It is impossible to punish adults

Chapter 367 High Threshold

Mu Liuyun looked at the location of the study, then at the location of the new house, and frowned.

"My lord, the new house is over there, and the study is over here." Mu Liuyun pointed to the closed door of the new house, "The distance between the two sides is not too far. If there are people in the new house now, just like our voices , the people in the room should be able to hear it, right?"

"Unless you are a deaf person, you must be able to hear it." Yuan Mu nodded. The distance from the bedroom to the study is only half a circle around the small pool. Of course, there is no reason why the noise in the yard cannot be heard.

"So if that Liao Wenbai was dragged to the study by someone, and Shaoyao was guarding in the new room, hoping to wait for her young lady to come back, it is impossible not to hear the groom's official coming to the yard. Didn’t she scare her half to death when she got there? But she didn’t mention a word to us, and I think it’s probably because she didn’t hear anyone coming, especially Liao Wenbai.” Mu Liuyun speculated.

"In theory, it is true." Yuan Mu nodded and added for her, "But if you don't speak, just walk quietly, you may not be able to hear clearly from the other side of the bedroom."

"In this way, Liao Wenbo should have walked into the study well by himself. He walked very well along the way, without staggering, and he didn't need someone to support him or put him on his shoulders. I'm afraid I won't be able to walk down that path, but if you walk on the corridor, you can hear the footsteps in the bedroom if you get close."

Mu Liuyun looked down at the place under the porch where they were standing now. The Liao family's house was elegantly built, and the ground under the porch was also paved with templates. When shoes stepped on it, there would occasionally be a creaking sound like wooden boards. There will also be some empty footsteps, which are naturally much more obvious than the sound of the stone pavement.

"That is to say, unless on the night of the Liao family's wedding, their family came to a master of lightness kungfu who could carry a person on their backs and still fly on the grass, otherwise Liao Wenbo should have come in directly from there by himself, directly into the study... ..." Mu Liuyun pointed to the moon gate in the side courtyard, then looked back at the study door behind him, reached out and knocked on the door panel, "This door panel is quite thick and heavy, and the sound should be quite loud when it is opened and closed. You can definitely hear it in there.

So that night, either Liao Wenbai was followed by someone after he entered the study, but he knew the person who came, so he didn't take precautions, or there was a possibility that someone was already hiding in the study before Liao Wenbai entered the study.

It is not known whether it was premeditated to hide in, or it was a coincidence for some reason. "

"Tuiguan, why do you think that when Liao Wenbai went to the study, Tang Wanxin's dowry maid must still be guarding in the new room?" Yuan Yi just listened for a long time, and became more and more curious.

"Well, after listening to Mr. Wang and Master Liao and his wife about what happened that day, at the very beginning of that day, there were a lot of guests. Liao Wenbai, as the groom's official, would inevitably have to entertain in front of him, so it was difficult to get away early. Later, the guests left Some left, and the guests hadn't enjoyed themselves enough. At this time, no matter where Liao Wenbai went, he was easily noticed.

On the contrary, after drinking for three rounds, some of the guests were about to leave, and some of them were already slightly drunk. During the conversation, they might only know that the groom and the officials had just come to toast, and where they went afterward. I got it, I saw that I might not be able to remember to ask after sobering up the next day, so naturally I couldn't ask.

Then if the dowry maid Shao Yao also returned to the servant girl's room after the guests were gone, then Liao Wenbai returned to his courtyard at this time, and the servants at home should start cleaning and tidying up. Rest, if you are still wandering outside on the wedding night, or going to the study, it is easy to be seen by the servants and persuade him to go back.

So I guess, Liao Wenbai should also be slightly drunk, and wandered to the study room alone when the guests were chaotic. Nor did anyone notice when he left the guests to go to his study. "

Yuan Yi felt that this was the same thing, but he shook his head in confusion: "What do you think? On the wedding day, the big day, the wedding night in the bridal chamber, I passed by the new house without even going in to take a look. Went to the study?"

Mu Liuyun spread his hands together: "I don't know about this, and it's not easy to understand."

After saying this, Sun De took the key and ran back again, panting heavily to help them unlock the big lock on the study door.

The door is indeed as thick as Mu Liuyun expected. Not only does it take a little effort to push the door open, but it also makes a creaking sound when it is opened. Not to mention the bedroom, even outside the moon door. The same can be heard clearly.

The door of this study room is taller, bigger and thicker than ordinary doors, but there is actually a high threshold underneath. Yuan Mu looked down, raised his legs and stepped over, then turned around and stretched out his hands to Mu Liuyun, supporting him. She also crossed that high threshold.

"A study room, why do you have such a high threshold!" Mu Liuyun felt puzzled, neither Master Liao nor Liao Wenbai, whom he had seen in the mortuary, were tall and mighty, taller than himself. There is a limit to being taller, and to build such a high threshold with such a height, isn't it that you can't live with yourself.

"It seems that the Liao family's father and son still have a strong desire to win the palace examination, and this Liao Jingxian is still quite unwilling and resentful about resigning from office and returning to his hometown." Seeing that Mu Liuyun was puzzled, Yuan Mu told her Said, "The higher the threshold, what it means, I don't think I need to repeat it, you know very well, the higher the family status, the higher the threshold naturally.

The Liao family is a school of Confucianism who is calm and indifferent to the outside world. They are high-spirited and easy-going, and Ying Zhong Baixue's style. From ancient times to the present, saints are often extremely intelligent, but not ambitious, so even He's not a saint, he just wants to see the good and think like others, so he always hides the vulgar things in it. "

When he said this, Mu Liuyun understood, didn't he just hope that Liao Wenbai High School would get a good official position, and the Liao family would become a wealthy family from then on, but he was afraid that people would find out this little thought!Good guy, I didn't dare to repair the things at the gate, so I hid them in the study!
But not to mention, the establishment of the study in this way is a bit of a win-win.

Mu Liuyun couldn't help but feel a little curious about this poor student who had high hopes, looked around, and found that there was no collection of books on the first floor, and there were a lot of calligraphy and paintings hanging on the surrounding walls. They should all be written by the same person, so you don't need to think about it to know that it must be Liao Wenbai himself.

So she walked over quickly, intending to appreciate the masterpieces of this talented man during his lifetime.
