"A prince and aristocrat?" Pei Hantang asked curiously, "Which prince and aristocrat?" The girl shook her head: "I don't know that."
Pei Hantang: "Thank you, sorry for disturbing you."
Leave after the girl salutes.
Pei Hantang sighed: "Although there is fate, but no part.
"Yes." Mu Zhiming nodded. He looked at the painting again and looked at it carefully. He saw that the girl in the painting was holding a fan of flowers and birds, leaning lazily on the warm couch of Arhat and Peony. Fantasies.
In fact, compared to himself, Mu Zhiming felt that the person in the painting was more like another person he knew.
On the other side, Pei Hantang whispered with Gu Heyan: "Is it very similar? Do you want to take the painting back to the house and hide it?"
Gu Heyan said indifferently: "It's not like, I don't want to."
Pei Hantang: "Ah? These eyebrows are so similar, how can they be different?"
Gu Heyan said, "Mu Zhiming has always behaved elegantly, sitting like a bell. Gu Heyan glanced at the beauty painting again, without a trace of turbulence in his eyes, and even more assuredly said: "It's not like that. "
Mu Zhiming came from a family of hairpins, and he treated people politely and politely since he was a child.
not to mention... ..
In this world, who can compete for half of him? Where does the five-point similarity come from. Pei Hantang snapped: "...Okay. Okay."
The four of them waited for a while, the pavilion master came, and Pei Hantang routinely asked if anyone was missing, and whether there was a piano girl or a pipa girl who had not returned to the pavilion for three days.
The answer was no.
There was no clue here, and the four left, walked to the street, and were surrounded by human voices. In the bustling streets and alleys, I just feel exhausted and at a loss.
Wen Heyin couldn't help but said: "We're looking for a needle like this, and it's too tiring. And if that woman is not a singing prostitute, but just a servant in someone's house, wouldn't we be wasting our efforts?"
Pei Hantang said with a smile: "Small things, all investigations are like this. You need to work hard. If you encounter a difficult and miscellaneous case, investigate it. It happened in the past few months."
Mu Zhiming turned to look at Gu Heyan and said softly, "Heyan, are you tired? Your injured arm only healed yesterday..."
Gu Heyan didn't seem to expect that Mu Zhiming would talk to him, he was stunned for a while before he remembered to answer, and because he tried hard to suppress the emotions in his voice, he seemed very cold: "It's okay if you're not tired."
At this moment, someone suddenly came galloping on a horse, and the speed was so fast that passersby were shocked. .
Gu Heyan frowned, and without thinking about it, he took the young prince of Yan country behind him, chasing him away from being hit by the horse, and also blocked the dust raised for him.
The man was the guard of Jingzhao Mansion. He pulled the reins to a stop, turned over and dismounted, walked quickly to Pei Hantang, and said in a hurry, "Lord Pei, I have found you, no good, something happened!"
Pei Hantang: "What happened, please take it slow and make it clearer."
The man said, "The corpse of a woman with a scorched face and bruises on her back found yesterday was stolen!"
The four of them returned to the yamen of Jingzhao Mansion non-stop, and walked quickly to the mortuary. Several guards of Jingzhao Mansion were already waiting there, and the guards of the mortuary were also there, looking at the empty coffin in front of them, shivering and not knowing what to do. measures.
Pei Hantang walked over a few steps and asked loudly, "Why did the corpse disappear?"
The person guarding the mortuary hurriedly saluted and said in a panic, "It was, it was stolen."
"Stolen?! By whom? Did you see it?" Pei Hantang asked. "Two men in black with masks." The person guarding the mortuary said, "Today, at You Shi, I locked the mortuary and left. Halfway through the journey, I remembered that I didn't bring anything, so I turned back, how far is it?" As soon as I saw the door of the mortuary room wide open, I was wondering when I saw two men in black in night clothes come out carrying a corpse, which scared me, oh yo, my legs were shaking!"
"Didn't you call someone?" Pei Hantang asked. "I shouted!" said the mortuary guard hurriedly.
The guard of Jingzhao Mansion on the side said frustratedly: "At that time, there were few people in the mansion, and the two men in black were highly skilled in martial arts. It seemed that there were other people outside to support us. We were incompetent and didn't catch up."
Jingzhao Mansion was invaded at night and the body was lost. This is a shameless thing. Pei Hantang was furious, his face was frosty, and his voice became cold: "Check the mortuary."
But the man in black came clearly prepared, and he knew how to investigate, so he didn't leave any clues.
This incident quickly alerted the governor of Jingzhao, Pei Hantang's father, Master Pei. It was not appropriate for Mu Zhiming and other outsiders to continue to stay in the ya], so they said goodbye and left. On the way back to Mu Mansion, Wen Heyin saw that Mu Zhiming was silent and frowned, so he persuaded: "Young master, don't think about it, just leave everything behind me, rest early tonight, you Isn't your body still a little uncomfortable?"
Mu Zhiming came back to his senses and looked at Wen Heyin: "I don't understand something."
Wen Heyin said, "What's the matter?"
Mu Zhiming said: "The woman's face has been burnt, and no one can recognize her face, which makes it difficult for us to find people, and this Jingzhao Mansion is not a good place. The risk of catching and leaving clues is to break into Jingzhao Mansion and steal the body."
Wen Heyin scratched her head: "Yes, why?"
"I guess it's because..." Mu Zhiming looked at Wen Heyin without blinking, pressed his throat, and said in a ghostly voice, "The female... can speak"
