Chapter 85: Xu Yinlin encounters a ghost, Yu investigates Xu Jingyang's death
After Qi Yanyu returned to the Duke's Mansion yesterday, she thought about it and decided to tell Song Wanyun about Jiang Yunzheng's kidnapping.
Yesterday, when Song Wanyun was inspecting several shops, she was hit on the head by Qin who came out of nowhere. Fortunately, it was only a minor injury and not serious.
In the chaos, Qin was taken away.
After hearing what Qi Yanyu said, Song Wanyun was shocked and lost her composure for a moment.
Qi Yanyu comforted Song Wanyun: "Qingying has also gone to see Sister Jiang, she will definitely be fine."
But unexpectedly, as the night passed, there was still no movement.
Wu Yu blamed herself for not protecting Jiang Yunzheng well. She searched for her outside the city all night last night, but she still hasn't returned.
Qi Yanyu was also panicking. Finally, early this morning, she received a message from Qingying: "Doctor Jiang was rescued by the prince last night and will be returning home today."
Everything is safe now.
Qi Yanyu and the people from the Song Mansion finally felt relieved.
After a while, Hou Yue came back covered in blood and brought back a piece of news.
Shi Jingtao also disappeared yesterday.
Hou Yue firmly believed that Jiang Yunzheng was not a woman who would easily get into trouble. She suspected that Shi Jingtao disappeared and was most likely killed by Jiang Yunzheng.
At this moment, Jiang Yunzheng came back covered in blood. Song Wanyun was terrified and hugged Jiang Yunzheng and started crying: "Yunzheng, if anything happens to you, mother will not live either."
Jiang Yunzheng quickly explained that it was someone else's blood, and asked Hou Yue to go and get Wu Yu back.
Song Wanyun burst into tears with heartache and quickly asked Jiang Yunzheng to go wash up and rest first.
In Nianyunzhu, Nanny Qin also looked anxious, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Jiang Yunzheng coming back.
Jiang Yunzheng felt warm in her heart.
After everything was tidied up, Jiang Yunzheng told everyone what happened last night.
There is a mixture of truth and falsehood in his words.
"Yesterday, after I rode away on horseback, someone was chasing me. I fled all the way out of the capital, but eventually fell off my horse near Lingxiao Mountain and passed out. I was eventually rescued by the prince."
As for Shi Jingtao, he has nothing to do with her, Jiang Yunzheng.
There is no evidence to prove that Shi Jingtao was killed by Jiang Yunzheng, there is no evidence and no witnesses.
If Ishida really had the courage to report to the police, would he also have the courage to confront Qi Yunshen?
Jiang Yunzheng's lips curled up in a hint of sarcasm.
Jiang Yunzheng was rescued by Qi Yunshen, and now she accidentally participated in today's arrest of King Zhou, which can be regarded as a meritorious service.
Emperor Jingming's rewards were all brought into the Song Mansion in the evening, and everyone who came and went was envious.
Soon, the Xu family, who had received the news, also came to the Song Mansion and said that Jiang Yunzheng must bring more guards with her when she goes out in the future.
After the Xu family left, Jiang Yunzheng mentioned that she would go to the East Palace to treat the prince tomorrow.
Hou Yue said to Jiang Yunzheng in a shy and arrogant manner, "Doctor Jiang, do you need anyone to protect you tomorrow?"
Jiang Yunzheng narrowed her eyes slightly: "What is your relationship with the prince?"
Hou Yue's expression froze, and he touched his nose. "Doctor Jiang, do you really not need it?"
Jiang Yunzheng smiled faintly: "Aren't you afraid that the people in the East Palace will recognize you this time?"
Hou Yue grinned. "I can disguise myself. My disguise skills are among the top two in Beijing. No one can be ranked first."
Jiang Yunzheng said slowly, "I haven't told you that you know anyone from the East Palace."
The Crown Princess died early, and the Crown Prince had no concubines or concubines. The Crown Prince did not like Hou Yue, and there was no rumor of any strange woman in the Eastern Palace.
