Chapter 86: People From the Capital (2)

After hearing Zijin's words, Yuxi didn't accept the sign at all, but asked: "You mean, the person said that the third sister said it himself, and asked him to hand over the letter to me?"

Zijin nodded and said, "Yes, word for word."

Yuxi smiled, and said to Shiliu: "Let Guard Xu arrest this person for interrogation, and see what is the purpose of this person coming to the mansion?"

Zijin's complexion changed slightly, and she asked, "Ma'am, is this person an assassin?"

Yuxi shook her head and said: "I don't know who it is, but I'm sure, it's definitely not the person sent by Yuchen." The reason is very simple, Yuchen has received the strictest teaching, how could he say that to a man? , asking him to teach the letter into her hands himself. Moreover, if it was really a confidential letter, it would also be sent by her confidant woman or maid who was dowry in the past, at least she knew these people. How could it be possible for a strange face to send a letter at a confidential time.

Xu Wu heard what Shiliu said, and immediately brought people to arrest this steward.

By the time Guan Shi realized something was wrong, it was already too late. When he was arrested, Steward Shi yelled loudly and said: "I am the steward of Prince Jing's Mansion. I sent letters to my wife on behalf of my princess. Why did you arrest me?"

Xu Daniu really found a letter in Steward Shi's sleeve, looking at the font on the letter similar to Madam, Xu Daniu said: "Do you want to send this letter to Madam?"

Xu Wu received the letter, and said to the guard at the side: "Look at the person first." As for how to deal with it, I have to ask my wife.

Zijin accepted the letter first, read it carefully, and said, "Madam, the letter is intact. It has not been opened."

Yuxi took the letter, looked at the words written on the envelope, and said, "This is Yuchen's handwriting." I believe no one is more familiar with Yuchen's handwriting than Yuxi. The two of them learned from a gentleman, and although they both learned plum blossom fonts, she didn't learn the essence. And the plum blossom font written by Yuchen really achieves "flowers when viewed from a distance, characters when viewed up close, characters in the flowers, flowers hidden in the characters, and the characters blend together." ’ It can be said that Yuchen’s handwriting is enough to be used as a copybook.

After hearing this, Zijin said, "Ma'am, didn't we arrest the wrong person?"

Yu Xi smiled lightly and said: "This letter is in Yuchen's handwriting, but the letter has been opened. Someone has already read this letter first." Although the other party was very careful, he could still see the clues. It's not that Yuxi is so good, but that she has learned it.

Zijin's eyes widened, and she asked, "Why didn't I see it?" She looked at it very carefully just now, but she didn't find any traces of disassembly.

Yuxi smiled and said: "If even you can see it, then this method is too clumsy. Ask Xu Wu to interrogate that person and ask him how he got the letter that Princess Jing wrote to me." Those in the backyard of the palace The woman has many tricks, and Quan Nuan is worried that she will also encounter schemes when she marries into a noble family, so she tells her all these things. I also taught her a lot of ways to deal with cracking, no, I used it.

Zijin snorted, and said, "Ma'am, hurry up and see if this letter is written by Princess Jing? Maybe it's been dropped too!"

After opening the letter and reading it, a sneer appeared on Yuxi's face.

Seeing this, Zijin hurriedly asked: "What's the matter? Did you write something embarrassing for Madam?" After a distance of thousands of miles, there has been no correspondence for more than half a year, so it's strange that writing letters can have good things!

Yuxi didn't say anything, just handed the letter to Zijin. Zijin watched it for a long time before finishing it, and then said: "I just said that there is nothing good to do, and you actually want you to persuade the general to join the prince? She is so embarrassed to ask. At that time, my wife was almost killed by Song Slut twice, and she didn't even give a shit. Didn’t let it go, pretended nothing happened. Who is disgusting to run out to be a lobbyist now!” Yuchen is beautiful and very perfect, but Zijin thinks it is fake.

There was no smile on Yuxi's face, and she said: "This letter may not be Yuchen's original intention. There are ten times out of ten that this letter was written by the crown prince or King Jing who instructed her to write it." Royal women seem to be superior, but in fact they are surrounded by many bound by the rules. For example, they can't interfere in the affairs of the outer court, let alone government affairs. Of course, the most important thing is that Yuchen persuaded her to take refuge in the prince. Yuchen herself won't get half of the benefits, so how could she take the initiative to do such a thankless thing.

Zi Jin immediately started scolding: "Prince and King Jing? When the bitch Song wanted to kill Madam, they didn't know about it. Now they have the nerve to ask Madam to persuade the general to join them? Are they really arrogant?"

Yu Xi said indifferently: "One of them is the prince, and the other is respecting the king. How can they not be arrogant? Maybe they will think that it is Yunqing's honor that Yunqing can be wooed by them!"

Zi Jin scolded: "A bunch of sluts." After a pause, he asked: "Then what should we do now? Will the general really join the prince?"

Yuxi asked: "Do you think the general will seek refuge with the prince?"

