When Ning Shu arrived, the entire Yun residence was filled with nervousness. Many people surrounded the large blood letter and their eyes were filled with fear. Even Hui Mo was shocked when he first saw it. The large blood letter "Absolute" was arrogantly lying on the ground, like an evil spirit that escaped from hell.
Other than fearing the madam, Imperial Censor Yun, who had never been afraid of any corrupt officials, was now filled with panic and despair.
Last time it was "Danger", this time it was "Absolute". Next time, would it be "Death" or "Death"?
His Yun family's ancestral teachings were: Be elegant, be upright, and distinguish between right and wrong. What kind of ghost did he offend? Was it really Empress Zhou who came to take his life? But what kind of mistake did his son make?
Madam Yun, who had always been valiant, stood in front of Cloud Leaf's bed, quietly not saying a word until she saw Ning Shu appear. She suddenly jumped up: "You, you're here. Quickly come and take a look, what is going on? Why is it like this? Since you can find Ruan Chang 'an, you must be able to decipher these things, right? Who is the one who is pretending to be a ghost? Hurry, hurry … "
When she said the last sentence, she tightly grasped Ning Shu's sleeve and cried.
Madam Yun cried and cried until she collapsed. Yun Ruohui immediately helped her up and then sent her to the East Warm Pavilion to rest with Imperial Censor Yun.
The ground that Madam Yun was holding did not hurt, but it was boiling hot. Ning Shu silently lowered her head to look at the large blood letter that appeared on the ground without anyone noticing.
"How long ago was the ground swept?" She asked.
After a long while, a brave servant girl stood up and sobbed: "Reporting … reporting to Lady Ning … half an hour ago, this servant personally swept the ground. After cleaning, there was really nothing on the ground. Qing Mei and Qing Yue can testify for me, this servant has nothing to do with this …"
Ning Shu raised her hand, indicating for her not to make a sound. Then, her cold and calm gaze slowly swept over everyone's faces. It swept over these servant girls, swept over Imperial Censor Yun, Madam Yun, Yun Ruohui, and finally landed on the unconscious Cloud Leaf on the couch.
"So, you feel like you've reached a bottleneck?"
The nights in the South Pacifying King's Mansion were always warmer than other places. The gurgling water flowed from the bamboo pipes into the Bamboo Mirror (Note 1), which was then scooped up by Xiahou Qing and slowly poured into the Wind Mantis (Note 2). Tonight, Xiahou Qing did not wear his fox fur coat. He only wore a black cloak on the outside. Under the candlelight, the red plum blossoms on his snow-white neck looked like blood.
The red plum blossom on his neck was too eye-catching, almost causing her to be lost in thought.
"Yes." She took off the veil hat on her head and handed it to the servant girl. Then, she sat opposite Xiahou Qing and sighed. Her expression was a little distressed, and she told him what she had discovered in the past two days.
"According to Chun Niang, Niinu set out to the capital five months ago. According to the distance between Qingzhou and the capital, it would take at least five days and at most half a month to arrive. However, I searched the Ministry of Revenue for more than two hours and found a total of 247 people who came to the capital from Qingzhou in the past six months. Among them, none of them were called Niinu. However, I did find this living contract signed by her and the brothel mother of the pleasure boat in the Musical House's register. The signature was: Niinu, December 10, Year 24 of Natural Selection. "
"When I found this, I felt very strange, so I continued to search, starting from the most recent time. I searched the Ministry of Revenue with Huimo for an entire night and finally found her name and time of arrival: May, Year 23 of Natural Selection. This means that she arrived in the capital two years ago. "
"Why would Niinu lie to Chun Niang about this matter? Also, she has been in the capital for nearly two years. Why did she only start to look for people recently? Where was she during the blank period of more than a year? "
