Biyue glanced at Miss's face and asked cautiously, "Miss, are you okay?" ”

"It's okay, you can say it!"

Biyue nodded and said, "Miss, that's the case, when the slave maid rested just now, she suddenly heard a noise in the backyard, and there were faint people crying, so the slave and maid got up curiously and went out." ”

Biyue got up when she heard the voice, listened closely, and found that the sound came from the backyard. She was curious, wondering who was in the backyard so late? So she took the palace lamp on the table and groped her way to the backyard.

The closer you get to the backyard, the louder it becomes, mixed with staccato cries.

"Feng'er, my Feng'er......"

Biyue was taken aback. Isn't Mama Li's son called Feng'er? I heard that he lost it in the afternoon, could it be that he found it?

She quickened her pace and walked down the hallway to the backyard.

The backyard is relatively remote and barren, and few people usually come here, but at this moment it is crowded with people, all of them watching the lively maids, servant women, small servants, etc.

At this time, the crying was gone, and the people gathered around the pile and whispered.

Biyue hurriedly grabbed a girl and asked, "Sister Chunlan, what's going on?" ”

The girl who called Chunlan turned around and saw that it was her, so she hurriedly pulled her aside, and said in a low voice: "Biyue, ouch, it's terrible, Mama Li is from your yard, right?" ”

"yes, what's wrong?"

"Then you must know that her son is missing, right? She searched for her son for a few hours, but who knew that the child was found dead in the grass in the pavilion......"

Biyue's eyes widened suddenly: "What, dead, dead?" Really? ”

"Go, can I talk nonsense? If you don't believe it, go and see for yourself, that child died a terrible death, not only that, but even his head was cut off......"

Biyue was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth. But she didn't believe it, Feng'er was still a six or seven-year-old child, who had so much hatred with him, not to mention cutting off his head if he killed him?

She was stunned for a moment before she came back to her senses, and hurriedly turned and ran over, picking up the crowd and looking inside.

A strong smell of blood came to my nose.

Although the light in the pavilion is not very good, you can see it clearly, and in the grass of the pavilion, there is a person upside down, but it is Mama Li. Mama Li fell to the ground unconscious, and she should have fainted.

Biyue stretched her neck to look over, but she didn't see Feng'er, she could only see a pair of small feet showing next to Mama Li.

She wanted to take a closer step and see clearly, but she heard someone shouting, "Get out of the way, get out of the way!" ”

When she looked back, it turned out to be Steward Cao.

Steward Cao frowned and shouted, "What are you looking at?" What's so hilarious and beautiful? Hurry back to your room. Also, keep your mouth shut, and don't talk nonsense. If you scare the masters of the garden, you are good-looking. ”

The people who watched the excitement dispersed. Biyue didn't dare to stay, so she had to stumble all the way back to the courtyard.

After listening to Biyue's story, Ye Mengmeng's face was extremely ugly.

Biyue said with some worry: "Miss, are you okay?" ”

Ye Mengmeng suddenly turned over and got down and said, "Biyue, bring my clothes." ”

"Miss, what do you want to do?"

"Don't ask so much."

"Yes," Biyue didn't dare to ask again, so she had to hand her shirt to Miss.

Ye Mengmeng put on her clothes neatly.

"Biyue, you accompany me to the backyard."

Biyue was startled, "Miss, you, what are you doing in the backyard?" ”

"Don't ask, just take me."

"Miss, no, if the old lady knows, the slave will die......" Biyue almost wanted to cry. She hasn't been with Miss for a few days, and she doesn't know much about Miss's temperament, and she doesn't know that Miss is so bold.

"Oh, what are you afraid of? If the old lady blames you, you just push me. ”

Biyue couldn't resist Miss, so she had to sniff and mutter, "Okay then......"

The master and servant, one with a lantern in front and the other behind, groped their way to the backyard.

Because the backyard has been deserted for a long time, the road leading to the backyard is not easy to walk, and the light is not good at night, although there are palace lights to guide the way, it is not much better, always stumbling, several times almost fell.

I finally groped my way to the backyard, and I saw the lights in front of me from afar. Ye Mengmeng stood still and looked around.

Someone in front shouted, "Who's over there?" Didn't you say you weren't allowed to come here? ”

Ye Mengmeng glanced at Biyue. Biyue swallowed her saliva and plucked up the courage to reply: "Yes, it's the eldest lady who is here......"

"Miss?"

The voice was unusually surprised, someone rushed over, it was Steward Cao, he was standing in the middle of the road, as if he was unintentionally blocking Ye Mengmeng's way.

"Miss, please stay!" Steward Cao bowed.

"Steward Cao, I heard that there are dead people here, what the hell is going on?" Ye Mengmeng's expression was already calm.

"This ......" Steward Cao glared at Biyue without a trace, as if complaining that he was talking too much, but he didn't dare to perfunctory Miss, so he had to say truthfully, "Miss, someone is indeed dead......

"Is it Mama Li's son Feng'er?"

"Yes......"

"Did you report the crime?"

"I've already sent someone to the Golden State Mansion to report the case."

Ye Mengmeng nodded, stopped talking, and stepped forward.

Steward Cao had no choice but to stop her, and said with a wry smile: "Miss, you can't go over...... The child's appearance is miserable, and the minion is afraid to scare you. ”

"It's okay, I'm not afraid." Ye Mengmeng walked forward with her head held high.

"Don't, eldest miss," Steward Cao secretly complained, and said with a smile, "It's too bloody and messy over there, so Miss better not go over, right?" If something goes wrong, how can the slave explain it to the old lady? Besides, this scene ...... It's also to be well protected, isn't it? ”

Ye Mengmeng said: "Steward Cao, don't worry, I just went over to take a look, and I promised that I would not destroy the scene of the crime, let alone mess around." ”

"This ......," Steward Cao was embarrassed, "Miss, what's so good about this dead man?" Miss should go back to the house and have a good rest, otherwise it will scare Miss, and the old lady will not tear up the minions? ”

"No, Steward Cao, don't worry, I'm not muddy, I can't be so timid."

"Miss, it's really not good." Steward Cao wanted to cry without tears.

"Steward Cao," Ye Mengmeng's expression became solemn, and she said seriously, "I think you should also know that Miss Ben is about to enter the palace in three months, but at such a juncture, such a thing happened, if it is known by the people in the palace, I don't know what will happen?" So ......"

"So," someone behind him suddenly answered, "you should avoid this blood-stained place!" ”

Ye Mengmeng was startled and hurriedly looked back. The person who came was dressed in a blue brocade robe, and it was the eldest son Ye Chengxuan.

"Big brother, is that you?"

Ye Chengxuan frowned slightly, and said dissatisfiedly: "Little sister, you don't stay in the house honestly in the middle of the night, what are you running around?" ”
