On the bullock cart, a middle-aged couple hugged each other, looked at the road outside, and urged the driver: "Brother, can you hurry up?"
The driver sighed: "Oh, this is an ox cart, not a horse cart, so it has to be so fast. But, have you really asked clearly? Is there really news about Yu'er in the city?"
The husband of the middle-aged couple hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, the man clearly said that my Yu'er is in the Yamen, and Yu'er has not been seen for a year. We should be dead, and we can't imagine that we are still alive! Brother, I beg you to hurry up, we'd better arrive before dawn, and go in as soon as the city gate opens."
The driver also knew that the two were eager to beg for a girl, so they stopped talking and urged the old cow to speed up.
Speaking of which, his little niece was only thirteen years old, and she was still at the age of a flower bone. She only went to the city once to participate in the Lantern Festival and never came back.
It was reported to the official and a case was filed, but it has been more than a year, but there is no news at all.
Everyone in the village said that 80% of them were abducted to other places to sell, and Yu'er's parents were depressed for a whole year.
But just last night, a messenger came outside, saying that he had found Yu'er, and that he was in the Yamen of Fucheng.
However, the man didn't say why it was in the yamen.
But as long as you can find someone, it doesn't matter where Yu'er is, isn't it just going to the city, walking in a bullock cart all night, if you go slowly, you can always get there in the end.
The next day, when Liu Wei woke up, she felt pain and numbness in her arm.
Liu Wei got up uncomfortably, stretched her waist, turned her head, and saw Xiao Li biting her fingers under the quilt, sleeping soundly and sweetly, the quilt was kicked aside.
Looking at Shi Chen, Liu Wei rubbed his eyes, put a quilt on his son, and went to wash up.
Pearl was also awakened by the big movement of covering the quilt, her dark head poked out from Xiaoli's pillow, and she lazily called out: "Jie."
Liu Wei touched it, and Pearl was completely awake. Her black eyes blinked, she straightened up, shook her feathers, flapped her wings, landed on Liu Wei's shoulder, tilted her head, He called out again: "Jie?"
Liu Wei walked outside with a towel, and replied casually, "Well, I came in to sleep last night."
Pearl called again: "Jie Jie Jie?"
Liu Wei scratched Pearl's head: "You sleep so deeply, you don't even know the sky is falling."
Pearl buried her head under her wings in shame, thought for a while, raised her head again, and rubbed Liu Wei's ear with the tip of her mouth coquettishly.
Liu Wei smiled and said, "I don't blame you."
Pearl was happy, flew up, and flew around Liu Wei's head.
The sound of one person and one bird may be a bit loud, and Gu Gu who was sleeping in the bed also woke up.
The young eagle crawled out of the bed with its huge body, poked its head out and took a look outside, saw Liu Wei and Pearl, and flew over happily, wanting to play together.
Liu Wei was caught off guard, and was bumped into his arms by this reckless bird that had just woken up, but Gu Gu didn't feel anything at all, and leaned softly on the new owner, raised his head, and yelled Write: "咕咕咕咕"
Liu Wei couldn't understand what it was saying, so she patted its head and smoothed its fur.
Cuckoo was happy, and he couldn't get up from Liu Wei's body more and more. Although Liu Wei could bear the weight of his huge body, it was not easy.
When Pearl saw this, she was not happy, she squeezed sticky between Liu Wei and Gu Gu, pushed Gu Gu out with her fragile little paws, and shouted as she pushed, "Jie Jie Jie Jie"
Cuckoo listened heartlessly, but didn't move. Anyway, the pearl was so small that it couldn't be pushed.
The room was filled with birdsong, but even so, Xiao Li, who was sleeping soundly under the quilt, showed no sign of waking up.
In the end, it was Liu Wei who opened the window and let the two birds go out to look for food by themselves, so they were free, washed up, and went downstairs.
Liu Wei got up earlier, the inn had just opened, the waiter saw Liu Wei coming down, and was about to ask Liu Wei what breakfast he wanted this morning, when he saw outside, two yamen servants rushed over.
Liu Wei also saw it, and looked at the two people puzzled.
Old Ketou entered the inn panting with a young servant, and when he saw Liu Wei, the servant said, "Zhou Yuer, Zhou Yuer, my lord, that person is Zhou Yuer."
Liu Wei froze for a moment, but didn't understand.
The old shell head pushed away the small yamen servant, and said, "Didn't you write a notice a few days ago, let us post it? The notice stated three people, saying that one had a purple crescent birthmark on the back waist, and the other had a white crescent on the wrist. Scars, wounds of three inches, and a red plum blossom mark on one thigh. Anyone who knows these three people, or has impressions, can report to the Yamen. Early this morning, the family member of the plum blossom mark came to the Yamen. Right now He is being kept by Commander Hu for questioning in the inner hall."
The crescent birthmark, the white scar, and the plum blossom imprint, these three characteristics are the three lanterns with signs that Liu Wei found among the many lanterns.
Using the potion and steam method to determine the exact part of the skin and make a guess, then he wrote a notice and announced it to the world in order to find out the identity of the victim.
This notice has been posted for several days. I thought there was no hope. After all, judging from the marks on the skin, the three people died for one to three years respectively.
It has been such a long time, and it is unknown whether the three people were killed in Guyong Mansion, or whether they are from Guyong Mansion. In this way, to find the family members of the three people is undoubtedly looking for a needle in a haystack.
Unexpectedly, I could actually find it.
Liu Wei was pleasantly surprised, and with a flash of her body, she lifted her foot and walked directly towards the Yamen.
The old shell head and the little yamen servant hurriedly followed, regardless of whether they were tired from running or not.
Arriving at the yamen, as soon as Liu Wei entered the inner hall, he saw a woman and two men.
The three of them sat on the front chairs cautiously. Among them, a middle-aged man and woman should be a couple.
Seeing Liu Wei coming in, Brother Hu, who was talking to the three of them, stood up and saluted. Knowing that this was an adult, the three of them hurriedly got up too, and saluted anxiously.
Liu Wei supported them and asked them to sit down without saluting.
The three of them sat down cautiously again, hesitated for a while, and the middle-aged woman was the first to speak: "My lord, my lord, Cao Min just wanted to ask our Yu'er, where is she?"
Liu Wei froze for a moment, then looked at Brother Hu.
Brother Hu looked embarrassed, got up and walked to Liu Wei, lowered his voice and said: "These three thought that our yamen found Zhou Yu'er, so they informed them to pick him up."
In other words, they did not know that Zhou Yu'er had been killed.
Liu Wei pondered for a while, looked at the old Ketou and the little yamen servant who were standing at the door and refused to come in, and then at Brother Hu who was full of unbearable expression, and thought, it seems that she is the only one to do this bad guy.
