Liu Ya listened to her with a momentum like a tiger, and every word was finished in layers, and she didn't know whether to laugh or be annoyed.

"I said Willow would find out. Mo Kaichan muttered.

Mo Qiutong said timidly, "We don't want to keep it a secret from my sister and Brother Zhiyu, we just want to tell you later." ”

Liu Ya sighed, "You guys. ”

"If anything happens, you should tell us as soon as possible, will it disappear if you hide it like this?" Jiang Zhiyu said.

Jiang Zhihua pouted and said, "Aunt Jiang has already entered the palace to greet Concubine He." ”

"She Qiu Liying is barefoot, how can she be afraid that those of us who wear shoes will be the birthday banquet of Feng Zhaoyi, who is a favorite, tomorrow, and Queen Fan's dissatisfaction will not be vented on He Guifei and Princess Jin?" Jiang Zhiyu reproached.

"Well, they have a plan to calculate. Liu Ya saw Jiang Zhihua lowered her head guiltily, and pulled Jiang Zhiyu's arm and said, "I heard that after He Xiaomei was frightened when she was six years old, the girl who could talk became mute, and she convulsed all over her body when she saw blood, and she was afraid that it was the mental damage caused by the fright. ”

Regardless of whether Jiang Zhihua had told those nobles about Ruan Youyi and King Ye at the beginning, after the quarrel between her and Ruan Youyi, she must have a part of the farce list, and maybe it will be distorted that she instigated the girl from the General's Mansion to beat Qiu Liying.

If you study it carefully, you will be reminded of the contradictions between Ruan Youyi and Liu Ya during the banquet of the Lu State Mansion, and then she was pulled by someone with a heart, Liu Ya sat well at home, and the pot slammed down from the sky, telling her to carry it safely.

Jiang Zhiyu also had the governor so far that it was useless to blame him, so he had to say helplessly, "Go wash your face and come back to eat, the powder on your face will fall into the rice." ”

Jiang Zhihua and Mo Qiutong left obediently.

Liu Ya looked at Mo Kaichan, "How is the injury from being bitten?"

"It's not serious, the imperial doctor has already bandaged it. Mo Kaichan lifted his sleeves to reveal the place that was wrapped in a white bandage and said, "I'll just take some medicine in the original way, they have to wrap it up in a fuss." "He is a martial arts practitioner, and he has also been on the battlefield, and he has never encountered any injuries, so he can't stand the little girl's bite.

"Is He Xiaomei okay?" asked Liu Ya again.

"I took the medicine and fell asleep. Mo Kaichan twisted his eyebrows, "But before she fell ill, I seemed to hear her muttering something 'don't be stupid', and suddenly she said it slurred, and I couldn't hear it clearly when I got close, and I could barely distinguish the syllables, and I couldn't care about taking out my handkerchief when I saw her twitching." ”

Jiang Zhiyu said, "She was lost when she was six years old, and when she was found, she fell in a pool of blood in the broken temple, and she was the only one around, but the blood stains on her body did not belong to her. After a pause, he said, "What did you mean by the mental damage you just talked about?"

"It's a kind of subconscious self-preservation. "It's as if I trusted you so much, but you betrayed me in the most cruel way, and my mind was hurt more than I could bear, subconscious—" She pointed to her brain, In order to protect me, this part of the memory was sealed, and a condition was created where I could easily continue to live, just like a kind of self-deception that escaped to the extreme and never wanted to believe, and blood was a reminder from the outside world, which I did not accept, so the subconscious used convulsions to make repairs for protection. ”

"In other words, He Xiaomei thinks that she can't speak, and if she doesn't mention that lost memory, she can live easily?"

"This kind of mental illness is useless, and the traditional treatment techniques are useless, after all, the bell still needs to be the bell person. Liu Ya said helplessly, she knew that Jiang Zhiyu asked her so much to consult her in disguise if there was a way to treat her, but she had explored a lot of criminal psychology, and spiritual psychology or something was not her professional scope, so she couldn't deal with it in one bite.

