Chapter 55: Buried in the Cave
Ye Qianmo hurriedly helped Wu Zui up, with a serious face, "Lord Wu, please get up quickly, this is my duty to come to Yizhou, I will definitely investigate this matter,"
"But," Wu Zui looked embarrassed, "My lord also knows, this whole Yizhou said that my child killed the young lady of the Zhan Tai family, and there is no proof of death, it is so easy to find out there, besides, there is Zhan Tai Yeer watching from the side, if he hadn't persecuted him again and again, he bullied people too much, how could the lower officials be in a panic and fall into the fold of rebellion." ”
"Oh, what does Lord Wu mean by that?"
"My lord, since my family had a relationship with his sister, he has warned him, and even more, he once sent someone to arrest Xiao'er, and Xiao'er is not alone, everyone who has dealings with Zhan Tai Lanyan has had a few accidents to a greater or lesser extent, although it is not fatal, but it is also not lightly injured."
There was a slight cool breeze blowing, the lights and shadows in the house were swaying, Ye Qianmo put down the pen in his hand and sighed. Get up and open the doors and windows. The rain had stopped, the sky was dotted with stars, and their shadows were clearly reflected in the accumulated waters on the ground.
Ye Qianmo couldn't resist Wu Garrison's enthusiasm, and she didn't want to see superfluous people, so she simply lived in this garrison mansion.
With a "creak" sound, Green Willow pushed the door in, and with a plate of snacks that looked freshly baked, he handed her one with a smile, "Miss, eat one, I just made it, it tastes the same as at home." ”
Ye Qianmo smiled, took one and put it in her mouth, and tasted it carefully, "I didn't expect to be a little homesick just a few days after I came out,"
Seeing that she was eating happily, Green Willow pursed her lips and smiled, put the rest on the table, and said with a smile: "Also, I'm afraid that the little fox at home has long been impatient." ”
"That's right, you should have brought her when you came, and she must have run away with joy." Ye Qianmo thought of the interesting story of Xiaohuo'er at home, and her mouth turned up slightly, "I don't know if Xiaoba can control her." ”
Lu Liu picked up the paper on the table with Ye Qianmo writing the progress of the case and looked at it for a while, "Miss, when we came, the emperor asked you to quell the rebellion, since it didn't happen here, even if you go back, the emperor has nothing to say, why bother with it......"
Ye Qianmo shook her head, "Lu Liu, you think about the emperor's heart too simply, if we go back like this without doing anything, Murong Ming will definitely use this as an excuse to find my fault." After all, there has been a rebellion, even if it is calm now, but the root cause has not been solved, if we just left on the front foot, Yizhou will fight again......"
Lu Liu frowned and nodded, this emperor sincerely doesn't want Miss Ansheng.
"And I want to know the truth about it, don't you think it's funny?" Ye Qianmo smiled and comforted her, "Don't think about it, I have already sent a letter to my grandfather and father to tell them about the situation here, and also reassure them, and don't let them send more people." ”
"That young lady also goes to bed early, this matter can't be solved in a moment, and I will continue to investigate tomorrow,"
"Green Willow, don't go back, sleep with me, Hongying and Qingyao are asleep now, and it's not comfortable for the three of them to huddle together."
Lu Liu didn't shirk either, smiled and went to spread the quilt, and quipped: "Others say that there are 100,000 snowflakes of silver in the Qing Governor's Mansion in three years, but this Wu Shoubei can't even pick up a few guest rooms, and he is not comfortable to live in an inn." ”
Ye Qianmo also smiled and extinguished the light, and the two of them lay down and fell asleep without saying a few words. In the middle of the night, Ye Qianmo suddenly opened her eyes, there was no trace of sleepiness in the dark, she listened carefully for a while, and looked at the green willow sleeping next to her.
Luliu was sleeping soundly, and was suddenly woken up by Ye Qianmo, opened her eyes in a daze, and saw that Ye Qianmo had already dressed and sat on the edge of the bed, and when she opened her eyes, she made a silent gesture, Luliu nodded and did not speak.
After a while, I saw that the quiet room suddenly remembered the sound of rustling, and a slender small pipe pierced the window paper and stretched in, and in a moment a wisp of white smoke drifted in.
