Chapter 254: Mysterious Mother and Daughter

As set by Ran Yan, the restoration of the face was completed in the afternoon of the next day, because there was no condition to paint and color, Ran Yan could only give up and draw the face of the deceased before his death according to the restored appearance.

It was snowing heavily outside, Ran Yan was lying on a few, a young lady of about twenty years old jumped on the paper under her pen, willow eyebrows and apricot eyes, the roundness of life, quite a feeling of small jasper, but combed a luxurious half-turned bun, which looked a little out of harmony.

Xiao Song stood beside her, and when she saw her put down the pen, she put her attention on the paper, and at a glance, she couldn't help but be a little surprised, "This lady ......"

"What's wrong?" Ran Yan rarely saw him naturally show this kind of expression, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Have you seen her?" ”

Xiao Song slowed down and said, "No, when I arrested Dou Chengfeng, I found that he was living in the house of a lady, and the woman was very similar to the person you painted, at least six points alike, but there was a difference in age." ”

"Could it be sisters?" Ran Yan said.

Xiao Song shook his head, "I guess it's a mother and daughter." The lady is thirty-eight, and her charm is still there, and there is a red mole in the corner of her eye. And she herself admitted that she had an affair with Dou Chengfeng. ”

"Then her daughter ......" Ran Yan frowned, her mother had an affair with Dou Chengfeng, but her daughter went on an outing outside the city with him, what does this mean? What kind of relationship does Dou Chengfeng have with this mother and daughter?

Xiao Song obviously thought the same way, "This woman is about twenty years old, and under normal circumstances, she would have married and had children, if she has a husband's family, she should not be reported to the official for so long, and her mother did not say a word about her disappearance, which is really strange." ”

The news of the other two people is like a stone in the sea, and their lives are still uncertain, and there are no clues. Xiao Song had already ordered someone to search for all the suspected clues, even every place they might go to, but they didn't find anything. However, the good news is that Dou Chengfeng finally regained consciousness, and under Xiao Song's repeated interrogation, he confessed the identity of another person.

"According to Dou Chengfeng, he only knows that another Lang Jun is called Yu Lang, it is said that he was born very handsome, a little fat, and he is a friend of He Yan, but I sent someone to investigate, but no one who is familiar with He Yan knows a person named Yu Lang." Xiao Song paused for a moment and said, "I suspect that he is the son of Xiao Qilou, and he has already sent someone to investigate." ”

The identities of the rest of the people are already clear, they are He Yan, a scholar from the Hanmen, nineteen years old, without merit, the son of the Dou family, Dou Chengfeng, the character Yuan Rong, and a Yulang who only knows his name.

Xiao Song's suspicions are not unreasonable, although Chang'an City is large, it has basically counted household registrations, even the Ji Pavilion and the Small Pavilion, and it is only a matter of time before Yulang's identity is found.

"He Yan and Yu Lang are friends, is it possible that the two of them teamed up to kill someone and abscond?" Ran Yan asked as she made the final adjustments to the portrait.

Xiao Song looked at her white and slender neck, like a warm jade against the backdrop of black hair, and an inexplicable sense of satisfaction was born in his heart, he was emotional at this time, but he didn't want to destroy this peaceful and beautiful atmosphere, he only stared at her quietly.

Ran Yan put down his pen, and seeing that he hadn't answered for a long time, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at him, "What are you smiling at?" ”

Xiao Song has always been calm and capable, and it is the first time he has shown such an expression. was caught, he only coughed dryly, and answered her question indifferently, "What you said is also very likely, because Dou Chengfeng said that he drank a lot of wine, smoked A Furong, and was delirious, and when he woke up, he found himself unconscious in the forest, he thought that his companion was deliberately playing him, so he walked back to the city, and later heard about this case, for fear of involving himself, so he hid in Xianghao's house." ”

This statement is full of doubts. Since it's so simple, what does he have to hide? Hiding for a while and hiding for a lifetime? He took his old good-looking daughter out of the city to play, and when he came back, he lost someone, and the woman didn't ask whether her daughter was alive or dead, and helped protect him?

There must be more to the truth than that......

Xiao Song and Ran Yan both thought so. There are many possibilities in mind, but none of them have a clue to prove. You can only go to verify and exclude them one by one.

"What's the situation on the Wenxi County Lord's side?" Ran Yan is very concerned about this woman who has five or six points of resemblance to her appearance and has experienced misery, especially the possibility that she has a split personality, which makes Ran Yan's curiosity even more serious.

"The county lord of Wenxi went out in disguise that day, and he went to a very small temple in the east of the city, but he just asked for a signature." Xiao Song picked up the portraits on the table, looked at it and looked at it, and did not hesitate to praise, "This craft of yours is really amazing, I'm afraid you are the first person in the Tang Dynasty."

Praise can be very chic, but Xiao Song also has doubts in his heart, how can a clan lady like to fiddle with the dead? How can you be proficient in this?

It can be said that most of the women in Datang are very individual, there is a kind of tenacity and strength in their bones, and there is no shortage of women who do not let their eyebrows go, but none of them are like Ran Yan, who does not change their faces when they see dead people, as if they were born to do this business.

