The General is Pregnant: His Majesty Abstinence and Sexual Devotion Every Night

Chapter 136 Seeing Xiangxiang Again

There has been almost no change here. Of course, after the incident, the person who died was still Zhang Qing, the current priest of Guantian Temple, and the one who killed him was Mu You, the newly appointed chief courtesan of Yihong Tower who was in the limelight in the capital recently.

This matter has become quite a big deal. It is said that Mrs. Zhang Qing, who was resting last night, learned that her lustful husband was murdered in the room of a courtesan. His death was so miserable. Thinking that she would become the laughing stock of the whole capital tomorrow, Mrs. Zhang immediately got up from her couch and rushed to Yihong Tower overnight.

Seeing Zhang Qing's body lying motionless on the ground, Mrs. Zhang fainted as expected and has not woken up yet.

Zhang Qing's body was lying on the couch beside him, his body slightly twisted, his head cut off, his five fingers twitching, and after a night, his face was pale, the color of a dead person. Looking closely, he found that the index finger of his left hand had been chopped off alive, which he knew from his eyes wide open, which he had not closed when he died.

Ji Rang stood up beside Gu Junqing, with a rare look of contemplation on his face.

Gu Junqing, who was standing aside, just glanced at Zhang Qing for a few seconds and then came to Mu You, who was a little distance away from Zhang Qing's body.

To be honest, there was nothing much to see. It was just Mu You killing someone with his own hands and then committing suicide.

But Gu Junqing still subconsciously took a few more glances, and then when he really couldn't see or think of anything, he turned his attention to Ji Rang beside him. After all, he didn't know as much as he did. Gu Junqing could recall everything that happened in his previous life, although some of them were not very clear, he could still follow the clues and find clues. But for Ji Rang, what was happening now was clearly nonsensical.

It's not so soon to go to southern Fujian now. Wouldn't it be faster if Gu Junqing took some time out to look for it with Ji Rang before everything is ready?

What's more, he didn't know why Mu You wanted to kill Zhang Qing. He just knew that Mu You would silence him sooner or later.

At this time, Ji asked him to walk to her side. His gentle gaze remained unchanged, but there was a hint of inquiry in his eyes, and it seemed that he still had doubts about her.

Gu Junqing looked at him calmly. She really didn't know, and as long as she didn't admit it, there was nothing Ji Rang could do to her.

Thinking this in her heart, Gu Junqing didn't want to waste any more time. She shifted her gaze to the mother of Yihonglou who was standing behind them and looking at them tremblingly, but she spoke to Ji Rang beside her:

"From what we have seen, why does Lord Ji think Mu You killed Zhang Qing?"

Gu Junqing asked casually, but Ji Rang asked half-jokingly and half-seriously:

"It can't be a murder of passion, right?" How would I know?

He wanted to test it, but Gu Junqing knew nothing about it, so he had no choice but to go along with his joke and responded perfunctorily: "Maybe."

Seeing the perfunctory attitude in her eyes, Ji Rang felt a little bored, so he had to put aside his tentative thoughts and walked towards the mother of Yihonglou.

Now both of them know that the courtesan Mu You is Chu You.

As a priest of Guantian Temple, Zhang Qing has no relationship with the courtesan Mu You, and on the surface, there is no offense between them.

Then we can only focus on whether there is any connection between the two of them when Mu You was still a young lady from the Chu family.

The two walked to the side of Yihonglou's mother and asked her to sit on a chair.

The mother of Yihonglou didn't know what the two adults in front of her were going to do, but they asked her to sit down. Even though she saw them standing, the mother of Yihonglou was still very nervous and didn't dare to disobey and sat down.

But his body was shaking, for he was afraid that he would displease one of the two and lose his life.

"Miss Mu You has met Lord Zhang before, or has something dirty happened between the two of them?"

It was Ji Rang who asked the question.

The mother of Yihonglou naturally knew who the person in front of her was, so she didn't dare to use any tricks and said honestly that she had never seen the two of them have any private contact, except for the day when her virginity was bought.

In just one day, Mu You developed such a deep hatred for Zhang Qing that he was not afraid of death and was determined to kill Zhang Qing, a minister in the court, regardless of his own future.

That was too crazy. Both of them couldn't believe that Mu You was such an impulsive person.

They prefer the latter.

The two had known each other for a long time, or it could be said that Mu You knew Zhang Qing, and in the past, Zhang Qing had done something to Mu You, or something else.

They cannot jump to conclusions easily.

They asked the mother of Yihonglou again, and seeing how scared she was and her frightened expression didn't seem fake, as if she wanted to dig out her heart and lungs to prove her innocence, Gu Junqing and the others let her go and didn't ask any more questions.

The mother of Yihonglou really knew nothing.

So the two had to turn their attention to Zhang Qing's wife, but at this time Mrs. Zhang was still in a coma, so the two did not go to Zhang's house so quickly, but stayed here and continued to interrogate other witnesses.

The only maids who have always been following Mu You and serving her are you two, one is called Chunxiao and the other is Chunxi.

It's just that these two were only assigned to Mu You as two maids when she became the oiran. They stayed with Mu You for no more than twenty days in total. Apart from daily grooming and dressing, Mu You was a man of few words and would not say much to these two maids.

The two who had returned empty-handed stood at the entrance of Yihong Building, and were about to leave when suddenly someone ran down from upstairs, knelt down in front of them, and kowtowed, saying a long string of words:

"My Lords, I may know something about why Miss Mu You wanted to kill Lord Zhang. Last night, when Sister Mu You went to Lord Zhang's box, she seemed to be meeting someone..."

Having said this, the person in front of him paused deliberately, raised his naturally charming and affectionate eyes, and looked at them timidly, as if he was afraid that he would say something wrong.

When the woman in front of him raised her head, Gu Junqing recognized that this person was the other courtesan, Miss Xiangxiang, who wanted to do something bad to him the last time they came here.

Obviously, Ji Rang beside him also recognized him, but that was all. His expression did not change at all. He still maintained a businesslike attitude. His gentle gaze disappeared and turned cold. His tone was also a little impatient:

"Just tell it to the person, whether it was a woman or a man at the time"

Seeing Ji Rang's expression, Miss Xiang Xiang didn't dare to procrastinate any further and said directly:

"man"
