Chapter 209: Exhausted
Chapter 209: Exhausted
This bitch is obviously in a difficult situation, how dare she be so arrogant?
She looked at Chu Beiyu standing beside her, only to see that he also had a gloomy expression on his face, staring at the direction the carriage was leaving.
"My Lord, my sister..."
"Humph! This vicious woman is just struggling in vain."
Because of the token issue, he originally thought that as long as Ye Qingluo was willing to be a little more docile, he would give her a clear way out.
But now... there was a more vicious look in Chu Beiyu's eyes. He wanted to see how long Ye Qingluo could hold on.
He would never help unless she knelt down and begged for help.
Inside the carriage, Ye Qingluo thought about the current situation and felt exhausted for a moment. She knew very well that everything was related to Shangshu Mansion and Chu Beiyu.
Just knowing without evidence is useless.
Wang Jing was immediately imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison, along with Li Er. What about the other people in Huichun Hall?
"Madam, are we going to the restaurant or Huichuntang?"
"Park the carriage near Huichun Hall."
She had to confirm the conditions of the rest of the Huichuntang people except Li Er.
As soon as Ye Qingluo arrived at Huichun Hall, she was stopped by the guards. One of them recognized her and stepped forward and said, "It turns out to be Madam Ye."
“When was this seal put on?”
Ye Qingluo looked at the seal around Huichun Hall with mixed feelings.
"Just a few hours ago, an order came from the palace."
"What about the others? Where are they now? Are there any..."
Ye Qingluo clenched his fists, worried.
"Doctor Ye, those people are now detained in the Dali Temple. My master asked me to tell you that they are safe now, so there is no need to worry."
Ye Qingluo nodded slightly. She looked up at the plaque of Huichun Hall and thought about the current situation. It seemed that everything had become a joke.
At this time, she can't be angry or tired.
Ye Qingluo came to the restaurant again. Due to the closure of Huichuntang, the restaurant was also affected. No one had come in for several days, and passers-by avoided it.
"Shopkeeper Caiyue, Miss Cuizhu, the Madam is back!"
Adong, who was guarding outside, shouted inside when he saw Ye Qingluo.
When Ye Qingluo entered the restaurant, she saw two people running towards her. They came in front of her and wanted to say something but hesitated.
"Madam, at Huichun Hall..."
"I already know about the seizure."
Ye Qingluo said calmly, "Except for Li Er who is imprisoned in Diaojue, the rest of the Huichuntang people are in the Dali Temple prison."
"It's a blessing that you haven't been implicated."
"Caiyue, how is your recovery going?" Ye Qingluo asked.
"Ma'am, I'm fine now, but I don't think that everything that happened right now is a burden."
"Ma'am, I believe things will turn around."
"In addition to being imprisoned... the emperor also ordered that if the real culprit behind this is not found within seven days, they will be dealt with together."
"what?"
"How did things turn out like this!" Cui Zhu asked in shock, "Madam, where is the Marquis?"
Cuizhu felt something was wrong again and changed her words, "I mean whether we can find clues from the Second Madam."
"Madam, that Xiaoju was never the Second Madam's person, will she know anything?"
Caiyue quickly agreed when she heard it, "Yes, I'll go get Xiaoju right away."
"Not yet."
Ye Qingluo stopped him, "Huichuntang is in the spotlight right now, and the restaurant will definitely be under surveillance. Bringing Xiaoju here at this time is really too risky."
On her way to Huichuntang, she also felt a lot of attention around her.
"Don't worry too much. Even if something unexpected happens, I will take full responsibility."
"Madam, what are you talking about!"
Caiyue disagreed with Ye Qingluo's words, "If it weren't for Madam's help, we wouldn't be where we are today."
"Ma'am, we will always be by your side."
"Madam and the servants!"
"The same goes for us." Adong and other people in the restaurant echoed.
"it is good."
Looking at these people, her heart was deeply moved. Now was not the time to say discouraging words. The serious matter was to find the real murderer and rescue Li Er and the rest of Huichuntang from prison.
Shangshu Mansion.
"Father-in-law, why did you call me here?"
On his way back home, Chu Beiyu received news about Su Quanna and hurried over with Su Wan.
In addition to Su Quan, there was another person in the study room, Lu Ling.
"Marquis Pingyuan, do you still remember what happened in the military camp that night?" Lu Ling looked at Chu Beiyu.
Chu Beiyu's body froze. How could he forget the night when Ye Yuanshan discovered his secret and he made up his mind to get rid of him as soon as possible.
He asked Lu Ling tentatively, "Divine Doctor Lu, is there something wrong with Ye Yuanshan?"
Lu Ling's expression became serious. "Yes, the reason why the general issued the wrong order was entirely due to the influence of the twin insects. But I can't feel the presence of the insects in recent times."
If not for this, he wouldn't have made a special trip to Beijing.
"Dr. Lu said that someone has cured Ye Yuanshan of the poison?"
"The male Gu in the body of the state-guarding general, if it is dissolved, the corresponding female Gu will die immediately."
"But now the mother Gu has not been affected. Instead, it is in a dormant state. From this, we can judge that someone has cut off the connection with the mother Gu during this period."
Chu Beiyu was shocked. "If that's the case, then Ye Yuanshan..."
"The existence of the Gu worm can not only make people lose their minds, but also make them forget certain memories. In the end, they can't even remember who they are."
"As long as the insect is still in the body, the effect will continue. As for who did it..."
Lu Ling glanced at Su Quan and said to Chu Beiyu with an unclear expression.
"Marquis Pingyuan, are you really unaware of this?"
After hearing Lu Ling's explanation, Chu Beiyu felt a little more at ease. He also noticed that both Lu Ling and Su Quan were looking at him with suspicion.
"Bei Yu, I met Ye Qingluo in the palace today. She mentioned the matter of the twin Gu in front of me and Lu Ling."
"Ye Qingluo is a member of your family, but you didn't notice anything unusual about her?"
"abnormal……"
Chu Beiyu was stunned but couldn't find a clue. Although Ye Qingluo stayed in the Marquis' Mansion, he didn't care about the affairs of the mansion at all and could not be seen on weekdays.
If you say these things are related to Ye Qingluo, it doesn’t make sense.
Ye Yuanshan is in the frontier, a thousand miles away from the capital. Even if she is not in the Marquis' Mansion for a few days, it is impossible for her to do this.
"Marquis Pingyuan, the Minister and I feel that there must be someone behind this helping the general, and Ye Qingluo probably knows about it."
"Please be more careful and don't let this ruin your efforts."
After Chu Beiyu agreed, he quickly left the Shangshu Mansion. Su Wan, who was following him, felt the depressing atmosphere and was puzzled.
