"Can you see it?!"

At this moment, Xue Mu was embarrassed.

He didn't expect Nangong Xue's brain circuit to be so peculiar.

But it's normal.

So he came up with an excuse and said, "Actually, I smelled the rouge on her body and felt something different." ”

"You can smell that, too?" Nangong Xue was a little surprised.

Xue Mu said with a smile: "I can't see with my eyes, and other places naturally have to have strengths." ”

After hearing this, Nangong Xue was a little surprised, but finally agreed with Xue Mu's statement.

After a brief observation, the corpse of the palace maid in front of him had no external injuries, and there were no traces of poisoning.

Basically, other man-made homicides can be ruled out.

Just as she was about to leave, Xue Mu noticed a detail.

That is, there is a slight bruise on the hairline of the palace maid's forehead.

There were a few abrasions.

It's like a bump.

In order to attract Nangong Xue's attention, Xue Mu deliberately said: "Yes, is there anything else she found on her face besides rouge?" ”

Nangong Xue shook her head: "Other than that, it doesn't seem to be." ”

Immediately, she took another look.

It was also this glance that made Nangong Xue discover the slight bruise on her forehead.

She looked closely, and noticed that the scar was still green, like moss.

"It seems that when I committed suicide by jumping into a well, I bumped into the well." Nangong Xue explained.

Xue Mu also felt like it.

It's just that his speculation is more inclined to be that someone pushed her from behind and fell in, which caused her forehead to bump.

However, the most important thing now is to ask the people the palace girl has been with before.

So Nangong Xue and Xue Mu walked out.

Gonggong Cao recalled: "This palace maid's name is Xiao Wu, and the palace she entered last year was the laundry maid in Xin's library, and there were two or three palace maids with her, and the old slave will take you there." ”

"By the way, Gonggong Cao, are the palace maids and eunuchs who died in the cat demon incident also in the morgue?" Xue Mu suddenly asked.

"Yes." Gonggong Cao nodded.

Nangong Xue immediately asked, "Then can you take us to see it?" ”

Speaking of this, Grandpa Cao was a little hesitant.

Xue Mu saw that he looked stunned, so he asked, "What's wrong?" Father-in-law Cao. ”

Father-in-law Cao explained embarrassedly: "We didn't take this seriously before, so the original body, the old slave didn't know where it was, and it was possible that it had been transported away." ”

"In that case, forget it." Nangong Xue saw that it was getting late, so she said: "Otherwise, let's go to Xinzhiku tomorrow and ask about those palace maids, Gonggong Cao, you have also worked hard." ”

"Don't tight, don't tight." Father-in-law Cao hurriedly explained.

He then looked at the two: "Then the two adults, the old slave will take you out of the palace first." ”

Nangong Xue wanted to nod, but suddenly thought of something.

After some struggle, he finally said: "Gonggong Cao, I want to go and see Mu Guifei Niangniang." ”

"Okay." Gonggong Cao naturally knew the relationship between Mu Guifei and Nangong Xue, and hurriedly agreed: "Then the old slave will take you there." ”

"No need." Nangong Xue explained: "I know the way to Mu Guifei's mother's bedroom, so I don't bother Grandpa Cao, Grandpa Cao is also working hard today." ”

"It's not hard, it's not hard, I hope the two adults can figure out the case of the cat demon as soon as possible, the people in our palace have been more or less affected, so please leave it to the two adults." Gonggong Cao said happily.

In this way, Grandpa Cao left.

After he left, Xue Mu deliberately asked, "Lord Nangong, are you going to find Mu Guifei Niangniang?" ”

"Hmm." Nangong Xue responded, and then she also looked at Xue Mu and explained: "Mu Guifei Niangniang is my aunt, if you are not in a hurry to go back, you can go to her with me." ”

"Okay."

Xue Mu replied very happily.

Nangong Xue took him and walked in the direction of Penglai Palace.

On the way there, Nangong Xue was a little curious.

found that Xue Mu didn't ask too much about himself and Mu Guifei.

This also made Nangong Xue feel that Xue Mu was a person who knew the size.

Don't ask what you shouldn't.

But what she didn't know was that Xue Mu had long been aware of the relationship between the two of them.

even figured out her aunt's bottom.

Now, her aunt is her aunt.

After a short time, they came to the Penglai Palace.

Yun'er outside the hall was very surprised when she saw Nangong Xue and Xue Mu.

She immediately walked into the dormitory and reported to Nangong Wei.

"Niangniang, Sister Xue'er and Master Xue are here." Yun'er stepped forward to explain.

At this time, Nangong Wei was reading a book, she didn't expect Nangong Xue and Xue Mu to come.

And they came together.

So he stood up curiously.

Walk out of the temple.

