Chapter 55(1/2)

Lu Qing came very quickly. After hearing Huo Weilou's question, he looked at Song Meiniang hesitantly. There were questions in his eyes and some caution, but Song Meiniang didn't even look at him.

Then he nodded confidently, "Yes, the villain can testify."

Huo Weilou raised his sword eyebrows slightly, and Lu Qing said, "Around that night, the villain had gone to Sister Song's room. It was the door opened by Yue Niang. She said that Sister Song had fallen asleep. The villain looked at the door, said a few words to Yue Niang and left."

Eunuch Fu couldn't help but say, "What are you going to do to them at midnight?"

So late, why did Lu Qingyi go to find Song Meiniang?

Lu Qing hesitated when asked, but he was not panicked, his eyes slightly turned, as if he was thinking about how to explain, "When the villain first entered the garden, Sister Song was also teaching the villain's hands, eyes and body skills. Therefore, Sister Song was half a master of the villain. She fell into the river that day and got sick. That night, the villain was worried, so she went to see her."

"Just half a master?" Huo Weilou suddenly spoke, his voice was slightly cool, and he asked casually, "On the night that we boarded the boat, around the hour of Hai, were you talking about the relationship between master and apprentice in Song Mei's room?"

As soon as these words were said, Lu Qing's expression changed slightly. Even Song Meiniang was also slightly surprised to look at Huo Weilou. Bo Ruoyou, who was beside him, frowned slightly. After thinking about it, he thought that she had caught water and hit Yueniang that night, and then went to find Yueniang with Huo Weilou, but she wasted a moment in front of Song Meiniang's door.

At that time, Huo Weilou clearly heard something, but he didn't say it thoroughly, and she was not allowed to listen to the sounds inside the house.

Could it be that Huo Weilou heard some close words from her and the other two say in the house?

Bo Ruoyou glanced at Huo Weilou with a somewhat suspicious expression.

Lu Qing looked at Song Meiniang with a red face. Seeing her lowered eyes, he gritted his teeth and thrust his back, "The villain admired Sister Song for a long time, and indeed loved her a lot, but... it was just that no one was allowed to have an affair in the opera troupe, so outsiders didn't know." As he said, Lu Qing even looked righteous, "The words have come to this point, and the villain dared not hide it. Sister Song was seriously ill and the villain was worried, so on the night when the master had an accident, the young student went to visit him around the middle of the hour."

The corners of his lips were slightly pursed, and Lu Qingyu lowered his voice, "But Yue Niang was guarding there, and the villain did not enter the door."

Yue Niang frowned slightly, and her face was filled with miserable gloom. She could not tell whether she was surprised or known about this.

Huo Weilou looked at the two of them. Although he had known that they had an affair, Song Meiniang pulled Lu Qing out to testify at this time, but she relieved her siege. Huo Weilou asked: "You went there at midnight, did you have an agreement?"

Lu Qing looked at Song Meiniang again, "It's... the villain and Sister Song agreed that if there is someone to accompany the master, the villain will look for her at the hour of the senile dynasty. If the master has no one to accompany him, he will have to wait until the night is quiet before leaving."

When Li Yuchang was still alive, this personal affair was a sin. Now that Li Yuchang is dead, Lu Qing has more confidence.

Huo Weilou glanced at him coldly, "You are Li Yuchang's servant, Song Meiniang is Li Yuchang's concubine. He praised you for the colorful house, but you have an affair with his concubine."

He mocked him, and Lu Qing immediately showed resentment, "The Marquis doesn't know anything. If he is a serious concubine, it's just that villain will not dare to do anything. But... But the young women in the entire opera troupe are occupied by the master. He does not give him a title, just to satisfy his own selfish desires. These women, including the villain, are just the master's money tree. We can sing and perform better. There are also many who have not been trained and sold to the brothel by him. There are also those who are dissatisfied with him. They are punished and beaten up at every turn. Even if there are more than one or two of them are beaten to death, how can they be an ordinary master and servant?"

Lu Qing had anger between his eyebrows and eyes, but he was tolerant and restrained. Seeing that Song Meiniang was silent, he generously admitted that he had admired Song Meiniang for a long time. In addition, his back was straight, and his eyebrows were fearless and his head was timid, which was a bit convincing.

Song Meiniang held a scarf and her lips in her hand and covered it with her lips. She coughed lightly from time to time. The pathological condition was particularly obvious. She didn't say a few words from beginning to end, and she was quite calm. Only Yueniang supported her, and seemed a little scared when she was next to her.

"You arrived in front of Song Meiniang's house at midnight. Have you ever heard Liu Huiniang sing on the way?"

