Chapter 10: Cinnabar Moles (7)

Shen Feiming glanced at the book in Gu Peiqing's hand and said, "How did Master Gu look at Wu Siye's anthology. ”

"Miss Feng brought it to the hunting ground, and Su Xian brought it to me, for fear that I would be bored."

Wu Siye's anthology expresses his thoughts of serving the country and the people, and he is willing to go to the soup for the people, and he will not hesitate to do so. It's great. Shen Feiming found a chair and placed it next to Gu Peiqing's bed, sat down and looked down at Gu Peiqing's face.

"Master Gu has such ambitions?"

"I'm just a vulgar person, so I naturally want to live this life safely."

"It's good to be ordinary. But now that you've embroiled yourself in the county lord's affairs, it seems that you don't want to be safe. ”

"You've been warning me to stay away from these people ever since I knew Miss Scarlet, does Miss Scarlet know them well?"

"I don't know much about them."

"I promised Brother Yue Ran that I would help him find out the truth, Miss Red Silk is very smart, what do you think about the county lord's affairs?"

"I already have the answer in my heart, and I can reveal the truth tonight. It's a pity that Master Gu is lying on the bed and can't see my heroic posture of revealing the truth. ”

"You're such a strange person, and you don't let me get involved, and you want to tread this troubled water yourself."

"You're wrong, Master Gu." She smiled, "You're not as good as you say." Then I'll show it for me, and I'll tell you the truth myself when you're better. ”

"Okay, okay, I'm a waste person lying in bed now."

"Then I'll go first, I'm going to have dinner." Shen Feiming got up, and Gu Peiqing suddenly grabbed her wrist involuntarily, "You be careful in everything." ”

"Men and women can't tell me."

Gu Peiqing hurriedly put her hand down, angry in her heart that this girl was not in shape at all, and she looked heartless all day long, but he suddenly thought of him lying on her lap, and she was afraid of losing tears, and her heart suddenly softened.

Shen Feiming came out of the tent and was in a good mood, on the one hand, Gu Peiqing had no big event, and on the other hand, she was happy for no reason, so she simply hummed a small tune.

The fifth prince took a bowl of medicine and met Shen Feiming in front of the tent, "Feiming, I heard that Gu Peiqing has woken up, I will send him medicine, and when I return to the palace, I will be grounded, I am afraid that I will not be able to apologize to him for that month, now I will apologize first, and I will send the gift when I can come out." ”

"Fifth prince, you are the prince, I will do this kind of thing by sending medicine." Shen Feiming went to grab the medicine bowl.

The fifth prince's face was extremely firm, "It's my fault, I'll make up for it, Feiming, you get out of the way." ”

Shen Feiming withdrew her hand when she heard him say this, she knew the temperament of the fifth prince and made way for him. This fifth prince is simple-minded and very dependent on the four princes, like a child, and is incompatible with this palace.

The stage was set up, and when it got dark, the actors of the Liangyou class began to sing on stage. It was a full moon, and the moon hung in the sky, and its silver light spread over a pond. The pond was some distance from the stage, and the sound of the bamboo came from a distance, intermittently. Even the maid guards secretly hid to watch today's performance, and the pond looked deserted compared to the stage.

Shen Feiming sat on a stone not far from this pond, hidden in the darkness. From time to time, she looked at the moon, and from time to time at the edge of the pond, as if waiting for something. It didn't take long for a woman carrying a palace lamp to appear by the pond, and Shen Feiming immediately cheered up and stared at her every movement.

The woman put aside the lantern, whispered something, and then stood on the stones that surrounded the pond, and walked slowly on them, clasped her hands together, very reverently, and every ten steps she glanced at the moon, and bowed down.

Shen Feiming looked at this strange scene, and he was not surprised, as if he was waiting for something to happen, when suddenly the woman's feet slashed, fell into the water, and kept struggling. Shen Feiming had already prepared, picked up the rope on the ground and rushed over, threw it into the pond and shouted, "Lord Qi, you are about to catch it!" "But Lord Qi doesn't know water, so he is in a hurry to struggle, and he doesn't know where the rope is.

