Chapter 21: Demon Suppression Division

On the second day after returning to the governor's house, the daughter of the governor fainted in bed because of her mother's anger. This matter was slightly publicized by some interested people, and almost everyone in the house knew about it.

If Governor Jade hadn't been so angry and issued a hush-hush order, this matter would have been spread out and made a fuss.

Yu Linlang, the culprit, has no psychological burden. She eats, drinks and sleeps when she has time. When she is free, she reads the precious books collected by Yu Pianpian.

It's nothing more than some "The Analects of Confucius" and "The Classic of Filial Piety", or "Nv Jie" and "Nei Principles" and the like, which are boring to watch.

Yu Linlang found a fairly good travel journal from the bookshelf and flipped through it. After a while, she felt sleepy.

Jiujin walked in quietly with clean clothes in his arms. He saw his girl lying on the beauty's couch by the window, and quickly picked up a quilt to cover her.

Just as he tucked his girl into bed, the sound of Mrs. Hu's hurried footsteps could be heard outside the courtyard.

"Miss Qiuping and Miss Linlang are in the house, right? Madam asked you two to go to the main hall quickly if you have anything to ask."

Yu Linlang opened her eyes in a daze, "Why are you asking again?"

Yu Qiuping's soft voice came from outside the door, "Mommy, don't panic, what happened again?"

"Miss, please go over first. I'll call Miss Linlang."

Yu Linlang came out of the east wing, stared at her and raised her eyebrows, "Looking at you sweating profusely and panicking, could it be that someone else died in the house?"

Aunt Hu opened her mouth wide and was so shocked that she could not speak.

There was indeed another death in the house, and it was none other than Niu Erji who was questioned repeatedly yesterday.

When Yu Linlang rushed to the main hall with Jiujin, not only was the old lady with white hair sitting in the middle, but all the aunts and ladies were also present.

Seeing her walking in, a pair of eyes looked at her.

This person is the direct daughter of the most upright person in the governor's office, and everyone knows it.

But now the position beside Madam has been taken away by a fake daughter.

This fake daughter not only occupied the magpie's nest, but also openly took everything from her.

Favor, status, fame, all the things that a legitimate daughter should have were completely taken away by this fake daughter.

It's really heartbreaking to think about it. No one at this age who experiences this kind of thing can be as calm as the person in front of me.

But this daughter-in-law remained unmoved at all, as if she was an outsider, looking coldly and squinting at others.

Yu Linlang stepped forward and bowed to the old lady and madam in a proper manner.

When Huo saw this girl, she remembered that she was so angry that she fainted on the spot. She really didn't want to look at her!
Putting down the tea cup angrily, Huo turned her head to the side.

The old lady's face was very kind. She exchanged casual greetings with Yu Linlang, then pointed to the seat and asked her to sit down beside her.

"Two murder cases have occurred in the house in the past two days, and the master is also very troubled by this."

"Although only a couple of servants died, after all, the incident occurred in our governor's mansion, and it caused a lot of criticism for no reason."

"Yes, mother, I don't know how the outside world will spread the news about our house. I have always felt that the house is not peaceful these past two days. When walking on the corridor, I sometimes feel eerie and scary." The beautiful aunt who spoke, her hands Ten years of beauty has a delicate face, and her voice is as delicate and sweet as an oriole coming out of the valley.

As soon as the aunt opened her mouth, Mr. Huo turned his head and glared at her, "Ms. Cui, what's so scary about you staying in the house and never leaving the door? Don't stir up trouble here and talk nonsense."

"Okay." The old lady frowned and said, "You guys should stay at home in your own house for the past two days. Don't go out and walk around at will."

"Hey, mother, if we continue to investigate this case, will we miss your birthday banquet in half a month?" Aunt Cui said in a delicate voice, "I don't know how the investigation went in the servants' room. "Could it be true, as those people outside said, that the demon that has disappeared for many years is out again?"

The old lady frowned and slammed her palm on the table, "Such unfounded words are not allowed to be spoken again in the future."

While he was talking, a servant hurried into the hall and said in a panic, "Old lady, Master and Mr. Lu have all gone to the main entrance. They said... people from the Demon Suppression Department have arrived."

"Ah?" Everyone in the main hall looked at each other.

This case actually alarmed the legendary Demon Suppression Department?

Aunt Cui covered her mouth with a handkerchief, "Could it really be a demon causing trouble? What should we do?"

Huo glared at her coldly, turned to the old lady and said, "Mother, what should we do next? If the matter gets serious, it will not bring good reputation to our governor's office."

The old lady stood up with the help of the maid and said, "Go out and take a look."

The female relatives were all curious about the methods used by the Demon Suppression Division to subjugate demons. After hearing this, they hurriedly followed the old lady and walked out together.

Yu Linlang and Jiu Jin looked at each other.

"Sister Linlang, let's go and go out with the old lady and the others to have a look." Yu Pianpian smiled at her, "Sister, I have always lived in the small village in Fucun, and I must have never seen such a battle. In the past two days, the house has been A lot of things have happened, sister, don't be afraid, father will try his best to protect us."

Yu Linlang glanced at her, nodded slightly and walked out without saying a word.

Yu Pianpian frowned.

His personal maid, Qing Ju, followed him over and whispered, "Girl, why are you telling her this? Others won't think of you well. You have a dead face, as if someone owes her thousands of dollars." two."

"Don't talk nonsense." Yu Pianpian scolded and glanced at her girl, "Miss Linlang, is this what a girl like you can say? You don't know etiquette, how can I teach you normally?"

Qingju pursed her lips, glanced at Yu Linlang's back, and whispered, "I know my mistake."

Yu Linlang seemed not to have heard the master and servant singing the double act behind them at all, and followed the old lady and her group directly to the main entrance.

The two parties met face to face in the Sichuan-shaped corridor.

The female relatives carefully looked at the strange men and women beside the master.

Both of them were around 20 years old. They were dressed in blue brocade tunics, wearing high hats, and had cold faces.

The woman was holding a rattan cage in her hand and said expressionlessly, "Prince Jade, please leave all the rest. Where is the body now?"

The old lady and others looked at each other.

Feeling that the female relatives in your family are just idle people watching the excitement?

A hint of embarrassment appeared on Jade Governor's face, and he bowed to the old lady and explained, "Mother, these are Chen Buyu and Wei Ling from the Demon Suppression Department."

Huo frowned, "Isn't this case handled by Mr. Lu from the Prison Department?"

"Now the three dissection cases are fully handed over to our Demon Suppression Department, and the rest only need to cooperate."

Wei Ling spoke straightforwardly, and her expression was completely indifferent, making everyone present feel uncomfortable looking at her.

Governor Jade smiled and smoothed things over, "Two adults are here to take over the case with an official letter issued by the cabinet. Okay, don't say anything else. You go back to the main hall first. You will need to ask questions one by one later."
