The mind-reading coroner drove the court crazy

Chapter 162 The Lu Brothers Fall Out

Lu Qingchen ran quickly all the way, and soon arrived at the Dali Temple.

Before he even stepped through the door, he shouted excitedly at the top of his voice, "Wife, I have good news for you!"

The sound echoed in the courtyard of the Dali Temple, scaring away a flock of birds.

In an instant, the bailiffs of the Dali Temple all turned their eyes to Qin Miaoxi, their eyes full of curiosity and amusement.

This name was so intimate that it was shocking, and immediately attracted everyone's joking gazes.

Qin Miaoxi felt her face burning hot, and she was so embarrassed that she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into. She kept complaining in her heart: This guy, does he have to call him his wife so ostentatiously in front of so many people?

Lu Qingchen, however, acted as if nothing had happened, with a hint of unruly smile on his face, not caring about the looks of others.

In his opinion, the two of them were already married, so they could call each other whatever they wanted and why bother about worldly opinions.

Seeing this, Qin Miaoxi hurried over, put her hand over his mouth, frowned, and said angrily: "If you have something to say, just say it nicely. This is the court hall, why are you shouting!"

Lu Qingchen looked at the woman in front of him, who was as anxious as a pissed-off kitten. His eyes suddenly lit up, a hint of mischief flashed across them, and he thought to himself: "I didn't expect this woman's cheeks to flush red when she gets angry. She has a unique charm. I have to tease her more in the future."

Qin Miaoxi, who heard everything, looked at his triumphant look and felt angry and helpless. She rolled her eyes. How could this man be so childish?

Her face was full of disgust, and her tone was filled with impatience as she urged, "You'd better have something important to do, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."

Qin Miaoxi's fist, as big as a casserole pot, was right in front of him. Lu Qingchen subconsciously shrank his neck and said hurriedly, "I found out. Zou bought the blood-sucking worms. She was the one who brought them into the Lu Mansion."

Qin Miaoxi looked calm, revealing an expression of "as expected," and replied, "Okay, let's go talk to Zou."

At the same time, Lu Yuande strode into the hall of the Lu Mansion with a dark face, and slammed the crutch in his hand heavily to the ground with a "bang". The dull sound echoed throughout the hall.

Lu Lao Er and Lu Lao San were sitting leisurely drinking tea. They were frightened by the sudden noise and the tea spilled onto their clothes.

Lu Lao Er frowned and said unhappily, "Brother, what are you so angry about?"

Lu Yuande's eyes widened as he pointed at them, his voice trembling with anger. "You still dare to ask! How have I treated you all these years? I've provided you with good food and drink, and I've always thought of you first when it comes to any benefits. But what about you? What have you done behind my back? You even want to frame me for murder. Today, you must give me an explanation!"

Lu Lao San curled his lips and said nonchalantly, "Brother, please don't wrongly accuse me. What can we do? We were just being casual on a daily basis. Do you have to be so angry?"

Lu Yuande sneered, "Whatever you want? You've murdered and framed people, trying to divide up the Lu family's assets, and you still dare to play dumb in front of me! Today, I, Lu Yuande, will make this clear: you two are traitors. From now on, you are no longer members of the Lu family. Get out of the Lu Mansion!"

When Lu Lao Er heard this, he stood up with a bang, his face flushed red. "Lu Yuande, don't go too far! We are brothers, how can you just chase me away if you say so?"

Lu Yuande was not moved at all. With a wave of his hand, several servants immediately came forward and surrounded Lu Laoer and Lu Laosan.

Seeing this, Lu Lao San was a little scared, but he still threatened: "Brother, if you kick us out, don't blame us for exposing your shameful deeds! When that happens, let's see if you can still keep the Lu Mansion!"

Lu Yuande's face was terribly gloomy, and he snorted coldly, "You can say whatever you want. I, Lu Yuande, am upright and honest. Why should I be afraid of the slander of you villains? Today, no one can stop me from cleaning up the mess!"

After saying that, he waved his hand again, and the servants immediately took action, pushing and shoving Lu Lao Er and Lu Lao San out.

