Chapter 19: Su Mu, let's see!
In the medicine house, the fog is thick.
The fire under the Dan furnace did not stop all night.
Nian Xiu shook his fan, "Actually, the slave doesn't understand too much, the master has been looking for that person, since Jinyiwei has news, why don't you go and investigate?" Maybe ......"
"Shen Dongzhan deceived me, why did you believe it?" Su Mu drank tea indifferently and looked at the candle flame that was flickering and flickering.
Nian Xiu was stunned, "Lie to you? ”
"I was a little surprised at the time, but now that I think about it, there are traces of my search for people." Su Mu put down the cup in his hand, "It's not surprising that he can guess." ”
Nian Xiu nodded, "Then why don't you cheat him?" ”
"Stupid." Su Mu sneered, "Do you really think he will go?" ”
Yearly repair: "......"
"If you don't believe me, go and see." Su Mu didn't stop it.
Young people should be a little curious, and curiosity will be self-motivated.
Yes, Nian Xiu really went quietly.
The black lights are blind, and the rockeries in the back garden are only Nian Xiu and Zhou Nan, staring at each other with big eyes and small eyes.
"Gelding."
"Waste."
Every man goes back to his own house, and every man looks for his master.
In this regard, Shen Dongzhan was not half surprised, the sharp carving knife was pinched in his hand, and the wood in his hand was carved very carefully, as if it was a person, but it only began to take shape, and he didn't know who he carved it was.
"Master?" Zhou Nan held his breath.
Shen Dongzhan blew a mouthful of sawdust in his hand, "Didn't anyone go?" ”
Zhou Nan let out a low "um", and poured himself a glass of water to drink.
This was within Shen Dongzhan's expectations, "It's just that you deceived Su Mu, but you took it seriously, Su Mu is so easy to be fooled, Luan Sheng will accept her as a righteous son and let her be the second-in-command of Dongchang?" ”
Zhou Nan was speechless.
"This is revealed, how is the woman's affairs investigated?" Shen Dongzhan asked.
Zhou Nan sat down, "No one in the mansion dares to mention it, and the humble post has been wandering around outside for a while, but some old people who are older still remember some things, it is said that it was more than ten years ago, and the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion at that time was often haunted." ”
"Haunted?" Shen Dongzhan frowned slightly, he didn't believe this.
Zhou Nan nodded matter-of-factly, "Yes, when I passed outside the wall of the Marquis of Dingyuan Mansion at night, I could hear crying, and it was just crying, nothing else." The old man said, it's the wall to the north! ”
To the north, that's where the North Garden is located, that is......
The cry came from this woman?
"What else did you say?" Shen Dongzhan asked.
Zhou Nan continued, "The old man also said that the ghost cry began on a rainy day, and that night it rained so hard that the next day all the fields outside the city were flooded, and there was a flood. ”
It was because of the flood that the old man remembered it clearly.
"When you're old, you still remember it so clearly?" Shen Dongzhan lifted his eyes and glanced at him indifferently.
Zhou Nan hurriedly explained, "No, it's because there was another incident that night, a murder outside the wall, it is said that two men passing by were scared to death in the alley, which alarmed the people of the government office." ”
"Dead?" Shen Dongzhan's calm eyes finally opened up a little ripple, "Who is the one who died?" ”
A man passing by?
He didn't believe it.
"I don't know, because it is related to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, and the people in the government have not dared to speak out, about the identity of these two men......" Zhou Nan shook his head, "Most of them have to be inspected in the file room of the government office." ”
Shen Dongzhan continued to carve the wooden figure in his hand, "No family is looking for it?" ”
"The old man didn't say anything." Zhou Nan didn't ask.
With a light snort between his noses, Shen Dongzhan flicked his sleeves and put the wooden figure and the carving knife on the table together, "Then what are you still stunned about?" ”
Zhou Nan was stunned for a moment, and immediately saluted, "Let's go check on the lowly position!" It's just that I don't understand, we're here to get the account book, why are we fighting with a dead man? There is a dead person in the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, and it doesn't seem to have much to do with our business. ”
"Hit a snake and hit seven inches, what do you know?" Shen Dongzhan narrowed his dangerous eyes, "Do you think what the emperor wants is an account book?" ”
Zhou Nan was shocked, "In addition to the account book, the emperor wants anything else?" ”
"What the emperor wants...... It's the life of the Marquis of Dingyuan! Shen Dongzhan's voice was steep.
Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, if you can't even figure out the emperor's true thoughts, sooner or later you will die!
Zhou Nan was horrified, the emperor was not seeking wealth, but dying!
"The walls of Beiyuan are so high, and the defense is so tight, it can be seen that ...... This may be the weakness of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion. Shen Dongzhan took a deep breath, "The people from Dongchang must have started an investigation. ”
Suddenly, Shang Yuncha's voice came from outside, "Young Master Yu, are you there?" ”
Shen Dongzhan hooked his finger, and Zhou Nan stepped forward immediately.
The master and servant bit their ears for a while, and Zhou Nan saluted and walked out quickly.
Su Mu, let's see.
