Chapter 56 - Three Plants 11
Bo Ruoyou was so big, it was the first time I saw a living man naked.
Huo Weilou’s back is stiff, his muscles are overburdened, and his strength is enormous. With just one glance, Bo Ruoyou’s heart makes a very fast jump. She suddenly remembered the scene when he danced his sword in the morning. How handsome and unruly, a tiger roars and dragons dance in the mist of the river wind, her cheeks are a little hot, but Huo Weilou turned around.
The texture of his chest is thick and wide, and the clear gully cuts across the road, spreading all the way down the ribs, to the lower abdomen, there are two veins and knots extending into the ink-colored trousers, Bo Ruoyou is a little flustered, I don’t know why he should turn around. When it was time to lower his eyes, he saw that Huo Wei Tower was calm. He was wearing a cloak slowly, and it looked like it was very common for her to see his body.
Bo Ruoyou reacted a little slowly and looked away.
She turned sideways and didn’t dare to look any more, but the powder fist that fell on her side was clenched tightly. Although she looked away, the body bones of Huo Wei Tower, which was tempered from the blood and gas, were engraved in her mind. Like lingering.
Her heartbeat was extremely fast and heavy, the hot on her cheeks was accompanied by an upsurge of blood, and her ears were also red.
Huo Weilou asked quietly, “What’s the matter?”
He had an ordinary look. He sat before the couch after he had spoken, and he was as aggressive as usual, but he was only half-tied with his **** half-open, and his musculoskeletal chest was looming, a little lazy. There are some inexplicable provocatives.
He squinted his phoenix eyes and saw the thin and reddish ear beads at a glance. Her ear beads were small and shiny, and there were no pierced ears. At this moment, with her floating pink cheeks, Huo Weilou’s throat rolled lightly. For a moment.
His eyes were deep and unpredictable, but a smile soon appeared, so he could take a moment to look at the rare ones in daily life, a little confused and embarrassed.
Although Bo Ruoyou feels a little at a loss, Huo Weilou’s so indifferent attitude makes her feel less embarrassed. She thinks that Huo Wei’s position is high and there are so many attendants around him. I am afraid that in his eyes, She is no different from Father Fu.
This thought made her mind refreshed. She straightened her back and turned around and said, “Men and women are just talents–“
She raised her eyes as she spoke, and at a glance she saw the half-open flap of Huo Weilou, her calm mind followed tightly, and she stumbled in her words, “Shi… Shi Cai went to the kitchen.”
She didn’t dare to look directly, so she shifted her gaze to the left to look at the moiré embroidered pillow on the side of Huo Wei Building. Whether she had never used medicine before, she found out when she went to the kitchen. She started taking the medicine in the afternoon on the day she prescribed the prescription, but after she took the medicine twice, the next morning, when she found Li Yuchang’s body, I started to vomit more than ever, and my heart palpitations and dizziness were quite serious.”
Huo Weilou saw Bo Ruoyou dare not look at her in the bottom of his eyes, and his smile became thicker, but after listening to what she said, she did not understand what she meant, “Drink your medicine, but it becomes more serious. ?”
Speaking of business affairs, Bo Ruoyou calmed down. She glanced at Huo Weilou and said, “It is not the case. The prescription prescribed by the people’s daughter is for clearing away heat and clearing orifice, and it is also used to suppress shock. There is talc and saltpeter in this medicine. Even though it can be used as medicine, it has three points of toxicity. When prescribing prescriptions on weekdays, the dosage must be stated, not overdose. According to the shipmen, they thought they were taking too much medicine, but the medicine jar is in the medicine. In front of him, Minnu took a closer look, but the dosage was correct.”
At this point, Huo Weilou’s eyes were frozen, “Where is the weird?”
Bo Ruoyou’s face turned straight, and her voice sank, “In addition to overdose for these symptoms, there is also a possibility that if the patient does not have fever and typhoid and takes this medicine, it will also cause discomfort. The symptom is that the medicine is three-point poison. She is not sick but taking medicine is equivalent to taking poison, so she vomits and palpitates.”
“Pretend to be sick without being sick?” Huo Weilou’s expression was cold.
Both of them looked stern, talented and charming. Bo Ruoyou nodded, “The girl was not sure, and asked her adoptive father. The adoptive father said that this prescription is indeed not to be used lightly, especially for this non-febrile, but it has always been People with cold body are more toxic.”
