Chapter 7: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes
At night, thinking of the assassination he received during the day, Tang Siru couldn't sleep over and over.
She knows how dangerous it is this time, but she encountered this kind of thing just after leaving the capital, and she can understand how rampant the command behind this scene is, I am afraid that the closer they get to Lizhou, the more dangerous their group will be.
I didn't sleep well all night, and as soon as it was dawn the next day, Tang Siru pushed open the door, and the cold on his face made the only trace of sleepiness dissipate.
"Second Miss got up so early?" Fu Yao stood at the door of his house from a distance, and when he saw Tang Siru stretching his waist and having no image at all, he couldn't help but remind.
Tang Siru didn't expect Fu Yao to be around here, and he didn't expect Fu Yao to open the door so early in the morning, so he hurriedly put his hand down, and smiled reservedly: "Master Fu also got up early." ”
"On weekdays, Zaochao is used to waking up early...... But it seems that the second lady didn't sleep well? Before Fu Yao got closer, he could see Tang Siru with two big dark circles under his eyes.
Tang Siru's face stiffened, and then returned to normal: "Maybe I wasn't familiar with the environment, so I didn't sleep well." ”
"The second miss has to get used to it, and this time I won't give the second lady time to get used to." Fu Yao smiled faintly, and didn't debunk Tang Siru's thoughts.
Tang Siru just wanted to refute it, but as soon as he raised his eyes, he saw Hanmu hurriedly coming from a distance.
"Did the man confess?" Tang Siru saw Han Mu leaning in Fu Yao's ear and whispered a few words, and he knew what was going on without thinking about it.
Fu Yao nodded, and Tang Siru said without hesitation: "I'll go with you." ”
After all, Tang Siru was also a victim of this matter, Fu Yao thought about it and finally took Tang Siru with him.
When the three of them came to a house that had been uninhabited for many years, they could faintly smell a hint of blood.
It seems that the punishment is not light. Tang Siru glanced at Fu Yao quietly, and then walked in.
The man had been beaten and his flesh was blurred, and he was dying with a rope tied to a stake, and his hands were hanging, except for the face that was intact, there was not a good place on his body.
Fu Yao thoughtfully asked someone to bring a stool for Tang Siru, but he approached the assassin's side.
"I heard that you keep saying that the queen sent you to do this?" Fu Yao glanced at the assassin's wound lightly, but he was unmoved.
Tang Siru endured his nausea and sat down, he really didn't understand why he was willing to confess after beating people into such a picture.
"In the early years, the queen sent us people to ambush everywhere to collect information for her, and I was the only one in Fengyue Villa who managed to stay, and the ordinary task would not be my turn, and I was used this time as a last resort." The assassin was obviously out of breath for a long time, and he gasped for a long time with such a simple few words.
Fu Yao nodded, Han Mu had already told him about this: "The queen asked you to assassinate the left minister, aren't you worried that after the defeat, even if you escape, the queen will kill you?" ”
The assassin obviously knew this, and was shocked when he heard Fu Yao's words, but closed his eyes without saying anything.
"I heard that you have already married a wife in Fengyue Villa, what's the matter, it is not easy to be an assassin, do you want to completely penetrate the interior of Fengyue Villa?" Fu Yao was not in a hurry, and looked at a small plum blossom on the assassin's cuffs and smiled.
Just when Tang Siru thought that Fu Yao couldn't ask anything, the assassin suddenly spoke: "I am the only one in the entire Fengyue Villa, I can tell you anything you want to know, please let my family go." ”
Tang Siru still couldn't hold back after all, and what he wanted to say several times still came out: "Master Fu, since you ...... now"
Fu Yao turned his head to look at Tang Siru, obviously understanding what Tang Siru wanted to say.
Tang Siru originally planned not to get involved in anything along the way, but he didn't expect to break the success on the first day.
After the two came out of the house, Fu Yao first spoke: "I will let Hanmu let him go, if he can live, let him and his family stay incognito from now on, if he can't live, it is also his life." ”
That's a rare thing to do.
Tang Siru understood the key, so he had no choice but to sigh.
"Brother Fu, why didn't you run out of the house early in the morning?"
As soon as Tang Siru heard the words "Brother Fu", goosebumps immediately popped up all over his body, and he hurriedly left Fu Yao's side.
Shen Anan was very satisfied with Tang Siru's interest, and directly gave Tang Siru a look, and stuck Fu Yao on the other side.
"An An, what do you look like like this!" Shen Yunfeng frowned and reprimanded Shen An'an, he really didn't understand why Shen An'an was like having lost his soul when he saw Fu Yao, which was both rude and reckless.
Fu Yao quietly broke free from Shen An'an's entanglement, and said to Shen Yunfeng: "Since we have found the assassin, it is inconvenient for us to stay any longer, so we will leave in the afternoon." ”
Shen Yunfeng already knew the purpose of Fu Yao's trip, and he regretted that he couldn't get along with Fu Yao for a few more days, but the emperor's order could not be violated, so he had to send the group away.
"Even so, I won't keep Brother Fu, this trip is difficult, Brother Fu himself has paid more attention." Shen Yunfeng was glad that Shen Anan could no longer stick to Fu Yao, and on the other hand, he regretted that he had only been with Fu Yao for a few days.
Tang Siru already knew that they stayed in Fengyue Villa just to find out this assassin, and the so-called injuries of the guards were just a pretense, and now that the matter had been done, they naturally couldn't delay.
Shen Anan didn't expect that he and Fu Yao would only get along for a short day, and he wished that Fu Yao could stay in Fengyue Villa to accompany her for a long time: "Cousin, why don't I go to Lizhou with Brother Fu and them?" I haven't been far yet! ”
Shen Yunfeng's face immediately became ugly: "What nonsense are you talking about when a girl opens her mouth and closes her mouth!" Don't go back yet! ”
Shen Anan didn't expect Shen Yunfeng, who had always been warm-tempered, to say this about her, tears immediately flowed, covered his face and ran away.
"Let Brother Fu laugh, it's really not good at teaching at home."
Shen Yunfeng felt a little embarrassed, I'm afraid no one will feel proud of this cousin, right?
Tang Siru looked at Shen An'an's back very happily.
Everyone cleaned up a little, had a simple lunch and left from Fengyue Villa.
Tang Siru lifted the curtain and looked at Shen Yunfeng's figure standing alone at the door of Fengyue Villa, very glad that he didn't have to see Shen An'an's nasty face at the last moment.
"Could it be that the second lady is reluctant to Fengyue Villa? It's a pity that Fengyue Villa not only doesn't like people in the court, but even in-laws will not choose people in the court. ”
Fu Yao saw that Tang Siru seemed to be reluctant to give up, and couldn't help but kindly remind.
