Chapter 181 Nine ileum 13
There is only one Bo family with three ministers.
The Bo family has only one brother and one brother, and there is only one dead young master.
When Bo Ruoyou left Zhao He's family, his steps were in a hurry. Hu Changqing saw that it was inappropriate and knew that Bo Ruoyou was the daughter of Bo, and followed her with a look of wanting to speak but stopping, "Miss Bo, this matter..."
Bo Ruoyou stood in front of the carriage, "You go back to the yamen first. If Captain Wu comes back, tell him about this and I will go home."
Bo Ruoyou's face was white, his pupils were dull and dull. He spoke quickly but neatly, and he felt particularly arrogant. Hu Changqing nodded nervously, but before he could respond, Bo Ruoyou suddenly turned around and the carriage.
Uncle Liang drove very fast, and the carriage was a little bumpy in the speeding. Bo Ruoyou leaned against the cold carpier, and his heart was about to jump out of his heart.
The child heard that he was only four years old and was still a young master from the high-ranking official family.
They were lost at first by a sibling.
The next day, my sister appeared by herself, but my younger brother did not come back.
Bo Ruoyou took a deep breath and wanted to suppress her panic-hearted beating, but the cold air poured in, which only brought a dense tingling pain. Her body tensed up, her hands were taken away, and she pinched red marks on her fingertips without any sense.
Zhao He is not talking about others, it is her and her younger brother Bo Lanzhou.
The accidental birth of my younger brother was in Jian and the 18th year of the Lantern Festival. This is the only image in her mind. She has not returned to the capital for many years. Her deceased parents and her younger brother gradually blurred their faces. Her half-brother made up for her lack of family affection, but she occasionally wondered what accident happened to her closest brother.
She suddenly understood why Cheng Yunzhi did not allow her to investigate the case.
The carriage stopped at the door of Cheng's house. Bo Ruoyou walked off the carriage and his hands were weak. When he entered the mansion, he went straight to the study to find Cheng Yunzhi. Cheng Yunzhi was drawing a new prescription for the eldest princess. His face was warm when he raised his eyes, but when he saw Bo Ruoyou's expression, he knew something was wrong, "What's wrong?"
Bo Ruoyou stepped forward and stood up before the book case, "The adoptive father did not allow me to investigate this case at first, but because this case is very similar to the death of my younger brother many years ago?"
Cheng Yunyi sat up straight, hesitated for a moment before saying, "Why do you ask like this?"
When Cheng Yunzhi answered, Bo Ruoyou was very sure that she had expected it was right. She frowned her eyebrows tightly and thought carefully in her mind, "So when my brother had an accident, my brother and I disappeared. Later, I came back by myself, but my brother never came back. Seven or eight days later, I only found my brother's body?"
Bo Ruoyou's heart thrust and asked like this. However, he couldn't search any scene in his mind. Instead, the more he thought about it, the more he felt the pain in his heart, and his temples were also painful. Seeing that her expression was wrong, Cheng Yunzhi stood up and walked over and grabbed her wrist, "Don't be anxious. Although this case reminded me of something happened to Lan Zhou back then, the incident that happened was long gone..."
Cheng Yunzhi asked her to sit down, and Bo Ruoyou looked at him and said, "No, adoptive father, the death of his younger brother back then is very likely not an accident."
Cheng Yunzhi was about to pour her a cup of warm tea. When he heard this, he looked at Bo Ruoyou. Bo Ruoyou tightly said, "The yamen has been checking past files these days, trying to find out if there are similar cases in the past few years. Although he has not found the file of his brother's case, he found another case. We went to ask an old yamen who was back then. He remembered his brother's case."
Cheng Yunzhi understood, "He said that Lan Zhou was harmed by others?"
Bo Ruoyou shook his head, "He mentioned the suspicious points of this case back then. The river beach where my brother was discovered was two miles away from the missing place. There were many dark stones on that section of the riverbed. My adoptive father was also a coroner. When he knew that the corpse was flowing down the river, it was impossible for him to leave traces on his body, but there were only small wounds on his body, and there were no bloodstains in his body. This was wrong."
Cheng Yunzhi put down the teacup heavily. When he sat opposite Bo Ruoyou, his body was hunched a little. His eyes were bright and he looked at Bo Ruoyou with great care, as if he was hesitating.
But Bo Ruoyou asked decisively: "I was young and had a sick life, so I can't remember many things before I was five years old. When my younger brother got into trouble, I only have a vague memory. Over the years, my adoptive father has been avoiding the death of his younger brother and his father and mother. I always thought it was my adoptive father who was afraid that I would be unable to take it. But in fact, the things back then were not just that simple, right?"
There was a fog floating in Bo Ruoyou's eyes, and his voice was trembling slightly. Cheng Yunzhi couldn't bear it anymore and knew that he could not hide it anymore. He sighed deeply, "Don't worry, listen to your adoptive father telling you."
Bo Ruoyou still looked at Cheng Yunzhi without turning his eyes. Cheng Yunzhi talked about the past in a deep voice, "That year, on the Lantern Festival, your father and mother took you siblings to the Luohe River to see the Lantern Market. You and your brother were lost at that time. There were many people at that time. After you siblings and brothers were lost, your father and mother immediately called many people to look for it. As long as you don't leave the market, you will definitely be found, but you eventually disappeared-"
"I only learned about this news on the second day. On the second day, your father and mother reported to the official. Because something happened to the young master of the Bo family, the government was quite neat and sent many yamen staff to investigate. That afternoon, you fell on the side of the road alone and were discovered by the servants on the nearby village. Soon the yamen staff found you."
