Chapter 1828 She Did Nothing Wrong
Yan Ruyu secretly swore that once she caught Guiyan, she would kill him with her own hands!
No matter how sad it is, things have to be dealt with.
Huo Changhe asked her to get on the carriage and took care of the rest of the matters himself.
Yan Ruyu sat in the carriage with her eyes slightly closed, listening to the low noises outside, and everyone tried their best not to make any noise.
This kind of silence is even more uncomfortable.
It was past noon when the work was done. Governor Cao also sent people over, and the city affairs began to be handled according to Yan Ruyu's instructions.
Yan Ruyu had painted the portrait of Ghost Eye before and there was still space, so she gave the portrait to Governor Cao, who ordered his painters to repaint it and post it all over the city.
The carriage moved, and Huo Changhe came up with a few paper packages containing steaming buns and some other food.
Yan Ruyu had no appetite and didn't want to eat.
"You still have to eat something. You're broken and can't do anything."
Huo Changhe advised softly: "After dinner, I will accompany you to find Miaomiao."
Yan Ruyu nodded and reluctantly ate two.
When Sun Chuchu saw Yan Ruyu coming, he was about to ask about the affairs of Xicheng District, but was stopped by Huo Changhe's eyes.
"Is Miaomiao here?"
"Yes, he was in the yard just now. I'll go call him."
Miao Miao came quickly, and when she saw Yan Ruyu, she quickly said, "Princess, the medicine has been almost prepared, I just need to do two more tests."
Yan Ruyu nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, hurry up."
Miaomiao saw her serious expression and asked, "What happened?"
Sun Chuchu also understood: "Could it be that the matter in Xicheng..."
Yan Ruyu had no way to escape, so she nodded and said to Miao Miao: "That's right, seven people died in Xicheng, and they all died in this way."
Sun Chuchu's eyes widened angrily: "Seven...seven?"
Yan Ruyu nodded: "If we don't find him until he finds a solution, more people will die."
Miaomiao's expression also changed: "I'll try again right away."
He turned and went back to the backyard.
Sun Chuchu was also shocked: "Then, how can I help?"
"Not for now," Huo Changhe said, "Just pay attention to the surrounding situation here and take good care of Miaomiao."
Sun Chuchu nodded repeatedly.
Just as he was saying this, Song Ping came running in with an extremely ugly look on his face.
"Prince, Princess, over in East City..."
Yan Ruyu frowned: "Another incident? The same as in West City?"
Song Ping nodded with difficulty.
Yan Ruyu's face was gloomy. Huo Changhe gritted his teeth and said, "Pass the order down. Send out half of the guards in the palace to search the whole city. If there are any suspicious people, arrest them immediately."
"Yes."
Yan Ruyu took a breath and said, "Don't forget to ask the abbot for the mask."
"Yes."
There is a batch of masks in the abbot space warehouse. They were used by a drug trafficking gang as a cover for a circus. They were insidious and cunning, with many changing identities, and it took a long time to catch them.
Finally, someone came to their unit for help.
Yan Ruyu and another colleague took action, caught the gang, and seized their belongings, including some performance props.
Masks are one of them.
Although it is not steel, it is also very hard. The bugs with ghost eyes can penetrate bones, so they must be hard as well. However, if a hard mask is put on it, it is likely to reduce the damage.
Yan Ruyu didn't want to see any more casualties.
She spoke to the abbot, who also knew about this. He followed her instructions and found the masks and waited for everyone to take them.
After leaving the shop, Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe went to East City.
Seven people also died here, the same as in West City.
It's busy here and the lights are already coming on.
The two returned to the palace, and when they arrived at the door, they saw the eldest lady and Huo Changxu waiting at the door.
Seeing the two of them coming back, he hurried to meet them.
"Yu'er," the eldest lady grabbed her, "Are you okay?"
"Hurry, go home, we'll be waiting for you to have dinner."
The eldest lady held Yan Ruyu's cold hand and kept chattering to divert her attention.
Linlang, Luhu and the boss also came.
The abbot was also among them.
Everyone looked at Yan Ruyu with concern.
The abbot frowned, and stepped forward, saying, "Princess, there is no need to do this. No one else needs to do this either."
"Everyone is saddened by the injustice of the people, and no one wants to see this happen."
"But this is not the prince's fault, nor is it the princess' fault. It's the fault of that cruel murderer!"
"Everyone doesn't need to gather around the princess, show concern and comfort her. Why should she endure all this? Do you want to blame her for all this?"
Everyone was stunned.
The eldest lady also blushed a little: "Master, I don't mean that. I am worried that Yu'er will blame herself..."
The abbot smiled faintly: "I naturally understand what the lady means, but there is no need to worry. The princess is smart and persevering. She will find a way to catch the murderer."
"This is because she is kind, righteous and responsible, but this is not her responsibility."
Yan Ruyu's heart was boiling with anger. All the bitterness, self-blame and regret she had felt disappeared along with these words.
The abbot nodded to her and said, "Princess, it's been a busy day, it's time to eat. Have a good rest and take good care of your body so that you can do more things."
"What the abbot said is absolutely right."
Yan Ruyu followed the eldest lady to the courtyard for dinner, and Huo Changhe felt that her mood had obviously improved a lot.
He quietly bowed to the abbot.
I had felt a blockage in my chest before and didn’t feel hungry, but now after being enlightened by the abbot’s words, my stomach, which had not eaten much all day, was rumbling with hunger.
After dinner, Yan Ruyu went to find the abbot, and saw him waiting for her in the pavilion near the Moon Gate.
"Come on," the abbot waved at her, "Are you feeling better?"
The abbot took out a box of Dove and gave it to her: "Try this, I found it in the warehouse."
Yan Ruyu peeled one and put it in her mouth: "I didn't realize you were so good at talking."
"Of course. I was planning to take the psychologist qualification exam. Now that you are a great monk, we should be able to influence each other."
Yan Ruyu laughed dumbly: "You are right."
The abbot thought for a moment and said, "Ruyu, I have an idea. Let me tell you if it works."
"You said."
"Didn't the prince bring back something called... Yao Xiaochen when he returned from Shencheng this time? He specializes in studying poisons."
Yan Ruyu remembered this person. Because he was injured, he stayed in the palace and did not go to the manor or the estate.
However, Yan Ruyu was not familiar with him and never asked about it.
Now, after hearing what the abbot said, I also remembered: "Yes, there is this person, what happened?"
The abbot stroked his beard and said, "Look, why were there no pests when we were growing crops and fruit trees?"
"They used pesticides, right?" Yan Ruyu said. "Don't they say that things that haven't been sprayed with pesticides are green and organic?"
The abbot rolled his eyes and said, "You can't say that. Pesticides are not all bad. What if there are insects? Can we catch them by hand in an orchard of a hundred acres of land? Are we going back to primitive society?"
"Let's not talk about this. It's off topic." The abbot waved his hand. "What I mean is, can Yao Xiaochen be a pesticide expert?"