It turned out to be a misty fragrance, Lu Liu's eyes widened, and she just wanted to act, but she was pulled by Ye Qianmo, shook her head at her, sneered, took out a small porcelain bottle from her arms, poured out two pills, ate one for herself, gave her one, and said in a low voice: "Eat it, this is the antidote given by Qing Yao, don't make a sound, we will all pretend to faint for a while, I want to see who they are and what they are going to do!" ”
"Could it be Lord Wu?"
"No, he won't be stupid enough to be like this, if I am robbed of his garrison, it will be too late for him to cry."
Lu Liu nodded, lay back on the bed like Ye Qianmo, pretending to be unconscious, and after a while, he only heard the door creak and was pushed open, and then the sound of soft footsteps sounded, and he glanced at the two people lying on the bed, although it was strange that the two of them were in good clothes, but they didn't have time to think, and they also lowered their voices and said to the people who were still behind the door: "Monkey, it's done, they have all fallen asleep." ”
"Monkey, are you going to take the people from the next room with you?" A little brother walked over lightly and asked the man who was called the monkey.
"Didn't the boss say, just take the women in this house away." The monkey slapped him in the head.
"Yes...... But, monkey, there are two women here, which one is the boss wants?"
The monkey was stunned, the boss didn't say anything when he came, he walked over and took a look, there were two people on the bed, and they were both beautiful, this ...... No matter, "Take both of them away, anyway, there is one person here who is the boss." “
When the other two heard this, they each went to fight against Ye Qianmo and Lu Liu, who were pretending to be unconscious, and left the garrison mansion, and several people didn't see it, and there was a piece of paper and a small bottle in the place where Ye Qianmo left.
As soon as a few people left the garrison mansion, Ye Qianmo's room lit up, Jian Ying and Jian Xiong looked around, saw something on the bed, opened it and took a look, the two glanced at each other, pulled off the cork and smelled it, and walked towards the room where Qing Yao slept.
Before it was their turn to knock on the door, the door was opened from the inside, and Qing Yao was not surprised to see them, "I'm also a thief here, No," she pointed inward, "Hongying is ecstatic, but even if she is not ecstasy, she will not wake up." ”
Jian Xiong handed her the bottle in his hand, "What is this?" ”
She took it and sniffed it, "The tracking scatter I gave my sister is good, it's colorless and odorless, no one can find it......" The more she spoke, the more excited she became, her dark eyes rolled around her bones, and she was cunning and cute, but the other two were not interested in admiring it.
The sword shadow interrupted her gushing, "How do you use it?" ”
"With this," she pursed her lips and whistled after her, a feathered, skinny bird flew into her outstretched hand, "but it can smell it, and it likes to eat it." ”
"Let it lead the way, Miss...... Green Willow was taken away by those men. As soon as Jian Ying heard her say this, he immediately pulled her and ran, and Jian Xiong naturally followed.
At this time, the three people didn't know that they had been taught by others, and they were still talking and laughing on their horses. Maybe they were too relieved of themselves, they didn't tie up Ye Qianmo and Luliu, but just put them in the carriage.
"Monkey, what did you say the boss was doing with this woman, and besides, I heard that she was sent by the imperial court, if one is not good, we will be unlucky." One said.
The monkey glared at him, "You know a fart, this is a good thing, you don't know it, the boss has taken a fancy to other women since that incident, and now it's okay, the boss has opened his mind, and he has fallen in love with this lady from the capital, but, tsk, ......, this woman is really good-looking." ”
Another person also answered: "The woman from the capital is different, looking at the face of the watery, more beautiful than the girl from the Zhan Tai family who often comes to our village." ”
"Shut up, don't blame me for the monkey didn't remind you, you can't say this in front of the boss,"
The person who said this hurriedly smiled flatteringly, "Who doesn't know that Zhan Tai Lanyan is a scar in the boss's heart, who dares to stab the hornet's nest without his life!" ”
Unbeknownst to the three of them, their conversations all fell into the ears of the unconscious two people in the carriage. Ye Qianmo smiled when she heard this, and glanced at Lu Liu, this is really a nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.
However, Green Willow was still a little worried, "Miss, it looks like they are going to take us to the village, and there will be more people ...... then."
