She is not arrogant on weekdays, and she rarely loses her temper with people. But that day was an exception, she was originally in high spirits, but because she accidentally bumped into this man, she was directly pushed on her head, and even this seemingly gentle man glared at her for a long time with a pair of terrifying eyes.

It's a pity that although she has been pampered since she was a child, she can't stand the fact that the imperial uncle and the third uncle around her are very oppressive people, so naturally she won't really be frightened. So, when the apology was fruitless, she whipped in anger.

The reason why I didn't tell the third uncle and Xu Chu afterwards was naturally because I was worried that they would think that they were bullying others and being willful and unreasonable.

After Xiao Qinglang heard what Xiao Mingzhu said, he waved his hand directly, allowing Wei Guang to roll up Liu Qingyun's sleeve, and there was a whip mark on his white arm.

If that's the case, then it's Liu Qingyun in front of him, who was already in Liu's house when they investigated the case. However, the Liu family, whether it is Liu Wengui or the people in the house, will never mention this, so there are only two possibilities.

One is that he sneaked home. The second is that he is not Liu Qingyun at all!

If you go home secretly, no matter how well you hide it, I am afraid that it will not be traceless. However, if he is not Liu Qingyun at all, then why did he come, and why did he pretend to be Liu Qingyun?

Xiao Qinglang turned his head and asked Zhang Youwei, "Have you ever seen Liu Qingyun and the young master of the Liu family?" ”

"When the official took office, Liu Qingyun had been away for many years, so the official really hadn't seen me. It's just that I often hear Jing mention that when Liu Zhen gets together with her, he often sighs and sighs and is full of sorrow because his son can't go home all year round. ”

Zhang Youwei's mind was racing, and he understood what Xiao Qinglang meant almost instantly. Co-authored, this one didn't play on the topic at all, but really found out that something was wrong!

It's just that although he is loyal, he is not stupid, and he will naturally not trust anyone before the people below return the gift.

At this time, the official who had gone to search the carriage also returned, saying that there was no luggage and clothes in the carriage. And the groom was also told the truth, he was actually just a chauffeur in the countryside, and he was hired to be the coachman of this son.

Although Zhang's investigation methods are not clever, his mind is not slow. After this change, he naturally understood the Tao, and immediately shouted: "Come on, tie him up!" ”

Now it is in the rear office, and the left and right are the officials and officials who follow, so there is no need to change people, let alone the guards behind Xiao Qinglang. The official was surprised, but he didn't dare to doubt the adult's words, so he immediately responded and took two steps forward to hold the person down.

Liu Qingyun didn't expect that before he could say a few words, he was detained, and immediately struggled again, and shouted with gloomy eyes: "There is really no royal law, how can you be a scoundrel and a good person at will." Let go of me, I will go to the Yamen of the Governor of Jinzhou City to sue you! ”

At this time, he changed his elegant temperament just now, but he was a little more domineering and angry.

But Xiao Qinglang was so interrupted, and something suddenly flashed through her mind. Liu Zhen's fake death, as well as the pink gold beads......

If Liu Qingyun in front of him is fake, and it has not been debunked after meeting Liu Wengui, then everything seems to have been explained.

"Impostors, threats and temptations, you really have a one-handed fight back with your mind." Xiao Qinglang's face sank like water, looked at Liu Qingyun and said in a light tone, "You dare to say that you have wronged a good person." Since you are not convinced in your heart, it is better to make a final decision on the merits when the Yamen is temporarily suspended and when Liu Zhen's case is concluded. ”

He said it calmly, as if he had insight into the whole case. This made Xu Chu purse his lips again, a little unsure of what to think.

In fact, she knew in her heart that she was nothing more than the ability to perform an autopsy higher than others, and even let Xiao Qinglang, a great god, take a look at it. But if you really talk about the ability to push the case, maybe you are a little inferior to him.

Whether it was the original Five Elements Case or the Copper Mine Case, or even the headless female corpse case that is being investigated at the moment, I have just speculated on the cause and motive. But he has never disturbed his thoughts about investigating the case, but he has already mastered everything.

This feeling is very subtle, so subtle that it almost makes Xu Chu feel like a clown jumping in front of him. This made her feel a little frustrated and even a little overwhelmed.

Xiao Qinglang looked at Xu Chu, and when he saw her hesitant expression, he couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle. The helplessness in his eyes made people look clear, and Xu Chu, who had been immersed in his emotions, never understood.

