Chapter Seventy-Six: Peeling Back the Thread

Seeing that Qi Niang was going out again, Mrs. Ping frowned slightly, and said the words that had been suppressed in her heart for a long time.

"Qi Niang, you are a little lady who has not been out of the cabinet, it is better to show your face less, otherwise it will be difficult to find a good in-law in the future."

Wen Jing heard the meaning of her words, her reputation was bad enough, and she was still running around, didn't it be bad enough?

"If my father is demoted again, where will he come from in the future?" Wen Jing looked up at Mrs. Ping and said.

Everyone's faces were all gloomy, one was prosperous, and one was lost, they naturally understood this truth, and they no longer stopped Wen Jing at the moment.

The old housekeeper prepared the carriage and went to Dali Temple, not far away, a fast horse galloped from a distance, this person was Ji Changge, he saw Wen Jing, and quickly grabbed the reins.

"Stop." Wen Jing shouted and stepped out of the carriage again.

"Seven Ladies, there is a breakthrough, let's go in and talk." Ji Changge's expression was a little surprised, and he didn't wait for her to answer, and went directly into the carriage.

Wen Jing was a little speechless, this person really didn't regard himself as an outsider, but he also silently followed him into the carriage.

Two rosters were placed in front of Wen Jing.

One is the inn check-in book, and the other is the list of Liyuan check-in. The names, none of which overlap, is there to be any surprise about this?

Ji Changge saw her doubts and reached out to point somewhere in the inn book.

"Huang Xinyi?" Wen Jing was still puzzled.

"Huang, Tonghuang, can also be said to be a dragon. Xin Yi, homophonic new clothes, together, is a word. Ji Changge pointed to the list of Liyuan residents, "Here, there is one named Qiu Xian." Scholars like to show off their talents. Playing the word splitting game is a natural expression of the bookish spirit. can't be covered up. ”

Wen Jing is not good at crossword puzzles. So I admired Ji Changge's wit, carefully compared the information of Huang Xinyi and Qiu Xi, and muttered: "The two are almost the same in height, but their physical appearance is different, as you said, this person should have used means to change his appearance, Master Ji, you are so powerful." ”

Ji Changge was very indifferent: "I came to this conclusion in the morning, but." I went to the palace first and met your father. As the chief examiner of the day, he gave an important message very responsibly, the person who lived in the house next to the deceased Su Zi'an was Qiu Xian. ”

In the three cases, the spearhead was all pointed at this Qiu attack.

Ji Changge said: "The township test is divided into three sessions, one every three days, and it can be released after the exam." I have already dispatched the best men of Dali Temple to ambush outside the Tribute Courtyard, and today is the second day. As soon as Qiu Xi leaves the examination room tomorrow, he will arrest people...... Do the math, a few days faster than the estimated time to solve the case. ”

"There won't be any more murders in the Gongyuan, right?" Wen Jing was a little worried.

Ji Changge is very confident: "He won't dare to commit another crime in a short period of time." Rest assured, it's just this day to jump. ”

"Let's talk about Sixi first, why did he go to Tongfu Inn that day?" It is different from the decisiveness of the little grandfather. Wen Jing has different opinions on the investigation of the case and makes bold assumptions. Be careful to verify, this is a habit brought by later generations. You can't let go of a bad person, and you can't wronged a good person.

Sixi was not suspicious, but he went to the Tongfu Inn and returned late, which is a little suspicious.

Although she is a little biased towards Sixi in her heart, with Wen Jing's character, she can't turn a blind eye.

"Sixi has been in a coma, and I haven't had time to ask yet." Ji Changge also didn't understand, but all the doubts had to wait for Sixi to come to his senses.

Wen Jing nodded: "I still have to go to Dali Temple to see if he wakes up, and change the medicine for him by the way." ”

"Hmm." Ji Changge hummed and agreed.

Wen Jing threw a puzzled look at him, and said in his heart, after the words are finished, are you still in the car and not leaving?

"You said the horse." Ji Changge suddenly came to his senses, "Then Ma, just stay in your mansion first, I'll come back another day to get it." Well, Qi Niang, let's continue to imagine, why did Sixi go to the inn......"

The space on the carriage was already narrow, and in the face of the face that was close at hand, Wen Jing felt a little embarrassed, and forced himself to settle down, didn't there be nothing between them for a long time, and replied calmly at the moment: "Lord Ji has doubts in his heart, and Qi Niang should cooperate with the answer." ”

"Old butler, let's get in the car." A faint smile appeared on the corner of Grandpa Ji's mouth, I don't know when he began to get used to solving cases with Wen Jing, with his experience and intelligence, he didn't necessarily need Wen Jing's help. However, if Wen Jing had not been involved in solving the case, he would always feel that something was missing.

Is it just for business? Ji Changge was a little skeptical while affirming.

……

The carriage stopped in front of Dali Temple.

"The boundary of Dali Temple, idlers should not approach!" The guards guarding the door were about to drive people away, and when they saw Ji Changge coming up, they swallowed what they were about to say.

The two walked into Dali Temple, and Wen Jing went directly to see Sixi.

Maybe it was because of the excessive torture, so Sixi still didn't wake up, but the injury recovered quickly, which shows that he is in good health. Wen Jing also breathed a sigh of relief, if Sixi was disabled, she would not only feel guilty in her heart, but also unable to give Wang Jue an explanation.

Ji Changge watched her change the dressing for Sixi and cover the quilt, and couldn't help but say more: "The Seventh Lady takes care of her so carefully, is she afraid of the blame of the lame Wang Jue?" ”

Wen Jing was about to answer, when the door of the room was pushed open by Ding Wu.

"Go out and say." Ji Changge waved his hand.

The three of them walked out of the room together.

"My lord, there is news from the Tongfu Inn, and the subordinates in charge of monitoring found that Qian Jiaojiao left the inn and lingered at the back door of the palace for a while before leaving in disappointment." Ding Wu said simply.

"It's really a big progress, the back door of the palace is the carp garden. This Qian Jiaojiao, I'm afraid it has something to do with the people in the carp garden. Ji Changge stroked his palms and smiled, "Where is the brother who found out about this now?" ”

Ding Wudao: "He came out to buy food under the pretext, and in order not to make the money shopkeeper suspicious, he has already returned to the inn." ”

"Then go to the inn again, Seventh Lady, do you want to come along?" Ji Changge tentatively invited.

Wen Jing naturally would not refuse, she also had doubts about this Qian Jiaojiao, she always felt that that woman was not so simple, and she seemed to be hiding something that she didn't want people to know.

……

In the Tongfu Inn, the money shopkeeper had an angry face and paced back and forth with his hands behind his back.

"Jiaojiao, do you really take your father's words as the wind in your ears? Now at this critical juncture, what carp garden to go to, if it is discovered by the people of Dali Temple, what should I do? The money shopkeeper lowered his voice, and his fat face was full of sweat.

"Dad, I can't rest assured." Qian Jiaojiao pinched the corners of her clothes, and her voice was like a mosquito.

The shopkeeper continued to keep a straight face, and whispered: "What's not to worry about, besides, he is now on a scientific expedition and will only come out tomorrow, what's the use of you going to Liyuan today?" ”

"Dad, I know I'm wrong." Qian Jiaojiao looked like she wanted to say something, but she didn't say it after all.

With a bang, the door shattered.

"Money shopkeeper, what secrets are you talking about, so happy, are you interested in telling me about it?" Ding Wu walked in with a cold face, and standing outside the door were Ji Changge and Wen Jing. (To be continued......)
