"Do you remember why you were assassinated?" Li Sui looked at the contemplative man and asked.

Zhou Si looked up at him, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, and he tightened his facial features and thought about it for a long time, until his head was about to explode, and his head hurt as if someone was beating him with an axe, and there was a roar in his ears one after another.

"Ah......h

Zhou Si hugged his head and roared in pain, and his body curled up on the ground with a bald body.

"Brother Zhou, Brother Zhou......" Ye Jinyu hurriedly squatted down to check on his situation, his voice trembling nervously.

Li Sui raised his voice and shouted: "Come on, go and invite Mr. Jiang to come over." ”

Hou Ye gave an order, someone went to call the doctor, and someone rushed over when he heard the sound, and quickly carried the painful and struggling Zhou Si to the bed.

"Master Hou, what can I do about this?" Ye Jinyu was a little panicked.

"I remember that when Zhou Si was killed, his house was searched, and I don't know if the jade pendant was found." Li Sui thought that the jade pendant was likely to be related to the previous Cangnan Kingdom, and if it fell into the hands of the villains, it would be a potential danger to Jinyu.

"Gotta let the larks look for them again."

"Master Hou, what is the origin of that jade pendant?" Ye Jinyu saw that his expression became very solemn, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Li Sui eased his expression, showed a reassuring smile at her, and said softly: "I'll tell you when I find out." ”

Mr. Jiang quickly rushed over, and Zhou Si at this time fainted in pain not long after being moved to the bed because he couldn't bear the severe headache.

Mr. Jiang took his pulse, checked his head, facial features, palms and other places, and finally concluded: "Master Hou, there is a blood clot in his head, which may be dissipating and recovering, but at this time, it must not be stimulated again, and the patient needs to recuperate." ”

"Ben Hou understands, you guys guard him well." Li Sui nodded to Mr. Jiang, and then said to Ye Jinyu, "Let's go back first." ”

The matter of finding the jade pendant could not be delayed, as soon as Li Sui returned to the Shen Pavilion, he immediately called the lark and Qu Yu and asked them to take the people to act separately.

One team went to Zhou Si's house to search again, and the other team went to track the progress of the investigation of Zhou Si's case in the yamen.

The Skylark's movements were very fast, and he rushed back from Lianyin Village that night.

"We have checked the clothes in Zhou Si's house, and we have not found any underwear with a sandwich, and we have searched carefully in other places, and we have not found the jade pendant you said."

This result was expected by Li Sui, and before the lark returned, he thought of another possibility.

Zhou Si carefully collected this jade pendant, which he usually carried with him, perhaps the jade pendant was in the clothes he wore on the night of his assassination.

"Skylark, you go to the Xing family's courtyard tomorrow to see if the old clothes worn by Zhou Si are still there when Xing Gongzi rescued Zhou Si." Li Sui commanded in a deep voice.

"Yes." The lark bowed down.

Li Sui pondered for a moment, and then ordered: "Also, send a message to Miss Qianzhong, and ask her to inquire carefully about the jade pendant last time." ”

"Good!" The lark nodded and said in surprise: "The jade pendant last time seems to have been handed down from the former Cangnan Kingdom, right?" Does it have anything to do with the one you're looking for this time? ”

"I can't be sure, this matter will be kept secret for the time being, and it will be the same for Miss Ye." Li Sui made a gagged gesture to him.

The lark nodded immediately.

At noon the next day, the lark took Zhou Si's tattered and blood-stained clothes back from the Xing family's courtyard.

But it's a pity that the clothes are too badly rotten, although a small compartment inside the underwear was found. But coincidentally, there was a long cut cut by a sharp blade in that place, even if there was something in the mezzanine, it was likely to be thrown out as early as when Zhou Si fled, and I don't know where it was lost.

Of course, it is also possible that he was taken away by the person who assassinated him, or even put away by Xing Jing.

Zhou Si's condition is unstable and can no longer be stimulated, and now he can only wait for news from Qu Si.

The matter has been traced to the present, and finally there are new clues, but the result is to continue to wait, Ye Jinyu suddenly felt that this day was too difficult.

Thankfully, she was able to do a little task in her dreams and relax. It would have been more perfect if there had been one less person next to her who was eyeing her.

When they fell asleep again, they were no longer in Jinping County, but appeared outside the city gate of Tengluo City.

Ye Jinyu glanced left and right, it was rare that this time all five people gathered. They greeted each other, and a man dressed as an official came out of the city and came straight to them.

"A few knights are finally here, my family has been waiting for a long time, let's go into the city with the villain." The official saluted them, and walked to the side to lead the way with a happy face.

The five of them looked at each other, not knowing what kind of task they had suddenly come this time.

The official led them to the post station in Fujiro Castle, where they met an unexpected person in the lobby. Wonderful Pen Court

"Master Li!" The five of them saluted to the person who was sitting, wasn't this person Li Song, the county magistrate of Jinping County.

Li Song got up, saluted them very politely, and invited them to sit down with a smile, "You are finally here, and this official has heard about your chivalrous deeds earlier. When I was in Jinping County last year, you also helped my officials and insiders a lot, and I invite you to come here this time, which is also an important request. ”

The five of them were stunned for a while, but they didn't expect that a year had passed in their dreams in the blink of an eye.

"My lord just said that you are insider, have you married Miss Yunxiang?" Ye Jinyu couldn't help but open his mouth in surprise, and there was inexplicable joy in his heart, a sense of relief that he had witnessed the love of his parents.

