Chapter 80 Sihexiang 20
The feeling of Huo Weilou's knuckles brushing against her forehead was still there. Bao Ruoyou's heart was beating a little fast, and her face was slightly hot. She quickly lowered her head, shook her head silently, and looked for paper again. , copy the sentences that can be combined.
The hand holding the pen was a little stiff, and she was a little distracted. Huo Weilou felt helpless when he saw her like this. When he turned around, Huo Weilou met Eunuch Fu's glaring eyes. Huo Weilou raised his sword eyebrows slightly, as if he didn't know. Why is he like this.
Seeing that Bo Ruoyou was humorous and silently copying the words, Huo Weilou went to the study again. He had official documents to read and could not look at Bo Ruoyou all the time. Eunuch Fu followed him in small steps. When he entered the study, he said in a strange voice: "The Marquis can no longer hold back anymore. I'm afraid everyone in the room will see it."
Eunuch Fu lowered his voice for fear that outsiders would hear him, but Huo Weilou stabbed the desk and sat down, saying nonchalantly: "Did everyone in the room see it? I don't think so."
Huo Weilou had something to say, but Eunuch Fu snorted and said, "Master Hou has figured it out now? What is his plan?"
Huo Weilou glanced at him for a moment, then glanced outside again, as if he was afraid that Bo Ruoyou would hear him talking too much. Eunuch Fu curled his lips again, with a mocking tone, "I don't know who said to be patient. Forget it, now that Ning Xiao is in charge of this case, you can just ask one or two questions every day, but you dare to break the appointment with His Majesty because of this case. Today, you go out for another day. In total, it’s another two days. I haven't closed my eyes all day and night, and even a fool would look at it."
Huo Weilou didn't have much thought in reading the official document. Seeing Eunuch Fu's pressing questions, although he didn't answer, he thought in his heart, even a fool can see it, why can't the fool outside see it?
Huo Weilou raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, "I really wanted to forget it before."
He has been in power for many years and holds a high position. He cannot be said to be ruthless and severance, but he has ordinary emotions and six desires, and there is really nothing he can do. Even though he was very unwilling to let go of the military power in the north, he finally let it go. The burden on my body is not light in the first place, so there is no need to distract myself with idle thoughts.
But this time, it is difficult to calculate.
Seeing Eunuch Fu looking at him with piercing eyes, Huo Weilou also looked directly at him, "Don't talk nonsense in front of her. I think she is no different from a fool. She is very stupid. You know these things around me, if If you really want to make a decision, you have to take a long-term approach. How can it be explained clearly in a few words? All I can do at the moment is protect her Ichigo."
Eunuch Fu's eyes lit up when he heard this. After all, Huo Weilou rarely expressed his thoughts in these days, and he never said a word if he was not completely sure of his actions. What he said now will never come out of his mouth. , then he must be as strong as iron and must do it.
"Old slave knows that Youyou is different after all. When the Marquis has his thoughts, I will only be happy. How can I talk nonsense in front of Youyou?" Eunuch Fu burst into tears with excitement, "The marriage of the Marquis is indeed true. This is a major matter and should not be taken lightly, and I understand this too."
After Eunuch Fu finished speaking, he looked at Huo Weilou with a look of relief, as if his long-cherished wish was over. Huo Weilou looked a little helpless. At this time, Eunuch Fu smiled slightly and looked outside: "But, what is Youyou thinking?" ? The old slave sees that she has no intention of getting close to the Marquis in front of him. Although she is not afraid of the Marquis, it doesn’t seem like she is interested in him——"
These words touched Huo Weilou's pain point. Thinking of Bo Ruoyou's words and deeds in the past two days, Huo Weilou felt his head hurt again.
He said impatiently: "Okay, you don't need to worry about this, I have my own rules."
But Eunuch Fu was not optimistic about him, "What kind of rules does the Marquis have? I won't talk about the Lin family, but what if Youyou has her own opinions on marriage?"
"So what if she has her own opinion?" Huo Weilou sneered, "It's very simple to go from something to nothing."
Eunuch Fu sighed when he heard this, "Look, Mr. Marquis, you are too scary. This...this matter between men and women is not so forced..."
Huo Weilou snorted, "I still need you to teach me?"
Eunuch Fu was still unsure at the bottom of his heart. Thinking of the fact that there was another Lin family, he asked: "The Marquis previously said that he would give Lin Zhao and the eldest daughter of the Bo family a marriage, do you still want it now?"
