Lintai Storm Record

Any other plans? "

Song Qian's hand was pinching his neck.

Baiyue took over to help him knead his neck, and then pinched his tight and stiff shoulders along the neck. She looked at Song Qianzhi's shoulders and her cheeks blushed slightly.

"I'll do it myself." Song Qianzhi thumped his shoulder twice with his backhand, sat down on the edge of the bed, stared at the ground blankly, after a long time, he asked Baiyue: "Why did my mother marry Marquis Anding?"

At this time, Baiyue knew that he should not answer the call.

Song Qianzhi didn't need anyone to answer. He closed his eyes and said in a very soft voice, "What the hell is marriage? If you marry someone, shouldn't you treat her well? Otherwise, why bother to get married? A big set of red tape, isn't it troublesome to have multiple people around you?"

After Song Qianzhi turned 16 years old, nine out of ten times he entered the palace, and the Empress Dowager Zhou would ask him if he had a crush on any girl.That year, Song Qianzhi had just straightened out the secretary affairs, and he was not thinking about marrying a wife at all. The old lady showed him a portrait of a lady in the capital. , let the old lady not bother.

With a soft sound, the door closed and the lights in the room were turned off.

Song Qianzhi turned over with the quilt in his arms, his body sweating a little, and countless thoughts were running around in his mind, all of which were countless collisions with the Song family since childhood.Suddenly, Song Qianzhi realized that he never regarded himself as the Song family, even though he had this surname.

When he was young, his mother often took him to his grandfather's house. His grandfather was a very good old man, but he never doted on Song Qianzhi. He taught him to read and write. What Song Qianzhi liked most was when he was writing. The ancestral home has visitors.At this time, he would sneak away to see his grandparents to meet guests. This was the first time Song Qianzhi established an impression of "literati".

Those literati who came and went to the grandfather's house were all important ministers in the court, and they spoke with style, and what they said and what they said made Song Qianzhi full of curiosity and admiration.

In Song Qianzhi's memory, Marquis Anding had a big quarrel with his mother. He was still very young at that time, and he didn't know exactly why at the time, but after that, his mother never gave Marquis Anding a good face again. .Xiao Song Qianzhi's concept of right and wrong was very simple at that time, he would treat anyone who was good to his mother, and whoever bullied his mother would be a big villain.

Besides, Marquis Anding is not at home all year round.

Song Qianzhi grew up to be eleven or twelve years old, and became familiar with the sons of high officials in the capital. He gradually heard that Marquis Anding settled down in a home outside. There was also a son in that family, and that son was older than him. His son-in-law is even older.

This is called Biezhaiwomen in Dachu. During the time of the first emperor, he twice decreed that Beijing officials should not set up another family outside the government. The children born to Biezhaiwomen are also not allowed to be naturalized, let alone be included in the genealogy and divide their father's property.

It's just that after the death of the first emperor, the new emperor did not strictly prohibit it. This phenomenon is quite a bit of a spring breeze.

Song Qianzhi has been in charge of the Secretary Province for four years, and he knows that many high officials in Beijing have other housewives, and there are still people in the Hanlin Academy who have other housewives who are concubines who have not been abandoned by other families.He sighed softly, if the Song family didn't mention the matter of letting his eldest brother recognize his ancestors, he didn't want to tear himself apart with his father.

However, the fading of family affection is every bit of it. These years, he watched his biological father live in a foreign house for more than 300 days a year, and his mother was ill for a long time. Say hello.When Song Qianzhi was still young, every time Zhou Wanxin went to say hello, the old lady would warmly welcome her in to talk, and even in rainy and snowy days, she would ask the old woman beside her to hold an umbrella in person.I don't know from which year, Zhou Wanxin went to see the old lady, but the old lady always said that she hadn't gotten up yet.

One snowy day, Zhou Wanxin was standing outside the old lady's house, with the dowry maid holding an umbrella for her.

It was already dark when Song Qianzhi returned to the mansion, if it wasn't for a lantern shaking, he wouldn't have seen anyone there at all.His mother was standing there, and the old lady's close-serving mother-in-law blocked the door with a cold face.

The room was brightly lit, Song Qianzhi felt strange, when he walked over, he saw a young woman coming out, the maid gave her a food box, and sent her out of the house along the corridor.

