In September, the lotus leaves on the lake have begun to wither, and large lotus canopies rush out of the water, absorbing nutrients from nature.

The man was dressed in a black robe, and even in this autumn day, he was not afraid of the heat. It was very stuffy in the study, and the white-haired puppy lying on his stomach at the door stuck out his tongue, looking extremely hot. The man was holding a brush in his fingers, writing and drawing on the paper, and his cold expression was slightly impatient. Suddenly, a drop of hot sweat slipped down his forehead, blurring the ink on the paper.

"Damn it!" In the scorching heat, the man's temper was also a little more irritable. I picked up the handkerchief on the side and wiped the paper lightly, but the durability was too great, and the paper was torn. Angrily threw the veil aside, and the man's eyebrows were full of anger. His fingers subconsciously reached under the table, but he didn't grasp anything. When I looked up, the chair opposite me was empty, and there was nothing.

Shangguan Mingxin couldn't help but hold the corners of his forehead and sighed silently. I've only been away for a while, and I'm not used to it. I'm used to holding her palm, and I'm used to the slightly cool temperature of her body, but I'm afraid that the stupid girl doesn't like to hold her palm at all, and every time she has a very disgusted expression. couldn't help but cover his face with his palm, he didn't need to look at it to imagine that he must be a longing at this moment.

Thinking that he Shangguan Mingxin also had this experience today, he shouldn't have laughed at Zhao Ning for being managed by Mu Qian'er at that time. The little guy never cared about him, but he himself had already made up for it, and it was really flattering.

"Alas~" sighed, and the handsome man's face was full of trouble at the moment. I can't leave her for a moment, but what about her? I don't want to stay with myself for a while longer, it's really hurtful, and if I continue like this, how long will I be able to sleep with the beautiful woman. Are women so hard to please? But it was clear that he saw that others were not like this. Most of the women I have seen before are gentle, weak, and in need of protection.

But she is different, not only is she very self-reliant, but she is also bold enough to pretend to be a man. If she hadn't been discovered by herself that day, would she have been like this for the rest of her life? thought that if he hadn't discovered her identity, he would have made the first move. Maybe the beautiful woman will fall into the arms of others one day, and she can't help but panic.

How can I get her to be closer to herself? He really wants to see her kissing you and being coquettish. That day is far away.

Thinking about it with his fingers, Shangguan Mingxin suddenly sighed again. It turned out that he had never given her almost a flattering gadget. Women are probably fond of jewelry, but the only time they have given away clothes is just a high-sounding reason.

"Shangguan Mingxin, you can be a little more stupid." Helpless by his own stupidity, Shangguan Mingxin lay in the palm of his hand, and suddenly felt that the future was dark. It can be seen that even if she is so close to her, she has no intention of marrying her. Could it be that it is really because of different regions and different education that she has been created so different? Why can't you soften a little bit and get attached to yourself? It's better than having gained and lost without her.

"Today, I miss you very much." In the study, a deep sigh was heard.

"Ahh

"Ah Ye, are you okay?" Leng Zexian asked worriedly, "Did you catch a cold yesterday?" "Thinking that yesterday 'he' and the adults were drenched in the rain, the cold was a little worried at first." Do you want to go back first? Are you uncomfortable? You've already sneezed twice today. ”

Qian Ye rubbed his nose, which was still a little itchy, and said indifferently: "It's okay, maybe someone misses me behind my back!" Didn't you say it, someone misses you and will definitely sneeze. "Except for the adults of her family, don't think about him. Anyway, she wouldn't take the initiative to think of her enemies.

How does he remember that someone is sneezing behind your back or scolding you? Could it be that the folk customs of Fusang are different from those of Great Xia?

"You wait, the food will be delivered soon." The only thing Leng Zexian knows now is that Qianye's enthusiasm for eating is different from ordinary people, so he said so. "After eating, there are still some things to deal with, so let's go back to Six Doors for the time being. I just don't know, have you found a list of people who have had a quarrel or dispute with Lord Wang? If there is, it must be much simpler. ”

"I advise you not to put your hopes on the list. What if this murderer was invited by someone who secretly hated Lord Wang? That way, the person won't be on the list. Also, I think Lord Wang is in the way of anyone's wealth, so he was assassinated. "It's no wonder that Qianye is so guessing, people say that officialdom is dark, and her suspicions are also in common sense!

"I don't know if you remember the case of the Shen family in Jiangnan that I dealt with with my adults last time? The murderer of the Yang family is Shen Yan, who has never crossed paths with her. And Shen Yan's reason for killing was because of his eldest brother Shen Zongwen, because he didn't want him to be dragged down by such a dirty woman again. If you talk about it, he should be the least suspicious person, but he happens to be the murderer. Thinking that he almost killed a bowl of ordinary worthless mung bean soup that day, Qianye felt a little uncomfortable. Anyway, take something valuable, if she really dies, others will say it, and she will really be ashamed to die.

