"Since Mrs. Sun is seriously ill, she must have someone to serve her, but Sun Lingqun only brought two loyal servants, and those two servants are men, so it is impossible to serve Mrs. Sun."

Sitting in the private room of a tea house, Huangfu Nan looked at the crowds coming and going on the street below, and said: "Who is the maid that Mrs. Sun brought back from her mother's house married to?"

Wu Hao: "I heard that she is married to a steward of the Sun House, and that steward is the steward of Zhuangzi not far from Xijing City."

The expression on Zhan Zhao's face was turbulent, time was pressing, but it was useless to be anxious, the more urgent, the more he couldn't lose his footing.He picked up the teapot on the table, poured two cups of tea, and pushed one of them towards Huangfu Nan.

Huangfu Nan was taken aback, and said thank you softly.

Zhan Zhao put down the teapot, and said slowly, "Besides the maid, I also want to visit the doctor who once prescribed the medicine for Mrs. Sun."

Huangfu Nan looked at Zhan Zhao, "Why don't you and I do things separately."

"Alright, let Wu Hao take you outside the city to find Mrs. Sun's maid, and I'll go find the doctor."

Huangfu Nan nodded, drank the hot tea he was holding inside, and went out of the city with Wu Hao.Zhan Zhao is not in a hurry, because Mrs. Sun has been ill for a while, and there must be many doctors who have seen her. Which one is the most important?After thinking for a while, he hooked up a chair with his long legs, and rested a pair of long legs on it, with a casual yet chic posture.

He summoned the shop waiter, "Are you new here?"

"The young one just came here to work, but he is a native of Xijing."

Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly, "Since this is the case, you must know Sun Lingqun too?"

The waiter came forward to pour tea, "Naturally, I know that the ancestral alchemy garden in grandpa's family is very famous in Xijing. Unfortunately, it was sold off two months ago. At that time, many people regretted it. Grandpa was quite famous at that time, but Grandpa Sun, especially after Grandpa married a wife, became even more famous."

"Why is this?"

"Everyone says that Mrs. Sun has been a flower lover since she was a child. She can't help admiring and planting flowers. She is proficient in planting peonies. After marrying Grandpa, the husband and wife work together to manage the peony garden in an orderly manner. Two years The ex-grandfather and his wife planted a new peony, and the peony bloomed, which was more beautiful and elegant than the other peonies in the garden. For this reason, grandpa named the peony Guose. But the first two Within a month, the peony named Guose also withered. Everyone said that the peony probably lived on Mrs. Sun's spirit. When she was sick, her spirit was weak, her blood was weak, and she couldn't support her naturally. national color."

As he said that, the shop waiter looked around again, and said in a low voice: "Who knows, but I once heard that Mrs. Sun had a fever two months ago and fell into a coma. After a few days, Master Sun took me She left. After they left, the beauty of the country withered. Some old people said that Mrs. Sun might be the reincarnation of the peony flower god. Since she married Grandpa Sun, the peonies in this dan garden have grown more beautiful every day. Later, when she fell ill, Grandpa Sun even sold the alchemy garden handed down by Grandpa Sun in order to treat her illness. This is not a good sign. The old people said that the country is dying now, maybe it means that Mrs. Sun died of illness on the road gone."

"Lang Lang Qian Kun, how can there be so many legends about gods and monsters that are credible?"

The waiter in the shop has long noticed that this Zhan Zhao in front of him is good-looking. Although he is sitting very casually, he does not look like a person who can be taken lightly. His brows are full of heroism, and he can tell at a glance that he is not an ordinary person. He has long been trying to please him. Hearing that he was inquiring about the Sun's residence, he could not wait to tell the whole story about what he had heard.

"My lord, that's not what I said. I once heard that Mrs. Sun was seriously ill and unconscious, and she died for a while. Later, I don't know what the doctor did, and she came back to life. Have you ever seen Has someone come back from the dead before? This thing is a mystery." The waiter said mysteriously.

Zhan Zhao glanced at him and said, "Back to life?"

The shop clerk nodded, "This is not a small nonsense, the little brother is working under Dr. Du who prescribes the medicine for Mrs. Sun. That day, Dr. Du happened to take him to Sun's residence. He saw it with his own eyes. For some reason, Mrs. Sun came back to life. But within a few days, Master Sun took his wife and left Xijing again."

Already dying, can you come back to life?

Zhan Zhao looked at the waiter in the shop, without frowning, his eyes were cold, showing a bit of dignity.

The waiter in the shop was startled, and quickly said: "You are not talking nonsense. If you don't believe me, you can go to Dr. Du to verify whether it is true." It's strange, my younger brother once told me not to tell outsiders, but now the younger one has told me, Lord, look—"

Zhan Zhao stood up, picked up the saber on the table, and walked out, casually throwing him some pieces of silver as he walked, "These are your reward."

