Back to the day I married my second wife, I turned around and married my ex-husband's uncle

Just when she subconsciously wanted to hide.

Suddenly a hand reached out and instantly caught the arrow.

Ling Jinlan's face turned pale and he fell to the ground.

"Jinlan!"

Qin Huaizhao slowly put down his hand and looked out the door with sharp eyes.

The archer was quickly captured without struggling at all.

"Who are you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure followed in, and Zhou Lin walked in aggressively.

"I had someone shoot the arrow!"

Zhou Lin fixed his gaze on Ling Chaowen and his sister, his eyes filled with murderous intent. "Master Qin, there's no need to investigate. Something must have happened to my son!"

"They are not suspects, they are murderers!"

Qin Huaizhao stood in front of Ling Jinlan with a serious and angry expression.

"Commander Zhou brazenly shot Ling Jinlan?"

"I will report this matter to His Majesty truthfully!"

Zhou Lin said coldly: "Whatever you want!"

"I just want to find out what happened to my son!"

After saying that, he walked towards Ling Jinlan and looked at her fiercely, "Where is my son!"

Ling Jinlan was still in shock from the arrow and shook his head palely, "I don't know..."

Zhou Lin's expression suddenly changed. He raised his hand and grabbed Ling Jinlan's collar. "Don't try to trick me! You know martial arts, and you're still pretending!"

"Did you kill my son?"

Zhou Jingxuan has never disappeared for such a long time without saying a word. He hasn't returned home for so many days. He must have met with an accident!

"Let go! Let go!"

Ling Chaowen was extremely anxious and tried to pry Zhou Jingxuan's hands apart, but he was not as strong as him.

Ling Jinlan was so panicked that tears fell.

His red eyes were filled with grievance.

Qin Huaizhao's heart tightened at that moment, and he was furious. He pulled Zhou Lin away.

He raised the sword in his hand to block Zhou Lin.

"If Commander Zhou interrupts me again while I'm working on a case, don't blame me for being rude!"

Looking at Qin Huaizhao's fierce expression, Zhou Lin didn't dare to rush forward. If he really offended him, who would investigate the case?

"Sir Qin, the Emperor has entrusted this case to you because he trusts you to find out the truth in the shortest possible time. I hope you won't disappoint the Emperor!"

After Zhou Lin finished speaking, he gave Ling Jinlan and Ling Chaowen a meaningful look, "These two don't know martial arts, they're just pretending!"

"Master Qin, please be careful."

After saying that, Zhou Lin left angrily.

He lay in ambush outside specifically to test Ling Jinlan and Ling Chaowen's martial arts, but he didn't expect to be stopped by Qin Huaizhao.

Ling Chaowen was furious. He put his arm around Ling Jinlan's shoulders and comforted her, "If Zhou Jingxuan really ran away from the marriage, then you don't have to get married."

"Marrying into a family like this is like jumping into a fire pit."

Qin Huaizhao slowly turned around and met Ling Jinlan's tearful eyes. He still felt a little uncomfortable, so he looked away.

"Will you allow me to search the house?"

"Clear the case as soon as possible so that you can be cleared of all charges."

Ling Chaowen's heart tightened, and he nodded, "Search."

Qin Huaizhao waved his hand, and the people outside immediately rushed into the yard and searched one by one.

During the search, Jiang Ningwan and Qin Wenli rushed to Qushui Town.

Qin Huaizhao was busy searching and looking for clues everywhere, and did not greet them.

Jiang Ningwan and a few others were sitting in the pavilion.

"Why is Jinlan crying?"

Ling Chaowen said coldly, "Zhou Lin came here and shot an arrow."

"If Qin Huaizhao hadn't been here, Jinlan would have been dead."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ningwan and Qin Wenli's expressions changed.

I knew Zhou Lin was coming, but I didn't expect Zhou Lin to kill people directly.

Jiang Ningwan thought about it and thought that maybe he wanted to test Ling Jinlan's martial arts.

I had tried it before at the Prince of Chu's Mansion, but I didn't expect him to be suspicious again.

Qin Wenli looked at Qin Huaizhao, who was checking the bushes, with a worried look on his face. "Qin Huaizhao, the Crown Prince of Rong, has risen to the position of Junior Secretary of the Dali Temple at such a young age."

"We've solved hundreds of cases, big and small."

"He's a man of integrity and stubbornness. With this case in his hands, I'm afraid he won't stop until he gets to the bottom of it."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan also felt a little worried.

I didn't have much interaction with Qin Huaizhao in my previous life, but I knew that he was being promoted all the way and would soon become the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple.

In Zhou Jingxuan’s case, the truth must not be uncovered.

Seeing Jiang Ningwan's worry, Ling Jinlan quietly patted the back of her hand to reassure her.

All traces in the house have been cleared away, leaving no trace of blood.

Qin Huaizhao checked all the way to the inner courtyard.

Jiang Ningwan and others followed immediately.

Somehow, Qin Huaizhao stood in the yard for a while, and then entered Ling Jinlan's room by instinct.

The room was also being searched.

Qin Huaizhao looked at the ground, squatted down and touched it, "It's spotless, have you cleaned it recently?"

The voice carried a strong sense of oppression.

Jiang Ningwan responded immediately, "Because Jinlan is ill, her skin is extremely sensitive. Too much dust will make her feel even more uncomfortable, so the room is cleaned every day."

Qin Huaizhao didn't say anything.

After checking around, I found it was very clean, without any clues. It was unusually clean, as if it had been specially cleaned.

"Did you change the bedding?"

Qin Huaizhao's sudden question made Ling Jinlan's heart suffocate.

"Master Qin even noticed this?"

Qin Huaizhao turned around and glanced at Ling Jinlan. "You smell like magnolia, and the room smells like magnolia too, but the bedding smells different. Did they just get changed?"

If used for a long time, the bedding should also be stained with the scent of magnolia.

Ling Jinlan nodded, "It was just changed not long ago."

"Bedding touches my skin, which affects how long my rash will last, so my sister told me to pay special attention and change it every three days."

Qin Huaizhao nodded thoughtfully, which was reasonable.

The room was quickly searched and nothing unusual was found.

The other rooms were quickly searched but no clues were found.

There seemed to be no trace of Zhou Jingxuan having been in the house.

Qin Huaizhao prepared to leave.

"I will be staying in Qushui Town for the time being and may come to visit again. I'm sorry to bother Duke Ling."

Ling Chaowen nodded, "No problem!"

Qin Wenli said, "I'd also like to learn more about Zhou Jingxuan's case. Sir Qin, do you mind if I go along?"

"Your Highness, please do as you please."

Then Qin Wenli left with Qin Huaizhao.

After sending Qin Huaizhao away, Ling Chaowen breathed a sigh of relief, "This guy is really hard to deal with."

"But it's better for him to stay in Qushui Town, so that Zhou Lin won't send someone to assassinate him."

Jiang Ningwan frowned, "He can even smell the fragrance. This person is really hard to deal with."

She didn't even notice the fragrance on Jinlan.

Ling Jinlan also raised her arm and sniffed, "I have a sachet with magnolia scent, but it's not that obvious."

Jiang Ningwan was worried. "This guy wants to stay in Qushui Town to investigate. It means he still suspects you."

"I don't know how long he'll be here investigating. I have other things to do."

She was anxious, wondering when she could go to Yundu Mountain.

Ling Jinlan quickly said: "Sister, if you have something to do, go and do it."

"Qin Huai, let me handle it!"
