I rely on solving the case to attack the king of hell

Although this dynasty does not pay much attention to the defense of men and women, big families have their own rules after all. If the sons and daughters love each other and want to further communicate, they still have to get the consent of their parents and elders, and be accompanied by servants, maids or housekeepers. , to meet in public.

It is still regarded as incompatible with etiquette for people like Tao Tao to interact with men in private, and it is a taboo thing for rich families. In addition, Tao Tao learned to write love poems and embroider purses at a young age, which is even more shocking.

So the second lady was very proud to seize the handle of Zhang Mengyao's courtyard.Nanny and Butler Du were shocked and flustered. If the master found out, they would be scolded and punished.

Xie Zaiyue took the purse from the second lady and looked down.

The purse is made of good material, and Tao Tao's embroidery is exquisite.Two mandarin ducks play together in the water, looking at each other affectionately, their appearance is lifelike.A row of small poems on the right seem to appeal to tenderness and sweetness.

But, whose purse will this be for?What is the connection between the other party and the case?

Xie Zaiyue thought for a while, put the purse in his sleeve for the time being, and looked up again, the second wife was looking at him with a look of begging for praise, her eyes were extremely sincere, she was completely different from the domineering woman just now.

"Second Madam is really sharp." Xie Zaiyue was a little embarrassed by the other party's look, so she could only casually praise her.

Steward Du, who was standing aside, heard this, stepped forward anxiously, cupped his fists and said, "Master Xie, can this matter be handled in a low-key manner? After all, it is related to the reputation of my daughter's family. Before the situation is clear, it is not easy to draw conclusions."

Xie Zaiyue nodded and said: "Naturally, Dali Temple will not make public about this matter." Then he slowly glanced around a few people, and said in a low voice: "I hope you will keep it secret for the time being, and don't let this matter out. "

If the other party really has something to do with this case, after knowing that the purse was searched in Dali Temple, they may cover up their actions in the future, which will not be conducive to solving the case. Xie Zaiyue made this request.

Steward Du and Mammy couldn't wait more than they wanted, and immediately agreed.

Only the second wife was not reconciled and asked: "Even the master can't know?"

Xie Zaiyue glanced at her and said indifferently: "Second madam, keep your mouth shut, and contribute to the good security of Biancheng. Small request, big dedication, why not do madam?"

The second lady's eyes lit up when she heard the words, and said with a smile: "So that's the case, don't worry, my lord, I am very strict with my mouth."

Xie Zaiyue nodded in satisfaction, and asked again: "Is there a man of the same age as Tao Tao in the mansion?"

Butler Du thought for a while, and replied, "There are four of them, all of whom are sixteen or seventeen years old."

Yan Han said: "Besides, is there any other man who knows Tao Tao?"

Du Guanjia said: "Tao Tao usually stays with Miss, and hardly goes out for a walk. There are only two long-term laborers who do rough work in Miss's courtyard."

Yan Han thought for a while, and said, "Steward Du, find a reason to call these people separately, and don't mention Dali Temple."

Du Guanjia said: "A few adults want to observe secretly?"

Yan Han nodded.

Butler Du nodded: "My lord, wait a moment, let me make some arrangements."

Butler Du acted resolutely, and not long after, he invited a few people behind a screen, took the presiding seat under the pretext of talking about wages, and called them in for questioning one by one.

At the beginning, Xie Zaiyue was full of ambition, thinking that Tao Tao's lover should be among several people, but after seeing several people, he couldn't help being disappointed.

Some of these people are as fat as balls, some are as thin as sticks, some have yellow teeth, and some are simply missing teeth. Tao will give them a sneak peek.

Just as he was disappointed, he heard a gentle voice from outside, "Butler Du, why are you here?"

Xie Zaiyue looked curiously, and saw a handsome scholar standing in front of the door, with a handsome appearance and a gentle temperament.

Butler Du stood up and said with a smile, "Mr. Gu, what do you want me to do?"

Mr. Gu?This is the teacher in the house, the great talent that Zhang Mengyao called?Xie Zaiyue and Yan Han glanced at each other, and at the same time cast their probing eyes beyond the screen.

Mr. Gu walked in slowly, and said: "It's not a big deal, I just want to support some money and buy some paper and ink. Missy is eager to learn and uses it quickly."

Du Guanjia said: "It's a trivial matter, Mr. Gu can find a villain to talk about it, but he even went there himself, it's tiring."

Mr. Gu smiled, and said, "It's okay, the eldest lady finishes her class today, and I'm fine." Then, lowering his voice, he asked, "Butler Du, did you hear that someone has come to Dali Temple?"

Steward Du was startled, glanced at him, and quickly said calmly, "Why did Mr. Gu ask this?"

Mr. Gu played with the same accessory on his waist, and sighed: "To tell the truth to Steward Du, Miss is in a trance all day because of Tao Tao's incident. I am afraid that she will drop her studies, so I hope that the case will make progress and the murderer will be brought to justice soon. "

Butler Du said calmly: "This case will definitely come to light. Please rest assured, Mr. Gu. I will also ask the master to persuade Miss."

Mr. Gu touched a soft nail, and couldn't help but change his expression, but only for a moment, he adjusted his emotions again, and said: "Even so, Gu is relieved."

