Chapter Ninety-Three: The Vime Fatale

After listening to Ah Mo's report, Zheng Heng's eyes appeared with a sharp light like ice, like a snow-bright cold blade, although Ah Mo's words could not be trusted, but he believed that the development of things was not accidental, and the truth of everything was inevitable.

Tuberculosis is a chronic infectious disease transmitted through the respiratory tract, and it is impossible to contract such a malignant disease without a source of infection. Tsurushou Castle is the main castle of the Date family, and it has always been protected in various ways, and Mrs. Uyama has never been favored by Masahiro, so there have always been few people who go to Uyama-in, so it is even more difficult to be infected by outsiders. Now Mrs. Uyama, who is the most difficult to be infected, has tuberculosis, and after Zhengheng learned about it, he immediately felt that something was wrong, so he sent Amo to investigate secretly, and sure enough, he found out that something that shouldn't have happened happened.

Zhengheng couldn't help but be surprised by what Ah Mo said, could it be that Mrs. Yushan suddenly became ill, and Mrs. Xiao Sanhao was really related? Ah Mo will not say this for no reason, Ah Mo is directly subordinate to his personal guard, and has always been favored by him.

Listening to Ah Mo's report, Zheng Heng's face obviously would not look good, but the chill that came soon came quickly, and it didn't go slowly, the expression on his face was more probing, he squinted his eyes and said: "This matter, I'll leave it to you, check it well, but remember, don't leak the news." ”

Ah Mo didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "Yes, Your Highness!" ”

Zheng Heng slowly walked to Ah Mo's side, pulled her up from the ground, patted her on the shoulder, and said slowly, "Don't let me down." When this matter is over, I will fulfill my promise to your father, and you will give birth. ”

Amo's face turned crimson. Don't dare to look up. She was aware of the promise between her father, Tozawa Hakusai. Accepting her as a concubine is also an important step for the Tozawa clan to move from darkness to the sun, which is why she was sent to serve as the guard of Zhengheng.

In autumn, the weather is getting colder, and the maids know that Mrs. Miyoshi is from Kyoto and is afraid of cold, so they hurriedly beckon someone to raise a charcoal fire in the house. At night, the light shines through the thin window paper, adding a pleasant warmth and tranquility to the whole room.

Mrs. Miyoshi has a soft pillow from Kyoto. Squinting at the skylight outside the window, he said slowly: "I heard that Mrs. Yushan has been sent out of the city, she is really a selfish person, I don't know who will be next?" ”

Her current mood is both bumpy and a little excited, and she is one step closer to her purpose, as long as Mrs. Uyama is removed, the Date family will have one less housemother, and for the sake of long-term peace and stability, Date Masahiro, the master of the Date family, will inevitably marry another daughter and become a stepfamily.

In recent times, her sister Mrs. Miyoshi has become more and more prominent next to Zhengheng. Especially after Mrs. Uyama fell out of favor, but Mrs. Uyama has always occupied this position. Who knows when something will happen, after all, Zhengheng is only twenty years old now.

Mrs. Miyoshi has pros and cons to becoming a stepfamily, the advantage is that she was born in the Miyoshi family, she is considered a famous family in Beizhong, and she has a son, and the disadvantage is that she was originally the surviving member of the Mimura family, which will inevitably attract criticism from everyone.

The matter of making Mrs. Miyoshi a stepfamily will inevitably attract opposition from all the retainers, but if you let Mrs. Miyoshi, that is, her, become a stepmother, and then let her sister's son pass on to her as an adopted son, it will be logical. As for the other two women who have already given birth to sons, Ise Sakura is just a country girl, and Saki is even more impossible, and it is rumored that Masahiro intends to let his heir go to inherit the Ueki clan of Saiida Castle recently, and it will be a big deal to pass them all out when the time comes.

A maid who had come with her from Kyoto saw that Mrs. Miyoshi didn't seem to be able to sleep, so she whispered, "Miss, are you still worried?" The beads brought from the epidemic area have been completely destroyed, so there is no need to worry about anyone suspecting your head again. ”

This maid came from Kyoto with Mrs. Miyoshi, and she is Mrs. Miyoshi's intimate person, and she has always called the name of the family. Mrs. Xiao Sanhao glanced back at the old lady, and saw that the maid did not dare to raise her head, and said, "Iori, the matter has passed, and Hugh will mention it again." ”

Iori's heart jumped, she didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, she knew the temperament of Mrs. Xiaosanhao, she seemed to be gentle and dignified, but in fact she was ruthless, Nuo Nuo said: "Yes, Miss!" It's just that in her heart, an ominous premonition swelled up inexplicably.

Mrs. Miyoshi looked at Iori's departing figure, a chill flashed in her eyes, and it disappeared quickly, it was an eventful time now, and the city was tense because of Mrs. Uyama's affairs, if something happened at this time, I was afraid that it would arouse the suspicion of others, and it would be detrimental to her plans.

