Chapter 347: Life or Death?
Wei Shuying still has concerns, "But the rumors outside are that people are dead, and now they say that people are still alive, so he won't realize that this is a trap?" ”
"It's one thing to believe it or not, it's another thing to panic or not, if he kills someone, there must be a ghost in his heart, and as long as things change, the ghost in his heart will haunt him." Mei Xiaoren sat down and said, "Even if the people know that it is fake, he will be suspicious, and then try to verify it in order to feel at ease." ”
"What did Xiao Yu'er teach you?"
"My own idea." Mei Xiaoren smiled, "But the case can be dug up to this point, Xiangye has worked hard, you don't know, Xiangye went from the tea shop to the truth, it only took less than half an hour." ”
"The most jealous thing is that you are a species, one admires, one admires, sticks together all day long, and you can't even quarrel for a few days!" Wei Shuying picked up the teacup, shook his head and sighed, "I can't envy it." ”
"Madame didn't ...... before"
As soon as Mei Xiaoren's words came out, Wei Shuying's hand holding the teacup stopped, and he didn't drink the teacup when he brought it to his mouth.
Seeing this, she had no choice but to swallow the rest of her words back.
In fact, the reason why Mrs. Wei forced the scholar to marry back then was also because of admiration, they failed to be like glue, what was missing was the love of the scholar.
She saw that the scholar was now alone, and he was no longer as fond of laughing and joking as he used to be, which showed that there was a place in his heart that belonged to his wife, but now it was empty.
Mei Xiaoren had a lot of things to say, but he felt inconvenient to speak, because even Chu Yu planned to let the Wei scholars go, saying that the Wei scholars had his own considerations, and they didn't need to interfere anymore.
"Your tea here is quite fresh, the spring tea you just delivered, right?" Wei Shuying looked at the tea cup.
How could Mei Xiaoren not hear that the scholar was deliberately diverting the topic, she answered "yes", so that what she originally wanted to mention was stopped.
Five days later, just as the rumors of whether the murder witness was alive or dead became more and more mysterious, the carriage of the University Scholar's Mansion stopped outside the back door of the Shangjing Prefecture Office.
The officials surrounded the surroundings, but they did not stop the people passing by.
The people saw a woman in plain clothes coming out of the yamen with the help of her maids, and she was wearing a light gauze hat, so that no one could see what she looked like.
There was also a boy in brocade standing outside the door, and the boy asked the woman if she remembered him, and the woman was stunned as if she was stunned, and then shook her head.
The prince didn't ask any more questions, and asked the maid to help the woman into the carriage.
The carriage drove away from the Shangjing Prefecture under the watchful eyes of everyone, and the people talked about it, and there were many people who had heard the rumors and guessed the identity of the woman, and explained to everyone that the woman was the witness who was rescued in the Chengdong murder case, but it seemed to have amnesia.
The back door of the Shangjing Prefecture Office had been closed, and the crowd was still gathering outside the door to discuss, only a man standing at the back of the crowd quietly turned to leave.
In the stone window of the courtyard wall, Mei Xiaoren silently watched everything outside, and the people all stood still, so that the figure who left alone was particularly eye-catching.
In addition to the eye-catching figure, she was also quite familiar with that face, when she was studying in the academy, she and the man bowed their heads and did not look up, so they naturally recognized his servant.
"My lord, will the mastermind take the bait?" The subordinate next to her asked.
"Let's go fishing in a different place."
Forbidden Military Academy.
Ye Zhi stood on the high platform in front of him and watched the soldiers drill, the soldiers practiced meticulously, and he also watched it seriously.
Wu Xian had been standing behind him, no matter how calm he was, he couldn't hide the uneasiness in his expression, and the longer he waited, the more anxious he became.
After the soldiers finished practicing again, Wu Xian took this opportunity to walk to Ye Zhi's side and asked, "Major General, what should I do?" ”
"Now you know you're panicking?" Ye Zhi's face was calm, and he didn't intend to worry about anyone, his eyes were still in the sea of people in the audience, and he said, "The poison comes from your hand, whether people are dead or alive, you don't know in your heart?" ”
"What I gave her was poison, it's true, she can't be alive!"
"Now that you know, what ideas do you come to me for?"
"But it's rumored outside that she's not dead, and that there is a miracle doctor who pulled her back from the ghost gate." The more Wu Xian spoke, the more shocked he became, and said, "And the scholar of Wei has just taken people back from the yamen to the other garden, and my slave can see it clearly. ”
"How do you want me to help you?"
Wu Xian immediately said: "Ask Mei Xiaoren to see if she is alive or dead." ”
"If you want to ask yourself, see if there are three hundred taels of silver here!" Ye Zhi glanced at Wu Xian and walked off the high platform.
"Major General......
No matter how Wu Xian shouted, Ye Zhi didn't pay attention to him anymore.
The attendant waiting at the foot of the steps came over and persuaded: "Childe, it is true that the scholar took a woman, but the slave didn't see the woman's face, and he was not sure if it was her, so Childe and relaxed." ”
Wu Xian's face froze, and he secretly sighed, he has come to this day step by step, and there is no wind and waves that he can't bear. Ye Zhi was reluctant to help because he was afraid of getting involved, so it can be seen that the more critical the time, the more he can only rely on himself.
At night, the south of the city.
The forest was silent, except for the sound of a piano coming from the mansion deep in the woods.
There were guards in front of the mansion, and there were patrolling officials around them, and when the visitors saw this, they stopped and did not approach the heavily guarded place.
The music in his ears was incessant, making him curl up his palms slightly and sweat.
Sui whispered: "Childe, there are really people playing the piano inside, and they are playing that tune." ”
"I hear you, what does that mean?" Wu Xian sneered, and used this to ease his heart.
Just because someone plays the piano in it means she's still alive?
Absurd!
There are more people in the capital who can play "Good Night Introduction", not to mention that listening to this piano sound, the person who strokes the piano should be a man.
The attendant said, "I heard that the scholar is still inside." ”
One sentence made Wu Xian Gang's slackened heartstrings tense again......
In the garden, the mountain spring water flows into the pond all day long, making a clear sound.
Mei Xiaoren sat on the wooden platform, still surrounded by layers of veils, but she no longer felt like she was in a fairyland, and when the night breeze blew through the courtyard, it even made people feel a little panicked.
Fortunately, in addition to the wind and the veil, there was also the sound of the piano, and the Shang Yu flowing from his fingertips was enough to dispel the gloom around him.
Mei Xiaoren sat with his knees crossed, listening quietly.
Chu Yu's song is called "Good Night Introduction", which is the favorite of Wei scholars.
I heard from the scholar of Wei University that on the day he met Xiuyu, Xiuyu played "Good Night Introduction" in the tea shop.
Now that I think about it, it should be that the mastermind deliberately inquired about the preferences of the scholar Wei, and then asked Xiuyu to play this tune in order to attract the attention of the scholar. So the mastermind should be no stranger to this song.
The play always has to be performed enough, and after Chu Yu finished playing it again, Mei Xiaoren took the piano and continued to play, just to let the people who came to explore the wind hear that there was a girl here.