The most likely possibility is that Hou Yue was sent by King Yu to monitor the prince and worked as a maid in the Eastern Palace.
Hou Yue stared at Jiang Yunzheng in disbelief. "Good on you, you're cheating me again!"
Jiang Yunzheng pursed his lips: "All is fair in war."
Now that things had come to this, Hou Yue simply told him everything.
It was true that she was King Yu's person. After staying in the Eastern Palace for a year, Hou Yue was unable to poison the prince and decided not to be King Yu's spy anymore. Later, King Yu sent people to hunt down Hou Yue, and Hou Yue was rescued by Jiang Yunzheng.
Hou Yue snorted: "I'm going anyway!"
This is a legitimate opportunity to see the prince, and she can't miss it.
After dinner, Jiang Yunzheng instructed Hou Yue to do something.
After hearing this, Hou Yue's face showed excitement, and he looked like he was ready to play with cattle and sheep.
Jiang Yunzheng: "...Be careful at night."
Hou Yue: "Don't worry, I'll do the job."
At night, Jiang Yunzheng lay in bed. Qi Yunshen was already suspicious of her, so it would be difficult for her to approach him and poison him...
That night, it rained heavily in the capital.
Xu Mansion.
Xu Suyuan was awakened in the middle of the night. The wound on his heart was healing, and the itchiness from the growing flesh made him want to scratch that place. Now it was raining heavily at night, and the wound on his chest was causing waves of pain. Xu Suyuan was no longer sleepy in the second half of the night.
Xu Suyuan couldn't sleep, and some people couldn't sleep either.
At this time, the sound of rain also made Xu Yinlin feel irritated, as if a fire was burning in her limbs. She sat in the wheelchair specially customized for her by Xu Jiashu and took a fresh air under the eaves.
At this moment, a white figure floated past at an extremely fast speed from not far away.
Xu Yinlin's face gradually turned pale, the heat in her body faded away, and she felt a chill.
Xu Suyuan, who was nearby, also saw the scene.
He narrowed his eyes, and the figure disappeared quickly after floating past.
Xu Yinlin's body kept shaking, and she pointed in the direction where the white shadow disappeared.
Soon, Xu Suyuan appeared in Xu Yinlin's sight. He walked into the yard. Xu Yinlin was frightened and made a strange sound in her throat.
Xu Yinlin looked at Xu Suyuan with her two eyes, which were burned at different heights, and her expression was even more frightened than when she saw the white shadow.
"...Xu Jingyang is back, she came to see me..." Xu Yinlin kept shaking her head, and the movement was so big that her short body fell directly under the eaves. She was soaked by the rain and covered in mud.
Xu Suyuan looked at the scene coldly, he hadn't done anything yet.
So what?
A little maid hid behind the door and covered her mouth tightly.
After Xu Suyuan left, he carried Xu Yinlin back to the wheelchair.
Early the next morning, the news of the haunted Xu Mansion spread to every corner of the mansion.
When Yu was dressing up early in the morning, a maid came to report the matter.
"Madam, how about we invite a Taoist priest to come over..."
Yu shouted, "Shut up. We haven't figured out whether it's true or not."
These old women all had pale faces. As the saying goes, if you don't do anything wrong, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door.
The problem is that they have done a lot of bad things to Xu Jingyang!
Everyone in the mansion was in panic for a while.
But Yu thought, Jingyang has already returned home, why doesn’t he come to see her as his mother?
Yu still felt something was wrong. She thought for a moment and asked someone to call her property manager.
In the past few years, some of the maids and old women she trusted returned to their hometowns to enjoy the company of their grandchildren, some left home to get married, some became sick or died. Only Nanny Qin, who had been with her the longest, was still there, but she had long since become a blind woman with her mind lost.
Thinking of this, Yu became even more suspicious, as if there was a thread leading her.
The manager of Yu's property is named Zhao, who was brought from Yu's natal family. Manager Zhao is deeply trusted by her and is often away from home, making it very convenient for him to investigate these matters.
Yu said, "Go and investigate Jing Yang's death. I want the truth."
Manager Zhao was surprised and replied, "Yes, ma'am."
