She is the legend of the rivers and lakes

As Mei Xianghan expected, no useful clues were found near the crime scene, not even a trace of outsiders entering. The head and representatives of the big sect protect other people.

Back at the inn, only the disciples of Wuyin Villa were sitting in the lobby waiting for their eldest lady to come back, and Sheng Liu was probably in the room.Mei Xianghan went upstairs with a heavy heart, and didn't hear Lan Xin's conversation behind her at all.

"Miss, this female devil is too arrogant!" Some disciples couldn't hold back when they saw their gentle, beautiful and well-loved eldest lady being ignored by others.

"That's right, Miss took her in here, yet she dared to ignore you, Miss!"

"Okay," Lan Xin's tone was very calm, as if she didn't care about what happened just now, and she even defended her, "Captain Mei is worrying about the murder case, so please don't bother her if you have nothing to do."

"If that female devil was half as good as you, Miss, our martial arts wouldn't be suppressed by the court like this."

"That's right, those court hawks thought they were righteous, but they were doing the worst deeds!"

"Okay." After listening to them venting, Lan Xin said, "It's fine to talk about these things here, and don't talk nonsense after you go out. Wulin is also a martial art of great propaganda, and the imperial court should supervise it."

"Miss..."

The disciples seemed to have some objections, but Lan Xin had already turned around and went upstairs.

When Mei Xianghan passed by Shengliu's room, seeing the closed door, she was a little lost in thought, recovered and smiled at herself before returning to her own room next door.Now I don't know what happened between Yue Zhou and Yu Fei, let alone if they offended someone. I can only hope that tomorrow Qi Wuzuo will find some clues that have been missed on the two corpses.

Another indistinct sound of breathing came from the next door. Mei Xianghan lay on the bed, took out the jade pendant from her bosom, and stared at it in a daze.After regaining consciousness and sighing, Mei Xianghan put away the jade pendant. Hearing the downstairs gradually quiet down, she extinguished the candles on the table with a single finger, and fell asleep with her clothes on.

Early the next morning, Mei Xianghan went downstairs to the backyard to practice her sword skills for a while. When she raised her head, she happened to see Sheng Liu pushing open the window, so she greeted her with a smile, "Good morning, Miss Liu Liu."

Sheng Liu originally planned to open the window to get some air and go downstairs, but he didn't expect to see that person as soon as he opened the window. Closed and went back.

Mei Xianghan maintained the smile on his face, withdrew his greeting hand, stretched his waist, and smiled at the other people who cracked the window to see the joke: "Have you seen enough? If you haven't seen enough, come out and learn two tricks?"

As soon as the voice fell, there was the sound of closing windows.

Not long after breakfast, Lin Yi rushed over with Qi Wuzuo.

Arching his hands at Qi Wuzuo, Mei Xianghan said, "This time I have to trouble Brother Qi again."

"What are you being polite about, Mr. Mei Butou?"

"That's right, I'm the one who saw someone else, so let's go directly to the yamen."

Seeing that she was about to leave with someone, Lan Xin walked over and said, "Young master has worked hard all the way here, why don't you sit down and have a drink before going to the yamen?"

"No need," Mei Xianghan waved his hands and said, "He likes to eat after the autopsy."

"It's still Mei Tutou who understands me."

After finishing speaking, the three of them left the inn, leaving behind the disciples to discuss: "The friend of the female devil is indeed not a normal person!"

"Yes, and the little girl from yesterday, she doesn't seem to be a good person at first glance!"

Sheng Liu was going to go downstairs, but when he heard them talking about the little girl from yesterday, he subconsciously stopped and leaned on the corner of the stairs where no one else could see to eavesdrop.

"I think that girl's background is definitely not simple. She can make this female devil dare not neglect her. She is definitely rich or expensive."

"If you say that, I'm afraid this girl..."

I'm afraid it's not a royal person.Sheng Liu accepted it for him in his heart, but if this was the case, then Mei Xianghan's relationship with the court would have to be reassessed - in her opinion, if the five members of the Mei family could have a relationship with the royal family, it must be Checking and balancing with the royal family, instead of being so friendly on the surface, but if the girl yesterday was from the royal family...

That problem got trickier.

Hearing that Mei Xianghan himself had also arrived at the Yamen, the county magistrate walked to the gate to greet him personally. Although he was the sixth rank and Mei Xianghan had no rank, her family background alone was enough for him to look up to: "Master Mei is here, next time The official is far away."

"It's okay, Mr. Mu works day and night for the people, so there is no need to be polite." Mei Xianghan asked his subordinates to find out the surname of the county magistrate here in advance. As soon as he said this, he saw the flattered joy on the other party's face, "Master Mu also knows, Next time I came here for the case, so I won’t exchange too many pleasantries with Master Mu.”

"Yes, Mr. Mei, please." While leading the way, the county magistrate said, "The corpses you sent yesterday have all been properly parked."

"Master Mu has a heart." Seeing that the place where the corpse was parked arrived, Mei Xianghan stopped and said, "Master Mu must have a lot of business to deal with, so I won't take up Master Mu's time, just go and get busy." .”

The magistrate was stunned for a moment and said, "I'm not busy."

Mei Xianghan seemed to have not heard, and said again with a smile: "Master Mu must have a lot of business to deal with, so go and do it."

The county magistrate shuddered unconsciously. Seeing the slight smile on Mei Xianghan's face, he quickly lowered his head and said, "What Master Mei said is true, then I will leave first."

"Master Mu, go slowly." Mei Xianghan said quietly without looking back.

The guards were dismissed, leaving only Mei Xianghan and Qi Wuzuo in the room.

Mei Xianghan stood aside and said, "Call me if you need help."

"I won't be polite to you, don't worry." Rolling up his sleeves, putting on his gloves, Qi Wuzuo stepped forward to check.He skillfully took off the clothes on the corpse, looked through the eyes and nose, saw the soles of the feet all the way, and said, "Please help me turn over."

Obviously, this was not the first time that this happened. Mei Xianghan skillfully turned the body over and asked Qi Wuzuo to continue to examine it.Qi Wuzuo checked very carefully, and soon saw a suspicious place: "Master Mei, look here."

Mei Xianghan followed his fingers and saw many inconspicuous black dots on Yue Zhou's back, which didn't seem to grow naturally: "This is..."

The two looked at each other, and Qi Wuzuo said, "Look at the other one."

This time, Qi Wuzuo went straight to look at Yu Fei's back, and sure enough, like Yue Zhou, there were many black spots on his back.

Mei Xianghan nodded and said, "I'll find someone to get the cinnabar."

Brought cinnabar and a brush from Ji Dong, Qi Wuzuo skillfully dipped the pen into the water soaked in cinnabar, and smeared it on the black spots on the backs of the two corpses.

Soon, a very coquettish red peony appeared.

"Sure enough," Mei Xianghan took off the gloves on her hand, rubbed her chin, narrowed her eyes, thoughtful.
