Taishifu is still some distance from the outskirts of the city, so the two of them got into a carriage. It took about half an hour to reach the outskirts of the city.

This outskirts of the city, to the west, is a clearing, and further afield, there is an endless plain, where the slopes are low and there are no tall woods, so it is a good choice to set off fireworks.

Outside the city, there is a moat around it.

It is mostly an entertainment place for ordinary people, and there are few dignitaries.

If you look closely, you will find that most of them are children, or teenagers. Their cheers were the loudest and the most excited.

In addition, there are young people like Bai Wenyun, as well as a few elderly people who are very old. How boring life is usually, every time this festival, everyone will come out to be lively.

Bai Wenyun took his little sister, followed by Wuzhen, as well as Ying'er and Yan'er, got out of the carriage, and as soon as he got off the car, he was attracted by the fireworks that exploded in the starry sky.

The fireworks are so beautiful, although this beauty is very short-lived, but being able to see such a beauty, Bai Yirong is already very satisfied.

"Brother, it's so beautiful!"

Bai Yirong's eyes were shining, and she pulled her eldest brother's sleeve and squeezed into the crowd.

Wu Yu and the two maids squeezed into the crowd with difficulty, and when they looked back, they could only see the black pressed human head, and when they looked up, there was another round of fireworks.

"Woohoo!"

The fireworks burst into the air, and several "bang" sounds exploded together, but they quickly fell silent.

It's so beautiful, everyone couldn't help but sigh, open their mouths wide, and cheer.

Lou Zhan stood on the periphery, he was tall and had excellent eyesight, so he didn't need to squeeze to the front at all, the people in front were all children.

He looked at the fireworks in mid-air, as if he saw Bai Yirong's smile.

If the little wife could see such a beautiful scenery, she would definitely smile, she smiled so innocently......

It's still very cold tonight, and it's even more cold here on the outskirts of the city. Bai Yirong wasn't very cold, she was very well prepared before she came.

However, the two maids who followed behind were shivering from the cold, but the moment the fireworks exploded, they also forgot the cold. The two were next to each other, warming each other.

I guess that's a lot of fun.

Isn't life like this, there is no absolute happiness, and there is no absolute pain.

The excitement on Bai Yirong's face suddenly calmed down, and she remembered Lou Zhan. And Bai Wenyun beside her also stared blankly at the fireworks, not knowing where his thoughts were drifting.

Before you know it, the fireworks are over, and most of the people here are gone, but there are still people who stay, and they set up canvas tents and bonfires here, apparently to spend the night here.

Bai Wenyun and Bai Yirong naturally won't stay here, after all, it's too cold.

The two were silent all the way, and returned to the Taishi Mansion, Bai Wenyun said that he was speechless, and then went back to his courtyard.

Bai Yirong had nothing to do and rested.

After the fireworks ended, Lou Zhan also went back to the General's Mansion, and when he returned to the mansion, he saw the housekeeper coming up with a blank face and said, "General, that person, he is dead!" ”

"Who?" Lou Zhan subconsciously blurted out, and immediately reacted to who the housekeeper was referring to, but he couldn't believe it, so he went straight to the wing room in the general's mansion that was specially designed to accommodate the guests temporarily.

The housekeeper caught up and explained: "General, tonight, the little one personally brought a pot of hot water to this guest, who knew that his room was dark, and the little one thought he was asleep, but he didn't expect it...... I didn't expect ...... There was a strange noise in the room, like ....... Something fell! The little one was worried that something would happen, so he opened the door and went in to see, but he didn't expect it, he really didn't expect it......"

The housekeeper followed the explanation all the way, and finally came to the wing room where the throat sealer in the front yard was. This wing is located on the east side of the courtyard, opposite where the butler lives. The housekeeper was supposed to live in the south, but because there were few people in the house, there were no other masters, and the old housekeeper was also the highest steward in the house, so Lou Zhan let him live in the west wing, and the south was the residence of the rest of the people.

At the door of the wing, there are two guards guarding it.

"I've seen the General!"

"I've seen the General!"

The two hugged their fists, and they also knew the importance of this person, so as soon as they heard that something was wrong, they rushed over to guard it. Originally, the two of them were guarding outside.

"Has anyone else been here besides the butler?" Lou Zhan asked, his face serious.

"Back to the general, no one else has come."

"General! What's going on? As he was talking, he saw Cui'er and Lu'er also coming.

The housekeeper looked at them in embarrassment: "Two masters, go back quickly, this is not the place for you to stay." ”

Cui'er said: "Yo, old housekeeper, what are you talking about, you can't stay if you can treat our two sisters?" ”

"You ......" The housekeeper looked at Lou Zhan, but Lou Zhan's attention was all on the wing room in front of him.

Seeing that the door was locked, Lou Zhan instructed the housekeeper, "Open it." ”

The butler stepped forward to unlock the door and opened the two doors, and suddenly, a smell of blood ran out, and the butler stood aside with his nose covered.

Cui'er and Lu'er on the side also covered their mouths and noses, and Cui'er said: "Oh, this smell, it's about to smoke me to death!" ”

"Give me the lamp." Lou Zhan Road.

The housekeeper gave the lantern in his hand to Lou Zhan.

Before entering, Lou Zhan left a sentence: "Don't come in." ”

Lou Zhan walked in, and first saw the throat sealer lying on the bed, at this glance, he seemed to be asleep, but after Lou Zhan probed his snort, he found that he had died of anger.

Lou Zhan shone a lantern on his face, and found that his face was grayish-white, and then looked at the back of his bare hand, which was also gray-white. On the whole, the person who sealed his throat should have been poisoned.

Lou Zhan tried to probe the whole body of the corpse, but found no trace of the map, and turned over the bed again, but also found nothing. It seems that he didn't carry the map to Drunken Moon Villa, or perhaps, someone took it first.

After looking at the layout of the house again and making sure that nothing was found, Lou Zhan retreated.

The housekeeper said, "General, what have you found?" ”

Lou Zhan's face was as usual, he shook his head slowly, and then said to the two guards: "Good job, look good here." ”

Cui'er looked curious and asked, "Master, why did you die?" It's really bad luck, when are you going to send the body away? ”

Lou Zhan only left two words: "No hurry." ”

The housekeeper followed Lou Zhan into the house, and Lou Zhan said, "He was poisoned." ”

"What? How can it be poisoned? Could it be the people of the house......

Lou Zhan's face was scary, and he looked at the housekeeper and said word by word: "Very likely." ”

The butler was so frightened by his master's face that he knelt on the ground: "General, a slave is never harmless!" ”

Lou Zhan helped him up: "I naturally believe you, otherwise I wouldn't have told you this." ”

The butler nodded: "The minion understands." ”

"Who do you think will be the murderer?" Lou Zhan asked.

The housekeeper said hesitantly: "General, the slave thinks ...... Maybe it's Cui'er and Lu'er, they have just entered the mansion...... That's what happened......"

"Then tell me, why did they kill an unrelated person?"

"This, this...... Maybe they knew that the Throat Sealer had the route to Drunken Moon Villa? ”

After thinking for a moment, Lou Zhan said, "That's it, you go and call them." ”

"The little ones are going."

After that, the housekeeper went to the east and west wings to call someone.
