Yingge smiled, her pale face showed a little tiredness, she slowly closed her eyes, and said: "I have nothing to say, Master Qiao, you and Zhang Tianshi, one knows everything, and the other doesn't even let me die, what else is there to say?" ”

She knew that she would not be able to please them if she fell into their hands, but she did not expect that what she suffered was not physical torture, but psychological. Rao is that she thinks that her wisdom is far superior to others, and she can't stand those perceptive eyes.

It's a matter of making up your mind not to cooperate. Qiao Ran turned her head to Zhen Shiyuan and said, "Although there are many powerful people in the capital, there shouldn't be many places where such a large area of orchids are planted. ”

Zhen Shiyuan snorted, as early as when she said "red mud", he had already opened his mouth to call people.

As for this Yingge, since he refuses to speak, it's just that, it's important to find someone now.

Zhen Shiyuan frowned and ordered a few words to the henchmen around him.

After a while, the henchmen set up a wooden stake to tie up Yingge, and blocked her mouth to prevent her from biting her tongue and committing suicide.

They still have a set of methods on how to prevent prisoners from committing suicide.

Since there was nothing more to say, everyone didn't stay long, and they were out of prison.

"If you really refuse to confess, then the next person is ready to hand it over to the Criminal Department!" Zhen Shiyuan sighed, a little embarrassed, "Maybe the criminal department can pry her mouth open." "Of course, if you can't pry it open, it is estimated that this Yingge will be a dead man.

Qiao Ran naturally had no objections, Zhen Shiyuan looked back at the girl who was silent with her eyes down, was silent, and said, "You...... Just stay in the yamen with Zhang Tianshi and wait for news, and the official will take people out to have a look. ”

The girl nodded in response.

Zhen Shiyuan left with the rest of the officials, and the yamen of Dali Temple became more and more empty.

A cup of hot tea was pushed in front of him, Qiao Ran came back to her senses and looked at Zhang Xie who was standing in front of her.

"But what's the problem?" He looked at her and said, "You've been stunned for a long time." ”

Qiao Ran shook her head and said, "I don't know. ”

"Do you think there's something wrong with the case?" He asked.

Qiao Ran still shook his head and said, "That's not it, so far, there is no problem with the case." After a pause, the girl explained, "Because of the investigation of Xie Chengze's disappearance, I turned to the matter of Xie Liuye and his wife's disappearance in Jinling City," she said and rubbed her eyebrows, "I seem to have made an old mistake again, and I am a little curious." This matter should have nothing to do with Xie Chengze's disappearance this time, I wonder if to investigate it, it is equivalent to violating people's privacy! ”

Invasion of human privacy? The word was a little new, and Zhang Xie smiled: she always had some strange and novel words coming out of her mouth from time to time, and he was used to it.

"If you don't think you need it, don't check, it's important to find Cheng Ze himself now." Zhang Xie paused suddenly as he spoke, and said, "If you are really curious about this matter, it is not a big deal, go to find Master Xie and you will naturally know." ”

Qiao Ran said: "I'm afraid Master Xie doesn't want to see me." "After all, I went to Xie's house to pick something before.

Zhang Xie smiled: "Then I'll go with you." ”

Qiao Ran was stunned and smiled: "Then will he say that we use power to oppress people?" ”

Zhang Xie is good-tempered, once he talks about his identity, he is really a righteous Yin and Yang Si Tianshi, the same as the three products, and the only orphan of the Zhang family, although he is young, he really can't be lazy.

Zhang Xie said with a smile when he heard this: "How can you and I compare to the power of the Xie family?" ”

What is the ...... It's really bad. Qiao Ran's mood somehow felt a lot better, and he was about to say something, when he suddenly heard Zhang Xie say "Huh", and said, "Speaking of Master Xie, I seem to remember one thing." ”

Qiao Ran held the hot tea cup and asked him, "What's the matter?" ”

Zhang explained: "When I went to Luoyang a few years ago, it coincided with the blooming season of peony flowers, so we bought some peony flowers to come back and plant them...... Of course, the result was not planted well, but this is not important, the important thing is," Chengze did not buy it at that time, I persuaded him with Hexiu, but he said that he left a place for orchid seedlings in the carriage, and his uncle loved orchids. ”

Xie Chengze's eldest uncle is naturally Master Xie.

Qiao Ran's face froze: Of course, this may be a coincidence, after all, there should be a lot of people who love orchids in this world. But since there is a man who loves orchids right now, Master Xie naturally wants to check it out.

"Where is Master Xie's orchid?" Qiao Ran asked.

She has been to the Xie family in the past two days, although the Xie family's mansion covers an extremely wide area, but in the end there are almost all the clansmen of the Xie family, even if the Xie family has any hobbies, it is impossible to carve out a piece of land in the Xie family's mansion to meet his hobbies, after all, he is neither a favored Xie family master, nor a favored Xie family son, let alone Xie Taiwei himself.

