Yang Xiaoyu nodded, talked to Yang Yong for a while, and then left the study and came towards Mrs. Fang's courtyard!

Mrs. Fang's courtyard was lit with faint lights, and several maidservants stood at the gate of the courtyard looking around, looking anxious, as if they were expecting something!

With Yang Xiaoyu's unhurried pace, a maidservant girl took the lead in seeing that the person who came was the young master, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Young master, Madam has been waiting for you for a long time when she learned that you are back!" ”

Yang Xiaoyu nodded, followed the maidservant into the courtyard, and walked towards Mrs. Fang's bedroom.

"Mother, are you alright?" Yang Xiaoyu came in and saw Mrs. Fang leaning on the bed in a trance, so she hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

When Mrs. Fang heard Yang Xiaoyu's words, she came back to her senses and hurriedly grabbed Yang Xiaoyu's hand: "Yu'er, are you okay?" ”

"Look, mother, the child is well!" Yang Xiaoyu broke free of Mrs. Fang's hand, spun around on the ground, jumping up and down, and there was nothing to do in her body!

"Don't offend people casually in the future!" Mrs. Fang saw her son jumping around, her cloudy face was full of smiles, and she hurriedly admonished.

Yang Xiaoyu knew that his mother was for his good, and said with a smile: "Mother rest assured, the child will not offend people, this time it is Wang Jing who wants to seize the child in exchange for his son's life, and the child is also forced to do so!" ”

"No matter what, it's always bad to offend people, you have to make more friends with people in the future!" A heartwarming smile rose on Mrs. Fang's face, and she smiled softly.

Yang Xiaoyu talked with Mrs. Fang for a while, and then wanted to say goodbye and leave, but who knew that Mrs. Fang's face was slightly angry: "You haven't made it clear who the woman in the Spring Building is?" I just want to go back to accompany that fox girl? ”

"Mother, you are too worried, the child has never known any woman in the Spring Building, how can you go back to accompany her?"

"You still want to deceive your mother, Chunxia came to the house at noon to complain, saying that you didn't return overnight, and in the afternoon brought a woman with unknown origin back to the house, is this also false?"

"Mother, Chunxia doesn't know the truth, that woman is a master who was found by the child from the rivers and lakes, and she specially protects the child, how can it be unidentified, besides, the child drank with Wang Xu and Liang Shengjiang the night before yesterday, and only because she drank too much, she lived in Lord Wang's house!"

"Are you telling the truth?"

"Of course, mother, how could a child lie to you?"

"That's good, your father sent someone to Yangzhou a few days ago to propose marriage to you, it is estimated that the letter will be sent back in the next few days, and you have to settle down during this time, so as not to spread false rumors and damage your reputation!"

"The child got it!"

Mrs. Fang's face softened slightly, and she told the maid to go down to prepare the meal, she wanted to leave Yang Xiaoyu for dinner!

In desperation, Yang Xiaoyu had to accompany Mrs. Fang to say a word in the east and a sentence in the west, saying things that didn't hurt or itch!

Fortunately, after dinner, Mrs. Fang only gave a few words of advice, and then let Yang Xiaoyu leave.

It is said that the mother is fickle, but the heart is kind, this is not false at all, Mrs. Fang's face changed several times in one night, but when she was eating, she was full of smiles, and kept putting food in Yang Xiaoyu's bowl!

Yang Xiaoyu walked out of the gate of the Yang Mansion and sighed secretly: "Adoptive mother is like a mother!" ”

Outside the gates!

A group of guards stood by the carriage, carefully watching the surrounding movements!

The only thing is that the bright moon is gone!

Yang Xiaoyu almost didn't have to guess, and knew that Mingyue was sitting in the car!

Because she didn't dare to leave without permission!

got into the carriage, and sure enough, Mingyue sat in the carriage with her eyes closed and recuperated, without the consciousness of a servant girl at all!

After Yang Xiaoyu sat down, he ordered the guards to drive back to the house!

On the second day, Yang Xiaoyu sent Wang Chong to look for a tattoo master in Hangzhou City!

Tattoos were not popular in the Ming Dynasty, so it is extremely difficult to find people who know this kind of craft!