"After your reminder, it suddenly became enlightened." Leng Zexian chuckled and said, "It seems that our Ah Ye has a great talent for judging cases!" ”

Qian Ye rolled his eyes, for the style of his elder. "But this case is just the two of us, it's really a bit pitiful!"

"Who's to say it isn't! When employing people, you can't even find a usable person. Zhao Ningmu Qian'er has gone to other places, and everyone else is also very busy. Even the Mo family brothers have recently gone to the Northland, and there are only about you and me in the six doors. ”

"Speaking of which, I heard that Qian'er went after a fugitive?" Qian Ye will ask the news he heard casually on the road.

"Not a fugitive. It is a river and ocean thief, this person is extremely cruel, occupying the mountain as the king and plundering wealth. But the reason why he really entrusted it to Six Doors was because he killed the wife of Golden Dao Zhao Qi, so he was chased by Six Doors. ”

"Oh?" Qian Ye picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and then said, "I thought the Jianghu people would have their own solution." ”

"Naturally, there is. If the people of the rivers and lakes kill each other, there is nothing strange about them. Knowing that this Zhao Qi is a very decent person, he doesn't just want to kill this thief directly, but wants to see him stand trial and see him die under the butcher's knife of the executioner of the imperial court. ”

"Tsk, it sounds like this man is quite ruthless." If this thief is in a prison with six doors. It is inevitable that you will not be tortured, and I heard that it is much more terrifying than death.

"It's human nature. But Zhao Qi is indeed smart, if he kills the thief directly, then the process of revenge is too boring. Moreover, he was handed over to the six doors to chase down, and he didn't save running back and forth, didn't he? At least Leng Ze first felt that the other party was slamming the door like this, it must be to save the cost of transportation and horses.

"Don't think of people as bad, maybe he's just being law-abiding."

"Guest, your dish is here." The voice of the shopkeeper interrupted the conversation between the two.

Leng Ze first saw that Qianye's eyes were almost glued to those meals, and he didn't feel it. Only a carefree person like Ah Ye can be the other half of an adult's destiny. Therefore, there was no word about the people around him between the adults and Ah Ye, just because they were very relieved to see the adults showing soft expressions. After so many years, adults can finally live like an ordinary person.

"Brother Leng, don't you want to eat?" Raising his head from the plate, Qian Ye said with a puzzled expression.

"Eat, why don't you eat." Leng Ze smiled first, picked up the chopsticks and ate.

Immediately after the meal, the two men got into the carriage and returned to the six gates.

"Doctor Zhou, help me check, what kind of incense ash is this?" As soon as he entered the door, Leng Ze spoke first.

Qian Ye came to Dr. Zhou's place of work once, and when he saw a strong smell of medicine floating in the air, he couldn't help frowning. The room was full of all kinds of medicinal herbs, and there were medicine cabinets all around, just like a medicine shop. If you put a sign at the door, you might be able to open it.

"You come with me." Doctor Zhou was used to someone breaking into his room in a hurry, so he put down the herbs in his hand very calmly and said to the two.

When Qianye followed in the footsteps of Dr. Zhou, he realized that there was something else in this room. When she saw the sizable basement, it was more than just jaw-dropping. Especially the various tools placed in that room, if these tools are more modern, if Dr. Zhou changes into a white coat, it will be like a modern laboratory.

"The smell outside is too mixed, it's more convenient here."

Leng Ze first carefully handed the box to Dr. Zhou, and the box contained the incense ash taken out of the incense burner. The cold is the last one that burns first, and the color is grayish-white, with a faint yellowish tinge.

Dr. Zhou only sniffed it and gave the answer. "This is acacia incense, where did you get it?"

"Acacia?" Qian Ye frowned, inexplicably feeling that this name was not very good.

"As the name suggests, this acacia incense is a kind of medicine for rejuvenation."

Leng Zexian first looked a little bad after hearing Dr. Zhou's words. "This was found in the incense burner in Lord Wang's study."

"Then ......" Dr. Zhou also thought of something, and couldn't help but widen his eyes. In this way, Lord Wang was not necessarily conscious when he was killed. But I still have a question that I haven't figured out, why didn't Liuzi hear any unusual noise outside the door? "For example, the sound of conversation, it is the voice of Lord Wang when he was dying, why didn't he hear it?

"I also think this is very strange. It stands to reason that he stood at the door, and there was no reason why he could not hear this. Unless," as soon as this idea came up, Leng Zexian vetoed it himself.

"Unless? Unless what? Qian Ye asked anxiously.
