After hearing what the other party said, Zhu Yuewu only glanced at Mrs. Zhao indifferently. He recognized who the person at his feet was, but he still said with extreme indifference, "Throw her into a mass grave."
Hearing Zhu Yuewu's words, the man in black just said yes, and then he found a sack and put Mrs. Zhao in it and carried her away.
At the same time, Zhu Yuewu also walked out of the pavilion.
It wasn't until the two of them had walked for a long time that a splashing sound came from the lotus pond under the pavilion.
Then there was the sound of someone peeling off lotus leaves and struggling to separate the water.
When the man swam forward and landed, people discovered that this man was actually the handsome man that Mrs. Zhao had been looking for but could not find.
At this time, Brother Jun's clothes were soaked through, and his hair was even wet on his face and body.
It was clearly June, and the sun was high in the sky, but Brother Jun seemed to be frozen to death.
As soon as he landed ashore, his whole body was shaking, and his teeth were chattering uncontrollably.
He didn't dare to stay here anymore, ignoring the lotus pods on the shore. He turned around and wanted to run, but his feet were so weak that he only stumbled with his left foot and right foot from time to time while running.
He didn't know where he was going, but as he was running, a pair of hands suddenly touched his shoulder.
Brother Jun was immediately frightened and screamed loudly.
"Don't kill me! Don't kill me! Spare your life, good man!"
Hearing Brother Jun's words, the man just said contemptuously, "Who wants to kill you! Didn't I tell you not to run around?"
After hearing the man's words, Brother Jun, who was lying on the ground, dared to raise his head and glance at the man. After seeing clearly who the other person was, Brother Jun breathed a sigh of relief.
When he saw the other person, it was like seeing a life-saving straw.
But at the moment, he didn't know the identity of this person and the person who killed Mrs. Zhao in the pavilion just now, so he didn't say anything in the end.
But the young man just said with an angry expression, "Didn't I tell you not to run around? Why did I just walk away for a moment? You two are gone!"
After the scolding, the young man just asked, "By the way, where is your aunt?"
After hearing the young man's question, Brother Jun naturally couldn't tell the truth.
He could only say helplessly, "Auntie, she went to the toilet."
Hearing Brother Jun's words, the young man was not suspicious. He just handed the bag of money directly into Brother Jun's hands.
Brother Jun looked at the white money, and naturally he felt a little happy in his heart, but the joy seemed not that obvious.
After all, the scene in the garden just now shocked him too much.
Although he almost killed his aunt, he was actually more angry at that time. But when that person killed her aunt just now, he just raised the knife and dropped it.
That method and behavior made Brother Jun tremble in his heart just by looking at it.
The most important thing is that he knew very well that if he had been discovered at that time, his fate would be similar to that of his aunt.
At this time, he was not in the mood to stay here any longer. After all, those two people were from this mansion. Judging from the names, one of them seemed to be the second young master. He heard some words that he shouldn't have heard. Although he didn't know what they were. What did the words mean, but he knew that what he heard was always not a good thing.
So the only thing he can do now is to stay as far away from here as possible.
After taking the boy's money, Brother Jun only thanked the boy, and then he turned around and wanted to leave.
However, the young man said, "Wait a minute!"
Hearing the young man's words, Brother Jun couldn't help but stop in his tracks.
He asked fearfully, "Young Master, do you have anything else to ask?"
Hearing Brother Jun's words, the young man just said, "You are going in the wrong direction. If you want to go out, go that way. Your aunt must go out with you."
Hearing the young man's words, Brother Jun just nodded and said yes.
Then he
Then he and Brother Jun could only wait for each other's aunt to come out.
Not wanting to wait for a long time, Brother Jun's aunt did not come out. The young man couldn't help but asked impatiently, "Why doesn't your aunt come out? What time has it been? She must have fallen into the toilet, right?" ?」
Hearing what the young man said, Brother Jun didn't say a word.
The young man looked at Brother Jun dissatisfied and said, "Why are you still standing there! Hurry up and call your aunt out!"
After hearing what the young man said, Brother Jun could only shuffle forward.
However, after only walking a few steps, Brother Jun noticed that the second young master of the two familiar people seemed to be approaching the young man.
Thinking of his aunt's fate, Brother Jun couldn't help but was so frightened that he hid again.
He was thinking, wouldn't this second young master want to kill someone again and silence him?
But Brother Jun waited here for a while, but he couldn't find the possibility of killing and silencing him.
Instead, Zhu Yuewu couldn't help but take the initiative to talk to the young man and said, "Chun'an, didn't you go out with the eldest young master just now? Why are you here again now?"
