CHAPTER XXVIII
"Ah Heng, she ......" Li asked in a dumb voice. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Only then did Shen Zexi realize that the woman in his arms had already closed his eyes, and Mo Yan wanted to take Cui Jiayin from Shen Zexi, but was unintentionally avoided by Shen Zexi. Li was worried about Cui Jiayin and did not find anything wrong, but Cui Jiashan, who was standing aside, noticed this detail.
Shen Zexi stretched out his hand, probed Cui Jiayin's snort, and said to Li, "Auntie, she just fell asleep." ”
Li Shi breathed a sigh of relief, almost fell to the ground softly, God knows how scared she was just now, she only held on to her breath, and at this moment the big stone in her heart fell to the ground, and she couldn't stand anymore. Cui Jiashan quickly helped Li up, so he didn't fall.
Shen Zexi said again: "It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, why don't you take your cousins back to Cui's Mansion first?"
"It's not dawn yet...... Li worried: "If something happens again......
Shen Zexi knew her concerns, but with Cui Jiayin's current condition, it was better to ask the doctor to take a look earlier.
He said: "There are still some people around Jersey who are good at fists and kicks, so wouldn't it be good for them to escort you all the way back to Cui's mansion?"
Li knew that her cousin was married into a famous family of military generals, so she knew that what Shen Zexi said was definitely not a simple person who could only embroider her legs, so she hesitated for a while, thinking that Cui Jiayin's condition was not good, and she was in a hurry to go back to deal with these things earlier, so she nodded.
"Ah Heng told me yesterday that it is inconvenient for you and your sister to live in this Ganzhe Temple, why don't you go to Cui Mansion with me?" did not mention why Shen Zexi happened to appear here in the middle of the night on the third watch, and did not ask Shen Zexi why he saved Cui Jiayin so coincidentally.
Shen Zexi refused, "Don't bother, aunt, I still have some things to deal with, as for Si Ru...... Later, I will go with her and ask her, and if she wishes, then I will trouble my aunt. ”
Li knew that Shen Zexi was carrying the burden of the family on his shoulders, and he would definitely not be idle on weekdays, so he didn't force it, but said: "If she is willing to go to Cui's Mansion to play, then it would be great." Several girls are of similar age, and they can play in one place if they want to. ”
"I'm just going to bother you. ”
Shen Zexi smiled: "You and my mother are sisters in the boudoir, and they are relatives of each other. ”
Shen Zexi personally sent the Li family down Yuntai Mountain, asked Mo Yan to personally lead a team of people to escort the ladies of the Cui Mansion back to the house, and instructed Shen Siru, who was standing on the side and pretending to be well-behaved, not to cause trouble, watching the carriage of the Cui Mansion gradually disappear from sight, and left after a pause.
Today's events are strange at a glance, and he has to take a step forward to find out.
He didn't notice anything wrong with him, and he didn't think deeply about why he did it. It's just because Cui Fu and the Shen family have an in-law relationship, and he convinced himself that if his mother knew that his aunt had suffered such a thing, she would definitely not be at ease. Just for his mother's sake, he should also find out the truth.
Shen Zexi returned to the guest room where Cui Jiayin lived, although the guest room was finally extinguished by the monks and family members who rushed over, it was still burned beyond recognition, and it was still emitting bursts of heat and a scorching smell that could not be swept away.
It is not difficult to imagine that if he hadn't arrived in time, Cui Jiayin would have been burned alive inside.
Thinking of this possibility, Shen Zexi's face sank.
He had already gone into battle with his father at the age of ten, had seen many killings, and had seen many unspeakable punishments for prisoners of war, and he had long since put life and death on the line, but he never imagined that one day he would be terrified of a man who almost died.
The slight grease stains on the ground, the water tank that rained all day without a drop of water, and the tightly locked and burned doors and windows all showed that the accident was deliberate.
It's just that whether the person behind it is aimed at Cui Jiayin alone or everyone on this trip, it is not known at this moment.
With that in mind, he turned and walked to the room on the other side.
Li and Cui Jiashan's room obviously didn't burn so badly, but they could still see a little bit of the original appearance. Thinking that Li and Cui Jiashan escaped so easily, the initiator must have been only against Cui Jiayin.
He walked around the room several times, investigating the clues, but also had doubts in his heart.
If they were to target Cui's house, then the Li family and Cui Jiashan would not be able to escape, but this was not the case, the Li family and Cui Jiashan escaped, but only Cui Jiayin was locked inside.
That is to fight against the patriotic prince Cui Yi?
Cui Yi is a princeling, no matter how sophisticated and tactful he is, he can't avoid fighting people in the DPRK and China, especially when it comes to partisan disputes, the two sides have never been soft.
Cui Jiayin, as Cui Yi's daughter, killed her to fight Cui Yi, although this reason is possible, but it is also too far-fetched. Risking being discovered to do such a thing, once discovered, it will not be a simple petty fight, with the prestige of Cui Mansion and Queen Cui's favor for Cui Jiayin, it will definitely end endlessly.
But anyone with some brains will not choose this path.
Could it be that Cui Jia offended people because of himself?
As soon as this idea came out, it was denied by Shen Zexi. Who can Cui Jiayin offend? The people she got acquainted with were just some boudoir daughters, and even if she offended them, she wouldn't have the courage to kill someone.
As he walked, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a bright glittering light from the ground, which was especially obvious on the charred ground, and he stepped forward to see that it was a plain silver earring.
The earrings are carved with extremely ordinary patterns, and the carving skills are not too exquisite, slightly rough, and I wonder which maid fell.
He thought about it, but still brought the earring with him, no matter whose earring it was, the person was always a little suspicious.
He went outside and said to an ordinary-looking monk of a slightly older age, "This matter must be troubled by the abbot." ”
"The donor doesn't have to be polite, this matter is also negligent in the temple, so that the female dependents of the Cui Mansion suffered an unwarranted disaster, and the poor monk should give an explanation to the Cui Mansion. Master Lichen said calmly.
"It's just ......," he hesitated, as if to consider whether to say it or not.
Shen Zexi asked, "Just what?"
After this incident, Miss Cui Jiu's life seems to have changed, and the poor monk is not skilled in learning and has not been able to solve it. Master Lichen said.
The presiding officer of Ganzhe Temple is good at meeting and deducing his life, and many nobles have thought of asking him to come to the house to count, but he has refused to be disclosed. But now Cui Jiayin's life can't even be counted by the abbot, which is a bit weird.