Song Qianzhi, who was sleeping soundly, took a deep breath and opened his eyes from the nightmare. The young woman looked at him shyly, her face seemed to be still in front of his eyes, she was the "sister-in-law" he would never recognize.

"Master." The boy on duty at night lit up the lamp.

Song Qianzhi pressed his painfully swollen forehead, asked the time, it was only four o'clock, he drank his saliva, lay down and fell asleep again.

Early the next morning, Song Qianzhi received a list sent by Marquis Anding, asking him to write a post.Song Qianzhi stuck the list in a book casually, put it on the table and went out to the secretary department.

Zhou Xian went to the palace early, and when Song Qianzhi arrived, he had already checked out the list of items that Lou Jiangyue had received in the palace, and Lu Guan had obviously seen it too.Seeing Song Qianzhi walking in, Lu Guan came up and wanted to ask why it was so late.

But seeing that his complexion was not very good, he didn't ask.

Zhou first showed the list to Song Qianzhi.

"Is this tea not available outside?" Lu Guan confirmed with Song Qianzhi again.

"It's absolutely impossible to buy it outside. If you don't believe me, Master Lu can send someone to the market to ask." Song Qianzhi said casually. He took a sip of the strong tea that had been brewed, and frowned bitterly. "These two cases are on the hook." gone."

"Did Wang Zaoguo say that Lou Jiangyue went to see Qin Mingxue that afternoon when Lou Jiangyue was murdered?" Lu Guan asked.

"Yes, I met her." Song Qianzhi glanced at Zhou Xian.

Zhou Xian immediately asked: "Do you want to check on this Qin Mingxue?" Then he went out consciously.

Lu Guan was speechless: "Aren't you playing with him?"

Song Qianzhi lost his mind, looked at Lu Guan and asked, "What kind of tea does Mr. Lu usually drink?"

"what?"

"I have some good tea leaves there, and I can't finish them every year. Would you like to eat some, Mr. Lu?" Song Qianzhi also felt that he was funny, and laughed.

Lu Guan thought he was joking, got up and patted his robe, showing a martial air.

"Is that teapot in Lou Jiangyue's room still there?" Song Qianzhi thought about it carefully, and he remembered seeing a teapot on the table when he went to Yingchun Garden.

"I've checked the teapot, and it's not poisonous."

This coincided with Song Qianzhi's thoughts. He and Lu Guan went out together, with the goal of going to the Ministry of Criminal Justice. There is no need to communicate with each other. Since Lin Shutong's case has been connected, it makes no sense to ask Wang Zaoguo, but he doesn't know. Ask the murderer in Lin Shutong's case.

On the way, Lu Guancai asked Song Qianzhi why he put Wang Zaoguo in the secretary province, but didn't bring the dancer here.

"There is a special place for female prisoners, and the entire secretarial department is full of men." Song Qianzhi explained, took out a pine nut candy, handed it to Lu Guan, and glanced at him: "Do you want to eat?"

"Do not……"

Song Qianzhi changed hands and fed it into his own mouth.

"eat."

Song Qianzhi was thinking about things all the way, leaving Lu Guan Leng aside, his mind seemed to be on the axle and couldn't stop.Lou Jiangyue went to the Pipa Garden that day and drank someone else's poisonous health tea, but he went to see Qin Mingxue, the murderer in the Lin case was not Qin Mingxue, why is there poison in Qin Mingxue's tea?Even if Qin Mingxue and Lou Jiangyue were not on good terms, they should have a very good relationship. Did she know that there was poison in the tea for Lou Jiangyue to drink, or did she not know anything?If Qin Mingxue didn't know anything, then the key to this tea was not Lou Jiangyue but Qin Mingxue.

There was a possibility that was about to come out, Song Qianzhi heard the sound of the wheels in his ears, and his thoughts stopped with a click.

His eyes fell on Lu Guan's face.Lu Guan used to be a sinner. The queen mother said that he was sacrificed by Fu Mingshao. This sacrifice made Lu Guan guilty. Then for what crime was he sent to Quzhou?Why Quzhou?Fu Mingshao's base camp is in Quzhou. Now that Lu Guan has been abandoned, he can be dispatched farther to the frontier to do hard labor as cannon fodder.

