Chapter XII

The coquettish appearance fell in Sheng Li's eyes, thinking that he knew how to restrain himself, but who knew that Wen Yuecheng directly raised his foot and kicked back, but scared Sheng Li on the spot.

And Wen Yuecheng seemed to have suddenly found something funny, he saw that Sheng Li didn't kick back, so he kept harassing the other side with his feet, and he didn't forget to joke in his mouth: "Sister Ji doesn't know this, right?" ”

"He ......" Wen Yuecheng, who suddenly kicked the empty mouth, paused, and continued to introduce: "He is a grand gift, the object of affection of many daughters in Zhaofeng County. ”

Although Ji Liu pounced on the roast chicken, it didn't mean that she didn't feel at all when her leg was kicked.

This kick was kicked by Sheng Li, because he was kicked by Wen Yuecheng many times, he couldn't bear it, raised his foot and saluted, who would have forgotten that there was a willow on the side.

His feet touched a pair of slender calves, which felt completely different from kicking Wen Yuecheng, especially when he saw Ji Liu's stunned eyes, the roots of his ears gradually turned red, the area became larger and larger, and his whole face under the mask turned red.

"Lord Wen, the folk girl and Sheng Daren have had a relationship before," Ji Liu couldn't hold back the weirdness and embarrassment in her heart, she had only known Sheng Li for two days, but every time the friction occurred, the two of them were red-faced, she didn't dare to look at Sheng Li, so she could only divert the topic from Wen Yuecheng: "Can we have dinner?" ”

"Oh, look at my brain," Wen Yuecheng seemed to remember at this time, and now it's time to eat: "This dish is cold, come on, bring the meat dish down and heat it up." ”

Then he moved the vegetables on the table to Ji Liu, and said intimately: "Sister Ji has just been drenched in the rain and has been punished with a cane, so it is better to use some vegetarian food, and don't want typhoid fever to reach the stomach." ”

Ji Liu looked at the expression on that face I am good for you, you should thank me, and gritted a mouthful of silver teeth, and barely held back the feeling of wanting to smash the chopsticks on Wen Yuecheng's face.

Just as she was snorting more and adjusting her mood, Wen Yuecheng turned her head and said to Sheng Li with a smile: "Xiao Lizi, this official heard that the drum of grievances in Zhaofeng County has not sounded in the past ten years, hey! You know what?! Less than half a year after Lord Ben took office, the old drum began to work! ”

The more Sheng Li listened to him, the tighter his voice became, and he didn't understand anything, this guy was clearly taking revenge on Ji Liu.

Jingguo has a saying about the sound of the drum, where the drum sounds, the news will be transmitted to the ears of the head, which will directly affect the annual rating.

And the rating, you may not be promoted, but you can definitely make a fortune.

Ji Liu's move directly helped Wen Yuecheng finalize next year's Yulu in advance. Wen Yuecheng is not like Sheng Li, he is a lord with a docile personality, on the contrary, he can definitely be regarded as a retribution.

Seeing this, Sheng Li was ashamed in his heart, he secretly glanced at Ji Liu, who was gritting his teeth and looking at Wen Yuecheng, puffing out like a goldfish that surfaced on rainy weather and spit bubbles, it was cute, he suddenly felt that Wen Yuecheng was also very good like this, and then laughed at his bad taste, picked up the wooden chopsticks to turn the topic back on track, and said: "Hurry up and eat, don't forget to discuss the case." ”

Discuss the case?!

Ji Liu heard them mention this, immediately retracted her mind, in order to behave naturally, she obediently took the chopsticks, buried her head in eating, although the expression on her face was blocked by the dishes and food, but her ears were erected very high, for fear that the two people next to her would suddenly chat, but she missed it.

But the two of them threw the hook, did not set the bait, hung her heart thumping, and did not dare to show it, so she could only sit in the middle and be anxious.

The table full of vegetarian dishes was made by the chef with good color and taste, but the result still couldn't attract the three people with their own thoughts.

Ji Liu looked around and sighed lightly, worried in her heart, unpleasant to eat, really wasting the delicious food in front of her, she bit the chopsticks, hesitated, and finally couldn't resist the worry in her heart, as if she had no intention of asking: "I heard Brother Zhao say, you caught the murderer?" ”

"It is said that she is still the wife of the deceased."

When the two of them heard this, they both stopped their chopsticks and looked up at her, Sheng Li did not reply, but Wen Yuecheng's eyebrows condensed, and he said sadly: "Sister Ji, this kind of husbandicide case will affect the future of becoming a biological baby if you ask too much!" When he spoke, he seemed to care about Ji Liu, but in fact, the implication was to remind her not to ask!

How could Ji Liu not know that she had crossed the line, but she needed to know the details of the case, and if everything was right, Li Yu ...... Isn't there no turning back?! She didn't want to see such an outcome, so she had to plan ahead.

She didn't care about Wen Yuecheng's warning, so she could only ask from what she saw, and said recklessly: "The folk girl said in the court that it was a strong man who threw the corpse, could she have arrested the wrong person?" ”

As soon as the words fell, the expressions of the two were even deeper and weirder, she was like sitting on pins and needles, subconsciously bowing her head to avoid her gaze, pretending that she was inadvertently mentioning. Unexpectedly, she was too nervous and caused her to touch the red and swollen area, Ji Liu gasped and twisted twice, trying not to care about the pinprick feeling coming from under her.

