Like a wounded beast at this moment, Mr. Arakitsuki curled up and jumped up from the chair, roaring at Ye Feng: "Nonsense, you are talking nonsense, I don't believe it, you have no basis!"

Ye Feng looked at his bloodshot eyes calmly, and said lightly: "If you don't believe it, sir, you can think about it." The red jade girl has been an Oiran lady in Lanzhou City for many years, and has countless suitors, and she is full of people every day, so she must have a lot of savings in private over the years, and there must be a lot of precious jewelry, right?"

Mr. Arazuki nodded indifferently, the red jade girl is an Oiran lady, and her identity is naturally different from that of ordinary geisha, and she is supposed to share the account with the Qinglou, plus the silver that the guests give in private, and the private savings should indeed be a lot.

Ye Feng raised his voice and asked, "When you were desperate, did the red jade girl once take out her savings silver taels or jewelry, and was willing to help you tide over the difficulties together?"

Mr. Arazuki looked at Ye Feng blankly and did not make a sound.

He didn't answer, but Ye Feng knew the answer by looking at his reaction, and knew that what he guessed was not wrong at all.

He let out a long sigh and said to Mr. Arazuki, "If the Ruby Girl really loves you with all her heart, how can she willingly marry someone else, find out her heart to please him, and let you watch all this and endure the pain of the past twenty years?"

"As a mother, if she really loves her son Guan Pengfei, how can she bear to let him not know his life experience for 20 years, and call other people's fathers every day?

When Mr. Arakitsuki heard this barrage of questions, his whole body trembled like a lightning strike, and he sat back in his chair weakly.

Ye Feng said slowly: "So, in fact, Mrs. Guan doesn't love you at all, and she has no intention of telling Guan Pengfei the truth at all, let alone letting him come back to your side and recognize you." What she really loves is only the fame and money of the Guan family, as well as herself. ”

Mr. Arakitsuki's whole body trembled, his eyes flashed with tears, and his face was as sad as death.

It's not that he doesn't believe Ye Feng's words, it's just that he doesn't want to believe it.

In the past twenty years, he has not been completely unsuspicious of Hongyu's intentions, but every time he has forced himself not to think about it.

After all, she and her son are his only relatives in this world, and they are also his only motivation to live in this world. If even they were to be skeptical, who else could he trust?

Therefore, he chose to believe Hongyu's words and wait for the day when he would recognize his son, this obsession was like a life-saving straw in his desperate situation, and he held it tightly to support it to survive these twenty years.

But now, even the only straw is about to be shattered.

Ye Feng looked at Mr. Arazuki and couldn't stop sighing in his heart.

This poor man, who was only in his early fifties, looked so old and helpless! He had endured for twenty years for a woman and a lie.

People are often like this, who can give everything for something they believe in, because he feels that this thing can bring him the meaning of life. But he never asked, and perhaps didn't dare to ask, did this thing really make sense in itself?

But in retrospect, if Mr. Arazuki had learned the truth twenty years ago and knew that the Red Jade Girl was just using him, would he still have the courage to live to this day?

Speaking of which, although the Red Jade Girl deceived him back then and gave him a false hope, this false hope has supported him from a desperate situation to this day, is this hope true or false, and is it really important?

Ye Feng shook his head secretly, right and wrong in this world

Right and wrong, it's too tangled, too difficult to understand, far more complicated than this confusing case, fortunately, he just wants to find out the truth of this mysterious case.

I was feeling emotional, and suddenly I heard someone in the yard hurriedly running from far and near. came to the door, banged on the door, and called anxiously: "Ye Gongzi, Ye Gongzi!"

Ye Feng turned around and walked over and opened the door, there was a person dressed as a catcher with an anxious face standing at the door, Ye Feng remembered that he was one of the several catchers who followed behind Zhou Ziran, the prefect of Lanzhou.

He gasped for breath, and could see how anxious he was to get into the inner courtyard from outside.

Ye Feng frowned, knowing that something urgent must have happened, and without waiting for him to take a breather and calm down, he asked, "What happened?"

The catcher said: "Earlier, Mrs. Guan's personal maid suddenly asked the guards to pass the word, saying that she remembered an important clue, and it was related to the murderer of Mrs. Guan. That person couldn't find Mr. Guan all over the place, so he came to tell Mr. Zhou, and now Mr. Zhou didn't dare to be proficient, so let the little one hurry up and ask Mr. Ye for advice, what should I do next?"

A dignified prefect didn't dare to make a decision when he encountered something, but he wanted to ask Ye Feng, a white ding who had no official position, which sounded very funny.

But considering the signboard on Ye Feng's head that His Royal Highness King Su had appointed to investigate the case, and Lord Zhou's sleek personality, this matter was not strange at all.

Ye Feng pondered slightly, and asked, "Lord Zhou, where are they now?"

The catcher quickly replied: "Still waiting for Ye Gongzi's reply in the front yard." ”

Ye Feng asked again, "What about the maidservant?"

