Shen Lingjun held the reins of the return wind, and looked puzzled: "The woman said just now that she is often away from home, and it is strange enough for a single woman to go out and rent a house alone, not to mention that she has not been at home for three days, what do you say she is going to do?" ”

Su Musha held the sword in one hand and held the falling snow in the other hand, his posture was chic and casual, and his voice was light: "If Hong Tian is telling the truth, then her death is abrupt, since she is in love with the son of the Chen family, why did she commit suicide by jumping into the river." ”

Shen Lingjun was also a little puzzled: "How can a person fall in love with two men at the same time, and the same person is the matchmaker for her." ”

Speaking of this, Shen Lingjun asked the official who led the way: "Where is Lu Yun's body now?" ”

The official stopped, turned around and said, "Lord Hui Siqing, there is no body. ”

Shen Lingjun was stunned: "What's the matter?" ”

"Strange to say, the river is not very fast, and it was not the time of high tide that day, but we salvaged along the river for three days, but we didn't find any bodies." As the servant replied, he took two steps slower and gradually walked with them.

Shen Lingjun unconsciously tapped the back of the knife with his fingers and asked the officer: "Have you continued to salvage?" ”

The official shook his head: "Because many people followed Zhao Zhutou to the first village, and the people left were not enough, we saw that no one was salvaged for three days, and when we returned to Lord Hong, he asked us to stop the salvage." ”

Shen Lingjun nodded: "What did the Chen family say?" ”

"I heard that the son of the Chen family is infatuated, and he sent his own subordinates to search for Lu Yun's body for a long time, but there is no news."

Shen Lingjun pinched his chin with his fingers and said to himself, "It's strange." ”

When the three of them found the matchmaker's house, the two of them were having dinner.

Shen Lingjun patted the half-person-high wooden door, Mrs. Zhang came to open the door, and habitually began to look at people, thinking that this girl's beautiful Peugeot is quite suitable to introduce to the youngest son of the old man's family in the south of the city, and asked: "What family is this girl, but what about looking for me to be a matchmaker?" ”

The official shouted: "What girl, this is Lord Siqing." ”

Mrs. Zhang was taken aback, and greeted the three of them in a proper manner, but she has always been tactful, and immediately saluted and smiled: "It turned out to be Lord Siqing, I don't know what to do with the people's women?" At the same time, he also greeted his husband: "Old man, go and make tea for the three officials." ”

Shen Lingjun got straight to the point and said, "Lu Yun knows, right?" ”

"Miss Lu......" Mrs. Zhang smiled: "That's naturally knowing." ”

"You also know Yao Qingyu and Chen Liji?" Su Musha's slightly cool voice came from behind Mrs. Zhang.

Just now, Shen Lingjun and the officials blocked it, but Mrs. Zhang didn't see it, and when she saw it, she was stunned for a moment.

She has been a matchmaker for many years, and she has seen a handsome boy, and she doesn't have this number, so the old problem is committed again, and she can't help but think in her heart, this character wants to be put in her hand, which girl can match it, and after going around in her mind for a while, she didn't find a suitable one, and then in a blink of an eye, she saw Shen Lingjun's figure wandering around, and she couldn't help but pat her thighs, isn't this a match made in heaven!

Seeing that she was stunned, the official interrupted her reverie and said loudly: "Mrs. Zhang, the adults ask you, hurry up." ”

"Huh? What the? ”

The official said in a rough voice: "I ask you Yao Qingyu and Chen Liji, do you know each other?" ”

"This ......" Mrs. Zhang heard that it was because these two people came to find herself, her face changed abruptly, and she said a little hesitantly: "Admit it...... Know. ”

Shen Lingjun put his hands behind his back, shook it in front of her, and said with a smile: "Auntie, don't be nervous, let's just ask a few questions." ”

Mrs. Zhang was stunned by Shen Lingjun's smiling face, and nodded, "Okay, good." ”

"Have you heard about Lu Yun jumping into the river and committing suicide?" Shen Lingjun said.

Mrs. Zhang sighed: "Eh...... That day, I happened to go to Chen's house to discuss the marriage between the two families, and I heard this bad news without thinking about it. ”

Mrs. Zhang's husband came out with a pot of tea, and Mrs. Zhang poured tea for the three of them, and said with a smile: "Adults drink tea." ”

Shen Lingjun sat down, didn't bother to take the teacup, stared into her eyes, and continued: "However, you must not know that Yao Gongzi is also dead......

"What?!" Mrs. Zhang was startled, the water poured on her hand, and she exhaled in pain.

At this time, Mrs. Zhang's husband slapped the table and pointed at Mrs. Zhang with trembling hands: "Look at what you have done, I will let you do less of this lack of morality, but you just don't listen, what is happening, something happened." ”

Mrs. Zhang said with a panicked face: "I didn't know it would be like this......" As she spoke, she collapsed on the seat and slapped her thighs with both hands: "Ouch, my mother, what kind of sin have I made......"

The official said impatiently: "Okay, talk well, if you don't want to go to jail, hurry up and cooperate with the adults to investigate the case." ”

Su Musha stood beside Shen Lingjun and said to Mrs. Zhang, "You just have to say what you know." ”

Mrs. Zhang cried and grabbed the ground, cleaned up her emotions, and said depressedly: "Master Qingtian, this matter really has nothing to do with me, this is the matchmaker that Miss Lu asked me to protect, I am greedy for two matchmakers' money, I really didn't expect to cause death." ”

"You have been a matchmaker for so many years, have you ever seen a daughter and a second husband?"

