Chapter 38: The Traitor
Butler Ah Lai seemed very tired in the face of Meng Yuxin's repeated questioning, drooping his head, staring at the ground, and after a while, he shook his head and said, "I don't know... In the afternoon, I was patrolling outside my room, and suddenly a puff of blue smoke came in, and I only smelled it a little, and then I lost consciousness, and I really don't know what happened later. ”
Meng Yuxin let go of Ah Lai's collar, took a few steps back, and said coldly: "You are a good housekeeper!" I even lost my son! ”
Ah Lai was taken aback, and said in a trembling voice: "What? The son of the world is gone? ”
He Nuo and the others were a little disappointed when they didn't ask the slightest clue.
But Liao Jicang thought to himself: "Ah Lai's reaction is a bit exaggerated, right?" He was attacked for no reason, so it should be expected that something happened to the son, can he be so surprised? ”
Here, Meng Ruo waved his hand at Liao Jicang and said, "Imperial Doctor Liao, is there anyone waiting for you to save you?" ”
Liao Jicang followed Meng Ruo's gesture and looked over, knowing that she was talking about the wolf called "Cangling", and nodded, the people of Canglang Department love wolves, as everyone knows in this world, Liao Jicang did not slack off, and after a careful investigation, he found that Cangling was also in the "Qingyingsan", remembering that the teacher saw this at a glance just now, and thought that the gap between me and the teacher was still more than a star and a half.
Liao Jicang then took some of He Nuo's blood and adjusted the medicine to treat Cang Ling.
He Nuo was helpless about this, but he still stretched out his arm without hesitation.
Seeing this, Meng Ruo whispered, "Thank you." ”
He Nuo shook his head, a little cramped.
Maybe it's because Cang Ling's physique is more robust, just after taking the antidote made by Liao Jicang, it didn't take long for Cang Ling's eyes that had been closed slowly opened, and he used his front paws to dig the ground, and then his hind feet supported him and stood up.
Meng Ruo touched Cang Ling's head distressedly, and said in a low voice: "Don't be too reluctant, you can rest on your stomach for a while." ”
Cang Ling searched the surroundings with his eyes, and suddenly, he looked in a direction, and rushed over with an arrow!
Such a sudden change surprised everyone, and their eyes followed the spirit closely.
He Nuo saw that Cang Ling was actually heading towards Liao Xingyun who was standing in the middle, his heart was not good, Liao Jicang was worried about his daughter, and shouted behind his back, "Come back, come back!" He was a little worried about whether the wolf had suddenly gone crazy and bitten people.
But He Nuo hugged his arms, watched Cang Ling's movement, and did not give any instructions.
Wow......
Cang Ling jumped up, and actually passed by Liao Xingyun, and ran directly to Ah Lai, the housekeeper behind her!
Ah Lai was a little worried from the moment Cang Ling suddenly moved, and when he finally found out that he was the target of the attack, he hurriedly took a few steps back, intending to run away, but his speed was not as fast as Cang Ling.
Cang Ling stepped forward directly, biting Ah Lai's leg fiercely, a neat drag, Ah Lai screamed, fell directly to the ground, hugged his leg with both hands and begged for mercy, and a wail sounded.
Seeing this scene, Meng Ruo seemed to understand something, took a step forward, looked at Ah Lai with cold eyes, and said, "Did you poison the food and cause Cang Ling to fall into a coma?" ”
Meng Yuxin even kicked Ah Lai directly in the chest and scolded: "Dead traitor!" I can't imagine that we Canglang actually have a scum like you! ”
He Nuo didn't understand why this sudden change was at first, but after a little thought, he realized that Cang Ling was very spiritual and never ate food sent by strangers, and just now Liao Yin had already diagnosed that Ah Lai was hit by Qing Mingsan added to the food, and it was expected that it must have been done by an acquaintance.
Originally, in this way, Meng Xiaochen's friends seemed to be under suspicion, but as soon as Cang Ling woke up, he attacked Ah Lai, obviously because he was poisoned by him, thinking of this, the doubts of these problems were finally solved.
Meng Yuxin took a step forward and shouted at Ah Lai: "Tell the truth! Otherwise, I'll let you slowly experience what it's like to betray someone. ”
Ah Lai's face was a little pale, curled up in a ball on the ground, and pleaded: "I said, I said, I was also forced, I was only responsible for stunning the spirit, and I didn't know anything else!" ”
Meng Yuxin turned over and kicked Ah Lai again, shouting: "Tell everything you know, if you dare to hide it?" Hum! ”
Ah Lai shook his head and said, "I really only know so much, but..." Ah Lai seemed to be anxious to say something more to save his life, "The prince should not be in danger of his life, otherwise they will directly deal with him here, as for the reason why they kidnapped the deceased son, in addition to wanting to trigger the war between Canglang and Jinyang, they also want to use this to blackmail my Canglang Ministry." ”
"Phew!" Meng Yuxin scolded, "Who dares to blackmail my Canglang Department? Who are 'they' you talking about? ”
Meng Ruo on the side added, "Don't say 'I canglang', are you worthy?" Obviously, for this person who betrayed his brother, Meng Ruo looked down on him in his heart.
Ah Lai knew that he couldn't anger anyone anymore at this time, so he followed Meng Yuxin's words and said, "I'm just a little person, and I promised to give me 30,000 silver coins after the matter is completed." ”
Meng Ruo scolded: "You betrayed your master for 30,000 coins? Something that knows no shame! ”
Ah Lai did not dare to argue anything, and continued, "Their behavior is very mysterious, and they are all dressed in black, but..." Ah Lai recalled, "They all have a badge pinned to the left side of their chests, a silver moon-shaped backing, and the word 'mirror' is written on it. ”
"Oh?" Hearing this, Meng Yuxin stopped scolding, and thoughtfully, he knew very well the silver moon-shaped backing, but what he saw in the past was the word "Sichuan" written on it.
At this time, Liao Xingyun suddenly made a strange move and took out a badge from his arms.
Everyone was surprised by her actions, but when they looked closely, they were speechless.
It turned out that the badge that Liao Xingyun took out was actually a silver moon-shaped backing, with a word written on it: "Xiao." ”
"Sister Liao, what is this?" Meng Ruo asked.
Liao Xingyun bit his lip, glanced at his father, and finally said, "I have been able to avoid Liao Yin's harassment all these years, all because of this?" ”
"Do you know what this is?" Meng Ruo asked.
Liao Xingyun shook his head, "This is a gift from an elder named Xue Muqing when I was fourteen years old. Speaking of this, even Liao Xingyun's voice was a little fascinating, "Ji Fu recited, Mu is like a breeze, that is really a fairy-like character." ”
But Liao Jicang walked a few steps and snatched the badge from his daughter's hand, his voice trembling a little, "Silly daughter, do you know what this is?" This is the coat of arms of Van Luo! ”
"Van Luo, as soon as he heard this, everyone's faces changed."
He Nuo had heard others talk about Van Luo countless times, but he never understood it, so he asked, "What is Van Luo?" Imperial Doctor Liao, can you tell us more about it? ”
Liao Jicang hesitated.
At this time, Meng Yuxin spoke, "Knowing the ins and outs of the whole thing will help to save Xiaochen, and I also ask Imperial Doctor Liao to know everything." Speaking of this, Meng Yuxin paused and said, "No matter how this matter ends in the end, Imperial Doctor Liao is the great benefactor of my Canglang Department!" ”
Liao Jicang waved his hand, pondered for a while, and said: "Our Liao family has too much to do with Fanluo, and we know a little more about it than others...... It's far more mysterious than you might think. ”
