Chapter 32: Everyone Has Secrets
At this time, Lin Xiaoyou saw that Su Yan had already walked to the door of the nunnery, and was about to push the door, but the vermilion gate suddenly opened.
It's strange to say, it should be a place with a pure heart and few desires, but it is repaired like a royal courtyard, and there are big green trees sticking out of the branches and leaves in the high courtyard wall, like a pavilion canopy, which is probably the relationship between the county lord.
A dark shadow flew out of the air, pong! Su Yan's head was smashed.
A wisp of blood quickly slid down his forehead and dripped on the ground, turning into a blood stain.
Su Yan touched his head and didn't react.
"Your Excellency." Zhan Ping'an, who was originally accompanying Lin Xiaoyou, stepped up the high steps after flying a few steps when he saw this, he stood in front of Su Yan with his sword horizontally, and said sharply: "Who dares to sneak attack the county head of Hequan County!" ”
At this time, an old nun slowly walked out of the door, dressed in a wide robe, and she was not surprised to see everyone, and said calmly: "There are distinguished guests from afar, and the small temple is full of light. "I didn't mention the matter of smashing the county master's head at all.
It seems that everything is nothing more than an illusion.
However, this is a royal nunnery, naturally it can't be compared to other places, not that it is stained with dragon qi or soil is also a point of luxury, Su Yan still understands this truth, and picked up the culprit who hit his head from his feet - a copper wooden fish, and arched his hand: "Don't get in the way, don't get in the way, this wooden fish is also related to me, it is really the fate given by the Buddha." Then he tugged into his shirt and walked into the nunnery with a nonchalant face.
Lin Xiaoyou couldn't help but admire his empty glove white wolf trick to collect evidence.
Talking about the Buddha, you have nothing to say, old nun.
Sure enough, the old nun Ren was like a water on the surface, and she couldn't help but have a strange arc at the corner of her mouth, but she was discovered by Lin Xiaoyou, it seems that this nunnery is not a place of cultivation without desire.
After entering, Su Yan opened the sect and said that he was looking for the county lord of good wealth, but he didn't expect the old nun to be hesitant but he refused, Zhan Ping'an took out the sword, and the old woman said that the county lord was in a bad mood today and lost his temper, and the copper wooden fish just now was hers.
Bullying good and fearing evil, Lin Xiaoyou shrugged his shoulders.
Judging from the tone of the old nun, it was obviously a headache for the county lord.
Su Yan was silent for a long time, and said, "It's just right, I'll go and return it to her." ”
"My lord, you don't know that the county lord is powerful, her mother Princess Yong'an is long-sleeved and good at dancing, and she is very good at popularity, but the county lord of good wealth has no mother's demeanor, arrogant and domineering, I can't help her as a principal, you will definitely not see her." It turned out that this nun was the head of the meditation nunnery, and her legal name was Yuanhui.
"Master Yuanhui doesn't have to worry, leave this matter to me." Su Yan looked confident, Lin Xiaoyou thought about it on the side, but he didn't figure out where his confidence came from?
Androgen?
Please, the other party is just a seven-year-old girl.
However, the result surprised her, after reading the small note passed by Mrs. Yuanhui, the county lord of Shancai actually agreed to see Su Yan and his party, but only two people were specified.
As a free labor force and reserve cadre of Hequan County Ya, Lin Xiaoyou was honored to get this opportunity.
It wasn't until the wooden door behind him creaked shut that Lin Xiaoyou had a feeling that he was getting better, and this case was about to begin to show clues.
Because, the murderer of the first case in the original text has a great relationship with the lord of Shancai.
Yes, although this article is not finished, but the first case Lin Xiaoyou knows the plot, the original murderer is the nurse of the lord of Shancai - Helan Clan, because she loves the princess, and Helan is heartbroken for the princess's current nunnery life, thinking that all the fault lies with Princess Yong'an, but after all, the princess is the proud daughter of the sky, and it is not her turn to be an old woman, so she transferred all her anger and malice to the princess's lovers and killed them one by one.