Zijin said: "I can't say for sure, but Madam must persuade the general not to let him join the crown prince. The crown prince and the Song family are like snakes and rats, and if they go to the prince, Madam and the general will not be able to avenge their revenge in the future."

After hearing this, Yuxi said, "Do you still remember those two incidents?"

A sharp light flashed in Zijin's eyes: "I can't forget it, I will never forget it for the rest of my life. When I have a chance in the future, I must let that bitch Song experience the sufferings my wife has suffered?" Houyou ruined his wife's life. If it wasn't for my wife's great fortune to be able to subdue Yunqing, I don't know what it would be like now!

After saying this, Zi Jin looked at Yu Xi with a calm face, and asked, "Madam, don't you hate it?" She remembered that Madam told Fu Qingluo that she hated it.

Yuxi shook her head and said: "Don't talk about such meaningless things. Go and see, what is the origin of that person? How can he get the sign in the palace and Yuchen's personal letter?" If her guess is correct, It should be someone from the capital.

As Yuxi expected, it was indeed someone from the capital. However, this group of people encountered bandits and suffered heavy casualties. Those who are not dead have told them all about their purpose in coming to Yucheng. One of them knew that there was a letter from Yuchen to Yuxi, so he became suspicious.

The story of Yuxi's founding of Qingmingtang has long spread throughout the Northwest. Having a big reputation has its advantages and disadvantages. No, he was being watched. These people felt that if they could get a sum of money from Yuxi, they would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives, and the timid ones would starve to death, so they took risks and wanted to make a vote.

After Zijin heard this, her face turned dark.

Yuxi smiled, and asked: "What are they going to do? When they sent me a letter, hijack me? Ask me to give her money?" There were No. 34 guards inside and outside the Yunfu, and these bandits thought that these people They all eat dry rice.

After hearing this, Zijin said: "Madam, although this strategy is risky, it may not be impossible." If Yuxi is really taken hostage, then no matter how many people they have, it will be useless, and they can only use money to eliminate the disaster . After all, compared with money, the safety of the wife and the young master is more important.

Yuxi said: "Unless you're out of your mind, how could you come to my mansion and kidnap me for money? Use torture on him and make him tell the truth." This is completely here to die, since it is here , that must be a big conspiracy.

Seeing this, Xu Wu said: "I also think this is wrong, so I tortured him, and he couldn't bear it so he told the truth. This person said that he grew up in the capital, and then his family fell into poverty. His hometown is Ganzhou, which is why he can speak authentic Beijing movies. He confessed that someone had arrested his wife and children, and if he wanted to save his wife and children’s lives, he had to do one thing.” Said At this point, he deliberately paused, and said: "That is to assassinate Madam by taking the opportunity of delivering a letter." Xu Wu was shocked and broke out in sweat when he heard this. If you really see it, there will be an accident.

Yuxi frowned and said: "This method is too clumsy." The method is a little clumsy, but if she doesn't have such a high sense of alertness, she can't guarantee that nothing will happen if she really sees that person. After all, with a big belly now, his skills are not as sharp as before.

Xu Wu said: "Madam, I will definitely get the people behind the scenes out."

Yu Xi gave a grunt, and said: "I'm in Yucheng, and the only ones who offended me were Mrs. Qin and the Xu family. I think they have something to do with this incident!" The Xu family has always acted boldly, threatening It's really not a big deal for someone to kill her.

Xu Wu thought for a while and nodded and said: "I will ask someone to investigate seriously." After a pause, Xu Wu said: "I have to get someone to tell the general about this matter." He was not asking for Yuxi's opinion, but Say hello to her. You can't hide such a big matter from the general, otherwise when the general returns, he will be skinned.

Yuxi nodded and said: "You can deal with this matter." Such a big matter, you can't hide it even if you want to, so it's better to tell him earlier. And it would be good for Yun Qing to know that he had shown mercy to Qin Zhao's subordinates, and it was his wife, children and family who were harmed.

Xu Daniu watched Xu Wu come out from inside, stepped forward and asked, "Is Madam not scared?" He used to assassinate generals, but now he assassinates his wife, these people are really worthless. If you have the ability, stand up and do it with real knives and guns, doing all kinds of dirty things like this.

Xu Wu shook his head and said, "Not only is Madam not afraid, but she analyzed the matter in a logical manner!" Originally, he wanted to confuse the matter of extortion of money, and then told Yun Qing the truth. How do you know, Madam can see through it at a glance.

Xu Daniu asked curiously: "Why are you so smart?"

Xu Wu said: "Madam said that the Qin family and the Xu family should be behind the scenes." In fact, Xu Wu also suspected that it was the Xu family and the Qin family who were responsible. Madam has offended members of the Xu family, but she has never had any grudges with anyone else.

Xu Daniu said: "What should I do now?" How dare he kill his wife? Really impatient to live.

Xu Wu said: "If you can't get the evidence, it's useless to say anything." Based on the cunning of the Xu family, it is estimated that it will be very difficult to find evidence. (to be continued)
