Qi Zi'an's brows were tightly frowned, it didn't look like he was lying.

Qi Wenliang asked: "But what did you find? I don't think the furnishings in this room have been touched, did I miss it?"

Qi Zian shook his head, "Brother Huang didn't miss anything, and nothing was touched in the room. But that's why it's so strange."

"Since he rushes out to kill people without hesitation, and is not afraid of being seen at all, how can he pay so much attention without leaving any clues?"

Said like this, it reminded Qi Wenliang, he changed his words and told Qi Zian: "Don't ask who the jade pendant is for a while, just wait and see, maybe someone will come to get it."

Qi Zian: "Why?"

Qi Wenliang explained: "There are indeed no clues in the room, but the room itself is a clue."

"As you said, the killer is not afraid of being seen, and there is no questioning when he enters the door. Why should he go into the house early to hide?"

"Besides, if his enemy is that scholar, he should choose a time when no one is around to kill the scholar."

"Maybe he has a bad personality and caused panic on purpose." Qi Zian thought for a while and said.

Qi Wenliang shook his head, "Then there's no need for him to go into the house and hide. It's not like he won't hurt any extra people."

Now Qi Zian understood what Qi Wenliang meant: "Brother Huang said that before he came, he wasn't sure who he was going to attack. Like those high-ranking officials, he came here to pick people."

"Exactly." Qi Wenliang replied, "Since the murderer picked this one out of so many people, then this person must have something special. The only person who understands this special thing is the one who gave the jade pendant .”

"It suddenly occurred to me just now that this jade pendant is too ordinary, without complicated patterns or textures, it doesn't look like an ordinary keepsake. The owner of the jade may not come out to recognize it."

After finishing speaking, there was a sound of horseshoes outside the door, it should be that people from the yamen were about to arrive.

Qi Wenliang had already told Qi Zian what should be said, and when he heard the sound of horses' hooves, he planned to leave through the back door.

Xiao'e was scared out of her wits, and she wept with joy when the prince said that she was going to leave.

Unexpectedly, Qi Zian stretched out his hand to stop him again.

"I like this court lady, why don't you give it to me, Brother Huang."

Qi Wenliang turned his head and saw Xiao'e blinking at him non-stop. He couldn't help thinking of killing the donkey, but he still refused: "She is not handy, and she will probably make a mistake when she goes to your place. I won't give you any trouble." Trouble."

After all, there are not many people as stupid as Xiao'e.

To cherish animals, we still have to protect them.

Qi Zian expressed different opinions: "People with physical defects should not blindly pity her, and should put her in a place that really suits her. I got a batch of flower seedlings a while ago, and it was just when I needed to water them. Looks good on her!"

Now Qi Wenliang did not shirk.

Seeing Xiao'e who was about to rush over to hug his thigh, he took a half step back wittily, "Usually it's something that Zian gave me from him, but when he asks me for something, I always have to agree."

He smiled and said to Xiao'e: "Since he needs you, you can go back with him."

Xiao'e: "..." Are you serious about taking a half step back?

Qi Zi'an pulled up Xiao'e who had fallen to the ground, and was in a good mood.

"Why did you fall? It seems that your legs and feet are not very good!"

Xiao'e: "..."

She was left here like this, and the prince went back in the carriage that Mo Bai found.

Although she likes the crown prince more, at this time, she can only comfort herself: King Xian is handsome and rich, and His Majesty likes her... Isn't Princess Xian fragrant?

Thinking of what King Xian said just now that she was pleasing to the eye, Xiao'e felt that she had a good chance of winning.

Just as he was complacent, Zhong Han, Xian Wang's companion, came.

He was full of annoyance, as if he had lost something important, but in front of King Xian, he didn't say anything, just quietly waiting for orders.

King Xian looked at the house again, with a solemn expression.

"After the people in this yard leave, you go and ask her to come here, and then go to my house at night."

It sounds mysterious.

Xiao'e saw that King Xian ignored her and said "Let her go to my house at night", she couldn't help pricking her ears.

Now her goal has been changed to King Xian.

Of course she has to guard against the vixen who "goes to the palace in the middle of the night".

The prince, who had been completely forgotten by her, had returned to the East Palace at this time.

