Queen's Detective

Cold sweat broke out on Yuan Yiqing's forehead. He put his hands on his lap, and his sitting posture was still upright, but his face became paler and paler.Although he comes from an ordinary family, he has read classics and history since he was a child. He is virtuous and benevolent. Although he is a famous scholar, he still goes to help the shop every day, and he never cares about Xiaoyue's background. No one does not praise Yuan A good boy came out of the family.

But now, he encountered the biggest problem in his life.

If it is said that he killed someone, then his fame and career will be ruined, and his life will also be ruined.

But if Xiaoyue killed someone, he could save himself, but what about his beloved woman?Just watch her die like this?

If she chooses the latter, Xiaoyue will definitely not blame him... He didn't kill people in the first place, so is he going to sacrifice himself for a woman?Why?

As soon as this idea came out, Yuan Yiqing broke out in cold sweat, and his eyes widened suddenly.

He seemed to see an endless abyss in front of his eyes, and that abyss was at his feet, as long as he took another step forward, he would never turn back.

Yuan Yiqing, you have read so many books in vain, how could you have such dirty thoughts!Yuan Yiqing said this to himself, clenched his hands tightly.

This incident was originally caused by him, and Xiaoyue is so innocent.She is so kind to herself, so dependent...

But once the black thought arises, it cannot be ignored, it seems to be rooted in the deepest part of Yuan Yiqing's heart, and he keeps laughing wildly.

Yuan Yiqing closed his eyes in pain, he was struggling, while Yan Sanbai and the others were waiting.After a long time, Yuan Yiqing finally opened his eyes and said dryly, "I..."

"Let me in!"

However, at this moment, an anxious female voice suddenly came from outside.Yuan Yiqing stood up when he heard the voice, "Xiaoyue!"

The officials stopped Xiaoyue outside, and the King of Luoyang ordered that no one should disturb them when they were talking inside.But Xiaoyue didn't care, she looked at the hall full of worry, and anxiously searched for the figure of her lover.Finally, she saw him at a glance, so she waved and shouted: "Yi Qing!"

Li Yan waved his hand, "Let her in."

After being released, Xiaoyue stumbled in immediately, pulled Yuan Yiqing to look left and right, her eyes were flushed, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Yuan Yiqing touched her head gently, and said, "Why are you here, good boy, go home and wait, I'll be back soon."

"No." Xiaoyue shook her head resolutely, with tears streaming down her cheeks, "I saw it all. Just now I saw that you hadn't returned for a long time, so I went to Qianjiang Tower. I saw that official took I took a pen out, they must all know, and you still let me go back, do you want to help me take the blame?"

Yuan Yiqing fell silent, and in the silence, everyone understood his choice just now.

Xiaoyue's eyes were filled with tears. Although she was in pain, she was also happy. She stretched out her hand to caress Yuan Yiqing's face, shaking her head slightly, "No, you can't do this. You should have a bright future. How could you be so happy because of me, because I……"

As she said this, a flash of determination suddenly flashed in her eyes, then she turned around and knelt down in the direction of Li Yan and Yan Sanbai, "My lord, Mrs. Yan, I killed the miss! I'll grab it."

Yuan Yiqing was startled, and quickly tried to hold her back, but there was no time.He gritted his teeth and knelt down, "My lord, Lord Yan, please be careful! It was Qin Sang who wanted to kill Xiaoyue first, and Xiaoyue had no choice but to resist in order to protect herself, so she accidentally pushed her down." Go upstairs, this is an unintentional mistake!"

The man has gold under his knees, and Yuan Yiqing has fame and fame, no one can force him to do so.But now that he knelt down, Qiu Chan was a little moved.

This man is quite friendly.

Yan Sanbai's eyes were also slightly complicated, but there were still some questions that had to be asked, "There are a few more questions, both of you must answer truthfully."

Yuan Yiqing supported Xiaoyue and nodded.

"Mr. Yuan, do you know the red rag on the roof of the Qianjiang building?" Yan Sanbai asked, if Qin Sang was pushed downstairs, then that rag should not have appeared there.

"I let it go. Xiaoyue was flustered after killing someone by mistake, so she found me. I didn't want her to be busy, and relying on my own knowledge of three-legged cat kung fu, I secretly tore off a piece of Qin Sang's clothes and let her go. When we reached the top of the building, we concealed ourselves."

Yan San understood clearly, the candle on the window sill must have been put there afterward.

"There is one last question. Does the death of Li Qian and Cheng Rui have anything to do with you?"

Xiaoyue Huo raised her head, "My lord, I really don't know their deaths. After I accidentally pushed the young lady downstairs, I regretted it too much. How could I kill someone again!"

Yuan Yiqing also hurriedly defended, "Yes, my lord, let's not say that Xiaoyue has no grievances or enmities with them. She has been resting in my home for the past few days. It is absolutely impossible for her to be the murderer. Please find out clearly!"

