When she learned that Song Liyun was working as a dishwasher in a restaurant to earn money when she was seven years old, and that her two brothers were treated harshly and tortured by her stepmother and uncle, she was so distressed that she burst into tears.
"Such a cruel and evil bitch deserves to die. How could she be so naive and innocent?"
"Fortunately, you came back and took them to become military households, and they still have a good life now."
Mrs. Guard wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, with a look of sympathy on her face.
Speaking of which, Mrs. Guard is not a bad person.
Putting aside those who obey their father at home, obey their husband when married, and regard men as their first priority, if they take care of men in any way, they can be regarded as kind mothers.
When Zhao Tinglei came back in the evening, he had a rare rest in the main courtyard.
The guard lady undressed and took off his boots, and took the hot towel from the maid's hand to wipe his face.
Zhao Tinglei comfortably enjoyed being served before lying on the bed, and then asked in a deep voice: "Did you punish Aunt Li today?"
When Zhao Tinglei asked about Aunt Li, Mrs. Guard was not surprised.
So much time has passed, Zhao Tinlei should have heard the news even if he was staying in the government office.
Mrs. Guard knelt down and said, "Aunt Li is talking nonsense today, I just follow the family law."
Zhao Tinglei said oh, he had great trust in his wife's ability as a housekeeper, and he had always been tolerant and generous towards his concubine.
If Aunt Li is punished, then she deserves to be punished!
Zhao Tinlei only said: "I'd better ask the doctor to come and look at the injury tomorrow. She knows she was wrong!"
However, Mrs. Guard frowned and said, "The master is in charge of state affairs, but I still leave these inner affairs to be handled by my concubine. What Aunt Li has ruined is the master's reputation. How should I view the master if it falls in the ears of outsiders?"
Zhao Tinglei nodded indifferently: "Okay, it is my wife who has the final say in matters within the house."
In the afternoon, a maid who was close to Aunt Li came to him to plead for mercy. Amber Jade and others also looked timid and frightened, so he asked one more question.
Zhao Tinglei knew that his wife was the most observant of rules and was very kind to him without leaving any flaws.
Now if Aunt Li says something that will damage her reputation, she will definitely not take it lightly.
Aunt Li was also confused.
She had been with Zhao Tinglei for several years and was quite favored. Mrs. Guard was also generous and tolerant and almost did not compete with her for favor.
She forgot one thing.
In the minds of ordinary people, when it comes to adultery between men and women, no matter what the truth is, the woman will definitely be punished, while the man will be laughed at at most.
But she underestimated the mood of the guarding wife and husband.
Zhao Tinglei can have concubines, but no concubine dares to use Zhao Tinglei's reputation to harm others.
Moreover, the other party is also my newly married sister-in-law. This will not only ruin the reputation of the master, but also cause the brothers to fight against each other. It is not a pity to die for such a stupid and cheap servant.
When Aunt Li said these words, she was on the road to death.
Song Liyun did not stay in the guest room in the back house of the Guard House at night, but stayed in the former Anhuayuan.
Wu Dan lived in the next room and was eating grilled pork chops bought from the street with her.
Song Liyun's mouth became oily after eating. She had dinner with the guard's wife in the evening, and a group of concubines were waiting around her, making it difficult for her to eat.
Fortunately, Mr. Yu prepared a meal for her in the afternoon, so she was not hungry, and it was difficult to make a stove to make a fire.
Wu Dan was still smart and went out to the street to buy roasted pork chops to add to his meal.
"Young madam, Hecheng is really lively. Shops are still open even after dark. Can our Mida City be like this in the future?" Wu Dan looked forward to the bustling city of the future, with lights and colorful lights everywhere, fireworks, and people coming and going.
lively scene.
"Of course, we will not only sell things from the Wu Dynasty, but also things from the Di tribe. Then you can openly admit that you are a Di tribe without changing your clothes!"
Wu Dan's eyes lit up. Although he could walk around Hecheng now, he still had to change his clothes.
