"Then do you have any brothers and sisters at home?" Ah Hui changed to a different kind of black tea and poured it for Wang Wu.
The fragrance in the house is rising continuously.
A lingering aroma filled the room.
The aromatic atmosphere makes people feel comfortable and relaxed.
Wang Wu didn't think much about it: "It turns out there was. My family was poor, so I gave them away."
"What about your parents?"
"Dead, all dead." Wang Wu sighed: "I haven't seen them very often."
Ah Hui asked casually, as if asking casually, just to let Wang Wu get used to it.
After the two answered three or four questions.
It’s time to get to the point.
Ah Hui was about to ask the most important trap question.
The men he sent out came back.
The man had a slightly anxious look on his face.
Looking at the other people in the room, he was full of tangles and hesitations.
Standing outside the house without coming in, his eyes trembled slightly and looked at Ah Hui solicitously.
Ah Hui frowned and took a deep look at Wang Wu.
How could it be such a coincidence that when he was preparing to ask a few basic questions and was about to ask the most critical question, he was interrupted.
It was as if something was protecting him.
Is it possible that he is really the target?
Ah Hui remained calm and waved his hand to let people in.
Wang Wu is important, but Chu Yue is even more important.
If you report it now, you should have the letter.
The man hesitated for a moment and then ran in.
Ah Hui glanced at his face and it seemed that things were not going well.
He turned his head to look at Wang Wu and said calmly: "I have something to deal with. You go and guard outside the door."
"Master Del, I will guard the door well and not even a mosquito will let in!" Wang Wu immediately turned around and went out.
He understands that when adults speak, he is not qualified to listen.
Wang Wu ran and crawled, as if to prove his loyalty.
After the figure disappeared from sight, Deyou quickly spoke:
"Liu Da, I have inquired about the person you are looking for. Someone in the house did go out last night. It was the wife of the Minister of Rites..."
Minister of Rites?
Ah Hui thought about it seriously, and he remembered that this person relied entirely on his connections with his mother's family to achieve success.
He Hancai was the general of the left.
Like Prime Minister Chen, he is also an auxiliary minister.
Although the right to speak is not as high as that of Prime Minister Chen, they are still considered to be at the top.
If he remembered correctly, Mrs. He, the current wife of the Minister of Rites, was the daughter of He Hancai.
Back then, she fell in love with Ji Nenglai and wanted to marry him. This is how she became the Minister of Rites.
That being said, everything makes sense.
Ji Nenglai was a scholar who worked his way up the career ladder, without any power or influence.
I have been working hard at the bottom through my own efforts.
Suddenly, the great luck came into the eyes of the eldest lady.
Of course there is no reason to refuse.
Mrs. He was his greatest support in his official career.
So it can be explained why this illegitimate daughter was left behind.
Ah Hui narrowed his eyes, his whole body covered with frosty smoke.
It's not about staying, but when I'm old enough to come to Beijing, I'm afraid I'll already have a fiancée at home.
Maybe they were already married, or maybe they had a wedding.
It's a pity that he was from a low background and couldn't provide help, so he was abandoned like this.
No matter what method was used to suppress this matter.
Whether Mr. Ji let it go on purpose, or the woman concealed it on purpose.
This child was still born.
She is Chu Yue’s current identity——
A lonely girl who comes looking for relatives.
The fiancée back then might have been ill-fated, or she might have had an unfavorable birth, or she might have encountered something later. In short, she died, leaving the girl with the identity of Chu Yue to live in Beijing now with that worthless jade pendant. Looking for relatives.
Everything works.
The jade pendant is not valuable because when Ji Nenglai was not Master Ji, he just had no money.
This is the only evidence that proves the connection between the two.
There are still many details that have not been sorted out, but they are no longer important.
Ah Hui had no interest in knowing what happened back then.
The most important thing for him now is how to save Chu Yue.
If Chu Yue hadn't died yet and she hadn't reopened, then there would still be a chance.
If it reopens...
Didn't they have a chance to meet...
Ah Hui showed a little irritability.
If this is the case, it will be troublesome.
After all, he is the Minister of Rites...
My wife is the daughter of General Zuo...
Neither Mr. Ji himself, nor Mrs. He, nor even Mr. He would let Chu Yue survive, right?
Ah Hui frowned suddenly, exuding a sinister aura, and narrowed his eyes as sharp as an eagle.