"There was a thunderstorm that night. You were so ill that you were all over. When you came back, you fell ill. The fever did not go away for five days. During this period, you just woke up and said nonsense, like you were sick, or like you were scared. Your mother stayed in the mansion to take care of you. Your father was running outside the city. After seven days, Lan Zhou's body was found."
"At that time, there was a coroner's autopsy, and the result was that he fell into the river accidentally. The body was in the water for too long, and many traces left by the murderer were covered. Even if your father and mother didn't want to believe it, they could not find the fatal trauma and did not find any clues along the Luo River. The case could only be left unresolved."
"Because it was determined that the case was not recorded in the government. Your father and mother were heartbroken and you were seriously ill. In the next six months, they held a funeral for Lanzhou and then focused on treating you."
Bo Ruoyou recalled the situation back then hard, but only a few vague clips flashed by, "How could I be sick for so long?"
Cheng Yunzhi recalled that year, and his eyes were even more unbearable, "You are just a five-year-old child. You will usually be afraid of leaving your family, let alone being lost for a day and a night, being overly frightened, and being infected with typhoid fever for several days that night, any situation may happen."
Bo Ruoyou's fingertips were trembling, "I can't remember what happened that night, nor why my father and mother had an accident."
Cheng Yunzhi said: "Your father and mother are indeed unexpected. You were sick for half a year. When your father and mother were desperate, they began to search for famous doctors and folk remedies in the folk. That winter, they went to Luozhou to find doctors. When they returned to Beijing, there was heavy snow on the Luochuan Mountain north of Luozhou. Their carriages and horses fell down the mountain stream in danger, so they died."
Bo Ruoyou's eyes shrank violently, "I'm going to find a doctor for me..."
"They are your biological parents, so it is best to seek medical treatment for you. Later, no one could have thought of it. It had nothing to do with you." Cheng Yunzhi seemed to know what she would do, and quickly stopped her. "You were extremely ill at that time. Your father and mother lost your brother, so it was absolutely impossible to watch you continue to be sick."
Bo Ruoyou looked at Cheng Yunzhi, "Did I hurt my head after a serious illness and high fever? Why can't I remember all that day and night? Is it only I know what happened that day and night?"
Cheng Yunzhi wanted to say something but stopped, "It is possible that he has a bad memory after he is seriously ill. No one knows what happened that night, but you were only five years old at that time. Even if you were kidnapped by evil people together, you can't do anything. For your father and mother, it's a blessing for you to come back, or you're also separated, and you don't know how Lan Zhou was in danger."
Bo Ruoyou's heartbeat hit her eardrum again and again, "Have you seen your brother's body?"
Cheng Yunzhi nodded, "I have seen it. When I saw it, the government had already decided. Lan Zhou was taken back to the mansion and had already put a coffin. At that time, I was an imperial doctor and did not have the intention of autopsy. I only made your father and mother's day mourn and follow the changes."
"Didn't the adoptive father cure my illness at that time?"
Cheng Yunzhi shook his head, "At that time, almost all the imperial doctors had treated you, including my father."
A tragedy suddenly surged from the depths of Bo Ruoyou's heart. Her nose felt sour and the old feeling spread in her chest. I couldn't tell whether it was a shame or a powerless self-loathing. It's been a long time since the incident. At the age of five, she missed the opportunity to find out the truth because of illness. Will she still have a chance in thirteen years?
Her thoughts were mixed, and a thread in her mind was tense. Just when it was about to break, she raised her eyes and looked at Cheng Yunzhi, "Entertainment Father, I want to re-examine my brother's case."
Cheng Yunzhi hesitated for a moment, "It's been thirteen years, and the case has not been decided back then. How can we be sure that Lan Zhou is harmed by others now?"
Bo Ruoyou said confidently: "Because the old yamen said, my brother's death was wrong."
In fact, she still had a little uneasy intuition in her heart. She felt that something must have happened that night, but she was a coroner, and all she could believe was clues and evidence. She stood up, and the panic in her eyes was suppressed, as if she had returned to her earlier calmness and determination. "I want to go to the river beach where I discovered my younger brother back then to take a look."
The river beach was outside the city. Cheng Yunzhi looked at the sky and persuaded him, "Even if you go and see it, don't worry, don't worry."
Bo Ruoyou's fist was clenched in his sleeves, and he felt that he couldn't wait at this moment. Just as she was hesitating, the door of Cheng's house was suddenly knocked, and soon Zhou Liang took Hou Yang in.
The two of them walked out the door, "Master, Miss, Captain Wu has sent someone."
Bo Ruoyou and Cheng Yunzhi walked out together, and then saw Hou Yang with bright eyes. When Hou Yang saw Bo Ruoyou, he said happily: "My county lord, I found Li Shen's home. He was the murderer who killed Wen Jin!"
Bo Ruoyou's heart was thrilled, and Hou Yang continued: "The person ran away, the captain sent someone to arrest him. His family seemed to be the place where the crime occurred. The captain wanted to ask you to take a look."
