Chapter 138 Destroying Evidence
Every family with daughters was afraid to avoid her.
However, Mrs. Wang had lofty ambitions and once tried to marry into the royal family, but was ruthlessly rejected by the eldest princess.
"Fang family? Which Fang family is so unfortunate?" someone asked doubtfully.
"Could it be that noble family, the Fang family?" Someone bystander asked, and everyone was worried about the Fang family.
"No, she is from the branch of the Fang family, and is the younger sister of Fang Mo, a captain of the Imperial Guards."
When people mention the Jinyiwei, they always think of the King of Qi's henchmen. They don't have a good reputation and many people are wary of them.
As soon as they heard that it was a family related to the Jinyiwei, their sympathy for the Fang family instantly disappeared.
"Mrs. Wang has such a picky eye, how could she be interested in the young lady from the Fang family?"
"It is said that it was Madam Huo who pushed hard for it, and only after Minister Wang nodded his approval did Madam Wang come to propose marriage."
Su Rao knew clearly in her mind that this was clearly an opportunity for Mrs. Huo to suppress Fang Yuan and at the same time issue a warning to Fang Mo.
Mrs. Wang has no good feelings towards Fang Yuan. Once Fang Yuan marries into the Wang family, what awaits her is her husband's rough treatment and her mother-in-law's disgust. She is like a beautiful flower, destined to wither and die in that mansion.
Mrs. Huo's action was probably not just because she and her sister visited the Fang family the day before. Perhaps she had been dissatisfied with Fang Mo for a long time.
Fang Mo loves his sister Fang Yuan very much, so he would not have the heart to let his sister jump into the fire pit of the Wang family.
Faced with Mrs. Huo's relentless pressure, how will Fang Mo deal with this sudden storm?
---
In a gorgeously decorated box in the city,
A group of idle noble children sat around a short and fat young man, vying with each other to flatter him.
"My brother is about to become a groom. When he has a family, he won't be able to live as freely as we do."
"Indeed, I heard that the young lady of the Fang family is as beautiful as a flower. Brother Wang is so lucky."
Their original intention was to please him, but they did not expect that Wang Zixin's face would instantly darken as soon as these words came out.
He once secretly looked at the portrait his mother handed to him. The woman in the painting was as thin as a bamboo, which was completely different from the plump beauty he preferred.
Unfortunately, his aunt praised it highly and his father was blinded by power and forced him to accept the marriage. The bitterness in his heart was beyond words.
"A real man has great ambitions, how can he be bound by a woman?" Wang Zixin snorted coldly, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.
He secretly swore that once he married her, he would make her just a decoration at home and he would never get close to her!
"If you think this is a blessing, I can give it to you..." Wang Zixin raised his lips with a playful smile.
Everyone echoed and laughed, saying, "Brother Wang, what you said is very true. Especially for a young talent like you, if you don't go out often, those girls will lose a lot of pleasure."
"Yes, the girls from Cuiliu Pavilion even asked when the prince would come again."
With everyone's flattery, Wang Zixin became more and more complacent, drinking one cup after another, and was eventually helped out of the box in a drunken state.
After going downstairs, Wang Zixin felt the urge to urinate, so he pushed the servant away and staggered to the toilet.
After solving the problem, he found that the servant was missing. He walked towards the street with a frown and cursing.
Halfway through the journey, a lithe figure came into view. The person had a graceful figure and a beautiful face. She was exactly the type he liked, and was even more attractive than the top girl in Cuiliu Pavilion.
Wang Zixin's eyes fixed, his heart beat faster, and driven by drunkenness, he staggered towards the woman.
Su Rao noticed something strange and quickly stepped back to avoid the greasy fat man.
"Don't run, beauty!"
The fat man was drunk and staggered towards Su Rao.
Su Rao turned around quickly and quickened her pace. As long as she passed through the alley, her carriage would be waiting ahead.
However, the fat man kept chasing after him.
"I am the son of Minister Wang. Follow me and I will ensure that you will enjoy wealth and glory."
Su Rao's steps paused involuntarily.
The son of Minister Wang?
Isn’t he the one that Mrs. Huo wants Fang Yuanjian to marry?
In a flash, the fat man was right in front of him.
Su Rao was about to kick the fat man away, when suddenly, a black shadow appeared from behind the fat man. A cold light flashed in his hand, and a fishy red liquid splashed out, covering Su Rao's face.
Everything happened so fast that Su Rao stood there in a daze for a moment.
In a flash, the fat man collapsed to the ground, his eyes rolled back, and he was dead.
The man in black was about to leave...
Su Rao's heart tightened. If this person left, wouldn't the death of this fat man be blamed on her?
This is the only son of Shangshu Wang, and standing behind him are two extremely powerful women, Madam Huo and Concubine Wang.
Anyone who kills him will be punished most cruelly...
Fang Mo, if you really take this step, I, Su Rao, will not give up. I will go to the Wang family in person and expose everything you have done!
Su Rao's voice pierced through the night, rapid and resolute.
The figure was about to escape into the edge of the night, but upon hearing these words, he stopped and could no longer move forward.
Su Rao's speculation was almost confirmed at this moment.
Fang Mo, that figure was so similar to her. Even with a thin cloth covering his face, it couldn't conceal his unique features. What's more, he had such deep concern for his sister. How could Su Rao not recognize him?
Fang Mo turned around slowly, his eyes as sharp as a blade, lightly sweeping over Su Rao.
"Do you think you can clear yourself of all responsibility by just walking away? The knife pierced deeply into the fat pig's body from top to bottom. The murderer must be much taller than the fat pig. You and I are of similar height. How could I perform such a trick? The Wang family's anger cannot be easily quelled. Once the investigation is carried out, the truth will be revealed."
Su Rao's words were full of wisdom, urgency and power.
The contempt in Fang Mo's eyes gradually faded, replaced by a deep scrutiny. Su Rao's analysis was not without reason, and it forced him to re-evaluate.
He couldn't let Su Rao bear the guilt alone. At most, they would both go to the abyss together.
"Therefore, the best way is to destroy the evidence. Without the body, the clues will naturally be cut off, and we will have more time to buy."
Fang Mo moved swiftly, picked up the heavy burden, and disappeared into the night in an instant.
A huge rock in Su Rao's heart finally fell to the ground. If she had hesitated for a moment at that moment, Fang Mo would have disappeared without a trace. I'm afraid she would really be unable to defend herself, even if she jumped into the Yellow River.
If the murderer escapes punishment, she will be doomed!
She hastily wiped the blood off her face and hurriedly fled from the narrow alley.
"Go back to the palace." Su Rao's voice was a little tired, but more of a relief.
……
It was late at night and everything was silent, but the door to Prince Yi's mansion was suddenly broken by a series of rapid knocks.
Soon, the servant's announcement woke Su Rao up from her sleep. She just woke up from a nightmare.
