Queen of Nongmen: Hexagrams determine the universe

Chapter 397 Doubt
However, when You Yue'e returned to Yiling County, Ye Qiongdan had already left. Today is the third day that the young masters of the Lu family, Luo family, and Zhang family had accidents. The little boy expressed his condolences.

Of course, before going to express condolences to the three young masters, she went back to the Huo family compound again.

No one in the Huo family compound cared about her going or staying. In the two days since she left, the situation of the Huo family was still a mess. Mrs. Huo has not yet found out the reason for Mrs. Huo's disappearance, and she dare not stay in the Huo family compound. The courtyard was furious, but her appearance of holding back her breath was more terrifying than her furious anger. Every servant in the Huo family's courtyard was trembling, for fear that if he accidentally offended his wife, he would end up in a terrible end.

After Ye Qiongdan returned to the Huo family compound, the maid served her carefully and did not tell her anything about the Huo family compound.

But Ye Qiongdan naturally knew that Huo's family compound was still full of turmoil and wars, and Mrs. Huo must have suffered from insomnia last night.

But so what?

She just responded appropriately.

If Mrs. Huo hadn't poisoned Mrs. Huo that day, she wouldn't be so worried today. She wouldn't be afraid that Mrs. Huo would return to the Huo family one day and turn the Huo family upside down, and she wouldn't be afraid that she would find someone before that. If she didn't reach Madam Huo, she would be disgusted by her husband and depressed ever since.

When Ye Qiongdan came back this time, it was like a fallen leaf was blown into the pool water, but there was a layer of faint ripples, which no one cared about.

And when she left, no one cared about her movements.

The young masters of the three families passed away, and an obituary was immediately sent to the major families in Guazhou. The status of these three families is second only to the Zhou family and the Huo family, so many people came to mourn the three young masters .

Mrs. Zhou had already gone to the funeral halls of the three major families to mourn several young masters yesterday, and Mrs. Huo was so upset about Mrs. Huo's matter now, how could she be in the mood to attend other people's funerals?This made the three major families feel a little displeased. They felt that Mrs. Zhou had come, but Mrs. Huo hadn't. Was this looking down on their three major families?
How did they know that Mrs. Huo is already in a state of desperation.

When Ye Qiongdan left the gate of Huo's house, she saw a carriage parked at the gate of Huo's house, the curtain of the carriage was raised, and it was Xu Mingzhu sitting inside.

"Why are you here?" Ye Qiongdan hurried over and asked with a smile.

"I miss you." Xu Mingzhu jumped out of the carriage and walked over to take her arm. "I can always experience ups and downs by your side. I have been staying with my father in the barracks for a while Then, repeating the previous training, I feel very boring."

"It's not a good thing to like novelty so much. What will you do when you get married?" Ye Qiongdan teased.

"Then I will definitely find someone with the same interests. If my interests are completely different from mine, I will not marry him. Doesn't marriage mean suffering?" Xu Mingzhu said disapprovingly.

"You're right," Ye Qiongdan nodded, "Then how are you doing these days?"

"Can I be good at my father's territory? It's fine if I don't bully others. Who else would dare to bully me? Isn't that a waste of future?" Xu Mingzhu raised her chin with a little pride, "What about you?" ? Have you experienced anything interesting recently?"

"Let's talk when we get into the carriage."

In the past, Ye Qiongdan was always alone and had no friends around her. Now that she can become good sisters with Xu Mingzhu, she thought that she would still be a deserted person. Unexpectedly, there would be a desire to confide in her heart, and she wanted to make her own Experience something to share with another person.

Xu Mingzhu couldn't wait to get into the carriage, and then gave Ye Qiongdan a hand.

After getting into the carriage, Ye Qiongdan said to the coachman, "Let's go to the Lu family compound."

Ye Qiongdan was the first to know Mr. Lu, so she planned to go to the Lu family compound to mourn the little son of the Lu family first.

"What are you going to do in the Lu family compound?" Xu Mingzhu asked suspiciously.

"I'm afraid you came to me just after leaving the guard camp? Recently, several major events have happened in Guazhou."

Ye Qiongdan started talking about the Jade Appreciation Banquet, and the topic ended with the sudden death of the three young masters of the Lu family, Luo family and Zhang family.

Xu Mingzhu listened with great interest, and after listening, she asked suspiciously: "Then what do you think is the real reason for the sudden death of the three young masters?"

"I don't know," Ye Qiongdan shook his head, "I don't have any clues yet."

"Do you think those talisman papers are poisonous?" Xu Mingzhu analyzed.

"I asked Mr. Zhu, and Mr. Lu said that those talisman papers could not be poisonous, because he had pulled out a piece of talisman paper before, burned it to ashes, and then mixed it with water and drank it. This did not make his body appear. What's the difference."

"In this way, there may be two situations," Xu Mingzhu said while touching his chin, "either, the dose of a piece of talisman paper is too small, so the poison will not kill people; or someone later put this talisman paper in the water It has been soaked, and the water is poisonous. The murderer behind the scenes hopes that one day, on a whim, Mr. Lu will take out a piece of talisman and burn it to ashes. In this way, as soon as Mr. Lu drinks the water mixed with ashes, he will be violent die."

"You make a lot of sense." Ye Qiongdan nodded.

"Why don't we find a chance to try?" Xu Mingzhu suggested.

