Volume 1 The First Encounter Chapter 56 Ignite the Flames

The master and servant stood outside the high door of the new house, thinking about how to knock on this door and come to this mouth. Xun Yang seemed to have thought of something, and looked at He Hao with a somewhat unpleasant face.

"My lord, my subordinates have a conjecture that I don't know whether to talk about or not."

He Hao glanced at him and said, "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"My lord, we just thought that the murderer killed and dumped the body for a reason, so could this reason be because if the body is left in place, it may arouse suspicion." Xun Yang said and looked at the new mansion standing in front of the two of them, cleared his throat hesitantly and continued, "The location of the General's Mansion happens to be located on Qingning Road, whether it is to commit murder or deal with blood stains afterwards, it is the most convenient... There is also the testimony of the little brother who beat the watch, it was almost the time of the crime, and the gold thread on the straw mat, and the subordinates remembered that when General Xiao Gu returned to Beijing, the official family should have rewarded him with a lot of things, inside..."

"Seeking the sun." He Hao put his hand on Xun Yang's shoulder, "It's a good thing for young people to think differently, but Dali Temple pays attention to evidence in the investigation of cases, I can't arrest people based on conjecture, and you think it's General Xiao Gu, so what is the reason for him to do this, he is in the limelight now, there is no need for this." ”

"Yes, my lord, it's the subordinates who are reckless."

"Let's go ask questions first."

It was Qin Shujin's newly recruited money housekeeper who came to open the door, and after seeing the two of them, and asking about the intentions, he was a little like a man, and he was not easy to discuss about the masters.

"Two adults, our generals have always lived in the Gu Mansion and rarely come here."

"On Chinese New Year's Eve, where is General Xiao Gu?"

"Chinese New Year's Eve..." Butler Qian thought for a while, "I remember, the general attended the palace banquet that day, and after the banquet was dispersed, he came back, sent some loose money to the people and returned to the mansion, and did not return in the evening." ”

"Didn't come back?"

"Yes, there are not many people in the new house, and because of the New Year, a few more people went home to visit relatives. The general said that the rest would stay in the mansion for the New Year, and also ordered a few dishes from Tianxianglou for us, so that we don't have to be restrained to add some New Year's flavor to the mansion. ”

The master and servant glanced at each other, not feeling that the cold-faced little Hades was so sympathetic to the lord of his subordinates.

"Then around the ugly night, did you hear the door slamming."

"Probably not, I went to bed early."

The two frowned together, and Xun Yang said, "Can we go in and have a look?" ”

Steward Qian thought of the Buddha who lived in the wing, and was a little embarrassed for a while: "This..."

He Hao said: "I hope you can cooperate with Dali Temple to investigate the case." ”

Steward Qian had no choice but to respond, and turned sideways to let the two in. After entering the house, Xunyang looked around the ground turf like a prospector, and he always felt that after the murderer cleaned up the corpse and the blood stains on the road, his body would definitely stick to it, and maybe he could leave something.

Xunyang was looking around with his head down, but a pair of black women's boots suddenly appeared in front of him, Xunyang looked at the boots, it was a woman wearing white riding makeup, the woman tied her hair, held a bow in her hand, and carried a quiver on her back, looking at him curiously with a smile.

Xunyang's face flushed, and he hurriedly stepped back, distancing himself from people.

Bai Zhi saw that this reaction was very big, and she wanted to laugh for a while: "What are you two looking for?" ”

He Hao looked at Bai Zhi at the same time, guessing her identity, living in the General's Mansion, could it be Gu Yanhuo's outer room, but her age is not right.

Seeing Bai Zhi's curiosity, Steward Qian said, "The two adults are here to investigate the case of the killing of the Cai team. ”

Bai Zhi sighed, and asked lightly, "What do you want to ask about those two adults?" ”

He Hao asked, "The girl is General Xiao Gu's..."

Bai Zhi said heartily: "I am his master, and my stupid apprentice still has something to do with this case?" ”

He Hao didn't say yes or no, but asked, "The girl was in the mansion on Chinese New Year's Eve?" ”

Bai Zhi frowned quietly in her heart, but her face was as kind as a stream: "No, I went out, met a friend, and came back when I was ugly." ”

"What kind of friend is it, can you tell me?"

