Chapter 36

When night fell, the dark night sky was gradually dotted with stars as bright as pearls.

It's very hot during the day, and at night, it gets cooler.

Ming Jue read a book in his house for a day, Sheng Mingyu felt sorry for his younger brother, and after dinner, he called Ming Jue out.

The sister and brother sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, she had a few words, and wanted to explain a few words to Mingjue alone.

Sheng Mingyu held Mingjue's pair of hands that were almost good, but when he lifted the pen, there was still a little pain.

"Jue'er, you are my sister's younger brother, my sister doesn't want you to be a big hero who stands up to the sky, my sister only hopes that you can gain fame in the future, become an official in the court, and benefit the people, just like your father."

Ming Jue looked at her sister sitting beside her, and secretly accentuated her tone.

"Sister, don't worry, Ming Jue will definitely gain fame, become an official in the court, and benefit the people."

"But when Ming Jue becomes a big official, the humiliation that my sister suffered in the Yongding Marquis Mansion today, Ming Jue will definitely ask for it back a thousand times for her sister and the Shi family. In the past, my sister was in front of me to protect me, but now I have to protect my sister. ”

"Silly boy! Sister doesn't need you to protect her! It's okay for you to protect yourself. ”

Sheng Mingyu said and patted Mingjue's round head.

In fact, she doesn't need Mingjue to protect her, she can protect herself well and Mingjue.

It's been like this all these years.

She has nothing left.

Sheng Mingyu talked to Mingjue in the courtyard again, and after Mingjue was a little sleepy, Sheng Mingyu asked Anxin to take Mingjue to Mingjue's house to rest.

Sheng Mingyu planned to go to the study and continue to study the two scriptures.

When I was about to step into the courtyard of the study, a small servant came back and forth from the porter, saying that there was a distinguished visitor.

I was relieved to get the news from the concierge and hurriedly came to Sheng Mingyu.

"Girl, the little maid in the concierge came to say that a yamen catcher is coming soon, and he has something important to discuss with the girl."

The fast capture of the yamen?

She doesn't have any dealings with the public, so what would be the one who came to her?

Sheng Mingyu thought about it for a long time, but he never thought of who it was.

Since I couldn't think of it, I simply went to the front yard to have a look.

Let's see what kind of catch is fast, and discuss something with her.

When he arrived at the small flower hall in the front yard, Sheng Mingyu found that in the flower hall, there was already a catcher dressed in red, and his face was a little familiar.

It's Zhan Hongling!

Why is Zhan Hongling here today?

Hearing the sound of footsteps outside, Zhan Hongling turned around and saw Sheng Mingyu appear behind him.

"Miss Sheng, you can be regarded as coming, but I have been waiting for you for half an hour."

"I don't know if Zhan Zhu came to me, what is the important matter to discuss with me? Please also show the catch quickly, but it doesn't hurt! ”

Sheng Mingyu was no longer polite with Zhan Hongling, and asked her bluntly, what was the matter with her coming over today.

Seeing Sheng Mingyu ask like this, Zhan Hongling didn't hide it from her, and said directly.

"Miss Sheng, you also know that the last time Mr. Zhang was assassinated on the street, you helped us find out the real murderer."

"From the last case, I saw that Miss Sheng knew a little bit of medical skills and a little bit of ability to investigate cases, so we opened the Yamen of the Mansion and wanted to invite Miss Sheng to accompany us to solve a big case."

Zhan Hongling came to visit her today, just to find her and ask her to help solve a big case?

Before Sheng Mingyu could ask, Zhan Hongling explained to Sheng Mingyu.

"Miss Sheng doesn't know, these days in the city, but there is a big case, in the east and west of the city, there are people killed, some victims were chopped off feet, some victims were chopped off hands, and some victims even lost their heads."

"As soon as this incident spread, the whole city of Tokyo was panicked, and the people were afraid that they were the next target of the murderer, and they hid at home these days, and they didn't even dare to go out."

"After the official family heard about this, Long Yan was furious and hurriedly transferred our Kaifeng Mansion to investigate the matter and find out the murderer."

