Chapter 291 Mencius's mother was kidnapped

At this moment, Ren Moci and Shen Han are standing straight around Zhou Ke, who are writing on the desk.

General, it is reported that Ye Zilian went to the palace. It seems that he also reacted and knew that Ye Ziqi's so-called evidence was enough to kill the Ye family. Ren Moci reported truthfully.

"Hence, after all, Ye Zilian didn't let me treat him as an opponent for nothing."

"Miss Ying'er's maid has been disposed of. According to her subordinates, the young lady is a knife-butter. On the surface, she doesn't care about the general's affairs, but in fact, she will cooperate with the general to not attend the palace banquet tomorrow, and she also takes the initiative to deal with Ying'er. Miss is always devoted to the general."

"Ye Ziqi's evil, a good girl, let him be destroyed like this." Zhou Ke ignored his evaluation of Zhou Xinran and only sighed at the tragic fate of Yinger. But this emotion does not contain a trace of sadness. After all, Yinger is just a pawn. Ye Ziqi took advantage of her, and Zhou Ke also took advantage of her.

"General, make a decision! The emperor wants to design to take you. Are we just waiting for death?

"Yes, general, it's time for us to raise soldiers for a thousand days." Shen Han also echoed.

At this time, Zhou Ke has just finished writing the last word. Gently put the pen aside, stood up for a long time, and slowly said a few words to Ren Moci, "Order, act."

"Yes!" Ren Moci got the order to leave. Shen Han stayed and waited for Zhou Ke's other instructions.

" Shen Han, go and give this letter to Qin Manxiu."

"General..."

"In addition, go to the handover place to bring Meng Ling back."

Shen Han knew that the general had placed his own people in Ye's mansion early. When he promised to send Meng Ling to Ye's mansion some time ago, he was by no means generous or afraid of Ye's power, but had other plans.

"Haven't the general given up the map of soldiers and horses? Qin Manxiu has made trouble for us more than once. According to his subordinates, he should kill him quickly.

"Yes, it's much better than nothing. As you know, we are not fully sure at present. If it hadn't been for the emperor's forced too much, I wouldn't have chosen to do it at this time. With the distribution map of soldiers and horses, it is much easier to do things. It's just a Qin Manxiu. As long as his mother is in our hands, he will send the map obediently.

"Is that picture still in Yefu? They won't be sent to the palace together, will they?"

"I don't know where the picture is, but Qin Manxiu will find out, won't it?"

Shen Han understood what Zhou Ke meant. Although he didn't agree, he still did so.

In Ye's house, just as several maids served Meng Ling to bathe, one of the maids suddenly stunned the others, and Meng Ling also disappeared.

Almost at the same time, Man Xiu, who was diagnosed by the doctor and rested alone, received a letter. And the letter was tied to the head of his bed with darts.

The feeling is not good. I hurriedly opened the letter and looked at it. What is not in harmony with the beautiful calligraphy font is the content of calligraphy. His mother was kidnapped, and the exchange condition was the distribution map of soldiers and horses... Although there was no payment, Man Xiu also knew who wrote the letter to him, because when he was around Zhou Ke, he had seen him write, which was as beautiful as now.

Man Xiu handed the beautiful letter to the burning candle, and he hurriedly put on his coat and ran to his mother's bath. When he saw several maids lying on the ground, he knew that the content of the letter was true.

The wind is still a little strong tonight. Manxiu walked out of the bathing place quietly and stood at the door for a moment. After feeling the coolness, he wrapped his coat tightly and looked up at the sky. Maybe this is his life.

The footsteps moved unconsciously and quickly arrived at the front hall, where Yuan Fei, Lin Yi, and Ye Zi seemed to be anxiously waiting for something. I guess it was the result of Ye Zilian brought back.

"Uncle Yuan, uncle." Man Xiu stepped into the front hall and calmly greeted Yuan Fei and Lin Yi. To Ye Ziqi, Man Xiu just nodded gently and said hello.

"Why don't you have a good rest? Didn't the doctor say that you suffered a minor internal injury and you have to take good care of it?" Yuan Fei got up and asked with concern.

"Oh, it's okay. Lying there alone, it's a little unsteady.

"What's wrong with this Ye Zilian? He didn't come back after going there for so long! So is my father. As soon as he heard him enter the palace, he desperately folded it. At least he sent a letter back! Isn't something going on?" Ye Ziqi said with some irritability and worry.

"The palace is not close to here. It always takes time to go there, doesn't it?"

"Oh, I know..."

At this moment, several people were speechless, and Man Xiu also sat down quietly. After a while, Man Xiu said, "That's right, uncle, the map of soldiers and horses..."

"Oh, did you say that Yuqing separated from the egg-shaped jade pendant? It's amazing that there is such a big secret hidden in such a small jade pendant.

"Yes, it's thanks to Ma Haiqing who can come up with this method. Has the picture also been handed over to the emperor?

"Oh, I heard that it was seen by the emperor. After the emperor saw it, Long Yan was furious and directly fell the picture on the face of the Privy Council. The distribution map of soldiers and horses can be lost, which shows that they have dereliction of duty.

