Ye Mao's wife, Li Qiuniang, arranged a room for the four guests to rest. Qin Wenxian and Zheng Lixiao's room was next door. After Qin Wenxian pushed Zheng Lixiao, who was still pestering him to drink together, into the room, he went back to sleep.

In order to find the buyers of the three Maoyuan these days, Qin Wenxian didn't sleep well. Tonight he set off blue fireworks in the courtyard of Ye Mansion. This was the signal agreed by the Qin family. Rong Fei saw that They will know that he is here in the future, and Rongfei should come here with the people from the Liuzhou County Government in the morning.

Thinking of this, Qin Wenxian relaxed a little, lay down on an unfamiliar bed and fell into a deep sleep.

Half asleep, half awake, he felt that someone entered his room and touched his bedside. Qin Wenxian was taught martial arts by his grandfather and mother since he was a child, and he couldn't completely relax even if he slept outside.

So when the man approached his bedside, before he opened his eyes, he immediately raised his leg and swept over.

"Ouch……"

With a familiar cry of pain, Qin Wenxian got up and opened his eyes, seeing Zheng Lixiao lying on the ground, he was very embarrassed for a while.

"His Royal Highness, why is it you?!"

Zheng Lixiao got up from the ground rubbing his painful buttocks, and complained aggrievedly: "Who else is there if it's not me? What kind of assassin, you have to protect this king!"

Qin Wenxian didn't believe his exaggerated acting skills, "As far as I know, all the children of the royal family will be protected by the royal guards when they go out."

Even if Xie Huaili and Tang Linghao, who came on the same road, had left first, His Royal Highness Yiwang seemed to be alone, and it was just a look. Even if there were no subordinates guarding by his side, there should be hidden guards following him secretly, no matter what This is also a prince, even if everyone in the world thinks he is just a dandy who spends his days and drinks.

"Wen Xian, don't you want to stay in the same room with me? Do you hate me?" Zheng Lixiao blinked his eyes, looking pitiful.

"I'm afraid you can't do it..." Qin Wenxian really couldn't stand him acting like a child like a baby, so he raised the white flag helplessly, got up and got ready to get out of bed, "Then I'll go find a bedding and make a bed on the floor..."

Zheng Lixiao hastily pressed him down, "Don't bother me, I'm sleeping on the bed with you, I was hurt by you just now, please rub it for me!"

"Uh..." If he wasn't the prince, Qin Wenxian would have kicked him again.

In the end, Qin Wenxian still ignored Zheng Lixiao's noise, and insisted on making a bed next to the bed.

Originally the ground was hard and cold, but Zheng Lixiao was still looking for something to say, which made Qin Wenxian unable to complain. It seemed that he would not be able to sleep well that night.

At dawn, Qin Wenxian immediately got up to dress and wash, while Zheng Lixiao was still snoozing on the bed, Qin Wenxian didn't want others to know that they slept in the same room last night, so he pushed him, "Your Highness King Yi , it's time to get up."

"No, I'm so sleepy..." Zheng Lixiao turned over and continued to sleep.

A woman's scream suddenly sounded outside the house, Qin Wenxian was startled, and immediately opened the door and went out.

Seeing a maid outside panicked and fell to the ground, she pointed to the room next door with the door wide open, which was Zhao Qiming's room.

Qin Wenxian walked to the door and saw that the wine jug and two wine glasses were overturned on the table, and blood was everywhere on the floor in the room. Zhao Qiming's clothes were disheveled, with a knife stuck in his chest, and he fell on the bloody bed.

There was a young woman lying down in a pool of blood on the ground, her head hit the fallen chair, her face was covered in bloodstains from knife cuts, and she looked horrific. From the red embroidered skirt on her body, one could tell that she was from the Ye family. Miss Ye Rong.

Qin Wenxian checked in front and found that Zhao Qiming was out of breath, and Miss Ye's family was still alive.

