But he had already sent people to investigate Zhao Ruojin. She was just an ordinary person from Beijing. How could two delicate young girls have such courage and ability?
He was somewhat skeptical.
However, in this world, it's better to believe something exists than to believe it doesn't.
Besides, Zhao Ruojin hasn't been obtained yet, so Tong Mingshan certainly wouldn't miss such a good opportunity.
"Go, bring Zhao Ruojin here to me. Bring plenty of people with her, and keep a low profile so no one notices," Tong Mingshan instructed his men.
If He Zhong isn't good enough, then we'll replace him with another group of people.
Even if they know how to use poison, so what? Can two little girls be more powerful than the people he sent out?
"Send more men to capture Xu Jinling and his nephew," Tong Mingshan ordered.
"Yes, sir!" All the yamen runners went out and began searching everywhere for Xu Jinling and his nephew, but they only told the outside world that they were searching for fugitives.
Su Ruojin slept quite soundly, and Yanluo felt sorry for her young lady sleeping so late, so she didn't wake her up. She slept until almost noon.
When Yanluo saw that she was awake, she helped her wash up and then brought her food.
"Sit down and eat with us." Su Ruojin knew that Yan Luo probably hadn't eaten either.
The rule that mistresses and maids should not sit together at meals had long since disappeared between her and Yanluo, unless Xiao Yanchu and others were present, in which case Yanluo would still adhere to this rule.
Yan Luo sat down and served Su Ruojin rice and dishes.
“Miss, Commander Liu reported earlier that he has found a courtyard in the suburbs and the person has been transferred from the mortuary. He will go there first to keep an eye on things.”
Yanluo greatly admired the young lady's prediction. Commander Liu had mentioned that many constables in Yulin City had been searching for fugitives last night, but no one had searched the mortuary. Xu Jinling and his nephew, on the contrary, had a good night's sleep.
"Okay, after you finish eating, let's go take a look."
After what happened at Guanhe Tower yesterday, Su Ruojin knew that Tong Mingshan would not let it go. To avoid trouble, she and Yanluo disguised themselves as men again and left the inn.
For safety's sake, I secretly followed behind them to prevent anyone from tailing them.
The two soon arrived at Qingyan Village.
Seeing the uncle and nephew lying unconscious on the bed, Su Ruojin stepped forward to check their pulses. Their pulses were still somewhat unstable, and they had high fevers. Their injuries were too severe.
Xu Jinling, in particular, had already been poisoned and then suffered such torture. If he hadn't rescued the person yesterday, he might not have survived.
"Yanluo, you come here." Su Ruojin handed the acupuncture treatment over to Yanluo, letting her practice more.
While Yanluo was administering acupuncture, Su Ruojin handed Liu Jing a piece of paper, saying, "Have your men secretly search for this person throughout the city."
Su Ruojin gave Liu Jing a portrait of Su Wenzhou, saying, "Remember, you must not tell anyone."
"yes."
Although Su Ruojin didn't say it, Liu Jing guessed that the person in the portrait must be General Su.
After giving her instructions, Su Ruojin watched Yan Luo perform acupuncture, occasionally offering some pointers.
After Yan Luo finished preparing the medicine, Su Ruojin wrote out another prescription and handed it to the person who stayed behind to take care of Xu Jinling and his nephew.
In this situation, they dared not ask the villagers to come and help take care of the child, so they could only have Liu Jing's men watch over the child for the time being.
Su Ruojin and Yanluo returned to the city. After thinking for a while, she took Yanluo for a walk around the city, hoping to try her luck and see if she could find any more clues related to her third brother.
After wandering around for a while without finding anything, Su Ruojin took Yanluo to a restaurant for a bite to eat. Just as they were about to return to the inn, they were stopped by someone.
Upon seeing who it was, Su Ruojin was slightly taken aback.
