Ling Tiancheng covered Zhuang Siyan with his clothes, and flashed under the eaves in a few steps.

Qing Ran's feet were not slow, and he hid under the eaves almost at the same time as them, but Fang Ji was different, and he hid back to the door of the room where he had hidden people before.

And those who let out the arrows, as if they hadn't seen them hiding, let go of their arrows, and most of them pierced the people in the courtyard.

This scene stunned Zhuang Siyan.

She turned her head and asked Ling Tiancheng, "What's the situation, didn't they see us hiding?" ”

"Of course I saw it, and I saw it before I shot the arrow."

Zhuang Siyan was stunned for a moment, and then asked again stupidly: "Huh?" Why? ”

There was no need for Ling Tiancheng to explain this, because the door of the backyard from the teahouse was also rushed open at this time.

A group of people dressed in official uniforms and holding sharp swords rushed in, tied up the puppeteers in a few clicks, and strangely pasted a piece of yellow paper on them.

And the person who put the arrows on the roof saw them coming in and automatically stopped what he was doing.

Well, Zhuang Siyan finally saw it now.

It's all my own people.

And needless to say, these people were all arranged by Ling Tiancheng.

She tilted her head and glanced at the people around her, a little unclear, why he didn't stay in the capital, why he came here, and how he arranged all this.

The officers and men who came in were very vigorous, and after subduing the people in the courtyard, they broke into the house.

The people inside were also arrested, and some strange things were searched, but they didn't catch the Ling Huaiping that Luo Yong said.

The things that were searched and the people who were arrested were all enclosed in the courtyard of the prefect's house.

Zhuang Siyan looked at it all the way, and finally pointed to a batch of strange knives and asked Qing Ran: "What are these for, such a small knife, but so sharp, it can't be a hidden weapon, right?" ”

He shook his head: "It doesn't look like it, it's different sizes, and it doesn't have a standard shape, but there are blood stains on it, I don't know what it's for?" ”

Zhuang Siyan looked sideways at the people in the circle: "What's going on with those, none of them have a normal brain?" Why don't they all speak? ”

Even though Qingran has been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, he doesn't know much about these strange people and things, and he really hasn't seen them.

In the end, Rayong guessed: "It is likely to kill someone." ”

"Murder? There are many ways to kill people, why make people look like this? ”

Rayong said: "I have just seen that the skin and flesh of those people are rotten, only the skin on their faces is a little better, and their intelligence is damaged, they must have been drugged." ”

Zhuang Siyan has heard of this kind of perverted practice in modern society.

There are some psychologically twisted people who take pleasure in torturing others, like perverted murderers, and when they catch a person, they don't want to kill them, but to torture them.

But it's rare to make people stupid like this.

And after listening to Rayong's words, she also went to see the flesh and skin of those people.

With just one look, she almost threw up.

The flesh and skin of those people, except for the exposed part, were intact, and the inside was a large scar that could not be described as strange, and it did not look like it was made of ordinary injuries at all, but as if it had been stripped of its skin alive.

"This method is too cruel, who did it?" Zhuang Siyan, who had recovered his strength, kept holding his fists, and the green tendons on the back of his hands jumped up.

Their operation this time can be described as very secretive, and the speed is also very fast, and it is impossible for the other party to know the news in advance.

However, they didn't catch a useful person in the teahouse, didn't even force a confession, and even Xu Ning couldn't find it.

This is a very irritating place.

Zhuang Siyan has always felt that she is witty, such a big mistake, there are really not many people who have passed through her hands, and today's incident is clearly a slap in her face.

No one could explain it to her, Luo Yong, Qing Ran, and Du Jixin couldn't do anything but feel guilty when they saw her angry.

However, the sky waits for no one, and whether they find out about it or not, the sun will set and the day will come to an end.

Du Jixin, as the prefect of Luohecheng, first put all the people in prison, and the evidence recovered was placed in the lobby of the prefect.

Rayong's work was over, and he came back early.

Qingfeng, who followed him out during the day, came back to serve Zhuang Siyan, and did not find anything abnormal about him, but really hated those people in the teahouse, and he has always been very cooperative with Qingfeng's work.

Qing Ran suffered some injuries in the teahouse, and after bandaging, he also went to rest.

All the people who could be asked here had been asked, and only one one was left—Ling Tiancheng.

After he dealt with the affairs of the teahouse, he didn't go with Zhuang Siyan, but only asked her to go back to Luohe City Governor's Mansion first, saying that he would come to see her in the evening, so he left first.

At this time, it was already night, and the people of Luohe Mansion were all dispersed, leaving only Qingfeng and Zhuang Siyan still in the lobby.

The food that Du Jixin asked someone to deliver, I don't know if it tasted bad, or Zhuang Siyan couldn't eat it after seeing the skin of those people, in short, he didn't have any taste, so he just sat and drank some tea.

After the two of them finished talking about Rayong, they didn't speak again, but they thought the same thing in their hearts.

That's where Xu Ning was got.

It had been a day later, and his situation was a little more dangerous, but they had torn down the teahouse and found no clues.

What now?

