"What? The guard beside Ying'er drowned?" Duke Qian was a little surprised.
How could he drown to death if he was fine? "But the prince..." Could he move his hands?
The person who spoke back lowered his head.
Duke Qian quickly realized that it was a bit stupid to ask.
Mu Yan was looking for someone to confront him about how he could kill such an important witness. His face was burning. He straightened his face and said to the visitor: "Go and check the situation and see who else is in his family.
Send some money over there."
"Yes." The man responded and left.
Duke Qian pressed his forehead as he had a headache.
After a while, he called his confidants in again and said, "Go to the main room for me and send one hundred thousand taels of silver there. Then go to the warehouse to pick out some sets of jewelry and some clothing materials to send over."
"Also, the servants of the big house who accompanied the Crown Prince's wife to give birth that day were all given three months of silver as a generous reward. In addition, if there is no good courtyard on the east road, tell the Crown Prince that the courtyard in the mansion is up to him.
Pick. If you like Cuihuangyuan, you can move back after it is repaired."
The confidant nodded in agreement. When he carried the things to the courtyard of the main house, he heard that the prince had gone out.
I had no choice but to hand over the banknotes and things to Mother Ma, convey the words of the Duke, and go back.
Mother Ma reported back to Huo Xi. Huo Xi nodded and didn't even look at those things. She just asked Mother Ma and Vanilla to take them down and register them.
Then he ordered: "Mother Ma, go to the warehouse and pick out two generous gifts to give to the third lady and the fourth young lady to express my gratitude. In addition, thank you for the doctor and the medical woman that Qian San brought back that day."
Pass?"
"Madam, don't worry. The prince has told us to get it done and given generous rewards. Even their masters have sent thank-you gifts."
"That's good. Is Wan'er's nanny safe? Has the family checked?"
"We have already decided on the wet nurse. She was chosen by the prince himself. The family is simple and clean. She also takes good care of Wan'er."
"That's good. Then you choose another hairpin to give to her. Just say that I haven't been feeling well these days and Wan'er needs her to be more careful with it."
"Madam, don't worry. In addition to the wet nurse, Vanilla also helps take care of the girl. The prince also sent two little maids there, so we have enough people to handle her."
Huo Xi nodded. After dealing with this, he felt tired, tilted his head again, and fell asleep.
Outside the mansion, in the small dark room where Jiao Zan was once imprisoned, Mu Yan looked coldly at several foreigners who looked very different from the Han people in the room.
He ordered: "Detain them separately and interrogate them one by one."
Kan Er immediately took the person down.
"The people dressed up as us were also dressed up by this group of people?"
Li Yiyi nodded: "Yes, they are dressed up by the same group of people."
"Okay, very good." You dare to pretend to be his private soldier! "No matter what method you use to pry open their mouths, I will know the result before sunset today."
Li nodded in agreement and asked again: "Your Majesty, would you like to capture Qi Sheng again and ask?"
Qi Sheng was dismissed from his post and sent to the border guard station. Some of the government soldiers guarding the gate that day were beaten, and some were dismissed from their posts and kicked out of the government.
But for Li Yi and the others, these punishments were too light. Although they all obeyed orders, if they were not indifferent, there would be no value in retaining them.
"In addition to the government soldiers guarding the gate that day, my subordinates believe that we need to capture a few more government soldiers and ask them to see if they have received any special instructions."
Mu Yan was silent, "Those are marginal figures, and I'm afraid very little is known about them. We still need to start from Jun's confidants. And the man in black who ran into the house that day, has the whereabouts been found? 1
I will ask those people in the room again if they are with them."
"My subordinate will go right away."
"Wait a minute." Mu Yan stopped him, "Send some more people to quietly visit various medical clinics in the city to see where the doctors visited that day and when they received the information."
Li Yi suddenly realized that he almost forgot about it.
That day, doctors from all the medical clinics came to see me. If this was a coincidence, even ghosts would not believe it.
"Your Majesty, there are still doctors here." All the doctors have left the city, which is strange.