Caught quickly: "She is still locked up in her room in the inner house." ”

Ye Feng nodded and said, "I'll go with you to see Lord Zhou, first of all, I have to immediately send someone to find and inform Master Guan, after all, this is the Guan family, no matter what you do, you should say hello to the master here first." ”

He turned to look at Mr. Arakitsuki, who was still sitting in the room in a dementia, and knew that he must be in a state of confusion at the moment, and he was still too caught up in his chaotic thoughts to be disturbed, so he stepped out of the room, turned around and gently closed the door.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of gurgling in the flower garden in the corner of the courtyard, Ye Feng looked back, only to see the flowers and plants shaking, but there was no half of a figure.

It was probably a small animal like a wild cat and a wild dog running over just now, Ye Feng didn't think much about it, turned around and hurriedly walked to the front yard with the catcher.

At this moment, in the inner house, the maidservant Xiaolan is sitting in her own room with her back to the door.

Originally, the person guarding the door had already gone to the front yard to report, but there was no figure in the courtyard of the inner house, and it was a little dark and gloomy.

There was a candle lit in Xiaolan's room, and the whole room looked a little dim, so Xiaolan just sat in the room, a little upset.

Since Mrs. Guan was killed, the eldest prince had her guarded in his room, saying that he was an important witness. Although there was no shortage of three meals a day, she was neither allowed to come and go casually, nor was she allowed to talk casually with others, just like a prisoner, which suffocated this innocent and lively age, and usually loved to chirp the most.

This night, she suddenly said that she remembered an important clue, and it was related to the murderer of Mrs. Guan, what kind of clue could it be?

In the quiet courtyard, there was a faint sound of footsteps, not slow, from far to near, was someone here to take her to question?

Maybe it was because she had waited too long, Xiaolan shook her back slightly at the door, maybe she was a little nervous.

With a "squeak" sound, the door was slowly pushed open

Well, the voice sounded particularly harsh in the silence of the night.

A figure walked in slowly, he was not a person in the Qinglong Dart Bureau, nor was he a catcher under the prefect Zhou, but he was wearing a night suit, and his face was covered with a black scarf, so he couldn't tell who it was.

And in his hand, he held a bright long sword, the blade of the sword flickered with a cold cold light against the candle flame, what kind of person is he! What do you want to do?

Xiaolan still sat motionless with her back to the door, without even looking back.

Her reaction seemed to be a little unexpected by the man in black, he felt stunned for a moment, but soon walked slowly towards Xiaolan.

One-step!

Two steps!

Xiaolan still didn't look back, as if she didn't know what was happening behind her.

The man in black came behind Xiao Lan, his eyes flickered, and he seemed to have made up his mind, and as soon as he raised his hand, he raised his sword and stabbed at Xiao Lan's vest!

At this moment, Xiaolan suddenly turned around.

She was wearing Xiaolan's clothes, and her head-style outfit was also dressed as a maid, but this face was not Xiaolan.

But...... It's Tang Rou!

The man in black was taken aback, the sword blade was slightly suffocated, and he saw Tang Rou's hand move, and a little cold star flew out, hitting his wrist.

The long sword fell to the ground with a "bang", and the man in black covered his wrist and retreated several steps, looking at Tang Rou in front of him in surprise.

Tang Rou didn't speak, just smiled at him.

The voice of the man in black trembled a little: "You, why are you here?"

Tang Rou still didn't answer, but a voice sounded outside the door: "Of course I arranged it." ”

Before the words fell, Ye Feng strode in from outside the door, followed by his righteous brother Xie Zhenliang, Zhang Fatzi, Lanzhou Governor Zhou Ziran Zhou, of course, Tang Yu, who was inseparable from protecting Ye Feng.

As soon as these people entered the house, seven or eight people under the command of Lord Zhou appeared outside, holding lanterns and torches, illuminating the courtyard of the inner house as if it were day.

Seeing so many people appear at once, the man in black suddenly understood that he had fallen into a trap and couldn't help but hang his head.

Ye Feng looked at the dejected man in black in front of him, his face was quite proud, as if he was looking at a trophy of his own.

This house was inhabited by maids and maidservants, there were no windows, and the only exit was this door, which was now surrounded by water, and the man in black stood in the middle of the room, looking like a trapped beast, and there was no way to escape.

Ye Feng smiled at him and said, "You really came." ”

The man in black snorted coldly: "You know I'm coming?"

Ye Feng smiled: "From the time you eavesdropped on my conversation with Mr. Arazuki, I knew that I didn't guess wrong, you would definitely fall into my trap." The arrester under Lord Zhou came to report the news, which I had arranged before, so that you could overhear it, so as to force you to take action. ”

"Actually, Xiaolan didn't think of any clues at all, I asked Miss Tang Rou to pretend to be Xiaolan here, and you will definitely be able to take advantage of our only opportunity in the front yard to come and kill your mouth, I arranged such a fragrant bait, just to catch your big fish!"

His eyes were blazing and he stared at the man in black: "So far, what's the point of you wearing that scarf? Why don't we show people with our true faces, Master Guan!"

The people around him were all shocked when they heard this, what, the man in black in front of him turned out to be Guan Dagongzi, Guan Pengju?