Hearing this, Huo Weilou thought of the Miss Bo whom he met today, "Why do you want to grant a marriage? She promoted them in vain. They were already engaged. Based on her temperament, she knew the truth back then. I don't even bother to compete for marriage." After a pause, he raised the tail of his eyes lightly, "Besides, I have already asked her, and she has not taken Lin Zhao into her eyes at all."
Eunuch Fu looked at Huo Weilou with wonder. If Huo Weilou were a monkey, his tail must have been raised to the sky at this moment. He only felt a little bit sour in his teeth, thinking of Huo Weilou's serious appearance before, I couldn't help but want to say something mean to him, "But old slave, look at it, Youyou doesn't even see you, Lord Marquis, in your eyes now..."
Before Huo Weilou's expression changed, Eunuch Fu ran out quickly.
Bo Ruoyou filled two pieces of rice paper with writing, and came to the study with a serious expression. However, he saw Eunuch Fu walking out of the front corridor of the study, turning his head three times at a time. As he walked, there was fear on his face. He looked carefully. She was secretly happy again and raised her eyebrows. At this time, Eunuch Fu also saw her.
Eunuch Fu always treated her kindly, but now that he knew Huo Weilou's thoughts, he saw that she was different from others, "Youyou, have you finished writing it?"
The night was already dark at this moment, and Bo Ruoyou had a tired look on her face. She nodded, and Eunuch Fu followed her for two steps, "Okay, I'm afraid it will take some time for the talented man from China to arrive at the house. Please report back to the Marquis." That’s it.”
Bo Ruoyou responded. Eunuch Fu looked at her and hesitated for a moment, but left without saying anything.
Bao Ruoyou was a little confused and didn't know what happened to Eunuch Fu. When he stepped through the door, he saw Huo Wei's building was as dark as the bottom of a pot. He heard footsteps coming in and looked up. When he saw it was her, his face seemed to be dark again. One point.
She was at a loss for a moment. She didn't know what Huo Weilou was upset about. If Huo Weilou was angry about something at the moment, Eunuch Fu had no reason not to remind her.
She hesitated and almost wanted to turn around and go out.
"What are you doing standing there?" Huo Weilou said angrily.
Eunuch Fu's words just now hit his sore spot. He felt that Bo Ruoyou was innocent and stupid, but he never thought about what would happen if Bo Ruoyou didn't see him in his eyes?
Although he looked mature and prudent, only Huo Weilou himself knew how much arrogance he had in his heart. When this arrogance reached Bao Ruoyou, it would be even worse than mine. How could Bo Ruoyou not take him into his eyes?
The more he thought about it, the sharper his eyes became, forcing Bao Ruoyou to stop when he reached the desk, not daring to get close.
"Master Hou——"
Bo Ruoyou hesitated, Huo Weilou said quietly: "Say."
Bao Ruoyou swallowed and then said: "Lu Wenhe lied a lot. He said he had only met Wei Ling twice. But from the letters written by Wei Ling, it must be more than that. He also said it was the first time. After meeting, he rejected Wei Ling's request and said that he knew that Wei Ling was very different from him in status and had no future, so he saw her admiration and dealt with it decisively. However, what Wei Ling said in the letter was not the case - "
Huo Weilou looked slightly relaxed and waved, "Bring it over and let me take a look."
This natural word "I" was not realized until Bo Ruoyou came to him. Huo Weilou took the two pages of paper, which were filled with beautiful hairpin flowers in regular script, but most of them were short sentences. It was not a chapter, and Bo Ruoyou said somewhat impressively: "Master Hou probably can't understand it, the civilian girl's writing is a bit confusing——"
Huo Weilou said "Oh" and leaned back on the back of his chair, "Then tell me."
He held the paper in one hand and did not let go. Bo Ruoyou couldn't help but lean closer, "All the words here are pieced together from the excerpts just now. There may be distortions, but it's just a folk girl." It has been compared and most of the words appear more than once, so most of them should be reasonable."
Huo Weilou nodded, and Bo Ruoyou pointed at the paper and said, "As I said just now, Wei Ling's words are extremely humble. In addition to the elegant nickname, he often calls Lu Wenhe the word 'Mr.' "Submission," Wei Ling wrote in several places about looking forward to seeing him again, and also about his longing for him. The words he used were both ambiguous and humble, as if his whole body was controlled by Lu Wenhe. When he got excited, he even wrote that he was willing to devote himself to him."
"If Lu Wenhe seriously rejected Wei Ling's invitation, how could she keep claiming that he was her husband? And Luxiu said that Wei Ling was lively and liked poetry, and he was born into a noble family. How could he be right? Is Lu Wenhe so humble? Also, the education Wei Ling received since childhood must have been excellent, but there are many ambiguous words in this letter——"
Huo Weilou frowned slightly, "Where?"
