Detective in the Red Chamber

Because Lin Daiyu was flustered just now, she turned her head slightly, and did not hit the back of Mingyan's neck, but stuck to her neck, making a big opening on the left side, and at the same time cut Mingyan's carotid artery !

So Lin Daiyu watched helplessly, Mingyan rolled from howling to twitching limbs, and finally gradually fell silent.

he……

died?

Mingyan was killed by himself? !

Lin Daiyu only felt that her mind was blank. After all, no matter how precocious she was, she was only a 13-year-old girl.

At this moment, a trembling hand grasped the flower hoe, and snatched the flower hoe involuntarily.

"This... this dog is..."

I saw Jia Baoyu holding the flower hoe, trying to squeeze out a smile that was uglier than crying, and said in a war, "I... actually wanted to kill the master, and was... beaten to death by my hoe, and... also You deserve it... you deserve it tight!"

How smart is Lin Daiyu?

Naturally, he immediately guessed that he didn't want to bear the reputation of killing himself—even if he killed someone to save someone, doing so as a young woman might still attract criticism.

"Brother Bao..."

Lin Daiyu was tearful, and was about to say something, but Baoyu said sternly, "You quickly called the attacker to report to the front, saying that the Diao slave who committed the murder was just trying to kill the master, and I have already killed him!"

Seeing that what he said was unquestionable, Lin Daiyu bit her cherry lips slightly, and she had no choice but to turn around and run away.

This journey was in a panic, and when he got there, he felt his heart beating violently. He tried his best to cross the half-foot-high threshold, but suddenly it was dark in front of his eyes, and he couldn't help but slumped on the steps.

"Miss Lin?!"

A delicate-looking servant girl was carrying a bucket to water the flowers in the yard, when she suddenly saw this scene, she threw away the bucket in fright, ran to support Daiyu, and said nervously, "Miss Lin? What did you do?!"

Lin Daiyu barely regained consciousness after being called by her, and grabbed the maid's wrist with her backhand, and asked in a trembling voice, "Xi... Xiren..."

"Sister Xiren is out."

That maid was quite clever, and seeing Daiyu like this, she hurriedly said, "Sister Qingwen is also not at home, so please tell me if you have anything to do—my servant's name is Hong'er, and I am the steward Lin who is in charge of the accounting room." father."

Since Xiren and Qingwen were not there, Lin Daiyu had no choice but to explain to the little girl what Jia Baoyu said just now.

Although Hong'er was so bluffed when she heard this, she didn't act out of order, and carefully persuaded, "Miss Lin, since Mingyan is dead, it's not too late, I'll help you go first." Take a rest in the room, otherwise, if you have something good or bad, the servant will have no way to explain it to Master Bao."

As he spoke, he helped Lin Daiyu into the main room, and at the same time he raised his voice and said, "Come on, come on!"

"Who's yelling?"

After yelling twice, Qiu Wen, the second-class maid, appeared in the room. Seeing Lin Daiyu's listless look, she couldn't help being taken aback.

While she was busy, she also stepped forward to support her, and at the same time scolded indiscriminately, "Hong'er, what did you do?! Miss Lin hasn't been sick for a few days, and she just bumped into you and became like this !"

This Hong'er was originally named Lin Hongyu, but because Jia Baoyu violated Jia Baoyu's taboo, he was renamed Hong'er.

Since she has roots and looks no worse than Qingwen and Xiren, she is naturally unwilling to be a rough servant girl all the time, so she seems to be a bit 'outstanding' on weekdays, and always wants to make a name in front of Baoyu No., and offended a few big maids because of this.

At this moment, hearing that Qiuwen used herself as a raft again, although Hong'er was very annoyed, she also knew that this was not the time to argue with her, so she resisted and helped Lin Daiyu to the window, and ran out without saying a word .

"What are you running for? You...you...you flirtatious little hoof!"

Qiu Wen didn't understand, so she chased after her and cursed a few times, seeing Hong'er had disappeared in a flash, she had no choice but to go back to serve Lin Daiyu resentfully.

But he said that when Hong'er came out, he ran wildly, and when he reached the front yard, he was already dripping with sweat, so he wanted to take out the handkerchief and simply wipe it, so as not to lose his impression in front of the master.

Unexpectedly, this groping was in vain, I searched my whole body but couldn't find the handkerchief, so I had to use the sleeve lining to wipe it randomly a few times, then I inquired along the road and found near the east living room.

At this time, the drama of "identifying the real and the evil" was still going on, and there were four to fifty people crowded inside and outside the living room, all of whom were young men with full of vigor.

Seeing a pretty woman approaching with a flushed face and panting, those young people inevitably became agitated, their eyes swivel in front of and behind Hong'er.

If you want to change to an ordinary little maid, being stared at like this, I am afraid that you will have trouble even walking.

But this Hong'er was very calm, she walked into the living room without looking sideways, first greeted Jia Lian respectfully, and was about to ask where the officials of Shuntian Mansion were, when she saw Sun Shaozong next to Jia Lian.

