041 Murder in a Locked Room: Panic
On the second day, the lord of the government took the prince Haique Pai to Qiancaotang to propose marriage. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info There was a boiling up and down the Golden Capital City.
There are many people talking about this in the Moon Fan Workshop. The people who witnessed the pomp and circumstance danced with their eyebrows, and those who had not seen it listened carefully while being annoyed, and they all sighed with emotion.
Mu Yi returned to the counter with an empty plate, and couldn't help muttering sneeringly: "Lord Hai is so ambitious, why don't you go to Wanren Mountain Villa to propose marriage?"
Twilight, who was reading the account book at the counter, gave her a warning look, and Mu Jiu hurriedly whispered to persuade her, "Sister, don't talk about it." ”
Mu Yi remembered what had happened before and shut his mouth stupidly.
The south hall was too noisy, and Twilight closed the account book, ready to go back to Twilight and leave the house to look again. She thought that Mu Yi was not wrong when he said something, Lord Hai was really ambitious. It's just that he won't go to Wanren Villa to propose. At the beginning, she married the Liu family in the east of the city, and she took a fancy to the identity of Liu Mengran, the only daughter of the Liu family, and after a hundred years of Liu Lao, the wealth and foundation of the Wanguan family belonged to her. Qianyun is even better than Liu Mengran, she is now the head of Qiancaotang, and her status is prominent. And the fourth lady of the Jiang family is favored again, but Wanren Villa is in the hands of the young master Jiang Xiaojun. Wise as the sea, if you want to get rid of the shackles of the four tyrants of Jindu, you know how to lay out.
There is no surprise that the in-laws of the government and Qiancaotang have been decided.
Qianyun is the master of Qiancaotang, but the marriage event is involuntarily. The lord of the government and his son personally came to the house to propose, and after the elders in the hall discussed, they symbolically asked Qianyun about the meaning and agreed to the marriage. Whether it is from the perspective of family interests or her personal perspective, she has no choice but to agree.
The news of the marriage spread, and Qianxing was laying ink under the camphor tree to trace a branch of phalaenopsis.
Twilight asked him, "Except for Qianyun, the elders in the hall don't know that you've returned." After all, you're Qianyun's little uncle, aren't you going to say hello?"
"There are many people who are happy, and I am not the only one. Qianxing understands very well that Yun'er is just fulfilling her duties as a housewife. But he still asked, "When is the wedding date?"
"The beginning of spring next year. ”
Thousands of lines put down the pen, and a pair of phalaenopsis orchids are painted vividly. He raised his eyes and smiled at Twilight's lips, "Thank you." ”
Xie She told him about Yun'er, and thanked her for helping him hide his traces from being discovered by the elders of the thousands of families.
I don't know if it was the dazzling sunlight or his smile was too dazzling, Twilight waved his hand a little uncomfortably, and then pointed to the drawing paper on the stone table and said, "Little uncle, is it okay to give me this painting?"
"Good. "Thousands of lines of pen inscription on the clear word, and called the red girl to mount the painting.

Another day later, Twilight was in the room listening to the news of Chu Xiao. Ling Yuelou's girl Xiaodeng could only find out the identity of her orphan girl, and nothing else.
Twilight frowned and pondered, Chu Mo appeared with a cold face and said to her, "Second Master Liu is here, in the Guihai Elegant Room." ”
"How many?"
"Just him and the housekeeper Liu Dafu, as if they were waiting for someone. ”
Tomorrow is the day of the election, what kind of medicine is being sold in Liu Erye's gourd?
"Staring at the dots. ”

At night, when Hualiu Lane was at its most lively, Chu Mo appeared again, saying that Liu Erye was dead.
Twilight Yang was shocked, and ordered Mu Yi to report to the official as soon as possible, and asked Chu Mo Chu Li Chu Yin to watch the scene of the crime, one to guard the Moon Fan Fang No one is allowed to enter or leave, and the other to cooperate with the two grandmothers of Wangchun Garden and Yexinju to appease.
