Everlasting prosperity

"Master Chen." Rong Chizi said respectfully to Master Chen, while extending his hand in a bow.

"This old man has met Master Mu." Master Chen bowed in the same way, and replied respectfully. In a blink of an eye, he saw the two people behind Rong Chizi, and asked suspiciously, "My lord, who are these two?"

Rong Chizi glanced back at the two of them, lowered his eyes, and then raised his head with a smile on his face, and replied, "This is my friend, who is usually interested in some difficult cases, and I don't have any information for this investigation. Helper, simply bring him over, the one behind is his bodyguard. Master Chen, don't you mind?"

"That's fine, one more person means one more helper. Why would I mind, it's all up to Lord Mu to decide." Master Chen stroked his beard and said kindly.

"Thank you, Mr. Chen, for your understanding." Rong Chizi said respectfully.

Seeing that Rong Chizi had finished explaining to Master Chen, several people formally took their seats.

"I don't know these two, what should I call this old man?" Master Chen asked.

"My surname is An De, the master can call me An De." Ji Anjun replied.

"I'm Xiao Yizhi." Xiao Yizhi briefly introduced himself.

Ender?This surname is really rare. I have never heard of a large family with this surname, but there may be one in Beili. This is located in the north of Beili, a multi-ethnic unified country. Maybe there will be such a compound surname.

Rong Chizi thinks so, and there is only Beili Kingdom. When he chased and killed Yu Linze, he escaped from Fengming Mountain. Presumably, he also met Ander in Beili territory.

"Master Chen, Your Majesty sent me to investigate the case after receiving your notice. I have learned about the case along the way, but the specific ins and outs of this are not very detailed. I will thank Master Chen to explain it in detail. Tell me in detail." Rong Chizi slowly narrated his thoughts, and asked Master Chen to speak.

Master Chen took a deep breath, thought for a while, and then said, "The matter, we have to start from three years ago."

Hearing this, Ji Anjun stretched out his hand and poured tea for them, took a sip, and looked at Master Chen again.I saw soreness in his eyes, and knew in my heart that this was another bitter thing.

"Three years ago, I went on a business trip and came to Dawu. I saw a maidservant being beaten on the street, and I felt pity for her, so I bought her and kept it with me. After a long time, I fell in love with her, so I wanted to marry her as a concubine. But When I brought it home, I was repeatedly stopped by my wife, so I had no choice but to hide that girl in another mansion of mine." Master Chen said slowly, stretched out his hand to pick up the teacup, took a sip, and paused. pause.

"What happened next?" Ji Anjun asked suddenly.

Master Chen glanced at Ji Anjun, pursed his lips, and continued, "Then? A year ago, she was pregnant with my child, and I thought, since it's already done, Madam won't refuse her to join me again." In Chen's house, children always have to recognize their ancestors. Of course, it may be for this reason that she let Rushi in."

"So?" Rong Chizi was puzzled.

"The woman's name is Lin Rushi." Master Chen explained.

"It is rumored that Master Chen's wife killed Lin Rushi out of jealousy, does Master Chen also think so?" Ji Anjun stared into Master Chen's eyes and asked tentatively.

Master Chen looked at Ji Anjun's eyes, felt a coldness on his back for no reason, stretched out his hand and touched his nose embarrassingly, and replied, "Old man...I don't know..."

"I don't know? If you don't know, why are you sitting here with us? Could it be that you have doubts and chose to sue the king just now?" Ji Anjun chuckled and asked with a little contempt.

Hearing this, Master Chen raised his head suddenly as if his mind had been punctured, looked at Ji Anjun in disbelief, saw the look of contempt in his eyes, turned away in shame, stopped looking at him, closed his mouth, and didn't know how to say it again. Open your mouth.

Seeing Master Chen's embarrassed appearance, and Ji Anjun's aggressive and contemptuous eyes, Rong Chizi noticed that Master Chen's teacup was empty, and quickly reached out to fill him up again.

"Master Chen, if you don't tell me the truth, I'm afraid this case will be investigated in the Year of the Monkey." Rong Chizi held the teacup in front of Master Chen, looking at Master Chen, and said sincerely.

