Chapter 259: Doubts

Ren Xiaolan shook her head and said: "Although I am her maid, she likes to be alone, except for going to Qionglong Mountain to ask me to be a companion, she rarely asks me to go out with her every day." Occasionally, I heard that she had a conversation with Yuwen Siman, and then Chang'an came to Han Donglang, and she fell in love with him by magic. When she was most sad and lonely, she also mentioned to me that she really wanted to marry him, and told Donglang that it was okay to be a concubine. It's a pity that the person Han Donglang loves is Leng Yue Hanxing, and he rejected Youlan's confession. Since then, Youlan has had something on her mind, and she has become less and less talkative, it seems that she is really in love with Han Donglang and can't let go of him anymore. As for my best friend, I haven't heard of it, and I haven't seen who she brought to the academy to talk about the world and stay overnight. It's better to ask her mother about the situation, I know so much, and if nothing else, I'll go downstairs and work. ”

Ren Chuansu asked in a low voice: "What are you busy with when Youlan is usually at home. You should know this! ”

Xiaolan glanced at Su Yiqing and said with a smile: "When Youlan is at home, she stays in the flower room for a long time, maybe it's to practice martial arts!" Occasionally, I talked with people who came to the academy to read books, and sat with them to read books. Sometimes I sit in the office of the academy and read the handwriting, but I don't know very well. ”

Cai Lingxiao stared at Xiaolan and whispered, "Okay, there's nothing for you here, you can go and do housework." When you think of something you need to talk to me about, go upstairs and let me know. ”

Xiaolan nodded and said, "Okay, thank you, Lord Cai." Good bye! ”

After Ren Xiaolan went out, Cai Lingxiao approached the couch, looked at Su Yiqing and asked, "Cousin-in-law, Youlan is still in the boudoir, is it related to this Han Donglang?" In addition to Yuwensi and Han Donglang, which men does Youlan have a relationship with, you might as well tell me everything! ”

Su Yiqing looked at Ren Chuansu and said, "Husband, I once heard you say that Youlan's martial arts master is a suave young Linglang, and the qigong master is a person who is close to sixties, have you seen these two people, I haven't seen them." Will Youlan find the two of them to learn martial arts, or go into retreat? ”

Ren Chuansu shook his head and said, "You and I want to go together, but we haven't seen these two mysterious characters!" I also heard Youlan herself mention it to me once, and then I took the initiative to ask her, and she didn't say anything. Today a murderer came and stabbed Xiaolan, and I was worried about whether something happened to Youlan, and I was always sincerely afraid in my heart. Youlan's personality is like a man, often wandering around alone outside, sometimes the road is uneven and pulls out a knife to help, and loves to rob the rich and help the poor, will he make enemies with others? The enemy practiced martial arts and came to settle accounts, kidnapped her somewhere, and then killed her to take revenge. ”

"Bah, baba, you crow's mouth, how can you be a father and curse a child! I didn't believe that Youlan, who was strong in martial arts, would be assassinated, and my first feeling was that I was going to retreat. Su Yiqing said angrily.

Ren Chuansu sighed and said, "I hope it is as you said, now listen to Cousin Cai's opinion!" ”

Cai Lingxiao drank a large cup of tea, raised his voice and said: "I analyzed what Xiaolan said just now, and I suspect that Youlan went to Qionglong Mountain for retreat, maybe her two masters are on Qionglong Mountain." Youlan goes to the mountains when the four seasons change, but Xiaolan is looking out for her, and she doesn't know where Youlan is, what she does, who she is with, and so on. I pondered that Youlan must have made an appointment with someone to go up the mountain, maybe it was the meeting place arranged by the two masters, I want to ask Xiaolan to lead the way to the top of the four mountains to find Youlan, what do you think? ”

Ren Chuansu sighed for a long time: "What else can I do?" That's all there is to it. My husband and wife are at a loss, so they asked you for help, everything is up to you to arrange, and you need us to cooperate with you to do something, you might as well say it bluntly. ”

Cai Lingxiao said solemnly: "That's good, I decided to leave for Qionglong Mountain the day after tomorrow, what do you think?" ”

Su Yiqing glared at Ren Chuansu and said solemnly: "My opinion is that the matter in the morning should be reported to Yu Assassin Shi, the murderer should be found in advance, and the trip to Qionglong Mountain should be pressed." If Youlan is really in retreat on Qionglong Mountain, it means that it is safe, and it will be fine if you delay it for a few days. Xiaolan fortunately escaped, I am now worried that Youlan is in trouble and must go to the Pingjiang Prefecture Government Office to report the case, Uncle Cai, what do you think? ”

Cai Lingxiao said firmly: "The murderers have jumped out of the window and entered the house to kill people, it is necessary to report the case, I also have this meaning, it just so happened that you brought it up, let's go report the case, let my cousin go together!" ”

Ren Chuansu said in a low voice: "Wait, I just felt that Xiaolan's attitude was wrong, and her expression was a little uneasy, do you know the person who stabbed her?" We are suspicious, after all, Xiaolan is Ling Ai that Youlan picked up on the street. More than ten years ago, Xiaolan was only seven or eight years old, begging on the streets of Qionglong City, Youlan saw her a little girl, ragged clothes, unkempt hair, so she stepped forward and handed her food, and asked her where her father and mother had gone? She shook her head and didn't speak, and a bad old man behind her came forward to explain, saying that she was an orphan, and no one cared about her when her father and mother died, so she had no choice but to come out and beg along the street. As a result, Youlan led her to my house and asked her what her name was, and she couldn't remember how old she was, so Youlan gave her a name called Ren Xiaolan. Because of her appearance very similar to Youlan, Youlan let her be her personal maid. Take it out, people think it's Youlan's sister. ”

Cai Lingxiao listened to Ren Chuansu's words and fell into contemplation.

