Chapter 657

Avoiding Disaster

Chang Hu carefully took off the human skin mask on the boy's face, but it turned out to be an extremely ordinary face. He looked to be no more than thirty years old.

"Sir, this man has a layer of calluses on the tiger's mouth. He is a martial arts practitioner." Chang Hu opened the palm of the boy's right hand upwards. It was obvious that there was a layer of calluses left behind after practicing martial arts on the tiger's mouth and on the fingertips.

Master Chang knelt down and looked carefully, "The calluses are not thick, the palms are rough, and there are frostbites on the back of the hands. This person must have worked in a damp and cold place all year round."

Not to mention the bodyguards with strong martial arts skills like Chang Hu, even ordinary guards in the Chang Mansion, because they practice martial arts and are young and middle-aged, they have enough energy and blood to basically avoid frostbite in winter.

But although the boy who committed suicide by taking poison had calluses on his palms, it was obvious from his hands that he often did rough work and lived a slovenly life, with some black dirt between his fingernails.

"A knife can accurately hit Mr. You's vitals. This person must have killed someone before." Chang Hu turned around and glanced at You Bawang who was lying on the ground and was no longer breathing. The knife in the abdomen was not fatal, but the blade was the cause of death.

The red crane crown painted on it,

Master Chang's face was solemn. It would have been fine if it had been someone else who died, but it was You Bawang, the only Miaomiao of the You family. No matter who the murderer was behind the scenes, You Bawang died in Chang Mansion and in front of Master Chang. This feud was forged.

.

Chang Hu's body and the servant's body were temporarily left in the house. There were guards guarding the door, and Hong Xiu's several bribed maids were also under strict supervision.

When Mrs. Chang settled her frightened daughter, Mr. Chang was in the study.

"Send this letter to Baifu and hand it over to Baifu Yin in person." Mr. Chang handed the letter to Chang Hu and glanced at the night outside the window. It was already Haishi. If the incident hadn't happened suddenly, Mr. Chang wouldn't have done it.

I went to disturb Bai Fuyin late at night.

"Master, are you trying to avoid suspicion?" Mrs. Chang brought over the ginseng tea in the food box. She felt worried when she saw the tired-looking Master Chang, "Master, is this incident for us or for Miss Zhan?"

?”

You Bawang broke into the back house before, almost disturbing Zhan Feiyu and ruining her reputation. Mrs. Chang thought this was just a trick of the back house. But when You Bawang was assassinated, Mrs. Chang knew that this matter was not trivial and definitely involved the court.

Hall.

Patting Mrs. Chang's hand comfortingly, Chang Da said in a deep voice: "There are no clues at the moment. If they are simply enemies of my Chang family, it would be better to attack An An or Xiqing and the others than a roundabout assassination."

You Haoran.”

Mr. Chang has two sons and one daughter. The eldest son is now an official and the second son is still studying in the academy. Now Chang Ru'an has only one younger daughter staying in the capital. If he is really Mr. Chang's past enemy, he will directly kill his children.

It seems that he is more able to take revenge on Master Chang.

"That's for Miss Zhan?" Mrs. Chang's worried heart was slightly relieved. Even though her two sons were protected by someone, they can only be a thief for a thousand days, and there is no one who can guard against a thief for a thousand days. Mrs. Chang is really

Worried about the safety of my two sons.

"Not necessarily. Mr. You is the only one. Once You Haoran dies, the You family will be extinct." Mr. Chang rubbed his eyebrows, angry and irritable. Someone actually arranged this at today's birthday banquet, but why?

The assassination was successful!

"Although Mr. You is still in the capital now, he was in the army for many years in his early years. The current commander of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division, Zhu Guanyu, is a subordinate of Mr. You. The eldest prince and the prince are close." Mr. Chang also said.

It is suspected to be the work of a certain prince in the palace.

Once King You Ba died, the You family had no descendants. It was really meaningless for You Hou to seek refuge with the eldest prince. Even if he had the merit of following the dragon, so what. The You family had already been granted the title of marquis in the early years. Even if he was granted the title of king in the future, You would not be able to survive.

When the family dies, this inheritance will also be cut off.

Mrs. Chang's face turned pale when she heard this. Even though she had hated a dandy like You Bawang before, she couldn't help but said angrily: "It's not the family's fault. How could the affairs in the court involve the heirs? The You family has no heirs. This

It’s too ruthless and ruthless!”

Killing people can only be done with a nod of the head! There is only one Miaomiao in the You family. Now that King Youba is dead, the white-haired member of the You family will give away the black-haired member. Mrs. Chang feels heavy and uncomfortable in her chest just thinking about it, not to mention that this matter also involves the Chang Mansion.

.

"If the emperor does not appoint a heir, the princes will already be anxious and will resort to any stupid tricks." Master Chang sighed. This is why he asked his eldest son and second son to leave the capital, at least to avoid this disaster.

Similarly, Bai Fuyin's three sons, Bai Zhaorong and Bai Zhaohe, were also sent to serve as officials, leaving only Bai Zhaohui, the youngest son, to participate in the Spring Festival next year.

Mr. Chang can conclude that once Bai Zhaohui is named on the list, he will probably be promoted to an official position. As long as he is a top three scholar, he can at least be a seventh-grade county magistrate, thus avoiding the battle for the crown prince.

"The tree wants to be still but the wind doesn't stop." Mr. Chang looked at Mrs. Chang who was no longer young under the candlelight, "You Haoran died in the Chang Mansion. No matter what the purpose of the people behind the scenes, the You family will definitely bring their anger to the Chang Mansion, Madam

Why not take this opportunity to take An An back to your hometown to escape."

In normal times, Mr. Chang would not have an excuse to send his wife and daughter out of the capital, but now is the best time. "Madam, don't worry, these people are crazy, and there is no bottom line in their actions. It is dangerous for Madam and An An to stay in the capital."

Continuing to stay will only drag the master down. Mrs. Chang nodded in agreement after being silent for a while, "When the matter with You Haoran is settled, I will take An An and leave temporarily."
