was assassinated inexplicably, Qin Huai's eyebrows were so wrinkled that they could catch a fly. When Chijia brought someone over, he had already protected Ayu in his arms, covered Ayu's eyes, and turned her back to several corpses on the ground.
"See me when you're done."
Chi Jia and the others saw Qin Huai's face cold, knowing that the young master must be in a good mood now, and hurriedly knelt down and responded, "Yes."
When they left under **** and returned to the outside of Rinkong City, Ayu was still holding the arrow in his hand and was studying it repeatedly.
Wang Wulang performed his light work and ran over, pulled Ayu from Qin Huai's side, and turned the person around several times, looking and looking.
I was relieved to find that nothing happened.
"Scared me to death. I saw Qin Huai's guards all running away. I guessed that something must have happened on your side." Wang Wulang looked at Qin Huai dissatisfiedly, "It must be your fault. , Ayu has always had good luck, you have followed her for the past few years, and see, her luck has deteriorated!"
Since Ayu opened up a little, there are always some people who don't have long eyes, and regardless of whether Ayu is still a little girl, there are often hooligans to harass her.
After Qin Huai helped him to drive a few times, he stuck to Ayu's side.
Wang Goro, the older brother, is jealous when he sees it.
doesn't even like Qin Huai very much.
Obviously she is the younger sister who will marry later, and she feels inexplicably, as if she has lost it now.
"Ayu, where did you get that arrow from?" Wang Qilang noticed what was in Ayu's hand.
Ayu handed the arrow to Wang Qilang: "Brother Qi, haven't you studied weapons before, can you tell which workshop did this?"
Wang Qilang doesn't like to fight, but he likes to study weapons, and he did it on purpose.
"Have you met an assassin?" Wang Qilang took it over and looked at it, then he blurted out, "The craftsmanship of this handle is not like that of Wangbei County, but it is a bit like the handwriting of Wangnan County, do you remember, we On the last night in Wangnan County, I accidentally found a team of smuggling weapons. The arrows they use are very similar to this one. Look at this outline, there is a curve, and a red mark is engraved at the end, which is usually not noticed. —”
Hearing Wang Qilang say this, everyone remembered that there were such a group of people at that time, and the weapons they smuggled were not too many, and they could support about 100 people.
At that time, everyone's attention was on finding the person behind him. Except for Wang Qilang, no one really studied what the weapons of those people looked like.
"Meaning, Ayu and the others were assassinated by the remnants of this group just now?" Wang Wulang looked at Qin Huai a little apologetically, he had just lost his temper at Qin Huai.
If it was that group of people, it would not really be Qin Huai's fault, because Wang Wulang first discovered them.
At this time, Wang Saburo also came. He was the calmest among the group of people. Wang Saburo, who was very lively in the past, was almost 20 years old this year, and he had a brother-like bearing.
"Don't jump to conclusions so quickly, there are a lot of people here, we should help Ning Gongzi to appease this group of refugees first, and then go to an inn in Rinkong City, and have a good discussion." Wang Saburo made a final decision.
The refugees were very coaxed. They ate wild vegetables and hot porridge. Seeing that the nobles did not eat well, it was also wild vegetable and mushroom soup. With the porridge, they felt a lot more balanced. (The game from Chijia is useless)
When Young Master Ning learned that Qin Huai and Ayu were assassinated, he untied the token from his waist and handed it to Ayu: "Don't go to the inn, go to Liu Zhifu in Linkong City, he and my father are close friends, I I wrote him a letter early and introduced you, and he will definitely not treat you badly."
Ayu did not refuse: "Then we will go to the government office first, and you can come over later."
A group of them entered the city and went straight to the government office.
Liu Zhifu was very happy to receive them. The rooms were arranged the best, and there was an extraordinarily exquisite small yard.
It is said that Liu Zhifu spent his own salary and created it little by little.
is not rich, but very sentimental.
