The second old man, Mu Jingcheng, saw that Mrs. Mu mistakenly thought that his idea of separating was bewitched by the branches, so he hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand, saying that this matter was all his own idea, and no one else knew.

As he spoke, he begged Mrs. Mu again to agree to him to move out of the Mu Mansion and go out to set up his own door.

Old Madam Mu, whose face was as black as the bottom of a pot, slammed the dragon head crutch in her hand to the ground, saying that unless she died, Mu Jingcheng would dispel this idea as soon as possible.

The angry Old Madam Mu was helped by the eldest lady Tang to walk to the back hall, and the second old man Mu Jingcheng, who did not give up, followed closely like a tail, trying to persuade Old Madam Mu.

Several aunts in the second room of Mu Mansion also hurriedly followed, one was to persuade Mu Jingcheng to dispel the idea of separation, and the other was to see how the situation developed, worried that Old Madam Mu really agreed to Mu Jingcheng's request.

In the huge hall, the birds and beasts were scattered for a while, leaving only the branches of the fifth aunt, looking at Ruicao and Mu Yirong with a smile.

"The concubine was full of joy when she saw the eldest young master and Miss Biao coming in, and she seemed to be in a very happy mood, did she encounter any happy event?"

Seocho didn't answer the words of the fifth aunt Zhizhi, bowed slightly at her, said hello, and walked straight towards the backyard.

Mu Yirong also saluted the fifth aunt, and then hurriedly caught up with Ruicao's footsteps, walked to the courtyard of the old lady Mu, and went to greet the old lady together.

Standing alone in the hall, the fifth aunt Zhizhi had a smile of unknown meaning on her face.

On the way to the old lady's yard, Mu Yirong said that the old lady Mu was very angry with his second uncle today, and he would wait for a few days to mention his relationship with Seocho.

However, he planned to give his mother-in-law Tang a breath first.

Seocho thinks that even for the eldest lady Tang, it is better to wait for a while.

Recently, Mufu has always been unpeaceful, and the eldest lady Tang has to worry about a lot of things, and Mu Yixing's benefactor exam this year has also gone wrong, which makes her very troubled. In the near future, don't worry about other things.

Mu Yirong, who was a little moved, held Seocho's hand and interlocked his fingers: "I'm worried that you will be wronged." ”

"I don't feel aggrieved. Moreover, even if the two of us get married, how is it different from now?"

Now almost every day, Mu Yirong goes to Xianyuan to have dinner with Ruicao, and then takes a carriage to Dali Temple to order Mao, visits and investigates cases in Shangjing City together, and then goes home together from work.

Day by day, two people are like conjoined people, and there is almost no time to separate!

Seocho didn't understand that the days after marriage were not the same, and what was the difference.

Mu Yirong, whose eyes avoided Seocho's gaze, couldn't help but swallow his saliva, suppressed some inappropriate thoughts in his mind, and nodded helplessly.

"Yes, you're right. ”

As he spoke, he took Seocho's hand and walked into the old lady's house to say goodbye.

The angry old lady rested, and the spiritless eldest lady Tang also let the two of them go back to the room to rest after a busy day.

It is the two of them who are sweet and good, where can they sleep, holding hands, sitting in the courtyard to admire the moon.

It's just that not long after they looked at each other sweetly, the topic of the two came to the case again.

Ruicao Dao regretted that the scholar Zhongju was such an aspiring young man, and hoped that Teng Huangyu could be found as soon as possible, find out the whole story, and arrest the murderer, so that the scholar Zhongju could be blinded under Jiuquan.

Mu Yirong, who was holding Seocho's hand, nodded, saying that they would definitely be able to catch the murderer of scholar Zhongju.

The refreshing autumn breeze swept through the tips of Seocho's hair, and she leaned her head on Mu Yirong's shoulder.

Mu Yirong also gently rested his head against Seocho's head, hanging in the full moon in the sky, and hid behind the clouds very familiarly.

The next day, at the beginning of Yinshi, behind the Great Solemn Temple in Yongyang Fang, Ruicao and Mu Yirong stood side by side, looking down at a man lying in a pool of blood on the ground.

"It's Teng Huangyu, there's nothing wrong, right?"

Mu Yirong, who confirmed the identity of the corpse, nodded, looked up and looked around, and saw that the sky had not yet seen light, but there were already many ordinary people who had come to offer incense and pray, gathered here to watch the excitement, and were discussing enthusiastically in a loud voice.

