Yao Minghao thought that only the murderer would come to the scene of the murder, but he didn't expect to arrest three people at once, he took these people to the main building, and at the same time he was still worried about Lu Jue, if he couldn't identify who the murderer was, or wronged others, wouldn't it be a big deal this time.

But when he escorted a few people back to the hall of the main building, he didn't see Lu Jue's figure, and when he was wondering, he saw him and a few people actually coming out of the guest room downstairs, and saw that his expression was wrong, so he immediately stepped forward and asked, "Brother, what's the matter." ”

Lu Jue swept the Lu Yin brothers and sisters who were accompanying him, glanced at Yuexiu again and said, "I guessed right, she really attacked him!" Then he turned his head and asked, "How are you?" ”

Yao Minghao glanced at him and said, "I knew you were not at ease with me." He raised his hand and pointed at the few people who were tied: "You still have to think about how you should solve it first." "Squinting at Lu Jue, his expression was full of 'let you laugh at me, it's time for you to make a fool of yourself.'

The people who were arrested were Lu Si, the innkeeper, Lu Dapeng, who came with the deceased, and then Lu Chen, a businessman.

Lu Jue smiled, stepped forward a few steps, leaned over slightly, and said, "A few of you are really good Yaxing!" Let's talk about it, in the dead of night, why don't you rest in your room, why do you go to the scene of the crime? "And those people, you look at me, I look at you, and no one has the intention of speaking first. Lu Jue snorted and straightened up, and said with a fierce face: "It's all at this time, there's no point in hiding it anymore, it's better to tell the truth." ”

Lu Si's eyes rolled and he spoke first: "You guys are misunderstanding, there are too many guests at the Snow Inn in the sky, I'm going there to find out if there is anything else that can be used, I'm not a murderer at all, besides, besides, at that time, I was in the room with Yuexiu discussing the repertoire to be performed on the second day, how could I kill someone." ”

Lu Jue slapped the table and said sharply: "If Zhengda is bright, why don't you carry the lamp, why do you have to sneak around." Don't shy away from the important and say something useful. ”

"I, this" Suddenly, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Lu Dapeng, pointed the finger at him, and said: "He, he comes here with Lu Zhong every time to blackmail, he has said more than once that Lu Zhong is the most shameful of this kind of behavior, and he also said that this kind of person is not worthy of pity when he dies." ”

When Lu Dapeng heard this, he was angry and scared, and explained again and again: "Don't listen to his nonsense, if I think I am a murderer because I said that, then 、、、、、、" pointed at Lu Chen and said: "His suspicion is greater, because I saw him follow his wife to the backyard that night, and not long after the two of them came out, Lu Zhong died, and he must have killed him." ”

As soon as his voice fell, Feng Jianniang rushed out of the crowd, pointed at Lu Dapeng's nose and scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about, don't spew blood, who went to the backyard in the middle of the night, these words spread out to let me be a woman." ”

Yuexiu, who was standing behind Lu Jue, sneered at this time, and sneered for some reason: "If people don't know what they don't do, they know what they've done." ”

Feng Jianniang twisted her thin waist and walked to Yuexiu, and said angrily while pushing: "If the stinky girl has a sentence, just say a word, don't beat around the bush." ”

Yuexiu snorted and said: "So many people's filthy words, speaking them will only pollute everyone's ears, you don't feel ashamed, I'm ashamed!" ”

Feng Jianniang smiled and put her hands crossed on her chest, glanced at Yuexiu, and snorted: "Yes! For the sake of glory and wealth, some people are willing to leave their childhood sweethearts and marry a wealthy businessman who is more than 20 years older than themselves, but they are still restless and self-conscious, do not abide by women's morals, and fornicate with others, and are caught and raped in bed by others, and everyone knows that they are not ashamed to show up and sing in this inn full of outsiders, and they are 、、、、、、 to see lovely."

"Don't spew blood." Yuexiu blushed angrily and shouted to interrupt her.

Feng Jianniang glanced at her and still said mercilessly: "Miss Yuexiu is so annoyed, could it be that the person who talked about it after dinner is you." ”

Yuexiu looked at the people in this room, she was ashamed and annoyed, and she stepped forward and slapped Jiao Niang.

How could Feng Jianniang bear this anger, she was instantly annoyed, and she didn't care about the woman's Derong, so she actually started to fight with Yuexiu. None of the people gathered on the side stepped forward to dissuade them, firstly, because no one in the official family dared to overstep their responsibilities; The second is that no one wants to get into bad luck in the life lawsuit, but just whispers that no one will take a step forward.

The two of them shouted so loudly that Lu Jue couldn't help but have a headache, slapped the table, and shouted: "Someone came to pull these two people out and slap their mouths twenty."

"Yes," the two guards stepped forward.