Mr. Chen looked at the teacup in his hand, took it with his right hand, rolled his eyes left and right, sighed, and said, "One day, Mr. Hu, one of my merchants, invited me to Tingyulou for a business meeting. Unexpectedly, Mr. Hu ransomed Miss Qingliu from the building, and was afraid that his wife would find out if she brought her back, so she hid her with me. But I drank too much that day, The next day I saw Miss Qingliu lying beside me! I really don’t know anything!"

Speaking of this, Master Chen stretched out his hand and drank the tea, with resentment and disbelief on his face, as if the situation of that day was close in front of his eyes, and what he saw that day was vivid in his mind.

"I don't know how Rushi knew about this. I only left a letter and disappeared without a trace, including my unborn child." Master Chen finished the matter as if discouraged, his eyes full of tears. It was sad, and a pair of thick eyebrows were tightly knit together.

After Rong Chizi listened, he touched his chin thoughtfully.

"But why did you suspect Madam again?" Ji Anjun asked.

"In this matter, I have to mention her maid, Xiaoxiang. Xiaoxiang was her dowry maid back then. Since Rushi disappeared, she has been sick at home. At first I thought it was some serious illness, until the day of the Cold Clothes Festival, I Only then did I know that she was suffering from madness." Master Chen frowned and explained.

"Could it be the crazy woman who came out on the cold clothes festival that was rumored a few days ago?" Ji Anjun asked.

"Exactly." Master Chen replied accurately, and then said, "I was already suspicious, and because Xiaoxiang was arrested by the government, I quietly took him out, even though he was already insane I just yelled that I didn't kill anyone, and that Lin Rushi came to take revenge, but these words really deepened my suspicion of Madam, so I hurried on and sent the letter of complaint to Jun Shang."

"So that's the case, so you suspect that it was Madam who killed Lin Rushi, and Xiaoxiang was an insider or an accomplice?" Rong Chizi nodded and sorted out the case before asking again.

"I really think so, but there is no real evidence after all. My wife and I have been married for several years. Although she is a bit jealous, she won't hurt anyone. I..." Master Chen frowned , looking rather embarrassed, with a hesitant look.

Ji Anjun looked at Master Chen with his head bowed in embarrassment, and thought in his heart that he had been married for several years, but he was merciful outside of marriage, and he had a child, even if he was ruthless with his married wife, he shouldn't hurt her like this.

Regarding marriage, Ji Anjun has learned from books since he was a child that what is written in this book is that men have three wives and four concubines, and women have three obediences and four virtues. But since he met Xiao Yizhi, he felt that the words in those books Words are all bullshit!

To love someone is to be single-minded, from one to the end.Even if they don't love each other, because they are bound together by marriage, it is also in accordance with morality, and they must not let each other down.Could it be that that kind of extramarital love betrayed both his wife and his lover?

"Jealousy always makes people commit crimes." Xiao Yizhi, who had never spoken at the side, said suddenly.

Hearing this, Master Chen looked at him in surprise.But in Rong Chizi's heart, there was something else to think about.

"So, this Xiaoxiang is a witness." Ji Anjun seemed to be talking to himself.

"Witness? But she's gone crazy." Master Chen said, with an unbelievable tone in his tone.

Even so, Xiaoxiang is indeed crazy, but you have to try everything, besides, what a crazy person says, whether it is true or not, cannot be all lies, otherwise, how could this Master Chen believe it?

"Master Chen, this bodyguard of mine is quite accomplished in medical skills, so he should give it a try." Ji Anjun glanced at Xiao Yizhi, and said to Master Chen.

When Master Chen heard the words, he looked at Xiao Yizhi in a blink of an eye, took a deep breath, and replied, "Forget it, try it."

And Xiao Yizhi who was at the side didn't say anything when he heard Ji Anjun's arrangement, he followed his words completely, with a look of obedience.Rong Chizi saw these things in his eyes, but he really couldn't think of the origin of Ander, who could make Yu Linze so obedient.

The four reached an agreement, and Master Chen called three carriages and drove towards Chen's residence.

Ever since Xiaoxiang made such a fuss on the Winter Clothes Festival, Mr. Chen has kept her in the Chen Mansion, and even invited a doctor to treat her, but there was no cause for her illness, and there was no cure for her, and Xiaoxiang was also insane every day. Whoever he met, he would go crazy and beat him, and he would babble non-stop, but he never babbled on the words he said that day during the Cold Clothes Festival.

