Chapter 113: The back light and the moon are in the shade

"Jiaojiao." Ji Yuan took off the cone hat on Huo Shui'er's head, because it was a national funeral, Huo Shui'er only wore a moon-white wide-sleeved skirt, and only a few silver hairpins on her head, which was pure and gentle.

"Third sister-in-law." 'Ghost Hand' is a very discerning person, he knows that this Huo girl and the third brother are mixing oil, since they ask people to do things, they can't leave the work behind.

A faint flush appeared on the girl's face, and Ji Yuan gently held her hand, "Let him call it, it's not wrong after all." ”

The 'ghost hand' bowed his head and smiled without saying a word.

On a cup of clear tea before the Ming Dynasty, the buds are calm at the bottom of the cup, the green is slightly yellow, and the tea soup is clear.

"Cheng Ze said, do you want to see my family's Doctor Jin?" Huo Shui'er glanced at Ji Yuan, took the teacup he handed over, and moistened his throat.

"The third sister-in-law is not surprised, Dr. Jin was originally a family teacher, and my master's surname is Jin, and my single name is Yi." Jin Yi was an abandoned baby back then, and Dr. Jin passed by Yishui and picked him up, so he was named Yi, but few people on the rivers and lakes knew his real name.

Huo Shui'er smiled, a little confused, "If it is the friendship between master and apprentice, how can it be so restrained, if you want to see it, just go to Huo Mansion, although we support Dr. Jin, we are not detaining him from seeing his apprentice." ”

"The third sister-in-law doesn't know anything, it's either that I don't see it, but the master is afraid that he won't see me." Jin Yi smiled bitterly, "Master, his old man refused to take care of the affairs of the rivers and lakes ten years ago, and he refused to see the people of the rivers and lakes, I am now in the rivers and lakes, and I am also a person from the rivers and lakes, and I have also sent letters in the past ten years, all of them have sunk into the sea, and it is very likely that the master will not see me." ”

"In this way, it is also Dr. Jin's choice, although I am a girl from Huo Mansion, I have no right to force him to see anyone." Huo Shui'er said helplessly.

"It's not that I want to embarrass the third sister-in-law, I just hope that the third sister-in-law will bring a letter to the master." Jin Yi pondered for a moment and glanced at Ji Yuan, who meant permission.

"I'm afraid this matter has something to do with the third sister-in-law." Jin Yi cautiously spoke.

"Something to do with me?"

"My grandmother died of chronic poisoning, and in the codex left by Dr. Jin, ten years ago, there was a noble lady in the capital who also died of chronic poisoning, and the poison was almost exactly the same."

Ji Yuan almost made it clear that Huo Shui'er's deceased mother Zhang lost her life ten years ago.

Huo Shui'er clenched the teacup, her eyes were a little helpless, her breath was short, Ji Yuan was afraid that she would hurt, so he broke her fingers and held it.

Her memories of her biological mother are already very fragmentary, only some sweet pastries, or the intermittent night song in her mind, the woman's voice is very soft and glutinous, and she can't hum a complete tune in Jiangnan now.

As for her mother's appearance, if it weren't for the portraits in her father's study, she wouldn't have remembered it.

But every year on Mother's Day, my father always disappeared completely, and in the thunderstorm at night, she shrank in the quilt and shivered, and no one could sing that little tune to lull her to sleep anymore.

A person who has almost no memory, the reason why it can become Huo Shui'er's obsession is not so much her obsession with the past, mottled under all the flowers.

"Okay, I'll find Dr. Jin." Huo Shui'er calmed down her emotions and agreed.

"If Master insists on refusing to see me, you will give this to him." Jin Yi took out a small needle bag made of deerskin, which was given to him by Dr. Jin when he left the school.

Seeing the golden needle is like seeing a person.

The three of them said a few more words, and Ji Yuan sent Huo Shui'er back. I met Su Yu on the way, and she was in a hurry, as if she was hiding from someone.

"Yikes." Su Yu came out of the alley on the side and bumped into Huo Shui'er's arms, Huo Shui'er snorted softly.

"Your Highness, Sister Huo, save me!" She said as she looked behind her, as if she was afraid that someone would chase her.

"Column battle." The latter nodded and walked in the direction Su Yu had come.

Su Yu gasped for breath and eased up a little before thanking, "Thank you, Your Highness and Sister Huo for your help." ”

Huo Shui'er felt that this picture was really weird, if she really wanted to say it, Su Yu was Ji Yuan's real fiancΓ©e.

It's just that the other party obviously didn't mind, but took two steps back and solemnly saluted, "I apologize to Sister Huo today, I had a misunderstanding with my sister before." ”

Huo Shui'er was inexplicable, "What misunderstanding?" ”

Ji Yuan squeezed Huo Shui'er's hand, and had a rough guess in his heart, presumably Su Yu had also discovered something.

Su Yu didn't seem to want to talk more, just blinked, "Sister will know in the future." My sister said goodbye. ”

Hurried steps, hurried walks.

"She's this?" Huo Shui'er was confused.

"She may have discovered the problem with the printing shop."

"What printing press, and what's the problem?"

"Do you remember what I told you that someone was going to kill her?"

"I remember." Huo Shui'er frowned, "Those letters?" ”

She almost knew the details of Su Yu's abduction, and with a little association, she knew that it was strange. Thinking about it carefully, she also received a letter in her previous life, a letter to kill Su Yu.

"Hmm." Ji Yuan nodded, "The paper used for these letterheads is very special, and I haven't found them in all the printing workshops in the capital." "There's a pungent smell on the letterhead, and you can still smell it even if you turn your hands around a few times.

It's not the smell of ink, it's a kind of stench, like the smell of night incense.

Following this line, Ji Yuan's people found a small workshop, just in the alley, which was originally an ordinary house, and the basement was built by that group of people, and the conditions were very simple, and the eating, drinking, and Lazar were all in one room, so there was such a bad smell.

When I found it, it was already empty, and the owner of the house was an old man who sold vegetables for a living, and he was tortured for seven or eight days, but he just said that he didn't know, and he was still locked up in the dungeon.

Song Yunting should have also found this house, but she didn't know why Su Yu went alone, presumably she met someone. At this time, Lie Zhan came over, and he shook his head, "Master, I didn't see anyone." ”

"Didn't any of the brothers stay there before?"

"The brother who was guarding there was stunned, and he has been sent back for treatment."

Generally, if you find a stronghold, if you don't catch someone, Ji Yuan has an unwritten rule under his hand to keep people squatting.

If it doesn't work for half a month, it will be a month, and if it doesn't work for a month, it will be half a year, and I can't guarantee that I am a little bold, thinking that the rumors have passed and I want to go back.

It seems that the person on top this time is also ruthless, and he can stun Ji Yuan's spies, which is really the first time in so many years.

"Don't worry, the fox's tail has been pretending to be for a long time, and it always has to be exposed."

Ji Yuan comforted Huo Shui'er, this matter was in no hurry.

"Who the hell is stirring up the storm in the middle of this?" The woman frowned.

"Whoever benefits the most is the mastermind behind it." Ji Yuan seemed to be pointing.

Huo Shui'er was blessed to the soul and looked at him, who smiled but did not speak.

Just speculation, no evidence.
