Chapter 32: The First Encounter with a Beautiful Boy

The scene of the murder was a farmland at the foot of a mountain not far from the center of the city, and the victim was an old farmer who made a living from farming. Pei Ziyu came to the corpse, slowly squatted down, and carefully examined the fatal wound on the victim's chest, while five or six officials stood in a row, waiting for the dispatch.

After inspecting the corpse, Pei Ziyu stood up lightly and spoke to the official and asked, "Who found the corpse?" ”

A servant stepped forward and reported, "My lord, this is this young man." After speaking, the official pointed to a handsome young man standing against a tree not far away, holding a jade flute. Pei Ziyu looked in the direction of the officer's finger, only to see the beautiful young man with delicate facial features leaning on the tree leisurely, the two looked at each other directly, Pei Ziyu looked up and down, raised his feet and walked towards him, and the young man saw Pei Ziyu walking slowly, not only did he want to greet him, but turned around, raised his hand and leaned against the tree behind him, his eyes slightly closed, looking calm and relaxed.

Pei Ziyu walked up to him and froze, "But this corpse you found?" ”

"Hmm." The boy replied lazily, still not opening his eyes.

The distance between the two was only one step away, allowing Pei Ziyu to see the luxurious brocade shirt on the young man's body clearly, and Pei Ziyu then asked: "I see that your brocade clothes and jade belt are not like the clothes of ordinary peasant people nearby, why did you appear in this remote place?" ”

After hearing this, the young man opened his eyes slightly, glanced at Pei Ziyu, and smiled disdainfully, "Hehe~ I didn't expect that I would be so enthusiastic about reporting to the official, but instead of making meritorious contributions to the official family, I was also suspected. ”

Pei Ziyu: "This corpse was the first one you found, so I naturally want to ask more clearly." ”

"Hey, it's boring, it's not fun, since all the people from your government have arrived, then it's useless for me to stay here." With that, the boy got up from the tree and prepared to leave.

Seeing this, Pei Ziyu immediately pulled out the saber on his body and put it on the young man's neck, "You can't leave yet." ”

At this time, the young man was obviously a little enraged, just as he was holding the hand of the jade flute and preparing to fight back, a neighing of a horse and a rapid sound of horse hooves came, and the two looked at the place where the sound came from at the same time, only to see Cheng Yuan and Li Mingyue's royal horse galloping, and in an instant the horse had come to Pei Ziyu, Cheng Yuan quickly dismounted, knelt on one knee and said: "My lord, my subordinates have brought Miss Mingyue over." ”

"Okay." Pei Ziyu only said one word, and his expression was slightly serious.

At this time, Li Mingyue didn't understand what was going on, she just looked around, and muttered mentally, "Why do you want to come here?" As soon as the words fell, Pei Ziyu strode to the horses, and Li Mingyue saw Pei Ziyu coming over, so she asked, "Pei Ziyu, why are you all working outdoors now?" But this environment doesn't look very good, this field. Before the words were finished, they were dragged off the horse by Pei Ziyu.

Li Mingyue: "Hey, hey, hey, slow down, you want to kill me." ”

Pei Ziyu pulled Li Mingyue directly, and walked forward without looking back, Li Mingyue followed crookedly behind, just as Li Mingyue was trying to stabilize his footing, Pei Ziyu had already come to the officials, and the officials immediately vacated a way, Pei Ziyu squeezed sideways, and then dragged Li Mingyue in, pulled forward hard, and let go of his hand, Li Mingyue was thrown by Pei Ziyu and walked to the front, and finally stopped, Li Mingyue turned around and faced Pei Ziyu, "Pei Ziyu, you!" It's so ungraceful! I didn't hear me keep shouting that I was going to fall! ”

Pei Ziyu put his hands in his arms, looking a little angry, Li Mingyue became angry when he saw this, "Hey, Pei Ziyu, you invited me over today, what do you mean by this expression, if you ......" Speaking of this, Li Mingyue suddenly realized that she seemed to have stepped on something, and couldn't help but slowly look down at her feet, two fingers came into view, and then looked behind her, there was a dead body lying on the ground. Li Mingyue's eyes widened, and in an instant, like a frightened bird, a bounce pounced into Pei Ziyu's arms, "Mom! How can there be a corpse here! ”。 After Li Mingyue recovered, she found that she was firmly hanging on Pei Ziyu's body, so she quickly let go of her hand and straightened her clothes and bun.

Pei Ziyu shook his head disdainfully and smiled, "Heh~ Didn't you see too many corpses, why are you so scared of such a small scene today?" ”

Li Mingyue: "I, of course I won't be scared!" It's just that I was brought here in a hurry and said I wanted to see you, and suddenly stepped on a corpse, how could I not be startled! ”

"Oh~ I know, you want me to come here today, isn't that just for this?" Li Mingyue pointed at the dead corpse with her finger and suddenly realized.

