Chapter 80: Just a Temptation
got into the carriage and walked to the courtyard in the western suburbs, Wei Ruyi was very anxious, thinking that Yu Rouyi was scheming, Sister Yansleeve was by no means her opponent, if she was beaten upside down, no matter how high her martial arts were, she couldn't resist the gossip and reputation of the city.
Zhiyu came out all the way, sat in the same carriage with her, and saw her hand tightly grasping the window with a tense expression, and couldn't help but explain: "Miss, don't worry, since Miss Yu's humiliation has been made up, there must be witnesses, besides, didn't you also arrange for the Snow Traceless Hero to investigate?" β
"Wait......" Wei Ruyi interrupted her, turned her head and asked, "What did you say in the first two sentences?" β
"And witnesses?"
"It's not ......" Wei Ruyi always felt that she was panicking today, and she missed something.
Zhiyu pursed her lips and thought about it: "That's 'Miss Yu's humiliation has spread......"
"That's it, Zhiyu, you're so smart!" Wei Ruyi took her hand, and the fog shrouded in her heart instantly dispersed. Yu Rouyi's humiliation, Da Chun said yesterday that it was arranged in the alley, if it weren't for the two of them mingling in the beggars all year round, it would be impossible to know the news, it can be seen that the person behind the design did not want to completely ruin Yu Rouyi's reputation, but just wanted to pinch her.
That being the case, what Fang Cai Wantao said, the Yu family went to make trouble, was it because the Yu family and Yu Rouyi were crazy, did they have to make everyone know so that Yu Rouyi died?
Zhiyu looked confused, watching Wei Ruyi's complexion change several times before he said cautiously: "Miss, what did you think of?" β
"Stop the carriage first and go to the Fortune Restaurant." Wei Ruyi said immediately.
"Oh......" Zhiyu nodded dumbly, and immediately went to order the coachman.
Wan Tao was running behind the carriage, and when she saw the carriage turn around, she immediately stepped forward and asked, "Miss Wei, what's wrong with you?" β
Wei Ruyi lifted the curtain, looked at her anxious look, remembered the previous housekeeper, and only said, "There is one thing I'll get first, don't worry." β
"But Miss, she ......"
"Sister Yan Sleeve can also work hard, it will be fine, besides, the western suburbs are not far away, I will go around to the Chen Mansion in a while and invite the old lady to go over again." Wei Ruyi deliberately tested her.
Yu Rou came to the Chen Mansion at the request of the Minister, Sister Yan Sleeve was not a person who knew nothing with a blank mind, how could she not take her out of the Chen Mansion to the other courtyard overnight without any precautions? If she can go to another hospital, wouldn't it be easier to send her back to the Yu family?
Therefore, Sister Yansleeve is still in Chen's mansion, if there is a ghost in this girl's ring, she will definitely not let herself go to Chen's house first.
But in this courtyard, I'm afraid there are still strange things.
After speaking, Wan Tao's palms tightened slightly, and she only said anxiously on her face: "When Miss asked the slave to come, she said don't alarm the Chen family, so Miss Wei, you should go directly to the other courtyard." β
When Wei Ruyi heard her really say this, a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes, and she only said, "Then listen to you." With that, he lowered the curtain.
Zhiyu also reacted, and looked at her a little nervously: "Miss, the slave maid went to the Chen Mansion to find someone, right?" β
Wei Ruyi shook his head: "Don't rush first." She thought for a while, the carriage stopped, she got out of the carriage, and said to Wantao: "You wait for me in the lobby for a while, and I'll go back when I go." β
It is well known that Lyph House is her property, and she does not hide it.
Wan Tao was still vigilant, but seeing that she only let herself wait at the gate, she relaxed a little, and only urged: "Miss Wei, you must hurry." β
"Nature."
Wei Ruyi turned his head, looked at her and smiled shallowly, before stepping to the backyard.
Wan Tao was anxious in her heart, she kept looking anxiously on the street, as if she saw something, and retracted her head with peace of mind, and kept looking in the direction where Wei Ruyi left, and tried to talk to Uncle Fang.
"Shopkeeper, does Miss Wei often come to you?" She asked.
Uncle Fang has been the shopkeeper for so many years, how could he not have this eyesight, when he got out of the carriage, he could see Zhiyu's defensive appearance clearly.
Hearing this, he only smiled faintly: "Yes, I am a good cook, and Miss likes it very much." β
Wan Tao asked again, "Nothing else?" So what's in this backyard? β
Fang Bo glanced at her and said with a smile: "You want to know so much, go and see for yourself." β
"I ......" Wan Tao realized that Fang Bo was perfunctory to her, smiled awkwardly, and waited on the side with a cold face.
