Chapter 64: The Flower Girl and the Fragrant Girl (2nd Watch)

"You see, there are footprints on the ground, if we walk in like this, we will destroy these footprints, there should be no one living here for a long time, Shi Yi, you can find a way to pry open the window from the outside."

Shi Yi doesn't know how to pick the lock with a hairpin, but it's easy to pick the window.

The window was soon opened, and as the window opened, a strong fishy smell came to the face, even covering the original smell of incense in the yard.

"Oh my God, where does this smell come from?" As soon as Sting finished speaking, he covered his mouth and ran to the side retching.

There was no blood in the house, and there were no bodies. This is the bedroom, the window kang is spread with bamboo mats, there is a mahogany kang table, there is a five-bat holding longevity blue and white incense burner on the kang table, and there are two blue and white porcelain pillows side by side against the wall.

The house is paved with green bricks on the ground, there are Zhang Linmo flowers and plants hanging on the wall, there is a mahogany table against the wall, and there is a five-bat holding a longevity blue and white porcelain pot on the severity, which should be a set with the incense burner porcelain pillow in the house, this pot should have been planted with narcissus, but it has long been out of season.

Other than that, there was nothing else in the house.

Shi Yi said softly: "After all, it came out of the door of the mansion, and the house used for rent is also arranged so exquisitely. ”

Hua Jingyao also felt the same way, the mahogany kang table and the mahogany table, although the style is outdated, the materials available are exquisite, together with the complete sets of blue and white porcelain, eight or nine times out of ten are old things that the Qian family replaced and did not use.

"Little fox, you ......" Before Hua Jingyao's words fell, the little fox had already jumped into the window.

He squatted on the kang and covered his nose: "Stink, stink, stink, stink, stink!" ”

Hua Jingyao frowned, and said to Shi Yi and Shi Ding, "Roll up the mat!" ”

Soon, the kang swept up, and the first thing that caught my eye was a few drops of dried blood.

"Shi Yi, you let people go to Shuntianfu to report the case, quickly!"

I heard that the report was from the eldest princess's mansion, and the crime occurred in the house of the Qian family, Yin Zhutou took people out without saying a word, and before he walked out of the yamen, Luo Yanzuo chased after him, pointed to the guards who came to report the case, and asked: "Who asked you to come, is it the eldest princess or Miss Huada?" ”

The guard smiled: "Back to Master Luo, we are Ye Yi's subordinates, and now we are all following the eldest lady." ”

"Okay, okay, you wait, I'll go get the guy, let's go together!"

As he spoke, Luo Chengzuo's mellow body was already out of the way.

Hua Jingyao was not surprised to see Luo Yanzuo, who came with Yin Zhutou.

Where there is a murder, there is Luo Yingjun's figure, well, this is written in the book.

"The corpse is inside the kang, you see, this was originally a kang hole, but now it has been built, and the mud from the brick joints has not yet dried. But this is not a person killed here, the killing should be in the courtyard next door. Hua Jingyao said.

Yin Zhutou gave an order, and several officials began to dismantle the kang, Hua Jingyao and her people stood far away, the little fox covered her nose, this poor child, it was smoked.

Luo Yanzuo kept staring at Hua Jingyao: "Miss Hua, you have read the manuscript I sent, and the places I have changed have been marked." ”

Hua Jingyao said: "I've seen it, but what's the matter with the new flower girl you added, is that me?" Can we change the name, Flower Girl, this is too down-to-earth. ”

Luo Yanzuo thinks about it, how can a woman as different as Miss Hua be called a flower girl, vulgar, vulgar!

"Or do you want to be called Miss Hua?" Luo Qizuo asked.

"No, Xiang, my sister is fragrant, called Miss Xiang!" The little fox suddenly squeezed to Hua Jingyao's side, and didn't forget to sniff, only my sister is fragrant here.

"That's right, Miss Xiang, that's a good name." Luo Qizuo nodded frequently.

Hua Jingyao rolled her eyes, is there a difference between a fragrant girl and a flower girl?

To Hua Jingyao's surprise, although the gate was open, there were not many people who came to see the excitement, only two or three people led by the landlord next door.

The landlord's eyes were sharp, and she saw Shi Yi at a glance, and screamed: "Didn't you just rent my house, why did you come next door?" I know, you're a fugitive, and when you saw someone from the yamen coming to arrest you, you fled next door! ”

Hua Jingyao said that she admired it very much, auntie, your imagination is too rich.

"Auntie, why are there only a few of you, what about the other people in this alley, and the two families who live in this courtyard?" Hua Jingyao asked.

"Everyone else, of course, has gone out to do business, don't look at it is afternoon now, although there are fewer people buying incense, but there are more people buying Ping'an brand amulets, that is, we idle people stay at home." The landlady said.

Hua Jingyao asked again: "Then do you know all the people who live in this courtyard?" ”

The landlady looked at Hua Jingyao and hesitated a little.

Hua Jingyao stretched out her hand, Shi Yi took a silver ingot and gave it to her, she handed the silver to the landlady, and the landlady immediately smiled: "I know, there is no one I don't know in this alley." The main house and the West Chamber are not two families, one family, the whole yard is rented by them, and other families in the incense alley are different, they have their own family incense workshop, the monks in Guangji Temple use incense, they are all made by them, they are Changping people, surnamed Tong, come once every five days, this house is when they come to live occasionally. ”

Hua Jingyao understood, this incense shop rented this courtyard, because it only lived occasionally, and there were not many people coming, so the west wing room was always empty, and it was usually locked.

"And their windows are just open? I smell incense inside, the whole alley is selling incense, aren't they afraid of being stolen? Hua Jingyao asked again.

The landlady laughed; "The girl went in and took a look, although they brought a lot of Buddha incense every time, but most of them were sent to the temple, and those who could stay were picked out of the broken branches or remnants, no one stole this, and the few descendants were lazy, so they piled up those residual incense in the house."

Hua Jingyao was about to ask again, when she heard an exclamation from the east chamber.

"It's dug up, hurry up!"

A moment later, several stumps were placed in the courtyard.

Yin Zhutou asked people to deliver a letter to the owner here, and asked the official to close the door, blocking the landlady and others from the outside.

Although Hua Jingyao wanted to see it, Shi Yi and the others were all about to vomit, and the little fox was so smoked that she was about to faint, so in desperation, she had to retreat with them.

After a full hour, a young man who looked like a young man came over and said, "Miss Hua, the villain is from Luofu, my grandfather invites you to come over, well, not to that courtyard, but to the courtyard where you killed people." ”

"Okay." What Hua Jingyao has been waiting for is Luo Yingjun's call.

Shi Yi was a little hesitant, and the corpse pieces dug up from the kang hole, he took a look, and then he vomited, the girl is a person with golden branches and jade leaves, this is ...... Forget it, let's go along.
