Kaifeng Cat and Mouse Detective Manuscript

Chapter 12 The Golden Water Poison Murder Case 12

"That Yu Shaotian seems quite honest, but I don't believe his words."

When Bai Yutang saw that the maid who led the way had left, he began to complain about Yu Yufei. He was used to going straight and straight.

"He is slick and scheming. He is deliberately concealing Yu Yufei's matter."

Zhan Zhao remembered Yu Shaotian's words, nodded and replied, Jiuhua is located in the south of the Yangtze River, although the courtyard is built rough, it reveals tenderness bit by bit.

"There are too few people here."

Tang Yu patted his chin and looked around. All he could see were bleak fallen leaves and weeds that would not be pruned in the future. It was clearly spring, but it gave people a feeling of late autumn.

"Those who didn't know thought it was about to decline. Have you noticed that from the time we entered the door to the present, we have met no more than ten people." Tang Yu stretched out his hands and made a sign of the cross.

"Indeed, it's as if the entire Tongtian League has no popularity." There were no guards or servants in the huge place, just like an empty city.

"I said this Yu Yufei, isn't he planning something?"

Bai Yutang fumbled here and there in the courtyard, really not sure if he was the cat or Zhan Zhao was the cat.Jumping onto the tree at the corner of the wall again, Zhan Lu threw it to Zhan Zhao, who was looking up at him, and squatted on top to look around from top to bottom.

When Tang Yu and Yan Nanfei returned to the room first, Zhan Zhao also went up to the roof, and saw Bai Yutang staring at the front in a branch.

"Did you find anything?" Zhan Zhao asked, jumping on the branch beside him.

"I just saw that Yu Shaotian, hurriedly walking east." Bai Yutang broke a branch and put it in his mouth.

"East?" Zhan Zhao repeated.

"Yes, I'm walking alone in a hurry. What's there to the east? Hey, cat, do you want tonight?" Bai Yutang winked at him.

"Not tonight. We're new here, so I guess Yu Shaotian will be on guard. We'll wait until we explore the road tomorrow." Zhan Zhao stopped Bai Yutang's thoughts.

"However, this Tongtianmeng is much richer than my Lujiazhuang~" Bai Yutang rolled up a lock of hair on his chest and twirled it around his fingers.

"It's strange to say," Zhan Zhao suddenly thought when Bai Yutang said that the Tongtian League was rich, "The Tongtian League has only been established for a few decades. Where did the money come from to build such a large place? Isn't it cheap?"

There are dozens of rooms here just as Zhan Zhao sees now, and the materials used are even more carved beams and painted buildings. The green willows and stone ponds are dotted between the courtyards. Without hundreds of thousands of dollars, it will definitely not be built.Tongtianmeng is not like Lujiazhuang, it involves many properties, and there are many unending money.

At this time, Tang Yu also talked about Yu Shaotian with Yan Nanfei again.

"Do you think Yu Shaotian is trustworthy?" Tang Yu leaned on the bed and played with a small emerald green snake on his arm. His eyes slanted at Yan Nanfei's little finger, coiled in Tang Yu's palm, following the movement of his left hand. Tang Yu slapped and kissed the snake's head as he danced and swayed from side to side.

"I don't know." Yan Nanfei shook his head while wiping his sword. Tang Yu's snake was picked up in Fallen Star Lake when he rescued him back then. It was a vine snake. Tang Yu nicknamed it Grape for several years. Yes, it has never grown up.

"Yu Yufei was an upright and upright hero when he was young. Although Zhan Zhao and the others picked up the darts from Jinshui Town, they can't guarantee that it was done by a few elders secretly. After all, the Tongtian League has a lot of porridge. I also I advise you not to get involved."

"Don't worry, I'll just find out who poisoned it. After all, grandma is still waiting for my reply in southern Yunnan." Tang Yu pressed his fingers lightly on the snake's body, and sighed as he spoke, "It's a pity that Zhan Zhao is a government official. If you want me to say It’s still very quick to cut through the mess.”

