Attack Jade (攻玉) - Chapter 136
[Chapter 102: “Three More in One” Tonight she and…]
Lin Chengyou quickly glanced around, suddenly seemed to see something, turned his head to find Kuan Nu, waved at him, waited for Kuan Nu to arrive in front of him, whispered a few words, Kuan Nu nodded, and mixed into the crowd with more than a dozen guards.
Yan Jizhi whispered to Lin Chengyou for a while, turned around and pointed to the two servants in their regular clothes, asking them to immediately find a cage, and he himself got up to take charge of maintaining order at the scene.
Lin Chengyou looked down at Wu Ji again, and suddenly pointed to a large stain on her right elbow: “When was this dirty?” Wu Yuanluo’s
face was already gray, and he looked at his sister’s arm, and he couldn’t help but be frightened, and said sharply to the maid next to him: “Speak! The
maids shook their heads in a panic: “The maid doesn’t know, Lady Fangcai’s clothes are obviously still clean…”
Teng Yuyi looked at that place in horror, the color was obviously darker than elsewhere, looking at things like pouring oil soup, not to mention Wu Zhen herself, the maid would never allow her own clothes to be so dirty.
Therefore, from the staining of clothes to the accident of Wu Zhen, it must have only been a short time.
Suddenly remembering the scene outside the window of Ju Shuangzhai again, the front foot Lu Zhaoan appeared, the back foot Wu Lady had an accident, plus Shao Tang’s fellow window Hu Gongzi who was suddenly snatched of his soul, it was impossible not to think about Lu Zhao’an, here was a sea of people, even if Lin Chengyou had the ability to reach the heavens, he could not take care of it, Teng Yuyi was afraid that Lu Zhao’an would take advantage of the chaos to escape, and he was busy signaling Chang Geng to remind Lin Chengyou in the past.
“Dali Temple officials are handling cases here, and they can’t come closer to them without worship.” Yan Ji stopped Chang Gung with a good voice.
Lin Chengyou recognized Chang Gung at a glance, although this guard said that he had changed his face, he had been following Teng Yuyi tonight, only when Teng Yuyi had something to look for him, he said busily: “Brother Yan, let him come.”
Chang Geng recently told Teng Yuyi’s discovery.
Lin Chengyou looked around, crowded in the front row to see the lively mostly five big and three thick men, he could not find Teng Yuyi in the crowd for a while, had to whisper: “This place is dangerous, first take your master back to Ju Shuang Zhai.”
Chang Gung responded.
Teng Yuyi was already anxious to find Sister A and Shao Tang, and she was busy coming out of the pile of people, and she was not worried about anything else now, she was worried about the safety of Sister Ah and Shao Tang.
Without going far, I saw Sister Ah and Shao Tang walking head-on, and there was a man with a beautiful figure beside Sister Ah, who had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his appearance was almost carved out of the same mold as the saint.
Teng Yuyi was embarrassed, how could Sister Ah be with the prince?
The prince’s party had obviously heard that there was an accident here, and his face was a little uneasy, Du Tinglan’s face was pale, and he was looking for something in the crowd with his eyes as he walked.
Gradually getting closer, the prince seemed to be aware of the surrounding gaze, quietly pulled away from Du Tinglan, and then led the people around him quickly through the pile of people, coldly looking at Wu Zhen on the ground, immediately surprised, walked to Lin Chengyou’s side and half-crouched down, and whispered what happened.
Du Shaotang saw Teng Yuyi in the crowd and couldn’t help but be surprised and delighted: “Jade cousin! We’re looking for you.
Du Tinglan hurriedly approached and grabbed Teng Yuyi’s arm: “What happened over there?”
“Don’t go over, the murderer may be mixed up in the pile.” Teng Yuyi was still full of surprise, and pulled Du Shaotang’s sister and brother to a place where there were few people, “Sister A, how can you be with the prince?” Du Tinglan’s
face was slightly red, and Du Shaotang glanced at Sister Ah with a strange expression.