Lu Guan couldn't stand being stared at by Song Qianzhi, and looked at him: "Master Song, do you have something to say?"

"The scar on your face was originally not for 'sin', but for 'rape', right?"

"Yes, Master Song, what else do you want to ask?"

It was Song Qianzhi's turn to be stunned.Lu Lu smiled connivingly, rubbing the scar on his face with his thumb, and said calmly: "That year I fucked a beautiful 13-year-old boy, and the one left behind, the boy is very weak, I heard that he went back and lay down for three days. Months, Master Song want to try it?"

The author has something to say: change a small place

☆, Lou Jiangyue (eight)

Song Qianzhi twitched his eyebrows and laughed: "Really? I just heard that the word 'rape' is tattooed on the face if the victim is a teenager. Twenty sticks more, it hurts so badly, it should be released after being locked up for two years. It's unheard of to say the tattoo."

Lu Guan's eyes moved.

Before he could speak, Song Qianzhi thought of going elsewhere, sat up straight and asked Lu Guan, "What do you think is in that envelope?"

Lu Guan: "..."

"Lou Jiangyue is in the palace. Before the Shangyuan Festival is over, he will have the opportunity to face the saint at any time. He has been taken into the palace for so many days. Why was he killed at such a time? And Lin Shutong was killed when he was killed. He was poisoned to death the next day, which seems a bit too coincidental. These two cases have one thing in common, they are both involved in the palace. These days, there seems to be no major incidents in the court." Song Qianzhi analyzed, "What is it? Why is there such a coincidence?"

"That letter is the key." Lu Guan said, "It's just that there is still something that doesn't make sense."

Song Qianzhi said seriously: "If you want to find that letter, I'm afraid it has been destroyed."

"And there is a strange place." Speaking of business, Lu Guan became serious.

Song Qianzhi also thought of it, he quietly watched Lu Guan, and listened to what he said first.

"There was only an empty envelope in the cabinet. We speculated that there was something inside, because the seal of the envelope was stained with blood. Lou Jiangyue was tied to a chair and killed. Of the three cuts, the fatal one was the one in the chest. In the end, when he was found, he was on a chair. That is to say, Lou Jiangyue was first tied to the chair. He broke free halfway and climbed to the cabinet, so there would be blood in the cabinet. Finally, he returned to the chair During the process, he was tied up and killed." Lu Guan continued, "All the blood near the cabinet was removed, and only a small piece remained, which was not easy to detect. It can be inferred that the murderer was very careful, but the cleaning time was limited to the lack of time. He was very careful. He was in a hurry and flustered, and didn’t notice that there was a piece that was not wiped clean. In a hurry, why didn’t he just take away all the things in the cabinet, but took out the things inside alone. If he was in a hurry, he just took all the things out Take it away, and there is no way to check it. That envelope is the biggest problem."

Song Qianzhi nodded and said, "I also agree that he was stabbed to death twice, but I don't think he was tied up at the beginning. He may have been tied up, or he was unable to resist at the time."

Lu Guan said, "Maybe he inhaled a small amount of drugs."

"Yes, assuming that after the victim was stabbed for the first time, he climbed to the side of the cabinet. The murderer should not be there at this time, otherwise the victim could not have climbed so far and the murderer remained indifferent. That means the murderer has returned. The murderer has returned The reason is probably to take the letter. Either he set up a trap for the victim, pretended to leave, and waited for the victim to find the letter before entering the house and killing him. Or he forgot something and came back Take it, the envelope is empty, if there is something in it, the murderer forgot to take it, it is probably the letter. After getting the letter, the victim can die."

Lu Guan frowned: "There is still something that doesn't make sense."

Song Qianzhi deeply felt the same, took a deep breath, put his hands into his sleeves, moved his chin, and rubbed against the fur collar of his clothes.

"We also speculated that there was something in the envelope. The blood on it alone can't explain the problem. Maybe it was an empty envelope. But you are right, if the murderer is eager to remove something, once the blood outside the cabinet is removed, it can delay it." When he found the envelope hidden in the cabinet, even when the case was settled like the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he never thought of opening the locked cabinet. The blood in the cabinet should be that after Lou Jiangyue was stabbed for the first time, he was looking for something. It was left behind, so there was blood on the envelope, and the blood outside the cabinet was removed by the murderer, leaving only a small piece, because the murderer didn't take good care of it in his panic."