Fortunately, there are many talented people in Jiangnan, and it is not difficult to find a tattoo master!

In the afternoon, Wang Chong led a sixty-year-old man to the house, the old man had a gray beard and a faint green air in his eyebrows!

Of course Yang Xiaoyu knew why, but he didn't want to tell the old man, he was afraid that if he said this, the old man would not dare to go, after all, it is a very unfortunate thing to stab a lotus flower on the body of a dead person, and no one likes to earn this kind of bad luck!

Yang Xiaoyu promised the old man fifty taels of silver afterwards, and then led the old man to the Yamen of the Judge!

According to the judicial department in charge of the criminal law of a province, it accepts all kinds of dead people, although Wang Jing was a member of the imperial court before his death, but after his death, he was no different from ordinary people!

Yang Xiaoyu rode his horse to the front of the Yamen of the Judge, and the guards quickly invited the old man out of the carriage!

More than 20 officials hung swords from their waists, going back and forth in front of the yamen!

One of the leading officials walked down and said: "This is the place where the yamen has passed, if there is nothing important, leave quickly!" ”

"This official Yang Xiaoyu, if you have something to ask to see the envoy Wang, I am tired of it!"

"Please wait, sir!"

A person who can be called an official, no matter how old he is, must be a high-grade court official, and the official is just a junior official of the yamen, so he naturally does not dare to be disrespectful to the official!

After a long while, the official returned and arched his hand: "Lord Wang, please Lord Yang, please come in and speak!" ”

Yang Xiaoyu instructed Wang Chong to wait here with the old man, and he went first to meet the envoy!

After passing through the long corridors, turning a few corners, and coming to a courtyard, the officials invited Yang Xiaoyu to enter!

Yang Xiaoyu nodded, strode forward, walked to the door in the middle, and said loudly: "Xiaguan Yang Xiaoyu has seen Lord Wang!" ”

A hearty laugh came from the room: "It's Yang Xian's nephew, come in!" ”

Yang Xiaoyu gently pushed the room open, bent down slightly and walked in, the room was simply furnished, a few tables and chairs, many necessary furnishings, and nothing else!

An elegant middle-aged man in his forties sat at his desk and smiled approvingly at him!

Yang Xiaoyu looked up at this person, elegant and elegant, eyebrows like two sharp swords separated above the corners of the eyes, the heavenly court is full, the seal hall is shining, and the life palace is yellow, giving people a very peaceful feeling!

It is hard to imagine that an official who deals with the prison all day long will have such a peaceful atmosphere, he seems to be like a neighbor's parent, magnanimous, and extraordinary!

"The little nephew has seen Uncle Wang!" Yang Xiaoyu bowed.

"Xiaoyu, I am friends with your father, you come to your uncle, it is the same as you are at home, you don't need to be so polite!" The middle-aged man laughed and asked Yang Xiaoyu to sit down!

"Uncle Wang, the little nephew came here this time to see Wang Jing's corpse!"

"Your father has sent a letter about this matter, you can go and see it, your uncle will send officials to guard the gate, so that no one will disturb you!"

"Uncle Xie!"

Yang Xiaoyu accompanied the middle-aged man to talk for a while, feeling that the hour was almost up, and the middle-aged man also had something to do, so he got up and said goodbye!

Out of the courtyard, Yang Xiaoyu did not delay, and hurriedly asked the official in front of the door to bring Wang Chong and the old man in!

It was the first time for the old man to come to this kind of high mansion lobby, and he was worried in his heart, for fear that something would go wrong!

Fortunately, Wang Chong behind him always reminded the old man, asking him not to look at those officials who were standing on duty, and to walk with peace of mind!

When he came to the morgue, the official opened the door and led Yang Xiaoyu and his party in!

When the old man saw that this was the underworld where the corpse was staying, he trembled and said, "This son, aren't we tattooed?" What are you doing in a place like this? ”

There were two coffins in the room, and the corpses were placed on them, but the corpses were covered with white cloths, and the faces could not be seen at all!

Yang Xiaoyu didn't answer, but asked the officials to remove the white cloth from the two corpses, revealing the dead bodies!
