Qi Xiangsi raised his head to look at him, his expression was still indifferent, as if he was asking, but he didn't care what she said.

Qi Xiangsi smiled, lowered his head and gently pulled his clothes, and his tone was very relaxed: "Didn't the prince see it, I came to kill someone." ”

Yan Congyu stared at her and said in a half-loud voice: "You went to the yamen." ”

"yes, you have to follow him first and know where he has gone before you can do it." Qi Xiangsi had a smile on her face even more, completely different from the panic when he found her in the alley, Yan Congyu was not a curious person, but the various signs of this person in front of him were difficult not to guess.

Although the background is not a famous family, it is also everyone, to say that the additional experience is to live in Huizhou to the age of twelve was taken back to Kyoto, she understands pharmacology, decisive, and even knows how to survive in the wild, in the palace she secretly went to the hospital to be bumped into by herself, and also stole the brand back in front of her as if nothing happened, and now, she actually appeared in Yongzhou South County, which is so far away from Kyoto.

went to kill people ruthlessly, but after killing people, he was afraid.

Yan Congyu has never been a person who likes to go around the bend, he looked at her indifferently: "What is your relationship with the Qi family." ”

The smile on Qi Xiangsi's face gradually subsided, he was really outside the house at that time, what did she say to Brother Hai at that time.

Qi Xiangsi lowered her eyes and thought slowly, and she didn't know how long she thought about it, she raised her head and asked him: "The little prince has paid a lot of attention to this, shouldn't this be the official matter?" ”

Yan Congyu's brows furrowed again, she still didn't admit it, he obviously heard her mention the Qi family.

"Four years ago, there was a big murder in Nanxian County, dozens of members of the Qi family were killed overnight, and the house burned by fire was completely destroyed, and the people inside were almost unable to tell who it was." Qi Xiangsi propped up the edge of the bed with both hands, and his feet fell to the ground and shook slightly, "The county government has never solved the case faster, a vendetta is decided, such a big thing, little prince, have you heard of it?" ”

She looked at him with wide eyes, her tone sounded relaxed, but it was full of sarcasm, local affairs have always been on par with the imperial court, four years, could it be that he came for the Qi family's case? Qi Xiangsi didn't believe it.

Yan Congyu didn't ignore her sarcastic eyes, he didn't know the reason for the Qi family's affairs four years ago, and he couldn't make a judgment, but he was sure of one thing, and being able to stab a person so much shows how much she hated: "What is the relationship between you." ”

"It's okay." Qi Xiangsi looked at him calmly, "If you want to talk about the relationship, you can't look past me, the road is uneven and pulls out a knife to help, sometimes when God is unfair, there are always some people who come out to do chivalrous righteousness, little prince, don't you say?" ”

Yan Congyu didn't speak, the meaning of the eyes was also obvious, she was talking nonsense, Qi Xiangsi simply played a scoundrel, and asked him with a smile: "Little prince, it's getting late, isn't it time to rest?" ”

Yan Congyu found that her feet hanging on the edge of the bed were exposed with small fingertips under the cover of the wide trouser tube, and with her swaying movements, the retreating trouser tube revealed half a white and slender foot, and his face sank.

At this time, the jade came up with the noodles, and the outside was divided by Lu Qin, and the jade inside served two bowls, and when he just put down the table and asked the little prince if he sat down to eat a little, there was a gust of wind beside him, and the little prince left the house.

"Girl, do you want to send it to the little prince outside?" Jade looked outside, the guards didn't eat, and the little prince shouldn't have eaten either.

"He won't eat it, so it's a waste to give it to him." Qi Xiangsi got out of bed and walked to the table to eat noodles, motioned for Jade to close the door, and asked her softly, "Everything is packed, what about the carriage?" ”

"It's all done, I was brought while I was waiting for the girl." Seeing that she was in a hurry, Jade poured water for her, "Girl, slow down." ”

"Wait until you pack up your things and leave at dawn." Qi Xiangsi gulped and drank a big mouthful of noodle soup, she had to stay away from the little prince, the farther away the better

The smell of chicken soup wafted from the corridor outside, and a few guards quickly finished their noodles and continued their vigil in the corridor.

Lu Qin walked into the prince's guest room, and Yan Congyu was sitting there, with an open letter in front of him.