Li Songwan'er, they just noticed that the current Li Song is very different from him a year ago, and the momentum on his body is not as sharp and solemn as before. On the contrary, there was a little more warmth kneaded into his bones, but his aura did not drop by half because of this.

"Yes, I just got married in half a month. Xiang'er has been thinking about the white girl, and before getting married, she still talked about inviting you to come to drink the wedding wine, but the official couldn't contact you at that time, and Xiang'er was sad for a while. When Li Song mentioned his wife, the voice in his eyes seemed to be mixed with honey.

"Congratulations!" After hearing this, the five raised their hands to congratulate him.

Li Song was polite with them, and Li Sui opened his mouth to get back to the point.

After Li Song's narration, they learned that just three days ago, there was a murder in the largest Goolan courtyard in Tengluo City.

The deceased was Yuan Cheng, the housekeeper of the family of Master Tongzhi Yuan, and the night before he went to the Guixiang Pavilion to find a good old girl, according to the twenty-five-year-old girl Qi Qinqin, Yuan Cheng left before midnight.

This is normal, because Yuan Cheng doesn't stay here all night every time he comes, only for three hours at most.

The backyard of Guixiang Pavilion is actually a separate place for people to live, and there are two doors on the left and one on the right. After exiting these two gates, you can go to the markets on the east and west sides, and it is very convenient to transport your purchases to the museum.

These two doors will be locked every night, and the key will be kept by the butler of the turtle, unless there is a bustard's handprint as proof, otherwise the door will not be opened again after the unitary time.

The deceased Yuan Cheng left from the main entrance of the Guixiang Pavilion, and there were many witnesses, which cannot be wrong. The backyard door was locked when he left, and there were also maids and turtle slaves walking back and forth to testify that before they went to bed that night, they did not see the backyard door open, nor did they find any suspicious characters sneaking in.

"What time do they go to bed?" Qi Guanyu asked.

Li Song said: "Except for the people on night duty, the rest of the people are going to bed at the time of the hour, and those who are on night duty are generally staying in the flower building in front and will not go to the backyard." ”

"So Yuan Cheng should have been killed later, he was hanged from a tree in the backyard, is that place obvious?" Qi Guanyu asked again.

Li Song said: "The official went to the scene of the crime and saw that the plane tree was facing the middle of the bedrooms of the people below, which was very conspicuous. According to the empirical corpse, the deceased was killed between the time of the child and the time of the second day, with no obvious external injuries on his body, his hands and feet were bound with ropes, and he was hanged facing the servant's bedroom. ”

"Are there any signs of poisoning?" Qi Guanyu asked.

Li Song shook his head, "No, the corpse was dissected, and there was no poison or drug in the stomach." In short, the man was hanged alive. By the way, his mouth was stuffed with cotton cloth, and he couldn't cry for help even if he struggled. ”

"I wonder what Lord Li needs me to do?" Li Sui asked.

Li Song also arched his hand to them, took out two scrolls from his arms and handed them over, and said, "These are all the people we have traced to the deceased in the past three months. Five of them are in Jinping County, and the other three are in Ziwei City next door. ”

"Have all the people in the Guixiang Pavilion investigated? Those who can quietly commit crimes there should be very familiar with the environment there, and fifty or sixty percent of them are committed by people there. Qi Guanyu looked at Li Song and analyzed.

Li Song replied: "A few of these people in their hands have been in and out of the Guixiang Pavilion recently. The people related to the deceased in Fujiluo City, we have investigated nearly half of them, and there is nothing to gain for the time being. ”

At this point, everything that should be explained has been explained, and the scroll records in detail the net worth background of the people who need to be investigated.

Ye Jinyu came to Qi Guanyu's side to look at the scroll in his hand, and suddenly caught a glimpse of one of the five people in Jinping County, and his spirit immediately perked up.

"Cousin, let's go check this in Jinping County." Ye Jinyu pointed to the one on the left.

Qi Guan was noncommittal, and the other scroll was taken away by Jing Xingzhi, "Then go to Ziwei City with Miss Qin to investigate." ”

"Brother Jing, take care of Miaoyin for us." Qi Guan said in a bowed voice.

Jing Xingzhi walked behind Qin Miaoyin, vaguely declaring sovereignty, raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Taking care of Miss Qin is a matter of internal responsibility, then we will set off first." ”

Qin Miaoyin didn't notice the intimacy in his words, and only took one last look at Ye Jinyu before turning around and leaving.

When they got out of Tengluo City, Ye Jinyu learned from the official who sent them out that Li Song had just been promoted to the general judge of Tengluo City three months ago, and he could be called the right and left hand of the Yun Governor's Mansion.

This is very similar to the trajectory of her real-life father.

There was no teleportation array in Jinping County, and when they left the city gate, they released their respective mounts. Who knew that Ye Jinyu had just jumped on the horse, and a voice that seemed to be laughing sounded next to him, "Hey, I forgot to supply the horse grass, my horse has no strength now, and it can't be released." Can you bother Jin Yu to give me a ride? ”

Ye Jinyu's entire back suddenly became stiff, and he inadvertently glanced at Qi Guanyu's reaction, he originally looked back at them, but after Hou Ye said this, he turned his head and turned his back to them unnaturally.

Ye Jinyu frowned, my cousin's reaction was wrong, didn't he protect her before? Why did he suddenly choose to turn a blind eye today, isn't he worried that she will be rumored to be having an affair with another man in her dream?

Li Sui naturally noticed the abnormality of Qi Guanyu, even if he was still self-aware, but his face remained calm, his black eyes looked directly at Ye Jinyu, pursed his lips slightly, a little pleaded and a little aggrieved, and looked a little cute.