Pei Ziyu: "Otherwise, what do you think I asked you to do here?" ”

Li Mingyue was suddenly asked by Pei Ziyu, and hurriedly fought back: "How do I know what you asked me to do here, I just know that there must be no good thing!" ”

Pei Ziyu's originally aroused desire to tease was instantly extinguished by Li Mingyue's words, his eyes were slightly disappointed, and he said impartially: "Then hurry up and check the body, don't you want to clear your suspicion as soon as possible." ”

Li Mingyue: "Hmph! Check and check! ”

With that, Li Mingyue squatted down and carefully examined the body. And the handsome young man who had just stood aside and witnessed the whole process felt that things seemed to have become interesting, so he couldn't help but walk up to him, stand behind the servant, and carefully observe the woman in front of him who was called "Miss Mingyue" by others, this woman who made him feel a little special.

After inspecting the corpse, Li Mingyue straightened out the deceased's clothes, got up and said to Pei Ziyu: "This person's death method is the same as the death method of the two corpses I saw in the yamen before, and the blood from the wound has not completely coagulated, it should be less than an hour to die, oh, no, half an hour." ”

Pei Ziyu: "In less than half an hour, it should be the future." The murderer must not have run too far, so you should carry the corpse back to the yamen first, and together with the two corpses before, you must send more people to guard it strictly. ”

"Yes!" The officials said in unison, and carried the body away.

Pei Ziyu: "Chengyuan, let's stay here and look for other clues to see if there are any other clues."

Chengyuan: "Yes! ”

Boy: "What do you call my sister?" But it's called Mingyue? ”

Pei Ziyu looked behind him when he heard the sound, and saw the beautiful young man holding Li Mingyue's hands and looking at her intently. And Li Mingyue was also shocked by the young man's behavior, and replied a little bluntly: "Eh, it's ......"

Seeing others grabbing Li Mingyue's hand so frivolously, Pei Ziyu obviously felt very unhappy, and when he saw Li Mingyue, he didn't mean to refuse, so he stepped forward quickly and pushed the young man's hand away with his sword, "The governor of Zhejiang is here, and I can't tolerate you being so light and thin!" ”

Li Mingyue listened to Pei Ziyu's words, and couldn't help but look at him with wide eyes, while the young man glanced at Pei Ziyu, and continued to take Li Mingyue's hand again with no concern, "Sister, my name is Shen Nanxing, you can call me Nanxing in the future." ”

Seeing that Shen Nanxing was so openly provoking himself, Pei Ziyu threw the saber to Chengyuan, stretched out his hand and clasped one of his hands holding Li Mingyue behind his back, "Arrogance! Cheng Yuan, escort this person back to the yamen first, interrogate him well, and then release him after his identity is clarified and the suspicion is cleared. ”

Shen Nanxing wanted to use his kung fu to get rid of the shackles, but when he did it, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and shouted on his lips: "Oops, it hurts, let go of me, I just happened to pass by here, and I happened to see a corpse on the ground, so I kindly reported to the official, don't you wronged a good person!" Oops~ It hurts! Shen Nanxing cried out in pain.

Li Mingyue: "Pei Ziyu, I don't think he's a bad person, you let him go first, you see, he seems to be in pain." ”

"Humph! Whether he is a good person or a bad person is judged by his appearance alone, when I interrogated him just now, he answered the question and was extremely uncooperative, I think he is clearly a major suspect! As he spoke, Pei Ziyu increased the strength in his hands, while Shen Xingnan wailed even more.

Seeing this, Li Mingyue hurriedly pulled Pei Ziyu's hand away with all her strength and pulled Shen Nanxing to her side, "Hey, I said Pei Ziyu, is it good to suspect people to have a basis, first they suspected me, and now they suspect this son who is kind enough to report the case, do you look at your mood when you investigate the case?" Whoever doesn't like the eye will be arrested! ”

Pei Ziyu: "Li Mingyue! Where are you? ”

Li Mingyue: "Hmph! I'm calling it helping, not helping relatives! ”

Pei Ziyu: "You! ”

Shen Nanxing: "Thank you, sister, for saving me." ”

Li Mingyue: "You're welcome, you're welcome, but, then again, you can call me Mingyue directly, the title of sister is still waived, I'm only eighteen years old, not that old." ”

Shen Nanxing: "That's even more right, I'm seventeen years old, and my sister is one year older than me." ”

"......" Li Mingyue stared at the boy in front of him, who was more than eight feet tall, obviously a little incredulous.

Shen Nanxing: "But since my sister doesn't like it, then Nanxing won't call it that way in the future, and it's obviously closer to call it 'Mingyue' directly!" ”

Li Mingyue nodded happily, and the conversation between the two made Pei Ziyu, who was standing on the side, suddenly jealous and angry. He sighed through his nose, and then he didn't want to say anything, just passed between the two of them and walked straight forward, Chengyuan following closely behind.

"Hey! Pei Ziyu, where are you going? Li Mingyue hurriedly followed, and Shen Xingnan also stuck behind Li Mingyue like a fart when he saw this.

Pei Ziyu stood still, "Naturally, I'm looking for clues around here." Then he continued on his way.

"I'm going too!" Li Mingyue followed Pei Ziyu's footsteps, and Shen Nanxing also took two steps forward.

Pei Ziyu stood up again, "No need, just chat with your brother who saved you righteously." With that, he hastened his pace and left.

"You won't let me follow, I'm going to follow." After speaking, Li Mingyue trotted forward all the way.

Shen Nanxing: "Hey~ I'm going too!" ”
