Chapter 229: Servant

As he spoke, this person wanted to squeeze in front of Du Heng and wanted to take revenge on her.

"That's right! Brothers, that's her! We could have worked hard, but she's going to kill us! ”

Another person shouted out in dissatisfaction.

"Don't say that, Miss Song has saved a lot of us, and she is also for our good!"

But there are also many laborers who speak out for Du Heng.

"Shit! She saved a lot of people, but she didn't save me! Why should I die for her! ”

Compared with the people who Du Heng had treated, other laborers who had not received her treatment or were just some minor injuries gave up their principles, and exploded as they spoke, groping in the direction of Du Heng and squeezing towards her.

At this time, Du Heng also realized the urgency of the matter, knew that he could not change the deadlock, looked at the rioting laborers, an anxious look appeared in his eyes, his body was a little unstable, he wiped his hand on his body, found a pill, and handed it to Ran Niang's hand while he was in chaos.

"Ahh

"Miss Song! You just stay there, okay! It's also useless for you to do that! ”

Just when the crowd was most rioting, the leader of the soldiers saw this and quickly pulled Du Heng out and instructed his soldiers to control the situation.

After rescuing Du Heng, the leader had a cold face, and Du Heng raised his eyes and found that it was the person who had just spoken!

"It's you!" A hint of anger appeared in Du Heng's eyes.

"Oh, do you think you've saved them by not letting them go to the mine during the day? As everyone knows, the boss has already seen through your trick! ”

The leader turned a blind eye to the anger in Du Heng's eyes, sneered, and turned to look at the laborers who were almost under control.

There was a burst of disdain in his heart, if it weren't for what he said above, if he kept Du Heng, he wouldn't care about Du Heng's life or death, and let her know how the laborers she protected would react when they knew that they would die because of her stupidity.

And it turned out to be exactly the same as he had imagined!

Those people don't care how good Du Heng used to be to them, once their lives are in danger, they will only resent Du Heng, and even want to drag her to death!

That's human nature!

"Ahh Dead! Just as the rioters had been brought under control, there was a sudden scream from the crowd.

Everyone looked for prestige, and sure enough, when they saw a person lying on the ground, the leader immediately frowned, and walked over, and Du Heng also wanted to go up when he saw this, but at the moment he stepped forward, he seemed to think of something, so he took it back.

The scene fell into the leader's eyes, and there was mockery in his eyes.

Now you know that this is a pack of white-eyed wolves, right? Do you know how to be scared?

Leaving Du Heng's affairs behind, he came to the fallen laborer.

"What's going on!" The leader had a cold face, and his gaze fell on the man's face, and the man's skin was slowly turning pale at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The soldier who examined the man stood up at the right time, saluted him respectfully, and then said, "Commander, this man is dead!" ”

Hearing this, the leader was stunned and looked at the man.

It was a woman who died, who looked a little old, withered, and wrinkled, but her face was strangely pale, and her hands and feet were stiff.

There was no breath at all, and even a chill began to come from his body.

Confirmed the man. When she was really dead, the leader raised his hand and said, "Get her out of the way and go on!" ”

This night, there was a scream in the base, Du Heng secretly calculated an account in her heart every time she heard it, she did not leave, but stood not far from where they were buried alive, with her back to them, her hands clenched tightly, gritting her teeth, and swearing that she must make Prime Minister Qin pay the price of blood!

Although she couldn't prevent them from being killed, she rescued Ran Niang!

Just when they were looking forward to driving people, Du Heng's men secretly bought off the person who carried the 'corpse' and transferred Ran Niang away.

Then it was secretly sent out of the base.

That's the only thing she can do!

Lian Yi didn't know what was happening in the base here, and he was going to a private house outside the city with Gao Chen at the moment.

Through the investigation of the royal secret case, they found that a servant escaped after the accident at General Mo's house, so the two looked for it, hoping to get some clues.

"Who are you! Why are you standing on my doorstep? Just after the two arrived at the place, they just wanted to go up and knock on the door to ask, but there was a doubt behind them.

The two turned their heads to look and found an old man standing behind them, so they looked at each other and saw the joy in each other's eyes. Just go and listen to the book

This old man must be the servant of General Mo's family!

"Dare to ask the old man, but he used to work for General Mo's family?" Lian Yi's eyes were excited, he controlled his emotions and asked the old man in front of him.

When the old man heard Lian Yi's words, his eyes suddenly clouded, and his head tilted to the side, as if he was thinking about something.

"Mo family! Who are you? ”

When the old man talked about the Mo family, a trace of dazedness and nostalgia unconsciously appeared on his face, but when he realized that the other party was asking him about the Mo family, his face instantly closed, and the whole person suddenly became vigilant, staring at the two of them with a defensive face.