"Then what?"
Deyou was shocked by his momentum, and Zhuan'er hurriedly confessed: "I have found out clearly that Mrs. He went out at night when she first got into trouble. They arranged a carriage and set off from the back door of Ji Mansion and went straight to the west of the city. suburbs."
"The area is sparsely populated, and no specific information has been found yet. So I'm not sure where I went. When there was news again, it was already half an hour later."
"After confirming who has left the house, I will come back and tell you."
"But Liu Da, if everyone hadn't been keeping an eye on time-travelers recently, it would have been really hard to find out if Mrs. He acted so cautiously..."
"Why are you suddenly asking about this?"
Deyou looked worried.
He didn't know what happened to Guard Liu, why he gradually became so strange.
Ah Hui was thoughtful after listening.
In the western suburbs of the city, that was the inn where Chu Yue stayed.
They were indeed looking for her, and their purpose was very clear.
If Chu Yue hadn't died...
Now in Ji Mansion.
Thinking of this, Ah Hui immediately stood up.
His face changed slightly, his expression was complicated, and he raised his legs and walked out of the hospital.
He and Deyou were both bodyguards, and Deyou was the original owner's best brother, so he was relieved to leave the matter to him.
Ever since he became 'sick', Deyou was the only one who was still willing to hang out in front of him.
This person is a trustworthy person and a close friend of the original owner.
He hoped that when he left this world, the two of them would still be good friends.
Deyou looked at Ah Hui's back as he hurriedly walked out. After thinking about it, he asked, "Where are you going? Do you still need my help?"
Ah Hui shook his head.
He has to do the next thing by himself.
The Chen family has always been arrogant and domineering.
House slaves could break into other adults' mansions and beat and scold officials.
Of course he can too.
He Hancai had to give Prime Minister Chen face when he talked about it. How could a mere Master Ji not give him face?
Ah Hui doesn't like the idea of using someone else's power to show off, but when something happens to his friend, he will only regret why he can't use someone to show off his power.
So now, he's going to cause trouble.
As he walked out of the door, a cold wind hit him, making his hair stand up.
Sure enough, the temperature has dropped.
Turning towards the corridor, he suddenly froze.
The whole person froze in place, motionless.
A gust of cold wind blew away some of his hot irritability.
He blinked.
That’s right.
Chen Feibai came towards him with Chu Yue.
Chen Feibai is still dressed in white, his manners are elegant and his bearing is extraordinary.
Chu Yue followed behind, looking tired but still holding on to a smile.
Underneath this smile, she hid a bit of curiosity and timidity that a maid should have when she arrived at the house.
She acted very well.
It’s also hard work.
Ah Hui stabilized all his thoughts.
Stand up straight.
Wang Wu looked at Chen Feibai, then at Ah Hui, and said softly: "Sir, should I avoid it?"
Ah Hui glanced at Wang Wu.
Suddenly a new idea came to me.
This person has always been very sympathetic to the weak.
He thought for a moment and said softly: "You go to the side room and stay. I will find you later."
Wang Wu immediately retreated after hearing this.
Chen Feibai looked at Wang Wu curiously, and when he saw that it was the servant he had met yesterday, he just stared at him for a moment and then looked away.
Chu Yue saluted Ah Hui familiarly.
Ah Hui was indifferent and didn't even give her a glance. He pretended to be curious: "Why are you here? And you brought... a female family member with you?"
Chen Feibai sighed: "She is the woman who met you yesterday."
Ah Hui then suddenly realized and shifted his gaze to Chu Yue. After looking at it for a while, he nodded: "Yes, it's her."
"She will follow you from now on." Chen Feibai said matter-of-factly.
Ah Hui originally thought so too, but now...he suddenly realized that this was a bit bad and said hesitantly: "This is not in line with the rules..."
"Are there many irregularities in Chen's residence?" Chen Feibai smiled, seemingly carefree and at ease, but in fact there was a bit of sadness between his eyebrows.
You see, he actually knows everything.
Ah Hui said no more, but solemnly saluted him: "Thank you, Master."
He said it very seriously.
Chen Feibai didn't say anything, he just stared at Ah Hui for a long time.
As if to see through him.
Then, he left without saying anything.
Chu Yue stood in front of Ah Hui. As soon as Chen Feibai left, she relaxed a little, and all the fatigue appeared in her eyes.
Ah Fai knew she was suffering.
