This sentence was like a fire, "poof" a certain part of Qin Yingbao's body was ignited, he lifted the quilt to cover himself and Xie Xiaoyu, his lips just wanted to press down, but his body stiffened suddenly.
The fire in his body went out, replaced by a chill to the bone.
There was a cherry-red spot under Xie Xiaoyu's collarbone, the size of a copper coin, and further down, there were two such spots on the ribs on both sides, different sizes, but the color was cherry red.
Blood Fall.
Qin Yingbao suddenly popped out of these two words in his heart, but then he denied his thoughts, how could it be, the blood pendant appeared on the dead person, his little jade, the charming little jade, how could this thing appear on his body.
While hesitating, Xie Xiaoyu's body shrank down, and a pair of bright eyes flashed with a searching light in the darkness, "Captain, what's wrong with you?"
” "I'm just thinking, lady, how did you give birth to such beauty."
He smiled at her, the sincerity in his eyes not the slightest hint of falsehood.
"Knock knock."
There was a quick knock on the door outside, "Captain, come out and have a look, someone from Xin'an Mansion is here, saying that they want to thoroughly investigate the Captain's Mansion." ” Jiang Xixi looked at the man in front of him, he had never looked at himself since he went out, and he had been carelessly playing with the folds of the jujube pattern on his body.
Jiang Xixi then stepped forward, "Captain Qin, we got the news that someone died in your mansion the night before yesterday, so we came to investigate." ” Qin Yingbao glanced at her, "Who did you listen to?"
I don't even know the dead people in the school captain's mansion, where did you get the news?
” Not to be outdone, Jiang Xi stared at him, "Is there really not?"
” Qin Yingbao narrowed his eyes, "I have heard that the newly appointed Master Cheng of Xin'an City is wise and capable, and he has solved countless strange cases, why, is it actually based on intuition?"
” Jiang Xixi didn't fight with him, she glanced behind her, Pei Ran immediately stepped forward from behind, he glared at Qin Yingbao, a pair of eyes almost burst out of flames, "Lord Jiang, Xie Xiaoyu was originally my wife who didn't pass the door, she was robbed into the mansion by this disciple half a month ago, and a few days ago, she was even ordered to fall in this captain's mansion, please make the decision for the small, severely punish the villain, and give Xiaoyu and me justice." ” Jiang Xixi nodded at Pei Ran, and then turned to Qin Yingbao, "Lord Qin, do you have anything to say?"
” Qin Yingbao sneered coldly, "Miss Xie and I are in love, no one in the Qin Mansion knows, how did it get into your mouth, Xiaoyu has become your lover separated by yin and yang, it is really a big joke in the world." ” Jiang Xixi took out a piece of yellow paper from the placket, shook it open, and mentioned it in front of Qin Yingbao, "This is Pei Ran's dowry list, taken from the matchmaker, it is clearly written, he and Xie Xiaoyu already have the words of the matchmaker, no matter whether she is dead or alive, Lord Qin has no reason to leave people in the mansion, if you insist on not letting people go, then don't blame us for being rude, you are the school captain's mansion, I will definitely go in today."
With that, she slowly walked up the stone steps towards the two vermilion gates in front of her.
Before she came to the door, five or six long sticks suddenly stood on her shoulders, and the little servants of the Qin Mansion stopped her outside the door, staring at Jiang Xi with a fierce look, wanting to overwhelm people in momentum.
Seeing this, Shi Jin and several officials also rushed to the steps, and the two groups of people formed an opposing formation, and a vicious fight was inevitable.
Jiang Xixi didn't look at the few little guys who stopped her, she stared at Qin Yingbao to see how he reacted to the current situation, but what kind of person was Captain Qin, not to mention Xin'an City, even in Bianliang, and few people could get into his eyes, he still played with his fingers indifferently, obviously not taking Jiang Xixi and a few of them in his eyes.
With a "bang", the scabbard in Jiang Xixi's hand was shaken far away, rolled down the steps, and turned over on the ground a few times before stopping, at the same time, only half of the wooden sticks in the hands of those little guys were left, and the other half was cut off by Jiang Xixi's long sword.
The little guys were frightened by this sudden move, and after a while, you look at me and I look at you, slowly dispersed from Jiang Xixi's side, and retreated behind Qin Yingbao with half a wooden stick.
Qin Yingbao raised his eyes, his eyes were finally a little more serious, and he looked directly at Jiang Xixi, "In this way, the girl is going to break into the school captain's mansion." ” "You guessed it."
"Then don't blame me for being rude."
After speaking, he waved his hand towards the door, and several housekeepers who had been lying in ambush on both sides of the door flashed out of the door, each holding a bright big knife in his hand.
Once the situation is evenly matched, the atmosphere suddenly becomes tense, and the strings in everyone's hearts are getting tighter and tighter, and they may break at any time.
"Pity, put down the sword."
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind.
Jiang Xixi hurriedly turned around and found that Cheng Muyou and Yan Niang were walking towards them, followed by Shi Fei and an old man he didn't know.
"My lord, there was a murder in the Qin Mansion, and the way of death is the same as that of the Chang Zhu Si couple."
Jiang Xixi's tone was happy and anxious.
Cheng Muyou nodded at her, "I heard about it, so I rushed over as soon as I got home." ” "However, this Captain Qin won't let us enter the mansion."
"This is Lord Cheng, the newly appointed county magistrate of Xin'an City," Qin Yingbao slowly paced to Cheng Muyou's side, looking at him with an arrogant look in his eyes, "Lord Cheng, it's not that I deliberately didn't let your people in, it's because they have no basis for what they say, there is no real evidence, although my school captain's mansion is not very noble, but I can't just search it on my own terms, don't you say?"
” Cheng Muyou smiled calmly, "The captain wants to have real evidence, I have it here."
As he spoke, he took out a handkerchief, opened it, took out a charred black thing, and handed it to Qin Yingbao, "This thing Lord Qin shouldn't know it, right?"
” Qin Yingbao took the thing and looked at it carefully, and raised his head suddenly, "This is my token from the Qin Mansion, where did Lord Cheng get it?"
” "On the way back to Xin'an from Yingchang today, I happened to encounter a charred carriage, there were two charred corpses on the carriage, which had been burned to the point that they were indistinguishable, but this thing was preserved, just in the wreckage of the carriage, Lord Qin, may I ask if there are any people who have gone out of the school governor's mansion recently?"
Hearing this, a little guy next to him turned green with fright, and whispered, "Captain, no, it won't be Madame, she has been gone since last night, with Qin'er" Captain Qin glared at him, then looked at Cheng Muyou again, the arrogance on his face turned into nothing, and he stretched out his hand towards the door, "Lord Cheng, please come in." ” Seeing that he said this, those family members hurriedly put down their long knives, stood respectfully on both sides, and welcomed the group into the captain's mansion.
Jiang Xixi walked into the door, only to find that Yan Niang and the old man were no longer in the crowd at some point, she turned her head and looked for a long time, but she still did not find them, so she had to speed up her pace and follow Cheng Muyou in.
