The Young Emperor and the Fearless

Chapter 89: Tempting Children (37)

Mr. Accountant inadvertently pointed out a key point, which was unintentionally a breakthrough in the case.

Heli and his party have lived in the deep palace for a long time, and their understanding of gold bars is not as deep as that of an old man who has been in the secular world. Even Juxie doesn't understand this reason.

After the accountant left, he said softly, "Zhu Changyuan must have obtained this gold bar from someone else, and that person is from a famous family."

It's like saying that Zhu Changyuan kidnapped children and sold them as objects to people of status.As for what those people buy children for, one can deduce one or two from Zhiyuan's experience.

The more He Li thought about it, the angrier he became, that there are such insane people in this world who, in order to satisfy their selfish desires, persecute innocent children, and even disregard human lives!The children who fell into their hands were probably all killed.

Su Yudao: "I'm going to follow Zhu Changyuan these few days to see if he has contact with anyone."

He Li said: "The government officials have started to investigate this matter again. I'm afraid Zhu Changyuan will restrain himself. However, maybe he will do some small tricks secretly in order to conceal people's eyes and ears. Just pay attention, and if necessary, you can put a long line to catch big fish , and find out those who buy children."

Su Yu nodded, and was about to take the order to go out, but remembered something, and said: "The government office shut down Wu Xianming, but only listened to the words of the people, not conclusive evidence. This Wu Xianming, I am afraid he is innocent."

He Li said: "If the truth is found out, Wu Xianming was not the one who did it, the government office will let him go."

Su Yu said, "It's really inappropriate for the Yamen's Office to imprison Miss Li without asking whether it's right or wrong. I don't know if this decree will be able to discern the truth and make an appropriate judgment in the future."

**

At this moment, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and after Su Yu said goodbye to Heli, he was going out to do errands.

He Li stopped him and asked, "Did you eat at noon?"

Su Yu was taken aback for a moment, and replied honestly: "We went to the mansion outside the town with Shi Qi at noon, and missed the meal."

He Li frowned and said, "Then you eat before going out. By the way, it's raining heavily at this time, but you can wait until the rain subsides before you go. If it's convenient, bring an oiled paper umbrella so you don't get caught in the rain."

Su Yu paused, and after a while, he said hoarsely: "Yes."

But Ju Xie smiled lightly, took He Li's hand, as if looking for something fun, squeezed one finger at a time, He Li felt uncomfortable, wanted to withdraw his hand, but was held back by him again, Interlocking fingers.

He Li gave Ju Xie a dissatisfied look.

Su Yu was really about to leave this time, so he turned around and opened the door, He Li said again: "Forget it, let's bring some food to the room, let's eat together."

If Su Yu ate alone, he would just fill his stomach with a few steamed buns.Only by eating together can he eat rice and freshly cooked vegetables well.

Su Yu dropped his hand on the door, turned around and said, "Mr. Li..."

He Li said: "What?"

Su Yu shook his head. If he was close to Li, he would find that Su Yu's eye circles were a little red at this time.But Su Yu didn't say what he was moved by. He just stood there for a while and said, "Then I'll call Xiao Er."

**

The drizzle had been falling for about two hours, and it didn't stop until he fell asleep.

After dinner, Su Yu left alone, He Li was worried about Su Yu, and asked him to cooperate with Su Yu when Shi Qi came back, and told them to remember to take shelter from the rain, take a rest when it's time to rest, and don't be too tired.

The incense in the room has never been broken, and when it was about to burn out, Juxie replaced it with a new one.The candle lamp flickered slightly, making the shadows of the pavilions in the house exchanged for incense as huge as a giant beast.

He Li had just applied the medicine, but still felt some pain in the wound.He was too lazy to move, and stared at the candle lamp with his eyes open, his eyes were sore, and he felt uncomfortable lying down, and wanted to turn over.Tell Ju Xie that he is fine, he stepped into the bed first, lay down in it, then helped He Li change his sleeping position, patted his chest again, and said, "Come here."

The four eyes met, and He Li was a little embarrassed: "Isn't it good to sleep with your back facing, why do you insist on lying in it?"

There was a gleam of light in Ju Xie's dark eyes, and her lips curled up into a peach shape. When she got close, there was a charming color.

He Li can be regarded as a wonderful person who has seen the world, especially three years ago, Yuan Zhimi made up his own mind and wanted to choose a concubine for He Li. He did not know where to move out a bunch of portraits for He Li to choose. Call all the people in the portrait to the palace, and stand apart in a row.When He Li was lured by his clever words, he was almost dazzled by those graceful beauties.

Beauty is naturally beautiful, but it's a pity that Heli didn't care to appreciate it, and Yuan Zhimi took advantage of it in the end.

And the Juxie in front of him actually gave him the illusion that he was even more intoxicating than those beauties.He Li could see goosebumps all over his body, he pulled up the quilt, covered his head numbly, closed his eyes and fell asleep like that.

Ju Xie leaned over with a smile, stretched out one hand outside the quilt, put it lightly on He Li's shoulder, and whispered: "Go to sleep."

The next day, He Li woke up early, and his first thought was to listen to the sound of the rain. Fortunately, the rain stopped. In addition to the loud and clear crowing of chickens in the distance, he could also hear the cheerful chirping of birds.

When He Li moved slightly, Ju Xie noticed it and said, "You're awake."

Ju Xie seemed to have just woken up, her voice was a little lazy, hoarse and deeper than usual.

He Li rolled his eyes, blinked again, and said, "I'm hungry, can I have some steamed buns."

Ju Xie stretched out her hand and tugged at his ear, and said, "Would you like some steamed stuffed buns?"

He Li said: "No, the steamed bun I ate with Su Yu last time was quite delicious."

Ju Xie smiled: "You sent me to buy it for you, do you want to sneak out while I'm not around?"

He Li's face froze, and then he said: "How come! I just want to eat steamed buns, and the steamed buns in the inn are also fine."

Ju Xie really asked Xiao Er to bring a plate of steamed buns, no porridge, not even side dishes.

He Li: "..."

He was speechless for a moment, picked up the steamed bun, pretended to be delicious, and swallowed it after a few mouthfuls.It's a pity that he was choked, he reached out for saliva, and what Ju Xie handed him was a bowl of miserable medicine.

He Li choked so badly that he had to drink the medicine in one gulp, leaving a bitter taste in his mouth.

Ju Xie raised an eyebrow: "Is it delicious?"

He Li held back his tears and said, "How dare you do this..."

When the word 'presumptuous' came to his lips, he ate it back. Now that he is not in the palace, it is better not to say such things.

He Litantou ate two steamed buns, wiped his mouth, and was thinking about what was going on with Su Yu, Seventeen hurriedly knocked on the door and came in.Shi Qi's complexion was sallow, he was lethargic and extremely tired.

He Li said: "What happened to Zhu Changyuan?"

Seventeenth said: "Young Master Li, Zhu Changyuan stayed at his home peacefully and did not do anything out of the ordinary. But something happened in the prison of the Yamen Office. Wu Xianming died. It is said that he committed suicide in fear of crime and hit the wall to death."
