The Demon Queen of Divine Doctor is not to be trifled with
Chapter 696: Have dogs learned this trick?
Chapter 696: Even dogs have learned this?
Ye Wenyan really thought about this problem carefully, but after thinking about it, he still felt that it was unlikely that it was done by the Ye family.
She even wanted to ask Ye Hongzhuang, Ye Wushuang, and Chang Xueqiao, but none of them had such great abilities. Ye Feizhou did have it, but he was on the same side as her and would not act on his own.
Of course, the most important thing is that her intuition tells her that this matter has nothing to do with the Ye family. The tragedy that happened in Xiushan County has nothing to do with the affairs of the Ye family and the Jiang family. However, if she can use this to cause trouble for the housekeeper, she would be happy to do so.
Ji Duo and Ji Rong came back again during the day, but there was still no new progress, so Ye Wenyan decided to go out for a walk.
The four of them left the Jiang residence. When they passed the front yard, Jiang Shuo hid in the corner and watched. He was relieved after seeing it. They were not from the Ye family. They were all unfamiliar to him. He could guarantee that they were not from the Ye family. Perhaps the housekeeper's guess was wrong. No one from the Ye family came. This whole thing had nothing to do with the Ye family. After all, what happened back then was very disgraceful. Ye Zhenwei didn't say it when he was alive. How could a child of the Ye family go to the Ye family to save his grandfather's face?
He persuaded himself in this way, and finally he felt relieved.
Ye Wenyan and his three companions went out holding umbrellas, and did not take a carriage. Tang originally wanted to accompany them, but was rejected by Ye Wenyan.
Because of the murder case and the bad weather, not many people showed up in the entire county. In broad daylight, Xiushan County looked like a dead county, and it was scary to walk on the street.
Feng Zhaolian felt bored after walking for a while, "There's not even a restaurant open, let's just go back to Jiang's house for dinner."
Ye Wenyan asked her, "Could it be that you came out just to eat at the restaurant?" "What else? To investigate the case? Ah Yan, your people have been investigating outside for several days and have not found anything. I also sent Yun Xiao to investigate for a whole night and still couldn't find anything. Do you think a case like this can be solved by just walking around the streets?"
Ye Wenyan said, "So I'm not here to stroll the streets. I have a target address, which is Xiushan County Government Office."
"What are you doing there? Didn't they say that the county magistrate was scared out of his wits? Never mind, I'm not born to be a good investigator. Anyway, I'll follow you wherever you go, just like taking a walk. But Ah Yan, you must ask the Jiang family to make some delicious food when you go back. I want to eat meat."
Xiushan County Government Office was very impressive, and it looked almost as large as Lin'an Prefecture Government Office. Ye Wenyan knew that this must be the result of the Jiang family, and that keeping the government office well-fed would make it easier for the Jiang family to dominate Xiushan County.
However, the grand county government office was also closed, with not even an official at the door. Only a drum was standing alone at the side.
A group of four people stood at the gate of the county government office. Feng Zhaolian asked her, "Do you want to beat the drum? But we don't seem to have any charges to file." Ye Wenyan didn't speak to him, but just shook his head, and then said to Shi Liyuan, "The Jiang family has reported the deaths these days, and the government will also send people to the gate of the Jiang Mansion to collect the bodies, so these deaths will definitely be recorded. I want to see the document that records the identity of the deceased. Do you want to go in or should I go in?"
Shi Liyuan glared at her and said, "Your question is questionable. When you and I are together, it is natural for me to do things."
After saying that, he put down his hand on her shoulder, held up an umbrella, and walked towards the gate of the county government office.
He walked straight in through the door, as if the door did not exist at all, as if he was entering an empty space.
Ye Wenyan was naturally not surprised, and Feng Zhaolian just said, "Your man is really amazing." Yun Xiao was stunned for a moment, as if thinking about something, and shook his head for a while, without asking any more questions.
The three of them didn't have to wait long. It took only a cup of tea for Master Liyuan to come out. He was still wearing white clothes and holding an umbrella. He walked leisurely. When he came in front of them, he spread his hands forward and handed a file to Ye Wenyan. "Let's go back and take a look." Ye Wenyan casually stuffed the file into his sleeve, actually putting it into the storage bracelet. Yun Xiao looked at the clothes she was wearing today. The cuffs were not wide, and such sleeves could not have sleeve pockets at all.
The file was quite thick and obviously couldn't be stuffed in, but after Ye Wenyan made a gesture of stuffing something in, the file in his hand really disappeared. He was distracted again, but soon recovered again, thinking about something.
When they returned to Jiang's residence, Tang was waiting for them in the front yard. Seeing them coming back, she quickly came over and said, "Didn't I tell you not to go out casually? Where have you been? It's not peaceful outside and it's raining. Why are you walking around? Go back to the house."
