Chapter 45 Preparing the sedan chair

After Steward Ding listened carefully, he immediately parted ways with Mu Zhonghong. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

One continued to the firewood house in the backyard, and the other returned to the front yard to find a reliable son.

Earlier, when Zhong Xiaoli went to the princess's mansion to investigate, he was only detained by Mu Zhonghong in the backyard firewood room and beaten up, and later as soon as Luo Gong left, he asked Mu Zhonghong to be directly locked up in the private torture room in the backyard of the princess's mansion.

Entering the torture chamber is a world of difference from entering the firewood room.

So when Mu Zhonghong went to the firewood room in the backyard, because of the important matter, the kitchen next door to the firewood room had already emptied him, anyway, this small courtyard was used by Zhu Rong as a small kitchen before.

Later, Zhu Rong chose another courtyard closer to Ling Qiuyuan as a small kitchen, and this small courtyard was abandoned since then and became a place for Mu Zhonghong to teach people, which was not without Zhu Rong's acquiescence.

Mu Zhonghong kicked the door into the firewood room, and saw Zhong Xiaoli, who was covered in blood, lying in the debris in the firewood room, his eyes were closed, his lips were white, the bridge of his nose was bleeding, his hair was scattered and messy, and his ten fingers were full of blood.

Mu Zhonghong looked at the dying Zhong Xiaoli with a headache, kicked it twice, and saw that Zhong Xiaoli seemed to be in a daze, and his brows couldn't help frowning even tighter.

Mu Zhonghong was thinking about countermeasures back and forth in the firewood room, but the back door over there had been blocked by Bing Wei.

Bing Wei was guarding the alley at the back door of the princess's mansion, and when he saw that the mansion was like dumplings, one after another ghosts and ghosts popped out, he was also like a cauldron of cooking dumplings, one after another, and several groups of people who were watching in the dark of the alley couldn't help but twitch the corners of their eyes.

When Bing had not finished all the eight dumplings and was frowning and thinking about how to transport the eight children of the princess's mansion back to the Jinyi Wei Yamen, Xiao Yu appeared in a blue and white oil canopy carriage at the right time.

Xiao Yu jumped out of the carriage and saluted Bing Wei, and said in a low voice:

"The little one is called Xiaoyu, it's the informant of Lord Yuqianhu, and he has been watching here since last night, and when he saw Lord Bingwei coming to the back door to order dumplings, Xiaoyu took it upon himself to hire this carriage, if Xiaoyu did something wrong, I hope Lord Bingwei will forgive him!"

What a clever informant!

That is, it is clear that it is the person who is Yu Shi, and it also explains the reason for the coming, not only is it clever and handles things properly, Bing Wei really has no reason to pick thorns, of course, he never picks anyone's thorns, he has never spent that effort, but speaks directly with a knife.

After Bing Wei and Xiao Yu drove the blue and white oil canopy carriage away, several groups of people and horses hidden in the back door alley of the princess's mansion immediately sent a spy to return to the mansion to report the situation here.

A basin of cold water poured down, Zhong Xiaoli woke up from the cold well water, and his eyes were black and gloomy Mu Zhonghong, he grinned and wanted to laugh, but in the middle of the grinning, blood oozed from the corners of his mouth, and he hissed twice in pain.

Mu Zhonghong snorted coldly: "It's good to wake up!" Someone, hurry up and change his clothes! ”

This change of clothes is a nice and obscure statement, as a thug that Mu Zhonghong uses very easily, there is naturally a makeup expert who can clean up the mess and respond to all changes.

After a quarter of an hour, Mu Zhonghong saw Zhong Xiaoli again, and nodded with satisfaction:

"Let's go! Go to the main hall in the front yard! ”

As soon as he came out of the backyard, he walked to the small courtyard in the middle of the front and back yards as a separate garden, and Steward Ding was already waiting for Mu Zhonghong there, and when he met Mu Zhonghong's eyes, he only nodded his head at Mu Zhonghong.

Mu Zhonghong smiled more and more satisfied: "Okay! ”

Yu Shi sat alone in the main hall, drinking two bowls of hot ripe Pu'er tea, and saw Mu Zhonghong re-entering the hall with a steady pace, she thought that the matter should be done, otherwise Mu Zhonghong, the old slave, would not be so fearless.

