Qin Liben was still immersed in the joy of receiving the gift given to her by Zhao Sheng. Hearing what Guo said, she only felt sad for the woman in her heart.

"I don't know who she is, but the child can feel that she is an upright person. Presumably, those who put dark arrows in her back to hurt her must be people from the side of some powerful minister. ”

Others, not so bold.

When Guo Shi heard this, he said anxiously:

"Li'er, as soon as your father heard about this, he told me that he was very worried about you. I don't know who the one who hurt the woman was. I don't know if that person will come to our Jiayu Mansion to find out some things. For example, before the woman left Jiayu Mansion, what kind of people did she meet? ”

The woman gave her a box of rouge, which was known to the people who were standing on the barge at the time. Qin Li understood what Guo meant, which meant that he was afraid that the person who had assassinated the woman would come to Jiayu Mansion to find her.

may be even more reluctant to let her go out in the future, worried about what danger she will encounter after she goes out.

In order to reassure Guo, Qin Li said, "Mother, even if that person came to our Jiayu Mansion, I know that the woman sent me a box of rouge before leaving here. But that box of rouge is no longer in our hands, what else do we have to worry about? ”

It was Fu Yu who came to her to take the rouge box on the pretext of helping his friend get the rouge back. Even if someone else finds Jiayu Mansion, they should go to Fu Yu to settle accounts.

Kwok doesn't think so. Shaking his head, he said:

"Li'er, things are far less easy than you think, otherwise, that woman would not have been killed. In recent days, you have been resting at home and not going out. Wei Niang has already gone to talk to Yun'er, let her come and accompany you as soon as she is free. ”

Guo was still a little worried, afraid that the person who had assassinated the woman would come to Jiayu Mansion to find her Li'er and hurt Li'er.

Qin Li felt that Guo was a little worried, but she knew in her heart that even if she said it, Guo would not listen to persuasion. I had to give up.

Thinking back to what happened on the barge before, it seems that you can also find some clues. At this moment, she only hoped that the people in the palace on the other side of the imperial city would find out the murderer of the woman.

Even if people came to Jiayu Mansion to find her and asked her to hand over the note hidden in the rouge box, she was willing.

She still remembers what happened on the barge before. As long as the people in the government asked, she would tell the truth. She believed that the woman was not a bad person, but that the person who had assassinated her must have been a cruel person.

She had to do everything in her power to help them find the woman who had assassinated her.

How to help, that's the question.

Qin Li stretched out his hand and touched his forehead lightly, thinking in his heart that he had to write down some things he knew about the woman in his letters. Then I asked someone to hand it over to Uncle Shi and ask Uncle Shi to help take a look.

At that time, if the imperial city sends someone over, Uncle Shi is still in Jiayu Mansion, and he will definitely know. When Uncle Shi learned about the woman, he showed them the letter.

It's not easy for her to go out, and that's pretty much all she can do.

As soon as Guo Shi left the room, Qin Li walked to the desk and sat down to write a letter. wrote two identical letters together, took one to Qinghe, and asked Qinghe to help her find a reliable person to deliver the letter to Uncle Shi. Another letter, which she kept for herself.

Qinghe took the letter, hid it, and then went out.

After a while, Qinghe returned to the room and said to Qin Li:

"Miss, the letter, the maid has already given it to Miss Yun'er. As soon as Miss Yun'er received the letter, she rode out on a donkey, and rushed to the Jiayu Inn. Miss Yun'er said that even if the maid didn't take the letter, she would go to see Master Shi. ”

Qin Li asked suspiciously:

“……”

Such a coincidence?

Qinghe explained softly: "Miss Yun'er went to see Lord Shi to ask Lord Shi to help her ask, she received a letter from He Chang to her a few days ago, saying that she would return to Jiangnan to take office. But to this day, she has not waited for He Chang to return. ”

Qin Li nodded knowingly.

Counting the days, Sister Yun'er received a letter from Chang'er's brother to her a few days ago. It stands to reason that no matter whether Brother Chang'er comes back on horseback or by boat, it should have arrived.

Qin Li was only looking forward to it in his heart, hoping that He Chang would return safely.

encountered these difficulties, she really wanted to see Zhao Sheng and talk to him about herself. Although I hadn't met him a few times, every time she told him, he could answer.

She was also very satisfied with the answer given to her.

I always feel that chatting with Zhao Sheng is a very enjoyable thing.

But now, if she wants to chat with Zhao Sheng, it's not easy. Because on the day she received the pheasant, she also received a letter from Zhao Sheng to her.

In that letter, Zhao Sheng wrote:

【Ali:

By the time you read this letter, I was on my way back to the Imperial City.

Forgive me for not being able to deliver the pheasant to you in person, and before I left, I didn't have time to say goodbye to you.

But I believe that in the near future, I will be able to return to Jiayu Mansion and visit Ah Li.

This year, I came to Jiayu Mansion and gained a lot. All joy is born of you; Full of anticipation, also because of you.

The pheasant you want, I will go all over the hills and find it for you. You have to keep them alive and don't keep them in cages and stuffy all day long. You can take them for a walk in the bamboo forest at your leisure.

They will not fly away, and will willingly accompany Ah Li forever.

It's cold, go out and dress warmer, remember to bring the hand stove.

Believe you and I will meet again soon.

Ah Li, I wish you a speedy recovery, all the best, and a happy family!

- Ah Sui]

In Zhao Sheng's letter to her, he mentioned his return to the imperial city. After she saw it, she thought that Uncle Shi would also go back with Zhao Sheng, but she didn't expect that her mother told her that Uncle Shi still stayed in Jiayu Mansion to repair the bridge.

Qin Li thought about the recent events of the past few days, and felt that there were some connections between certain things.

For example, the woman she saw on the barge that day was clearly someone known to Chu Xinyan's nurse. If it weren't for that, Ren wouldn't have been a little afraid of that person.

The man didn't know her, but gave her a box of rouge.

She came back and opened it, and the rouge box contained not rouge, but a note.

Qin Li's eyes lit up, and he felt that if he wanted to find out something, he really had to go to Jiayu Port and take a look at the "Qinfang Painting Boat Boat" written on the note.

If you don't go, how can you know why people mention Qinfang's painting boat?

It's just that she hasn't recovered yet, and she has recently encountered such a bad thing, and Guo's management of her is very strict. Day and night, someone would stand guard at the door of her room.

She wanted to go out for a stroll at night, but she couldn't do that.

This kind of thing, it's not good to ask Sister Yun'er to help inquire. In this time and space, there are few women who are willing to go out at night, let alone go to some painting boat.

That night, Qin Li wrote another letter and asked Qinghe to find someone to send to Shi Jinlin. In the letter, she mentioned her opinion that the person who killed the woman was most likely connected with some people in the Chu Mansion.