Back then, she had seen Sun Shaozong several times from a distance, so she was no stranger to his burly and majestic figure.

So Hong'er hurriedly bowed down and reported, "Master Sun, our lord sent a servant to spread the word that Mingyan, who murdered and robbed him, just tried to kill the lord, and he was beaten to death by our second lord Bao!"

"what?!"

Jia Lian jumped up in shock and said in amazement, "He...he killed Mingyan again?!"

Jia Baoyu used Jiao Da's hand to kill Lai Da before, which was already unbelievable, but now he actually killed his close servant with his own hands!

This……

Is this still the baby lump of Rongguo Mansion?He is clearly a murderer!

Although Sun Shaozong was also a little surprised that Jia Baoyu actually killed Mingyan, but he had nearly a hundred dead souls under his command, so naturally he would not make such a fuss like Jia Lian.

So he stood up and asked, "Ma'am, where is Brother Bao now?"

"Your Excellency, call your servant Hong'er."

Hong'er first took the opportunity to sell a 'name', and then replied obediently, "Our master is currently in the southeast corner of the provincial hospital, in the peach blossom forest next to the Qinfang gate bridge!"

Jia Lian also regained his strength at this time, and hurriedly ordered, "Then why don't you hurry up and lead the way!"

Hong'er agreed, then leaned sideways, and led the two of them, along with Qiu Yunfei and others, out of the east living room.

And the boys outside the door, after watching the group of people go away, they exploded with coaxing, talking about Jia Baoyu's killing of Mingyan, and the words added to Jia Baoyu's words. A little in awe.

Not to mention how they talked about it.

However, Hong'er led the crowd to the vicinity of the other courtyard, and saw a young man hanging half of his shoulders, wandering outside the gate of the other courtyard, seeing her coming, she happily waved a piece of handkerchief in the wind.

Seeing this, Hong'er's complexion changed several times, and she struggled for a while with mixed emotions, then she turned a blind eye and led everyone into the other courtyard.

The young man watched her go away in a daze, and the expectations on his face turned into all kinds of helplessness, wandering lonely outside the gate, but he was reluctant to leave.

Chapter 270 Seeds of Infatuation

The wind blows and the flowers fall, Jia Baoyu is holding a flower hoe, and standing under the half-withered peach tree, there is a bloody corpse beside him-looking from a distance, it really has a sense of freehand lens.

but……

What is the little earth bag that was just piled up next to the corpse used for?

Sun Shaozong asked suspiciously, "Why, you don't want to bury him here, do you?"

Jia Baoyu was a bit puzzled by the question, and after a while he suddenly realized, shaking his head like a rattle, and said coyly, "This is a flower tomb made by sister Lin for burying flowers."

Flower mound?

Sun Shaozong became more and more speechless, these two little Wenqings are really idle...

But having said that, I might as well learn to do one myself when I go back—it won't hurt to show off my romance in front of women.

Just as he was making up his mind to paint gourds at home, Jia Baoyu sighed again, and said helplessly, "Since something like this happened today, I'm afraid this flower tomb will not be used in the future."

What's so pretentious about this?

There are plenty of places in the Bingsong Bieyuan, so why not just find another one two miles away?

Sun Shaozong was really not in the mood to chat with him about these romantic things, so he touched the corpse in the pool of blood with his chin, and ordered, "Let Xu Shengli go over and see if it was him last night."

Unexpectedly, when Xu Shengli saw the blood on the ground, he was so frightened that he lost his energy, and moved forward for a long time in fear, and he was still far away from the corpse.

"What are you dawdling about? Hurry up!"

Qiu Yunfei watched impatiently from the side, so he simply kicked his ass.

Xu Shengli was caught off guard, and staggered and fell down in the pool of blood, facing Mingyan who was dying.

"Ah~!!!"

Screaming like a woman, Xu Shengli shrank back while rolling and crawling, and shouted, "It's him, it's him, it's him! The one who went to Huiyun Tower to meet that profiteer at Haishi yesterday is this fellow!"

Now that it is confirmed that Mingyan is the murderer, the rest of the matter is naturally much simpler.

Ask Qiu Yunfei and the two head catchers to go to the front yard to gather materials and get a simple stretcher so that the corpse can be carried back—even though the murderer and the victim are both dead, the necessary procedures still have to go through the yamen of.

When Qiu Yunfei and others took orders to go, Sun Shaozong simply recorded a statement for Jia Baoyu.

Although Jia Baoyu had prepared the manuscript long ago, to the ears of an expert like Sun Shaozong, it was full of loopholes. Looking at the style of the flower hoe and the pinch marks on Jia Baoyu's neck, he could already guess who the murderer was. Who is it.

It's just that such trivial details, only a fool would pursue it - especially that Lin Daiyu is still Ruan Rong's god-sister.

So he also pretended to be deaf and dumb, recorded Jia Baoyu's fabricated rhetoric, and helped him make up for several obvious loopholes by the way.

