Chapter 136: Suspicious

"Thank you, thank you, thank you," the clerk didn't seem to expect these nobles to be so reasonable and sympathetic to the people, and immediately knelt down and kowtowed with a smile, and then raised his head and asked excitedly: "I don't know what to call the nobleman's name, and Weichen can explain it to the people." ”

"Lord of Ruliang." Ruan Mianmian wanted to talk about the King of England, but he didn't want him to say his title in advance, so he said that everyone was the same, so he didn't argue anymore.

After thanking him without stopping, he withdrew and summoned the people home, and the soldiers and attendants of the bridal procession carried the dowry and valuables into the courtyard, and the rest of the people set up camp outside the courtyard gate, and in a short time fires were raised.

People came and went to clean up the yard, but Ruan Mianmian and the others surprisingly did not rush in, but stood at the gate of the courtyard for a while, and then sent several squads of soldiers to go in to investigate, no matter where they were found, even if the house was not inhabited, the lights had to be lit all night.

This search that took a lot of effort was indeed not fruitless, and the soldiers successively brought out some of the ancient monsters that were found.

Ruan Mianmian didn't approach, but only glanced at it from a distance, there was a small brass incense burner, and there was half an unburned incense seal in it, a suitcase, and after opening it, it turned out to be a box of pearls and gems, and there was an unsigned letter.

After reading this, everyone was a little confused, could it be that the master of this other courtyard is so rich? Pearls can be piled up like stones in suitcases.

However, the consternation brought to them was relatively small, and immediately another soldier came to report that five big men had been found in the inconspicuous subordinate room behind the courtyard, and that they were hiding behind the straw pile when they were caught, and that they were also found with five sharp long swords, which seemed to be their respective swords. However, these people's kung fu skills are average, and they didn't use the secret guards of their masters, and as soon as the soldiers surrounded them, they were captured.

"Mom, why are there still people hiding in this courtyard? Quickly drag it out and ask what the origin and purpose of the interrogation are. Ruan Mianmian touched the goosebumps on his arm, and suddenly felt that this trip was difficult, they asked people to search the yard but they were also afraid of the change of the last trip to Jiangnan, but they didn't expect to find strange things, not to mention, they actually found living people, it was incredible.

The soldiers were ordered to go down for interrogation, and Mu Ruqing called the accompanying military doctor to come over and let them take a closer look at what was wrong with these things on the ground. If there is no problem, it will naturally be put back in place, but if there is something bad, it will naturally be dealt with properly.

Several military doctors are all thirty or forty years old, with a steady appearance and a strong body, not like a quiet doctor, but like a soldier who kills the enemy with a knife on the battlefield, but it is also true, those who do military doctors are stationed in the military camp, and when they fight, they can't distinguish the energy to take care of the old doctors, so they can only choose some strong ones, so as not to lose more than they lose.

A military doctor hesitated for a while, took a clean handkerchief, pinched the incense burner and looked at it, and put a little incense ash in front of him and smelled it for a while, his expression was a little strange, and after a long time he spoke: "Back to the nobles, there is nothing wrong with this incense burner, but this spice..."

"How's the spice?"

"The spice is sandalwood, and it is mixed with a small amount of fascination incense, it seems that it was not taken away in time after ordering, but it is no harm to the body, but the nobles should not light it." The military doctor drooped his face, he originally belonged to the stable one, and now let him explain this, naturally he was full of unhappiness.

"Oh, come on, take it away and dispose of it." Several girls present all had crimson faces and covered the tip of their noses with handkerchiefs, with a look of disgust, Jiang Xinyue even directly let people take them to an invisible place, even if these girls have a family, they haven't really married, how can this kind of strange thing in the boudoir be embarrassed to see.

Mu Ruqing raised her eyes to look at Jiang Xinyue, she happened to also move her gaze, as soon as the two of them made eye contact, they staggered as if they were electrocuted, Jiang Xinyue immediately replaced the shyness in her eyes with a warning, glared at him viciously, and then turned her face away as if she was angry.

The entire Jingshu County Lord's Mansion knows that although the county lord and the concubine have not officially held a wedding, they are already a young couple who are living in the middle of their lives, and neither of them is a conservative young man who is waiting for the days by the pedantic rules.

Last time, because of Ruan Mianmian's nightmare waking up in the middle of the night, the two of them tied the wrong belt in a panic, Jiang Xinyue didn't let Mu Ruqing get close for more than ten days, and was also falsely accused by Liu Xin'er of several good-looking furnishings, although everyone has a good relationship with each other, but the superficial work that should be done must be done, even if they know anything, they are full of blessings to help cover it up, how can it really be publicized.

Liu Xin'er blushed and looked at the upright Duan Yan behind him, he didn't seem to hear what the military doctor said, and when he saw Liu Xin'er taking the initiative to see him, he touched his ears happily, with a simple and upright face.

