The pavilion is quiet, the peach blossoms not far away are blooming brilliantly, piled up, and green fruits with beans are already emerging on the branches.

The peach tree fell petals on the ground, and a gust of wind blew, and a new layer of clothing was laid.

"Third Miss." Qi Ran glanced at the woman in front of her, and her tone was soft and apologetic, "The hairpin in the murderer's hand belongs to my second sister, I can't deny this, but my second sister has never done such a thing." ”

Li Mingyun looked at the sister and brother in front of him, nodded and said, "I know it wasn't her who did it." ”

Qi Ran was stunned.

She came today for the second sister, and she thought that it would take a lot of words to convince the woman in front of her, but she didn't expect it to go so well.

She was a little curious, so she asked.

"Why is the third lady sure that my second sister didn't do this?"

Of course, Miss Qi Er has no money!

The spring rain behind me muttered in my heart.

Although the young lady just explained to her that Miss Qi Er was unpretentious and had no extra spare money.

But in her opinion, that's what it meant.

Li Mingyun curled his lips and smiled: "I guess." ”

said that she guessed, but no one believed that she really guessed, after all, this is a life-threatening event, not a child's house.

Qi Ran smiled when she heard this, her face gentle.

"The third lady is really smart." She praised.

Not only smart, but also very polite.

If it were another woman, I was afraid that there would be a fight, how could she be so calm.

And I can't tell that this person has experienced life and death at all.

It seems that Miss Qin has a little misunderstanding of her.

Li Mingyun also smiled at her, very friendly.

"I have asked my second sister, and she said that she wore the hairpin a few days ago, and because of the new hairpin these days, the one was put aside at will, and for some reason it ended up in the hands of others."

Although Li Mingyun believed that the second sister didn't do it, Qi Ran still explained the hairpin, which was the least attitude.

"There must be a reason why it goes into the hands of others." Li Mingyun said, "Either the people in the house took it out, or the people from outside mixed in, either way, there are traces to follow." ”

She couldn't go to Qi Mansion to find evidence, so this aspect could only be investigated by the people of Qi Mansion.

How did Qin Ruxin get the hairpin, except that the people in the Qi Mansion were bought, she went into the Qi Mansion to get it herself.

Of course, at present, she can't tell Qi Ran about her guess to them, and if she locks Qin Ruxin just by hiring a man in black, they will also find it incredible.

After all, Qin Ruxin has a good relationship with Qi Fang, if she has no evidence, she will speculate at will and frame others.

Qi Ran said approvingly: "Someone has been sent to investigate in the past two days, and at most tomorrow, the suspicious person can be found out." ”

Li Mingyun smiled and nodded.

"Third Miss, please rest assured, our family has the unshirkable responsibility to do this, and we will definitely find out the mastermind behind the scenes." Qi Xun, who was silent on the side, finally opened his mouth and saluted at the same time.

Although his tone was calm and there was no emotion, everyone who heard it could feel his persistence.

Li Mingyun returned the salute with a smile.

"So, thank you very much." She said, her voice soft.

The fragrance of peach blossoms on all sides came to the nose, the breeze dissipated, and the picture was quiet for a while.

"And ......"

Qi Xun didn't finish his words and pursed his lips and was silent, suppressing the atmosphere a little dull.

It seems that there are words that are difficult to speak......

Li Mingyun's eyes flashed with doubt: "Qi Gongzi still has something to say?" ”

Could it be that some clues have been found?

Qi Xun looked at her, his eyes clear and transparent.

His expression was always flat, but his mouth moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, which made the people next to him wonder what secret he was going to tell next.

Qi Ran also kept silent, expecting him to say something.

"Last time I said it wouldn't happen again." He said, "I didn't expect to cause trouble to the third lady again." ”

He bowed, "I'm sorry." ”

It's like doing something very bad and waking up, and that's the only way to do such a great gift.

Li Mingyun laughed "poof".

"You are not to blame for this." She smiled and said, "Of course, I was also in trouble, and none of us knew why this happened." ”

She spread out her hands and gossiped casually, "You see, the government is busy with my birthday, and they don't even know what I've been through. ”

Festive lanterns have been hung on the beams of each house, and the lanterns are colorful, as if someone in this house wants to get married.

