Farming in Nongmen: After breaking off the marriage, she became the favorite of Lord Hou

Chapter 81
Wei Yu stared at the letter for a long time without returning to his senses, the corners of his mouth grinning to his ears.

Nothing could be happier than this moment...

He secretly fantasized about the scene of Yu Qingqing standing in front of him, that appearance is really irresistible.

"Dong dong dong..." A quick knock on the door brought him back from his thoughts.

The smile on his face was fleeting.

Looking at the door indifferently, he asked, "What's the matter?"

Ruhu was outside the door, shivering from the cold, he knew that he shouldn't disturb Master Hou at this time.

However, the situation was urgent, and he was also very helpless, and said softly, "Master Hou... the Minister of Rites, Master Xue, has been assassinated..."

Wei Yu's eyes changed, he quickly put away the letter, and said, "When did it happen? Come in and talk."

"Half an hour ago." Ruhu pushed open the door and walked in, lowering his head and lowering his eyebrows, waiting for Wei Yu's order.

Here we go again, the man in black must have done it again.

Killing someone right under his nose is clearly a provocation.

Wei Yu's face was frighteningly dark, like a deep pool.

Ru Hu meowed at him, and continued, "It's... the man in black did it. The Superintendent has already rushed over, and specially asked his subordinates to come down and notify Lord Hou."

With a flick of his sleeve, Wei Yu put the letter in the book he often reads.

Walking in front of Ruhu with strides, "Go, follow me to have a look."

"Yes, Lord Hou."

Inspectorate.

Master You and his subordinates stood in the dungeon, looking at Xue Shangshu's body, and beside him was a man in black.

The clothes were stripped, and the picture of black lilies was prominently reflected on the back of his head.

And...Xue Shangshu's body was stabbed several times, and the blood had solidified into black and purple.

It is riddled with holes, which is shocking at a glance.

Seeing Wei Yu's arrival, Master You cast a gloomy face, cast a glance at him, and said with a helping hand, "Master Hou, it was the same group of people who did it again."

"Also... Mrs. Xue was also injured, probably tomorrow... the emperor..." Mr. You hesitated to speak.

Wei Yu glanced at him, hesitating.

What can the emperor do?It's nothing more than furious and arresting the murderer as soon as possible.

He knelt down and frowned, carefully studying the black lily on the man in black.

This lily... Where did he seem to have seen it before?

Brainstorming, there are too many things during this time, but I can't remember?
He frowned, stood up and stared at Master You, and said softly with thin lips, "Master You, have you ever wondered why the men in black wanted to attack Officer Da Yan? Isn't their purpose already obvious?"

Mr. You is a military officer who has been stationed abroad all year round. He was ordered to return to Beijing a year ago to take up the post of Governor of the Supervision Institute.

He couldn't figure out the things that took his brains. He acted rashly and ran around the streets and alleys of the capital all day, but found nothing.

Say it right.

Lord You raised his brows, "Master Hou means...Master Hou, let's go to the front yard and discuss in detail."

Master You signaled Wei Yu to go first, followed by himself.

forecourt.

The two sat across the table, and the servant served hot tea very quickly, and retreated respectfully.

Lord You followed with his eyes, and said loudly, "Close the door."

He and Wei Yu were the only ones left in the room, Lord You grinned, and said cheerfully, "What Hou Ye said just now... don't talk to me, just say it."

"Master You is a smart man, can't you see the intention of the man in black?" Wei Yu's eyes were stern, and his tone was somewhat affirmative.

Lord You's eyes move frequently, thoughtful.

After being stunned for a while, he came back to his senses in an instant, and looked at Wei Yu with sharp eyes, "Your Majesty means... the mastermind behind the man in black went to the people in the palace, and the killing of the official Dayan was just to disintegrate that person." power."

Wei Yu nodded, allowing the man in black to kill so painfully and get close to his goal.

He must have a deep hatred with that person.

Master You was a little apprehensive, showing a surprised expression, "That person can't be..."

"Yes." Wei Yu hammered the final word.

This kind of speculation is enough to explain the motive of the mastermind of the man in black.

A huge murder conspiracy just made the person sitting on the dragon chair restless.

He has a grudge against him.

"Master Hou, this matter should not be publicized, as long as you know what I know, besides... there is no evidence to prove it." Master You was stunned for a moment.

If this is what the two of them speculated, then the mastermind behind the man in black must have a powerful force, coming fiercely.

Soon, there will be a bloodbath in the capital.

"The Marquis will find the evidence. Starting tomorrow, the entire city will be on guard."

"Especially officials of the fourth rank and above, capture the man in black alive." Wei Yu's eyes were burning, and he put his hands on his thighs, and slowly clenched them.

He knew it was difficult. The man in black was like a dead man. Once he was arrested, he would take poison and kill himself.

We must find a way to prevent the man in black from taking the poison in the first place.

"No problem, I'll give you an order right now." Master You was impatient, it was related to the whole Dayan.

In just half a year, more than a dozen officials in Dayan died, and all of them were upright officials.

Wei Yu got up slowly, with his hands behind his back, and looked at Mr. You, "Then Benhou is going back to the mansion first."

"Your Majesty will send you off to Lord Marquis."

Wei Yu left the Inspectorate without looking back, and did not return to the Hou Mansion in a carriage.

Instead, he put on a robe and walked like a tiger in the cold night, step by step, full of melancholy in leisure.

Ruhu followed him silently, and said cautiously, "Master Hou, can you put yourself in danger?"

Ruhu is afraid that he will use him as a lure to lure the man in black to show up.

When the old Hou Ye passed away, the young master was the one who worried the most.

I regret even more that when I was young, I believed greedy words, ruined my wife, and ruined half of my young master's childhood.

Before leaving, privately told him and Tian Yi, no matter what happens in the future?You must protect the young master's life.

Therefore, he must not let the young master have any accidents.

"This Marquis won't." Wei Yu looked at the pitch-black night sky, without any stars and densely covered with dark clouds.

Only on the street, the faintly flooded lights.

"The sky is dry, be careful of the candles..." the voice of the watchman sounded on the street.

Ring twice.

Ruhu raised his eyes and whispered softly, "Master Hou, it's the second watch."

Wei Yu breathed a sigh of relief, frustrating his hands like Yu Qingqing, and hooked the corner of his mouth, "Ruhu, do you remember that there is a place called Heimulin on the outskirts of Shangyu Prefecture?"

Why did Lord Hou suddenly ask this?He nodded and replied, "Of course I remember. Three years ago, when the three of us were playing around, there was a place called Yazi Village. All the people in the village died overnight."

"Even women and children were not spared. I heard later that it was a man named Wan Huazun who did it."

Ru Hu recalled carefully, his brows shrugged.

Wei Yu smiled slightly, and followed the red lanterns on the street with his eyes, "Then do you still remember how those people died?"

"I was stabbed to death by a sword." Ruhu still remembers it vividly.

At that time, he remembered that a woman was holding a child and was stabbed three or four times, and even the child was stabbed in the chest.

Killing people like a demon, using insane methods.

Moreover, Yazi Village is just around the Blackwood Forest, and since then, no one has entered the Blackwood Forest.