Lu Qin put down a bowl of noodles in a special porcelain bowl, and put chopsticks on the plate on the side: "Master, you eat first." ”

Seeing the chicken soup Yan Congyu thought of the person next door, and pretended to be stupid in front of him, this is the second time.

After eating some noodles briefly, Yan Congyu flipped through a few letters on the table, he arrived in Nanxian County late last night, and all the way over was only the news of these letters.

After arriving in Nanxian County, he also saw the county government selling the house of the Qi family with great fanfare, and the Nine Emperor Brothers said that this was a point, and he went out to check for a long time in the afternoon, but did not find any useful clues.

Either the imperial brother miscalculated, or it was hidden deeply, a small Nanxian County, and there was nothing unusual about it.

Yan Congyu then heard what Qi Xiangsi had said, and he looked up at Lu Qin: "Four years ago, what case did the Qi family have." ”

Lu Qin knows the character of his master, and since he wants to listen to it, he must be detailed: "My subordinates will inquire tomorrow." ”

Yan Congyu continued to read the two letters below, and at this time the night was very deep, and Nanxian outside the window was quiet in the night.

Soon there was a sound of beating outside, which had never been heard in the palace on weekdays, and it was very clear to hear it at this time, from far and near and then far, and after a long time, it was the second watch.

There was some noise in the quiet street market on the fourth watch, at this time the east gradually revealed the white belly of the fish, the sky was gray, there were already many people rushing to the market outside the county, pushing the cart and carrying the burden, and several steamed bun shops in the county town had also opened their doors at this time, ready to do business.

Yan Congyu looked up at the window with some bright light, and suddenly, there was a slight noise next door.

As if deliberately suppressing the sound, he walked over the floor, and after a while, a very soft sound of the door opening was heard.

Yan Congyu looked at the wall of the partition, and soon the guards outside the door came to report, and Miss Qi quietly left from the back of the inn with the maid.

"Lord Wang, do you want to stop them?" Anyway, he received a bowl of noodles from others, the guard looked at the master carefully, Yan Congyu glanced at him lightly, and the guard was suddenly in awe-inspiring spirits, pretending not to say anything, and went out.

Lu Qin changed a cup of hot tea for him, walked out of the window and looked, if it was still early today, Miss Qi and they were in too much of a hurry, and it was not safe for the two girls to go back on the road like this, so he turned around and asked: "Lord Wang, do you want to send someone to send them." ”

"Not necessarily." Yan Congyu put the written letter into the envelope and handed it to him, "You go to Zhuzhou." ”

Qi Xiangsi, who left from the inn, finally breathed a sigh of relief when he walked to the county gate, there happened to be a bun shop next to it, Qi Xiangsi asked Jade to buy some dry food to eat on the road, and then two people who rushed to the morning market came to the shop to drink soy milk and talked about the murder in the tavern yesterday.

"Don't look at the cloth, the death is miserable, listen to my brother-in-law who is on an errand in the yamen, there are more than a dozen wounds, and the most fatal knife directly pierced the throat, tsk, the murderer is really cruel."

"It's not that the murder weapon was grabbed by another person."

"My brother-in-law and their errand boys were so busy that they didn't come home last night, and there were two people in a room, and one died, so who else could kill them."

Qi Xiangsi's expression was slightly condensed, and the two chattering people noticed her and Yushi, and said out of kindness: "Girl, it's not peaceful in the county these days, don't come out so early." ”

"Thank you two big brothers for reminding me." Qi Xiangsi grabbed the jade and left the bun shop quickly, "Let's go." ”

Jade found the coachman waiting there and helped her into the carriage: "Don't worry, girl. ”

How could she not be in a hurry, the fatal knife that the two people said just now was not stabbed by her, and besides, the sword fell to the ground when she left, how could it be in the hands of another person.

Someone mended the knife and cleaned up the scene after she left, and Qi Xiangsi did not hesitate to see the figure of the little prince.

"He doesn't look like such a nosyman." Qi Xiangsi was a little worried in his heart, he didn't send someone to stop him, he shouldn't have cared about this matter, Qi Xiangsi shook his head, no, it's better to get as far away from him as possible, "Let the carriage hurry up." ”

When I came, it took a lot of hard work, and it only took seven days when I went back, and it happened to be in the afternoon when I arrived outside Huizhou City, Qi Xiangsi went up the mountain from the path, went around the back of the road to the back of the meditation room, opened the window, and was supported by jade into the meditation room.

