Chapter 19 Pain Makes People Grow Old
Fu Mingrui looked at Duanmu Qingchen with disgust, and got on the horse: "I'm going to handle the case today, and I have no time to accompany you." Fu Mingrui pulled the horse rope and said in a perfunctory tone.
If Fu Mingrui knew that Duanmu Qingchen would be so clingy, he would never enter the palace with his father to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, and this "bad relationship" between him and him began with that imperial banquet.
Duanmu Qingchen rode his horse close to Fu Mingrui's horse, stretched out his foot and kicked his foot: "I'll go with you!
Fu Mingrui already had a headache, but Duanmu Qingchen was the prince, and he couldn't go too far, so he could only answer: "I have a new clue about the hanging case in the secret room I told you before, and now I want to investigate." ”
"That's the case! Okay! Take me with you! You didn't tell me how you solved it last time, you must tell me well this time!" Duanmu Qingchen was even more excited.
Fu Mingrui turned his face to look at him with a heavy face: "The case is serious, and it is inconvenient to take you." Fu Mingrui's dark eyes were already full of anger.
Duanmu Qingchen looked at him for a while, his peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his lips were hooked: "Okay~~ Then I won't bother you to handle the case~~ I'll go find Yoyo to play!" As he spoke, he was about to turn his horse's head.
Fu Mingrui leaned in hurriedly and grabbed Duanmu Qingchen's hand pulling the horse rope.
Duanmu Qingchen looked at Fu Mingrui's hand holding his hand, and smiled evilly: "Yo, Master Fu, I didn't expect you to really like me~~"
Fu Mingrui immediately withdrew his hand, and wrinkled his eyebrows angrily: "Okay, you go with me to investigate the case!" Fu Mingrui flicked the reins angrily and ran ahead.
Duanmu Qingchen smiled triumphantly behind him and immediately followed.
Guangyuan Town is outside the eastern suburbs of the capital. The urban area of the capital is very large, with a radius of 100 miles, so Guangyuan Town is also 100 miles away from the capital. When Fu Mingrui arrived, it was already noon.
Duanmu Qingchen followed closely behind Fu Mingrui, and his stomach was already a little hungry. But I still didn't see Fu Mingrui having the intention of stopping to eat.
When Fu Mingrui checked the file, she had already memorized the address of Yu Huanting's house. He has been handling cases in the capital all year round, and the map of the capital has long been printed in his heart, and there is no need to ask people when he passes through the streets and alleys.
Duanmu Qingchen has been following, not knowing where Fu Mingrui went. Just when he was puzzled, he saw Fu Mingrui stopped in front of the Yu family's mansion.
On the edge of the Yu family's mansion is the enlightened academy opened by Yu Hezhang, reading is for the enlightened and enlightened, and the two words enlightened are Yu Hezhang's good wishes for every student who enters the academy to study.
Fu Mingrui dismounted and tied the horse to the old banyan tree on the side. Duanmu Qingchen immediately followed.
Fu Mingrui was about to step forward and knock on the door, but saw the door open, and a doctor hurried out from inside, followed by Yu Hezhang with a tired and old face.
In the past three years, Yu Hezhang has also aged very fast, he is only middle-aged, but he is already old, describing himself as thin and gray.
The old doctor walked very fast, and waved his hand again and again: "Dean He, the old man is really poor in donkey skills, please ask for another master." The old doctor apologized again and again.
"Doctor Yao, please take a look again! Ya'er is really in pain and can't sleep, please be merciful!" Yu Hezhang, who had an old face, pulled the old doctor and pleaded bitterly.
The old doctor was also quite helpless, and sighed again and again: "Dean He, if I have this ability, how can I not want to heal Ya'er......'s poor child? Tsk, the old man really can't see what's wrong, the old man is really!
Yu Hezhang saw that the old doctor was really helpless, and Jiang Lang was exhausted, so he could only let go of the pain and salute the old doctor: "Thank you Dr. Yao." ”
"Oh, I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed......" the old doctor hid his face and walked away.
