Chapter 12: Liuzhou's Suspicions (10)

Now that things have made significant progress, although Sun Xinglai's death can be highly suspected to be caused by the toxin of Nalan Jacquard induced by heart palpitations and cardiac arrest, but who is the person behind the poisoning? Who is going to target the Yan family?

Jing Ziyan frowned, "My lord, it seems that now, we can only work on that peixin grass and the person with the mask. ”

Now even if he knows that Miss Yan's marriage still has twists and turns, there is no evidence, and he can't easily suspect the prince. What's more, two princes compete for a woman, and they do not hesitate to use such a means for this, which sounds incredible.

Liu Jingyi frowned, "Childe, I heard Boss Zhao of the flower house say that the Peixin grass likes yin and generally grows on the mountain, if the person who poisoned it was picked back from the mountain, then we have no way to verify it." ”

Jing Ziyan nodded, a little helpless. "Do you remember the characteristics of the person who bought the Nalan jacquard described by Boss Zhao of the flower house?"

Liu Jingyi said: "The person Boss Zhao said is a person with a silver mask, about seven feet tall, and his left hand. She paused, and then said, "I remember that Ding Yi, the apprentice of Sun Xinglai, said that the person who gave Sun Xinglai flowers was a person with a silver mask on his face. That Ding Yi also said that this person is good friends with Boss Sun. ”

Jing Ziyan raised his deep eyes and said gloomily, "A good friend with a mask? This good friend is not simple. ”

"If we think of these two people as the same person, what kind of person do you say should wear a mask in the face of a good friend?" Jing Ziyan asked leisurely.

"Either you hide your identity or, like me, your face is disfigured." Liu Jingyi said.

"Okay, let's assume he's just like you, with a disfigured face. Yi'er, how do you usually cover your face? Jing Ziyan asked rhetorically.

Liu Jingyi was puzzled, "If I usually wear women's clothes, I will bring a veil, and if I wear men's clothes, I will bring a mask like this to cover the face of the injured side, and the other side will not cover the injured side."

"That is, you cover your face anytime and anywhere." Jing Ziyan said in a deep voice. "According to the owner of the flower house, the person with the mask is not like you, who only has half of his face, he covers his whole face. If he wears a face covering because of a facial injury, he will always wear the face covering. Jing Ziyan said. If he just wanted to hide his identity, then he would only wear a mask when he saw this Boss Sun. ”

"My lord, please find the reward notice, and look for this man with a face mask in the whole Liuzhou Mansion." Jing Ziyan said to Jiao Zhen.

After listening to Jing Ziyan's analysis, Jiao Zhen nodded approvingly. "Jing Han, your analysis is reasonable, I immediately ordered someone to send a reward notice, and the whole city is looking for this man."

Jing Ziyan seemed to think of something, and said to Liu Jingyi: "Yi'er, you went to check Miss Yan's pulse before, and now that some time has passed, should you go and visit Miss Yan again to see if she is cured."

Liu Jingyi's eyes lit up and said, "Oh, how did I forget this stubble, I'll go to Yanfu." ”

"Hey, wait." Jing Ziyan stopped Liu Jingyi, who was pulling out her legs and leaving. "It's getting late at this moment, you go now, the city gate will be closed for a while, you won't be able to go home, and you'll go again tomorrow."

Then Jing Ziyan said goodbye to Jiao Zhen: "Adult, the villain will leave first in the near future and come back tomorrow." ”

Jiao Zhen looked out at the night that had fallen, and said, "Jing Han, I think you will buy a house in the city in the future and move to the city to live, otherwise it will be too inconvenient for you to go back and forth into the city and out of the city." The case is important, I think you should move as soon as possible, and if there is any difficulty, just open up to the official. Jiao Zhen looked at Jing Ziyan with complicated eyes and said: "If there are any difficulties in money, you must also tell the official, and the official can pay you the monthly money in advance."

Jing Ziyan hesitated for a moment and said: "Don't hide it from the adult, the villain has already this intention, and has arranged for his family to buy a house, and he will move to the city to live in the near future." ”

"Okay, well, when you settle down, the official will go to you to congratulate you on the housewarming." Jiao Zhen nodded uncontrollably. Jiao Zhen has his own little abacus, he sent someone to check on this Jing Han, he only came to Xiaotian Village two years ago, and no one knows the origin of this Jing Han. But his years of intuition told him that this person was not simple.

Jing Ziyan took Liu Jingyi back to his home in Xiaotian Village, and Han Che had already prepared a carriage and waited outside the yamen of the Criminal Division. Inside the carriage, Jing Ziyan looked at Liu Jingyi with a blue face, and looked at Liu Jingyi with a burst of hair.

Liu Jingyi laughed and whispered: "Childe, why are you looking at me like this, is it wrong for me to do something?" ”

Jing Ziyan ignored her. Han Che, who was driving outside in a gloomy tone, said, "Han Che, go home and go to Steward Liu to get the punishment yourself." ”

"Yes." Han Che replied in a crisp voice.

"Childe, what did Han Che do wrong, you want to punish him?"

"He is not good for the Lord." Jing Ziyan still said gloomily, "I asked him to follow you in order to protect you, and investigating the case is no better than going out to see a doctor, which is really too dangerous." ”

Liu Jingyi said with a smile: "Childe, I have also learned kung fu from you, and I can protect myself, but Childe, you are already weak, and someone must follow you." ”

"No, in the future, you will either follow me, or let Han Che follow you, otherwise you are not allowed to go out." Jing Ziyan's face was still gloomy.

"Yes. . . Yi'er can't listen to Gongzi in the future? Childe, don't be angry, you can spare Han Che this time. Liu Jingyi begged for mercy for Han Che.