"I was rushing to go to the three major families today to mourn the sudden death of their young masters. Let's do this experiment another day. As long as the three young masters can be rehabilitated, it shouldn't hurt to be a little late."

"You're right." Xu Mingzhu nodded.

The carriage drove all the way towards the Lu family compound, and stopped at the gate of the Lu family compound half an hour later.

At this time, the Lu family courtyard was completely plain, with white lanterns hanging under the eaves, tied with white silk cloth, and many white flowers on the ground, which looked solemn and solemn.

Some guests who came to condolences wore white or black clothes to show their condolences.

If some guests come in a hurry, at the entrance, someone will prepare plain cloaks and hand them to the guests who come to express their condolences.

Before Ye Qiongdan rushed over to express his condolences, he went to a tailor shop and bought a plain dress to show respect.

Xu Mingzhu did not make this preparation. When he entered the door, someone handed him a plain cloak for her to wear on her body.

The butler of the Lu Family Courtyard was guarding the door just to receive the distinguished guests.

The housekeeper of the Lu Family Courtyard had seen Ye Qiongdan, and when he saw her coming, he immediately stepped forward, saluted her, and said respectfully: "Miss Ye, you are here, please come with me."

Steward Lu didn't know Xu Mingzhu, and he only regarded her as Ye Qiongdan's friend, so he nodded politely at her.

Xu Mingzhu was not from a wealthy family, and she only had the experience of living in Zhou's house temporarily. Now that she came to Lu's house, where the bells and bells are ringing, she was inevitably a little nervous.

She gave Steward Lu a stiff smile, and then followed Ye Qiongdan closely, never leaving her.

Ye Qiongdan knew that she was a little nervous, so he took her hand and followed the housekeeper to the place where the mourning hall was set up.

At this time, there was a small coffin in the mourning hall, and some ice basins were placed around the coffin to ensure the temperature of the coffin.

After the young master of the Lu family died suddenly, because there were many ice cubes around his body, there was no sign of corruption in his body.

His face was pale, and he looked very pitiful in a shroud.

Ye Qiongdan sighed, took the incense and some money papers handed to her by the maid, lit the incense in her hand, and bowed to the poor young master.

Then, she put the incense in her hand into the incense burner, and burned some paper money for the young master.

Xu Mingzhu followed Ye Qiongdan and did the same, sitting very well.

The members of the Lu family knelt aside, their eyes were red and their expressions were exhausted.

Ye Qiongdan and Xu Mingzhu saluted them, and they saluted them both back.

The air was filled with the smell of paper money being burned and the sound of doing things, which made people feel confused and felt a sense of sadness.

Ye Qiongdan walked up to the housekeeper and asked in a low voice: "Isn't it usually performed in the mourning hall? Why does the sound of performing rituals sound a little far away?"

"The ceremony in the mourning hall has already been done. This is done in the study room. The master said that the evil spirit entrenched in the study room is very powerful. This ceremony needs to be performed for seven days in a row to eliminate the evil spirit." Thinking of this, the housekeeper sighed. With a sigh of relief, who would have thought that the study room would be contaminated with dirty things for no reason, causing the three young masters to lose their lives?

It's really unpredictable.

"Then there are evil spirits in the study, isn't it possible?" Ye Qiongdan opened his eyes wide, "Everything in the study looks normal."

"Naturally, we normal people can't find the abnormalities in the study room. That master is not a mortal. He said that there are evil spirits in the study room, so there must be evil spirits."

"Really? Then I'll go take a look."

The butler only thought Ye Qiongdan was curious, so he asked a servant to take her and Xu Mingzhu to the study.

Walking on the way to the study, Ye Qiongdan was full of doubts. She didn't feel any evil spirits in the study that day. It can be seen that there can be no evil spirits in the study. The master must be lying.

Moreover, Ye Qiongdan took away the remaining three talisman papers afterwards. It is said that as long as the three talisman papers are burned to ashes and mixed with water, ghosts can be seen after drinking them.

But Ye Qiongdan had already seen the talismans drawn on the three talisman papers, and they were not talismans that could allow ordinary people to see ghosts at all, but some scribbled things with unclear meaning.

Obviously, that master is a swindling wild fox Zen.

As for the matter of the three young masters, whether it has anything to do with those talisman papers, Ye Qiongdan is hard to say.

Perhaps, the truth is as Xu Mingzhu said?
The two of them followed the servant to the vicinity of the study, and the servant still had to go forward, but Ye Qiongdan said: "No need, let's take a look here from a distance, you can go back and do your work first."

"Miss Ye, do you remember the way you came here?" the servant asked quickly.

"Of course I remember, don't worry." Ye Qiongdan nodded.

So, the servants withdrew, leaving only Ye Qiongdan and Xu Mingzhu behind.

Xu Mingzhu had heard Ye Qiongdan tell the story about Mr. Lu in the carriage before, so she couldn't help but be a little curious about the expert who did things in the study.

"Qiondan, do you think that expert is more powerful? Or are you more powerful?"

"How do I answer this?" Ye Qiongdan laughed.

"Just tell the truth. In front of me, do you still need to play tricks?"

"After all, this is the Lu family's compound. That expert has won the favor of Mr. Lu. I dare not say here that my morals are higher than his." Ye Qiongdan said lightly.