The prince still remembered her.

Qi Wenliang told Lutao: "Go and tell Hongliu that Xiao'e is going away and won't be coming back."

Lu Tao pretended to complain in a low voice: "She leaves as soon as she wants, and she doesn't miss the old relationship at all. Hey, she is doing well, she has climbed the high branches, but there are fewer people in this yard, and I have to reassign people. It's really troublesome !"

But the joy on his face could no longer be hidden.

When Qi Wenliang had nothing to explain here, she jumped up and down towards the accountant's direction.

"Did you pick up gold today? So happy." Hongliu asked.

"I'm happier than picking up gold! That eye-catching Xiao'e is finally gone!" Lu Tao said, "Your Highness asked me to let you know."

Hongliu nodded, "It's okay if there are no people around His Highness, I will arrange people to go in again."

"Coincidentally, I'm planning to change a group of people around the prince. The maids in this house will always be very unruly when they stay with him for a while, and they have to be replaced from time to time."

Hongliu has always been vigorous and resolute in handling affairs.

What was decided in the morning has been completed in the afternoon.

She gathered all the maids serving the prince together, no matter old or new, they all gave the same lecture.

"If you stay, it means that you have done a good job and deserve to be rewarded. Later, the warehouse will give you two taels of silver. You need to make persistent efforts in the future."

"The newcomers all do things with 12 points of energy. No matter how tight your skin is, you can't withstand the board that hits you when you make a mistake."

"No matter who you are, don't think about those things you shouldn't have. Your Highness treats people generously. It's His Highness who is kind. Don't push your nose. It doesn't matter if you want to be lively. Your Highness likes people in this palace, but the rules you should have can't. Luoxia, you can't afford to lose the face of Donggong!"

"Don't think that His Highness has a good temper, so he won't deal with you. If things go too far, someone will take care of them. Xiao'e, who kept spilling tea a few days ago, has been sent to Xian Wang's mansion today, you can decide for yourself Bar."

Since they were asked to weigh it by themselves, Hongliu would not explain it directly.

After explaining some more bits and pieces, she left.

After she walked away, the maids who managed to stay looked at each other and made a "tsk tsk tsk" sound.

The new maid didn't know how to do it, and asked suspiciously: "What's the matter with that Xiao'e? Is there anything wrong with being sent to the Prince's Palace?"

"His Royal Highness Xian Wang is deeply loved by the emperor, and was sent to Xian Wang's mansion, isn't it a happy event?"

Several older court ladies pushed each other, and finally one person was willing to come out and explain to them.

"The court lady named Xiao'e deliberately overturned the tea, trying to attract His Highness's attention, and was sent away."

"As for Xian Wang's Mansion...that is of course very good, but those who are sent to Xian Wang's Mansion from here may not have a very good life."

"Every time King Xian comes here, he doesn't give us court ladies a good look! Especially those who serve His Highness personally, they will be poked out by his eye knife every time."

"Others don't know, but I'm quite scared anyway. If you want to send me to Xian Wangfu, I'd rather be a handyman in the East Palace!"

The new maid nodded quickly, expressing that she understood.

But the older maids also knew in their hearts that these newcomers had never seen King Xian's chilly look, so naturally they would not take these words to heart.

She could only do her best, and finally said: "As slaves, we have to care about our master all the time, but this care must have a limit."

"Those who are particularly concerned about the master's whereabouts, who have to inquire about the master's related matters, and who often go to the master, will stay here for a short time. They will be replaced after a while."

"To be a person, you must know how to be content, and you must be grateful for His Highness's kindness. Only after staying here will you know that there is no one who is more generous than Your Highness."

The new maid: nodding wildly!

Qi Wenliang didn't know what happened here, and didn't care.

He knew very well that after telling Hongliu about Xiao'e sending her away, Hongliu would take care of the matter.

The maid who served him personally would change every now and then, and no amount of spies would stay long.

The only thing that worries him is tomorrow morning.

According to Mo Bai's follow-up news, this matter will probably fall on him.

The morning morning the next day did not disappoint him.

Dali Temple couldn't find anything, so the emperor asked him to check.

It's just that I didn't expect that there would be some people who disagreed when investigating this case to solve the case.
