"Yes, it's thin, but I'm certainly not mistaken." Mu Jiufeng affirmed.

Gu Li speculated: "So Kou Niang used to practice martial arts all year round to leave calluses, and the calluses became thinner and even barely visible, indicating that she has not practiced martial arts in recent years or even more than ten years." ”

Ye Sili thought for a moment and said, "Even if Kou Niang conceals this, at present, they still have no motive. ”

"That's right." Ye Sili suddenly remembered what Kou Niang said when she was leaving, and wondered: "Is there a possibility-their purpose is not to assassinate me, Xiao Ling, or Chu Qing." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Mu Jiufeng began to turn the folding fan in his hand again.

Gu Liwu listened quietly to Ye Sili's analysis.

"First, as Jiufeng Fang just said, the crime of assassinating the royal family is too big, and it is inevitable that he will not take such a risk without full motives."

Moreover, according to Kou Niang, their family is a veterinarian, and they are naturally quite familiar with various animals and their medicines. Do you remember the last time the horses were lost in the countryside? ”

Gu Li listened silently, and Mu Jiufeng suddenly realized: "The drug that was discovered last time was also theirs?" ”

Ye Sili nodded and said, "When I left Kou Niang's house just now, I accidentally saw white powder on the hem of her skirt, and after inquiry, I learned that the powder was medicine for sick cows. What if last time our horses were not carried away silently after being stunned, but were drugged and controlled, and they went with someone? ”

"It all makes sense." Gu Liwu said.

If the horse is stunned and then transported away, it is impossible for Gu Liwu and Mu Jiufeng not to notice such a big movement.

If the other party is good at medicine, control the horse, and let the horse take the initiative to leave with him, he only needs to clear the footprints a little. The dosage was controlled just right, and as soon as the effect of the medicine passed the next day, Ma Er would naturally take the initiative to find Mu Jiufeng and them.

Mu Jiufeng only felt extremely frightened after thinking about it, "If it was really Zhang Song last time, the suburbs and assassination...... Then their goal is Si Li! ”

Ye Sili didn't answer, just set his eyes on Gu Liwei, waiting for his answer.

Gu Liwu looked at her and said slowly, "Their target is me." ”

"They just wanted to threaten me."

Ye Sili looked at Gu Liwu worriedly.

Mu Jiufeng was stunned, how could he not have imagined that Zhang Song and the others would risk the crime of killing their heads and raiding their homes, and they went around in such a big circle, just to threaten Gu Liwu?

"Why?" Mu Jiufeng asked puzzled. Gu Liwei has always been decent, and he has never done anything beyond his detention, how could he let people seize the handle and threaten him at such a painful price?

Ye Sili looked at Gu Liwu worriedly, only to see Gu Liwu solemnly said to Mu Jiufeng: "The Kou Niang you saw today is surnamed Gu." ”

"What's her last name to me?" As soon as Mu Jiufeng's voice fell, he reacted, his face changed, and he asked cautiously, "Is she related to the Gu Mansion back then?" ”

Gu Liwu nodded, Mu Jiufeng thought about these things seriously, only felt a little ridiculous, and said suspiciously:

"They think you have something to do with the Gu Mansion, so how many times did they want to force you to come forward?"

"No, no, no." Mu Jiufeng shook his head again and said, "If you suspect that you have something to do with the Gu Mansion, you can contact you privately, so why bother to assassinate someone from the royal family?" ”

Mu Jiufeng suddenly thought of something, his face was shocked, and he lowered his voice and said: "Unless they are from the Gu Mansion, they have experienced the tragedy of destroying the door back then, and this time they are for revenge!" ”

"That makes sense." Mu Jiufeng said to himself: "Back then, the will of the Gu Mansion to destroy the gate was given by the Holy Heaven, so they hated the people of the royal family. At that time, the Gu family army and Daliang were almost wiped out, so this time they learned that Chu Qing, the prince of Daliang, had come to Beijing to take revenge. In addition, they want to use threats to win over the worries, and the only way to start is from Sili. On the night of the assassination, it happened that all three of them were there! ”

Ye Sili was still puzzled, "If they want to win over the worries, why did they go around in such a big circle that night in the suburbs?" ”

Mu Jiufeng didn't figure it out either, "That's right, although the surname is Gu, but he is not from the Gu Mansion back then, what is the use of them looking for worry?" ”

Ye Sili suddenly remembered Zhang Song in the private prison, and asked, "Ah Worry, what did you judge over there?" ”

Bai Yi handed over the confession of the painting, and Ye Sili and Mu Jiufeng read it carefully.

Gu Liwu said: "Zhang Song's confession is not much different from what you just said. However, he kept silent about the Gu Mansion back then, according to his confession, in the early years, he and Kou Niang's parents and brothers were all killed by the Liang soldiers, so this assassination was carried out. ”

After reading the confession, Mu Jiufeng breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It turned out to be a false alarm, which has nothing to do with Gu Jiajun, and Zhang Song's confession, this case can be regarded as closed." ”

Mu Jiufeng yawned lazily, put away the folding fan, got up and said, "Since this case has come to light, then I will go back to rest." ”

When Mu Jiufeng walked away, Ye Sili closed the door, and the room was only her and Gu Liwu, she thought about it for a long time, and finally asked:

"Ah Yu, they're here to find you, right?"

She had thought of countless possibilities, but now she had to admit it.

"Yes." Gu Liwu did not deny it, looked at Ye Sili frankly, and promised: "This matter is over here, I will not investigate." ”

"That night I heard the sound of the flute and mistook it for you, so I went out to look for it, and I only heard you play that tune."

"I learned the music when I was young, and I can't remember exactly who taught it and when."

Ye Sili let out an "oh" and nodded, she had always believed what Gu Liwu said, but asked curiously: "Is that Zhang Song really connected to the Nine Clans?" The people in Wutong Village are very good. ”

Gu Li thought for a while and said, "The holy will is unpredictable, but there is a way." ”

That night, Ye Sili entered the Thousand Spirits Palace. The next day, the fourth prince Xiao Yu escorted Zhang Song into the palace, it is said that Emperor Zhou Yuan was furious, wanted to issue an edict to punish his nine clans, the fifth princess Xiao Ling asked to see at the moment of life and death, and cried in front of Emperor Zhou Yuan for a long time before leaving, and then Emperor Zhou Yuan issued an order to kill Zhang Song, and the case was closed.

"The emperor actually only gave Zhang Song one person to death, which is unexpected." Mu Jiufeng looked at the few people in front of him curiously, asking them to come quickly.

Xiao Ling smiled proudly, and immediately made a pitiful look, "People shed a lot of tears." ”

Everyone laughed when they saw her.

"But this matter is thanks to Si Li and Li Wei, otherwise Wutong Village would really be in a catastrophe." Xiao Ling said with some fear.

Ye Sili played with Mu Jiufeng's folding fan, "The emperor already feels indebted to Xiaoling for the marriage, and it is naturally best for her to intercede." Moreover, Zhang Song handed over the antidote, fortunately it did not cause a catastrophe, and Rao Qi's nine clans were not embarrassed. ”

"Dahanqi said that Chu Qing's injuries have improved, and the person has woken up, should we go and visit?" Xiao Yu reminded.

Xiao Ling and Ye Sili immediately agreed, and a few people went to find Chu Qing.

At this moment, Ye Sili and the others didn't know how much danger they had taken, maybe they were really young and ignorant to dare to play with the Son of Heaven.
