Queen's Detective

"Who are you?" Wang Gongzi looked at the scholar who walked in, suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and said angrily: "You are with them!"

Li Yan strode in, clutching the folding fan, hands behind his back, and glanced at the prince, "Do you even need to think about it?"

The prince is angry.

The county magistrate saw that the later one seemed to have more background, and couldn't help but feel a little nervous, so when Mr. Wang yelled to arrest people, he hesitated for a while.

And it was this hesitation that saved him from the fate of being kicked away by Li Yan.

"Didn't find it?" Li Yan glanced around, "Are you sure you've found it? Don't you need to dig up the ground to have a look?"

Prince Wang pointed to the officials and guards next to him, "What are you still doing?! Didn't you hear that they were going to dig my land?"

"Who is this?" Li Yan frowned, not angry.

Aliu's father, who came in behind him, ran out of breath, and when he saw Young Master Wang, he opened his mouth to scold him, at least letting Li Yan understand the identity of this person.In other words, he actually saw it at first glance, so he just asked on purpose.

The nursing home and the officials were ready to move, the county magistrate couldn't help but take a step back, so as not to affect him, and the words he said changed, "Invite the person back to the yamen, everyone, please stay calm, this official will definitely deal with it fairly."

"Magistrate He, what do you mean by that?" Mr. Wang quit immediately, "If you don't come, I will!"

Unexpectedly, Li Yan hooked his finger at him, "Okay, come here, come here."

Of course, Prince Wang would not be so stupid as to do it himself, but he has a nursing home.

But he didn't know what was going on, he clearly saw that the man was still a few steps away, and his guards were holding sticks in their hands.But suddenly the man flew with the stick, and then he was directly kicked to the ground, with one foot on his chest.

From his point of view, the sky is still so blue, the instigator's chin is not lowered, his hands are still behind his back, and even the lowered gaze seems to be a touch of charity, "Say, where did you hide the person? "

Wang Gongzi suddenly looked up to him, and he also longed for it, one day he would be able to be so arrogant.

But now this feeling is not good, "I told you that she is not with me!"

"This king will give you one last chance."

"I, I robbed someone, but the master disappeared halfway!"

However, the magistrate He suddenly felt a little frightened from Li Yan's words - this king? !

There seems to be only one person in this dynasty who dares to call himself the king and is of the same age.

He stepped forward anxiously, "Dare to ask this... Young Master, what is your name?"

"Damn magistrate He! Didn't you see that I was trampled on?! Do you still want your official hat?"

He County Magistrate ignored him, and Li Yan even ignored him, "My surname is Li."

The word Li is enough to explain everything.When County Magistrate He heard this word, his legs went limp, and he knelt on the ground, touched the bottom of his hands, and knocked his head heavily, "I will see the prince! I don't know that the prince is here, so I ask the prince to forgive me!"

Prince?That should be the King of Luoyang!When the people around heard that it was okay, they all fell to their knees.Damn, they were thinking about taking Luoyang King back just now, but now that they think about it, they feel that there is only a piece of skin attached to the neck.

Li Yan snorted coldly, the county magistrate is also very clever, looking at the one who kowtowed just now, his forehead was probably red and swollen, and he was afraid that Li Yan would be puzzled and blame him again.

But in fact, Magistrate He felt that his performance was not enough at this moment. His forehead was knocked on the cold ground, which made him think clearly.The one in front of me is the King of Luoyang, and one of the previous two is Yan Sanbai, a Rakshasa!

This kills people without blinking an eye. County magistrate He felt a chill in his neck, and felt that his life was hanging by a thread just now.

In fact, he had seen the portrait of the King of Luoyang in the early years, but he hunted geese all day long and was pecked by a goose one day. How could he have thought that the King of Luoyang was not wearing that red dress!

What a shame!

Wang Gongzi was completely dumbfounded at the moment. After a long time, this foot was really unfair. He began to resent why he didn't pass out.

At least you don't have to lie on the ground and look at people stupidly like you are now.

Probably because of his own stupid appearance, Li Yan finally let go of him and kicked him to the nursing home, but no one dared to help him, everyone was kneeling.

Yan Sanbai stepped forward, "You said that the person disappeared? It was not yet dawn at that time, she was a girl, and she couldn't see the way, so she could escape by herself?"

"You, tell me!" Wang Gongzi got up and hurriedly pushed a person out, "He's going to snatch the person!"

Yan Sanbai turned to look at the nursing home, and the nursing home stumbled, "Hui, Mr. Hui, it's really gone! We're just the two of us, and when we walked halfway, we suddenly heard a dog barking. We were busy beating the dog. , as soon as we turned around, the person disappeared! We also wondered where she could go if she was blind, so I searched everywhere, but I couldn't find it at all. It was still dark at that time, and there was not even a ghost on the street! "

"You are lying! My girl was obviously taken away by you, so hand it over to me immediately!" Su Mei's father, Su Zhi, looked stern and overworked. A shovel came along somewhere, and with red eyes, it hit the prince's body.

