Chapter 157: Caught

If it weren't for Meng Qingyi looking for her tonight, Yueya would also think that she was an excellent person, and someone who could say such things indiscriminately to Xiao Jingshen, her character might have to be re-examined.

Misfortune comes from the mouth, this is an eternal truth.

Putting down the medicine bowl, Yueya was about to wash and rest, but as soon as she washed her face, she heard hurried footsteps outside the door, and then the housekeeper ran over, a little out of shape.

"Something happened to Miss, someone died at the gate of our house."

Yueya frowned, took the handkerchief handed by Chun'er, wiped her hand, and motioned to Chun'er to let the housekeeper in.

The housekeeper had never been so flustered, and he hurriedly ran in, not even caring about the etiquette he should have.

"Miss, someone died at the gate of our house, and there are still a few words left on the ground."

Yueya's eyes were cold, her heart was beating faster, and she suddenly pulled out her legs and walked outside, saying as she walked, "Who is the deceased?" ”

"I didn't see the face, but the shape was familiar."

"What bloody book was left behind?"

Yueya had a bad premonition in her heart, she died at the gate of the palace, and she kept a blood book, which pointed to a very clear point, it was a bureau specially set up for the palace family, or a bureau for herself.

The housekeeper wiped the cold sweat, "It was Gong Yueya who killed me." ”

Yueya's eyes tightened, it was really aimed at her, she couldn't care about anything anymore, and quickened her pace, only to see a few people standing at the gate of the mansion and the little maids in her mansion.

"Miss, you're here."

Yueya didn't say anything and walked in, only to see that the deceased was lying on his side on the ground, with blood stains on his head, and a hairpin inserted in his heart, the hairpin was hers, but it was obvious that the hairpin was gone a long time ago.

Chun'er was also so frightened when she saw the hairpin that she covered her mouth.

"Butler, turn his head over."

As the housekeeper turned the man's head over, Yueya gasped, but he didn't expect it to be Xiaozhe, he looked like he had died of blood loss, and there were brain footprints on his chest.

"It's him, miss."

Yueya wanted to take the hairpin quietly, but it has been seen by many people, and if it is taken away now, then it is impossible to say if it jumps into the Yellow River.

Just thinking that the official was coming, he inquired about the situation and ordered Xiaozhe's body to be taken away on a stretcher, because it was an accident at the gate of the palace, and there was the name of Gong Yueya underground, and after the official asked who was Gong Yueya, he also took Yueya away.

As the official left, a figure walked out, the woman's figure was withered, the black veil covered half of her face, her eyes looked coldly at Yueya who was taken away, the corners of her mouth hooked a curvature, turned around and disappeared into the night.

"What to do? Fauber, Miss she ......"

Chun'er has never encountered this kind of thing, the whole person can't cry, and there is no owner in an instant.

It was Aunt Fu who reminded, "I'm afraid that only the prince can save it now, this Lord Xiong is not a good thing, the most habitual torture is a trick, even if the young lady doesn't do it, she won't be able to stand the torture and confess." ”

"Yes, my lord."

Tsubaki cried as she ran towards the night, unaware of the presence of a person behind her, and then she was stunned, and a sack was placed on top of her.

On the same day, the strong men sent out by Yueya to cooperate with the government to repair the ditch were stopped when they were approaching the disaster area, and more than a dozen beggars in tattered clothes ran towards them, panicking and saying: "Hurry up, the flood is coming, the whole village has been flooded, many officers and soldiers who repair the ditch have also died, and there are mudslides, don't go to death in vain!" ”

Everyone stopped walking as soon as they heard this, and in the dead of night, it was raining again, and there was a strange sound in the forest.

When the beggars saw that they did not move, they spoke again.

"It's important for us to run for our lives, otherwise we will definitely die, and it is better to wait for the opportunity to die in vain, and then go to repair the ditch."

When everyone heard this, they all felt reasonable, and they all retreated to the back.

Hidden behind the tree, Silver Heart smiled at the corners of his mouth and left.

Feng Xuche didn't know that something had happened to Yueya, and he had been writing a plan that night, preparing to take people to the disaster area tomorrow.

A secret guard flew down from the eaves of the night and landed straight into the courtyard.

"Master, there is something to report, something happened in the disaster area."

Feng Xuche put down the pen in his hand, then opened the door and walked out, "Didn't you let you follow those villagers to the disaster area?" Why are you here? ”

"Master, something happened, on the way, these victims met a group of beggars who fled, they said that the heavy rain in the disaster area was getting worse and worse, the whole village disappeared overnight, and there were mudslides, and the officers and soldiers were probably dead, so they were afraid that something would happen and they had already retreated."

Feng Xuche's eyes were cold, "Why haven't I heard that the disaster area is so serious?" It is so serious that all the officers and soldiers are dead, this is a big deal, and it is impossible not to reveal the wind. ”

"The prince should be in an accident with the officers and soldiers, so he can't pass the news over, and the road to the capital is covered by a mudslide, so the people inside can't come out to deliver the news at all."

"So be it! You rush to the disaster area overnight to find out the actual situation, don't go inside, you can know the situation inside outside the village, and then come back by tomorrow morning to report it. ”

"Okay, Lord Wang, if your subordinates don't arrive tomorrow morning, it means that something happened in the disaster area, and your subordinates won't come back to stay there to help."

"Hmmm! When the time comes, the king will bring reinforcements. ”

"Yes, my lord," the dark guard left, and hurried towards the disaster area.

Feng Xuche sat at the table, the candlelight flickered, his whole mind was restless, now the disaster is urgent, the treasury is urgent, if it is not solved as soon as possible, then Kyoto is in danger.

Taking the cloak, Feng Xuche walked out overnight.

Yueya was locked up in the county jail, the whole person shivered coldly, she curled up in the corner and thought about Xiaozhe's death, the more she thought about it, the more wrong it became.

Obviously, it looks like the hairpin was pierced to death due to excessive bleeding, but one thing is very strange, there are fine pinholes in Xiaozhe's neck.

Thinking of this, she stood up and said to the guards outside, "Come on, I want to see the prefect." ”

"The prefect is busy, and you will see you when you meet."

"I'm not guilty, I want to see the prefect."

"It doesn't matter if you're guilty or not, when you get here, you'll only be beaten into a trick, and you won't be able to get out again."

Yueya said in a deep voice: "Is there still a royal law here?" ”

"Wang Fa? Here Lao Tzu is the king's law. ”

The prefect walked in from outside, and then beckoned to the servant, "Take this palace lady out and lock her in the water prison, and the palace will personally interrogate her, and she will be sure to confess truthfully." ”

Yueya was pushed out by the officials, and when she saw the prefect, she immediately said: "My lord, the people's daughter is wronged, please make the decision for the people's daughter." ”

The prefect glanced at her mockingly, and then said: "Take it away, and when you are white, you can also turn it black, and there is nothing unjust when you enter here." ”

Yueya felt that it was over when she heard it, she had heard that this Lord Xiong was a greedy and lustful lord, who only recognized money and didn't say anything, and there were people behind him.
