[Complete] The world is a mess

Chapter 37 The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng

The next day.

Just after breakfast, an official came to look for Baili Shangchuan.

"But Baili Shangchuan?"

The officer knew that the luthiers selected by the music workshop were all dedicated to the emperor. Even so, it was still a matter of whether this person could win the holy will and win the holy heart, so when he saw Baili Shangchuan, his attitude It's not bad, but it's not trying to please. Seeing Baili Shang nod, he handed the post in his hand to Baili Shangchuan, "Go to Lefang before noon today."

"Thank you."

After Baili Shangchuan handed over his hands, he "taken" a purse from his arms and handed it to the official. The action was smooth and personable, and it didn't make people think that bribing the official was a bad thing.

Seeing this, the official was not polite, he reached out to take the purse and touched it, the smile on his face could not be hidden, "Since Mr. Baili is so sincere, then I will remind Mr. Baili that as long as Mr. Liu If you like it, then the matter of entering the palace will be [-]% easier."

"Thank you for reminding me."

Baili Shangchuan knew that the official was reminding him, so he bowed his hands and replied.

After the officer finished speaking, seeing that there was nothing to do, he took his purse and left.

It was still early at this time, and Baili Shangchuan himself had nothing to do, so he went to Lefang early. At this time, there were still few people in Lefang. Playing the piano and walking into the music hall.

As soon as you enter the gate, you will find a wide courtyard with arches on three sides. There is a big stone next to the arches, with three big characters engraved on it, dyed with red cinnabar, which is very clear.Looking at the arch one by one, Baili Shangchuan remembered that he still didn't know where to go, so he had to retreat to the officer at the door and asked, "I don't know where I'm going?"

The officer sized Le up and took a look at Baili Shangchuan. Xu felt that Baili Shangchuan was a son of a dignitary with status, so his attitude was a little respectful. Just know!"

"Thank you."

After getting the news he wanted, he bid farewell to the official and went to Songfangyuan. However, after walking a few steps, he heard someone shouting not far away, "He's dead!"

The sound was particularly piercing in this early morning, and its content was also shocking. The officer at the door left one person behind and hurried to the sound. Baili Shangchuan frowned and followed closely.

The voice came from Zhufang Courtyard. Everyone entered the courtyard and saw a young man running towards him with a face full of panic, shouting as he ran, "It's not good, Mr. Liu has an accident!"

"What's going on!" the officer grabbed the sensibil and asked anxiously.

"Master Liu, Lord Liu is dead!" The young man seemed to be recalling the scene just now, his expression was sad, and tears flowed down his face. He looked at a little helplessly, but his eyes were not focused, and he was a little dazed, "What should I do? !what do I do!"

Seeing the young man like this, the officer did not say much, just pushed him away and walked into the house.

Baili Shangchuan glanced at the young man and walked over. At this time, everyone was panicked, but no one said that his behavior was not in accordance with the rules.

As soon as I saw it, I saw a middle-aged man in an official uniform lying on the ground. The chair beside him was slightly tilted, and the underside of the chair was already stained red with bright red blood.

"It was killed by a sword!"

The official came to Mr. Liu's body, looked at his wound, frowned and said, "Hurry up and invite the head catcher from the six gates!"

"Yes!" The official who followed behind him led the way.

After a while, I saw the official came with several people, and the leader was actually someone he knew, so I had to say it was destined.

"Brother Baili, I didn't expect to meet again so soon!"

Lu Xiaofeng was still wearing his red cape, showing the dimples on his face.

"It's really fate."

Baili Shangchuan was carrying the piano on his back, with a hint of understanding in his eyes.

"Lu Xiaofeng, is this also your friend?"

At this time, Jin Jiuling who was standing next to Lu Xiaofeng looked at Baili Shangchuan in surprise and asked.

"That's right, this Baili Shangchuan is my new friend. This person can play the piano well. You are lucky, Jin Jiuling!"

Lu Xiaofeng thought of the song he heard last night, and felt very complicated emotions in his heart, he was happy, moved, sad, and sad, it was really mixed, he didn't know how to express it.

"To get a compliment from Lu Xiaofeng, I would like to listen to a song. Unfortunately, I am on business at this time, so I have to visit another day in person!"

Jin Jiuling's attitude was majestic, and his brows and eyes were full of righteousness, but Baili Shangchuan knew that he was the embroidery thief, so he was not appreciated by his external performance. He just nodded lightly and didn't say much.

Seeing this situation, Lu Xiaofeng also knew that it was not the time to reminisce, so he followed Jin Jiuling into the house.

At this time, the furnishings in the room were still the same as when they first came in. Master Liu's body was lying beside the chair, and the ground was stained red with blood.