I haven't reached the entrance of the temple yet.

Nangong Xue and Xue Mu walked in.

At this moment, Nangong Xue's face was slightly red.

She didn't know what she was for.

actually brought Xue Mu to his aunt.

Isn't this something that is confirmed in a way?

Nangong Wei was also happy when she saw her niece, so she stepped forward and asked, "Xue'er, why are you here?" ”

"Today, I was entrusted by Gonggong Cao to come to the palace to investigate the matter of the cat demon." Nangong Xue explained.

"Oh? Cat demon. Nangong Wei was not surprised, she looked at Xue Mu on the side, so she pretended to be puzzled: "Xue'er. This is? ”

Hearing this, Xue Mu naturally understood that Nangong Wei wanted to deliberately ask herself in front of Nangong Xue.

Sure enough, Nangong Xue hurriedly explained: "This is Xue Mu Xue Qianhu of the Divine Capture Division. ”

Then she also introduced Nangong Wei to Xue Mu: "Xue Mu, this is my aunt and Mu Guifei's mother." ”

"Xue Mu has seen the noble concubine." Xue Mu naturally had to do a full set of acts.

Nangong Wei laughed: "It turns out that this is Xue Qianhu, I can't imagine that he is so young and handsome." ”

Yun'er listened to the conversation between the two old foxes on the side, and couldn't help but laugh for a while.

Obviously, both of them have met.

Now I have to pretend that I just saw it.

Only Nangong Xue was left alone in the dark.

Xue Mu looked at Nangong Wei and found that the two aunts and nephews were standing together, but they were somewhat similar.

Above all, there is absolutely no ambiguity where it should be.

It seems that the bloodline of the Nangong family is big and long.

looked at the two beauties in front of him, plus a little maid who was still developing.

There was only one man in the entire palace, Xue Mu.

I have to say, it's really a feast for the eyes.

It's a pity that these three women can only watch and can't eat.

Of course, today's trip to the palace is not a loss.

After all, as early as the afternoon, Mo Xi'er had already tasted it.

There is not even a bit left of gnawing on it.

Therefore, Xue Mu's desire at the moment was not so high.

Nangong Wei asked Yun'er to give the two of them a seat, and then explained: "My aunt has also heard about the incident of this cat demon. ”

"Auntie, did you hear the cat meowing too?" Nangong Xue asked.

Nangong Wei shook her head: "I didn't hear it, but Yun'er they heard it." ”

"Mother, when did you hear the cat meow?" Xue Mu then asked.

Nangong Wei looked at Yun'er: "Yun'er, do you remember?" ”

Yun'er thought for a moment and replied, "About ten days ago." ”

Nangong Xue asked again: "Is the deceased found today in the well outside the Penglai Palace?" ”

Nangong Wei nodded: "Yes, a palace maid of Xinzhiku." ”

"Auntie, do you know her?"

"I don't know."

"Where's Yun'er?"

Yun'er shook her head: "Yun'er doesn't know either." ”

Nangong Xue was also puzzled, but she didn't think too much, she told Nangong Wei and said, "Auntie, try to stay in the dormitory these days, don't go out, be careful of danger." ”

Nangong Wei said calmly: "Don't worry, few people from my Penglai Hall come here." ”

"Why did the palace maid of the Xinzhiku die by throwing herself into a well outside your palace?" Nangong Xue asked rhetorically.

Nangong Wei came to her and poked lightly with her fingers: "Okay, you Xue'er, you will teach your aunt a lesson, right?" ”

Nangong Xue said expressionlessly: "In short, you are careful in the palace, I don't want to hear the news of your accident the next time I enter the palace." ”

"Bah, you crow's mouth." Nangong Wei frowned.

Xue Mu watched the two aunts and nephews sing and harmonize on the side, but he also found it interesting.

Compared with Nangong Xue's indifference, Nangong Wei was a lot more enthusiastic.

Maybe it was too long, and Nangong Xue proposed to leave.

Nangong Wei said: "Xue Mu, you stay for a while, I'll talk to you about something." ”

Nangong Xue was a little puzzled, she turned her head to look at Nangong Wei, not knowing what her aunt wanted to do.

Nangong smiled: "Xue'er, you go to the outside of the hall and wait first." ”

"Why? What are you going to say to him? Nangong Xue frowned.

Nangong Wei looked like a sellout: "I won't tell you." ”

"Just don't say it." Nangong Xue didn't care, and walked out of the palace directly to wait.

Nangong Wei glanced at Yun'er, and Yun'er naturally understood.

Soon, only Nangong Wei and Xue Mu were left in the palace.

"Xue Mu."

"I don't know if Niangniang left Xue Mu down, do you have any entrustment?" Xue Mu asked.

