Ling Yinyun nodded and began to knock on the wall, moving forward step by step. Seeing him acting like this, Wu Ran asked, "Chief Ling, what are you doing?" Ling Yinyun ignored him and continued to smash the wall with his hand. For a long time, as Ji Dongmei said, one of the walls echoed empty, as if there was a mystery. He touched the wall, frowning, not knowing how to turn it on. Ji Dongmei saw that he was hesitant and said, "The mechanism is on the vase." ”

Ling Yinyun was suspicious, walked to the edge of the table, turned the vase, and sure enough, the secret compartment was opened, and many medicinal herbs were placed inside. Ling Yinyun sniffed it, felt a little pungent, and frowned: "Is this the poisoned medicinal herb?" ”

When Qi Muxiong heard this, he exclaimed: "You mean, the person who poisoned is Su'er?" ”

Without waiting for Ling Yinyun to reply, he closed Kuang Jing and said to himself: "This may not be, maybe someone has been framed for stolen goods." He looked at Ji Dongmei and questioned, "Why do you know that there is a secret grid here?" ”

Ji Dongmei smiled and said, "It's not difficult to find out about this. Please see, this room is full of flowers and plants, and even spices are placed on the table. If you want to decorate the house and add aroma, this is too much. If it is to keep people from smelling the smell of medicine and hide it with the fragrance of flowers and herbs, then it makes sense. ”

Guan Kuang said coldly: "If that's the case, then how do you know where the organ is?" ”

Ji Dongmei said casually: "This vase is wiped clean and spotless, but after the flowers and plants in the house are cut, they are not inserted in the vase, but placed arbitrarily, which is strange." ”

Wu Ran opened his mouth and asked, "Could it be that they died of martyrdom?" ”

Ji Dongmei shook her head and said, "It shouldn't be." Generally, the martyred person will at least leave a suicide note to inform everyone of the love and helplessness. Moreover, since she knows how to take drugs, why didn't she take poison and commit suicide, but hanged herself? ”

Wu Ran thought for a while and said, "Could it be that you are afraid of pain?" ”

Ji Dongmei said: "It is reasonable for her to poison Qi Zhan, because of love and hatred, and let him struggle and suffer." But if you kill yourself, you can prepare a quick and painless poison. ”

Wu Ran frowned and said, "If it weren't for martyrdom, could it be that he killed him?" ”

Ji Dongmei bowed her head and said: "This matter is not clear, I must ask Vice General Wu to investigate, and it is inconvenient for Dongmei to interfere." ”

Seeing that she had finished speaking, Ling Yinyun stepped forward and said, "Mr. Qi, this case is complicated, for a while, I am afraid that it will be difficult to have a result, and it will be late at night, so it is better to invite everyone back to the room first." ”

Wu Ran echoed: "Regarding the matter between Ling Lang and Lu Su, Wu will send someone to find out the truth, and Ling Lang will be fair, and he will never settle the matter, please be relieved." ”

Qi Muxiong looked at Chu Yihou on the side and said: "I'm sorry to make Chu Yihou and Ling Qianjin unhappy, the little dog didn't have a chance to marry Ling Qianjin, he was not blessed, and this marriage will not be mentioned again." ”

Chu Yihou's face was solemn, and he said: "Ben Hou is not happy to see such a regrettable thing happen. You can rest assured, Ben Hou will personally make the decision for you, find out the murderer behind the scenes, and give you an explanation. ”

Qi Muxiong's eyes turned red and said, "Thank you Chu Yihou." ”

After a long time, everyone dispersed and went back to their rooms, and Chu Yihou and Qi Muxiong went to the main hall to discuss the marriage. Seeing that the temporary situation was over, Ling Yinyun turned around, took Ji Dongmei's hand, and prepared to go back to the room. Just as the two of them were walking in the corridor, thinking about what had happened to Fang Cai, Qi Quan suddenly followed, and said with a bow: "Lord Ling, can you take a step to speak?" ”

