After entering the study, Bai Qiurui first confessed her guilt, saying that she didn't mean to disturb her father, but just thought that he hadn't eaten yet, so she made some food and sent it.

Before Bai Hong could open his mouth, Bai Qiurui put the food box on the table and took the lead in opening the lid of the food box.

Suddenly, a burst of delicious aroma of chicken soup wafted out, mixed with the unique aroma of shiitake mushrooms, and filled the entire study room in an instant.

Bai Hong took a deep breath, and his stomach contracted uncontrollably at this moment, reminding him that it was time to eat.

Bringing out the steaming silver silk chicken noodle soup and placing it on the table, Bai Qiurui had a very concerned face, and asked Bai Hong to eat a little bit so as not to hurt himself.

Bai Hong looked at the food on the table, it was something he had never seen before, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

Curious: "What is this?" ”

Bai Qiurui couldn't help but smile softly: "Daddy will taste it first, but it's still up to your appetite." ”

Seeing that his daughter sold Guanzi, Bai Hong became a little curious. It happened that he was also a little hungry, so he didn't refuse anymore, walked to the table and sat down and took a bite of the bowl.

The noodles picked up by chopsticks are slender and snow-white, as the name suggests, and the shape is as smooth as silver threads. The mellow chicken soup is infused with the deliciousness of shiitake mushroom foam.

In the mouth, the noodles are smooth and tender, soft and chewy, and you can't stop eating one bite.

The rich aroma of the chicken soup is enhanced by the freshness of shiitake mushrooms, and the smooth silver noodles fully absorb the umami of the soup. Bai Hong had unconsciously eaten half of it, and the troubled thoughts in his heart before had also subsided because of this delicious noodle.

It wasn't until Bai Hong drank up the whole bowl of noodles and even the soup that Bai Qiurui explained to him that the food he made was called 'soup cakes', but it was made from white noodles.

Bai Hong was amazed when he heard it, and he also dissipated Bai Qiurui's anger at breaking into the study before.

"Daddy just left in a hurry, and Uncle Li said that you don't see anyone in the study. The daughter is bold, but has something happened to her father? ”

Of course, Bai Qiurui knew what her father was worried about, but she couldn't say it clearly, so she had to ask with a clear and confused face.

Bai Hong sighed when he heard this. The brow stretched slightly, and then furrowed tightly.

He glanced at Bai Qiurui, but in the end he was just silent and didn't say anything.

Bai Qiu was a little anxious when he saw this, could this case be extremely important and widely implicated? That's why Daddy doesn't even want to reveal it?

That's how it can be good.

For a long time, Bai Qiurui hadn't thought of a suitable word, but she saw her father sigh again.

"Well, you can't hide this if you want to."

Bai Qiurui's face was happy, there was a door!

Immediately afterwards, Bai Hong talked about the ghost soldier murder case that Bai Qiurui knew about, but what she didn't expect was that just this morning, another court official died.

Bai Qiurui inquired and learned that it was one of the six departments, Wailang, a member of the household department, who was killed, and the same head was lost.

In just a few days, three court officials have died. Bai Qiurui glanced at her father's solemn expression, and knew his difficulties somewhat.

The murderer behind the scenes killed three people in a row, but as a criminal officer, he was unable to arrest the murderer. Whether it is public or private, it is enough to make Bai Hong worried, and Shen Yuan is the same now.

Next, Bai Hong said some details of the case, and according to the actual scene inspection, the three officials who were killed all left an identical token.

"A fragment of a dagger?"

Bai Qiurui was stunned, judging from the real murderer found out at the end of the original book, Meng Beihe, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, should not have anything to do with swords.

Why did he kill someone, but left strange dagger fragments on all three.

What is he trying to express?

Bai Qiurui heard her father's narration that this was a case of serial murder. The three court officials who were killed were all cut throats by sharp blades and died of excessive blood loss.

The people behind the scenes use ghost soldiers to disturb people's hearts and commit murder every night. Aside from the three dagger fragments left behind, there were no other clues available.

What is also strange is that the three officials who were killed were all men with heads and faces. On the night of the accident, no one heard even a scream on the street.

Most difficult to detect is that there appears to be no connection between the three slain officials. In other words, no one dares to guarantee whether the murderer behind the scenes will continue to kill, and there is no way to know who will kill next.

If you don't know the target of the person behind the killing, you can't take precautions in advance. Bai Hong said that in one day at most, the news of this case will not be sealed.

Bai Qiurui also fell silent after listening, although she took the lead in knowing the plot in the book in advance, but there were too few details about this case in the book. The main plot description leans towards a spring banquet held by Han Chengyu, the princess of the reign prince Ning Wang, not long after.

In the book, the original owner's lingering sickbed naturally couldn't go to the spring banquet, and all the good things were snatched by Bai Yueyue.

However, although the original owner did not go to the spring banquet this time, it allowed her to meet her future husband.

That day, the original owner's health had just improved, and he wanted to take Lan'er out for a walk. Who knew that it was this inadvertently wandering around the mansion that made her meet Zhou Huaiyuan, the second son of the Pingyuan Houfu of the Dynasty.

The two had a good impression of each other when they met, and they slowly came together in the future. It's a pity that Bai Yueyue was jealous of the original body, pretending to be weak with green tea, and all kinds of means finally made Zhou Huaiyuan take the lead.