When Zhan Hongling said this, Sheng Mingyu was not very scared before, but now he was suddenly afraid.

He has no hands, no feet, and no head, and such a murderer must be a vicious man.

She is just an orphan girl from a down-and-out family, where does she know what to investigate?

Sheng Mingyu opened his mouth to refuse.

"Zhan Yu is fast, you also know, my medical skills, I can't see people at all. Last time, if it wasn't for the fact that my brother was involved in Mr. Zhang's assassination case, I wouldn't have helped you find the murderer. ”

"I just heard Zhan Capture say this, Mingyu thinks that the murderer of this case must be a vicious and vicious person, Mingyu is just a helpless girl, she can't help Zhan Capture quickly, please go back quickly!"

Hearing what his own girl said, Anxin immediately walked out from behind Sheng Mingyu and was about to ask Zhan Hongling to go out.

Zhan Hongling was unmoved, but continued to sit on the bamboo chair, turned his head to look at Sheng Mingyu, and asked thoughtfully.

"Miss Sheng doesn't plan to ask, if the murderer of this big case is found, how much will the reward be?"

"I heard that Miss Sheng is trying to make money these days, and when there is a Taoist temple festival in the city on the fifteenth day of the first month, Miss Sheng will go to the Taoist temple to go out of the stall, and in the name of the Taoist temple, she will tell fortunes and measure words for others, and the fee is not low!"

Zhan Hongling said this, did she want to use this matter to blackmail her?

"Zhan Catch fast, I also eat with my ability, is it possible that Zhan Yu Kuai also has objections to this?"

Sheng Mingyu asked Zhan Hongling with a smile on his face.

Zhan Hongling smiled, and then replied.

"Of course not, I don't have any problem with that. It's just that the yamen has an idea about Miss Sheng's move. Miss Sheng is in the name of other people's Taoist temples, and she came out to deceive and ruin the reputation of other people's Taoist temples. If Miss Sheng's move reaches the ears of the viewers of Sanqingguan, Wuyue Temple, and Miaoyuan Xianguan, I am afraid that those old people with bull noses will lift Miss Sheng's stall. ”

Zhan Hongling made it clear that she wanted to use her stalls in Sanqingguan, Wuyueguan, and Miaoyuan Xianguan to blackmail her.

She couldn't help but say yes.

If she doesn't agree to come down, Zhan Hongling will tell those bull-nosed veterans about her stall, but I'm afraid that those bull-nosed veterans won't let her go easily.

That being the case, she asked first to see what Zhan Hongling wanted her to promise.

"Zhan Arrest quickly, what do you want me to help you in this big case? First of all, I would like to state that this case is really exceeded, and I am not capable of helping you solve it. ”

"We don't dare to work hard Miss Sheng, you are a woman, come to help us solve the case."

As Zhan Hongling spoke, he dug it out on his body, and finally took out a document stamped with the seal of Kaifeng Mansion.

"Miss Sheng, take a closer look, this is a document hired by Kaifeng Mansion. These days, there have been a lot of big cases in various places, a lot of people have died in Jiangzhou and Liuzhou, and the Yamen of Kaifeng Mansion has not been seconded to leave, and now there is such a big case in the city, and it is not possible to do it without it. ”

"The doctors in this city are not willing to do such work easily, so we thought of Miss Sheng."

Ask her to do the work of Kaifeng Mansion?

Sheng Mingyu's face was full of shock, was Zhan Hongling joking with her?

Sheng Mingyu wanted to excuse the matter.

"Hurry up, I'm a girl, I'm afraid it's a bit out of place to do such work, right? Besides, my medical skills are not superb, but in my opinion, I still forget it. ”

Sheng Mingyu borrowed her identity as a girl to refute Zhan Hongling.

Unexpectedly, Zhan Hongling said.

"Miss Sheng, I am also a girl's family, but I haven't been the red-clothed woman in Kaifeng Mansion yet, so Miss Sheng shouldn't shirk."

"Another day, I will transfer the file of this big case from Kaifeng Mansion and give it to Miss Sheng for good study."