Bo Ruoyou leaned forward and said, "There are several common love poems. There are also the word 'Hehuan' here and the word 'Wushan'." She pointed out one by one, Huo Weilou, who had left the building unknowingly. Getting closer, at this time, she pointed to the next few words, "There is also the word 'red candle' here. Could it be that she wants to marry Lu Wenhe? But why did she write 'pouring red candle'? It's a bit strange. ..."
Bao Ruoyou looked puzzled, but Huo Weilou changed his expression in an instant. He frowned at Bo Ruoyou and saw that she had a plump waist, painted eyebrows, and a slight open mouth, and the fragrant light fragrance on her body. The spiritual energy seemed to rush towards Huo Weilou. He suddenly put the paper in his hand on the table and said, "These are enough."
Bo Ruoyou straightened up and took two steps away, "Lu Wenhe and Wei Ling met more than twice. Later, she went to Chongwen Library many times. She thought that there was a private meeting with Lu Wenhe, but she didn't meet him on the day of the incident. After meeting Lu Wenhe, she went to the painting and calligraphy studio."
Huo Weilou glanced at Bo Ruoyou, who was unaware, but his expression was a little gloomy. Wei Ling was afraid that it was more than just a private meeting with Lu Wenhe.
There are a few pieces of paper left that have not been copied, but now that it is certain that Lu Wenhe is lying, Huo Weilou does not need her to copy anymore. It is already past midnight, the night is already very dark, and Bo Ruoyou is hesitating whether to leave. After leaving the mansion, Lu Wenhe was captured by Ning Xiao.
Huo Weilou wanted to continue questioning in the side hall. When Bao Ruoyou wanted to follow him, Huo Weilou didn't let her follow for some reason. She had no choice but to stay in the main hall.
Compared to the last time when he waited calmly in the side hall, Lu Wenhe today was in a state of embarrassment. When he was pushed into the side hall, Huo Weilou was sitting leisurely at the main seat drinking tea. When he saw him being brought, He didn't even raise his eyebrows.
Lu Wenhe had a fearful look on his face. He shook his sleeves and wanted to salute, but Ning Xiao kicked him in the crook of the leg, causing him to instantly kneel to the ground. Ning Xiao said coldly: "How can I be in front of the Marquis?" There are only a few people standing and saluting, so who do you think you are?"
Lu Wenhe showed pain, and his face quickly turned red. Although he was not an official, he was a scholar and passed the exam. This dynasty treated scholars very politely, so he would not have knelt down. , obviously, today is very different from that day.
"Greetings...meet the Marquis." Lu Wenhe said nervously.
Huo Weilou still didn't look at him, only a pair of eyes fell lightly on the tea cup in his hand. But the more silent he became, Lu Wenhe felt an invisible force of oppression covering him like a net, forcing him to breathe. It was not smooth, and I was sweating in a moment.
Ning Xiao said: "Do you know why I brought you here tonight?"
Lu Wenhe shook his head in fear, "I don't know, I don't know. I already said what I needed to say last time, so I don't dare to say anything false."
Huo Weilou only raised his eyes at this moment. His eyes were dark and brimming with sharp cold light. He raised his hand. Eunuch Fu on the side stepped forward and threw the scraps of paper written by Wei Ling in front of him.
Although the piece of paper was in small pieces, the handwriting on it was obvious. Lu Wenhe recognized the words on the gold-sprinkled paper at a glance, and his face suddenly turned pale, "What... is this? Who wrote this?"
Seeing that he was still acting coyly, Huo Weilou suddenly raised his eyes and glanced at the sky outside, "What time is it?"
Gong Fu said fairly: "Master Hou, it's time for you to be ugly."
Huo Weilou nodded slightly, "I'm exhausted, take him to the prison for trial."
Eunuch Fu immediately said: "Yes, there are still three hours until dawn. Before dawn, I should be able to shake off every word."
Lu Wenhe didn't react for a moment, but saw Eunuch Fu wave his hand to Ning Xiao. Ning Xiao immediately came forward with two embroiderers to pick him up. They lifted him up one on the left and the other on his right. He suddenly came to his senses and took him to the prison! They were all attacked before dawn, which clearly meant that they would be punished.
Who in the world doesn’t know the methods used by the embroidered clothes commanders to torture and interrogate confessions?
