Chapter 50 At night, the moonlight is bright and the breeze is gentle.
Deng Si'er, who had just had dinner, was sitting comfortably at the table, drinking hot tea and listening to the conversation between Chu Jing and Zuo Chi, occasionally glancing at them.
Suddenly, Deng Si'er didn't know what he heard, and he almost spit out a mouthful of water.
"Why did you say that you will visit Song Mansion at night in two days?"
Deng Si'er suddenly stood up and exclaimed.
Zuo Chi had long been accustomed to Deng Si'er's frequent bluffing behavior.
At the moment, he just waved his hand to Deng Si'er and motioned for Deng Si'er to sit down.
Deng Si'er hurriedly sat down on the stool, then approached Zuo Chi and said: "Why is this a night visit to the Song Dynasty?"
Zuo Chi glanced at Deng Si'er with a smile and said: "Aren't you always curious about what I did yesterday?
Do you still remember what Qiu Qi said when he came to see us?"
Deng Si'er was stunned for a moment, and then recalled that Qiu Qi had indeed come to see them when they just came back from Song Yuqiu's place.
"Could it be that what Qiu Qi said was about Gao Qianli?"
Deng Si'er wondered.
Zuo Chi nodded and said: "Yes, Qiu Qi once said that after Gao Qianli drowned unfortunately, he went to Gao Qianli's room to clean up his old belongings, only to find that an unidentified person happened to be in Gao Qianli's room, and seemed to be looking for something."
Zuo Chi paused and continued: "So, I personally went to Gao Qianli's room yesterday, and after searching carefully, I found this."
As Zuo Chi said, he took out a piece of rope.
It seemed to be a rope that ordinary people would use to decorate personal items such as jade pendants around their waists.
However, it seemed to have been torn off by someone.
There was no jade pendant or other items. .
Deng Si'er took the piece of rope from Zuo Chi's hand, observed it and said: "Is this from Gao Qianli?
You gentlemen and scholars are very classy and like to bring some jade pendants and other gadgets, so you don't mind it troublesome."
"This is not something from Gao Qianli."
Zuo Chi took back the piece of rope from Deng Si'er and said again: "Originally, I thought this thing belonged to Gao Qianli, so I took this piece of rope and asked Qiu Qi, who is good friends with Gao Qianli."
"You asked Qiu Qi, what did Qiu Qi say?"
Deng Si'er asked curiously when he heard Zuo Chi went to find Qiu Qi.
"Qiu Qi told me something about Gao Qianli, but he could definitely tell me that Gao Qianli has no preference for wearing jade pendants or other pendants."
"Whose thing does this belong to?"
Deng Si'er asked again, looking at the piece of rope in Zuo Chi's hand.
"Zuo Chi has already talked about this, and you still can't figure out where your usual cleverness has gone."
Chu Jing interrupted at this time.
After hearing this, Deng Si'er glared at Chu Jing dissatisfied and muttered: "Who told you not to take me with you when you go out?
If I go out with you, do you need to tell me?
I can find out myself."
"Look, you can't even understand what Zuo Chi said.
Why are you checking?"
Chu Jing looked at Deng Si'er's behavior and said with a smile.
When Deng Si'er looked at the situation, he was so depressed that his face turned red, and he said angrily: "Who said I can't understand?"
"Then tell me."
Chu Jing said again.
"Just say it."
Deng Si'er became more energetic and rolled his eyes twice.
After thinking for a while, he said to Chu Jing and Zuo Chi: "Master Zuo just wanted to say that since that piece of rope does not belong to Gao Qianli himself, it must belong to someone else."
"That's right, keep talking."
When Chu Jing heard this, she glanced at Zuo Chi next to her.
Seeing that Zuo Chi was looking forward to it, she couldn't help but encourage Deng Si'er in a funny way.

"I guess what Master Zuo just said was that he wanted to say that the piece of rope belonged to the person who secretly sneaked into Gao Qianli's room to rummage through things.
