Looking in the direction where the sword light came, Hua Rujin found that at the mouth of the alley, a straight figure was sitting on horseback and walking unhurriedly towards this side.

"Miss Hua, is this offending people again?"

Ye Chengwei turned over and dismounted, met her gaze, and slowly walked to the carriage with loose steps.

When they arrived here, Lu Xiuyuan and Ting An squatted down to inspect the body of the swordsman.

Seeing several corpses lying on the ground, Hua Rujin was also puzzled in her heart.

How can anyone want to kill themselves for no reason?

Could it be that it is a good thing to spoil the prefect, and he wants to take revenge maliciously?

Or is it the Meng family?

Seeing that his cousin was safe and sound, the elegant cousin looked over in horror and looked at Cai Baiwei, who was holding on to the edge of the wall with her legs a little paralyzed, and the two frightened little beans, and first comforted: "It's okay." ”

Then he hurriedly walked to the carriage and arched his hand towards Ye Chengwei: "Thank you Brother Chengwei for saving me." ”

"It's a gesture."

Ye Chengwei replied softly, his cool eyes still lingering on Hua Rujin, his eyes full of doubts.

"Could it be Wen Yuming's doing?"

Shu Jinxuan saw that he had been staring at his cousin with sinister eyes, and hurriedly reminded.

Ye Chengwei shook his head calmly: "He won't be so stupid. ”

"That's the Meng family?"

Shu Jinxuan said again.

Hua Rujin also shook her head: "I see that these people are not simple, the Meng family is burning their eyebrows now, and it is impossible to make the current situation worse in a daze." ”

And with his own understanding of Meng Yutang, the yin woman never uses a knife if she wants to harm people, and she will only use some yin tricks to avoid going to this extreme.

"It's all to the point of killing people and destroying mouths, it's not that you have a deep hatred and hatred, you have to live and die, that is, you have someone else's handle in your hand, which makes people jealous."

Ye Chengwei looked at Hua Rujin meaningfully, and agreed with her opinion.

After all, the Meng family only lost some silver this time, and if they were killed on their backs, they would be killing themselves.

Glancing at Lu Xiuyuan with low eyebrows, he immediately ordered: "Bring the body back to the county office, order someone to paint a portrait, and find out the origin of the assassin." ”

"Yes."

Lu Xiuyuan and the servants collected the corpses and immediately left.

Seeing the servants disappear into the night in a hurry, and in the middle of a flash, Ye Chengwei glanced at the frightened Cai Baiwei and the two little beans, and whispered to Ting An: "Send the lady of the flower family back to the carriage first." ”

"Okay."

Ting An replied lightly, and then went over and led the mother and son to get into the Shu family's carriage.

In the alley, only Hua Rujin and Shu Jinxuan remained, and a few people followed the carriage with pressed steps, Ye Chengwei continued to speak suspiciously: "I don't know if Miss Hua knows the origin of the house where she lives right now?" ”

The elegant cousin replied anxiously, "The owner of that house is only a businessman who keeps his duty, and I have sent people to inquire around, and there is indeed nothing suspicious about that house." ”

Ye Chengwei did not directly answer Shu Jinxuan's words, but continued to look at Hua Rujin with a light smile: "There is indeed no problem with the house, and there is no problem with the owner of the house, the problem is the tenant who rented this house before." ”

Hua Rujin vaguely guessed something in her heart at this time, but she was not sure, and asked hesitantly: "What does Ye Gongzi mean by this?" ”

"When this house was first completed, it was leased to a wealthy businessman from Jiang'an County, but this wealthy businessman later disappeared into the county out of thin air, and Jiang'an County was nowhere to be found."

Ye Chengwei took out a file from his arms and handed it to Hua Rujin: "This is an old case that I have studied recently, and it is the case of the disappearance of a wealthy businessman in Jiang'an County. ”

Seeing this, Hua Rujin hurriedly took it.

