The jailer suddenly took a big step back, waved his hand again and again, and said: "But the subordinates have no motive to murder Lord Xu, after all, Lord Xu is an official of the imperial court, and his subordinates are just a small jailer. ”

Wan Bingyu sneered and said, "Do you still need to talk about any motive for this kind of thing, it's just a matter of whether the money is enough." ”

The jailer knew that the matter had been revealed, gritted his teeth and ran out of the door.

Heng Xinyuan hurriedly rushed up to chase after him, but he was far less familiar with the situation in the cell than the jailer, how could he catch up with this person who insisted on running? It didn't take long for the people to rush outside.

Just when Heng Xinyuan and Wan Bingyu both felt that the jailer was about to escape, the man went and paused at the gate of the prison.

When they were far away, they couldn't see anything clearly, and when they both got closer, they realized that the jailer didn't stand at all, but had to stop. I saw that the jailer trembled like a leaf in the cold wind, and blood flowed from his eyes and nose.

Eventually, he fell to the ground as if all his muscles and bones had been drained.

"What's the matter with you?"

Heng Xinyuan hurriedly rushed forward to inspect the situation, the jailer grabbed his sleeve hard, as if he wanted to say something to him, but he couldn't say anything, red blood gushed out of his mouth, and he didn't have a chance to speak at all.

took a good life, and just threw it under Heng Xinyuan's nose.

Wan Bingyu's heart was completely shocked, how vicious the person who poisoned him had to be to kill three people in a row......

"The death of this jailer is exactly the same as that of Xu Shi and Chen Lin, I suspect that they died of the same poison, husband, why don't we let someone ask for a servant first?"

Heng Xinyuan nodded with a complicated expression.

Just then, another jailer returned.

Seeing that he was lying on the ground, obviously no longer angry, he was surprised: "What's going on, why did I go out to buy something and the exercises were gone......"

The jailer who was lying on the ground was bleeding and looking hideous, and he had already swallowed his breath.

Heng Xinyuan didn't have the mood to explain what happened to him, and directly asked him to invite the officials of the yamen and the servants to come over, and the jailer went according to his words, and brought back the officials after a while, and the officials were shocked in their hearts, and moved the corpses of the three people to the morgue in turn, and after a while, the servants also came.

Taking advantage of the post-mortem examination, Heng Xinyuan was led outside by Wan Bingyu.

Seeing the tragic death of the three people with her own eyes, she must have been greatly stimulated, Heng Xinyuan took her hand painfully: "After this matter is dealt with, I will definitely not let you see a similar scene again." ”

Wan Bingyu was stunned for a moment, and it took a while to realize that he was afraid that he would not be able to bear it, so he couldn't help but laugh.

"Don't worry about me, husband, for more than a year, I have already sharpened my heart very tenaciously, and this kind of small scene can't scare me at all."

"Are you really afraid?"

"With my husband by my side, there is nothing to be afraid of." Compared to seeing this cruel situation, Wan Bingyu was more afraid of losing his balance.

While the two were talking, they had already experienced the corpses, and after comparing the deaths of the three people, they were sure of one thing, that is, the three of them died of the same poison, and the first person to die was Xu Shi, and the last one was the jailer.

"This poison is very toxic, it is only produced in Pingyu Country, and ordinary people can't buy ...... at all."

Wan Bingyu had already guessed what had happened, it must be that the jailer was bought to be the murderer of Xu Shi, the reason why Chen Lin died was probably to kill his mouth, and the jailer broke away from his companions, perhaps to run away directly after murdering the prisoner, but he didn't expect Heng Xinyuan and Wan Bingyu to turn back, and he didn't expect that the person who bought him was ready to let him die a long time ago......

"What a vicious method." Wan Bingyu said with a half-frown.

Originally, they wanted to find a usable clue through Xu Shi's mouth, but now it seems that Xu Shi is dead, this clue is broken, and the jailer who was bought off is also dead, and it is difficult to recognize who the murderer is, and it is a little more difficult for them to continue to track down......

Just when Wan Bingyu was annoyed, Heng Xinyuan gently patted her shoulder.

"Madame, don't worry, it's a big deal that we take the time to go to Minzhen, since we can't ask clues from Xu Shi's mouth, then we can always see the clues by taking a trip to Minzhen in person."

"But the mountain bandits are rampant outside......"

Heng Xinyuan smiled slightly, and said disapprerovingly: "Madame, have you forgotten, now that I have controlled the defenders of Liangzhou City, and there is an army escort, do those mountain bandits still dare to do it?" ”

The big deal is just to fight a battle, and it's not that he hasn't been on the battlefield, Heng Xinyuan is fearless.

Wan Bingyu wanted to say something more, but when she turned her eyes, she saw a familiar person hurrying over.

"General, madam, there is something in the courtyard, Miss Awan invites the two of you to go back!"

This time it should be true.

The name of Shang Awan, who can be reported, is an acquaintance, presumably something happened at home, after Heng Xinyuan explained to Wan Bingyu, he immediately returned to the small courtyard, there were already maids standing outside the door waiting, and when they saw them coming back, they hurriedly stepped forward.

"What's going on in the house?"

The maid pointed to the room where the wounded were staying, and whispered, "The patient who lives in that room has woken up, and he has just woken up, and Miss Awan said that the matter is very important, and asked the slave and maid to send someone to invite the general and his wife quickly, and said not to make a noise......

The girl is really careful in her work, and Ah Wan is probably afraid that the yamen will have the eyes of the bandits, so she ordered the person who reported the news not to make a noise.

Just now they were still worried about the problem of interrupting the clues, it's really an endless road!

The two pushed the door open.

When they entered the door, Ah Wan was sitting on the edge of the bed talking to the wounded man on the bed, and I don't know what the two of them said, but there were tears in Ah Wan's eyes.

Wan Bingyu took her hand with some distress: "Why are you crying?" ”

Ah Wan waved her hand and said, "When I talk about my family, I feel sad for a while, so I ...... Alas, I'm fine, Madame and the general should ask him quickly, and I told him a brief summary of the situation. ”

Ah Wan and the one lying on the bed can be regarded as having the same fate, both of their families died at the hands of the mountain bandits, and they accidentally mentioned sad things when they were talking, so it is understandable to be sad.

Wan Bingyu patted her shoulder to comfort her, then turned her face to ask about the wounded.

"Don't be afraid, we are the ones who will bring you back, and we will not hurt you."

The wounded man nodded again and again, because of the severity of his injuries, he couldn't get up, and his face was very pale, and even his voice was hoarse, as if he had been rubbed through his throat by gravel, Wan Bingyu could hear it, every word he said was very difficult, but he still insisted on telling what happened to him.

His name is Lin Zhiwen, he is the housekeeper of the manor, and he is usually responsible for managing the chores in the manor, and the mountain bandits kicked open the gate of the manor that night......