Yan Nanfei didn't reply, just holding the sword to go back to the room.Tang Yu always disliked his character of not being able to give a fart with a stick, and after he left, he cheerfully teased Putao again.

Early the next morning, Yu Shaotian sent someone over to notify Zhan Zhao and the others.Yu Yufei lives in the east, which is quite far from them. When they went out and saw the direction, Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao immediately thought of the place Yu Shaotian hurried to yesterday, and they looked at each other, everything was kept silent.

They were greeted by a middle-aged man who called himself Steward Yu. Zhan Zhao followed him through two doors before seeing a house covered by willow trees.

"The leader likes to be quiet. He has been living here since his illness. These willows were planted by the leader's wife when she was still alive."

Seeing Bai Yutang staring at the dozens of willow trees, Steward Yu explained.

"I didn't expect President Yu to be an infatuated person." Tang Yu said.

"That's right, our wife left early, and the leader never remarried, and raised the young master alone."

The young master that Butler Yu mentioned was Yu Shaotian. According to Bai Yutang's knowledge, Yu Yufei's wife died shortly after giving birth to Yu Shaotian, and many people rumored that they committed suicide.

"The lord and the young master are inside, and the old servants will not go in. Please." Butler Yu pushed open the door, stood outside and bent slightly, inviting the four of them in.

The room was very dark, probably because the cold air would come in, and all the windows were tightly closed.

"Cough cough", several coughs came from inside.

"Father, take your medicine." It was Yu Shaotian's voice.

Zhan Zhao headed in, and saw Yu Yufei leaning on the bed with a withered face, and Yu Shaotian was holding a night of dark medicine, feeding him spoonful by spoonful.

"Master Zhan." Yu Shaotian covered his father with the quilt and adjusted the pillow before coming to Zhan Zhao in peace.

"You have also seen that with my father's current state, it is really impossible to go to Jinshui Town to poison him." Putting down the medicine bowl, Yu Shaotian's tone was full of depression.

"This...how can it be so serious?" Zhan Zhao frowned, looking up and down Yu Yufei, full of doubts, what kind of old disease would make people so thin.

Tang Yu has been dealing with medicine since she was a child. From the moment she saw Yu Yufei, she felt that it was not that simple. She thought that Yu Shaotian would not tell the truth, so she went up to the bedside, insulted Yu Yufei, and put her hand on him pulse.

Yu Shaotian wanted to stop Tang Yu when he stretched out his hand, but Yu Yufei gave him a wink and told him not to stop him.

Tang Yu's expression became weird the moment he got on the pulse, and finally he had to give up and retreat to Yan Nanfei's side.

"What?" Bai Yutang was curious.

"It's really strange, unexpectedly, the pulse pattern is the same. But looking at his complexion, he is poisoned." Tang Yu was tangled, and his brows frowned into a plain word, "Could it be that I'm not good at learning?"

"Master Tang," Yu Shaotian on the side breathed a sigh of relief the moment Tang Yu left, "I have sought dozens of doctors for my father before, and they all said that his pulse is stable, but his body is getting worse and worse. You can barely speak or get off the ground."

"Young Leader, don't be too sad. Leader Yu is an auspicious person." Zhan Zhao saw Yu Shaotian getting lower and lower, and hurriedly comforted him.

"Thank you, it's just that it may not be convenient for father to see guests for too long today, how many?" Yu Shaotian calmed down and said.

"We're bothering you, so I'll take my leave today." Zhan Zhao glanced at Tang Yu, who shook his head at him with a helpless expression, thinking that if he stayed here, he wouldn't be able to ask any questions, so he had to leave first.

"Father..." Yu Shaotian sent the four of them out, closed the door, and sat in front of Yu Yufei's bed again.

"You... come here..." Yu Yufei opened his lips slightly and made an inaudible voice.

"Yes, father." Yu Shaotian listened to him.
