Chapter 264: Right and Wrong
In the secret room, Tang Jiu'er carefully observed the strangulation marks, finger joints and nails of the two corpses of Ye Zhiqing and Zhou Xiaolan.
Grandma was silently drinking tea on the side.
"It's all suicide." After Tang Jiu'er couldn't find any other possibility, he had to face this result.
Grandma put down the teacup: "Coincidence? ”
"Definitely not...... Thinking that it was Honggu's failure, they didn't wait for the agreed signal, for fear of revealing their identities, they could only commit suicide, and Yu'er was in the trial, she didn't know about this action, and she escaped by luck......"
Grandma got up and came to the two corpses and looked at them: "Since they are Dong Zhang's people and have eaten my food all these years, do you think I should ask Dong Zhang for some benefits and come back?" ”
Tang Jiu'er frowned: "What do you mean ......?"
Grandma smiled: "Someone is sleepy, then you have to send a pillow, and let Hua Rou and Yu'er come over together tomorrow morning!" ”
Tang Jiu'er was uneasy: "Hua Rou is also coming?" ”
"That's right!" Grandma looked at Tang Jiu'er: "She wants to be the master of the door, so she has to save some qualifications, right?" ”
……
The bodies were thrown into the river, and the blood stains in the cabin were quickly cleaned up.
Mu Junwu sat on the ground between Liu Yanyu and Zhang Yingju, and listened to Liu Yantao pour bitter water: "It is said that the pro-soldiers are the backers of the royal family, phew!" Do you know what he called me? 'Who's that?' ’! He called me 'that who'! I don't even know him?! ”
Mu Junwu sighed: "My second brother is the most familiar in his life, I'm afraid that the only ones I know are those gnats and crickets." ”
"That's right! This is what he knows best! Hahaha! Liu Yanyan laughed and drank angrily.
Zhang Yingju said to Mu Junwu: "On the day when the king performed martial arts, he not only hurt Brother Liu's face, but also aroused public anger. ”
"Oh? What's going on? ”
"Since ancient times, the importance of state affairs is only worship and Rong, this army has always been cautious in its words, obviously presented a courtesy, the king did not want to memorize, just read it, but he actually began to talk nonsense, and finally said that everyone can ...... Troops out! ”
Mu Junwu frowned, Pan Yue poured wine for the others on the side, and answered excitedly when he heard the words: "Send troops? Funeral! It's just a must-have head! ”
Zhang Yingju shook his head and sighed: "The generals are angry, and they are already dissatisfied, but the king doesn't care at all, and he even forgets such an important matter as rewarding the labor army, this is ...... Alas! ”
Liu Yanyu complained to Zhang Yingju at this time: "I said Lao Zhang, you should also mention a few more words by the king's side!" ”
"Can I forget such an important thing?" Zhang Yingju was also full of complaints: "The matter of rewarding the labor army, I have written three times, but the king has no reaction at all." As for wanting to meet the king and admonish him in court, it is even more delusional, the king only has the right minister in his eyes now, and we don't even have a chance to see him! ”
"Nonsense!" Mu Junwu was so angry that he slapped the cabin board: "Although my father set up two phases on the left and right, it is just to follow the Zhou ceremony, in fact, it means that the power is light, didn't he say when he welcomed the two as the left and right envoys, 'Doing the privy council to make it real, it is more important than the prime minister'...... The two adults are the most trusted by their father! ”
Zhang Yingju immediately straightened his clothes and saluted Mu Junwu with his fists: "Gongzi is a person who understands, if the king has half of your virtue, it will not be in the hands of the right minister now!" ”
After Zhang Yingju finished speaking, he and Liu Yanyan glanced at each other, and drank bitterly.
Mu Junwu looked at Pan Yue and Yuan Quan: "I didn't expect that under the rule of the second brother, there are so many rights and wrongs..."
Liu Yanyao put down the wine jar and scolded bitterly: "The first king is too fond of Concubine Yuan De, otherwise he would not be sitting on this throne!" ”
Mu Junwu's eyes were deep.
……
It was late at night, Tang Jiu'er was dressed in civilian clothes, carrying a small bag and going to the medicinal herb store in Yuzhou City.
Along the way, there were always people scattered around the city in a hurry, which made her feel faintly uneasy.
Quickened his pace to the backyard room of the medicinal herb store, pushed the door in, and Linlin greeted him happily: "You are here!" ”
Tang Jiu'er closed the door, and just as she was about to speak, Linlin pulled her inside: "Look, I specially cooked it, we can have two drinks." ”
Tang Jiu'er glanced at the carefully prepared wine and food on the table, and reached out and pressed it on Linlin's shoulder: "I also want to have a drink with you, but I'm afraid it won't be peaceful tonight." I've seen a lot of sneaky people along the way, I'm afraid that something big will happen in this Yuzhou City, so you'd better leave quickly......"
Lin Lin didn't seem to be listening to what Tang Jiu'er said, she instead took out a short dart from her arms and handed it to Tang Jiu'er.
As soon as Tang Jiu'er saw the short dart, she was stunned, she stared at the short dart for a long time before stretching out her hand: "How can you have this?" ”
"This is what my father left me before he died, and he said that it was because of this that I met you."
Tang Jiu'er's tears fell: "Yes, back then, I used this poison dart to assassinate him, but he stuck this poison dart and told me that poison should not be used like this." ”
"Listen to my father, you've fought each other many times."
"What kind of fight is that...... It's just that I was unwilling to shoot again and again, trying to kill him, but the result was ......"
"You've failed."
Tang Jiu'er shook his head, tears dripping down one by one: "No, those toxins have accumulated in his body silently, and when I understand how to use poisons, he left...... I killed him after all. ”
Tang Jiu'er grabbed the short dart and cried uncontrollably-the years have passed, the past is vivid, and the short time they once spent together is a demon that she can never get out of, after all, her beloved died in her hands.
Lin Lin hurriedly hugged Tang Jiu'er: "I was ignorant and hated you before. Later, I found out that you were the person my dad cared about and defended the most, and I didn't know why until my dad gave it to me before he died. Linlin couldn't help crying: "He said that you are a good person, you used to be just a blind eye, but unfortunately his limit is approaching, otherwise he will ask you back to be my mother-in-law, so that I can be my mother!" ”
"Don't talk about it......" Tang Jiu'er hugged Linlin: "It's all over." ”
"Mother......" Linlin called, causing Tang Jiu'er's body to tremble, and then hugged Linlin tighter: "Yes, my mother is here." ”
Lin Lin hugged Tang Jiu'er and burst into tears: "My father must be very happy now, I got you for him." ”
Tang Jiu'er closed his eyes and wept: "If he was willing to speak, I would have married him a long time ago......"
Just when Tang Jiu'er and Linlin were embracing, seven or eight people carrying oil drums sneakily came to the medicinal herb store and quietly poured oil around the medicinal herb store, while the other few were holding broken firewood and straw and throwing them around the doorpost.
At this moment, a rocket shot up into the sky in the distance and quickly disappeared.
The leader of the gang whispered, "Do it! ”
Immediately, the torches lit the firewood and grass.
In an instant, the fire spread rapidly, and the entire medicinal herb store burned.
At the same time, in the entire city of Yuzhou, many places also burst into scorching fires.
