Chapter 183 Nine Ileum 15

It was late at night when Bao Ruoyou returned to Beijing. When he returned home, the Cheng residence was brightly lit. Bao Ruoyou was a little suspicious. When he walked to the door, he saw the carriages and horses of the Marquis of Wuzhao Mansion parked under the wall. .

Her beautiful eyes lit up and she quickly entered the door. As soon as she reached the atrium, the hidden door of the main hall was pushed open.

Huo Weilou walked out, and she couldn't help but smile unexpectedly, "Why is Mr. Hou here?"

The cold wind outside was biting, her hands were cold, and her cheeks were so cold that they turned bloodless. Huo Weilou welcomed her into the house first. It was extremely hot inside, but he was the only one left.

"How come the Marquis is alone and his adoptive father is here?"

The hot tea on the table had already cooled down, and one could tell that Huo Weilou had been waiting for a long time. He took off the cloak from her shoulders and said, "I knew you were out of town and came over to take a look. It's too late. I'll let Mr. Cheng rest first."

Bao Ruoyou was wrapped in the warmth in the room, and his limbs finally regained some consciousness. Aunt Liang got up when she heard the noise and brought some refreshments. When Aunt Liang stepped back, Huo Weilou asked: " How about outside the city?"

Bao Ruoyou was about to tell him about this, and said with bright eyes: "The murderer of the child has been found. I have visited that person's house. There is a dark room in the house and a dojo has been set up. It should be There is no doubt that the murderer is the murderer, but he has escaped. Captain Wu has sent people to hunt him down. The man is sick and cannot bear the long-distance fatigue. His appearance is also eye-catching, so it should not be difficult."

Huo Weilou did not expect that this matter would go smoothly. His face relaxed a little, and he held her hand in his palm to warm it. Bo Ruoyou blinked and said, "What have you been doing these past two days, Lord Marquis?"

Huo Weilou's eyes darkened when he heard this question, "Do you remember the Famen Temple case in Luozhou?"

Bo Ruoyou naturally remembered that Huo Weilou continued: "Although the murder case in Famen Temple has been solved, the whereabouts of the relic are still unknown. This relic is the most precious treasure of Buddhism in the Great Zhou Dynasty and has been lost for ten years, but we all I don’t know, in addition to the relics, there is also something wrong with the Buddhist treasures stored in the Treasures Department of the Imperial Palace Treasury.”

When Huo Weilou told the story about the Seven Treasures Relic Pagoda being exchanged, Bo Ruoyou took a breath away. She had entered the palace and knew that it was a place of extremely high security. "We have already entered the palace, how could we be exchanged?" ?"

"Under normal circumstances, it is indeed extremely difficult, but if you are from the Zhenbao Department and Taichang Temple, it is possible." Huo Weilou explained the palace structure, and then said: "The Zhenbao Department controls all aspects of the Zhenbao Pavilion. The key to the warehouse, and this object has been stored in it for several years. If ordinary sacrifices do not need this object, almost no one will remember it. And in the past few years, if someone in the Treasure Department wants to deceive the superiors and subordinates to exchange this object, There are many opportunities, plus people from the Treasure Department and the Inner Palace often come in and out of the Inner Palace to buy it, so it is not difficult to transport this item out."

"Next is Taichang Temple. Taichang Temple is responsible for the ancestral temple sacrifices. How to arrange the dojo for the ceremony, what treasures should be used, and what eminent monks and masters should be invited are all carefully planned by them. If the people in Taichang Temple are willing to change Planning for the Buddha treasures can begin months before the ceremony, and if people from Taichang Temple collude with the treasure department, it will be easier to swap the Buddha treasures out of the palace."

The palace is heavily guarded and protected by the manpower below, but if someone in one of the circles goes awry, there is a possibility of being exploited.

The Buddha was a gift from Daqi a few years ago. Because it was a gift from a neighboring country, it was not sent to Xiangguo Temple. If Emperor Jianhe had not suddenly decided to give the Buddha this time, it would have taken many years. was discovered, and the murderer also used a cover-up method to hide the relics of Famen Temple. If the host at the time had not been astute, he would have been fooled by the murderer.

And this time the Treasure Department and Taichang Temple...

Bo Ruoyou's eyes darkened, "Taichang Temple... Wang Qingfu of Taichang Temple was one of the murderers of Famen Temple, and he was the only one who knew the whereabouts of the relic. In order not to be exposed, he chose to commit suicide. According to the Buddhist It can be inferred that the time when Bao entered the palace happened to be during Wang Qingfu's term. Could the loss of the stupa be related to Wang Qingfu?"

Huo Weilou's look confirmed her inference, "We are investigating. After this matter came out, both the Treasure Department and Taichang Temple were top priorities. However, the Buddha treasures were not exchanged in the past two years. Today, The envoy has not yet found any suspicious persons."

The seventeenth day of the winter lunar month is the birthday of Amitabha Buddha, which is the most important event in the Buddhist birthday every year. Not only Emperor Jianhe presented the Buddha treasure, but also Wenjin’s family also participated in this event. Later, the clinker Wen Jin was killed, and the Buddha treasure presented by the royal family was also fake.

