Chapter 757 A Special Letter

Tuoba Yu ran all the way, her eagerness was like a burning flame.

Those forgotten fragments of memory kept flashing in her mind, and those past scenes came like a tide.

When she came to the door of the room of the two Taoist priests Qingfeng and Mingyue, her breathing was a little rapid and her cheeks were slightly flushed.

When the two Taoist priests Qingfeng and Mingyue saw Tuoba Yu's anxious look, they immediately had a guess in their hearts.

They looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

"You look like this, it seems that you have recovered your memory?" Taoist priest Qingfeng spoke first, his voice was steady and gentle.

Tuoba Yu nodded vigorously, with excited tears flashing in her eyes.

"I remember, I remember everything." Her voice trembled a little, because she was so excited that she couldn't suppress it.

Taoist priest Mingyue smiled and nodded, "That's great. You can recover your memory, it must be the blessing of God."

Tuoba Yu took a deep breath and tried to calm his emotions.

Taoist Mingyue raised his chin slightly, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes: "Tell me, what is your identity?"

Tuoba Yu took a deep breath, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes, and slowly said: "I am one of the wives of the current Prime Minister Xiyu."

When these words came out, Taoist Qingfeng and Mingyue were both stunned.

They were full of disbelief.

Taoist Qingfeng frowned slightly, thinking in his heart: "I didn't expect that she would be Xiyu's wife."

Taoist Mingyue said: "We know Prime Minister Xiyu and have dealt with him. But we never thought that you were his wife."

Tuoba Yu looked at the reactions of the two Taoists and felt a little emotional.

She lowered her eyes slightly and said, "I never thought that I would recover my memory under such circumstances."

Master Qingfeng calmed down, his eyes fell on Tuoba Yu again, and said, "If that's the case, what are your plans for the future?"

Tuoba Yu raised his head, his eyes revealed determination: "I'm going to find Xi Yu."

Master Mingyue nodded slightly and said, "Okay, since you have recovered your memory, you should face your past. But this journey may not be peaceful, you have to be more careful."

Tuoba Yu looked at the two Taoists gratefully and said, "Thank you for your concern, I will be careful."

After that, she turned and left, her heart full of expectations and uneasiness for the future.

Tuoba Yu got on the horse's back and squeezed the horse's belly hard, and the horse rushed out like an arrow from a string.

The wind blew her hair, revealing her resolute face.

Thoughts surged in her heart, and she thought secretly: "From now on, I can no longer be willful."

Her hands holding the reins trembled slightly, because of her inner excitement and nervousness.

Along the way, she was running at lightning speed, and her mind kept recollecting all the past events.

Those past willfulness and mistakes were like heavy shackles, making her feel guilty and regretful.

But now, she wanted to break free of these shackles and start over.

In Youzhou City, the news that Xi Ping'an was ill spread quickly to every corner like a whirlwind.

People whispered to each other, talking about it, with worried and angry expressions on their faces.

"Who is so cruel that he wants to harm the prime minister's child? It's really infuriating!" An old man frowned and said indignantly.

His eyes were full of anger, as if he wanted to find the poisoner immediately and seek justice for Xi Ping'an.

A woman next to him also echoed: "Yes, the prime minister has done so many good things for our Youzhou, and someone dared to attack his child. This is simply unforgivable."

"This investigation is really like looking for a needle in a haystack. The poisoner must be hiding very deeply." A young man shook his head with a helpless look on his face.

Amidst all the discussion, the air seemed to become heavy.

Everyone prayed silently in their hearts, hoping that Xi Ping'an would recover soon and that the poisoner would be brought to justice as soon as possible.

Xi Yu sat in the study with a solemn look on his face.

A soldier knelt on one knee and said respectfully: "Mr. Prime Minister, I was patrolling outside the mansion just now, and suddenly saw a masked man rushing in. The masked man was dressed in black and his face could not be seen clearly. He only handed a letter to me and said that this letter was related to the illness of the Prime Minister's son. After saying that, he turned around and left, and I couldn't catch up with him."