Is there a city-wide search?

Even if that's the case, will you be able to get people back? And it's really hard to do.

Not to mention that there are not so many in Luohe's mansion, just because of the time for the search, they can't afford to delay.

Xu Ning is Zhuang Siyan's friend, and when he came out this time, he originally thought that he would be more happy with him, but he didn't expect it to put him in danger.

She rubbed her temples with her hands, as if asking Qingfeng, and as if asking herself, she said, "Where do you think he will be?" ”

Qingfeng took her and said, "Sir, don't worry, Lord Xu should be fine." ”

Zhuang Siyan shook his head: "How is it possible, so many people have had an accident, even if he still has a life, it is estimated that he will not be tortured." I'm to blame for this, I shouldn't have brought him here, even if he brought Ah Si, he was a little stronger than him, at least he could protect himself. ”

She was right, Qingfeng was also a rough person, and he couldn't say much to comfort him, so he could only change the topic and say: "If those people who were arrested during the day were all drugged, then who were they?" ”

These words really caught Zhuang Siyan's attention.

There are a lot of people who have been caught from the teahouse, are they all puppets?

These puppets are obviously all in the backyard, and in the teahouse in the front yard, there are also small servants and shopkeepers, and even the foreman of the teahouse, why did these people stop talking when they arrived?

"Qingfeng, let's go to the prison and have a look." Zhuang Siyan put down the teacup, got up from the chair and walked out.

Qingfeng also hurriedly put down the things in his hand and followed her out.

However, as soon as the two arrived in the courtyard, they found that there was still a person standing there.

It turned out to be Ling Tiancheng, I don't know how long he had been standing there, with his back to them, as if he was looking up at the sky, or thinking about something.

It wasn't until he heard a noise behind him that he turned around, and his eyes suddenly moved to Zhuang Siyan's face.

Qingfeng doesn't need to look at this situation, what happened between the emperor and Mr. Si, or what will happen, is not something he can put his beak, or it is more reliable to go to the prison alone to see the criminal.

As soon as he left, Ling Tiancheng spoke first: "I heard Du Jixin say that you didn't eat at night, what's wrong?" Is the food here not to taste? ”

Zhuang Siyan didn't want to talk to him about these useless things at all, leaving Jia Xian's stalk aside, she had a lot of things to ask him about Luo Hecheng at this time.

"Let's not talk about the meal first, tell me first, why didn't you stay in the palace and came here."

Ling Tiancheng didn't reply to her, but looked at her face with deep eyes.

That look was too obvious to ignore, and Zhuang Siyan was a little embarrassed when he saw it: "Oh, what is that, as soon as I leave the palace, I will forget that you are the emperor, so I speak a little pretty, I'm sorry!" ”

"It's okay, I didn't want to put on any emperor's stand in front of Yan'er, but I haven't seen you for a long time, I ......."

He didn't say anything, but his eyes clearly betrayed him.

The affection was not hidden at all, and she kept rushing to Zhuang Siyan's side, but it seemed that she didn't understand etiquette, didn't understand the amorous feelings, and didn't take care of the emperor's temperament.

If she continued like this, she wouldn't be able to ask anything, and maybe Ling Tiancheng would see a little guilt, which was really excessive.

Zhuang Siyan hates the feeling of passivity, and even hates Ling Tiancheng for using emotional things to pressure herself, obviously she is not wrong, it is obviously his own scumbag behavior, she has already shown a lot of generosity, out of sight is pure, why do you still come here to abuse herself to find a sense of existence?

Thinking about it like this, I felt even more annoyed, waved my hand and said, "Don't talk about those things, you better talk about Luo He first, look at your arrangements in the teahouse, it seems that you are very familiar with the things here." ”

It's best to get down to business, don't talk about feelings, don't hurt money, and you won't be sad.

Ling Tiancheng is now good as long as he can be with her, and only when he is together can the relationship improve.

"I do know a little bit about things here, so I'll tell you about it slowly, but you'd better eat something for now."

Zhuang Siyan glanced indoors: "Then let's go over and say, if you don't want to eat, eat some together, but let me tell you, the food here is really not as good as the capital." ”

It's much more comfortable to talk like this, the previous awkwardness and discomfort are uncomfortable, and the little Jiujiu in their hearts is also put down for the time being.

Ling Tiancheng really talked about a long thing, from when he was a child, they talked about Luo Hecheng together.

Zhuang Siyan couldn't help but sigh when he heard it: "This has been a trouble for a long time, the matter of Luo Hecheng is still related to the capital, we came from so far away, and in the end we still dealt with the same thing?" ”

Seeing Ling Tiancheng nodded, she immediately said, "Then we have to talk about this matter, even if you don't sign a new contract, you have to add money." ”

In the past, when he encountered this kind of thing, Ling Tiancheng would agree to it.

The little money that Zhuang Siyan asked for was nothing to him at all, as long as he could make her happy.

But today, for some reason, he actually calculated: "Yan'er, if you say so, I will calculate it carefully with you." Of course, it's okay to add money, but I'm also involved in this matter, and I saved you, so do you have to reduce my share first? ”
