Chapter 108 The Rumored Villain's Lackey
"Where is this place?" Liang Hui asked cautiously, wishing her feet were nailed to the ground.
Seeing that Liang Hui was scared, Liang Jinyu said, "I'll go in and take a look. You just wait outside."
Liang Hui said unhappily, "Before you came, you said you couldn't go in."
Liang Jinyu smiled helplessly and said, "Before I came here, I didn't expect that there would be no one outside. I'll be back soon."
Seeing Liang Jinyu enter the house, Liang Hui looked around, there was no one in sight, plus the sky was gloomy, there was a gloomy and cold atmosphere everywhere.
"What's going on?" Liang Hui covered her arm and was looking for a place to shelter from the wind, but she heard the sound of carriages and horses coming from afar.
After a while, a green carriage slowly drove over.
Liang Hui moved to the side and the carriage finally stopped in front of the house.
This shabby place is actually quite popular, Liang Hui muttered to herself, then she saw the car door open and a familiar figure got out.
"Sir, there's a child over there." The driver reminded in a low voice.
Rao Ji looked over here and saw Liang Hui's surprise. He then said something to the driver, and the driver walked towards Liang Hui.
Liang Hui touched the jade pendant around her waist, took a deep breath and straightened her back.
"Little girl, why are you alone in a place like this?" the driver asked with a smile.
Liang Hui took a step back, raised her chin and said, "I am not alone. Liang Jinyu is inside. I am waiting for her."
"Liang Jinyu?" The driver wondered who that was.
Rao Ji, who was far away, heard this and asked the driver to go back.
At the same time, inside the house.
Liang Jinyu did not go in, but just stood under the eaves and chatted with the coroner who was guarding the charity cemetery.
"The Cuihonglou didn't care, saying she ran away on her own and knew nothing about her death. The government couldn't find any clues either, and she had no relatives or friends, so according to the rules, she will be kept in the charity home for three days. If no one comes to claim the body, then we'll have to dispose of it."
The coroner said, and looked at Liang Jinyu: "Why, young lady, do you know the deceased?"
Before Liang Jinyu could answer, Rao Zhen and the coachman walked in.
The coroner said in surprise, "My charity house has never been as busy as it is today."
The driver came up to negotiate with the coroner, saying that he wanted to go and see Miss Huadie's body.
Rao Jun nodded slightly towards Liang Jinyu: "Miss Liang, we meet again."
"The Third Boss is here for Miss Huadie as well?" Liang Jinyu asked.
Rao Jun nodded: "This concerns the safety of our young master, I must come and take a look in person."
As he spoke, the coroner had already entered the house with the coachman.
"Miss Liang, why do you take this so seriously?" Rao Ji asked with a smile.
Liang Jinyu said, "Just think of it as me meddling in other people's business. The dead are the greatest. I knew her well, and I couldn't bear to see her body exposed in the wilderness, so I came to take a look."
"Miss Liang is kind-hearted." Rao Ji praised, but his tone was emotionless.
Liang Jinyu didn't care, after all, everyone had different positions.
As Liang Jinyu was speaking, she caught a glimpse of Liang Hui peeking out of the door, so she called out.
Liang Hui walked in looking around and caught a glimpse of the coffin parked in the corner of the yard. He wondered in his heart, what is this? It turns out to be a charity cemetery.
"Why did you come in? Didn't I tell you to wait outside?" Liang Jinyu asked.
Liang Hui said: "You all came in, I'm bored outside alone."
Seeing that she was not afraid, Liang Jinyu let her do as she pleased.
"Three cabinets."
The driver came out, glanced at Liang Jinyu, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"Just tell me." Rao Ji did not shy away from the question.
"She had several wounds on her body, but the fatal wound was the axe on her neck, which killed her in one blow. The murderer was very strong, eight feet tall, and his methods were extremely cruel."
Rao Chen thought thoughtfully: "It seems that they are not the same group of people."
The group of people who assassinated the young master several years ago were well-trained, and they mostly used long swords and hidden weapons. Axes are difficult to use and easy to be exposed, so not many people use them.
"If you wanted to kill her, why did you cut her body so many times?" the driver asked puzzled.
