"bang bang bang"

Sitting in the car, Hua Xiwan heard a faint screeching sound in the distance. She lifted a corner of the curtain, only to find that there was a thin layer of fog on the street. She frowned, what's the weather like now? Will it fog up

When she was in the palace, she also saw a full moon hanging in the sky. Now that more than half an hour has passed, the weather has become so fast

She took a closer look, and it turned out that it wasn't foggy outside, but a drizzle of fluffy rain. Because the street was a little dark, it looked like fog was dazzling.

"It's raining?" Yan Jinqiu, who was sitting beside her, lifted the curtain and glanced at it, with some regret in his tone, "I can't see the moon anymore."

Hua Xiwan lowered the curtain and smiled at him: "You can enjoy the moon anytime, so why stick to which day?"

"Is Xiwan always so open-minded?" Yan Jinqiu looked at her with a seriousness in his eyes that Xiwan couldn't understand, "I don't care about anything, I can look away at everything?"

"Those who are open-minded live happier, life is too short, why can't you live with yourself?" Hua Xiwan didn't change her smile, but instead looked at the jade gourd hanging on the wall of the car, "Those who care too much want things too. The more, if you can't get it, won't you be lost?"

"But if you encounter something you like and don't fight for it, how do you know that it doesn't belong to you?" Yan Jinqiu watched the rain outside, "At least I tried it, and I won't regret it so much."

"Who knows that after trying it, you won't regret it?" Hua Xiwan held the jade gourd in the palm of her hand. "There are many people in the world who regret their obsessions."

"But I also regret that I never tried," Yan Jinqiu put down the curtain and smiled.

"It's just a different position," Hua Xiwan sneered, "not to mention that those who regret are losers. If you live happily, what time do you have to think about things you never got?"

Yan Jinqiu was silent for a moment, then smiled noncommittally.

"what!"

A shrill scream came from the alley, and it was particularly terrifying in this quiet street. If it weren't for the fact that there were enough young guards in the palace guards of honor, I'm afraid some of the accompanying maids would have been so scared that their legs would have softened.

Hua Xiwan frowned, this is not what it was in previous TV dramas. Men and women can run around on the street at night. After all, there is a curfew here at night. Unrelated people wandering around on the street can be caught as thieves or disorderly parties. of.

At this time, it is inexplicable that someone will be so infiltrating. I don't know if it is a coincidence or something else

Obviously, this scream did not affect the driving of the car from Prince Xian's Mansion, so the group continued to move forward at the original speed. Just as the car was about to turn a corner, a shrill scream came from the alley again. This time it was called. It was even more infiltrating than the last sound, making people shiver from the bones.

At this moment, there was a series of footsteps not far away, as well as the sound of armor colliding with weapons, and soon Hua Xiwan heard a somewhat familiar voice.

"Zhang Hou, the young secretary of Weiwei Temple, has met His Royal Highness King Xian."

Zhang Hou watched the car stop in front of him, and he was relieved. Then the curtain in front of the meeting was lifted by a third, just to reveal the figure of King Xian. He blinked and accidentally saw Xian Wang. A red corner of his clothes was exposed beside the king.

"Zhang Shaoqing, what's the matter?" With a smile on the corner of Yan Jinqiu's mouth, he looked at the young Weiwei Si Shaoqing in front of him. Anyone who could get into this position would not be a simple person, otherwise Weiwei would not be a simple person. It was not his turn to take the position of Weisi Shaoqing.

"My lord, I heard a woman's screams nearby, so I brought someone here to inspect." Zhang Hou's face was covered with a layer of water mist, which was sticky and uncomfortable. I didn't dare to wipe it at will, "I never wanted to meet the lord of your car, it was the younger ones who collided."

"Zhang Shaoqing's words are serious. You are also thinking about the security of our capital. It's just that women screamed inexplicably this night. It's really weird." Yan Jinqiu ticked the corner of his mouth.

"Thank you for the reminder, Lord." When Zhang Hou raised his head again, he saw that the curtain of the carriage had been drawn down. After he bowed to the carriage, he left with his subordinates and began to check the alleys one by one.

"Although Zhang Hou is young, he has his own way of doing things. His position does not seem to be of high rank, but many things in the capital are closely related to him, and most people in Beijing will sell him two points of face," Yan Jinqiu told China Xiwan said, "I heard that you scared the horse last time, and he brought someone to control it urgently?"

Hua Xiwan nodded and said, "This Zhang Shaoqing is indeed very skilled."

Before the car arrived at the gate of Prince Xian's mansion, he heard someone reporting that Zhang Shaoqing had found the screaming person, but the victim was covered in scars and unconscious, and had been sent to the hospital for treatment.

