Chapter 252: The Mandarin Duck in Fire (3)
It turned out that Lin Jiashu and Qiu Chenghuan met for the first time during such a Qixi Festival, but at that time, the two were only eight years old, and the two families also intended to get engaged to the two of them. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The head of the Qiu family in Jiangnan, that is, Qiu Chenghuan's father, came to Kyoto to do business and brought Qiu Chenghuan with him.
Because he came to do something, Qiu Chenghuan's father didn't plan to go to the Lin family, but just found an inn in Kyoto.
Who knew that he met Lin Jiashu and Lin Jiashu's father.
At that time, Lin Jiashu followed behind his father and watched the brilliant lights of Kyoto.
Qiu Chenghuan's father didn't see them, but Qiu Chenghuan saw them and said to his father: "Dad, isn't that Uncle Lin?" ā
As he spoke, Qiu Chenghuan took off the leaf vein mask on his face.
Lin Jiashu said that he was still wondering how a little girl could buy such a strange mask.
Qiu Chenghuan really liked the mask, even if he took it off, he kept holding it and didn't let go, Lin Jiashu said that it was the first time they met.
On the Qixi Festival, there was also that top mask, so he recognized it.
Yu Chusheng couldn't figure it out, according to Lin Jiashu, the mask should be Qiu Chenghuan's, but why did she come here with such a mask?
Moreover, Yu Chusheng saw the shallow strangulation marks on Lin Jiashu's face, and he must have worn a mask before this.
In addition, when Lin Jiashu told about this incident when he was a child, he lied, and Yu Chusheng saw it.
In this mask, there must be a story. Although Lin Jiashu looks extremely sad and looks real, Yu Chusheng always feels that it is still not right.
Why didn't Lin Jiashu care who the man who was burned to death with Qiu Chenghuan?
The most wrong thing is Cai Wei, according to her, her relationship with Qiu Chenghuan is very good, but between the words, Yu Chusheng clearly heard the meaning of disgust and hatred.
Yu Chusheng glanced up at Cai Wei again, the girl's face was dry tears, but the eyes looking at the corpse seemed to be acting.
Interesting.
Yu Chusheng asked casually: "Cai Wei, you really don't know this mask?" "It's obviously Qiu Chenghuan's favorite mask, how could she not know it.
Cai Wei half-lowered her head and hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "Actually, I know." But he hid it.
Yu Chusheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Then why are you lying and saying you don't know?" ā
Cai Wei glanced at Lin Jiashu and said, "I'm afraid that you will suspect our young master." The expression on Lin Jiashu's face did not change.
What does it have to do with Lin Jiashu? Yu Chusheng was a little confused.
Cai Wei lowered her head and said: "The young master is a good person, although I am a maid who came to marry, but I see it in my eyes, the young master is very good to Madame, so I don't want you to misunderstand." ā
Yu Chusheng nodded and motioned for her to continue.
Cai Wei continued: "Our young lady has liked this mask for a long time, in fact, it is also because of the young master. ā
Yu Chusheng frowned, didn't he say that Qiu Chenghuan and Lin Jiashu first met when they were eight years old? At that time, Qiu Chenghuan brought a leaf vein mask.
Cai Wei glanced at Lin Jiashu and lowered her head again.
Yu Chusheng saw the curvature of the corner of Cai Wei's mouth, and when he lowered his head, he gently hooked it.
Yu Chusheng asked: "Could it be that your young lady has known Lin Jiashu for a long time?" "There's only one possibility.
Cai Wei raised her head, still pear blossoms with rain, but her expression was very flat, and said, "When my young lady was five years old, she followed her father and mother to Kyoto Lin Mansion. ā
Lin Jiashu didn't speak, just glanced at Cai Wei deeply.
Yu Chusheng felt that there seemed to be a greasy relationship between the two people, and it didn't look like a master-servant relationship at all.
Cai Wei looked at the Ye Vein Mask in Yu Chusheng's hand, and continued: "She went to the garden of the Lin Mansion to play alone, but she was scared away by the wild cat on the wall, ran too quickly, fell again, and cried. ā
Since then, Qiu Chenghuan has remembered Lin Jiashu.
Yu Chusheng listened quietly, and also observed Cai Wei's expression.
She didn't lie, but from time to time she would look at Lin Jiashu out of the corner of her eye. Yu Chusheng also went to see Lin Jiashu, but the man tightened his chin, pursed his lips, and did not speak.
Cai Wei continued: "My young lady also asked, why have you never seen such a mask, the young master said that it was made by a subordinate in the house, and the young master gave the mask to the young lady, and the young lady liked it very much. ā
After listening to this, Yu Chusheng suddenly asked: "Didn't you say that you didn't know this mask because you were afraid that we would suspect Lin Jiashu?" Why are you afraid? ā
Cai Wei said: "Because a few days ago, I went to the street with my wife, and I saw that there were also people buying leaf vein masks on the street, and my wife bought one, saying that she wanted to give it to her sweetheart, I think Mrs. gave it to the young master, so I ...... it."
It turned out that this was the case, if she said that she recognized this mask, Yu Chusheng and they would definitely ask her how she knew her, and it would be on Lin Jiashu.
But listening to what Lin Jiashu said, this mask is not his.
Before Yu Chusheng could ask, Lin Jiashu explained by himself: "Although I know the Yevein mask, Cheng Huan didn't give me this mask, so it wasn't given to me." I also saw the Ye Vein mask on the street a few days ago, and I specially bought it, and I wanted to give it to Cheng Huan tonight, but I didn't expect ......"
As he spoke, Lin Jiashu beckoned, followed his little servant over, and unfolded the big handkerchief he was holding, and it was indeed a leaf vein mask inside, although the two masks were different, but they looked similar.
Lin Jiashu paused and continued: "I just wore this mask to surprise Cheng Huan, but I didn't expect ......."
Qiu Chenghuan bought the leaf vein mask and said that he wanted to give it to his sweetheart, but he didn't give it to Lin Jiashu, it should have been given to the man who was burned to death with Qiu Chenghuan.
On that man's face, it is obvious that there is indeed a mask, but is it Qiu Chenghuan's farewell?
Lin Jiashu also bought a leaf vein mask and wanted to give it to Qiu Chenghuan, but there was such an accident.
However, where did this leaf vein mask that was left behind at the scene come from?
Since Qiu Chenghuan and Lin Jiashu have such a good relationship, why was Qiu Chenghuan burned to death here with another man?
Could it be that Qiu Chenghuan and the male deceased were martyred? This is unlikely.
Judging from the scene, it doesn't look like a self-immolation, but like a murderer arranged it.
Yu Chusheng asked almost everything he should have asked at the scene, and asked Cai Wei again, many people said that Qiu Chenghuan stepped on two boats, and there was no evidence.
There is no evidence. But someone in the house said that one day in the middle of the night, Qiu Chenghuan was seen hugging a man in black in the garden.
