Chapter Seventy-Six: The Foolish Blind Man
At dusk today, the envoy Su led a group of people to Xiangling Town to officially take over the Taiwei case.
and questioned all the people involved in the case.
But he is only a pioneer, and the imperial court has already sent people from the Criminal Department and Dali Temple to arrive in Xiangling Town in a few days.
So before they came, Qu Youying calculated that they had at least five days.
"Hopefully there's enough time."
Coming out of the yamen lobby, Qu Youying thought about it in pieces, but her mind drifted away.
She was worried about whether Mu Jingzhu could successfully drop the bag with Su Tong.
She was supposed to participate in person, and she would take people to the prison and replace them again.
But Su Tong vetoed it, and he insisted on dropping his bag on the way to the prison after being questioned by Lord Su.
Although Qu Youying felt that this method was too risky, Mu Jingzhu actually agreed.
didn't see anyone come out safely, Qu Youying's heart was always hanging.
That's why she didn't see anyone in front of her.
"Stupid girl, don't you walk with long eyes?"
The word stupid girl, the words that the man said were round, and there was an obvious smile in it.
Qu Youying's footsteps did not stop, and the corners of her mouth were already twitching.
In this world, there is no one who dares to use this title for her except that person.
She raised her head, squinted, stared at the man in front of her, and kept rampage at him.
"Only a blind man walks without eyes!"
Almost all the wicked people who knew that Su Chang was blind didn't dare to mention this matter to him at will.
Because Su Xiaogongzi is arrogant, he is afraid that his self-esteem will not be able to stand it.
It's also easy for one to be accidentally beaten.
But the fact is that when they heard someone blatantly calling Su Chang blind man, many people craned their necks to look at this place.
Even the prefect and Thirteen Chuan and others in the lobby looked out.
Su Chang stood with his hands in his hands, his aura was magnificent, his black hair and jade crown, he was dressed in white, his clothes were fluttering, and he was turbid.
At this moment, his complexion changed slightly, revealing displeasure.
Those spectators shrank their necks one after another, afraid that he would get angry.
"What? Still not happy? Who made you call me a stupid girl! ”
This is the yamen, and there are still prefects and Master Su sitting in it, so Qu Youying's words can be regarded as merciful.
If it were to be changed to another place, he dared to call her a stupid girl, she had to roll up her sleeves and beat people, anyway, she couldn't beat her, with the help of Mu Jingzhu!
"Wait."
Just when Qu Youying bypassed Su Changdu, he held his wrist with one hand.
"What do you do? Let go! ”
Qu Youying didn't like Su Changju at all, because this person was so annoying, he called her a stupid girl every time, and he was very disdainful of her.
But when facing Mu Jingzhu, it was a different face, and I couldn't wait to stick it on, and every time I was angry, Qu Youying's teeth were itchy.
Those who dare to snatch Mu Jingzhu from her are all heinous bad people!
"Apologize to Ben Gongzi."
"Apologize?" Qu Youying blinked, puzzled, "Why?" ”
"Because you scolded Ben Gongzi for being blind."
"Huh." Qu Youying chuckled lightly, and said with disgust on her face, "Then you still call me a stupid girl!" Would you like to apologize first? Blind. ”
At the end of her, she was about to make up a blind sentence, Su Changju's eyes twitched, and the people over there looked at it with a chill on their backs, and even Master Su looked a little unbearable.
"You call it again and try it!"
Su Changdu's face was gloomy, as if the sky was full of dark clouds, and the next moment it would be pouring rain.
Qu Youying was not afraid of him, he held his hand, couldn't struggle, simply raised his neck, stood on tiptoe, approached him, took a deep breath, and then.
"Blind, blind, blind!"
She said that the third brother was blind in a row, and the words were high, which aroused the birds lurking in the trees.
It made those spectators want to laugh and dare not laugh.
Master Su couldn't stand it anymore, and planned to stop this nonsensical farce, but was stopped by Su Changju.
He stretched out his hand to stop his father from approaching, looked down at Qu Youying, who was more than a head shorter than him, and suddenly let go of her hand.
Qu Youying's hand was released, and before she had time to rejoice, the next moment, her cheeks were pinched to both sides.
On the opposite was Su Changdu's cloudy face.
"Today, my son doesn't care about you, but if there is a next time, I will definitely sew your mouth up! Then buy a parrot, put it in your house, and call you 'stupid girl' in your ear all day long! ”
Su Chang really didn't say it casually, he still remembered that not long after they had known each other, Qu Youying protested very much that he called himself a stupid girl, and he didn't bother him about it.
But he was good, and one day he went to the street and bought a talking parrot and gave it to her in the name of Mu Jing Candle.
Then every day when I saw her, I yelled "stupid girl".
Because of this incident, Qu Youying almost chopped his life with a knife!
The beams of the two also became deeper and deeper at that time, and every time they saw it, they would quarrel.
This matter was very big at the time, and both the prefect and Master Su knew about it, but the matter between children was always helpless for adults.
"Anyway, Mu Jingzhu is being detained as a murderer at the moment, and no one will help you!"
Su Chang's vicious words made Qu Youying unusual, and she suddenly cried.
She pulled his hand away and took two steps back, stubbornly wiping away the tears that flowed from her eyes.
"Jing Zhu is not a murderer! I don't allow anyone to say he's a murderer! ”
She yelled and ran away without looking back.
