Chapter 222 Different roads leading to the same destination

"Don't make a mistake this time. His Highness sent you here to check the news, but you made such a big mistake. In the end, you still want me to help you..."

Yang Tingye handed the letter to the man in black in the shadow in front of him and asked, "You should leave as soon as possible while it is still dark and their attention is still on the Mei family and Baying."

"That Ba Ying..." The man in black took the letter and hesitated, then finally said, "You need me to help you..."

"No need, I will deal with him myself."

Yang Tingye rejected the other party's proposal.

Emperor Yan Qing died suddenly, and after the new emperor ascended the throne, he couldn't wait to attack the previous princes. His master also spent a lot of effort to escape, and the power in his hands was even more dispersed.

As a result, there is a bit of a shortage of manpower on hand.

But he still doesn't want to believe that his master is so short of manpower.

To actually find such a fledgling kid here?

If Yang Tingye hadn't been worried about this man and put on his night clothes to go over there to have a look, he wouldn't have seen this man beating a fish-stealing woman to death without saying a word.

Oh, he was still thinking about it, saying he remembered it because a knife wound would arouse suspicion, and he also knew how to kill someone with the handle of the knife.

What's the use of just remembering this, when you can't hide anymore without being discovered?

As we go, there is a saying that goes well: "Good luck never comes in pairs, and misfortune never comes alone."

This brat was killing people here, but there was actually a man on the wall next door who witnessed all this.

Seeing that the other party was obviously here to investigate the truth and was going to turn into a mass killing, Yang Tingye finally couldn't help but take action to stop it.

Later, under the coercion and inducement of Yang Tingye, Ba Ying, who witnessed the murder of his wife, finally put away the gold and identified it as Mei You's hand according to their wishes.

Yang Tingye didn't plan on how this person's identification could bring down the Mei family, but——

"Didn't you see when something happened to Mrs. Mei? There were so many people taking action around her. Jiu Baoxuan, who has always been a 'conscientious businessman', actually used his connections to come and visit me...

During the years I have been here in Yue Liao, Jiubaoxuan has no intention of moving around except for giving out some New Year gifts according to the rules during the New Year. Now, for the sake of a little lady, it can be seen that the Mei family is indeed different.

"

While Yang Tingye was speaking, he put his hands behind his back and did not see the admiring eyes of the young man behind him looking at him.

"Although this case is full of loopholes, Meiyou will eventually be released.

However, I would like to take this opportunity to see the secret power of Jiubaoxuan here. Now that your goal has been achieved, you should leave quickly to avoid a long night and many dreams."

·

After Meiberry and Meiyou realized something was wrong, Meiberry and the others wanted to ask someone to go to the prison to check at dawn.

However, before Jiubaoxuan and the others had time to tell them, the news that Ba Ying had committed suicide in prison out of fear of crime had already spread back.

The person who brought back this news was no one else, it was Mei Youqian and the others who had worked hard to steal the body overnight.

After a night of fear, who could have imagined that Mei You has returned safely!

After coming back, they learned that Mei You had been released. Mei Youqian and Mei Youcai were just as confused as Mei You.

"When I quietly returned the body this morning, I happened to see Baying's body and it almost scared me to death!"

Mei Youqian couldn't help shaking his body when he spoke.

They quietly removed the body and brought it back quietly.

God knows how scary it would be to find an extra "husband" next door when the body was brought back to be laid.

"I'll beat you if you don't close your eyes! Couple, it's a scary match to the death!" Mei Youqian washed his hands cleanly and landed at the dining table to have breakfast with Mr. Xue and the others.

"So fast?"

Mei Bei was very surprised when she heard her father say that everyone was dead and was taken to the county government office.

She turned her head and looked at the sky outside the house, which was still not completely bright. She calculated the time it would take for Ba Ying to be imprisoned, and couldn't help but said: "Isn't it true that the front foot died just after entering the prison? Why?

Damn it, dad, third uncle, have you seen it?"

"How did we know? We just took a look and it was Baying, and then we ran back quickly."

When Mei You heard Mei Youqian's words, he nodded repeatedly, swallowed the porridge and said, "No, if I had known earlier, I should have brought Uncle Xue in with me."

