Through the troubled times and famine, I just want to farm peacefully

Chapter 358 Unjustly Accused

The Yu and Fan families are like cockroaches that can't be killed. They actually dared to touch her people. So there's no need to blame her men for being ruthless.

A carrier pigeon flew out from the backyard of the inn. It was brought by Yunye.

After finding some strong cloth belts, Lin Yinan and Yun Mo carried Nineteen and Yun Junding on their backs respectively, and took the Qianxia sisters out of the city overnight. Outside the city, they rode at full speed to Chi'an with a group of secret guards.

The remaining injured secret guards will break camp and disguise themselves to enter the city early tomorrow morning to take care of Yunye and others who remain in Shigong City.

In order to take care of Lu Yashuang's health, Yunye and his team would have to rest in Shigong City for at least half a month before returning to Longtan.

As for Nanzhou Prefecture, even if Yu Xunmei was not dead, he had suffered such a heavy blow that he would not be able to send anyone to deal with them in a short period of time.

Yu Xunmei was indeed not dead. At the moment the bomb exploded, the guards pushed her aside, barely avoiding the range of the explosion.

When Lin Yinan and his men launched a massive attack, she took advantage of the chaos and hid in a carriage.

"Let my brother use such a powerful weapon to deal with them when we get back!"

"Miss, there is no such hidden weapon in the army."

This was the first time the guards had seen such a powerful hidden weapon.

Looking at his subordinates who were blown to pieces and lying on the ground wailing, Yu Xunmei was so angry that he almost wanted to spit fire.

She didn't believe the guard's words, "How could the military government not have such weapons?"

"It's absolutely true! I have never seen it before."

While the two were talking, the guards and killers saw that the situation was hopeless.

"Miss, we have to get out of here as soon as possible!"

He called the three guards on his left and right to get on the carriage, and the leader of the guards drove away in a hurry without hesitation.

Yu Xunmei was lost in thought and had not yet come to her senses.

It was beyond her expectation that Longtan had such a powerful weapon in his hand.

No, if the dragon pond is not cleared, it will become a big disaster in the future.

Thinking of this, Yu Xunmei urged the guards to ride as fast as possible to Nanzhou Prefecture.

"Hurry up! We must report what happened here to General Yu as soon as possible."

They did not dare to stop along the way and only changed horses twice in the county town under the jurisdiction of Nanzhou Prefecture. After rushing hard, they finally arrived at Nanzhou Prefecture five days later.

As soon as they entered the city, people on the street saw the sign on the carriage and began pointing and talking about it.

Today happens to be the Nanzhou Prefecture’s grand fair. The streets are crowded with people and the carriages are moving very slowly.

Yu Xunmei, sitting in the carriage, could hear the gossip of the people from time to time.

"I never thought that a big family like the Yu family would do something so immoral."

"You don't know this. My aunt's eldest sister-in-law's son works as a servant in a wealthy family. I heard him say that the richer the family, the more dirty things there are in the backyard."

"Hey, look, is that carriage that's leaving the house the Yu family's?"

"The flag on the carriage said Yu."

"I wonder who's sitting inside?"

Upon hearing this, the people stretched their necks to look into the carriage.

"I saw it, it seems to be the eldest daughter of the Yu family."

Someone with sharp eyes saw Yu Xunmei sitting inside the car through the corner of the lifted curtain.

Upon hearing this, an old lady immediately lowered her voice and said, "I heard that the eldest daughter of the Yu family had an accident in a dilapidated temple outside the city."

"What happened?"

The people's curiosity was aroused, and they were waiting with shining eyes to hear about the precious family's story.

"Wasn't there a group of beggars living in that dilapidated temple?"

"Yes, later I heard that they were all burned to death in the fire!"

“Isn’t he burned to death? But…” the man pointed at the Yu family’s carriage that was moving slowly.

The aunt spit out the melon seed shells in her mouth and said, "What do you think could happen to a woman thrown into a beggar's den?"

"Ah!?" Everyone exclaimed in disbelief.

"I also heard that General Yu of the military mansion was born to the mistress of the Yu family and was raised in the family. Now he has been adopted by Madam Yu in a legitimate way."

"It's true that if the top beam is crooked, the bottom beam will be crooked!"

"No wonder Madam Yu wanted to replace the original with the new. It turns out that the Yu family has deep roots."

"..."

The people outside the carriage were still talking about it, but Yu Xunmei inside the carriage was very angry, with her hands clenched into fists under her sleeves.

The matter of the ruined temple was brought up again, as if a healed scar was torn open bloodily.

Yu Xunmei's face looked very ugly. She boldly lifted the car curtain and looked out, as if she wanted to remember these people firmly, with a sinister and vicious look in her eyes.

Seeing this, the leader of the guards jumped off the carriage without waiting for her to speak, waving his sword to disperse the gossipers on the roadside.

Being stared at by her venomous gaze, the people would not dare to say anything even if they were given ten times the courage.

Yu Xunmei lowered the car curtain and said, "Hurry up and go back home!"

"Miss, there are too many people on the street and the carriage can't move fast." The guard driving the carriage outside said with embarrassment.

"If they don't leave, run over them!"

"Yes!"

Listening to the people's discussions just now, no one knew what had happened to the Yu family, and now they were in the center of the storm. The guards did not dare to let the carriage run over the people, otherwise, if they were really investigated, he would be the one to take the blame in the end.

Without him saying anything, the leader of the guards asked two of the guards to get off the carriage and lead the way. The coachman whipped the horse and the carriage moved faster.

The carriage stopped in front of Yu's house.

When Yu Xunmei got off the carriage, he saw that the door of the Yu family was closed and two rows of guards were standing outside. It seemed that something really happened at home.

"I'll go in first. You guys pull the carriage to the stable, then go down and rest for a while. I'll tell General Yu what happened, and then I'll call you over."

Seeing her come back, the guard consciously opened the door for her.

The leading guard often followed Yu Shida, and Yu Xunmei also knew him. "What happened at home?"

The guard lowered his head and bowed to her respectfully.

"I am here under the order of the general to guard. No one is allowed to enter or leave. I don't know what's going on at home."

Yu Xunmei did not embarrass him and turned around and walked in.

The housekeeper who heard the noise came out and saw Yu Xunmei, his eyes suddenly lit up.

He walked quickly forward, putting on a flattering smile.

"Oh my! Miss, you are finally back!"

Yu Xunmei raised her eyebrows, curled her lips and asked, "Why are you so flustered?"

The butler looked back and whispered, "Something big has happened!"

Yu Xunmei paused, her eyes fixed on the flattering face of the housekeeper.

The housekeeper took two steps forward and whispered in her ear, telling her the whole story.

"Oh? I didn't expect her to be so bold!"

"Yes, the incident happened to be witnessed by a woman in the clan. Now the head of the family, the old lady, and many elders are interrogating the maidservant beside the lady in the living room."

Yu Xunmei raised her lips in an ambiguous smile, "It's so lively, I want to go and take a look."

Passing through the screen wall, Yu Xunmei saw a bloody person lying in the yard outside the living room.

The clothes she was wearing were stained with blood, and the original color could no longer be seen. One could only vaguely tell that she was a woman dressed as a maid.

Even though she was injured like this, she was still unconsciously mumbling, "What this slave said is the truth. Husband, the lady was wronged!"
