Chapter Twenty-Three: Clueless
As expected, Lord Meng immediately sent his men to Luxi, but I heard Lord Meng say that the place was a bit far away, and it would take at least five days to go back and forth, including the investigation of the case, so I don't know if I can find it.
But since it's a brocade guard, they must be all masters, so you shouldn't have to worry...
The three of them went to all the bitten homes in the capital, and the results were the same, and everyone behaved the same as Aunt Yu's husband.
Now that you understand the basics, what should you do next?
Ye Ling thought, then he should search every household, maybe the children will hide in it, but he didn't expect that the magistrate had already completed the search and returned empty-handed.
Strange, if there is no one in the capital, where will it be? Could it be that it is like a TV series, but in fact, these people are human traffickers, deliberately making this appearance in order to abduct and sell children?
This idea was undoubtedly rejected by Lord Meng, if it was just out of such an idea, then most of the people who had no children were also bitten, so it was just a superfluous move.
Could this really be an evil act? But a few days ago, Ye Ling knew that the mages who went back and forth, the masters invited countless people, and it was useless, or she saw it with her own eyes, unless these mages were charlatans.
However, the most puzzling thing for her was that the evil creature saw her and left a puppet, so why didn't he bite her? And send her to the Song Mansion safely? Could it be that this evil guy wants to blame Ye Ling so that he can get out? No wonder everyone says that Ye Ling is evil, because only the people who are bitten will have this puppet, but how can Ye Ling be good?
Unexpectedly, Ye Ling would also wipe someone else's butt one day.
Alas, it's really worrying, the imperial doctor in the palace is helpless against this, how should this be good?
Unexpectedly, on the first day of the investigation, Ye Ling felt a little cold.
What to do, what to do!
Ye Ling hung his head and followed behind Master Meng.
At this time, the afterglow of the setting sun glows faintly.
It's time to apply.
Lord Meng escorted Ye Ling to the Song Mansion, and then returned to the Yamen with Imperial Physician Zhang.
Ye Ling went in in a daze, and heard Fan'er say that the old lady went to the temple to cultivate again, thinking that she didn't want to see Ye Ling. In this way, the old lady can recuperate in peace and not be bothered by this trivial matter.
Ye Ling returned to the wing room and only slept heavily, and did not eat.
In her dream, she saw that she was bitten by that evil spirit, and she woke up many times, and when she woke up, she saw the disgusting puppet in front of her, and it was because of this damn puppet that Ye Ling was blamed!
Ye Ling got out of bed and angrily threw the puppet aside, went back to the bed and turned over and over again, unable to fall asleep again.
Hai time.
Shuyu came to Ye Ling's room as promised, and when she saw her wrapped in the quilt in a daze, she patted her gently, but Ye Ling still didn't react.
"Miss Ye!"
Ye Ling only glanced up at her, and said blankly, "Shuyu, you're here." β
Shu Ying sat beside Ye Ling, "Miss Ye, what's wrong with you?" It's the same as losing your soul. β
Ye Ling was stunned, leaned on Shu Yuan's shoulder, closed his eyes, and muttered, "Alas, I'm so sad, it's so difficult to be a man." β
Shu Ying was stunned, "Miss Ye, is the investigation not going well?" β
Ye Ling took his head off Shu Yu's shoulders and curled up.
"Yes, it can be said that there is no progress, the only progress is that Imperial Doctor Zhang said that he recognized this puppet and sent someone to Luxi, and it is estimated that it will take five or six days to come back."
"That's... Is there a way for these bitten people to solve it? β
"Don't mention it, even the imperial doctor in the palace who treats the emperor can't do anything, what can I do."
Ye Ling remembered the sighs of Imperial Doctor Zhang today, and every sound made Ye Ling's heart tug again and again.
Ye Ling thought to herself, she should ask Imperial Doctor Zhang to also give her a few packets of calming medicine, she is now worried about Lin Daiyu.
"It's really hard... There is no way..."Ye Ling squeezed out a few tears and leaned his head on the side of the bed.
Shu Ying shook her head and gently stroked the broken hair on her forehead, "Miss Ye, in my opinion, you have always been a good girl, dare to fight for what you want, I know that you are not from here, but Miss Ye, you have a tenacity that I don't have." β
Ye Ling was shocked, how could Shu Ying see that she was not from here?
"Shuyi, you..."
