The cold voice, familiar with the unusual, was stunned for a while this summer, then quickly recovered, turned around, lowered his head and bowed his head in a respectful gesture: "Your Excellency, you came back so early." I murmured in my heart that this person is not of the genus How can the cat walk without making a sound!
Lu Yi stared at her for a moment and asked lightly, "Is it early? So where do you think I should be at this time?"
The nose has already smelled the faint smell of wine on his robe, and he raised his head this summer and smiled respectfully and humbly: "How dare you make assumptions about the whereabouts of your lord."
"I'm not under the red silk tent, are you disappointed?" Lu Yi raised his eyebrows slightly.
Damn it! He really heard what she said in front of him.
"...Sir, you really like to joke, ha...haha..." Jin Xia smiled stiffly, took a few steps back invisibly, ready to leave at any time, "It's getting late, I won't disturb the adults to appreciate the moon, and I will retire first."
"Don't worry, since the moonlight is just right, don't waste it."
"what?"
"Follow me to investigate the case." Lu Yi turned around.
"In the middle of the night, what are you investigating..." This summer, he took a deep breath, remembering the boss's explanation, and must not be respectful to Lu Yi, "Lord Lu, there is a word of humility, you don't know whether to say it or not?"
"Say."
"I'm a low-ranking arrester, but I'm still a daughter. This... In the middle of the night, I'm naturally willing to follow the adults to investigate the case, but after all, I'm alone, and I'm afraid it will damage the reputation of the adults."
Lu Yi stopped and turned to look at her, who looked at him with sincerity in his eyes.
"Never mind." After a moment, he unexpectedly gave in.
I didn't expect this trick to be so useful, but I was stunned this summer, and then happily cupped my hands: "That humble job retire." After that, she lifted her foot and left.
"It seems that I have to ask Yang Zhaotou to come with me." Lu Yi didn't stop her, just narrated peacefully behind her.
Now it's this summer's turn to stop: the boss is suffering from a leg disease right now, and it's still inconvenient to walk. Just when he needs a rest, how can he follow him in the middle of the night to investigate the case. But if he opens his mouth, the boss has no way to refuse.
This guy is really nasty! she thought angrily.
She turned around immediately, lowered her head and lowered her eyes in a respectful gesture: "If your lord doesn't dislike it, you should go to your humble post."
"It's not good to be alone with a woman?" Lu Yi said calmly, "It will damage my reputation."
"Hey, just now is a stubborn joke of a humble position, adults must not take it easy." This summer gritted his teeth and said something wrong, "Since it is for the court, there is no difference between men and women. The adults are upright and awe-inspiring, you can tell at a glance. He is a true gentleman who can sit still, and absolutely no one dares to gossip."
"If I remember correctly, before a stick of incense, you just said that I was full of energy, and I couldn't help but sway my heart. I don't know where I am?" Lu Yi said lightly.
I was stunned for a moment this summer, I could only grit my teeth, hold on until the end, and said with a dry smile: "...Sir, you really love to joke, how could you be that kind of person, you must have heard it wrong!"
"I'm really not someone who can't sit still." Lu Yi glanced at her, "It's just like you, I have no appetite."
"… "
Seeing her half-hidden hand clenched into a fist, Lu Yi turned around and said indifferently, "Don't leave yet."
Catch up hard this summer.
Exit the official post, turn left, and turn into a quiet alley.
Xia Xing was behind Lu Yi, looking around suspiciously, not understanding what happened in the middle of the night.
In front of a mottled black lacquered wooden door, Lu Yi stopped and looked around: "It should be here."
"Which house's corner door is this?" This summer, by the moonlight, I looked at the copper ring on the door, which was covered with a thin layer of gray-green patina, "... It's not often people walk around here."
While he was still talking, he saw Yi Jue spin lightly, and Lu Yi had already jumped up the high wall.
Looking up this summer, he saw the moonlight outline his handsome profile, which was slightly different from his usual icy appearance.
"Come up!"
Jin Xia was stunned, cleared his throat, raised his head and persuaded: "Sir, we are an official family, it's better not to do this kind of petty act of sneaking into the house."
Lu Yi was a little impatient: "This is where Zhou Xianji lived before his death."
"Oh..." This summer suddenly realized, but did not move, and continued, "Then why don't you wait until tomorrow, and let the world become clear..."
