Chapter 12 The case of killing people with paper [4]
Cui Xiaoyi inspected all the paper shops in the city and found no records of large quantities of paper shops being sold. But I heard some shocking news.
——The entire Li family escort agency was not wiped out, but one person survived!
The leaden sky was covered with dark clouds, and goose-feather-like snow fell one after another.
Qu Baiyu waited patiently for Yuan Tong'er to finish eating, then sent her back to the county prince's mansion before heading to Fan's Village on the outskirts of Beijing.
Seeing that he didn't get off the carriage, Yuan Tong'er turned back and stood under the carriage window in the wind and snow and asked, "Isn't your highness coming back?"
Qu Baiyu opened the curtain and frowned when he saw her holding the snow like this, "Go back quickly, I'll go have a look outside the city. I'll come back as soon as I go."
Yuan Tong'er shook his head. There was no point in going back so early. It was better to follow him for a stroll.
"I want to go too."
Qu Baiyu was silent for a moment, then nodded and asked her to get in the car quickly. He told the others: "Let Xu Hui find a fur cloak."
He paused and then ordered another person: "Go to the warehouse and have a look. If there is a hand stove, look for one that is light and handy."
When she turned around, she saw that Yuan Tong'er had already gotten on the bus and sat back down next to the low seat where she originally sat.
"Come here."
Qu Baiyu patted the soft couch beside him and said, seemingly casually.
Yuan Tong'er replied: "No, it's just fine here!"
Qu Baiyu paused, and his expression suddenly turned cold, "It's up to you."
Yuan Tong'er pursed her lips, how could this person change his face so quickly?
After the fur cloak and hand stove were delivered, the carriage staggered out of the city.
Fanjiazhuang was some distance away from Shangjing City, and by the time they arrived, it was already completely dark.
Cui Xiaoyi said that the only person left in the Li family bodyguard agency was Li Xinu, the only child of the head of the Li family and the eldest daughter of the Li family.
Because he was married and had an estranged relationship with his natal family, he escaped this disaster.
And she married Fan Shian from Fanjiazhuang.
Parking the car on the small road in front of Fanjiazhuang, Cui Xiaoyi looked for a house and asked about it. Only Yuan Tong'er and Qu Baiyu were left in the car.
Qu Baiyu still had a straight face, as indifferent as a jade-carved ice lump.
But to say that he was extremely emotional didn't seem to be the case. He was obviously angry but suppressed it for fear of being discovered. It is the kind of indifference that is neither slow nor slow, quiet and distant.
In the end, it was Yuan Tong'er who couldn't hold back and spoke first.
"Your Highness...is there something on your mind?"
Qu Baiyu turned his head when he heard the words, and the snowy light outside the window reflected the small half of his face, as bright as the moon.
"Speak up and you can help me?"
Yuan Tong'er was flustered by his question. She always felt that if she talked to him, she would lose everything with one careless move, so she said cautiously: "Let's talk and listen. If I can help, I will naturally help."
Light and shadow intertwined, and there was finally a smile on Qu Baiyu's delicate face.
"Then sit over here and I'll tell you."
The wind blew through the car curtains, and light suddenly squeezed in, reflecting his long and thick eyelashes. Half of his face was soaked in the snowy night, as if it were flawless.
His words were gentle and gentle, but there was still an invisible sense of oppression that made people dare not resist.
Yuan Tong'er gritted his teeth. This was the second time he let her pass. If she didn't pass, he didn't know if she would be thrown out.
"*!"
Cui Xiaoyi's shouting and cursing suddenly came from outside the car.
It turned out that when every household heard that Cui Xiaoyi was asking about Fan Shi'an, they all closed their doors and disappeared with unlucky looks.
Yuan Tong'er waved and called Brother Xiao Yi, and after whispering a few words to him, Cui Xiaoyi changed his appearance and knocked on the door again.
Qu Baiyu asked curiously what she said.
Yuan Tong'er said: "Having money can bring trouble to the world. What's the taboo? The biggest taboo of the poor is having no money!"
Qu Baiyu seemed a little confused.
"Since it is a taboo, it is either a deep grudge or a taboo in customs and habits. If you change it just for some money, you are really a philistine!"