"It's true that he was killed by a single sword. According to the wound, the sword is about two feet wide and very thin. This person must be a master of swords." Jin Jiuling looked at the "red line" on the wound and frowned. "Lu Xiaofeng, did you find anything?"

Lu Xiaofeng didn't answer, he looked at the surrounding decorations, checked Master Liu's clothes, and then asked, "Who sent the corpse?"

Although the officials didn't know who Lu Xiaofeng was, they saw that Lu Xiaofeng came with Jin Jiuling, so they thought that Lu Xiaofeng came with Jin Jiuling, so they didn't ask any questions, they just pushed the young man over.

"I want to ask you, when was the last time you saw Master Liu?"

"Last night, before sunset last night," the young man's face was pale, he was so choked up that he could hardly speak, "I, I saw that it was getting late, so I told Liu, Mr. Liu, but Mr. Liu, he, he said He still has something to do, so let me go back first."

"That is to say, after you left last night, only Master Liu is left here?"

After Lu Xiaofeng finished speaking, he turned to the officials and asked, "Which of you saw Master Liu go back last night?"

The officials heard the words, you look at me, I look at you, but no one answered.

"Could it be that Lord Liu didn't go back at all last night?" Jin Jiuling asked in surprise.

"I think it should be like this, and I also think this is not the real discovery site, it should be moved here later!"

After Lu Xiaofeng finished speaking, he pointed to the clothes on Master Liu's body and said, "There are three doubts about this matter, first, why Master Liu didn't go back last night, who did he want to see, and who is this? Is it the murderer? Second, since Mr. Liu did not go back last night, where did he rest last night? He was wearing an official uniform. This official uniform looks very neat. It is obvious that the person wearing him cherishes it very much. , so after one night it did not have a single wrinkle. Since it is so cared for, what is the matter with the ink marks under the corner of the clothes? In the end, although Mr. Liu died with a sword, but before he died, he I'm afraid it has been poisoned!"

"Poisoned?"

Jin Jiuling looked at Lu Xiaofeng in surprise, and asked, "How did you know that he was poisoned?"

"His appearance," Lu Xiaofeng explained, "his appearance should be more bloody than before, right! This is a manifestation of poisoning. This kind of poison is colorless and odorless, and it can't be found at all under normal circumstances, but they However, there is one characteristic, that is, after death, everyone's complexion is ruddy, as if in good spirits, and the other is his expression, he looks so calm, he may have been killed in a coma, so his expression It’s just so natural and peaceful.”

"There is some truth in what you say."

Jin Jiuling nodded and told the officials, "Go look elsewhere and see if you find anything!"

"Yes!"

The officials took orders and left.

Seeing everyone's actions, even Lu Xiaofeng looked around, as if to find something.

Baili Shangchuan walked out of the house, looked at the big tree outside the house, and slowly approached it. The tree grew very tall, and it was very close to the yard. Some of the luxuriant branches had reached the roof of a house, covering Part of the sunlight is blocked in the house, making the house look a little dark.Baili Shangchuan looked at the room and walked slowly over. The room was locked, and it was a bit dark inside because of insufficient sunlight.

"What are you looking at?"

Suddenly, Lu Xiaofeng appeared next to Baili Shangchuan, asking suspiciously.

"I just think this place is very interesting."

Baili Shangchuan was not at all surprised by Lu Xiaofeng's arrival, he took a step back, his tone was a bit flat.

"Interesting?" Lu Xiaofeng blinked, obviously a little confused, "What do you mean?"

"There are so many rooms, why is only this room locked? Judging by the dust on the lock, it may be old, but why is there no dust on the windows over there?"

Before Baili Shangchuan finished speaking, Lu Xiaofeng's eyes suddenly lit up. He seemed to have thought of something, walked to the window, and fiddled with the window with his hands. Within a few seconds, the window was opened by him. Taking a look inside, there was an obvious smile on his face, "I'm afraid this is the real crime scene!"

After Lu Xiaofeng finished speaking, he was so busy that he jumped in. Baili Shangchuan took a look, but he didn't have the slightest intention to jump in with Lu Xiaofeng.

"I found it!"

Suddenly, Lu Xiaofeng's voice came from inside, his tone was full of surprise, and he knew without looking that he must have found some important clue, "I know why the murderer wanted to kill Master Liu!"

Lu Xiaofeng's words attracted Jin Jiuling, who was looking for clues everywhere, and he watched Lu Xiaofeng jump out of a window, and asked in surprise, "Lu Xiaofeng, did you find anything!"

"That's right, I'm afraid I've already guessed who the murderer is and why he killed Lord Liu!"