After a pause, Song Qianzhi said again: "The doubt is that the murderer can take away all the personal belongings belonging to the victim in the house directly. It is easy and not easy to leave traces. Why would he only take away the things in the envelope. Cabinet The murderer must have seen the blood in the letter when he was looking for something. Is it because it was too late to remove it?" Song Qianzhi thought, "We can interrogate Wang Zaoguo again, and he may know what the letter is. If he doesn't know , Qin Mingxue may also know, and at the same time, we can send Zhou Xian to find Lou Jiangyue's luggage that was taken away."

"The capital has been locked down, no one can go out, Lou Jiangyue's things will always be dealt with, I hope they are not thrown into the cesspit." Lu Guan said expressionlessly.

Song Qianzhi made up his mind about the scene where Zhou Xian went to dig other people's cesspit, and felt that he didn't want it.

"Burn it or bury it, or throw it in the garbage, you can check it." Song Qianzhi said.

Lu Guan couldn't help but look at Song Qianzhi differently.

"Master Song, for the sake of being officials in the same dynasty as you and me, I have a word."

"Master Lu, please tell me."

"Don't be too concerned about my personal affairs. Who I was in the past has nothing to do with you."

Song Qianzhi smiled: "Isn't it just that a lot of people have fallen asleep, so I don't ask."

It was Lu Guan's turn to be depressed, he didn't want to explain clearly, and he didn't want to be misunderstood.

Fortunately, when the carriage stopped at this time, Song Qianzhi got out of the carriage first, tightened his cloak, and looked up at the dark sky.

"God, it's going to snow again." Lu Guan complained.

Song Qian raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, at this moment Lu Guan seemed to be a living person.

From the head of the cell to the guards are all men, and most of the prisoners are locked in a room of three or five, sleeping all over the bunk.The female prisoners can't lift their shoulders or hands, and they don't have to go out to work during the day, and the number of them is not very large. No more than [-] people are locked up here.

As soon as he walked into the prison, there was a sour smell.

"Didn't you say that there are no female prisoners in the Secretary's Department because there are men all over?" Lu Guan asked Song Qianzhi in a low voice.

"Yeah, I'm talking nonsense, and I haven't been arrested." Song Qianzhi also answered him in a low voice.

Lu Guan: "..."

The sound of footsteps came to every cell. Some of the prisoners were sleeping, some were pulling straw from the floor to weave things, some were playing with their own hair, and some were playing with other people's hair.

Most of them leaned their backs against the wall, peeping at the two adults as they passed.

Walking to the innermost row, it is no longer separated by railings, but there are six prison cells with iron doors.The cell boss nodded and bowed and asked Song Qianzhi and the others to wait, opened the second door, and led a jailer in first.

Song Qianzhi looked in through the window on the door.

Seeing that the female prisoner was tied hands and feet, the jailer and the cell leader lifted her up and made her kneel down, then let her go and opened the cell door.

"If adults ask questions here, it's not easy to record."

Lu Guan waved his hand: "It's none of your business, go down."

The jailer looked at Song Qianzhi.

Song Qianzhi smiled and gave him a small piece of broken silver.

"The little one is right outside, you can tell me something."

Lu Guan watched the cell boss and the jailer go out in disgust, and heard the sound of locking the door.

"Fu Yunying?" Lu Guan called out the prisoner's name.

The man on the ground looked very weak, disheveled, and the livery was dirty. I don’t know how many prisoners had worn it. His arms and sleeves were torn in several places. Welts protruded from his neck. His arms were also bruised and purple, which may be from torture. However, he was still abused.

Lu Guan frowned when he saw it.

Song Qianzhi tugged at his sleeve, shook his head invisibly, then let go, and said nonchalantly, "Lord Lu is the presiding judge, please."

Hearing this, Fu Yunying trembled all over, raised her unbelievable eyes, ecstasy mixed with despair, and suddenly touched her head to the ground.

Song Qianzhi was a little distracted when she looked up, this is a peerless beauty.Song Qianzhi often had the opportunity to be given a banquet in the palace. He had seen Lin Shutong's performance before, but he had never seen this one in front of him. Suddenly, in such a cold and dark prison cell, he saw such a bright and moving picture. face, Song Qianzhi's heart trembled, and then he couldn't help sighing secretly.

