Twins in Tibet

Chapter 251 Questions

Chu Tianhan and the others had no objection to Cheng Jing's proposal. After all, it was indeed too boring in the City Lord's Mansion. There was nothing to do every day, and it was only once in a while to tease the City Lord.There are still a few days before the Hundred Flowers Festival, and if they are idle, mushrooms may grow on their bodies.

However, it was too late tonight, so several people just talked for a while, and then went to bed.Although there is only one bed in the room, Chu Tianhan and Sheng Xunran's storage bags are full of things like quilts and blankets, taking them all out is enough for several people.

The next morning, Cheng Jing got up early, and slept on the floor with backaches, so she simply didn't sleep.

Putting on his clothes, he walked slowly to the door, glanced at the two guards who were standing at the door, and was about to step out of the door when he raised his legs, but he heard a bang, and two big knives collided with their backs, blocking him. in front of it.Cheng Jing raised her eyebrows, and asked slowly: "What are you doing? A few days ago, didn't the city lord say that we are his distinguished guests? Why are we going to be reduced to prisoners after two days?"

The guards glanced at each other but didn't answer, what could they say?Said that my young lady was almost killed after finishing it?Or was it found in the room next to them?If that person asks why they appear next door, what should I say?Originally, this matter was done by their own city lord. I am afraid that if they say a few words, the other party will be able to guess what the city lord is up to, and how wrong they say, so they should not say anything.

"We slept well last night. Suddenly our room changed early this morning. If the city lord wants to change rooms for us, shouldn't he say hello in advance?" Cheng Jing rubbed his chin: "Or the city lord last night? What happened in the mansion to implicate us?"

The eyes of the two guards flickered for a moment. Something really happened, and it really affected them.

Cheng Jing saw that the two guards still didn't speak, and it was not surprising. Those who can serve as guards in the City Lord's Mansion should understand some rules. Naturally, they won't say things that shouldn't be said by them.So Cheng Jing didn't waste any more words with them, and directly took out a gold medal from her arms and waved it in front of the two guards: "I want to see your city lord and ask him to come over immediately."

Even if the guard didn't know that it was a gold medal given by the emperor, he could still see the dragon painted on it. The person holding the gold medal with a dragon must not be an ordinary person, so his face immediately changed. They glanced at each other, turned around and left , and the other stays in place.After hesitating for a moment, the guard who stayed on the spot cupped his fists: "I don't know everyone's identity..."

Cheng Jing waved his hand to stop him from continuing: "Those who don't know are innocent, it's okay, you don't have to worry." After speaking, he walked into the room with his hands behind his back and strode squarely.The guard's expression changed a couple of times, but he didn't say anything, and continued to stand outside the door in an orderly manner.

Soon, the city lord ran over in a panic.Seeing Cheng Jing, panic flashed in his eyes, and he stepped forward to bow and salute: "My lord, can I show your gold medal to the lower officials?"

"My lord, please watch as you please." The prize took out the gold medal and handed it to the city lord. The city lord respectfully took it over and looked it over, then knelt down and handed the gold medal to Cheng Jing: "I don't know It's Mr. Parade Envoy, if you offend me, please look at Haihan."

"Come on, I'm not interested in talking to you about this. I knew what you meant by taking us over before, but now I'm just making it clear. You want to use us to catch the murderer. We want to see the excitement. No one will Who is in the way." In fact, it seems that I still took advantage of it, after all, I scared the city lord half to death that night.

The city lord was wiping off a cold sweat. If he had known that this group of people were the patrol envoy and his entourage, he would have had the guts to take advantage of them.Wait, the news came from the imperial capital that the Ninth Prince was a tour envoy, accompanied by two young princes, these two princes are still the precious sons of the third prince who is closest to the current emperor.

Among them, the ones whose age is close to the legend, whose looks are relatively similar, and who match the handsome and beautiful description in the rumor, should be those two people, those two people who I wanted to use when I first saw them .Well, the parade envoy is not scary, after all, he is a prince who has just returned to the imperial capital, and his influence has not yet been cultivated.However, the third prince is very scary. If he is offended, he will be only a few steps away from stepping into the coffin.

Thinking of this, the face of the city lord immediately turned green.Can I still see the sun tomorrow?

"My lord, I came here to ask you about the murder case you mentioned. It's too boring to live here these days, so I need to find something to do. You can explain this case to the museum in detail. Again." Cheng Jing didn't care about the face of the city lord, anyway, he just didn't say that he didn't plan to trouble him. If the city lord wants to scare himself, let him be more worried for a few days.

The city lord didn't know what Cheng Jing was planning, but he didn't ask the crime now, and he didn't plan to hit the gun in a foolish manner. When he heard Cheng Jing asking him, he hurriedly told him in detail what he knew .