Without waiting for Ling Yinyun to respond, Ji Dongmei broke free of his hand, smiled slightly, and said, "I'll go to the front and wait for Ling Ye." Ling Yinyun nodded, glanced at her, and motioned for her not to go too far, so as not to be entangled again. Immediately, he turned around, calmly, and asked, "I don't know what is the matter for Mrs. Quan to find Ling?" ”

Qi Quan groaned slightly and said, "Thank you Lord Ling for this matter." If it weren't for Lord Ling's righteous help, I am afraid that the relationship between the two families would change, and the consequences would be unimaginable. ”

Ling Yinyun said: "Actually, Ling didn't do anything, all the credit belongs to Dongmei." ”

Qi Quan raised his pretty face and said, "If it weren't for Ling Ye here, how could she make a move?" After getting to the bottom of it, Ling Ye still helped. ”

Ling Yinyun said: "Alas, it is rare to be praised by Mrs. Quan, but there is only emptiness. ”

Seeing that he was pretending to be helpless, Qi Quan looked funny, and laughed like a silver bell. After a while, her complexion softened slightly, and she said seriously: "By the way, about last night's incident, the concubine thought about it carefully, and Qi Yuan was afraid that she was being used." ”

Ling Yinyun asked, "Why did Mrs. Quan say this?" ”

Qi Quan said: "If Lord Ling didn't subdue Qi Yuan last night, then when Guan Kuang broke in, he would see that Qi Yuan was being rude to the concubine. At the mention of rudeness, Qiquan looked embarrassed and lowered his head. She paused and continued: "According to such words, everyone will arrest Qi Yuan and take him for interrogation, and the concubine will also be ruined. ”

Ling Yinyun frowned and said, "But Qiyuan and Guan Shangkuang are just playing on the spot, how can they be said to be used?" ”

Qi Quan shook his head and said, "Lord Ling, at today's banquet, you didn't see Guo Ping and Guan Shangkuang, they got along well, and they were not just perfunctory on the surface. If the concubine was not mistaken, they cooperated from the beginning and tricked Qi Yuan into thinking that he was the one who benefited. ”

Ling Yinyun was shocked in his heart and said, "Is there any evidence?" ”

Qi Quan's beautiful eyes turned and said, "Lord Ling, please think about it, breaking into a woman's boudoir in the middle of the night is completely rude, not to mention closing the general Kuang, how can such a person act recklessly." If he is sure that there will be prayers in the room, then it makes sense for him to do so. ”

Ling Yinyun pondered for a long time, sighed, and said, "It seems that Qi Yuan has been played. ”

Qiquan sighed faintly and said, "Closing Kuang and Guo Ping's move is to destroy the Knife Casting Village." ”

Ling Yinyun said: "Mrs. Quan, don't worry, Ling will not let them succeed." He suddenly remembered something and said, "But in this way, does Mrs. Quan still plan to solve Qiyuan?" ”

Qi Quan was stunned when he heard this, lowered his pretty face, and said, "Even if he is used, what he has committed remains the same. His fate was decided by Lord Ling, and the concubine no longer bothered. ”

Ling Yinyun nodded and said, "Ling understands." ”

Qi Quan's eyes shot a look of worry, and said, "Lord Ling, be careful, if you offend Guan Shangkuang today, he shouldn't let you go easily." ”

Ling Yinyun smiled and said, "Ling is honored to have Mrs. Quan's worries. ”

Qi Quanxing's eyes were round, and he said angrily: "Lord Ling is poor again. In short, Lord Ling, please be careful, and the concubine has taken her leave. With that, she turned and walked away. If it was normal, Ling Yinyun might have teased her, but Ji Dongmei was by his side, and he didn't want her to wait for a long time.

Ling Yinyun walked up to Ji Dongmei and said, "Thanks to you today." ”

Ji Dongmei smiled and said, "This is what I should do." Ling Yinyun took her hand and returned to the room. Back in the house, tired all day, Ling Yinyun quickly fell asleep.

