Chapter 283: Zhen Niang
In the case of a woman's death on the street, Dali Temple quickly gave the result. The reason is that the woman and the murderer are both from Miaojiang, and the woman admires the murderer, so she put a concentric Gu on him, who knew that there was a problem with the concentric Gu, and the sub-Gu in the woman's body had a problem first, causing her body to suddenly have problems, and the man was directly killed and went crazy, which killed the woman.
After this incident, the identity of the people living in the capital was checked overnight, and no one from Miao Jiang was allowed to mix. However, in this investigation, no one was found alive, but several corpses of Miao Jiang people were found in an alley. These two things happened one after another, and the whole capital was shocked.
"My lord," Gu Lizheng put a fold on the desk and said, "It has been handed down from above." "Naturally, this is the one in the palace. Lin Yuan looked at it, and directly asked him not to continue to investigate, and the matter ended here. Lin Yuan was not surprised by this result, if he wanted to investigate carefully, he would not let him close the case just like this when he reported the matter of Tongxin Gu.
Jingqi and Song Liangfushan entered the capital under such circumstances. When they found Mingyudian according to the address on Cheng An's letter, Cheng An was already waiting in the store.
It was noon and there were no customers in the store. The four of them entered the backyard, and after Cheng Yuru served tea, she went outside to keep an eye on them. In the past two days, the investigation in the capital has been strict, and it must not be easy for Jingqi and others to enter smoothly.
"Tsk." Jing Qi smashed his mouth and teased: "You are living a good life now, the beauty is on the side, and you are very considerate and well-behaved." ”
Cheng An didn't hear it, he solemnly told Jing Qi what happened after entering the capital, and Jing Qi's smiling expression slowly dissipated, and finally became solemn. He suddenly realized: "No wonder the city gate is so tightly guarded today. ”
He heard about these two murders as early as when he entered the city, and only then did he know what was involved behind them when he heard Cheng An.
Miao Jiang, the Holy Maiden, the Betrayer...... These three words are concatenated to reveal that things are not as simple as they seem. Jingqi thought about it for a while, and said seriously: "Since you are suspicious, it is better to let me investigate for you first." When you go to Miaojiang, you can find more than you can find in the capital. ”
Everyone must know that the saint is in Miaojiang, and it is easier to go to Miaojiang than to guess in the capital. Cheng An didn't agree immediately, but nodded under Jingqi's persuasion. Now all the clues point to Miao Jiang, and they must be investigated.
A few days later, Cheng An and Song Liang sent Jingqi to the city gate.
"Go back, you kid." The mirror patted Cheng An's shoulder. slapped Song Liang lightly again, and instructed: "Protect him, don't die here before I come back." With that, he turned around and walked away neatly. Cheng An and Song Liang did not leave the city gate until the figure of the mirror disappeared.
Song Liang found that Cheng An was taking the wrong path, they should have walked straight along Suzaku Street to Mingyupu, but Cheng An took him around Suzaku Street.
Cheng An held his hands and stopped, "Let's go to Lin's house." After saying this, the door of the mansion with the words Lin Mansion written on the plaque had already appeared in front of them. Cheng An explained his intention to the little guy guarding the door, and the little guy brought them directly to Lin Yuan.
"Brother Cheng." Lin Yuan gestured to Cheng An, and when he saw Song Liang beside him, he briefly froze.
Cheng An said to Lin Yuan: "This is Song Liang. Lin Yuan didn't ask more questions after hearing this, he led the two of them into a remote courtyard in the Lin Mansion.
There were a lot of dead leaves in the yard, and at first glance, no one had cleaned them for a long time. Lin Yuan walked to the door of the main house, knocked lightly, and said inside: "Zhenniang, someone brought it." ”
It took a moment for a hoarse voice to come from the room, "Come in." ”
The light in the room was very dim, and Cheng An smelled a musty smell as soon as he entered the room. He found the rumored saint on the couch in the room, dressed in a brown garment and with long silver hair uncombed. His face was full of wrinkles, and his eyes when he looked at Cheng An were not as waveless as Gujing.
The saint was also looking at Cheng An, and she asked, "Is that you want to see me?" ”
Cheng An replied calmly: "Yes." ”
"Why do you want to see me?"
Cheng settled for a moment, and then said, "Because I have confusion in my heart." After he finished speaking, he asked directly: "You are the saint of Miao Jiang?" ”
This holy woman looked to be about fifty years old, and when she heard Cheng An's question, she neither answered nor refuted. The air was so quiet that you could hear your own heartbeat.
The holy woman suddenly turned her head and faced him, "Since you have seen me now, then go back." ”
Cheng An said: "I heard that you have never seen anyone else in all these years. "The implication is that there must be a reason why you suddenly want to see me.
Unexpectedly, the saint nodded directly, a very faint smile appeared on her face, and said: "I also heard that you are the son of the traitorous general, and now that I have seen you with my own eyes, it is really the same as what others said." There was an imperceptible intimacy in her words, but Cheng An felt it keenly.
He asked, "Do you know him?" "His identity is no longer a secret in the capital now, but I didn't expect this holy woman to know it.
Without waiting for the saint to answer, his eyes were as sharp as knives in the saint's face, and he said, "What about Jia Miao? Do you know Gamiao too? ”
The saint's expression froze, and her body froze suddenly.
Cheng An secretly said in his heart, sure enough, it was right. There was a storm in his heart, there was nothing unusual on his face, and he even took the initiative to say the answer for the saint, "You know." ...... Gamiao"
He looked puzzled, "And what is your relationship with her?" ”
"You...... Get out! The saint suddenly trembled and pointed at her, her expression gradually cracked, "You hurry up!" ”
Cheng An looked at her appearance and said more affirmatively: "You and her are both from Miaojiang." ”
Lin Yuan pushed the door in, and when he saw that the saint was out of control, he quickly pulled Cheng An and said, "Brother Cheng, I'll send you back." ”
When the holy woman saw Lin Yuan coming in, her voice was out of control and said, "Yuan'er, take him away quickly, don't let him come again!" ”
Lin Yuan answered yes, and then took Cheng An out of the door.
At the gate of the Lin Mansion, Lin Yuan sighed and said, "Brother Cheng, you shouldn't stimulate her. Zhenniang has always been in a bad mood. ”
Cheng An received a lot of goods on this trip, he nodded when he listened, and then said goodbye to Lin Yuan.
Cheng An can now be sure that his mother is from Miaojiang, and the saint knows her mother...... Could it be that what the madman said is true? Her mother is the Holy Maiden of Miaojiang, but what about the betrayers in those mouths?
He shook his head and dispelled the thoughts in his heart, thinking to himself, "I need to find another time to ask something from the mouth of the holy woman." ”
At this time, Cheng Lian'er, who was in the palace, had just woken up.
She opened her eyes in a daze, and a figure had already pounced, "Lian'er! Cheng Lian'er heard Meng's voice at this time.
