Chapter 703: Lack of Kindness
Xue Rui's disappearance in Fenghua Mansion was first transmitted back to Dali Temple, and then in the ears of some people, some people were anxious, and some people gloated, but in just three or two days, it caused a lot of suspicion, thinking of the important criminals of the court wanted by the emperor before, and directly pushed the Xue family to the cusp.
One of the fastest theories circulating in private is that the Xue family has committed a major incident, and they know that the way is not good, so they let Xue Rui escape first to keep this incense.
As soon as Yu Shu heard these rumors, he thought that someone was making a hindrance, who couldn't meet the Xue family, and intended to fish in troubled waters, it was obvious that King Ning would not let go of this good opportunity to fall into the well.
At noon that day, Yu Shu was resting in Kunling Bureau, and someone came to visit and handed over a post, which was to invite Liu Tan, the king of respect, to meet her in Wangji Building tonight.
Yu Shu should come down, go on a business trip that day, return to the house to change clothes, and hurriedly go to the Wangji Building.
When she got there, Liu Tan was not the only one waiting for her, Liu Jiong, Feng Zhaomiao, Qi Mingxiu, Ruilin, these sons and daughters who were brothers and sisters with Xue Rui on weekdays were all here, and as soon as she entered the door, she stood up together.
A room full of old men, staring at her girl's house, thanks to Yu Shu is not an ordinary little girl, otherwise she would have to be frightened by this battle and flee.
"Lianfang, do you know where Brother Daorui has gone?" Feng Zhaomiao was the most anxious, and without waiting for Liu Tan to speak, he asked first.
Yu Shu looked around at a few people, saw that they all had worried faces, muttered for a while, and said: "About seven days ago, the emperor list was posted in the capital, and I knew that there was a manager of the Xue family who was arrested and taken to Dali Temple, so I went to the yamen to find him. When I got there, I heard that my eldest brother went to Fenghua Mansion to handle a case. As a result, early this morning, I heard the news that someone else had disappeared outside. ”
Feng Zhaomiao let out an "ah" in disappointment, "It turns out that you don't know what to do." ”
He believed Yu Shu's words, and some people didn't believe it.
"Lianfang girl, since you know that something happened to the Xue family in Lu Dao, you must also know how serious the situation in Lu Dao is, we are not outsiders, and everyone is here to help. I want you to tell us the truth. Don't you really know where Brother Lu Daorui is? ”
This questioning person is Ruilin, the prince of the Earl of Zhongyong's Mansion, and it seems that they are all worried about Xue Rui, but Yu Shu heard it, they don't believe that Xue Rui will disappear for no reason. I'm afraid they all thought that he had fled.
Yu Shu was not moved by his words. Still shaking his head: "I really don't know what to do." It's not that I won't tell you. ”
As she spoke, she looked at Liu Tan, who was in this room. Counting his identity as the most valuable, and his words are the most weighty, before she came, she thought that Liu Tan was looking for her to inquire about Xue Rui's disappearance, but when she saw the few people he brought, she felt that it was not the same thing.
Liu Tan came into contact with Yu Shu's eyes, and after a pause, he asked, "Have you met your cousin before he left Beijing?" ”
"He left in a hurry, and he never said goodbye to me."
Several people frowned when they heard her say this. Feng Zhaomiao couldn't hold his breath, and muttered worriedly: "How is it good now, Brother Rui doesn't know where to go, the rumors outside are as if they are real, so people can't argue, if he doesn't come back for a day, the rumors will become more and more intense, and sooner or later they will reach the ears of the emperor, and it will really be a bad dish." ”
Yu Shu heard it word for word, and only felt that there was only one Feng Zhaomiao in this room who was really worried about Xue Rui, and who didn't take into account his own thoughtfulness.
Don't blame her villainous heart, the Xue family is Liu Tan's foreign family, once the building is dangerous, Liu Tan's first concern must be his own future, Liu Jiong is the son of the Xiang Prince's Mansion, his mother Princess Xiang is Xue Rui's aunt like Xue Guifei, if something happens to the Xue family, they will be more or less affected.
Ruilin and Qi Mingxiu are left, one is from the queen's mother's family, and the other is an unrelated bachelor's mansion, probably to find out the news.