Seeing that the matter came to an end, Hong'er lost no time in getting close to her, and whispered to Jia Baoyu about Lin Daiyu's situation.

As soon as Lin Daiyu's nickname was unwell, Jia Baoyu panicked at that time, and without caring about anything else, he hurriedly apologized to Sun Shaozong and Jia Lian, and then hurried back.

Naturally, Hong'er followed closely behind.

Seeing their master and servant running away without knowing why, Jia Lian smiled a little embarrassedly, "Don't blame Erlang, this kid has always been ignorant of etiquette..."

"Second Master!"

At this moment, someone suddenly called out on the Qinfang gate bridge, followed the sound, and saw a little maid with her mouth in her palm, and shouted loudly, "Grandma said that there is a wrong account, so you should go back quickly." Check it out."

Jia Lian was speechless for a while, and after a while he smiled wryly and cupped his hands, "Erlang, I'm afraid it's..."

Sun Shaozong flicked his sleeves casually, and said with a smile, "Second brother, don't worry, I won't say goodbye to you when this corpse is carried on the platform, and I will go directly to the Yamen to deal with business."

Only then did Jia Lian leave Zhou Rui alone, and went as if he had been pardoned.

As soon as the two brothers left, the scene suddenly calmed down.

Sun Shaozong was too lazy to talk to Zhou Rui, so he casually scanned around, and suddenly found a water-blue bookbag hanging on a peach tree not far away.

Curiously, he stepped forward to make fun of it, and saw that it was full of scriptures and historical annotations, except for Song Ci's "Winning Injustice Collection" mixed in it, which seemed out of place.

After pondering for a while, Sun Shaozong guessed that this should be left by Baoyu. It seems that while he was studying and striving to improve, he did not let go of his interest in "judging cases by criminal name".

"Here, your homework for Second Master Jiabao."

Sun Shaozong casually threw the book bag to Zhou Rui, "Remember to send it to him later."

Zhou Rui hurriedly agreed, and just as he took the bookbag in his hand, he suddenly heard someone ask in a rough voice, "The murderer...is the murderer really Mingyan?!"

Sun Shaozong and Zhou Rui looked back, their gazes first turned around on the face of the visitor, and then they slid to the position below the collarbone in unison - this person was a chess player, she probably ran all the way, and now Panting ups and downs.

"Yes."

Sun Shaozong nodded, and briefly introduced, "This guy stole the inkstone from the mansion to sell, but was bumped into by Pan You'an. Because he was worried that the matter would be exposed, he simply chose to kill him."

"Just now when he saw the official came to him, he tried to take Baoyu as a hostage, but was killed by Baoyu instead."

Hearing this, Siqi stared at the corpse in a daze for a while, then suddenly knelt down in front of Sun Shaozong, choked up and said, "My lord's kindness, slaves will never forget it, and the true vows made by slaves in front of my uncle will never be forgotten." Little change!"

listen to this...

She seemed to have seen that Big Brother Cheap had something in his heart, so he agreed to let her do it.

It seems that big breasts may not be brainless!

However, not long after the chess player left, Qiu Yunfei and others finally carried the stretcher, and the two catchers hugged their heads and pinched their feet and threw Mingyan on it, and the group of people left the Provincial Family Hospital in a mighty way.

When he got outside the gate, he saw the young man with his arms dangling still lingering near the gate, so Sun Shaozong stopped in his tracks and said, "Jia Yun, what are you wandering around here?"

Then Jia Yun hurriedly came over, saluted respectfully, and said with a smile, "Returning to my lord, I have nothing to do left and right, just strolling casually, casually strolling."

"walk around?"

Sun Shaozong's eyes turned on his left hand, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, and said, "Did that Hong'er accidentally drop the handkerchief you were playing with just now, or did you have something to do with her before?"

Seeing that she couldn't hide it, Jia Yun had no choice but to spread her palms, and said awkwardly, "I just picked it up, it must be that Miss Hong'er accidentally landed near here."

Looking at his mixed expression, Sun Shaozong could guess that he and that Hong'er probably had some flirtatious stories, but now that he has broken an arm, causing his 'worth' to plummet, so that Hong'er also Cut off contact with him.

However, this 'following the red top and white' is also a common practice in the mansion, especially seeing Jia Yun like this, the two of them probably haven't had any real contact, at least not as good as the chess player and Pan You'an.

Thinking about Jia Yun's broken arm, it was barely related to him, and the impression I saw him a few times was pretty good.

Sun Shaozong patted him on the left shoulder, and said with a smile, "When I see Brother Bao again that day, let him find you a fat job—this cheap old man can't be in vain, right?"

"Wait a few years for you to buy your next lucrative family business, what kind of woman you can't marry!"

Jia Yun was naturally overjoyed when she heard this, and thanked her a thousand times, but she still clenched the veil tightly in her hand, refusing to let go of it - it was clear that she had no more affection for that Hong'er.

This guy can be regarded as a seed of infatuation.

It's just that Hong'er...

But it doesn't seem like the word 'love' can get the master over.