At this time, two more people came out of the bushes, Su Xian jumped into the pond and hugged the county lord of Qi with one hand, and pulled the rope to the edge of the pond with the other, and Feng Xinyue took the county lord of Qi on the side.

"County Lord!" Cui Yan only ran over at this time and supported the county lord of Qi. Shen Feiming went to the small pavilion next to him and lit a fire and motioned for them to come over.

"Xinyue, you go to the fourth prince and Wu Siye to come over, and ask them not to bring anyone else." Feng Xinyue picked up the palace lamp brought by the Lord of Qi, and ran to the stage. Su Xian was still wringing his wet clothes by the fire.

"I have to go back to the tent and change my clothes, or I'll get cold." Lord Qi had just come out of the pond on a spring night, shivering with cold.

"If you go back, then I'll tell the Holy One about these days." Shen Feiming's tone was cold. Lord Qi froze for a moment, the firelight reflected her face, and her gloomy expression could be seen.

Su Xian was also very strange and said, "Feiming, how did you know that Lord Qi would come here." ”

"I'll talk about it when everyone comes."

The flames crackled, and the four of them were speechless at this time, Cui Yan wrung water into the long skirt of the county lord of Qi, and added firewood to make the fire burn more vigorously.

The fourth prince and Wu Yueran came over, and they were startled when they saw the wet Qi County Lord, and the four princes hurriedly untied their cloaks and put them on her, Wu Yueran pursed his lips and watched all this.

"It's all here, then I'll tell you about the recent events, in fact, I was entrusted by the Four Princes to investigate the truth, after all, in Yunxiang Louqi, the county lord was poisoned, and many people think that it was done by the people on the side of the Four Princes. The fourth prince really wanted to find out who poisoned the county lord, and if it was really instructed by someone close to him, he would also vent his anger for the county lord Qi. ”

"Who's that?" The Four Princes asked.

"Don't worry, I'll tell you what's going on. Let's start with the county lord being burned, the county lord entered the mountain forest that day, and the mountain forest is close to the place where the fireworks are set off, and she can't see the whole picture of the fireworks, so it's not a good place to watch, and she must not be there to watch. Then the fireworks residue fell on her clothes and burned, but under normal circumstances, although the residue was hot, it did not cause burning, so why did the county lord set fire to her clothes? Because her clothes were plastered with white phosphorus. It was difficult for the murderer to obtain white phosphorus, so he only wiped some on her right sleeve, in fact, if Gu Peiqing and I hadn't arrived in time, I am afraid that Lord Qi would have been unable to extinguish the fire by himself and would have been burned alive. ”

Lord Qi's face turned pale when he heard this, and he didn't know whether he was shocked or cold.

"Skip the matter of Yunxianglou's meal first, because it wasn't the murderer's doing. Then they arrived at the hunting ground, and in the morning the lord of Qi went to the forest with a jar, and the crescent moon knew what was in the jar? ”

Feng Xinyue nodded and replied, "It's earthworms, a lot of earthworms." ”

"Anything else?"

"Soaking in chicken blood, it tastes super bad and fishy."

"After the county lord arrives in the forest, can the fourth prince tell us what she did?"

The fourth prince thought about it for a moment, and said in a very confused tone: "When I found her, she had just spilled the contents of the jar and drew a circle, and then stood in the circle and read something. I interrupted her in the past, and she didn't explain to me, and came back with me in silence. ”

"It's spring, and the snake is out of its hole, and the smell of earthworms and chicken blood can easily attract poisonous snakes. If it weren't for the arrival of the Four Princes in time, no one could guarantee what would have happened. And tonight, she walked on the rocks, which were so few people that the stones were covered with moss, and it was very easy to slide into the water. ”

"Then why would she do such a thing?" Wu Yueran was equally puzzled.