He said to Xu Chu casually: "The next thing is probably to look at Xiao Chu, after all, whether it is the evidence or the layout of the murderous methods, you still need to reveal it." ”

Xu Chu raised his head when he heard this, and saw that his eyes were full of solemnity, and he really didn't mean anything. So he was stunned for a moment, nodded and said respectfully: "Then I still need to bother Lord Zhang to take someone to Liu's house, one to be a witness, and to see how the case of the headless female corpse stole the dragon and turned the phoenix Li Dai Taozhuang." The second is to deter some ghosts, so as not to hurt the innocent at the end of the year. ”

Zhang Youwei was full of suspicion, looked at Xu Chu, and then looked at Xiao Qinglang. Seeing that neither of them had an explanation, he waved his hand and asked the official to take the fake Liu Qingyun down.

"If you want to know how Liu Zhen disappeared unnoticed, and how he carried the headless female corpse to the carriage, it is better to take Mingzhu and wait for half a day. Half a day later, we will go up from Zhuangzi to Liu's house to pick up Mingzhu, and then reenact the scene on the day of the crime in full view of everyone. ”

In fact, everyone present probably guessed that the so-called headless female corpse was not Liu Zhen's after Xu Chu's examination, and then found that the theft and absconding of Peach was different, and they probably guessed that the so-called headless female corpse was Peach at all.

It's just that they haven't been able to figure out why Liu Zhen and Zhu'er, who are so good, suddenly turned into a headless pink. According to the groom, the carriage did not stop on the road, and after the yamen messenger searched along the road, neither the roadside tea shop nor the wine stall where the passers-by rested for a while, but there was no trace of the two women.

What's more, even the three big men with luggage, no one has ever seen them.

Although there are not many people coming and going in winter, if Liu Zhen is a beautiful single woman like Zhu'er, it will inevitably attract more people.

However, from Yunan County to the mountain temple where Liu Zhen was going, no one saw anyone with abnormal expressions along the way. Even the guards sent by Xiao Qinglang didn't find anything.

This situation is as if Liu Zhen and Zhu'er disappeared out of thin air. No one knew where they had gone, not even a shadow had been left.

At the same time, if the three so-called robbers really robbed 100 gold, and even took away Zhu'er's luggage and other things, then their demeanor must be different from ordinary people. However, the official sent to check all the nearby people's homes, and even looked for people who went to the temple to offer incense that day, but no one encountered a road robbery.

In other words, those three bandits were simply aimed at Liu Zhen's carriage. If at the beginning, they could still suspect that Zhu'er secretly colluded with bandits to commit murder for the gold, but why did she die in the end, and at the hands of women?

From this, Xu Chu guessed that probably the so-called big man was just the nearby Zhuang family, just like the coachman hired by the fake Liu Qingyun. After all, the coachman's wound was in the back of the head, which is most likely the murder of the man sitting in the carriage. The left and right will never be the hands of bandits who stand in the way.

In fact, if there is enough time, they will definitely be able to track down who pretended to be bandits to block the way, after all, even if they are hired, then they will definitely get some benefits, as long as they get benefits, they will definitely not leak a trace of rumors.

Unfortunately, the situation is urgent, and the case must be solved before Chinese New Year's Eve. Even with the first day of autopsy, it was only three days, which was really not enough for them to dig out the suspicions one by one.

Xu Chu saw that Xiao Mingzhu was a little unhappy to follow Liu's house and wait, so he immediately said: "Mingzhu, this case is complicated, and if you want to reveal it, you will inevitably need one person to replay Liu Zhen and cooperate with me." I don't believe anyone else except you. ”

She said solemnly, so that the reluctant Xiao Mingzhu had to nod aggrievedly, "Okay." ”

Since Xu Chu had already concluded that the beginning and end of the case began with the Liu family Zhuangzi, he naturally would not hesitate any longer. A few people left the yamen and led people straight to the outskirts of the city.

At this time, the Liu family Zhuangzi was stable, and even if someone came, it did not cause any surprise.

The carriage walked through the fields, and as far as the eye could see, there was only a thin layer of snow on the fields and hills, and there was not a trace of human habit.

I don't know why, Xu Chu, who was sitting in the carriage with Xiao Qinglang at this time, was uneasy. She frowned, and her mind could always think of what Xiao Mingzhu said last night, Xiao Qinglang once favored the daughter of an inspector, and even fell seriously ill for her, and once abandoned the official duties of the three law divisions.