"What are you talking about?" At this time, Jiang Zhihua and Mo Qiutong came back, Mo Qiutong asked, there were two scratches of different lengths on the left side of her face, and Jiang Zhihua had a half-knuckle-length scar on the right side of her face, although she reapplied the ointment after removing her makeup, it was still slightly swollen.

"Let's just chat, let's eat. Jiang Zhiyu signaled, and the maids took turns to come in and change the hot rice for them.

**

Following.

At the beginning of the lanterns, they all entered the palace to attend the banquet.

Liu Ya lay down in the quilt and continued to read the book from the Western Desert, called "Those Personas I Passed by", Xu was full and lay down, did not read a few short stories and became sleepy, was hesitating to sleep or not, in front of the courtyard window suddenly exploded a yellow-orange fire.

She was so startled that a carp ran out of bed, pulled on her shoes and rushed out, but as soon as the door opened, she was stunned, only to see the bonfire in the courtyard like a dancing dragon swaying wildly, the flowers and trees in the garden and under the eaves are hung the temple's often used for blessing copper small wind chimes, it is connected with the rectangular wooden sign with the words "peace and joy" hooked with red ribbons, in the cool night breeze wantonly waving.

"Yiyue?" a delicate crescent moon color rolled leisurely down from the eaves.

"Hmm. Liu Ya put her eyes in the courtyard and looked at him in the dust.

"Is it all about enjoying the light?" he asked, smiling infinitely.

Liu Yaxiu raised her eyebrows lightly, "As Feng Zhaoyi's uncle, is it really good that you don't enter the palace for a banquet?"

"She is starry tonight, how can she have any spare time to entertain me, and it is in line with her mind not to go. He grabbed her shoulder with a hippie smile and told her to turn around and face the wing, "Hurry up and put on another cloak, I brought the most characteristic wine and food of Beiyan, and we have a good time catching up." ”

Seeing that he seemed to have a complete plan, Liu Ya had no choice but to go to the inner room and pick up the white cloak that was only resting on the pillow and put it on, before taking a step outside, he suddenly remembered something, and walked to the dresser, opened a small locked cabinet, and put a delicately wrapped light blue handkerchief bag into the hidden bag in his arms.

When I went out again, there was a wooden table and two wooden chairs next to the campfire, and there were a few food boxes on the table that seemed to have just been opened, and there were chopsticks and a few pots of wine on one side.......

He pulled her to sit down, poured her a glass of sweet wine, and sandwiched a dry fried food like a flower with chopsticks.

Liu Ya looked at the floured and fried marigolds in the bowl with only a little salt, picked up the chopsticks in his expectant gaze, and wanted to taste the fried marigolds that looked like dark dishes horizontally and vertically, but after one bite, he was conquered by its crunchy but not greasy and light and refreshing aroma: "Delicious!"

"Taste the wine again. Feng Zhiyang looked at her cute appearance with satisfaction.

Liu Ya picked up the glass of wine again, the sweet taste of wild fruits combined with the thick texture of glutinous rice instantly bloomed in the mouth like fireworks, and the saltiness eaten before raised the sweetness to the extreme: "It's delicious!"

"yes! I thought it was perfect when I first tasted it. Feng Zhiyang lazily sat on the edge of the table with one hand and poured wine for her with the other.

The cold wind of the autumn night seemed to be enthusiastically melted away by the bonfire, sticky to the wind chimes with a beautiful sound like a song, he was half clothed in the moonlight and half bathed in the firelight, like a god from a magical land, and she listened to it with relish and envy, and she was overjoyed.

When Kang Zaizhi came with a few dossiers, he saw that she was smiling like a flower without scruples, and judging from the surrounding atmosphere, he deeply felt that the master of their family had really met a powerful opponent this time, and interrupted their harmonious atmosphere with a light cough, and mocked paradoxically, "Yo, isn't this the famous Phoenix Qilin, I heard that you hid from the Showa Pavilion and went to Beiyan to chase and hide, I didn't expect to see you here!"

