At this time, Xiao Rou suddenly came to the door crying. As soon as she saw her, she knelt down and said, "Third sister, please help us."
Huang Beiyue was dressed in brocade palace attire, which was the formal attire for entering the palace to meet the Queen Mother. The clothes were complicated but not ostentatious, gorgeous and noble. She looked down at Xiao Rou and asked, "What's wrong with the fourth sister?"
"It's Xiao Yun! The murderer must be Xiao Yun!" Xiao Rou burst into tears, with undried tears still remaining on her face, which were now washed away by new tears.
"It was Xiao Yun who rescued Aunt Xue and attacked my aunt by the way. I know her swordsmanship and she will definitely be right!"
Huang Beiyue sat down on the chair and said, "But now, I don't know where Xiao Yun and Aunt Xue have fled to, so how can I help you?"
Hearing what she said, Xiao Rou knew there was hope. She quickly wiped her tears and said, "They must be at the old man's place! I heard from my servants that they saw Xiao Zhonglei sneaking out of the back door of Xiao's house this morning!"
Huang Beiyue was not surprised. Xiao Yun and the others fled to the Xiao family. She had known this for a long time.
"Xiao Yun can be considered a murderer when she kills Aunt Qin. Leave this matter to Tingwei Temple."
Xiao Rou sobbed and said, "But with the old man protecting me, what will happen if Tingwei Temple catches someone?"
"Master Geng Zhong enforces the law impartially, do you still doubt him?"
"No!" Xiao Rou shook her head quickly, knowing that Rong Yuexuan had always been Huang Beiyue's own person, so she dared to say, "I, I have something, I don't know whether I should say it or not."
Huang Beiyue looked at her and seemed to know something big and unknown, so she winked at Dong Ling and asked her to go out and watch, and then said to Xiao Rou: "Tell me, fourth sister, I will be the one to take care of you."
You make the decision."
Xiao Rou could only place her hopes on Huang Beiyue now. Apart from her, it seemed that no one in the whole world could help her.
"Third sister, I don't know if I was dazzled at first. It was the Chinese New Year the year before last. I followed my father to the Xiao Mansion to greet the old man. At that time, I was still young and ignorant and liked to run around. My aunt couldn't hold me back.
Just leave me alone in the backyard where the old man lives."
As Xiao Rou spoke, she paused timidly, as if she was afraid that someone might eavesdrop. She waited until she was sure that the place was safe before continuing.
"I met several people from the Dongli Kingdom in the old man's backyard. Although they wore clothes from our Nanyi Kingdom, their tall figures were the characteristics of the Dongli people. They also spoke in the Dongli language.
, I don’t understand what they are saying.”
Huang Beiyue narrowed her eyes, lightly tapped the table with her hand on the table, and said, "You mean, there are people from Dongli Kingdom in my family?"
"I'm not sure if that's the case, but I heard the businessmen from Dongli Country talk in Bugir Market later, just like what I heard in the old man's backyard that day!"
"Fourth sister, our Nanyi Kingdom and Dongli Kingdom have never been on good terms, and it is strictly forbidden for our countrymen to interact with Dongli people in private. Do you know that if what you say is true, the Xiao family will be accused of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country.
"Huang Beiyue said slowly.
Xiao Yun and his party burst into tears and said in tears: "Third sister, I really don't know if I've been underestimated. For so many years, I haven't dared to say anything to anyone. I'm just afraid..."
"However, in a few days, I heard that there were envoys from Dongli Country coming to study in Nanyi Country as friendly diplomatic relations. I was worried that they would have something to do with the old man..."