If it is said that the woman can enter and leave the palace at will is just Xiao Qinglang values her ability to perform an autopsy, then how can she say that she is sick because she married away from home? What's more, according to what she saw, Xiao Qinglang was solemn and calm in his official duties, and he would not waste the matter of the Great Zhou Prison for personal matters. However, there was a woman who asked him to make an exception, and even this incident shook the capital.

Xu Chu lowered his eyes and looked at the codex in his hand blankly, but his thoughts did not know where to go. She suppressed the warmth in her eyes, took a deep breath and barely suppressed the tears. It's just that when Yu Guang glanced at the corner of the man's clothes, he still couldn't hide his sourness.

At this time, she probably didn't understand where the sourness in her heart came from. Or, when you already know it, you suddenly lose your heart when you are about to accept it.

Her mind was blank, and her eyes wandered and refused to look at Xiao Qinglang more. The tacit understanding and tenderness that had been born through the catastrophe gradually dissipated as she clenched the white finger bones of the codex.

Xiao Qinglang looked at Xu Chu, who was still with his eyes down, as if he was empty. This sudden change caught him off guard, but he couldn't figure it out.

Yesterday, although she vaguely revealed her heart, she didn't refuse, did she? But why is it just a night/night scene that makes the people who are close at hand suddenly alienate themselves?

He looked at Xu Chu deeply, hesitated for a moment, and reached out to remove the codex from Xu Chu's hand.

"Since you can't see it, don't look at it. Yesterday ......" He was just about to ask, and the carriage slowly stopped, and then Wei Guang's respectful voice came.

"Childe, girl, Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the Liu family has arrived."

Xu Chu suddenly got up as if he had been reborn after a catastrophe, and jumped out of the carriage directly with his skirt in his hand, regardless of the fact that the codex that he had always regarded as a treasure was still in Xiao Qinglang's hand. Then he deliberately moved to the side of the carriage, so as not to be made ripples by Xiao Qinglang's movements.

The morning sun is getting higher, maybe it snowed last night, and now the sun is showing signs of snowing. Therefore, the wind was blowing and it was very cold, which made Xu Chu, who suddenly left the warm carriage, unconsciously shudder.

She rubbed her hands involuntarily, and waited for a long time without seeing any movement in the car. She originally wanted to hang her head and wait, but she couldn't help but wonder, there was nothing wrong with seeing Xiao Qinglang's posture sitting upright just now.

"Childe?" She saw that Wei Guang shouted a few times, but there was no answer inside, so she couldn't help but slowly move forward and whisper.

In response to her, it was still the cold silence of the wind.

"Childe?" Xu Chu felt a little uneasy in his heart, and his mind flashed the assassinations he had encountered, as well as the poison of murder without seeing blood that circulated in the market books. Immediately, she couldn't think about it, almost subconsciously, she stretched out her hand and opened the carriage.

However, when the clothes were opened, the cold wind poured in, and I could vaguely see that the wide-sleeved clothes with dark lines on Xiao Qinglang's body moved with the wind, and she was very handsome and beautiful. In the carriage of light and darkness, the man was as intoxicating as a picture scroll, but those deep eyes added a bit of sharpness to his noble and elegant temperament.

With just one glance, Xu Chu's heart stagnated, and his breathing couldn't help but pause for a moment. After a moment of pause, she quickly put down the clothes she was holding.

"Childe, I'll take the official sent by Master Zhang into Zhuangzi to investigate, and please take care of yourself." Her tone was cold, but others didn't know how she was on her back. Just now, she almost lost her proportion......

Xiao Qinglang made up his mind, and said with a wry smile: "You go first, and I'll ask Wei Guang to drive the carriage for you later." ”

Xu Chu hesitated for a moment, feeling a little uneasy and a little depressed. She hesitated for a moment before she gathered the fox fur and led the people towards the Zhuangzi. And Xiao Qinglang, who was sitting in the carriage from beginning to end, looked at the back of Wei Shang who was gradually moving away, silently restrained his smile, and said to Wei Guang: "Send someone to guard the fake Liu Qingyun, temporarily detain him, and send him to the capital to be personally interrogated by the squire of the Criminal Department after the case is concluded." ”

"Yes." Wei Guang arched his hand and instructed a guard behind him, and when he came back, he looked at the carriage without saying anything, and finally sighed and asked, "Childe, do you want to let Aunt Chu come here?" ”

"No, don't talk about it again." Xiao Qinglang in the car lowered his eyebrows, swept the codex with Xu Chuyuwen in his hand, and shook his head with a chuckle. Sure enough, love is fickle, and it's really distressing.
