The eldest daughter of a peasant family: They are all my sisters’ passers-by

Yueya's heart was filled with gratitude. She understood that Lan Wangshu was comforting her, but she still felt the flourishing kindness.

"Okay, Yueya, I will definitely be able to make something to cover up the birthmark. When you get married, I will let you see a different you. In the future, when you raise your head, if anyone says anything about you, just tell them that Guihua County Master said you are beautiful."

Lan Wangshu waved her hand indifferently. This was a free model. She had long wanted to enter the beauty industry. In modern times, there were huge profits, but what about in this era?

Thinking of the silver money that kept coming into her hands, oh, she didn't dare to think about it. Lan Wangshu forced himself to suppress the corners of his mouth. Even with Mu Li, he couldn't be too presumptuous. If he laughed to the point of shaking, people would think he was crazy.

"Thank you County Lord."

Yueya's eyes lit up and she slowly looked up at Lan Wangshu. She couldn't see anything, but she just felt that Lan Wangshu must be a gentle and beautiful person.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, your reputation value has increased by one. ]

After Lan Wangshu sent the man away, he turned back to discuss the case of the murderous thief in Rucheng with Hua Qiming and Mo Yici.

She closed the door and asked Gao Qiao and Wu Yan to be alert to people approaching. The three of them sat around a round table.

"Could it be that I guessed wrong, and this person is not coming for me?"

Lan Wangshu was also a little confused, wondering if he was being too cautious and perhaps he just didn't have any feelings for her.

"I don't think so. The group of people who came to assassinate today are obviously not the same group as the ones who came to pick flowers before."

Hua Qiming kept tapping his palms with the fan, shaking his head, his brows slightly wrinkled.

"The group of people who came to assassinate this time didn't want the auction to start smoothly at all."

"So who are they?"

Lan Wangshu's understanding of the complexity of Dazhao's forces can only be said to be the tip of the iceberg.

"Of course they are from aristocratic families. Even though they are all here today, there must be someone behind the scenes. Aristocratic families are best at portraying themselves as a perfect gentleman."

Mo Yici gave the answer without hesitation, with disdain and a hint of hatred flashing in his eyes.

"Whose family would that be? I think the Cheng family is unlikely."

Lan Wangshu certainly agrees with Mo Yi's idea, but the scope is really difficult to define.

"How much do you know about the power of the family? You didn't accidentally provoke anyone, did you?"

Mo Yici seemed to have thought of something. Logically speaking, the noble family cherished the feathers and would not kill them for no reason. There were many ways to ruin an auction, but they chose to use the one that would take people's lives. It was hard not to think too much.

"I don't know. I only know that there are five great families today: the Cheng family of Yong'an, the Wen family of Yanzhou, the Liu family of Xichuan, the Sun family of Pingchong, and the Qi family of Nanliang."

Mo Yici couldn't believe his ears, his eyes widened.

"You are so bold. You dare to speak without knowing anything..."

Mo Yici thought of something and stopped what he was about to say. He turned the words around in his mouth and changed them when they came out.

"How dare you take over this auction directly? Are you crazy?"

Hua Qiming looked at Lan Wangshu meaningfully, and the girl just shrugged.

"Well, this is just a newborn calf that is not afraid of a tiger. Besides, the relationship between them is so complicated. How would I know what nerves were touched? Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. You guys go back first."

Lan Wangshu waved his hand and ordered them to leave.

"Young General, please go first. I am here to deal with this thief, so I have to say a few more words to the county lady."

Mo Yici looked at Lan Wangshu, and only when the girl nodded did he leave.

"You two have known each other for a long time."

After Mo Yici left, Hua Qiming remained silent and Lan Wangshu did not urge him. It was only when he was drowsy that the young man spoke.

"Why do you say that, Master Hua?"

Lan Wangshu lazily raised his eyelids and glanced at Hua Qiming.

Hua Qiming smiled helplessly, stretched out his fan and gently hit Lan Wangshu on the head.

"You believe a fool like Mo Yici, can he cover it up?"

Lan Wangshu felt that this action was somewhat intimate, so he took a step back in disgust, looked at Hua Qiming with a defensive look, and touched his head.

"Your real name is Lan Wangshu, right? Princess Guihua."

Hua Qiming looked at her with a smile, and Lan Wangshu felt a chill down her spine. She felt helpless too.

"If you know it, just know it. Why do you have to say it out loud? You can't let the whole world know."

"You seem to be so confident now, so why did you hide it from me?"

Hua Qiming was so angry that he laughed and gave her a cold look.

"I didn't hide it from you. You didn't ask me. Now that you ask me, don't I admit it?"

Lan Wangshu was of course justified and this made sense.

"Forget it. Who do you think came to assassinate you today?"

"Didn't I tell you? You are from an aristocratic family."

Lan Wangshu didn't care and lowered his head on the table. Hua Qiming felt like an old father who was worried about his daughter, but his daughter didn't care.

"Can you please be more respectful to them? They are here to kill you!"

Lan Wangshu raised his head helplessly and spread out his palms. What should he do?

"I know."

"Who do you suspect?"

Hua Qiming was too lazy to argue with her about these useless things. Lan Wangshu was not a fool and he must have some sense of propriety in his mind.

"It's either the Liu family or the Sun family. I just don't know who it is. When Zui Fusheng got into trouble, it was someone from one of them who did it. But the Cheng family can be ruled out as a suspect."

Lan Wangshu could see that the Minister of Personnel was courting her, but she couldn't guess what plans he, the head of a noble family, had for a woman like her. She was covered so tightly today, it definitely couldn't be because of her beauty.

"Then what is the purpose of this flower-stealing thief?"

Hua Qiming closed his eyes slightly and muttered to himself, which made Lan Wangshu yawn.

"No, he should be coming for you."

???

Lan Wangshu was somewhat confused when she heard his firm conclusion. She didn't quite understand how he reached that conclusion.

"Why?"

"Because at this time, no government officials are taking action."

Lan Wangshu looked at the sky. Yes, how could she have overlooked that the flower-stealing thief would dump the body every evening. If he insisted on doing this all the time, it would always be like this.

"So, he showed up at Zui Fu Sheng today, but he never had a chance because he was on the second floor when I was not at the venue."

"Not only that, Takahashi's move today might have made him back off."

Hua Qiming thought about it and started to narrow the scope. There were not many people he could suspect, and this person must have been conflicted when he left.