Uncle Fang ignored him and continued to flip through his account book, staring at her by the way.
Wei Ruyi arrived in the backyard, and Da Chun was already waiting here.
Xiao Yao's injuries are also healed, and he is learning some self-defense techniques from Da Chun, who has been mixing in the beggars for so many years, and still knows some three-legged cat kung fu.
When the two saw her coming, they immediately came over in surprise and saluted: "Why is Miss here!" β
Xiao Yao was particularly surprised, Wei Ruyi easily buckled her pulse, and made sure that the injuries on her body were healed, before she said: "There is a person named Wantao in the lobby, and now there are people with her on the street who are following, Da Chun, you have to find a way to lure people away." β
Da Chun received the task and geared up: "Miss, don't worry, I'm the best at this kind of thing." β
"Be careful, be safe."
"Yes." Da Chun saluted and ran out quickly, and Xiao Yao said, "Miss, isn't Wantao Miss Chen's personal ring?" β
"It's her, now you go to the Chen family, if Sister Yansleeve is in the house, you ask her to take someone to the western suburbs, if not, then relay the news to General Chen."
"Yes, slave and maid will do it."
"Faster." After Wei Ruyi finished speaking, he glanced at the almost renovated Laifu Building, breathed a sigh of relief with satisfaction, and asked Zhiyu to take the veil hat to put on, and then turned around and went out.
Wan Tao saw that she suddenly wore a veil hat, and she couldn't see her face clearly, so she looked at Zhiyu with some suspicion.
Zhiyu saw that she didn't move, so she only said, "What's wrong with my sister?" β
"It's okay, it's just Miss Wei, she ......"
"Miss is a girl who has not left the cabinet, didn't my sister say that the Yu family is making trouble, Miss naturally wants to cover her face." Know the rain and slip the road.
The more Wan Tao heard her say this, the more she doubted whether the person in front of her was Wei Ruyi, after all, Wei Ruyi was not a shy girl.
She thought and wanted to talk to Wei Ruyi, but Wei Ruyi ignored her and went straight to the carriage.
Wan Tao followed, a little uneasy, glanced at the few men who were pretending to buy things on the side of the street at the moment, and motioned to stare at the Laifu Restaurant before leaving, and found that Zhiyu did not return to the carriage, and couldn't help but say, "Are you going too?" β
"I'm not going, Miss just ordered, I'm worried that something will happen to the other hospital, so I'll go to the official first, and Miss will go to the other hospital with Sister Wantao." Zhiyu lowered his face and retreated to the side.
Wan Tao listened, and the hand in front of her tightened, this Wei Ruyi, why are there so many things!
But thinking of the other courtyard, she didn't dare to show her flaws, so she only squeezed out a smile, and then immediately asked the coachman to speed up and go towards the other courtyard.
As soon as they left, the people outside the Laifu Building did not follow, but only went to the inside of the Laifu Building, who knew that they had just gone, Da Chun had already called a group of beggars to make trouble, and they were entangled in it, and no one could get out.
As for the other half, they all followed Zhiyu's back, but they didn't want Zhiyu to go around twice, and before they could stop them, they had already gone around to the Qingxian Building, where the nobles were gathered.
Wei Ruyi sat in the carriage, obviously feeling that there were fewer people following behind, so he glanced at Wan Tao, who was following the carriage thoughtfully, and his smile became cold.
The western suburbs courtyard is a courtyard purchased by the Chen family in the early years, not big, but it has both the beauty of the south and the atmosphere of the north, it is the dowry given to the daughter by the old lady Chen, and later after the Chen family was taken back, this courtyard also returned to the hands of the Chen family, because it was neglected, so if someone did not mention it, I am afraid that the Chen family itself would not remember that there was such a courtyard.
When Wei Ruyi arrived, the weeds at the gate of the yard had grown to their ankles, and there were no guards at the door, and it looked cold and deserted, not like someone had come to make trouble at all.
Wei Ruyi got out of the carriage, and Wan Tao immediately came up to help her: "Miss Wei, everyone is inside, go in and have a look." β
"Hmm." Wei Ruyi really planned to go and see who the person behind this design was.
When Wan Tao heard her voice, she opened her mouth in surprise, Wei Ruyi only lifted the veil and smiled at her: "What, don't you want it to be me?" β
"No ......" Wan Tao couldn't help frowning, she really couldn't figure out what Wei Ruyi was going to do wearing a veil hat.