Rao Ji narrowed his eyes: "Maybe it's for torture."
The image of a tall, ruthless man holding an axe suddenly appeared before their eyes.
Liang Jinyu felt a chill down his spine just by listening to it. When Huadie killed Doctor Wu without hesitation, did he ever think that he would end up like that?
"Miss Liang, do you have any clues?" Rao Jie suddenly asked.
Liang Jinyu shook her head: "This is the first time I've met Miss Huadie, and I don't know much about her."
"She has a younger sister." Liang Hui suddenly interrupted.
Liang Jinyu asked: "How do you know?"
Isn't it said that there is no description of transformation into a butterfly in the book?
Liang Hui shrugged: "One time I was climbing over the wall to escape, and I happened to see her chatting with the maid in the backyard. She said she had a sister who was about the same age as her."
Rao Ji asked hurriedly: "What's her sister's name? Is her last name Gu?"
"Gu?" Liang Hui suddenly became excited, her eyes sparkling, "Why did you say your last name is Gu?"
Rao Ji stared at Liang Hui strangely, as if he wondered how a child could behave like this.
Liang Jinyu tried to smooth things over: "Yes, why did the third shopkeeper say his last name was Gu? Did you find out something?"
Rao Jun withdrew his gaze from Liang Hui and briefly told her about Huadie pawning her jewelry and sending a letter to Yang Su.
"Based on the content of the letter, we learned that she had a younger brother named Gu Jin, so I asked if her sister's surname was also Gu."
【Good fellow, they are actually the Gu brothers! These two are ruthless characters. One followed Liang Dingfang into the palace to be a eunuch. He did all kinds of dirty things, and there were at least dozens of people who died in his hands. And his younger brother Gu Chijie is even more talented. Not only did he seize the top spot in one move, but he was also a three-sided spy. If it weren't for the male protagonist's aura, he would have been killed by him long ago.】
When Liang Hui thought of this, she immediately came up with an idea.
"I don't know her sister's last name and she didn't tell me." Liang Hui shook her head, looking sincere.
At this moment, Liang Jinyu's heart was pounding. Finally, she got some information about Ding Fang.
Very good!
Rao Jie looked at Liang Hui, then at Liang Jinyu who was keeping her head down and saying nothing, and he felt that this mother and daughter were extremely weird.
"It's going to rain again, let's go home quickly." Liang Hui tugged at the corner of Liang Jinyu's clothes and urged her with blinking eyes.
Liang Jinyu concealed her excitement and said goodbye to Rao Ji.
Rao Ji came in a carriage, so he naturally walked faster than Liang Jinyu when he left. What's more, Liang Hui deliberately took his time, taking a rest after every two steps.
Seeing the carriage disappear at the intersection, Liang Hui breathed a sigh of relief and called Liang Jinyu: "Don't go, let's go back."
"Back to Yizhuang?" Liang Jinyu asked.
Liang Hui said, "Didn't you say you wanted to buy a coffin for Huadie? As the saying goes, it's best to send a Buddha to the west. I think you should just find a good feng shui site to bury her properly."
[In the original story, Liang Dingfang and Gu Jin met during the eunuch selection. This time, Liang Dingfang could not become a eunuch, so they could only create another opportunity for them to meet, and turning into a butterfly was the best opportunity.]
Thinking of this, Liang Hui was afraid that Liang Jinyu would be reluctant to spend the money, so she added, "She and I are acquainted, so I can also contribute part of the money."
Liang Jinyu was very happy that Liang Hui finally regarded them as his own people, and said with a smile: "What are you talking about? I still have this little money to give. Let's go back to Yizhuang."
...
Liang Jinyu had Huadie buried on the Red Maple Mountain outside the city and erected a tombstone to make it convenient for people to worship her in the future.
On the way back, Liang Hui kept thinking in her mind how to make the Gu brothers work hard for Liang Dingfang as in the book even though the original plot had already been changed.
Listening to Liang Hui's thoughts, Liang Jinyu also realized the importance of the Gu brothers to Yu Dingfang.
However, they don’t know whether the two brothers are still in Yang Su, let alone their exact location in Yang Su, so it’s useless even if they want to make friends with them.