Qianxing, who heard the news, rushed over and saw her rubbing the corners of her forehead with a headache, and said with relief: "Don't worry, it'll be fine." ”
Twilight nodded. It's not what she does, and she's naturally not afraid. Annoyingly, this happened on her turf.
The south hall was panicked, and when Twilight arrived, Mu Jiu and the others were trying to appease. The periphery of the Guihai elegant room was full of people, and Chu Mo stood at the door with a sword in one hand, with an indifferent expression, making people dare not approach. Zhuang Geun was also there, but she stood on the outermost side, leaning against the railing and watching it all indifferently.
After a while, Xing Yan and the others arrived quickly, and Qingyuan then rushed to hear the news.
According to the housekeeper Liu Dafu, Liu Erye only needed a pot of pear blossom wine and ordered him to wait outside the door. Until the night, Liu Erye and others did not appear. Suddenly, there was a sound of broken porcelain in the private room, he knocked on the door and asked for no response, so he pushed the door in, and saw the second master lying on the table, with blood hanging from the corners of his mouth, his eyes staring at him, and the broken wine glass at his feet.
"What I said is true, and Mu Jiu can testify to it. Liu Dafu was so frightened that he kept trembling, and after speaking, he was afraid that Xing Yan would not believe it, so he pointed to Mu Jiu and asked her to testify.
Twilight calls Mu Jiu and asks her what is the matter. Mu Jiu's face turned pale, and he stammered, "I...... I don't know. I just felt that it was strange that the second master had been staying in the room, so I came up and asked the housekeeper. Then there was a sound in the house, and Steward Liu screamed when he went in, and I ...... I followed in, and I saw that the second master was dead. ”
The arrester who inspected the scene came over and said to Xing Yan: "The doors and windows at the scene are closed, and there are no traces of a fight. ”
Murder in a closed room?
Xing Yan frowned, and Qing Yuan, who was inspecting the corpse over there, called, "Senior brother, come here." I have discovered. ”
It turned out that there was a circle of blood marks on Liu Erye's neck. Qing Yuan pointed to the blood stain and said, "It is the same as the Liu family's method of destroying the door!" After finishing speaking, the senior brother and sister looked at Dusun and Qianxing at the same time.
Twilight's face was slightly gloomy. Qianxing's eyes were a little deep.
He arrived, inspected the liquor and performed an autopsy, and concluded that the liquor was non-toxic, and that there were no other wounds on the deceased's body, and that the fatal wound was that the blood in his neck had been severed.
"Yes, it must be absolute!" someone outside the door exclaimed, "Not only did he come to Jindu City, but he also hid in the Moon Fan Workshop...... Among all of us!" caused a wave of panic.
The twilight sun made her eyes look and let the girl of the wooden character soothe everyone.
Mu Yi said: "Did any of you see who entered this room?
There was silence outside for a while, and someone exclaimed: "It's not a person, it's ...... Is it the ghost?"
Immediately afterwards, some people speculated that Liu Erye bought and murdered his brother's family, and the bones were not cold and took away people's business, it must be that Liu Lao turned into a powerful ghost to ask for his life after his death!
The arrester who was present was horrified when he heard it, urging Xing Yan to take the corpse back to the mansion first before making plans. It seems that speculation has become the best explanation for this closed room murder case.
And Duiyang, Qianxing, Xing Yan, and Qingyuan are very clear that Liu Erye died in Xuansihuan. The master of the Xuan Silk Circle is the murderer of the murder case and the secret room murder case.
"Senior brother, what's wrong?" The catch was almost over, and the onlookers were evacuated, but Xing Yan was still in the Guihai private room. Kiyohara walked over and saw him checking the window back and forth.
"Sure enough!" Xing Yan felt an inconspicuous scratch on the window frame.
The silk is as thin as silk, and it has no difficulty passing through the narrow window cracks.
Push open the window, and the night breeze blows. Lingyue upstairs is full of colorful lights, so lively.
