My head shook like a rattle, and I didn't dare to look at him with a weak heart, "It's delayed." ”

Chu Nian let out a long sigh, and his tone became much more easy-going, "What did Fang Che say?" ”

"Gong, Gongzi knows!" Also, how could Tang Li not say it?

Chu Nian looked at me like an idiot, "If I don't come, are you going to walk on this street until tomorrow morning?" ”

I just want to make mistakes, and I am speechless.

Chu Nian looked at me for a long time, and finally sighed helplessly, "Forget it, this is not the place to talk, go back with me and explain honestly." ”

"Oh." It's good now, there's no time to even talk nonsense.

Tang Li was absolutely loyal to Chu Nian, and today's incident must have been conveyed word for word.

Hey, when you go out in the future, you must flip through the yellow calendar to see what taboos are committed.

When he returned to the post station, Tang Li was also waiting at the door from afar, and when he saw me and Chu Nian, he was relieved, and asked with concern: "That second young master didn't embarrass you, right?" ”

I shook my head and said vaguely, "I guess it's not embarrassing!" ”

"What do you mean by shouldn't count?" I confused him.

I don't know how to explain it, so I have to say that it is conditional forgiveness, which can be regarded as fooling Tang Li.

To be honest, I feel upset when I think of his conditions, and I am in love with him for making it difficult for me to do something to compensate him, which is better than dealing with Chu Nian racking his brains.

Back in the study, Chu Nian used an excuse to leave Tang, walked to the table with a calm face, poured two cups of hot tea, handed me a one, and made a gesture for me to sit down at will, "I'm not going to say it yet, but the draft hasn't been made yet?" ”

When did this guy get to know me so well?

Hurriedly smiled, "No, how dare your subordinates perfunctory?" It's just that there are a lot of things that happened today, and I don't know where to mention it for a while. ”

"I'll talk about the case later, let's explain Fang Che's matter clearly." Chu Nian looked at me seriously, I didn't dare to look at him, standing in front of him and drooping my head.

Chu Nian snatched the folding fan from my hand and knocked on the door of my head, "You have such a sad face, didn't he recognize you as Qin Qiu!" ”

I looked up at him in shock, and admired him from the bottom of my heart: "He is worthy of being a son, wise and wise." ”

"Don't be a sycophant, this is the only thing that can make you upset, if it's just a simple trick that can make you so depressed?" Chu Nian laughed angrily at me, "I heard Tang Li say that you asked him to find a dog to scare him, and I guessed it." I can guess, let alone Fang Che, who was deeply impressed by this matter? ”

I explained with a bitter face, "I was just trying to scare him away so I could avoid it." How do you know that he is so despicable, he actually took away the person we were going to interrogate, and threatened me to go to him. The subordinates were afraid that he would use this matter to be unfavorable to the son, so he went to the appointment. But I didn't want to, not only did he see through his daughter's body, but also because the dog remembered it, he knew my true identity. It's useless for your subordinates, if you mess up your errand, you can punish me, son! ”

Chu Nian played with the folding fan I brought today, listened carefully to what I said, and closed it, "That's it?" ”

I looked up at him in confusion, "What's the point?" ”

How do I think he's not angry at all, and I'm not surprised?

"Oops!" He unexpectedly knocked on the door of his head with the handle of the fan, rubbed it grinningly, and looked at him inexplicably, "Gong, Gongzi, you still give your subordinates a happy word, no matter how you are punished, there is no complaint, I just ask you not to hang like this, your subordinates really have no bottom in their hearts." ”

"It's not your fault, why punish you?"

"But, you said that if someone finds out the identity of your subordinates, you won't spare me." I still vividly remember the way he said this, it was simply Hades possessed.

"Is there one? How come I don't remember? ”

I looked at him speechlessly, didn't he feel pain when he slapped his face like this? Obviously, I said okay!

He stood up and put a copy of the relevant news about Jiang Zhong and Jiang Qingping sorted out on the bookcase in front of me, and continued: "Don't worry, Fang Che won't betray you and me, I'm just surprised that he is actually afraid of dogs, and he feels fresh." ”

"Really?"

Chu Nian chuckled and looked at me seriously, "When have I ever played with this kind of thing?" Fang Che returned to Kyoto not long ago, and he didn't know where he got the news that Zhou Jian's disappearance had something to do with his father, so he came to Licheng. Like me, he quietly went into the city to investigate, and at the moment except for his father and me, only those who knew him knew. He went to Yunjiaofang to find out something, otherwise how could he take those four girls away so coincidentally? ”

The heart I was hanging on finally let go, wiped the cold sweat and breathed a sigh of relief, honestly stood up and walked in front of Chu Nian to salute him gratefully, "Childe Mingcha." ”

Chu Nian dragged me up with the handle of the fan, and it was rare to leak a curious look, "Can you explain something about that dog?" ”

"That was three years ago, and my subordinates don't remember it clearly, it seems that he played tricks on me, so I retaliated back." I'll tell you the truth.

Chu Nian's straight face had a rare sense of schadenfreude, and then his brows furrowed slightly, "You just said, what is his other condition?" ”

"It's nothing, he said that he misses the old, if his subordinates can't get along with you, you can follow him."

