fairy dust

"It must not be me. I was responsible for the opening song of Wutong Building yesterday. I have been preparing in the building since the afternoon. When the door opened, another person knew the music I played, so please come upstairs to play the piano and taste the coffee table. Until dawn."

Chen Dingru called Lu Nianwei the dead again, Nan Qing really felt the blood surge up, and wanted to rush up and slap his mouth.But she still answered Chen Dingru's question very cooperatively.After all, she also wanted to provide some useful clues to Lu Nianwei's case, so that these stupid officials always regarded her as the murderer, but let the real murderer go free.

Also, Nan Qing knew something about the feud between the prefect Chen and the Lu family, and she knew that the prefect Chen might not be able to truly contribute to Lu Nianwei's affairs, so she was actually ready to investigate in private.

"So, the two maids of Lu's family stepped forward to confront each other." Chen Zhifu slapped the two maids on the gavel in front of the Dao hall, and said: "You two, take a closer look, the one who enjoyed the moon with your lady last night, But this person!"

The two girls really wanted to see Nan Qing. After all, when Nan Qing came in the past, the lady would reward them with some time and money, and let them go shopping by themselves.But now, Nanqing turned into the murderer who murdered Miss, they couldn't help panicking, glanced at it hastily, and said, "Report to the prefect, it's her, it's her."

Nan Qing was puzzled, she clearly did not go out yesterday, why the two maids were so determined, but seeing that the two maids were flustered, but did not appear to be lying, she became even more suspicious.So he asked: "You said it was me and your lady admiring the moon? Then... will anyone else board the ship again after that?"

When Chen Dingru saw Nan Qing's words, Ying Zhu, Lu Qiyuan, and Lu Peng all showed concern, and asked, "You two, answer truthfully. After Nan Qing boards the ship, will someone else come again?"

"Reporting to Master Zhifu, we... don't know..." The little maid was sobbing, telling the truth.

"Don't know? Why don't you know?" Prefect Chen asked again.

"Because the lady rewarded us with some silver taels, saying that after Miss Nanqing comes, we can go to Zhuangyuan Lane to buy some rouge and gouache, and we will pick her up in the morning." A maid replied.

"Yes yes yes, then, then we put down the boat and went ashore." Another echoed.

"Lu Nianwei asked you to leave?!" Hearing such an answer, Chen Dingru was a little surprised.If the little girl said that Nan Qing bribed them to get off the boat with money, he could immediately convict her without giving Nan Qing a chance to defend herself.

"Well, it was made by the miss..." Speaking of this, Xiao Huan couldn't help crying when she thought of Lu Nianwei's sweet and shy smile at that time.If Miss hadn't let them disembark at that time, maybe there wouldn't be such a result today.

The little servant girl didn't get any favorable evidence, so Chen Dingru turned his attention back to Nanqing again, "You said you were not on the boat last night, now I have not only witnesses from the servant girl of the Lu family, but also physical evidence to prove that you are on the boat!"

"Physical evidence?" Nan Qing didn't know what physical evidence Chen Dingru was talking about.

"Submit it!" Chen Dingru was delighted when he saw Nan Qing's surprise.

The yamen servant got an order to send a wooden tray to Chen Dingru's case.Chen Dingru waved his hand and said: "Announcement." So the yamen servant held the wooden plate in both hands to show off to the public, and finally stopped in front of Nanqing.

With a faint scent of cinnamon, Nan Qing took a closer look, and there was an exquisite sachet lying quietly on the wooden tray, with the graceful Chinese character "Qing" embroidered on it.

"This..." Nanqing had never seen this sachet before, but she understood something instantly.

"Hmph! The deceased Lu Nianwei was holding this sachet tightly in her hand! If you hadn't harmed her, why would she have taken it away and held it in her hand when she was dying!"

"This is not my... sachet..." Nan Qing murmured dejectedly, pale rather than justifying.

"It's not yours?! You don't know the word "Qing" when you are an official! It seems that you don't need to be serious, you are not willing to confess truthfully! Someone..." Chen Dingru took out four black-headed sticks from the stick , Said: "The suspect Nanqing is stubborn and cunning, and he will be punished for twenty, and then interrogated!"

"grown ups……"

Chen Dingru was about to cast the lottery when Zhao Buzhu approached him at some point, his expression flustered, and he whispered in his ear, Chen Dingru was dumbfounded, and his hand holding the lottery was hanging in the air.

"There is such a thing..." Chen Dingru showed a puzzled and disappointed expression after hearing this.

Not knowing exactly what Zhao Buzhu said, Chen Dingru glanced contemptuously at the hall, straightened his expression, and solemnly announced: "In the case of Lu Nianwei's murder, due to insufficient evidence, the suspect Nanqing cannot be convicted immediately, and Zhao Buzhu, the arresting head of the government office, is ordered to send more Manpower, speed up the collection of relevant evidence. As for the suspected murderer, Nan Qing, although he cannot be proven guilty, it is difficult to clear the suspicion.

"Yes." Zhao Buzhu got the order, but he couldn't be happy.

"Leave the hall!" Patting the gavel, Chen Dingru threw down Lu Qiyuan, who was yelling at him, and walked away.

tonight.Ying Zhu smirked at Nanqing, and left the magistrate hall with the dispersed crowd.

Nan Qing probably understood that Ying Zhu should come back tonight to snatch her from prison.So she didn't care much about why Chen Dingru didn't torture her suddenly, she just had to wait for Ying Zhu to come in the middle of the night and get away from this right and wrong.

Besides, compared to her so-called prison disaster, she cared more about who killed Lu Nianwei, why those two girls said she was also on the boat, and that sachet with the word "Qing" embroidered on it...

