Chapter 112 Warm Invitation

"Falled down the hillside and died accidentally?" Wei Ling narrowed her eyes, "Is it that simple?"

Mrs. Hong nodded repeatedly, "It's such a simple matter. The government also came to check at that time and examined Miss Tao's body. Everything was normal. Miss Tao fell down the mountain and her head was bleeding and she couldn't move. In the end, she lost too much blood. And die."

"What did you say!" Wei Ling shouted suddenly.

Madam Hong was startled and said tremblingly, "Guan Guan Mansion..."

"No! It's not that sentence." Wei Ling stared at Mrs. Hong intently, and subconsciously clenched her fist, "That last sentence."

"Loss of... too much blood?" Mrs. Hong carefully spat out four words.

Wei Ling's eyes brightened, "Too much blood loss means too much blood loss! Madam Hong, stop hiding it and tell the truth! Miss Tao, Chen Xinlian, Wu Hongzheng and the others, tell me if they have had any conflicts before."

"Conflict?" Mrs. Hong's eyes were a little erratic. "The classmates are all girls of the same age, and they are all young and energetic. Conflicts are not serious, but small frictions and quarrels happen from time to time. This These are all normal things, sir.”

Chen Buyu asked in a deep voice, "Ms. Hong, you must be held responsible if you conceal something and affect the handling of the case. You'd better tell the truth from the beginning! Tell me everything you know, every word."

"Sir." Madam Hong said anxiously, "These are matters related to the reputation of the academy. I don't dare to talk about them without the permission of Chief Yang."

"This matter still has something to do with Yang Shanchang?"

"No, no, no, this matter indeed has nothing to do with Principal Yang. Principal Yang was also transferred here more than a year ago after something disgraceful like Miss Tao happened in the academy."

Madam Hong looked miserable, "It's related to the honor and future of the academy. If I talk nonsense, I won't be able to afford the compensation if the academy pursues it in the future."

"What are you talking about!" A guard on the side pulled out a knife with a fierce look on his face, "Do you know that if you conceal it or not report it, we can now block the case for obstructing official duties and arrest you and put you in jail?"

"No, no, no, no, sir, sir, I will say, I will say anything." Mrs. Hong sat slumped on the ground and waved her hands.

"The former academy principal paid great attention to study and never paid attention to the quarrels and disputes between female students. I was only in charge of the dormitory, and I couldn't do it even if I wanted to." Mrs. Hong felt extremely aggrieved, " Sir, please think about it, these girls are either the daughter of an official or a wealthy businessman."

"How can I, a commoner's wife, take care of their affairs? Miss Li and Miss He are both the best official daughters in Weizhou Prefecture, born into a noble family. Miss Chen and Miss Wu's shop is also very prosperous, and she spends money on everyone she meets. Who in the academy would dare to offend them?"

"Miss Tao is unlucky. Somehow she was targeted by them, and she doesn't like her at all. They secretly bully or do some little things to Miss Tao, and there's no way I can stop her."

"But these little prank-like fights won't lead to anyone's death."

"Whether there is a life or not is not something you can tell in one sentence." Wei Ling pulled her up from the ground with a sullen face, "Where does Miss Tao live? Is she from Weizhou Prefecture? Take us to her house."

Miss Yu and her four beautiful little maids ate half of the Weizhou mansion.

On the way back, I bought a lot of silk handkerchiefs and jewelry for each of the maids, and they were all respectfully sent out by the shopkeeper.

The five masters and servants happily walked back home. When passing through Chongyuanfang Street, Yu Linlang stopped the carriage, lifted the curtains and waved her head, "What a coincidence, Donglan."

Xu Donglan was heading towards the inn with her maid. When she heard the shout, she turned her head and a smile unexpectedly spread across her face.

"What a wonderful girl." She pointed to the "Fu Lai Inn" opposite and said with a smile, "I live here. I wonder if Miss Jade can sit down with me and have a cup of tea with me?"

Yu Linlang stepped out of the car and waved to Jiujin and the others, "You take your things back first, and I'll chat with Miss Xu for a while." "Then go home and drop off your things, and I'll accompany the coachman to pick up the lady."

"Hey, no need. There is a horse racing stable near Chongyuanfang. I can just rent a carriage and go back." Yu Linlang waved her hand, "Go ahead."

Several maids bowed and left one after another.

Xu Donglan took Yu Linlang to the guest room on the second floor and asked the maid Ying'er to exit and make tea.

"I later embroidered the squirrel again, and Miss Yu helped me see how it went." Xu Donglan opened the box and took out the embroidery, and handed it to Yu Linlang with great interest.

"I've made a lot of progress. You can see that the hair is clearly defined and the eyes are bright."

Xu Donglan pursed her lips and smiled, "It's still far from Miss Yu's embroidery skills. I can only say that with your guidance, the embroidery is indeed much better than the last time."

"It's not in vain that Miss Yu, a teacher, worked so hard to teach me. After all, it's not for nothing."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Ying'er came in to serve tea, smiled sweetly at Yu Linlang, and then left.

"By the way." Xu Donglan walked to the bed, took a small pink note from the table and handed it to Yu Linlang, "I wonder if Miss Yu will be free at noon tomorrow, and can she accompany me to Yingyue Lake to attend a plum blossom party? .”

"It may take Miss Jade a whole day. There is also a small banquet of plum tasting in the evening. Enjoy the lake breeze and taste plum cakes and fresh fish." Xu Donglan smiled and looked at Yu Linlang, "Miss Jade, are you willing to go together?"

Yu Linlang smiled leisurely with deep eyes, "Since we are invited by a beauty, how can we not refuse?"

After another conversation with Xu Donglan, seeing that it was getting late, Yu Linlang got up to say goodbye and hired a car to go back to the Prince's Villa.

She had just finished washing and sat down when the window pane moved slightly and Wei Ling jumped in like a dead salted fish.

This man was slumped on her brocade couch by the window, as if he had been beaten all day long and could not move a muscle.

Jiu Jin pursed his lips and suppressed a smile. After serving tea to Mr. Wei, he left.

Yu Linlang glanced at her, "How?"

"What's going on? I've been running around all day today. I'm telling you, I've never been this tired from a fight." Wei Ling turned over and sat up, drank the tea in one gulp, and threw the cup heavily on the table.

"When we found the academy, Mrs. Hong actually ran away. She stopped her on the official road! She didn't dare to say anything at first, and she only spoke after being forced to do so."

"That Miss Tao's name was Tao Yuhe. She died in a mountainside accident two years ago. Miss Yu, do you know how she died? The government office conducted an examination and found that she died of excessive blood loss!"

"You think this is a coincidence? We immediately took Mrs. Hong to her house."

"It turned out that the yard was rented. The neighbors only knew that Miss Tao was from Wuhu County. Her father cared about her very much and rented a yard for her in Weizhou Prefecture. Whenever Miss Tao had a ten-day holiday, Tao's father would come to meet her. of reunion.”
