The incense in the incense burner emits a faint cold fragrance.

"What's wrong with this incense?"

"On that day in Deyue Tower, I once said that I smelled a fragrance, and this is the smell." Qiao Ran put the incense back on the table and said, "This Ruyu should have been present that day." ”

Zhen Shiyuan frowned.

"She kidnapped Pei Xizhi and confirmed that she killed Feng Yuan, Huang Zijiu, Yu Mufeng, and Zhao Wen in a row," Zhen Shiyuan said, "There is no doubt about this matter." ”

"Yes." Qiao Ran nodded, and unfolded the painting in his hand again, "Lord Zhen, what do you think of this painting by Mr. Yu Mufeng?" ”

Zhen Shiyuan was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head: "This official is not good at this way, I am afraid that I will have to invite someone to come over to distinguish between the true and the false." ”

"Look here." Qiao Ran pointed to the signed word.

"How could it be ......" Zhen Shiyuan's face changed drastically, he took the painting over, and after looking at it carefully for a while, he asked Qiao Ran, "How is this character different from what we saw before?" ”

The words on the "Four Points of Begonia" and the borrowed Yu Mufeng's genuine handwriting are completely different from the words on this painting.

"Qingfeng Lou's mother said that this is a painting that Ruyu has been hanging in the room," Qiao Ran said, "I saw that this character was completely different from Yu Mufeng's handwriting, so I brought it over." ”

Qiao Ran paused as she spoke, turned around and went out, and after a while, she brought back two paintings from outside the door.

"This is the authentic handiwork of the only two gentlemen left in the hairpin banquet that Tang Zhongyuan borrowed from the library, this is Lin Zhishui's, this is Yi Zhaonan's, don't you think it's a coincidence?"

The words signed "Yu Mufeng" in the jade room are more like the handwriting of Mr. Lin Zhishui among the two.

Zhen Shiyuan suddenly said: "Jiang Xiao committed suicide, let's not mention it for the time being, and Zhao Wen will not say anything if he is implicated." Just look at Feng Yuan, Huang Zijiu, and Yu Mufeng, compared to the deaths of Feng Yuan and Huang Zijiu, Yu Mufeng not only lost his life but also took the responsibility of killing, Ruyu obviously hates Yu Mufeng more, is it related to this painting? ”

"This painting was in a coma before, I have asked the gentleman of the library to identify it, it is not Yu Mufeng's authentic handiwork, but the depictor's skills are good, compared to Yu Mufeng's works, it is obviously a school, and it is also a rare masterpiece. The highly skilled imitation painting is not Yu Mufeng's handwriting, and the little girl thinks that this may be Lin Zhishui wanting Ruyu to mistakenly think that this painting was made by Yu Mufeng. ”

"Planting blame." Zhen Shiyuan coldly spit out four words, "You don't mention this Lin Zhishui, I forgot, he is from Luoyang, whether it is a famous prostitute Ruyu or a famous calligraphy and painting Lin Zhishui, the names of these two people, it is impossible for the other party not to know, most of them have already known each other." ”

"So Ruyu wanted to kill the person who painted, but Lin Zhishui deliberately induced it, and the disaster led to the east, I think Pei Gongzi should have something to gain from going to Luoyang this time, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to Qingfeng Tower as soon as he came back." Qiao Ran paused as she spoke, "Perhaps finding Lin Zhishui is more important than finding Ruyu." ”

Zhen Shiyuan had a splitting headache when he heard it: "Lin Zhishui is also gone?" ”

"And Yi Zhaonan." Qiao Ran spread her hands, "These two people, along with Ruyu and Pei Xizhi, are gone." ”

Zhen Shiyuan scolded his mother.

Qiao Ran also fell silent. There is always someone who is one step ahead of them in everything, and no one can bear it!

Tang Zhongyuan walked in from outside the door at this time, and after he saluted Zhen Shiyuan, he looked at Qiao Ran: "Miss Qiao, there is a mother-in-law outside who wants to see you." ”

Mother-in-law?

"The slave is the person next to Miss Ruyu." As soon as the woman saw them, she went straight to the point.