Lu Qing hurriedly said, "I heard that Hui Niang's house is nearby. The villain naturally heard it. Because she had not yet stopped, the villain dared not stay for a long time. He told Yue Niang to take good care of Sister Song and left. After the villain returned to the room, he also heard a faint sound from the other side, and then the villain fell asleep."

Huo Weilou looked at these people and didn't know whether to sigh or be angry. After all, he was the best opera actor in Yuchun's class. Everyone was perfect with a clear conscience. If the chief official is someone else today, I'm afraid he would believe it.

Although Lu Qing had a cover, his expression was quite exposed. He often went to see Song Meiniang's expression, not like a backbone. However, Song Meiniang was neither humble nor arrogant, and she looked sick and pity for me...

Huo Weilou looked at the three of them for a moment, and suddenly his voice faded, "Li Yuchang's death was a mistake, but now, he has some doubts. He is your head, and I think you want to know if there is any inside story about his sudden death."

Lu Qing's expression changed slightly, "Has the master been killed?"

Huo Weilou looked relaxed and felt less oppressed. He seemed to be helpless about this change, but he said reluctantly: "Some strange things cannot be explained."

Lu Qing pursed the corners of his lips and looked at Song Meiniang again. He seemed to remember something, but immediately covered his expression and stopped asking more.

Bo Ruoyou was looking at Lu Qing and seeing this moment in her eyes. She couldn't help but say suspiciously: "Young Master Lu, you were only at the door when you saw Yue Niang in the night. Have you ever seen Song Meiniang with your own eyes?"

Lu Qing blinked his eyes quickly, "I saw it, the villain glanced at Mei Niang before leaving."

With Lu Qing testified, Song Meiniang and Yueniang got rid of the suspicion. Huo Weilou waved his hand, "This matter needs to be verified. You must not get off the boat tomorrow. It's late at night. You retreat. After you go back to your room, you must not walk around."

Lu Qing and the other two bowed and retreated. Huo Weilou ordered Lu Ke again, "Let Yue Niang live with Song Meiniang separate."

Lu Ke responded and came back soon and reported: "Marty, Lu Qing and Li Yuchang's passengers asked, but they only heard the sound of Liu Huiniang sending him back and leaving that night. No other noise was heard. When the night was windy, Liu Huiniang was singing on the boat, and no one cared about anything else. Later, they all went to bed late at night. Even the people next to Lu Qing were not even aware of his time going out."

Huo Weilou asked Bo Ruoyou, "Why did you ask him if he saw Song Meiniang? Do you doubt Song Meiniang?"

Bo Ruoyou felt a sense of indescribable sense of strangeness in his heart, "Song Meiniang is not visible, and Lu Qing said he is only standing at the door, but does the Marquis remember? When we met Yue Niang that night, we couldn't see the bed in the room. But he later said that we saw Song Meiniang and left..." At this point, she shook her head again, "But... the day when Li Yuchang had an accident, the girl had met Song Meiniang. When she went there, she felt hot, and she was about to faint, unlike she could get up."

Yue Niang came to find her. Later, she saw Song Meiniang and changed her recipe. That night, Yue Niang went on stage to sing the second scene. After singing, Li Yuchang drank wine at Liu Huiniang, and then fell into the river and died.

However, Li Yuchang has been dead for almost three days, and Song Meiniang's illness seems to have not improved at all.

Bo Ruoyou saw the storybook and it was already early. Later, there were some twists and turns. When it was asked to interrogate, it was already around the middle of the night. At this moment, Huo Weilou was not in a hurry to stop this night, so he asked everyone to take Liu Huiniang alone to take care of her cabin. After the order was finished, he took Bo Ruoyou to the third floor.

Walking on the road, Bo Ruoyou suddenly remembered that night and asked Huo Weilou, "What did the marquis hear that night? So did the marquis know that the two of them had an affair?"

Huo Weilou paused slightly, but he had a sharp eyebrows and did not want to answer. If it were the same, Bo Ruoyou would not dare to ask again, but now he became a little familiar with each other. Bo Ruoyou said again: "Look at her two, although Lu Qing is more proactive, Song Meiniang seems to have accepted his friendship calmly, at least she doesn't realize it is abrupt. If she is concerned, why did she jump into the river that night? Wouldn't you be afraid of giving up Lu Qing alone?"

The group had already gone up to the third floor. Huo Weilou felt a little thoughtful when he heard this, and Bo Ruoyou said to himself: "Or, it's just that Lu Qing shaved his head and picked up a head. Song Meiniang only has her status in Yuchun's class?"