At this point, she tightened her eyebrows, “That day, Yueniang took the initiative to find the girl. When the girl went to see, she only saw Song Meiniang hot on her body and even a thin layer of sweat. She jumped into the river the night before. It is very likely to have typhoid fever. Therefore, there was no accident at the time when the civic girl saw the situation, and she prescribed a prescription without a careful examination. Now thinking about it, Song Meiniang and Yueniang were very likely to deceive the civic girl at the time.”
Huo Weilou had a cold look in his eyes, “Everyone knows that she jumped into the river, and that’s not enough. I have to let everyone know that she is extremely sick–“
Bo Ruoyou nodded, “She two are a little weird, but the girl has never doubted it, because the girl had visited her personally that day. Although she had not asked her pulse, the girl touched her forehead and it was really hot. Now that I want to come, before Yueniang came to look for the civic girls, they mostly used some methods to make fakes.”
If you want to make your body hot and sweaty, there is no way, you only need to cover it with a quilt for a while, and Yueniang takes the initiative to find her, which can ensure that this sick outfit is foolproof.
“Since she was not sick and pretended to be sick, on the night Li Yuchang died, Song Meiniang might not have been so sick. Such as being unable to go to the ground and fainting from time to time are all nonsense.” After a slight pause, Huo Wei said: “If so, Lu Qing was lying. That night, he saw Yueniang true, but it would be impossible to see Song Meiniang.”
Bo Ruoyou responded, “Lu Qing replied that day, quite a bit of a foreword, and he always looked at Song Meiniang. Perhaps he already knew that Song Meiniang had no other evidence, so he immediately responded to help her lie, Min Before the woman asked him, she saw that he looked a little weird…”
Huo Weilou thought a little, “It’s just that if this case was done by Song Meiniang, then she must be able to sing “Resurrection”, and there must be something that can force her to kill at this time. Liu Huiniang is for Chen Hanmo. , Then who is she for?”
“For Yueniang.” Bo Ruoyou said with confidence.
Huo Weilou raised his eyebrows, “This Hou had been suspicious of Yueniang before, but Song Meiniang only asked for a ransom. Her murderous mind was weaker than Yueniang, and although she treated Yueniang well, she was just a sister. How about Can you really kill for Yueniang?”
The actor in the troupe, Song Meiniang is considered to be the longest. She has not resisted for many years. Why is she killing people for the sake of a little Yueniang now?
The corners of Bo Ruoyou’s lips were slightly hesitant, but she still said, “If she just loves sisters, maybe Song Meiniang will not be murderous, but what if…they are not sisters, but mothers and daughters?”
“Mother and daughter?” Huo Weilou couldn’t help but straighten up.
Bo Ruoyou said earnestly: “Suitable was in the kitchen, and the women heard from the boatmen that after Song Meiniang vomited, she once blamed them for not having a good time in doing things. Just because Song Meiniang could not eat chestnuts, but eating this thing is like Poisoning usually causes suffocation and a rash, which can even be more serious.”
Huo Weilou was suspicious, and said thinly: “This situation is indeed weird, because chestnuts are ordinary food and non-toxic, but some people in the world really can’t stand chestnuts, just like some people naturally like or hate certain ingredients, but can’t People who eat chestnuts are also born. Shicaimin asked her adoptive father, and the adoptive father said that he had read a medical book, and the medical book mentioned that some people in the world cannot eat chestnuts, some cannot eat sea fish, and some others. Not drinking alcohol. Although there are not many such people, there are not many. Not only that, these symptoms seem to be passed on to their children.”
“And Shicai boatman said that not only Song Meiniang can’t eat chestnuts, but Yueniang can also not eat this thing. The girls thought, is it really such a coincidence that a pair of masters and apprentices in a theater troupe? And Qian Mingli said, said Yueniang was taken care of by Song Meiniang and grew up, so the people suspected that Yueniang was not Song Meiniang’s apprentice halfway through, and the two might have some blood relations.”
“If this is the case, then what Song Meiniang did for Yueniang can be explained.”
After Bo Ruoyou said this, he said: “The people are not sure, and there are not too many records about this blood-borne dietary disease.” At this point, Bo Ruoyou suddenly said: “I don’t know what the son of Ming knows. I don’t know this disease.”
Huo Weilou thought for a moment, got up and walked to the door to call Father Fu, and said, “Let Luke go to inquire about Yueniang’s life experience, and see how old she is in the Yuchun troupe theater garden, and let Guilan come here. trip.”