Butler Du smiled and nodded, and said, "Is there anything else, Mr. Gu?"

Mr. Gu stood up and said, "If you need me, please ask Butler Du to speak directly. Mr. Zhang has treated me with great kindness, and Mr. Gu has been thinking about how to repay me."

Butler Du smiled and responded with a few words, and then Mr. Gu left Shi Shiran.

Behind the screen, Hengbo raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "I said this teacher must have red lips and white teeth, and he is a handsome young man. Mr. Xie, do you think my reasoning is accurate?"

Xie Zaiyue didn't speak, but Yan Han also looked pensive.Seeing this, Song Liuguang was displeased and said, "Where is it so handsome? There is some distance between him and this king."

Hengbo cast a sideways glance at him, ignored it, and said in a low voice, "Based on my sensitivity to scandals and gossip, the Zhang family may be singing "The Romance of the West Chamber."

As soon as the words were finished, Butler Du had walked around behind the screen, cupped his hands and said, "My lords, are those servants suspicious?"

Xie Zaiyue raised her head and thoughtfully said: "That Mr. Gu just now... is he familiar with Tao Tao?"

Butler Du looked at the direction where Mr. Gu was leaving, frowned and thought for a moment, then replied: "In the past, the eldest lady was always accompanied by Tao Tao to class, they...should be familiar..." Dun Dun, then asked tentatively : "Master Xie thinks that Tao Tao and Mr. Gu...have an affair?"

Xie Zaiyue was lost in thought, Hengbo giggled, and replied instead: "Not necessarily, I think Tao Tao is just a little matchmaker, and your miss and Mr. Gu are Cui Yingying and Zhang Sheng."

As soon as these words came out, Butler Du was really shocked. The wrinkles on his face and those shrewd eyes raised a strange arc together, which was full of inconceivable, but unexpectedly, Butler Du was stunned for a while, But never opened his mouth to refute.

Xie Zaiyue looked at Steward Du carefully, and he felt that perhaps what shocked the other party was not the incident itself, but Hengbo's quick discovery of something strange.Reminiscent of Zhang Mengyao's expression when he mentioned Mr. Gu, Xie Zaiyue is almost sure that these two people really have an unusual relationship.

However, will these romances have anything to do with the case?Xie Zaiyue did not dare to assert.

Coming out of Zhang's mansion, the night has already closed, and it has been snowing for a long time, and the interest is still undiminished, and I still enjoy swimming in this area of ​​mountains, rivers and bright moon.The temperature at night is low, and many snowflakes have already established a foothold in the world, and then they are ready to expand their territories and vow to change the world into new clothes.

A gust of cold wind blew by, Song Liuguang shrank his neck, and finally obediently put the folding fan that had been used as a prop all day into his sleeve.

Then look at Mrs. Yan in single clothes, standing tall and graceful, with a calm expression, not afraid of the heavy snow and the biting cold wind at all.

Song Liuguang couldn't help thinking to himself, Mr. Yan, a real man, he was really blind at the beginning, thinking that beauty could be bullied or suppressed, but fortunately he woke up early, otherwise the end would be unpredictable.

Looking away, Xie Zaiyue was still staring at Yan Han with a perverted look, and after a while, he took off his cloak and wanted to put it on for Lord Yan!Is this slowness, or is it a ruthless heart, or is it a slap in the face of a superior?Or... he thanked the Lord just for being bold?

Song Liuguang guessed wildly for a while, and saw that Lord Yan of Yushu Linfeng refused the clothes offered by the other party, and only asked Sir Xie if he was cold, then he held Xie Zaiyue's hands in his hands, forcibly conveying warmth, and left A few steps away, he was close to hugging people in his arms and asking for warmth.

The tall Yan Han lowered his head to look at the shorter Xie Zaiyue from time to time, and said something in a low voice. He was always smiling and looked at the young man beside him gently.

Seeing this scene, the experienced Song Liuguang naturally tasted the three flavors, but he couldn't believe it, and even the three views were shaken to pieces. When did the two develop to this point?Since Mr. Yan is the one above, then Mr. Xie... Well, it turns out that Mr. Xie has gone so far in order to chase after a beauty?Xiao Wang is really ashamed of himself, ashamed of himself!

Song Liuguang, who was looking at Yan Xie and his body, didn't notice Hengbo's stern expression at all, and his hands hanging by his sides were tightly clenched into fists.

Yan Han and the others had just entered Dali Temple, and Liu Yu, who had been waiting in the wind and snow for an unknown amount of time, immediately went up to greet him, full of melancholy, and said, "Master Yan, Sir Xie, there is nothing but mud at the corpse throwing site."

Yan Han nodded, this was within his expectation, asking Liu Yu to investigate was just for peace of mind.

"Damn it, this murderer is really sick." Liu Yu couldn't help cursing, "Such a young girl, what kind of enmity can she have with him, she must kill everyone."

Yan Han lowered his head and thought for a while, then suddenly said with difficulty: "Maybe it's not because of hatred, some people...have great evil thoughts in their hearts, killing and dismembering corpses may be a kind of...joy to them..."

As soon as the voice fell, everyone in the room suddenly fell silent, and the room fell into an extremely oppressive silence, only the cold wind roaring outside the window, slapping the window lattice once or twice.
