Chapter 31: Suspicious
Early the next morning, the Chen Mansion released the news of Mrs. Chen's assassination, and also said that the palace master Chen Wen'an was abducted by the assassins, and his whereabouts are still unknown.
Overnight, the entire Chen Mansion has become a funeral, and it is desolate. The side branches of the Chen Mansion and some small families who are good friends with the Chen Mansion are already preparing to go to mourn. Sect Master Wang was also ready to send a messenger to report to the three major sects of the Southern Sect, the Western Sect, and the Northern Sect.
These are all things that Wen Shu heard from Xiao Er and other guests in the inn.
In order to protect the lord of the palace, Chen Wen'an, it is not surprising that Sect Master Wang said to the outside world that the wife of the sect master was assassinated. And why did Princess Celestia disappear? Or, she felt guilty and left after knowing the truth. Either that, it is related to the two men in black, and the palace master may have been really taken captive.
But all this is just speculation, Wen Shu wants to wait until Wang Jingzhi comes over and discuss it with him. But in the end, she only waited for a small servant, this little guy was not from the Chen Mansion, and she didn't know where Wang Jingzhi found it, but these were not the point.
The little servant handed her a letter, saying that Mrs. Chen had just died, and that as a guest, it was difficult for him to leave, and it was easy to attract attention, and he would come to see her tomorrow. And then there's some news that's circulating outside. What's more, the palace master Chen Wen'an is indeed not in the house. The palace master lost his mother, was in great pain, and had fallen ill. As for Wen Shu's sudden disappearance, he didn't know what the situation was with the palace master.
However, what he said did not solve the doubts in Wen Shu's heart in the slightest.
It's night again.
Wen Shu blew her jade flute to summon Bai Mushuang, at this time, they should go through everything. Wen Shu first told all the stories, and then picked out the doubts.
First of all, what was the Sect Master's wife calling her over for.
Secondly, why is there no one in the courtyard of the sect master's wife.
Again, how could the sect master come so coincidentally.
In the end, the two men in black are not the same group, and where did they come from.
"Don't you doubt Wang Jingzhi?" Bai Mushuang interrupted her.
"I ...... I. ”
"In the end, the first man in black helped Wang Jingzhi escape with you." Bai Mushuang in one word.
Wen Shu frowned, she really didn't want to doubt Wang Jingzhi's head, but how could this be explained.
"If the first man in black was helping him, then why did he kill me before?" Wen Shu analyzed.
"The man in black may be from Nanzong, but not from Wang Jingzhi, or it is possible that he did it on purpose, and then went to save you and let you go back to Nanzong with him. But it's too unlikely. ”
"Why is this too unlikely." Wen Shu was a little unconvinced.
Bai Mushuang said disdainfully: "A woman who is carried away by love~ Think about it, what did you do, he likes you, maybe one day he will empathize and say goodbye."
"Humph!" Wen Shu was so angry with her, how could she talk about her, and she was so venomous.
"Ahem, ahem."
Who?
Gu Wenshu and Bai Mushuang both looked out the window with their voices.
I saw Fu Xiaoling coming in from the window.
"Hehe, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop. I was hanging out the window, and I couldn't hold on. Fu Xiaoling explained as soon as he came in.
Bai Mushuang's face was black, she was exposed, this person saw her true face.
"Fu Xiaoling?" Wen Shu was also puzzled as to how this person could be here.
"Hey, Wenshu." Fu Xiaoling said hello to Wen Shu like no one else, and then turned to Bai Mushuang: "Who is this?" ”
"My friend." Wen Shu continued. Wen Shu also realized that Fu Xiaoling was the only one other than her who had seen Bai Mushuang. Bai Mushuang still didn't speak, she was hesitating to kill him, knowing the secret between her and Wen Shu, she naturally wanted to die, but she was not a person who was difficult to kill innocents.
"Oh, hello. Ha ha. Fu Xiaoling was still smiling, but Bai Mushuang just ignored him, which made Fu Xiaoling's face stiffen in embarrassment, and then put away his smile.
"What are you doing here?" Wen Shu asked.
"Before practicing Bingyue, let me save you if I encounter you in danger."
"Xiao Qian!"
"That's right, I happened to be around here recently, and I knew that something had happened to the Chen Mansion, so I went to take a look, and I actually found that you were missing. I wonder if there were assassins, they wouldn't have taken you captive. I just heard the sound of the flute, so I came over to take a look, and then I saw the two of you. ”
"What a coincidence?" Bai Mushuang said lightly.
"I really heard the sound of the flute before I came here." Fu Xiaoling explained.
"I'm fine, you tell Xiaoqian that I'm okay, let her rest assured."
"Oh. However, what you just said ......" Fu Xiaoling said tentatively, looking at Wen Shu for a while, and Bai Mushuang for a while.
Wen Shu and Bai Mushuang heard his words and looked at him in unison.
"Say." Bai Mushuang motioned for Fu Xiaoling to continue.
Fu Xiaoling was also not polite, so he moved the stool next to him and sat down.
"Hehe, the first man in black helped Wang Jingzhi, no matter what his purpose, he must be someone related to Nanzong. And the second man in black...... You don't usually offend anyone, so this man in black should be sent by Sect Master Chen or the Great Palace Master to kill him. If the sect master can arrive by chance, there must be someone to guide him, and the person who guides him should not want the sect master's wife or you to die. This person is most likely Wang Jingzhi. Then the sect master's wife is looking for you, and I think she wants to kill you, so she cleared the people in the courtyard so that no traces were left. ”
"How could it be, why did the sect master's wife kill me well." Wen Shu retorted.
"I don't know, who knows what you've done. can clean up the people in the courtyard, the palace master will never be able to do it, and the sect master has no reason to do it, only the sect master's wife. ”
Bai Mushuang finally said: "But this is just speculation. ”
It's not that they didn't think of it, but the guess isn't necessarily true.
"This is easy to do, grab someone and ask." Fu Xiaoling looked like this was not very simple, and he was very unbeaten.
Wen Shu thought for a while and said, "Who to arrest, I'm afraid only the people around the sect master's wife know best." Spring, summer, autumn and winter are the people who the suzerain's wife gave to the palace master, as for whether they are working hard for the suzerain's wife, I don't know, not to mention that they have a cold face all day long, and their spiritual power is not low, so it is difficult to say what they will not necessarily say. That...... Xiao Nian, she is the person next to the sect master's wife, and she treats me and Xiao Qian very well. ”
Fu Xiaoling snapped her fingers and said, "It's her, I'll arrest her tomorrow night." ”
"Let's discuss things, why do you want to take him" Bai Mushuang looked at Wen Shu coldly, ignoring Fu Xiaoling.
"You told him to say it at first." Wen Shu pursed her lips and said.
"Yes." Bai Mushuang regretted it a little. Why did the two of them talk with such a guy?
After Fu Xiaoling finished speaking, there was nothing more to say, so he turned the window and left.
Bai Mushuang was also leaving, but before leaving, Bai Mushuang said silently: "According to the usual law, you will empathize and say goodbye." ”
Wen Shu was stunned for a moment: "What? Law? And also! What kind of empathy don't love, it's usual, this is the first time I like people. ”