"Perhaps, something is destined to happen, and how can you stop it? Miss Ye, although you occupy my body, I don't feel anything, as if I am the same as Miss Ye, I have lived a very bad life in this life, seeing you, I hope that Miss Ye can live a good life for me, and it can be regarded as fulfilling one of my wishes. β
"You said this..."Ye Ling lowered his head, a little guilty.
"So, Miss Ye, even if it's for me, please don't lose confidence, Meng Yuan will do his best to protect you, you will definitely be able to find the murderer and give yourself justice."
"I..." Ye Ling lowered his head and didn't know what to say.
"Miss Ye, I think this young lady from the Song Mansion must also be willing to believe you, and so am I, we will all stand on Miss Ye's side."
Ye Ling nodded again and again with emotion. "Shuyi, thank you."
Shu Ying is right, she hasn't tried everything, she can't give up easily, and with the help of Lord Meng, as well as Fan'er and Shu Ying's trust in her, how can she be so slumped?
Perhaps, it was Shuyu's encouragement that filled her heart, and the next morning, she only felt that she was full of positive energy again, made a "yes" gesture to the bronze mirror, and then grinned at the crescent moon.
"Well, the fairy is back, yay."
After having breakfast with Fan'er, Ye Ling embarked on the road of this strong man again, who knows, just arrived at the front yard, Ye Ling saw Liu Gongzi waiting at the gate of the Song Mansion from a distance.
Ye Ling couldn't help laughing, he didn't expect that he would pull this Liu Gongzi into the water.
"Young Master Liu? Why are you here? β
Liu Gongzi nodded lightly and said, "I'll escort Ling'er." β
"No, Young Master Liu, Ling'er will go by herself."
Liu Gongzi smiled lightly and shook his head, "Lord Meng's order." β
"Alas, this Lord Meng... Young Master Liu, I'm sorry for you. β
Wow, this Lord Meng is really interesting, it's really rare to have such a chance to be alone, Ye Ling thought to himself, with him, who would dare to bully himself?
I don't want to think about it, this sweetheart, the big family of the Liu family, Liu Mofeng, the old friend Meng Yuan, the brocade guard in the palace! Ye Ling, you are too successful, the relationship of your dreams... Maybe one day I can be friends with the emperor!
Thinking of this, Ye Ling couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Liu Gongzi coughed lightly and reminded her. Ye Ling also seemed to feel that her image was not good, so she covered her mouth, alas, I hope Liu Gongzi thinks she is not a fool.
The two came to the yamen and saw Lord Meng, the magistrate and Imperial Doctor Zhang were in the hall, as if they were discussing something.
Ye Ling whispered to Liu Gongzi that he should go back first, it was inconvenient here, and thanked Liu Gongzi for escorting her today.
The magistrate said with some sorrow: "Then there is no way to solve these bitten people?" β
"At the moment, there is no way." Imperial Doctor Zhang sighed.
Master Meng said angrily: "Hmph, it's just that I was bitten, how could I not do it?" It's not a strange disease, and there is something that you Imperial Doctor Zhang can't diagnose? β
Imperial Doctor Zhang was late and shook his head. "My lord, this disease is really rare and rare, not to mention the capital, and even the world, such a situation is rare!"
The magistrate sighed, "Alas, how did this capital become what it is now, and those children, each family has been searched several times by the lower officials, and there is no trace of the child." β
Ye Ling saw that this atmosphere was really frightening, and she decided to do something.
βHello eve
ybodyοΌ β
Several people looked at Ye Ling together, but they didn't pay attention to her, Ye Ling smiled a little embarrassedly, and then said:
"Hey, my lords, as the saying goes, a momentary setback won't defeat us! We have to muster up confidence, I know that I am just an ordinary woman, all adults are officials, the greater the so-called responsibility, the greater the strength, although I am an ordinary woman, but I also want to do my best to return the Song Mansion and give myself justice, so adults, let's not give up! β
Lord Zhixian roared impatiently: "You are still a guilty body now, do you think you are very relaxed!" After 10 days, if you don't find it, you'll have to hit the ground! β
This is the first time that Ye Ling has seen such a big anger in Zhixian County, she just wants to ease the atmosphere...
Ye Ling lowered his head in a roar and rubbed the corners of his clothes in embarrassment.
Lord Meng quickly took out his sword from his waist and pointed it at Lord Zhixian. "Need a reminder?"
The magistrate was so frightened that he pushed back a few meters.
"Xiaguan... The lower official knows his mistake. β
