Zhao Yuanxun's mood was extremely complicated.

Although the two younger brothers were concubines, they were still biological brothers. He was the heir apparent, and he had always regarded his two younger brothers as his responsibilities until he was young. Later, conflicts gradually arose and the family was separated. He signed a document of severance with Zhao Yuankun, but he

I still have feelings for my brother in my heart.

Now seeing him die like this, he felt bad.

Although Zhao Yuanxun worked as a civil servant in Dali Temple, he had come into contact with many files, and he knew more or less how to investigate cases.

Although he didn't take a closer look just now, he intuitively felt that Zhao Yuankun's death was unusual.

Zhu has slept with Zhao Yuanxun for more than ten years and knows him best.

Originally, the relationship between the two houses was severed, and it was her brother-in-law who died in a very dishonorable way, so she didn't have to come. She was just worried that Zhao Yuanxun would make some wrong decision out of consideration for brotherly love, and that her relationship with the Su family would be ruined.

The layout fell short.

Although she couldn't find anything on her head no matter how hard she checked, Su was not a good person either. But she felt that people like Zhao Yuankun were not worthy of her husband running for him. As a woman, she also sympathized with Su. If she could help her,

Of course I want to help.

Therefore, she said before Zhao Yuanxun could speak: "Yes. If this matter spreads, not only will we lose the shame to go out for a walk, but the uncle's official position will be unable to do so, and the marriages of the entire family's children will be affected."

Zhao Yuanxun was still hesitant at first, but after hearing the last sentence, he immediately gave up the idea of ​​reporting to the official.

As long as the relationship between the two brothers was okay, he would not only care about the child and ignore his brother's grievances. But Zhao Yuankun was too disappointed in him.

For such a person, the children's marriages will be affected, especially since his daughter Zhao Ruxi is so promising. If Zhao Yuankun can no longer marry because of being criticized, Zhao Yuanxun feels that he will definitely die of vomiting.

He nodded and bowed his hands to the clan leader: "Grandpa Seventh is right. If word of this spreads, not only will our entire clan be disgraced, but Yu Yuankun will also gain nothing. In this case, let's just bury him."

Su's heart had already risen to her throat. When she heard Zhao Yuanxun's words, her heart finally dropped to the ground. She suddenly felt that all the strength in her body had been sucked away, and she could no longer straighten her waist.

However, she was not needed for the burial of Zhao Yuankun and Aunt Wu. The housekeeper, the boy and the four maids went in to bury Zhao Yuankun and Aunt Wu respectively. She only needed to sit there and cry sadly.

Mrs. Zhu pretended to comfort her from the side: "Three younger siblings, don't be too sad. You still have Brother Ning and Sister Shan. For the sake of your two children, you have to support the family well and take care of yourself.

"

Su Shi fell down and lay on Zhu Shi's shoulder with a headache and cried: "Sister-in-law, why is my life so miserable? My husband is gone like this, what should I do in the future?"

It's not that she was acting, but she was really sad.

She was sincere to Zhao Yuankun, but in the end Zhao Yuankun wanted to kill her, forcing her to murder her husband.

Now that she was a widow and her son was still young, she was terrified at the thought of having to support the family alone.

Mrs. Zhu patted her on the back and said: "Although we have signed the severance document, we are still one family and we are not far apart. In addition to our family, there are many people in the clan. If there is any difficulty, just ask someone to find it."

Me, or find the clan leader, and we will support you."

"Yes." The clan leader was forced to express his opinion after Zhu said this, "If you have any difficulties, just tell the clan. You still have Brother Ning, train him well. When he grows up in a few years, your life will be easier.

.”

In his opinion, the Su family has such a house, a generous dowry, no worries about food and clothing, and a son to rely on; even though the third bedroom has broken up with the eldest bedroom, according to the temperaments of Zhao Yuanxun and Zhu,

He is not someone who would just sit back and watch the matter of the third wife. The Su family is already better than many people.

There are also widows and orphans in the clan, and life is difficult.

At the other end, Zhao Yuanxun had already asked Liu Quan to invite the Taoist priest. In the afternoon, the third room held a ritual ceremony.

The clan leader saw that the funeral affairs were being organized in an orderly manner under the supervision of Zhao Yuanxun and his wife, and then returned to the clan.

Although Zhao Yuankun was beaten up last time, he is still young and strong. After recovering from his injuries for a while, his health is no longer serious. Except for a slight limp on his feet, there are no root causes of the disease.

He died suddenly at this moment, and the clan leader also knew that if the reasons were not explained clearly, and the clan members would make random guesses and spread the word, the matter would end badly. Especially with the various connections Zhao Yuankun operated outside, it was inevitable that there would be few true brothers. If they

If we pursue the case and ask for the coffin to be opened for autopsy, nothing can be covered.

When he came back from the third room, he called the heads of each family. While announcing the death of Zhao Yuankun, he vaguely revealed the cause of Zhao Yuankun's death and told everyone not to spread it, and the women and children in the family should not tell them.

It concerns the face of the entire Zhao family, so the clan members will naturally not talk nonsense. Moreover, in order to make Su's death more natural, Zhao Yuankun changed his previous unfeminine appearance and pampered his two concubines.

Now that he had gone too far and died like this, everyone didn't think it was unexpected or had any suspicion. Especially Zhao Yuanxun did not raise any objection to the cause of Zhao Yuankun's death.

Although everyone thinks that Zhao Yuanxun is a bit incompetent and not as good as Zhao Yuankun in digging camps, his character is recognized by everyone.

The Taoist priests held a ritual ceremony for three days, and then Zhao Yuankun was buried.

Naturally, Aunt Wu was not qualified to be buried in the Zhao family's ancestral grave. The patriarch hated her for causing the Zhao family to lose a young talent, so he hinted to Su and asked her to throw Aunt Wu directly into a mass grave.

Su had something in her heart. Although Aunt Wu was not a good person, she died because of her. So she still asked someone to build a thin coffin and chose a piece of land to bury Aunt Wu properly.

After that, Sanfang performed rituals for several more days before the situation calmed down.

Because the cause of Zhao Yuankun's death was disgraceful, his funeral was kept simple and his clan members did not spread the news. The connections Zhao Yuankun operated outside were never introduced to the Su family, allowing the Su family to interact with their female relatives. Therefore, those people did not wait until six months after Zhao Yuankun's death.

, seven days later, he was not seen walking around, so he sent a servant to inquire, and then he learned the news of his death.

These friends have nothing more than a relationship of interest with Zhao Yuankun. They are good friends with him because they think he has a flexible mind, strong ability, and will be able to stand out in the future. Now that everyone is dead, they can't waste their money and spend it.

They have a lot of money to investigate the cause of Zhao Yuankun's death, and they won't meddle in other people's affairs. Therefore, most people will forget about it and won't delve into it.

There were one or two people who had a close friendship with Zhao Yuankun, so they sent people to inquire about the Zhao family, and the final news they got was that Ma Feng was the real one, and everyone had the same opinion.
