"We can only guess that they are from that place based on the purses we found and the time when they first heard about the tribe. These few were tight-lipped, and we couldn't get anything out of the others."

At the post station, in Meixiang's room after dinner, Chu Zeming, Feng Yizheng, Situ Yidong and Mr. Dou sat at the table in the room, discussing the interrogation of the murderer.

After Situ Yidong caught the six murderers, he interrogated them in the courtyard for a day and a half. Except for the youngest one who blurted out the word "tribe" in a moment of panic when he heard the word, the others never spoke again.

"Are you sure they are from there?" Meixiang asked calmly, half lying on the bed. Her tone was as casual as if she was asking what to eat for breakfast tomorrow.

"Sister Xiang'er, take a look at this." Situ Yidong glanced at everyone present, took out the purse from his sleeve pocket, stood up and handed it to Meixiang, "This was found on the murderer."

Meixiang confirmed the origin of the purse almost at the first sight. She always had a keener perception than others about everything in the tribe. Perhaps this was one of the abilities of the saint.

Meeting Situ Yidong's puzzled gaze, Kaixiang sighed: "I don't need to see it to know that the solution comes from the tribe."

"How did you know?"

"I have an inexplicable sense of familiarity with it, a feeling that only comes with tribes."

So magical? Chu Zeming and Feng Yizhen opened their eyes wide. They were the only two of the five people in the room who had not been to the tribe. When they heard Meixiang say this, they suddenly felt isolated.

"Sister Xiang'er, I want to go to the tribe, too." Feng Yizheng spoke frankly. He had slowly accepted that he and Meixiang had no destiny in this life, so he didn't want to lose out in any other aspects.

"Huh? That place is very remote and backward. There's nothing fun or interesting to see there. Why do you want to go there?" Meixiang was very puzzled by the idea he proposed. The tribe was not a prosperous place, so why would anyone rush to go there?

Feng Yizhen rarely got angry, and at this moment he looked stubborn: "I just want to go and see, and experience the different customs and practices from Haoyue."

There is a saying that goes like this: Don't argue with men who are fighting with each other, because they will try to make trouble even if they are unreasonable. Meixiang deeply agrees with this saying.

"Okay, okay, as long as you can spare the time, you can go anytime. Well, Brother Chu will come too, so you two will have company."

Meixiang smiled and agreed repeatedly. She turned around and saw Chu Zeming staring at her with burning eyes. Before he could speak, she hurriedly agreed. Only then did they both smile.

Childish! Seeing them smiling with satisfaction, Situ Yidong curled his lips and turned his head away.

"Sister Xiang'er, do you want to meet them?" Thinking of the important matter, Situ Yidong quickly changed the subject.

Meixiang thought about it and finally shook her head, "Forget it. Since no useful information was found, there is no point in seeing him again. It is better to throw him back to the tribe and let the three elders and the clan leaders deal with it themselves."

They caused the trouble themselves, so they should deal with it themselves. Just give her a satisfactory answer, this injury can't be in vain, right? !

After discussion, the five people decided to let their people take the six murderers to the tribe and hand them over to the chief elder in person.

Two days later, Chen San brought 20 soldiers transferred by the Fuzhou commander, and Situ Yidong arranged four secret guards for him to accompany him. In total, they escorted the six murderers to the tribe.

"Chen San, you have been to the tribe before. Not only are you familiar with the people and terrain there, but the three elders and the clan leaders also recognize your face, so it is most appropriate for you to go this time."

"Brother Situ Shi has already sent a letter to Master Ou and Cousin Yishuang. They will arrange for someone to replace the soldiers from Fuzhou Prefecture at the border of Liuzhou Prefecture, and then arrange for someone to accompany you northward."

This was what Meixiang told him before he left. Chen San knew that someone had to go on this trip, and he was the most suitable person to go.

After Chen San took the man away, Meixiang and Mr. Dou adjusted the prescription based on the toxins remaining on the dagger found on the leader's body. After drinking it for another ten days, the remaining toxins in the body were almost cleared.

It takes time to restore a damaged physical foundation, and it can only be restored slowly in the future.

After dinner that day, a few people sat in Meixiang's room as usual, drinking tea, chatting and holding a small meeting.

"Tomorrow, I want to go to Sunjia Village to take a look," Meixiang, who was still leaning on the bed, had just finished drinking today's medicine. Her brows were tightly furrowed, and she stared at the bowl in Xiaosan's hand with a sad look.

"Can your body withstand such a long journey?" Situ Yidong was the first to jump out and ask. If possible, he would like Meixiang to lie in bed and recuperate every day.

It would have been fine if he didn't say anything. But when he opened his mouth, Meixiang rolled her eyes at him. "How dare you say that? I'm lying there with my bones almost falling apart. If you keep going like this, I'll be suffocated to death if I'm not poisoned!"

Since the murderer was caught, Situ Yidong resumed his surveillance mode. Except for taking a shower and sleeping, Meixiang never left his sight. Chu Zeming and Feng Yizhen occasionally joined in and stared at her closely.

The beautiful lady and Nanny Chen tried every means to prepare food and drinks for her, and asked Feng Yijia and the two children to find ingredients in various ways. It was visibly seen that during the time when Meixiang was recuperating, not only had she become a lot fatter, but everyone else in the Liu residence had also gained a lot of weight.

"What are you talking about? How can you curse yourself?" Chu Zeming couldn't help but add a sentence, but he still gave her hope and kicked the ball to the professionals on the scene: "But whether you can go out or not, it doesn't matter whether you say it to us or not. You need Mr. Dou's approval."

Mr. Dou instantly felt several gazes falling on him, one of which was particularly bright and hot. He never expected that while eating the melon, he would eat himself.

"Sir, tell them quickly that I'm almost well!" Meixiang said anxiously, "Besides, we've been staying in Fuzhou for too long. We should give him an explanation for what we promised Old Man Sun before we leave."

During the time when Meixiang was recovering from her injuries, Old Man Sun helped her a lot. Not only did he take out his treasured medicinal herbs without saying a word, he even pulled out the seedlings growing in the nursery without hesitation, as long as Meixiang could use them.

Given Meixiang's personality, if she doesn't get an explanation for this affection, she will remember it for the rest of her life.

Furthermore, Mr. Dou's eyes darkened for a moment. The current Sun Village was even worse than the original Luo Village, and Old Man Sun was really good at growing herbs.
