Ruoqin came to the vicinity of the two deceased's homes and found that they were both residents of the southernmost part of Luoyang.

Most of the people here are in poor economic conditions.

She disguised herself as a mourning friend and infiltrated the deceased's home.

As soon as I entered, I found that there were two spiritual seats at a funeral, and when I looked closer, I found that the two people who died had the same surname.

One is called Zhang Tu and the other is Zhang Erkui.

The strange thing is that there is no one in the mourning hall to keep filial piety, and the people who come to mourn are chatting with themselves.

The woman who was covered in linen and filial piety was actually smiling happily.

"Oh, son, you have enjoyed the rest of your life, and you have received a lot of compensation this time, right?"

Speaking of this, Zhang Tu's wife smiled, "Oh, it's not much, it's not much, Lu Aniang, hurry up and find a good husband for me." ”

Ruoqin was angry, "You slut, your husband just died and wanted to marry someone else, shameless!" ”

Mrs. Zhang's smile disappeared and she looked at Ruoqin, "Who are you?" Do you care? Zhang Wu's poor clanging bell, if it weren't for the fact that he lived in Luoyang, the old lady wouldn't have married his lazy toad! ”

Lu Aniang saw at a glance that Ruoqin was a woman, "Who are you?" It won't be Zhang Wu's old looks, right? ”

"I'm just a friend of his, do you know how Zhang Wu died?"

"How did you die? Sick and dead..."

"The two brothers of the Zhang family were washed to death by washing the night and the rumors, who are you, girl?" Lu Aniang hurriedly interrupted Mrs. Zhang's speech.

Only then did Mrs. Zhang realize that the person in front of her had come to investigate the cause of death.

"After the incense, hurry up! Coquette... Bah! ”

Ruoqin turned her head to leave when she saw that the matter was revealed, and when she turned her face, a child bumped into his leg, she hurriedly helped the child up, and when she saw the child's appearance, he was so frightened that he took a few steps back.

The little boy in front of him was covered in white dander, and his face was covered in scratches and bleeding, and the rest of the place was all black.

"You dead boy! Come here! Mrs. Zhang reprimanded.

Ruoqin hurriedly walked out of the door and vaguely heard Mrs. Zhang's voice scolding the child inside.

Although she didn't know how to heal, the child just now was enough to prove that the disease would be passed on to the child, indicating that they were not washed to death by washing the night rumors.

She asked around before she learned that the two brothers Zhang Wu worked in cloth on weekdays and never showed their true faces, and the two went to the mountains to chop firewood every morning, and there were not many people who came back in the evening.

It is also said that the two brothers married a daughter-in-law because they were poor.

With such a serious skin disease, Ruoqin's first thought was that they should buy medicine often.

She came to the pharmacy on the street and asked.

Finally, in a remote pharmacy, I heard the news that the Zhang Wu brothers often came to buy medicine.

The shopkeeper said, "It's true that someone has come here to buy medicine and wrapped it tightly." ”

"And what kind of medicine did they buy?"

"Those who cure wind and evil, and those who wipe their bodies, he said that he has skin on his body, so I opened a shop for him to moisturize Angelica Angelica or something..."

Ruoqin took out the silver, "Can you sell me the account book?" ”

"Of course not! I still have to keep an account of this! ”

Ruoqin took out a small bag of silver and slapped it on the table, and the shopkeeper weighed it and nodded.

Hand the ledger directly to her.

Ruoqin was looking for Zhang Wu's name inside.

"Why don't you have his name here?"

The shopkeeper replied casually, "Maybe I forgot to remember." ”

Ruoqin looked through the dates inside, all of them were last year's ledgers, and instantly realized that she had been deceived.

"You're boring like this, shopkeeper, aren't you? I want your account book for this year, and it's from the two Zhang Wu brothers! ”

The shopkeeper pretended to be suddenly enlightened, "Oh, this is the one." ”

Ruoqin just wanted to take it but was held down by the shopkeeper, "This is thirty taels of silver." ”

"You! Why do you sit on the ground and start the price! ”

"Love to buy or not, hehe."

Ruoqin had no choice but to take out the money and hand it to him again.

She took the ledger and looked through it carefully, and suddenly he noticed that the shopkeeper and his fellow were secretly laughing.

Ruoqin knew that she had been fooled again, so she took the account book and walked out.

"It's a fool to have a lot of money, and the last time it wasn't enough, alas."

The guy complimented: "The wisdom of the shopkeeper, what is the origin of this Zhang Wu, last time that person spent a thousand taels for you to destroy Zhang Wu's record of catching medicine on the spot!" ”

"What's the matter, it's a sick ghost, he can't live long at all, it's okay if the weather is a little cooler, it's too hot recently, won't he die if he relapses?"

The guy summed it up, "This is being used as a game." ”

The shopkeeper weighed the money bag, "I don't know which rich family to harm." ”

Ruoqin always felt that someone was following her on her way home, and she was very close wherever she went.

She deliberately walked around the bazaar, and after a while, shook off the crowd.

Just as she was about to go home, someone else took her away at the door.

In the evening, Xiaoqing returned home alone in a loss of heart, and today he waited at the gate of the palace for a day in exchange for only the news that she had to wait.

