emperor.”
”You …” Shangguan Yao's face became ugly, after going through a few changes, he swallowed his resentment, and stared straight at Su Li, ”The past matters were all because of me, so if you want to blame me, blame me for it, but Yue'er is your blood related sister, you can't just continue to see her bad reputation, right?”
”What do you want me to do?”
”As long as you are at peace with Yue'er in front of outsiders, all of the disputes from the past will naturally disappear.”
”Why did your mother come to find me?” I am just a Fifth Prince's Wife. Isn't there a Crown Prince's Wife within the General's Mansion? At least it's better for her to step forward than for me. ”
Shangguan Yao clenched her teeth. Why didn't she want to use Su Qianyan?
However, the old lady had protected Su Qianyan well, and the Great General had warned her several times that she could not have any ideas about Su Qianyan.
”Mother, please get out of my way. I need to go back to Fifth Prince's Mansion so that my horse won't be frightened and kick you.” Su Li didn't want to waste his time with her, so he gestured to Stars Pet Chain Supermarket and they immediately patted their horses. The horses started galloping.
Shangguan Yao dodged, and his entire body fell on the ground in a sorry state.
Looking at the distant carriage, she was so angry that her nose was crooked.
After returning to the palace, Stars Pet Chain Supermarket returned to the medical hall.
Hei Qi brought over a hundred Vanguard Army s and surrounded the entire place. Every two meters, there would be someone standing guard inside.
Liu Chongming stayed in the front hall, his face no longer filled with the despair that death was upon him. It was as if he was completely at ease with the defenses that Mo Lianjin had set up.
”Where's Mo Lianjin?” Su Li did not see any trace of him.
”Fifth Prince has personally gone to search the whereabouts of the culprit. He should be back soon.” Liu Chongming replied.
Sure enough, Mo Lianjin came back at dinner time.
His expression was cold, without a trace of superfluous emotion.
”What is it? Is there no clue to the murderer? ” Su Li asked.
Mo Lianjin slightly nodded, ”I've searched through and found no useful leads.”
”It's fine. Since the time interval between the murders is five days, he will definitely appear tomorrow.”
Su Li looked at Vanguard Army outside, she wanted to see, with such a dense defense, how would the culprit succeed?
After dinner, Mo Lianjin told Su Li to go to sleep, and he would guard Liu Chongming all night.
Su Li accompanied him for a while. When he could not take it anymore, he went back to sleep.
The next day, he woke up to the pitter-patter of rain outside.
Liu Chongming's head was still growing on his neck.
During breakfast, Su Li asked Mo Lianjin, ”Are you not going out for the entire day?”
”Yes.”
Su Li nodded his head, ”It's also good to be on standby, I will go out for a trip later. On the fifteenth day is Grandmother's birthday, I did not break all relations with her, and I must go back to General's Mansion. So, I need to prepare a birthday present for her.”
”I'll go with you tomorrow.”
”It's better if I go today. I don't know what kind of trouble will occur tomorrow.”
Mo Lianjin did not force her any further, and coincidentally, Zhu Qian walked out from inside, ”ugly big sister is going out to buy something? Other than loving to pester Feng Jiu, what I love the most is to buy things. ”
”Then let's go together.” Su Li smiled and nodded at her.
