Seeing Song Ran, Zhou Huitong was pleasantly surprised, stepped forward and took her hand, looking left and right: "Shaowei, I know it's you, I haven't seen you for a few years, you have grown a lot taller." ”

Song Ran also smiled and groaned: "You too, you are thinner than before." ”

Zhou Huitong looked at her tightly, and a thousand words turned into a speechless.

Before the gate was not a place to catch up, Song Ran took the lead in coming out of the joy of reuniting old friends and introduced her to the Wen family beside her. After greeting each other, Zhou Huitong hurriedly welcomed them into the house. Along the way, she held Song Ran's hand and didn't let go for a moment.

After entering the Zhou Mansion, she ordered someone to take Wen to the living room to wait first, and she and Song Ran entered the boudoir.

In Yaozhou, Zhou Mo's two families are close to each other, Zhou Guangtong and Song Ran's grandfather are old friends, and they come and go frequently. When the Zhou family moved south, Song Ran fell ill and didn't have time to say goodbye, which has always been a regret in her heart.

As soon as Zhou Huitong closed the door, he asked impatiently: "Shaowei, I received a letter from my father a few days ago, knowing that you left the Mo family and went to Ling'an. But how did you come to Hangzhou Mansion and still be with Yang Chengwan's wife? Tell me about it. ”

When he saw Zhou Guangtong, Song Ran was still worried about his relationship with the Mo family and his seniority, so he hid some words and didn't mention them, but now facing Hui Niang, he opened the chatterbox.

She picked up the important things after she arrived in Ling'an and told her about them, and Zhou Huitong's brows tightened more and more as she listened.

When talking about the reason for coming to Hangzhou Mansion, Song Ran slightly concealed it, and only said: "Shen Hanxi suspected that I leaked the news, which caused Liu Ming to be killed first, so he asked me to come here with He Lanjue to investigate this case." Speaking of this, he couldn't wait to ask, "I heard Zhou Shibo say that Shaoyuan has lived here for a few days, but is it true?" ”

Zhou Huitong was still digesting her words, and she couldn't get back to her senses, listening to her question, she slowly poured a cup of tea, and said, "Shaoyuan has been here, but he only stayed for a few days, and then he left again." A helpless smile appeared at the corner of his lips, "You also know his temperament, I really can't keep him in this house, and I don't dare to keep him." Seeing Song Ran's uneasy expression, he pushed the teacup in front of her and comforted her softly, "Don't worry, Shang Xiang is following, my father has also sent a letter to Hou Ye, with Shaoyuan's temperament, he will not let himself suffer." ”

Song Ran smiled bitterly: "He has always been the only one who makes others suffer, how could he wronged himself." His expression eased a little and he said, "Don't mention him." I'm here today for your help. ”

Zhou Huitong also thought about it: "Is it for this Wen family?" ”

Song Ran nodded: "This Yang Chengwan is not a good person, Sister Wen was also forcibly married to him by her father to fill the house, and Yang Chengwan is ......" Wen said those words to her, she really couldn't open her mouth, only said, "He is cruel, when Sister Wen was pregnant for three months, just because of the discord between him and his colleagues, he was unhappy, so he forced Sister Wen to have sex with him, not to mention the miscarriage, and almost lost her life." I heard that his former wife was also tortured to death by him. ”

Hearing these words, Zhou Huitong clenched his fists and slammed it on the table: "How can this be true!" But because of this, he injured his shoulder, and immediately gasped in pain.

Only then did Song Ran notice her injury: "Huiniang, what's wrong with you?" ”

She gritted her teeth and said, "It's okay, it's still your business, Shaowei, you continue." ”

Song Ran sorted out his emotions and said, "I sympathize with Sister Wen's plight and want to rescue her from this fire pit." Shicai came up with an idea, but ...... Need to be wronged. ”

After listening to her finish her idea, Zhou Huitong felt that it was not a difficult matter, and immediately said: "This matter is on me." ”

The two came to the living room, as soon as Wen saw her, he got up and saluted, Zhou Huitong stepped forward quickly, supported her, and said: "Sister Wen doesn't have to be polite, she is a little talented, oh, it's Miss Song, and she has already told me what happened to my sister." Don't hide it from my sister, when my father first arrived in office, this surnamed Yang beat my idea, but unfortunately my father didn't look down on him, if I took the initiative to show favor to him, he would definitely seize this opportunity. ”

Wen looked at her, a little speechless, and said with emotion for a long time: "What Miss Song said is really good, Miss Zhou is really a warm-hearted person." How can I ......?"

Zhou Huitong was very cheerful and smiled at her: "Everyone is a woman, so don't say these polite words." With that, he stepped back, invited them to take a seat, and simply summed up how to deal with Yang Chengwan.

It wasn't until it was dark that Zhou Huitong reluctantly sent them into the carriage, and when the carriage was far away, she suddenly beat her hands. Why did you forget to tell Shaowei about today's arrest by the Imperial Guard? Shaowei has always been smart, maybe he can come up with something famous......

Hangzhou Mansion, Imperial Health Department.

A brocade-clothed rider was revealing the details of the Zhou family's murder case to Shen Hanxi.