Fu Mingrui looked at the old doctor who left in a hurry, this is someone from the Yu family who is seriously ill. Listening to the conversation between the two, Ya'er was mentioned. This girl is Yu Huanting's eldest daughter, and she is also the only surviving child when Yu Huanting committed suicide by throwing herself into the river. The big name is Bai Yuqi, and the little name is Ya'er.
During the trial of Bai Zhankui's case of killing his father and mother, the confession of the villagers in Baijia Village mentioned Ya'er, saying that after Yu Huanting committed suicide, Ya'er was taken back to the Yu family by Yu Hezhang and his wife, and since then her surname has been changed to Yu. Because Ya'er was suffering from a strange illness and cried day and night, the Bai family thought that Ya'er might be able to find a better doctor to treat her grandfather when she went to town.
But what made Fu Mingrui strange was that not long after Ya'er was taken back, Bai Zhankui's family also moved into Guangyuan Town, the old house of the Yu family. Since the Bai family will move into Guangyuan Town, why don't they take care of Ya'er by themselves and hand over Ya'er to Yu Huanting's parents?
At that time, just because the main investigation was the case of Bai Zhankui's murder of his father and mother, Fu Mingrui put all his mind on solving the mystery of hanging in the secret room, but these details about Yu Huanting were rarely scrutinized. And now that the murderer in Fu Mingrui's heart is locked in Yu Huanting, Fang Jue's many confessions about the Bai family are full of suspicions.
Fu Mingrui hurriedly stepped forward and saw Yu Hezhang standing in the door with a sluggish face, his old face didn't look like he was in his early forties at all, but more like an old man in his sixties.
It is said that time makes people grow old, but it is a natural law to grow old with the years. This pain is really urging people to get old.
"Is it Dean Yu?" Fu Mingrui bowed as he entered the door.
Yu Hezhang raised his head sluggishly, and the pain of these years made his reaction slower and slower. He looked at Fu Mingrui for a while, only to see that he was wearing an official uniform with eight doors. And the embroidery on his sleeves and the gems on his belt prove that his rank was not low.
Yu Hezhang is the dean of the academy, and he naturally knows the official rank and official uniform.
He was stunned: "Are you ...... Eight Doors Door Master?"
Fu Mingrui nodded calmly: "It is here, I came here this time to ask some about your daughter Yu Huanting before her death." ”
When he heard his daughter's name, He Zhizhang immediately became excited: "Everyone is dead! What are you still asking?! What! I still want to say that the Bai family is my daughter's life! Get out! Get out!" He Zhizhang was furious, saw the broom by the door, grabbed it and waved it at Fu Mingrui, "Get out!"
After the death of Bai Zhankui's family, there was a lot of discussion everywhere in Guangyuan Town, saying that it was Yu Huanting's evil ghost collecting debts. Her daughter's life was bitter, and she will continue to be abused and stigmatized after her death, which is unbearable for anyone.
There are even more vicious people, saying that Ya'er's illness is because her mother has done too much evil, and she deserves it, and it is Yu Huanting's retribution for her sin, which is repaid on Ya'er.
The girl is only three years old, what is the crime? This day and night to bear the pain, it is already extremely pitiful, and they have to be criticized by those vicious people day by day, the old couple Yu is really haggard, bitter and sad.
Fu Mingrui was forced to withdraw from the door by Yu Hezhang's broom. The other party is an elder, and he Fu Mingrui is not good at fighting back.
Duanmu Qingchen shook his head again and again when he looked at it next to him, and couldn't help but remember that Fu Mingrui went to Saixian Pavilion before, but he couldn't enter the door, and he was teased by Lianyou.
Duanmu Qingchen stepped forward calmly and spoke when Yu Hezhang was about to close the door: "I know the imperial doctor!"
In a word, the door was wide open, revealing Yu Hezhang's face full of anticipation and excitement.