"I didn't expect to see you here again since I parted a few years ago. Feng Zhiyang looked him up and down with his plausible appearance and said, "The black and white are quite successful, it looks like he is completely a lackey of King Ye." ”

"......" Liu Ya was first surprised by their acquaintance, and then surprised by the tense relationship, and curious about the story.

"I am indeed inferior to you in terms of reincarnation, but I am better than being born in a family that hides filth and filth, and I am a little bit happier than being born in a family that hides filth and filth, but King Ye will pull me out of the abyss with a little help, and in the future, I will also have time to slowly atone for my sins, and if you want to be saved by anyone, it is not so easy, she-" Kang Yazhi pointed at Liu Ya with his chin, and said meaningfully, "He is a theorist without gray areas." ”

Liu Ya frowned and looked at Kang Zaizhi, who was already approaching, and then looked at Feng Zhiyang, who had a cold expression, but when he saw that the air around him seemed to be quickly pulled away by someone, making people suddenly feel depressed and about to suffocate, Feng Zhiyang turned back to his usual comfortable appearance, and said slowly with a smile, "Only the weak will be eager to be saved, and the strong can usually break free from the cage by themselves." ”

She really didn't want them to use words as swords to crack and rub sparks like lightning and thunder, so she swept to Yasuya and asked, "Aren't you supposed to be busy dealing with serial cases at this time, why did you come here?"

"You were in charge of inspecting the case of the Zhang family's extermination in Yinshao Village before, but now that I find something suspicious, I just want to ask you. ”

Liu Ya blankly motioned for him to ask, but he glanced at Feng Zhiyang meaningfully.

Feng Zhiyang hooked his lips mockingly, and then smiled at Liu Ya, "I'll come to see you another day." ”

"Hmm. Liu Ya hesitated for a moment, but still responded with her jaw, "Thank you for your careful preparation." She smiled back at him.

After Feng Zhiyang left, Kang Zaizhi sat in his place unceremoniously, and then turned the file of the Zhangjia extermination case in Yinshao Village to a suspicious page and handed it to Liu Yadao:

According to the confession of Qiu Bang, the night incense guy, he went to Zhang's house to work when he was busy, and when he was busy working, he heard the screams and quietly approached to check what happened, but he witnessed the process of the murder of the crazy woman Liu Lian, and then fled home in fright and hid, until Du Shizi cleared your grievances and found him to testify. ”

"Your examination records clearly indicate that there are two sets of injuries with different strengths on the corpses, one is accurate and fatal, and the other is brutal and indiscriminate after death, and later through the joint investigation of me and Shi Arrest, I learned that the Zhang family is a trafficker, and through various coincidences, it is speculated that the most likely and most reasonable explanation is to organize the extermination, and it happened that the crazy woman carried a knife and committed another murder, and because there were no other clues to check, the case was closed, and Liu Lian has been imprisoned in the cell of the Daotai Mansion. ”

Liu Ya looked at Qiu Bang's confession that he was referring to, and listened to him again, "Although a normal man will be afraid and panic when he sees such a thing, he subconsciously thinks about reporting the case, right? That is also human life, and he couldn't be sure whether the Zhang family was still alive at that time, but Qiu Bang said more than once that he didn't want to cause trouble, so he was so shocked that he hid home, and even fell ill for several days." ”

"Of course, men also have the right to be afraid of weakness, and we didn't suspect him at the beginning, but now that I think about it, I think it's a little weird, a crazy woman destroys the door, and the door that is destroyed has nothing to do with you, as for the fear of getting sick? If it weren't for Du Shizi to wash away your grievances and even let go of all the people who poured the night incense and inquired about it, would he just think that he hadn't witnessed it, and wouldn't we have known that he had appeared at that time?"