Master Chen thought, since Mr. An De had spoken, he would give it a try. This kind of guard looks like a rich man, and this guard looks much more pleasing to the eye than those quack doctors.

After getting off the carriage, what caught Xiao Yi's eyes was a rich and luxurious mansion, which was comparable to Ji Anjun's palace in Beili.

"Everyone, please." Master Chen made a gesture and said respectfully.

Ji Anjun and Xiao Yizhi looked at each other, wondering what they were thinking, and then they walked into the Chen residence together.

The three of them followed Mr. Chen to nowhere. They turned a corner and saw a dark courtyard with weeds growing in front of the hall, and a road was stepped out in the middle. As the wind blows, there is a strong smell of medicine. From this distance, I can hear the shrill screams inside, mixed with the shouts of the maidservant, and the sound of bottles and jars breaking.

Xiao Yizhi frowned, this place is really a place where people live.

"Everyone, please be careful." Master Chen frowned slightly, apologetically.

Immediately, he led the three of them towards the dark room.

As they got closer, the uneasiness in Xiao Yizhi's heart became more and more intense, and a pair of sword eyebrows were tightly frowned.Ji Anjun, who was walking beside him, caught a glimpse of Xiao Yizhi's expression, and quietly reached out to touch his hand to express comfort.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

As soon as they entered the room, sharp and piercing sounds came to everyone's ears.

Rong Chizi quickly raised his hands to cover his ears, while Master Chen was so startled that he quickly supported the door frame to stabilize his figure.

And Xiao Yizhi rushed towards the source of the sharp sound, but Ji Anjun stood there, motionless, frowning tightly, watching everything in the chaotic room.

I saw a woman dressed in tatters, her hair was loose, her hands were waving wildly in the air, and the two maids beside her were pulling her one by one, preventing her from escaping from the room.

Perhaps the woman was crazy, writhing wildly like desperately, broke free with one hand, frantically beat the maid who was clamping her, stretched out her foot and kept kicking, mouth kept yelling Make strange noises.

The voice sounded extremely ear-piercing, it no longer seemed like a human voice, but rather the voice of a beast or monster.

When Xiao Yizhi rushed towards the woman, the woman also saw him, her eyes were full of resentment and madness, as if seeing a new prey, she tried her best to shake off the maid who was clamping her, and suddenly she was like a tiger or leopard. Generally speaking, he rushed towards Xiao Yizhi with five claws outstretched, as if to tear him to pieces.

Seeing the woman rushing towards him, Xiao Yizhi dodges quickly, flipping over in the air, and at the moment when the woman couldn't see who was coming, he slashed at the back of the woman's neck with his hand.

Immediately, the woman was limp on the ground.

"What's going on here?" Master Chen suddenly asked angrily.

Seeing that the woman had been subdued, the maid hurriedly knelt down to Master Chen.

"Master, this little Xiang is dumb." said one of the maids.

"What did you say?" Master Chen said in shock, staring at the maid with wide eyes.

Hearing this, Xiao Yizhi suddenly looked at Ji Anjun, looking for something in his eyes, but the latter didn't express anything.

"Master, the day before yesterday, for some unknown reason, Xiao Xiang suddenly vomited blood, and then became even more insane. We also went to the doctor, and only then did we find out that she is dumb." The maid quickly explained.

"Why didn't you inform me?" Master Chen asked forcefully.

"Slave... Slave is thinking..." The maid faltered, and occasionally glanced at Master Chen secretly, but she really didn't dare to speak.

Seeing her faltering, Master Chen blushed angrily, impatient to ask any more questions, and cursed angrily, "Get out!"

"The slaves retire!"

The two maids ran away like crazy, as if they had met the King of Hades.

And Xiao Yizhi looked at Ji Anjun, waiting for his words.

"Go and have a look." Ji Anjun was finally defeated by his eyes, and said.

Hearing this, Xiao Yizhi jumped out, picked up the woman from the ground with one hand, and carried her to the bed.Then, he stood up and walked around the room, holding a chopstick in his hand, and walked towards the woman.He stretched out his hand to pry open the woman's mouth, gently inserted the chopsticks in, and looked closely.

