Chapter 1011: Someone Jumped into a Well
Jian Qi rarely saw Bai Ruozhu make such a big fire, and immediately ordered the secret guards below to investigate. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Bai Ruozhu also thought about it himself, there are many maids and guards in the family who were brought by Beiyu City, and when they arrived in Beijing, they didn't bother to buy a new subordinate, if there was a traitor, it would be the old man before.
Is it tempted by profit?
Although she arranged a secret guard at home to protect her family, the duty of the secret guard is to protect, she is not at home, and most of the secret guards will hide in the main courtyard to protect her father and mother, so they will not keep an eye on her yard at all, and only the guards everywhere will guard the yard.
Investigating the traitors is one thing, and solving the current crisis is even more important.
lost the reward at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, even if the Queen Mother is a kind person, but it can't stop people with intentions from making a fuss and picking fault with the rules.
Gui Zhi asked with a worried face in the back, "Ruozhu, will there be trouble?"
"It's okay, you go and tell my parents, I may have to come back later, tell them not to worry, I have a way to deal with it." Bai Ruozhu said that he was about to go out.
At this time, a secret guard hurriedly came, saluted her, and said, "Master, someone in the old lady's yard committed suicide by jumping into the well, but fortunately, we searched the yard just now and rescued him in time." ”
Bai Ruozhu was taken aback, the yard arranged for the Liu family was for the Liu family to live with the Liu family and Taoren, a few days ago, the Liu family went to the Bo family to stay, Bai Ruozhu also asked Taoren to stay and take care of her, so the courtyard is now empty, how could anyone go there and jump into the well?
"Who is it?" she asked hurriedly.
"It seems to be a maid named Momoren. The Dark Guard replied.
Bai Ruozhu raised his eyebrows, "Nonsense, Taoren is still in Bofu, I'll go take a look." ”
She walked briskly towards the old lady's courtyard, and Guizhi hurriedly followed.
As soon as I entered the backyard, I heard the woman's sobbing cry, the well was behind the yard, the person was rescued, and the guards did not dare to take it into the house casually.
The ancients thought that it was bad luck for someone in the family to commit suicide, and it would be okay to die in the back room of someone's house, but if they died in someone's house, I was afraid that no one would live in this courtyard.
Bai Ruozhu walked quickly towards the back of the courtyard, the old lady's yard was not big, just a main house and two small ear rooms, and it didn't take much effort to walk to the backyard.
A girl dressed as a maid was sobbing, her body could not move at all, apparently by the guards on acupuncture points.
"Miss, we were afraid that she would find a short-sightedness, so we ordered her acupoint. Cui Fan had already arrived and hurriedly explained to Bai Ruozhu.
Bai Ruozhu looked at the maid, her eyes flashed fiercely, and asked, "Why do you say that you are a peach kernel? Do you think that by saying this, others will not suspect that you are here?"
The maid cried even harder, her body could not move, but her lips were trembling, obviously extremely frightened.
"Isn't it, Holly?" Bai Ruozhu's voice suddenly raised.
This maid is the second batch of maids she bought, and she has a clean background, and there are no relatives who are holding her back, but she doesn't want to be a mole in the family.
"You honestly say, why did you betray me and steal my things and give them to others?" because she didn't care too much about the maids in the house, and gave them a chance to go out once a week and rest for half a day, she remembered that the afternoon before yesterday was the day when Holly rested for half a day.
I think it was the day before yesterday that she stole the bracelet, and then took the opportunity to go out to play and handed it over to the Yang family.
Holly cried even more fiercely, but refused to speak, looking at Bai Ruozhu with a look of guilt in her eyes.
"Do you think I can't do anything if I don't open my mouth? My uncle used to be the secretary of the government, but he gave me medicine to make the prisoner tell the truth, and you said it yourself, so as not to suffer. Bai Ruozhu said coldly, but in fact, she didn't plan to torture in her heart.
Although she hated the maid for betraying her, she still remembered her efforts to serve the family and didn't want to be too embarrassed for her.
And her intuition told her that Holly was not a person who coveted wealth and nobility, and she had something to worry about.
Bai Ruozhu waited for a long time, and just when she felt that she had to use drugs to extract a confession, Holly finally spoke.
"Miss, I'm sorry for you, I failed you for your cultivation, I don't ask you to forgive me, I know that my sin is unforgivable, I just ask you to save my brother, he is just a ten-year-old child who doesn't understand anything. Holly cried.
"Brother?" Bai Ruozhu was a little surprised, when she bought someone from Ge Yapo's side, she found it clearly, Holly was a refugee, and her family wanted to die of illness one after another, so she sold herself to bury her mother.
Could it be that Ge Yapo lied? But Bai Ruozhu felt that although Ge Yapo was not a good person, she was an honest businessman.
"I always thought my brother was dead, but when we fled, he turned blue and couldn't breathe, and was buried by my father on the side of the road, and then my father and mother also fell ill and died. But someone brought my brother to see me the other day, and although he was taller and fatter, I recognized him at a glance, and the birthmark on his body was correct. ”
"I couldn't believe at the time, how can a dead person come back to life? He said that it was his master who came by and found that he had no real breath, so he revived him and taught him some medical skills. He always wanted to find me, and then followed his master to the capital. ”
"Who is your brother's master?" Bai Ruozhu felt strange, could it be that he was also a miracle doctor?
"I don't know, he didn't say his name, and then he came to me again and told me to steal the eldest lady's bracelet or kill my brother. "Holly sobbed and sobbed," he showed me half of his bloody little finger, saying that if he didn't do what he said, next time I would see not half a finger, but his brother's head. ”
"Miss, I know I'm sorry for you, you have always treated me well, but I can't bear to see my brother killed, he is the last bloodline in my family, if I can exchange my life for his life, I will admit it. I really don't have the face to stay in the Bai family anymore, and I'm afraid of being discovered, so I sneaked to this courtyard today, planning to die. ”
Holly said that in the end, his eyes were dead gray, and it could be seen that he really repaid his desire for death, and he had no hope of survival.
Bai Ruozhu took a deep breath, she didn't know whether to sympathize with Holly or hate her. She also has a younger brother, and if Xiao Si is caught and threatens her, she may also be obedient, so she can understand Holly's behavior. But she can't forgive Holly for betraying her, is she, the master, so untrustworthy to the people below?Don't believe that she can help save her brother?
"You should have told me from the beginning, I would find a way to rescue your brother, but you actually believed others and didn't believe me, and now do you really think that if you do this, your brother will really be safe?