"I was wronged, my lord, I was wronged, I didn't kill anyone, my lord, please make the decision for me, my lord, make the decision for me, make the decision for me..." Tears rolled down Fu Yunying's face, and there was a trace of tears in her eyes. Endured to the extreme madness.

Seeing her like this, Song Qianzhi probably understood that she had suffered a lot in this prison, and he might not be able to stay there for a day.

"As long as what you tell is the truth, I will make the decision for you." Lu Guan said.

Fu Yunying's eyes lit up, and she nodded her head like a catfish: "I will definitely tell the truth, tell the truth... Sir, what do you want to ask? I found Lin Shutong, but..."

Song Qianzhi interrupted her at the right time.

"Listen, when our lord asks you something, you answer it. When we don't ask you, don't rush to cry for grievances. If you really have grievances, the most upright Lord Lu in the world will definitely make the decision for you. Do you understand? ?”

The prison was originally very quiet, but Song Qianzhi's words were gentle, yet firm and powerful.

The cell leader outside the door and the jailer looked at each other, and the jailer walked lightly and quietly left the cell.

Half an hour later, the cell boss heard the sound inside stopped, yawned, and glanced in through the window on the door, just in time for Lu Guan's falcon-like eyes who came up, and his scalp and toes were all tingling immediately. It's completely cool.

The cell head unlocked and pulled the door open.

After Lu Guan came out, Song Qianzhi also came out, and the cell boss still preferred to deal with this gentle and elegant young master, so he just stared at him and listened to his orders.

Song Qianzhi said: "Let her go, this case is now being taken over by the Secretary. The emperor sent a Qilin Guard to be a jury. Today, the Lord Qilin Guard went to the palace to investigate the matter of the Pipa Garden, so he didn't come. These few days If there is a need, that Lord Qilinwei will accompany us, Lord Lu."

The cell leader broke out in a cold sweat and quickly said yes.

Lu Guan and Song Qianzhi walked out of the women's prison, got into the carriage, and went to another prison several miles away.

In the car, Lu Guan watched Song Qianzhi several times.

The corners of Song Qianzhi's mouth curled up slightly, and he explained: "The emperor has sent Qilin guards for you. Just use them to make good use of them. No one in the capital knows that the Qilin guards are the eyes and ears of the emperor. " His eyes turned cold, "The jailers in this place are not good people. Some people are like this. Bullying the weak makes them happy."

"Sooner or later, they will be dealt with," Lu Guan said.

Song Qianzhi glanced at him.

"Then, Master Lu, please work harder to investigate these two cases clearly, and follow the emperor's wishes to investigate clearly. Only if you survive yourself can you have the opportunity to punish those who deserve punishment."

"The emperor's intention is to find out the truth of these two cases." Lu Guan was impatient.

"Then find out." Song Qianzhi didn't want to say more, he already had a basic understanding of Lu Guan, and Lu Guan's focus on the case was correct, but he was not familiar with the officialdom.

Large flakes of snow fell on the carport, and the two people in the car could hear it clearly, the sound was like thunder.

"If Fu Yunying hadn't lied, there would be nothing to find out about this line." After a while, Lu Guan said.

Song Qianzhi felt that this was a signal to seek peace, but he was tacit and did not open his mouth to ridicule Lu Guan.

"When she went back the night before, Lin Shutong had already fallen asleep and did not speak to her. She was found dead early the next morning. She was the last person to see Lin Shutong, but she could not prove her innocence. To save this woman, we must find the real murderer."

Lu Guan: "Who said I want to save her."

Song Qianzhi: "It's not you who want to save her, but I who want to save her, okay?"

Lu Guan choked on a word.

"You know her?" Lu Guan asked.Song Qianzhi is the son of Marquis Anding, and he is also related to the Queen Mother by blood, so it must not be difficult to enter and leave the palace.

"I don't know." Song Qianzhi closed his eyes, and put together in his mind what he read in the file and what he found in the past few days.

Suddenly, the carriage jolted, and Song Qianzhi threw himself into Lu Guan's arms without warning.

Lu Guan was in a hurry, Song Qianzhi's nose and lips brushed against the skin of his neck.