Seeing this, Lian Yi hurriedly stepped forward, "Don't be afraid, old man, I just want to know why General Mo died back then?" ”

But as soon as he said this, the guard on the face of the old man opposite became even stronger, "Who are you!" ”

When the old man heard them ask him about the cause of General Mo's death, the old man's expression became even more guarded, and his eyes revealed a trace of fear, he had been hiding here for so many years, were they still unwilling to let go of the Mo family?

When Gao Chen saw the old man like this, he obviously misunderstood, and stepped forward, "Don't be afraid, old man, we are not bad people." , This is Du Heng, the son of Xiaoyao, and I am the emperor's personal guard, so I came to ask you about the Mo family. ”

Gao Chen thought that if he said this, the other party would not be wary of them, but what surprised him was that the worry in the other party's eyes suddenly turned into anger, "What a free son, the bullshit emperor!" There's no one you're looking for! Let's go! Let's go! ”

When the old man heard Gao Chen's words revealing his identity, what appeared on his face was not shock, nor excitement, but it was to drive people away!

This made the two of them wonder, but this is nothing, the problem is that he dares to insult the emperor!

Gao Chen, as the emperor's secret guard, should maintain the emperor's authority, "Bold! The emperor and the prince, how can you insult them! ”

Gao Chen excitedly raised his knife and shook it a few times in front of the old man, the anger in his eyes made him eager to kill him on the spot!

Seeing this, the old man was not afraid, but straightened his already bent waist, and shouted at Gao Chen with his neck twisted: "Come on! Have the ability to cut at the old neck! I want to see how this royal family kills innocents indiscriminately! ”

"You!"

"Stop!" Lian Yi stretched out his hand to stop the excited Gao Chen, shook his head at him disapprovingly, and then took him. Tearing it apart, he faced the old man, "The old gentleman misunderstood, the emperor knew that General Mo had a grudge, so he specially ordered us to investigate this matter." ”

Seeing the old man's reaction, Lian Yi couldn't help but think of the reaction of Du Heng and Ran Niang in what he said, thinking that both of them had lost trust in the royal family!

However, that is all in the past, and what they have to do now is to find evidence and help General Mo overturn the case!

And after the old man heard Lian Yi's words, he was dumbfounded, and looked at Lian Yi in a daze, his straight back could no longer support it and began to droop slightly, but his head was stubbornly raised, just looking at him.

After seeing the sincerity in his eyes, the old man relented, sighed at them, and shouted in a lost voice: "Wish! Great wish! ”

The old man slapped his thigh violently, and until now when he mentioned General Mo, he was very sad.

Under the puzzled eyes of the two, the old man opened the door, then pushed the door and invited the two to enter.

"Back then, General Mo suddenly had an accident, and before the Mo Mansion could react, he was ordered by the emperor to raid his house for the crime of treason. Escaped. ”

As soon as the edict was promulgated, a pair of soldiers broke into the Mo family, without saying anything, and directly copied the Mo family, without even having time to react, the men of the Mo family were beheaded, and the women were reduced to slavery.

However, even now, he still can't believe that General Mo will collaborate with the enemy and commit treason! Someone must wish for him!

At the beginning, General Mo was guarding the border for the country, and he never returned home for several years, and the wives and children at home looked at each other one by one, and finally waited for him to come back, and he left again after staying for a few days.

He still remembered that his wife had asked the general, "Do you regret it?" ”

But what did General Mo answer at that time? "Mo Jiaerlang has been loyal to the country for generations, I have guarded the border and defended the country, what is there to regret, but I have suffered my wife and children!"

As he listened to this, he couldn't help but have tears in his eyes.

How loyal are their generals?

But no one could have imagined that one day when the news of his violent death came, it was only half a day before the emperor ordered his house to be raided!

Isn't this a great injustice?

And after listening to the old man's story, Lian Yi and Gao Chen both frowned, just looking at the speed of handling the case, there were many clues about this matter back then, and it seemed that someone deliberately did it.

"Don't worry, old man, we will definitely find out about this matter! It's just that I don't know if anyone knows the reason why General Mo died back then. ”

The story obtained from the old man can only be inferred that there is a clue to the matter, but it cannot be used as evidence.

And they don't know who the murderer is at the moment, and what is the cause of General Mo's death!

Therefore, what they have to do now is to find out the cause of General Mo's death back then!

The old man frowned and pondered for a moment, "I do know of someone!" That was the deputy general beside General Mo back then, Chen Ce! ”