But the walls have ears, so he still said coldly: "Come in with me."
Chu Yue followed closely.
After entering the lobby, Ah Hui closed the door and led Chu Yue to the back room.
First sentence: "Are you okay?"
Chu Yue smiled miserably, but quickly nodded again with a gentle voice: "Of course, I'm fine."
Ah Hui sighed and sat down casually: "I almost thought you had an accident."
"We have worked together for so many years, you should believe me." Chu Yue still smiled, giving people a reassuring smile.
Ah Hui did not deny it, but now that Chu Yue was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief and joked: "Fathers generally worry about their children."
The heavy atmosphere suddenly dissipated.
Chu Yue felt helpless and her tone became relaxed.
"Last night, a family came to arrest me."
"The wife of the Minister of Rites, Mrs. He."
"It turns out she is the wife of the Minister of Rites." Chu Yue lowered her eyes and began to recall: "I was very careful when staying in the inn and locked the doors and windows every day."
"It was tied with simple anti-theft equipment and connected to my hands and feet. If someone forced the door or window, I would know immediately."
"Last night, it was about time when I was asleep, and I heard someone trying to open my door."
"Because I set up the mechanism, and the other party was smart and didn't force the door open, so I didn't wake up immediately."
"They gave up when they realized they couldn't open it, but I was very sober."
"At this time, I grabbed the dagger and crouched behind the door, ready to fight back at any time."
Chu Yue looked at Ah Hui, her beautiful eyes showing sternness.
"I didn't expect them to be so well prepared and use drugs."
"It was extremely dark at night in this dynasty, and there were no electric lights. I didn't notice the smoke at the first time. By the time I could see it clearly, I had already inhaled a lot..."
Chu Yue didn’t need to elaborate on the rest, Ah Hui already knew it.
Mrs. He was very well prepared, maybe she just wanted to silence her.
So be cautious to the extreme.
Everything that needs to be prepared is ready.
But... why is Chu Yue still alive and even appearing in front of him.
Chu Yue may have noticed Ah Hui's doubts, so she smiled mockingly to herself.
"When I woke up again, I was already in a boudoir."
"That madam, oh, Madam He didn't use force on me. Instead, she hugged me and cried."
Speaking of this, Chu Yue looked at Ah Hui slyly: "Do you know why?"
Ah Hui frowned and thought carefully, but found no answer.
It stands to reason that he has already avenged his murder and silenced his wife, so why go through such an extra drama?
"I didn't know it at first. I was just like you. The moment I passed out, I thought I was dead."
"After all, my status in this dynasty is a threat to the officials."
"So when I woke up, I thought I was resurrected. But then I realized something was wrong."
Chu Yue lowered her eyes slightly, with a sinister air that was inappropriate for her age: "Mrs. He hugged me and cried, and said many, many words. Until the last sentence, I suddenly understood why she did what she did."
"She said she felt sorry for me and left me outside because she got lost as a child and never found me. She asked me if I would blame her, and said a lot of things that she had been looking for me all these years...Finally, she said that she accidentally looked at When it came to me, I felt that I looked too much like her, but that she had a connection between mother and daughter. She asked me if I felt the same way."
"I didn't answer. I told her that I was a little dizzy. I kept pretending that I was just a country boy, simple and kind, and didn't understand anything."
"She lowered her guard a little bit, and then asked me tentatively, saying that she had put something on me that could prove her identity before, and asked me if I still had it with me?"
Chu Yue looked at Ah Hui with interest.
Ah Hui also laughed.
He got it, totally got it.
Just like Chu Yue, who had just heard this at that time, she understood everything.
Mrs. He is such an impeccable person.
She was afraid that killing Chu Yue rashly would leave some hidden dangers.
She was not sure if there was anything on Chu Yue that could prove her identity, maybe she had hidden it.
This thing will still be a thunder in the future.
So she put on a play to make Chu Yue believe that she was really the child who was accidentally lost outside, and that she was really the daughter of the family.
And because this matter is of great importance, she needs to hand over something that can prove her identity...
In this way, when people die, things are gone.
Once and for all.
She is really attentive, patient and thoughtful.
It's just a pity that Chu Yue was the one she met.
In order to prevent things that prove your identity from being lost or accidentally being seen and causing trouble.
Chu Yue has always kept that worthless jade pendant in the system backpack...
I have never thought that storage cells are so useful...