Ye Wenyan nodded, said nothing, and led the people to the courtyard where they lived. Tang kept chattering along the way, and followed them. She didn't stop until they walked out of the front yard, and then she lowered her voice and said to Ye Wenyan: "Your uncle has become suspicious. Just now after you left, he ran to ask me what kind of relative you are from my mother's side. I said you are the granddaughter of my mother's cousin, the surname is Qi, and you are the fourth child in the family. If he asks you again, you must not reveal it."
Ye Wenyan nodded, "Got it."
Tang asked again: "What did you do outside? Is there anyone on the street?"
Ye Wenyan said: "There are almost no people. Occasionally, we can see one or two people walking in a hurry. We are just going out for a walk. We have finally come to Xiushan County, so we want to buy some local snacks to try."
"There's nothing good to eat in Xiushan County. It's far inferior to Lin'an." Tang advised her, "Don't go out if you have nothing to do. You must not get into trouble. If you get into trouble in Xiushan County, the emperor will chop us all to pieces! Fourth Miss, we've all heard about your story. The emperor issued a decree to announce it to the world. The county government got the news early and announced the good news to the whole county. The Jiang family kept it a secret that Jiang Xiu was divorced, so everyone in Xiushan County thought that the Jiang family would be more prosperous in the future. If there hadn't been a murder, I'm afraid the doorstep of the Jiang Mansion would have been trampled down by people." Tang sighed when she got to this point, "I'm really angry when I think about Jiang Xiu and that scholar. If that hadn't happened, how prosperous would the Jiang family be! Being related to the Ye family means we're also related to the Emperor, which makes me happy just thinking about it. It's a pity that we don't have that blessing, but I still congratulate you, the fourth lady, for finding a good match. Auntie doesn't expect to rely on you, so I want to tell you that I will do my best to cooperate with you in whatever you want to do, but please also keep your promise and let me and my children and grandchildren go when you want to settle accounts with the Jiang family. I don't ask for anything else, I just want to stay alive and not kill us."
Ye Wenyan glanced at Tang and asked, "Aunt also thinks that I did this?"
Tang was stunned for a moment. "No, isn't it? I didn't think about it at first, but you guys came at this critical moment, so I have to think about it! Besides, the Jiang family hasn't had a big grudge with anyone in these years. Except for the Ye family, no one else can use such means to retaliate. Fourth Miss, I don't ask you to spare the Jiang family, I only ask you to spare the lives of us mother, son and grandson." Ye Wenyan glanced at her and said lightly, "I know, I will consider it."
Tang nodded, "Well, it's all right if the fourth young lady considers it. It's not time for lunch yet, I'll ask someone to get you something to eat."
After Tang left, Ye Wenyan waved towards a corner, and then the big yellow dog came running over, wagging its tail, holding something in its mouth. A few people came over to take a look, and found that the thing was actually a small piece of clothing of a woman.
Feng Zhaolian was shocked at the time: "Are you too open-minded? You have even learned how to visit brothels?"
Ye Wenyan rolled his eyes and said, “Given the current situation in Xiushan County, go and ask which brothel dares to open?” After saying that, he reached out and took the small dress to look at it. Then the big yellow dog ran away again and barked twice in one direction.
"It wants us to go over." Ye Wenyan pulled Shi Liyuan, "Let's go over and take a look."
Feng Zhaolian also pulled Yun Xiao, "Let's go over and take a look."
The big yellow dog led them to a small courtyard. The courtyard was decorated exquisitely and had a faint scent of flowers. It was obviously where the woman lived.
A young woman was dragging a big box out of the house, and a maid was helping her. After finally getting the box out, the maid said, "Aunt, if you really want to run, you should run lightly. This box is so heavy that it's hard to drag from the house to the outside. How can you get it out of the house and take it with you on the road? Please listen to my advice and only take banknotes and small change, and two sets of clothes. Don't take anything else. Running for your life is the most important thing now, and these are just your belongings."
The young woman was reluctant to part with them. "These are all what I have exchanged for my life. You tell me to throw them away? Then wouldn't it be a waste for me to be your concubine all these years? And Jiang Hang slept with me in vain?"
"Aunt, isn't the banknote also money? It's not white, is it?"
"How many banknotes are there? All the valuables are in this box! The Jiang family is so stingy that they never give real money. They just use these jewelry and paintings to fool people. As long as I can't leave Xiushan County, no one will dare to take these things. They will become worthless and will eventually rot in the Jiang family. So I must take them all away this time. I will sell them after leaving Xiushan County, and then take the silver and run away. I can't stay in this broken place anymore. Jiang Hang is the one who caused the trouble. If he keeps killing, he will come to kill me sooner or later. I can't die with Jiang Hang. This kind of love of living and dying together should be left to the first lady to enjoy!"
After she finished speaking, she went to move the boxes again. Seeing that persuasion was futile, the maid had no choice but to follow her to move.
"Auntie is right. We can't wait to die in the mansion. No one in the mansion dares to move around these few days. The master is also sick, and the old lady is exempted from morning and evening visits. I will definitely help Auntie escape."
Ye Wenyan listened to these words and pondered the name Jiang Hang in his mind...
