Chapter 161: I want to help you
Since then, he has been keeping this secret and this family to the letter.
I thought that as long as I was careful enough, I could protect the people I wanted to protect for the rest of my life.
But I'm still too naΓ―ve.
Atletico and Hongmei sat opposite each other for a full night.
The next morning, as soon as I went out, I encountered clouds pretending to be walking.
"It's morning, Lord Ma."
Yun Duoduo couldn't help but say hello first, at this juncture, she was really worried that Atletico Madrid would do something unusual or excessive.
Maybe he will hate himself and blame himself for seducing Hongmei and breaking the secret he wants to keep and the people he wants to guard, but in fact, Yun Duoduo is also angry in his heart.
Of course, she can't accept the love between mother and son, and she can't accept it, her brother-in-law is a two-faced.
Hmph, if it weren't for the fact that Hongmei now has a vital role in the case as a key witness, she wouldn't have spoken to him in a low voice.
Looking at Atletico Madrid's grim face, Yun Duoduo felt that he was going to return in vain.
"Miss Yun, please come down."
Unexpectedly, he got a reply from Atletico Madrid.
Yun Duoduo was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted, did this Atletico want to open?
Atletico came to the study with the clouds, poured a cup of hot tea, and sighed.
"If I hand someone over to you, will you be able to keep her safe?"
Atletico asked suddenly.
Yun Duoduo was overjoyed, it seems that this guy has figured it out.
"Master Ma, I can't give you a 100% guarantee, but I swear that Hongmei is with me."
Atletico Madrid's eyes flashed when she saw her, obviously no matter how nice the words were, they were not as good as Yun Duoduo's words at this moment.
He sighed.
Slowly bring him and Hongmei's past together.
After listening, let Yun Duoduo also be slowly moved, feeling that they were a pair of hard-working mandarin ducks.
Obviously love each other, but for various reasons they can't really be together, etiquette rules, and secret shackles, all of which put a deep gap between them.
Hey, what's more worrying than seeing it every day but not touching it.
In the end, the clouds uncontrollably shed two lines of tears.
Atletico looked at Yun Duoduo, as if he saw that the story he told moved her, and then continued with reassurance: "Miss Yun, I discussed with Hongmei, and she is willing to come out to testify, but I hope you can guarantee Hongmei's safety." β
Yun Duoduo was very happy when he heard this, and quickly nodded: "Okay, I will definitely do my best, and I firmly believe that as long as this case is revealed, your relationship with Hongmei can also be exposed." β
Atletico shook his head with a sigh: "I am content to be able to save her life, and I don't dare to expect too much." β
When Yun Duoduo heard this, he secretly decided to help the pair of hard-working mandarin ducks.
Speaking of which, the most unlucky thing about this Hongmei is that she knows something about the case of the three princes.
"Then, let Miss Hongmei tell me about the situation at that time, right?"
Ma Jing thought for a while: "Hongmei's mood is still unstable now, Ma is about to go to the court now, wait until Ma comes back from the court to accompany her, and tell you what she knew at that time." β
Yun Duoduo thought for a moment and nodded, "It's okay." β
Anyway, they have already figured it out, and this matter can't be rushed, so let her slow it down first.
She might as well discuss the next countermeasures with King Wu.
Atletico Madrid went straight up after separating from the clouds.
Yun Duoduo looked around the attic, and then redeployed the Red Armor Army to focus on protecting the attic.
Only then did he return to the room with peace of mind, and looked at King Wu's injury, the wound was still red and swollen, because he forced himself to get out of bed before, and the wound that was about to scab over was cracked again, fortunately, it is now winter, and it has been snowing heavily for several days, the weather is cold, and the wound is not inflamed.
After seeing the still sleeping Martial King, Yun Duoduo went to see Xiao K next door again, and because he didn't replenish his energy for several days, Xiao K also fell into a coma.
This can't help but make Yun Duoduo faintly worried, if the Martial King is injured and has not recovered, and Xiao K is temporarily out of power, then how can he ensure the safety of Hongmei?
Although it was said that the Red Armor Army and the secret guards of the palace were in battle together, they still felt faintly worried. In the front, Xiao Wanbing was eyeing the tiger, and then there was a man in black secretly attacking, and the real people behind the scenes were hiding in the corner and waiting for the rabbit, all of which were not easy to deal with.
But although Yun Duoduo has always had Xiao K's help since the crossing, fortunately, she doesn't rely on Xiao K for everything, so now looking at the current situation, Yun Duoduo decisively feels that she will use her own strength and intelligence to carefully protect this witness.
Yun Duoduo was a man of action, and after she locked herself in her room for a few hours to write and draw, she lay on the head of King Wu's bed and muttered to him for a long time, and then rushed out of the room at dawn.
Looking at her back as she ran out, King Wu moved his lips, but he didn't call her after all.
.................
In an inn on Yong'an Street, in an airtight room, two women were standing and sitting.
One was veiled, the other looked timid.
"Is that all you get to hear?" The masked woman asked.
"Yes girl, the little girl speculates that there must be something wrong in that attic."
"What do you think is the problem?"
