On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Chapter 1614: Fake Identity

Hearing the worry in the abbot's tone, Yan Ruyu spoke in a relaxed tone.

"It's okay. I'm with the prince. Xiang Guang and the others are here too. They're staying at the inn. Our people are all around the yard."

The abbot exhaled lightly: "That's good, your space?"

"The space is fine, I just had a dream."

The abbot was completely relieved: "There is nothing to be afraid of in dreams. Good dreams will come true, and bad dreams are the opposite. There is no need to worry."

Yan Ruyu laughed out loud: "You are right."

"What did you do at the governor's mansion?"

The abbot recounted the conversation he had just had with the governor: "Just tell him that I will build an altar tonight and work on it. During the process, I will use some special tools, which you left behind when you left. Ask him to go to the scene early tomorrow morning and speak in an official capacity to prevent people with ulterior motives from spreading rumors."

Yan Ruyu praised: "Not bad, you are thoughtful, your words are appropriate, and you strike first. You are excellent, Master Abbot."

The abbot chuckled, his heart blossoming: "That's true, we have to grow up too, right? Just follow the prince to save the Sima family, I will work for you at home, you don't have to worry about this."

"The eldest lady is also doing well. The second young master went to pay his respects to her in the morning and evening. Huo Zhongmao is also fine. I have seen him twice. Although he walked a little slowly, there was nothing special about him. His wife's pastry shop has made two new products. She let me taste them when I passed by before.

Song Ping is also really capable. His defense is loose on the outside but tight on the inside. I think he has improved a lot. He is a capable player. "

Yan Ruyu felt warm in her heart. Although she had advanced thinking and insights, the development and growth of the palace and the smooth progress of everything were also the result of everyone's concerted efforts.

No one is holding back, no one is disobedient.

"Then you should remember the merits for everyone, and I will give everyone rewards when I return."

The abbot happily agreed, and after chatting for a few more words, the two hung up.

Yan Ruyu stood in the space, watching the fog gradually dissipate.

Just at this moment, Huo Changhe came to call her, and she consciously exited the space.

"Your Highness," Yan Ruyu opened her eyes, "Can we go now?"

Huo Changhe stroked her hair gently: "I thought you were asleep and wanted you to sleep a little longer."

"It's okay. I've already had a good sleep. Let's go take a look."

The guests were all temporarily staying in the inn, and this matter was what they talked about the most, but almost no one left the inn.

The side door that Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe walked through was where shopping carts came in and out. The boss and Yin Ding had already figured out the basic layout.

The two men went out of the side door and went to the edge of the ravine. The six corpses were also placed here, and a simple fence was built there, probably to prevent any small animals from destroying the corpses.

"This shopkeeper Li is indeed very careful and thoughtful," Yan Ruyu said, "In fact, each of these corpses is seriously damaged, and none of them is intact."

Huo Changhe sighed softly: "I was just going out, who would have thought that I would encounter such a disaster."

It's always a tragedy.

Yan Ruyu went to the six corpses and looked at them more carefully than before. It all started with them, and they themselves died miserably. She hoped to find clues from them.

Just as Sima Shuren had heard, these six corpses were in a more miserable state than the others. Some of them even had their heads crushed and disappeared, and their bodies were incomplete.

The head's face was also scratched and was beyond recognition, and it was impossible to tell what it originally looked like.

Since she couldn't see their faces, she could only see other parts of their bodies. Yan Ruyu switched her eyes and looked through their clothes to see if there were any characteristics on their skin, such as birthmarks or scars.

The next step is to look through the skin and flesh to see if there have been any bone injuries, which is also an important basis for identifying the body.

Including teeth and the butterfly bones between the eyebrows, they are all unique, just like fingerprints.

However, the heads of these corpses are either missing or severely damaged, and their teeth and butterfly bones are no longer of reference value.

After looking at them one by one, Yan Ruyu felt a little confused.

Looking back at Huo Changhe, Huo Changhe was also looking at one of the male corpses.

"What is your opinion, my Lord?"

Huo Changhe came back to his senses and said, "This corpse has no head, but its hands are still intact. Look, the calluses on its hands."

"I have seen people from the opera troupe. Some of them are great martial artists with good skills. Their hands have calluses from practicing martial arts."

“But I feel like this person’s callouses don’t look like what a troupe member should have.”

Yan Ruyu said, "There is another kind of person who also has calluses, the zither player."

Huo Changhe nodded: "Indeed, but I always feel that this person's hands are a bit rough."

"My Lord and I agree. It is also possible that these people are not from the troupe at all."

Huo Changhe's eyes flickered slightly. "Yes, the people in the opera troupe said so themselves. No one has verified it. They haven't even checked into the inn, and no one has seen their stuff."

"When you go out, you give yourself an identity. Besides, the prince should have invited a troupe to perform in the hall before. Are these few people enough for the hall?"

Huo Changhe looked at the corpse on the ground and said, "Obviously not. Four men and two women are not enough."

"Also, Master Sima said that there were two extremely ugly men. Even if there were clowns in the troupe, they were mostly ugly in makeup or short in stature. If they were really big stars, how many of them would be ugly? No matter if they were men or women, they had to be beauties."

The drama troupe is just like the current entertainment industry. Among those who are truly famous and popular, which one is ugly?

Yan Ruyu is not a fan, but she also knows the most basic principles and rules.

Huo Changhe frowned slightly and fell silent.

No head, no name, no surname, and even the initial identity is most likely fake.

There is absolutely no clue as to who these six people are.

Where do I start to investigate this?

It just so happened that these six people were the cause of this incident.

Yan Ruyu said, "Let's go back first and wait and see how things develop. If not, we can explore the valley at night to see what's going on."

Huo Changhe looked towards the valley and said, "Yu'er, tell me, is it possible that someone deliberately created this incident to make passers-by afraid to enter the valley because they have something shameful to do in the valley?"

"It's like a ghost village," Yan Ruyu said, "We've experienced this kind of thing on the way here. Some villages have secrets and have been abandoned for a long time. Rumors that they are ghost villages and haunted places make people even more afraid to go."

"That's the reason," Huo Changhe said, and he felt it was more and more possible. "So, we must explore the valley at night."

The two decided to return to the inn.

As soon as I arrived at the gate of the courtyard, I saw Li Zaibiao and Xiang Guang coming from another direction.

The two of them were talking in low voices, and it was unclear what they were talking about.

Seeing Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe, the two of them hurried over.

Originally, Xiang Guang and Li Zaibiao were not in the same team, but in the same battalion, so they were familiar with each other. They were very happy to meet here.

"What are you talking about?" Huo Changhe asked.