Xi Yu looked at the letter in the soldier's hand and thought secretly in his heart. This letter came strangely, and I don't know who wrote it.

He carefully checked the letter, repeatedly checked the paper and the seal, and slowly opened it after confirming that there was no problem.

His eyes were focused and nervous, as if he was uncovering a major mystery.

He gently pulled out the letter and started to read it.

As his eyes moved on the letter, Xi Yu's expression became more and more serious.

Xi Yu tightly grasped the letter, his eyes wide open, his face instantly gloomy like the sky before a storm.

He slammed the table so hard that the teacups on the table jumped up.

"It's slander! It's outrageous!" Xi Yu was furious, his voice exploded in the study like thunder. His chest was heaving violently, and his anger burned into a raging fire in his heart. "How could Ouyang Linlin do such a vicious thing? This is clearly malicious slander!"

His eyes were full of anger, as if they could spit out flames. Xi Yu paced back and forth in the study, and the anger in his heart was difficult to calm down. "I must get to the bottom of it, and I can't let this unwarranted slander ruin the reputation of others."

It turned out that the handwriting on the letter was sloppy but with a malicious certainty.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, your son Xi Ping'an's illness must be caused by Ouyang Linlin. This girl is now pregnant, and she wants to be more valuable than her son. Naturally, she doesn't want Xi Ping'an to be alive. She is ruthless and will use any means to achieve her goals. I hope the Prime Minister will understand clearly."

Then, Xi Yu hurriedly walked towards Ouyang Linlin's room. As he walked, he was thinking in his mind: "Linlin is pregnant now. If I go to find her now, will it cause trouble for her?"

Thinking of this, his steps couldn't help but slow down, and a trace of hesitation and worry appeared on his face.

But soon, he gritted his teeth again and thought to himself: "No, let's go. This matter is very important. Linlin must consider who she has a grudge against."

So, he quickened his pace again and his eyes became firm.

Xi Yu gently pushed open the door of Ouyang Linlin's room and saw that in addition to Xiao Hong, there were several girls waiting on the side.

Xi Yu walked into the room, waved his hand and said, "You all should step aside."

When the girls heard this, they all bowed and left the room.

Ouyang Linlin looked at Xi Yu and asked curiously: "Husband, what is going on?"

There was a gentle smile on her face.

Xi Yu smiled slightly, walked to Ouyang Linlin and sat down, and said softly: "Linlin, I want you to read a letter, but no matter what you see, you must not get pregnant and be calm."

Ouyang Lingling also laughed and said coquettishly: "What on earth is it? My husband said it so mysteriously." She blinked her eyes, becoming more and more curious.

Then, Xi Yu carefully handed the letter to Ouyang Linlin.

Ouyang Linlin took the letter and glanced at it a few times before her face suddenly turned pale. Her hands trembled and she said angrily: "Slander, this is pure slander, I didn't do it!"

Her breathing became rapid.

Xi Yu quickly held Ouyang Linlin's hand and comforted him: "Linlin, don't be angry. I definitely believe you, otherwise I wouldn't have come. But, it stands to reason that you are pregnant now. I shouldn't have told you this, but it's not a trivial matter. You must think about who would do this if you have a grudge against you." Xi Yu's face was full of anxiety and worry, and his eyes were firm. .

Hearing what Xi Yu said, Ouyang Linlin's tense body gradually relaxed, she breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Husband, just believe in yourself, otherwise I really don't know what to do. But I really I can’t think of anyone I have a grudge with. I basically never leave the house or step outside the door. I stay in this yard every day, and the opportunities to make enemies with others are really rare.”

She frowned, with confusion and distress on her face, and confusion in her eyes.

After a while, she seemed to suddenly think of something, and said slowly: "Perhaps they are the remaining competitors of my father. When my father was alive, he inevitably offended some people in the business world. Maybe they had grudges, and now they have found him. Revenge comes when the opportunity arises.”