Sheng Li's eyes moved slightly, and he replied: "That's right, the evidence of Li Yu's murder and hiding the body is conclusive, and the man I saw before the girl is related to another suspicious point in the case." As soon as he finished speaking, he was kicked by Wen Yuecheng in the dark again, he looked over, shook his head slightly, and then got up to leave, leaving Ji Liu and Wen Yuecheng alone.

After Wen Yuecheng left with Sheng Li, his eyes still fell on the dishes, he secretly observed Ji Liu, put forward unrealistic speculations, and tested Ji Liu: "This kind of case has seen a lot in Kyoto, it is nothing more than killing a husband and cheating or murdering for money, like Li Yu, it is not necessary to have both." ”

"Impossible!"

Ji Liu retorted excitedly, and after staring at Wen Yuecheng for a long time, she immediately got goosebumps, she noticed that Wen Yuecheng had become suspicious of her, and used Li Yu's matter to force her to expose her emotions.

Obviously she mentioned the words, but she was led by Wen Yuecheng's nose, this feeling is not wonderful, Ji Liu immediately suppressed the unhappiness, pinched the wooden chopsticks, and made a creaking sound between movements, she said with difficulty: "The folk girl just thinks that there are more endings for women in today's world, only self-termination when they are forced to be cornered, as for killing their husbands...... Scold! Ji Liu didn't need to continue, she believed that with the sarcasm on her face at this time, she could make Wen Yuecheng shut up for the time being and stop asking.

"Remember girl, it will be more comfortable to put this on the stool." Wen Yuecheng was choking on Ji Liu and touching his nose in embarrassment, Sheng Li fell from the sky like a god and rescued him, it was the first time to discuss the case with the girl's family, and it was understandable that he couldn't grasp the scale, he secretly thought to himself.

"Thank you, sir."

Ji Liu raised her eyes in amazement, she took the futon that Sheng Li took, but she didn't expect Sheng Li to observe slightly, just moved her body slightly, and he noticed it, even if she and Ji lived together for more than ten years, she had never received such care, and she had mixed feelings for a while.

"Although the folk girl and the jade ...... Li Yu didn't know each other, but he had heard of Qian Qingfeng, the reputation of the neighborhood and the countryside was not very good, and he already had a wife, but he was still entangled with the widow, and beat and scolded his wife at every turn. "Like Qian Qingfeng, who knows if he has offended others outside, even if he is killed, he may deserve it.

For Ji Liu, there are only a few important people in her life, and she will do whatever it takes to repay her well, but as for others, it is difficult for her to remember it in her heart, and she doesn't even know that she is a widow? Or is it a long-term relationship?! He didn't dare to look at Wen Yuecheng, his eyes seemed to be crooked, and he couldn't escape if he hung them.

"......" Qian Qingfeng's life is still on the desk in the study at this time, in addition to saying a hateful word, Wen Yuecheng can't judge other people's housework, he narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "After dinner, the official and Sheng Yu are about to go to the prison to interrogate Li Yu, do you want to go with the girl?" ”

Ji Liu: "? ”

So suddenly.

Wen Yuecheng is the same as the previous appearance of Hang'er Lang, his gaze staring at Ji Liu is like the bright moon reflected in the lake, white and quiet, it is difficult to distinguish between true and false.

Ji Liu was uneasy, just like standing between the cliffs, and the loose stones could fall into the abyss at any time because of her words.

In a panic, she looked at the grand salute sitting beside her.

But Ji Liu glanced at it a few times, and Sheng Li looked like a decent gentleman, his eyes did not squint, and he never responded to her pleas for help.

Ji Liu had no choice but to turn around, forcibly pulled up his face and laughed: "My lord is joking, how can a grass man participate in the interrogation of the murder case?" "No matter what dynasty it is, it is simply trespass for non-officials and non-officials to participate in the interrogation of suspects, especially since she is still a woman.

Wen Yuecheng's eyes lit up in the depths of his eyes, and he quickly waved his hand and said casually: "Why not?!" Brother Wen said, if my sister can go in, you can just go in. ”

As soon as the words came out, there was no reason to take it back, if Ji Liu shirked again, it seemed that there was a ghost in her heart, she nodded helplessly and agreed to go.

Sheng Li breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and he reminded: "If you want to go together, Miss Ji also has to take a medicine, and we are waiting for you here." Continuing to sit here, Ji Liu could not feel at ease, so he got off the donkey and hurriedly got up and retreated.

Sheng Li listened carefully to the movement outside for a while, and made sure that Ji Liu had gone away, and he suddenly said, "Lord Wen, this move is inappropriate. ”

The person in front of him blew on the teacup, and the hot air suddenly drifted forward, and he returned the same way, blocking Sheng Li's sight, and he laughed and said: "The former county official told the old man to return to his hometown, and the sudden fire burned all the household registrations in the yamen, making everyone know. ”

There was no response.

Wen Yuecheng didn't mean to wait for him to pick up, slowly drank a sip of sultry hot tea, and continued: "The information about Li Yu that was brought out only shows that it was bought back by Qian Qingfeng. Don't you also know that even if Li Yu is tortured, she refuses to open her mouth about where she came from. ”

"Your Excellency?" At this moment, Zhao Zhuang's voice came from outside the door, interrupting what Sheng Li wanted to say.

Wen Yuecheng was finally reluctant to raise his head, his eyes were transparent and bright, he hooked the corners of his lips and let the person in.