The sound worked, and the two women immediately stopped fighting, and one stood trembling as if he had his palms on his lips, while the other appeared calm.

And Lu Yin, who had been bowing his head, suddenly stepped forward to stop the guard for some reason, knelt on the ground and said: "My lord, I am angry, this matter has nothing to do with others, I killed him." ”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked; Some secretly scolded him for letting himself bear the guilt; Some are secretly relieved.

When his sister Xing'er heard this, she hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed his arm, and said anxiously: "Brother, what are you talking nonsense, 、、、、、、 that night"

Lu Jue glanced at Yuexiu, turned his head and asked, "What you say now is very different from what you said before, which sentence should I believe you?" ”

Lu Yin quietly looked at Yuexiu, and she stood there with a calm face. My heart seemed to be cut again and again, I lowered my eyebrows, full of self-blame: "What I said to adults before was all lies, and the students thought that they had a few sides with adults and had been favored by adults, so they were afraid to hide from adults, thinking that they could be safe, but who knew that they were suffering in just a few hours, and now they will feel good when they tell the truth!" ”

Where is Xing'er willing to believe it, knelt in front of Lu Jue and begged: "My lord, my brother didn't kill anyone, my brother has always been with me, all the people tell is the truth, please don't listen to my brother, he is 、、、、、、"

"Xing, stop defending my brother, I killed the person, ask the adult to punish the crime." After speaking, he prostrated to the ground.

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Lu Jue did not ask too much, but turned back to the case and said: "Okay, in this case, there are a few doubts on the scene in this seat, please Brother Lu to solve the doubts, as long as it is consistent with the facts of the case, you don't need to ask, this seat will definitely enforce the law impartially." If there is a mistake, even if you want to atonement to the sin, then you have to see if the law allows it. He took the glass of water and moistened his throat and continued: "You have already had a conflict with the deceased, why can you kill people quietly the second time. ”

Lu Yin thought for a while and said, "I sneaked in quietly while he was asleep, he was naturally unprepared." ”

Lu Jue nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll ask you again, the deceased can wear clothes when you go." ”

"He was covered with a quilt, and the students didn't see it clearly." Then he thought that something was wrong, if he was wearing clothes, Lu Jue would not have asked so, and immediately changed his words: "I didn't wear it." ”

"This seat has surveyed the scene, and the atmosphere there looks like a tryst with a beautiful woman, you don't want to tell this seat that you have Longyang!" It's full of doubts.

Lu Yin was speechless for this question, avoiding Lu Jue's gaze and lowering his head without knowing what to think, after a while, he suddenly stood up, rushed to the guard standing aside in a few steps, pulled out his saber, and said: "Why do you want to dig deeper, just one life and one life." He raised his knife and wiped it off his neck.

"Brother." Apricot screamed, her eyes went dark, and she collapsed on the ground.

And Yuexiu just took a step, stopped moving after realizing something, and stopped there and didn't take a step forward.

At this moment, a cold light suddenly flashed, and a flying knife slashed through Lu Yin's wrist and nailed it to the pillar, and the steel knife also fell. Lu Jue breathed a long sigh of relief, turned his head and saw Zhu Gui standing in that inconspicuous corner as if he was fine.

"Brother" Xing'er was the first to rush to Lu Yin's side, pulling out a handkerchief and covering the wound.

Lu Jue looked at Lu Yin with disappointment and anger, and reprimanded: "It's not that one life for one life can calm the incident. A sharp glance at Yuexiu said, "I'm afraid that someone won't appreciate it at all." He sat down at the table and continued: "Several suspects I have identified have come to talk to me, and I have asked a word before they left, and several of them have answered roughly the same thing, but only one of them has a different answer, according to all indications, this person is the murderer, and that person is 、、、、、、."

Yuexiu staggered Lu Jue's gaze, struggled for a moment and tried her best to shout: "I killed Lu Zhong, don't embarrass others." ”

Lu Yin took a step forward, still stubbornly saying: "I killed everyone who was an adult. ”

Yuexiu looked at him unappreciatively, and said indignantly: "Don't be a good person anymore, I killed people, if it wasn't for the adults to prepare early, I would have killed you, what kind of person am I, you know in your heart, don't be stupid anymore!" ”

But Yao Minghao, who was standing on the side, seemed to have a feeling of being used as a gun, squinting at Lu Jue, who was not surprised at all, holding the table with his hand, leaning down and saying, "Brother, you shouldn't have known who the murderer is!" ”

"I'll tell you about that later." Turning to Yuexiu, he said with a flat face: "Since you have spoken, let's say everything." ”

Yuexiu reminisced and said: "Since I was a child, my parents died, and I have been living under the fence at my uncle's house. But when I was sixteen years old, I was taken by a wealthy merchant, and my uncle forcibly tied me up for the sake of wealth and wealth, regardless of my opposition, and from that moment on, I not only bore the name of hating the poor and loving the rich, but was also driven out of the house by the jealous concubine. Lonely and helpless, I had nowhere to go, but wandered away, and just when I was helpless, I was taken in by a kind man, and just when I thought it was God's eyes, it was another joke, and although I was reluctant to commit myself to him, I also lived a peaceful life for two years.