Therefore, Master Xie's orchids must not be planted in the Xie family's main house, but in the garden under his own name.

Obviously, Zhang Xie also thought of this: "I remember that Master Xie has a villa on the outskirts of Vermilion Bird Fang, which is very close to here. ”

"Let's go!" The girl got up and strode out the door.

For many smart people, the most dangerous place is the safest place, looking at the mastermind behind this case, he is definitely a smart person among smart people, and he dares to directly enter the prison as Xie Chengze to save people, which shows that his courage is far beyond the comparison of people.

Xiaohua has been staying in the prison of Dali Temple, and he knows that she will not let Xiaohua leave until the Gu on Xiaohua's body is removed, so in this case, a great possibility is formed in his heart.

"I see that this person's practice is to leave a back hand everywhere, that is, to go out of the city is also separated from Yingge, so he will definitely leave other back hands when he stays in the city, in addition to Xie Chengze himself in his hand, the small flower with Gu on his body is also one of his hole cards, so, if I am him, I will definitely choose a position very close to here, so that I can touch my hole cards at any time." Qiao Ran said as she walked, "I think it's very likely that Xie Chengze will be locked up there." ”

After all, Xie Chengze is missing, and the officials who want to search in the city in a hurry will definitely not be able to search door to door on a large scale, so when they find someone, I am afraid that someone will have an accident early. Since it is an urgent search for people, some places, such as the Xie family, and other places in Xie Chengze's own house are naturally skipped, which can be proved from the fact that she went to the Xie family in the past two days and did not see any official errands.

With such an analysis, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that Xie Chengze was in the Xie family.

When the two of them hurriedly walked out of the yamen, they couldn't help but be stunned when they saw the jujube red horse spewing in front of the yamen.

Qiao Ran said, "This...... It seems to be a heavy wind! ”

When I came back before, I didn't see Pingzhuang and Tang Zhongyuan, thinking that the two of them went back to rest, after all, the matter of looking for Xie Chengze was spontaneous, not an order from above, and I was tired, so I naturally went back by myself.

At the moment, at first sight of this horse, Qiao Ran hesitated a little: "...... Heavy wind. ”

A whispered mutter, but the deaf and clear-eyed heavy wind ran to her with hooves and rubbed her and Zhang Xie affectionately.

"It's urgent, or ......" Qiao Ran hesitated, and the next moment, he was hugged on the horse.

Zhang Jie, who wrapped his arms around her waist, said, "Borrow it!" After a pause, he added, "When I was in Jinling, I remembered to teach you how to ride a horse...... and fell in love with the literary network

Qiao Ran said: "It's okay if you don't teach." She didn't ride a horse very often, and the only few times she rode was with him.

"After this case is over, we will go to the horse farm in the suburbs to learn how to ride horses." Zhang Xie tugged on the reins and patted Chongfeng, "Human life is at stake, Chongfeng, go!" ”

As if he understood, the wind hissed, and Saya ran wildly with her hooves.

Carrying the bed back to Dali Temple, the official road stopped people and searched the city were all done, and it happened that they were hungry, Pingzhuang and Tang Zhongyuan went to the restaurant on the side of the road to have a full meal, and drank two pots of wine by the way.

When I returned to Dali Temple, I couldn't stand it in my stomach, so I went directly to the toilet.

When he came out of the toilet, the refreshed Pingzhuang walked out of Dali Temple, and was about to bring his beloved Chongfeng back to the yamen, when he saw Chongfeng's buttocks, and the back of a man and a woman who went away.

Most of the wine woke up at once, and Pingzhuang jumped to his feet and hurriedly chased after him.

The heavy wind ran very fast, the wind hunted in his ears, and vaguely heard some sound behind him, Qiao Ran looked back and saw that Pingzhuang was waving his hand at them vigorously, thought about it, and replied: "You stay in Dali Temple and wait, we will come when we go!" ”

Will you come if you want to go? Ping Zhuang was about to vomit blood: What's the matter? Is this still addictive? In view of the fact that Master Qiao is a woman, although he is a little bolder, he can't ride a horse at all, which shows that it is Zhang Tianshi who is doing this.

"It's sanctimonious!" Pingzhuang said angrily, "The monks are still close to women. ”

Tang Zhongyuan, who was leaning on the railing of the yamen, corrected him: "Zhang Tianshi is not a monk, he can become a biological child, otherwise wouldn't the Zhang family be doomed?" ”

"If he wants to please Lord Qiao, he will use his own skills to rob me of Chongfeng, what is he doing?" Pingzhuang was inexplicably sad and indignant, "I fed the heavy wind with a handful of grass, I am usually reluctant to ride it with heavy objects, I have to coax him if I lose my temper, what is he, two people are embarrassed to ride my heavy wind!" ”

Tang Zhongyuan touched his nose, laughed, and reminded him mercilessly: "You said that you have a big temper, if it is not for its own willingness, which one can let it go obediently?" I think it's your horse that is voluntary, and the people are close to Master Qiao and Zhang Tianshi! ”

"How is that possible?" Pingzhuang said indignantly, "Yes, they are also bewitched. ”

Who can bewitch a horse? This flavor is also heavy enough.

