Chapter 196: Mu Xiyao was arrested, and Xiao Yao hanged herself
"You! What are you talking about to a girl's house! Mu Xijun, who was detained, snorted angrily at the man.
"What did I say? Did you hear that? The man laughed.
"Nope."
"I didn't hear that."
"It's too windy, I can't hear what you're talking about."
The man approached the scholar and asked threateningly, "You... Hear what I just said? β
"Uh..." Siyi was stunned by his question, and didn't speak for a while.
Before the scholar could speak, the man said, "You see, even the scholar who likes to tell the truth the most can't tell what I just said!" Detective... Don't spew blood! β
"You guys!"
"Search for me! There must be a cellar here! If you can't find it, don't rest, everyone! β
"Ahββ?!h The crowd dragged out their voices in frustration.
"Ahh The shouter's face was embarrassed, and he stiffened up and said, "Anyway, if these people hand it over, we will be rewarded for more or less!" β
Everyone pouted, leaving two people in place to guard Qian Qianqian and the other three, and the rest went to search.
"It's not! You can't! This is a trespass! "Frost really wants to stop these people. But under the high reward, everyone was red-eyed and pushed her away: "Get out!" Delay us to get rich, we will kill you! β
Some even showed their sabers directly.
Under the threat of her life, Shuang'er could only helplessly stop her steps, looking anxiously into the house. Don't be found! Million!
Unfortunately, the sky is not satisfactory.
"Help!"
A terrible scream completely exposed Mu Xiyao's position to everyone's eyes.
"Boss, here!" An official walked over to a stack of straws and opened them, revealing the red cloth underneath.
"There must be something strange in the grass in the house!" The leader pondered for a while, and gave an order: "Remove all this grass for me!" I'm going to see what's up there! β
They removed the haystack and opened the planks under the red cloth.
"Boss! Sure enough, there are authentics! There should be someone hiding down there! As soon as the man shouted, he heard a chirping sound from below.
What's that?
Everyone looked at it curiously.
With a whoosh, a large unidentified object popped out.
"I'm dripping mom!"
The official at the head screamed, only to feel shocked. When I looked at it again, it was a black mouse that was shiny and shiny!
No way... How much grain did you eat to grow so big?
The official tiptoed over to the big rat who was combing his hair, carefully drew his saber, and stabbed it fiercely. "Dare to scare me, Lao Tzu will chop you to death!"
Tsk β
The rat screamed and died.
The people outside the house heard the terrible sound
called, rushed to come.
Seeing this huge rat that died unexpectedly, Qian Qianqian and Shuang'er covered their mouths at the same time and looked at the cellar.
Xi Yao/Miss is all right?!
At this time, someone had already entered.
The scholar thought about seeing the huge dead rat and seeing the blood all over the ground, so he kicked his legs and passed out.
Mu Xijun glanced at him with contempt.
"Boss! Man found! From the entrance to the cellar, there was a roar.
"Then get the people out of here! Don't waste time! β
"But... But..."
"But what! Be clear, don't be crooked! β
"Boss! The man passed out! β
"I'll you! Your boss is good on it! You're just fainting! β
"No, I said the girl had fainted! A girl who is exactly the same as the painting on the paper! β
The leader chuckled in his heart. True... Are there really fairies?
He shouted again, "Then why don't you hurry up and pick her up!" Here we go! β
"Boss! Men and women don't kiss! I... I haven't married a daughter-in-law yet, I'm nervous..."
When the people in the house heard this, they burst into laughter.
"It's useless!"
"I... I'll go," Frost asked tentatively. The young lady actually fainted down there, what was in there?
The officer glanced at her. "Hurry up! Don't try to do anything! β
The hole in the cellar can only be passed by one person. It took a lot of effort for Shuang'er and the official messenger inside to push Mu Xiyao, who had fainted, up.
...
"Huh? You said you caught the prisoner on the paper? β
The Beijing officials sitting in the official mansion glanced at those officials.
"Yes, yes!"
"Oh, catch a person for ten taels of silver, this is a pass. Go to the vault and get it yourself! If anyone finds out that they have taken too much, they will not have any good fruit for you. β
"Uh..."
"No, sir! That's three court felons! Ten taels for one person..."
"What's wrong, not satisfied?"
"It's... Satisfied, satisfied! Goodbye, adults! β
"Made's bad luck!" Those people who left the official mansion all spat hatefully, "Ten taels per person, each of us will take thirty taels, this money is not enough for tooth sacrifice!" β
"Forget it! Mess with him, we won't even get a reward, brothers! Drink and go! β
"Let's go!"
...
Na Jingguan originally wanted to interrogate Qian Qianqian and the others directly. The master beside him whispered to him for a while.
"Are you telling the truth?" Jingguan was a little surprised.
I didn't expect these people to even pay attention to Lord Ye Xiangye!
The master nodded.
"It's good that there was no presumptuous interrogation." Jingguan wiped the cold sweat from his head. Think about Ye Xiang's character... Forget it, let's talk about it in a few days!
When Mu Xiyao woke up from the excessive fright, it was already the third day of being caught.
"This isβ" She looked around a little confused. I remember that I was in the cellar and saw a lot of cobwebs, some of the grain was moldy, and there were some small white flesh chirping insects wriggling on it. The ground was a little damp, and even some worms crawled over their insteps ...
Immediately after, a mouse the size of a hydrangea bulging mouse suddenly popped out, looking at him with a green light in his eyes. I was so scared that I ran to the exit, and later... I feel like I'm fainting...
This wakes up... Doesn't it look like it's in a cellar?
"Miss, you're finally awake! It's scared to death! Frost whined and pounced on her and hugged her.