She looked back, wanting those who followed to block the way Wei Ruyi had just come, but when she turned around, she found that the four or five people who had followed were gone.
"Shall you go in?" Wei Ruyi asked her.
"Please ......" Wan Tao immediately came back to her senses, looked at Wei Ruyi's smiling eyes, and felt panicked inexplicably.
She led Wei Ruyi all the way inside, and said: "Then the Yu family is making a lot of trouble, and my young lady is also poor Miss Yu, so I brought her to this courtyard, don't look at this courtyard, but there are a few rooms that can be lived in as long as they sweep the ashes......"
She explained all the way, but found that Wei Ruyi didn't seem to have the slightest suspicion.
It's not like her......
"Miss Wei, did you find something?" Wan Tao finally noticed that something was wrong.
How could a cunning person like Wei Ruyi follow him so obediently and not say a word of nonsense? Unless she knew about it a long time ago and kept her hands on it.
Wan Tao's footsteps stopped, and Wei Ruyi had to stop, shaking her head helplessly: "I still want to meet your master." β
When Wan Tao heard this, her face changed greatly, and she immediately turned her head to run, but Wei Ruyi was already prepared, and she tripped her by raising her leg, and then pinched her mandible with one hand and unloaded it, and Wan Tao's chin was removed.
A few Wei family members who followed behind were stunned, Wei Ruyi only looked at Wan Tao's mouth, and sure enough, she found a poison sac in her back socket.
"Careful work......" Wei Ruyi finished speaking, and felt a cold wind surging around him.
She stood up and looked around, but there was still no one in the room.
She believed that Wan Tao tricked her into coming, and it was definitely not just to tease her.
"Be carefulββ!
With a soft drink, Xue Wuxie's figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye, he tightly pinched an arrow in his hand that flew towards Wei Ruyi.
Wei Ruyi raised his eyebrows slightly: "It's too early to come out." β
"If I don't come out, what if you die?" Xue Wuxian snorted lightly, looked at the arrow repeatedly, and then said, "The arrow is engraved with the mark of King Xiao's Mansion." β
"Then it's not like King Xiao is going to kill me." Wei Ruyi knew that Jiang Di would not leave evidence for killing him, but this strategy seemed familiar. Coming for yourself?
Wei Ruyi glanced at Wan Tao, leaned over and asked her, "Are you afraid of me?" β
Wan Tao's eyes stared at her indignantly, looking bent on death.
Wei Ruyi took the arrow in Xue Wuji's hand and let the Wei family's little servant go out first, before putting the arrow on her face: "It doesn't matter if you're not afraid, I'll make you afraid, for example, first scratch your little face little by little, then apply honey, and then find an ant nest, and let the ants gnaw your flesh clean little by little...... By the way, I will also give you a mirror so that you can see with your own eyes how your face is eaten and only the bones of Sensen are left......"
Before Wei Ruyi finished speaking, Wan Tao's eyes already showed fear. Killing is not a nod to the ground, but torture is not.
She looked at Wei Ruyi like a ghost, her mouth moved, and she couldn't say a complete word.
Wei Ruyi smiled lightly, and with a slight lift of her hand, a bloody mark was left on her face.
"Noβ"
Wan Tao finished speaking vaguely, kept shaking her head and shrunk back, Xue Wuxian just stepped on her legs: "Don't force me to exert myself, otherwise your little arms and legs are not enough for me to step on a few times." β
Wan Tao didn't dare to move again, Wei Ruyi looked at her while thinking about the purpose of the person behind this matter.
Is it for himself, or for Lou Yan, or for the Chen family?
She supported her face with her hands, sat on one side and asked Xue Wuji, "Are there many people inside?" β
"Not much, seven or eight dead people."
"Dead people?" Wei Ruyi looked up in surprise, Xue Wuxian looked at her with an expression of why she didn't say it earlier, and was a little aggrieved: "You didn't ask me, and there is such a strong smell of blood in the air......"
"It's broken." Wei Ruyi immediately got up and looked at Wantao again: "Gagged her and tied her up, the dead body inside had to think of a way." β
"How about throwing it into the well next door? The next door is the courtyard of King Rui. Xue Wuxian suddenly laughed.