In a daze, I don't know how long it took, Zhao Buzhu brought a few yamen servants to the prison door, and hummed to the jailer, "Open it."

Nan Qing subconsciously took a few steps back, then returned to normal, and asked, "Zhao Buzhu! What do you want?!"

"What? You don't have to worry, little girl. Didn't I tell you that I would treat you to prison meals? I'll bring you meals here." After the prison door opened, Zhao Buzhu took the food box from the yamen servant and walked slowly. After entering, he casually signaled the yamen guards to lock the prison door. After all, after the riot in the Wutong Building in the morning, he also knew that Nanqing still knew how to use fists and kicks. Going out, he can't explain to the magistrate.

Nan Qing saw the small portrait of Zhao Buzhu triumphantly entering the cell, and couldn't help feeling disgusted, and sarcastically said: "I see that the chief arrester is faltering, but the pain of falling down the stairs this morning has not yet gone away?"

"Hey! You damn girl! You're not honest when you're about to die!" Zhao Buzhu threw the food box to the ground, but the food box was empty and there was no food.

"It's food delivery, where's the food?" Nan Qing felt suspicious, and couldn't help but be more wary.

Zhao Buzhu's eyes showed a fierce look, and he said angrily, "Do you really think I'm here to bring you food? Sir, I'm here to send you on your way!"

Upon hearing this, Nan Qing questioned loudly: "I have never pleaded guilty, have no confession, and no evidence. How dare you kill me in private!"

"Killing you, that's cheap for you!" Zhao Buzhu smiled sinisterly: "Let me tell you the truth! Lu Kun, the eldest son of the Lu family, caught our master's brother-in-law three years ago and sent him to a place of bitter cold Hard labor, his brother-in-law came from a noble family, how could he have endured such hardships, and ended up dying in a foreign land."

"Ha!" Nan Qing heard this story from Lu Nianwei, so she imitated Lu Nianwei's tone and sneered: "That's because he violated the law and discipline, and he has to blame himself!"

Zhao Buzhu said disapprovingly, "It's just that he took a few acres of land and killed a commoner by mistake. The money was paid and the fields were returned, but Lu Kun still held on to him. In order to save his brother-in-law, our master condescended to ask Lu Kun Kun is tolerant and free, as long as he doesn’t get married, he will definitely supervise his brother-in-law to reform himself, and he also promised that the Lu family will take care of each other if they need it. Who knows that Lu Kun doesn’t know how to flatter, so he read our master’s book in front of the Holy One, So tired that our lord was relegated from the foot of the emperor to Sunan!"

"Bah, it's clear that Chen Dingru bribed the officials and transferred him to Sunan!" Nan Qing clenched her fists.

When Zhao Buzhu heard this, he laughed wildly and said: "Hahaha, you are indeed the friend of the dead Lu Nianwei, who even knows how our master came to Sunan? It's a pity that the Lu family doesn't recognize you, a brothel girl, and begs me Give you some bitterness to eat."

Nan Qing listened, but did not speak.What Zhao Buzhu said was correct, the Lu family's son is the imperial envoy, although his rank is not high, he has the power to inspect all officials, and he is upright, which is the pride of the Lu family.The second son, Lu Peng, and his father, Lu Qiyuan, have been dealing in medicinal materials all year round, and together with Li Tianju, a genius doctor in southern Jiangsu, and his son Li Cun, they have saved many living beings in southern Jiangsu and are deeply respected by people in southern Jiangsu.

So when Lu Nianwei, the third miss of the Lu family, became close friends with Nan Qing from Wutonglou, Nan Qing was never formally accepted by the Lu family.Nan Qing knew this very well.Sometimes, she also persuaded Lu Nianwei, saying that they have different ways and should not conspire with each other.Besides, I will leave Sunan one day, let Lu Nianwei stop insisting.

But for some reason, Lu Nianwei just didn't listen.

If Lu Nianwei had followed her wishes... Maybe there would not be the disaster of death today...

Thinking of this, Nan Qing's heart tightened, and she suddenly thought of someone for no reason.Missing her like a pair of scissors suddenly tore open the seal of her memory.Nan Qing only felt that her body became so light and hot, and a desire for blood was secretly surging.

"Nan Qing, you are different from them..." Nan Jingxuan's last words in his life were Nan Qing's persistence for thousands of years.Otherwise, she would not have been stained with the blood of innocent people.Otherwise, she would not be at the mercy of Ying Zhu.

Nan Qing thought of Feng Muli again, and thought of the towering tree full of compassion.Slowly calm myself down, calm down my thoughts, and calm down my nature.If there are three people in this world who can redeem her step by step, they are Feng Muli, Nan Jingxuan and her, Lu Nianwei.

But why, none of the people who redeemed her was spared, and all of them went to the end...

Sometimes, Nan Qing felt that her existence was simply a curse.

Without time to think more, Zhao Buzhu's annoying voice sounded again, and he smiled triumphantly: "It's true that evil comes with evil, the Lu family never dreamed that their precious daughter would be raped by their boudoir friends." He was murdered! My uncle has something unclear, and I want to ask Miss Nanqing, what good is killing Lu Nianwei to you?!"

"I didn't!" Nan Qing yelled, and then turned to whispering: "I didn't kill... Nianwei..."

Zhao Buzhu seemed to be provoking Nan Qing on purpose, and ignored Nan Qing's reaction, and just continued: "Back then, if you had let me enter the Indus Tower and have fun with those beautiful girls, now, I don't know. Uncle, I really came to visit you with delicious food and wine! But now, it's too late to say anything, Lu Nianwei's body is lying there, you can't help but deny it!"

"Who said... I was lying there..."

A soft female voice came from the dark corridor of the dungeon, faint and weak.

But Zhao Buzhu and Nan Qing were shocked.