Mr. Xue, who was eating porridge on the side, heard what Mei Youcai and the others said. He glared at him fiercely and said, "Aren't I just showing off to you outside? Besides, how can I get in at such an old age?!"

After saying that, he glanced at Mei Bei and Mei You again, and called them to him in a friendly manner. At the same time, he asked Mei Bei how he rescued Mei You last night, and then took Mei You's pulse to see if there was anything wrong.

Not frozen.

"By the way, Grandpa Xue, did you find anything new in the autopsy last night?"

Although it seemed like her father and the others had spent the whole night stealing the body in vain, but now that they knew someone had killed Aunt Ba and framed her for the crime, they actually bribed Ba Ying to do it on purpose.

In the end, it seems that he was suspected of "killing someone to silence him", which in itself is a major discovery.

"Well, the deceased had two injuries on his head, but because most of them were overlapped, they couldn't be easily found."

Mr. Xue's experience was there. He quickly discovered the problem after checking the wounds on Aunt Ba's body.

"It should have been a fatal injury the first time, but the frozen fish hit that spot again the second time."

Mr. Xue's words can be regarded as confirmation that Mei You's matter is indeed not simple this time.

Although Meiyou was acquitted this time, the same real murderer is still at large, so Meiberry and the others have to continue to be vigilant.

The county government has not announced the death of Baying to the public.

Mei Bei later inquired about the news through Jiubaoxuan, saying that the man died because Ba Ying entered the prison with his front foot. The county magistrate felt that he had been humiliated, so he planned to suppress the news until after the New Year.

In response to this, Meiberry twitched the corner of her mouth and didn't know what to say for a while.

And some people in the market who were well-informed or who were up late at night already knew that Ba Ying was taken away overnight.

Now that Mei You has been released, some of the contents here are arousing people's imagination.

Even if the Mei family gave a full explanation, people always like to believe the news that is baseless and based on their own speculation.

For example, Mei Berry's family has a big backer. When someone kills someone, the victim knocks out his teeth and swallows them.

The two brothers, Ba Xiong and Ba Yue, also came to the house to make trouble, but they were also blocked. That night, the two brothers and sisters were missing, which seemed to confirm their suspicions.

This incident had a strange feeling from beginning to end.

Early on New Year's Eve, Mei Mei, Mei You and Tian Qi posted couplets on the door together.

Starting from Xue’s hometown, from right to left.

Tianqiduan batter, plumberry brush batter, plumyou paste couplets.

The three little ones were posting and talking at the same time without stopping.

"You all don't know that the people in this alley now regard our family as savage beasts."

"Yes~ When I came back from buying some wine yesterday, the people chatting at the alley used to ask me what I was doing, but now they don't dare to look at me when they see me."

Meiberry thought of the twinkling eyes those people looked at her, and she didn't know what a cruel person she thought she was.

"They will forget about it after the New Year." Mei You comforted Mei Bei. Mei You was not afraid of rumors at all.

"Besides, this just deters those people who are hesitant. No matter whether we take action against the Ba family or not, if others believe it and are afraid, that's enough."

Meiberry and the others only chatted about this unlucky topic for a while.

After changing the Spring Festival couplets, Meiberry suddenly heard a familiar bird call from above her head. Meiberry looked up and immediately smiled~

"Oh, you must have suffered a lot, and now you are back..."

Mei Mei was holding a basin of meat and standing in the lee of the yard. She did not immediately read the message that Xie Changxu had sent. Instead, she treated Xiao Hui, who had just returned from the journey, well.

Xiao Hui didn't know if he understood what Mei Bei said. Eating meat is like gobbling it up.

Seeing this, Mei Berry couldn't help but wonder: "Is it possible that Xie Changzhen didn't feed you?"

Ignoring Meiberry, Xiao Hui started cooking frantically. Upon seeing this, Meiberry finished feeding the last piece of meat in the basin and then took out the letter.

When she saw the result, Mayberry smiled.

She wrote such a detailed story, why did this person just reply with such a simple sentence - "Does Mrs. Mei Er have any grudges with others?"

Meiberry: I wrote so many words, you are so heartless QvQ!

Xie Changxu: Speaking of other people, I don’t have much to say...