Yuan Tong'er glanced at him. She was not surprised that this prince who wore gold and silver and didn't know the sufferings of the people could say such a thing.
"That's how people are. The less they have, the more they care about something. Nothing is too marketable or unrealistic! The money you don't care about is enough to survive for them."
As soon as she finished speaking, Cui Xiaoyi ran back with a smile on her face.
"Sir, I asked around. It's behind Zhuangzi. It's a bit far away. Their family lives alone."
Qu Baiyu said nothing and only glanced at Yuan Tong'er.
The road behind Zhuangzi is much narrower, and a few people can only walk.
The snow fell on the ground and laid a thick layer, making a crunching sound when you stepped on it.
Yuan Tong'er followed, one foot deep and one foot shallow, but suddenly her feet were empty and she almost fell down.
With quick eyes and quick hands, she quickly grabbed the hand of Qu Baiyu who was walking aside.
Suddenly a slightly cold little hand slipped into the warm big palm, and Qu Baiyu's heart suddenly tightened.
Yuan Tong'er shrank and took out his hand. "Excuse me……"
"Can't you even walk?"
Qu Baiyu said with great disdain, squeezed Yuan Tong'er's hand that had just been taken away and squeezed it back, dragging her forward.
The clasped hands are hidden under the wide cuffs, and the palms of the palms are tightly attached to each other.
Yuan Tong'er felt a pause in her heart, an indescribable feeling, and her slightly cold hands were warmed by Qu Baiyu's warmth soon after.
After walking for a long time, I finally found Fan Shian's home. It was just an ordinary farmhouse, and I didn't know what was taboo about it.
The wooden door was old and could not be closed tightly for a long time. As soon as Cui Xiaoyi raised his hand to knock on the door, a trace of shock flashed in his eyes. He raised his foot and kicked the wooden door open instantly.
White flags fluttered all over the courtyard, and people and horses tied with paper suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
Another murder? !
Before Yuan Tong'er could see clearly, her eyes were in a trance, and she was wrapped in Qu Baiyu's arms, blocking her view of the courtyard.
The back of her head was held by him, and Yuan Tong'er's whole body was hidden in his arms.
"Don't look!"
"...who?"
Suddenly a woman's voice came from the courtyard.
Yuan Tong'er poked her head out of Qu Baiyu's arms and saw that the courtyard was brightly lit. A thin woman was holding a fat man standing in the courtyard and looking out.
Cui Xiaoyi raised his eyebrows, "Are you Li Xinu? The eldest lady of the Li family?"
There was a hint of timidity in the middle-aged village woman's delicate eyes, and she nodded in confusion.
Cui Xiaoyi pointed to the paper-stuck people all over the yard and continued to ask: "This is..."
Li Xinyv said honestly: "My husband-in-law did it..."
Cui Xiaoyi raised his eyebrows slightly. It turned out that this was something they were taboo about.
"I'm afraid you have to go back with us!"
Cui Xiaoyi sent Li Xinu and Fan Shian to prison, while Qu Baiyu took Yuan Tong'er back to the county prince's mansion.
Xu Hui had already prepared a guest room for Yuan Tong'er. Qu Baiyu sent her to the door but did not leave.
"Your Highness, won't you go back?"
Yuan Tong'er said strangely.
Qu Baiyu: "You said today that if a person lacks something, what will he care about? I want to ask, what do you lack?"
Yuan Tong'er smiled, "Your Highness, you want to reward me with something?"
Qu Baiyu was noncommittal.
Yuan Tong'er thought about it and realized that she lacked a lot of things, but she also knew that no merit would be rewarded and people would be short-handed, so she shook her head.
"I don't have anything I want. If I have to say something...right now, I'm sleep deprived!"
The air seemed to become a little quieter for a moment. Qu Baiyu rolled his eyes unnoticeably and turned around to leave: "Go to sleep."
Yuan Tong'er was speechless. It was obvious that he had asked someone to say it, and he would be unhappy after saying it. Ignoring him, he closed the door.
Qu Baiyu stopped after taking only a few steps.
The candlelight on the corridor outside the guest room cast his figure on the door and window, and his outline was extremely clear, clean, and eye-catching.
"Yuan Tong'er, if you think of anything missing, you must tell me."
