Chapter 430: You Think Too Much
The result of this whole day of sorting out clues was that she followed the vine and finally suspected Mrs. Bi.
"I always felt that he was a mysterious person, even though it didn't seem to be a problem at all.
"I heard that he is sixty-seven years old, so he is about the same age as Wen Chan, and I want to see if I recognize him. ”
"Do you suspect that he is the murderer behind the scenes in the past?" Xiao Huai quickly caught the key to her words and walked in front of her.
Shen Xi didn't speak, but silence meant yes.
So far, she has not seen Mrs. Bi's true face, and her understanding of him is only scratching the surface.
In the past, Daqin had a head and a face, or she had an impression of people who could make enemies with Prince Cheng's mansion.
Bi Taifu Bi Shangyun, this name is completely unfamiliar to her.
But the name can be changed, and his age and the status he has achieved now are in line with the characteristics of the murderer behind the past.
So she had to meet to see if her guess was right.
Xiao Huai didn't ask any more questions, walked to the back of the bookcase and sat down, picked up the paper on the table, dialed it twice, and said: "It's easy to see him, but it's difficult to make him not suspicious."
"He hasn't shown up in recent years, and even when he goes out of the house, he keeps a low profile.
"You and I are not yet married, and if we take you to him suddenly, it will not be polite, and if he is really the murderer you think, he will definitely be suspicious. ”
Shen Xi sat down and poured two cups of jujube tea in a pot.
She knew that there must be difficulty, but it was because of the difficulty that she would come to him.
"Is there really no way?"
Shen Xi raised his head.
He thought for a moment and said, "It's just that I want to see it, and if I can't do it openly, I can also come to the dark."
"However, the defense of the Taifu Mansion is also very strong, even if I take you there, I have to arrange it. ”
"How strict?" Shen Xi said, "Compared to the palace?"
Qi Jiu used to be a palace shadow guard, as long as it was not stricter than the palace, and they didn't plan to make any big moves, they shouldn't be unsure.
"Naturally, it's not as good as in the palace. But since you have doubts, I can't just take you to meet him, but I have to find other flaws.
"So you can't be sloppy. ”
Xiao Huai rubbed his forehead when he said this, and the words at the end were a little vague.
Shen Xi nodded. When he saw that he was rubbing the corners of his forehead, he said, "You have drunk wine, do you want to make decanting soup?" I will go and tell the cook. ”
Xiao Huai shook his head and patted the open space next to him: "It's good to stay with you for a while." I'll send you back when I get back. ”
Shen Xi obediently came over and half-lay down to accompany him to recuperate.
Both of them seemed to have something on their minds.
He clasped his fingers on his abdomen, his eyes closed, and his brow twisted slightly.
After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes again: "Don't think too much.
"Taifu is a scholar, I have never seen him show his martial arts, and it was Li Deng who saved him several times in the past. First of all, this doesn't match your guess.
"Moreover, he is by the side of Li Ind, who has already started a rebellion in Great Qin.
At that time, there were chaotic parties in Jiangxi and Guangxi, and after being suppressed by the imperial court, he only went to Li Ying's complicity when the court situation was relatively stable.
"If he was a murderer, where was he in the intervening years?
"The most important thing is that when Li Deng raised his army, it was more than 20 years ago, when the dynasty was not dead, and many Qin ministers even met him in person.
"But no one has ever said that they know him, let alone that he has anything to do with Prince Cheng's Mansion or the Qin Dynasty clan.
"Do you think you're overthinking?"
Even though Shen Xi had thought about it repeatedly, it was still like pouring cold water on him at this time.
In the past, the people who were able to do so many measures and erase all traces of murder for Wen Chan would definitely not be ordinary people.
And he must have a lot of background. How could such a person be in Jingshi without anyone knowing?
Could it be that she is really going to the doctor in a hurry?
Xiao Huai looked at her listlessly, and regretted saying too directly, reached out and touched her sideburns and said, "Don't worry about so many things first."
"Isn't the affairs of the house plus a school house enough for you to be busy? ”
She sighed and said nothing.
In fact, Xiao Huai didn't drink much, and she didn't want to hurt her confidence.
But if Bi Taifu is really an important person in the previous dynasty, then Shen Xi knows it, and Xu Jing must also know it.
Helan Zhen has seen Mrs. Bi more than once or twice, if she had recognized it, why did she have to wait until she went to see her?
He didn't want her to be in danger in his heart, and decided earlier that this matter would be handled by him and Helan Chen, so after thinking about it, he really didn't plan to take her on an adventure.
The first quarter moon hung low in the sky, reflecting the shimmering waters of the river.
After Helan Chen said goodbye to Xiao Huai, he was not in a hurry to return to the palace.
Instead, he walked his horse along the embankment of the river in a hurry.
When he reached the third circle, the attendant caught up and handed him a roll-up note: "I just received it." ”
He reined in his horse, looked down at the imprint on the paper scroll, unfolded it with his hand at a rapid speed, frowned after reading it, then was silent for a while, and then said, "Is there any other news?"
"No more. The waiter said respectfully.
He was silent for a while, and then said, "Go to Dongyang Street." ”
When the sound of the horses' hooves had faded away, the figure of the big willow tree on the bank of the river turned out, glanced twice at their direction, and then walked quickly in the opposite direction......
When Shen Xi returned to the incense courtyard, Wang'er came in later.
"After the girl went out, the girl let the little starer really go out!
The small one followed for a while, and he went to the Sanqingguan on Beimen Street, but the small one couldn't enter the view, so he didn't stare at what he was doing. ”
"How long have you been there, and when did you come back?" she asked, pausing in the courtyard.
"I went out for an hour. When I went, I didn't go until the end of the day, and when I returned, it was just the end of the day. ”
Shen Xi thought for a moment and said, "Got it." Then he asked, "What about the other people who are going to keep an eye on them?"
Xiao Huai did not come to Shen's house for the next few days.
At first she thought he was really busy, but he had time to pick up snacks for her when he passed by the dim sum shop.
There are also empty people who invite the embroidery lady to come to Shen's house to measure her size and make clothes for the new season.
She felt that if he was so busy that he didn't even have the time to come over and say a few words, then he wouldn't remember this.
It seems that he guessed that he would pester him and take her to see Taifu.
On this day, I went to the Mei family's house to make an appointment.
Shen Xi and Shen Yan were sitting in the same carriage, and Shen Xi remembered this marriage contract in his heart, so he suddenly asked Shen Yan: "Where did you go with Huo Yan that day?"
Shen Yan's face turned red at the mention of this, and she muttered for a long time before saying, "I've gone to his mansion." Said a few words and came back. ”
"Oh, what did you say?" she laughed.
Shen Yan's face turned even redder, but she still told her what she said.
Shen Xi also smiled after hearing this.
After a while, she said again, "That's fine." ”
