Thinking of the past, Pei Ji'an sighed lightly.

Back then, he was still in his prime, and now he has passed the age of standing.

The people in the clan urged the marriage so tightly that over the years, he could not return to Pei's mansion if he didn't go back.

Time makes people get old.

"Huh?" Duan Shen covered his mouth and smiled, "Pei Gongzi suddenly sighed like this, a bit of a saint sighing at the deceased on the river. ”

Huh? Pei Ji'an covered his mouth, did he speak just now?

The appearance of the owner of Xunyan Tower, Huaiyu was also the first time he saw it, and he couldn't help but smile with Duan Shenshen.

The most prosperous room in the middle of the room is the main room, which is fragrant, different from the room of alchemy, this room is full of veils, the windows are bright and clean, and the vanity mirror is full of all kinds of rouge gouache.

Obviously, it was a place where a woman lived.

"Then the proprietress probably lives here."

Looking around, all the items in the room were neatly arranged, and the owner didn't touch anything before leaving, as if he was going out normally.

However, the upturned corner of the delicate shelf bed seemed to reveal something.

Huaiyu walked into the shelf bed, lifted the quilt on it, and removed the round pillow.

I saw that the bed under the pillow formed a square shape visible to the naked eye, as if something had been pressing on it before.

"Was there anything here?"

"Square." Huaiyu said to herself, "There are too many square things. ”

I took the pillow that I had just put aside, and turned it over, only to see that the shape on the pillow was a small circle.

The bottom is round, and there are many things of this shape.

Unable to guess what had been placed here for a while, Huaiyu called Achu over and asked him to draw the two seals.

Just as he was about to take a look at other places, suddenly there was a chaotic sound of footsteps outside, and Pei Ji'an said: "The Shangshu of the Criminal Department is here in person." ”

Huaiyu hurriedly patted the two marks on the bed, gently pulled the pillow on the bed, and removed the original obvious marks.

Shen Zhijie was followed by a few officers and soldiers, and the rest of the officers and soldiers soaked into all the rooms and courtyards in front of and behind the Mianzhai incense shop like flowing water, surrounding the Mianzhai incense shop.

The sound of ping-pong came from everywhere.

Duan Shen said darkly, the search of officers and soldiers is different, although the search of Xun Yanlou's subordinates is face-to-face and meticulous, but everyone is careless, and no one destroys the original things.

As soon as the officers and soldiers of the imperial court came, this neat women's room became a mess in an instant.

Duan Shenshen stood behind Huaiyu and laughed.

"Ah, isn't this Miss Gu? I didn't expect to meet again so soon. Shen Zhijie had a smile on his face at this moment, and he couldn't see the aggressive appearance in the morning.

Xu knew that Huaiyu didn't want to deal with Shen Zhijie, Pei Ji'an laughed and said to Shen Zhijie: "Lord Shen, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come to harm." ”

Shen Zhijie still has some affection for Pei Ji'an, after all, when he was still a waiter in the Criminal Department, many of the major cases in the Criminal Department were solved by Pei Ji'an.

Therefore, the smile on his face was much more sincere at this time: "Pei Sangongzi, long time no see, long time no see." ”

It's really been a long time since I saw him, and since he sat in the position of the secretary of the Criminal Department, he has never asked Xunyanlou to assist in investigating the case.

"I'll leave it to you, Lord Shangshu, I'm not talented, so I won't bother Lord Shangshu here." Pei Ji'an said.

"However, Lord Shangshu must catch the murderer as soon as possible, and it is not a good thing that such a peerless master has been produced in the important land of Kyoto."

"Pei Sangongzi is slow." Shen Zhijie stopped Pei Ji'an and put on a flattering smile, "Pei Sangongzi came before me, I don't know if I can find any valuable information?" ”

"Well, this one."

Pei Ji'an deliberately spared a circle, and seeing that Huaiyu and Duan Shenshen were looking at him funny, he finally decided not to tease Shen Zhijie.

He said with a straight face: "Shen Shangshu can know but the fragrance of death? ”

"But the incense of death?"

Shen Zhijie was confused.

Pei Ji'an explained to him the origin and function of reincarnation incense.

When he heard that the incense of death was also known as the incense of rebirth, he raised his eyebrows, his lips opened slightly, and he closed them tightly.

His reaction did not escape Huaiyu's eyes, and Huaiyu asked, "Lord Shangshu knows but dies?" ”

"No, no, no." Shen Zhijie hadn't recovered from Pei Ji'an's story of rebirth incense, and reflexively shook his head in denial.

Huaiyu smiled: "Shen Shangshu really doesn't know?" ”

Shen Zhijie really couldn't help the smiling girl in front of him, Wei also made it, and En also tried, but the other party didn't enter the oil and salt, neither afraid of his own deterrence, nor admitting his kindness.

What's even more difficult is that there is a Zhao Yan behind her, a Xunyan Tower.

Even if he had a few guts, he didn't dare to really do anything to her.

I am afraid that I will not be able to finish the things that the saint has entrusted to me.

"The official really doesn't know what but the incense of death, but I heard the house slave say that Prime Minister Wang Cheng has been obsessed with seeking the art of immortality recently, and the things he eats are called rebirth."

Prime Minister's Mansion?

"Yes, Prime Minister Wang Cheng is getting older now, and it is inevitable that he will sigh for the world, so it is understandable that people can make rebirth incense here privately."

Shen Shangshu's words are not unreasonable.

However, as Prime Minister Wang Cheng, who is above 10,000 people under one person, he is obsessed with the art of immortality, and he is not afraid of the shame of the world when he says it?

"Thank you Pei Sangongzi for telling me about the rebirth incense, otherwise I would like the official to investigate, even if this shop is turned upside down, the official doesn't know that this evil thing is secretly refining the rebirth incense here."

Shen Zhijie played an official tone.

Pei Ji'an is also indispensable, when it comes to the kung fu of seeing people and talking about people, and talking about ghosts, he has always been not losing to anyone.

"Lord Shangshu is too modest, who doesn't know that Lord Shangshu is a popular person in front of the emperor, and the emperor has high hopes for Lord Shangshu."

Pei Ji'an said, stretched out his right hand and compared it to three.

"Three days, as soon as today passes, there will be no more days, Lord Shangshu are sure not to intervene in Xunyanlou to help?"

Shen Zhijie said: "Don't bother with Pei Sangongzi, this case has become clear, it must be that Prime Minister Wang's old thief is unwilling to be old and wants to refine reincarnation incense to seek immortality, so the official will send someone to the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”

This convicts Prime Minister Wang?

Huaiyu only felt that it was child's play.

Not to mention whether someone is refining reincarnation incense, even if there is, did the horse that day go crazy because of the smell of this fragrance? If so, how did this incense be used on the horses of the carriages in which they were riding?

didn't even figure out these questions, Shen Zhijie actually said unashamedly that the facts of the case had been clarified?

"Lord Shangshu, I'm afraid it's too early to convict Prime Minister Wang Cheng at this time, right?"