The smile in Chu Nian's eyes became a little cold, "Do you want to defect to him?" ”

I have gradually become accustomed to this subtle change in him, and the subconscious desire to survive made me shake my head categorically, and said with a serious and resolute attitude: "The subordinate order is given by the childe, and the son will never be loyal to anyone except the child." ”

Chu Nian only darkened slightly, but when he heard my loyalty, he didn't seem to be very happy, and I was confused.

But fortunately, it passed.

Actually, I didn't dare to tell the truth about another condition, and I don't know why the words changed when they came to their mouths. I thought it was just a joke from Fang Che and didn't take it to heart, but I didn't want to bring disaster to Fang Che because of this.

Of course, that was the next day, and it was only later that I realized why he was in trouble that day.

Later, when Tang Li returned, the three of us began to cut into the topic and discuss today's progress.

Chu Nian first showed us the results of his investigation, first Jiang Zhong's life, in general, he was a dog of Jiang Qingping, with his own little abacus, but as long as Jiang Qingping had orders, he would absolutely obey. Relying on Jiang Qingping to do evil, there are many people who have offended, but most of these offended people have been dealt with by Jiang Qingping, and most of them hate Jiang Qingping more than Jiang Zhong.

And Jiang Qingping has been in the army for the rest of the time, except for entertaining "Chu Nian", a Beijing official, because not long ago, General Fang received news that the army had been mixed with the fine work of Beiliang, and it was necessary to strengthen the investigation of the whole army, and there was no time to wipe Jiang Zhong's ass, so Jiang Zhong dared to act recklessly in Yunjiaofang.

In other words, the suspicion of Jiang Zhong's offended people and Jiang Qingping was ruled out.

"Childe, could it be that someone is playing tricks on you?" The person Tang Li was referring to was Jiang Qingping, and like me, I felt that this person surnamed Jiang was not a good bird.

Chu Nian shook his head

Tang Li said that some of the girls on his side were not familiar with Yi Qinghuan, and only two of them could say a few words simply.

I don't know much about Yi Qinghuan, I only know that she has a relationship with Ling Peier and the four of them on weekdays. But recently, because Jiang Zhong took a fancy to Yuan Xiu, the relationship between the several people has become very delicate.

One of them said uncertainly that she had secretly seen Ling Pei'er go to Yi Qinghuan for Azhu's matter, and was annoyed by Yi Qinghuan's neck to warn, and finally the two broke up unhappily.

I listened attentively while sorting out my clues, and found that the content behind me was a little surprised by what I knew, and I suddenly came back to my senses after being kicked in the foot.

I asked Tang Li in confusion, "Are you finished?" ”

"Why are you still distracted? Your turn. ”

I slowly handed the details that I sorted out to Chu Nian, and he looked at me and explained, "This time I went to Yunjiaofang, and my subordinates found that Yi Qinghuan's so-called good sister relationship was not as deep as she said, maybe because everyone mentioned two things, which put her in a situation of isolation. The first is the change of Yi Qinghuan, everyone says that Yi Qinghuan has been to Danzhou and comes back like a different person. Another thing is that Ling Peier and Yi Qinghuan had a dispute. ”

Chu Nian looked at the content I had sorted out carefully, "Well, let's talk about it in detail." ”

"First, what happened to Yi Qinghuan when she went to Danzhou, we don't know this, but her changes are obvious to everyone, she is harmless to humans and animals in front of people, but her changes after people make many people feel terrible. We still need to investigate this matter. The second thing that his subordinates were most concerned about was the quarrel between Yi Qinghuan and Ling Pei'er. And there is a fuse for this matter. ”

Tang Li thought of interjecting a sentence: "Azhu? ”

I nodded, then shook my head again, "Yes and no." ”

Tang Li was very confused, "What do you mean yes and no?" ”

I stood up and sorted out my thoughts, and then said carefully: "Ah Zhu is indeed the cause of the dispute between Ling Pei'er and Yi Qinghuan, but there is another source here, it is indeed a little girl named Yuan Xiu. ”

"Yuan Xiu? The little girl you brought back today? Tang was puzzled, "What does it have to do with her?" ”

"Listening to the people in the yard, Yi Qinghuan came back from Danzhou and changed as a person, a few days after coming back, the simple Yuan Xiu went out with Yi Qinghuan to play, and when he came back, he met Jiang Zhong who was visiting the garden. was bumped into by Azhu halfway, and Azhu was ruined for Yuan Xiu. People think that Ling Pei'er is holding grievances for Azhu, but in fact it is not, there is another reason for this, Ling Pei'er inadvertently knew that Jiang Zhong was originally targeting Yi Qinghuan, and Yi Qinghuan withdrew Yuan Xiu in order to protect his innocence. ”

Chu Nian listened carefully, took a sip of the teacup, and said, "So, do you suspect that Ling Pei'er and Ah Zhu teamed up to kill Jiang Zhong and deliberately blame Yi Qinghuan?" ”

"Yes!" My answer is certain.

"Two girls?" The more Tang Li listened, the more he felt that something was wrong, "It's not two footprints of a man and a woman, how did it become two girls?" ”