Zhen Shiyuan immediately shouted: "Come on, take this person down to this official." ”

The mother-in-law sneered: "Don't worry, my lord, I didn't plan to escape after doing such things with Miss Ruyu, otherwise, I would have already left the city at this time." ”

Qiao Ran and Zhen Shiyuan did not refute it silently, and it was indeed very easy to escape with their magical makeup methods.

"The old woman is here because the truth of one thing is still unknown to us, so I ask Miss Qiao to help me do a favor." The mother-in-law said, "That's what Pei Gongzi meant." ”

"What did Pei Xizhi say?" Qiao Ran asked.

The mother-in-law said: "He said that you should take the twelve paintings left by Jiang Shanchang before his death with the one that Jiang Shanchang gave you, and go with me to meet them." ”

Zhen Shiyuan frowned: "She can't go with you." "If that Ruyu kills the red eyes and takes another one, he will also be the head of Jinling Mansion.

The mother-in-law said: "If Lord Zhen is willing, he can also go with him, but there can't be more people, too many, and I'm afraid of extraneous branches." As soon as this matter is settled, Miss Ruyu and I will surrender ourselves. ”

Qiao Ran was silent for a moment, and said to Zhen Shiyuan: "My lord, why don't you let me take Ah Sheng with you!" ”

That Ah Sheng, Zhen Shiyuan remembered, and nodded after a while. If you can only bring one, then Ruyu really starts a madness, and he can only take a life for nothing, if Ah Sheng goes, maybe he can still control this Ruyu.

It was Ah Sheng who rushed back to Xuanzhen Temple to get paintings, and compared to them, Ah Sheng, who could naturally fly the eaves and walk the wall, walked faster.

It took less than half an hour to go back and forth, and the painting was taken.

The mother-in-law saw Ah Sheng's ability with her own eyes, and she didn't react much, obviously not minding her to bring a "skilled" escort to accompany her.

Zhen Shiyuan watched the mother-in-law disappear in front of them with Qiao Ran and Ah Sheng, and wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve.

This thing...... If nothing else, it should be over today!

Don't think about the hairpin banquet, no, don't do any banquet! Tea banquet and hairpin banquet, it's really a good feast, hum! Zhen Shiyuan flicked his sleeves and strode into the mansion.

If he could, he really wanted to issue a ban: no banquets should be held in the future. It's just that...... Think about it or forget it, how can this kind of thing be forbidden?

……

The carriage finally stopped, and Qiao Ran lifted the curtain and looked out.

There is only one word on the wooden plaque: Pei.

It turned out to be the Pei family's private house! Qiao Ran looked at the woman in surprise: "Could it be that this matter is Pei Xizhi's opinion?" ”

The mother-in-law nodded: "It's what Pei Gongzi meant." It was only at this time that the woman's face softened a little.

It turned out that he was not kidnapped, but he sang a big play!

Qiao Ran's heart was relieved and she stepped in.

Although she had heard Ruyu's name early in the morning, today was the first time Qiao Ran had seen her,、。 Of course, maybe it's the last time. Ruyu has so many people's blood on her hands, no matter which law Da Chu is, she can't live.

Although she is the most prestigious Oiran in Qinhuai's ten miles of wind and moon, she does not have the slightest air of wind and dust, but has a kind of beauty that has escaped from the world. At the first glance of her, Qiao Ran thought of the Miss Li who was always dressed in plain white, compared to the "fairy energy" dressed up like that, Ruyu was the real fairy jade bone.

What a beautiful woman. Even Qiao Ran couldn't help but say "It's a pity".

Ruyu's expression was faint, and there was a bit of tiredness between her eyebrows and eyes, and she took the painting brought by Ah Sheng and put it in front of Pei Xizhi: "Pei Gongzi, you will tell me who was the last person who killed my sister back then." ”

Compared with Pei Xizhi, who was not restrained at all, the two people in front of him, Yi Zhaonan and Lin Zhishui, both sat motionless on the stone bench with a panicked face.

"What's wrong with them?" Qiao Ran confirmed that they were not bound.

"Poison." Ah Sheng's voice rang in her ears, "Huang Zijiu died of this incense poison. At the moment, they are fine, but if Ruyu does not detoxify them in the end, they will also die like Huang Zijiu. ”

A familiar scent of sandalwood poured into the nose, and the fragrance ...... Qiao Ran glanced at Ah Sheng.
