After saying that, Bai Yi entered the house and closed the door.
Munchun was confused when he heard what he said, and then he looked down at the medicine in his hand and realized it. He coughed twice in embarrassment.
"Many...thank you very much."
After that, she was about to leave, but she heard the door behind her being opened. Fang turned around and saw Bai Yi walking towards her holding an umbrella, reaching out to help her carry the medicine, and said:
"Forget it, I'll send you back in the middle of the night, lest you get lost and the princess has to ask me for someone tomorrow."
As soon as Gu Liyou approached Yusheng Courtyard, he heard Ye Sili coughing and quickly entered the room to ask:
"Why is it getting more serious?"
"Cough... cough cough..."
Ye Sili didn't expect Gu Liyou to come so soon. She quickly lowered her head and wiped the tears caused by coughing from the corner of her eyes, and said calmly:
"Ayou, are your clothes wet?"
"No."
Gu Liyou wiped the rain off his body, went straight into the house, carefully checked whether the windows in the room were closed tightly, then walked to the bed and asked:
"It suddenly rained heavily tonight, and the temperature dropped a lot. Can your body still bear it? If it's still too cold, I'll tell you to light a fire in late spring and summer."
Ye Sili smiled weakly and said, "Ayou is confused again, isn't it? There is too much wind and rain outside, and the doors and windows are closed at this time. How can we light a fire inside?"
There was a knock on the door, and Huan Xia's voice came from outside the house, "Sir, the princess's soup has been boiled."
Gu Liyou went to bring some decoction and fed it to Ye Sili himself to drink.
"Why does Ayou carry raisins with him?" Ye Sili was crying and frowning after drinking the medicine, when she saw Gu Liyou take out the wrapped raisins from his arms.
Gu Liyou put the medicine bowl aside and said warmly: "When did you drink the medicine without eating some sweets?"
Ye Sili smiled, but heard the wind blowing through the roof, and the heavy rain outside the window washed away the last warmth of winter.
"Ayou, the storm tonight is so sudden, I always feel a little uneasy." Ye Sili felt even more uneasy when she thought that her grandfather was still alone in the temple.
Gu Liyou helped Ye Sili cover herself with the quilt and said comfortingly:
"If the rain stops tomorrow, how about we go and take grandpa back home tomorrow? But you need to have a good rest tonight and don't think too much."
"Yeah." Ye Sili nodded.
Gu Liyou stayed by the bedside, gently patting the quilt on Ye Sili's body to coax her to sleep.
When Ye Sili woke up the next day, she heard Qingluo and Bai Yi hurriedly talking outside the door, and her uneasiness became more intense.
"Luchun, why don't you go out and ask what happened?"
"Yes." Late spring put the freshly brought face wash on the table, leaving only Huan Xia to do Ye Sili's makeup.
After a while, Wuchun entered the house, his expression changed slightly, and he said:
"Princess, Master Liang, the Minister of Punishment, was killed last night."
Liang Hai?
"What's going on!" Ye Sili was shocked.
Liang Hai was the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment and an official of the imperial court. How could he be killed so suddenly?
"The specific situation is not clear yet. It's just that Qingluo passed by Liang's house when she went out to buy buns early in the morning. She happened to meet Mr. Liang's entourage returning to the house. Qingluo overheard it."
Ye Sili tried hard to keep her head calm. She wanted to quickly pack up and go to the Liang Mansion in person. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Gu Liyou coming over.
Gu Li was worried that he was in a hurry, and Ye Sili knew that this was probably true.
"Ayou, is there any news about Mr. Liang?"
Gu Liyou approached and said simply: "I'm here to tell you about this. According to reports from Mr. Liang's subordinates, Mr. Liang accidentally fell off a cliff at midnight last night."
Liang Hai has extraordinary skills, how could he accidentally fall off a cliff?
"Can the body be found?"
"Last night there was a violent storm and my subordinates were unable to get to the cliff, so they had to go back home to seek help. By this time, Minister Liang and Miss Liang should have already set off," Gu Liyou said.
"Master Liang is an official of the imperial court after all, and Liang Caicai has not recovered from his injury a few days ago. If it doesn't work, I still feel worried." Ye Sili looked at Gu Liyou anxiously.
"The carriage has been prepared outside the house." Gu Liyou simply said, and then ordered Munchun Huanxia to get some more warm clothes for Ye Sili, and they hurried off immediately.
It was windy and rainy last night, and today the air is filled with the fragrance of earth and biting coldness.
Gu Liyou helped Ye Sili out of the carriage and took a coat from the car to put on her.
"The mountain road is muddy, so be careful." Gu Liyou warned carefully.
"good."
Ye Sili saw Liang Caicai's figure in the distance and immediately ordered:
"Without further delay, we will split up and find Mr. Liang."
"It rained last night. There may be rockslides and mudslides in the mountains now. Please pay attention to your safety."
"Yes." Bai Yi and Munchun Huanxia responded and immediately dispersed.
Together with Gu Liyou and Ye Sili, the valley was extremely wide, and even if they searched for it for a long time, they could not find anything.
While searching, Ye Sili wondered: "When I came here just now, I noticed that the road back to Beijing is clearly some distance away from the cliff above. How could Mr. Liang come here?"
"I'm afraid we have to ask the entourage who followed Mr. Liang yesterday about what exactly happened." Gu Liyou held Ye Sili's hand to prevent her from falling.