The boat was unstable these few days. Ming Guilan’s legs and feet were inconvenient, so he never walked a lot. Father Fu listened to the order and was about to call people, but when he looked up, he saw that Huo Weilou’s clothes were really open. His brows raised slightly, suspiciously. Looking at the Huo Wei Building, “Master Hou——” he nodded the position of his chest after speaking.
Huo Weilou frowned as if he was troublesome, and tightened the flap not so neatly.
Father Fu went to call Ming Guilan. Soon, the voice of a wheelchair sounded outside the door. As soon as the door opened, Ming Guilan was outside. Yuebaihua robe was added, warm and moist, like a jade, Bo Ruoyou saw him come alone. No attendants, hurriedly came forward to push the wheelchair.
Ming Guilan didn’t refuse, and entered the door with a smile: “Hou Master asked me to come, but what’s your order?”
Huo Weilou glanced at Bo Ruoyou and asked her to say, Bo Ruoyou said: “I don’t know the son, but many people in this world are taboo against certain foods. It is clear that the food is non-toxic, but after they eat it, they will have a lot of discomfort. The severe ones will die.”
Ming Guilan raised his brows slightly, “I know it naturally, but why would you ask about it?”
Bo Ruoyou said the words he had heard in the morning, Ming Guilan was slightly surprised, “Although this is a bit strange, it is not worth it. How can you think of her or having blood relatives?”
Bo Ruoyou said: “I heard similar words from my adoptive father and mother earlier, but the daughter of the country didn’t remember it really, so she came up. The daughter of the country asked her father. The father said that she did have this disease, and it would be passed on to her children. Descendants.”
A faint light flashed through Ming Guilan’s eyes, but he didn’t ask much. He just said: “It is true. I have read similar records in several medical books, but what is the crux of the matter? There is no explanation and no diagnosis and treatment. In medical books, most of them are recorded as strange stories, but when it comes to kinship, they are not passed down to children in a hundred and forty percent. It depends on Yueniang’s background.”
With Ming Guilan’s affirmation, he knew that Bo Ruoyou’s assumptions were not unfounded, and soon Luke went up to the third floor and replied: “Hou Ye, Yueniang has indeed been in Yuchun class since she was a child. I asked a few older attendants and Qian Mingli. They all said that in the spring of that year, Yueniang was sent to the garden as the daughter of a distant relative of Mr. Li. She was only a one-year-old baby at that time. Which distant relative was she? No one knew that since Yueniang was able to speak, she has been learning opera with the Song family, and her usual dress is better than others. After all, she is the first disciple of the Song family.”
Both Bo Ruoyou and Huo Weilou had dark eyes. Huo Weilou asked, “Where was Song Meiniang at that time?”
Luke was at a loss, “I haven’t asked this carefully…”
Huo Weilou stood up and pointed to the outer robe hanging by the wall. Father Fu immediately took the outer robe and changed his clothes when he saw this. “Bring the waiter who is suitable for you to ask, and Benhou will ask him personally.”
Now that he got such an important clue, Huo Weilou only felt that it was hopeful to solve the case, and naturally he didn’t delay half a minute.
Soon, three attendants, including Qian Mingli, were taken to Huo Wei Building.
When Qian Mingli asked about the origins of Yueniang and the Song family members, he said: “The Song family members were also around fifteen years old. She came on stage at the age of fourteen and was full of colors when she appeared on stage. But that year, when she sang and performed once, Everyone in Song broke their leg after falling off the stage, so they rested for more than half a year, but this did not affect her. The master valued her and naturally waited for her well. She was on stage again after more than half a year, and her effort was never lost. “
As soon as Qian Mingli said this, Huo Weilou asked: “After Song Meiniang was injured, was Yueniang sent to the theater?”
Qian Mingli nodded, “It is true, it was a year after she was injured.”
Huo Weilou said: “No one doubts Yueniang’s life experience?”
Qian Mingli was startled, “Master Hou said… Yueniang is Master Song…”
“No, it’s impossible. When everyone in Song was in full swing, how could they give birth to children at that time.” Seeing Huo Weilou’s stern eyes, Qian Mingli said again: “But at that time the villain was just a small man. The little servant doesn’t know what’s going on. The master built a special theater in which the actors and actresses live, and ordinary low-ranking people cannot enter.”
“Yueniang is in the theatrical troupe, is there any special treatment?”
Qian Mingli thought for a while, “When I was young, I didn’t give much treatment. It was just a distant relative and niece of the old man. Naturally, everyone also spoiled this little baby. On weekdays, the old man invited a maid to take it with him. Later, everyone in Song and Yueniang They are very kind, and then everyone in Song accepts Yueniang as an apprentice, so the status will naturally not be low…”
Qian Mingli became more and more frightened as he talked about it, as if he did not know about it.