Tang Zhongyuan continued to laugh for a while, and then said with a straight face: "I just walked around the yamen, and found that except for the jailers in the prison, the other officials were almost gone, and after asking the jailers, I knew that Lord Zhen had gone out with the officials. I think there may be news. ”

After saying this, Pingzhuang's face immediately changed, and he pointed in the direction where Chongfeng was gone: "Then they are also looking for news?" ”

"Perhaps!" Tang Zhongyuan breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward and patted Pingzhuang's shoulder, and comforted him, "This is how Master Qiao handled the case, and things may take a turn for the better soon." ”

"Then we're going to go along." Pingzhuang said, and immediately turned around and ran to the stable, although the horses in the stable were not as good as the heavy wind, but they would not be lost.

……

Heavy wind was full of wind, and in less than half an hour, he arrived at the annex on the outskirts of Master Xie's Vermilion Bird Fang.

got off the horse, walked to the gate of the annex, and clearly saw the lantern hanging from the corner of the eaves of the three-story small building in the annex, the lantern was bright, Qiao Ran raised his eyebrows: "There are people inside." ”

Zhang Jie's eyes also fell on the lantern at the corner of the eaves, paused, and said, "Then do you want to knock on the door?" ”

The girl pointed to the high wall and said, "According to my speculation, it's better not to startle the snake." ”

Zhang Xie was silent for a moment, nodded, stepped forward to wrap around the girl's waist, and was about to bring people in, but he heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, and then the two horses appeared in sight.

Tang Zhongyuan and Pingzhuang.

Qiao Ran looked at Chongfeng who was shaving hooves on the side, and said, "It has a really big face, and it actually chased after it." ”

Chongfeng exhaled twice between his noses, tilted his head in the direction of Pingzhuang, and continued to bow his head to chew on the weeds on the side of the road.

While talking, the two of them had approached, the two turned over and dismounted, and Pingzhuang immediately ran to the side of Chongfeng, Chongfeng shook his head, only gnawed grass, and ignored Pingzhuang at all.

It was Tang Zhongyuan who came over and shouted "Miss Qiao" and "Zhang Tianshi".

"Since it's here, that's just right." Qiao Ran changed Fang Cai's mind and said, "After a while, the two of us will knock on the door, and you will go over the wall and go around the backyard to see if there is anything suspicious, I suspect that Xie Chengze is being locked up here." ”

Pingzhuang, who was holding Chongfeng's head and complaining, was immediately startled when he heard this, and hurriedly ran over, excitedly: "Really? ”

Qiao Ran nodded and told them: "Don't startle the snake, be careful." With that, he waved at them, motioned for them to hide, and then stepped forward and struck the knocker.

After a while, I heard a woman's voice in the courtyard: "Who? ”

Woman...... Qiao Ran was silent and said, "Xie family, there is something urgent to come to the master!" ”

The woman said "Come on", and after a while, the latch behind the door was unlocked, the door was opened from the inside, and a middle-aged beautiful woman with a graceful figure appeared in front of everyone.

When they saw each other, they were all stunned.

The pair of men and women in front of them didn't look like servants of the Xie family at first glance, and the fools in the dark official robes on their bodies knew that the other party was not an ordinary person.

And Qiao Ran and Zhang Jiefa were stunned that the middle-aged beauty in front of them was not a servant who managed the other garden, looking at the clothes on their bodies, their hands with fine skin and tender flesh, and combined with the fact that the owner of the other garden was Master Xie, the identity of this beautiful woman was about to come out.

Pingzhuang and Tang Zhongyuan in the corner were startled, and couldn't help but glance at each other: This Miss Qiao (Master Qiao) opened her mouth, and then said that Master Xie raised the outer room, and the next moment he directly caught the outer room.

Unexpectedly, she not only caught the murderer accurately, but also caught the outer room.

"She might as well take on some private work," Pingzhuang muttered silently, and turned over the wall with Tang Zhongyuan, "Those ladies in the main room have always been generous in this kind of matter, and if they grab a few orders, they may buy all the houses in the capital." ”

The beautiful woman came back to her senses and was about to close the door, but Qiao Ran's sign was already held up in front of her, and she opened her mouth and said, "Don't be nervous, we are not sent by the eldest lady." ”

It's good that it's not the eldest lady, the beautiful woman breathed a sigh of relief, she hadn't seen the sign clearly, and now she looked at it again, and couldn't help but be startled, while secretly glancing at her from time to time, she said: "The master is inside, come with me!" ”

She knew that this sign was the old man who came to her in the afternoon with a wound on his face to eat and drink, and complained, which focused on the "Lord Qiao" who talked about bad things, holding a sign to show off his might.

Who knew that the next moment, this "Lord Qiao" actually found here, it was really evil.