It was nearly noon when everyone was searching, and Ye Sili suddenly heard a noise, so he and Gu Liyou hurried over, only to realize that they had found Master Liang's body.
When Ye Sili rushed over, he saw Liang Caicai paralyzed on the ground, crying heartbrokenly, and some guards hid aside and vomited.
She approached the crowd, and Gu Liyou covered her eyes with one hand. She could only smell the faint smell of blood in the air.
"Ayou, it's okay."
Ye Sili prepared her mind and pulled down Gu Liyou's hand. The sight in front of her could only be described as "terrible".
She unconsciously squeezed Gu Liyou's hand and hid behind Gu Liyou. She only glanced at the person on the ground and quickly looked away.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the people on the ground were "shattered into pieces". After falling from such a high cliff, they had already been smashed into a puddle of flesh, with all kinds of internal organs splashed on the ground. And due to the heavy rain last night, blood was washed everywhere.
Is this person actually Liang Hai?
The tip of Ye Sili's nose was filled with the bloody smell of corpses. She suppressed the overwhelming feeling in her stomach. She saw that Liang Caicai was not in the right state. She was thinking of what to say when she saw Liang Caicai suddenly fainted. Fortunately, Liang Yi had quick eyes and hands to help her.
She stayed there to avoid falling into a puddle.
Liang Yi calmly ordered his subordinates to investigate the scene, and then buried Liang Hai underground.
Liang Hai brought Liang Caicai back to Liang Mansion, and Ye Sili took the initiative to stay with her in Liang Mansion.
"Princess, you have not recovered from the cold, so please be careful." Late spring looked at Ye Sili worriedly.
Ye Sili nodded and responded: "I know it well. If you don't look good, you should go home and rest. Just leave Huan Xia here to help."
When she returned to Duke Yu's Mansion in late spring, she went straight to her room. Her stomach hurt so badly that she curled up and fell on the bed.
"Knock, knock, knock" sounded on the door.
"Wuchun." Bai Yi's voice came into the room, and Wuchun shrank into a ball, too uncomfortable to say a word.
"Wuchun, what's wrong with you?" Bai Yi asked worriedly when no one opened the door for a long time.
He knocked for a while and realized something was wrong in Wuchun, so he pushed the door open and entered.
Seeing Munchun lying on the bed, Bai Yi was so frightened that he immediately covered his eyes and turned around.
"Well... I knocked on the door this time, but when I saw you didn't respond, I thought something had happened to you, so I broke in. Since you were fine, I went out."
After saying that, Bai Yi covered his eyes and groped about to go out, but later realized that something was wrong with the person behind him. When he turned around, he saw Mu Chun huddled together with his face inward, trembling all over.
"Wuchun!" Bai Yi hurriedly stepped forward, only to see that Wuchun's forehead was covered with beads of sweat, his eyes were closed tightly in pain, and his body was trembling, but he remained silent.
"Muchun!" Bai Yi called to Munchun in a panic, gently lifted Munchun up and shook her, trying to make her regain consciousness.
Munchun frowned and said with difficulty, "Bai Yi... I'm almost shaken to death by you."
"Bah, bah, bah, what's the matter with death?" Bai felt relieved when he saw that Munchun had woken up. He turned around and saw a pot of medicine on the table beside him, so he went to heat the medicine and fed Munchun to take it.
After taking the medicine, Late Spring fell asleep for half an hour. When she woke up, she saw Bai Yiduan sitting at the table, staring straight at her.
"Bai Yi, what are you doing? You have to stare at me so horribly in broad daylight." Munchun felt much better, sat up and leaned against the bed.
"You're awake." Seeing that she was awake, Bai Yi immediately stood up and approached the bed, then said fearfully: "Do you know how dangerous the situation was just now? You can tell me if you feel uncomfortable..."
"What are you telling me to do?" Mu Chun looked directly at him and asked.
"Tell me..." Bai Yi hesitated for a moment, then raised his voice and scolded: "Do you still think of me as a brother? If you are not feeling well, you should tell me. As a brother, I can at least help you heat a bowl of medicine.
"
Late spring's eyes fell on the empty bowl on the table. He was in a hurry to go out this morning. He had not had time to drink the medicine he sent last night after brewing it. It seemed that the medicine was really effective.
It rained heavily last night, so Ye Sili didn't sleep well, so she stayed indoors and took a nap.
"The princess, the young master and Liang Shilang are back." Huan Xia reported.
Ye Sili woke up instantly, and Ah You and Liang Shilang re-explored the scene, maybe there would be something to gain.
She hurried out of the house and happened to meet Gu Liyou and Liang Yi walking towards them.
When she wanted to ask what was going on, Gu Liyou took the lead and said:
"The rain was so heavy last night that all traces were washed away. Apart from Mr. Liang's body, no clues could be found at the scene."
If no clues are found at the scene, how can we find out the truth about Liang Yi's death?
Ye Sili suddenly thought of someone and asked:
"Where is the attendant who followed Mr. Liang? Did he explain anything?"
Liang Yi said: "His name is Xiaosi."
"According to what he said yesterday, you just wanted to see an old friend and asked him to wait at the foot of the mountain until midnight before going up the mountain to take you back home. Because it suddenly rained, he went up the mountain early. At around midnight he walked
Halfway up the mountain, I suddenly heard your voice calling for help, and when he arrived, I found you had fallen off the cliff."
Gu Liyou asked carefully: "Can he see anyone else when he arrives?"
