Chapter 149: A Game Within a Game

Master, what are you going to do about Ying'er? ”

Mrs. Zhang walked into Master Zhang's study.

"What to do?" Master Zhang asked rhetorically.

"Daughter is like this, aren't you going to give your daughter an explanation?" Mrs. Zhang walked into Master Zhang, her face full of anger.

"Confess? I've sent someone to investigate. Master Zhang said perfunctorily.

Recent events have kept him busy, and the eight people who died in the slums north of the city still don't know who the killers are.

He is also very sad about Zhang Xueying's matter, but what can be done now, the murderer has no evidence left for them at all, how to find the murderer?

Besides, Zhang Xueying's face is really useless, originally with Zhang Xueying's appearance, he can still use Zhang Xueying to exchange for some benefits, and now it is still a question whether Zhang Xueying will marry or not.

Master Zhang even wanted to give up this daughter. The official eunuchs are all based on interests first, how can there be any sincere and pure family affection.

"Send someone to check? Are there any results? Mrs. Zhang asked.

"How can it be so fast, it always takes time to investigate the case." Master Zhang replied impatiently.

"It's been a few days, sir, maybe the murderer has already escaped from Qingshi County!" Mrs. Zhang roared loudly.

"If you're not satisfied, check it out for yourself." Master Zhang was also angry with what Mrs. Zhang said, and turned around with a flick of his sleeves.

"You!" Mrs. Zhang didn't expect Lord Zhang to have such an attitude, she is also a smart woman, of course she knows what Lord Zhang's attitude means.

"Okay, okay, if you don't help your daughter, I'll help." Mrs. Zhang finished speaking and walked out of the study.

"You ......" Lord Zhang wanted to say something, Mrs. Zhang had already left.

"Where did Lu Shao leave?" In the Caiyi Pavilion, Xue Wuyi asked the man in black in front of him.

"Back to the master, it seems that we are heading towards Beirong, our people were found halfway, one died, and one had to retreat." The man in black replied.

"Beijung?" Xue Wuyi was shocked.

"Yes, master." The man in black replied firmly.

"Okay, I see, you go down." Xue Wuyi waved his hand.

"Yes, master." The man in black stepped back.

Xue Wuyi had a bold guess in his heart, is Lu Shaoli a spy from Beirong?

But Xue Wuyi always felt that Lu Shaoli's voice was very familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.

This made Xue Wuyi fall into deep thought. Lu Shaoli's identity is becoming more and more confusing, and he can't even be sure whether he is friend or foe.

"Master, there's someone outside who says he wants to see you." Pothos came in and said.

"Who?" Xue Wuyi asked.

"Mrs. Zhang," Luluo replied.

"Mrs. Zhang?" Xue Wuyi was puzzled.

"Mrs. Prefectural Order." Pothos added.

"Nope." Xue Wuyi waved his hand impatiently.

"Yes, master." The pothos answered and retreated.

Xue Wuyi didn't think much about it, and he didn't expect that today's unintentional move would leave endless troubles behind.

Mrs. Zhang walked down the street in despair, she didn't expect Xue Wuyi to see her directly, which was unprecedented in Qingshi County.

And when passing by Zhangjia Supermarket, a plan came to Mrs. Zhang's mind.

"Madam, what do you want to buy, I will recommend it for you."

Liu Xiaomian saw Mrs. Zhang come in and greeted her with a smile.

"I'll take a look." Mrs. Zhang waved her hand.

"Where's your shopkeeper?" After a while, Mrs. Zhang walked around the supermarket and asked a little guy who didn't look very shrewd.

"Our shopkeeper didn't come today." The little guy replied respectfully.

"Didn't come?" Mrs. Zhang asked suspiciously.

"Yes." The little guy nodded.

"But the second of us is here, and you want me to help you ......" Before the little guy finished speaking, Mrs. Zhang waved her hand and left.

At this time, Liu Meiniang was teasing the meat bun at home, Zhang Jilin came, and the supermarket could be handed over to Zhang Jirin, just when she rested for a while, although she was not too tired recently, but Liu Meiniang felt physically and mentally exhausted.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard.

"Who!" Liu Meiniang asked loudly.

There was still no answer outside the door, and the knock on the door was still thinking.

Because it was broad daylight, Liu Meiniang didn't think too much about it, patted the head of the meat bun and went to open the door.

When I opened the door, I found that it was a woman I didn't know, it was Mrs. Zhang.

It turned out that Mrs. Zhang took out the place where Liu Meiniang lived from the mouth of that not-so-shrewd little girl.

"Hello, who are you looking for?" Liu Meiniang asked politely.

"I ...... I want to beg for a drink. Mrs. Zhang hesitated for a moment and said.

"Oh, come in then." Liu Meiniang opened the door and let Mrs. Zhang in.

"You girl, you are good-looking and have a good heart." Mrs. Zhang looked at Liu Meiniang's smiling face, and thought of Zhang Xueying, who was still lying on the bed and was disfigured, the hatred in her heart grew like a weed, and she couldn't wait to step forward and scratch Liu Meiniang's face.

But she couldn't,

"Madame's got the prize." Liu Meiniang was not complacent because of Mrs. Zhang's praise, and replied as usual.

"Where is Madame going?" Mrs. Zhang is dressed luxuriously, and her family background will definitely not be bad. Liu Meiniang asked casually when she poured water for Mrs. Zhang.

"I ...... I'm looking for someone. Mrs. Zhang's expression was a little flustered.

"Looking for someone?" Liu Meiniang asked suspiciously.