He took the chopsticks away again, stretched out his hands to grab the woman's eyelids, and checked his wrist for pulse.

Then he turned his head to look at Ji Anjun, frowned slightly, and shook his head.

"Young master, what do you mean by shaking your head?" Master Chen asked.

Hearing this, Ji Anjun nodded slightly to Xiao Yizhi, and when Xiao Yizhi saw it, he slightly lowered his eyes to show his understanding.

"Master Chen, Xiaoxiang's throat must have been drugged and made hoarse. I can only cure her of the remaining poison, but the voice can only recover to [-]% at most. Master Chen, do you need treatment? "Xiao Yizhi explained in this way, and then asked Master Chen for advice.

Master Chen looked at Xiaoxiang who had passed out on the bed, frowned, sighed discouragedly, waved his sleeves, and said, "Help me, I didn't take good care of her."

"Okay, please ask Mr. Chen to bring the Chinese medicine box at home." Xiao Yizhi replied.

It didn't take a stick of incense for Xiao Yizhi to get the medical needle, sitting cross-legged behind Xiaoxiang, with his palm facing her back, and after a week of luck, he slowly sent the air into Xiaoxiang's back, and in her body Running, activating the blood vessels, forcing the poison to one place.

Seeing that Ji Anjun was of good blood, he quickly picked up a knife as thin as a cicada's wing, lit a candle, and roasted it back and forth on the fire before handing the knife to Xiao Yizhi.

I saw Xiao Yizhi took the knife, and quickly cut a hole in Xiaoxiang's wrist. In an instant, black blood gushed out from the wound.

Xiao Yizhi withdrew his breath, stretched out his hand to take Xiaoxiang, and moved his hand down from his arm to his wrist, forcing out the poisonous blood until the blood that flowed out was dark red.

Seeing this, Ji Anjun on the side took out the medicine jars from the medical box and smelled them one by one, finally confirmed one jar, and handed it to Xiao Yizhi, and took another piece of gauze. Gently bandage the wound tightly.

"Master Chen, the remaining poison is cleared up, just wait and prescribe a prescription for Xiaoxiang's throat." Xiao Yizhi said to Master Chen.

"Thank you, son." Master Chen arched his hands towards Xiao Yizhi, and replied respectfully.

Immediately, he turned around and turned around in the room, picked up a pen and ink in a corner, and began to write on the scattered paper.

At this moment, a woman in a silky dress stood outside the door, staring intently at the room.

Xiao Yizhi, who was writing something with his head down, suddenly felt a gaze scanning the room, and quickly raised his head to look outside the door, but when he looked up, he saw nothing.

Probably overthinking it.

As Xiao Yizhi thought about it, he lowered his head and began to write again.

But at this moment, Ji Anjun looked at the room carefully, it was in a mess, calligraphy and painting books were piled up in the corner, and there was a pile of dirty shoes on the left side of the entrance, presumably it wasn't Xiaoxiang's previous residence.

"Master Chen, this place is not Xiaoxiang's residence." Ji Anjun asked.

"Yes, in the previous house, Xiaoxiang always said that it was haunted, so people sealed it up. It used to be a miscellaneous room. After tidying up, she lived in it." Master Chen replied.

"So that's the case. Xiaoxiang is like this now, I'm afraid I won't be able to learn anything from her. In this case, I will take my leave first, let me take a rest, and by the way, I will discuss this matter carefully. If I think of anything, I will inform Mr. Mu With Master Chen." Ji Anjun said suddenly, the thoughts in his mind were about to burst out of his body, and he had to leave here quickly.

Some things can only be done with Yizhi.

"Since Mr. An De said so, I will go back and think about it again." Rong Chizi said the same.

Seeing that both of them wanted to leave, Mr. Chen couldn't stop them, so he replied, "Then I'll see you off."

"Yizhi! Let's go!" Ji Anjun yelled when he saw Xiao Yizhi who had written the medicinal materials and was tidying up.

Xiao Yizhi looked up at Ji Anjun, nodded in understanding, then handed the paper with the medicinal materials to Master Chen, and stood behind Ji Anjun again.

Things have come to this point, so we have to find another way.
