Chapter 35 Jining Temple

When Su Wanqiu heard this, her originally calm face suddenly changed, and she asked hurriedly, "Qingru, is this true?" Is it really such a rumor? ”

"Yes." Li Qingru nodded, "I also listened to what my second brother said, those masters died inexplicably, the government has been investigating, but they have not found the murderer, but they have found something else." ”

"What is it?"

"A throwing knife." Li Qingru blinked, "I heard that the flying knife is not only exquisitely designed, but also made of fine light iron, and it is smeared with poison, and the murderer who killed several masters is unlikely to be an ordinary assassin, but like a Deadpool only in a powerful family." ”

When Su Wanqiu heard this, Liu Ye's eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly: "So they suspect that the person who killed Mr. Xi, the academy teacher, was someone from the Hou Mansion?" ”

"Although I also think this is completely nonsense, but in the entire Linchuan, only the Hou Mansion has such financial resources, and such a valuable light iron is only used as a murder weapon for assassins." Li Qingru said worriedly, "Although there is no evidence that this matter is related to the Hou Mansion, there are already such rumors." ”

Su Wanqiu's heart sank slightly, shook her head, and said: "This matter has nothing to do with the Hou Mansion, but except for finding the murderer, the eldest brother has no way to prove his innocence." ”

"It's just a rumor now......"

"Words are terrible." Su Wanqiu sighed softly, and a deep coldness flashed in her eyes.

The fourth prince Ming Rong wanted to cover up the cause of death of the Pingzhou assassin, but the sixth prince Ming Yi wanted to investigate the matter, and the two of them coincidentally set their eyes on the Chengde Academy, but Ming Rong took the lead and killed the people in the academy.

Ming Rong's methods are ruthless and neat, just killing the unarmed master in Chengde Academy, and there will be no trace at all, but he left a murderous flying knife in the academy, is this just a simple accident? Or did Ming Rong deliberately leave it to spread suspicion?

Su Wanqiu closed her eyes and carefully recalled Mingrong's methods, even if she had never met in this life, but in the dark she was destined to be an enemy of Mingrong.

……

The carriage goes all the way to the Jining Temple in the north of Linchuan City, it is said that the incense of Jining Temple is effective, and the abbot is also a person of high morality, so there are many people who come to incense every day, and it is also the temple with the most incense in the whole Linchuan.

And when the carriage arrived at the foot of Jining Temple, Su Wanqiu and others got down from the carriage, looked up, and saw the bluestone mountain gate, the eaves were heavy, very solemn, and it made people feel solemn.

Li Qingru didn't come for the first time, so he took Su Wanqiu and Su Jin all the way to a main hall, and there were countless pilgrims coming and going in the hall, and there was an endless stream, and they should all come to offer incense and pray for blessings.

Su Wanqiu ordered the first rain to add some sesame oil money.

She looked up at the statue of the Great Pessimistic Guanyin Bodhisattva in front of her, which looked solemn, and the surrounding sandalwood rose, which made people involuntarily relax a little, and the hidden emotions in her heart gradually dissipated.

She thought in her heart, God has treated her well for a lifetime, how can she live up to it? In this life, I must live a splendid life......

"In late autumn, the carriage was bumpy all the way, and I was a little tired." Li Qingru said with some distress on her face.

Su Wanqiu turned her head to look at her and smiled gently: "You go to the guest room to rest for a while, my eldest brother and I will take a walk here, and then look for you later." ”

Li Qingru nodded: "Okay." ”

The little novice in the hall took Li Qingru to the guest room of Jining Temple to rest, while Su Wanqiu and Su Jin walked outside the hall.

Under your feet is a bluestone paved road, surrounded by vigorous pine trees, full of life and quiet atmosphere.

Thinking of what Li Qingru said in the carriage at that time, Su Wanqiu couldn't help but say worriedly: "Big brother, you must pay more attention these days. ”

Su Wanqiu had already said many similar things, Su Jin knew that she was by no means a worrying person, since she said this, it must be because of what happened, he couldn't help asking, "What happened?" ”

"Big brother ......" Su Wanqiu looked at Su Jin, with deep and complicated emotions in her eyes, "Do you remember that the sixth prince Mingyi once appeared in Linchuan before?" ”

Su Jin nodded, he and Mingyi had met in the Xiuzhu Bookstore that day, and he naturally had an impression.

"The six princes are here for a case this time, and the masters in the academy are all victims of this case, even the six princes have been hunted down and killed because of this, and the eldest brother is a student of the academy, it is hard to guarantee that some executioners will not do it to the eldest brother." Su Wanqiu said softly.

"The Six Princes are being hunted down?" Su Jin said with some surprise, "Who is so bold." ”

"Yes......" Su Wanqiu's eyes showed a little sadness, "Those people don't even care about the prince, even if the eldest brother has the guards of the Hou Mansion by his side, he must be more careful, there are many people in the academy, and those people can easily blend in." ”

Although there are a lot of pilgrims coming and going in Jining Temple, Jining Temple is very close to the prefect's yamen, and if something happens, the officials will also arrive quickly, which is naturally much safer than the academy.

The two walked while talking, all the way to a side hall, and suddenly a girl came out of the side hall with her head down, and suddenly hit Su Wanqiu.

Su Jin raised her hand to protect Su Wanqiu, and then turned her head to look at the girl.

The girl took a few steps back, raised her head and looked at Su Wanqiu, seeing that Su Wanqiu was gorgeous, knowing that Su Wanqiu was not an ordinary person, she suddenly felt a little uneasy in her heart, and said, "This young lady, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." ”

Su Wanqiu was not injured, so she shook her head: "It's okay, be careful next time." ”

"Thank you, Miss, for your forgiveness." The girl glanced at Su Wanqiu gratefully, and left quickly.

Su Wanqiu glanced at the girl's back with some surprise.

"What's wrong?" Su Jin asked.

"She walked so fast, as if she was in a hurry." Su Wanqiu recalled the girl's expression just now, and faintly felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't say it.

Su Jin didn't take it to heart, and only said: "She should have left in a hurry, so she bumped into you." ”

Su Wanqiu nodded.

In front of them was the side hall of the Kaiyuan Palace, and the two of them went all the way forward, not wanting to just raise their feet to enter, when they saw the young man who came out.

Dressed in a cyan robe, with a handsome and peerless face, it is the sixth prince Mingyi.

Ming Yi was a little surprised at first, and then a faint smile appeared on his face, and said, "It's really a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet the two of you here." ”

"Li Gongzi won't always appear here for no reason, right?" Seeing Mingyi, Su Wanqiu's heart jumped slightly, at this moment Mingyi should be busy investigating the case of Pingzhou Assassination, and he has no leisure to come to Jining Temple to offer incense, could it be that there are any clues in this Jining Temple?