In order to track down Teng Huangyu and Bao Zhong, they were transferred to the Dali Temple in Jingzhao Mansion to ask all the members of the team, and Dachuan was leading the way to maintain order, Hou Hu went to ask Lao Li, who had not yet gone to work, Hou Monkey stepped forward with a young question, and said that the name of the questioner was Ichiro, who was responsible for searching Yongyangfang last night.

At dawn, people who came to pray for the blessings of his students began to come to offer incense near the Great Solemn Temple, and it didn't take long for him to hear screams.

Following the screams to this place, Ichiro found the body lying in a pool of blood, and hurriedly stepped forward to check, the victim was completely out of breath, and immediately looked for someone to report to Dali Temple.

Mu Yirong asked Hou Monkey to take Ichiro to identify the people who found the corpses and interrogate them to see what clues could be found?

After telling this, Mu Yirong walked back to Ruicao's side, saw her squatting down, very focused on carefully inspecting Teng Huangyu's body, and asked softly, did you find anything?

The fatal wound on Teng Huangyu's body was in the abdomen, and the wound was flat, which was a sharp weapon wound.

There was a lot of blood, and the pants were soaked and flowed to the ground, forming a large pool of blood. It can be seen that the place where the body lay is the scene of the first crime.

However, Teng Huangyu had more than one wound on his abdomen, but there were five or six wounds, of varying depths, but it could not be judged that the murderer was committing the murder with the purpose of putting him to death.

Seocho, who quickly rummaged through Teng Huangyu's clothes, did not find anything, no money bags, and no very popular prayer items for candidates around his waist, nor did he see famous brands, burdens and other items.

From the Da Zhuangyan Temple next to it, it can be preliminarily speculated that Teng Huangyu, who came here early in the morning, wanted to burn incense and worship the Buddha and pray for blessings.

And judging from the emptiness of his body, he should have been ransacked.

But robbers, who usually focus on property, do not do such ruthless things.

This case, no matter how you look at it, seems to have deliberately created a false impression that Teng Huangyu was robbed and killed. But that doesn't rule it out.

Ruicao also has such an idea, Teng Huangyu is involved in the leaking case, and it may be related to the death of scholar Zhongju, saying that he was killed, which is more tenable.

Observing the corpse for a long time, through the temperature and stiffness of the corpse, as well as the changes in pupils, and the formation of corpse spots, it was preliminarily inferred that Teng Huangyu's death time was not long, about half an hour.

Usually, the temple does not open its doors early to welcome pilgrims, unless the new yuan is opened, and some dignitaries and dignitaries rush to serve the first incense, the temple will open early to welcome the pilgrims.

Sometimes it is the Christmas day of gods and Buddhas such as Guanyin and the God of Wealth, and pilgrims are greeted in advance.

Recently, it coincided with the Enke exam, and the number of pilgrims who came to the temple every day to worship incense was more than 100 times more than usual.

In order to bless the title of the gold list of their own students and candidates, many pilgrims have to visit all the temples in the entire Shangjing City every day, offer incense, donate incense money, and draw lots, which is very pious and tireless.

Therefore, many temples in Shangjing City have already opened their doors to welcome pilgrims around the beginning of the Yin period.

Da Zhuangyan Temple is located in Yongyangfang, located in the southwest corner of Shangjing City, so the opening time is later than other temples, but it is also about a moment in the middle of the day.

When Ichiro found the body, it was around the time of Yin before the opening of the Great Solemn Temple, so it can be temporarily concluded that Teng Huangyu was killed between the second quarter of the end of the ugly period and the beginning of the Yin period.

Now that the autumn equinox has passed, the cold dew is approaching, the sky is cool and the night is long, Teng Huangyu has not yet lit the lamp when he was killed, and the surrounding lights are dark and blind, and it is estimated that it is difficult to have witnesses.

Hou Hou, who was in charge of looking for witnesses, took Ichiro to inquire around, and found three people who found the bodies, a family of three, a middle-aged couple, and a little girl about seven or eight years old.

Both husband and wife trembled and said that when they walked here, they found the body, and then screamed in fright.

After that, an official of Dali Temple heard the shouting, but other than that, he didn't see any suspicious person.

The woman under the age of forty held her young daughter tightly in her arms, and in her arms, the little girl seemed much calmer than her parents, whose eyes were full of fear and trembling.

"I saw it. ”