"You said that the few who died lost their facial features?" Cheng Jing raised her eyebrows and asked after hearing the city lord's speech. What they heard at the time was that they cut their noses and gouged their eyes. Could it be that they didn't even have their mouths and eyebrows? ?

"Yes, every face seems to have been torn off, bloody." The city lord frowned, probably remembering the horrors of those who died.

"Are there any other wounds on your body?" Xun Xunran raised his eyebrows and asked, half spirits wouldn't choose such a difficult way to kill people, right?Just tearing off the skin can kill people, which is a bit too much.

"No, only the face has been torn off." The city lord took a sneaky look before replying, but he didn't forget that he seemed to have offended this beautiful and shameless young man, but judging by his current expression, It seems that there is not much intention to deal with him.

Several people pondered for a while, and Cheng Jing said, "Now, take us to see your daughter."

The city lord was startled, just about to say that his daughter was not at the house, but then he remembered that when the accident happened last night, it seemed that these people were next door, and they couldn't even find an excuse, but his daughter hadn't left the cabinet yet, so some men saw It's not a problem to see and go, but I can't refuse. The tour envoy also said that it is for investigation. Could he prevent them from investigating the case?He hesitated for a moment with an uneasy face, then stood up and gave way: "My lord, please."

Cheng Jing and the others pretended not to see the ugly face of the city lord, and walked out behind him.The city lord's daughter was moved to another place by the city lord after the doctor's diagnosis last night. It was not very close to Cheng Jing's yard. Of course, the city lord's mansion was not as big as the palace, so it was not very far away.

When the city lord arrived, the young lady had just finished drinking the medicine. The maid put the medicine bowl aside, and when she looked up, she saw her master standing outside the door with a few strange men. She was surprised and just wanted to remind her master that this is the young lady's In the boudoir, the housekeeper, her master, let her go down with a wave of his hand.

"Xin'er, are you feeling better?" The city lord walked in first, dragged a stool and sat in front of her daughter's window and asked gently.After all, the daughter of the city lord is quite knowledgeable. When she saw a strange man enter her room, her expression changed a little, then she calmed down and nodded with a slight smile: "Daddy, I'm much better now. I don't know who these are?"

The city lord looked at the back, Cheng Jing and the others had already sat down on their own, speechless for a while, the city lord turned his head and introduced: "These are the tour envoys and His Royal Highness Xiao Shizi, they want to know about the murder case, I heard that you were attacked yesterday, so I wanted to come over and ask about the situation."

The daughter of the city lord nodded, and then smiled at Cheng Jing and the others: "The little girl has seen the parade envoy and the two princes, the little girl is not feeling well, and it is inconvenient to salute. I hope you can forgive me."

"It's okay, we just ask a few simple questions, and you can answer them lying down." Cheng Jing said casually, and the next few questions were indeed very casual.What happened last night, in fact, he and Chu Tianhan and the others saw more than the city lord’s daughter knew, and today’s visit was just a formality, and it also provided some cover for Sheng Xunran and Chu Tianhan, so The question is not so difficult to answer.

"Cousin, I'm hungry." After Cheng Jing asked a few questions, Xing Xunran suddenly yawned next to him and said that they haven't eaten since morning, and it's almost noon, if they don't eat, he There is no strength to do it in the afternoon.

As soon as the city lord heard Xun Xunran say this, he immediately stretched out his hand and scratched his head: "I was negligent, and I forgot that my lord and your two highnesses haven't eaten yet, my lord, otherwise we go to eat first, what's the problem?" Come back in the afternoon to inquire?"

Cheng Jing shook her head: "There's no need to ask, there's nothing else to ask. Let's go eat first." After speaking, she stood up and walked out the door, and Sheng Xunran and Chu Tianhan followed hand in hand.All eight of the hula-la people left the boudoir of the city lord's daughter.

The city lord originally planned to invite them to have dinner in the living room. After all, it was already very bad for him not to receive the parade envoy. Now that he didn't even have a welcome banquet, it was really too shabby.And he just offended these nobles, if he doesn't show any performance, he will definitely not be able to eat or sleep in the next few days.It's better to hold a banquet and find out the attitudes of these people.But Cheng Jing refused, and he was still thinking about that case.

The city lord made persistent efforts to invite, but Cheng Jing just wanted to continue to refuse, Chu Tianhan said from the side: "Cousin, it's hard for the city lord to think about it, let's go to the front for dinner."

Hearing Chu Tianhan's promise, the city lord hurriedly echoed: "My lord, this official has his own heart, and I hope that my lord will give this official some face."

Since Chu Tianhan had already agreed, he had no excuse to refuse. Cheng Jing nodded, and several of them went to the living room for dinner.
