On the way back to Jincheng early the next morning, Ling Muhan stared at me uncharacteristically after getting in the car. At first I didn't care, but later I found that her eyes stayed on me all the time.Staring at me made me uncomfortable, and I couldn't help it anymore. I asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with the princess? Why do you keep staring at me?" Ling Muhan seemed to be hesitant when he heard this, but he finally said: "Qing'er, Come sit down."

I didn't feel anything wrong and replied: "Okay." I got up slightly and sat down.As soon as I sat down, Ling Muhan came over, I looked at her suspiciously, before she could speak, she lay on my lap.

"Uh, princess, you..."

"Qing'er, let Ben Gong lie down." Ling Muhan said softly.

Looking at Ling Muhan's clean side face, he felt a little hot on his face, and his heart beat faster.I can't help but despise myself: I'm really worthless, as for it!Isn't he just lying on your lap? It's not about you!Seeing Ling Muhan fell asleep after a while, his heart slowly calmed down.I don't know what's waiting for me in Jincheng......

-------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------

"For villains, please refer to Princess and Master Shangshu."

As soon as I got out of the car, I was welcomed into the Jincheng government office by a man in his forties. The man looked very distinctive, especially the mole at the corner of his left eye that impressed me deeply, but this man didn't wear any official uniform, so he Who is it?After walking to the lobby, he asked, "Who are you?"

The man bowed and replied respectfully: "The villain is Chen Zhong, the master of the prefect of Yang."

"Then you should be very familiar with Yang Zhifu, right? Did Yang Zhifu have any abnormal behavior before he died?" After knowing the identity of this man, he knew it.

"The villain doesn't think there is any abnormal behavior." Chen Zhong looked straight at me.I was shocked: this master is not simple, the reaction is a bit too common: "Then take me to the place where the prefect Yang died."

Thinking of Ling Muhan, I turned to look at her, drinking tea with my head down: "Princess, you go back first, I'll be back in a while."

"No!" Ling Muhan raised his head and said firmly.Although she was very persistent, I still noticed the tiredness in her eyes. She must be very tired after a day of traveling.I stepped forward to hold her hand: "Princess, you go back and rest first. I will go back in a while, don't worry. If you don't go back, I will feel bad." I moved naturally, and seeing that there was nothing unusual about her expression, I begged in a low voice: "Good princess, go back quickly."

In the end, Ling Muhan's insistence was no match for my begging. Before getting into the car, she seemed a little flushed on her face.Watching the carriage leave, he turned and said to Chen Zhong behind him, "Master Chen, please lead the way."

"Is this it?" I asked looking at a room in front of me.

"Yes, this is Master Yang's study."

"Understood, please trouble Master Chen, wait for me at the door, I will go in by myself." After giving the order, he walked into the study.

The room is very simple, a sandalwood desk with empty corners, several brushes of different thicknesses hanging on the pen holder, the ink in the inkstone has dried up, it seems that it has been a few days.There is an unfinished landscape painting on the rice paper, but the end of the mountain outline has slipped upwards.

It shouldn't be, from the decoration of the study, it can be seen that this prefect Yang is a serious and cautious person.Plus there are so many books on the desk, it is certain that he is also a literati.This painting would not have gone wrong so carelessly, unless, unless it was a mental instability, or some kind of mental blow!With a conclusion in my mind, I hurried out: "Master Chen, has anyone else entered this room after the incident?"

After thinking about it, Chen Zhong replied: "I went out of the office and saw a servant go in, and there is no one else."

"Well, let someone seal this room, and no one can enter without my permission!"

Chen Zhong asked me with a solemn expression and asked in a low voice: "What did you find out, my lord?"

Looking at Chen Zhong's face, a gleam flashed in his eyes, pretending not to see it: "I didn't find anything for now, I don't want others to destroy the scene." After listening to my answer, Chen Zhong's expression returned to normal.My eyes turned cold: "Take me to see Master Yang's body, and I will also find you Zuo Zuo!"

"Yes." Chen Zhong ordered his servants to find Wu Zuo. Wu Zuo was an old man in his 60s and [-]s. His hair at the temples was already grey. He was dressed in a gray cloth with a few puddings, but his eyes were clear and not dirty.I bowed slightly to him: "I'm sorry, old man, I don't know what to call you."

"Your Excellency, everyone calls me Uncle Cheng." Uncle Cheng said humbly.

"Hehe, I will trouble Uncle Cheng to lead the way." I looked at Uncle Cheng with a smile, and I had an inexplicable feeling of intimacy with this old man.

