White flags were hung in the Duke's mansion, and all the servants in the mansion were dressed in plain silk.
Uninformed people gathered around the gate of the Duke's Mansion and asked curiously: "What happened?"
Someone said: "I heard that the eldest lady in the house was killed.
The murderer has been caught and said to be a servant of the house.
It’s such a pity that this young lady, who was still a doctor, is gone just like that.”
The people all felt pity and sympathy, especially hearing the cries in the house, which made people moved.
In the crowd, there was a man wearing a curtain hat, listening to the people's comments, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and the corners of his lips seemed to evoke a disdainful smile.
Three days after the funeral, the coffin of the eldest lady of Guogong Mansion was sent to the ancestral grave of Guogong Mansion for burial.
After the funeral procession had left, the man wearing a curtain hat came to the tomb.
I saw the tombstone written on the tombstone of Miss Ye Jiajia from Zhenguo Palace.
The altar in front of the tomb was lit with incense and candles, and tributes were placed.
The man's eyes fell on Ye Jiajia's three words, and he said in a faint voice: "I didn't expect you, little junior sister, to give up your own name for the sake of glory and wealth. How sad."
He chuckled softly, and a dark color flashed across his eyes: "I didn't want to kill you originally. Master always praised you and said that your medical skills are outstanding and you are very talented.
I just want to see if your medical skills have improved after a long time?
Facts have proved that Master has misjudged the person. You are greedy for wealth and glory and only want to be the eldest daughter of the Duke's palace, and you have already wasted all your medical skills."
The man clasped his hands, took a deep breath, and continued: "Don't worry, I will go to Master's grave to inform him of your death.
I will let him know that I am his most proud disciple and the most qualified to inherit the Valley of Divine Medicine."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard footsteps behind him, accompanied by a man's voice: "Master Yue, you worshiped the wrong person."
Yue Lianmo turned around and saw a noble and handsome man walking over.
He stared at the visitor and asked with some vigilance: "Who are you? How do you know my surname is Yue?"
Ye Jinming said: "Yue Lianmo, the eldest disciple of the Divine Medical Valley, went astray. For the sake of becoming the master of the valley, he poisoned his own junior brother. He escaped from the Divine Medical Valley and his whereabouts are unknown."
Yue Lianmo narrowed his eyes: "Junior sister told you?"
Ye Jinming shrugged and said, "You must have poisoned Ruyi. You know that the servants in the house want to buy matsutake mushrooms for Ruyi to make a midnight snack.
So he charmed the farmer selling matsutake in advance, pretended to be his relative, and sold the poisonous matsutake to the servants of the house."
Yue Lianmo said: "So what? It's only my fault that my junior sister is not good at medical skills and couldn't notice it."
"Yeah?"
Ye Jinming's eyebrows moved and he asked: "Master Yue, does he know who is buried in this tomb?"
Yue Lianmo was stunned by his question and asked, "What do you mean?"
Ye Jinming pointed to the name on the tombstone and said: "Ye Jiajia is my biological sister. She disappeared when she was three years old. When I found her, she had been killed.
She is the long-lost eldest daughter of our Duke's family, and today I buried her body in the ancestral grave of our Ye family, which can be regarded as bringing her home."
Yue Lianmo was shocked. The person buried in this tomb was not his junior sister Xin Ruyi, but also the real eldest daughter of the Duke's mansion?
He realized that he had fallen into a trap, but it was already too late.
I saw guards surrounding the area, and someone walked through the crowd.
When Yue Lianmo saw the woman in the crowd, a stern look suddenly flashed in his eyes: "Little junior sister, you are really capable."
Xin Ruyi said: "Senior brother, I'm overly praised. I blame you for your eagerness for quick success.