While she was looking at the file, Ye Chengwei said eloquently: "It is said that the rich businessman was going back to Jiang'an County to celebrate his young daughter's birthday before he disappeared, but his family waited for many days and did not wait for the news of the rich businessman's return, so he had to come to the county to look for someone, and for this he also sued the county office, and the matter has been deadlocked for about a year, and then the mother and daughter who complained also disappeared out of thin air. ”

"I see."

Hua Rujin smiled bitterly and put away the file, and now it was almost certain that Cheng Nini and her deceased mother were the ones who went to the county government to complain.

"I sent someone to Jiang'an County to investigate, but the mother and daughter have not returned to their hometowns, and may still be in this county."

Ye Chengwei's apricot eyes moved slightly, and he looked at her coldly.

Thinking about the situation when I went to her house to check that night, although there were doubts, but this Nizi wanted to cover up, and he couldn't force him to ask.

"Your suspicions are not unreasonable."

Hua Rujin smiled calmly.

But this time, she couldn't directly tell him about the discovery of Cheng Nini in the tunnel.

First, she still didn't know why Cheng Nini's mother and daughter were hunted down and killed by the government, and why the girl's father disappeared mysteriously;

Moreover, this matter involves the internal affairs of the government, which is different from the Dou family, and she does not have enough confidence in Ye Chengwei.

Shu Jinxuan looked at the tentative eyes of the two on the side, as if his cousin had deliberately hidden the mother and daughter.

And it sounds like the mother and daughter are not at fault, they just want to find their relatives, even if the cousin hides someone, it will not cause death.

"This Ye Gongzi seems to have deliberately targeted his cousin recently."

Shu Jinxuan muttered to himself dissatisfied, thinking of the two people he met in Jinhu Tower, so he deliberately changed the topic: "Brother Cheng, what case have you been trying recently, you have been deceived by someone, today we met a young man in Jinhu Tower, and he brought a childish child, listening to them talk about you, it seems that they are extremely disdainful of you." ”

"Oh? Is there such a thing? ”

Ye Chengwei felt a pang in his heart, but then he thought that it should be the Zhang family brother.

"Speaking of which, I did have a strange encounter today."

Ye Chengwei's eyes lazily sprinkled on the two of them: "The bitter master of the headless male corpse family a while ago was beating the drum in front of the yamen today, I thought that the two cousins were determined to come to seek justice for the deceased, but I never thought that the two brothers did not mention the punishment of the murderer, and even pleaded to identify the identity of the deceased, and opened their mouths to directly ask the county for silver, and asked the Han family to compensate three hundred taels of silver as the maintenance of the deceased's orphans." ”

"It's really cold."

Shu Jinxuan shook his head again and again.

"It's really rare in the world."

Ye Chengwei sneered: "It's okay to be a nephew, but your own son should always take care of a little bit of flesh and blood." ”

"Maybe it's not my own son."

Hua Rujin recalled the conversation between the two before in her mind at this moment, and she also felt that something was very wrong: "I'm afraid that they are only here for silver." ”

It's just that this food looks too ugly.

Even if he is only a nephew, he should think about seeking justice for his uncle first and making it difficult for people to go to the ground, so that at least he can win a little more sympathy and win people's hearts when fighting for compensation.

And Ye Chengwei has already made a decision on this matter and does not comment much.

Seeing that he was about to arrive at the door of the Dehua family's house, he suddenly smiled, pretending to be mysterious and said to Hua Rujin: "This county has taken over a lawsuit for Miss Hua's family, and someone will come to the door tomorrow." ”

"Took a case for me?"

Hua Rujin looked at him in disbelief.

Would he be so kind?

Isn't this guy the most annoying to instigate lawsuits, why is he still guilty of himself?

"Of course."

Ye Chengwei smiled bitterly.

The suspect took the initiative to sign and confess his guilt, even if he suspected that he was suspected of being tortured, but the magistrate of a county could not beg the murderer to retract the case and change his confession.

"Thank you."

Hua Rujin smiled stiffly.

It's unclear whether he's really warm-hearted or not. Have an axe to grind.

"Hands up, Miss Flower. You're welcome. ”

Ye Chengwei said goodbye to the two: "Farewell." ”

Then he jumped on the green horse and quickly disappeared into the night with Ting'an's figure.
