Chapter 1011 Gossip
The boy subconsciously glanced at Ye Muyu, and saw that she was also frowning, holding a file in her hand, flipping through it a few times before putting it down, obviously having a headache for what was written on it.
The servant bowed his head, saluted, left the archives, and went straight to the main courtyard in the backyard.
"Master, madam, they are all in a bad mood because of the messy files, and they even asked the kitchen to send a lot of purging tea." The servant replied in a low voice.
After hearing this, County Magistrate Sun felt relieved, took a sip of tea, and waved him to continue looking at the news from the archives.
Aunt Gao was happy for a while, then got up again, walking around, her eyes full of worry: "Master, is there no news from the person you sent?"
"Are you really just calling Gao Rong to stop Chu Heng?" County magistrate Sun frowned, "I sent a lot of yamen servants out to look for them, but there was no news of them, and even Chu Heng didn't come back for three days. Is it your brother who made the move on his own initiative?"
No wonder magistrate Sun said that. He always knew that the brothers and sisters of Aunt Gao were bold. When they came to He County as the county magistrate, it was Aunt Gao who helped him subdue all the squires in the county. The talent in the county is like a fish in water, and he has also climbed up the relationship with Lin Zhizhou in the prefecture. Although he has been in the county government for five years, he will be steadily promoted next year. This is because he has no political achievements.
"It's possible." Aunt Gao frowned: "Wait a little longer, my brother will definitely not let himself or the master suffer."
Another two days passed.
Ye Muyu seldom goes to the dossier.
In the eyes of County Magistrate Sun and others, it means that they have given up.
Ye Muyu received Chu Heng's letter on the night of the third day.
Knowing that things were going well with him, she pretended to be more and more anxious on the surface, and even sent someone out to inquire about Chu Heng's news.
"Have you heard, Master Chu is missing."
"I know, Mr. Chu hasn't come back for five or six days, and Eunuch Ren has sent out the staff to find someone."
"Not only that, Mrs. Chu even sent out rewards to find someone. Now many bodyguards have taken up this job and gone to find someone."
"You said, is Master Chu not coming back?"
"Shhh, don't talk nonsense, you will lose your life if Eunuch Ren hears about it."
"What's the matter, this is our county government, and the whole county belongs to the master. Even if something happened to them in the county, it might have nothing to do with us. We can only blame them for their poor fortune."
Ye Muyu stood at the corner, listening silently, while behind him Cheng Qing's face was ashen.
"Ahem..."
Coughing sounded, and the housekeeper came out: "Shut up."
"Mrs. Chu." The housekeeper saluted Ye Muyu with a smile. If something happened to Chu Heng, Ye Muyu might be driven crazy looking at the smile on his face.
But Ye Muyu's reaction obviously disappointed him: "Don't be too polite."
After she responded lightly, she turned around and wanted to leave.
The butler was stunned, subconsciously stopped her and asked, "Madam Chu, are you going out?"
"Well, go and see if there is any news about the master." Ye Muyu's face was calm, making it impossible to see what she was thinking.
When the housekeeper heard that she was going out, his eyes flickered, but he pretended to comfort him: "Mrs. Chu, don't worry, Mrs. Chu is a lucky person, and nothing will happen."
Ye Muyu kept speeding, Cheng Qing followed closely behind, and went out the door.
"Housekeeper, Mrs. Chu is too cold-hearted. She is not sad at all when she hears about Master Chu's accident."
