Chapter 21: I Saw the Serpent

A few days later, what Shen Yue didn't expect was that Shen Ningtang didn't come to trouble her, these days have been much cleaner, and what is missing in her ears is the complaints of the maids and slaves.

Although Qingjing is quiet, it makes Shen Yue inexplicably unable to let go.

"Could it be that they are secretly plotting some tricks against you?" Tsing Yi said with a pu fan.

Shen Yue frowned, maybe it was really ......

Who is Shen Ningtang, what kind of person is her mother, Shen Fu is not a vegetarian, Tang Muyao is determined to have the same hatred with them because of his beauty, these people have been offended by Shen Yue one after another, and they are actually swallowing their anger at this time? !

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

According to the way they framed her before, she could only believe that they really had the spare time to set up a game for her, and then watch her break the game gorgeously.

And then...... How about a game within a game this time?

"Miss, what are you thinking?" Tsing Yi saw that Shen Yue didn't speak for a long time, and thought she was asleep, but after a serious look, she found that the master had been staring at the vegetable garden in front of her for a long time, and there was a sharp light in his eyes, as if he had a bad idea in his heart.

"The weather is so good today, is it okay to go out and play?" Shen Yueyan.

As soon as these words came out, Tsing Yi knew that her young lady must be doing something in her heart, but she thought that today was the last day to take medicine......

"Don't do it, miss, Dr. Ren said that he would take medicine again after breakfast tomorrow to be cured, and there is still one last day, so you can bear with it again, lest Dr. Ren think that my decoction is not in place, and the medicine is wrong, which is not conducive to your recovery."

In his mind, Dr. Ren was standing alone at the door, completely lacking the old pedantic that he should have at his age, but he looked calm and domineering. Inside the courtyard is Tsing Yi, who is too busy to be busy, and Dr. Ren's eyes are deep, and his face, which can't see any expression, is covered with the abrasion marks of time.

When he was extremely impatient with the fire work and the amount of medicinal materials when Tsing Yi was boiling medicine, he sighed, and only then did he have a sense of old age, and a few not very neat steps walked towards her, and exclaimed,

"No, no, how many times have I said it, this Angelica Angelica is blood-invigorating, a little is enough, and it can't hinder the wound."

"Mrs. Shenyue, I will come at the hour and leave at the time of the unitary, and I will do my business during the day, just to see you recover." Ren Zhichun smiled and left.

When the hour comes, the time to go......

She waited for him to come, and she was still seeing him off......

"It's okay, it's okay, nothing will happen when you go out for a walk, not to mention that you can exercise while walking, maybe it will be of great help to your body's healing, if Dr. Ren comes, I'll take care of it for you." Shen Yue stood up, regardless of Tsing Yi's obstruction behind her, she just changed into a neat skirt and prepared to go out.

Tsing Yi had no choice but to go out.

"Miss, where do you want to go?" Tsing Yi asked, and followed Shen Yue quickly,

"I think Miss seems to have a goal, so she is in such a hurry."

"You're smart!" Shen Yue complimented, hooked her nose, and said with a smile,

"Do you remember Lord Zhou Heqing Zhou that day?"

Tsing Yi panicked, and he didn't dare to speak for a long time, and it took a long time to muster up the courage to ask,

"Miss, do you still blame me?"

When Shen Yue heard this, she stopped and turned to look at Tsing Yi, seeing her innocent look, where did Shen Yue still have hatred.

The most powerful thing about this little girl is that she has a pitiful face.

At least it made her feel pity.

"Blame you!" Shen Yue said,

"What can be done? Why don't you do it for me? ”

"That's nature." Tsing Yi replied immediately.

"Hmm." Shen Yueyan, seeing her resolute and death-defying expression, unconsciously made her chuckle.

Shen Yue didn't take a few steps, then looked up at the red gate in front of him, rolled his eyes to look at Tsing Yi and said:

"It's here, let's go."

Tsing Yi nodded, stepped forward and knocked on the door, but no one answered, knocked a few more times, and there was still no response for a long time.

Tsing Yi didn't give up, he was still knocking on the door, his ears attached to the door to eavesdrop on the movement inside.

Shen Yue narrowed her eyes, and she was very puzzled in her heart.

What about people?

"Don't knock." Behind him came a white-bearded old man holding a flag of divination, and said as he walked,

"This family has been closed for several days, no one has come, I see that this house is very yin, I am afraid that someone has just died, and the soul is wronged and refuses to leave, so I am pestering the family to live and die and are unwilling to go, look at this posture, I am afraid that I asked the mage to do it for several days, damn it, why didn't I take this job!"

Won't open the door?

"I guess this way, the corpse is still a demon inside, that Taoist priest can't do it, I'm just wandering around, waiting for them to come and beg me, if I want me to say, I should dig out Zhou Xiaogongzi and cast a spell, otherwise what the hell is it for?!"

The body has been buried?

"Wait." Shen Yue stopped the fortune teller.

The gentleman seemed to have known that he was going to be stopped, and he turned around and came to Shen Yue with a crisp turn.

"Want to inquire about the whereabouts of the body?" The gentleman stepped forward.

"How do you know?" Shen Yue was puzzled.

"Twenty taels." The old fortune teller said to her with a wicked smile.