Mrs. Zhang stopped talking, and Mrs. Zhang's husband said angrily, "You haven't honestly explained to the officials and gentlemen, you, you, do you really want to go to prison when you are old." ”

"I say, I say!" Mrs. Zhang's frightened face turned white, and she confessed: "I thought Miss Lu just wanted to play fairy jumping, so ...... I just thought that the Yao family and the Chen family are rich people, and it doesn't matter if they are cheated of some money or something, but where could I have thought that Miss Lu suddenly committed suicide by jumping into the river, and now even Yao Gongzi has followed, I would have known that even if I was given ten times more silver, I wouldn't dare to do this. ”

Su Mu's dark eyes swept over like ice, and Mrs. Zhang, who was looking at it, didn't dare to look back, and said in a cool voice: "Where is Lu Yun from?" ”

Mrs. Zhang didn't dare to hesitate this time, and said: "I asked her, and she claimed to be from Yizhou, but my accent is not like that at all." ”

Shen Lingjun propped up the table with one hand and said, "I don't even know her details, so you can be a matchmaker for others." ”

Mrs. Zhang had a bitter face: "Where can I think so much......"

Shen Lingjun waved her hand, stopped her defense, and said, "What else do you know?" ”

Mrs. Zhang shook her head: "No, I really don't know, everything I know has been explained." ”

Shen Lingjun looked at Mrs. Zhang with big eyes like a cat, and knew that she didn't need to hide it, so he said: "First of all, I'll ask people to come to you to draw a portrait of Lu Yun when I go back, if you think of anything again, take the initiative to go to the county government to confess." ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Seeing that Shen Lingjun and they had no intention of arresting her to the government, Mrs. Zhang secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, wiped a layer of cold sweat on her forehead, and nodded vigorously: "I know, I will definitely explain." ”

Finally sent Shen Lingjun and them out, and when Mrs. Zhang closed the door, she sat directly on the ground, couldn't get up for a long time, and stretched out her hand weakly and said, "Old man, help me." ”

Mrs. Zhang's husband pulled her to sit down on a stool: "How many times have I told you, don't make money with your conscience." ”

Mrs. Zhang sighed: "Alas, I won't dare to do it again in the future." ”

The shadow of the sun is slanting to the west, and the afterglow is shining.

Shen Lingjun asked the little servant to go back first, and he and Su Musha led the horse and walked on the streets of Danfeng Mansion.

In the evening, Danfeng Mansion is still lively, and the hawkers compete to shout in order to do two more businesses before closing the stalls. The restaurants also began to solicit customers at the door, and each one was more attentive and thoughtful.

The two of them randomly chose a restaurant that looked more magnificent, handed the horse to Xiao Er and led it to the stables to feed, and went upstairs to choose a private seat first.

After ordering a few local specialties, Shen Lingjun poured a cup of tea for himself and Su Musha, and while waiting for the meal, he wondered: "Lu Yun asked Mrs. Zhang to guarantee the Chen family and the Yao family, but what does she want to do like this?" ”

Su Musha held the teacup and said lightly: "It's not clear what she wants to do, but one thing is clear, if she really wants to do something, she can't easily jump into the river and commit suicide." ”

"Well, it seems that her death is also suspicious." Shen Lingjun tilted his head to support his head, his index finger dipped the two drops of tea that had been spilled on the table, and smeared it casually: "Could it be that the golden cicada is out of its shell after the matter is completed?" ”

Su Musha groaned: "She took such pains to separate the Yao family and the Chen family, I guess there are two reasons, the first is that she has a grudge against these two families; The second is that competitors in the business field take the opportunity to stir up trouble, so as to reap the benefits of fishermen. ”

Shen Lingjun felt that there was some truth when he heard it, his fingers turned into a circle, and he said: "After I go back, I will ask Li Yi to check ......"

Suddenly remembered something, and pointed his finger: "Yao Qingyu also has a hexagram on her body, do you think she will have something to do with the death of Lei Hucheng and Ji Hongfei?" ”

"It's hard to judge now, Yao Qingyu's death is still in doubt, it depends on what Miss Ye says." Su Musha took a sip of tea and said slowly.

Shen Lingjun hesitated: "And don't you think it's strange, except for Lu Yun who doesn't know life and death, the rest of the deceased are all members of the five major families." ”

Su Musha nodded: "There must be some connection between this." ”

It's just that now there is a fog shrouded in it, and the sun can only be seen when the clouds are removed.

Xiao Er came over to deliver the meal, and the two of them didn't say anything more because they had to hurry back after eating.

When he returned to the first village, it was already dark, Shen Lingjun had just washed his face, and Li Yi came in from outside.

Li Yi hugged his fists and said, "My lord, I have checked all the people related to Yao Qingyu, and I can't find anything suspicious." ”

"You ask Shen and Mao Li to go to the Chen family in the neighboring village to find out what opponents the Chen family and the Yao family have in business, and also, when you go back, the Danfeng Mansion official will send Lu Yun's portrait over, no matter what, find her." Shen Lingjun finished speaking in one breath.

"Yes." Li Yi didn't say much, and hurriedly went out to do errands.

At noon on the second day, Li Yi rushed over sweating profusely and said to Shen Lingjun: "It has been found out that the Yao family has been in the tea business all year round, while the Chen family is mainly engaged in rice, and the two have never intersected, let alone have a common opponent in the business field." ”

Shen Lingjun fell into deep thought after hearing this, so after ruling out this item, that is, Lu Yun has a grudge against these two families? But who is she, and what is the hatred?