"By the way, Childe, I suddenly remembered something now." Liu Jingyi said: "Who is the person sent by Yanfu to find Sun Xinglai before? Have you seen it? ”

"It's the deputy butler of the Yan Mansion, called Xue Xiang." Jing Ziyan said. "When I went to Yanfu with Jiao Zhen, I saw this Xue Xiang. He only came to Yanfu three years ago, because he was proficient in arithmetic, he worked as a bookkeeper in Yanfu, and also helped the housekeeper Zhou Hao take care of things. ”

"Three years ago? Does Lord Yan know the origin of this Xue Xiang? Liu Jingyi asked. What year did Lord Yan become a teacher? ”

"The forty years of Dachen Qianyuan was three years ago." Jing Ziyan said. "Lord Yan said that at that time, this person was fainted by hunger at the door of the Yan Mansion, and Lord Yan ordered someone to carry him into the mansion, so he stayed in the Yan Mansion, and this person was originally a down-and-out talent."

"Childe, you said that after this Xue Xiang saw Sun Xinglai, Sun Xinglai died violently, do you say this is a coincidence?" Liu Jingyi looked up and asked.

"Where in the world did so many coincidences come from?" Jing Ziyan said. "It's just that someone deliberately created it, but we haven't found the key to it yet."

As he spoke, the carriage had returned to Odamura's home. Aunt Youxi was already at the door to greet her as usual. "Childe is tired all day, the meals and hot water have been prepared, and Childe should go back to the room to rest."

"Auntie, how is the matter I told you to do?" Jing Ziyan asked.

"Hui Gongzi, Mo Yu and I have found a suitable house today, just on a street in the east of the city, the house is not big, but it is also secluded and suitable for living. Just wait for the son to see it and make a decision. Jing Ziyan nodded.

At night, Jing Ziyan rested in Chai Ruoxue's room. After some clouds and rain, Jing Ziyan looked at Chai Ruoxue dotingly and said, "Xue'er, I may embark on a road full of thorns in the future, are you willing to support me behind me?" ”

Chai Ruoxue looked at Jing Ziyan puzzled, and said with tears in her eyes: "Ziyan, isn't our life good now?" Why do you have to go down a path of no return? ”

Jing Ziyan sighed, "Xue'er, don't worry, no matter where I am, I will definitely protect you." ”

"Ziyan, I'm afraid, I don't want to live the original life in King Mu's mansion again." Chai Ruoxue cried lowly.

"Xue'er, don't be afraid, don't worry, everything has me." Jing Ziyan stroked Chai Ruoxue's jet-black hair and hugged her tighter. "I will protect you at all times." Jing Ziyan gently comforted Chai Ruoxue. "We're going to move to the city in two days, and now I'm on an errand in the Yamen of the Criminal Division, and it's not convenient to live in this small village and go back and forth."

Chai Ruoxue looked at Jing Ziyan in surprise. She has never heard him mention the move, and since she got married, Jing Ziyan has been in charge of all major and small things in the family, and she, the housewife, has done it too leisurely.

She knew that there was no room for negotiation in this matter, and Jing Ziyan had decided to just inform her, but she was also happy to worry.

On the second day, Liu Jingyi confessed according to Jing Ziyan, and took Zisu to Yanfu to visit Yan Zitong. Jing Ziyan went to the yamen to order the money first, and the reward notice was issued, but no one came to the yamen to provide clues, and the case was at an impasse for a while. Jing Ziyan went to see the house with his young pity.

This is a binary house, located in the city of Anning Fang, she did not choose the east of the city, the houses in the east of the city are not rich or expensive, Jing Ziyan hopes to escape the world, not obtrusive, remote and quiet places are always right.

Jing Ziyan didn't have many people in the house, and after coming to Xiaotian Village, he had been doing the medicinal herb business, and with the consultation money that Liu Jingyi often earned from going out to the clinic, he also had some savings. Although you can buy a three-in, three-out house, Jing Ziyan doesn't want to be eye-catching, so everything is simple.

For Jing Ziyan, this house is just right, with pavilions and green trees. Entering through the street gate, that is, the gate, next to it is a row of inverted houses, which are connected to the front yard. This row of inverted seats can be used by the next person, the front yard is used to entertain guests, the front yard and the inner courtyard are connected by the arch flower gate, and the inner courtyard is through the arch flowers. The inner courtyard is composed of east and west wings, the inner courtyard is facing the main house, and the east and west rooms are connected to the east and west rooms behind the main house. What is rare is that although this house is binary, it has things across the courtyard.

"Are you happy with this house?" You Xi asked respectfully.

"Satisfied, satisfied." Jing Zi nodded incessantly. "In the future, you and your wife will live in the main house." Aunt Youxi said, and then wanted to tell Jing Ziyan about her arrangements.

"Clean up the East Cross Courtyard and give it to Yi'er to live in." Jing Ziyan interrupted Yu Xi and said. "For the rest, you can arrange it. Oh, by the way, Yi'er is the only one to serve Zisu, you go and find a girl who is about the same age as Jingyi, come and serve with Zisu. ”

The young regret was stunned, and then reacted: "Yes." ”

Jing Ziyan looked at this courtyard, nodded with satisfaction, and stepped into the East Cross Courtyard, although the East Cross Courtyard is smaller than the main courtyard, but it is also composed of the main house and the east and west wings, the courtyard is quiet and pleasant, and a few weeping willows are swaying in the wind.

"In the future, this courtyard will be called Yihexuan." Jing Ziyan said lightly. "It's a pity, I ordered someone to take a good rest in this house, and let's move over at a later date."

Suddenly, a rustling sound came from behind Jing Ziyan. Jing Ziyan's eyes were cold, and he said coldly: "Your Excellency has followed me all the way, and it is time to show up." ”