***
Du Tinglan and Teng Yuyi discussed tonight’s thief when they came out in the evening, so when Teng Yuyi went to buy candy people before, Du Tinglan did not come out, waited for a while and did not see his sister turn around, and he could not help but feel a little worried, so he also found a reason and took his brother out of the building.
As soon as the two sisters and brothers arrived outside the door, there was a small squatter in the crowd who approached silently, Huo Qiu was going to deal with the person, recognizing that the other party was the long follower beside Lin Chengyou, and suddenly stunned, Kuan Nu invited the sisters and brothers to an inconspicuous corner, politely and politely explained their intentions.
Saying that there is an important matter in his own family that he wants to inquire about with Lady Teng, ask Du Niangzi to help cover up one or two, in case someone inquires about the whereabouts of Lady Teng, only to say that Lady Teng went to Linshuizhai to get the jewelry that was fixed, and also said that the treasurer of Linshuizhai also greeted her in advance, and Du Niangzi did not have to worry.
Du Tinglan’s sister and brother had dealt with Lin Chengyou several times, and they knew that this person was Lin Chengyou’s confidant, even if they were full of doubts, they had to respond.
In order to make their return more natural, the sisters and brothers bought some jade noodles by hand, returned to The Chrysanthemum to distribute to the same window, and the same window could not sit still and left one after another.
Du Shaotang reluctantly survived for another half an hour, and seeing that there were few people in the building, he said: “Sister, tonight is so lively, what does it mean to sit still, let’s go for a stroll.” I
had to drag my sister out of the building.
As soon as he arrived outside, Du Shaotang became active, put a wishing lamp by the river, and dragged his sister around, Du Tinglan walked while looking for Teng Yuyi, but unfortunately there was no news until he reached Linshuizhai.
The sisters and brothers had to return along the same road again, halfway encountered hu people playing a trick, that Hu people brocade pants, vulture jumped on a long rope in mid-air, that dexterous figure was comparable to an ape, Du Shaotang was young and greedy, suddenly came to be interested, dragging his sister to watch closely, happened to have an old woman holding her grandson out of the pile, bumped into Du Shaotang head-on, the old woman did not have time to smoke her feet, and was stomped hard by Du Shaotang.
Du Shaotang took a few steps back in fright.
Du Tinglan was stunned and hurriedly stretched out his arms to support the old woman.
Du Shaotang quickly stabilized his body: “Old lady, is it all right?” The old woman had a green skirt, and she didn’t
even have a wooden noodle on her head, and her grandson in her arms was holding a worn-out rattle, which was also a coarse cloth dress.
The old woman is not wary of being stepped on, since it is a belly fire, to be a few words, only to find that stepping on herself is a richly dressed little Lang Jun, and then look at the little lady who supports herself, she is also full of nobility, knowing that the other party is not rich or expensive, and she swallowed the sentence “Is it not long eyes” to swallow back.
He didn’t dare to peck, but there was nothing good on his face, and the old woman pushed away Du Tinglan’s hand, limped to the side and hugged her grandson to the side, and cried out loudly: “Oh yo, it hurts the old body.” This
shout of her attracted the eyes of the people around her.
Du Shaotang panicked, this woman is old, he should not step on the other party’s toe bone when he goes down.
Du Tinglan’s face was also hot, fortunately, he was wearing a drapery hat on his head, so as not to be watched by too many people, busy signaling his brother to apologize, and he supported the old woman, and he was relieved in a warm voice: “Brother Is rash, the old lady is not annoyed, there is a medical center near here, we will accompany you to take a look.”
