Shen Yun helped the old lady who was kneeling on the ground and crying to sit down, then turned to look at Cheng Jinchu.

"Yier, tell me why you suddenly brought up this matter today."

Cheng Jinchu bowed to Shen Yun with an expressionless face.

"Father, I remember you once said that I would never be wronged again, and I believed you.

However, the old lady in this mansion is very old and there are times when I can’t see or take care of things. I’m not saying this to complain. I know, as a daughter, that my grandmother treats me very well.

Therefore, I am talking about this matter today for myself. Of course, it can also be said that it is not for myself. In a small sense, it is for myself, and in a big sense, it is for the entire Shen Mansion. "

Shen Yun looked at Cheng Jinchu in confusion.

"Father, let me tell you what happened today. You don't think Qian is crazy to go to the house, do you?"

Cheng Jinchu knew about the fire over there before. Unlike other people in the Shen Mansion, she knew what was going on over there.

However, she didn't know that the people living there were from the Qian family, or that the person who started the fire was from the Qian family. It just so happened that Shen Yuning mentioned this matter, so she connected the whole thing together.

Don't think that she made up the sentence she said, because it was really said by the princess in the teahouse.

"Did the princess really tell you that?"

Shen Yun asked, Cheng Jinchu sighed and nodded.

"what happened?"

"Some time ago, someone stole all the jewelry from Zhenpinzhai. It caused quite a stir. Do you remember it?"

Yu was the first to nod. She ordered a silver hairpin and a silver bracelet and paid the deposit. But when she went to pick them up that day, all the jewelry in the store was gone.

"I went to pick up the jewelry I ordered, and I saw the boss's wife crying inside the store. Everything was gone. The boss's family lived behind the store, and they said all the banknotes and silver in the house were gone."

"Yes, that's right. The amount of money involved was quite large. You haven't seen the most terrifying thing yet. There should have been a lot of soldiers surrounding the area, right?"

Yu nodded immediately.

"I heard someone was murdered, but I didn't see anything there!"

Cheng Jinchu nodded.

“It was the princess who told me this. She was afraid that I would be scared when she told me this, but she also thought that if such a dangerous person were running around outside, it would not be safe for everyone, so she told me.

At that time, the boss and his family lived behind the store. That night, when the man got up to steal silver and banknotes, he was discovered.

Of course, this was not the first time he stole. The boss noticed that some money was missing, so he was very careful those days. After that, he and his father watched over the man every day. Unexpectedly, they caught the man.

In desperation, the man killed the boss and his son. The noise was so loud that the boss's wife and the boss's mother started quarreling. They got up to check and saw that the man had just stabbed the knife into the old man's body.

The old lady rushed over on the spot and was naturally killed.

When the old lady rushed over, the proprietress ran away immediately. She knew that she would die if she rushed over, and she was also afraid that he would go crazy and kill everyone, so she went to her child's room, picked up the child and ran away.

The old lady probably knew that she was going to commit suicide, and she rushed over to help the boss lady and the others hold the man back. She did hold the man back, otherwise the boss lady and the others would not be able to escape. There was a long bloody drag mark at the scene, and at the end of the drag mark was the old lady's body.

When everyone heard this, their mouths opened wide and their brows frowned.

“I didn’t connect these two events together before. At that time, the princess told me that the man was a thief in the family, the nephew of the owner of Zhenpinzhai.

Well...he is the son of the boss lady's younger brother, who works as a helper in the shop. He likes to gamble. Of course, according to the boss lady, the boy has not gambled since he started helping in the store.

However, they had to investigate carefully, so they still went to the gambling house to check and found out that the boy actually owed two thousand taels of silver and had already paid back more than half of it.

The people in the gambling house provided a clue that this person had a lover, and he probably hid with his lover.

So, just after they found out that the boy had a lover living there, they didn't expect that a fire broke out there.

A fire was a big deal, so they immediately helped put out the fire. Even though the fire was out, the person was not found. They interrogated Qian, but they didn't know what Qian said, so they quickly left and went to investigate elsewhere.

A thin layer of sweat appeared on Old Mrs. Shen's back.

"Your uncle doesn't know anything, then, then..."

Cheng Jinchu sighed.

"He didn't know what happened. Did it affect his investigation? At that time, those people locked onto Qian. Qian probably said that she didn't come to her place, but she gave false information and made those people go somewhere else. After they left, the child who appeared told Qian about the arson.

Others didn't know that Qian had hidden that man in her house. Since they could get the money, they naturally kept silent about Qian deliberately lighting up the house.

After hearing this, Old Mrs. Shen started beating her chest and howling.

"Oh my God, oh my God, please open your eyes and look, the child I gave birth to is not a son, but a debt collector, how can I live?

Please have pity on me. I have dealt with so many things for him since he was a child. I beat him, scolded him, but why can't he get rid of the scourge of Qian? Oh my God! "

Shen Yun's face was darker than ever. Shen An also opened his mouth wide, sitting there as if his soul had been drained. Yu was sitting next to Shen An. She held Shen An's hand and couldn't help asking about what she was most worried about.

"Well, Third Uncle, that is to say, if Uncle is defined as the one who helped that person escape, will our Shen Mansion be implicated?"

Shen Yun sighed.

"The current situation is that as long as Qian's house-ticketing is exposed, her purpose will definitely be investigated. The person is hiding in her house, and it is impossible that no one around saw it.

It's just like the kid who saw Qian setting fire. The person who saw it probably didn't know that the man was the one he had been looking for recently. For example, he changed his facial features. He originally had no beard, but he grew a beard on purpose. It's very easy.

The person drawn by the recent painter based on the boss lady's description was not completely like the person to begin with. Moreover, the recent painter was the apprentice of the previous painter. The apprentice was young, and mainly because his master's hand was injured and he couldn't paint at all. It was also the first time for the apprentice to paint based on the description himself, otherwise, his master's painting could be more like the person and it would be easier for everyone to pay attention to the criminal.

My eldest brother gave so much money to help Qian, and he was willing to give so much. Even if he says now that he only gave it to Qian to avoid going to jail, others have to believe it.

He said he didn't know, but did he have evidence? The most likely scenario is that the man was arrested and gave Qian away. In order for the Shen family to pay and help save her, Qian would definitely drag my brother into this! "
