Qin Jing'an took a sip of tea, and his unfathomable appearance made Meng Yuyun puzzled.

Meng Yuyun could only figure out his thoughts, and asked cautiously: "Then you mean, these cases are like the practice of the Miaojiang Holy Maiden back then, and the murderer is likely to be her biological child?"

"No, quite the opposite." Qin Jing'an got up and sorted out the file, "Think about it, Hongyan didn't say it when her best friend died, why?" ”

Meng Yuyun replied without thinking: "I'm afraid, she's afraid of retaliation!"

Everyone in this world is like this, no matter how good the relationship is, at the moment when something happens to the other party, they just want to be clean, as if they have never known each other.

At the beginning of the year, the Meng Mansion was still the Prime Minister's Mansion that everyone was talking about, but it was destroyed tragically, and those clan relatives who had been favored did not know where to hide.

"The murderers in these cases are brutal by nature and murderous like hemp. And why did Hongyan risk being hurt by the murderer to give us clues? ”

Qin Jing'an's words quickly drilled into Meng Yuyun's ears, she went through the matter again in her mind, looking at Qin Jing'an's eyes that seemed to be smiling, and the doubts that lingered in her heart for a moment could find the answer.

Yes, after Hongyan said something about the murderer, she always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't say it, and thought she was suspicious.

Now I can figure it out.

Since Hongyan didn't say it before, she was afraid of retaliation, so how could she take the initiative to contact the yamen.

Meng Yuyun's eyes flashed, and she asked with some uncertainty: "Someone wants to set up a blame?"

Qin Jing'an shook his head and corrected, "This is called Li Dai Taozhuang."

Although the person in Hongyan's mouth cannot be completely cleared of suspicion, it also proves that the murderer is hiding in the shadows, observing the direction of the Yamen's investigation all the time.

So when everyone was at a loss, the murderer sent Hongyan and asked her to tell lies to confuse Qin Jingan's sight.

In the past two days when Meng Yuyun's body was unhappy, Qin Jingan had already secretly sent people to squat in Chang'an, including the surrounding area, and the man in Hongyan's mouth was confirmed to be the Holy Son who had fled.

The Holy Son killed people, Qin Jingan laughed softly, this person who planted the sham still has some brains. There was a precedent in the beginning, and the Holy Son made Gu kill, but it is also a saying.

"Let's go meet the legendary Son."

The Holy Son temporarily lived in an inn in the downtown area of Chang'an, and Qin Jing'an and Meng Yuyun did not call other people, for fear of startling the snake.

From a distance, I saw that the inn was doing very good business, and a steady stream of people came in and out, many of whom were dressed strangely, and that was the Miaojiang people. The men sat at one table and the women at the same table.

The men drank wine and talked loudly, and the words were very fast, which Meng Yuyun couldn't understand. She guessed that it should be Miao Jiang's dialect, right?

And the men's ladies quietly bowed their heads to eat.

"Sell sugar gourds, fragrant and sweet sugar gourds!"

A young man selling sugar gourds shouted and walked past the two of them, maybe it was too crowded, the man staggered, and accidentally bumped into Qin Jing'an. The sugar gourd directly left sticky sugar stains on Qin Jing'an's red robe.

"Childe, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to! When the young man saw this, he trembled with fright, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief from his bosom and tried to help wipe it.

Qin Jingan waved his hand indifferently, but his eyes darkened.

The young man was overjoyed to see that such a young master of a family did not blame himself, for fear that Qin Jingan would change his mind. After all, this dress is worth a lot of money when you see it at a glance.

He bent down and said sorry a few times, and then took two strings of sugar gourds and wanted to hand them to Meng Yuyun, which could be regarded as a change of peace of mind for himself.

Meng Yuyun didn't accept it, and said with a smile that it was okay. The boy quickly turned around and left.

"Bend over!" Meng Yuyun's voice was deliberately low, wanting to make herself more like a boy.

"Huh?" Although he didn't know what Meng Yuyun was going to do, Qin Jingan still bent over obediently.

Meng Yuyun took out a handkerchief from her arms, carefully wiped the dozen or so hairs sticking to the sugar stains to the back of her head, and wiped the stains on her clothes vigorously. It's a pity that it wasn't wiped clean.

"When you go back, you can replace it!" Meng Yuyun thought of a gentle person like Su Yue, who should be very considerate, and her eyes couldn't help but sour.

Qin Jingan didn't speak, and looked at Meng Yuyun who looked like a little boy in a daze, with complicated emotions in his eyes.

Because someone's posture is too outstanding, it is not good for the two of them to want to be low-key. The first foot had just stepped into the inn, and when he took the next step, the eyes of those Miao Jiang people looked over.

In those eyes, there were some surprises, and some made Meng Yuyun feel uncomfortable. Especially when she saw her appearance clearly, the way she covered her mouth and whispered made her remember it deeply.

As soon as the shopkeeper saw the clothes of the two, he subconsciously thought that Qin Jingan was the young master, and Meng Yuyun, who was dressed a little roughly, was obviously a little girl, and hurriedly greeted him with a smile.

"Childe, are you going to play the top or live in the hotel?"

"Eat."

Simply throwing down the two words, Qin Jingan turned around, ignoring the embarrassed expression on the shopkeeper's face, and took Meng Yuyun's hand by himself, the girl's soft palm had a layer of newly grown thin calluses.

Meng Yuyun was just holding her hand, her soul was lost, and she followed Qin Jing'an in a daze, her eyes kept falling on the hands of the two of them.

His fingers are beautiful, his bones are distinct, and his skin is as natural as a newborn baby.

The shopkeeper was so embarrassed to pounce on him again, and gave a look to the little second brother, who understood it and followed, enthusiastically reading out the signature dishes in their store one by one.

Qin Jing'an found a place by the window and sat down, and he was not in a hurry to order, but waved his hand at the little second brother with some curiosity, signaling him to get closer to himself.

Where has the little second brother seen such a handsome man, his cheeks were red for a while, and he obediently came over.

"Little second brother, who are those?" Qin Jing'an's chin was raised towards the tables of Miao Jiangren.

The little second brother followed Qin Jing'an, and also looked over, and when he saw that it was those people, he smiled and said, "That's a Miaojiang person, I don't know why, there have been a lot of Miaojiang people these days, and the inn is full."

"Then have you ever seen a good-looking Miao Jiang man with a tear mole under his eye?" Meng Yuyun was a little excited.

The little second brother frowned and thought for a while, and then shook his head, "I haven't seen it, but we have one of the beautiful women with moles under their eyes." ”