Du Shaotang bowed down deeply and said, “I’m sorry, I blame the juniors for being reckless.” The old woman was
tricky, but her heart and eyes were not very bad, and after thinking about it, the other party could have ignored it, only because of the good upbringing, she stayed behind to apologize with good words, and listened to the soft words of the sisters and brothers, and the gas in her stomach had long since disappeared. Besides, there was no big problem on the foot, I really wanted to go to the medical hall, maybe the medical worker didn’t even bother to take the bottle of potion, so he said in a rough voice: “I don’t need it.” This little Lang Jun, you look thin and weak, the strength to step on people is big enough, the old body is afraid that this foot surface will be swollen for several days.
Du Tinglan did not want to go, seeing that the old woman said that she would not go to the medical center in death, so she had to take out a small money bag and give the few taels of money in it to the grandson of the old woman.
This time the old woman did not want to go, Du Tinglan knew that the old woman had concerns, so she smiled and said that her grandson was born cute, this money isBuy food for Xiao Langjun.
The old woman smiled at this.
The sisters and brothers turned around, and they saw a young man in purple not far away looking at this side with a smile, his eyes were gentle and amiable, and his temperament was also extraordinary. Fang Cai’s scene was seen by this man.
Du Tinglan’s sister and brother had seen the prince at Ledao Mountain Villa, and they couldn’t help but look at each other with surprise: His Royal Highness the Prince.
The prince seemed to be hanging out alone, the white dragon fish suit, only a few retinues around him, in this case, it was not easy to rush forward to salute, and the sisters and brothers had to pretend not to recognize the prince.
Not far away, Du Shaotang saw a merchant selling steamed pears on the side of the road, and said excitedly: “Sister Ah loves to eat this the most, Sister A, you wait, I will buy two bowls.”
Du Tinglan had to stop.
After that encounter, Du Shaotang was afraid to step on the feet of others again, obviously outside the crowd, but he could not squeeze in for a long time.
Du Tinglan remembered to go to find Teng Yuyi, and when he saw the situation, he wanted to summon his brother to come out, but at this moment, several people walked to the stall and bought several bowls of steamed pears in one go, and the prince turned around and handed two bowls to Du Shaotang, smiled and said: “Du Gongzi, take it.”
Du Shaotang stayed for a while, he had thought that the prince and his party had already gone elsewhere, but he didn’t expect to arrive here, and it was not good to brush the prince’s intentions, so he respectfully took the pear bowl, thanked him, and came out of the pile of people and gave one of the bowls to his sister.
Du Tinglan was confused and confused, and could only accept this kindness in a confused manner.
With the friendship of this bowl of steamed pears, the prince naturally walked with the sisters and brothers.
“Du Gongzi is studying in Guozi Prison?” How many years have you been studying? The prince’s
voice was like a breeze.
Du Shaotang has always been timid, this time he was scared of his soul, when he raised his sleeves to wipe his sweat, he subconsciously glanced at Sister A, and as a result, he did not look at Sister A’s eyes, but he caught a glimpse of Huo Qiu not far away, since Jade Cousin sent Huo Qiu to his side, Huo Qiu was a Qianxi Ti, not even a mistake had ever occurred, think that this is all a person trained by Jade Cousin, and Jade Cousin is only four years older than himself…
In the past, he listened to his grandmother and sister in everything, and during this time he assigned Huo Qiu a lot of things, and gradually got used to the feeling that he had made up his mind.
He fixed his mind and tried to answer according to his own thoughts: “A certain five-year-old enlightened monk has been studying in the Guozi Prison for six years. The
prince said gently: “The Du family’s disciples are all Zhilan Yushu, Ling Zun is even more talented, I heard that Du Gong originally entered the shike to get the first class, but because he made a long endowment of “The Suffering of the People”, he was demoted out of Chang’an by the officials of the bureaucracy, I had the honor to read this long endowment, other officials are accustomed to singing praises and praises, Ling Zun is a word for the people to cry bitterness, but unfortunately this long endowment did not reach my grandfather’s hands. It was suppressed by the faint and incompetent Gu Shangshu at that time, this matter… Has Du Gongzi ever heard of it?