Although Xiao Song felt that they needed to be honest with each other, there were still long days to come, and he was not in a hurry.

Ran Yan's thoughts were still on the county lord Wenxi, she thought about it for a long time before she said, "Go out and ask for a sign when the limelight is so tight?" ”

This is nothing to put on others, but Wenxi County Lord has a different identity, and he is extremely cautious...... Besides, she just begged for a signature, and she went openly, and no one stopped her.

"I want to contact the county lord Wenxi a few more times, don't you know if it's convenient?" Ran Yan asked.

Xiao Song saw her looking forward to it, and said with a smile, "It's not inconvenient, just try to be careful when you go." ”

This matter can be big or small, and no one will stare at Chai Mansion all day long, but if it is discovered by someone with a heart, it will inevitably be used to make a fuss.

"Thank you." How could Ran Yan not hear the meaning of his words, but the happiest thing was his support.

Xiao Song saw her smiling, and there was a sense of accomplishment in his heart that he had never felt before. He climbed to the high position of this four-grade waiter step by step, every step was within his expectations, and he was also very happy every time he was promoted, it was a kind of joy that was rewarded for his efforts, but this moment was different.

He stretched out his hand and scratched her petite and straight nose, and deliberately poured cold water on it, "Don't be happy too early, I received the news that the old lady will be there tomorrow afternoon, she is an impatient, if she wants to see you, she may run to the Ran Mansion the day after tomorrow." ”

Ran Yan glared at him, "Spoiled scenery." ”

Xiao Song got up, dropped a kiss on her forehead, and rolled up the scroll that had already dried, "I'll go to the official office, and I'll see you off when I come back." ”

"It's boring for me to stay, you don't have to send me, I'll just go back by myself." Ran Yan soaked in his house all day long mainly to help him a little, and after the things to be done were done, she didn't want to stay here all the time.

"There's a room next to my study, I've prepared some things, you can go and see before you go." Xiao Song packed the scroll in a special bamboo tube. He's been very busy lately, and it's because he's been injured and he's coming back to get a portrait of his restored appearance, so he's stealing a moment of leisure, otherwise he'd like to be with her too.

"Okay, you go get busy first." Ran Yan responded.

Xiao Song took the bamboo tube containing the scroll and left in a hurry.

Ran Yan and Wan Lu tidied up the things in the house a little, and then went to the study.

There is a small servant under the study, who is specially in charge of the study, he got Xiao Song's explanation, so Ran Yan visited at will, and he only waited on the side.

This pavilion is not small, there is only a huge library on the first floor, Ran Yan turned around in it, and roughly estimated, there must be at least five or six thousand books, all kinds of books, mostly miscellaneous records, maps, local chronicles, medicine, Taoism, the art of war and other aspects of knowledge, and even some books and books, and the Confucian classics of the Eight Classics only account for a small part.

From this collection, it can also be seen that Xiao Song's character is extensive, not old-fashioned, and not too influenced by Confucianism.

After visiting the library, Ran Yan went up to the second floor.

There are four rooms on the second floor, and Xiao Song's study full of case files is in the second room in front of the staircase, which is where he works, Ran Yan didn't plan to go in privately, so he went directly to the next room.

Before he could open the door, Ran Yan smelled a strong medicinal fragrance.

The little girl opened the door, and there were eight screens at the front entrance, and the translucent silk gauze face made the room look not stuffy, but there were red plums embroidered on it, which made her both funny and annoyed, and she seemed to be able to see Xiao Song teasing and squeezing her in front of her.

Isn't it just that you didn't write a poem Ran Yan snorted lightly, bypassed the screen, everything in the room came into view, and Ran Yan looked around in surprise.

This room is more than twice as large as Xiao Song's "office room", and the four walls are lined with the kind of cabinets used for pharmacies, and each small drawer has the name of the medicine marked on it, and the wood looks new, as if it has only been done for a long time. There was a long table by the window, on which was placed a set of scalpels that were exactly the same as the ones she had used in Liu Pinrang, and even better material.

Ran Yan couldn't help but pick it up one by one, and found that what was more sophisticated than the one made by Liu Pinrang was not in the material, but that the blade should be thin and just right, and the blade should be thick, and the blade should be very thick.

Xiao Wu didn't know what these knives of different sizes and shapes were used for, and thought that they were cooking utensils with a lot of tricks, but seeing that Ran Yan was very happy, he also explained diligently, "These utensils were specially made by Lang Jun to find someone, and he also asked Dr. Liu for advice many times." And these medicinal materials are also very good, this year's fresh goods. ”

The little guy said, and felt a little wrong in his heart, this is clearly a pharmacy, what are the cooking utensils doing in the pharmacy? However, it is reasonable to think that Lang Jun may be planning to surprise Ran Niangzi together.

The doubts in his heart flashed, and Xiao Wuxin felt that it was not easy for his own Langjun to marry a daughter-in-law, and he kept saying all the good things in front of Ran Yan, saying that Xiao Song had put a lot of effort into it, and he had made it all by himself.

"There are also medical books collected by Lang Jun here." The servant took out some nanmu boxes from the lattice under the medicine cabinet, "These are the things that many doctors dream of. ”
