Chapter 309: Panic
He peeked at Mrs. Yang in disbelief, saw that her face was flat, and then looked at Cui Liang lying on the bed, suppressed the strangeness in his heart, and quietly moved back.
Maybe he was thinking too much, Mrs. Yang shouldn't have known about that, otherwise how could she be so calm at this moment?
Yes, she just didn't know, the Cui family erased all the traces back then.
Wuyang continued to comfort himself in his heart, but he left a shadow in the end.
Lin Qingwan raised her head and glanced at Wuyang, seeing that his face was pale, and she lowered her eyebrows and didn't dare to look this way, and pulled the corners of her mouth slightly.
Cui Liang is dead, and Wuyang is much easier to deal with.
Lin Qingwan threw all the paper money in her hand, helped Mrs. Yang up after putting on three sticks of incense, and bowed slightly to the Cui family's chief guard: "The hour is not early, so we won't bother much." β
At this time, it was already early in the morning, and it would be dawn soon, and the chief of the guard was not good at keeping people, so he hurriedly sent the two to the entrance of the shed.
Lin Qingwan silently glanced back at the white shed, people have souls, I don't know if Cui Liang's soul is still here at this time.
If only he were, let him know why he died.
Mrs. Yang was hit a lot tonight, and her body was a little unstable.
Lin Qingwan helped her back to the house, and Mrs. Yang grabbed her hand, "It's not early, don't toss back and forth, stay and sleep with me." β
Lin Qingwan knew that she had a lot to ask, so she nodded and said, "Okay!" β
Mama Yang hurriedly took the girl and retreated, and few people inside and outside the Lin family's courtyard could fall asleep tonight.
And Wuyang in the white shed was not only unable to sleep, but also full of fear, he just squinted his eyes sleepily, and saw Xie Yiming in his dream.
He was also present when Xie Yiming fell from his horse and died, compared to Cui Liang, he was even more miserable, because the horse went crazy and threw him off the horse when he happened to touch the stone, and the horse even trampled on his body frantically, and when he finally rescued the person, the person was already a blur of flesh and blood.
After that, he had nightmares for several days, but then he got better, but he didn't expect to dream of him again today.
Wuyang thought, this is not only because he just saw Mrs. Yang, but also because of Cui Liang's death.
Why did Cui Liang fall from his horse and die?
Faintly, there was a chill running up his spine, was it really retribution?
Xie Yiyang has been exiled, and he can be regarded as retribution, so what about him, will he also be retaliated against?
Wuyang's face was ugly, he shook his head, shaved off the cranky thoughts in his mind, and began to think, maybe all this is not the so-called "retribution", but man-made?
He got up and walked over to the chief of the guard, and asked in a low voice, "What about the horses, chief of the guard?" β
The chief of the guard looked at him suspiciously, Wuyang paused, and then lowered his voice and said, "I just think it's all too coincidental, why did a deer run over, and then we fell off the horse as soon as we went to chase Brother Cui?" Have you checked the horse? β
The suspicion in the eyes of the chief of the guard faded, and he didn't want to say more, but he remembered that Wuyang and the young master had always had a good relationship, maybe he was really for the young master, so he hesitated for a moment and said: "We have checked, and we can't find anything for the time being, but we have brought all the horse corpses, and we will look for them after entering the city tomorrow." β
And not only the horse corpse, but also the young master's body should be checked, and it is naturally impossible to check the abdomen, but it is no problem to check the epidermis.
Wuyang asked in a daze, "You say, could it be that someone wants to kill Brother Cui?" "Or a ghost?
The guard's mouth was very tight, "Now we haven't found anything, don't dare to speculate, it just so happens that Young Master Ling is in Suzhou, and he is in charge when we see him tomorrow." β
Wuyang tugged at the corners of his mouth, and went back to sit down in a daze, but I don't know where a gust of wind blew, which made the lights in the white shed shake, and the others didn't care, but he couldn't help but feel cold in his heart and hugged his knees.
He knew Mrs. Yang because he had met her in the capital, when he, Cui Liang and Xie Yiming were both students of Guozixue.
The three of them all entered the country to study because of their excellent academics and family backgrounds, and they were among the best talents in the Central Plains, especially Cui Liang, who was regarded as a genius since he was a child.
How many outstanding disciples are there in Cui's generation, and then their reputation is not as good as Cui Liang, even Cui Ling, who has seen talents since he was a child, is slightly inferior in front of Cui Liang.
So Cui Liang is very proud, and he is equally dazzling after going to the capital, but that was before Xie Yiming entered Guozi School.
In the second year of their arrival in the capital, Xie Yiming entered Guozi School, he was younger, more talented, and most importantly, he was lively and heroic, not only with the gentlemen, but also with his classmates.
Even Lin Jiang, who was once famous all over the world, once praised him for not being inferior to himself.
Wuyang's heart was stagnant, yes, Xie Yiming's fiancΓ©e is Lin Jiang's sister, isn't that......
Wuyang's eyes widened slightly, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva nervously, he shrunk himself tighter, maybe everything was too much for him, as soon as the incident came out, Uncle Cui realized that something was wrong and took the initiative to wipe them clean up, they shouldn't have found out.
If you find out, how can it be so calm in the past few years?
Wuyang couldn't care about recalling, he made excuses for himself over and over again, and denied himself again and again, and finally couldn't help but recall the events of the year.
There is no first place in the article, so Cui Liang is naturally not convinced that he falls behind Xie Yiming every time he evaluates, because in his opinion, his article is not worse than Xie Yiming, but the other party is good at catering to Mr., so he was rated first.