Du Shaotang secretly pinched a handful of sweat, that was a major turning point in Grandpa’s career, the original future was immeasurable, and since then it has fallen to the bottom, this is related to the future of the Du family, and he must not answer at will, he can’t make up his mind for a while, he had to look at Sister As if asking for help.
When the prince saw it in his eyes, he couldn’t help but feel some remorse, and he wanted to find some words at random, but he didn’t expect to make the sisters and brothers look like enemies.
Du Tinglan noticed his brother’s gaze for help, and there was no sound on his face, but his back stood up straighter.
Du Shaotang’s heart lit up, and he pondered the words: “Grandpa often said that as a court official, the first meaning is to share the worries of the saints and the people, and the more wise the king, the more he can accept the advice like a stream, the so-called ‘the law has been lost, the secretary can correct it’.” It is precisely because the saint is a wise prince who regards the people as sons that Grandpa dares to write straight. The
prince smiled slightly, these words were not humble, praising the monarch at the same time, but also once again dissecting the loyalty of the Du family.
He had heard that Du Yuzhi’s temperament was too straight, and he often folded his face, so it seemed that Du Shaotang seemed to be softer than his father, and the outer circle and the inner square were particularly valuable.
Yes, Lady Du was born in the Taiyuan Wang clan, and the temperament of the sisters and brothers xu was with her mother, no wonder Du Tinglan was so gentle and generous.
Du Tinglan’s heart is even more full of mixed feelings, Ayu always said that she wants her brother to be alone, but she and Ah Niang are always uneasy, now it seems that she and Ah Niang are too deeply wrong, where in this world there are birds that cannot do without wings, as if it is a moment, the brother has grown up.
I don’t know what the prince will ask next, but it seems that she doesn’t have to hang a heart all the time.
The prince could not help but feel a little helpless.
Blame him, this is also the first time he has spoken to the little lady.
Ah Niang’s other affairs are loosely managed, but she pays special attention to the affairs of her future daughter-in-law, before moving into the East Palace, there are no maids around him, and after moving into the East Palace, there are only some elderly grandmothers in the palace.
Not only that, Ah Niang also instructed her sons to take Grandpa as an example and not to take concubines for the rest of their lives.
The prince knew very well in his heart that it was precisely because there were many concubines around the former emperor that the infant grandfather was almost poisoned, and the grandfather hated the harem for favors, and he had never accepted a concubine for many years.
By this year, at the request of Ah Niang, he began to pay attention to these ladies in Chang’an, originally he was very curious about Teng Yuyi because of Teng Shao, but unfortunately, on the night of the Ledao Mountain Villa, Teng Yuyi had a rubella attack, he could not see Teng Yuyi’s appearance, but was sucked away by Du Tinglan.
Before, it was only a distant view, but just now I glimpsed Du Tinglan’s appearance at close range, as soon as the wind blew, the thin gauze curtain could not stop anything, Du Tinglan Qiong nose cherry lips, born a pair of crescent moon-like eyes.
He had never seen such gentle and clear eyes, and his heart couldn’t stop beating faster when he looked at it.
Seeing that Du Shaotang was a little cramped, he decided to change the subject and smiled: “There are people over there who talk about changing texts, why don’t you go and listen to them?” The
sisters and brothers breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
At this moment, a large crowd of people rushed towards the arch bridge in front of the Qinglong Temple, and Du Tinglan was unexpected and almost washed down by the crowd.
Du Shaotang’s body was thin, he could not protect Sister A, Huo Qiu was separated from three feet away, and he could not get close for a while, Du Tinglan was constantly pushed and squeezed by the crowd behind him, and the moment he was about to fall, he was steadily supported by people.
Du Tinglan looked up in confusion, just in front of the prince’s eyes, and the prince let go of his hand and said, “There seems to be something messy over there, go and see.”
Du Tinglan was grateful.
However, the more she went forward, the more doubts in her heart became, no matter how crowded the crowd was, as long as she encountered a time when she couldn’t move, the prince could always help her block a block without moving.