Mrs. Xiao Sanhao is patient here for the time being, but Iori does not dare to slack off, she has already seen the chill of killing people in Mrs. Xiaosanhao's eyes when she left, and there is only one way to die if she stays any longer, but it is the same as the reason for Mrs. Xiao Sanhao, now it is not a good time to leave outside the city of Heshou Loose and tight, once she detects the escape, she will decide that she is afraid of crime and abscond, and she will soon be pursued back, so she has to continue to endure and wait for the opportunity to quietly go to the port to leave.

Mrs. Miyoshi slept well, but Iori couldn't fall asleep, and only fell asleep in the early hours of the morning, but what I didn't expect was that Amo quietly came to Iori's room with two sisters, and a bamboo pipe pierced the window paper.

Iori hadn't fallen asleep, but now she had to fall asleep.

When Iori woke up again, she was awakened under the baptism of cold water, obviously there would be no good treatment, she didn't want to cry, but she was frightened, she opened her mouth to scream, a woman in a brown leotard had already walked in front of her, saying that it was a woman, but the other party's behavior was exactly the behavior of a man, he pulled out a short knife and pointed it at her cheek and said, "Scream, just cut a knife in the face." ”

Iori saw clearly who the person in front of her was, she followed the side of Mrs. Xiao Miyoshi and vaguely saw this woman, she was by the side of the lord of the country, it seemed that she was called Amo, obviously sent by the lord of the country, and then thought of what happened in the city just now, and was suddenly startled.

Amo looked at Iori, shook his head, and said, "I brought you today, I think you already know a qiē, and the lord of the country also knows a qiē, I really didn't expect that you would be so bold and dare to bring such a vicious thing into the city." ”

Iori was about to quibble, but he heard Ah Mo continue: "It's almost dawn, I'm afraid that Mrs. Xiao Sanhao is going to be anxious, if she doesn't see you, I'm afraid she must be as panicked as you, when the time comes, how will she respond?" ”

Amo paused for a moment and continued, "I wonder what she would do? Well, I will definitely go to the main city to inquire about your highness and see your movements, but unfortunately, you are here, but not with the lord. What will she do then, well, I think about it, you should also have a mother and little brother at home, as long as Mrs. Xiao Sanhao goes to a letter, even if you come out to sue again, won't she say that you have a personal vendetta? Then your mother and brother will die in vain. ”

Iori was swept away by Amena's eyes, and his whole body suddenly broke out with white sweat, and his face suddenly changed, and he couldn't help it, and the spirit spirit shivered, as if his head had been opened and poured down a scoop of cold and biting snow water from beginning to end.

Listening to Amo's narration, Iori understood that Yiqiē would develop according to the other party's description, thinking of this, she couldn't help but shudder, she fell to her knees, kowtowed violently, and begged: "Please also ask my sister to save the lives of my mother and little brother!" ”

She already knew that she was not immune, and now her only thought was that her mother and brother would not be implicated by her.

Ah Mo immediately laughed when she heard this, she looked at Iori and said: "You are really a little stupid, how can I save the lives of your mother and brother, you are the only one who can save them, I want to ask you some questions, ask well, maybe I can save your life." ”

Iori knew that the other party had eaten her to death, she had jumped into the other party's trap, and she couldn't extricate herself, so she had to accept her fate, hoping only to save the lives of her mother and brother, and responded: "What do you want to know about the source of the evil disease, it is buried under the cherry blossom tree in the yard." ”

Ah Mo frowned slightly.

Iori's face was pale, knowing that there was no way out, so she said: "The slave maid has been following the young lady for four or five years, knowing the temperament of the young lady, if she doesn't have the slightest handle in her hand, even if the slave and maid die is not a pity, she will kill them all." ”

As he spoke, Iori told everything about the matter.

Ah Mo put a document full of testimony in front of her, asked her to press her fingerprints, and then went out, and before going out, she suddenly turned around and asked, "Does Mrs. Xiaosanhao's sister know about this?" Iori, who was secretly sad, looked up in amazement.

Mo smiled and walked out.

Ah Mo's testimony deceived Zhengheng, he didn't expect that there would be such a vicious woman with a femme fatale lying next to his pillow, if it wasn't for the assassination of Mrs. Yushan, I am afraid that one day he would be stabbed in his sleep.

I can't imagine it.

Zheng Heng took a deep breath, he has always been generous to the outside world, but when he touches the bottom line, he will become ruthless, as if he has made up his mind, and said coldly: "Order all the ladies to come to the main city, I have something to announce." ”

Zhengheng made up her mind to deal with the inner courtyard well, but Mrs. Miyoshi was looking for the maid Iori who disappeared for no reason like crazy, and she hadn't seen Iori since last night, where she went, whether she ran away or was arrested.

Zhengheng's order, the little Miyoshi lady who had a ghost in her heart stood in place like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, but under the six gods without a master, she did not go to the main city, but ran to the place where her sister lived, the two places were not far apart, and soon came to the Miyoshi Pavilion.
