"Childe came to me to discuss it can't be about jujube flower cake, right?" Watching the master and servant arguing, Qiao Xiya ate two pieces of dim sum and drank the gruel in front of her, and her whole spirit was much better.

"No," Mo Haoning saw that Qiao Xiya was full of food and drink, and there was spirit in her eyes, so she looked straight and said seriously, "I'm here to discuss with you how to face the saint." ”

Hearing that the two were going to talk about business, Chunling hurriedly took Xia He to clean up the Eight Immortals Table and retreated to the door.

"The emperor is the dragon and phoenix among people, can he believe that it was Wu Minchu, a prefect, who did such a big case?" Qiao Xiya hesitated. She wanted to report Wu Minchu to the emperor as the murderer behind the scenes and rescue her father, but she was afraid that the emperor would find out and condemn her to a bully.

"I understand my father's character." Mo Haoning thought for a while and said, "He wouldn't believe that Wu Minchu was the murderer." But after all, you have to save Master Joe. If you can trust me, then let me explain the reason to my father. Mo Haoning paused and lowered his voice, "The most important thing is to convince the real murderer that you have identified the murderer as Wu Minchu, only in this way will you not startle the snake." ”

"Yes, Wu Minchu said that the murderer is in Jin'an City." Qiao Xiya nodded, "Zhao Mingchen, the prefect of Jin'an City, must know something. ”

"Zhao Mingchen?" Mo Haoning's face was a little unnatural.

"What? Childe knows? ”

Mo Haoning shook his head: "He's dead."

"Dead?" Qiao Xiya's eyes widened and she looked at Mo Haoning in disbelief.

Mo Haoning sighed: "The biggest news from Jin'an City brought back by Chu Yun. It is said that on a dark and windy night, more than ten people in Zhao Mingchen's mansion were all murdered by gangsters, and the gold and silver in the mansion were also robbed. ”

Qiao Xiya's hands couldn't stop trembling, more than ten people, all of them were gone overnight, Qiao Xiya tried to control the trembling voice: "Who did it?"

Mo Haoning looked at Qiao Xiya's pale little face with pity: "It is said that a group of gangsters who have fled to Jin'an City have been arrested and beheaded for public display."

"What about the stolen goods? Is there a jade lion in the stolen goods? ”

"All the stolen goods are gone, and the gangsters at the head have bitten off their tongues."

Mo Haoning's words made Qiao Xiya fall into an ice cave, what kind of threat did she have, she would rather bite off her tongue than keep it a secret. Qiao Xiya felt a trace of indescribable fear.

"What kind of jade lion are you talking about?" Mo Haoning couldn't help but be a little curious when she saw Qiao Xiya's reaction so big.

Qiao Xiya told Zhao Mingchen about going to Qiao's Mansion to search for the jade lion.

"Looks like we're a step too late." Mo Haoning was annoyed.

"Master, according to your orders, they are all burned out." Just when the two of them were remorseful, Chu Yun said at the door.

"Burned out? What to burn? Qiao Xiya looked dazed.

"Chu Yun told his father about the situation here, and his father ordered these corpses to be burned." Mo Haoning said and took Qiao Xiya to the front yard.

"Your Majesty, do you believe we really met a merfolk?" As for the mermaid, Qiao Xiya thinks that if you don't see it with your own eyes, it's hard to believe that the mermaid is real.

"He doesn't really care if there is a mermaid or not." Mo Haoning smiled lightly, "What he cares about is whether the meat of these things will really become immortal if he eats it." ”

Nearly 100 artificial mermaid corpses were burned black, and they were placed in the yard in a disorderly manner, looking weird and terrifying.

"Master, here are the things that were found from the Rejuvenation Hall and the prefect's yamen, what do you think of it?" Chu Yun led the two of them around the black bones and came to the side of the ear room.

A few pearls, two fish skins, and a full range of skinning tools were found in the Rejuvenation Hall, and Qiao Xiya was terrified.

"The painting should be Wu Minchu's wife and daughter." Mo Haoning took the picture scroll standing on the side and opened it gently, showing a beautiful woman and a child with a double bun.

"Give it to me." Qiao Xiya turned out to be a picture, "I promised him to take his wife and daughter into the house." ”

"Okay." Mo Haoning nodded, "You can also hold these two pearls, as a souvenir, or a plaything." I'll take the rest back to the palace to play my father. With that, Mo Haoning handed the two pearls to Qiao Xiya.

"All cleaned up?" A man in a crow-blue cloak stood with his back to the door.

"Yes. Don't worry, adults. ”

"Rest assured?" The man in the cloak snorted coldly, "It's just that I'm too relieved of you, so that the yellow-haired girl not only found the cave, but also almost made the goddess fall short!" ”

"Yes...... It's the incompetence of subordinates......"

"Where are Wu Minchu's wife and daughter now?"

"In the cellar."

"Cut out your tongue, gouge out your eyes, and throw them into mass graves. Wu Minchu is dead, and it's useless to keep them. ”

"Yes."

"Clean hands and feet! The yellow-haired girl will be back in a few days, don't let her catch the flaws again! ”

"Yes......"

"My lord, there is a woman who asks to see me." Outside the door, the sound of the family was heard.

"What woman!" The man in the cloak was disturbed, and he was very unhappy.

"She didn't seem to be able to speak, but her maid gave a small hairpin, saying that when the adults saw this hairpin, they understood." The housekeeper pushed the door open a narrow slit and handed the hairpin in.

The man in the cloak glanced back at the hairpin, and couldn't help but chuckle in his heart: "Invite someone in!"

A short time later, a woman wearing a white gauze hat came up behind the cloaked man, supported by a delicate maid. The housekeeper covered the door and retreated.

"The goddess has worked hard all the way!" The man in the cloak bowed to the woman.

"Your Excellency's Mansion is much more spacious than my Rejuvenation Hall." The woman removed the hat and revealed a peerless beauty.

Jinyu's ghost-like voice made the cloaked man shudder: "If you like it, the lower official will move out tomorrow and give you the house."

"Hahahaha...... "Hyakki's crying laughter almost made the cloaked man's soul go out of his body, "Since the adults are so well-behaved, I can't brush off the kindness of the adults." Jinyu suppressed her laughter, narrowed her beautiful eyes, looked at the man in the cloak coquettishly, and took out a crystal clear box from her arms, in which seven colorful small fish swam around, "Adults don't have to move out with their families, just build a goldfish pond in the backyard, so that we have a place to live, and that's it." ”

"Yes, the lower official will arrange it." The man in the cloak looked at the small fish with greed in his eyes.

"Alright." Jinyu snorted coldly, put the box in his arms, stretched out his hand, pinched the cloaked man's jaw, leaned his face over, and looked at the cloaked man with a knife in a smile, "I promised you, I did it." What about you? What do I want? ”
