It was already late in the night, so when Bai Yixuan rushed over to the official palace, there were only a few people there. Fortunately, she was very familiar with these officials before she arrived, so she directly went to look for one of the yamen s.
The yamen was called Hou Hai and Bai Yixuan had been calling him Little Monkey the whole time, "Little Monkey, tell me, how did my friend get caught and sent in?"
"Bai Er xiaojie, which friend of yours is this? I'll get them to take care of him now." Hou Hai immediately said.
"Mu Yefan, did you capture him today?"
"I have an impression of this person. Aiyo, this is a bit troublesome, but he has committed murder. Bai Er xiaojie, when did you have such a friend?"
"Murder crime, who did he kill? When will he be promoted to a higher level? Can I go see him now?"
"I'm not sure about that, but the person who came to report was a friend of our lord. She said that her husband had been missing for a long time, and then her husband's body was found on a mountain not too long ago. He should have been dead for a long time, but her wife said that her husband had a very important key missing."
"Then what does this have to do with A Mu?" Bai Yixuan did not understand.
"That's because that's the only person living on the mountain. There are very few people who go there, and the hunting place on the back mountain is even more dangerous. Isn't that friend of yours a hunter?"
"Because of this?" Although this was what Bai Yixuan said on the surface, but she suddenly recalled the time he went hunting with Mu Yefan, the corpse hanging on the tree.
Then, she and Mu Yefan buried the body, because the body committed suicide, there was no official reporting it. At that time, it was Mu Yefan who stopped them, but how did that body get found, and how was it dug out by someone in the forest?
At that time, he and A Mu did not see any keys on that person's body.
"Little Monkey, can I go see him?"
"That's against the rules. You know, the current Lord is the Lord Xiao, right …"
"I know, but... Little Monkey begs you. "
"Second Miss, don't beg me. If it's you, I can agree to it. All of the brothers know you, anyways."
"Thank you, little monkey. Your wife doesn't lack clothes. Come and get them from my house." Bai Yixuan hurriedly crawled inside, and walked all the way to the imperial dungeon. It wasn't the first time Bai Yixuan had been there, so she knew the way, and the people inside all knew who Bai Yixuan was, but they didn't say anything when they saw the little monkey behind him.
Bai Yixuan looked at them gratefully, "Brothers, if you want to drink, you can go to my Bai Family's winery and drink as much as you want."
The little monkey had already brought Bai Yixuan to the cell that held Mu Yefan. At this moment, Mu Yefan's eyes were tightly shut, and his body was trembling slightly.
"Little monkey, you used torture on him?"
"No, Second Miss. Did we capture this brat and lock him up?"
"Who else came?"
"Who else?" The little monkey looked at jailer. The jailer s looked at each other and shook their heads at last.
"Let me go in and see him." Bai Yixuan looked anxiously at Hou Hai, and a few jailer s behind him hesitated for a moment before taking out their keys. The door was opened by Bai Yixuan, and he entered, and she laid on the straw hat with her clothes still on. Bai Yixuan seemed to not see anything out of the ordinary when she saw Hou Hai today, but when she went to touch Mu Yefan's veins, she realized that Mu Yefan had been poisoned.
"What's going on? He was poisoned? What did he eat?"
One of the slightly plump jailer stepped forward, "He only drank a bowl of tea and didn't eat anything. We also didn't see anyone come to see him.
"Second Miss, is this serious? Did your friend commit suicide because he knew he made a mistake?"
"Impossible." Bai Yixuan stood up, she took out the spring water from her waist and fed it to Mu Yefan. She did not know what this poison was, but it was most probably a life torturing poison, and not someone who truly wanted to live. Just who did Mu Yefan offend, and who was torturing him now?
"Cheng Hui, has no one really come before?"
The fat jailer was called Cheng Gang, when Bai Yixuan said this, he immediately had a bitter face, "There's really no one here, second lady. That bowl of water was even given to him by Song Yi, unless there's a ghost amongst us."
He seemed to still be in pain, as he slightly frowned. Opening his eyes, he saw Bai Yixuan's face which was just inches away from him, as well as the worry in his eyes that was about to pop out.
"Xiao Bai..." He coughed a few times. "You're here."
"Just what is going on? That person isn't us …"
"Shh …" I don't know what's going on, but there must be something wrong with that person's family. "
Bai Yixuan now did not want to know who was the culprit behind this, "Then what happened to you? How did you get poisoned? Who poisoned you? "
Mu Yefan shook his head, "I'm poisoned?"