"The little girl thinks that the person hidden in the attic may be the one who knew what happened back then, which is why Atletico Madrid will take such a cautious look."
The masked woman's eyes were cold: "Oh? It is true that one of the palace maids released from the three princes' bedrooms was missing, maybe that person. You're going to have to find a way to cooperate with us to get people over, understand? β
The woman standing looked cautious and nodded quickly: "Understood." β
Yun Duoduo had been waiting for Atletico near the attic for an afternoon, and she couldn't wait for Atletico to come back and go to Hongmei to ask her what she knew back then.
Seeing that it was getting dark, Atletico Madrid did not return. Yun Luoluo sent her a cloak, and her eyes flashed with pity: "Second sister, what are you doing, why bother tossing your body, can't you enter the house on such a cold day?" Thanks to the third sister's reminder, otherwise I wouldn't have known that you had been drenched in snow here for a day. β
Yun Duoduo was stunned: "Oh? Is Yun Nixia still here? β
Yun Luoluo was puzzled: "Of course, she came with me, of course she left with me." β
Yun Duoduo nodded, put on the cloak, and then thought of something: "Luoluo Horse Mansion has not been peaceful these days, tomorrow you take Yun Nixia back to the county lord's mansion quickly, I set up a lot of organs in the county lord's mansion, you stay there well, don't go out and remember?" β
Yun Luoluo was puzzled, but he had to nod obediently.
After waiting for a while, Atletico has not returned, it is already dark. Yun Duoduo was a little anxious, and he couldn't care about anything, so he rushed directly to the attic.
However, before she could enter the courtyard, she heard a clamor from inside.
"It's water, it's water."
The clouds chuckled in their hearts.
hurriedly rushed in.
....................
When Atletico returned, they saw that something was wrong in the house, and there was a faint smell of smoke and fire floating in the air.
He instantly felt his heart sink to the bottom.
Like a restless speculation, the clouds walked out of the attic with a depressed face.
"What's wrong?" He asked, shocked.
"The attic is out of the water."
Atletico's face turned pale all of a sudden: "What's the matter?" How can you walk the water, then, what about people? β
Yun Duoduo showed an extremely ugly expression: "The person is gone." β
Atletico suddenly felt a sound in his ears, and his body was shaky, if it weren't for Yun Duoduo's quick hands to help him, he would have fallen.
Atletico didn't know how they walked back to the room in a daze.
His mind was full of one sentence, no one was gone, no one was gone.
"Didn't you say you'd do your best to protect her? Why? β
He stared at the clouds with red eyes.
"I didn't expect the enemy to move so quickly, but don't worry, I will definitely get the people back."
Atletico sneered: "Useless, useless ......"
Yun Duoduo looked at him wanting to cry without tears, and wanted to step forward to comfort him, but he was driven out by his cold scolding.
Yun Duoduo sighed.
Turning around and walking back to his room, King Wu was already sitting on the bed, looking at her with a tired look and frowning distressedly, he stretched out his hand: "Come here, give this king a hug." β
Yun Duoduo suddenly felt that his eyes were moist, and tears of grievance were about to burst out of his eyes.
She plunged into King Wu's arms before her mood calmed down.
"What a stupid girl, in fact, you don't have to fight like this, this king naturally has a way to deal with them."
"No, I want to help you."
"Fool, when this matter settles, will this king marry you?"
Yun Duoduo sniffed: "Didn't someone ask me to sign a contract not to marry for three years?" β
"Fool, the contract forbids you to marry someone else, and it doesn't mean that you can't marry this king."
Yun Duoduo snorted and laughed, what a scoundrel.
The next day, Atletico took a leave of absence and did not go to court. Yun Duoduo looked at the chaotic Ma Mansion, and sent Yun Luoluo and Yun Nixia back to the county lord's mansion in person.
Then he went to Jing Zhaoyin to discuss things with Lord Wan.
There are no fatalities in the capital these days, but the New Year is only eight days away.
Emperor Wen naturally did not want to let this murder case be solved until next year, so he made a fate, and ordered Lord Wan to solve the case before the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve.
happened to be in time for Concubine Xiao Guifei to give birth, so she could welcome the birth of the new prince with peace of mind.
There is a lot of pressure on the side of the people.
And just when Yun Duoduo was conspiring with Wan Daren, news suddenly came that another minister in the capital had died.
Yun Duoduo and Wan Daren, who received the news, both had solemn faces.
"Looks like we're going to have to pick things up."
Yun Duoduo nodded: "I can't give those people a chance anymore." β
...........
At this time, Xiao Wanbing was looking at the woman in front of her in surprise.
"Father, isn't this woman?"
Mrs. Xiao carefully looked at the woman who had passed out on the ground, and nodded with a smile: "It should be right." A dancing girl who was very close to the third prince back then, your aunt once found someone to paint her portrait, and it was her who my father had seen. At the beginning, she accompanied the three princes every day during that time, and she was released from the palace that year, and soon those dancing girls who went out of the palace with her were hunted down and killed, and your aunt suspected it at that time, some of these people must have known something or done something, so they were assassinated. But she also sent people to find them, and none of them were missing. β
"Then now we will wake her up immediately, interrogate her, get a confession, and then go to face the saint."