Hua Xiwan frowned, no one would like this kind of thing to happen, she couldn't help but ask: "Can the identity of the victim be found out?"

The person reporting outside hesitated for a while before saying, "These two girls are from Qingyizhai."

"Qing Yi Zhai?" Hua Xiwan was puzzled, but the name was quite elegant, and she didn't know what it was for.

"Why don't you step back, who asked you to say the name of such an unclean place in front of you?" Mu Tong reprimanded.

Hua Xiwan suddenly realized that the people in the land of fireworks had such an elegant name that she thought it was a chess club or a book club or something.

Seeing the expression on her face changing, but not mentioning the firework girl, she felt contemptuous, Yan Jinqiu said unexpectedly, "I wonder what Xiwan thinks about this matter?"

"I don't see it very much," Hua Xiwan shook her head. "There is a Dali Temple in the investigation. I don't even know the cause and effect. What can I say?"

"I mean... what do you think of the two women?"

"Originally, you shouldn't have asked this question, it's too inappropriate." Hua Xiwan's words were stern, but then turned to gentle, "But it's not a big deal between our husband and wife to say some private words that can't be said outside. ." She yawned. She drank a few glasses of wine at the banquet before, but now she suddenly felt a little sleepy, "If there is no business, there will be no market, that's what I think."

Yan Jinqiu was stunned for a moment. After he reacted, he smiled helplessly. He wanted to say that this was a lie, but after thinking about it, he realized that what the other party said was not reasonable. If all men in the world could control themselves, how could this time And there are women who come to do this flesh business

The carriage went on for a while before it stopped. Hua Xiwan heard the servants outside saying that the palace had arrived. She lifted the curtain and saw that there were two soft sedan chairs parked at the gate, and there were a few servants holding umbrellas.

As soon as she and Yan Jinqiu exposed one foot from the carriage, someone came up to hold umbrellas for them, and someone else came to block the wind. When she sat in the sedan chair, not even a drop of rain hit her face.

Zhang Hou waited outside the hospital all night, and finally managed to hold on until dawn, when he heard reports from his subordinates that one of the injuries was too serious and there was no cure for him and he had gone. After listening to it, his face suddenly became a little ugly, and after a while, he said, "I know, let someone report this matter to Dali Temple."

The people at Weiwei Temple are only responsible for patrolling. If there is a murder case, they can only be transferred to Dali Temple or the Ministry of Punishment. They have no right to intervene in this kind of thing.

"Then are the things we found beside the deceased also handed over to Dali Temple?" A subordinate came over with a piece of cotton cloth on which was placed a blood-stained rag and an ink-colored gem.

"Why don't you keep it?" Zhang Hou glanced over the blood-stained rag, "Now that the Prince of Shengjun is in charge of Dali Temple, and the Prince of the County is here, why can't we find out?"

Everyone present remembered the murder of Mr. Zhang, who was in charge of the King of Shengjun some time ago, and their mood suddenly became complicated. After all, the incident involved the prince, which made people in the capital panic. There are still many people who are still trembling, afraid of being inexplicable. be implicated.

Two hours later, Dali Temple received a murder case handed over from Weiwei Temple. Unfortunately, the other victim was not rescued half an hour ago and died of serious injuries.

Both victims are dead, and finding clues in the dead is simply more difficult, but they can't do it if they don't investigate. After all, this matter has been ups and downs, and some people who don't understand the matter even begin to rumor that it is a ghost. . If you don't find out, then the capital will be in chaos.

Dali Siqing's mood is more complicated than anyone else's now, because he finds the evidence handed over by Weiwei Temple a little tricky.

Yan Boyi's face was equally ugly. After all, when anyone was investigating the case, they found that a certain piece of evidence found on the deceased's body belonged to him, and his mood would not be much better.

"Since this matter involves me, it is inconvenient for me to intervene in this matter," Yan Boyi stood up and stopped looking at the evidence related to the case, "I will report this matter to the emperor, and please don't mind your lord."

What Dali Siqing could say, he could only smile profusely.

Yan Jinqiu didn't want to see his face, he raised his feet and walked out of the door of Dali Temple, but he was thinking, who is using such a clumsy method to frame him

"General!"

Hua Xiwan smiled and clapped her hands: "I won this game."

Yan Jinqiu looked at the messed up chess game played by the two of them, smiled helplessly, asked the servant to take down the chessboard, and then said, "People in the capital are panicking these days, you should be careful not to accept rumors from outside. influences."

Hua Xiwan thought about it indifferently, she had heard the screams that night, and it would be strange if she took the rumors outside.

Anyway, no matter how things develop to that point, it has nothing to do with her, and she is not mentally ill, so why do she need to do things to support herself
