Chapter 361: The Truth of the Matter
That night, Lu Jiuyuan did not return home, but only asked Wu Ze to go back to the house to explain the truth of the matter to Tao Yao.
Although he only assisted the prince, the prince led troops to suppress the rebellion for the first time, and there was no room for error.
Not only did he have to personally count the soldiers and horses in the army, but he also had to familiarize the prince with military affairs and formulate a plan for purging out.
After Tao Yao found out, he told Wu Zedao: "Protect the prince of the country and don't let him get hurt." ”
"Madame, rest assured, the master has been through a hundred battles and is only rebellious, and he can't hurt him, of course, his subordinates will also do their best to protect the master." Uze said immediately.
Tao Yao nodded, "You should also pay attention to safety." ”
"Thank you, ma'am." Uze arched his hand.
Following.
Old Mrs. Lu came to Tao Yao's yard and when she was talking to her, she saw that Lu Jiuyuan was not there, so she asked, "What has Old Jiuyuan been busy with lately?" I haven't seen him in days. ”
Tao Yao knew that Lu Jiuyuan should have accompanied the prince to the town to clean up the rebellion at this time.
And this matter was a secret operation, so she didn't tell the old lady, but said: "The husband should be busy with the affairs of the army, and I don't know the specifics." ”
The old lady nodded, and didn't ask any more, but when she saw the Wuyi people coming out of the house, she was stunned and asked in surprise, "This girl is ......?"
"Mother, her name is Yiren, she is a good friend of mine, she has been in trouble lately, so I let her stay with me for a while." Tao Yao explained.
When the old lady heard this, she looked Wu Yiren up and down, "Why does this girl look a little familiar to me?" ”
Without waiting for Tao Yao to say anything, Wu Yiren had already stepped forward to greet the old man.
She couldn't speak, and only performed a junior salute.
The old lady noticed the abnormality and couldn't help but ask Tao Yao, "What's the trouble with her?" ”
Tao Yao paused, and saw that she had already seen Wu Yiren, so she didn't hide it anymore, "She is Pingxihou's wife, her voice has been poisoned and dumb, and now she can't speak." ”
The old lady was taken aback, "Poisoned and dumb?" ”
"Hmm." Tao Yao nodded.
The Wuyi stood crampedly.
The old lady came back to her senses and immediately looked at her distressedly, "Sit down, don't stand." ”
"Yiren, don't be afraid, my old lady is very kind, sit down." Tao Yao took the hand of the Wuyi people.
Wu Yi sat down next to the two of them.
The old lady looked at her gaze, she had more pity, she was young, and she was born so beautiful, but she didn't expect to lose her voice, what should I do in the future?
"Who is so vicious as to do such a hurtful thing?" The old lady said indignantly.
Tao Yao shook his head, "I don't know yet, but I've already sent someone to investigate." ”
The old lady had seen the world, and when she heard her say this, she knew that Wu Yiren couldn't speak, and she couldn't write, and she suddenly felt sorry for her, "What a hard-working child." ”
Tao Yao shook Wu Yiren's hand and was silently relieved.
Wu Yiren has adjusted his mood in the past few days, and he has seen what happened to him, so he can face it calmly when others mention it again.
The old lady was afraid that she would be uncomfortable, so she didn't talk about her anymore, but asked about Tao Yao's body.
By noon, the old lady stayed and went back after eating.
Since Tao Yao was pregnant, she was used to taking a nap at noon, so she sent the old lady away, and she talked to Wu Yiren for a while, and then went to rest.
A few days later, the subordinate who was sent to Pei's house to inquire about the situation came back.
"How's it going, do you hear anything?" Xi'er took her to Tao Yao and asked.
The man smiled and nodded, "The slaves and maids have all inquired, but the people of the Pei family are very strict-mouthed, and the slaves and maids have been watching near the Pei family for several days in order to get the news out of their mouths."
Finally, I heard from the mother-in-law who bought it.
That mother-in-law is a confidant next to Mrs. Pei, but she is greedy for money and good at drinking, and after the slave and maid stuffed the money a few times and invited her to drink a few times, she confided in them all. ”
When Tao Yao heard this, he smiled and said, "I've worked hard for you this time, and I'll go to get the reward money with me in a while." ”
"Thank you, ma'am." Then the next person was overjoyed.
"Okay, tell me all about what you asked." Dong'er urged.
The next person glanced at the Wuyi people sitting on the side, and then began to talk about the Pei family.
It turned out that half a year ago, Wu Yiren couldn't bear the cynicism and deliberate difficulties of his mother-in-law, so he wanted to reconcile with Pingxi Hou.
But Pingxihou did not agree.
Even in order to make the Wuyi people die, Pingxihou also invited himself to the northwest.
Pingxihou was not in Beijing, and the Wuyi people had no choice but to reconcile even if they wanted to, but they stopped, thinking about waiting for Pingxihou to come back and then reconcile.
But Mrs. Pei didn't think so, she resented that the Wuyi people couldn't give birth, but they occupied Pingxihou, and made Pingxihou die for her, and she didn't even want to accept a concubine.
So after Pingxihou went to the northwest, Mrs. Pei had the idea of getting rid of the Wuyi people.
She had the Wu Yi people drink poisonous wine, with the intention of making her unable to open her mouth and then expelling her from Pei's mansion.
But he didn't expect the amount of poison to be too large, and after the Wuyi people drank it, they died of pain and rolled on the ground, and finally there was only one breath left.
The old lady Pei was afraid that she would die in Pei's mansion, and she would be discovered by Pingxihou in the future, so she took her out of Pei's mansion and threw her to a mass grave while she was still angry.
When Pingxihou came back in the future, if she asked about Wuyiren, she said that she couldn't bear the loneliness and ran away with the wild man......
"It's so vicious!" When Xi'er and Dong'er heard this, they couldn't help but curse loudly.
Tao Yao looked at Wu Yiren and saw that she did not interrupt the next person's speech, so he knew that what the next person said was the truth.
She clenched the hand of the Wu Yiren, Mrs. Pei was really vicious.
However, what puzzled her was that according to her subordinates' words, Mrs. Pei originally wanted to throw the Wuyi people to the mass grave, but later the Wuyi people appeared in the back alley of Yipinlou.
But what happened?
She asked the question in her heart.
The servant shook his head, "This slave doesn't know, that's what the woman said, and between the words, the woman is sure that the girl is dead." ”
When Tao Yao heard this, he vaguely guessed something.
She looked at Wu Yidao: "The Pei family who was responsible for throwing you to the mass grave, has he received your favor?" Or did that person not want to be responsible, afraid that Pingxi Hou would find out about this matter in the future and ask him for blame, so he changed his mind halfway and threw you into the back alley of Yipinlou? ”
The Wuyi shook his head blankly, clearly unaware of the matter.
Seeing this, Tao Yao guessed that she should have been in a coma after being poisoned, so she didn't know everything that followed.
"It's okay, the medicine that Mrs. Guo prescribed to you, you must insist on drinking it every day, maybe after half a month, your throat can really recover, and when the time comes, Mrs. Pei will harm you, you can go to the official and identify her personally."