"Ah, then the Privy Council should be more careful when it takes care of the map in the future."

"Um, this picture has to be kept with the evidence when Ma Haiqing is interrogated in the future. For the time being, the Privy Council can't keep it even if it wants to."

"Oh? Is it Brother Ye's trial or Kaifeng's trial?

"This case has always been investigated by Lord Ye. Of course, it is more reasonable for him to try it. Although the emperor did not speak clearly, he has allowed Lord Ye to go to Shaanxi to arrest Ma Haiqing and go to Beijing for trial. It should be an acquiescence to Lord Ye for trial. Even that picture is also held by Lord Ye now, isn't it?"

"Oh? Is that picture now in Ye's house?

"Well, Lord Ye should have put it properly."

The distribution map of soldiers and horses is in Yefu, which saves him a lot of strength. However, do you really want to steal this map to save his mother? Steal the picture to Zhou Ke, maybe you can change back to your mother, but what about the Song Dynasty? Do you really want to be the accomplice of Zhou Ke's change of dynasty? Can he be famous for thousands of years?

"What do you do to inquire about the distribution map of soldiers and horses?" At this time, Ye Ziqi asked curiously.

"Oh, just asking. But put it away, and don't let anyone steal it."

"Well, even if the whole Ye Mansion is lost, the picture can't be lost. Thinking about it, my brother is really amazing to put the picture on her!"

"He?"

"Ha ha, it's nothing!"

Man Xiu didn't ask any more. He knew that if he asked again, Ye Ziqi would not say anything, but it seemed that he was suspicious. But who will he, or her, be?

After a while, Man Xiu got up and said to everyone, "Mom should take a bath. I'll take a look and accompany her."

"Ye, that's fine."

Without looking back, he walked out of the door of the front hall and went straight to He Jinlan's room. Yes, no one would have thought that Lord Ye Zilian, a master of solving the case, would put such important evidence on a woman. If it hadn't been for Ye Ziqi's reminder, I'm afraid Man Xiu would not have guessed it for a while.

"Brother Manxiu!" Jinlan was surprised and happy to see Man Xiu come to her room. Du Xueer looked at Manxiu with scrutiny. Didn't he let him rest? I was afraid of disturbing him, so I didn't bother him. This man became idle.

"Haven't you left yet?" Seeing that Xue'er was also there, he couldn't help but be stunned. He thought that when his aunt and Shiling left, Xue'er also left together.

"Why, you don't want to see me so much and want to drive me away?"

"No, I'm just saying that it's getting late. I'm not worried about you as a girl on the road." The words seemed to come out without a brain. When she said it, she couldn't help but practice, and Xue'er also blushed for a while.

"hehe." Jinlan beside her smiled. Cher, let's talk about it another day. It's so late. If you don't leave, someone should really be worried.

"That... Yuwei asked Xiao Fei to pick me up. It's okay..."

"In an eventful time, it's better to be careful." Xue'er's face was hot again, but her heart was really warm and caret about her from the bottom of her heart.

"Blessed, Brother Man Xiu, what's the matter with you coming to me so late?"

"Oh, it's about the distribution map of soldiers and horses. Brother Ye said that he put the picture here?"

He Jinlan was stunned. Only Ye Zilian, who accidentally heard the conversation between him, and Ye Ziqi knew that Brother Manxiu... was the same. This picture was returned by Uncle Qin's life, and Man Xiu's brother came back with his life. It was also reasonable to tell him.

So, Jin Lanwan smiled and said, "Yes, Brother Ye put the picture here. What, does he want it?

"Oh, he just sent someone to reply from the palace and asked for the distribution map of the soldiers and horses. The emperor said he would also want to see me, so I'll bring it there together."

"Oh? So late? Bring it to you by yourself?"

"Yang Quan is also back. I'll go with him."

"Okay, then... you take it... Brother Man Xiu..." Jin Lan carefully took out the picture and handed it to Man Xiu.

"Don't worry, it's okay."

Man Xiu took the picture, smiled at Jinlan and Xueer, and then went out of the room. I don't know why Cher always feels a little awkward. Is it that smile? Why is it not like a plain smile, but with some bitterness in it? Uneasy, why is there such a strong uneasiness? Is there anything wrong with going to the palace? Why did the emperor suddenly think of seeing Man Xiu?

Just as Xue'er's mind was full of doubts, a girl entered the door and said to her, "Miss Xue'er, Mr. Xiao is here. He said that he was ordered to escort you back, and he is waiting in the lobby now.

At the order? By the order of Lin Yuwei! Cher and Jinlan couldn't help smiling at each other.

"Okay, let him wait a moment. I'll say goodbye to Aunt Meng and go back with him."

When Cher and Jinlan went to Aunt Meng's room together, it was empty. When asked, he also said that he didn't even see the maid he was serving.

"You haven't taken a bath yet, right?"

"Let's go and have a look."

A strong uneasiness surged into their hearts at the same time, and their hearts completely cooled when they saw several maids fainting on the ground.
