Chapter 181: The Wusun Mission has been robbed
Seeing Luo Qianhuai standing there with no injuries on his face and hands, Wen Pu hung his heart for a long time, and then fell to the ground with a pop.
In these years, if the little lady is really caught in prison, how can she come out of the whole house. He didn't want to mention those bad things, so as not to scare his well-behaved and lovely niece.
Luo Qianhuai asked about the events of the year. His perspective is not exactly the same as Yan Shu's, but what he says is much the same.
The difference is mainly in the pharmacy guy who turned himself in. He was originally a beggar picked up by Liu Laolang, healed his injuries and taught him to identify medicinal materials, and stayed in the shop as a buddy.
That guy has always been diligent and rigorous in his work, and he will not mistake the difference between raw aconite and making attached films, and it is impossible to mix them at will just because he wants to save trouble, as he confessed.
After the incident, he was beaten and imprisoned, and later it is said that he committed suicide because of guilt.
To this day, Wen Pu is still haunted by this matter.
Luo Qianhuai couldn't figure out why. She mentioned the new Changling Order to her uncle, saying that Master Huo was honest and strict, and maybe she could help him overturn the case and retry it.
Wen Pu heard it, but he didn't take it seriously.
Some time ago, Dr. Tao Sheng Tao also mentioned this matter, and he also entrusted someone to operate it behind his back, but when he saw him again yesterday, he showed embarrassment and said a few words secretly.
Wen Pu didn't have much hope, and it was not surprising to hear that the result was like this. He solemnly thanked Dr. Tao and completely accepted his fate in his heart.
So for his niece's words, he didn't take it to heart at all. What the Taizhong doctor with 800 stones of people has not done, how can a little lady do it easily.
Who is the new Changling Ling, it has been spread all over the market recently, it is really from a prominent family, but it is not the kind of pampered son.
I heard that when he released the assassination history outside Xinzhou, his methods were very tough, and he killed many people from officials to bandits, not to mention that the small people were worried in their hearts, even those slippery old officials who had been passed down from generation to generation in the Yi court did not dare to slack off.
Everyone is waiting, and no one will test this Lord Huo with something out of place at this time.
And more importantly, Lord Xu, the Changling Lieutenant who previously reviewed this case, is still alive, and it seems that he is still quite valued by Lord Huo, just for the sake of the four words of official protection, this case cannot be overturned.
No matter what considerations Lord Xu had for convicting him at that time, this matter was already a certainty, and there was no room for change.
The night wind was fierce, the shadows outside the window were slanting horizontally, and the quiet candle flame in the house was swaying inexplicably.
Huo Yu put down the pen, rubbed his sore wrist, and walked to the candlestick, holding the silver scissors and cutting off the forked wick.
The candlelight became as soft as before, reflecting his shadow on the latticework of the three-crossed six-fold rhombic window, tall and long, thoughtful.
The silver filigree charcoal fire is smokeless and tasteless, with only an occasional slight beeping sound.
Huo Yu suddenly felt a little depressed. He pushed open the window, and the cold wind immediately poured in, and in a moment he pushed the window back again.
"Lang Jun." He Jian pushed the door in the frost and entered: "But there is something to order?" β
Huo Yu wanted to say nothing, but when the words came to his lips, they suddenly changed.
"She's been doing it for the past two days. How are you doing? β
He Jian was holding back his words, and when he heard the words, he hurriedly bowed down and replied: "The young lady is making a lot of trouble and insists on seeing you." I have dropped more than 20 porcelain ornaments, and the food delivered is not delicious. In the afternoon, someone reported that he was sick, and his subordinates dared to invite Lang Zhong to take a look, saying that it was a disease of liver stagnation and qi stagnation."
Huo Yu understood that he had misunderstood.
"I said it, let Madame calm down for a while, and when you figure it out, then report it to me."
He Jian had been waiting for Huo Yu for many years, so he could naturally hear the dissatisfaction in his tone.
However, the "she" in Lang Jun's mouth, if she is not a young lady, who can she be?
Suddenly, he remembered a petite and beautiful figure in his mind. But no matter how slender and touching that person is, he is just a lowly and somewhat treacherous little lady, how can he deserve so much attention from his family?
But as the first person to be used in front of Lang Jun, He Jian would not reveal these doubts.
"It's a misunderstanding on the part of a subordinate." His face was as usual: "Mrs. Luo hasn't been out recently, but there are constant visitors in front of the door." β
He briefly explained the situation, and saw that his Langjun didn't say a word, took the black fox fur, and was about to go out.
"Lang Jun, it's so late, it's time for you to rest." He tactfully admonished: "For a few days in a row, I will rest in the rear, and even the iron body will not be able to stand it." β
Huo Yu didn't stop at his feet, didn't pay attention to him, only ordered people to prepare horses, and went all the way into Dongshi.
Dongshi has long been closed, and from a distance, I can only see that there are still lights in Mingyue Building, and most of the other stores have been closed and locked, and it is pitch black.
Huo Yu jumped off the horse in front of Luo Qianhuai's shop, took a deep breath, and motioned for He Jian to come forward and knock on the door.
At this moment, I suddenly saw a fast horse galloping, and the sound of the horse's hooves stepping on the bluestone slab was like thunder, which alarmed the merchants on both sides of the street, and lit the lights one after another.
"My lord! Oh no! The messenger saw Huo Yu from afar, and immediately came to his senses, rushed straight to him, turned over and dismounted, and threw himself at his feet: "The Wusun delegation entered Beijing to worship, and it was robbed outside Changlingyi!" β
The movement outside was so loud that Luo Qianhuai was also alarmed. When she got dressed and got up, Xingjiu had already gone to the door to take a lookβthe person was gone.
The mission of Wusun Kingdom did not come early or late, but in the middle of the night the third watch passed through Changling, but it was also robbed here, the convoy was killed, the envoys and the state letter are nowhere to be found, this is a major event that has not been seen for many years, tomorrow will surely alarm the government and the opposition, cause His Majesty to be angry.
Huo Yu immediately extinguished other thoughts, and hurriedly returned to the Yi court to summon the upper and lower people, and while issuing a martial law order, he also had soldiers and horses to go out of the city.
These things have nothing to do with ordinary ordinary people. Luo Qianhuai yawned and went back to the house, and soon put out the lights and candles and fell asleep.
Two figures dressed in black night clothes fell silently into the front yard. Xing Jiu had already received the letter, so he hurriedly greeted him, bowed down and said, "Xing Jiu has seen the son and the camp master. β
"Get up." Mo Gongzi tore off the face towel, revealing a jade-like appearance.
Xing Jiu got up according to his words, and said solemnly: "I don't know if Gongzi came in person, what happened?" β
Mo Gongzi smiled faintly, and his eyes flashed like thousands of stars. He walked to the backyard: "I just can't rest assured, just come and see her." β
Xing Jiu and Wei Ying silently followed, but they saw that their fearless master, who had always held the wisdom pearl in his hand, actually stopped in front of the door, and his eyes showed hesitation.
He muttered for a few moments, but still didn't open the door.
