However, the corners of her mouth curled in a moment, and she thought to herself: "It's okay, hum! "It has been fifteen years since she came to another world, and in the past, she was extremely simple and rigid, everything was done according to the regulations, completely based on science and reason, but she grew up in this other world, but she did not have the same board and vision as before. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

At this time, Steward Liu hurriedly came and stood beside Xue Ningqing with a bow: "County Lord...... The villain just heard about ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Xue Ningqing immediately stood up and pulled him to a low-level beast fruit tree not far away, and whispered for a long time.

In the end, Steward Liu raised his sleeve and wiped his forehead, his face looked very solemn: "County Lord...... Wouldn't it be too ...... to do that?"

Xue Ningqing's face was calm, and he said decisively: "It's okay, I'll take care of it if something happens." Just do it. ”

When the moon rises in the western sky, that is, in the second half of the night, many subordinates and generals have gathered here, and the voices of discussion come and go.

After a while, the official messenger also came to the mansion, and he followed a pretending person, constantly checking in front of Lianyue's body.

Xue Ningqing stood in front of the crowd with a pair of arms and looked at him coldly, with a mysterious smile on his lips.

Just as he was about to wrap up the body and take it away, a female subordinate of some age rushed out of the crowd, and as soon as she rushed out, she shouted to the official: "Adults, go slowly, I know who killed Lianyue!" ”

One of the leading officials turned to the female subordinate who came and asked in a deep voice, "Oh? Who is it? ”

The female subordinate raised a finger and pointed to the figure of a woman in the crowd: "It's Qingyun!" It's Qingyun who had a lot of trouble with her before Lianyue died! ”

Everyone's eyes instantly looked at the woman named Qingyun, only to see that Qingyun put his hands in his waist and snorted: "Good you stinky woman!" Don't frame good people here, aren't you just because you owe me a dozen silver coins and can't pay the profit, so you frame me here! ”

The woman's eyes were blazing, and she gritted her teeth and said: "It's not you, who else, I was watching when Lianyue talked to you that day, Lianyue said that she knew about your stealing of the beast fruit, and she said that she would expose you in public, so you cleverly pulled her into the gang, saying that she would share the money from selling the beast fruit with her!" But she scolded you for being bloody! Later, you changed your story and said that there is an old mother in your family, and you can't bear to have no one to take care of your mother, so let her let you turn yourself in, maybe you won't be sent to the official, even if you are kicked out, you can take care of your old mother. ”

At this time, Qingyun panicked, and a pair of small feet were unstable, and his whole body trembled a little: "You...... You don't want to spew blood! ”

"The sky is visible! I'm telling the truth! Later, I followed her to see how she turned herself in, because I wanted to see her turn herself in! Unexpectedly, she secretly entered Lianyue's room and poisoned Lianyue's room! ”

Qingyun trembled, his eyes flashed with horror, but he was still stiff: "You...... You dead mother-in-law, you slander me here, but you say, how did I poison me? ”

"I saw you sprinkle a bottle of poison powder on Lianyue's washbasin!" This sentence penetrated Qingyun's ears like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, and her hands on her waist suddenly softened, a little overwhelmed, I didn't know where to put it, it looked very awkward, and finally covered her face with both hands, pretending to cry, but the accusation of the whistleblower continued, "At that time, there was no water in Lianyue's basin, and Qingyun even stretched out a hand and wiped the poisonous powder on the washbasin through the handkerchief, and later sprinkled some on the cotton towel for washing his face!" I didn't know what it was, I didn't know it was poison powder until Lianyue disappeared, and I didn't know it today! Lianyue, I'm sorry for you! That's right! It was after this that you were the one who found out that Lianyue was gone, and then you were the first person to spread the rumor that Lianyue was stealing and absconding. ”

"You...... What proof do you have for this! ”

At this time, another housekeeper's mother stood up and said coldly: "If you want to know if what she said is true, you just need to find the washbasin of Lianyue at that time." After Lianyue absconded, the basin happened to be kept in the steward's office, and it was said that it was a washbasin used by sinners, and no girl was willing to use it, so it has been kept until now. If it's really poisonous, then what she said is true! Qingyun, tell your mother honestly, did you go back to wash that basin at the end? ”

Qingyun's face was stunned at this time, but he also quickly bit back and said, "You! I think you killed Lianyue yourself! You did all this yourself, and now you say I did it to protect yourself! ”

Xue Ningqing couldn't stand it anymore, and said directly in a loud voice: "Whoever wants to kill has a motive, you two are now suspects, check all the storage necklaces and storage rings on your bodies, and see who is the one who stole the beast fruit." As for the basin, as long as you ask the prayer mage in the temple to cast a spell to look at the breath of life on it, you can know who has touched the basin, and you can even detect the breath of life of the person who poisoned it! ”

Qingyun's eyes showed unconcealed fear, and there was no other excuse, his eyes looked at Xue Ningqing fixedly, and then he cried out and sat down on the ground: "Woo woo!" I was going to wash the basin, but I forgot to wash it! ”

A very boring look flashed in Xue Ningqing's eyes, the breath of life was all a lie she made up, but it was an indisputable fact that the basin had been preserved to this day, and as for this witness, of course, it was the most gossip elder in the mansion that she asked the housekeeper to find. Having said that, if Qingyun really washed the basin, it wouldn't matter, this world has a powerful non-materialistic supernatural power, and the words are both on Xue Ningqing's lips! The important thing is to make Qingyun believe that her actions have really been witnessed, so that this can hit her heart.