"It's okay," Ye Qianmo smiled and took out something like the bottle she threw on the bed, "And thanks to this thing, I put a bottle for Sword Shadow and them, and they will follow." ”
Ye Qianmo guessed well, and several people were not far from the carriage at this time, following closely.
The sky was slightly bright, and Ye Qianmo was taken to the place. As when they came, the two of them once again experienced a human flesh shake car. The village seems to be built on a mountain, and the three of them have walked for a long time, which can make Ye Qianmo and Green Willow who were carried on their shoulders hard, making them dizzy and cramping in their stomachs. When she stopped, Ye Qianmo really wanted to open her eyes like this and beat them up, she was motion sick!
"Boss, people have brought it," the monkey didn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, hey, no culture, it's terrible. Put Ye Qianmo on the shoulder and slam it on the ground.
Ye Qianmo reacted quickly, and moved his body imperceptibly, avoiding facing the ground, but he didn't fall lightly. However, Green Willow was not so lucky, because he was very close to the boss in their mouths, he didn't dare to make the slightest movement, so he was thrown down alive.
The good-natured Midori Willow decided that he must beat this man into a pig's head for a while, and then throw him down the mountain.
"Well, splash them up with water."
Ye Qianmo knew why the three of them acted rudely, because they had a more inauthentic boss. She was depressed, and she should have woken up early if she had been woken up as soon as she came. Stretching, Ye Qianmo stood up leisurely from the ground, "Your hospitality is not very good!" He grabbed the monkey who was about to walk away and punched him hard.
Green Willow, like her movements, turned thoughts into actions, and beat another person into a pig's face. The movements of the two men were completed almost instantly, and by the time the cave was crowded with people with weapons, the monkeys had been roaring for a while.
"You all stand down," the man who was the boss in the monkey's mouth waved back the person who came, looked at Ye Qianmo and bent down and said, "In Xia Jianshui, please forgive me for inviting the two of you over in this way." ”
Ye Qianmo looked at Jian Shui and was slightly stunned, this person is not like a cottage leader, walking on the road will be regarded as a scholar nine times out of ten. Thin and tall, even dressed like a scholar, smiled, "If you say that you are a scholar who is rushing for the exam, I will definitely believe it." ”
Jian Shui smiled, "The county lord smiled, please sit down," he took a sip of tea slowly, "The county lord also tastes it, I sent my subordinates to pick it on the top of the mountain, and she likes it too." ”
"Jian Shui's news is very well-informed, even my identity is known, I guess Zhan Taiye still doesn't know," Ye Qianmo glanced at him with a smile.
Jian Shui didn't panic when he heard what she said, and said with a smile: "The garrison has my people, I know that you are not making the slightest progress now, but I can tell you who killed Yan'er," he paused, "It's for myself"
Ye Qianmo saw him say Zhan Tai Lanyan's doting tone, and thought of what the monkey said on the road, but guessed, "You are lovers." ”
"Lovers? It's a novel way of saying," he smiled, his eyes wistful, "we're lovers." ”
"You also know about her and Wu Gang, don't you mind? I only knew that there are men in this world who can be so generous. I don't know if what Ye Qianmo said was sarcasm or just praise for him.
Jian Shui didn't seem to hear what she said, and said after a while: "Actually, Yan'er has never had a relationship with Wu Gang, and she has always used him,"
Ye Qianmo thought of modern hallucinogens, which could probably achieve the effect he said, tsk, this ancient wisdom is really not covered. However, "What are you using him for?" ”
He did not answer directly, but told him the story. But listening to Ye Qianmo's ears tastes like chewing wax, and it is another story of a 'talented and beautiful woman'. Zhan Tai Lanyan, who went up to the mountain to play, got lost and was fortunately rescued by him, and the two fell in love at first sight, but the brother at home did not agree.
Jian Shui also seemed to feel Ye Qianmo's disapproval, but he was not annoyed, and smiled slightly, "Isn't the county lord wondering why Yan'er has to stop Zhan Taiyeer no matter what man he is looking for?" Even if you are not at ease as an elder brother, it is impossible to reject all men completely. “
"What does Jian Shui think?" Ye Qianmo followed his words and asked what he wanted to ask.