"Don't you feel uncomfortable?" Bai Yixuan was speechless.
"Indeed, it's a little …"
"Did you know you fainted just now?"
"I think I did feel a little dizzy a moment ago."
"A Mu..."
"Second Miss, it's better if you leave quickly. If someone comes by later, we won't be able to explain ourselves. We'll be promoted tomorrow, you can come back later."
Bai Yixuan knew that staying in there for such a long period of time was already hard enough to force them, and it was really not their problem. Bai Yixuan knew that she should leave now, but she was still worried about Mu Yefan's safety.
Furthermore, why would Mu Yefan be involved in this case? That person was obviously buried together with A Mu, and how did he get dug out from the ground. Who would know that that person's corpse was on top of this mountain?
After thanking him, Bai Yixuan decided to leave the whole pot of spring water to Mu Yefan, and told him to drink a little if she felt unwell, and even said this in his ear.
Bai Yixuan only felt that under the gloomy atmosphere of the prison, Mu Yefan seemed to be even thinner and thinner. There were also the contents in her eyes, perhaps Mu Yefan did not tell him something.
When Bai Yixuan returned home at night, she could tell that something was wrong with Family sister. As she walked, she was pondering about something, and she almost bumped into a table, startling Bai Yihui.
"Xuan Er, what's wrong with you?"
"I'm fine, brother, A Mu was captured by the officials, and someone accused him of killing someone."
"What did you say?" Is the killing of Ye Fan real or fake? Has he been wronged, or what's going on? " Bai Yihui was shocked. His originally happy mood from when his father agreed to let him go to the capital had completely vanished, and Bai Yizhao who came out of nowhere shouted loudly, "Second sister, what did you say?
Bai Yixuan nodded her head, "I just went to the County Yamen to see A Mu, but A Mu's condition isn't very good. He seems to have been poisoned."
"What, nothing happened to the Ye every elder brother?"
"It's fine, I gave him the antidote, but this is very strange."
"Second sister, did Ye every elder brother really kill someone, or was he wronged?"
"I'm not too sure about this either. It's a pity that I don't have the time to clarify it today, so I'll have to ask it again tomorrow."
"Has Ye Fan's past been brought to light?" Bai Yihui was a little hesitant.
"No." Bai Yixuan shook her head, "I'm also involved in this matter."
"Xuan Er, what's going on with you and Ye Fan?"
"It's like this. I once went hunting with A Mu, probably last winter. Then, I saw a dead person on the mountain."
"And then."
Initially, I did not know how to deal with him. A Mu told me that there was no need to report him to the officials, we can just bury him at that place, but he was a suicidal person anyway, and I don't know if he had any relatives or not.
"And then?"
"There's no 'then', I forgot about it after we buried him. If you ask me where I buried that person, I won't be able to remember it at all, so this is the strangest part of the matter, and that is that the corpse has now been dug out by someone. Then, someone would say that it was done by A Mu, because there was only A Mu on the mountain, and I have been dead for at least a month when A Mu and I found the body.
"Second sister, you're scaring me."
Last winter, it had already been a year. Who was the one who discovered it, and like the officials said, other than A Mu, no one else was able to enter, because the back of the mountain is extremely steep, and only someone as capable as A Mu is able to enter, if others were to enter, they might encounter danger.
Bai Yizhao nodded his head in agreement, "Second sister, I agree, that mountain is indeed very dangerous. If it wasn't for Ye every elder brother leading me, I wouldn't dare to go in."
"The first time I discovered the Wild silkworm was also in that mountain, and I was injured by A Mu's trap. Even if there was no A Mu's trap, there was still danger lurking in every corner of the mountain.
"Second sister, the more you talk, the more scary it is."
I'm not trying to scare you, I'm speaking the truth, I feel like there's no way to explain it, and who actually poisoned A Mu, and the poison that was administered isn't a fatal one at all, but a torture medicine. I know all the officials there, but in the end, no one gave me an explanation.
"Second sister, who reported the crime?"
At that time, A Mu and I had thought that that person did not have any relatives, what was going on? Why did such a thing happen, did A Mu offend someone or did he have a grudge with A Mu? Furthermore, I feel that A Mu definitely did not tell me a lot of things, but he was not willing to say anything.