Unfortunately, Qiu Qi, who wanted to clean up the house, saw it.
When I injured Qiu Qi, I accidentally dropped this piece of rope. " After Deng Si'er finished speaking, he looked at Chu Jing triumphantly, then tilted his head and glanced at Zuo Chi, saying in his heart, this is all, it's not a problem for the young master, he is very smart.
After that, I rarely heard two words from Zuo Chi: "good."
Deng Si'er looked at Chu Jing, waiting for him to speak.
Chu Jing said with a smile: "Not bad, there is progress."
"Humph" Deng Si'er snorted softly when he heard the words, but thought of something again and asked Xiang Zuo Chi and Chu Jing: "Now that we have reached this point, what Mr.
Zuo just said is that the person who sneaked into Gao Qianli's room is related to Song Yuqiu."
"You should ask Uncle Jing about this."
Zuo Chi turned to look at Chu Jing and said.
Deng Si'er followed Zuo Chi's gaze and looked at Chu Jing.
He didn't understand why he wanted to ask Chu Jing this question.
Seeing Zuo Chi and Chu Jing getting along with each other more and more, Deng Si'er muttered dissatisfiedly in his heart: One day, he will let you see his Deng Si'er's abilities.
Not only can you investigate cases, but he, Deng Si'er, can too.
The key is, he will never lose to others.
When Chu Jing was about to say something, he reached out and took the piece of rope from Zuo Chi's hand, then stretched it out in front of Deng Si'er and said with a smile:
"Deng Si'er, take a whiff.
Does this smell look familiar?"
Deng Si'er glanced at Chu Jing doubtfully, leaned over and sniffed twice, while distinguishing the smell, he said: "Don't tell me, I seem to have smelled such a smell somewhere."
"Is it like wine?"
Chu Jing asked.
"It seems a bit like it."
"Did you just drink it a few days ago?"
Chu Jing asked again.
Hearing this, Deng Si'er sniffed hard twice more, thought carefully for a long time, and suddenly said in surprise: "That's right, that's it.
The wine I drank at Song Yuqiu's house a few days ago was Osmanthus Niang.
Yes, it was Osmanthus Niang."
Immediately, Deng Si'er frowned and looked at Chu Jing and said: "Does this make you suspect that the person who sneaked into Gao Qianli's room is related to Song Yuqiu?"
This time it was Zuo Chi's turn to say: "It can only be said that Song Yuqiu is highly suspicious.
Since Gao Qianli is the leader of the entire potion transaction, it is impossible for Song Yuqiu, who is also closely related to the potion transaction, not to know Gao Qianli's true identity."
"Zuo Chi is right.
Maybe there is something in Gao Qianli's hand that Song Yuqiu wants but can't get.
But once Gao Qianli dies and has no goal, he can only go to Gao Qianli's room to try his luck."
Chu Jing continued.
"What does that have to do with sweet-scented osmanthus stuffing?"
Deng Si'er asked puzzledly.
"This kind of sweet-scented osmanthus brew is not easy to make, and it needs to be stored even more carefully.
It must be stored in a cool but not humid place.
In the past few days, I have sent people to sneak in to investigate the layout of the Song Mansion.
There is indeed such a warehouse, but , something makes me very strange.”
"What?"
Deng Si'er looked at Chu Jing with confusion and asked.
"According to my people's description, Song Yuqiu has good wine.
In order to facilitate storage, Song Yuqiu specially ordered people to build a warehouse.
The warehouse is very large, but there are only three jars of sweet-scented osmanthus wine."

Chu Jing narrowed his eyes slightly when he said this.
"A warehouse as big as three jars only has three jars of wine."
Zuo Chi couldn't help but tap his knuckles on the table after hearing this, and it took him a long time to say in an incomprehensible tone: "It seems that since this warehouse is not used to store wine, it has another purpose."
If sweet-scented osmanthus brew is just a gimmick to deceive others, then what is the real purpose of this warehouse?
The three of them couldn't help but look forward to their night visit to Song Mansion two days later