Liu Ya frowned and said, "Do you suspect that Qiu Bang knows what the Zhang family is secretly doing, but even if he knows and conceals it, it is within the normal range of self-preservation, right? Ordinary people know that they can't afford to provoke the Zhang family's business when they think of it, what does he take to fight with the Zhang family's deals? In the end, it is a risk to be willing to stand up for the innocent me." ”

"When I haven't delved into these issues before, I roughly thought the same way, he didn't want to cause trouble but still stood up for the innocent you, such a kind act, there is no place to doubt it. Kang Yayuki handed another file to Liu Ya, "Until I went to Geluofang today, I found out about his existence, and I learned some old things from the shopkeeper's mouth. ”

Liu Ya opened the file is a simple confession record (meaning the on-site notes that have not yet been sorted out and archived), and Kang Zaizhi continued, "The shopkeeper's surname is Qiu, and he is Qiu Bang's uncle, Qiu Bang came to Beijing to join him after leaving Beijing after the Zhang family exterminated the door, but the shopkeeper Qiu did not accept him to work in Geluofang, but only introduced some ways, told him to continue pouring night incense, and returned with this matter of Geluofang. ”

"The shopkeeper Qiu treated him so harshly because Qiu Bang was not his brother Qiu Yin's biological son, this matter was overheard by his father when he talked to Qiu Yin, who was the eldest son, before his father died, Qiu Yin was also for Qiu Bang, until his father begged before his death and did not marry, and Qiu Yin died when Qiu Bang was sixteen years old, and Qiu Bang inherited Qiu Yin's line of pouring night incense. ”

Liu Ya looked at what was written in the confession, Qiu Yin joined the army at the age of fifteen, stationed in the Fan family barracks, was discharged from the army at the age of twenty due to leg and foot injuries, and returned to Yinshao Village with a five-year-old child.

She frowned.

"After Qing Qiao told me what Jiang Shao said, I will turn out the case of Qiu Bang's involvement in the Zhang family's extermination and check it from a different angle, a coincidence is a coincidence, but all kinds of coincidences are suspicious, the princess has always been clear-minded, and I came here to discuss these two seemingly unrelated cases with you. Yasuyuki looked at her almost lost in thought.

"The reasoning of the previous Zhang family extermination case was based on the premise that Qiu Bang was not suspicious and the case was temporarily closed due to the interruption of clues, but if Qiu Bang's kind act is overturned, the suspicion will be established, and then boldly assume that he is the murderer who killed the mouth, which can explain why I, who was deeply trapped in the Zhang family at that time and lost my human ability, was lucky to escape the extermination. Liu Ya's out-of-focus eyes lit up, and she said slowly, "After all, the matter of the crazy woman Liu Lian slashing and killing the Zhang family was established by him." ”

The case of the Zhang family's extermination occurred in the middle of the night, and Qiu Bang, an important witness witness, did not report the case in time, so he was discovered by his neighbors the next day.

Because he knew her name from the beginning, but he didn't expect that she was actually good at medicine and then able to test.

"You mean, did Qiu Bang deliberately appear as a weakling—or a kind weakling?"

"He retreats into advance, so that we have a preconceived idea that he is innocent, and the connection between them lies in the Fan family military camp. Liu Ya groaned, and suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps, and some familiar male voices panted and shouted:

"Kang Kang Kang catch quickly! Then the colleagues who followed Qiu Qiu and Qiu Bang are lost!"

Hearing this, Kang Zaizhi stood up awkwardly, and wanted to leave without thinking about it.

Liu Ya hurriedly grabbed him, "Don't worry, if I'm not mistaken, he plans to act tonight, and he will definitely come to me." ”

Kang Ya was stunned, and was about to ask something, when the little maid in the mansion hurriedly and at a loss for what to do, she hurriedly ran over and gasped and reported, "Miss, did the steward of the Shilang Mansion say that he would pick up the sixth young master according to the scheduled hour, but the little young master Jiang has never been here at all! The little guys in the front and back yards and the guards patrolling inside and outside the house have repeatedly made sure that they have not seen the figure of the little young master Jiang!"

