But this does not mean that this person is soft-hearted, and in order to frame such an insignificant situation, he killed a little novice, which shows that this person is very ruthless.

"How did the little novice die?" Tong Yan asked.

"It's a chronic poison, it seems that the murderer pinched the right time, and the abbot master looked at it and said that he had taken it at least two or three days in advance." After Ji Yue finished speaking, she couldn't help but feel excited, and muttered, "County Lord, this murderer is too terrifying." ”

Tong Yan couldn't help but be shocked, this didn't seem to be the handiwork that a boudoir woman could have.

It seemed impossible for Jiang Yao to accomplish such a thing.

This becomes a dead knot again.

Tong Yan shook her head, there was too little information she could know, and it was none of her business if there were any particularly powerful people.

But she was always a little worried in her heart, and she always felt that there was a dangerous sword behind this matter.

"You always go out and inquire and see if there are any results." Tong Yan whispered a little distractedly.

Ji Yue obediently responded.

Tong Yan really doesn't want to stay in this temple anymore, but looking at this situation, she will have to stay for at least two days, and she can only leave when Tonghui and Tongyue are slow down and better.

On the round table of dinner, there was one less person, Mrs. Wang, Wang Lan and Tong Yan were all absentmindedly eating one bite at a time, each thinking about their own things.

After finishing the meal, they went to see Tonghui together, Tonghui's state was obviously much better, and her face was also colorful, what happened outside, Mrs. Wang specially told her maids, don't tell her first, wait until she gets better.

I'm afraid she will miss something again.

But Tongyue didn't do anything, she directly started the burn, which scared Mrs. Wang and trembled again, how can this be good?

She hurriedly called the maid to ask the abbot master to come and see.

The abbot's name is Lonely, he looks older than Loneng Neng, and his eyebrows have turned white.

He looked at Tongyue's condition and said that he had a fever because he was frightened, not a cold, and he was afraid that he would have nightmares when he slept at night recently.

He had not yet known the prophet and brought some soothing incense, which he had made specially for him, which was very useful.

not only brought it to Tong Yue, but even Tong Yan and Mrs. Wang shared some of it.

Lonely opened a new recipe, went to boil the decoction again, and let the maid feed Tongyue to drink.

"If the county lord of Zhaoyang is okay on weekdays, you can enlighten your sister more, this matter is mainly a heart disease, as long as you are relieved, you will naturally be fine." Silence.

Tong Yan naturally responded.

The maid woke up Tongyue and fed her some medicine, but she was always groggy, and after barely drinking it, she fell asleep again.

"I still have to eat something, and after half an hour, I will call up and use some porridge." Silent asked.

After sending Master Lonely out, everyone dispersed.

Tong Yan asked Xiangyun to go out to inquire about Cheng Shizi's whereabouts.

It was already dark, Jiyue was a weak woman, and Tong Yan was still not very worried about her, so she called Xiangyun to go.

As soon as the incense was burned, Xiangyun came back, "County Lord, Cheng Shizi is still worshipping the Duchess of the Kingdom." ”

Tong Yan nodded.

It stands to reason that she shouldn't have bothered Cheng Huai, but she really wanted to go and see him at the moment.

She hesitated, but went in person.

Fortunately, I didn't meet anyone along the way.

The two doors were wide open, the candles in the hall were bright, and only Cheng Huai's tall and lonely back knelt on the futon, motionless.

Tong Yan stood quietly outside the main hall, looking at him like this.

She didn't want to go in and disturb him again.

Just as she was thinking this, Cheng Huai stood up and turned to look at her.

Tong Yan was a little stunned, and then smiled embarrassedly, still disturbing him.

A faint smile appeared on Cheng Huai's face, and he walked over lightly and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”

"I," Tong Yan's tongue knotted a little, "I'll see how you're doing." ”

"Me?" Cheng Huai couldn't help laughing, he looked at Tong Yan with bright eyes, bent down to look at her at eye level, and said pleasantly, "How can I be okay?" ”

Tong Yan involuntarily took half a step back, her cheeks flushed, and she stammered, "Just talk, what are you doing so close, this princess is back in the palace, I don't have to ask, so I came to ask you." ”

Cheng Huai straightened up, and said clearly, "Then you came to ask the wrong person, I haven't been back, and I don't know what happened." ”

"And you haven't had dinner yet?" Tong Yan said in astonishment.

"Hmm." Cheng Huai emitted a simple syllable from his nasal cavity, looking a little lazy.

"So, aren't you hungry?" Tong Yan frowned.

"It's okay, don't stand here and talk." He walked to the next room.

Seeing that he directly pushed open the closed door, Tong Yan hurriedly followed, but she didn't expect that there were tables and chairs inside, and it was very clean, it was a small hall.

Seeing Tong Yan looking around curiously, Cheng Huai explained, "This is the place where the monks who take care of the main hall rest. ”

The two sat down in their chairs.

Tong Yan asked directly, "Do you know that a little novice died?" ”

"Yes." Cheng Huai nodded without waves.

Tong Yan was a little silent, but it is not difficult to guess that such things are commonplace for people like Cheng Huai who grew up in a big family since childhood.

"May I ask, then, who did it?" Tong Yan asked cautiously.

Cheng Huai laughed, raised his eyebrows and said, "This question really stumped me." ”

Tong Yan pursed her lips and said disdainfully, "I know, you just don't want to tell me, I'm indeed a little nosy." ”

"I really don't know." Cheng Huai couldn't laugh or cry.

Tong Yan glanced at him and said lightly, "You didn't know about the people in the forest that night, but now even I know." ”

"Oh?" Cheng Huai frowned, glanced at her, and was a little unconvinced.

Tong Yan puffed up her anger and beckoned to him and asked him to come over with her ears.

He leaned over obediently.

Tong Yan said in a low voice, "I know that woman is Second Lady Jiang, and not only that, but I also know who that man is." ”

Cheng Huai's pupils shrank, and he glanced at Tong Yan in surprise.

Tong Yan smiled slyly and blinked.

"And who do you say that man is?" Cheng Huai stared at her and asked.

"Nature is far away in front of you, and you are a very familiar person." Tong Yan said with a smile.

She is actually not sure, it is just a speculation after narrowing the scope, but in this way, she can guess whether it is Xu Lingjie by looking at Cheng Huai's expression.

It's a pity that Cheng Huai didn't leak a drop of water, and asked pretending to be puzzled, "Is it close at hand?" It can't be me. ”

Tong Yan was too lazy to go around with him, and said bluntly, "It's Lord Xu, Xu Lingjie, you should be familiar with it." ”

Cheng Huai lowered his eyes and couldn't see his expression clearly, and said lightly, "You guessed wrong." ”

But the more he was like this, the more Tong Yan felt that she was right, she said disapprerovitously, "It doesn't matter if you don't admit it, anyway, you're just a subordinate who looks out of the wind, don't worry, I won't go out and say it." ”

Cheng Huai couldn't help but laugh out loud when he said this, he wiped the tears from his laughter, looked at the dazed Tong Yan, and said, "Why do you think so?" How could I do such a thing? That's who I am, in your eyes? ”

asked three questions in a row, and Tong Yan was stunned, and she said, "You are not from Wangfeng, so what are you doing there?" ”