Lu Lao Er and Lu Lao San struggled and cursed: "Lu Yuande, you will get your comeuppance! We'll see!"

Lu Yuande stood at the entrance of the hall, looking at the two people who were driven out of the mansion, and said coldly: "From today on, you have nothing to do with the Lu family anymore. If you dare to set foot in the Lu Mansion again, don't blame me for being rude!"

In an instant, the vermilion door of the Lu Mansion slammed shut with a dull and resolute sound.

Lu Lao Er and Lu Lao San seemed to have their spines pulled out, and sat on the ground in a miserable state.

The people around came like a tide, their eyes full of sarcasm, like sharp knives, stabbing straight at the two downtrodden people.

Not long after, a loud commotion came from the mansion.

Immediately afterwards, the side door of the Lu Mansion was pushed open, and their wives and concubines were ruthlessly driven out by several sturdy servants.

These women, who usually live a life of luxury, had messy hair, untidy clothes, and faces filled with fear and anger.

They stumbled all the way to Lu Lao Er, knelt down with a plop, and tightly grasped his arms, crying, "Master! What on earth is going on? I am the master who has the final say in the mansion, and those servants are so bold as to carry me out! Master, you have to make a decision for us sisters!"

Her voice was sharp and tearful, which was particularly harsh in the noisy street.

Lu Lao Er was so angry that his whole body was shaking, his face turned pale and blue, and his chest was heaving violently.

His heart was filled with resentment and anger, but when he thought of Lu Yuande's resolute eyes, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.

But deep down, he still didn't believe that Lu Yuande really dared to spread the news. After all, once Lu Qingchen got the news, given his temper, he would definitely be the first person to come with a knife to take Lu Yuande's life.

Lu Lao San cursed fiercely, kicked a stone at his feet, and said viciously: "Let's go, without him, Lu Yuande, we can't survive!"

After saying that, he grabbed his wives and concubines, turned around angrily, and left in disgrace with the servants behind him, carrying his few remaining belongings.

Their figures looked so desolate in the bustling streets, and the pointing and laughing sounds of the people around them followed them like shadows.

Lu Lao Er followed behind, his facial muscles tense, his brows twisted into a knot, his eyes filled with anxiety and helplessness. He lowered his voice and said, "Where else can we go? There are eyes staring at us everywhere. It's hard to even take a step!"

"Let's find an inn to hide first. Give us a chance to catch our breath, and then we can plan a long-term solution." Lu Laosan's expression was solemn, and he looked around vigilantly. "I'll call Zou back later. She's thoughtful and thoughtful. Maybe she can really deal with that old fox Lu Yuande!"

After saying that, he ran away in a hurry.

On the other hand, the temple was filled with smoke and the atmosphere was quiet and a little depressing.

Qin Miaoxi and Zou's eyes met. Zou's expression was calm, with a faint smile on her lips. She asked slowly, "Madam General, are you here to burn incense and pray for blessings as well? Look at these devout pilgrims coming and going. With the Buddha's blessing, I believe that everything you ask for will be granted."

"No, I came here specially to see you." Qin Miaoxi's voice was cold, breaking the apparent peace, and every word seemed to be wrapped in frost.

Zou raised her eyes, a subtle hint of vigilance flashing across her gentle gaze. She casually glanced at her face, then nodded slightly, her proper smile returning to her face. "I wonder what Madam wants to talk to me about? If there's anything you can do for me, please let me know."

"The murderer who killed Meixiang, Mei Niang and Li has been caught. It was Meng." Qin Miaoxi stared at Zou's eyes, not missing any change in expression on her face.

Zou blinked in surprise when she heard this, the surprise on her face seeming genuine. "How could it be her? She looks so gentle and weak on weekdays, how could she do such a thing?"

After a brief silence, she continued to ask with a puzzled look on her face, "Since the murderer has been caught, why did the lady come to see me?"

Qin Miaoxi took a step forward, staring at Zou with a sharp gaze. She spoke each word with a measured tone, as if squeezing each word out through her teeth: "Because, you are the real culprit behind all this."

Her voice was not loud, but in this quiet temple, it was like a thunderclap, shaking the air so much that it seemed to freeze.