If you appear as a Di tribe member in a busy city, there is no guarantee that something unexpected will happen.
It was calm in the garrison in Hecheng, but in Songfeng County hundreds of miles away, things were going crazy.
According to reports, along the official road seventy miles away from the county seat, the lights were brightly lit and people were buzzing. Jiang, with sweat on his forehead, loudly reprimanded his servants.
After three days of hard work, the missing mules and horses were finally recovered from the mountains and forests, but the people were nowhere to be seen.
In the afternoon of that day, someone found blood stains all over the official road and reported it to the government. Chiang delayed the arrest until the evening.
It felt bad to look at the blood. There were only two people in Song Liyun, but there were so many bloodstains everywhere.
This would only happen if the body was cut into pieces or even the horse was killed.
I couldn't find any bodies around.
Another strange thing is that Xia Hong and others disappeared and did not go home.
Chief Jiang asked people to search in the city again, and reported five gangsters missing. He also chased Song Liyun and others out of the city that day.
Song Liyun!
This military girl must be found.
For three days, besides asking people to inquire about the whereabouts of Song Liyun and the boy, Jiang was looking for the mules and horses.
People can still hide, but the target of those ten horses is not small. It is impossible to completely avoid the eyes and ears and leave.
The search was not in vain. Not only were eight mules and horses found in the deserted forest, Song Liyun and his boy were also seen stopping outside a village a hundred miles away to feed the horses.
"I only saw them feeding the horses there. I didn't see where the people went. No one else, either?" Jiang Captou yelled with red eyes and pinched his neck.
"Boss, there's only the woman and the boy, no one else.
There are few places that this official road can go to. One end is Guankou Hecheng, and the other is our place. Only Qishan Town has a separate road to the south, but no one has been found!"
The yamen officer responsible for the pursuit was also very tired these two days. Although it was only a hundred miles away, he had to get off his horse and inquire about every village along the way, which made his voice hoarse.
"Boss, you need to go back to the county office and tell the county magistrate that the fugitive may have escaped from the customs. Please ask the county magistrate to report to the government office to ask the Zhenbei Army to come out and arrest the person."
Yunzhou is not prosperous in commerce and has few official roads. Apart from the main road in Fucheng, only the official road in Hecheng is the widest, which requires the passage of troops.
There are other places where Capt. Chiang can go and have a look. Hecheng is known as the military city, and he, a small captivity, is not qualified to go that far to investigate the case.
As soon as Jiang Captou heard about Hecheng, he subconsciously asked the Zhenbei Army to come forward: "Are you going to recruit people from the Hecheng garrison?"
Next to him, an elderly government servant whispered: "Jiangtou, we only saw Song's daughter feeding horses on the road, but there is no other evidence. What are you going to tell the county magistrate?"
Jiang Patou's expression froze, and his mind suddenly became clear.
That’s right! There is no evidence or evidence, not even a body. What do you say?
It is said that Xia Hong heard what he said and went after Song Liyun. Now that the person is missing, is it Song Liyun who killed people and destroyed their bodies?
What if the Xia family wants someone from me?
How can he find someone? Where can he find someone? Should he go to Suijin Town in Qili County... When he thinks of the black-haired monster tearing people's scalps off, he feels a chill on the top of his head.
"Lao Qi, please ask the brothers to quickly check the passers-by, especially young women who are single and accompanied by servants!"
After thinking about it, Chief Jiang decided to take it out first. He only needed to give the county magistrate a portrait of the suspect and said nothing else.
However, when he drew the portrait, he depicted a woman wearing a headscarf, with only a pair of round eyes exposed.
He had seen Song Liyun's face before, but the painting was too clear, so it was hard for him to get away from it.
On the other hand, Wu Dan's painting is very clear. He is a thin, dark boy with deep eyes and clear-cut face. He is very cute.
The disappearance of Xia Hong and others and the bloodstains on the official road, together with the portraits, became an archive of an unsolved case that occurred in Songfeng County.