Sure enough, it was Zhong Xiaoli who appeared behind Mu Zhonghong, except for his poor complexion, his face was swollen, and the corners of his mouth were bloodshot, but he was still a dog, and he didn't seem to be seriously injured.

But when Yu Shi's gaze moved down further, she found that this forged dark blue robe did not fit Zhong Xiaoli's size at all, the cuffs were not an inch and a half long, which was enough to cover Zhong Xiaoli's hands, and then looked at Zhong Xiaoli's walking, although it was normal, it was a little vain.

Mu Zhonghong stepped forward to salute the jade pick, and Zhong Xiaoli also seemed to be unsteady, trembling and giving the jade a salute.

After Yu Shi let the two of them be exempted, he asked, "What's wrong?" Xiao Li hasn't woken up yet, or is he drunk? ”

Asked by Yu Shi like this, Zhong Xiaoli half-lowered his eyes, and stood behind Mu Zhonghong resignedly, that is, he did not dare to step forward to talk back, nor did he dare to look at Yu Shi's eyes, which was completely different from Zhong Xiaoli who dared to tell the truth for his master, and said that as long as he could redress the grievances of his master, he would lose his life and be willing.

Yu Shi wanted to take a step forward, but only half a step made Mu Zhonghong block a step sideways:

"Xiao Li has been seriously ill in the past two days, his body is very weak, and he was dug up from the sick bed by the old slave in a hurry, which will still be a little confused, and he is a little unsteady even to give a salute to the Lord of Qianhu, which is really rude! The old slave will make amends for Xiao Li, and ask a large number of thousands of adults, don't blame! ”

Seriously ill?

Zhong Xiaoli's face was extremely poor, his eyes were blank, and he seemed to be walking with a fluttering pace, which really looked like he was seriously ill and had not recovered.

But what is Yushi, Mu Zhonghong can fool others with a serious illness, but he can't fool her, his expression is cold, and his eyes can shoot out of ice:

"The butler is the stranger of Lord Ben, is it not at the right time?"

Mu Zhonghong trembled and almost knelt down as soon as his legs were weak: "The old slave doesn't dare!" ”

Yu Shi snorted coldly: "You don't dare!" As for Xiao Li...... It's okay, anyway, Lord Ben is also looking for Xiao Li for an important matter, since he is seriously ill, then ......"

Mu Zhonghong couldn't help but stretch his neck forward as Yu Shi deliberately dragged out a long tail note, hoping to hear Yu Shi say-then he would come another day to take Zhong Xiaoli to the Jinyi Wei Yamen for questioning.

Yu Shi paused and continued: "Then there will be a soft sedan chair arranged by the Lao Mu butler, and then two capable and stable sedan chair drivers will be sent to carry Zhong Xiaoli and go to the Jinyi Guard Yamen with Lord Ben!" ”

Zhong Xiaoli's expression finally changed, he looked up dumbfounded, looking at the jade pick that he had to prepare a soft sedan chair to carry him as a matter of course, but as soon as Mu Zhonghong's words of warning him in the firewood room sounded, he instantly sobered up again, and soon buried his head again, staring down at the toes of his shoes.

Yu Shi's words also found Mu Zhonghong unexpectedly, I thought that even if Yu Shi insisted on taking people away, he couldn't, so he had to let people go, anyway, he had warned Zhong Xiaoli, he was not afraid that Zhong Xiaoli would rebel and betray him, Cocoa...... He didn't expect Yu Shi to make such a request!

Yu Shi saw Mu Zhonghong standing stunned, a pair of dead fish eyes stared at Lao Yuan, and couldn't help but stretch a face, and said very unhappily:

"Lord Ben was also in a hurry to leave in the morning, so he forgot to bring two more people over, and he also thought that Her Royal Highness the princess had said that he would fully cooperate with the command so that the lord could find out the whole story of the assassination of the master as soon as possible, and Lord Ben didn't care much, thinking about something, and asking Her Royal Highness the princess to help with it in the princess's mansion, why is Her Royal Highness the princess not here, what is the difficulty of the wooden housekeeper?"