Lu Wenhe's expression changed drastically, "Master Hou, what do you want to ask me? Please ask me. I dare not hide it——"
Huo Weilou didn't say a word, and Lu Wenhe was held hostage and led to the door.
Seeing that he was about to be taken out, Lu Wenhe knew that if he didn't speak, he would really have no chance, so he twisted his neck with difficulty and shouted: "Master Marquis, I do know the second lady of the uncle's house. We...we are in love. Happy..."
The embroiderer's movements were stagnant because of his words. Huo Weilou looked at him indifferently, as if he was looking at a dead object. "I rarely see people like you who don't know whether to live or die." He waved his hands as if he had no intention of doing anything else. Listen to him.
Lu Xiuwen was dragged out again, and when he was about to go out, Lu Xiuwen twisted around and said: "Master Hou! The villains are all here, and the villains are here... Wei Ling is stupid, it's me... ...I tricked her..."
Huo Weilou moved his fingers lazily, and the embroiderer let him go. Lu Wenhe turned back and knelt down. He walked a few steps on his knees and then said with a hint of tears: "The first time we met was indeed in At the literary meeting in Zhongyi's house, Wei Ling liked my poems and we really wanted to make friends. When I saw that she was a lady from the house, I... never refused. But she said she wanted to ask me to be her teacher, but she didn't. It's possible. Firstly, I have a reputation for being talented, so it's impossible for me to really become a master. Secondly, how can their family let a young man come to teach in the family? I... knew it was impossible, so I rejected her. "
"On the contrary, she thought that I had lofty ambitions and was indifferent to fame and fortune, so she admired me even more." Lu Wenhe raised his eyes at Huo Weilou in panic, and when he saw that he didn't look angry, he continued: "Although I refuse to teach, I don't want to give up. After such an opportunity, my family has been in decline since I was a child, and I have been relying on the financial support of the Luji Restaurant. I... If I had a good background, how could I end up where I am today? If so, I would be Miss Bofu, and I have Why is she not worthy? I made an appointment to meet her at Liang Ji Liquor Shop on Fushun Street in the east of the city."
"Liangji Liquor Shop?" Huo Weilou frowned. Although he felt that this liquor shop was particularly unfamiliar, it was on Fushun Street, in the same place as Chongwen Museum.
Lu Wenhe nodded, "It was my mother's dowry. Over the years, there is only a small shop left. The business there is generally quiet, but there is a small yard in the back. I have a bookstore there, and I... ”
The next words seemed to make Lu Wenhe a little scrupulous, but thinking that he would go to jail if he didn't confess truthfully, he finally took a deep breath and said, "When I invited her, I said that there was a difference in status between me and her, so she didn't want to I told everyone that later, she came as expected. The first two times, I only talked about calligraphy and painting with her. As long as I picked out those difficult to understand, she felt that I was very powerful. Gradually, she became more and more interested in me. Obey, she has a noble status and has been pampered since she was a child. She cannot bear to be wronged. But I saw that she has a pure temperament, so I used the method of suppressing my desires first to make her obey me."
"What is the method of suppressing before promoting?" Huo Weilou asked.
Lu Wenhe's face turned pale and green, "That's it... I just listed all the bad things about her first. She felt ashamed and anxious at that time. She also knew that I was good at poetry, so she asked me to teach her. I gave her a little guidance. I continued to praise me, which made her fall in love with me even more. Later, she was willing to do whatever I asked her to do."
First, she suppressed and humiliated her to the point where Wei Ling's pride as a noble daughter of a noble family was shattered. Then she regarded him as a great talent and respected and obeyed him more and more. She killed people and had their hearts set on them. These methods of controlling people were worse than stabbing them with a knife. He must be cruel and not sincere, yet Lu Wenhe said it so lightly.
Huo Weilou said coldly: "So, you made her watch obscene lyrics and songs, and then insulted her."
Lu Wenhe raised his eyes in horror, "I didn't... I just..." He hunched his shoulders and lowered his head, "I was just getting close to her for a while. If I had sex, I would get into endless trouble. I... ”
At this point, the mystery of why Wei Ling went to Chongwen Library alone time and time again was solved, but everyone focused on the library, but did not notice the cool wine shop not far from Chongwen Library, and how could Wei Ling be ordinary? Would you go to such a place?
Huo Weilou's eyes were filled with coldness, and Lu Wenhe was so horrified that he almost collapsed to the ground. He asked again: "Have you ever been to Chuzhou?"
Lu Wenhe was a little confused at this time, "I've never... never been there."