At first, Ayu thought that Liu Zhifu was so good to them because of the Wei county guard's sake. Later, he found out that he was grateful for them for saving Ning Gongzi.
It turned out that Liu Zhifu's daughter and Ning Gongzi had a marriage contract, and they should have gotten married. As a result, Ning Gongzi disappeared. His daughter refused to quit the marriage, saying that she would be a widow for the rest of her life.
Now that Young Master Ning is alive and kicking, no matter what he has been through, his daughter is always saved, how could he not thank a few people?
"Elf, you said that if we told Liu Zhifu about the assassin, would he help us?" When returning to the room for a short rest, Ayu asked the group in the space.
Although she is actually ten and a half years old now, and she is very intelligent, her ability to know people is still the same as before, and she is much more defensive about people, but she still believes that human nature is inherently good.
In her eyes, there are not many bad people in the world.
[I just sorted it out. He has been the prefect of Rinkong City for nine years, and his reputation has always been very good. He is a good person in the traditional sense. 】
【By the way, he is still an infatuated species, only guarding a lady. The prefect's wife only gave birth to one daughter, and she didn't have any more children. He still has a good relationship with his wife. 】
Ayu probably understands that people who treat their wives very well, and there is no patriarchal preference that is popular nowadays, it seems that they belong to the good people camp.
At least, he is a good official.
So after Ayu went to meet Qin Huai and his brothers, he said to them, "We should leave it to professionals to solve the case. We will tell Liu Zhifu and let him check what's going on."
"Can Liu Zhifu help us?" Wang Wulang was a little unsure.
They also met some corrupt officials and evil officials along the way. They were truly lawless and did not do practical things for the people at all.
"This is what he should be in charge of." Wang Saburo said, "Ayu is right, let's leave it to a professional. Just taking advantage of this time, we can visit Rinkong City to see if there is anything else. Specialties, I can bring them back to everyone."
In fact, they have already bought enough specialties, but as for gifts, who would think too much?
They took Ayu out for a few years. Every time they received a letter from her family who sent it to the inn in advance, half of the content was asking about Ayu, indicating that her family already missed her very much.
Bring more gifts back, and remember them more.
Ayu also wanted to go out with her, but Wang Qilang kept her in the yamen because the assassin was not caught.
She and Qin Huai took Arrow, Chijia and others along to find Liu Zhifu.
Knowing that they were assassinated outside the city, Liu Zhifu was so angry that his beard was going up: "It's not reasonable, they have done something wrong, and they dare to assassinate them openly, because they want to rebel!"
He immediately said that he must investigate this matter thoroughly and give them an explanation.
When Liu Zhifu left in a fit of indignation, Qin Huai looked at A Yu, who was obviously absent-minded, and asked her, "I just saw a little lamb raised in the backyard, it looks like a lamb, do you want to see it? Look?"
Ayu's eyes lit up instantly: "Really, could it be a lamb's cub, let's go and see!"
As a result, before they got to the yard, they heard a "pop" and the sound of something heavy falling into the water.
Then, a female voice shouted in panic: "Come on, come on, our lady has fallen into the water! Come and help!"
There was also a soft and weak female voice, saying from the side: "How can this be, my sister is going to get married soon, if she is rescued by a man—"
"None of us know water..."
Ayu immediately looked at the dumplings behind him: "Sister Tangyuan."
"Yes." The dumplings knew how to use water and were very good at it, so they ran quickly in the direction the sound came from.
After a while, A Yu walked over and saw a dying girl, being supported and leaning against a willow tree. He was covered with a dumpling jacket.
Fortunately, the cold spring is still here, and the dumplings are also thickly dressed so that nothing is missed.
Someone tried to get close to her, but Tang Yuan stared at her with one look.
"Which girl are you, you are so rude, get out of the way!" There was a man dressed as a rich lady, covering his nose and frowning at the dumplings.
Ayu saw that someone was about to raise her hand to play glutinous rice balls, she immediately raised her voice: "It's a cold day, ladies and gentlemen, are you here to play a house fight game?"