Huo Weilou stopped suddenly, and Bo Ruoyou followed him. Suddenly, she hit him with a "bang". Huo Weilou's body was as hard as iron, and she instantly made the tip of her nose hurt. Before she could take a step back while covering her nose, Huo Weilou turned around, "You are right, Song Meiniang shouldn't jump into the river like that, because-"

Seeing Bo Ruoyou covering the tip of his nose with one hand and frowning his eyebrows, he didn't know whether it was painful or the lights were dim, and there was a shimmering and confusing light, which was so wet that it was fascinating that Huo Weilou could not say anything else.

"Why?" Bo Ruoyou rubbed the tip of his nose and put down his hand. Because the wind in the corridor was too strong, a few strands of ink hair flew on her cheeks, so she raised her slender jade hand and turned the strands behind her ears.

Huo Weilou's throat moved slightly, "Because, if you have something to love, you will not be able to despair easily and die. Lu Qing treats her very seriously, and she is not indifferent."

Bo Ruoyou recalled for a moment, and felt that when Song Meiniang was exposed to her personal relationship, she had only initial surprise, "Isn't she indifferent? She has never seen it in front of others tonight." As she said that, she blinked again, showing a little curiosity, "So what did the marquis hear that night? Could it be that they made a vow?"

Bo Ruoyou was separated by a door that night, but he missed an extremely important scene. And she was actually a woman's nature, and the stories of ordinary talented men and beautiful women were all in the playbook. Now there is a pair of miserable mandarin ducks in front of her. If you say that you are not curious at all, it is fake.

Huo Weilou glanced at her, "I really want to know?"

Bo Ruoyou nodded quickly, his eyes flashed brightly, and he was a little expectant, but Huo Weilou sneered lightly, turned around and entered his cabin a few steps, and closed the door again, and... he left her outside like this.

Bo Ruoyou was stunned at first, then she was a little amused and crying. She didn't say anything, so why did she tease her? But what exactly did she have to cover her so tightly? Could it be...

Bo Ruoyou's cheeks were slightly red. Could it be that what he said was so intimate that she could hear it? Her heart was thrilled and she quickly walked back to the room.

Huo Weilou returned to the room, pulled off his jade belt and threw it on the couch. He took off his outer robe and threw it aside. He removed his outer robe. He should have been cold, but he felt extremely hot. He had always abstinence and relieved his own desires. For him, it was even more troublesome to find a woman to solve the problem. Moreover, his temperament was even more impossible to let others approach him. So this body bone cultivated his body and cultivated his nature and had never made any mistakes after many years, but now it is a bit difficult to suppress.

The most youthful time I was over at the age of 10, but now I can't control myself?

Is he old or has he trained less recently?

"Come"

Huo Weilou heard Bo Ruoyou enter the next door and suddenly called someone at the door. Eunuch Fu quickly came from the end, "What are the instructions of the marquis?"

Then he heard Huo Weilou say a little irritably: "Go and get water, get cold water."

Eunuch Fu's eyes trembled when he heard this, "Marquis... It's still in the cold weather now, especially on this boat..."

Before the word "cold" was finished, Huo Weilou's eyes were unquestionable, "Practice in winter and practice in summer and practice in summer. When will this hou be concerned about the cold and warmth? Go and do it quickly!"

Eunuch Fu had no choice but to leave.

In the cabin next door, after Bo Ruoyou was lying down, she heard that Huo Weilou was making a lot of noise. She still remembered how Huo Weilou was treating her just now, and she snorted in her heart and fell asleep.

The next morning, Bo Ruoyou woke up just as dawn as before. She still remembered that the interrogation had not been completed last night. She wanted to wait for Huo Weilou to wake up and get a lot of what she had earned last night, but when she left the door, she saw that Huo Weilou's door was closed and seemed to have not woken up.

She took a lighter pace and asked outside Cheng Yunzhi's door. Seeing that Cheng Yunzhi had already gotten up, she wanted to go downstairs to get breakfast for Cheng Yunzhi. But before she could walk a few steps, she suddenly heard something moving on the stairs below. She quickly looked at the east side of the stairs. When she saw that Huo Wei was wearing a black robe and dancing a sword on the stairs.

Bo Ruoyou couldn't help but stop.

The tower is vast and the tower is wide, Huo Weilou holds a three-foot green edge in his hand, his body is agile and agile, sharp as an eagle and falcon, his sword is moving in the flowing water, like a stunning geese wandering in the dragon, so far away, as if thin and faint, it seems that he can feel the advantage of the sword wind.

