Yun Ting anecdotes

Chapter 27 Chapter 27

Wu Siyue's deputy reported that the fire started from inside Liu's house, but he couldn't find out whether it was arson by someone else or an open flame in the house accidentally ignited.

If someone else set the fire, it would be very difficult to tell in the case of the people in Liu's house. After all, everyone in a house has been poisoned, and it is very likely that such a thing as accidentally touching a candlestick will happen.However, Mu Ruyu had a second item in his hand, but he thought it was deliberately set on fire.

At night in Liu's house, people would occasionally run out, and Mu Ruyu wondered if someone happened to go out last night.If there are people who go out, you can find out by comparing the number with the family tree.Then search inside and outside the city, and he will be able to find him and hand him over to Chunyu Yelai.

But if those who went out were found by the arsonists, they were sent back to Liu's house.

Two of the corpses were in strange positions and had broken bones. It seemed that the arsonist caught them and threw them directly from the patio.They really want to burn Liu Zhaihe's house into a sea of ​​flames.

Mu Ruyu shared his conjecture with Chunyu Yelai and Wu Siyue.Chunyu Yelai's face turned cold, "The whole house was poisoned, and three years later he was murdered... Hurry up and protect that Miss Liu, they don't even know that she came here secretly!"

Wu Siyue then sent someone to the next county to invite that Miss Liu, and Mu Ruyu patted Chunyu Yelai on the shoulder, signaling him not to worry too much.

However, Chunyu Yelai was still immersed in his thoughts.

If Mu Ruyu and him hadn't happened to take refuge in this Green Bamboo City, and if General Wu hadn't arrived during the inspection, then the burning of Liu's house would have been hastily dealt with.The crazy words of the people in Liu's house have spread throughout Cuizhu City and the surrounding cities and counties. Even if something happened, other people might think it was normal.Then follow the process...

"Yelai, you can tell me your worries, so you don't have to be alone." Mu Ruyu pressed his shoulder, and he could feel that Chunyu Yelai was still in a bad mood.

Chunyu Yelai, "If we weren't here, what would happen to the Liu residence?"

Mu Ruyu, "This matter is not small, and Qingya County Prime Minister will send someone to handle it." He suddenly thought of something, and immediately stopped Wu Siyue, "Old Wu, is that Qingya County Prime Minister still in Cuizhu County? Keep an eye on him and don't make him suspicious."

As soon as Wu Siyue heard Mu Ruyu's words, he understood something. While sending someone to check on the situation of the Qingya county magistrate, he turned his head and said to Mu Ruyu: "Your Highness, don't let people suspect this matter. If it’s difficult, it’s better to tie people up and cover their mouths.”

Mu Ruyu gave him a fake smile.

However, Wu Siyue's statement is indeed reasonable. If the Qingya county magistrate is really related to what happened in Liu's house, he was stopped by General Wu's soldiers today. During this inspection, and another terrible incident happened, it is difficult for him to leave this place.It is indeed difficult to not feel up and down in your heart.

Instead of preventing him from committing suicide or something, it would be better—

"Wait," Chunyu Yelai stopped the person Wu Siyue was going to send, and took out a little medicine powder and handed it to him, "Master Cheng of Qingya County wants to stay here, why don't you let him sleep, if Qingya County If you come to him for something, ask him what it is."

You don't need to guess, you know that this powder is a drug that induces sleep.

Wu Siyue's subordinates had already passed by, Wu Siyue turned his head and said to Mu Ruyu: "Where did you get this Chunyu Charing History, the method is clever."

Mu Ruyu smiled, "It's a coincidence, we met on the side of the road."

Mu Ruyu seems to be right when she said that, the first time they met was indeed on the side of the road.

The news of Liu's house leaking has already spread to Yuanwai's mansion where Miss Liu's family lives.The people sent by Wu Siyue conveyed General Wu's invitation to Yuan Wai and his son, and Yuan Wai asked Ms. Liu's maid to accompany her to Cuizhu City.

Green Bamboo City is actually not far from Yuanwai's Mansion, and it can be arrived in a short time by carriage, so Miss Liu also secretly chartered a carriage to go back to Liu's Residence.But the question is, why secretly.

The soldiers drove towards the direction of Green Bamboo City, and there was a faint sound of cloth floating in the bamboo forest.The soldier also sensed that something was wrong, but he could only hurry forward and get closer to Cuizhu City.

The sound of some cloth floating was heard again, and the soldier driving the chariot had already clenched the long knife pinned to his waist. "Drive!" He urged the horse to hurry towards the destination.

Not long after, the forest became quiet again, only the bamboo leaves rustling in the wind.

In Tianzi No. [-] room, a small white returning sparrow landed on Mu Ruyu's knuckles. He took the note from the bird and let it fly away.

Both Chunyu Yelai and Wu Siyue were still in this room, Chunyu Yelai looked at Mu Ruyu, Mu Ruyu met his gaze, put his finger on his lips to "shh", then pointed to Wu Siyue, signaling Chunyu Yelai not to come out. The sound alarmed General Wu.