Wei Ruyi looked at him who seemed to have been calculated a long time ago: "What else do you know?" β
Xue Wuxian seemed to see something behind Wei Ruyi, his eyes moved slightly, he leaned over and pulled the arrow in Wei Ruyi's hand, and said quietly: "Early in the morning, you asked me to check the little guy and the coachman who drove Yu Rouyi, I checked, and they were all killed, and I traced it all the way, and the body happened to be in this courtyard." I guess someone wants to plant the dirty dirt that slandered Yu Rouyi's innocence on you and the Chen family.
I wanted to tell you in the morning, but I met you and this girl and hurriedly ran out of the house......" Before he finished speaking, as soon as he raised his hand, the arrow flew out, making a 'ding-' sound in mid-air, and the other arrow that was about to shoot was knocked to the ground.
Xue Wuxian looked at that place helplessly: "Hey, this kind of trick played by children, can you play it with another person?" β
The man who shot the arrow in the dark turned slightly pale, turned his head and left.
Xue Wuxian continued to say to Wei Ruyi: "After I came with you, I checked this courtyard in advance, and only then did I find the dead man. But one thing you are not mistaken, that is, so many people behind this girl ring are masters, and you transferred all the people away, and I saved a lot of trouble. β
"Don't talk about that yet, I'm afraid someone will come over soon."
As soon as Wei Ruyi finished speaking, he saw that the little guy he had just sent out had already run back.
Wei Ruyi was about to tell Xue Wuxian to turn his head and find that he had disappeared with Wantao at some point, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but lift lightly.
"Miss, someone came from outside, saying that someone reported the crime, and someone murdered here." The little guy looked a little scared.
"What else?" Wei Ruyi was not in a hurry, and continued to sit steadily.
Seeing her so calm, the little girl couldn't help but say: "Miss, the person who came is Jing Zhaoyin, he has always been iron-faced and selfless, and he has brought a lot of people with him, I'm afraid there is any evidence." Miss Chen also arrived with someone, and she was at the door, Jing Zhaoyin actually asked someone to stop her, saying that she was suspicious. β
Wei Ruyi nodded: "Since Lord Jing Zhaoyin is iron-faced and selfless, please invite him in." β
The little guys looked at each other, not knowing what medicine was sold in Wei Ruyi's gourd, but they still went to believe it.
After a while, Jing Zhaoyin had already rushed in with the officials, and he didn't care about Wei Ruyi, and went straight to the courtyard to search.
"Your Excellency."
Wei Ruyi looked at the person who came and saluted with a smile.
It is true that Jing Zhao Yin Tiemian is selfless and not afraid of power, otherwise he would not have beaten himself ten boards in front of Lou Yan and his uncle last time, and the people behind him thought of using him against themselves, which was indeed a good idea.
Jing Zhaoyin saw that she was still smiling like this, and her attitude softened, and she only said: "This official received a report that several important witnesses were killed, so I came to check." β
"Human witnesses? What is the witness? Wei Ruyi asked him.
Jing Zhaoyin didn't say it, after all, it was about the innocence of her daughter's family, and now that the case has not been clarified, it is not the time to say it.
But he didn't say anything, the woman who came a few steps behind him and a few young men who looked at their faces ran angrily, pointed at Wei Ruyi's nose and scolded: "You are still here pretending not to know? Wei Ruyi, you can forget if you hate Rouyi, but you are also everyone's lady, how can you do such a dirty thing! β
scolded inexplicably, Wei Ruyi's mind turned again, and he reacted: "You are Sister Yu's family?" β
The woman at the head had red eyes, and her body was weak from crying, and when she heard this, she only choked up in a hoarse voice: "Miss Wei, why do you want to treat me like this...... What a monstrous vendetta ......"
Wei Ruyi sneered in her heart, and dared to say that the Yu family came to make trouble, and they came to trouble themselves.
Most of them thought that after Wan Tao deceived them, the Yu family would make trouble again, Wan Tao acted as a witness, and there were also the bodies of the Yu family's coachman and the little servant, plus Yu Rouyi's bitter trick of hitting the stone lion a few days ago, it was really human and material evidence, and she had a perfect motive for killing.
Wonderful!
Wei Ruyi sighed with emotion, most of the people behind the design were not Yu Rouyi, but the people who really calculated that she ruined her innocence.
"If Mrs. Yu blames Ruyi because of Miss Yu's collision with the stone lion, Ruyi can only explain that the road was slippery on a rainy day that day, and Miss Yu accidentally broke her foot." Wei Ruyi said lightly.