She naturally knew what this meant, only by paying extra attention to someone would she see all the actions of the other party in her eyes, and tonight the prince would inevitably appear too coincidentally, the Qinglong Temple theater was so big, but the prince had always been on the same road with them.
The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became.
Fortunately, as soon as he arrived at the scene of the incident, the prince spontaneously separated from them.
***
“Sister?” Teng Yuyi looked at Du Tinglan curiously.
Du Tinglan did not know how to answer the call, this matter was really too strange, but thinking about it carefully, he felt that everything was just a coincidence, and Du Shaotang thought that the prince’s attitude was too enthusiastic, and he made a fuss in his head and quietly said everything about Fang Cai.
Teng Yuyi froze.
There are so many places near the Qinglong Temple that you can play, where the prince goes is not good, but he wants to walk with Sister A, and the key is that he has inquired about so many Things about the Du family along the way.
Of course, in Teng Yuyi’s eyes, Sister A is the most beautiful beauty in the world, last time in the Ledao Mountain Villa in the crowd of talented women to the top, the prince is not present, in the presence of seeing, it is not surprising.
It’s just that tonight there are many tourists, and the scene just now is estimated to have been seen by many people, fortunately, Sister A wears a veiled hat, and few people nearby know the prince.
Teng Yuyi relaxed his heart and grabbed Du Tinglan’s arm: “This place is not easy to talk to, let’s go back to Ju Shuang Zhai first.”
Du Tinglan tiptoed to look at the scene of the incident: “What the hell happened?”
Teng Yuyi said what had happened before.
The siblings were stunned.
The three of them returned to Ju Shuang Zhai, and at the door stood two servants of Dali Temple.
Almost all the same window came back. Teng Yuyi silently counted in his heart, everyone was there, only Wu Zhen and Wu Qi were missing, one was in trouble, and the other was accompanying Brother A to help on the side.
Liu Siniang and the others wiped their tears: “Everyone is happy to come out to play, who knows that such a thing happened, the murderer is really bold.”
Peng Da Niang and Peng Er Niang also sighed, “Haven’t you seen it, Duke Wu and Wu Qi are in a hurry, when something like this happens, the Wu family will never give up.” “What
does it mean to lose a soul and a soul, and I wonder if I can get it back?”
Deng Weili also had tear marks in his eyes, and he was silent for half a moment and said in a hateful voice: “Tonight’s events are too strange.” Wu Ji said that he wanted to take me to meet a person and asked me to wait for her at the seventh pier, but he did not wait for Wu Ji, but he was mistaken by the people who thought that I was traveling with Cheng Wang Shizi.
Li Huaigu was stunned: “You didn’t know that King Cheng Shizi was by your side?”
“Afterwards, my two maids told me, but in fact, I was preoccupied with waiting for wu zhen at that time, and I didn’t pay attention to who was around me.”
Teng Yuyi couldn’t help but say, “Did Wu Zhen personally say this to you?” Or is it someone else’s word to help pass it on?
“Wu Xuan said it to me personally.” Deng Weili sobbed, “The strange thing is that as soon as I said this, I couldn’t find her all night, and I couldn’t help but see her passing by the front of the building, and before I could ask her in person what kind of ghost she was doing, she had an accident.” The
fellow windows looked at each other: “Is this too coincidental to make us mistakenly think that you are meeting with Wang Shizi?” But what good does it do her? A distant relative of the
Liu family foolishly interjected: “I heard that Wu Da Niang is one of the candidates for the Crown Princess, if you or ask everyone to mistakenly think that Lady Deng has an affair with Cheng Wang Shizi, she will not -”
Liu SiNiang changed her face on the spot: “Wulang, you shut up.” The
man was too frightened to make a sound.
Deng Weili said flatly, “It is impossible, I don’t know what kind of character Lady Wu is?” She wouldn’t hurt people because of this kind of thing. Others
also echoed: “That is, Lady Wu is notoriously soft-hearted, and she has no quarrel with the world on weekdays, otherwise she would not have been secretly pried into the corner by Duan Qingying of the Zhenguo Gongfu.”