Bo Ruoyou felt a little sad in his heart, "As long as something has happened, it will definitely leave traces. If the Buddha treasure is exchanged, it must not be noticed by one or two people if it has to go through many levels of checkpoints."

Huo Weilou nodded and said, "In the past few days, the direct committee will focus on investigating this matter."

After he finished speaking, he looked at her deeply, as if he was exploring something. Bo Ruoyou was a little suspicious, "What's wrong, Lord Marquis?"

He clasped his knuckles together, "Is there anything else you haven't told me?"

Bao Ruoyou's back stiffened for a moment. His eyes were deep, as if he could see through her. Her heart skipped a beat, and the corners of her lips pursed tightly. Huo Weilou wrapped her hand in his palm without any urgency. She, Bo Ruoyou calmed down before speaking with difficulty, "Did the Marquis hear what his adoptive father said?"

He said warmly: "Yes——"

Bo Ruoyou's throat suddenly became clogged, and he couldn't help but lower his eyes, "I couldn't remember what happened back then, until I found the old Yamen Chai. That was the first year the Lao Yamen Chai entered the Yamen, so I remember it very clearly. , I disappeared with him that night, but I was the only one who was found the next day, but I can’t remember what happened that night, and no one knows what happened to my brother to this day.”

She paused, and her voice became hoarse, "Later, I was seriously ill for a long time. My father and mother went to Luozhou to seek medical treatment for me, and rushed back in a hurry. That's when an accident happened."

Her shoulders shrank, and her black-feathered eyelashes cast large shadows. She didn't want people to see the emotions in her eyes. Huo Weilou held her cheek with his hand, making her look up at him.

When she raised her eyes, there was a layer of wet mist in her eyes, the corners of her lips were pursed tightly, and her beautiful eyebrows were frowned together. Huo Weilou felt pity in his eyes, rubbed her cheek twice, and pulled her in. Come in your arms.

Through the robe, the warmth on his body was ironing and hot, and soon warmed the frost in her heart. She put her hands around his waist, and the pain in her heart became even worse, "If I remember , maybe I can find my brother back that day. If I remember, maybe the murderer will not be at large, and neither will my father and mother..."

She choked up and buried her head deeper in his arms. Huo Weilou tightened his arms and placed his big hand on the back of her neck to caress, "You were only five years old at that time, and you were still an ignorant child. You are also a victim, so you can’t blame yourself so harshly.”

Bao Ruoyou shook his head gently in his arms, and Huo Weilou couldn't help but hold her on his lap, "You pity the child who was murdered this time. When you were in Heishui Village, you were also very fond of the child of the suspect's family. Take good care of them. You know how innocent and weak children are. You were the same age as them back then. You were sick and frightened at the time. How could you ask yourself to do what adults should do without being frightened or afraid? ?"

Bao Ruoyou was still lying on his shoulder, her calmness temporarily fading from her body. At this moment, she seemed to have returned to that long night thirteen years ago, with self-blame and helplessness haunting her like ghosts in the dark night.

Huo Weilou held her hand tightly, "The murderer has been traced. We only need to capture him to get the truth. Your brother's death and all the subsequent incidents were all caused by the murderer's evil deeds, and you were also responsible for it. It was a blessing that you were found back then, but later you recovered from your illness and became a traitor by mistake. Perhaps God wanted you to find out the truth about that year. You can't suffer yourself because of it, okay?"

His gentle words gradually calmed down the pain in her heart. It was already very late at night, and there was rustling movement in the howling cold wind. Snow had fallen in the sky again. Bao Ruoyou rubbed her cheek against his shoulder. He said angrily: "Now I just speculate that my younger brother was also killed by the same murderer. But if the murderer doesn't admit it after he is brought to justice, my younger brother's case has been around for a long time. No files were left at that time. We only rely on the memory of the old Yamencha. After all, it will be difficult to find out." A clue."

"You just said that everything that happens will leave traces. If the murderer has nothing to do with the case that year, I will ask the Yamen to re-investigate the case. I am here, and you are the best person in the world. As long as you want to investigate, you can definitely find out."

His words calmed Bao Ruoyou's mind. She straightened up and looked at her. Under her wet eyelashes, her eyes were clear and trusting, "Can you really find out?"

Huo Weilou couldn't help but kiss her forehead, "Seriously."

Her mind was full of confusion and panic. Although these two words were light, they seemed to inject strength into her limbs and bones. There was a bit of brilliance in her eyes, "I also want to go to the place where my brother was found dead."

"Okay, I'll go with you."

"Has the Lantern Festival Lantern Market in Luohe changed places over the years? I want to go and have a look. Maybe I can think of something."

"No, it's close to Laba, and there is also excitement along the Luohe River. I'll take you there."