Mu Yan nodded: "Yes, it is better to make a breakthrough with the doctor than with the doctor."
"Yes, I will send someone to take care of it now."
The news that Mu Yan sent people to inquire about the doctor and the medical woman soon reached Jun's ears. She was so anxious that she walked around the room several times.
A scoundrel like Mu Yan doesn't play according to common sense, often comes up with strange tricks, and has many people at her disposal. Even if she thought she had done everything meticulously that day and had everything covered, there was still no guarantee that there would be any omissions.
The best way now is to let Mu Yan and his wife return to Beijing. In this case, the matter will be settled.
It stands to reason that since his son has been in Yunnan for so long, the emperor should have recruited him back long ago. Why is it that he is still allowed to stay in Yunnan after more than a year?
"Come here, sharpen ink for me."
Jun wrote several letters to Mrs. Geng, Mu Wang in the capital, Mu Jing, the concubine of King Zhao, and Mu Jin who married to the Marquis of Wuding and others... After writing and sealing them, he ordered them to be sent out immediately.
I felt that this was not safe enough, so I thought about it all night and returned to Jun's house the next day.
When Jun Xiangjie saw his daughter coming to visit him, tears welled up in his eyes. Lying on the bed, life was worse than death. He hoped for countless times that a miracle would happen and that he would be able to regain his former glory of making slaves and maids and running rampant in Kuncheng.
She made a sound in her throat, and wanted to reach out and hold her daughter tightly to express her heartfelt feelings, but she couldn't lift her hands at all, and only her eyeballs could move. Two more tears fell from the corners of her eyes.
Seeing him like this, Aunt Jun's eyes turned red.
"Father……"
"Drink..."
"My daughter is unfilial and cannot always take care of her salary. It is all my fault that my father suffered such a serious crime..." Aunt Jun dismissed all the servants, and at this moment she was in the room pouring out her heartfelt feelings to Jun Xiangjie.
"... That evil Mu Yan failed to get rid of him when he was a child, so he became a tiger. Now that his wings are hard, he threatens your grandson's status... Without him, your grandson can only live under his feet, etc.
Once the Duke of Guo dies, your two grandsons can only be the side branches of the Mu family..."
"Drink..."
"My eldest brother and my mother-in-law saw that I was in trouble, so they spared no effort to help me from the moment I entered the mansion. I once promised him that as long as Zhan'er becomes the heir, the Jun family can run sideways in Yunnan... Yes
I harmed my eldest brother..."
"...In these years, my father and elder brother have not seen me sad and sad. They have stood up for me in everything. My daughter is grateful for it. In the next life, she will be her father's daughter and her elder brother's sister. In the next life, I will tie a grass ring to repay you..."
Jun Ruoxu heard from his servants that his aunt had come home and went to see his grandfather in his house. He hurried over to see her.
Thinking about it all the way, the Jun family is in a difficult situation now, and this aunt is the only one who thinks about the Jun family all the time, and suddenly feels a little ashamed of what he did. He betrayed his grandfather and the family.
I kept my head buried in thoughts all the way, and my heart was extremely tormented. I wanted to tell my aunt something, they were just blood relatives.
When he walked outside the house, he heard his aunt talking to his grandfather in a low voice. Jun Ruoxu stopped and stood outside the door without making a sound.
The aunt must have many things to say to the grandfather, so he would wait. He also had many things to say to the aunt.
Words such as "knot a ring of grass to repay", "don't blame your daughter" and "...atone for your sins" were vaguely heard in the room. Jun Ruoxu felt a little emotional. Her aunt must have been sad to see her grandfather like this.
He looked around the courtyard and found that there was not a single servant in the courtyard.
Just as he was wondering, he heard a thud on the bed board. Jun Ruoxu peeked into the room and saw his aunt leaning over and stretching out her hands, not knowing what to do.
Just as he was about to ask, he heard his aunt's panicked cry from inside the house: "Father! Father, what's wrong with you? Someone, come quickly!"