“But the murderer took away Wu Daniang’s soul, and there must always be a reason.”
Peng Jinxiu seemed to remember something, and slammed a shiver: “Last time I heard that the prince had a crush, said that the person had a gentle temperament, the prince fell in love at first sight, there were many talented and beautiful women in the academy, but there were few with gentle temperaments, saying that it was Wu Da Niang, would the murderer be because of this-”
The girls were stunned.
The crown princess candidates lead the whole body, and until the dust settles, the palace will never leak even a little wind.
Where did the Peng family get the news?
Peng Huayue loudly interrupted her sister and said with a strong smile: “You are not surprised, the second sister is very straight, it is estimated that a certain fellow window joked with Wu Da Niang, but my sister believes it to be true.”
Peng Jinxiu also knew that he had lost his word, and he grabbed the towel in fear, and did not dare to say a word next.
Just listening to someone talking outside the door, after a while Ya Gong came in and said, “Which one is Lady Deng?” Dali Temple officials have a few words to ask in person. Please go to the second floor room, Yan Jizhi and Lin Commentator will come later, in order to avoid suspicion, you can take the maid and grandma with you.
Deng Weili put on his drapery hat and led the people downstairs.
Ya Gong continued, “Please ask Lady Wu’s classmates to wait here for a while, and you may ask questions one by one later.”
Deng Weili waited for a while in the second floor room, then heard footsteps coming from the stairs, and soon, Lin Chengyou and Yan Ji pushed the door straight in.
Deng Weili got up and performed a salute.
Yan Sizhi sat down and asked, “Tonight is the bridge that Wu Ji asked Lady Deng to go to?”
Deng Weili told the previous events.
Lin Chengyou said, “Did someone give you a piece of jewelry tonight?” Where was it delivered? Do you know who that person is? Deng Weili ordered
the maid to present the brocade box of the star-picking building to the two people: “When I came down from the bridge, I wanted to go directly back to Ju Shuang Zhai, but when I saw that there were puppets selling on the side of the road, I couldn’t help but stop. The peddler said that he had a complete set of eighteen pieces of music in his box, but he was now in the alley, and if I was interested, I could go to the alley and have a look. I brought a lot of servants around me, and there were all pedestrians around, so I forgave this peddler for not daring to have evil thoughts, so I followed him to the alley, and the hawker took out a brocade box from the cargo box and stuffed it into the maid, and without saying a word, turned around and ran. I asked the maid to throw away the box, but the maid opened the box and looked at it, inside was a pair of precious and extraordinary rings of moon beads, the outside of the box was still stamped with the words ‘star picking building’, yes, there was a letter attached to the inside of the lid.
Lin Chengyou asked, “You like to buy puppets?”
Deng Weili said frankly: “Since I was a child, I like to buy puppets, and every time I come out to play, I will buy a few to go back.”
Lin Chengyou and Yan Ji looked directly at each other, no wonder every step could be accurate, it turned out that they had penetrated Lady Deng’s habits in advance.
“What about the letter?” Lin Chengyou said again.
Deng Weili asked the letter to be presented.
Lin Chengyou opened the letter and was stunned on the spot, the content of the letter was very strange, but the handwriting was very familiar.
Yan Ji nao was even more surprised: “This is not…”
Isn’t this Lin Chengyou’s handwriting?
The letter was very lingering, almostEvery sentence is expressing their admiration for Deng Weili, coupled with the arch bridge “same tour” and the jewelry of the star building, anyone will mistakenly think that Lin Weili has looked at Deng Weili.
Lin Chengyou looked at the place where the money was dropped, and there was not a word.
“Does Lady Deng know who wrote this letter?”
Deng Weili was silent for a while: “I don’t have a clue either.
