Chapter 139 The Threat of the Pearl

 Towards evening, when the sky was darkening, on Xinzheng South Street, a mighty team of several hundred people walked towards the palace.

This is the forbidden army sent by Han Wangan to protect Hu Meiren.

With Mrs. Hu's lessons learned, Han Wangan was afraid that something might happen to Mrs. Hu, so he directly sent more than 300 people to follow and protect her.

Hu Mei and her personal maid sat in a carriage, surrounded by many imperial troops, and drove slowly towards the palace.

Hu Meiren in the carriage changed from her previous sadness and sadness, her expression was incomprehensible, her brows were furrowed and her eyes were blank, as if she was thinking about something.

How could it be? That corpse... that corpse doesn't seem to be my sister...

Although Liu Yi and Mrs. Hu were husband and wife, they had been at odds for many years and their familiarity with her was average. In addition, they subconsciously trusted Mo Ya, Ji Wuye's confidant, so they did not check the disguised corpse too much.

The undertaker who arranged the corpses had also been bribed and controlled by Mo Ya for a long time, so he was always deceived.

But Hu Meiren was different. She couldn't accept her sister's sudden death. After seeing the body, she felt that this person was different from her sister, so she naturally had doubts.

When she was at Zuo Sima Mansion, she wanted to check, but it was inconvenient for her to tamper with her sister's body, which had been sorted out. She went to find Liu Yi, but he just did it perfunctory and completely regarded her suspicion as a mistake.

It’s just an escape from reality, just unwilling to accept the tragic death of my sister.

Of course, the more important thing is that he was frightened by Mo Ya's words when he was in the general's mansion.

He suspected that someone who knew Baiyue's past might be eyeing him, and he was worried about it. How could he be in the mood to care about Hu Meiren's inexplicable suspicion?

Hu Meiren can only give up temporarily.

After returning to the palace, the more Hu Meiren thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong, and the suspicion in her heart became more and more serious. Finally, she couldn't sit still anymore and decided to go to Han Wangan and ask him to order a careful inspection of her sister's body.

Just as Hu Meiren was walking towards Han Wang'an's palace, an unexpected person appeared and stopped her.

Under the rising moonlight, a tall and enchanting figure slowly walked towards the fast-moving Hu Meiren, and a charming and seductive voice sounded:

"My sister is walking in such a hurry, where do you want to go?"

The visitor is naturally Mrs. Mingzhu.

Hu Meiren was a little surprised to see her.

Isn’t this woman recovering from an illness? It doesn’t look like there’s anything wrong with her? Why is she here?

Anyway, Hu Meiren doesn’t believe it was a chance encounter.

After so many years in the palace, she knows best how difficult it is to deal with the woman in front of her.

Hu Meiren suppressed her doubts and bowed, "I've met my sister."

Then he pretended to be concerned:

"I heard that my sister was ill, and I should have gone to visit her. However, my own health was not good enough, so I decided not to go if it was inconvenient for me to go."

Mingzhu walked up to Hu Meiren, leaned forward slightly, got close to her, and said softly:

"My sister is concerned. However, my health is not serious, so don't worry. But sister, you...are infected with the cold, have suffered a big change, and are exhausted physically and mentally. It's best not to wander around at night."

"Haha, thank you sister for your warning, I saved it, but I really have something urgent to do to see the king, so I have to come out."

"Is it about Mrs. Hu?" Mrs. Mingzhu asked in a playful tone.

Hu Meiren was startled and took a few steps back unconsciously, staring closely at Mrs. Mingzhu.

How does she know? What... does she know?

When her own sister was involved, Hu Meiren didn't care how dangerous Mrs. Mingzhu was and asked directly:

"What do you know?"

Mingzhu looked at Hu Meiren who was far away from her, smiled softly, stood up straight again, and said with a hint of warning:

"I think my sister may have some doubts in her heart, but... doubts are just doubts after all. It feels bad to lose a loved one, I know, but it's better for my sister to accept the reality, otherwise... I'm afraid it will only hurt more people.



"The deceased has passed away, but the living must continue to move forward. Do you think I am right, sister?"

After Mrs. Mingzhu finished speaking, without waiting for Hu Meiren's reaction, she turned around and walked away with her long legs.

Hu Meiren stared blankly at the other party's figure gradually disappearing into the shadows of the night, her expression dull and her eyes confused.

Mrs. Mingzhu's warning can be said to be very straightforward. She clearly told Hu Meiren that there is indeed something fishy about your sister, but don't think about pursuing it, otherwise you will get into trouble.

After struggling in her heart for a long time, Hu Meiren finally chose to give up and return to the palace.

Mrs. Mingzhu is more favored than herself in front of Han Wangan, and behind her is the powerful general Ji Wuye. If she insists on going her own way to find Han Wangan, I'm afraid... she will not end well.

But she doesn't really want to give up on Mrs. Hu, she's just pretending to be a temporary one. If she wants to find out the truth behind it, her actions must be carried out secretly.

………………

In the General's Mansion, Ji Wuye lost his temper again after returning from the palace.

The reason was naturally that he was severely reprimanded by Han Wangan.

He and Kaifeng were rushed into the palace by Han Wang An, and then they sprayed all over their faces!

Everything is trash, what use do you have for me, even the family members of military and political ministers can be killed at will, anyway, it’s just all kinds of snarling.

Kaifeng was an old fox, and he directly put all the blame on Ji Wuye.

Moreover, Ji Wuye was originally responsible for matters such as the security and defense of the capital, and Kaikai had no military power. These really had little to do with him. Han Wangan called him here simply because he was unhappy and wanted to find a few more people to sneeze at.
Then Han Wangan focused on Ji Wuye and reprimanded him for more than a quarter of an hour. Ji Wuye's face turned black and blue until he finally issued a military order to ensure that he would be caught within ten days.

The murderer, Han Wangan, let him go.

Although he had expected this situation when he made the plan to kidnap Mrs. Hu and fake her death. After all, Mrs. Hu died mysteriously. It is strange that Hu Meiren would be willing. If the wind blows from his pillow, Han Wangan will definitely not be calm, but really

After being trained, Ji Wuye, who was originally unhappy because his injury was not healed, naturally became even worse.

After casually beating to death a few more servants who looked displeased, Ji Wuye let out a sigh of relief.

"Ink Crow!"

Ji Wuye casually summoned his capable men and asked:

"Is everything ready?"

Mo Ya half-kneeled and saluted, "General, don't worry, everything is safe. You can make the next step at any time."

"Very good, let's wait until... uh... seven days later and finish the work as planned."

"Yes, General."

Since Ji Wuye dared to issue a military order in front of Han Wangan, it was naturally because he could definitely catch the murderer.

With millions of people in South Korea, can they still not find a murderer?

General Ji will give him whatever Han Wangan wants.

Ji Wuye himself is the mastermind behind the scenes, so he can just find some random people to take the blame.

Of course, if there is a real murderer, it is not suitable to do this. Otherwise, Ji Wuye will find someone to take the blame, and the murderer will kill again. Wouldn't it be embarrassing?