"Are you too weak to get up?" He interrupted her bluntly.
Jin Xia explained: "... It's not bad to be humble, but the wall is just a little bit higher."
He glanced at her unbearably, as if he didn't want to pay attention to her anymore, turned around and silently jumped into the wall, the surroundings were enveloped in silence again. This summer, he pricked up his ears and waited for a while. Except for the occasional insect chirping, he didn't hear any other movement. He guessed that Lu Yi thought she was too useless, so he simply left her here.
Well, you can go back to sleep!
"If there is nothing to do, I will retire first." This summer said in a low voice, no matter whether Lu Yi could hear it or not, of course it was better not to hear it.
As soon as she lifted her forefoot, she heard the black lacquered wooden door creaked open next to her, and Lu Yi stood inside the door with a blank expression.
"Twenty years ago, Yang Chengwan's Qinggong was one of the few in Jinyiwei. I really didn't expect the disciples he brought out to be so bad."
This summer, he opened his mouth. He wanted to refute a few words, but he couldn't help being curious and asked, "Did the boss used to be very powerful in Jinyiwei?"
Lu Yi glanced at her: "He never mentioned to you about the past?"
Regarding the past, Yang Chengwan has always kept a secret, the lines between the corners of his eyes and eyebrows are as deep as a knife and an axe, as if he had never been young...
"Twenty years ago, when you were still young, sir, so, was your lord telling you these things?" Thinking about the way Lu Yi talked to the boss before, he seemed to understand something this summer.
Lu Yi looked at her and raised his eyebrows slightly: "You are also a catcher anyway, have you never been suspicious?"
"Ling Zun also recognizes the boss?" This summer asked curiously.
"Did he just hide it from you? Or even with Yang Yue?" Lu Yi asked with a frown.
"What did Ling Zun say? What did you say?"
"… "
Lu Yi finally stopped, looking at this summer without saying anything. The conversation between the two was full of questions, but no one answered, and they were talking about each other.
"I'm asking you something." He said slowly.
"I know I know, you tell me first, what does Ling Zun say about the boss?" This summer, full of curiosity, he asked without realizing what was wrong, "What kind of official was the boss back then? He was taller than you. Is it? Is it particularly majestic?"
Not wanting to talk to her anymore, Lu Yi simply turned around and walked away.
"Hey! My lord, hey!... Don't talk about it."
This summer, I muttered and followed, thinking to myself: the official rank must be higher than you, you are afraid of losing face, so you refuse to say it.
At this time, the two of them were in a small courtyard, and after walking a few steps forward, they came to a small two-story building. There were no lights in the building, it was dark. Two tall phoenix trees are next to the building, with luxuriant branches and leaves, and the shadows of the trees sway in the night, like a hundred ghosts walking at night, adding a bit of gloom to the small building.
A gust of cold wind blew, and this summer involuntarily shrank his neck, and he heard the sound of clappers outside. It was the third watch.
"Third watch, just right." Lu Yi looked up at the closed window upstairs, and said lightly: "According to what is written on the autopsy grid, Zhou Xianji was hanged upstairs at the third watch."
Therefore, this Lord Jinyiwei came here in the middle of the night to... This summer, he said without thinking, "Master, do you want to try it too?"
Lu Yi ignored her and continued to say lightly, "The first seven."
I was stunned this summer, and suddenly remembered, yes, according to Zhou Xianji's death date, today is his first seven.
The first seven is the seventh day from the day the deceased died, also known as the Day of Resurrection. Legend has it that the spirits of the deceased wandered around after death, returning home on the first seven days before returning to the heavenly realm.
But what if today is the first seven
You can't expect Zhou Xian to show his soul and tell the whereabouts of the 100,000 taels of Xiuhe money
After a moment of silence, Jin Xia hesitantly said: "How can we say that we are also officials, investigating the case like this... Besides, Zibuyu is weird..."
"You don't believe me if you don't speak." Lu Yi stared at her, "You're not afraid of ghosts, are you?"
"Hey, how is it possible..." His throat was dry, and he cleared his throat with a "cough cough" this summer. "As a court hunter, I have a dignified and upright body, and I dare not approach him because of his charisma."
Lu Yi squinted at her: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
"Where."
