Chapter 20: Inspection!
Zhong Zihong pondered for a long time before he spoke, "This is an object that looks a bit like the Shura Palace, what do you think?"
"It's very similar, but it's really intriguing how this came into the hands of this person. Situ Lin's expression was solemn, this Shura Hall has always been willing to stop only after receiving the task and completing it, if this group of assassins is really a subordinate of the Shura Palace, this matter is not simple.
"You don't have to be here, you are not allowed to step out of the courtyard half a step back to the Fuyuan Courtyard. Zhong Zihong knew that this matter was very important, not just as simple as the attack on his beloved daughter, so he sent Lin Yue and Zhong Qinghe away and issued a grounding order.
Lin Yue deduced from the conversation between the two that they were safe in this matter, so she no longer defended, pulled Zhong Qinghe and quickly exited Tingxue Pavilion.
Along the way, Zhong Qinghe held Lin Yue's hand tightly, and it was not until she returned to the Fuyuan Courtyard to take a stick of incense that she calmed down her emotions a little, and at this time her dress was already wet.
"Mother, what's going on? Did you say that my father found something?" Zhong Qinghe's face was full of panic, and he trembled and poured himself a cup of tea to calm his nervous emotions.
Lin Yue is not much better, she has seen that jade plate, and now this is on the dead He Liu, and it was also found that she did not expect, fortunately, this jade plate was not found in her own place, she could have blamed everything on that He Liu's head, she made up her mind Seeing Zhong Qinghe so frightened, she couldn't help frowning, and sighed heavily, "Don't be nervous, it's just a brand, now that everyone is dead, we won't have anything, don't be so nervous so as not to arouse suspicion." ”
The daughter naturally knows not to panic, but the eyes of the son and the father are too terrible. Zhong Qinghe poured a few sips of warm tea, which calmed his mood a little.
Lin Yue immediately got up and rummaged through the dressing box, "Qinghe, you put this away, don't have any conflicts with that side from now on, you must show that you don't understand." And this, you will send someone to Xinxue Courtyard early tomorrow morning. Saying that, Lin Yue handed over a pair of ice seed heads to Zhong Qinghe's hands.
Zhong Qinghe took the head and was full of displeasure in her heart, but she knew that the current situation was not the time for her to have a seizure, "Why should such a precious head face be given to that cheap ......" She realized that she had said the wrong thing before the word "cheap" came to her mouth, and immediately changed her words, "Isn't it a waste to give her this?"
"You don't understand, this head was originally the dead Feng Tianxue's, this one came out from that side, looking at the situation, that side is bound to go back, and now we take the initiative to send a little over, so more is left in our hands." Lin Yue's eyes were full of shrewd calculation and reluctance.
She had never seen this head before, and she didn't dare to wear it on weekdays, but she would show it off on some special occasions. In order to keep more, she had to take out this head and return it to Zhong Li.
Zhong Qinghe stared at the head in his hand, cursing Zhong Li countless times in his heart, if it weren't for her, this head would have belonged to her, "Mother, Qinghe knows what to do." But why did you say that my father told us not to step out of the Hibiscus Courtyard?"
"This ...... It should be something said over there, and then there is tonight, we shouldn't go to the study, and go directly to Xinxue Courtyard, now that the wood is in the boat, let's take a step at a time. Lin Yue was still calm, speculating on what Zhong Li said before they arrived, "The people who died this time are basically the ones who have been arranged in the past over the years, it seems that she is borrowing a knife to kill people, count her fate This time it is fine! ”
"Where do you start? You didn't make me ...... Why do you say that she will never be so lucky again?" Zhong Qinghe asked with some puzzlement.
Lin Yue smiled mysteriously and said softly, "You also heard it before, that jade plaque is a token of the Shura Palace. If I hadn't heard your father say, I wouldn't have known that they still have such rules. ”
Zhong Qinghe heard his mother say this, and immediately woke up, "In that case, why do you want me to please her?" The tone was full of confusion and complaint, "If this is really the case, your daughter will be so close to her in the future, and you are not afraid that something will happen to your daughter?"
"Don't worry, you'll never be fine, the only person I paid to kill was Zhong Li. So many people died today, and it was also the sudden loud noise, and they probably killed for fear of being exposed. Lin Yue patted Zhong Qinghe's hand and comforted softly.
Zhong Qinghe thought about it and finally decided to approach Zhong Li according to what Lin Yue said, because they were frightened and scared for half the night, they were really sleepy, and they quickly rested.
Xinxue Courtyard was full of white flags at this time, and Zhong Li solemnly burned incense and worshipped, "Today, you gave your life for me Zhong Li, it is me Zhong Li who owes you a debt, I hereby swear that I will thoroughly investigate this matter and never let you wait for death." ”
"There is Lao Shizi here tonight, and I have some questions that I can't figure out about tonight. Especially this jade plaque, can you please tell the prince in detail?" Zhong Li stood up after worshipping, and looked at Situ Lin and Zhong Zihong with a solemn face.
Zhong Zihong couldn't bear Zhong Li staying up all night like this, "Li'er, you are injured and frightened, rest tonight, we will discuss this matter tomorrow." ”
"My father reminded me that it was dark tonight, and I really shouldn't bother the world anymore. Zhong Li once again thanked Shizi for his rescue, and Zhong Li must go to Lingwangfu to thank him in person another day. Zhong Li also knew that it was late, and he no longer asked for detailed talks, and bowed slightly to Situ Lin and Zhong Zihong.
"Situ must be waiting for Miss Zhong to come at the house, and it is too late for Miss Zhong to rest early and take her leave. Situ Lin took a deep look at Zhong Li, and then said goodbye.
After Zhong Zihong and Situ Lin left, Zhong Li asked Du Juan to go down to rest first, and entered the Tingxue Pavilion alone, carefully examining the body of the man in black. Half an hour later, she finished the inspection, took a pen and paper and carefully transcribed the situation of the inspection, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
The fatal injuries on the bodies of these killers were all caused by fighting, but the strange thing was that there were no traces on their bodies that could prove their identity, and the jade plate did not seem to be complete, so who would the other half be? Lin Yue did not panic too much when she saw the jade plate, but the fleeting uneasiness was indeed in her eyes. There is also Zhong Qinghe's reaction, although it is no different from before, but if Lin Yue hadn't stopped her in time, what kind of words she would have said is unknown.
Zhong Li also carefully examined the corpses of the maids and soldiers in the courtyard, they were all sealed with a sword, and there was a slender wound on the neck, and the blood at the wound was black and smelly, obviously the sword was quenched with poison.
