Chapter 69
Yuhui made up her mind to visit Zhou Changmin in Tianlao, but it was very difficult to think about it.Firstly, Zhou Changmin is nominally a felon waiting to be executed, and her relatives have been detained and exiled. Except for officials related to the case or old colleagues and friends, no one else has the chance to get close to her; Being detained in the Sky Prison is just a bitter plan. It is estimated that her life, treatment and mental state in the prison must be kept strictly confidential. There may even be a double in the prison, and she herself has long been hiding in a safe place.

Yu Hui remembered that among the group of friends introduced to her by the second sister yesterday, there was a lady named Liang Ying. It seemed that there was a relative in the family who was in charge of guarding the dungeon. Will avoid detours.

In the afternoon, during the art of war training class, Yuhui took the initiative to make friends with that Miss Liang, and talked about Zhou Changmin in a few words.

"Sister Liang, I heard that General Zhou has been detained in the sky prison and will be executed soon. Is this true?" Yu Hui pretended to be innocent and said, "I heard rumors among the people that General Zhou was framed. It is possible to rehabilitate and avoid the death penalty."

Liang Ying said in a low voice: "Sister Hui'er, I have a concubine elder sister who is on duty in the prison. I heard that General Zhou is indeed locked in the death row, and no one else is allowed to visit him at all. Counting the days, there are still ten days left. It would be a pity if there were really grievances."

Yuhui heard that Liang Ying felt so much sympathy for Zhou Changmin, so she stopped hiding her inclination, and asked further: "Why aren't others allowed to visit? General Zhou always has some friends in court, and no one helped her run around." What about revenge?"

Liang Ying also didn't understand: "When General Zhou was just convicted, there were indeed a group of officials in the court pleading for her. Unfortunately, the evidence is overwhelming. No matter how merciful the Holy Majesty is, it is impossible to grant mercy outside the law. In the end, she pardoned her whole family and exiled her instead of exterminating her family. Cutting, I think it is already the biggest concession."

"Since the crime has been convicted and execution is imminent, why not let General Zhou see his relatives and friends again before parting?" Yuhui sighed with ulterior motives.

Liang Ying patted her forehead and said: "If you don't ask, I almost forgot. The Holy Majesty has authorized General Zhou's former colleagues and friends to visit her in the prison one day before the questioning. As for her relatives, except for the family of the Yao family , other immediate family members have been exiled to other places, and her husband and daughter are still missing, so they must not be seen."

This news gives Yuhui a glimmer of hope.No matter who is in prison now, at least the day when General Zhou's colleagues and old friends go to visit, they should be able to see her in person.Yuhui thought, if she could join the visiting team, maybe she could get what she wanted.

After returning from the official school, Yu Hui happily went straight to Su Mian's residence with a stack of books in her arms.Walking on the road, she suddenly thought that General Zhou's husband should be Yao Shi's uncle, maybe Yao Shi can know what relatives and friends General Zhou has, and if he sees him, he can ask him by the way.

As expected, Mrs. Yao was indeed in Su Mian's room, and the two chatted like yesterday.When Yao shi saw Yu Hui, she was about to get up and leave, but Yu Hui stopped him and asked politely: "Brother-in-law, the day before General Zhou asked her to kill her, His Majesty authorized her relatives and friends to visit. I wonder if Yao's family will go?"

Yao Zimeng was stunned for a moment, and replied faintly: "The uncle of the attendant (a modest name for married men in this world) is General Zhou's husband. Originally, the Yao family and General Zhou were related by marriage. But the uncle and his daughter absconded in fear of crime. The Holy One was furious. Grandma I had no choice but to take the blame and give up the position of Patriarch. After my mother became the Patriarch, she immediately announced that she would sever her sister and brother relationship with Zhou Yao, and the servant felt that the Yao family might not go to visit people to prove their innocence."

"Then brother-in-law, does General Zhou have any relatives and friends in Beijing?"

Yao Zimeng shook his head.He has never been taken seriously in the Yao family, and Zhou Yao was a very beloved son-in-law before he got married. The two of them seldom interacted with each other, and they almost only met at the family banquets during the festivals. They usually didn't talk. How did you say that.He realized that he was so ignorant that he couldn't help Yuhui, he felt deeply guilty, and lowered his head at a loss.

Yuhui didn't dare to embarrass this sensitive and timid brother-in-law, she casually said a few polite words, and sent him out of Su Mian's room.

While flipping through the medical books that Yuhui brought back, Su Mian asked intentionally or unintentionally, "Little sister, why did you start asking about General Zhou? Do you want to visit her and secretly tell her the whereabouts of her husband and daughter?" If the general is really a chess piece with ulterior motives, she may already know where her husband and daughter are now. If not, you will be at a loss if you tell her, because the walls have ears, and someone who cares may listen to it and cause trouble for yourself."

