Chapter VI

Ever since I learned that Ju'er didn't stumble and died, I had a lot of questions in my heart, recalling the bits and pieces of the past, but I couldn't think of a clue, so I had to run to ask Azu.

At this time, it was noon, Azu was eating with a bowl of noodles, and when he saw me coming, he hurriedly put down the bowl and called me, "Miss Su, you are here."

Straight to the point, I asked him directly, "Azu, what do you think of what you told me about Ju'er the day before yesterday."

From Azu's mouth, I learned that he had secretly examined Ju'er's body and found that there were bump marks on the back of his head, a handful of hair behind his ears was torn off, and there were scratches on his neck during the fight.

As soon as I heard this, I felt that this matter was getting more and more strange, and I was more certain that someone had killed my Ju'er, as Azu said.

At this moment, no matter how sad and indignant I feel in my heart, I must find out what happened, bring the murderer to justice, and give justice to my Ju'er.

I told Azu not to startle the snake for the time being, to observe secretly, and to come slowly step by step.

In order not to interfere with Azu's shift, I quickly left and returned to the courtyard.

Bai Xiaoqiu was sitting on the stool in my room without saying a word, with freshly brewed tea on the table, holding an emerald ring jade teacup in his hand, and drinking it one by one.

I didn't have a good anger and soured him, "How come Twelve Young have time to come to me today, aren't you afraid that the good wife in the family will blame you, or are you tired of her so quickly, and you want to find a fresh one, but it's a pity that you came to the wrong place." Go out and turn right, go straight to the second intersection, there are stunning women in Lichun Pavilion, you can choose, you can choose, you are satisfied".

Bai Xiaoqiu put down the teacup in his hand and looked at me fixedly, "You are so decadent, you can say such words."

I said twice, "I've seen a lot, so it's not strange."

Bai Xiaoqiu was so angry that I clenched her fists, and swept her arm to knock over the teacup on the table to the ground, causing a crunchy sound.

Fortunately, the cup was thick and not broken, I reached out to pick it up, and I was not angry and said lightly, "Twelve young people want to go far away, I am not suitable here."

That Bai Xiaoqiu dragged my arm and stared at me with murderous eyes, "Where did you go just now?"

At this time, I am incompatible with him, he has a wife in his arms all day long, and I have a lot of things to do, and the well water does not interfere with the river water. It really didn't make sense for him to burst into my house today and ask me where I was.

I shook off his hand, and my face was full of bright smiles, "Twelve young people are really idle, you are not in the mansion with your wife, so you came to my courtyard to question a person who has nothing to do with you, even if I die at this moment, I have nothing to do with you." When I finished, I stretched out my hand and made a gesture of please.

He got up from the stool with a thud and lifted his heels to the ground. He gave me a vicious look, and I stared at him viciously.

Before leaving, he said to me, "Ju'er's matter, this is the end, you must not interfere."

I stood behind me, and my tone was very firm, "Ju'er's matter, I'm in charge, Twelve Young wants to protect himself, I can understand, don't care, don't ask, don't listen, you just don't know anything."

Bai Xiaoqiu's actions made me feel very suspicious, but I couldn't say why, maybe it was really for my sake, worried about me, or there was an ulterior secret hidden in it, and I had a headache when I thought about it.

Lying on the chaise longue, he planned to rest for a while, and told Ai'er not to see anyone who came. Ai'er said yes, sir, and went out with the door.

With something in his heart, he woke up after squinting for a while, and rearranged the relationship between the characters in the room again, locked a few target characters, and was very happy in his heart, picked up his clothes and put them on his body, and trotted all the way to the gate.

Seeing that Azu was talking to a few guards, there were people coming and going in the house from time to time, and when I found that they were looking at me, I quickly twisted my head to the side, pulled the small sapling next to me and pinched it in my hand and fiddled with it left and right.

Since I was frustrated in love, the people in Baifu have been pointing behind my back, making irresponsible remarks, seeing that I am extremely polite on the surface, and I don't know how to scold me behind my back, it doesn't matter, I think about it, and I have figured it out, and after I find out about Ju'er, I will go to Yin Ziran and ask him to take me away and go back to Jizhou together.

Azu looked at me after speaking, I glanced at him, and the two of them found a secluded corner one after the other.

I shoved the pre-written note into Azu's hand and asked him to follow the list on the paper one by one.

Azu and I were both bright and dark, and after a few days of observation, we didn't find anything abnormal.

Chu Lianwei is still sticking to Bai Xiaoqiu every day, drinking tea and enjoying flowers, shopping in the market, the two of them are talking, laughing, flirting, and scolding, if there is no one around, it is as if they are the only ones left in this world.

Zhao Yinlan dresses up every day, looking for various opportunities to get close to Bai Zhanqi, sometimes even if he is isolated far away, he has to run over and chatter "Husband has worked hard".

Fourth Miss Bai Qingrui was busy bullying her naughty little uncle.

The rest of the people in the house also performed their own duties, and they did what they had to do.

After more than ten days like this, just when I was frustrated and slack, I suddenly discovered a very strange thing.

That day, when I came out of Bai Yanleng's house and passed by a long corridor, I met Zhao Yinlan's maidservant.

As soon as the servant girl saw me, she called me Mr. Su inarticulately. I smiled at the maidservant, so frightened that she took a few steps back, looked panicked, and finally ran away, I chased after her, and she ran hard in front until she ran to Zhao Yinlan's yard.

I was about to rush in when I heard Bai Zhanqi's laughter coming from inside. After a pause, it is not a rule to break into the bedroom of the general's concubine without a legitimate reason.

Inevitably, I can only make long-term plans, hold my ground first, and continue to follow in private.

Soon I told Azu about this, Azu sighed, replied very casually, and did not feel the slightest surprise on his face, so he asked, "Azu, tell me honestly, did you notice something a long time ago, but didn't tell me, don't want me to know."

Azu said hesitantly, "Where did Miss Su say?"

I patted Azu on the shoulder, "Okay, tomorrow night, let's catch the murderer together."