In the early morning, the sky was light and the entire tower was quiet and quiet. Huo Weilou started dancing from nowhere. Every sword he was calm and neat, and his momentum could break the wind and waves. There was also a pleasing kind of rebellious and cruel aura that belonged to the man flowed out of him, which made him unable to open his eyes.

The boat was already walking very slowly. The entire second floor was guarded by embroidered clothes, and there was only Huo Weilou on the tower. His ink robe rose in the wind. Between the vast waters of the Pingjiang River, a little free and easy feeling was transcendent to external things, as if the dustless knight was present, using mountains and rivers as sword energy, and using the sun and the moon as souls as his heart, wanting to sway the full spirit between heaven and earth.

She stared at Huo Weilou intently.

I don't know how long it took, Huo Weilou stopped with a neat gesture, and sweat fell down his cheek. He raised his hand casually, and suddenly felt something like he turned around and looked at the railing on the third floor.

With his eyes facing each other, he didn't know how long Bo Ruoyou stood, but he just raised his eyebrows lightly, but Bo Ruoyou on the third floor felt panic in his heart. She felt embarrassed to peek but be caught, but her face was calm and blessed with blessings, and then turned around and went downstairs. The moment he turned around, Bo Ruoyou breathed out.

Her heart beat like a drumbeat.

After turning the corner and going down the stairs, completely blocking Huo Weilou's vision, she finally relaxed completely. She raised her hand and covered her heart, feeling that she was afraid she was seasick, and her heartbeat was a bit unusual.

When he arrived at the kitchen on the first floor, Bo Ruoyou calmed down and was about to get breakfast, but the leading chef asked carefully: "Dare you asking the girl, did the marquis blame the villain last night?"

Bo Ruoyou was a little confused, "Why did the Marquis blame you?"

The boatman said sadly: "Although the water on the boat is not short of water, there are examples for cooking, drinking tea, and bathing everywhere. Last night, the marquis ordered someone to come and take a shower, but there was not enough of it. The guards didn't say anything, but the villains were very frightened-"

The nobles think that the river water is dirty, so they saved enough water when the building ship set off. However, it has been several days since they were on the road, and the water for bathing and washing has been almost used. Today, they could have replenished it at Changfeng Ferry, but they didn't expect Huo Weilou to suddenly ask for water last night.

Bo Ruoyou was a little surprised that the cold Tianhuo Weilou wanted cold water, and comforted her mouth: "The Marquis will not blame him."

The boatmen felt at ease after hearing this. At this time, Bo Ruoyou saw two medicine jars for decorating medicine outside the kitchen. Her brow raised slightly, "Whose medicine jar is this?"

The boatman hurriedly said: "One is Master Song from Yuchun's class, and the other is Mrs. Hu."

Bo Ruoyou raised his eyebrows slightly, and he couldn't help but tell the difference. When he looked, he saw that Mrs. Hu was pregnant and the medicines she decocted were all medicines for fertility. However, in Song Meiniang's medicine jar, there was the prescription she prescribed.

Bo Ruoyou asked: "How many times does Song Master have medicine a day?"

"Three times a day, I drank it for three days, but I stopped for half a day."

"Have you stopped for half a day?" Bo Ruoyou frowned slightly. Thinking that Song Meiniang's condition had not changed, she only felt that she had found the crux of the problem. It was just a matter of time. Why should she stop the medicine for half a day?

At this time, another nanny who was serving on the boat came over and said with a sigh: "The medicine started to be boiled on the afternoon of the second concert. As a result, early the next morning, Song Jia suddenly vomited and felt a little palpitations and dizzy. She couldn't even use food, so the medicine was stopped for half a day."

Vomiting, palpitations and dizziness?

Bo Ruoyou's eyebrows suddenly frowned. The prescription she prescribed was to clear heat and clear the orifices, to suppress shock and stop spasms. Song Meiniang's body was hot, which was typhoid fever. In addition, she jumped into the river and was easily invaded by evil winds. Therefore, her prescription included talc, saltpeter, agarwood, licorice, and Scrophularia ginseng. These medicinal materials were prescribed with the right amount, and the dosage was mild. The vomiting and palpitations that the nanny said was caused by excessive use of this prescription.

She picked up the medicine jar and turned it over with the bamboo chopsticks inserted there. She found that the dosage of the medicinal materials is appropriate. If that is the case, how could she vomit and palpitations? It was as thin as water, but soon, a trace of sudden enlightenment appeared in her eyes. vomiting, palpitations, and even sweating and cold, all of which were damaging the yin. In addition to overdose, there was another situation that could lead to this condition.
To be continued...
