Chapter 256: Unintentional Flirting
Chapter 256
Although it was autumn and there was a lot of ice in the house, it was still full of the smell of corpses, Wei Qian said, "Let's go out and talk." ”
Cheng Yujing nodded, and before going out, he couldn't help but glance at Yang Ling's corpse again.
Regarding the fight between Cheng Yujing and Yang Ling, Wei Qian knows a little bit, this kind of thing is not uncommon in officialdom, but now that a murder has occurred, Cheng Yujing is naturally the number one suspect, although he faintly feels that the murderer may be someone else, and at this time, the case cannot be completely revealed to the suspect.
Peng You obviously hated Cheng Yujing very much, and almost believed in his heart that Yang Xuan's death, even if it was not done by this person, he would definitely not be able to get rid of it. If you want to say which person in Suzhou City is most looking forward to Yang Ling's death, Peng You privately thinks that it must be Cheng Yujing.
But after all, he still had a trace of reason, and he didn't pounce on the spot and tear this person apart.
"Master Cheng, since this case happened to let me bump into it, it is better to leave it to me to deal with it. Wei Qian was not asking Cheng Yujing's opinion, but informing him.
Don't drive, Changshi, Sima, every year to take turns to go to Beijing to report on their work, these three people are actually supervising the military and political affairs of a state, and play a role in assisting and supervising the history of the assassin, generally Changshi and Sima are more inclined to assist, and don't drive more inclined to supervise, so most of them are people trusted by the emperor.
Who likes to be constrained?
Such a person died unexpectedly in office, and the assassin could not escape suspicion and responsibility. Even if the vast majority of people are unlikely to do such stupid things, it is not excluded that some people want to take advantage of the loophole of "darkness under the lights".
Cheng Yujing knew it and said very cooperatively, "The case is entrusted to Lord Wei, and the official is very relieved." ”
The weather outside is getting more and more gloomy, and the autumn rain is sloppy, which is even bigger.
Cheng Yujing stared at the shiny shrub leaves washed by the rain in the yard, sighed, and did not avoid suspicion, "I have known him for more than 20 years, and the relationship has never been harmonious. ”
What he said was very interesting, on the surface, he admitted that the relationship between the two was not harmonious, but he actually conveyed a lot of content. First of all, he and Yang Ling are old acquaintances, and the disagreement between the two people in the past is just an ordinary matter; secondly, it was purely a disagreement in the past, and it is still a disagreement in the present situation, but it has changed because of the current situation, how has it changed? Who has changed? It is very intriguing.
Wei Qian sensed the complicated feelings implied in it, but Peng You only felt that Cheng Yujing was extremely hypocritical, and he said this to completely exonerate himself!
Old friends and old opponents died violently overnight, Cheng Yujing's sadness may not be sincere, but this kind of abrupt loss does seem too light, so light that every word can stab the grief-stricken Peng You.
Peng You gritted his back molars and used all his restraint to hold back and not stab him.
Cheng Yujing couldn't see Peng You's emotions, but he didn't care at all, "This official will explain, and everyone will do their best to help solve the case." ”
"There's Lord Law. Wei Qian's hand.
"I'm thanking you. Cheng Yujing exhaled slowly, "If such a big thing happens, it will be inconvenient to hold a reception banquet for the time being, and I hope Lord Wei will forgive me." ”
Wei Qian didn't go anywhere for official business to attend the reception banquet, he had been to Suzhou before, and Cheng Yujing naturally knew about it, but he always had to say a word on the scene.
Wei Qian said, "The case is important. ”
Cheng Yujing said that he really didn't ask if he gave full authority to Wei Qian, as if he came over just to say hello.
Cui Ning was sitting alone under the porch, and when she saw a few people coming out, she stood up and stroked her robe, and stepped forward to salute, "See Lord Cheng." ”
"If the official is not mistaken, this is Lord Xiao Cui, right?" Cheng Yujing said softly.