The last trace of panic in Bao Ruoyou's heart disappeared. She looked out the window anxiously, as if wondering when it would be dawn. Huo Weilou saw her thoughts and reluctantly held her waist, "Now you should think about resting." Only when you have enough energy can you be humble."

Bao Ruoyou realized that it was indeed too late, "When will the Marquis return to the mansion?"

Huo Weilou's eyes darkened slightly, meaning, "I'm not leaving."

Bo Ruoyou glared, "No... not leaving?"

She looked obviously nervous, which made Huo Weilou raise his lips, "I know best how many rooms there are in this mansion, why don't you even give me a guest room?"

Bao Ruoyou reacted belatedly. She jumped off Huo Weilou's lap under his teasing gaze and walked quickly to the door to call Auntie Liang.

Cheng Zhai's current mansion is spacious, and Liang Aunt quickly tidied up a guest room next to Bo Ruoyou's courtyard. Bo Ruoyou and Huo Weilou walked out of the main hall, and saw only a frosty white color outside, and the sky Heavy snow was falling one after another, and the weather became even colder.

Huo Weilou held an umbrella to protect Bo Ruoyou, and first sent her to be settled, and then went to the guest house. Bo Ruoyou stood at the door and saw him walking out of his yard. He felt extraordinarily calm in his heart, and the more he When she encounters a difficult situation, her will becomes stronger and stronger. Thinking that her brother's case may be very difficult to investigate, she must force herself to withdraw from the victim's many emotions.

He is right, she became a traitor by accident, maybe she really did it for some reason.

Bao Ruoyou took a shower and rested, and the sleepiness came over her body, causing her to fall asleep quickly. In her dream, she recalled the scene when she was seven or eight years old and wanted to learn the art of treason from her adoptive father. Although she could not remember the past at that time, when she saw her adoptive father's death, she subconsciously thought of the accidents of her brother and parents. She was ignorant and felt that this path must be the right one.

The dream all night long made her still sleepy even when she fell asleep. When she woke up in the morning, it was snowy outside the window. She quickly got up, and when she opened the window, she saw that there were layers of snow outside. She thought about leaving the city today, and thought While Huo Weilou was still in the mansion, he quickly came to the main hall. When he arrived at the main hall, Huo Weilou was indeed talking to Cheng Yunzhi.

The two of them didn't know what they were talking about, and their faces were a little solemn. When they saw her coming, they both smiled at the same time. Bo Ruoyou couldn't tell the difference, so he just wanted to go out of the city after breakfast.

Cheng Yunzhi told Huo Weilou about the past because he was worried about her. At this moment, he hesitated to speak. Instead, Huo Weilou said warmly: "It's okay to go and have a look. Mr. Cheng can rest assured that I will accompany you."

Cheng Yunzhi had no choice but to give up. After the three of them had breakfast, Huo Weilou ordered his attendants before leaving the city with her. Before leaving, Bo Ruoyou hesitated, "The Marquis wants to investigate the matter of the stupa. There may be some problems." Will you accompany me out of the city?"

"Ning Xiao has returned from the southwest, and now the company has enough manpower, so he can handle it naturally. I don't have to do all the complicated things, so you can rest assured."

With such words, Bo Ruoyou was completely relieved, and the two set off in the same car. On the way, Bo Ruoyou asked about the ban on gold paste in the southwest, and Huo Weilou bluntly said that it was difficult to prohibit it completely, but now the officialdom in the southwest is big Shuffling the cards, given time, can always make the gold paste disappear.

The road was slippery in the snow and the carriage was not going fast. When they reached the south of the city, the sun was already rising. But just as their carriage was about to leave the city, they suddenly saw a group of government officials speeding out of the city. As they entered, one of the government officials had someone tied to his horse, and the group of people passed by their carriages and headed towards the government office.

Bo Ruoyou's heart moved slightly, "Have we caught someone?"

Huo Weilou immediately sent someone to chase him for questioning. Within a moment, the attendant returned and said, "Master Marquis, the county lord, we have indeed caught the fugitive murderer."

Bao Ruoyou's mind perked up. She originally thought that it would take several days to hunt down the murderer, but she didn't expect that the yamen were so fast this time. She immediately changed her mind and ordered the carriage to go to the yamen first. go.

On the way to the Yamen, Bo Ruoyou was quite nervous. When she arrived at the door of the Yamen, she saw a chaos in the Yamen. When they entered the Yamen, they met Wu Xiang striding out from the direction of the cell. Xiang was also happy when he saw them. He stepped forward and saluted and said, "Li Shen caught him! As expected, this boy rode a carriage to the ferry, but we caught up with him halfway! The next step is to interrogate him properly - ”

Bo Ruoyou's heart started to beat quickly, and he said to Wu Xiang about this: "When the head is interrogating this person, he should ask about one more case."

Last night things were so urgent that Bo Ruoyou did not mention the old case of Bo Lanzhou to Wu Xiang. At this moment, Wu Xiang naturally looked suspicious. Bo Ruoyou took a deep breath and said: "My brother, maybe thirteen years ago, he suffered This person was murdered and died."