“At that time, was there a literary guest in the troupe who had a good relationship with Song Meiniang?”
“This… the villain didn’t know what was going on at the time, but the troupe had changed a lot of roles. When everyone in Song first came to the stage, there were a few who sang well and played with her, and after that, they changed one after another, and many people sang. There was a slight difference in the acting method, and the master was unwilling. Everyone in Song was not harsh. Later, she also taught actor and childbirth, but there were many apprentices.”
Huo Weilou asked the other two older attendants again. What they said was almost the same as what Qian Mingli said. Although there was no one who knew what happened back then, Yueniang was born and hit Song Meiniang injured. In addition, both of them were injured. Not being able to eat chestnuts naturally connects the two of them together, but if Yueniang is the daughter of Song Meiniang, who is the father of that child?
If Liu Huiniang can know and cherish each other with Chen Hanmo, Song Meiniang can also cherish others, but how can Li Yuchang allow Song Meiniang to give birth to a daughter with her? But if Yueniang’s father is Li Yuchang, then Yueniang’s murderous intent will not be able to stand up. How can his biological father be so kind to his biological daughter?
When the three of Qian Mingli retired, Huo Weilou said solemnly: “If Yueniang’s father is Li Yuchang, this may change.”
Father Fu was also listening, hesitated for a moment after hearing the words, “Whether it will be the worst possible…”
Bo Ruoyou’s back chilled, and Huo Weilou said with a solemn eyes: “Bring Lu Qing.”
When Lu Qing arrived, his expression was a little more anxious than yesterday. After the salute, Lu Qing looked down at the place in front of him, without the sense of magnanimity as yesterday.
“You treat Song Meiniang really well?” Huo Weilou asked.
Lu Qing’s jaw slightly raised, “Natural.”
Huo Weilou said quietly: “Then what are you going to do? Now Li Yuchang is dead. Although you two are still in a death agreement, you have a lot of shackles. He died strangely. Is it because you and Song Meiniang conspired to kill him? ?”
Lu Qing’s complexion changed drastically. Yesterday he still questioned Song Meiniang and Yueniang. How did they find out about him today?
Lu Qing said hurriedly: “Naturally not, Hou Ye Mingjian, although the villain admires Sister Song, Sister Song… Sister Song knows that Li Yuchang will not let her go, so she dare not think about any promises to her in the future. “
Lu Qing said with a bitter expression, “Li Yuchang’s duet singing is not harsh. Someone has already redeemed her and left. Sister Song just wants to let the villain save enough money to leave Yuchun class earlier, she doesn’t. Will go.”
“But she had quarreled with Li Yuchang before, saying that she wanted to redeem herself.”
Lu Qing smiled miserably, “These are fake… Sister Song just doesn’t want to be on stage again, so she has angered Li Yuchang many times, but even if Li Yuchang is annoyed with her, she still doesn’t let her rest.”
Huo Weilou stared at him, “Then is it true or false that her voice fell?”
Lu Qing hesitated for a while and thought for a while. It seemed that this question had nothing to do with the case, so he said: “Sister Song is born with a good voice, and has been meticulously maintained for many years. Others have lost the beauty after twenty-three or four. But she is not like that. How could she lose her voice? She can keep singing as long as she wants…”
As Lu Qing was talking, she was obsessed with her face. Anyone could see that he not only admired Song Meiniang, but also admired and admired her talent in opera. Song Meiniang was both his master and his lover. So he looks very promising.
“Since this is the case, why did she jump into the river?” Huo Weilou said coldly, “It seems that you treat her seriously, but she treats you very often. If she remembers you, she will naturally not jump into the river in anger.”
Lu Qing was not irritated by these words. He smiled bitterly for a moment, “The villain knew this early in the morning. The villain is in Sister Song’s heart, even Yueniang can’t match it, but the villain doesn’t care. People admire her, don’t say that she still responds to the villain one or two, just ignore the villain, the villain still loves her.”
At this point, he was angry with two more points on his face, “The reason why she jumped into the river was because Li Yuchang persecuted her. Li Yuchang must be blamed for all this…”
Huo Weilou stared at Lu Qing, “But you said just now that it is not true that her voice fell down, and she did not want to be on the stage. That night, she jumped into the river. Give her a face, now listening to you, aren’t these exactly what he asked for?”