When the young man beside Mrs. Yu heard this, he almost rushed to her with a hideous face, and yelled at her: "You are still pretending here, what Miss Wei, I think you are an extremely hypocritical and vicious and disgusting snake and scorpion!" You hurt Yi'er and ruined your innocence, and now you are still here pretending not to know, Wei Ruyi, aren't you afraid of thunder and thunder? β
If it is too much, Jing Zhaoyin can't listen to it: "Young Master Qiu, before the matter is settled, you pay attention to your words!" β
"What words? Do you still want officials to protect each other? My lord, you won't take the Yu family seriously because my uncle is now framed and put in prison! He grimaced with a dark face.
Jing Zhaoyin looked at him who was biting indiscriminately, his face was so dark that he couldn't do it, and the officials who happened to go in to search came out: "My lord, there is nothing in it, just a deserted house." β
"How come there is nothing, have you looked carefully?" Qiu Shi questioned him.
"We searched twice inside and out, and it was impossible to leave something as big as a corpse behind." The official was also a little angry, and only replied with a cold face.
Qiu Shi didn't believe it: "I'll find it myself!" After speaking, he glared at Wei Ruyi viciously, turned his head and ran in.
Wei Ruyi was not in a hurry, Jing Zhaoyin asked her: "Why did Miss Wei come here early in the morning, and Miss Chen also came with someone early in the morning, but what happened?" β
Facing Jing Zhaoyin's inquiry, Wei Ruyi only said: "Sister Yansleeve was invited by me, this courtyard was originally my biological mother's dowry, and adults also know that I am about to get married now, and the dowry has not yet been settled, so I ......"
Wei Ruyi didn't finish speaking, Jing Zhaoyin already understood.
Compared with the Yu family's flawed complaint early on, he is now more willing to believe Wei Ruyi. After all, whether it is behavior or words, Wei Ruyi is more open.
After a while, Qiu Shi had already come out, but his face fell to the ground, and when he saw Wei Ruyi, he was so angry that he directly threatened her: "Wei Ruyi, where did you hide the body?" β
Wei Ruyi calmly raised his eyes to look at him: "Where did the corpse come from?" β
"How dare you lie......"
As he said that, he was about to make a move, but Wei Ruyi raised his hand and knocked on his wrist, making him take it back in pain, only to hear her say coldly: "Qiu Gongzi doesn't seem to know his identity. This is the Chen family's industry, even if you want to make trouble, you don't have to make trouble! β
"You ββ!"
"Am I not clear enough? Qiu Gongzi was angry when he came in the morning, and he didn't explain what was going on, and he brought someone from the government to come, why, he found out that one of my daughters' house was here, so it was easy to bully, right? β
Wei Ruyi asked him in a cold voice, and the two little servants of the Wei family who were so frightened that they shrank their necks reacted and hurriedly protected her.
Qiu Shi only felt that the numb tendons at his wrist seemed to have been hit, and his arm twitched badly, and Mrs. Yu's face turned pale: "Miss Wei, since you have harmed Yi'er, why don't you dare to admit it?" β
"I haven't harmed, what does Mrs. Yu want to force me to admit?" Wei Ruyi turned around and asked her. Mrs. Yu doesn't know much, but she can raise a daughter like Yu Rouyi, I'm afraid she is not a gentle person, and now she looks so sad, I don't know if it's true or not.
Mrs. Yu's hand trembled slightly, changed her weak color, and pointed at her with a little anger: "You still refuse to admit it, my Yi'er ...... last night" She didn't speak, only said: "It must be you, Yi'er just came to the capital, and I only have a dislike for you!" And if it weren't for you, why would Chen Yansleeve agree to take Yi'er in the middle of the night, it must be that she has a guilty conscience, so you made an appointment to come here early in the morning to kill the coachman and the little guy who suddenly disappeared yesterday......"
"Although I don't know what happened to Miss Yu, it seems that Sister Yansleeve took in Miss Yu who had an accident yesterday, and it seems that she kindly fed the donkey's liver and lungs." Wei Ruyi smiled and sarcastically mocked her: "Although I don't understand why Mrs. Yu has to bite me and Sister Yansleeve, but now that you are accusing me with no evidence, it is better to ask the government to track down the person who really harmed Miss Yu." β
After speaking, he looked at the little guy in front of him: "Go and tell Sister Yansleeve, let her send Miss Yu back to the Yu Mansion quickly, don't do good things related to the Yu family in the future, save all your kindness to the white-eyed wolf." β
Jing Zhaoyin listened to Wei Ruyi's sarcasm in his mouth, pretended not to hear it, and turned around lightly to look at the scenery.
