Chapter 168 She really has a lot of secrets
Lu Xiaoyun had received guidance from Lu Yuanming and was familiar with the boxing and kicking skills that defenders and border troops from various places were good at.
The tricks used by these two people looked very similar to those used by the Imperial Guards in the capital.
So, are they from the capital city?
Qi Yunxuan?
Lu Xiaoyun quickly cut through the mess and subdued the two men.
Lu Xiaoyun didn't bother to waste his efforts and directly hypnotized them.
The result surprised Lu Xiaoyun, but it was also expected.
Lu Huaixue...
This reborn woman has so many secrets!
I actually know that there are so many gold, silver and jewelry hidden here in the General's Mansion.
But Lu Xiaoyun couldn't understand why Lu Huaixue didn't think of a way to take his things away when he came to the northwest?
Are you guarding against Qi Yunxuan?
It seems that Lu Huaixue doesn't completely trust Qi Yunxuan.
In this case, Lu Xiaoyun became more confident in taking the things as his own.
Lu Xiaoyun didn't kill these two people, he just hypnotized them into seeing him.
When Lu Huaixue knew that the treasure in the northwest was gone, I wonder how angry he would be? Lu Huaixue was unhappy, and Lu Xiaoyun was happy.
Lu Xiaoyun also searched the front yard and found nothing. She happily returned to the Yang Mansion with her windfall and slept until dawn.
The next day.
Lu Xiaoyun went to see Mrs. Yang in high spirits.
"Grandma Yang, after breakfast, why don't you accompany me to the General's Mansion?" Lu Xiaoyun said, "I originally wanted to explore at night last night, but I didn't expect that I slept until dawn. After thinking about it, if someone is really pretending to be a ghost,
You can also find clues during the day."
"Okay, let's have breakfast first."
Mrs. Yang had no doubt about his presence and agreed without thinking.
But before they could finish their breakfast, the old man guarding the General's Mansion hurriedly came to Yang's Mansion.
"Old Madam, this morning, the northwest side courtyard of the General's Mansion suddenly flooded. The fire was too fierce. I tried my best to save both sides of the courtyard from being burned, but the side courtyard has been burned to ashes."
"What?" Mrs. Yang stood up quickly.
Lu Xiaoyun also looked surprised, "Could it be that the news that we knew about Xiaojiu's poisoning spread, and the people hiding in the General's Mansion were afraid of being found, so they destroyed the evidence and fled?"
"You go over first and don't let anyone disturb the side courtyard. I'll be there in a moment."
"Yes, old lady."
After the old man went out, Mrs. Yang looked at Lu Xiaoyun and said, "We'll go over after eating later. You eat slowly and don't be in a hurry. The General's Mansion can't escape there anyway."
"Yeah." Lu Xiaoyun nodded.
Did she overlook something last night?
Lu Xiaoyun was puzzled. If he set this fire, wouldn't it mean that there were three hundred taels of silver in this place?
However, Lu Xiaoyun quickly retracted his thoughts. Apart from life and death, the world is as big as the sky and the earth, and it is no bigger than cooking.
After breakfast, Lu Xiaoyun first went to see Yang Shaoyu.
Yang Shaoyu's complexion was much better than yesterday, but it might be because he was feeling uncomfortable and kept humming.
Mrs. Zhu probably didn't sleep all night, and her eyes were black and blue. She was holding her daughter, worried and haggard.
"Second Aunt Yang, you'd better go and have a rest, you won't be able to hold on like this." Lu Xiaoyun advised her.
It's okay if I don't say it. Zhu's tears fell down when he mentioned it: "Looking at Xiaojiu like this, how could I sleep? If I hadn't been careless, how could I have allowed the evil people to take advantage of the loophole and make Xiaojiu suffer so much..."
"People's hearts are separated from each other. Even if you take every precaution, it is impossible to completely prevent it. Xiaojiu is no longer in danger. If you take good care of yourself in the future, you can always recover. But if you get the root cause of the disease, let Xiaojiu know in the future.
Oh, Xiaojiu is feeling distressed as well?"
"But only by looking at Xiaojiu can I feel at ease."
"well."
Lu Xiaoyun sighed and took out the silver needle, "Then you and Xiaojiu should sleep for a while."
She pricked Yang Shaoyu in a few places, then patted Yang Shaoyu gently and hummed the tune she used to coax the baby. Yang Shaoyu gradually calmed down and fell asleep after a while.
"Second Aunt Yang, you should also take a nap, don't burn yourself out." Lu Xiaoyun took back the silver needle and said warmly.
Seeing this, Mrs. Zhu nodded, "Okay."
"No matter when you are alive, you can survive. Do what you want to do, and don't worry about your own life. Mothers love their children very much, but if they want to watch their children grow up, they must first become a big support for their children.
Tree."
"I understand, so thank you for saving our mother and daughter again."
"Some people are destined to be together. This is how we are. Don't say thank you and have a good rest."
"Um."
Seeing Zhu lying down, Lu Xiaoyun left the room.
After going out, Mrs. Yang said: "The two of them have been married for many years before giving birth to Xiaojiu. But Xiaojiu has a hard life and has suffered again and again. If I hadn't met you, I'm afraid..."
He died in exile long ago.
The Yang family is now depleted, and Mrs. Yang loves Yang Shaoyu no less than Yang Shaobin and Yang Shaojun.
But she couldn't show too much. The Yang family relied on her to support her, so she could only endure it no matter how sad it was.
"I still say what I said, Xiaojiu and I are destined, maybe I was born to be Xiaojiu's sister." Lu Xiaoyun smiled to ease the atmosphere.
Madam Yang looked at Lu Xiaoyun lovingly, saying that this child was no better than her granddaughter. Even though she suffered so many injustices, she was still so considerate, considerate, and never blamed others. The Lu family was really like smoke rising from their ancestral graves.
, got such a child.
She does not expect her granddaughter to be as capable as Lu Xiaoyun, but she hopes that her granddaughter can be as optimistic and cheerful as Lu Xiaoyun, not to be knocked down no matter what adversity she encounters, and to be strong and brave.
"You are a good child." Mrs. Yang said softly, "It is also our Yang family that is lucky to have your help."
"We will all be blessed."
"Yeah, they can do it all."
…
While they were talking, they arrived at the general's mansion.
Because Mrs. Yang didn't let her report it to the officials, the officials just pretended that they didn't know about it.
The old man had been standing guard at the door. When he saw Lu Xiaoyun and Mrs. Yang getting off the carriage, he immediately went to greet them.
"Let's go." Mrs. Yang lost her previous gentleness on the carriage and looked extremely serious.
The old man led the way and talked about traveling by water.
Lu Xiaoyun interrupted when he heard it, "You mean, you didn't know until the partial hospital was half burned?"
"Yes, this old slave is easily awakened at night, but I don't know why he slept so deeply last night. This is because I neglected my duty. Please forgive me, Madam."
"That's it, no one lives here, so if it burns, it will burn. Fortunately, the fire did not get out of hand. However, it is true that you were negligent in your duties, and you will be deducted a month's payment."
"Thank you, old lady, for your kindness."
The old man finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Do you have a drinking habit?"
"The old slave never drinks during vigil."
"oh."
Lu Xiaoyun just asked casually.
When she sneaked into the general's mansion last night, the old man was indeed guarding the gate carefully.
And those two people did come to Yang Mansion last night.
But they didn't do anything, Lu Xiaoyun just let them go, but he didn't expect that they would burn the side courtyard.
Of course, Lu Xiaoyun did not completely believe what they said in the secret room and had a backup plan.
Chapter completed!