Cui Ning said, "It's Xia Guan." ”
Cheng Yujing said, "I used to be classmates with your grandfather, and you are also my junior, now that you are shouldering a heavy responsibility, it is not the time to talk, and when the real murderer is found, I will invite you to the mansion as a guest." ”
Cui Ning went to the East Courtyard every morning to eat, and often chatted, Cui Xuanbi also told some things before leaving this time, but he didn't say that there was such a classmate in Suzhou, and it was estimated that it was not a very close relationship. But since people took the initiative to show their goodwill, she had to say politely, "At that time, the juniors will definitely come to visit." ”
Cheng Yujing bowed slightly, turned to leave.
Wei Qian saw that Peng You was bent on the case, and Cheng Yujing let it go, so he said, "Master Peng, the specific clues of the case still need to be investigated, and we will continue after I settle down with Shining." ”
Peng You hurriedly said, "Xiaguan will arrange it." ”
Cui Ning has rarely been called since he took the table words, and even in the Supervision Department, others either shouted Little Cui or directly called Ah Ning. Cui Ning heard Wei Qian's words calling her for the first time, felt a little fresh, and wanted to say something, but Peng You, who was full of hatred in front of her, finally just pursed her lips and glanced at Wei Qian several times.
Yang's Mansion is not far from the Yamen, and when he settles down, Cui Ning is a lot more relaxed.
She hurriedly stepped up to discuss the case with Wei Qian, but he pushed it open with a finger against her head, "I have a smell on my body, and I will talk after taking a bath." ”
He frowned and stared at her damp hair, "You should also go take a shower and change your clothes, don't catch a cold." ”
Cui Ning had to go back to the house first to find a change of clothes.
This is the place where the yamen receives all kinds of officials, there are special baths, and there is more than one, but there are no maidservants. Fortunately, Cui Ning can still take care of herself without anyone to serve, but there is nothing inconvenient.
After washing, both of them wore wet hair and sat on the couch to help wipe each other.
"Fifth brother, you don't know how beautiful Mrs. Yang is!" Cui Ning couldn't wait to share what she had seen and heard with him, "The beauty of the peach and plum years is like jade, but not like a real person." ”
"Hmm. Wei Qian responded very seriously. In fact, his aesthetics are very different from ordinary people, and he can't understand Cui Ning's description at all, what he focuses on is, "Peach and plum years?"
"That's right! I said that I only married Yang Beijia last year. Cui Ning only thought at this time, "Ah, Yang Beijia can be her father for the age left." ”
Wei Qian was afraid that she would catch a cold, so he quickly dried her hair.
Cui Ning consciously took the dry towel cloth to help him wipe it, he was too tall, if she also sat down, it would be very difficult to reach, so she could only stand up and wipe it.
She wiped it and continued, "Mrs. Yang is also a good girl. ”
Generally, a woman gets married at the age of sixteen, and the rich and noble families can only stay until eighteen or nineteen, and they don't get married until they are in their twenties.
"And I think this Mrs. Yang is very common to Yang Beijia, and there is no husband and wife relationship at all. She spoke in a measured tone.
"Oh?" Wei Qian raised his eyebrows, "You can see this?"
Thinking that she is a small person, she doesn't even understand the relationship between men and women, but she is very serious about the relationship between husband and wife, which is interesting, and he can't help but look back.
Cui Ning felt questioned, stared at him and said seriously, "I was very clever when I was a child, and I was especially good at looking at people." For example, when I first saw Fifth Brother, I knew that you were the person I was looking for. ”
What she meant was that the first time she saw Wei Qian, she knew that he was an upright and upright person, and with her situation at the time, it was undoubtedly a thigh that could be hugged tightly, but the speaker had no intention, but it sounded a little sincere.
Alas, unintentional flirting is the most deadly.
Wei Qian's heart was chaotic for a moment, and he clenched his fist to his lips and coughed lightly, "Hmm." ”