After hearing this, Xi Yu lowered his head and pondered. After a while, he raised his head and said, "I thought about it, maybe there is a possibility. Maybe it's not someone who has a grudge against you directly, but someone who wants to use this matter to Hit me and implicate you."

But Xi Yu frowned and said angrily: "This is simply a prank! You actually want to deceive me with such a clumsy method. The person who wrote the letter is so stupid!"

His heart was filled with disdain and anger, thinking that the other party underestimated his own judgment.

Xi Yu suddenly slapped his head hard and said regretfully: "Oh, I still shouldn't come over! I should also think about coming over. This probably has something to do with the former enemies of the Ouyang family."

His face was full of self-blame, and he secretly blamed himself for not thinking well.

Ouyang Linlin hurriedly held Xi Yu's hand and said softly: "Husband, don't blame yourself. The reason why you did this is because you care about me. I understand it in my heart." Her eyes were full of understanding and comfort. , with a gentle smile on his face.

Xi Yu looked at Ouyang Linlin with a smile and said softly: "Linlin, take a good rest and don't think too much."

His eyes were full of concern, and he patted her hand gently, then turned around and opened the door to let the serving girls in.

As soon as Xiaohong entered the door, she asked eagerly: "What on earth is the Prime Minister here for?"

Ouyang Linlin sighed slightly and said: "Xiaohong, don't be anxious. My husband brought a letter for me to read, but the content of the letter..."

Xiao Hong frowned and complained: "It's true, Prime Minister. You know it will cause trouble for the lady, so why do you come here?" Her face was full of dissatisfaction, and she was thinking about why the Prime Minister was so inconsiderate to the lady.

Ouyang Linlin shook her head helplessly and said, "Xiaohong, don't talk about your husband like that. He also wants to find out the truth of the matter. Besides, he also believes in me." There was a hint of helplessness in her eyes, but more importantly What’s more is the understanding of Xi Yu.

Although Xiaohong still complained a little in her heart, seeing Ouyang Linlin's expression, she finally pursed her lips and said nothing.

After Xi Yu left Ouyang Linlin's room, he came to Ganmei's room.

As soon as Ganmei saw him, she couldn't wait to ask: "Husband, how is the investigation going?"

Xi Yu said with a serious face: "We have already interrogated several girls in the room and the cook. Nothing has been found so far, but we have to continue the investigation. Don't worry, I will try my best not to give in, and It needs to be investigated through formal means.”

After hearing this, Gan Mei nodded slightly, her face relaxed a little, and said: "That's good, as long as we can get to the bottom of it and make everyone innocent." Although she was still a little worried, she heard Xi Yu felt relieved after saying this.

Xi Yu slowly walked to the bed and looked at Xi Ping'an who was lying down. He saw that the child's face was red and he had a high fever, but he was already asleep.

Xi Yu reached out and touched Xi Ping'an's forehead distressedly. Suddenly there was a particularly hot feeling in his hand, and his heart suddenly tugged.

Ganmei watched anxiously, tears welling up in her eyes.

Xi Yu turned to look at Gan Mei and comforted him softly: "Be at ease, Song Shuwen will definitely be able to successfully collect the medicine." His eyes were firm, trying to convey some confidence to Gan Mei, but his own heart was actually full of worry and worry. disturbed.

Xi Yu returned to the room, frowning and pacing back and forth in the room, thinking: "It's incredible. How could the person who wrote the letter insult my intelligence like this? Why did he do this? What's his intention? How could I wrongly accuse Ouyang Linlin because of such a clumsy letter? "

On the other side, Tuoba Yu was still on his way without stopping.

On this day, she came to Qingzhou.

Looking at the few expenses left in her pocket, she frowned and thought to herself: "What should I do? I have to find something to do quickly to earn some expenses."

But she stood in the bustling street with confused eyes, not knowing what she should do.

After a while, Tuobayu came to an inn for dinner.

