Lin Yanyan washed his hands and changed his clothes, and stood in the backyard of Xiao Qian's mansion facing the ginkgo tree on the partition wall.

Unexpectedly, the backyard of this mansion was connected to the courtyard of the Tao family.

Is this a coincidence or an intention?

It is said that he is a prince, even if he is no longer favored, he will not live in such a humble place.

Xiao Qian took a bath, changed into a moon-white sleeved robe, and the smell of pig dung was gone, and he was refreshed. When he went to the study, he saw that Lin Yanyan was not there, and asked Feng Ling, who said that he saw Zhen Gongzi go to the backyard.

Xiao Qian came to the backyard and saw Lin Yanyan standing in the yard in a daze against the wall.

"What are you looking at?"

"It's nothing, I just think this ginkgo grows well." It was planted by her father and her when she was ten years old, and after almost ten years, the small sapling had grown into a large tree with lush branches.

"I think so too, I took a fancy to this ginkgo when I bought this house, even though it is not my own."

"Do you know whose house is over there?"

"The Tao family, the home of the imperial physician Tao Weicheng."

Lin Yanyan pretended to be surprised: "Wasn't the Tao family beheaded by the whole house?" ”

Xiao Qian's eyes were solemn: "Yes, the Nine Clans, there are a total of fifty-nine people." ”

Lin Yanyan felt a pain in his heart: "I hope we can find out the truth of the year as soon as possible." ”

Xiao Qian nodded: "Yes." ”

"By the way, I heard that the pottery house was haunted a while ago." Lin Yanyan said tentatively, before she suspected that there was a fourth person in the Tao Mansion that night, and now she suspected that this person was Xiao Qian.

"That's right, I heard the movement that night and went over to take a look, and caught two thieves, but they didn't succeed, and they were scared by a female ghost."

"Really? The Tao family has been raided, so there should be nothing to steal! ”

"That's not necessarily, the whereabouts of the Tao family's ancestral medical book "Lingxi Codex" are unknown, many people speculate that this medical book is still in the Tao family, I found some clues that night, that female ghost should be someone related to the Tao family, what everyone is looking for, may have fallen into her hands." Xiao Qian was also tempting, noticing the subtle changes in expression on her face.

Why Tao Siyu's silver needle bag was in her hand was a mystery that he couldn't figure out.

Lin Yanyan is still very calm, although his guess is good, he will definitely not be able to contact her.

Where did she want to get the silver needle bag that Xiao Qian recognized Tao Siyu.

"So, you spread the rumors of the haunting? Want to lure the snake out of the hole? ”

Xiao Qian smiled bitterly: "A failed strategy." ”

Lin Yanyan said: "Let's not talk about the Tao family, let's go back to the study." ”

The study was brightly lit, and Xiao Qian looked at the corner of the letter that Lin Yanyan had found: "The flying eagle is indeed the totem of Beidi, could this be the contact signal of Beidi's fine work?" ”

"It is very likely that Meng Chao found this mutilated letter paper by chance and hid it, but was discovered by the other party, so he was killed. By the way, did you send someone to Meng's house? ”

"Sent, I'll tell them not to act rashly, keep an eye on the person who comes, and see where he returns."

Put a long line to catch big fish, if this person is really Beidi's meticulous work, maybe this time he can uproot Beidi's nails in the capital. Lin Yanyan was in a good mood: "I have a big harvest tonight, I can go back to sleep with confidence." ”

"I'll send you back."

"No, you can just change a horse for me."

The horse that was stained with pig dung, she didn't want to ride it.

"Or send it." Although she wore men's clothes, she was a woman after all, and it was not safe to travel alone at night. And now she is the main force in solving the case, and many clues have been discovered by her, especially to find this broken letter paper, which is a great contribution, and her safety must be ensured.

Xiao Qian sent Lin Yanyan to the side door of Moyuan Pavilion, and watched her enter the door before turning around.

"Miss, why did you change your clothes?" Tan Yun saw that the young lady's body did not fit and was obviously a little longer, and her curiosity couldn't be suppressed.

Obviously, the young lady went out after dinner with a man, and he was a man who was a cut above the young lady.

"My clothes are dirty."

"What about the dirty clothes?"

Lin Yanyan disagreed: "Throw it away." ”

She can't say that she fell into Xiao Qian's house!

Tan Yun: ...... Miss is really a loser, the above material is the best rain brocade, it is better than dozens of taels, and it is thrown away.

Before dawn, Xiao Qian was woken up by Feng Ling.

"Your Highness, Qi Qi and Luan Yu are back."

Xiao Qian immediately got out of bed, put on his robe and went to the study.

"How's it going?"

Qi Qi said: "Back to His Royal Highness, just after the time of the child, if someone really entered the Meng Mansion, he stayed in it until the end of the ugly hour before leaving, we have been following him, this person's kung fu is good, we dare not follow too close, just see him enter the house in Dongping Lane, and never come out." The address has been written down. ”

Qi Qi said and handed over a piece of paper.

Xiao Qian glanced at it and asked, "What is the height of that person?" ”

"About seven feet, about the same as a subordinate." Luan Yu replied.

"This is a good errand, you go down and rest!" Xiao Qian was very satisfied.

It seems that Lin Yanyan is right again, the footprints are disguised, and this person really brought a pair of shoes to the Meng family to hide his height.

Qi Qi and Luan Yu retreated, and Xiao Qian said, "Feng Ling, isn't your sister looking for something to do?" ”

"yes, she's wild." Feng Ling said distressedly.

"Then find something for her to do, and in the future, she will be responsible for going to the Moyuan Pavilion of the Ding'an Hou Mansion to run errands, and secretly protect the safety of Miss Lin." Today, Lin Yanyan asked him to change someone, and he thought about it, Feng Ling's sister Feng Hua was the most suitable candidate. Huahua's skills are above Feng Ling, and she is playful and lively, looking harmless to humans and animals, and deceptive.

The case progressed, Xiao Qian's whole person became excited, freshened up and went to Shuntian Mansion, and rushed into the house to check the owner of the house in Dongping Lane.

Then a familiar name appeared.

Guo Yongli.

It was actually Guo Yongli.

"Lord Xiao, I heard that you came to Yamen early in the morning, did you not make progress in the case and couldn't sleep?" Lu Zhaonan recuperated for half a day and a night, and he was in good spirits, and he also came to the yamen early, and when he heard that Xiao Qian's house was found.

Xiao Qian took out Guo Yongli's household registration book and explained to the officials in the household: "For the investigation of the case, I will take it away first and return it in a few days." ”

The little official smiled shyly: "Lord Xiao just take it, don't lose it." ”

Out of the house, Lu Zhaonan handed over a bag of steamed buns: "Your favorite Wang Ji meat bun, I deliberately took a detour to buy it, let me tell you, it is important to investigate the case, and it is even more important to eat, and only when you are full can you have the strength to use your brain, right?" ”

Xiao Qian took a bun and took a bite of it, full of meat: "There is something you said wrong, I didn't come early because the case didn't progress, I couldn't sleep because I was excited because the case made too much progress." ”

Lu Zhaonan was dumbfounded: "What happened after I left yesterday?" Why did the case suddenly make a major discovery? What am I missing? ”

Xiao Qian stretched out his hand: "Another bun." ”