Liu Ya's heart sank and he twisted his eyebrows and said, "Why don't you ask the steward to come in and talk." ”

The little maid took the order, folded out, and quickly brought in a middle-aged woman in her thirties.

Before she could give her a salute, Liu Ya asked, "My cousin told you that he wanted to come to my house, and when did that happen?"

"Back to Princess Moxie's words, it is a matter of Shen Shi, the sixth young master said that everyone will enter the palace to participate in the banquet, I am afraid that you will be bored at home alone, so I will come to Liufu to accompany you, and I will pick up the old slave when I want it. The steward of the Shilang Mansion, the king, knelt down in fear before answering.

"Did he go out on his own?" asked Liu Ya again.

"With the maid Qiong Yao who is serving closely. ”

"Qiong Yao's bottom line. ”

"At the end of spring, the beautiful maid that Madame picked from Ya Po specially served the sixth young master's daily life, and Madame originally planned to promote Qiong Yao to a room if they got along well, but the sixth young master had clearly refused this matter. ”

Liu Ya was groaning, and the little maid in the house rushed in in with a panicked expression and said, "Miss, a child just sent a letter-"

Kang Yazhi cautiously took it and opened it, took out a red moon jade pendant and a folded rice paper, and listened to Wang Mo babble, "It's the jade pendant that the sixth young master wears——" And when he opened the rice paper, he saw four big characters neatly black:

Thousand Peaks Temple.

He suddenly remembered something, "It's General Chang Wei's wife who lives temporarily—"

Liu Ya looked at Kang Yazhi's raised rice paper and said, "He has been planning for so long but has lost three bets, he is going to have a big game." She turned back to her room and took out charcoal and rice paper, and after writing quickly, she took out a black round token wrapped in a gold-edged pattern from the locked cabinet, and the chief of the guard commanded, "Enter the palace immediately to find my cousin Jiang Zhiyu." ”

The chief of the guard respectfully took the token and the oracle and left.

Liu Ya changed into a slightly thicker cloak before walking out of the room, and looked at Kangya, who was meditating by the bonfire, "You take me to Qianfeng Temple." ”

Kangya subconsciously shook his head, "No, I can't afford to take responsibility for your accident-"

"Now that my cousin is in his hands, how can I ignore it? Not to mention that there are so many lives in Qianfeng Temple, if I don't go, he will not be able to tolerate me, the princess of the Western Desert, and the people will definitely point to my back and scold me for being greedy for life and afraid of death, and I will throw rotten eggs and rotten vegetables at me when I meet some crazy people, although I don't care about other people's words, but I don't want to be afraid every time I go out, and the picture of needing three thousand soldiers and horses to go shopping is too beautiful, I can't afford it. ”

Kang Zaizhi wanted to say more, but Liu Ya said again, "Qiu Bang doesn't mean to hurt me." ”

"Let's go, let's go to Daotai Mansion first. ”

**

Although the Qianfeng Temple is located on the outskirts of the city, but it is only 30 miles away from Beijing, it is a small temple with a history of only five years, because the environment is quiet and elegant, the monks are strict and kind, and the most important thing is that it is close to Beijing.

When Yasuyuki led twenty junior catchers and twenty intermediate catchers, carrying willow buds wrapped like a small burden, the temple was brightly lit and very quiet, and the closed temple door squeaked open after their voices stopped suspiciously, and a little novice of about eleven or twelve years old looked at them with a white face covered with cold sweat, and his trembling eyes finally settled on the willow buds coming down from Kangya's back.

"You, you, are you Princess Moxie?" as soon as the little novice opened his mouth, he shook out the fear in his heart, and choked up.

The air in the woods on the outskirts was much colder than in Shangjing, and Liu Ya carried the stove and wrapped the cloak tightly before he sneezed out, "Well, I'm Princess Moxie, doesn't Qiu Bang want to see me, what about others?"
