Xiao Yuehuai stumbled a few steps while pulling the cargo box and almost fell down. Before she could hide, she heard Yue Muze calling: "Ah Huai! I saw you a long time ago. There is no need to hide."
Xiao Yuehuai shrugged his shoulders and had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk out.
Growing up, in the Yue family, she was not afraid of her grandfather, nor her two uncles, nor her eldest cousin, but she was most afraid of her second cousin Yue Muze. When she was in the same room with him, she always had to discipline herself and did not dare to do anything beyond her limits.
Her cousin was capable and decisive in his actions, and he was talented and good-looking. He should have been very popular with young girls, but he had a violent and cruel personality. He showed no mercy to anyone and only respected etiquette and laws.
Every time Xiao Yuehuai saw him, he looked like he had one head and two heads.
She originally thought that this meeting would end in another scolding, but she didn't expect that Yue Muze remained silent for a long time and only asked: "It's so late at night. You ran out alone and you weren't afraid of meeting a thief?"
"Come here and let me take a look. Is there any injury?"
Xiao Yuehuai was very surprised. She stared at him blankly, not daring to move closer. She suspected that the man in front of her was not her ruthless second cousin.
Yue Muze said helplessly: "Little Ah Huai? Do you have to wait for me to scold you before you come here?"
His voice became louder, and Xiao Yuehuai quickly came back to his senses, leaping in front of him, staring at him but hesitating to speak.
Yue Muze: "I know what you want to ask. I don't recognize your cousin, but I don't ignore it. Mr. Qin Ge's case was tried so smoothly, as if it was designed, and there was something fishy about it."
"I have long suspected that someone was framing me, but I couldn't do anything because I had no clues to investigate."
"Uncle told me that you have evidence in your hand. In this case...it is understandable that you took Madam Qin to escape from the prison."
Xiao Yue said with surprise: "It's really strange to hear the words "excusable" from my second cousin."
"Since you don't blame me, what was the situation in the cargo ship just now?"
Yue Muze glanced at her, curled his lips and said with a smile: "You want to ask if these people are the gangsters who investigated the salt affairs under Kang Rongqi, right?"
Xiao Yuehuai was startled and stared at him without saying a word, but felt confused in her heart. She didn't disclose the evidence to the Yue family in advance. How did her second cousin know about Kang Rongqi?
Yue Muze seemed to know what she was thinking, and explained in a low voice: "Don't be surprised. Since I first saw this group of people tonight, I have recognized them. Hubu has several people in the world under his command, and each has his own official position. The government probably knows better and will always make arrangements within the regulations. I have dealt with them several times when I was on errands, so I know their faces."
Xiao Yuehuai breathed a sigh of relief and handed him the secret account and confession in her arms: "Since my cousin has already noticed it, I guess you should know without me saying anything...who is going to frame the Qin Ge family?" .”
"The evidence in my hand is not ironclad at all. If you can pry open the mouths of these gangsters tonight and get some solid confessions from them, there will be a way to redress the injustice of the Qin family in the court."
Yue Muze took advantage of the weak lights on the pier and scanned the secret account, then unfolded the confession book and read it roughly. His face suddenly darkened, and he suppressed his annoyance, but his tone added a bit of boredom. Hate——
"This Kang Rongqi...is he really powerful? He has the guts to do this?"
Xiao Yuehhuai: "Please cousin, please examine carefully. The twenty boxes of silver that appeared in the Qin Mansion are closely related to these gangsters. If we can dig deeper, other people may be involved. We must not let anyone go."
Yue Muze frowned, accepted the evidence in person, and promised: "I will definitely do my best to see what kind of monsters, ghosts, gods, and snakes are hidden behind this heavy fog?"
After saying that, he raised his foot to leave. He took half a step, but for some reason he took it back.
Just listen to him say: "By the way. Xiao Ahuai, since you have already asked me to lead an elite to set up an ambush tonight, why bother bothering the silver-armored guards to act in plain clothes? Just now on the ship, I almost hurt one of my own people. I didn't expect that you wouldn't Don't worry about my abilities, it really breaks my heart to ask for help."
Silver Armored Guard? ? ?
Yue Muze's question made Xiao Yuehuai dumbfounded: When had she asked Silver Armor Guard for help?
She didn't say a word, but Yue Muze thought she didn't know how to explain, so he waved his hand and said, "That's all, nothing big happened. It's getting late, so go back quickly."
Xiao Yuehuai stood there blankly, watching him leave, but her mind was spinning and she had goosebumps all over her body.
Someone took a step ahead of her and teamed up with the Silver Armored Guards to set a trap in the cargo ship?
Xiao Yuehuai recalled her previous life again.
Back then, she and Lu Pingsheng were competing for horse racing at the hunting ground in the western suburbs, and were hunted down by the Baizhenmen assassins.
In order to protect her, Lu Pingsheng fought against more than a dozen gangsters alone. He was seriously injured, which shocked his father. Later, he ordered a strict investigation, which involved many people and caused a sensation throughout Jinling.
The soldiers who were responsible for guarding the hunting grounds were dismissed from their posts and investigated, and all the remaining thieves from the Baizhen Sect were also executed. After this incident, a few rare officers in Beijing who opposed the Lu family happened to be dismissed from their posts, and the left and right generals of the Jinling Silver Armor Guard were among them.
This was originally a bitter plot devised by the Lu family, which could not only use this favor to marry her, but also remove obstacles in the court.
After the wedding, his father handed over the appointment of the leader of the Jinling Silver Armor Guard to Lu Pingsheng. The Silver Armored Guards thus became a force of the Lu family...
When the autumn wind blew in the port, Xiao Yuehuai hugged herself so coldly that she couldn't stop shivering.
Could it be that after reviving her life...she fell into Lu's scheme again?
In panic, she moved back to Qianchun Tower step by step.
A Lu was waiting eagerly in front of the door. He saw Xiao Yuehui who was unconscious from a distance, and hurriedly greeted her: "Princess! Why are you coming back now? This slave is almost worried to death!"
"Alu..."
Xiao Yuehuai swallowed her throat, feeling increasingly cold, and her face turned pale: "I'm so cold, so cold..."
Alu reached out and touched her forehead, and immediately screamed: "Ah! Princess! Why is your forehead so hot? It must be the cool wind at the pier that gave you a cold! Hurry! Come into the house quickly! I'll heat up a bowl of ginger Soup, you’ll feel better if you drink it.”
Xiao Yuehuai nodded vaguely.
Lying on the soft couch in the wing room, she opened her eyes, and the faces of Qin E's family appeared in her mind, and the fear in her heart spread. If Lu Pingsheng really noticed Kang Rongqi's actions before her, then the Qinge family would be in dire straits again...
Qin E...
Xiao Yuehuai sat up suddenly and stumbled towards the door.
Assuming that the Lu family had been prepared, they would not have continued to hide the relief money in Zhuying Mountain. When Qin E went, she fell into a trap.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuehuai felt a sigh of relief in her heart, which made her tremble uncontrollably: She failed to save the Qin family in her last life, will the result be the same in this life?
Her steps were unsteady and she fell heavily against the door frame. Her eyes were spinning.
A Lu came over with ginger soup and happened to see this scene. He quickly put down the food table in his hand and ran over to help her up.
Xiao Yuehuai was exhausted and secretly cursed herself as a waste. She was worried about Qin E's safety, so she struggled to get up. Unexpectedly, before he could stand still, he felt dizzy again.
She reluctantly took two steps forward, but her body was not strong enough and she fell to the ground with a thud and fainted.