Nangong Wei changed her relaxed appearance just now, but said with a serious face: "If you can't find out the mastermind behind the cat demon incident, then don't investigate it again." ”

"Why?" Xue Mu was a little puzzled.

Nangong Wei explained: "You don't need to ask more about this matter, as long as you can't find out, then immediately ask the queen for the crime, she will not punish you." ”

Although Xue Mu didn't understand why Nangong Wei wanted to remind him like this?

But he knew that she, as Nangong Xue's aunt, would definitely not frame Nangong Xue.

So Xue Mu also nodded and said, "Don't worry, Niangniang, I will definitely remember it." ”

"Hmm." Nangong Wei was also very satisfied: "You performed well today, you didn't show your feet just now, Xue'er shouldn't know, I have known you for a long time." ”

Xue Mu smiled: "Sister Xue'er is probably still worried about the safety of her mother." ”

"Her Nizi, heartless." Nangong Wei sighed: "By the way, you must protect her safety, and you yourself must be more careful, you know?" Don't think the palace is safe, it's even more dangerous than the outside. ”

"Xue Mu listens to Niangniang's teachings." Xue Mu said immediately.

"Okay, you go out quickly, or that Nizi will be cranky." Nangong Wei urged.

"Yes! Empress. Xue Mu was about to leave.

Nangong Wei thought of something and wanted to hold him.

Instead, they grabbed his hand.

However, Nangong Wei, as Xue Mu's aunt, naturally didn't think too much.

Instead, he took out two jade pendants from his body, and said to Xue Mu: "There are two jade pendants here, which can ward off evil spirits, one for you and one for Xue'er." ”

"This" Xue Mu felt that it was a little expensive, and hurriedly said: "Niangniang, if you don't give it to Sister Xue'er, I won't need it." ”

"What did you say?" Nangong Wei said seriously: "You two have to be good, and you can spread in the future, Xue'er will ask you." ”

As she spoke, she also patted Xue Mu's hand.

I have to say that Nangong Wei's hands are very tender.

It's even a little more tender than Nangong Xue.

is worthy of being a woman in the palace.

Naturally, it is necessary to take good care of it.

Xue Mu pretended to excuse himself.

But Nangong Wei still put the jade pendant on his body.

"Let's go, stay safe."

"Yes, sissy."

Xue Mu left.

In the process of leaving, Nangong Wei looked at his back from behind.

I have to say that if she didn't know that Xue Mu was blind, she would even feel that she was no different from a normal person.

"I really hope that he is a normal person, so that Xue'er can also have a good home." Nangong Wei sighed.

Walking out of the palace, Nangong Xue looked at Xue Mu.

"Sister Xue'er, let's go."

"Hmm."

At first, Nangong Xue ignored it and kept walking in the direction of the city gate.

But later, she finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked Xue Mudao, "What did my aunt do with you just now?" ”

"Just now Niangniang said that if you can't find the mastermind behind the cat demon incident, then don't investigate it anymore, and honestly go to the queen mother to confess." Xue Mu replied.

Nangong Xue was a little puzzled after hearing this: "If that's the case, why do you want to talk to you alone?" ”

"This"

Xue Mu naturally wouldn't tell Nangong Xue that Nangong Wei still wanted to let herself go out with her, right?

So he also took out two jade pendants from his arms and said, "This is given to me by the mother, one for you, to ward off evil spirits." ”

"Always believe in these things." Although Nangong Xue complained, she still put away the jade pendant.

Then she asked Xue Mu again: "Nothing but these?" ”

"Nope."

Xue Mu shook his head.

Seeing this, Nangong Xue stopped asking.

It wasn't until she walked out of the palace and returned to the Divine Capture Division that she said to Xue Mu: "I'm afraid this matter is not simple, let's focus on Huang Haigui first, and be sure to find out the ghosts in the criminal department." ”

"Okay, everything is subject to Sister Xue'er's arrangement."

"Okay, it's not too early, you can go back and rest quickly." Nangong Xue was worried that it was getting late, so she asked, "Do you want me to send you back, it's late at night." ”

Xue Mu laughed: "Sister Xue'er, this night is not deep, I can't see clearly, walking by feeling, it's all the same." ”

"Okay."

Nangong Xue wanted to speak and stopped, and finally walked into the Divine Capture Division.

Xue Mu naturally wouldn't let Nangong Xue send him back.

After all, he is a big man who will not encounter anything on the street, but she is different as a woman.

I finally got back home.

On this day, there are a lot of things.

Xue Mu felt that he could finally rest.

Unexpectedly, I just walked in with my front foot.

He heard Xu Ruyan's voice: "Mu Lang, Sister Leng is gone." ”

As soon as these words came out, Xue Mu's nerves tensed again.