After seeing clearly that the person coming was Zhu Yuewu, the young man's face was full of defense, "Our young master forgot something, he asked me to come back to get it!"
He barely even blinked before telling such a lie.
Hearing the young man's words, Zhu Yuewu could not help but whisper, "Since you are taking something, what are you doing here?"
Hearing Zhu Yuewu's words, the young man just whispered, "Of course I'm waiting for someone. I asked the boy to get my things for me."
After saying this, the young man only said sarcastically, "What? Do you want the second young master to wait with me?"
Hearing the young man's words, Zhu Yuewu laughed and shook his head.
"I don't have the time to spend time here with you."
After saying this, Zhu Yuewu left.
It wasn't until Zhu Yuewu walked away that Brother Jun walked out of it with a grunt.
The young man complained impatiently, "Why are you walking so slowly? What's wrong? Did you fall into the pit too?"
Hearing the boy's complaint, Brother Jun immediately shook his head.
The young man didn't expect him to deny it seriously. The young man couldn't help but feel that what Brother Jun said was very ridiculous. At the moment, he just said to Brother Jun, "Where is your aunt?"
Facing the young man's question, Brother Jun only hesitated and said, "Auntie...she just went out!"
At this time, the young man also felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this handsome guy, so he immediately asked cautiously, "Where has she gone? Where has she gone?"
Facing the boy's question, Brother Jun only whispered, "He ran away! He's back!"
Naturally, these words cannot convince the young man. What kind of place is this? This is the Zhu Mansion that occupies half of the city.
Let’s not talk about Zhu’s residence. Ordinary people have no one to guide them. There is a high probability that they will not be able to find the way out at all the first time.
Moreover, this is the prefect's mansion, so how can people come in as they please and leave as they please?
Therefore, the young man just sneered and said, "You are basically lying!"
Brother Jun immediately knelt down and said, "I'm really not lying. In fact, I don't know where my aunt has gone!"
However, at this time, the young man did not believe Brother Jun's words at all. How could a person who could be Zhu Zanxun's confidant be such a heartless person?
Brother Jun's moral character is obviously not enough in front of the young man.
The young man sneered, "If you don't tell the truth! Okay! Come here! Take him to me and wait for the young master to come back. I'll see if you tell the truth!"
As soon as the words fell, a group of people suddenly appeared, and then they just pressed Brother Jun to the ground. After taking care of Brother Jun, they quickly tied him up with ropes.
The young man continued to sneer and said, "I think you're weird, you brat, you're not just sneaking around in our house, are you?"
At this time, Brother Jun was not sure whether the young man had any relationship with the second young master, so he did not dare to tell the truth. He could only keep begging for mercy.
"Young master, I really didn't steal anything from the house. I just accidentally fell into the water. I really don't know where my aunt is! Just be generous and let me go! If you still don't believe me, can you search me? ! Or I don’t want these eighty taels of silver anymore! I beg you, please let me go!”
But how could the young man miss Brother Jun's begging for mercy?
He just felt that Brother Jun didn't say a word of truth.
Since he refused to speak honestly, the young man naturally didn't want to let him go.
"If you don't want to tell the truth, then go to jail and stay there!"
After saying this, the young man paid no attention to Brother Jun. He only asked people to take Brother Jun away. However, he was worried that Mrs. Zhao was an insider of Brother Jun. Both of them were unkind people, so The young man only led a group of people to search for Mrs. Zhao's traces.
After all, the Zhu family is now in trouble. At this critical moment, servants like them should be more careful.
However, the young man's search was destined to be in vain. After all, the man had been put in a sack and thrown into a mass grave.
How could the young man find Mrs. Zhao?
After searching to no avail, the young man could only return without success.
In the afternoon, when Zhu Zanxun came back from the Yamen, the young man immediately came to greet him.
"Master, you are finally back."
After hearing the young man's words and looking at his expression, Zhu Zanxun knew that this child must have something to say to him.
So he just said to the young man, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Facing Zhu Zanxun's words, the young man just whispered, "Sir, do you still remember Jixiang's mother and her cousin who came to you to borrow money today?"
Hearing the young man's question, Zhu Zanxun nodded, "What happened to them?"
When Zhu Zanxun asked about it, the young man also told Zhu Zanxun clearly what happened today.
"Sir, it's like this. When Jixiang's mother and her cousin came to find you, didn't you agree to lend them eighty taels?"
Zhu Zanxun nodded, saying that the young man was right.
"What? They raised the price again and the lion opened his mouth?" Because Mrs. Zhao gave Zhu Zanxun a feeling of greed, so Zhu Zanxun could only think of such a result.
The young man still shook his head when he heard this.
