Chapter 343: Doing Something Separately
Three days later, Yun Mulin, on behalf of Emperor Tianduo, led a team of hundreds of craftsmen from the capital to Liyou County, Gyeonggi Province, to fulfill Emperor Tianduo's earlier promise to the ministers of cultural relics and renovate the Wu'anjun Temple for Wu Anjun.
Emperor Tianduo's original idea was to build a temple of Wu'anjun again, but fortunately Su Jiudong stopped him and proposed to repair Wu'anjun's hometown Wu'anjun Temple as a replacement, which would not cost the people and money, nor would the generals lose their hearts to the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven would lose faith in the courtiers.
The Muran Jun Shrine in Riwoo County, Gyeonggi Province, has been dilapidated for several years, and it is almost like rebuilding the original site rather than repairing.
Yun Mulin, who had been traveling for eight days, led the team to Liyou County, and after seeing the Wu'anjun Wu'anjun Temple at the scene, it was all because the Wu'anjun Temple was very dilapidated and miserable, and Yun Mulin couldn't help but resist this mission even more.
On the same day, Emperor Duo issued a holy decree and decided to hand over the repair of Wu'anjun's Wu'anjun Temple to Yun Mulin to be responsible.
He just wanted to live a life of fine clothes and food in the palace, and he didn't want to go to some poor countryside to repair the Wu'an Jun Temple.
Looking at the dilapidated Wu'an Jun Temple in front of him, Yun Mulin couldn't help but think of his conversation with his father, Emperor Tianduo.
Emperor Tianduo's tone was serious: "This time, my father gave you the task of repairing the Wu'anjun Wu'anjun Temple, firstly, so that you can redeem your merits, and secondly, let you collect those unnecessary thoughts, stop thinking crookedly, and do something out of the ordinary." ”
Yun Mulin knew that Emperor Tianduo was beating him on those things that he had secretly dealt with foreign merchants, and he didn't dare to talk back, even if Yun Mulin was very disgusted with the repair in his heart, he still had to make a happy acceptance on the surface.
Although Yun Mulin was very disgusted with the Wu'anjun Temple in front of him, he refused to repair it himself, and left the task to the team of craftsmen who came to Liyou County together: "The saint said that the repair of this Wu'anjun Temple will be completed within 20 days, so you should do it quickly." ”
This team of craftsmen from the capital only brought about enough building materials for five days of repair, and the rest of the building materials needed to be found locally, or from the capital to find familiar building materials shops.
On the second day when Yun Mulin led the team to Liyou County, he began to repair the Wu'anjun Wu'anjun Temple.
At the same time, Su Jiudong also took the "task" explained by Wen Yiheng, took Rumo and two domestic servants from the capital, took the carriage arranged by Wen Yiheng, and went to Liyou County, Gyeonggi Province with Wen Yiheng.
In the carriage, Wen Yiheng was closing his eyes and recuperating, and Su Jiudong was leaning against the window, although he was also holding a book in his hand, he didn't have the heart to look into it at all.
"What do you seem to be worried about?" Wen Yiheng felt that Su Jiudong's aura seemed to be a little depressed today, so he opened his eyes and asked Su Jiudong, "Are you worried about our plan to rectify Yun Mulin this time?" ”
Su Jiudong came back to his senses and responded, "No, I'm worried about another thing......"
After that, Su Jiudong's eyes moved to the scenery outside the window, and suddenly asked, "By the way, it seems that going from the capital to Gyeonggi Province will pass through Xianyang City, right?" ”
As soon as Wen Yiheng heard Su Jiudong ask about Xianyang City, he understood that Su Jiudong was worried about the revenge of Rumo's sister, Cuixu.
Wen Yiheng replied truthfully: "After passing the fork in the road, there will be two pipelines, one to Liyou County, Gyeonggi Province, and the other to Seoyang City...... It can barely be regarded as passing through Xianyang City. ”
Wen Yiheng looked at Su Jiudong, who was worried, and glanced at Rumo next to him with his spare eyes, and couldn't help but sigh slightly: "It seems that you still can't let go of the matter of that cuixu girl." ”
After Su Jiudong learned about Cuixu's situation, he inadvertently mentioned this matter to Wen Yiheng, and Wen Yiheng was very peculiar to such a thing as Tuomeng, so he was deeply impressed by Xianyang City related to this matter.
Rumo, who was silently serving the two in the carriage, listened to Su Jiudong and Wen Yiheng talking about Cuixu, and immediately pricked up her ears and listened carefully.
However, before leaving the general's mansion, Cui Xu swore to the sky, promising to avenge her husband's family, and left the capital with anger and hatred on the same day, and wanted to return to her hometown Xianyang City, and then no longer asked someone to write letters to the capital to communicate with Rumo.
As soon as the letter informing the news was broken, Su Jiudong and Rumo would not be able to know Cui Xu's future actions, which would of course make the two worried.
Su Jiudong was indeed worried about Cuixu's actions, so he squinted at the silent Rumo, and said in a deep voice:
"Cui Xu is just a weak woman, if you really want to seek revenge on two high-headed murderers, how easy is it to talk about it...... A weak and slender female streamer, against a murder suspect with human blood on his hands, the chances of successful revenge are not great. ”
"Besides, after she returned to Xianyang City, she no longer found someone to write letters and correspond with Rumo on her behalf, so I was naturally worried about her safety...... Don't take revenge when the time comes, but instead put your own life into it, lose your wife and break your army......"