Song Qianzhi sat down quickly, yelled at the coachman, told him to drive more steadily, and apologized to Lu Guan.

Lu Guan hummed lightly, his neck was flushed to the base of his ears, and he casually opened the car window to let the snow wind in and let out the stuffy heat in the car.

After seeing Fu Yunying, Lu Guan and Song Qianzhi went to interrogate Li Tong again.

Li Tong was born tall, but with a slender frame and a sharp-mouthed monkey cheek. He didn't seem to have suffered much in prison, and he didn't have any visible injuries on his body.

Li Tong complained incessantly: "My lord, you have learned that Xiaomin has been wronged to the extreme. The 500 taels I brought were to go to Xianxi to buy cloth. Several bosses asked for it. Even a trip to Xiaomin won't make much money. If you go out so far, you must bring some money. If you want to run away, the rice and cloth shops opened by Xiaomin are all in the capital. If you can run away from the shopkeeper, you can’t run away from the shop. If I flee in fear of crime, I will be hit by thunder Boom, when I died, there was a lot of feces and urine, and after I died, the dogs ate my body."

"Okay, don't insult the dog." Lu Guan interrupted him.

Song Qian smiled belatedly.

Li Tong had a bitter face: "Thanks to the two adults, the adults who saved lives must make decisions for Xiaomin. Xiaomin and that Fu Yunying have met each other several times, but it was just for show. Girls all have such small fans. Xiaomin was also in a daze for a while, and the lard got in my heart. From now on, Xiaomin will never dare to go in and out of romantic places, so he didn't have to cause this terrible disaster There are old and young in my family. The whole family is waiting for me to support. My wife has to take medicine all the year round. Being a man is so hard. I have to find ways to make money all day long. Farmers, businessmen, do some small business, they are inferior to others, and no one will look at us seriously. There is no place to complain when we enter here. Today, we can count on the arrival of Master Qingtian. What adults want to ask, Xiaomin will never say a word falsehood."

"Where were you the night Lin Shutong was killed? What did you do?" Lu Guan began to ask.

Li Tong was in the posture of beating his chest and stamping his feet again, but when Song Qianzhi gave him a cold glance, his feet softened immediately.He was uncuffed hand and foot, and was taken to a special room for interrogation, and the Ministry of Punishment also assigned Song Qian a master recorder.

"Xiaomin has already answered many times. Xiaomin was not in the capital that night. He lived in an inn on the way out of the city, the one in Shilipo. If you want to go to the ferry, you must pass there. You can ask the owner of the inn for the name of the inn. It’s called Xilaiju, and there’s a horizontal plaque on the door that says guests feel like home. It only costs half a penny to stay one night.”

The director said to Lu Guan from the side: "This article has been checked by someone, it is true."

Lu Guan continued to ask: "You have a good relationship with Lin Shutong, and you also have a good relationship with Fu Yunying in her room?"

Li Tong was stunned, very helpless, and spread his hands: "Sir, where do you start? I have a wife in my family, but it's just a place where I like to spend some money to support Miss Fu. I don't think I spend a lot of money. As for Ms. Lin, when I met Ms. Fu several times, I was in her room, and Ms. Lin was also there. She wanted to ask me to listen to her performance many times, but I really couldn't bear her, so I never went to the performance. The rewards in the Pipa Garden are all recorded, and the grown-ups can find out if what Xiaomin said is true or not."

"Whether there is a reward or not has nothing to do with whether you have an affair." Lu Guan said.

"Then what does your lord want Xiaomin to do? I'm really out of luck this year..." Li Tong shouted again.

After asking Li Tong, he came out and asked the chief secretary to sign the testimony for Li Tong and press his fingerprints. While walking outside, Song Qianzhi asked Lu Guan if he wanted the Ministry of Criminal Justice to release Li Tong today.

The director was still there, and said with a smile on his face: "The Li family is also willing to pay the money, so we can bail him out first, so that people can watch him."

Lu Guan seemed to have something to say.

Song Qianzhi was the first to dismiss the master book.

"I said it casually, don't let it go if you don't let it go." Song Qianzhi said.

Lu Guan sneered: "You know?"

"Then let it go? The master hasn't gone far yet."

"Let go of what, this kind of arrogant and selfish man, Fu Yunying let him go and then let him go."

