Chapter 161: Fu Qingyin's Follow-up
Hao Mengye filled Fu Qingyin's cup with fresh tea.
He also glanced at the crowd below and couldn't help asking, "Sir, why do you want to kill Wu Da Lian?"
Fu Qingyin slid without covering it, his voice was cold and calm: "Shouldn't he be killed?"
Hao Mengye nodded: "He deserves to be killed."
"He is not important, but you have to know that it is often the small pawns that bring down the big guys."
Hao Mengye sneered: "Qi Mubai is not a big shot."
Fu Qingyin looked up at him, Hao Mengye was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.
"You mean, the prince?"
Fu Qingyin smiled, his eyes fell on Yu Shengsheng: "Who it is depends on the results of Yongguang Temple's investigation."
"I want to use her, and I don't like to owe her a favor, so I'll repay her first."
"A scum like Wu Da Lian should die the day he enters the capital. He is destined to die. Since it is destined, why not let me send him off so that he can see the King of Hell sooner and be reborn as a beast in the next life."
Hao Mengye: "..."
"You are being so secretive. Miss Yu may not know about it. How can she appreciate your kindness if she doesn't know?"
"When did I need others to appreciate my work?"
He frowned slightly: "Why are you getting dumber and dumber?"
Hao Mengye lowered his head and said nothing, thinking, am I stupid? You do things completely differently from before, making it hard to figure out. I've said before that this little girl is not easy to give to.
Fu Qingyin put down the teacup: "Are you cursing me in your heart?"
Hao Mengye raised his head in shock: "I would never dare to do that."
…
Yu Shengsheng tilted her head and looked through the curtain at a window on the second floor across the street. She always felt that someone was watching her from there.
She is naturally perceptive, so it shouldn't be an illusion.
Who could it be? Is it related to Wu Da Lian?
Just as he was thinking, Yu's voice became shrill: "Nonsense, I just don't know this person, he is not my lover."
At this moment, someone outside called out, "The prefect is here!"
The people who had been noisy just now immediately quieted down and moved to the left and right.
The prefect Wang came in with the detectives.
Yu Shengsheng also took a few steps back and pulled Jin Baobao behind him.
My eyes accidentally glanced at the window again - Hmm? When did a white handkerchief appear? It wasn't there just now.
When Qi Mubai saw the officials coming, his heart tightened. When he saw that it was the prefect himself, he became even more nervous.
He walked down the steps quickly and nodded, saying, "Prefect Wang, I am Qi Mubai's student, and I am honored to meet you."
Wang Fuyin looked at him for a few times, his eyes swept over his bandaged arm and said, "Qi Zhuangyuan, your name is well-known. I saw you propose to Princess Rongyang in the palace and ride on horseback in the parade."
"The champion has great grace."
Wang Fuyin smiled, but what he said made Qi Mubai feel uncomfortable. He was not sure whether Wang Fuyin had good intentions or bad intentions.
Wang Fuyin didn't allow him to think too much, and asked directly: "Just now I heard outside that this person is from the same hometown as you? Do you recognize him?"
"I don't recognize him!" the mother and son said in unison.
Wang Fuyin looked at Yu and said, "Who is this..."
Wang Fuyin was of similar age to Yu, and looked elegant and wise. Although he was not wearing an official uniform, he had an extraordinary aura as the capital's official.
When Yu saw him, she lowered her voice unconsciously, leaned forward and said, "I am Mu Bai's biological mother, Yu Xiaoruan."
Her behavior was delicate and artificial, and her voice was shrill, making her look like a little girl.
Wang Fuyin subconsciously took a step back.
Jin Baobao asked, "Was Xiao Ruan a singer before? What a great voice!"
Yu raised her eyebrows: "I was a famous person in the opera troupe..."
Before she could finish her words, she saw Qi Mubai staring at her with fiery eyes.
She swallowed her words again.
Wang Fuyin cleared his throat, stroked his beard and said, "Come here, check the body to see if there is any document proving the identity."
Qi Mubai knew clearly that there was definitely no identity spies. As soon as they arrived in the capital, all the identity spies were taken away by him.
I’m afraid someone will break the rules and do something bad, which will cause trouble.
The constable went over and checked the body first, then turned it over.
"Sir, I have discovered something."
Wang Fuyin looked down and saw that the hand of Wu Da Lian that was originally pressed under his body was exposed, and he was holding something tightly in his hand.
"Sir, he has something in his hand, maybe it's a clue."
Wang Fuyin nodded: "Quick, take it out."
The constable carefully pried open Wu Da Lian's hands, revealing a pink handkerchief inside.
He took the handkerchief and handed it to Wang Fuyin with both hands.
The prefect of Wangfu unfolded the handkerchief.
Everyone stared with eyes wide open, watching intently.
Dozens of pairs of eyes noticed a small fish embroidered on the corner of the pink handkerchief.
Qi Mubai's eyes narrowed and he clenched his hands.
Yu beside him also turned pale.
A low murmur arose.
"What does this little fish mean?"
"It must be a mark."
Yu Shengsheng didn't expect that the handkerchief in Wu Dayian's hand was Yu's handkerchief!
Her heart was pounding and she looked around quickly, multiple thoughts popping into her mind.
Yesterday in front of the ancestral hall, Wu Da Lian changed his words. Fu Qingyin appeared later and asked her if the play was good. She guessed that Wu Da Lian’s matter was related to Fu Qingyin.
Not only did Wu Da Lian change his rhetoric, he also dragged Yu into the trouble, getting himself into trouble.
I thought this matter was over, but today...
Could this be the follow-up given by Fu Qingyin?
She subconsciously looked at the window, and the white handkerchief was gone.
Wang Fuyin held the handkerchief and looked at Yu Shi with a straight gaze: "What was your name just now?"
Yu stammered, "My slave..."
Qi Mubai grabbed her arm and said, "Mother, you are not a slave, you are a lady."
Yu swallowed her saliva.
Qi Mubai smiled: "Sir, my mother..."
Wang Fuyin's tone remained unchanged: "Qi Zhuangyuan, let her speak for herself, okay?"
Yu didn't dare to look at the handkerchief: "My...my surname is Yu."
Wang Fuyin asked again: "Have you ever seen this handkerchief?"
"No!" Yu immediately denied, blurting out, "I don't know him, I really don't know him, how could I have seen his handkerchief?"
"This is a woman's handkerchief, not one for a man. Someone must have given it to him."
Wang Fuyin's every word was clear: "Yu is homophonic with Yu. Although Yu is rare, it is not an uncommon surname. Many embroiderers in embroidery rooms will also encounter customers with this surname. Generally, they will choose a homophonic surname and embroider a fish."
Yu Shengsheng was secretly surprised. She didn't expect that Wang Fuyin knew so much about these things.
It seems that being a parent official really needs to have some skills.
This time, the Yu family will not be able to escape.
Yu Shengsheng sneered silently, his eyes as cold as ice - Qi Mubai, we have been mortal enemies since the moment you used Zhuo Ge'er.
I will not miss any opportunity for revenge.
Zhuo Ge'er is Grandma Wu's weak spot.
The Yu family is also from Qi Mubai.
Yu was speechless when asked: "I... I really don't know, and I don't know him."
Wang Fuyin nodded and said, "Okay, then please take out the handkerchief you usually use, Madam."