Lin Chengyou smiled: “If you really have no clue, you will throw the jin box in the alley on the spot, how can you let the maid carefully save it?”
“All right.” Deng Weili sighed, “I thought it was given to me by His Highness the Crown Prince, so I didn’t dare to throw it away without permission.” Yan Ji
was stunned, and the demeanor of this Lady Deng was a bit similar to that of General Teng’s daughter.
Lin Chengyou closed the box with his hand: “This matter may be related to the murderer, Dali Temple needs to immediately find out the source of the jewelry, if it is really sent by one of Deng Niangzi’s admirers, we will return it to Deng Niangzi when we find out.”
Deng Weili breathed a sigh of relief: “It’s okay.”
Lin Chengyou added, “So when Wu Zhen had an accident, what were the same windows as Ju Shuang zhai?”
Deng Weili was shocked, listening to this meaning, didn’t he suspect that it was the hand of the same window to Wu Daniang?
“In addition to me, there are Teng Niangzi, Liu Siniang, and Wu Qi, and the other table is…” Deng Weili thought carefully, and for the sake of prudence, he added, “By the way, Teng Niangzi was the last to come in, and less than a quarter of an hour after she sat down, there was an accident outside.”
After
Deng Weili left, Yan Jizhi wrote in his pen book: “It seems that these few people in Ju Shuangzhai can rule out suspicions… After the soul retrieval, everyone’s seizure time is different, although Lady Teng was in the building at the time of the incident, but she sat down for less than a quarter of an hour and had an accident, so she was suspicious.
But he heard Lin Chengyou say, “It won’t be her.” Yan
Ji naoto.
Lin Chengyou looked at the pen book in front of her and said lightly: “Before she stayed with me, I asked someone to ask her about the affairs in the academy, about a few words, let Kuan Nu send her back to Ju Shuang Zhai, halfway met Wu Da Niang, according to Kuan Nu, at that time, Wu Da Niang was conscious, stopped and said a few words with Teng Niangzi before breaking up, this matter Kuan Nu and several retinues can testify, to take the soul at least to burn the charm, under the eyes of Kuan Nu and others.” Teng Niangzi did not have a chance to do it. If this matter had
not been made clear in advance, Yan Sizhi would have carefully examined Teng Yuyi in order to investigate the case, so that the private meeting between him and Teng Yuyi would be recorded in the case submission.
Yan Ji looked at Lin Chengyou with a stunned look, saying things and talking about things, his face was also red, and his heart suddenly lit up, it turned out that Lin Zhishi’s sweetheart was Teng Niangzi.
It must be, otherwise there will be no rush to help Teng Niangzi clear up, think about his past when looking for Lin Comment, just bumped into a figure of Lin Qiao hurriedly left, when Lin Commenter stayed in the alley, it can be seen that the two just broke up, to Lin Commenter’s person, if he did not want to meet with which little lady in private, it would never be so.
Yan Jizhi did not poke through Lin Chengyou, but only nodded his head in understanding: “Well, then–who will we talk to next?” ”
Lady Teng.”
Teng Yuyi quickly came up, and as soon as he pushed the door, he saw Lin Chengyou, who sat behind the case and signaled her to sit down opposite.
“Sit.”
Teng Yuyi nodded, although he was wearing a drapery hat on his head, the sound of the small cracks when he shook his steps was clearly audible.
Lin Chengyou looked up at her head, then lowered her eyes again, and said as usual: “Where was the last time Lady Teng saw Lady Wu tonight?”
Teng Yuyi said, “Near the arch bridge.” “Who
were around Lady Wu at that time?”
“It seems like there are only three handmaidens.”
“No windows?”
Teng Yuyi shook his head.
“Wu Yuanluo is not here either?”
Teng Yuyi thought for a moment, “Anyway, I wasn’t with Lady Wu at that time.” “Is
there anything unusual on Lady Wu’s face?” Did she speak clearly to you? Teng Yuyi
bowed his head: “Very clear.” She had a number of gadgets in her hands, small kites the size of palms, small hammers, almost four or five gadgets, and when she saw me, she stopped and smiled and said a few words to me, and then she took the maids to the other end. “Where
did she say she was going?”