Yan Sanbai didn't reply, but kept staring into Xiaoyue's eyes. If Xiaoyue was the murderer, it fit the guess of 'the murderer was a woman'.

However, Xiaoyue's eyes were open, and there was nothing.Yan Sanbai withdrew his gaze and looked back at Li Yan.

Li Yan waved his hand, and immediately an official sent over to take Xiaoyue away.Yuan Yiqing became anxious immediately, and Yan Sanbai comforted him: "It's not the time for the final conviction, but Miss Xiaoyue is the real murderer after all, so she is temporarily imprisoned in the yamen, if Mr. Yuan is really worried, you can visit her. "

Yuan Yiqing just gave up, but still followed the official, all the way, until he confirmed that Xiaoyue was only locked up.

In the hall, Huineng also got up to say goodbye, he looked a little lonely, obviously he couldn't accept the change that happened just now, "Blesser Yan, I'm going back to continue my meditation, if this happened, Master will definitely scold me for my unclean wisdom roots. "

"Little master, don't worry about it."

Hui Neng shook his head helplessly, turned around and walked a few steps, but then turned around and said: "There are so many worries in the world of mortals, and the benefactor Xiaoyue made a mistake because of being forced to do so. Please be kind to the benefactors. I thank you in advance."

After all, Huineng left, Yan Sanbai watched his back leave, and then turned to look at the last person who was still here - Qiu Chan.

"Miss, did you enjoy watching it?" Yan Sanbai asked.

"It's very exciting, but it's a pity that he's an infatuated old teaser," Qiu Chan felt a little regretful, but then became happy again, raising her eyebrows and said, "But this story doesn't seem to be finished yet, I'm looking forward to it."

"Miss Qiuchan seems to like listening to stories." Yan Sanbai smiled slightly, "But I feel that the girl herself is a story that needs to be explored."

Qiuchan walked up to Yan Sanbai, brushed his temples with her hand, leaned over slightly and showed a charming smile, and the heat was blowing on his face, "Then you want to keep me and find out?"

Yan Sanbai was suddenly embarrassed, and opened his mouth wide alone, while Amon continued to laugh.Seeing Qiu Chan getting closer and closer, Yan Sanbai wanted to push her away, but he felt that it was wrong to push her, and he was in a dilemma. Suddenly, a folding fan stretched out, between Yan Sanbai and Qiu Chan's faces.

A folding fan is divided into yin and yang, and the black and white fans face Yan Sanbai and Qin Sang respectively. The pure color is as simple as possible.

Yan Sanbai suddenly saw a large smear of whiteness appear in front of his eyes, and then hands stretched out and pulled him, and in an instant, he was pulled behind a certain broad shoulder.

Swish, a big piece of red!

"Miss Qiuchan, this king has said it, he is thin-skinned, if you want to move him, you have to ask me first." A magnetic but open-minded voice sounded in his ears, and Qiuchan and Yan Sanbai looked up together.

Today's King of Luoyang didn't wear his little golden crown, only a bun on his head, a mahogany hairpin inserted obliquely, and a wide robe with big sleeves. He didn't look like a prince at all.

Qiu Chan, who was facing him directly, felt a palpitating aura from his eyes, and then she blinked and took a step back, "My lord is really not sympathetic at all, little girl has decided that she will never like you again. .”

"Huh?" Lone Ding's eyes couldn't help but widen, what's this unfolding?

At this time, Yan Sanbai poked his head out from behind Li Yan. He was still scruples about Qiu Chan, so he refused to take a step forward, so he poked out half of his head, "If Miss Qiu Chan has nothing else to do, you can go back first." gone."

"Don't keep me?" Yan Sanbai tilted his head, and Qiuchan followed him.

"Girl, as long as you don't go out of the city these days, it's not safe outside," Yan Sanbai smiled, "I even met an assassin yesterday."

"Really, it's a good thing that the young master is fine." Qiu Chan's eyes fluttered, and then she glanced at Li Yan and Yan Sanbai's posture, then ended the riddle-like conversation, left a meaningful thank you, and said goodbye.

Li Yan turned his head, his slender Danfeng eyes narrowed, "Did you meet the assassin yesterday?"

Yan Sanbai took a step back, touched his nose, "Uh... yes."

"Why don't you tell me?"

"This is my private matter." Yan Sanbai replied truthfully.

The fact that the assassin wanted to take his life had nothing to do with this case, let alone Li Yan. Yan Sanbai didn't want to bring unnecessary trouble to them, so of course he wouldn't say anything.

But Li Yan obviously didn't think so.

"This is my king's Luoyang City. You are my guest. If you have an assassin, aren't you slapping me in the face?"

"My lord, you don't need to be so concerned. They should kill me because of some old things, and my lightness kung fu is high enough. Usually at this moment, I will only come back with a feather."