Su Changju's face was disgusted, and he didn't intend to apologize or coax the other party's actions at all, and strode towards the lobby.
He couldn't see with his eyes, but he could hear the subtle sounds around him, and his ears moved when he heard his steps.
He said, "You're all watching a good show? ”
"No, no!"
Everyone knows that Su Changju's temper is very bad, and his temper is even worse after he is blind, where can he dare to admit it now?
So the guards caught them and retreated one after another to do their own thing.
Even Lord Su shook his head, as if he hadn't heard it, so the prefect and the others wouldn't say anything.
"Since you don't, come into the house and talk to me about the process of the case."
He strode in, but when he was interrogated just now, he was no more, and if he wanted to listen at this moment, it must have been reported by someone else.
And here, there is only one person who can report.
He looked at Su Changdu's back, his eyes narrowed slightly, and before stepping into the lobby, he gestured to the people under him.
When the man understood, he turned around and disappeared into the yamen.
After Qu Youying came out of the yamen, she cried and walked on the street.
"Bastard Su Changju, every time he only knows how to bully me, bastard, bastard! When this matter is over, the old lady must make you look good! Anyway, if you're blind, it's not bad to chop off the root of your life. ”
"I'm curious, why did you have to chop off his life, did he do something to you?"
Xie Xiaoer came out of nowhere, although he was afraid of being beaten, he was still very curious about her persistence.
Qu Youying swept over with a knife eye, raised his foot and stepped on his instep fiercely.
"Do you want to chop yours!"
Xie Xiaoer immediately protected the bottom, and his head shook like a rattle, "No, no, I still have to marry a wife!" ”
Qu Youying looked at him and said angrily, "I can't marry you with you." ”
After she finished speaking, she left without looking back, Xie Xiaoer was very embarrassed, but still chased after her.
"It's getting dark, I'll send you home!"
"Don't! I'll go myself. ”
"But now that it's an eventful time, it's not safe at night. Otherwise, Jing Zhu knew that I didn't protect you well, and he would kill me even if he was in prison. ”
"Then let him kill him. You're going to waste food rations anyway......"
The two of them still said a word, leaving the sound of fighting on the street that was gradually shrouded in darkness.
Xie Xiaoer is used to it, but Qu Youying is angry.
As long as she thought that Su Chang decided to say that Mu Jingzhu would not come to help her, she felt uncomfortable in her heart.
So when I went back to the courtyard, I didn't say a word, but hid in my room and cried.
The cry was heard by all who wept, including the figures who had been following them away.
The figure left only after making sure that Qu Youying had not been in contact with anyone else.
"Okay, everyone is gone, don't cry."
Mu Jingzhu, who had been lurking in her room early in the morning, only appeared after it was confirmed that the person had left.
Qu Youying wiped away her tears, looked around cautiously for a while, and then said, "Really gone?" ”
"Gone."
"Huh-" Qu Youying breathed a sigh of relief, sitting on the ground with her back leaning on the bed rail, "Why do you say that Thirteen Chuan always sends people to follow me?" If Su Changju hadn't given me the news in time, I really thought he was just messing with me unreasonably! ”
At that time, when Su Changdu pinched her cheek and scared her, he told her in a low voice and told her to be careful of being followed after she left with the acting.
At that time, she didn't have time to react, so she could only cover it up by crying. It wasn't until the crisis was lifted that her heart fell.
"It's not from the Thirteen Rivers."
"Isn't it?" Qu Youying blinked strangely, "Who is that?" ”
Mu Jingzhu didn't answer, just sat down beside her.
"Can't you say that?"
"It's just not sure yet."
"Oh."
Qu Youying nodded, didn't ask again, watching him sit quietly beside him, he always felt warm in his heart, and the worries and fears of the past few days have disappeared.
She rested her head on his shoulder, still a little displeased.
"The next time you want to join forces with Su Chang to help, please tell me, lest I be overpowered."
Mu Jingzhu chuckled, "Not this time. ”
"No?" Qu Youying sat up straight and crossed her legs to face him, "Then is he really bullying me?" And then do me a favor by the way? ”
Mu Jingzhu smiled, "It should be." ”
"That abominable stinky blind man! I'm going to kill him!" ”
Someone in the distance was drinking tea and sneezed several times in a row.
"Don't take him too seriously."
Mu Jingzhu suddenly looked at her with a straight face, and the darkness under her eyes was as thick as ink.
Qu Youying was stunned, she didn't know what was wrong with him, and said a little aggrieved, "But he bullied me!" ”
"I'll help you get it back."
At a very close distance, his expression was extremely serious, which made Qu Youying's heart, the softest place, move, and then that heart jumped wildly.
She subconsciously looked away from her eyes, looked at the night outside, and changed the topic and said, "We only have five days to investigate, and it's getting late today, in order to hide people's eyes, you will sleep in my room tonight, and I will give you a disguise tomorrow before going out." ”
"Okay."
Although she agreed, Mu Jingzhu looked at her side face and did not move.
Qu Youying said again, "Do you think Su Tong can really be trusted?" I'm afraid that when he is questioned, he will get into trouble if he says something wrong. ”
"Don't worry, he won't."
"Do you believe in him that much?"
Qu Youying just felt that Su Tong was not credible, and when she turned her head to probe his tone, how did she know that he would be so close.
Obviously, I didn't feel his breath spread on my face, but when I turned my head, I gently leaned against his lips.
She froze and forgot to move.
He smiled, not wanting to move.