At this time, she had a sneer on her lips and snorted: "That's because you are not a real paranoid person, the exhaustion and another kind of excitement after this series of crimes is to do the crime of Lianyue absconding, the first crime, only this one mistake, that is no longer an ordinary criminal!" Hehe! It's really boring! After sneering enough, she stepped out and said to the official: "Lord Guancha, since Qingyun has confessed, let's take her back quickly, it's getting late, and the people in the mansion will have to do things tomorrow!" ”

Steward Liu walked to Xue Ningqing's side, raised his sleeves and wiped his forehead, and said in a low voice: "County Lord, how did you know in advance that Qingyun was the murderer?" ”

Xue Ningqing smiled bitterly: "I don't know that Qingyun is the murderer, I only know what the murderer should be like, whoever is like this is the murderer." ”

The housekeeper has long heard people talk about the county lord, and they all say that the county lord has the wisdom of being a witch, who is in their respective families, and what special things they experienced when they were children, even if they have never talked about it with anyone, the county lord can know it, and now under the witness of his own eyes, he is very ashamed in his heart, and he is glad that he has been loyal to the Lord all his life and has not done anything unseemly.

The official shouted at Qingyun and said, "Hurry up!" He stretched out an arm to pull her up from the ground.

At this moment, Xue Ningqing felt a trace of cold wind blowing, like a thin air current, in the blink of an eye, a silver-blue arc crossed the air, this arc was both fast and weird, as if it was spinning in a circle when advancing in the air, Xue Ningqing was just about to make a move, but the silver-blue arc suddenly accelerated halfway, and directly hit Qingyun's throat, only to hear a rapid inhalation sound, as if a bellows had a breath of gas, Qingyun had a dart in his throat, his eyes turned to the top of his head, and he fell to the ground head-on, immediately cut off his breath.

Xue Ningqing's body rushed and jumped towards the place where the dart came from, but he was a step too late, and another dart flew out again a few feet away, this time it was towards the person who pointed at Qingyun, and it was the same arc, and it hit the target directly, and the person was also killed on the spot.

Xue Ningqing saw a figure flashing a few feet away, and when he chased over, there was nothing around.

The subordinates here suddenly made a mess of rats, and under the screams, they rushed to their respective resting places. "Kill!" Kill! The cry resounded through the walls.

Xue Ningqing roared: "Quick! Go to the house and find someone with the skin of a beast to keep out the cold! ”

The housekeeper held his head and didn't dare to slack off, and shouted: "You guys, go and see whose house has animal skins?" Just go! ”

When several generals were carrying knives, they quickly followed their subordinates to their rooms to investigate.

The official with the sword in his hand on the side looked at Xue Ningqing and asked, "County Lord, what does this mean?" ”

Xue Ningqing explained with a calm eyebrow: "This person's dart draws circles in the air, if it is an ordinary assassin, specially designed to take people's lives, and pay attention to hitting the target directly under training, this person's two darts are on the same trajectory, it should be a habit formed when a hunter grew up in the mountains, and when he was hindered by grass and trees in the mountains, hunting small prey such as jackals and foxes." Moreover, this dart is hung with blue cloth tassels, these tassels are not decoration, they are used to stabilize the dart in the wind for balance, your lord, if you check the tassels on the two murder weapons, you will find that these cloth strips are tied in the same way, each hunter has his own specific binding method, this is the mark of the murderer! If the murderer has not escaped for the time being, if he can get his other darts, then this method of binding is the basis for the conviction! If you are a hunter, you must have something like animal skin with you to keep out the cold! ”

Steward Liu interjected: "Orion? A year ago, someone came to Fuchu, who used to be a hunter in the mountains...... It was a young man, about twenty-four or five years old this year, and his name seemed to be ...... Zhao Tie, right! It's called Zhao Tie! ”

"Steward Liu, that Zhao Tie is most likely a pseudonym, I think it should be Lianyue's cousin. Judging from the style of Zhao Tie's shot, he must have escaped, at least he will not appear in the mansion again. It's just that a sister who is making a play died in vain...... Death in vain...... Death in vain? Thinking of this, Xue Ningqing's mind flashed into his mind, and he thought, "Yes, since even this person who testified will not let go, how can he ignore Lianyue's body?" Pregnant! ”

At this time, Xue Ningqing leaned into the official's ear and whispered again.

I saw that the official's eyes flickered, showed a smile, and hugged his fist towards Xue Ningqing and said: "County Lord, according to what you say, we won't search the mansion again today, and it's not good to disturb the princess's rest!" But I still have to ask the county lord to go back with me and record a confession. What do you think? ”

Xue Ningqing said boldly: "Okay! Let's go! ”

The official shouted: "Go!" Brothers! Carrying the three corpses, let's go back to the yamen! ”

A few people took advantage of the night to get out of the Ten Princes' Mansion, and every household on the bluestone road in the city was closed, and there was no one.

Xue Ningqing walked ahead with the people from the government, but she didn't notice it, and at a distance of fifty zhang behind her, a figure as agile as a night cat followed all the way in the direction she was walking.

When they came to the gate of the yamen, the official at the head shouted: "You guys, carry the newly dead into the yamen, this dried corpse...... Let's take it to Yizhuang! lest the yamen stink on the ground. ”

So, the two officials carried Lianyue's dried corpse all the way to Yizhuang.