Bai Qiurui thought about it, this was originally focused on the plot direction of the heroine, and the abbreviation of the rest of the case was understandable. It's just that most of them are writing that Princess Ning held a spring banquet, and now she wants to find some clues about the case, but it is difficult.

Bai Qiurui sighed, and quickly left the spring banquet behind her mind, thinking about how to find out the law of the murderer behind the scenes.

In other words, it is imperative to find out what the three slain officials have in common. In this way, we can be sure that we will capture them in one fell swoop before the next attack.

The only common denominator that I knew now was the fragment of the dagger left at the scene, and Bai Qiurui's eyes suddenly lit up.

She looked at Bai Hong and suggested, "Daddy, let's not check what is the difference between this dagger fragment?" The three officials all left this fragment on their bodies, perhaps this has another meaning. ”

Bai Hong was a little surprised when he heard this, and he said, "Rui'er, I didn't expect you and Lord Shen to think of the same place, and he said the same thing yesterday. ”

Bai Qiurui sighed in her heart, Shen Yuan's thoughts were indeed meticulous, and he had already imagined the key point.

It's just that remembering such an important news that there were dagger fragments left at the scene of the murder, he didn't mention it to himself on Qianbo Lake, Bai Qiurui felt a little angry in his heart.

Wait a minute!

She suddenly thought of a possibility!

At the moment when the thought came out, Bai Qiurui's face turned pale, and her fingertips couldn't help but feel cold.

Shen Yuan, he did it on purpose!

I used the identity of the second lady of the Shaoqing Mansion of Dali Temple to inquire about the ghost soldier murder case. Therefore, Shen Yuan deliberately wanted to test himself, so he deliberately concealed the most critical point and did not disclose it.

If he really learned about the case from his father Bai Hong, he would inevitably talk about the important tokens left at the scene, and he would never say a word.

Shen Yuan was actually testing himself!

He deliberately left this trap and just waited for himself to drill it!

Thinking of this, Bai Qiurui's head 'buzzed', and the whole person was a little confused.

It was because he was too careless and underestimated Shen Yuan's thoughts. can become one of the six departments of the Central Committee of the Criminal Department at a young age, how can he really rely only on his ability to solve cases that is different from ordinary people. If you don't have some thoughts, I'm afraid that there will be no bones and dregs left that have been eaten a long time ago.

Right now, I'm afraid that Shen Yuan already knows that she lied to him, what should she do now?

"What's the matter, suddenly your face is so bad?"

Bai Hong saw that Bai Qiurui didn't speak for a long time, and when he looked up, the little daughter standing next to him had a pale face and was in a daze.

Bai Qiurui came back to her senses when she heard her father's voice, and said that she was fine. prevaricated that he heard that the three officials of the court had been beheaded, and he was a little scared when he thought about that scene.

After speaking, I saw Bai Hong smiling, and joked that I thought she was very bold, and she talked about the case with herself without changing her face.

I didn't want to, but I was scared, but it was too late, and the youngest daughter's family still knew that I was afraid.

Bai Qiurui couldn't cry or laugh, so she could only smile reluctantly.

Is Daddy saying that his reflex arc is long?

Hiding the reason why he was in a daze, he saw Bai Hong as if he had suddenly thought of something, and opened his mouth while lowering his head to rummage through the cabinet.

"Oh, yes! Three days later, the county lord of Muhe of the Ning Wangfu will hold a 'spring banquet' in the mansion."

Bai Qiurui saw that her father took out a hairpin invitation card and handed it to herself, and took it to see that it was an invitation post from King Ning's Mansion Mu and the county lord.

I only heard Bai Hong say again: "Now Yueyue and Chu Chu have accidentally fallen into the water, and they are in poor health, and only Rui'er and Mingyu can go to the mansion." ”

How dare you release pigeons in the county lord's post, you have to go anyway. Bai Qiurui actually didn't want to participate in this so-called 'spring banquet' in her heart, but now she had to go.

Now there are no further clues in the case, even if Bai Qiurui knows that the person behind the scenes is Meng Beihe, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, he can't directly stand up and identify it without evidence. can only respond to the 'spring banquet' explained by his father, and retire with a blessed body.

The spring banquet held by the lord of Muhe County was actually the meaning of the princess in the original book, which was intended to choose a good family affair for the prince of the palace. Therefore, we specially sent out invitations and invited the official ladies of all the appropriate ages in Beijing.

The original plot should have been that Bai Yueyue occupied the post alone and went to the meeting alone. In this situation, Bai Qiurui is a little funny when she thinks about it.

The situation between himself and Bai Yueyue, somehow, was reversed by mistake.

The people who went to the meeting became themselves, and the people who couldn't get up from the bed became Bai Yueyue.

For this banquet, Bai Hong specially arranged for someone to come over and cut new clothes for Bai Qiurui and Xiao Mingyu.

The Li family has been busy taking care of Bai Yueyue, even if he doesn't like it, he knows that this represents the face of his house, so he has to swallow this breath with hatred.

However, Bai Yueyue is not a tolerant person. She knew about the spring banquet, and she insisted on begging Li and Bai Hong to go to the banquet as well.

Bai Qiurui didn't say anything when she knew, but let Xiao Chuchu, who was also lying on the bed, know, and secretly scolded Bai Yueyue for deliberately pulling herself into the water to monopolize this invitation.