Back on the carriage, Lu Guan's expression was already ugly.

Song Qianzhi ate the candy, and said lightly: "Li Tong is not the murderer. Fu Yunying said that Li usually pesters her after the performance. The family has a little money. Some of the gardeners in the Pipa Garden let people in. I have also been there. , should not be lying. According to what Fu Yunying said, Li Tong has nothing to do with her and Lin Shutong, but Li Tong has been to her room a few times, and there are rumors. It just so happened that he happened to be the day before Lin Shutong was killed. It’s bad luck to leave the city.”

Lu Guan stared at Song Qianzhi.

"When?"

"It was two years ago. I was just curious. I forgot who I met. At that time, a singer who the emperor liked very much was later taken as a concubine by an adult from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and was rewarded by the emperor."

Lu Guan thoughtfully, lowered his head, rubbed his fingers, and asked again: "Do you think what Fu Yunying said is true and Li Tong is lying?"

"It's not all a lie. The inn he stayed in is not a lie. You can find out if you go to the shop to buy cloth. Let's stop going and send two people to run errands. As for Lin Shutong pestering him... ..." Song Qianzhi couldn't help laughing.

Lu Guan's face couldn't hold back either.

"I don't know how he has the nerve to say that." Song Qianzhi shook his head, "Look at these two people, although they are both in prison, their circumstances are very different. Fu Yunying was abused in prison, and Li Tong didn't know that he was sent away." Yinzi is still the same, there is no injury at all. Li Tong must have seen it himself. He was not the one who killed the murderer, and he could prove that he had no contact with Lin Shutong that day. It's just speculation, there is no evidence. If it is really found out, Fu Yunying is the one who will die, not him. There is no proof of Lin Shutong's death, so naturally he can say whatever he wants, if he slanders the two girls, just listen to it."

When Song Qianzhi spoke, Lu Guan kept watching him.

"Forget it. Now I really have no clue. None of the people arrested by the Ministry of Criminal Justice are murderers. They don't even have a target. It's tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack. It's difficult. The emperor didn't give a deadline. Let’s show off the power of the dragon. In order to save Master Lu’s life, we have to work harder. Let’s mention Wang Zaoguo again. Although most of the people who went to Zhang Jingju to pick up Lou Jiangyue’s luggage were not from his house, ask him if he knows If you know what Lou Jiangyue wrote in that envelope, you might have a clue."

The carriage drove outside the gate of Secretary Province, Lu Guan got out of the car first, and kindly helped Song Qianzhi.Song Qianzhi looked so weak that Lu Guan was really afraid that he would fall on the snow and break his bones.

Thinking of Song Qianzhi's wrestling and thinking of his waist, Lu Guan's face suddenly turned red.

Song Qianzhi looked at him strangely, at this moment, Zhou Xian came out from the inside, and walked in with the two of them, talking about what he had found in the palace.

In order to avoid making a few more trips, Zhou Xian simply checked out the usage of the entire Pipa Garden.

"There are 130 singing and dancing girls in Pipa Garden, 32 of them have used this kind of tea, and 30 of them have received this kind of tea in the past six months. Qin Mingxue has this kind of tea. I also went to Pipa Garden by the way. Qin Mingxue's tea is still there, and there is no poison in the tea. In addition, Lin Shutong's health-preserving tea is poisonous, and the remaining tea has been sealed up in the Ministry of Criminal Justice as evidence, and it is also poisonous. I also took it for inspection, and it will take two days to get the result."

Song Qianzhi frowned while listening: "Qin Mingxue doesn't have poisonous tea?"

"No." Zhou Xian affirmed.

Lu Guan washed his hands, dried his hands on the cloth towel hanging on the shelf, and interjected: "The poison in Lin Shutong's tea leaves is extremely rare, and it takes a certain amount to accumulate and the toxin spreads all over the body before it will take effect. Shutong got the tea directly from the palace, and other people also got it from the palace. If everyone’s tea is not poisonous and only she has it, we should find out who got Lin Shutong’s health tea. Where did you get it, where did you sign it, find this person, he is probably the one who poisoned you."

"Then do this, Zhou Xian, you go and check what Master Lu said, I will go to the palace in the afternoon, and then go to see Lou Jiangyue's room, if there is anything missing." Song Qianzhi glanced at Lu Guan.

