The Imperial Concubine Just Wants To Be a Salted Fish Every Day

Hearing Xiao Lingfeng's words, Yu Sanniang and Yun Kexin did not feel lucky at all.

They even felt a little regretful.

If they could go back to the stockade with the Zhou family at that time, even if they would all die, at least they would be able to die together with their family and friends. It would not be like now, all their relatives and friends are dead, and they don't know how to live alone. Yu Man's heart was full of despair and grief.

Li Qingyan asked, "What's the name of those people who claim to be deserters? What do they look like?"

Yu Sanniang said while trying to remember.

"It has always been the owner of the village who has been receiving them. I have never had contact with them. I only know that there are more than ten people in total. The leader of them looks very young, in his early twenties. He looks very good-looking and has a little ...a bit like a girl, I'm not saying he chirps, I mean his facial features are very delicate, his skin is very white..."

Xiao Lingfeng couldn't help but interrupt: "Is his name Yu Jiu?"

Yu Sanniang shook her head: "No, he said his name was Chen Qi."

Xiao Lingfeng still did not give up.

He took a portrait from his bosom,

"Does that person look like this?"

After unfolding the portrait, he handed it to Yu Sanniang and Yun Kexin, motioning them to take a closer look.

As soon as they saw the man in the portrait, they immediately noticed an obvious change in their expressions.

Yun Kexin seemed to want to say something, but she couldn't say it, so she could only make an anxious sound.

Yu Sanniang said without hesitation: "It's him! He brought a group of people to our stockade!"

Xiao Lingfeng looked at Li Qingyan.

Li Qingyan had never seen Yu Jiu before, so he didn't know what Yu Jiu had done, but he knew that Xiao Lingfeng was here to arrest the traitor this time, a man who could let Xiao Lingfeng carry the portrait with him, except for the traitor he wanted to arrest this time. , there should be no one else.

In other words, the group of people who pretended to be deserters and entered Dafu Village were actually a group of wanted traitors.

Could it be that the truth is as Xiao Lingfeng guessed, because someone in Dafu Village accidentally discovered the true identities of the group of rebels. In order to hide their whereabouts, the rebels slaughtered the entire stockade and caused eternal trouble?

The reason could make sense, but Li Qingyan was always a little uneasy in her heart.

He vaguely felt that this matter was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

Xiao Lingfeng asked a lot of questions.

But Yu Sanniang and Yun Kexin knew very little, and there weren't many clues they could provide.

They waited for two days and one night, and finally the officials from the government came.

Not only did Zuzuo come, but even the local county magistrate came in person, and he also brought more than a dozen arresters along the way.

The county magistrate rushed for a day and was too tired, but he didn't dare to rest. As soon as he saw Li Qingyan and Xiao Lingfeng, he hurried over to bow his hands and bowed with respect.

Li Qingyan asked Wu Zuo to go to the autopsy quickly.

The county government has a total of two works, all of which have been brought.

They faced 120 charred corpses, and the work pressure was very high.

Fortunately, there are still the fast catchers to help out, helping them relieve a lot of pressure, so that the two of them are not exhausted on the spot.

After inspection, the method of death of each corpse is basically the same.

This is basically the same as Xiao Lingfeng's previous guess.

Li Qingyan calmly analyzed.

"I remember that many people in the stockade have dogs.

Even if the family is asleep, the dogs will definitely bark when they hear outsiders breaking in.

This will surely shock the people around you.

No matter how fierce the group of rebels were, there were only a dozen of them.

And there are more than 100 people in the stockade.

The huge gap in the number of people should not be so easily killed by the group of traitors, unless..."

Xiao Lingfeng took his words.

"No matter how loud the dog barks, unless they've been drugged and put into a coma."

Li Qingyan looked at the two Zuzuo who were still busy and asked in a deep voice.

"Can it be found out that these deceased were drugged before they died?"

The two men shook their heads at the same time, indicating that they could not find it.

Ecstasy is not like poison. Poison will have obvious residues. Apart from making people drowsy, the drug has no other effect, and it is difficult to detect it.

After all the charred corpses were examined, Li Qingyan personally took the lead in digging the pits so that the corpses could be buried in the ground.

It was too late to make temporary coffins. They could only wrap the bodies with straw mats and bury them one by one.

Yun Kexin and Yu Sanniang knelt by the grave.

Yu Sanniang burst into tears and burst into tears.

Yun Kexin just stared blankly at the scorched corpses. It was as if she had been punched hard, her brain was buzzing, and there was a very unreal feeling.

She hoped it was all fake.

She wished she was just having a nightmare.

When she woke up from the dream, she could see her mother again, as well as those elders and friends in the stockade.

But the cry of Yu Sanniang beside her kept reminding her.

This is real.

Their home is gone.

Their relatives and friends are gone.

Overnight, they lost everything, only the black and twisted scorched corpses in front of them.

When Li Qingyan was about to carry Zhou's body for burial, Yun Kexin suddenly came back to his senses.

She jumped up and hugged Zhou's body, she refused to let go of life or death, tears were falling down, and she couldn't help crying.

She no longer has a father, and her mother is her last relative in this world.

But now even this last relative is gone.

A great grief swept over her, swallowing her sanity.

She doesn't want to be separated from her mother, she wants to accompany her mother, forever!

Li Qingyan hugged her gently and comforted her over and over again.

Even if her mother is gone, she still has him.

He will become her family, stay by her side forever, take care of her, protect her, become the pillar of her life, and prop up a new world for her.

Yun Kexin's mood gradually calmed down.

Her fingers also slowly loosened.

Li Qingyan gave the followers a look.

The entourage understood and immediately wrapped Zhou's body with a straw mat, carefully lifted it up, and put it into the pit.

This pit was dug by Li Qingyan himself, and it was dug very deep, so as to ensure that the beasts in the mountains would not dig out the remains.

The entourage began to bulldoze into the pit.

Seeing that the Zhou family was gradually buried in the soil, Yun Kexin thought that he would never see his mother again in this life, and the grief in his heart became more and more intense.

She wants those people to stop, she wants to see her mother again.

She wanted to call out her mother.

Zhou's greatest wish during his lifetime was to hear his daughter call her mother in person.

She didn't hear it during her lifetime, at least... at least she could get her wish after death.

Yun Kexin opened her mouth and tried her best to shout.

However, it can only shout difficult monosyllables.

"Ah... ah ah!"

Li Qingyan hugged her tighter and comforted her silently.

Yun Kexin's vision was completely blurred by tears, and she couldn't see anything clearly.

But she's still trying again and again.

I don't know how many times I tried, she finally shouted out that long suppressed cry.

"mother!"
