Chapter 32: Exploring Yizhuang at Night

When Miss Liu returned to the Liufu Mansion again, Yun Xiu didn't wait for her at the door like last time, but it was the best.

But as soon as she entered the courtyard, Miss Liu sat down in the house, and came in from the door in an uproar, and the house servants Ah Su, Ah Ming, Chunlin, and then Yun Xiu walked in.

They walked in with trays, bowls and chopsticks in turn, and placed them on the table, and at once there were several dishes on the table.

Miss Liu glanced at the dishes on the table indifferently, and then looked at Yun Xiu, "What is this for?" ”

"The dish for you." Yun Xiu pursed his lips and smiled, "Try it, it's delicious, donkey meat, I just ate it in a restaurant outside and brought it back for you." ”

Miss Liu's face changed slightly, she never ate donkey meat. Oh no, it should be said that she never eats donkey meat.

"Pull it off, I won't eat this."

Yun Xiu's expression suddenly stiffened.

Chunlin didn't know whether to withdraw or not, and looked at Young Master Yun and waited for him to speak. Since this period of time, Chunlin has been unable to figure out Miss Liu's temperament, and even more at a loss for her preferences.

Yun Xiu looked at Miss Liu with a smile on his face, his eyes brightened, and asked her softly, "You really don't want to eat it?" It's rare for me to bring back donkey meat and make it myself, so you can eat as much as you want. ”

Yun Xiu picked up the chopsticks and handed them to Miss Liu, waiting for her.

Maybe the former Liu Piaoyi really ate donkey meat, if she refuses again, isn't it Miss Liu?

After hesitating, Miss Liu slowly caught the chopsticks handed to her by Yun Xiu.

Yun Xiu smiled naturally at this time.

Chunlin took a light breath, thinking that Young Master Yun could always make Miss Liu compromise. On the way back from Kyoto to Luodingzhou, Miss Liu had already compromised several times.

Chunlin doesn't know why Miss has always been a vegetarian in recent days, she is afraid that Miss will be in poor health, but Miss Liu just doesn't eat meat.

Anyway, in the past few days, Young Master Yun has changed his way to let Miss Liu eat meat, eat chicken yesterday, and eat donkey today. But every time it was time to eat, Miss Liu didn't move the chopsticks, and Young Master Yun waited like this, waiting until she took the chopsticks.

It's the same again.

Young Master Yun naturally sat down next to Miss Liu, and Chunlin watched from the side, covering her mouth and laughing.

"Just eat a little." Miss Liu said indifferently with a complicated expression.

"Not at all." Yun Xiu looked at her with a gentle smile.

~~~~~~~~~

On the bank of the Luojing River, the villagers found two corpses, the corpses were hacked to death with knives, and a white cloth was set on the tree next to the corpse, and a lotus flower was embroidered on the white cloth.

After the villagers found out, they reported it to the government, and the government had sent soldiers to the scene to investigate, and the preliminary conclusion was that the White Lotus Sect of the Jianghu sect had done it.

For a while, the people of Luodingzhou were panicked, and they were all talking about the White Lotus Sect, and the Luodingzhou Yamen was even more in a radius of dozens of miles to find disciples related to the White Lotus Sect.

In the past few years, the imperial court has regarded the White Lotus Sect as a thief, a cult that is openly opposed to the imperial court, and the object of vigorous pursuit by the imperial court.

But the people of Luoding Prefecture don't think so, they think that the White Lotus Sect is a righteous warrior, a chivalrous warrior who confronts the imperial court in many places for the sake of the people's survival.

The people of Luoding Prefecture are too many Yao people, who belong to ethnic minorities. Yao people have their own Yao people's way of doing things, their own ideas, their own recognition and criminal law.

Obeying the arrangement of the imperial court is too much of their rejection, and even more so disapproval. The imperial court could not dissuade it, so it was suppressed by the local government.

Four years ago, the army of Ling Yunyi, the governor of Liangguang, was killed, which was a beginning, and it was also a confrontation between the imperial court and a few famous clans.

Although after that time, the imperial court began to appease the Yao people, relaxed more policies, and reduced the taxes that the Yao people were unwilling to pay, and the life of the people was slightly more stable than in previous years, but not all the court officials were the kind of officials who considered the people.

Some officials who take the state's money and grain are still in private with the attitude of being far away from the emperor and letting me do whatever I want.

The White Lotus Sect still exists, exists with the people, and more among the people, and the people of Soroding Prefecture heard that the government concluded that the murderer was committed by the White Lotus Sect, and they did not want to believe that the White Lotus Sect killed innocents indiscriminately.

Even when the soldiers of the government came to inquire about the case, no one would say who the White Lotus priest was.

Those government soldiers always encountered a nose of ash everywhere, and after returning to the official mansion, they even publicized that the White Lotus Sect had made people fall into demons, and the people maintained it everywhere.

When Miss Liu heard Ah Su talk about these things in the courtyard, she was a little stunned, and she thought of Su Qingshan. She knew that Su Qingshan was also in Luoding City, and that person was a White Lotus Sect, her first reaction was that this murder case on the bank of the Luojing River could be done by Su Qingshan?

If it is true, then Su Qingshan will become the culprit of innocent killings. But is he that kind of person?

In Kyoto, those people kidnapped her to save her brother, but why is this happening?

After thinking about it, Miss Liu asked, "Who is the one who died?" ”

Ah Su took a deep breath and replied to Miss Liu, "The prefect's nephew and entourage. ”

Yun Xiu pursed his lips on the side and said, "The current prefect of Luoding Prefecture, Lin Zhong, can't be underestimated, his cousin is a servant of the Nanjing Ministry of Officials, and his family is dead, it seems that it will not be so easy to forget it." ”

There was gloom in Miss Liu's eyes, it seemed that Luo Dingcheng was about to start a heat wave again, and this heat wave was still related to the White Lotus Sect.

Where is Su Qingshan at this time, Miss Liu is a little worried.

Miss Liu was going out again, Yun Xiu grabbed her this time, and said worriedly, "It's not been peaceful outside recently, I'll accompany you when you want to go out." ”

Miss Liu didn't refuse this time, and nodded indifferently in agreement. She didn't go anywhere, but just went to the market to listen to what the people were saying about the matter, and to see what kind of action the prefect's yamen was making.

On the streets, the criminal department of the yamen was openly looking for people everywhere, and no matter who they were, as long as they felt suspicious, they were brought back to the yamen for interrogation, and only after approving ordinary people were released.

For a while, people were panicked, fearing that they would be considered White Lotus Sectists, and there would be no return. Compared with the past, there were suddenly fewer people on the streets in the past two days, and they were obviously hiding at home and did not dare to go out.