Lu Guan said, "I'll stay in the secretary's province to read the case file."

"Let's eat first, I'm starving to death."

Zhou Xian heard the words and went out to call for someone, Song Qianzhi found that Lu Guan was watching him, walked over and fed a pine nut candy to him.

Lu Guan closed his mouth tightly and opened his eyes wide, in disbelief.

Song Qianzhi raised his eyebrows and glanced at Zhou Xian.

When Zhou Xian turned around and entered the door, Lu Guan had already bit the candy in his mouth, his lips were tightly closed, his face was indifferent, and his cheeks did not move.

The pine nut candy slowly melted on his tongue, and the sweet taste filled the whole mouth, even his nasal cavity seemed to taste the tempting sweet taste.

Song Qianzhi was washing his face, with his back to him, the jade pendant on his waist dangling.Lu Guan half-closed his eyes, got up and went out, avoiding Zhou Xian, then chewed the candy and swallowed it.

Wintersweet has fallen a lot, and the branches are covered with snow at this moment, and the sky is still gloomy, like that evening when he entered the palace, and it is only noon now.

The words Fu Mingshao said sounded again: "Marquis Anding raised a family outside the mansion, went to investigate this family, and forced Song Qianzhi to jump over the wall to sever ties with the Song family."

Lu Guan turned his head and saw Song Qianzhi talking to Zhou Xian, reaching out to touch Zhou Xian's well-trained chest muscles, with a smile on his face, the kind of gentleness and kindness that didn't belong to a 19-year-old youth.

Song Qianzhi noticed something, raised his eyebrows, and looked over.

I saw Lu Guan burying his head and walking hurriedly past the flower stand, knocking over a pot of flowers.

The author has something to say: Master Song: Come, eat candy.

Lu Guan: If I don’t eat it, if I refuse, then I won’t... um.

☆, Lou Jiangyue (Nine)

After eating in the Secretary's Department, the three of them split up to do their own things in the afternoon.

First, an hour later, Song Qianzhi came back, brought back a fish, handed it to the kitchen, and then went to Lu Guan.

Snowy days are always gloomy, Lu Guan is sitting in the lobby, wearing a dark red official robe, his complexion is already dark, and this is even darker.

"I'm back." Without raising his head, Lu Guan closed the case file. He had read it countless times, and he could tell nothing by just looking at it.

"Well, I can't find anything. I'll look at Zhou Xian's." Song Qianzhi washed his hands, "I just saw a big carp at the market, bought it back, and asked the kitchen to make it at noon tomorrow."

Lu Guan suddenly lost his temper, and saw Song Qianzhi shrank his neck from the cold, his hands were flushed from soaking in cold water.It was the hand of a literati, with slender fingers and distinct joints.

"Come here, make tea." Lu Guan said loudly.

Song Qianzhi huddled in the chair with the tea in his hands, stayed for a while, took a sip of hot tea, and suddenly felt refreshed and revived.After recovering, Song Qianzhi called Shang Lu Guan and brought Wang Zauguo forward.

This time Song Qianzhi ordered him not to be chained and handcuffed, and the iron ball was also not wanted.

"Master Wang is just a civil servant. He doesn't even have the strength to kill chickens. What kind of lock do you want to lock?" Song Qianzhi led Wang Zauguo across the road leading to the interrogation room again.

Wang Zauguo straightened his back and kept his eyes fixed, as if he had confidence.

This feeling is very strange, Song Qianzhi couldn't help but look at him a few more times, he had a premonition that Wang Zaohui would say something amazing today.

"A love letter?!" Lu Guan couldn't help feeling a little moved, "What love letter? It was written by Lou Jiangyue herself? Have you seen it before? Do you remember what was written in it?"

Wang Zauguo glanced at Song Qianzhi.

Song Qianzhi looked very relaxed, leaning back in the chair, more like in a daze.

"He mentioned it to me, but I haven't seen him write it in his own hand. On the evening of the first day we lived in Yingchun Garden, the emperor summoned us. I came out first, because Lou Jiangyue is a folk poet. Legendary person, since the emperor ascended the throne, he has no chance to leave the capital, so he left Lou Jiangyue to tell him some anecdotes about his travels abroad."

Song Qianzhi: "It is