Huo Weilou sneered, "Wei Ling thought you were very talented, but she must have never thought that you are just a loser who has no talent but has to find someone to write poems for you. ”
Lu Wenhe froze in place as if he had been struck by lightning. He came here just for Wei Ling's case, but he never expected that Huo Weilou would even find out about the matter. His expression changed several times, and his body felt like chaff for a moment. trembling, "I...I'm not...I can write...I just can't write for the time being..."
Obviously, it was revealed that he was actually mediocre, which frightened Lu Wenhe even more. Huo Weilou said with cold eyes: "But you instigated Wei Ling to buy your poems and paintings?"
Lu Wenhe was sweating like rain, and he also felt a little abnormally exhausted, "I...it's not that I can't write...oh, yes...I mentioned a few words, but I...I didn't really ask her to buy it. ”
"Ah yes, I want her to spread my talent and fame throughout the family circle, so that those who look at me coldly will feel regretful."
"Oh no, I didn't ask her to buy it. She wanted to buy it herself. She admired me so much that she would die for me. She was really stupid. Later I saw that she was really too stupid. She was a little scared and didn't want to see her, but she still pursued her. She wrote many letters and sent them to the wine shop. She also said that only I could teach her and that she couldn't live without me, hehe, hehe..."
Lu Wenhe looked miserable and spoke repeatedly. His face seemed angry and scared, and he smiled foolishly. He seemed to be going crazy. Eunuch Fu was a little worried when he saw this. Huo Weilou asked again: "Have you ever seen anything on her body?" A cinnabar mole?"
Lu Wenhe raised his eyes, his eyes were a little weak, "Cinnabar mole? The cinnabar mole is right on her heart. It's beautiful...so beautiful...I also...painted a painting, which I also like very much. Hers, I have never painted a woman, she is the first..."
Huo Weilou frowned, "Have you ever painted her naked?"
Lu Wenhe's body was shaking like a spasm. He shook his head but could not say a word. Saliva flowed from the corners of his lips. The next moment, he collapsed on the ground. Mr. Fu said fairly: "I'm afraid It’s because I’m crazy about gains and losses.”
Huo Weilou waved his hand angrily, "Find someone safe to take care of it, and then send someone to search Liang Ji Liquor Shop and Lu Wenhe's house."
Ning Xiao took him to Liangji Liquor Shop, and Mr. Fu asked impartially: "Master Ming, please come over?"
Huo Weilou nodded noncommittally, and Eunuch Fu was a little troubled, "It's so late, and it will be inconvenient for Mr. Ming..."
But now, it’s hard to find a good doctor on the street. Huo Weilou doesn’t even know how to pity women, so why would he delay his business for Ming Guilan’s inconvenience? He solemnly said: “He is a grown man, it’s just an inconvenience. , and he is not sick and weak, go and ask him to come. Lu Wenhe has painted a picture. If the murderer happens to see it, it will be an opportunity for the murderer to regard Wei Ling as a murder target. The sooner he can be tried here, the better."
Eunuch Fu had no choice but to follow the instructions, and two embroiderers took Lu Wenhe to the ear room to watch. Huo Weilou sat for a moment, and suddenly felt empty around him. He remembered that Bao Ruoyou was still in the main hall, so he got up and went to the main hall.
In the main hall, Bo Ruoyou was sorting away the torn papers from the case. When he saw Huo Weilou coming back, his eyes lit up, "The trial is over, Lord Marquis? What can I ask?"
Huo Weilou walked up to her and said, "Almost as we expected, Lu Wenhe did find someone to write for him, and he had many private meetings with Wei Ling. The place was also on Fushun Street, the wine shop where his mother was married."
Bo Ruoyou neatly put the pieces of paper he had written aside, thinking that they might be used as evidence, but Huo Weilou took a quick glance and saw the words "pouring red candles upside down" on them. He frowned, took the paper and rolled it up, put it on the lamp and lit it.
Bo Ruoyou was startled and looked around, just in time to see the four characters being burned by fire, " pouring red——"
Before she finished speaking, Huo Weilou patted her on the top of her hair, "Do you know what it means and you're reading it now?"
Bao Ruoyou touched his head and said, "The daughter of the people doesn't know, does the Marquis know?"
A piece of paper quickly turned into ashes. Huo Weilou glanced at her condescendingly, but turned around and went to the study without saying a word. Bao Ruoyou stood there, with countless questions instantly rising in his heart.
Suddenly, Huo Weilou, who was about to disappear, turned around and told her: "Don't ask others what they mean."
Although Bao Ruoyou was surprised, he still nodded obediently.
