Crossing town house man and wife

Not long after Wu Ming walked out of the Yilan courtyard, he bumped into Yao Zhong who was rushing over.

Wu Ming felt that he hadn't stayed in the Yilan courtyard for long, but Yao Zhong had already changed back into a servant's clothes, with a conspicuous bronze medal hanging on his waist, and a group of guards followed behind him.

Seeing Wu Ming, Yao Zhong stopped immediately, with a complicated expression on his ferocious face, then bowed and said, "Madam is mighty."

"Come to clean up the aftermath?" Wu Ming asked bluntly.

Yao Zhong smiled sheepishly, "Madam, don't worry, even if you give me a little more courage, I won't dare to embarrass you."

"Then go clean it up." Wu Ming waved his hand, "It's not cold yet, it's really not good to leave the corpse for a long time."

Yao Zhong's smile froze, "Ma'am, forgive me for saying one more thing——is Mrs. Tai still okay?"

"I'm afraid it's not very good." Wu Ming shrugged, and seeing Yao Zhong's face changed drastically, he immediately added, "Anyway, I'm not going to die—well, it doesn't count if I'm scared to death."

Yao Zhong took a deep breath, bowed quickly and said, "I'll go there first, Madam please forgive me."

"Go." Just as Wu Ming was about to leave, he stopped and turned around and asked, "By the way, how is the matter I asked you to investigate?"

"Return to Madam, that man has already bowed his head and confessed his crime in your yard, you can see him when you go back." After speaking, Yao Zhong didn't dare to talk to Wu Ming anymore, so he quickened his pace and went straight to Yilan Courtyard.

Wu Ming turned around and continued walking towards his yard.

But the tortoise shell whispered: "Ma'am, I also want to learn kung fu like yours!"

Wu Ming was silent for a few seconds, and said, "Do you still remember what I told you when I took you to the military camp for the first time?"

"Ah?" Tortoise shell was taken aback.

"Already forgot?" Wu Ming smiled and said no more.

Tortoise hurriedly followed, thinking carefully while walking, and soon asked again in amazement: "You mean, let me and my family... sever ties?"

"Well, remember? Have you thought about it?" Wu Ming asked lightly.

"I..." Tortoiseshell opened its mouth, but didn't know how to answer.

Wu Minghun smiled nonchalantly, "If you don't think about it, keep thinking about it. When you think you can give me an answer, I will teach you."

Tortoiseshell is not very old, and his bones are not bad. He can learn spells and martial arts together. Even if he can't become a serious monk, he can at least practice a bit of bluffing skills.

But he didn't want to make wedding dresses for others and train the tortoise shell into a female dog leg.If the tortoiseshell can't get rid of the constraints of worldly morality and cut off his weakness of being controlled by others, then he would rather give her more money when he leaves, and use money to end this fate.

Seeing that he was about to go to his own courtyard, Wu Ming found a woman kneeling at the gate of the courtyard, apparently dressed as a maid, kneeling upright on the stone brick road at the entrance, accepting the constant attention from the gatekeeper.

When he walked to the side, Wu Ming recognized this person, it was Zhuji who made him dislike him,

Wu Ming immediately remembered what Yao Zhong said just now: The prisoner has come to him and surrendered himself.

She turned out to be playing tricks?

After being surprised, Wu Ming didn't think it was so strange.

He has clearly expressed his dislike for her, and this dislike has already threatened her status and interests in the sheriff's mansion. She naturally has the right to protect herself in the best way possible, and will threaten her personally. He was expelled out of interest.

It's a pity that the little calculation encountered absolute violence and was directly crushed to nothing.

Ever since, Zhuji could only make a desperate effort to come forward and surrender herself, in order to win Wu Ming's generous understanding.

Regrettably, Wu Ming had crossed out the word forgiveness from his dictionary for a long time.

Wu Mingli ignored Zhuji, who was about to speak, and walked into the courtyard.

Tortoiseshell also only glanced at Zhuji, but also didn't say much.

As soon as they entered the yard, Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao greeted him first, and they were startled by the blood on Wu Ming's body.

Wu Ming didn't explain to them, he just asked them to fetch hot water and get ready for a change of clothes, and then went straight into the clean room.

After washing up, it was almost time for lunch.

Because the weather is still a bit hot at the moment, Osmanthus made Wu Ming a cold tofu, cut a piece of sauced beef, and served it with rice soaked in well water.

After lunch, Wu Mingzheng was planning to go back to replenish his spiritual power in the name of taking a nap, but Jin Jiao came up and asked Zhuji outside the door what to do with it.

"How to deal with what?" Wu Ming frowned.

"You can't just let her kneel outside, can you?" Jin Jiao also frowned, "No matter why she annoyed Madam, kneeling like this will make others think Madam is unkind."

Does anyone in the sheriff's mansion think he is amiable?

Wu Ming rolled his eyes, "If she loves to kneel, let her kneel. If you can't see it, then don't look at it."

"lady--"

Jin Jiao was about to say more, when there was a light cough from the door, and it was Aunt Lao who walked in.

"Miss Jinjiao, it's better not to be too kind." Aunt Lao said with a flat face, "Zhuji's current approach is to use the weak to coerce the strong to force Madam. If it is the old lady and Madam, she will pull her out Madam is kind enough to ignore the one who was beaten to death with a whip, and she must not continue to indulge her."

Aunt Lao's words clearly contained a warning, Jin Jiao immediately shut his mouth and bowed his head in silence.

Wu Ming felt that Aunt Lao was well-informed, and she might have heard something, so she came in and sold it—anyway, his reputation was already so black that it was impossible to put him in the dark even if he pretended to let Zhuji go. Whitewashed.

