"General Han, my master said that if you see this note, you must rush over to save her. If it's too late, she might be harmed. You must hurry! This matter is related to the Beian Marquis Mansion. If the general does not go, he will regret it." The maid said according to Chen Li's instructions, with an unconcealable nervousness on her face. After all, she was just a little servant. Seeing a high and mighty figure like Han Yu, who had a face full of indifference and murderous intent, it was impossible for her not to be afraid. The aura of the man in front of her was too strong.
Han Yu took a look at the note in his hand and saw that it was indeed Chen Li's handwriting, absolutely genuine.
Han Yu recognized that this was Chen Li's handwriting, not because he was very familiar with Chen Li, but because this woman's handwriting was too unique. It would be hard not to recognize it once you have seen it. Such handwriting was really ugly. Not only was it ugly, but there were also missing strokes, just like a person missing arms and legs. It also looked so ugly, how could it not leave a deep impression on people.
However, although the handwriting on the note was ugly and somewhat unsightly, Han Yu could still see clues from it. For example, when Chen Li wrote this note, she must have been nervous and wrote it in a hurry, so there were some small tremors on the strokes of the characters, and many of the characters were connected, but this made it even uglier. Such characters were difficult for others to imitate. In this respect, Chen Li was also considered a genius.
The corners of Han Yu's mouth twitched, revealing an expression that was unclear whether it was contempt or sarcasm. Looking at the little maid kneeling on the ground and shivering, Han Yu asked the little maid to go back first.
"I know what happened. You can go now." Han Yu said. He would not explain anything to a little maid.
The maid was quite distressed. Although she was very scared, she didn't know whether she had completed the task assigned by the young lady or not. If something really happened to the young lady, she was the young lady's personal maid and had followed the master out. The master would definitely not forgive her. Thinking of this, the maid suddenly became bolder and raised her head. She had an exceptionally pretty face, but also a bit of timidity, which made people want to pity her.
"General Han, I know that I am of humble status and cannot be seen in your eyes. I will go back like this. If anything happens to my young lady, I will be beaten to death by my master. I beg you to have mercy on me and save my young lady. I will be grateful!" As the maid spoke, she kowtowed to Han Yu. Because she kowtowed so hard, her forehead was a little bruised and covered with blood, and she looked very pitiful.
This maid was also scheming. She did this just to act pitiful and arouse the sympathy of the adult in front of her. Unfortunately, she met a cold man like Han Yu, who not only had no sympathy at all, but also saw through the maid's thoughts, frowned slightly, and was a little displeased.
"I'll say it again, leave immediately, otherwise even if your master doesn't beat you to death, I will punish you by military law and make you suffer more than death!" Han Yu said with disgust, with a hint of impatience in his tone. Towards women other than Su Wenyue, Han Yu never knew what sympathy was, let alone being soft-hearted. No matter how pitiful this maid was, he would not go against his principles and issued a final ultimatum.
The maid also wanted to take a gamble, but not only did it not work, but she also led to Han Yu's words. She was so scared that she staggered and broke out in a cold sweat. She didn't care about anything else and ran out the door, fearing that if she was a step late, she would be punished by Han Yu. Such a man is simply too scary, comparable to the Yama King of Hell.
After the maid left, Han Yu gave a few instructions to his confidant and rode to Liu's house. Although he didn't care about the life and death of Chen Li and the maid, he couldn't sit idly by since this matter was related to Bei'an Marquis's house. Even if it was a trap, he had to go and see. Moreover, he thought it was true. Maybe Chen Li had seen something and was afraid of being killed to silence her, so she came up with this idea and wanted him to solve the situation. However, this also indirectly showed that this matter was indeed related to him, and even someone was thinking about the Bei'an Marquis's house.
Moreover, the maid said that Liu Xiu and the others were involved in the same thing, and Han Yu felt something was wrong. Normally, when something happened, Liu Xiu would call him over to discuss it, but this time he only summoned his confidants to discuss it in secret, and he didn't even hear any news about it, which shows how secretive it was.
Han Yu was a smart man. Although he didn't understand why Liu Xiu did this at first, he understood it after thinking about it. Except that he didn't expect Yin Shi to be so cruel as to come up with such an idea to kill Bei'an Hou and his son, he had expected everything else.
The more Han Yu thought about it, the more worried he became. If Liu Xiu really did something bad to the Beian Marquisate, how would he deal with it? Should he pretend to be nice to him or turn against him? Neither of these was a good idea, and it would be best if such a thing didn't happen.
Han Yu rushed to Liu's Mansion at a very fast speed. As soon as he arrived at the door, servants of Liu's Mansion welcomed him in and took him to where Liu Xiu and others were gathered.
When Han Yu saw this situation, his mind turned again. This meant that Liu Xiu knew that he would come. Liu Xiu knew that it was naturally Chen Li who told him, which meant that Chen Li was no longer in danger, otherwise she would not have told Liu Xiu the news. And Liu Xiu was willing to let Chen Li go, so there were only two possibilities. One was that he did not intend to harm the Beian Marquis Mansion, or he had reached some kind of agreement with Chen Li.
No matter what, he had to see Liu Xiu to make a judgment. He would act according to circumstances. If Liu Xiu was really unkind and wanted to plot against him, then don't blame him for being rude. Although his wife said that Liu Xiu had taken that position in her previous life, things in this life were still undecided, and the future was still unknown. Any variables could change the result. It all depends on whether he wants to do it! So there was no need to limit himself because of this reason. The reason why he chose Liu Xiu was only a small part of what his wife said, and most of it was because of Liu Xiu's character, which made him feel that he could rely on him.
"Xiuqi, you are finally here. I can't wait any longer. Come quickly. I have something important to discuss with you." Liu Xiu said as soon as he saw Han Yu. He looked very anxious. On the one hand, he felt guilty for having had such an idea before, and on the other hand, he was really anxious to know Han Yu's thoughts.
"But what about the Bei'an Marquis Mansion?" Han Yu asked directly without beating around the bush.
When Liu Xiu heard Han Yu say this, he thought that what Chen Li said was indeed true, and he quickly put away his thoughts and said, "Yes, it is indeed this matter. Bei'an Marquis's Mansion has a great relationship with your wife. You already know the news. I came to you to discuss with you how to solve this matter and whether to send people to Chang'an City to rescue Bei'an Marquis and his son."
