Chapter 168 Yan Wan is stimulated ②
Meiruo: "I thought it was nothing, just a small-time villain. Brother, just kill him." She turned to look at Abao and said, "Abao, prepare some more silver to send to the man's family later."
Ah Bao bowed and said, "Yes."
Meiruo looked at Hu Richa and continued, "He's just an ordinary citizen. What are you afraid of, brother?"
Seeing Hu Richa's pale face, he originally thought that the man he killed was just a swindler and he could just beat him to death. However, it was not until his mother appeared that Hu Richa realized that his identity was not simple.
It turns out that Zuo Lu is the emperor's uncle, the younger brother of one of Hongli's concubines. If this is true, then he killed a member of the imperial family, and I'm afraid Hongli will not let him go.
Princess Bahrain was horrified and asked, "What should we do?"
Meiruo was shocked, but then she thought about it. She had the forty-nine tribes of Mongolia behind her, and now she was pregnant. She was also Hongli's favorite concubine. Even if her fourth brother killed the family members of the concubines in the harem, what would it matter? Yongqi was his biological son. Even though he was crippled by Jirimutu, Hongli never blamed them. Now he just accidentally killed a stranger. Could Hongli really kill them all? Thinking of this, Meiruo's heart was instantly relieved. She comforted him, "Don't worry, fourth brother. The emperor will definitely not punish you."
This was Huricha's first time killing someone, so it was impossible not to be nervous. Princess Bahrain knew her son's temperament well. Although he had a short temper, he had never intended to harm anyone. Her first reaction as a mother was that someone outside had corrupted her son. Huricha was covered in blood, and the princess quickly sent her maid to take him downstairs to wash.
Hu Richa's hands trembled, and it took him a long time to find his voice. He stammered, "I... Eji, sister, brother... you must save me."
Jirimutu patted his shoulder and said firmly, "Don't worry, fourth brother."
Only with Jirimutu's promise did Huricha feel at ease to leave.
At this moment, the Princess of Bahrain's mind was blank, all her thoughts stagnated after learning that Huricha had killed someone. She tried hard to think, but everything that was happening in reality kept her from concentrating.
Before coming to the Forbidden City, Balin Nianqin had told her that the people in the palace were unpredictable and that she should be careful at all times. However, she never expected that even with such caution, her son would still be framed.
Princess Balin: "What should we do now? If the emperor really investigates, can Huricha escape this disaster safely?"
But Jirimutu had already thought of a countermeasure.
Jirimutu said, "Eji, little sister, we can't stay in the Forbidden City any longer. We must send Huricha away before they report him to the emperor. If Huricha really kills the family of one of the emperor's favorite concubines, I'm afraid we won't be able to protect him."
Meiruo: "Yes, Eji."
Huricha was the most beloved son of the Princess of Bahrain, so she naturally did not dare to risk his life. If he returned to Bahrain safely, even if Hongli wanted to hold someone accountable, he would have to consider the forty-nine Mongolian tribes.
They move very quickly.
Meiruo took advantage of the fact that Hu Richa's murder outside the palace had not yet been completely exposed, and hurriedly packed her luggage to send him back to the Balin tribe.
Just before this, Jinzhong happened to receive a secret letter. After learning the contents of the letter, he immediately presented it to Hongli.
There is something good to watch now.
Sure enough, after reading the secret letter, Hongli immediately ordered a sedan chair to be brought to Xianfu Palace.
In Yongshou Palace, Yanwan was taking a nap in bed when she was suddenly woken up by a violent cry.
Ju Rui hurried out to check, and it turned out to be Mrs. Wei.
Madam Wei's hair was disheveled, and her body was stained with a lot of red liquid. Ju Rui's heart trembled. Although she didn't like Madam Wei's behavior, Madam Wei was Yan Wan's mother after all, so she had to respect this old lady. Ju Rui ran to Madam Wei with her skirt lifted and asked, "Madam, what's wrong with you?"
Ju Rui originally thought that Mrs. Wei had bumped into something on the way here and spilled paint on her body, but when she got closer and smelled it, she smelled a bloody smell.
Madam Wei ignored Ju Rui and walked into the hall crying and shouting.
"Daughter, my dear daughter, you have to speak for your mother. There is a bastard who killed Zorlu and my son..."
Upon hearing that Zuo Lu was dead, Yan Wan suddenly opened her eyes. That was her mother's precious son, the only male in the Wei family.
Yan Wan hurriedly climbed out of bed and, with Ju Rui's support, quickly walked over to Madam Wei. Her eyes widened, a look of disbelief and shock reflected in them. Although she didn't particularly like her brother, they were family after all, sharing the same blood. Even though they hadn't treated her well, she was still heartbroken upon learning of Zorlu's death.
After all, he was her only brother.
"Mother, what happened? You just said Zorlu was dead? How could he die out of nowhere?"
"This morning, when Zorlu went out, he told me that he was going to collect some silver and would be back soon, so he asked me to prepare lunch. As a result, it was already past noon and Zorlu still hadn't come back. I was afraid that something had happened to him, so I went to the street to look for him, but who knew..." As he spoke, tears fell like rain, as if he wanted to pour out all the hatred in his heart.
Mrs. Wei's tears kept falling, and her voice became hoarse and heavy. She continued, "When I found Zuolu, a man was riding on him and hitting him hard on the head. When I found someone to push him away, Zuolu was already dead..."
As she spoke, Mrs. Wei pounded her chest hard.
Yanwan's eyebrows rose, her eyes widened, and her hands clenched, revealing a deep sense of rage. Her entire body trembled, still in shock. She gasped and asked, "Mother, do you know who killed Zuolu?"
Yan Wan's question hit the nail on the head, and Madam Wei hurriedly wiped away her tears. She remembered that the man was dressed in foreign clothing and heard that he was the brother of a certain concubine in the palace. Since he was a palace man, it was natural that Yan Wan was more familiar with him, so she rushed to the palace to ask Yan Wan to give Zuo Lu justice.
He's wearing foreign clothing and is a man. Could this be Ying Fei's brother? Could it be Jirimutu or Huricha?
Ju Rui: "Oh no, that's bad. From the Mongolian tribe, only Concubine Ying's brother is in the palace. But I just heard from the palace servants that Concubine Ying's brother is leaving the palace today to return to the Balin tribe."
Madam Wei hurriedly asked, "What should we do? Did Zuo Lu die in vain?"
"Don't worry, mother. Let's go find Concubine Ying and ask her clearly."
Yan Wan changed her clothes, washed up briefly, and then walked towards Xianfu Palace.
At this time, Princess Bahrain had packed her beloved son's luggage and prepared a carriage, and was planning to send Hu Richa into the carriage.