Lu Gui grabbed Princess Zhuen's waist without a trace, Zhuen is a native of Mobei, she doesn't care about these etiquette rules at all, she does like Lu Gui, so in the few days when she came back from Ruliang, she was in a hurry to occupy the beautiful Lu Gui in her own way, and he was in the plum garden, cough, don't describe it too much.

Everyone looked different, and soon their attention turned to the jewels. Another officer was wearing sackcloth gloves to remove all the pearls, and the letter was examined for no poison, so it was opened.

Mu Ruqing didn't take the letter, and read the content roughly with the soldier's hand, and his face gradually became gloomy.

"What was written?" Ruan Mianmian tiptoed to look, but couldn't see clearly, and asked a little anxiously.

"It's not a good word, but this jewel is for us. The letter said that this was a small gift from the owner of the house, and between the lines it was extremely flattering and flattering, and that he hoped that we would give them a lot of good words in the palace. ”

"It's a businessman, and it's like this... Ostentatious. Ruan Mianmian really couldn't find a good word to describe it, and scratched his head vigorously.

"Don't you think it's too generous?" Jiang Xinyue's brows furrowed, watching the military doctor take out all the pearls and put them on the ground, "If this person really has a heart, why did he only leave a box of treasures but didn't come to see us?" If you want to give a gift, wouldn't it be more sincere to give it in person? ”

"Yes, these things are suspicious, this whole house is a little suspicious, sisters, my feet hurt a little after standing for a long time, can you accompany me back to the carriage to rest for a while?" Ruan Mianmian bent down to help her legs, looking a little tired, and her face was not good.

"Let's go, let's all go with her, and bring down our belongings by the way." Zhu En glanced at everyone, quietly stepped forward to help Ruan Mianmian, and led the group to the carriage.

The carriages in which the masters sat were luxurious and spacious, parked side by side outside the walls of the courtyard, surrounded by tents and bonfires of the guards, but they were safe enough. After everyone got into their own carriages, they closed the curtains, and each brought two palace maids up to serve and clean up, which seemed to be normal and could not be normal anymore.

After a short time, they led a palace maid or servant who accompanied them out of the carriage at the same time, laughed and entered the courtyard, and the people inside closed the door, and then they went back to their rooms to rest.

And the real nobles are still sitting quietly in the carriage.

The courtyard is luxurious and exquisite, but it hides a mystery, it is better not to step into the trap at all, and it will not fall into the scheme.

Ruan Mianmian yawned, gently knocked on the small cabinet on the side, and after a while, Wuyi and Hayabusa, who were dressed in night clothes, opened the curtain and jumped in like a gust of wind, without any movement.

Ruan Mianmian blocked the window of the carriage with a thick curtain, so that people could say that the palace maid who had left the carriage to watch the carriage was in the car, and it would not arouse suspicion, there were too many of them to let go of a carriage, so they had to disperse, Lu Gui and Princess Zhuen, Mu Ruqing and Jiang Xinyue, Liu Xin'er and Ruan Mianmian were companions, and Ruan Bai was taken by Duan Yan in Liu Xin'er's car, each relying on the secret guard to deliver the news.

"How?" Liu Xin'er sat up straight and leaned inside, leaving a wide carriage for the two big men.

"The military doctor sent news that the pearl was added with hemp boiling powder, which could make the person who came into contact or inhaled unconscious, and the five people interrogated over there also had results, saying that it was a group of mountain thieves, who were summoned by a boss surnamed Qi and gave them money to go in at night to kill people." Hayabusa whispered.

"But how did they get into the other courtyard, didn't the official in charge say that they were all carefully inspected, could it be that the official was also one of the murderers?" Ruan Mianmian pursed her lips tightly and made a guess.

"I can't be sure, according to them, they climbed over the wall from the back to enter the courtyard after the inspection, so it is likely that the officials are not sympathetic."

"Now that we've been caught, we're not going to be assassinated." Liu Xin'er only felt relieved, it seems that although this inspection before entering the door will be said to be a shelf, it is really useful.

"Silly sister, do you really think that the people behind them have no other tricks? As long as we live in, then we can only parry any accidents, and there is no possibility of fighting back, so it is better to stay in a safe carriage if we are wronged. Ruan Mianmian took out a handful of melon seeds from the side drawer, handed half of them to Liu Xin'er, and gave a little to Falcon You and Wuyi respectively: "Take it and eat." ”

Hayabusa You and Wuyi didn't seem to hear it, no one reached out to pick it up, Ruan Mianmian had to lean over and stuff it into their hands, helpless, Hayabusa You said in a low voice: "Thank you for the reward." Then the two of them coincidentally held the melon seeds in the palm of their hands and never put them in their mouths.

Ruan Mianmian was also used to it, and was not angry: "Okay, I didn't go to see what news my sisters had, and Falcon You stayed in the carriage to protect it." ”

"Mianmian, why did you let Hayabusa stay instead of Wuyi?"

"He's good-looking."