Chunyu Yelai smiled when he saw this, and continued to read a book in his hand with his head down.

"Report to the general, Ms. Liu has already been invited, and she is downstairs." Wu Siyue's men came to report.

Wu Siyue, "Invite her up quickly."

Miss Liu was led up the stairs, and when everyone in Tianzi No. [-] room saw her, they found that she was indeed a beautiful woman.

She had seen many amazed looks from others, so she lowered her eyes naturally, and bowed outside the door, "Liu Wan has seen all the adults."

"Please come in." Standing at the outermost place, Wu Siyue said.

But she still stood outside the door and said: "I heard about the flood in the house, and I want to ask first, are the family members all right?"

The three people in the room were silent for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

The silence at this time made people flustered, and Liu Wan said cautiously: "Master, can I go and see my family first?"

It's not good to be silent anymore, Chunyu Ye said: "Miss Liu, do you know that everyone in Liu's house has been poisoned?"

"Poisoned?" Liu Wan's expression changed instantly, "Aren't they all..."

"What are they all?" Chunyu Yelai asked immediately.

Liu Wan, "It's just that they are all sick, but they haven't been cured! How could it be poisoning?"

This Liu Wan probably knows something.They invited her into the house.

Wu Siyue, "Miss Liu, it's better to tell what you know first."

When General Wu turned his face away, his enemies on the battlefield would panic when they saw it, let alone a woman who took care of her husband and raised her children at home.

Chunyu Yelai spoke slowly, "Miss Liu, you said they just got sick, what kind of sickness did they have?"

Liu Wan, "I... the epidemic, my husband's family didn't know about it, someone in my family got the epidemic."

Chunyu Yelai, "It is said that you went back to Liu's house alone, is it because you know the situation at home?"

Liu Wan raised her head and looked at Chunyu Yelai in surprise, she thought that no one else knew about her return to the Liu residence.

After a while, she nodded: "Actually, before I got married, my cousin's youngest son was sick. Everyone thought he had caught a cold on the road, and he would be cured after raising him. I didn't expect that he had an epidemic disease." .But his illness was discovered by my family only after I got married. "

Chunyu Yelai said, "Then how did Miss know that he was ill?"

Liu Wan recalled it for a while, and replied: "I remember that at that time, it was because someone from the Zheng family came to my husband's house to report the funeral, saying that he had contracted an epidemic and left. The Zheng family and my husband's family were old acquaintances, so my husband-in-law asked, where are they?" How did you get the disease? People who came here said that they had contracted it a long time ago, and they didn’t know where they got it. I was shocked when I heard it.”

How did another family get involved, Chunyu Yelai asked again, "Why is Miss Zheng so nervous when someone in Zheng's family gets sick?"

Liu Wan replied: "The Zheng family and my family also know each other, but they met on the road."

Chunyu Yelai, "on the way?"

Liu Wan, "A few years ago, there was a lot of turmoil here, and some wealthy families went to the deep mountains, thinking that they would not be able to fight inside. Our Liu family and Zheng's family met when they were fleeing. When the outside world is peaceful, we will not be able to fight." The family moved back. Actually, I think..."

Chunyu Yelai, "What do you think?"

Liu Wan seemed to feel that such a guess was inappropriate, but she continued, "I think my uncle, who is also the head of our Liu family, probably knew that my uncle's youngest son didn't suffer from the cold, otherwise he wouldn't Separately set aside a small room for the child to live in. My cousin and his family only moved into the house later, and they are not close to the original people."

Mu Ruyu and Wu Siyue were listening beside them, without interrupting Chunyu Yelai's questioning.

Chunyu Yelai, "But madam, according to what you said, you had already married into your husband's family at that time, and the head of the Liu family didn't want people to know that someone in the family had the disease, how did you know?"

Liu Wan, "My mother told me after I went back alone that time. She didn't want me to know after she knew my purpose of coming, but my original room was in the inner room, and they wouldn't let me in anyway. suspicious.

"The mother said that the child died not long ago. The mother couldn't bear it. She said it was caused by family members. No one was allowed to carry it out for burial. She even pried open the coffin. After a day, that person... the child's mother couldn't take it anymore, so she hit the pillar and died.

Later, many people in the house had symptoms of the disease, so my mother didn't let me go into the inner room.But she told me not to worry, saying that the family had already found the medicine and it would be fine. "

Chunyu Ye was amazed, "The epidemic may not be cured, and it depends on the individual. How can there be medicine that is sure to be all right? Did Lingtang tell you, who gave the medicine?"

Liu Wan, "She said that the county magistrate sent someone here, so she can't make a mistake."

Chunyu Yelai, "Master County Chancellor? Qingya County Chancellor?"

Liu Wan, "Well, it's him."

Mu Ruyu said at this moment: "No wonder."
