Chapter 92 Yunyin Pavilion

This scene really surprised everyone.

The runners from Jingzhao Prefecture rushed to the bottom of the embroidery building, while others came to the outer corridor to look down.

Although this embroidery building has only two floors, it is much higher than ordinary houses. Looking down from above, you can see Xu Shan and Xiao Taoer, brother and sister, fallen on the stone ground in the yard, motionless, with blood slowly oozing out from under their bodies.

Zhu Yu looked at the two men falling to the ground and could only shake his head and sigh.

Logically speaking, falling from this height would not necessarily result in death, but the brother and sister did not know whether it was because of their great kung fu or bad luck, they both landed headfirst, not only with bloody heads but also with broken necks. There was no way they could survive, and they were dead as soon as they hit the ground.

This is indeed a bit strange.

Zhu Yu already had several questions in her mind, but Lu Qing beside her had already given her a look that told her to just watch the show and not say anything, so she naturally knew what to do and didn't say anything.

At this moment, Xu Shan and his sister jumped down from the building, which gave some confirmation to her previous secret guess.

However, this did not resolve the doubts in her heart, but made them even greater.

The yamen runners ran downstairs and after a careful inspection, they looked up and shouted to the Jingzhao Yin upstairs: "Sir, these two people fell to their death, not even a breath left!"

Jingzhao Yin breathed a sigh of relief, not knowing whether it was because he was helpless or secretly relieved.

"Forget it! Wrap their bodies with straw mats and throw them into the mass grave outside the city!" He waved to the yamen runners and retracted his head. What happened today was too terrible. Now it was finally over no matter what. He didn't want to look at it again.

Zhuang Zhi did not expect Xu Shan and Xiao Tao'er to behave like this. He seemed to be frightened and could not come to his senses for a long time. When Cao Tianbao was about to leave with Duke Yan, he suddenly came to his senses, stumbled to the front again, and knelt in front of Cao Tianbao.

"What are you going to do now, you bastard?!" Cao Tianbao's patience had almost reached its limit. These repeated reversals and sudden events had already exhausted his already limited patience. Seeing Zhuang Zhi rushing over and kneeling down again, he immediately became anxious. He grabbed Cao Chenfeng and pushed him towards Zhuang Zhi, "From now on, there will be no Cao Chenfeng in my Cao family. You can do whatever you want to do with him to vent your anger!"

From now on, Cao Chenfeng's life or death has nothing to do with me, Cao Tianbao!"

Cao Chenfeng was caught off guard and was pulled and pushed forward by his uncle, almost falling on Zhuang Zhi. He hurriedly got up and lay on the ground, but did not dare to beg for mercy.

From childhood to adulthood, although his uncle was extremely strict with him in martial arts training, he never said a harsh word to him or used violence against him otherwise.

Cao Chenfeng was frightened by the force of the grab and throw just now. His uncle's words made him feel cold in his heart. He was afraid that if he said one more word at this critical moment, he would anger his uncle even more. His uncle would pick him up and throw him down the stairs to die, and he would go to the underworld to become a pair of lifeless mandarin ducks with Zhuang Lanlan.

"General, I, Zhuang, deserve to die!" Zhuang Zhi was knocked to the ground by Cao Chenfeng. He quickly knelt again and spoke in a different tone, "I, Zhuang, was deceived by my servant and almost blamed Cao Chenfeng for my daughter's death. I was also obsessed with the idea of ​​officials protecting each other. Today, I took advantage of the chaos to sneak into the gift-giving team and disrupted the general's birthday.

The private exchange between my daughter and Cao Chenfeng was also due to Zhuang's fault for not educating her properly, so Mr. Cao cannot be blamed alone.

I originally wanted to seek an explanation because I believed that he was the murderer of my daughter and wanted to seek justice for her.

Now the real murderer has been found. I was wrong in blaming Master Cao, so everything that happened before was just a mistake on top of a mistake!
Zhuang said that if he had wrongly accused Master Cao and General Cao, he would be willing to bring all his family and servants to kowtow outside General Cao's door for three days!

Although Zhuang is just a businessman, he also knows that a man should keep his word. Tomorrow I will fulfill my promise. If the general still cannot forgive me, Zhuang is willing to bear the punishment! Cao Tianbao waved his hand impatiently: "Forget it! Let's end today's matter here! You go and bury your daughter. As for the matter of Cao Chenfeng, I will ask his parents to give your family an explanation.

Forget about the kowtow and apology, but from now on, don't ever appear in front of me again!"

After saying that, he no longer paid attention to other people, not even Duke Yan. He walked around Zhuang Zhi and Cao Chenfeng and left downstairs in a hurry.

When Zhu Yu followed Lu Qing downstairs, the bodies of Xu Shan and Xiao Tao'er had already been carried away by the yamen runners of Jingzhao Prefecture, leaving only a pool of blood in the yard.

When the group returned by boat and crossed the middle of the river, Zhu Yu stood at the stern of the boat and looked at the embroidered building. In the dimming sky, the embroidered building without lights looked like a tall ghost, lifeless. As the boat sailed away, it was gradually shrouded in the shadows of the woods behind and could no longer be seen clearly.

After boarding the boat and returning to the shore, Fu Lu and the carriage were still waiting there. When he saw Zhu Yu and Lu Qing getting off the boat, Fu Lu seemed to be afraid that they were alone and weak and would suffer a loss in front of Duke Yan and others, so he hurriedly came forward and sent the two of them to the carriage.

"Master, are we still going to General Cao's mansion?" Fu Lu sat in the front of the car and turned his head to ask Lu Qing who was in the car.

"I'm not going," Lu Qing stretched lazily in the carriage, "After all the commotion during the day, the guests have already left, and Cao Tianbao probably doesn't have the energy to organize a banquet.

We are here at this time, but it seems as if there is no food to eat in Xiaoyao Palace."

"Then...shall we go back now?" Fu Lu asked again.

"What are we going back for? The chef at home knows that I'm going out for a banquet today, so he won't prepare any meal for us." Lu Qing answered so naturally.

Zhu Yu looked at him speechlessly.

So after all this talk, Xiaoyao Palace really has no food to eat...

"Master, what are our plans now?" Obviously, Fu Lu was a little confused by what he said.

"At this time, I'm tired and hungry, so of course I should go to Yunyin Pavilion." Lu Qing replied.

"Oh..." Fu Lu responded subconsciously, and after a moment, "Ah...? Master, where did you say you were going...?"

Lu Qing lifted the curtain in front of him with the fan in his hand, frowned and looked at the talisman: "What? Are you too old to hear me now?
If that's the case, then I'll arrange for you and your elder brother to return home and retire!"

"Stop it, Grandpa! You're really joking!" Fu Lu said with a playful smile, "We two brothers are in our prime. Besides, you rescued us when we were little. There's no reason for us to go back to our hometown to retire!"

"Then stop talking nonsense and drive the carriage well." Lu Qing was not really annoyed with Fu Lu. He was more of a joker with him. Now he lowered the curtain, stuffed the fan into his arms, and closed his eyes to rest.

Fu Lu said no more and drove the carriage towards Yunyin Pavilion, feeling a little aggrieved and grumbling in his heart.

Can you blame him? Who would take their wife to that place for no reason?