There was no one else in the room, and Yuhui didn't hide anything, she told Su Mian her real intention to find General Zhou.

"It turns out that my younger sister is interested in the wonderful book "Controversy"? Is she going to fight in the battlefield in the future to make contributions?"

Yuhui still doesn't dare to mention the matter of training Ali to be a marshal, so she said vaguely: "Yes, my mother also agrees that I study martial arts, so that if there is a war, I can also defend my family and the country."

"Since my little sister has this ambition, do you need my help?"

Yuhui smiled and said, "The first thing I need to do is detoxify and take care of my body. Actually, I have already taken over some of the family's business, and I may try to manage more in the future. I also plan to have a career, right? I hope You can make the most of your strengths, not only manage your business well, but also take care of mine for me, okay? When I have a lot of money to control, I will be less constrained by others. No matter whether I have to march or fight in the future, I will always do it With financial security, you can do whatever you want.”

Su Mian also laughed and said, "It turns out that my younger sister has already made up her mind and wanted to trick me into helping you with the business. I thought that if I entered the Yu Mansion, I would be able to enjoy my fortune and wait for my death."

"Brother is so capable, how can he be buried in the boudoir? Don't you like to study embroidery and cooking with the men in this yard every day?" Yuhui joked, "Why do I think you were talking about embroidery flowers and plants with Yao just now? Looks and the like, is it very difficult to perfunctory?"

Su Mian said comfortingly, "My little sister understands me best. It seems that I am not born to enjoy life. I deserve to work hard day and night to make a living for others."

Yuhui walked up to Su Mian's side and said coquettishly, "Brother, I don't want you to be busy, otherwise, you can train more apprentices, and when you pass on the skills of doing business, you will be able to relax more What? There is also the matter of opening a medical clinic. I mentioned it to my mother that day, and she agreed with it very much, and she was willing to let me be your guarantor."

"Little sister, you are so kind to me." Su Mian couldn't help but hugged Yuhui into her arms, and said affectionately, "I will definitely strive for a speedy recovery and help you solve your problems."

"Well, I believe I have such ability. Among the medical books I brought back, which one do I think is useful? I will borrow the whole set tomorrow. Although I can only borrow ten volumes at a time, I met a friend in the official school. I can help copy books, as long as I like it, I can copy it back and keep it for reading."

"Little sister, you are really thoughtful." Su Mian flipped through the books, picked out the ones that were most helpful for detoxification, took a pen and paper, wrote down the titles of the books and volumes, and gave them to Yu Hui.

Yuhui put away the note, and seeing that Su Mian's face was still pale, she asked with concern, "Brother, did you encounter any difficulties in detoxification, and did you lack any medicinal materials? I heard from my mother this morning that the Sanjue old man will be able to return tomorrow. Can she check it for you again? And how did you get poisoned?"

Su Mian was indeed suffering from abdominal cramps at this time. He took a few deep breaths and said slowly, "The Sanjue old man is very good at poisoning. It is of course good that she can come back and help me detoxify. But I think it is possible. The poisoning place is precisely in Sanjue old man's house."

Yuhui was startled when she heard the words: "How could this be? Mother told me that old man Sanjue has a deep friendship with Yu's family, so he would never do such a bad thing."

Su Mian smiled bitterly and said, "Old Sanjue may not be able to do it herself, but there are more than a dozen disciples in her house and so many servants, and spies might get in among them. The villain deliberately chooses to commit crimes on her territory, and will Could it be that you just want to stir up the Yu family's suspicion of the old man Sanjue? And if it's not from the family of the old man Sanjue, how do you know that she has something to go out that day and has no time to take care of me?"

Yuhui frowned and said, "Brother, how many disciples does Sanjue have? I asked my mother to send someone to investigate carefully, maybe I can find clues. Those who went to the mass grave to track down the gangsters found nothing, presumably the gangsters had heard the news in advance and concealed it." Can't escape. Are Qingfeng Mingyue and Qingfeng Mingyue reliable? Do you want to replace them?"

Su Mian replied: "Old Sanjue has only one student who entered the house, that is the middle-aged woman in black clothes you saw that day, her name is Gao Chang, it is said that she came from a family of officials and officials. The rest of the male disciples are mostly abandoned by the old man Sanjue. Son, although they also have the guidance of the old man Sanjue, and respectfully call her a master, but their status is relatively low, they are not counted as house disciples, and they are only serving as servants. Previously, the old man Sanjue said that it was an exception to accept me as a house disciple. Gao Chang once spoke out to obstruct me, so I have not officially become a teacher. However, the old man Sanjue has always felt that men are limited in ability, and it is difficult to inherit her mantle. It is a pity that most of the outcasts are boys, and she is not satisfied with the selection. Yes. So for so many years, there is only Gao Chang as an in-house disciple."