She ordered a few dishes, but as soon as she finished ordering, she felt a little worried. She kept muttering in her heart: "Once I pay for the meal, I really don't have any expenses. What should I do next?"

She sat at the table, her brows knitted into a knot, her face full of sadness.

At this time, the waiter came over, looked at Tuobayu's troubled face, and asked enthusiastically: "Sir, what's wrong with you? Can you tell me, maybe I can help you think of a solution."

Tuobayu bit his lip and said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Brother, to be honest, I don't have much money left for this meal. I'll have it gone after paying for this meal. I want to ask if you can let me stay." A day’s work in this shop is enough to pay for this meal?”

After hearing this, the waiter looked embarrassed, scratched his head and said, "I have no say in this, but I can help you talk to the shopkeeper."

He looked at Tuobayu's pitiful appearance and felt a little unbearable.

Tuobayu stood up quickly and said gratefully: "Thank you so much, little second brother."

Her face was full of sincere gratitude, as if she had grasped a life-saving straw.

The waiter said to Tuobayu soothingly: "Girl, please wait here for a while, I will go to the backyard to find the shopkeeper." After that, he hurried to the backyard.

Arriving in the backyard, the shopkeeper Hou Jinwei was basking in the sun with his hands behind his back.

The waiter stepped forward quickly and said respectfully: "Shopkeeper, there is a girl in front of me who is in trouble. She is running out of money and wants to work in our store for a day to pay for her meal. How do you think we should handle this?"

The waiter had a somewhat cautious expression on his face, observing the shopkeeper's expression as he spoke.

When Hou Jinwei heard that it was a girl, he couldn't help but feel moved, but his face remained calm, thinking to himself: "It's a girl? I want to go and see."

So, he straightened his clothes and came to the hall unhurriedly.

When the waiter saw the shopkeeper coming, he immediately introduced Tuobayu to him: "The shopkeeper is this girl."

Tuobayu quickly stood up, blessed himself slightly, and said politely: "Shopkeeper, I'm sorry to bother you."

There was a trace of nervousness and expectation on her face, and she looked at Hou Jinwei sincerely.

The moment Hou Jinwei saw Tuobayu, his eyes straightened, and he was secretly happy: "This girl is so beautiful, she was sent to me by God. Since someone has sent it to me, why don't I accept it?"

With a seemingly friendly smile on his face, he said: "The waiter in the shop told me everything about the girl. I am willing to keep the girl for a few days to earn wages."

When Tuobayu heard this, a grateful smile immediately broke out on his face, and he said repeatedly: "Thank you, shopkeeper, thank you shopkeeper! As long as I can earn enough to travel home, I will stop working."

Hou Jinwei nodded and said, "Okay, just learn from the waiter, I'm going to the backyard." After saying that, he reluctantly glanced at Tuobayu again before turning around and leaving.

The waiter looked at Tuobayu with enthusiasm and said, "Girl, you can rest assured now! The shopkeepers have agreed to let you stay, so you can work here peacefully to earn money."

Tuobayu's eyes were full of gratitude and he said sincerely: "Little brother, thank you so much! If you hadn't helped me plead with the shopkeeper, I wouldn't have known what I would have done."

After saying that, she speeded up and pulled the remaining rice in the bowl into her mouth, wiped her mouth with her sleeve, stood up, and said: "Then let's start quickly. I will study hard and live up to the good intentions of the shopkeeper and you." ”

Afterwards, Tuobayu followed closely behind the waiter and began to study the various jobs in the store seriously.

Hou Jinwei, who was behind him, was elated at the moment, and a proud smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

He thought to himself: "My wife has been dead for a long time, and now I am single. God has really favored me and sent me such a beautiful girl."

In his mind, he kept imagining the scene with Tuobayu, as if everything had come true.

He must keep this girl here, and let her have something happen with him at night.

However, Tuoba Yu didn't know what he was thinking, and was still studying hard. (End of this chapter)