Su Yiqing looked at Ren Chuansu, who was silent, and looked at Cai Lingxiao, who was meditating, coughed dryly, and raised her voice and said: "When I stepped into the dining hall, Xiaolan was already lying on the ground unconscious, and the murderer probably thought that Xiaolan was dead, so he hurriedly jumped out of the window and escaped." It seems that the martial arts are not bad! The murderer was dressed in black clothes and pants, and his face was covered with a black cloth, maybe they didn't know each other! ”

Cai Lingxiao asked in surprise: "How do you know that they don't know each other?" The child was picked up on the street, and an old man came out in the back to explain that there was a question mark about all this. ”

Ren Chuansu hurriedly continued: "Cousin Cai is reasonable, who knows what this Ling Ai has to do with that old man?" Maybe I've been following Youlan for a long time, knowing the details of our family, as well as Youlan's behavior, and deliberately bringing that love to the street where Youlan often goes to buy pastries to eat, so that Youlan can bump into it and bring people to our home. The world is full of wonders, and we must be on guard! Ren Xiaolan's words and deeds during this period of time, insiders have to observe and think with more eyes. ”

Su Yiqing asked nervously: "Listen to what you say, does Youlan's disappearance have anything to do with Xiaolan?" Whether Xiaolan is a good person or a bad person, I can't tell the difference. ”

Cai Lingxiao stared at Su Yiqing and asked: "Cousin-in-law, you might as well recall, since Xiaolan was brought into your house by Youlan, has she behaved abnormally, has anyone secretly come to see her, has she secretly contacted anyone, especially when she grows up, who has looked for her, or she has found others, and what is her actual age this year?" How do you take care of you? Whether you are obedient, considerate and thoughtful, etc., I can figure out a plan to find Ren Youlan. ”

Su Yiqing said dejectedly: "Xiaolan is Youlan's maid, I don't usually pay attention to her, I have almost no contact, and I don't know much about her." When Youlan was at home, I don't know if they often stick together. Youlan is out, I don't know where Xiaolan goes, and I don't know who I usually contact with! Only when you find Youlan can you ask these things. But she is usually very considerate and thoughtful to us, her personality and temper are quite easy-going, she is diligent and neat in doing things, she is very attentive and serious in learning to do things, and now she is quite delicious in cooking, which is in line with the taste of my whole family, and her husband is very satisfied with her cooking skills. It's just that it's hard to know the face of the person, if you find Youlan, you can understand Xiaolan. ”

Ren Chuansu said confusedly: "Not necessarily, Youlan often goes alone, Xiaolan spends a lot of time alone, just like the Ren family's Ling Ai, in our house is free, who knows what she did behind our back?" ”

Cai Lingxiao asked suspiciously: "Who can Xiaolan talk to the most at home?" ”

Su Yiqing suddenly said loudly: "I am quite close to the florist Cao Yunxin, I often meet them chatting together, without scruples and pretentiousness, and often make a hilarious laughing sound, with a bright smile on their faces." You might as well find out from Cao Yunxin. ”

Cai Lingxiao asked solemnly: "Is it the Cao Yunxin who is in his fifties?" How could they be together so often? How many years has he been working as a florist in your house? It's a local! ”

Ren Chuansu stared at Su Yiqing and asked: "The gardener is your father's hometown, and he is related to your father, how is his personality, you should know that I don't have much time at home, you can talk to Cousin Cai!" ”

Su Yiqing looked at Cai Lingxiao and said, "Cao Yunxin has a family and is a distant relative of my father. At that time, because Youlan built a flower house, and the yard was full of flowers, my father came to the house as a guest, and saw a lot of flowers and trees, some flowers were still sick, so he suggested to me to invite an expert gardener, I said yes! Youlan is so busy every day that she has to practice martial arts to take care of the academy, and the academy just needs an administrator, so it's just right to ask a gardener to manage the academy and flower seedlings. As a result, after my father went back, on the third day, Cao Yunxin florist came. He went home every ten days and came back three days later, and he had been like this for more than ten years, and he was so upright and bold that everyone in my family could talk to him. ”

Cai Lingxiao smiled: "It seems that his popularity is quite good, and he has a gentle temperament!" ”

Su Yiqing frowned and said, "That's right." It's just that I noticed that Xiaolan spent more time with him, but I didn't see anything abnormal. However, it is better to be cautious and cautious. Shall I ask him to come and talk, or will you go and talk to him? ”

Cai Lingxiao pondered for a moment and said: "It's not appropriate for me to talk to him, you should go to him to talk to yourself, you can start with Xiaolan's assassination in the dining hall this morning, and slowly lead to his topic, and then act on the opportunity, what you say below depends on your level of answers." ”