"That's why Yan'er came to Wu Gang," he paused for a moment, as if it was not easy to speak the next sentence, "in order to avoid Zhan Taiyer, because he fell in love with ...... Yan'er, her own sister. ”
Green Willow's eyes widened, and he looked at Jian Shui, who was still smiling in disbelief, this is ...... Disorderly...... Lun, but why did his lover still smile when such a thing happened?
Although Ye Qianmo was also a little shocked, she returned to normal in a moment.
She has always believed that in such a thing, unrelated people have no right or position to judge the right and wrong of the protagonist, just like a man and a man fall in love, like a fish drinking water, and know whether they are warm or cold.
"The county lord looks calm, don't you think it's ...... Is it dirty? Even though he said the word 'dirty,' he smiled gently, as before.
"Dirty?" Ye Qianmo looked at the tumbling tea leaves in the tea Gu and smiled, "I didn't have a position on this matter, so I won't judge the matter between them, they are like ...... in front of my eyes" He glanced at it and said, "You." ”
Hearing her words, he laughed even more. He understood the meaning of the woman's words. If it weren't for the fact that this matter was implicated in the Yizhou rebellion, these people would never appear in front of them, they are strangers, they don't know each other, even if you are unreasonable, what does it matter to her?
He didn't know whether to say that this woman was indifferent, or whether he should be glad that there were still people who could be so calm after hearing this, and there was no trace of disdain in his eyes. He silently whispered in his heart: Yan'er, you see, there are still people who will not despise you.
"Okay, seeing who said so much, the county lord already knows what you want to say, but I won't believe you like this, just like I said to the other two, everything needs evidence, how can Jian Shui prove that Zhan Taiye killed her."
He seemed to have been waiting for her to say this, and when he heard this, he took out a piece of brocade from his arms, "This is something that someone sent me on the night of her accident, but the little girl who delivered the letter died before she came to the mountain,"
"How did you die?"
"Poison died, poison, it was in her body seven years ago, if you don't get the antidote regularly, you will die."
"Green Willow, you go out and talk to the sword shadow first, I'll go over in a while,"
The green willow should have come out of the cave. Jian Shui looked at her disappearing figure and said with a smile: "This matter stimulates her a lot. ”
"It's normal that not everyone is like me, she can't stand it," Ye Qianmo took it and opened it, it was actually a blood book, read it carefully, she raised her head, stopped for a long time, her eyes were very complicated, "Mourn, take care ......"
Before they finished speaking, both of them were stunned, and shock appeared in their eyes.
The cave was shaking, and the rocks were falling down, and the "boom" sound was non-stop.
Jian Shui grabbed Ye Qianmo's hand and ran towards the exit, "Someone blew up the hole," the two glanced at each other, and both conveyed a message, "Zhan Taiyer." ”
"Hurry up, it's almost there," I don't know who was shouting, there was a boom in her ears, and suddenly a stone fell from the top of Ye Qianmo's head, and she gradually lost consciousness in front of her.
The green willow who had just come out of the cave moved, and suddenly heard the sound of collapse, and hurriedly looked back, the place where she was standing just now had become a ruin, and immediately ran to that place, Miss, don't have an accident!
The sword shadow and the others who were guarding outside the mountain also froze when they saw this situation, and several figures flew towards the ruins like lightning, squatting there like green willows digging the exit with their fingers, no one spoke, not even the stones that were still falling.
Hearing the news, Wu Zui, who hurried over, looked at the people who were digging stones, his eyes were straight, if something unexpected happened to ......the county lord here, "Oh, my ancestor, hurry up, why are you still stunned, go dig it, the county lord is still inside!" He hurriedly commanded the people to come forward, climbed up himself, and began to dig with his hands.
"Lord Wu," suddenly a cold voice rang in his ears, Tai raised his head to see that Jian Xiong's face was frighteningly cold, and his eyes were full of slaughter, "I also bothered Lord Wu to help investigate who blew up the mountain," he clenched his fists very hatefully, and hit the stones that were flying towards Wu Zui, and the flying stones immediately turned into pieces, "Bring him here!" ”
Wu Zui looked at the shadow that continued to dig the stone, and only wiped the cold sweat on his body after half a sound, and said tremblingly, "Thank you...... Xie, the lower official will go immediately, go immediately. ”
