"Why is that?" Joss was amazed.

"Because you are handsome, if you go out to Ma Shi Meimen, don't talk about escaping when the murderer is kept, even if you can't get rid of it. Ha ha! ”

Ye Mengmeng said happily, but Qiao Siyan's face became more and more ugly, it turned from white to red, from red to blue, from blue to purple.

Ye Chengxuan was so anxious next to him that he glanced at his sister. Ye Mengmeng just didn't see it.

The servants next to them couldn't help but look at each other, thinking that this Miss Ye really dared to say anything. The adults of his family are more beautiful than women, who doesn't know? But who dares to say it in front of adults, who says that adults are in a hurry, and it is not impossible to twist your neck if you are unhappy.

Qiao Siyan sneered: "The eldest lady really has a sense of humor! Since the eldest lady is unwilling to be a bait, it doesn't matter if Lord Ben is fine, this case can be put aside, so let the murderer hide in the Hou Mansion and be secretly proud. Brother Ye, farewell! After saying that, he hugged his fists, turned around and left.

Ye Chengxuan was anxious, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him: "Master Qiao, my little sister is not sensible, please don't meet her in general......" Seeing that Qiao Siyan still had a straight face, he had to sigh and say sullenly. "Master Qiao, I really have to let my little sister ...... Go back to being bait? ”

"Of course, she has to be. Everything starts because of her, who will go if she doesn't go? ”

"This ......" Ye Chengxuan glanced at his sister, a little worried. The murderer is so ferocious, will the little sister be dangerous? ”

"Brother Ye, aren't you talking nonsense?" Joss sneered, "Murderer, do you say it's dangerous?" But you can relax, the murderer's purpose is not the eldest lady, and she won't want her head for the time being, otherwise, her head would have been gone a long time ago. ”

Ye Chengxuan's face changed: "What do you mean: the murderer has always been in the mansion by the side of the little sister?" ”

"Yes!"

Ye Mengmeng's heart moved. This person, how could he be so sure that the murderer had always been by her side? Could it be that he had already seen who the murderer was?

Ye Chengxuan lost his voice and said: "Ouch, then, what should I do?" ”

"There is a way," Qiao Siyan glanced at Ye Mengmeng obliquely, and his words were sneering. "It depends on whether Sister Ling has the courage to be a bait."

"This ......" Ye Chengxuan turned his head to look at the girl, hesitating. He wants to catch the murderer quickly, but he doesn't want his sister to go into danger, it's a real dilemma.

Ye Mengmeng stepped forward slowly and smiled slightly: "Lord Qiao, Miss Ben's courage is not big or small, it is just good enough, you don't have to worry about this." Now Miss Ben is worried that some people are talking about it here, and the cowhide is blowing into the sky, and then it will be embarrassing if the murderer is not caught. ”

"What do you say? Qiao can't catch the murderer? After all, Qiao Siyan is still young, and he really can't stand the excitement, "Little girl, since Lord Ben took office, there has been no murderer I can't catch." Let's go, lead the way! After saying that, he turned around and left.

Ye Mengmeng saw him with a straight face, secretly funny, coughed, turned around and followed slowly.

Biyue sighed, patted her chest, and also lifted the palace lamp to Miss Miss.

In just a moment's work, the people were almost clean, and only Ye Chengxuan and Steward Cao were left in the pavilion looking at each other.

Ye Chengxuan was stunned for a while, suddenly came back to his senses, and hurriedly ordered Steward Cao to transport the body away, and then clean up the place, and ordered the family in the house to be transferred to the courtyard of the eldest lady.

Steward Cao let out an "oh", and was about to turn around, but suddenly turned around and asked, "Eldest son, there are only five guards in the house, do you want to transfer them over?" ”

"Why are there only five?" Ye Chengxuan was not surprised, "Wasn't there more than 20 people before?" ”

"Oh, that was two months ago, when the eldest prince hadn't come back yet, the third lady said that she wanted to save money and don't keep people who didn't matter, so she let go of more than a dozen people at once."

"What nonsense!" Ye Chengxuan's brows furrowed. "Okay, five is five, all of them are transferred, some is better than nothing."

"Yes, eldest son."

"Go ahead!"

Steward Cao bowed and left. Ye Chengxuan stared at the dark and dreary sky, with a lot of thoughts.

Let's say that as soon as Ye Mengmeng and his party returned to the courtyard, Qiao Siyan gave an order, and the servants immediately blocked the entire courtyard.

Hearing the movement, Yun Die ran out of the wing, and when she saw so many people in the courtyard, she was very surprised, especially when she saw the handsome and dashing man, she was even more surprised. In a blink of an eye, she saw Miss, and Yun Die hurriedly ran over to hold Ye Mengmeng's hand.

"Miss, where have you been? Slaves and maids are looking for you everywhere, and they are very worried about you......"

"It's okay, I just went to the backyard pavilion."

"Pavilion?" Yun Die was inexplicable, "What is Miss doing in the pavilion?" It's so remote there. ”

"It's hard to say a word, I'll tell you when I'm free."

The young lady was reluctant to say, so Yun Die had to stop with questions.

Joss sat proudly on the Taishi chair specially prepared for him by the courtyard in the courtyard, took out a very delicate small porcelain bottle from his arms, and raised his head from time to time to drink a sip of the fine wine in the bottle.

And all the slaves and maidservants stood in the courtyard and listened to the questioning. said that it was all, but in fact there were not a few slaves and maids. Mama Li was heartbroken after the loss of her young son, and she had completely collapsed, so she was not here. Other than that, there are only two grandmothers in the kitchen, and one grandmother who sweeps the yard.

The other is the slave maid in the eldest lady's house. The eldest lady's slaves and maids are even more pitiful, except for Yundie Yuncui, the two girls rewarded by Mrs. Biyue and Biyun. Now Yuncui and Biyun are not here, and the rest are Biyue and Yundie.

"Tsk," Joss shook his head, unable to believe his eyes. "The dignified Miss Jinyang Houfu Yan, there are only a few subordinates? I'm afraid that no one will believe it. I miss the Muguo Mansion, not to mention Miss Chang, she is a young lady, and there are several times more slaves and maids in the yard than you. ”

Ye Mengmeng was angry when she saw him shaking her head, glared at him and said, "Why are you talking so much nonsense?" Isn't it better to have fewer people? Doesn't it take you a lot easier to solve the case? Otherwise, dozens of subordinates are afraid that even their tongues will be numb to you. ”

Qiao Siyan couldn't help laughing, tilted his neck and took a sip of wine, and said slowly: "Miss's words are reasonable." ”

Yundie Biyue stood in the courtyard with several grandmothers waiting for questioning. Biyue is okay, she has a little bottom in her heart, but Yun Die and several other grandmothers are a little confused, they don't know what these heavily armed officers and soldiers want to do, although they also know that Mama Li's son Feng'er died, but how Feng'er died, they don't know anything about the specific situation.

Ye Mengmeng hurriedly said: "Don't panic, Master Qiao will ask you a few small questions, and you will answer truthfully." Master Qiao's eyes are like a torch, and he will neither wronged a good person nor let a bad person go. Right, Mistress Joe? ”
