Chapter 244 Boiled Pork Slices (5)
"Because Miss Yuansan takes medicine and decoction all the year round, her maidservant also smells of herbs, so that even the little officials in the post station have an impression!" The guard standing in front of the two, Talking about what they saw after watching these days, "They haven't done anything these days, even the herbs are brought from Jiangling! They eat and live in the inn, except for going out to send letters home!"
"The little officials said that they have come to post a lot of letters these days. In addition to the fact that the maidservant who came to send the letters always smelled of herbs, what made them even more surprised was that the address to which these letters were sent was in the Inside Chang’an City!” said the guard, “Although they haven’t seen these letters waiting to be posted in the city, they are very few after all. After all, it’s not as fast as walking around to send letters to Chang’an City! Only those men and women who are in love with each other send love letters, and there is no one to help deliver them!"
"But it's not so frequent to post love letters. Sometimes there are as many as five or six letters a day!" When the guard said this, he thought of the expression of the post official, and his expression was a little weird. Fei and Liu Yuan coughed and continued, "The little official said that there is probably only one possibility for such a situation, that is, the sender of the letter must be a flirtatious person who sent it to many people, stepped on a few boats, and Seeing that the address on this letter changed back and forth, they decided that was the case, so they left an impression on the servant girl who smelled of herbs!"
"According to the little official, the maidservant started sending letters long before the Mid-Autumn Festival," the guard said, "According to the days, after the brothers and sisters of the Yuan family came to Chang'an, Miss Yuan San began to send letters from home!"
"Most of the time, the family letters are sent away, and only two letters are returned!" The guard said here, his expression became serious, "I heard that when the messenger delivered it, there was a rental sign outside the house. After inquiring, I found out that the person has moved away!"
The officer said while looking down at the two letters that were returned, the address on it made him shudder: "Isn't that address the address where Yuan Erlang bought someone to replace his life?"
After arresting Yuan Erlang and interrogating the matter that day, they searched for it, but they were all in vain. After asking, they found out that those people were renting a house, and they moved out.
"The little official wanted to talk to the maid about the return of these two letters, but every time the maid left the letter and the money and ran away!" said the guard, "One time the servant wanted to stop the waiter The servant girl talked about the family letter, but the servant girl ran quickly and replied from a distance, telling him to send the letter back to Jiangling properly, and don’t ask any more questions! The servant glanced at the address of Chang’an City on the letter. , not knowing whether to laugh or cry, only then did I realize that this maidservant is illiterate, and should be running errands for others!"
"But the little official doesn't find it strange. It's very common for young ladies to send love letters to hide things from their families. If you find an illiterate maidservant to run errands, you don't have to worry about revealing the secret!" The guard said, "The post station is busy. He threw the letter aside, and I didn't remember it until I found it!"
The two returned letters have been picked out at this time, Liu Yuan looked at Lin Fei: "Lin Shaoqing?"
Lin Fei gave a "hmm", opened one of the letters, glanced at it, and said, "It's a Tibetan acrostic! This one is 'Yuan Er was arrested'!"
Liu Yuan quickly picked up the remaining letter, opened it, and said in surprise, "This is 'business as usual'!"
The eight words "Yuan Er was arrested, business as usual" really make people tremble all over! Who would have thought that the weak Miss Yuansan was actually one of the culprits behind the scenes?
…
…
The interrogation in the hall came to a stalemate. Bai Zhu and Miss Yuan looked at each other with calm expressions.
Both parties know what the other is thinking, but there is no evidence.
At this moment, Lin Fei and Liu Yuan walked in from the outside, and directly threw the two returned letters in front of Miss Yuansan.
Miss Yuansan's indifferent face flashed a moment of panic, and before she could speak, Liu Yuan said: "Don't quibble, it's acrostic! Yuan Er was arrested, everything will be business as usual!"
What is "Yuan Er was arrested, business as usual"? A look of astonishment flashed across the faces of the two maidservants kneeling on the ground beside them!
Didn’t Ms. say that the letter was to be sent back to Jiangling’s family? Why does it say "Second Young Master was arrested" here? And what does "business as usual" mean?
The pale and weak face that was so familiar in the past suddenly became strange.
"Miss..." The two maidservants opened their mouths and murmured.
Looking at the letter thrown in front of her, Miss Yuansan lowered her eyelids, and after a while, she raised her eyes again and looked at them.
"When did you suspect me?" The smiling face was calm and indifferent, and he didn't even bother to look at the servant girl who grew up with him on the ground.
Miss Yuansan hugged the stove and said, "I pretend to be good. For so many years, no one in the family has doubted me. How did you find out?"
"How did you find out?" Lin Fei repeated her words, moved his feet, and walked to her in three steps at a time, then...suddenly stretched out his hand, and lifted her hand through the thick coat. stand up.
The sleeves of the autumn shirt in the overcoat slipped down, exposing a small part of his arm.
On the plain white arms, the dense red dots make people feel a little dizzy.
Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu couldn't help being taken aback, the two maidservants were about to speak, but Lin Fei spoke first: "It's prickly heat! It was covered!"
This Miss Yuan San is not as afraid of the cold as she appears!
As soon as these words came out, the two servants uttered in shock: "How is it possible, doctor... Miss... Mingming..."
Looking at the two startled maidservants who were speaking incoherently, Lin Fei withdrew his hand, and said calmly: "She was indeed born with a disease, but she pretended to be 80% of the three-point illness!"
Faced with the astonishment of the crowd, Miss Yuansan lowered her head and gave a soft sneer, slowly put down the stove in her hand, untied the heavy coat on her body, and was relieved when she threw both coats aside. Wiping his sweaty neck, he said, "This day, wearing these two coats is really hot!"
As she spoke, she raised her head and looked at Lin Fei: "Lin Shaoqing is really amazing, do you know why I did this?"
Is this... Thinking of what she said earlier, Bai Zhu hurriedly said: "You hate the members of the Yuan family, and think that the illness you were born with was caused by them!"
Miss Yuansan heard the words, chuckled lightly, nodded and said: "I really hate them, but it's not just for this reason!"
Then why? Everyone is puzzled.
Lin Fei glanced at her, and said lightly: "If it's only for that reason, you will only stir up trouble within the Yuan family, making it extremely difficult for others..."
Some people in this world are like this. If they are not doing well, they must make others have a worse life in order to follow her wishes.
"But after the marriage with Mr. Jiang from Qiandengpu was rescinded, you changed your mind. You think it is not enough to stir up trouble in the Yuan family!" Lin Fei said.
