Chapter 517: Murder Occurs (1)
What he said was 'giving the child a name', not giving Lan Ling a name, which meant that he would accept her only for the sake of the child's face, which shows that for him, the heir is far more important than the child's mother.
Lan Ling and Chu Mu looked at each other, they never thought that his father would compromise because of a child, and agree to Lan Ling's entry so quickly, this is an unexpected good news for them!
But for Qin Xiangxiang, it was like a bolt from the blue, this old man agreed that this fox spirit had started, so wouldn't it be even more difficult for her to get rid of her?
Chu Liuyang deliberately retreated, but others didn't dare to say more, and the Chu Mansion returned to its former apparent calm.
Chu Muli and Lan Ling's marriage was put on the agenda, because Lan Ling was not a beautiful girl, not even a small jasper, Chu Liuyang didn't want to introduce such a daughter-in-law to more relatives and friends, so he only gave them a simple marriage ceremony, which was considered that Lan Ling was staying in Chu Mansion.
The wedding is big or small, for Lan Ling, she doesn't care so much, maybe she thinks more openly, she doesn't force everything, she likes to go with the flow, she feels that as long as she can really live with Chu Muli, it is a gift from God.

But say the other side.
After Ru Yi, Yuan Liang, and Xiao Ya left Jiali Town, they stopped and stopped and came to Golan County after a ten-day journey. Golan County is a necessary place for Jiangnan to go to the imperial capital, with a dense population and a lot of commerce, but it is a good place. This place is only 500 miles away from Qinghe County, and the carriage can reach it in about three days.
Originally, the three of them planned to stay in an inn called Fulai in Golan County for one night and leave the next day, striving to reach Ru's house in Qinghe County as soon as possible, and then after settling down Ruyi, Yuan Liang could go to the imperial capital to take the exam with peace of mind.
However, they never thought that the next day, before the three of them left Golan County, they were forced to be involved in a murder case and could not extricate themselves.
The deceased was a scholar who was rushing to take the exam, named Xue Yiqian, who had just checked into the Fulai Inn a few days ago, but he didn't expect to be killed this morning, and the person who reported the case was the shopkeeper in the inn.
Because it was a scholar who died in a hurry to take the exam, and because there were many scholars who passed by Golan County recently, the top authorities attached great importance to it, and this case suddenly caused a sensation in the entire Golan County.
The county magistrate felt pressured by the prefect, and the county magistrate put more pressure on the newly appointed Wang Zhutou, issuing a warrant for the murderer to be pursued, requiring Wang Zhutou to solve the case within the first ten days, otherwise he would pack up his things and get out.
Wang Zhutou has not been in contact with murder cases since he became the head catcher, and he has been exposed to some small things before, and it is the first time he has faced such a big case, and he has no experience in handling cases, so he can't handle it all of a sudden!
Worried about worrying, Wang Zhutou still tried his best to face this murder case, and strive to arrest the murderer within ten days.
When Wang Zhutou led people to the Fulai Inn, Yuan Liang stood at the counter and checked out with the shopkeeper, and Xiao Ya helped Ruyi to stand on the side and wait.
Wang Zhu's hair was meticulously combed, his face was cold, and he had a long beard, looking like a rough man. His sharp gaze swept over everyone in the inn, and said: "The Fulai Inn has a life case, this case is handed over to me to deal with, and all the people in the inn are not allowed to leave Golan County without my order, nor are they allowed to leave the Fulai Inn, and after the case is cleared, you will naturally be let go." ”