Fei Ran said that he had already reported the matter to the Queen Mother, and he would get the news immediately.

But from Li Qingsheng, he learned that Fei Ran didn't say anything at all, he said that he told Zhou Xing about Qin Mu's usefulness, and he wasn't sure whether Zhou Xing would go to Qin Mu or not.

Xiaoqing had been waiting at home for an hour and didn't see Ruoqin come back, so she had no choice but to take advantage of the night to avoid the patrolling Jin Wuwei to come to the dilapidated house a kilometer away from the prison and call Qin Mu.

"Brother Qin..."Xiao Qing sobbed, she couldn't help crying anymore at this moment, "Xiao Qing is so stupid, those officials don't want to help you at all... I'm sorry..."

"It's okay, Xiaoqing, you at least do it, it's normal for them to help or not, how about Ruoqin?"

Speaking of this, Xiaoqing cried even more fiercely, "Ruoqin was lost, and I haven't gone home yet!" ”

"Ahh How to lose it! A big living person. ”

"I don't know..."

Qin Mu suddenly felt bad, this lost his wife and soldiers, it seems that he can only find a way to escape from prison.

Those officials all have interests with him, once Qin Mu loses power, these people will not have time to hide, Qin Mu can be regarded as a miscalculation.

He didn't expect Liu Changqing to have interests with Zhou Xing, and he was busy with other things during this time, so he didn't have time to deal with Liu Changqing's side.

He thought that as long as he curried favor with the Empress Wu, everything would be fine, but he didn't know that the rarest of them were the minions of the Empress Wu.

Late at night, inside the Lichun Palace.

Empress Wu looked in the mirror at the red dot on her arm, and her heart was extremely depressed.

Since she used Yelan Ballad, the faint fragrance at the beginning made her like it very much, but after a long time, she had red bumps on her body, and when she heard the same thing happen to other palace maids, she knew that this was a poison!

This Qin Mu was sent by someone to poison her.

Empress Wu hates others betraying her the most, Qin Mu looks loyal but after all, she is an outsider, although she is very smart, but it is because she is too smart that she can't stay.

"Your Royal Highness the Queen Mother, Qin Mu has been imprisoned in prison, please give instructions on the next step." Zhou Xing asked.

"Just keep it up, such a person should be locked up in prison for the rest of his life."

"No!"

At this time, Qin Mu didn't know that the reality had given him a life sentence, and he wanted to dig a tunnel to get out.

It was found that the entire prison had been modified and was made of a birdcage made of stone.

You can't get out unless there's an excavator out there.

"Old Wu, it's over, we seem to be going to prison for the rest of our lives!"

"Well, isn't that good?"

"I'm not laughing with you, I can't get out of here at all!"

Qin Mu realized that he had been used up, and then Empress Wu trapped him here, and when he wanted to use it, he would come to him and ask for a way to solve the problem.

Could it be because of Xue Huaiyi's prayer for rain?

Qin Mu thought for a long time before she figured out that she was too flamboyant, and even too smart, the Empress Wu felt threatened, and at the same time, her innate desire to control was playing tricks.

He has now become the most unstable factor.

He sat on the ground with his butt on his head, and his heart was half cold.

What he didn't consider was that what he had been doing was tantamount to a god-man, and he could do what people couldn't, and he was still a businessman, so he could trust the Empress Wu!

Could it be the fire that Shangguan Wan'er is running around the Empress Wu?

Qin Mu couldn't figure it out, instead of thinking about this, he should think about the future, but if he really wanted to be locked up for the rest of his life, there would be no future.

He regretted it in his heart, there were so many beauties around him, why didn't he do it!

I don't know if I want to die alone and live with a man in prison for the rest of my life!

It's over!

Wu Zhengji got up suddenly, "Qin Mu, are you sure you can't get out?" ”

Qin Mu nodded, "Yes, I'm sure, let me tell you this, even if there is a shovel to dig the tunnel, it will take a few years to dig it, and it is made of granite all around!" ”

Even the window above can only stick out one arm.

The darkness of despair enveloped Qin Mu's heart, and he felt that he was ruthlessly crushed by fate. Every day, he was trapped in the prison of losing his freedom, unable to contain the grief in his heart.

On that painful night, Qin Mu lay in a small cell, his thoughts chaotically recalling everything in the past. and the sense of despair of being innocently imprisoned.

Tears of remorse welled up in his eyes, and Qin Mu closed his eyes, trying to get rid of the pain in his heart. However, no matter how hard he tried, he felt desperate.

Silent battles were unfolding inside him. Self-blame, anger, and helplessness intertwine within him, trapping him in the abyss of despair. He felt haunted by an unjust fate, and every thought pierced his heart like a sharp needle.

Confused, Qin Mu began to wonder if his existence was meaningful. He felt himself engulfed by the darkness of despair and could not shake off the troubles in his heart. He began to wonder if he would be able to find his way to freedom.

In the silent cell, Qin Mu prayed silently, hoping that someone would hear his call and give him a ray of hope. However, the echo only reverberated coldly in the depths of his psyche, plunging him even deeper into bottomless despair.

"Get out of the way!" Qin Mu shouted.