Liu Mingxian went to the Zhou Mansion with a swagger with a few flag schools under the banner of searching for Qin criminals that day, and had a fierce conflict with Zhou Zicheng, beating the other party to the point of bleeding. On the same day, when he was eating in a restaurant with a few others, he threatened to kill Zhou Zicheng with the strength of wine. ”

That night, the Zhou family was wiped out. This case was clear and clear, and there was an eyewitness Chen Cripple, so the county only tried it hastily, and then closed the case and reported it to the Yamen, the envoy of the procuratorate. ”

"If anything suspicious......," the shadow guard continued, "the case is too clear, the motive for the killing, the eyewitnesses, all impeccable. Also, as soon as the adult came, Chen Cripple was killed, which made people suspect that there were other articles in it. ”

Shen Hanxi's face did not change: "Isn't this clear enough?" Someone wanted to make a big deal about it, so they picked Liu Ming to go under the knife first. The person they picked is really good, firstly, he has served beside this official, and secondly, he is a seamed egg himself, which is more convenient for them to buckle this basin. ”

The shadow guard nodded yes, and couldn't help but remind him, "My lord, Lord Long is still kneeling outside." ”

Shen Hanxi seemed to think of him at this time, and said lazily: "Let him in." ”

As soon as Long Pan came in, he knelt down again: "My lord, it's all because of the poor deployment of the humble position, so that the villain has a chance to take advantage of it, please punish the adult!" ”

What he asked for was the crime of being assassinated at the ferry port of Suzhou Mansion, and Shen Hanxi didn't let him get up, and said leisurely: "Lord Long, this is not the first time that this kind of thing has happened. ”

Long Pan's body shook, and he didn't dare to raise his head: "The lowly position is also thinking, this time the adult traveled, including the lowly position, only a few people knew, but those assassins set up an ambush on the way early, someone must have leaked the news." However, the lowly position can guarantee that the attendants accompanying this time, including the lowly position, are loyal to the adults, and it cannot be the work of the internal thief! ”

Shen Hanxi could hear his voice. The hand unconsciously touched his thumb, and realized that he was not wearing the jade wrench he often wears, so he turned to put the hand behind his back and walked to the man who was half-kneeling on the ground: "On that day, Xiao Yanguan's place was so secret, wasn't he also robbed." Lord Long, that time, wasn't it the work of the thief? ”

Long Pan's body shook again, although he knew that he was arrogant, he still gritted his teeth and said: "It's not that I suspect Miss Song, it's just that her identity is really suspicious." As the saying goes, lust makes you dizzy, and adults must not fall for her! ”

He suffered from women when he was young, especially gentle and obedient women, who smiled like flowers on the surface, and behind his back he might not want to stab you. He still remembers how the scar on his face came about.

Shen Hanxi's tone was even more casual than Shicai: "Her identity, the official knows it, and I don't need you to care about it." You are only responsible for finding out the thieves in the Imperial Guard, and the rest is up to the official. ”

Long Pan listened to his confident tone, and it was not easy to continue, so he reluctantly said, "Yes." ”

Shen Hanxi glanced at him: "Get up." ”

Long Pan got up, after all, he was still uneasy, and couldn't help but propose again: "If the adult really likes that Song girl, it is better to simply ask her." If she becomes an adult, she can let go of half of her humble position. Receiving his cold eyes, he swallowed his saliva silently and changed the subject, "My lord, when the humble position comes, ......"

He told the matter of Liuniang, and Shen Hanxi was really interested: "Where is the Liuniang people?" ”

"It's out there. Wind Thirteen had just sent her. ”

Shen Hanxi sat down on the soft couch and picked up the teacup casually: "Bring it in." ”

Liu Niang cowered and followed behind a brocade lang, and halfway through, she couldn't help but look back at the mute. Although he was dressed ordinarily and did not have a striking appearance, his eyes were gentle and reassuring. After glancing at him, she made up her mind a little and followed the brocade into the room.

There were two people in the room, the scarred man who had saved her was standing, and the other was sitting idly on the soft floor, spotless white robe, with a silver mask pressed on his face.

You don't need to think about it to know which of these two is the greater.

"You're Liuniang?" The man sitting on the couch spoke, his voice unexpectedly young, a good voice that was cold and beautiful.

She nodded, not knowing whether she should kneel, but listened to the man with the scar on his face say: "If the adult asks you anything, you will answer truthfully, and you must not hide it." ”

She nodded again and plucked up her courage to say, "Liuniang knows what the adults want to ask." ”

The white-robed man said: "That saves the official's tongue." Speak, listen. ”

She hung her head, and her immature voice trembled a little: "Liuniang was originally a rough girl in Piaoxianglou, a month ago, someone went to Piaoxianglou, fell in love with Liuniang, and forced Liuniang to pick up guests, Liuniang was unwilling to follow him, was beaten badly, and almost died." ”

As if remembering the scene of that day again, when he said this, his small body shrank and shrank. After a long pause, he continued: "Liuniang was in a coma for a few days, and after waking up, the eldest brother stayed by Liuniang's bedside, saying that he must redeem himself for Liuniang, but before that day, the man came again. This time, he gave Liuniang to ......"

She remembered the nightmare of that day, closed her eyes, and said with difficulty: "Ruined Liuniang."