The next day, he freshened up a little, and together with Ji Dongmei, he went to find Wu Ran, wanting to ask about the follow-up last night. On the way, they met Yin Xiu, and the three of them walked side by side.

Wu Ran seemed to have stayed up all night, with a tired look on his face and a little absent-minded. It wasn't until he drew a basin of water from the well and poured himself up that he regained his ability to speak. Wu Ran took a sip of tea and said, "I looked for the doctor and the medical officer last night, and Qi Zhan was killed by the wine ointment, and Lu Su was hanged. It's just that when Lu Su died, he didn't have any struggle, which was very unreasonable, and they suspected that Lu Su was unconscious at that time. ”

Ji Dongmei said: "Maybe it's a drug." ”

Ling Yinyun thought for a moment and sighed: "In short, it is confirmed that he was killed." It seems that it is necessary to find out that person, otherwise Brother Qi will die blindly. ”

Yin Xiu stretched his waist and yawned: "This still needs to be asked, Guan Shangkuang has been targeting Bai Wan last night, I think Bacheng was he who instigated Lu Su to poison him, and then killed people." ”

Wu Ran nodded and said, "Wu Mou also feels the same way, and always feels that Guan Kuang has bad intentions." I've met him a few times before, and he's not a positive person, so there's definitely something deceitful. ”

Ling Yinyun said: "It seems that you have to be more wary of him." When everyone was discussing, they suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, and saw that the prayer spring was gentle and elegant, graceful and colorful, coming from not far away. Yin Xiu looked at her, stunned for a long time, dumbfounded.

Qi Quan saluted and said, "Lord Ling, can you borrow some time?" ”

Ling Yinyun shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands, and said, "It's all my own people here, Mrs. Quan doesn't have to worry about it." ”

Qiquan hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "The concubine received the news that Yongshanjun was on the way here. ”

Ling Yinyun was shocked in his heart, remembering that before escorting Bai Wan here, he had met Wen Ji to intercept the road, and Wen Ji was the person sent by Yongshan Jun to assassinate him. Could it be that Yongshanjun saw the failure of the assassination and came in person? Ling Yinyun frowned and asked, "Does Lady Quan know why he came?" ”

Qi Quan shook his head and said, "The concubine's body is not clear, but it is definitely not good." ”

Seeing everyone's solemn expressions, Yin Xiu shrugged his shoulders and said casually: "What's so nervous about this, with Chu Yihou sitting here, forgive him no matter how powerful he is, he has to let three points of thin noodles." ”

Qiquan sank down and said, "The concubine is worried about Chu Yihou." ”

Ling Yinyun was speechless, puzzled, and said, "Why do you say that?" ”

Qiquan pondered for a while, frowned slightly, sighed, and said, "This is the concubine's guess, and there is no evidence yet." If Yongshanjun comes, plots against Chu Yihou, and blames others for this matter, it will be a bad thing. First, he can get rid of Chu Yihou, and second, no one can stop him, so he can act recklessly. ”

Ling Yinyun frowned and said, "Why did he get rid of Chu Yihou?" ”

Qiquan said: "The Marquis of Chu Yi is the county guard of Luzhou, governing the north of the White Tiger Country, and controlling the army. ”

Ling Yinyun said: "Why can he fight? ”

Qiquan explained: "Most of the county guards are members of the royal family, or generals. Except for the crown prince, only Le Pingjun is left to compete with him. Yongshan Jun is the main battle faction, and most of the people he knows in the court are generals, even if he himself cannot become a county guard, it is also obtained by the people of his party. ”

When Wu Ran heard this, he sank down and said, "If you let him get Luzhou, then he will be even more powerful." With his character of great joy, he forcibly conscripted soldiers, so that the people were miserable and their lives were miserable, which was a predictable thing. ”