Rumo heard the possibility of Su Jiudong's analysis of the situation, and couldn't help but be worried about it.
Wen Yiheng suggested: "If you are really worried about Cuixu, why don't we stop at the fork in the road ahead, and I will hire another carriage for you and send you to Xianyang City to see the situation?" ”
Wen Yiheng knew that Su Jiudong would still be worried if he only sent secret guards to Xianyang City to find out the information, so it was better to send her to the local area to see for herself, so that she could understand the situation exactly. Baixiao
"Is it really possible?" Su Jiudong said slightly.
Then he looked at Rumo, then at Wen Yiheng, and asked, "But if I'm absent, won't it affect our plan to rectify Yun Mulin this time?" ”
Wen Yiheng held Su Jiudong's shoulders and comforted him softly: "You can go to Xianyang City to see Cuixu first, as long as you can rush to Liyou County around the seventh or eighth day." ”
"Our original plan was just for you to change your makeup and pretend to be someone else, find an opportunity to get close to Yun Mulin and talk about some angry words, and then tell the Holy Lord those bad words."
Su Jiudong didn't agree immediately, but only thought carefully about the possibilities.
Wen Yiheng saw that Su Jiudong was still worried, and continued to sort out the situation for her: "Now that Yun Mulin has just arrived in Liyou County, the repair work has just begun, presumably his patience is still there, and there will not be too many complaints at present." ”
"This time, I specially asked the Holy Lord for an errand to supervise Yun Mulin, and it happened that I went to the local area to find a reason to force him."
The saint sent Yun Mulin to be in charge of the supervision of Wu'anjun Wu'an Jun's ancestral hall, and sent Wen Yiheng to Liyou County to supervise Yun Mulin.
"When I provoke him in a hurry, when you jump out and talk again, things will go smoothly, even if you are absent for a few days now, it will not affect the plan...... You can go with confidence, and I'll send a few more guards to protect you secretly. ”
Wen Yiheng's intimacy still moved Su Jiudong, and Su Jiudong immediately nodded and agreed: "Okay, then I will deal with the matter of Cuixu and try to rush to Liyou County to meet you within seven or eight days." ”
Rumo, who was silent beside him, looked at Su Jiudong and Wen Yiheng with a gaze full of gratitude.
After arriving at the fork in the road, Su Jiudong waved goodbye to Wen Yiheng, took Rumo and two servants to board Wen Yiheng's newly hired carriage, and rushed to Xianyang City from another road.
And Wen Yiheng sat in the original carriage, followed the original direction, and went to Liyou County unhurriedly.
Xianyang City is closer to the capital than Liyou County, but when Wen Yiheng's carriage was still traveling slowly, Su Jiudong's carriage finally arrived at Xianyang City after two days of bumpy trekking.
After coming to Xianyang City, Su Jiudong wandered around the city aimlessly.
Just because she came to the city to find someone to inquire about Cuixu's situation, nine of the ten people who knew Cuixu said that she went to the capital half a year ago to join her sister, and then never came back.
Rumo asked worriedly: "Miss, I haven't been able to ask about Sister Slave at present, could it be that she hasn't returned to Xianyang City?" ”
"No, it won't." Su Jiudong immediately shook his head, "Cui Xu said that she was going to come back to take revenge, then Hu Sheng and Hu Jiu are in Xianyang City, she won't not come back." ”
After thinking about it carefully, Su Jiudong guessed: "Maybe after Cui Xu returns to Xianyang City, she will change her appearance and disguise herself as someone else, so that no one will know that she has returned to Xianyang City, only when she has already lived in the capital with her sister." ”
In the end, Su Jiudong used the four secret guards sent by Wen Yiheng to inquire about the situation in the city, and learned that after Cui Xu returned to Xianyang City, he changed his face and pretended to be a man, and sold himself into the Hu Mansion by recommending himself to Ya Pozi Mao Sui and his low price.
After Su Jiudong's puzzle was solved, Cui Xu put away the paper with the words "Hu Sheng Hu Jiu" written by Su Jiudong, and vowed to return to his hometown to seek justice from the two and avenge her husband's family.
And Hu Sheng and Hu Jiu are also relatively famous and wealthy in Xianyang City, so it is very easy to find the two of them.
After returning to Xianyang City, Cui Xu learned that Hu Zhai was recruiting domestic servants for a long time, so she changed into men's clothes, and took the initiative to apply for Hu Zhai to be a servant through the self-recommendation of Ya Pozi.
After listening to the report of the secret guards, Su Jiudong's face was worried: "At present, we don't know if Hu Sheng and Hu Jiu are really murder suspects, so Sister Ling rashly entered Hu's house and lurked as a servant, but she was still a little anxious......
Su Jiudong thought that Cui Xu would collect evidence after returning to Xianyang City, and secretly check whether it was Hu Sheng and Hu Jiu.
The verification is not something that can be completed in a few days, and it is very likely that a long-term investigation will be required, and Su Jiudong wants to come to Xianyang City to see Cuixu, and he also wants to do his best to verify it for her.
However, in the short ten days after returning to Xianyang City from the capital, Cui Xu had already entered Hu's house as a servant, and it was obvious that Cui Xu had not been actually verified, and acted rashly before determining whether Hu Sheng and Hu Jiu were murder suspects.
What worries Su Jiudong is that if it is finally confirmed that the murderers are not Hu Sheng and Hu Jiu, but someone else, then in the case of Cui Xu's actions, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Rumo immediately became anxious: "Then what should I do in the future?" ”
