Three days later, in the morning, Bai Qiurui was dressed in a pink and white brocade cardigan skirt, her red lips were not stained with lipstick but were ruddy and attractive, her delicate eyebrows were like the light mist of distant mountains, and her long hair was only swayed with a pearl and jade begonia.

Fresh and smart, the slender waist is full of hand, just standing there, it has already pressed countless flowers.

"Kitsune!"

Bai Yueyue looked at Bai Qiurui dressed up so well today, and cursed secretly.

For the spring banquet, she asked people to prepare the most fashionable clothes in the capital, and the color is also the most eye-catching hundred butterfly skirts. In order to set off this beautiful dress, she found her most expensive jewelry to bring on.

However, it still allowed Bai Qiurui, a fox, to steal the limelight.

She is the most favored lady in the house, even if she dresses better than Bai Qiurui, her complexion is still slightly inferior after all.

This is to blame for this foxy mother, who was born with a charming fox, and the mother and daughter are all the way!

Bai Qiurui naturally felt a strong dissatisfied gaze on her body, and she didn't have to think about it to know who it was.

There were only three people going to attend the spring banquet in King Ning's Mansion today, and Xiao Mingyu was talking to himself. The owner of that sight, except for Bai Yueyue, has no second.

"Sister, you look so good today!"

Xiao Mingyu looked at Bai Qiurui and admired it from the bottom of her heart.

Bai Qiurui smiled when she heard this, in fact, today's dress was not her own meaning. Everything was because of his mother-in-law, Liu, as soon as she heard that she was going to the palace to attend a banquet, she was caught in a beating.

The ear told her to behave safely and not to collide with people, and she chattered in her ear for three days, making Bai Qiurui smile bitterly.

However, she can also understand her mother's thoughts. As a concubine, this kind of chance of appearing in front of all the ladies is equal to zero. Now that she can go to a county lord's spring banquet, it is pie in the sky, and the Liu family is naturally overjoyed.

Bai Qiurui thought about the events of the previous days, and was thinking about Xiao Mingyu's words, but heard an arrogant female voice speak first.

"Humph! What's the use of dressing up beautifully, and I don't look at my identity, whether I deserve to be in this outfit. ”

Bai Qiurui looked at Bai Yueyue with her hands around her chest, and walked towards her with a high look.

The other party had resentment in his eyes, staring straight at himself, eager to swallow himself alive.

I saw Bai Yueyue standing still in front of Bai Qiurui, and continued: "Do you think that if you dress up and seduce people's hearts, you can fly on the branches and become a phoenix?" The limelight isn't something you can just come up with. ”

At this moment, no one else was there, and Xiao Mingyu automatically retreated to the side because of Bai Yueyue's sharp look.

Bai Qiurui and Bai Yueyue were very close to each other, so naturally there was no need to pretend at this moment.

"My sister is thinking too much, and today in terms of dressing, my sister is still the most beautiful and luxurious."

Bai Qiurui looked at Bai Yueyue with a business-style smile on her face: "My sister's jewelry from head to toe is only one step, and she will never steal the limelight from her sister." ”

"You're ......!"

"Besides, my sister is the same as my sister today, representing the face of the Bai family of Shaoqing of Dali Temple. I just look forward to going to King Ning's Mansion together today, so as not to lose the number of family courtesies. ”

After these words, Bai Yueyue was blocked. She choked her chest in one breath and couldn't have another seizure.

At the end, she gritted her teeth and said, "I naturally know what to do, and I don't need you to mention it!" ”

While they were talking, the carriage for the three of them had arrived. The group got into the car one after another and went straight to Ning Wangfu.

Along the way, Bai Qiurui ignored Bai Yueyue's provocations from time to time. She sat in the window compartment, closing her eyes and thinking about the current situation of the ghost soldier murder case.

In the past three days, another person has died, and the Criminal Department and Dali Temple can't suppress the news, and at this moment the people of Kyoto are discussing this matter after tea and dinner.

When the emperor found out, he was very worried, and repeatedly put pressure on the Criminal Department and Dali Temple. In the past few days, my father has been under great pressure, and he has been going to the criminal department all day to discuss the case with Shen Yuan.

Bai Qiurui has always been worried that her father goes to the criminal department every day, and Shen Yuan will not tell him about his trip to the lake that day. But for three days, my father returned home to worry about the case, and there was nothing wrong with him, let alone anything wrong with the lake.

This series of events shows that Shen Yuan did not tell his father about the trip to the lake that day.

Although Bai Qiurui was curious about Shen Yuan's actions, she couldn't guess what he was thinking. However, since he concealed this matter for himself, he did let himself breathe a sigh of relief invisibly.

If you really let your father know, you really can't think of good words for a while.

Even the Criminal Department and Dali Temple have just learned about the case, but one of their daughters' family got the news at the same time as them, and they may know it earlier than them.

If you talk about this, Bai Qiurui is afraid that it will be a direct disaster.

In the past three days, she also went to the study from time to time to have a look, and listened to some of the latest information about the case.

