"Master Zhen's visit to the humble house will make the house shine brightly." The Marquis of Changxing was very enthusiastic, but he felt uneasy in his heart.
Zhen Shicheng is the governor of Shuntian, an important official of the imperial court. He naturally wants to give enough face, but the two have never communicated. What would an investigator come to his house to do
Those people love to chase after the wind and the shadows. After Zhen Shicheng came here, the rumors that turned his head may not be so invisible.
Zhen Shicheng laughed: "Master Hou is very polite. I caught up with the sudden death of Concubine Yang's brother before I entered Beijing. I took the liberty to visit Master Hou because I wanted to know some things."
When Changxing Hou heard this, he was even more annoyed.
What does the sudden death of "Yang Guoji" have to do with their Changxing Houfu? How unlucky!
"I don't know what Master Zhen wants to know about the situation?" The corner of Changxinghou's mouth closed the smile unconsciously.
Zhen Shicheng put the teacup on the table and stood up: "It's hot in the room, so let's go, Lord Hou, let's just walk outside and talk while walking."
The Marquis of Changxing had already been aroused by Zhen Shicheng's curiosity, so he stood up and said, "Master Zhen, please."
The two went out, the dazzling sunlight made Zhen Shicheng raise his hand to cover his eyes, and said with a smile: "Today is really good weather, I heard that the peony flowers in your house are the most famous, and they are still in full bloom at this time. view?"
The Marquis of Changxing was at a loss.
The dignified governor of Shuntian came to his house just to enjoy the flowers
Seeing that the Marquis of Changxing was silent, Zhen Shicheng lowered his voice and said, "Master Hou also knows that the sudden death of Concubine Yang's brother has been abuzz in the capital these past few days. So I came to the door because I got a piece of information."
"What information?" Changxing Hou thought unconsciously followed Zhen Shicheng.
Zhen Shicheng's voice was even lower: "Some people said that the day before the sudden death of Yang Fei's brother, he had contact with the Prince of Changxing."
"What!" Hou Changxing's expression changed drastically.
Zhen Shicheng stopped talking, pretending to be stroking his beard.
The two cases were rushed together, and it was true that he did not sleep well as he said. He even had to hurry up to eat. He felt a grain of rice from his beard.
Zhen Shicheng quietly flicked off the rice grains without changing his face, still with a mysterious expression.
"Master Zhen, the dog has a good-natured temperament, so he won't have anything to do with the case of Concubine Yang's brother!"
Zhen Shicheng smiled and said, "Don't panic, Lord Hou, this official has heard that your son is a talented person, so he will definitely not be that vicious person. It's just that since there is such a clue, this official does not want to make a big deal and order the son to go to the yamen for questioning, so I just came to your mansion to find the Marquis and Young Master Ling to understand the situation."
"Yes, yes, thank you Lord Zhen." The Marquis of Changxing breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhen Shicheng frowned secretly.
Looking at the demeanor of Marquis Changxing, could it be that he doesn't know about his son? Or is it that the Prince of Changxing Hou did not kidnap and kill the woman, but someone targeted the Changxing Hou Mansion
Zhen Shicheng is not optimistic about the second possibility.
He had already sent someone to investigate, and it was true that Xiu Niangzi's daughter had been missing for some days, and Chi Yuanwai also received a letter from his subordinates from flying pigeons in Yanzi Town.
Changxing Hou Shizi and the disappearance of the two little girls are inseparable.
"Master Hou, let's chat while walking."
Seeing Zhen Shicheng walking towards the garden, the Marquis of Changxing stopped him: "Master Zhen, today is really unfortunate. There was a flower viewing banquet at home and many little girls were invited to enjoy the flowers in the garden..."
Zhen Shicheng was stunned for a moment, and then showed regret: "Uh, that's really unfortunate. It doesn't matter, let's just stroll around here, please ask the Lord to invite Master Ling."
"Master Zhen, wait a moment, Ben Hou will send someone to call the dog over. It's just that the dog is timid, and I hope Master Zhen will forgive me."
"It's natural, Lord Hou can rest assured." Zhen Shicheng laughed loudly, but he was quite depressed.
Fortunately, he has been investigating cases for many years, and he has encountered many setbacks.
Today, I saw Changxing Hou Shizi first, and it was not in vain.
In the garden, Jiang seemed to be entangled by Jiang Qian.
"The third and fourth sisters only came for one day last time and left. I have been thinking about it in my heart. After this flower viewing banquet, you can stay for a few days."
"Second sister misses us so much?" Jiang Qiao unconsciously held Jiang Si's hand and sneered in her heart.
Outsiders seem to have a deep love for sisters, but I don't know that this couple is a vicious dog who is thinking about meat buns!
Jiang Qian's eyes fell on the hands that the two sisters were clasping, and she answered the question: "I still remember that the third sister and the fourth sister always liked to quarrel when I was a child. It can be seen that they are so old now that they are so good."
"People always grow up." Jiang Qiao smiled and hugged Jiang Shi's arm, her face innocent and innocent, "Second sister knows, I love rashes when I change places, and I can't stay overnight."
"That's okay, Fourth Sister can—"
Jiang Qiao decisively interrupted Jiang Qian's words: "I am alone in the uncle's mansion, and the fourth sister has to go back to accompany me. We are separated. If the second sister wants to stay with you, let the fifth and sixth sisters stay with you."
Ahem, it's not that she cruelly pushed Fifth Sister and Sixth Sister into the wolf's den. Since they were able to retreat last time, it can be seen that the Prince of Changxing does not look down on them.
Jiang Qiao couldn't help but glance at Jiang Si, and sighed in her heart: It can be seen that it is safer to look ugly.
Jiang Qian's expression was slightly stiff. If she didn't want to pretend to be sisters, she would have to tear Jiang Qiao's mouth to pieces.
This is so bad!
After slowly exhaling, Jiang Qian smiled and said, "The third sister should also be considerate and considerate of the elder sister. The fourth younger sister used to love to play with me, but it has been a long time since I got married. This time, the second sister really wants to keep the fourth younger sister. Stay a few more days."
shameless!
Jiang Qiao cursed in her heart, but found that Jiang Si didn't say a word, and tugged at her sleeve anxiously.
If you don't speak again, the little white rabbit will enter the wolf's den. You can squeak!
At this time, Jiang Si had no time to pay attention to these confrontations, and he was completely focused on how to let Lord Zhen find the corpse of the garden girl.
There is no better opportunity than now. There are so many noble women here. If the woman's body is found, it will be impossible for the Marquis of Changxing to cover it up.
Jiang Si clenched his hands, his palms a little wet.
Her phantom fireflies are not enough to cause so many people to fall into hallucinations at the same time in broad daylight, so she can only use another—
Jiang Si suddenly felt that Jiang Qiao was pulling her sleeves too hard, so she couldn't help frowning: "Third sister—"
However, Jiang Qiao's small mouth was slightly opened, looking astonished, followed by the screams of the ladies one after another.
Jiang Shi turned her head and saw a half-human-height big dog waving its tail happily.
How did the two cows come
"Come here, kill this mad dog and drag it out!" The sudden change made Jiang Qian's voice change its tone.
Er Niu was dissatisfied and used his front paws to plan the soil.
Who to kill and drag out
This crazy woman, eat it!
The big dog soared into the air and rushed towards Jiang Qian.