Yu Shu's vigilance has always been heavy, and he refused to let them take her words, so he asked Liu Tan instead: "That person from the Xue family has been arrested and taken to Dali Temple for many days, has the prince inquired about why?" ”
Liu Tan sighed and said: "On the day of the incident, I sent someone to Dali Temple, but the wind was too tight, and I only heard that the prisoner was taken away the next day. ”
Yu Shu was clear in his heart, but he wanted to pretend to be ignorant: "I heard rumors that the prisoner taken away from the Xue family was involved in a rebellion case. ”
Liu Jiong, Feng Zhaomiao, and the others' faces changed, and they heard Liu Tan snort coldly: "What kind of conspiracy is a rebellion, it's just that someone is spreading rumors and making trouble, the Xue family has been loyal and good for generations, how can they kill themselves in a good way." ”
Yu Shu saw that he was angry, and said embarrassedly: "It's me who lost my words, and the prince forgives me." ”
Liu Tan didn't want to anger her, he passed by, and when he saw that she couldn't help much, he politely asked her to leave.
After Yu Shu left, Feng Zhaomiao and the others immediately surrounded them and discussed with Liu Tan what to do next, no matter what they thought in their hearts, they were all good brothers and good buddies of Xue Rui on the surface, how could they stand by and watch
Yu Shu came down from the second floor, and as soon as he arrived in the corridor, Shopkeeper Lin, who was standing under the weeping flower door in the backyard, trotted forward.
"Girl."
Yu Shu glanced upstairs and retreated to the staircase to talk.
"I just heard that the young man is gone, how can this be good, the little one has short knowledge, you give an idea?"
Lin Fu and the servants of this forgotten machine building are all Xue Rui's subordinates, but they have little to do with the Xue family, because the Xue family has a wanted criminal, such a big disaster is far less scary than Xue Rui's disappearance.
"What are you panicking about, the eldest brother is gone, someone is looking for him, you just can't help if you are panicking, don't worry, I have already made a peace divination, and no one will harm him."
Yu Shu patted him on the shoulder, and said in a relaxed tone: "Say to the big guy, what should you do, I have something to do." ”
"Well, yes." Lin Fu agreed, although he was apprehensive, but his belief in Yu Shu gave him a backbone again.
"Are you going back? The small one has some fresh food to take away from the kitchen, and you wait. ”
Lin Fu's body was blessed, but there was wind under his feet, and he ran into the big kitchen and carried a three-story food box out, but it was only a moment's work, but after a while, someone upstairs chased him down.
"Miss Yu." The second son of Qi has a polite appearance, gentle and polite.
Yu Shu couldn't think of anything he had to say to her in private.
"Anything else?"
There was a moment of confusion on Qi Mingxiu's face, as if he was embarrassed to speak, he lowered his head and asked softly, "Have you seen Miss Situ recently?" ”
Yu Shu slowed down for half a beat before he realized that the Miss Situ in his mouth meant Situ Qinglan. She remembered in a trance that Qi Mingxiu and Situ Qinglan had met at the Furong Gentlemen's Banquet a few months ago.
"I saw her in the Taishi Academy a few days ago," she observed Qi Mingxiu's expression, and more or less guessed.
"Is she alright?"
Yu Shu couldn't answer this, she shook her head, and asked, "If there is something wrong with Qi Gongzi, why don't you go to the Taishi Book Garden to find her and ask." ”
It's better to come and go openly like this than to ask around.
Qi Mingxiu's eyes darkened, and the corners of his mouth leaked a wry smile, if he could see Situ Qinglan, why bother to ask Yu Shu from near and far, every time he found an opportunity to look for someone in Taishi Library, she avoided him intentionally or unintentionally, so that he couldn't figure out her thoughts, whether it was the same as him.
Yu Shu saw that he was silent, and the more he invented his heart, he only said that she shouldn't ask about this matter, turned his head and saw Lin Fu coming out with a three-story food box, and hurriedly said goodbye to him:
"I'll go first, and I'll see you another day."
Qi Mingxiu didn't stop her, and after she left, he stood lonely at the top of the stairs for a while before going upstairs.
Besides, Lin Fu sent Yu Shu to the edge of the sedan chair, and she didn't forget to tell him before leaving: "Serve the masters behind well, eat and drink well, and let people go to Baochang Street to find me if there is anything." ”
What Liu Tan had in mind, in fact, it is not difficult to guess, it is nothing more than to take the opportunity of Xue Rui's accident to draw the connections around Xue Rui into his hands.
Liu Tan didn't think that the Xue family would be involved in the rebellion, and he didn't know that a catastrophe was coming, so he didn't forget to play his own little abacus at this juncture.
This is not the first time she has noticed that Liu Tan has a tendency to be unkind, but this time, it makes her feel cold.
For example, after she knew that Xue Rui was missing, her first reaction was that she was afraid that he would be killed, but what Liu Tan was worried about was clearly the negative effect of Xue Rui's disappearance.
Yu Shu didn't comment on Liu Tan's attitude to things, but she hesitated when she thought of helping such a person to win the heir and help him ascend to the throne. (To be continued......)
