Chapter 4: The Poisoning of the Major General

Meng Sangpo's eyes turned red instantly, and she counted angrily: "It's really a loose hand and a big heart, it's not a success!" It's hard to earn a few copper plates, and you're done with it, you're going to be angry with me!

Wife, I don't have a few days to live, you might as well save this money, and you can accompany it in the future, and also, work diligently in the Major General's Mansion, I heard that the Major General is going to stay in Pucheng for a few years, if this person is really good, you can't lose such a good errand, understand? ”

Huang Ye nodded casually, took off the half-wet coat on his body, changed into dry clothes, and took out the wet clothes and some rain-soaked things in the back basket and put them by the brazier to bake, and turned around to go to the stove house to eat.

After finishing the work, it was so dark that she couldn't see her fingers, she quickly closed the door, lay down on the edge of the brazier, saw that Meng Sangpo was weaving again, and persuaded again: "What I said is true, you don't have to work so hard in the future, I will support you for the elderly." ”

Meng Sangpo didn't raise her head, and said with a smile while she kept busy: "Okay! I'll wait for you to grow up and raise me. ”

"I can raise you now!" Huang Ye sat up abruptly and looked directly at Meng Sangpo, "My adoptive parents died early, if you hadn't brought me back, my grave would have grown grass, and I swore to repay you for your nurturing grace at that time, so Meng Sangpo, you have to take care of yourself and wait to enjoy the blessings."

It's not early, don't be busy, hurry up and lie down and sleep, I don't have time to repair the roof, and you can't go up, I'll go to Uncle Liu early tomorrow morning, let him come over and help, I'll take out two copper plates. ”

Meng Sangpo was originally quite moved, but when she heard the last sentence, her face sank instantly, "You still haven't listened to what I just said!" Isn't it just to build a roof and give back two copper plates, and you think that the copper plates fell from the sky? I'm so....."

Meng Sangpo couldn't stop complaining, Huang Ye smiled helplessly, didn't argue with her, and fell asleep after a while.

The next morning, she got up before dawn, it was still raining outside, and she was afraid that it would be difficult to walk on the road.

"It's raining today, be careful on the road, I'd rather be late than fall, after all, I'm wearing other people's clothes, and it's hard to explain if it's dirty." Meng Sangpo looked at the brand-new clothes on Huang Ye's body and smiled with a wrinkled face.

Huang Ye glanced down at himself, not very concerned, "It's just that the subordinates are wearing it, and they have to send me a body if it gets dirty, so there's nothing bad to explain." ”

Meng Sangpo was so angry that she poked her head again, "Stinky girl! I told you to be more careful, do you hear me! ”

Huang Ye hurriedly nodded, put on a hat and rushed out of the house with a basket.

Meng Sangpo chased to the door, shouting at the top of her voice, "Slow down, you slow down....."

Huang Ye ran to the entrance of the village before stopping and gasping twice, and glanced back at the village, the corners of her mouth raised a chuckle, and finally got rid of Meng Sangpo's terrifying nagging.

At this moment, there was a sound of horses' hooves in the distance.

The smile on Huang Ye's face suddenly disappeared, and as soon as she flashed to the grass on the side, a group of more than a dozen cavalry galloped in front of her from far and near.

She looked in the direction the soldiers were heading, and hurried into the city.

There was an old man guarding the back door of the Major General's Mansion, and he let her in after seeing Huang Ye's dress and brand.

At this time, it is estimated that it is only more than half of the hour, and the back kitchen is already busy, and as soon as she stepped into the door, she was called by the steward to burn a fire, and it is good to say that she is responsible for six stoves alone, and she has not been idle since she entered the back kitchen, and almost ran out of her ghost.

On this day, she has been groping for how to manage the six stoves reasonably, and she can't care about seeing what is the situation of others.

It took her three days to get used to the heavy work in the back kitchen, and before she could breathe a sigh of relief, Steward Zhang and Yan Shi, who had arranged for them to work, suddenly rushed into the courtyard with a group of people.

"No one is allowed to move, now gather in the courtyard!"

At the sound of a strict order, the lively back kitchen suddenly fell silent, and in less than a quarter of an hour, everyone put down their work and stood in the courtyard in silence.

Yan Shi looked at everyone coldly, and a soldier dragged a woman in.

Huang Ye fixed his eyes and saw that it was Ah Li, at this time, Ah Li was beaten all over his body, his body was covered in blood, he had more air out and less air in, but he was afraid that he would not survive.

Everyone was so frightened by Ah Li's appearance that they took a step back, and their faces were as white as ghosts.

Yan Shi looked at everyone, his eyes were like torches, "Last night, the major general was poisoned in less than two quarters of an hour after dinner, who did it!" Honestly, I can still save your life, if you don't say it..... Everybody is going to be tortured! ”

Several people were so frightened that they fell to the ground, and a few were directly frightened and fainted.

A few people fell, and a group of people knelt down, Huang Ye finally saw Xiao Tao, only to see the girl standing stupidly and motionless, unusually abrupt in the crowd, and I don't know if she was scared stupid.

Sure enough, Yan Shi and Steward Zhang were the first to notice Xiao Tao.

"Let's start with her, interrogate well, I don't believe I can't ask!" Yan gritted his teeth, and it seemed that he was really angry.

Xiao Tao didn't react until she was caught, crying in horror, struggling hard, "Adults spare their lives, adults spare their lives, slaves and maids don't know anything, slaves and maids are wronged, slaves and maids went home before dark yesterday, slaves and maids are really wronged....."

Xiao Tao's heart-rending cry seemed to hit the tip of Huang Ye's heart, trembling and trembling, and then looking at Ah Li, who had passed out on the ground, Huang Ye inexplicably felt a resentment in his heart, and suddenly raised his head and looked directly at Yan Shi, "My lord, can the slave have the courage to ask the young general what poison he was in, and why was he poisoned?" Although the slave maid and others are not worthy of the eyes of adults, the slave maid and others do not want to die in vain, I heard that the young general is benevolent and righteous, and he will not disregard human life! ”

"Bold! When is it your turn to speak to a lowly slave? Come on, pull this out for me and beat her to death! Steward Zhang bluffed, and angrily ordered the little guy next to him to do it.

"Wait." Yan Shi glanced at Steward Zhang, his sharp gaze fell on Huang Ye, and he was a little surprised to see her stubborn face, and muttered: "Although this girl is bold, there is one thing that makes her right, the reputation of the young general cannot be damaged." ”

"Yes....." Steward Zhang's face was innocent, he didn't dare to do anything to Yan Shi, so he glanced at Huang Ye viciously.

Huang Ye didn't even give him a look, which made Steward Zhang more and more annoyed.

Yan Shi said: "Last night, more than half of the major generals used the food sent by the back kitchen, and after two quarters of an hour, they had vomiting and diarrhea, and after Mr. Wen showed it to the major general, he confirmed that the major general was poisoned, and the problem was in the meal." ”