But in Guozi Xue, it doesn't matter if his grades are suppressed by Xie Yiming, even outside, his reputation is gradually inferior to Xie Yiming.
That year, there was a rumor in the middle of the court, and His Majesty wanted to open a Jinshi before the Mid-Autumn Festival in the second year to recruit talented people to enter the court.
Although the imperial examination of Daliang is held once every three years, it is not fixed, and it is often canceled or increased for some reason.
Even Cui's received the news, it should be eight or nine points fixed, Cui Liang was eager to prove himself, and he often buried his head in hard reading during that time.
But for some reason, the harder he worked, the more unsatisfactory his results became, although he was still the second in Guozixue, the gap between him and Xie Yiming became bigger and bigger.
In contrast, Xie Yiming was very comfortable and relaxed, Cui Liang's mood was very bad during that time, even the elders of the Cui family heard about it and called him to reprimand, and it was from then on that he asked him to contact Xie Yiming's eldest brother Xie Yiyang.
He didn't know what he was going to do at first, and when he did, he couldn't look back.
Originally, they wanted to do something in the capital, but they didn't expect Xie Yiming to suddenly run back to Yangzhou and hide.
There was no way, under Cui Liang's persecution, he could only bring things and pretend to study in Yangzhou, and met Xie Yiming in a foreign country.
The medicine was given to him by Cui Liang and handed over to Xie Yiyang by him, he thought that Xie Yiming would at most fall off the horse and be injured and unable to participate in the imperial examination that year.
After all, his equestrian skills are also very good, but he didn't expect the medicine to be so fierce, the horse was crazy, and in order to be sure, they also put a slight drug in Xie Yiming's diet.
The drug was not in his hands, but only when Uncle Cui asked someone to wipe the traces, Cui Liang mentioned it.
From the beginning, he wanted to thank Yiming for his death.
Xie Yiming is indeed dead, but now that Xie Yiyang is exiled and Cui Liang is also dead, although these three things are not directly related, Wuyang always feels that something is wrong, he just feels that there is a connection.
Half-asleep and half-awake, Wuyang woke up after being pushed, He Xiu yawned and said, "It's dawn, let's pack up and get ready to enter the city." β
Everyone was very tired, most of them only squinted and did not fall asleep, even if it had been a night, everyone still had an unreal feeling when they looked at Cui Liang lying on the bed.
Why did he die?
"How did you die?" Cui Ling, who had just received the news, also jumped up in shock.
The Cui family guards who were brought over by the Lin family cried so much that they cried with snot and tears, "It's a falling horse, yesterday the young master went to hunt deer and accidentally fell from the horse, people, people were not very good at that time." β
Cui Ling's mind flashed in an instant the sentence that Lin Qingwan asked him yesterday, "When it comes to the resentment of life and death, can you Cui clan let it go?" β
Cui Lingqing asked with a blushing face, "When was it yesterday?" β
"Around the hour of the unitary, we had already set up camp and lit a fire, but the sons saw a deer, so they got on their horses and went hunting, but who knew that such an accident had happened."
Cui Ling asked with a calm face, "Why did the descendants of the Lin family bring you here?" β
"It was dark last night, and the young master was really embarrassed, so I had to borrow the Lin family's place to build a white shed to clean up, fortunately, the lord of Lin County was benevolent and didn't mind, but helped a lot."
Cui Ling pursed his lips and said nothing, and walked out quickly, "Let's go, go to the Lin family's courtyard." β
When Cui Ling arrived at the Lin family's courtyard, the white shed had not yet begun to be cleaned up, after all, the chief guard was just a subordinate, and Wuyang and they were outsiders, and there was no one in charge, so they had to wait for Cui Ling to come.
Cui Ling went to see Cui Liang first, sad and angry in his heart, and with some doubts, this is Lin Qingwan's hand?
He took a deep breath and said to the chief of the guard with a blushing face: "I don't have a separate place to live in the city, so I will ask someone to buy a house, so you don't touch him first." β
sent someone to buy a house, and asked someone to prepare a coffin, and then turned around and went to the Lin family's courtyard to ask to see Lin Qingwan.
Mrs. Yang was still sleeping, Lin Yubin was also sleeping, but Lin Qingwan, who hadn't slept all night, got up early, and waited in the study for Yi Han, who rushed back early in the morning, and only after the two finished talking did they hear that Cui Ling had arrived.
"It's coming fast." Lin Qingwan got up with a smile and said to Yi Han: "You go down first, I'll go see him." β
"Grandma, we have done this very cleanly, you can fool the things we said before."
Lin Qingwan shook her head and said, "Cui Ling is very smart, he will definitely investigate it if he suspects it in his heart, and it will inevitably alarm Cui Jie at that time." Do you think Cui Jie will tell us about the evidence? β
Cui Jie is Cui Liang's father, and he has always loved Cui Liang and regarded him as his pride.
"That aunt ......"
"You don't want me to make enemies, then the person you want to hide is just a Cui Jie, well, maybe there is another Cui Zheng."
"Do you think Cui Ling won't tell Cui Jie? They are of the same kind. β
Lin Qingwan smiled lightly: "I don't like the Cui family very much, but it is undeniable that Cui Ling is very good, maybe he is willing not to tell Cui Jie." β
Anyway, she had already prepared for the worst when she made the move, and Cui Jie knew that everyone had torn off their faces, gongs to gongs, and drums to drums.
Cui Jie didn't know that Cui Liang was dead, and the grievances between the two families would be eliminated.