"Frost... I'm fine now..."Mu Xiyao patted her back lightly, looking at Qian Qianqian and Mu Xijun with confusion in her eyes. "What's wrong with you? Why are you all sad? β
"Xi Yao, haven't you seen where this is?" Qian Qianqian smiled bitterly at her. However, in fact, she was puzzled in her heart.
It stands to reason that regardless of whether Mu Xiyao is in a coma or not, that Beijing official should be directly interrogated. But the Jingguan handed them over to Ye Shuqiu?
Ye Shuqiu is also a weirdo. He and the others were about to be summoned, but he didn't expect him to hear that Mu Xiyao was still in a coma, and he actually sent someone to say that she would wake up and try again? Even he himself came here and asked about Mu Xiyao's situation before leaving...
This... Qian Qianqian was also confused.
Whenever I see Ye Shuqiu, I feel that this person doesn't have the frame of a prime minister. But the whole person is mysterious, wearing a silver mask with no facial features every day, wearing a cyan unicorn robe, and talking to people lukewarmly.
Every time I listen to the gossip told by those palace maids, it seems that this prime minister has no family, let alone a marriage, and he can't even see a maid by his side? No, he didn't get married, so what's the matter with the previous two marriages?
Qian Qianqian is really confused.
"Where is this?" Mu Xiyao asked suspiciously.
"It's Anhua Palace, how to say... It's a cold palace, right? Mu Xijun also smiled bitterly. Somehow, everything here was familiar to him, and he could say it casually.
Why did Ye Shuqiu arrange them to the emperor's cold palace?
"Anwar..."Mu Xiyao was stunned. This... Have you been caught?
"Girl, Ye Xiangtuo is here to ask you, has Miss Mu woken up?" At this time, a greeting came from outside the door.
"I... Not. β
As soon as Mu Xiyao wanted to speak, she was covered by Qian Qianqian.
Qian Qianqian shouted outside the door: "Not yet!" Thank you! β
"It's not hard
, not hard! β
The footsteps faded away.
Mu Xiyao looked at Qian Qianqian in confusion.
"Now, let's talk about it. Since Ye Shuqiu can do this, it shows that he can win favor in the eyes of the current emperor. Also, Xi Yao. Qian Qianqian looked at Mu Xiyao and continued: "Although I don't know why Ye Shuqiu is so good to us? But I'm sure it has a lot to do with you! β
"Connected to me?" Mu Xiyao's eyes were stunned.
"Yes..."
And the other side.
"Ye Xiang, that girl hasn't woken up yet."
"Okay, I know the true appearance, you can step back first!"
"Huh."
"Sure enough, you still care about her." Xiao Yao looked at Ye Shuqiu's eyes, a little strange.
"When she wakes up, it's time to interrogate." Ye Shuqiu sighed.
"Why do you still do this if you don't want to?!" Xiao Yao's tone was very dissatisfied.
"Cousin, you don't understand." Ye Shuqiu looked out the window and muttered in a low voice: "Now this big beam, people's hearts are still unstable. Some tough measures are needed to set an example to the chickens and monkeys. β
"Are you using this reason to interrogate my daughter! Someone you like! Xiao Yao's voice was a little louder.
"It's something that can't be helped."
"Ye Shuqiu, you have changed. You don't even know your cousin anymore. Where is that Ye Shuqiu more than ten years ago! Xiao Yao sneered.
Ye Shuqiu turned around, and there was no trace of emotion in his gaze under the mask. "I'm changed, haven't you changed? Hehe, we've all changed. Especially, since my best loved ones died at the hands of the Emperor of the Northern Capital... I've become more will-wrenching in my ends. β
"I kind of got it." Xiao Yao was a little frustrated. "You're crazy, you're no longer a flesh-and-blood person. Let's not talk about that. How can you let my daughter go? β
"There is no way, the law is so."
"What if... Is it my life? β
Hearing this, Ye Shuqiu's body paused. After a while, he said, "If you really want to... Then I can make him confess in front of the emperor. β
"Hahahaha!" Xiao Yao smiled. She smiled sadly. "Ye Shuqiu, Ye Shuqiu, do you think you are deceiving a three-year-old child? Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this emperor is just a puppet! You're the real mastermind! You even say... Haha, hahaha! β
Ye Shuqiu was silent.
"Where's the medicine?" Xiao Yao looked at him coldly, "Don't tell me, you didn't even bring the medicine that killed you." β
"Why are you doing this?" Ye Shuqiu's mouth, somehow, was filled with a trace of bitterness. He turned around and opened the door, leaving Xiao Yao with a back, "I hope cousin, you think twice and don't make orders."
Something you regret. β
"I regret it? I regret it! Hahaha! Xiao Yao laughed self-deprecatingly, "I regret it, I regret why I didn't teach my daughter well in the first place, and I actually made her like you, a ruthless person who knows people and knows faces!" β
Hearing this, Ye Shuqiu's heart was filled with a trace of anger.
"Do it yourself!" With that, he slammed the door and left in a rage.
"Ye Shuqiu! You'll regret it! You'll regret it! Xiao Yao in the room was like a crazy demon, crying and laughing.
"Ye Xiang..."
"Watch her!"
"Huh."
It's night.
Ye Shuqiu is reviewing the folds.
Suddenly, a person ran in in a panic. "My lord! My lord! β
"What's wrong?" Ye Shuqiu continued to review the folds.
"People... That lady, hang yourself! β
Ye Shuqiu's hand shook, leaving a mark on the fold. You... Or chose this path...
"Your Excellency?"
"Drag it out and bury it." Ye Shuqiu said without raising his head. There was no trace of emotion in his tone. "Don't let anyone find out. Also, you are ready to go to Anhua Palace to see that girl Mu in person tomorrow. β
"Huh."
After the people left, Ye Shuqiu irritably pushed the mountain of twists and turns to the ground.

Wonderful!