Old things?Li Yan couldn't help frowning, hearing this, I'm afraid this matter is not simple, "Do you know who wants to kill you?"

Yan Sanbai shook his head, "I don't know who it is, but it should be related to the Yan family."

The Yan family, that once behemoth, now thinks of it like a dream.But now that the world is peaceful, it does not mean that some hatred will disappear with time. The calmer the lake is, the more turbulent the dark waves are.

And the fuse of the Yan family's demise is in the final analysis still the current royal family. If it wasn't for the two brothers, Li Yan's father and the current emperor, who destroyed the entire north all the way, the head of the Yan family at that time, Yan Sanbai's grandfather Yan Zhong will not commit suicide either.

So in this matter, Li Yan realized that he really had no right to speak.

"Let's continue to investigate the case. The assassin doesn't know when he will come again. Instead of worrying about it, it's better to settle the matter at hand first." Yan Sanbai said, considerately not going further.

Li Yan nodded, and the others headed back home first.

On the way, Ling Ding's stomach was full of questions, and before he got home, he couldn't help asking: "What should we do now? Qin Sang was killed by Xiaoyue, so what about Li Qian and Cheng Rui? Xiaoyue and Yuan If Yi Qing denies it, the clue will be broken."

"Not necessarily, don't you think Xiaoyue and Yuan Yiqing are not suspicious at all?" Amon asked back.

"It doesn't look like it. That Mr. Yuan can be regarded as loving and righteous. Xiaoyue is a hard-working girl who was almost killed! And she has no grudge against Li Qian and Chen Rui..."

"Xiaoyue is indeed not the murderer." Yan Sanbai turned around and said.

Ling Ding raised his eyebrows, "Look, I'll just say it!"

Amon glanced at him, "Hehe."

Alone rolled his eyes, "Oh, you are three thousand six hundred miles away from the Jiuqu River!"

Amon was still smiling, "Hey."

Ling Ding: "..."

But Li Yan seemed to hear other meanings from Yan Sanbai's words, "Xiaoyue is indeed not the murderer", so who is the murderer?

Moreover, Yan Sanbai's attitude towards Qiu Chan...is intriguing. It seems that there are indeed many uninvited guests in Luoyang City.

Thinking of this, he turned his head and looked at Amon.Amon also turned his head with a tacit understanding, saw his prince's eyes, and nodded imperceptibly.

Walking to the next corner, Li Yan stopped suddenly, and said to Yan Sanbai: "I remember that I still owe you a meal at Yan Yanglou."

Only then did Yan Sanbai remember, it seemed that Li Yan had indeed said that when he found the murderer who killed Qin Sang, he would treat him to a good meal.Rubbing his stomach, he was hungry, so Yan Sanbai didn't refuse.He reached out and touched the money bag secretly, it's bulging!Since following Luoyang King, I haven't spent a single copper plate, and the remaining silver taels can be spent for a long time!

Thinking of this, Yan Sanbai couldn't help showing a faint and sincere smile.Life is to be so contented and happy.

Yan Sanbai and Li Yan went to eat alone, but Amon left at the next intersection, "There were a few cockroaches in the palace, the prince always loves cleanliness, I have to go back and clean them up, so I won't go. "

Yan Sanbai did not suspect him, and followed Li Yan.

On the other side, Yuan Yiqing returned home.

Because he was considerate of his momentary confusion, no one made it difficult for him, but although Yuan Yiqing was not imprisoned, when he returned to the empty home, he still felt like he was wearing shackles.

If, if he hadn't written that line of poetry, wouldn't things be like this...

Yuan Yiqing thought in a daze, and stood alone in the courtyard for a long time.When the old servant saw him, he hurried over and called, "Master, come in and have dinner."

"Dinner?" Yuan Yiqing shook his head, "I'm not hungry, Uncle, you can eat first."

"But Miss Xiaoyue has cooked a lot of dishes, young master, you should eat some."

"Made by Xiaoyue?" Yuan Yiqing's eyes finally showed a rippling, he ran in quickly to take a look, and saw a table of sumptuous dishes placed there, each of which was held in a bowl, Yuan Yiqing Looking at it, I even seemed to see Xiaoyue's busy back.

"Master, where's Miss Xiaoyue? Didn't she come back with you?" The old servant asked without knowing why.

Yuan Yiqing didn't know how to answer, but just asked: "Did she say anything when she went out just now?"

The old servant has a bad memory, shook his head, and remembered after a while, "Oh, Miss Xiaoyue said, let the young master eat well, eat more meat, and don't study too late at night... Hey, what are you doing, young master?" Cried?"

Yuan Yiqing quickly reached out to wipe away tears, sat down at the table, and opened the bowls one by one.He picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed it seriously, as if he was feeling Xiaoyue's deep affection for him.