“She said she was going to the river to put a wishing lamp.”
Lin Chengyou said, “Can she carry a lantern in her hand?” “Nothing
.”
“What about the maid next to you?”
“I didn’t mention the lantern either.”
Yan Ji frowned, “I want to go to the river to put the wishing lamp, but I don’t have a lantern in my hand, so I plan to buy a lantern first.”
Lin Chengyou suddenly said, “Were there any suspicious people around you at that time?” For example, someone carrying a piece of meat in his hand silently followed behind Wu Da Niang.
Teng Yuyi blinked, who would hang around carrying a piece of meat on such a good night, could it be that the murderer was a butcher?
She thought back seriously, “I didn’t see it.” There were too many people on the main street, and I didn’t pay much attention.
“So what strange things happened to you on the way back?”
“Yes.” Teng Yuyi said busily, “Not long after returning to Ju Shuangzhai, I saw Lu Zhaoan walking past the front of the building, and then I heard that something had happened to Wu Zhen.
Teng Yuyi had already sent Chang Geng to tell Lin Chengyou
about this, but Yan Sizhi did not know it, and was horrified: “Lu Zhao’an?
There is no such coincidence in the world, every time there is a case of losing a soul, Lu Zhaoan happens to be nearby. The first Hu Jizhen Hu Gongzi fell out with Lu Zhao’an before the accident. The second victim, Li Ying’er, accidentally fell into the well of the Chu Guo Temple, both of which were not far from Lu Zhao’an’s residence.
Tonight’s Wu Da Niang finally had nothing to do with Lu Zhaoan, who appeared nearby before the incident.
Yan Ji wrote this record with a straight pen: “Lin Comment, it seems that we can formally interrogate Lu Zhaoan.”
Lin Chengyou said to Teng Yuyi again, “Spread your hands out, and I’ll see if there are any traces of the runes.” Teng Yuyi
knew that this was meant to be given to Yan Ji to look at directly, so he straightened his arms and spread his palms in front of the two of them.
Lin Chengyou got up and approached, and tried it with a charm in front of Yan Jizhi.
“Well, I haven’t used the charms, so I can go. Next
, Lin Chengyou and Yan Sizhi passed on Li Huaigu and others to ask questions.
Lin Chengyou opened the door: “Where were you before Lady Wu’s accident?”
Li Huaigu said calmly, “Take the maid to buy a kite.” My family servant said that when I was a child, I flew a kite near the Chu Guo Temple, but unfortunately I was seriously ill when I was a child, and I had forgotten these things earlier, and when my family servant talked about this matter, I was curious and went to the kite shop to have a look.
She said, asking the maid next to her to take out the kite she had just bought.
Lin Chengyou was stunned, this kite was so familiar, I don’t know where I saw it.
“Where did you see Lady Wu tonight?”
Li Huaigu shook his head: “After I came, I drank tea at Ju Shuang Zhai, and then I went to buy a kite, and then I heard that something had happened, and I didn’t see Wu Da Niang all night.” The
kite shop is nearby, how long has Li Sanniang been in the store and asked the store to know, she dared to say so, I think it is a clear conscience.
Lin Chengyou got up from behind the table: “Please ask Lady Li to spread your hands, I have to check if you have used the charm tonight.”
“Good.” Li Huaigu raised his arms and spread his palms.
Lin Chengyou came closer and bent down to look at it.
Yan Sizhi’s gaze fell on Li Huaigu’s hand, and this little lady’s fingers were unusually white and slender.
The strange thing was that when it was originally held steadily in mid-air, Lin Chengyou approached, and Li Sanniang’s chest suddenly rose and fell sharply, as if she was a little nervous, and like a little shy, she quickly returned to her senses and quietly stabilized her arm.