——————————————————————————————————————————————

"Master Chen, wait for me outside." I deliberately put Chen Zhong outside, and Uncle Cheng and I entered the morgue.

"Uncle Cheng, what's the cause of his death?" Looking at the bluish corpse in front of him and the smell coming from him, he felt acid regurgitation in his stomach.

"Poisoning. Sorry for my lack of knowledge, I don't know what the poison is. There are some bruises on the feet and arms, which should be caused by the collision. This corpse has been parked for three days, but it doesn't rot, but it smells like corpses." It’s the first time I’ve seen the villain’s taste.”

"Poisoning? Could it be related to the poisoning if the body doesn't rot!" After hearing Uncle Wan Wan's words, I expressed my thoughts.

Uncle Cheng stroked his beard and said, "It's possible. This poison is not an ordinary poison. It should be used by people in the world."

I covered my mouth and nose and went forward to observe the corpse. There were indeed bruises on the ankles, and there were also bruises on the arms. I looked down, how did the nails become so worn?There were still some black crumbs in it.

"Uncle Cheng, give me the needle and cloth."

I picked out the debris from the nail bit by bit with a needle. I was really confused when I saw this black thing. What is it?But it can be regarded as a clue, raised his head to signal Uncle Cheng not to speak out, the old man understood my meaning and grinned at me.

When I came out of the government office, I suddenly realized that I didn't know the way, woo woo, I want to cry but have no tears!

Pulling a man on the road: "Brother, may I ask how to get to the Princess Mansion?" The man looked at me with contempt, and said in a mocking tone: "The princess is married, I think you are a scholar. Stop delusional!"

Listening to what he said made me confused: "Well, brother, I don't understand what you mean, I just want to know how to get to the princess mansion."

The man stepped forward to hold me and said in a low voice: "Don't hide it, the eldest princess is the head of the three beauties in the Ling Kingdom. Although this princess has become a relative, there are still many people like you who want to go to see her every day." See the beauty of this princess. But I advise you not to go, it's useless."

What he said aroused my interest, and I asked, "Why?"

You look pretty good.But the princess only has her son-in-law in her heart, and no one else looks down on her. "The man said with a smile.

Hearing these words, I felt warm in my heart: "The son-in-law must be very handsome! But how do you know that the princess only has a son-in-law in her heart?"

The man looked at me suspiciously: "Aren't you a local?" "Haha, no. I plan to take the imperial examination next year." I said with a smile on my face.

"Oh." After hearing my answer, the doubts on the man's face disappeared, and a smile immediately appeared on his face: "The princess mansion does not allow strangers to approach, and few people have really seen the princess and the concubine. I heard that the concubine He has no official position, nor is he a descendant of an official family, but the princess chose him, and the princess never rides in a carriage with others. Some time ago, someone saw the horse-drawn carriage with the princess. If the princess didn't have him in her heart How could this be?"

I smiled bitterly to myself: These people know one thing but don't know the other! "Hehe, thank you big brother, but it's getting late, please tell me how to get to the princess mansion!"

"Go straight ahead, and then turn left." Before leaving, he still muttered: "Another infatuated species!"

I have black lines all over my head, these people, alas.

-------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------------

"Phew, I'm so tired." I walked into the princess mansion out of breath, and walked straight, I didn't know it was so far away!Oh my God!It was already dark when we arrived at the mansion.

"Qing'er, you're back." Ling Muhan looked at me tenderly.

"Well, has the princess had dinner yet?" I looked at Ling Muhan who was sitting in the hall, she wouldn't have been waiting for me forever.

"No, I'm waiting for you to come back to eat together." As expected, Ling Muhan has been waiting for him.

"What does the princess want to eat?"

"I don't know, what would Qing'er want to eat?"

Thinking of the smell of the dead body in the morgue, I felt sick, and I muffled: "Don't eat."

"Then I won't eat it either."

"What?" I asked her in surprise.Ling Muhan said nonchalantly: "I don't have any appetite." I looked at this woman speechlessly, still playing with my temper.

Ling Muhan looked at me tenderly: "Qing'er probably doesn't have an appetite either." For some reason, looking at Ling Muhan, he remembered what the man said, "The princess only has a son-in-law in her heart." I looked away awkwardly: "Princess, I I'm tired, let's rest early."

There are so many things that I don't want to go into any further, it's very tiring.I don't know what kind of feelings Ling Muhan has for me, I can only be sure that I really like her after getting along with her these few days.But now the prefect Yang's case is still waiting for me to solve it, let's put the rest aside for now.