From time to time, there are small maids carrying things, maids carrying trays, coming and going, walking in a hurry, occasionally someone looks at this place curiously, and quickly bows their heads and leaves.

Qi Xun retracted his gaze and looked at the woman in front of him again.

I saw that her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, her apricot eyes were bright, and her smile was like ten thousand stars, dazzling.

Another crisp voice reached his ears.

“…… So, we don't have to worry about these things, because we can't predict them, and if we can't predict them, we can't guarantee them. ”

At the end of the words, the voice stopped, and Li Mingyun calmly met Qi Xun's gaze.

"Wangqi Gongzi doesn't have to apologize for these things. Now, what we have to do is to find out who is behind it. ”

Qi Xun said lightly and lowered his eyes.

……

……

Gwangju Prefecture.

"Today I went to the pawnshop in person, and found that the pawnshop shopkeeper behaved differently......"

"I asked him about Mrs. Peng Ao's pawning of jewelry, and he immediately insisted that it was absolutely true......

"Don't even think about it......"

Li Zhihuai looked at Qi Xu, who was speaking calmly on the other side, and was very unhappy.

Out of sight is pure, he simply turned his head away from looking at him.

Even if that incident wasn't done by Qi Xu and his daughter, he didn't want Yun'er to have anything to do with the Qi family.

Still always looking for trouble with Yun'er?

How did Qi Xu teach his daughter!

Thinking of this, Li Zhihuai was even more angry, and ran out of his mouth with a cold cry uncontrollably.

The voice was abrupt, especially at such a serious time.

Pei Yan and several other officials looked at the voice in surprise.

Qi Xu also stopped talking, his face a little embarrassed.

Also embarrassed is Li Zhihuai.

Seeing so many pairs of suspicious eyes looking at him, he couldn't help but explain dryly: "What Lord Qi said is that the pawnshop shopkeeper should really check it out!" Last time, maybe the people under me were negligent. ”

Pei Yan nodded, everyone retracted their gaze, and Qi Xu continued the topic just now.

"There is also the matter of Lu Wu saying that there are treasures in the ancestral house, I have sent someone to search for the house, and I have not found anything, but Lu Wu said that the location of the furnishings in some places is different, but he has been away from home for a long time, and he can't remember clearly, so I asked him to look for it in the house for the past two days......"

"If Peng Ao really occupies the ancestral house, it is very likely that it is for the things inside......

After speaking, Qi Xu wiped the sweat from his forehead, and his tense body relaxed.

I don't know why, I was a little confused by being looked at, I wouldn't have been like this before, was it...... Is it a lack of heart?

He looked at Li Zhihuai, and Li Zhihuai then snorted lightly and turned his head.

"Master Li, you can tell me about the disappearance of this woman in Zi County." Pei Yan said, he vaguely felt the turmoil between them, but at this time, it was not the time to pay attention to these, so he didn't take this matter to heart.

Li Zhihuai nodded and said heavily: "It has been ascertained that the disappearance of these women is more or less related to Gwangju City......

"Some of them disappeared in Gwangju City, and some of them were people who had been to Gwangju Fortress before......"

“…… It's all young women......"

“…… He has sent people to inspect all parts of the city......"

Pei Yan's brows gradually tightened.

It seems that this incident has nothing to do with Gwangju, and it is very likely that it was done by people in the city.

At present, I don't know whether these women are dead or alive, if they are alive, at least there are traces to follow, if they are dead, it will be a little difficult to investigate.

A few years ago, there was a case in Yuxian County, the lord of a large family killed more than a dozen people and buried them all in his own home.

After all, he didn't do anything, and it was impossible for him to suddenly go to his garden to find someone......

With his thoughts retracted, Pei Yan stroked the armrest of the chair.

"In the next few days, I have to find out the traces of the day these women disappeared, and put them all together, maybe I can get some clues."

"This matter must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise the safety of those women will be even more difficult to guarantee."

Li Zhihuai and others responded yes.