"Take her down and tell her well." Wu Ming yawned, "I'll sleep first, unless the sheriff comes here in person, otherwise, no one will come in to disturb me."

"Ma'am, please allow this old slave to ask me a question." Aunt Lao continued, "If Zhuji doesn't kneel..."

"Then let her go." Wu Ming waved his hand, "Just treat her like bullshit."

"Old slave understands." Aunt Lao gave a salute and left the main hall with the tortoiseshell.

Wu Ming hurriedly turned around and entered the inner room, jumped onto the bed, and began to meditate cross-legged.

Wu Ming wasn't sure how Yan Heng would react to what happened today. After all, he was ruthless enough. If Yan Heng saw his own mother being beaten up like that by him, he would feel distressed and decide in a fit of anger. If he had fulfilled his filial piety and punished him, then there would definitely be another big battle, so he had to be well prepared.

Yan Heng didn't return to the Sheriff's Mansion until the sun was about to set. Before dismounting from his horse, he found Yao Zhong standing at the door with the scar on his back, wearing a servant's attire, with the Tiger Talisman he gave him for emergency on his waist Badge.

Yan Heng's heart skipped a beat immediately, feeling ominous, he quickly got off his horse and asked, "What happened?"

"My lord, let's talk about it after entering the mansion." Yao Zhong nodded slightly.

Yan Heng didn't ask any more questions, handed over the reins to the attendant, and followed Yao Chong into the Sheriff's Mansion.

After entering the front yard, Yan Heng asked again: "But what happened to Madam?"

"This matter is related to Madam, but...my lord, it is best to go to Tai Madam's yard first." Yao Zhong showed a wry smile, "Forgive Yao Chong for not being able to explain it to you here, you will only understand it when you see it with your own eyes. .”

"What did you do again?" Yan Heng immediately thought of Yao Zhong's advice to him before, and his face darkened.

"Master, I really didn't do anything—to be exact, I didn't have time to do it at all." Yao Zhong spread his hands helplessly, "In fact, both Madam and Madam Tai can be said to have been calculated by others. And this person... you would never have guessed who it would be."

"In the Xikua courtyard?" Yan Heng raised his eyebrows.

"It is indeed from the Xikuan courtyard, but it is not your concubine Ji." Yao Zhong said.

"Which one is it?" Yan Heng asked impatiently.

Yao Chong sighed, "Zhu Ji."

"How is it possible?!" Yan Heng did not associate it with her, nor would he associate it with her at all.

"Zhuji is pleading guilty at the gate of madam's courtyard now, and she can't escape. The lord should go to visit Mrs. Tai first." Yao Zhong spoke again.

Yan Heng took a deep breath, suppressed the urge to arrest Zhuji for interrogation, turned around and walked towards Ying's Yilan Courtyard.

When Yan Heng arrived at Yilan Courtyard, Ying had already taken the soothing decoction and fell into a deep sleep, but judging from the tightly furrowed brows, it was obvious that he had not slept peacefully.

Ying's female guards were slaughtered by Wu Ming, and the rest of the maids were also frightened out of their minds. At this moment, it was He Qianqian who led someone to guard her bedside, helped her change her clothes, and wiped her body.

Seeing Yan Heng coming in, He Qianqian got up and gave a salute, then stepped aside to give up the seat beside the bed.

Yan Heng stepped forward and took a general look, and found that Ying Shi seemed to have been beaten, his cheeks were swollen, but there were no fingerprints, and he looked like his teeth were injured by a fist.In addition, the little finger of her left hand was also wrapped and fixed with a bamboo stick, as if it had been injured.

"What's going on?" Yan Heng asked in a deep voice.

Without waiting for Yao Zhong to answer, He Qianqian said first: "Aunt finally fell asleep, please cousin move to the next door to talk."

After speaking, He Qianqian took the lead to walk to the Nuan Pavilion next door.

Yan Heng was slightly taken aback, then turned to look at Yao Chong.

Yao Zhong just stretched out his hand, asking Yan Heng to go first.

Yan Heng frowned, very dissatisfied with such a riddle, but he still walked forward and followed He Qianqian to the next door.

After entering the next door, Yan Heng found that there was still a person lying there, and after a closer look, he found that it was Danying, the daughter of Prince Xuan.

Danying's injury was obviously much worse than Ying's. One arm was folded in half, and one wrist was only connected by skin and flesh. seriously injured.

"Master Danying insisted on entering the Xikua courtyard for some reason today, but because she was stopped by the gatekeeper, she lost her temper in the Xikua courtyard. Someone exaggerated the situation there and took the opportunity to invite his wife to go there." Yao Zhong said today The ins and outs of what happened, but did not mention Zhuji's name in front of He Qianqian.

"I have asked someone to dispose of those corpses, but in order to avoid leaking the news, I decided on my own and didn't let anyone notify the lord." Yao Zhong bowed to plead guilty, "I also ask the lord to punish."

"How is Madam?" Yan Heng asked.

"Don't worry, my lord, Ma'am is very good, not even a single hair is missing." So don't worry about him, and deal with this one first!

Yao Zhong secretly slandered.

"Cousin, the most urgent thing is to solve Sister Danying first." He Qianqian interjected, "Forgive me, Sister Danying's condition is not good. Instead of letting her continue to be tortured by pain, it is better to give her A happy one, let her enter reincarnation early."

Yan Heng and Yao Zhong were taken aback for a moment, neither of them expected that He Qianqian would say such an astonishing remark.

"What do you mean?" Yan Heng narrowed his eyes and asked coldly.