Where did Lu Qing think of going up this section, hearing Huo Weilou’s question like this, only then was extremely regretful, “She…then she…”
He didn’t seem to think why Song Meiniang jumped into the river. After turning his eyes for a long time without thinking of a reasonable remark, Huo Weilou asked again: “Did you see Song Meiniang that night?”
Lu Qing wanted to speak when the corner of his lips moved, but Huo Weilou suddenly said in a cold voice, “You’d better tell the truth, I think you are still in love and righteous, if there is a false statement before, I can let you go, but from now on, But there is one word that is false, and Ben Hou will not take it lightly.”
When Lu Qing was about to say something, his lips froze. As soon as he saw his look, Huo Weilou saw all the mockery in his eyes. When Lu Qing saw this, he knew that his temperament was not enough and he could not hide anything. He hung down. The head and back also buckled a bit, “Yes… the villain didn’t see Sister Song, and only talked to Yueniang. At the time, Yueniang said that Sister Song had already slept with the villain and left.”
Since she had never seen anyone with her own eyes, it was most likely that Song Meiniang did this deliberately so as to add a personal testimony to herself. Huo Weilou asked Lu Qing to be detained and asked how Liu Huiniang was last night.
Lu Ke said: “Liu Huiniang babbled in the middle of the night, and Yueniang and Song Meiniang were very quiet.”
Huo Weilou pondered for a moment, “Bring Yueniang to the first floor to take care of her in front of Song Meiniang.”
How Luke didn’t know what Huo Weilou meant, and he immediately left.
Huo Weilou knows the most. The relationship between Song Meiniang and Yueniang is very close, but if they are only sisters, Yueniang is not as important to her. But if the two are a mother and daughter, there is nothing more concerned about her than a daughter. .
Huo Weilou was condemning the heart. This time, Huo Weilou was condemning Song Meiniang as a mother. Although it was cruel, there was very little evidence in this case.
Not long after, Luke returned and she said, “Song Meiniang looked nervous when she saw Yueniang being taken away. She came forward to inquire, but her subordinate did not answer.”
Huo Weilou nodded and said, “Bring Liu Huiniang.”
The sky is already bright, the breeze on the river surface is fading, the fog clears, and the boat is moving slower and slower. The Changfeng Ferry is far away. If the case is not found to be abnormal, everyone in the Yuchun squad should disembark at this moment.
When Liu Huiniang entered the door, her makeup look was exactly the same as the night before. She was changed to the cabin and kept in custody for the whole night. There was no such thing as a depressed look on her face, and she even hummed a certain drama in her mouth.
“The folk girl pays homage to Lord Hou.”
Yingying saluted, when Liu Huiniang straightened up, her face was smiling. Not only did she look at Huo Weilou without fear, she also raised her chin, not wanting to hide her beauty with the frustration.
Huo Weilou has not spoken, and he does not have many ordinary murder cases, but he has dealt with many prison cases involving hundreds of officials. Many of the old foxes who have been in official circles are not easy to deal with, but Huo Weilou can be found and defeated every time. Their method, but Liu Huiniang at the moment, gave him a sense of self-satisfaction and fear of life and death.
For a moment, Huo Weilou said quietly: “It seems that you are sure that you will not be convicted.”
Liu Huiniang smiled softly, “The folk girls don’t understand what the master Hou is talking about. That night, everyone knows that folk girls sing in the opera, but the master fell into the river on the other side of the platform. Unless the folk girls have the technique of avatar, the master will What is the relationship between death and the girl?”
“Then do you think the murderer is Song Meiniang?” Huo Weilou was not angry at her look like this, on the contrary, he was calmer.
Liu Huiniang shook her head, showing disdain, as if she was still mocking Song Meiniang at this moment, “Who knows? She is not favored by her master, maybe she has murderous intentions? The girls dare not talk nonsense, let’s look at Master Hou and the officials How to find out.”
Lu Ke couldn’t stand it when she saw her, as if he was sure that they could not break the game.
Huo Weilou’s phoenix eyes narrowed as if he was thinking about something. At this time, Bo Ruo said quietly: “That night, you watched Li Yuchang walk towards the ship’s side step by step, and then fell into the river step by step. Is that also the expression? ?”
Liu Huiniang looked at Bo Ruoyou, she still had a determined look, “What is the girl talking about? When the master died, everyone knew what I was doing…”
“Everyone thinks you are singing in the room.” Bo Ruo quietly followed her words, but she suddenly changed her words, “But what if the person who sings in your room is not you at all?”