Mrs. Yu's face became more and more pale, and Qiu Shi gritted his teeth angrily: "Wei Ruyi, don't think you ......"
"What do you dare to threaten me?" Wei Ruyi turned his head and scolded him.
"You...... I ......" Qiu Shi didn't expect her to be still spicy, her face was slightly blue, and she held back a sentence: "Then let's see!" β
Wei Ruyi raised his eyebrows lightly and looked at Jing Zhaoyin: "My lord, he threatens me." β
Jing Zhaoyin looked at Wei Ruyi, who actually came to complain, coughed lightly, and then looked at Qiu Shi seriously: "Qiu Gongzi is inevitably excessive, the matter has not yet been clarified, and this is the Chen family's property, this official heard what you said and personally brought people to search for it, it is already overstepping, how can you be so rampant?" β
Qiu Shi's teeth clenched: "You officials protect each other!" β
"Then Mr. Qiu will go and sue the emperor!" Jing Zhaoyin also has a temper, he is upright, but it doesn't mean that he can tolerate a fool like Qiu Shi.
After speaking, he said to Wei Ruyi again: "It's really presumptuous today, wait a little later, this official will personally go to ask Old Lady Chen for guilt." β
Wei Ruyi also politely returned the courtesy: "My lord is on official business, this matter Ruyi will say to my grandfather, don't worry about it." β
Jing Zhaoyin saw that she was not arrogant or impatient, and appreciated it more and more, smiled and nodded, and then took people away.
As soon as he left, Chen Yansleeve ran in with someone, and when he saw the Yu family confronting Wei Ruyi, his face was slightly cold: "Ruyi, what's wrong?" β
Wei Ruyi repeated Mrs. Yu's words, Mrs. Yu's face was a little unbearable, Chen Yansleeve was not such a kind person, after listening, he ordered his subordinates in front of them: "Send Miss Yu away immediately!" β
"Yes."
The subordinate immediately ran away, and Qiu Shi looked at Chen Yansleeve as just a woman, Jing Zhaoyin was no longer there, and he wanted to continue to fight ruthlessly, and wanted to grab Chen Yansleeve with his hand, but before anyone could catch it, Chen Yansleeve raised his foot neatly, and Qiu Shi flew away like an arrow from the string, and hit the courtyard wall before falling to the ground in embarrassment.
"Little boy!" She sneered lightly, and then looked at Mrs. Yu coldly: "I am a five-rank female general named by the Holy Lord, if Madam still wants this little gangster to live, it is better to take it out, otherwise I will have the right to directly kill the person who trespassed into the mansion!" β
Mrs. Yu was a little surprised when she saw Chen Yansleeve being so cold and hard: "Yansleeve, this matter is Wei Ruyi's ......."
"Madame doesn't want to think about it, how old is Ruyi, how old is Miss Yu? Ruyi may not even understand the affairs of men and women, so she can find someone to ruin Miss Yu's innocence? Even if you lie, you have to find a better scapegoat. Chen Yansleeve was already on the verge of breaking out, and the murderous aura came out all over his body, Rao is Wei Ruyi was surprised, it turned out that Sister Yansleeve was so powerful!
Qiu Shi was in pain and seemed to be about to fall apart, Mrs. Yu knew that she couldn't please her today, so she didn't stay longer, she only looked at them hatefully, and then turned around and left.
Chen Yansleeve watched the person leave, and immediately turned his head to look at Wei Ruyi with concern, Wei Ruyi only patted her hand, and said to the little girl behind her: "Tell Da Chun Erchun, Yu Rouyi's innocence will be spread immediately." β
"Ruyi, wouldn't this be too ruthless, after all, Rouyi doesn't know about it......" Chen Yansleeve still had some pity for Yu Rouyi, Wei Ruyi only pulled her and said: "Good sister, think about it carefully, if she doesn't know, why did she go to Chen's Mansion instead of other places?" β
"Xu is because of the ......"
"It's not. If it is close, the Wei Mansion is closer, and the reason why she went to find her sister is that she knows that her sister still cares about the friendship with her when she was a child. The persimmons are all picked up and pinched, and my sister is usually decisive, but she is still too good to treat. Wei Ruyi said softly.
Chen Yansleeve was silent, and Xiao Yao saw this, so he left quickly.
After she left, Wei Ruyi waved the others away, and asked Xue Wuxian to bring Wantao out: "Sister take her to see her grandfather, I'll take care of the rest......"
