Chapter 161: Trying to Catch Away
Rao has had a rich life for so many years, but Aunt Meng has almost never had contact with people in the official mansion such as Xie Jinlan.
Therefore, she changed her fierce appearance in the past, and carefully said one thing and two things......
It wasn't until she got out of the back door of the county government and looked up at the blue sky that Aunt Meng's heart finally fell to the ground slowly.
Thinking back to what Xie Jinlan and the others explained to her, she suddenly frowned again:
I don't know what the two adults have in mind! She didn't do anything, could she really catch someone who was a threat to An Ge?
Shaking her head, Aunt Meng's eyebrows slowly relaxed:
Forget it, how can the thoughts of adults be guessed by a small citizen like her? Either way, she just needs to pay more attention to An Ge.
The two who were slandered by Aunt Meng had already left the hall at this moment and were playing leisurely in the pavilion in the garden.
Lu Renjia holds the black son, and Xie Jinlan holds the white son.
It's just that the two of them don't seem to play Go.
At the end of the game, looking at the five white pieces on the chessboard that were connected into a line, Lu Renjia laughed a few times and said:
"Lu is willing to bow down! This so-called backgammon is not as brain-intensive as Go. But it's also quite interesting. Master Xie is really talented. ”
Xie Jinlan didn't dare to admit it: "Lord Lu has won the prize, this backgammon was not created by me." ”
Seeing that Xie Jinlan didn't want to reveal the identity of the other party, Lu Renjia didn't ask much.
glanced at Mo Yan and his personal servant standing outside the pavilion, then turned to look at Xie Jinlan and said:
"Yesterday, Lord Xie didn't say anything? Now that you and I are here, as well as your little servant, Master Xie doesn't have to worry about it. ”
Xie Jinlan did not hesitate much, and told him what he said to Ruan Yezhen yesterday.
When Lu Renjia heard this, he lowered his eyes and pondered.
Xie Jinlan didn't bother, just quietly sipping the tea in the cup.
It seemed that a long time had passed, and it seemed that only a moment had passed, Lu Renjia looked at Xie Jinlan fixedly:
"Although the official really wants to believe that Jiang Zhutou is innocent, he also knows that Lord Xie is not a person without a purpose. If Jiang Zhutou really violates the law, this official will definitely deal with it impartially! ”
Lu Renjia's decision was expected by Xie Jinlan, he just smiled faintly and said:
"What are your next plans? If there is a problem with Jiang Zhutou, there are some things that I am afraid that the county government will not be able to use if it is fast. ”
Lu Renjia didn't think it was a big deal, and shouted to the little guy waiting outside the pavilion: "Xiuzhu!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Ruan Yezhen suddenly laughed out loud.
Without him, just because this little guy has a round body and a pleasing appearance, it doesn't match his name at all.
At the same time, she also recognized this little guy as the little guy who followed Lu Renjia when she first met him.
I don't know if it's a coincidence or what, but I haven't met him again in the past few times I came to the county office.
The next moment, Lu Renjia's words solved the doubts that Ruan Yezhen had just surfaced in his heart.
I saw him look at Xie Jinlan and say:
"Presumably Lord Xie, this is the first time I've seen Xiuzhu, right? Xiuzhu is my little servant, and he came with me from the capital. A few days ago, he had a chill, so he didn't serve in front of me. ”
While speaking, Xiuzhu had already entered the pavilion and arched his hand: "What do you command?" ”
Lu Renjia said: "You go and find out what the relationship between Jiang Zhutou and the Bai family in Tongfengpu is." Remember, don't keep your word out! In particular, don't let Jiang Zhutou see the abnormality! ”
Xiuzhu should claim that it was, and then left the pavilion quickly.
It wasn't until Xiuzhu's figure disappeared around the corner that Lu Renjia said:
"Xiuzhu has followed me for six or seven years, and I can trust his ability. Master Xie, just wait for good news with me. ”
Xie Jinlan smiled undeniably and said, "There is still something unclear about this official, and I hope that Lord Lu will give him advice." ”
Lu Renjia raised his hand and said, "Lord Xie, please speak!" ”
Xie Jinlan said: "Lord Lu thinks that the red nothing in Feng Ange's bedroom belongs to Feng Ange or Bai Siyuan?" ”
Lu Renjia didn't answer and asked: "Then Master Xie thinks that the silver needle bag in her wardrobe belongs to whom?" ”
When the words fell, the two looked at each other and smiled, everything was silent.
Ruan Yezhen on the side was confused.
Feng Ange doesn't know acupuncture, so isn't it obvious that the silver needle bag belongs to Bai Siyuan?
As for Hongwu, it would be hidden in such a secret place in the mezzanine of the jewelry box, it is usually done by women, right?
It's just that......
Looking left and right at the two who continued to play backgammon, Ruan Yezhen always felt that things would not be as simple as she thought.
After returning to the bedroom of the Kazama Inn, Ruan Yezhen couldn't wait to ask Xie Jinlan for confirmation.
Touching his eyes with unknown meanings, Ruan Yezhen said uncertainly: "Could it be that I guessed wrong?" ”
Xie Jinlan shook his head slightly and said, "Not really, the silver needle bag is indeed Bai Siyuan's." And that red nothing also belongs to him. ”
Without waiting for Ruan Yezhen to ask, he continued:
"It's just that the silver needle bag was specially prepared by him for people to discover."
Ruan Yezhen frowned and thought for a moment, then looked at Xie Jinlan with bright eyes:
"No wonder I always think there's something weird about that silver pin bag. Now that I think about it, it must be too new! It's like they've never been used before. ”
After a pause, she didn't understand again: "It's just, why did Bai Siyuan do this?" Wouldn't that reveal his identity? ”
Xie Jinlan shook his head lightly and said, "Although this move will arouse our suspicions, it will not prove his identity. He could have said that he was a man of sight. ”
Ruan Yezhen's mind turned, and she immediately understood Bai Siyuan's intentions, but she was still puzzled:
"Even if he wants to use this in exchange for you to find out the cause of the Bai couple's death, it's too risky. Isn't he afraid to put himself in it? ”
Xie Jinlan said meaningfully: "Perhaps, he has long been prepared for this." ”
Perhaps as early as the moment he planned to kill Feng Ange, he was already ready to put himself in it.
Ruan Yezhen still doesn't understand very well: "If his purpose is just to return the truth to his parents, there is no need to kill people at all." ”
Xie Jinlan glanced at her deeply, and just said: "Father's debt and daughter's debt." ”
Ruan Yezhen suddenly realized: Yes, the hatred of killing his father and killing his mother is not shared, how can a truth be erased?
Then he said: "What you said to Lu County Ling before that you want to capture the old people is referring to Aunt Meng?" ”
Xie Jinlan nodded with satisfaction: "The brain is not too stupid." ”
Ruan Yezhen glared at him fiercely, but she didn't care about him: "So Aunt Meng lied?" Did she know about Zhang Yuancheng's poisoning back then? ”
Xie Jinlan said: "Not bad! Even if she didn't participate in the poisoning back then, she was still an insider. ”
Ruan Yezhen suddenly felt indignant: "I know but I just watch, what is the difference between this and an accomplice!" ”