But such days also stopped half a year ago, all the peaceful days were broken by Luzhong, I lived a dark day again, I felt dirty in the face of such people all day long, I thought more than once about death, but looking back on my death, how can those who have harmed me get retribution.

Finally, the emperor lived up to his wishes, and several people I hated gathered together. As expected, those people just met and started all kinds of quarrels, and soon after Lu Zhong was beaten one after another! How can he bear this kind of anger, I made him lose face before, he came to me again, I said all the good things to avoid a violence to appease him, then I knew that this was the perfect opportunity, a few sweet words invited him into the backyard, he thought that I had a good thing with him, but I didn't know that it was a gathering in the Yellow Springs. When I drove the nail into the top of his head and looked into his eyes that were wide in horror, I felt a joy that I had never felt before, and my world was finally missing a dirty thing! ”

Lu Si, who was tied, stood up with great effort and said indignantly: "Yuexiu, I kindly took you in, and bothered to ask someone to teach you to sing, you killed people in my store, aren't you harming me!" "People who are a little smart can understand who this 'kind-hearted person' is, but Lu Si at this time is stupid.

As soon as his voice fell, Yuexiu was close to madness, pointing at Lu Si and saying angrily: "If it weren't for you, how could I be like this again, I am committed to you again and again, isn't this a reward!" If Ah Yin hadn't known about my murder, the second person to die would have been you. She looked around at everyone and said with a wry smile: "None of the men can be trusted, they are all sweet words when they need you, and push you out when they are in danger." Anyway, I have no regrets at this time. With a sad smile, he picked up the steel knife and broke himself.

The incident happened too suddenly, and everyone was already shocked on the spot, and when they came back to their senses, the flying knife in Zhu Gui's hand had not yet been shot, and it was already too late, Yuexiu's blood gushed out and splashed on the nearby people.

"Yuexiu." Lu Yin rushed forward, held her in his arms, and tightly clutched her wounds, but the blood still flowed down his fingers without replenishing anything. Lu Yin looked around and saw Liu Fuling, who had already walked here, and begged bitterly: "Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu, please save her, save her." ”

Liu Fuling didn't say anything, squatted down to inspect the wound, the wound was so deep that it was bone-deep, and the blood flowed more than once it had been cut to the point, so even the divine doctor was helpless, he shook his head and sighed and stood up.

Seeing that no one was rescued, Lu Yin still refused to accept it although he knew the facts, and clung to the corner of Liu Ling's robe and begged bitterly: "Mr. Liu, you are the descendant of the divine doctor, there must be a way, please Mr. Liu, as long as you save her, the student will be a slave and a servant." ”

Liu Fuling was embarrassed: "She has cut the key point, and I can't do anything, she has little time to say goodbye to her!" ”

Lu Jue gave Night Wind a look and left first, and after a while, there were only two people left in the hall.

Lu Yin held her hand tightly and looked sad: "I'm sorry, I still can't help you." ”

Yuexiu smiled lightly, raised her hand to stroke his face and said, "Do you hate me?" I was just going to kill you. ”

Lu Yin shook his head again and again and held the hand covering her face, and said: "If I hate you, I won't ask you again and again, you have always been the most important person in my heart, you killed that person well, if I had known, I would have killed him without hesitation." ”

Yuexiu smiled sadly and said: "Ah Yin, I'm sorry, in my life, the most sorry person is you, if there is an afterlife, I must, meet again, you, and 、、、、、、" Before the words were finished, a wisp of incense returned to Huangquan.

Lu Yin hugged her tightly in his arms, and did not mourn for the sky, but he didn't know how many hearts were broken.

The sun is getting white in the east, the snow that has fallen for a few hours has stopped for some time, and the winter sun is particularly dazzling on the snow, and the clear sky is not difficult to say that it is a good weather. The team of dozens of people was ready, just waiting for Lu Jue's order to set off, but this person was standing on the snow far away from the team, looking into the distance without any intention of leaving.

Yao Minghao jumped off the horse, walked to Liu Ling, who was parked in the carriage, looked at Lu Jue who was standing in the distance, touched him with his elbow and said, "What's the matter with my brother, standing there and not moving or talking." ”

Liu Fuling glanced back at him, then turned her head to look at Lu Jue, and then said, "He has something on his mind, don't worry, I'll ask." ”

"Well, you tell him that the road is not good, don't let him delay the hour and miss the time to enter the city."

