Chapter Sixty-Seven: Caught in the Trap
"Brother Jiang, why are you here? Do you remember the red face? Xiao Yin saw that Jiang Shuihan didn't have time to be happy, so she was pulled by the little hairpin on the side, and when she came back to her senses, she hurriedly followed Shangguan Xian forward.
Seeing this, Jiang Shuihan smiled helplessly, "Xiao'er, don't make trouble, the Ninth Prince already knows your identity." ”
Xiao Yin was stunned when she heard this, and then glared at Nan Fengli, "You already know?" It's fun to be playing tricks on me for so long? ”
Nan Fengli couldn't help laughing, "Don't make trouble, whether you are Hongyan or Xiao Yin, it is the same for me." It's messy enough now, can you settle my account in the future? ”
Full of spoiling, Xiao Yin didn't know how to react, this play... Isn't it true?
"Since the prince knows that Hongyan is Xiao Yin, shouldn't he be polite to the wife of this sect master?"
"I haven't gotten married yet, Mrs. He said that Sect Master Chu is probably too anxious."
"Whether you are anxious or not, Chu knows more than the prince."
"The authorities are confused, but the bystanders are clear."
"I'm afraid that the prince is in a situation and doesn't know it, but don't look at the puzzle of others." Chu Luo smiled brightly.
"I hope so." Nanfeng Li is also full of laughter.
"Ahem-" Jiang Shui said coldly, "Everyone, should we let these things go first?" What is the current situation, can the owner of Shangguan Village tell me more about it? ”
Shangguan Xian responded, "This is natural, please also ask the inner hall of the Jiang Palace Master, let's talk as we walk." ”
"So, at the time of the incident, you were all sitting in the front hall, and only Situ Rui was the first to find out that the owner of Situ Zhuang had been killed?"
"Yes." Shangguan Xian nodded.
"Situ Rui, did you find your father hanging from a tree when he was already hanging?"
"Yes, I didn't find him in my father's yard, so I looked around. By the time I found him, he was..."
Jiang Shuihan looked at Situ Rui, who was crying silently, and nodded slowly, "Now it seems that the most likely suspect is indeed Brother Chu, but because it is too obvious, it is difficult for people not to think about whether there is anyone to blame." ”
"Jiang Palace Master! Don't help Chu Luoxian just because you have a good relationship with him! "Hundreds of miles back to the clouds, full of indignation.
Jiang Shuihan smiled slightly, "Master Shangguan, since you have entrusted this matter to Jiang, does it mean that you have full trust in you?" ”
"That's natural, the master of the Jiang Palace, in terms of martial arts, character, and resourcefulness, there is no one here who can compare."
"So, if Jiang has a decision on this matter, does it mean that the matter is over?"
"This..."Shangguan Xian looked at Bai Li Guiyun.
"Hmph, if the Jiang Palace Master can find evidence that convinces everyone, I can guarantee that no one will dare to talk about this matter again!"
"Okay." Jiang Shuihan got up, "Since that's the case, then please ask everyone except the Nine Princes, Xiao Er, Brother Chu, Brother Shangguan and Brother Baili, and Situ Rui to go back and rest." From now on, please stay in your room for a short time, and no one is allowed to leave the Shangguan Mansion. ”
"This is weishenme!" Someone immediately began to retort, "The murderer who can be seen at a glance, why do you want to keep us here!" ”
"You are not allowed to leave until the matter is clarified." Nan Fengli coldly glanced at the person who jumped out, "Master Shangguan, please sort out the list of guests this time, this king will have to see it himself." If one or two are accidentally lost, the king will come to visit him with the Praetorian Guards in the future. Anyone else has any questions? ”
Everyone was silent, Shangguan Xian secretly smiled bitterly when he saw this, and stood up to salute, "Everyone, the Shangguan family will definitely treat you well and make amends, and all the expenses of these days will be counted in my Shangguan family's account." ”
After hearing what Shangguan Xian said, the people began to disperse in twos and threes, but a few people were still hesitant and unwilling to leave.
Situ Rui had a gloomy face, "Xiaoyu, Fan'er, you go back first." ”
"But big brother!" Situ Yu looked at him with red eyes.
"Go back! I'm here for everything, do you want to avenge your father! ”
Situ Yu and Situ Fan looked at each other, but finally nodded and left.
"Zhongyun Xiaoyou, why don't you leave yet?" Shangguan Xian stepped forward.
"I thought, maybe I don't have to be here." Ghost Zhongyun looked straight at Jiang Shuihan.
Jiang Shuihan looked in the direction of the ghost Zhongyun, inexplicably a little familiar, this person... I'm afraid it's still an old acquaintance, "It's okay, I heard that this poison is also seen through by the ghost brother at a glance, and I asked the ghost brother to help from the side." ”
"Nature." Oninakun nodded.
"Little hairpin." Xiao Yin suddenly remembered something, "You and Lin Yun should also go back first." ”
"Miss!" Xiao Hai's face twitched, "Xiao Hai is not leaving, Xiao Hai wants to accompany Miss." ”
"Have you forgotten what Brother Jiang said? Except for the people he ordered, are they not allowed to stay? ”
Xiao Hai wanted to say something but suddenly stopped, nodded and went out with Lin Yun, Xiao Yin looked at her leaving figure and hooked her lips.
"Situ Rui, do you remember how long it took for you to find your father in Chu Luoxian's courtyard when you found him?"
"About half a cup of tea."
"Half a cup of tea? Hmph," Bai Li Guiyun snorted coldly, "Those who are better at light work can commit a crime and then rush to the meeting as if nothing happened, and completely make an innocent appearance." Carefully calculated, the time when the Chu Sect Master was seated was indeed about half a cup of tea before the start of the conference. ”
"Why do so many people in Baili Village only pay attention to remembering when Luo Xian entered the table, how can they remember it so well and so coincidentally?"
Xiao Yin's words made Bai Li Guiyun a little speechless, and he waved his sleeves, "Then I don't know what is the purpose of Miss Xiao hiding her identity and following the prince to blend into the poetry club?" How do I know that you didn't join forces with the Demon Sect Master for the matter of the Eight Kings' Mansion that day, just to seek revenge on us! You can't get away with it! ”
"Oh?" Xiao Yin lowered her head and smiled lightly when she heard this, and in a blink of an eye, she had arrived in front of Bai Li Guiyun, and a pair of plain hands strangled his neck.