However, Qiu Mingji's death was the result of a combination of long-term poisoning and a certain large dose of poisoning, and Helan did not have this condition.
First, because Qiu Mingji could not have long-term contact with her, and second, she had nothing to do with Du Yuanshan.
Will the murderer be her this time?
It's up to the county lord's answer.
Compared with her flamboyant, generous and charming mother, the appearance of the county lord of Shancai is obviously a little incompatible with the noble atmosphere of the royal family.
She sat on a wooden chair wrapped in a thick purple dress, dignified and quiet, like a flower that blooms but will wither at any time, but has a morbid beauty, her pale skin makes her look like a porcelain doll that can be broken at any time, a handicraft that will fall when blown by the wind, a flower that blooms in a dark and damp place.
For some reason, Lin Xiaoyou's mind remembered the two flowers in the flower pot in the cabin.
Qu wheat and half a lotus.
Regarding the life experience of the county lord, Lin Xiaoyou listened silently on the side and remembered silently, Su Yan chatted with her in detail, and the little girl didn't seem to hate this kind of conversation, maybe it was too lonely, right?
Looking at her slightly upturned lips, it should have been a life like flowers, but she was bound in this green lantern ancient temple, she was unwilling, but resentful?
Occasionally raising her eyes, Lin Xiaoyou looked at her, sometimes even staring at her for a long time, but found that she didn't notice it once.
Is she so indifferent to the outside world?
Then why did you agree to their request, was it loneliness, or something else?
From the conversation, I learned that because the body was not very good since childhood, the county lord suffered from asthma when she was a child, and she often tossed until midnight when she had an attack, and it was sad that the disease entangled her weak body at that time, she developed late, and ordinary children could walk at the age of one or two, and she was only a toddler at the age of three, and later, the princess found her a teacher, that is, the nurse Helan.
It does take a lot of effort to raise such a difficult child, Helan has paid endless efforts, and it can almost be said that he has replaced his mother's position, but after all, outsiders can't compare with his mother, and the county lord is still lonely in his heart, until once the county lord had a high fever, and Princess Yong'an, who was a mother, was too late to rush back from a tryst with her lover by the river, and finally the county lord almost died.
"Do you hate her? In this temple, is it lonely? ”
"Nope." Shancai showed a shallow smile on his face, "It's good for my illness here, in fact, after moving here, my asthma is no longer big, and my mother is still good to me." ”
It's just that the smile doesn't make people feel warm in any way.
"Did your nurse come to see you?"
"No, I haven't seen her since my serious illness." The words were faint, as if he didn't care, but Lin Xiaoyou observed that the county lord's eyes were a little red.
She took a sip of tea and quieted down.
It seems that the rumors are right, the county lord is seriously ill, and he shouted the name of the nurse in a coma, and the county lord of Yongan was furious and immediately expelled the Helan clan, which is also a reason for the Helan clan to retaliate in the original text.
However, now that the cause of Qiu Mingji's death is different, Du Yuanshan has jumped out, and the case is much more complicated.
"Now I'm a lot better and I don't need to be taken care of." As soon as the words fell, the county lord coughed violently, Lin Xiaoyou hurriedly walked over to help her calm down, and the county lord also took out a bag from the placket of his clothes and sniffed it, and quickly calmed down.
She smiled weakly, "I'm sorry for you, I don't usually do this." ”
Looks like an empathetic good boy anyway, would she lie?
"County Lord, in fact, we are here to tell you a piece of news, although it is a bit abrupt, but we feel that we still have to tell you that your father-in-law, Qiu Mingji, was found dead in Lujiao Mountain in Lotus Leaf Village not long ago, and the cause of death was poisoning." Su Yan saw that she calmed down a little and said the purpose of this time. "We want to know who killed him and with whom he has a vendetta, can you tell us?"
Because he didn't know how close the county lord and Qiu Mingji were, Lin Xiaoyou prepared for the worst.
Always be ready.
Unexpectedly, the county lord was stunned for a long time, and then bit his lip: "Is Daddy really dead?" What he said was true. ”
What's going on?
Is it suicide?