Mother Zhang and Lianxin, who were guarding outside, heard the noise coming from inside at the same time, Zhang's mother quickly got up and rushed towards the door, and Lianxin stepped to stop her: "Mother Zhang, what are you going to do." ”

It has been ten ** days, Zhang's mother's patience has long been exhausted, two days ago she has tried to break into the house to see, but was stopped by Lianxin, today there is a commotion in the house again, Zhang's mother can't sit still, she has to go in to see.

"Even if the girl blames me, I'll bear it." Mother Zhang pushed away the lotus heart, and she had long been suspicious of the voice that came out every once in a while, if she found out that the girl was not in the house, see what else they had to say this time!

"Mother Zhang, the master has said that it will be fine in a few days."

"Shut up!" Mother Zhang scolded Lianxin sharply, grabbed her outstretched hand and pinched it hard, "You will feel good then!" ”

Lian burst into tears in distress, her heart was anxious, she remembered Sister Yushi's previous instructions, her heart closed her eyes, and she rushed over directly to protect Zhang's mother's waist: "Mother Zhang, if you go in like this, the girl's efforts have been in vain these days, you can't go in." ”

Zhang's mother couldn't push her away, so she simply let her hold it like this, and reached out and pushed the door open.

Lianxin looked at the room through the yellow curtain, grabbed Zhang's mother harder with both hands, and made it hard: "Mother Zhang, you can't go in." ”

Zhang's mother showed a victorious smile on her face, there was no one in the empty room, hum, and dared to deceive her for so many days, she reached out and broke the lotus heart hard, rushed over and opened the yellow curtain, after seeing the situation inside, the smile on Zhang's mother's face gradually solidified.

Qi Xiangsi sat cross-legged in a black Zen robe, with an open scripture book on the low table in front of her, Jade knelt behind her, and sandalwood incense was lit on the stove on the side, because she suddenly opened the yellow curtain, causing the fireworks in the incense burner caused by the wind to blow in the direction.

Because of her sudden intrusion, Qi Xiangsi and Jade both looked at her, Qi Xiangsi's posture was still in the action of turning the scriptures, with the sound of a page turning over, the expression on Qi Xiangsi's face turned from peaceful to gloomy, and his tone was angry: "Who let you in." ”

"Girl, I" Zhang's mother was stunned, this was different from what she thought, she subconsciously looked inside again, "I'm too worried about the girl, I haven't seen you for so many days, I'm afraid that something will happen to you." ”

Qi Xiangsi's eyes flashed with fierceness: "Get out." ”

Zhang's mother felt embarrassed, she was a person sent by her wife, how could the fifth girl tell her to get out, so her tone was also a little aggressive: "Madame told the girl to stay here for half a month before she went back, it's been more than 20 days, the girl hasn't left, and it's not easy to explain at that time, and I haven't seen the girl for so many days, which will inevitably cause people to worry." ”

"Lianxin, go and call Lin for them, pack up for Zhang's mother, and send her back to Kyoto immediately." In Zhang's mother's shocked expression, Qi Xiangsi looked at her word by word, "If she refuses to leave, she will tie me up and send it back." ”

"I've been sent by my wife to take care of you, so you can't do that to me." Lianxin dragged Zhang's mother out, and when she arrived at the door, she couldn't drag it, Zhang's mother's physique was so strong, so Lianxin tried to hook the pillar behind her head to add strength to herself, who wanted to slip under her feet, and pinned it directly to Zhang's mother's feet.

I only heard an ouch, Zhang's mother, who was pinned by a kick, was too heavy, stumbled and fell down the steps directly, rolled in a circle on the spot, and crashed into the edge of the garden in the yard.

"Oh my legs, oh my back."

Lianxin was busy helping people, but where could she help her, at this time the jade came out, went to the temple and called the nursing home to come in, carried Zhang's mother out, and sent her back to Huizhou City.

The door in the meditation room slowly closed, Qi Xiangsi untied the Zen clothes, and there was no time to change the clothes inside, at this time a man came out of the corner, and Qi Xiangsi threw him a money bag: "The rest of the silver, come back a few days early, those are more for you." ”

The man took it with a smile, but it was Qi Xiangsi's voice that spoke: "The girl is polite." ”