While Liu Meiniang turned around, Mrs. Zhang poured a packet of white powder into the cup. Liu Meiniang didn't notice it.

"Girl, you can have a drink too, thank you for your hard work." Mrs. Zhang smiled at Liu Meiniang.

"I don't drink anymore, you can drink it." Liu Meiniang replied with a smile.

"Sit down and drink together, thank you." Mrs. Zhang took Liu Meiniang's hand.

Liu Meiniang instinctively dodged away, and Mrs. Zhang's hand was awkwardly left in mid-air.

"I don't know the girl's name yet." Mrs. Zhang looked at Liu Meiniang and drank water, and asked with a slight flash in her eyes.

"My name is Liu Meiniang." After Liu Meiniang finished drinking, she felt dizzy.

"What's the matter, girl?" Mrs. Zhang pretended to be surprised and asked.

"I'm a little ......" Liu Meiniang didn't finish speaking, so she climbed on the table and couldn't get up.

"Miss Liu?" Mrs. Zhang poked Liu Meiniang's shoulder, but Liu Meiniang did not react.

Mrs. Zhang walked behind Liu Meiniang, turned Liu Meiniang over, looked at Liu Meiniang's face, her eyes were crazy, as long as she took the knife and slashed hard, Liu Meiniang's face would be ruined, and when the time came, her Ying'er would still be the most beautiful.

Mrs. Zhang's hand stayed on Liu Meiniang's face for a long time, and finally put it down.

She had more important things to do.

When Liu Meiniang woke up, she found herself in a strange room, her whole body was sore, and she could only lie on the bed, unable to move anywhere except her eyes.

There was a voice from next door.

"How's it going? Is Xue Wuyi here? Liu Meiniang listened attentively, it was the voice of the woman before.

"Here comes Mrs. Zhang." A strange man replied.

Mrs. Zhang? Liu Meiniang's eyes widened, and she said why the woman before looked familiar, it turned out to be ...... She is Zhang Xueying's mother.

"Let him wait." Mrs. Zhang said in a low voice.

"Mother, Brother Wuyi is here?" Zhang Xueying's anxious voice came.

"Come on, come on, you can go and hide in the next room later, then you are not allowed to go." Mrs. Zhang reminded.

"I don't want to hide!" Zhang Xueying's dissatisfied voice came.

"If you don't go to the next room to hide and hide, will Xue Wuyi go in!" Mrs. Zhang's tone was accentuated.

Although Zhang Xueying was unhappy in her heart, she still nodded on the surface.

Zhang Xueying's voice disappeared, probably going to the next room.

Liu Meiniang wanted to get out of bed, but let alone getting out of bed, it was very difficult for her to lift her arms.

"Mrs. Zhang, where is Mei Niang?" Xue Wuyi's menacing voice came.

Liu Meiniang heard someone next door kick open the door.

seemed to suddenly understand what Mrs. Zhang was going to do.

"Miss Liu is fine." Mrs. Zhang said lightly.

"Then thank you Mrs. Zhang, what about the people, I'll take it away." Xue Wuyi was in the Caiyi Pavilion, but the next person came to report, saying that Mrs. Zhang had something for him, and handed it in, it turned out to be the jade pendant that Liu Meiniang often bringed.

Xue Wuyi didn't have to think about it to know that Liu Meiniang must be in Mrs. Zhang's hands.

In terms of contact, Xue Wuyi knew Master Zhang's family earlier than Liu Meiniang, and what kind of goods this family is, Xue Wuyi knows it clearly in his heart.

It's just that he didn't expect that Mrs. Zhang would be so bold and dare to threaten him with Liu Meiniang, Lord Zhang must not know about this matter, if Lord Zhang knew, he would definitely not let Mrs. Zhang do this.

"The person is in the next room, you can take it away." Mrs. Zhang pointed out the door.

Xue Wuyi glanced at Mrs. Zhang suspiciously, could it really be that she met Liu Meiniang who fainted on the street? But would Mrs. Zhang be so kind?

But Xue Wuyi will no longer be able to think calmly, Liu Meiniang is too important to him, as long as it involves Liu Meiniang's affairs, Xue Wuyi will not be able to calm down.

Xue Wuyi strode out of the room and came to the next door, and sure enough, he saw Liu Meiniang lying motionless on the bed.

Liu Meiniang wanted to tell Xue Wuyi that she was cheating, but her voice couldn't come out at all, this feeling was too weird.

"Mei Niang, Mei Niang, are you okay?" Xue Wuyi took three steps and two steps to Liu Meiniang's bed. Liu Meiniang couldn't say a word except for the rolling of her eyes.

"What did you do to Mei Niang?" Xue Wuyi looked at Mrs. Zhang, who came in behind, and roared loudly.

"What was done? You'll find out soon. Mrs. Zhang giggled, like a pesky old hen.

"You ......" Xue Wuyi was about to speak, but found a burst of heat in his body.

instantly understood Mrs. Zhang's abacus, and her body slowly reacted. Xue Wuyi's face began to flush. Liu Meiniang looked at Xue Wuyi's appearance, and also knew that Mrs. Zhang had drugged Xue Wuyi, and she might be the medicine.

She was drugged and couldn't move her whole body, and Mrs. Zhang rubbed the drug on her body, so as soon as Xue Wuyi touched her, she was poisoned.

"Mei Niang, I'll take you away." Xue Wuyi shook his head, forced himself to be conscious, and stepped forward to pick up Liu Meiniang,

But the medicinal properties of this flattering medicine are too strong, and as soon as Xue Wuyi touched Liu Meiniang's body, an impulse erupted in his body.