"Wait." Chen Yansleeve called out to her, and turned his head to look at the other maid beside him: "Mu Ying, you will follow Ruyi to serve in the future." β
Wei Ruyi was slightly stunned, and Chen Yansleeve explained: "You don't have to worry, Mu Ying was picked up by me on the battlefield, and she has been following me for more than ten years, and she saved my life several times, and she is absolutely loyal." And she knows kung fu, and I feel more at ease with her following you. β
"Sister doesn't have to be so ......"
"It should. The situation in the capital is grim, I haven't been back for a long time, and I'm not good at reading people's hearts, but I still have a kung fu to protect myself, but you are different, you are smarter than us, and my sister knows that although you are young, you have more things in your heart than us, and now you are also protecting me. Ruyi, that's all my sister can do. Chen Yansleeve was a little ashamed, he couldn't imagine that he had the ability to fight, and when he returned to this inner pavilion, he was calculated everywhere.
Mu Ying understood Chen Yansleeve's thoughts, and immediately knelt down and saluted: "The slave maid has seen Miss." β
Wei Ruyi looked at it and thought about it, having a girl ring who knows kung fu and understands things by his side is indeed better than only Tan'er and Zhiyu, so he also nodded.
After Chen Yansleeve took away the Wantao tied up with five flowers, Wei Ruyi got into the carriage and went directly to the National Teacher's Mansion, she wanted to ask Lou Yan to see if he knew something.
After he left, Xue Wuxian immediately hid in the shadows.
The shooter who was angry with him before saw him disappear, and hurried back to report the news.
On the cold marble floor, he knelt with his head on the ground.
In the room, there was only the sound of the person holding two jade stones in his hand, as if a poisonous snake was spitting bright red apricots, staring at its prey coldly, just waiting for the prey to come out and bite in an instant.
I don't know how long it took, when the shooter thought he might have been kneeling for a day, he heard a low laugh from the first man: "You are afraid of this king? β
"The minions don't dare."
"Don't dare?" The cold voice was hidden with a smile, making it impossible to guess his intentions.
The archer lowered his head a little, and he could almost smell the cold breath emanating from the marble slab, and finally said: "It's the subordinates who are incompetent and haven't done anything, and I ask the prince to punish him." β
"No need."
With a faint sentence, the shooter unexpectedly raised his head and saw his uncharacteristically kind: "This king's time is very expensive, and it is a waste of time to punish you." β
He smiled softly, and the shooter also breathed a sigh of relief, laughed, and was about to kowtow when a sharp sword passed through his heart, killing him with a single blow.
The man with the sword pulled the sword back, kicked him away, and then said: "Lord Wang, the identity of this person today is mysterious, and we haven't found it yet." β
"I can't imagine that Wei Ruyi has a lot of masters around her, first her aunt who taught her to study medicine, and now she is a mysterious master, no wonder those fools have repeatedly failed to succeed."
"That Yu family ......"
"Don't worry, the Yu family is a waste, Yu Rouyi is very much to my liking, bad enough, and ruthless enough." King Rong smiled lightly before he said, "This incident was originally a temptation, and it is not bad to find out such a master." β
"yes, so what's next for you? King Xiao has already planned to win over the queen and the Liu family, and now that King Xuan is dead, the emperor is likely to restore Liu Cairen's position as queen because of guilt. The attendant was a little worried, after all, the identity of King Rong's biological mother was not as good as the queen, although there was a princess Anchang, but Princess Anchang had already been separated from the emperor.
King Rong thought for a while, and only said, "Don't worry, see what Lou Yan does." He pondered, thinking about something, and only after a long time did he instruct others: "It is time for the Almighty Master of Princess Anchang's Mansion to come out and carry out activities." β
"But his legs ......"
"Who said that if you break a leg, you can't be a living bodhisattva who helps the world?" King Rong looked at the literary play in his hand, his eyes like poisonous snakes raised slightly, and the cold air was wanton: "Tell him that I will only give him three months of time, if it can't be done, don't blame this king for being ruthless." After saying that, the maid on one side took out a stack of papers and handed it to the guard in front of her.
The guard took the paper, vaguely saw a few words in it, and hurriedly lowered his head to do it.
Master Almighty was thinking about when King Rong would send him something recently, he looked at his completely useless legs, and he just wanted to strangle Wei Ruyi alive.
"What is the master thinking?"
The letter was delivered to Magnum, and Magnum hurriedly helped Rong Chang to stand up.