Bai Zhi said with a smile: "A friend surnamed Xu, we made an appointment to meet on the mountain in the south of the city, and we made an appointment." ”

The master and servant seemed to be shocked by Bai Zhi's answer, a girl and someone to fight? And said it so frankly, they kind of didn't know how to take it.

"Came back when you were ugly?"

"Yes, I just happened to hear about the beating, and I just realized that I had been fighting for so long." Bai Zhi looked at the two of them good-naturedly, "Does this have anything to do with the case?" ”

He Hao hurriedly said, "No, we are just a routine questioner to disturb the girl." ”

"It's okay, I'll send you two adults." Bai Zhi sent the two out of the door with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and said very intimately, "If the two adults have something to ask, I will answer truthfully, if it is inconvenient to come over, you can also summon me, but Yan Huo has been recuperating in Gu Mansion recently, and he may not come to the new house, if the two adults want to find him, they may have to go to Gu Mansion." ”

"Thank you, girl."

The two of them left with their own thoughts.

"My lord? Are we going to Gu Mansion? ”

He Hao shook his head: "The Gu Mansion may not be able to find out anything, let's go and check the friend surnamed Xu first, listen to her, that person has only entered Beijing in the past few days, check who has entered Beijing recently, and then check the post station and inn." ”

"Yes."

Here, Bai Zhi watched the backs of the two disappear into the corner of the street, and then closed the door with a cold face.

The money housekeeper on the side looked at Bai Zhi and the others with some fear.

"You didn't say anything you shouldn't have said."

"The little one didn't say anything." Steward Qian assured, "I didn't mention a word about Miss Qin and Gongzi Rong. ”

Bai Zhi nodded, but she was a little upset, the person who investigated the case in Dali Temple actually asked about Gu Fu, she was bumped into when she returned to the house that day, if she couldn't explain it clearly, she would really be on fire, but Xu Lang said that he would deal with it, and he was playing with her.

Steward Qian took out a note from his arms and handed it to Bai Zhi: "Girl, this is a carrier pigeon sent early in the morning, and I haven't had time to give it to you yet." ”

Bai Zhi took it, glanced down, then gritted her teeth and crumpled the paper ball, and threw it to the money housekeeper: "Burn it." ”

See you in Tianxianglou, surprise to be taken.

Sure enough, Xu Lang is playing tricks!! Cunning man.

Bai Zhi stood under Tianxiang Tower, and when she raised her eyes, she saw the man drinking and shaking the fan by the window on the second floor, and the man even greeted her in a friendly manner, but she just wanted to bring people up and beat them, and make moths for her every day!

"The white girl is here, sit down." Xu Lang poured wine into the wine cup in front of Bai Zhi's eyes very gracefully, "Xu ordered a few snacks on his own initiative, and I don't know if it suits your appetite." ”

Bai Zhi snorted coldly: "Seeing you, nothing is appetizing." ”

"Miss Bai is so angry because the imperial court investigated the case and found General Xiao Gu and the girl?"

"Knowingly?" Bai Zhi drank all the wine in the wine cup and said to the man, "We promised you to cooperate, this is your cooperation?" Aren't you afraid that I will confess you in a hurry? ”

"The white girl should have confessed her subordinates."

Bai Zhi didn't speak, it was undeniable, she did mention him, but it was also forced.

The man didn't seem to be angry, but smiled and helped her fill the wine.

"The white girl is a smart person, and she knows how to draw the eyes of the court to Xu."

"At this time, neither Gu Yanhuo nor you can be suspected!"

Xu Lang closed the folding fan and knocked it in his hand and said: "Fei Ye, Fei Ye, what is the safest, of course, after being suspected, I found that General Xiao Gu and I are innocent, so that the follow-up matter, General Xiao Gu can bring it out, otherwise sooner or later there will be a day when he will be suspected, the further back, the greater the risk, it is better to send himself to the enemy at the beginning and prove his innocence." ”

Bai Zhi was a little speechless: "Sure enough, you let them find the new house." ”

"Xu just provided them with room for conjecture, but I didn't expect that little official to be quite good."

Bai Zhi wanted to roll her eyes, but she endured it for the sake of her image: "But if you continue to be so ambiguous, it will really catch fire." ”

"Don't worry, the surprises are ready, this matter, Feng Wumo will suffer a dumb loss." Xu Lang didn't wait for Bai Zhi to ask again, and continued, "But, before that, you have to call Rong Zhao to see me!" ”

"Tomorrow."

"No, right away."