"Twenty taels?!" Tsing Yi was shocked and shouted, "Why don't you go and grab it?" ”

"Forget it." Shen Yue said, "Give him twenty taels." ”

When Tsing Yi heard Shen Yue's order, he had no choice but to take out the money from the sleeve of his clothes and hand it to the old man for twenty taels of silver.

The fortune teller weighed his weight and hurriedly put it in his pocket.

"Others don't know, but I know that Zhou Hu's body has been buried a long time ago, and the body was buried in the back mountain of the suburbs, and Zhou Fu quietly came out of the funeral in the middle of the night, no one was alarmed, don't you say it's strange?"

"Back Mountain?" Shen Yue said, turned to look at Tsing Yi and said, "Go." ”

As he was riding out of the city, a clear man's voice suddenly appeared behind him.

"What a coincidence, walking with you."

Shen Yue turned around, only to see the handsome and charming Lan Che also riding a horse to follow, dressed in black and red robes, which made his evil charm even more indispensable.

On top of that, it's also very similar to her outfit.

It's a couple outfit again......

"Do you know where we're going?" Shen Yue questioned.

"Yes." Lan Che smiled charmingly sideways, got up and got out of the horse, came to Shen Yue's horse, hugged Shen Yue with both hands, and said,

"My horse is frightened, it's dangerous, I can't ride it anymore......"

……

"You ......," Shen Yue shouted.

"How about galloping?" Lan Che leaned into his ear and said.

"What?!" Before Shen Yue's second half of the sentence could be spoken, the horse had already galloped, Lan Che behind him laughed, hearty and casual, Shen Yue was restless, and the Tsing Yi behind him didn't know what to do.

Soon, Shen Yue and Lan Che had come to a cemetery, and the names were engraved on the stone tablet.

From a distance, I saw that in front of the stone tomb on that side, there was a woman burning paper there, looking panicked, with words in her mouth, looking around as she spoke, as if she was wary of whether there was anyone around.

Shen Yue glanced at Lan Che, Lan Che happened to be looking at her as well, the two nodded, and then stepped forward in a few steps and came to the woman quietly.

"Who?" The woman exclaimed, and when she saw the two people who suddenly appeared behind her, she was panicked and at a loss.

"Chu Yan? Qinglou woman. Lan Che opened his lips leisurely.

"You...... How do you know? Chu Yan looked panicked.

Be! How does he know.

"Zhou Hu prefers to mess with flowers and grass outside, you must know him, right?"

"I don't know what it matters to you." The woman panicked and wanted to leave.

"If you don't tell me what you know, I'll have to let you explain it in court." Lan Che said lightly.

The woman was so startled that she stopped.

"What do you want to know?" The woman collapsed on the ground, she said.

"Why did you come to worship Zhou Hu?" Lan Che asked.

"I hurt him!"

The woman sobbed in a low voice, and Shen Yue's heart tightened.

"I am Chu Yan of Liu Fangge, Zhou Gongzi is my frequent visitor, that day a son gave me a bamboo basket, let me put it in the house, and gave me a thousand taels of silver to redeem my body and give me a thousand taels of silver, to ensure that I have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of my life, for my mother who has been sick for many years, I did so, but I didn't expect that later, I heard the news of Zhou Hu's tragic death."

"What about the bamboo basket? What's in the basket? ”

"I don't know." Chu Yan cried and said with a choked voice.

"The bamboo basket is very heavy, at first I didn't know what was in the bamboo basket, I opened it and found that it was full of pastries, I naturally had doubts about such a big thing, so I tried it with a silver needle, and the pastries were not poisonous."

Chu Yan raised her head and said sadly,

"I put the pastry in the house because it wasn't poisonous, and I don't blame me, I didn't kill him."

is an innocent person, just being used to have such a guilty heart, it must be very good for Zhou Hu.

Pastries are not poisonous......

Shen Yue wondered, "It's good to use only paper for things like pastries, why use bamboo baskets?" ”

"I don't know, I've told you everything I know, and I don't know anything else, I'm not a murderer."

"Who gave you the pastry? Do you remember what he looked like? ”

"It was sent by the shop that sold pastries, and it was the little guy in the Liufang Pavilion who sent me in." Chu Yan said.

"What about the people who gave you money and ransomed you?" Shen Yue asked.

Chu Yan took a breath and said,

"I didn't see him until I was done, he didn't show his face, he just stood behind the screen, said thank me, and then gave me money, and I checked the pastries later, and the rest was really nothing."

Shen Yue nodded and turned his head to look at Lan Che, but he sneered calmly, as if he was watching a joke.

Did he already know?

"I really don't know anything, believe it or not, that's the truth."

"Chu Yan?" Shen Yue squatted down, raised her hand to hook the woman's chin, and raised her eyes,

"Tell me, how many pastries are in the bamboo basket?"

"I don't know, how can I take them out and count them one by one?"

"Did Zhou Hu eat pastries?"

"This ...... I don't know, as soon as Zhou Gongzi left, the pastry was gone. ”

"Tell me, is there anything else in it besides the pastry?"

"......" The woman was silent, looked at Lan Che and then at Shen Yue, and said indifferently, "It's a snake." ”

"I saw the snake."