~~~~~~~

This incident was not done by Su Qingshan, but someone killed someone in the name of the White Lotus Sect, Su Qingshan felt that he could not be excused, and he really wanted to find out who this murderer was.

Su Qingshan wore a cyan cloth coat and a hat, came to the scene of the murder, and investigated, wanting to confirm what kind of signs it was, and also wanted to find out what was suspicious. But the murder scene has been cleaned up, and only a few blood stains remain on the grass.

Late at night, Su Qingshan once again sneaked into the suburban Yizhuang where the government yamen came to stop the mortuary, and wanted to find out what kind of murder method the murderer used to kill from the death method of the corpse.

Yizhuang was deep and cold, no one dared to come in the middle of the night, and even the corpse keepers who guarded Yizhuang returned early to sleep in the wooden house on the side.

Su Qingshan quietly entered, accustomed to seeing people die, and no longer had that kind of fear in his heart. He looked through the cloth covering the corpse, looking for the two people who had been killed.

Just as he was carefully examining the victim's wound and what sharp weapon it was, he suddenly heard footsteps outside the house. Dodging, Su Qingshan hid behind a broken and unusable wooden cabinet stacked in the dark in the corner of the wall.

The door of Yizhuang was gently pushed open, and in the dark night, Su Qingshan saw a Luo skirt walking in, obviously a woman, but she couldn't see her clearly in the dark.

The woman, like him, was looking at the corpse.

Su Qingshan knew very well that this person was also here to find the two corpses, but he didn't know what the identity of this woman was, whether it was for the same purpose as him to find out who the murderer was, or for other purposes.

Su Qingshan didn't care who she was, she wanted to know if she was a friend or foe at this time, a flash mob had already arrived in front of the woman, and she knocked on the woman's neck with one hand, afraid that the keeper would hear it, so she snorted softly, "Who are you!" ”

"Su Qingshan." The woman spat out his name.

Su Qingshan was even more surprised, he didn't want this woman to know him, and the strength in his hand tightened again, "Who the hell are you!" ”

Miss Liu was so pinched that she couldn't speak, and if she didn't tell her identity, she was afraid that she would be strangled to death by him.

"Willow - Drifting Memory." She said her name in a hoarse voice.

Su Qingshan's eyebrows suddenly became heavy, of course he understood who the woman with this name was. He had seen her twice, once in person and once at the Xuzhou Inn.

"Youβ€”let go, if you have anything to say, let goβ€”say more."

Miss Liu peeled his hands at her neck.

Thinking of a woman he had more than enough to deal with, he let go, and wondered what the purpose of such a young lady in the boudoir had come to this Yizhuang to care about this matter.

After he let go, Miss Liu took a big breath to calm herself.

"Say, what are you doing here!" Su Qingshan said coldly.

"Find out the truth." Miss Liu replied with plastic surgery.

Su Qingshan sneered, "Why are you so concerned about this matter?" ”

In the dark night, there was no light in Yizhuang, Miss Liu looked at Su Qingshan, although she couldn't see clearly, but she knew that Su Qingshan's expression at this time must be full of doubts.

"It seems that you are not a murderer." Miss Liu said lightly.

Su Qingshan snorted lightly, "If I were a murderer, I would still need to come to this ghost place in the middle of the night." ”

"Could that have been done by other White Lotus Cultists?" Miss Liu asked next.

Su Qingshan reacted and knocked on her neck again, "You know that I am a member of the White Lotus Sect, what do you have in mind?" ”

"Let goβ€”" Miss Liu struggled again.

Su Qingshan frowned slightly, and only after hesitating did he let go of his hand again.

Miss Liu touched the neck that was pinched by him, glared at him, and then said slowly, "I saw you go to worship Luo Yan, so I know, I know Luo Yan, he is a White Lotus Sect." ”

Su Qingshan was surprised, staring at Miss Liu in disbelief, puzzled, "You and Brother Luo were friends back then?" ”

"Hmm." Miss Liu nodded, "It's a friend, we met a few times a few years ago, and we have a good relationship." ”

Su Qingshan still didn't believe it, but seeing that she could see herself going to worship Luo Yan, she must have gone that day.

"You also worshiped Brother Luo that day?"

"Yes, I just said that I know Luo Yan, so I went back to Luo Dingcheng to worship him." Miss Liu replied to him very seriously, without any expression of lying on her face.

Su Qingshan slowly believed her, thinking that they were all friends, but he kidnapped her that day, he was a little apologetic, and hurriedly said, "I am sorry for the kidnapping of you that time, I didn't know at the time." ”

Miss Liu chuckled, "It's okay, it's over, I didn't pay attention to it." ”