Liu Lingling answered and walked in the direction where Lu Jue was.

Lu Jue changed into a plain brocade robe today, wearing a plain brocade cloak inlaid with wool, which blended into the white expanse. The warm winter sun shone on his body, except for the slight tiredness, that temperament was undoubtedly demonstrated. He raised his eyes and looked at the two brothers and sisters kneeling in front of the grave not far away, his mind turned and sighed a few times, a lonely grave isolated there distracted his thoughts, and when he was slightly distracted, he heard the sound of footsteps behind him, turned his head Liu Lingling had arrived at his side, and sighed softly and said: "Tell Old Marquis Han to wait for a while, I will ask him a few words and leave." ”

"Yes" Liu Lingling stopped and took the order, and waited for Lu Jue to move forward before returning.

Lu Jue moved over, squatted down and reached out to pick up the paper money in the basket, and while throwing the paper money into the fire one by one, he said: "There is an emergency in Beijing, I am inconvenient to stay here longer, I don't know if you are willing to return to Beijing with me." It is not difficult to see from this that Lu Jue has a plan, it is understandable that he will ascend the throne as soon as he returns to Beijing this time, and the old ministers of the court can be trusted, but as a civil emperor, the foundation is unstable, and he still has to have one or two henchmen who can rest assured, and he is a soldier for himself.

Lu Yin heard what Lu Jue meant, and he had thanked him for his kindness more than once, but Yuexiu had just died, so he could only say that he didn't have any thoughts at this time, he threw the paper money in his hand into the fire, turned around and knelt down to Lu Jue and said with a deep apology: "The student is going to let down the adults, Yuexiu has just passed away, and the student has been responsible for her for many years, and at this time I just want to guard her grave for a while." ”

Lu Jue didn't ask too much, but said helplessly: "You can think about it, if you miss this spring, you will have to wait for three years!" ”

Lu Yin said resolutely: "The student understands what the adult means, and I owe it to her." Turning his head to look at Xing'er, he said apologetically: "It's just that I'm going to be bitter for my sister." ”

Xing'er understood her brother, and said without a trace of complaint: "I listen to my brother all." ”

Lu Jue was no longer reluctant, he stood up and said: "Since this is the case, I will no longer force you, I will inform you in the capital, if you want to figure it out, go to the capital, this opportunity will always be reserved for you." ”

"Thank you, student, for your grace." There is nothing that is not grateful, and the gift attached to the ground is full of sincerity.

Lu Jue patted the dust off his hands, waved his hand and said: "Okay, get up, if you really want to be grateful, don't let me wait in the capital for a long time, you are repaying this woman's love, but you still owe your sister, as a brother, you have the obligation to let her live a good life, and it is for your sister's face to show mercy to you." After reaching out and picking up Xing'er, he continued: "This case is over, I have punished the person who should be punished, the inn has no owner at this time, I have put it in your name, you can worry about it here, but I still hope that you will enter Beijing as soon as possible!" ”

Lu Yin kowtowed again and said, "The student will definitely not disappoint the adult." ”

Lu Jue didn't bother talking to him anymore, returned to the team alone, and got into the carriage with the support of Liu Fuling.

Liu Lingling then boarded the carriage and shouted: "Let's go." Then I picked up the curtain and went in. Seeing him holding the curtain of the car and looking out, he was about to say something, but when he saw his appearance, he swallowed back and sat aside.

It wasn't until he couldn't see the two brothers and sisters anymore that Lu Jue put down the curtains of the car, leaned on the soft pillow, and stared down at the scars on his palms, not knowing what he was thinking.

Yang Wei poured a cup of hot water, handed him a soft voice, and said, "The prince has been freezing outside for a long time, drink a cup of ginseng tea to warm up!"

Hearing the voice, Lu Jue came back to his senses, smiled and took the teacup and said, "Thank you." ”

Yang Wei has been a slave for many years, and when he saw Lu Jue's expression, he understood that he was uncomfortable, and lifted the blanket to put on his body for him and said: "The prince doesn't have to be in a hurry, some things are not necessarily worse than early, it's better to let it be." ”

Lu Jue hadn't replied yet, and Liu Lingling spoke first: "It's not worth worrying about this kind of person, I don't know if he's stupid or stupid!" ”

"Don't laugh at other people's infatuation, love is the most difficult; Just ask how many people in the world can do without desires and without desires, and abandon the six desires; Even if it is the morning drum of Muyu, isn't it out of love for the Buddha! Mo Dao is early, Mo Dao is late, don't let yourself regret it. Put down the ginseng tea in his hand, lowered his head and straightened his cuffs, looked at the delicate brocade of the cuffs, and smiled lightly, the corners of his mouth were tender, but fortunately he didn't miss it.