Magnum opened the letter and looked at it, before he smiled and said, "The poor monk is thinking about when His Highness will come to order?" β
The attendant curiously glanced at the letter in his hand, and then caught a glimpse of a few words, and then said, "The things that Your Highness asked you to do are all coincidences." β
"Yes, His Royal Highness King Rong does have the ability to predict the future, and the poor monk is just enjoying the name of this living Bodhisattva for His Royal Highness King Rong." Magnum smiled humbly.
The attendant saw that he carefully folded the paper and put it away, and he didn't ask too much, so he turned around and went back to his life.
When he left, he smiled and said to Rong Chang's face: "Go clean up, we're going to say goodbye to the princess." β
"Where are you going?"
"Go to the Kim family." The monk smiled, limped away with a cane.
Wei Ruyi went all the way to the National Teacher's Mansion here, and only after getting off the carriage did he see an old acquaintance.
Mu Yun was still thinking about how to get in, and when she saw Wei Ruyi coming, she happened to step forward and walk with her: "You want to see Xiao Yan?" β
"You're going too?"
Aren't they both talking nonsense?
Mu Yun looked at the bright smile in Wei Ruyi's eyes, coughed embarrassedly, and motioned for Wei Ruyi to go first, Wei Ruyi didn't say much, and led him in.
As soon as the two of them entered the door, they smelled the medicinal fragrance all over the courtyard.
Ah Zhong didn't expect Wei Ruyi to come suddenly, he looked a little nervous, and greeted him and said, "Miss Wei, why are you here?" β
"Brother Yan, he ......"
"Your Excellency is fine. Oh yes. Ah Zhong laughed: "Your Excellency said that the affairs of the Yu family have the shadow of King Rong behind them, and he asked you not to interfere with them for the time being, and he will deal with it." β
Wei Ruyi nodded and wanted to walk in, but he obviously saw the panic in Ah Zhong's eyes.
Lingxi walked out of it and looked at Wei Ruyi calmly: "His poison is not a big deal, you can get better if you take medicine, don't come to quarrel with him." β
"Senior sister...... Mu Yun looked at her, and said with a smile, Lingxi only glanced at him coldly: "He knows that you are coming, let you go home." After saying that, he left in the cold.
Mu Yun watched her leave in frustration, then exhaled lightly and said to Wei Ruyi: "Go out together?" β
Wei Ruyi glanced at him.
It looks like a cold one, but I didn't expect it to be a stupid big man.
Coming out of the National Teacher's Mansion, Wei Ruyi silently made his own little abacus in his heart, and before the abacus was finished, he saw the carriage of the Runan Palace's house stopped in front of him, and as soon as the curtain was opened, Princess Runan jumped out of the carriage and looked at her with a complicated face: "Wei Ruyi, can you ...... it?"
She wanted to speak and stopped, Wei Ruyi already knew what was going on.
But since the Yu family is behind King Rong......
Her lips pulled up slightly.
Seeing her like this, Princess Runan gritted her teeth and was a little unwilling, but she still restrained herself and said, "Miss Wei, can I invite you to go to Runan Palace?" β
"Qi Gongzi is sick?" Wei Ruyi asked her.
Princess Runan seemed to be poked in the sore spot, her pale lips pursed into a line, and as if there was something unspeakable, she said: "I know that the palace has many misunderstandings with you, but Huang'er is innocent......"
"He was born in the Runan Palace, and he can only blame you if he is innocent. I won't go to the palace, it's not early, so I'll leave first. After Wei Ruyi finished speaking, Mu Ying had already guarded him vigilantly.
Princess Runan looked at the guards who were also waiting at the gate of the National Teacher's Mansion, where did she dare to use force? He could only soften his tone and pleaded: "I can apologize to you." β
"There is no need to apologize, Ruyi cherishes his life, and he is afraid of death." Wei Ruyi looked at her with a smile and couldn't hold back her anger, and continued: "But if the princess can promise me two things, I am willing to save it." β
"Don't say two things, twenty things are fine, as long as you can save my phoenix......"
"Okay, the first thing, I won't go to the Runan Palace, and send the prince of Qi to the Wei Mansion. The second thing ......" Wei Ruyi smiled lightly, beckoned Princess Runan to come forward and whisper a few words, looking at her face from white to blue, before saying: "If it can be done, I will be able to save Gongzi Qi." β
Princess Runan clenched her teeth, as if she was trying her best to suppress the anger in her heart, and finally nodded.
Wei Ruyi also breathed a sigh of relief, Lou Yan didn't let her get involved in King Rong's affairs, so she wouldn't get involved, but it was still okay to fold his two arms!