The shop waiter caught the money Zhan Zhao threw to him, and his face was overjoyed, "Thank you for the reward, Lord! Please go slowly, Lord!"

In the bright moonlight, on the official road in Xijing, two horses galloped one behind the other.

During the daytime, Huangfu Nan and Zhan Zhao split up and found the doctor who prescribed the medicine for Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Sun's personal maid. From the conversation between the two, it turned out that when Mrs. Sun left Xijing, she had already died.

"Our wife loves flowers like life since she was a child, and she is gentle and kind. After marrying my uncle, the relationship between the two has become deeper and deeper. When my wife is sick, my uncle often accompanies her and takes care of her medicine. They should have raised their eyebrows together to grow old together, but The weather is not good, my wife contracted a strange disease, and I searched all the doctors in Xijing, but they couldn't cure it. That night, my wife was unconscious for three days, my uncle was very anxious, and found the most famous Doctor Du in the city, but Dr. Du When it arrived, Madam was already exhaling more and taking in less, and after a while, Madam had already—”

"My uncle seemed to be insane at the time, and drove everyone out of the house, leaving only Dr. Du alone. After a while, we heard Dr. Du yelling that his wife had come back to life. But after that night, I I never saw my wife again, before my uncle took his wife to leave Xijing, he specially called me over, saying that he was going to take his wife to leave Xijing, and he would come back after recovering from illness, and asked me to go home and wait for their good news."

The above words were said by the maid when Huangfu Nan saw Mrs. Sun's maid, when she was moved with emotion and reasoned, when she was about to run out of patience and ran out of saliva.

Is the matter as simple and simple as the maid said? Huangfu Nan has no time to ask for proof, so he hurried back to the government office with Wu Hao, and happened to meet Zhan Zhao who had met Dr. Du, and the two shared the news they had received After summarizing it, it became clear in my mind at once——Sun Lingqun was probably the murderer of the young children in Kaifeng City.

The two of them bid farewell to Gu Minzhi of Xijing Prefecture immediately, and hurried back to Kaifeng.

When they rushed back to Kaifeng mansion, it was Dynasty Mahan who was on duty. The two were patrolling outside Kaifeng mansion.

"Guard Zhan, Huangfu, what are you—"

Zhan Zhao got off his horse, threw the rein in his hand at Ma Han, and said, "There is a clue."

Ma Han caught the rein, but still didn't react.

Huangfu Nan, who had already dismounted from the horse at this time, said with a smile: "Brother Ma Han, in the case of the murder of a child, we may be able to catch the murderer soon."

When Wang Chao heard the words, his expression was overjoyed, "Huangfu, what's the good news."

"No hurry, let me and the Zhan guard sort out the clues in our hands, and we can decide when my brother-in-law comes tomorrow." She paused, "Is Gongsun on duty tonight?"

Dynasty: "Not here."

Ma Han leaned over, "Why don't I go and call Mr. Gongsun?"

Huangfu Nan didn't refuse, but nodded, "Alright, please trouble Brother Ma Han."

Zhan Zhao turned his head and couldn't help but glance at Huangfu Nan, who happened to meet Huangfu Nan's gaze. Huangfu Nan met his gaze, not only did not avoid it, but showed him a gentle smile.

Zhan Zhao: "..."

Wang Chao didn't notice the difference between the two, and told them: "My lord has already guessed that you may travel overnight in the past two days, and there are snacks and hot tea in the house at night. I will go to patrol first, and you go in and drink some." A hot tea mat to cushion your stomach."

Zhan Zhao came back to his senses, smiled and said, "You are busy, don't worry about us."

Dynasty nodded and continued on the tour.

Huangfu Nan walked slowly to Zhan Zhao's side, "Xiong Fei, shall we go in first?"

Zhan Zhao: "...OK."

In the dim candlelight, Huangfu Nan was sitting in front of a round table, holding hot tea in one hand, and delicately nibbling a snack in the other.

Gongsun Ce, who was being dug up in his dream, was standing in front of the densely packed paper wall, looking at a portrait in it.That portrait was made by Gongsun based on Sun Lingqun's facial features as reported by Zhan Zhao.

Holding a teacup in his hand, Zhan Zhao stood beside Gongsun Ce, "Is this what Sun Lingqun looks like?"

"As long as you remember what Dr. Du said correctly, it probably won't be much different," Gongsun Ce said.

Huangfu Nan finished eating the dim sum in his hand, looked at the portrait, a little surprised, "He looks unexpectedly good-looking."

Gongsun Ce: "...that's not the point, the point is how we can find him."

Huangfu Nan put the cup in his hand on the table, walked to the right side of Gongsun Ce, rubbed his head that was a little drowsy due to the two days of day and night, and asked: "It's been a while since the last child was killed. How long?"

Gongsun Ce was silent, with a heavy tone, "Today is the sixth day. If we still can't find the murderer today, maybe in the early morning of tomorrow, another innocent child will die in Kaifeng Mansion."