He thought it was important to save people, so he hurried outside to ask someone to take Ye Rong to seek treatment. Fortunately, Ye's family is in the business of medicinal materials, and there are many people in the mansion who understand medical principles.

After the two servants of the Ye family carried Ye Rong away, they revealed a bloody footprint next to her body.

Was it left by the murderer?

Qin Wenxian measured the size of the bloody footprint with his hands, and concluded that the person should be a man.

"How did this happen?" Qin Wenxian went outside and asked the maid, "What did you see when you came?"

The maid stammered: "I... I don't know... Madam asked me to invite the guests to have breakfast... But I saw my young lady lying in the guest room covered in blood..."

It was so loud outside that sleepy Zheng Lixiao couldn't sleep because of the noise. He yawned and came out with his clothes on. He was shocked when he saw the scene next door, and hurried to Qin Wenxian to ask about the situation.

"This dude is trying too hard to make himself happy, and both of them have blood splashed on the spot..." Zheng Lixiao was babbling there, Qin Wenxian gave him an elbow, and reminded him not to talk nonsense with his eyes, it was not far away at this time Ding Sheng from the other room also came out and walked towards them.

"Young Master Qin, His Highness King Yi, what's the matter with you? Has something happened?"

Seeing the situation in front of him, Ding Sheng took a look into Zhao Qiming's room, and immediately widened his eyes, "This...how did this happen?"

"Why don't you go to eat?"

Ye Mao and his wife Li Qiuniang rushed over when they heard the news. Seeing that everyone gathered at the door of Zhao Qiming's house, they also took a look inside. They were shocked to see what was going on inside, and they were about to enter the house immediately.

Qin Wenxian pulled Ye Mao back in time, "Don't go in, someone from the government will come later, don't destroy the crime scene."

"What happened?! How did my sister get hurt?!"

Ye Mao looked sad and angry, Mrs. Ye beside him saw the blood and dead people all over the room, she screamed and passed out, other maids in the mansion rushed over to help, the scene became even more chaotic.

On the other side, the door knocker outside Ye Mansion was knocked forcefully: "Open the door! Open the door!"

As soon as the housekeeper of Ye's mansion opened the door, he saw Rong Fei, Zhou Hang, magistrate of Liuzhou, and a large group of police officers standing outside. A group of people rushed into the yard and took control of the crime scene.

"Sir!"

Rong Fei went to look for Qin Wenxian as soon as he entered the door, and was relieved to see that he was safe and sound.

Zhou Hang, the magistrate of Liuzhou County, also followed him. He was a middle-aged man in his 40s. Although he was a bit fat, he moved quite quickly. , a little surprised, he cupped his fists respectfully and saluted, but the scene at this time was not polite, so he immediately began to deal with the murder case in front of him.

Ye Mao's wife was helped down by the maids to rest. Zhou Hang left Ye Mao, Ding Sheng and everyone present to inquire about the incident. The officials sealed off Zhao Qiming's room, and then asked for an autopsy on the corpse inside.

After a while, the yamen servants carried Zhao Qiming's body back to the morgue of the county yamen, and Wu Zuo went to the side hall to report the autopsy to Qin Wenxian and Zhou Hang.

"Based on the spots on the corpse and the blood coagulation, the person should have been killed around midnight, and the murder weapon was the knife on Zhao Qiming's body.

I just asked the people in the Ye Mansion, that knife is a long knife in the kitchen, very ordinary, nothing special.

The murderer should have knocked Zhao Qiming out and scratched Miss Ye's face while they were unprepared while they were having sex with each other, and then killed Zhao Qiming. "

Qin Wenxian asked: "Did Zhao Qiming be killed with a knife? Can you tell what kind of person the murderer is from the way he kills? Can he know martial arts?"

Wu Zuo was awakened by his words, and immediately nodded: "Indeed, Zhao Qiming was killed with a single knife, which shows that although the murderer chose a simple weapon, it was indeed done by a person with martial arts."