The fourth newly slain man was no longer a court official, and he was no longer a man. The identity of the deceased is actually a prostitute, named Yingchun, and now Congliang is the concubine of Feng Bochao, the servant of the ministry.

If it weren't for the fact that the murderer behind the scenes had the same method of killing, he cut off his head, and there was also a dagger fragment left on the corpse. Bai Qiurui even suspected that the dead had nothing to do with the first three court officials who were killed.

For this reason, Bai Qiurui also specially asked Bai Hong, and determined that the murderer's target was the prostitute Yingchun rather than the servant Feng Bochao, and the answer was affirmative.

After a few days of inspection, the fragments of the daggers proposed by Bai Qiurui have already been revealed.

Shen Yuan took the fragments of the four daggers and asked the most famous swordsmith in Kyoto, and the other party said that according to the overall shape and material of the dagger fragments, they should belong to the same short dagger.

Moreover, judging from the length of the dagger fragments, the four fragments have now been assembled into the part of the dagger blade in the previous section.

Only the last handle part is missing!

This made Bai Qiurui have a faint bad premonition, she always felt that the few fragments deliberately left by the murderer were indicating that he was going to kill five people.

The last hilt may be the last person to die.

The moment the hilt appears to merge with the four dagger fragments in front of it, will it be the final ending?

Meng Beihe, what exactly does he want to do?

Bai Hong and Shen Yuan are blind without a goal, and Bai Qiurui has a goal but can't say it, the two are diametrically opposed.

She is now trying to protect herself first, she can't push herself into danger for the sake of this case. Therefore, even if she has the heart to help, it seems that she really can't intervene.

originally thought that this case, I could help my father figure out the key to solving the case, but now it seems that it is unlikely.

"Hey, look, King Ning's Mansion has arrived!"

Hearing Xiao Mingyu's happy business beside her, Bai Qiurui came back to her senses. Looking sideways, he saw that he was indeed outside the gate of King Ning's Mansion.

Xiao Mingyu is about the same as Bai Qiurui, as the third lady of the concubine, she is not taken seriously at home. Today, I can go out to participate in the spring banquet held by the county lord of Muhe, and I am looking out of the carriage all the way.

She was the first to find the palace, and the whole person was excited, and a blush appeared on her little face.

"This is in the palace, which is not as good as in his own house, cousin Mingyu should pay more attention to her words and deeds, don't lose her proportions."

Bai Yueyue said a word without being salty, and got out of the carriage first.

Xiao Mingyu was blocked by these yin and yang strange words, and her delicate little face was stunned for a moment. It wasn't until Bai Qiurui shook her that she came back to her senses, closed her mouth in silence and got out of the carriage.

Today's Ning Wangfu is particularly lively, and Bai Qiurui followed Bai Yueyue to the gate of the palace. She climbed the stairs step by step, and as soon as she looked up, she found someone she couldn't have imagined.

Shen Yuan!

At this time, Bai Qiurui's whole person is not good.

How can you meet this person everywhere?

I saw that Shen Yuan happened to come out of the palace, and Bai Qiurui was already standing at the threshold of the palace, and when she looked up, the two happened to walk opposite each other.

Today, he is still wearing a regular robe, a white brocade robe, a goose-yellow palace silk around his waist, and dark gold black boots. It looks like it is majestic and graceful.

Xiao Mingyu, who was following beside her, was already shy, and looked away and quietly looked at it secretly.

Standing face to face, Bai Qiurui didn't have the slightest thought of her little daughter's family in her heart. She was holding a fire in her heart at the moment, and she had suppressed the fire for three days.

She used to stay alone in the small courtyard of the mansion, and in her heart, Shen Yuan was tempting herself, in addition to the inevitable anger, she was more afraid and worried.

She was afraid that Shen Yuan would say it, and she didn't know what would happen to her when the time came.

And now, Shen Yuan is standing alive in front of him. The anger in Bai Qiurui's heart came up all of a sudden, and she steadily overwhelmed the fear and worry in her heart.

She met Shen Yuan's dark and deep eyes, and the atmosphere in her heart was aggrieved. Shui Bo's clear eyes pretended to glare at him fiercely, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and his delicate white cheeks puffed up slightly, showing that he was demonstrating.

Shen Yuan's expression was slightly stunned, and for some reason, he seemed to understand the little girl's mind when his eyes met.

She's angry?

In just a moment, their eyes met, and although Shen Yuan understood the meaning of Bai Qiurui's eyes, he didn't have the extra heart to care about such a trivial matter at this moment.

Today is the day when Lord Muhe holds a spring banquet, and this little girl can only come to the banquet.

But......

She shouldn't have come to today's banquet!

Bai Qiurui met Shen Yuan's gaze, and after glaring at him angrily, she suddenly noticed that something was wrong with Shen Yuan's expression.

The other party kept looking at him, his brows furrowed, as if he had discovered something serious.

Now Bai Qiurui was a little afraid, shouldn't this Lord Shen feel suspicious and suspect that he had something to do with this case? That's why he looked at himself like this, and wanted to arrest himself back to the criminal department for interrogation?