Yan Sanbai quickly pulled him back, "Don't be impulsive, keep him, maybe you can find your daughter."

Su Zhi couldn't break free from Yan Sanbai's restraint, so he calmed down a little.

"If the person is really not here, maybe he was picked up by another group of people." Yan Sanbai looked at Li Yan, then turned to the magistrate He and said, "Don't say anything about our coming here. "

Magistrate He didn't dare to raise his head at all, his shoulders were trembling, and he answered again and again.

However, when Yan Sanbai and the others walked out of the gate of the palace, Li Yan ordered the solitary guard outside, "Find someone to follow the people in this mansion."

Guan Qingci grabbed the nurse who had just spoken, and the group arrived at the place where A Liu disappeared.

It was beside a river. The small bridges and flowing water in the south of the Yangtze River are always very beautiful, and there are many scenery embroidered in a small world.The river is not wide, about the length of two awning boats, and a stone bridge spans it.On the other side of the stone bridge is a wider area. During the day, there are food stalls and fortune tellers.

But at this end, the nursing home and another companion were holding Ah Liu as they passed by. Just as they were about to get on the bridge, they suddenly heard a rapid barking of a dog.

The dog barked loudly, and both of them were startled.

Yan Sanbai stood at the end of the bridge, looking forward, the corner of a house happened to cover the alley next to it, only an entrance was exposed.That's where the barking comes from.

Then the two guards saw Ah Liu's big yellow dog rushing out. The vicious dog was difficult to deal with. The two of them didn't worry about where a blind man with his hands tied could go, they just wanted to beat the dog in front of him. die, lest the matter be brought to light.

That dog was extremely difficult to deal with, with a mouth full of fangs, as if it had a transparent iron bone and was not afraid of them at all.But if it bites, it will be bad.

To make matters worse, they managed to beat the dog away, and when they looked back, the man was gone.

"Did there be any unusual noises at that time?" Yan Sanbai asked.

"No, probably not..." The nursing home was a little uncertain. At that time, the ears were full of dogs barking, so there was nothing else to care about.

It seems that something is wrong with this.

There are straight roads on both sides of the bridgehead, and there is no place to hide. No matter which side you go, you can be found by them.Unless you go back to the bridge.

but……

"Where's your accomplice? Where's the other person who kidnapped Miss Su with you?" Yan San stared at the nursing home with burning eyes, and the nursing home's expression suddenly froze.

He also found something was wrong.

"We searched separately at the time. I searched this way. He went to the other side of the bridge. Where is he, where is he now?"

"You ask us, who do we ask?" Li Yan smiled, walked up the stone steps on the side of the bridge, looked at the other side of the bridge, and then looked at the willow trees on the bank.

His eyes fell into the water, "I think I have the answer."

Jumping from the bridge to the small boat on the shore, the boat swayed slightly, Li Yan reached out to fish in the water, and picked up a corpse.

It was the nursing home.

Guan Qingci squatted down, searched carefully, "Drown."

The disappearance of 'Sumei' and the death of the nursing home suddenly made the whole thing confusing.

A group of people returned to Su Ran's house to gather. Su Ran heard about this and said: "Actually, there is another matter. The prince ordered me to investigate Su Zhi. I wanted to arrest him for interrogation at night, but it turned out I went into his room, but he was sleeping like a dead pig, I pushed him, but he didn't wake up."

"Is this... being drugged?" Ling Ding said.

Su Ran snapped her fingers, "That's right, this is the only explanation. While I was pushing him, I accidentally found this under his pillow."

Saying that, Su Ran took out something from her arms and placed it flat on the table.All eyes were fixed, this is the third invitation, Xiaomeiyuan Poetry Club.

"Does this Su Zhi really have a lot of background? The first invitation card is with Hero Yan, the second is in the hands of Master Guan, and the third is Su Zhi?"

Everyone knows that if everyone in the literary world is invited to a poetry meeting, it is impossible for an illiterate Bai Ding to appear.

But what kind of role is Su Zhi?

Yan Sanbai picked up the invitation, but shook his head, "No one said that this invitation was for Su Zhi, he was drugged, right?"

It dawned on him alone, yes, anyone could slip the invitation under Su Zhi's pillow.Thinking of this, he couldn't help looking at Guan Qingci, "Master Guan lives nearby, didn't you notice anything unusual last night?"

Guan Qingci frowned, "No, I left here last night, it was still in the middle of the night. I went to Su's house for a walk first, everything was normal, and I didn't feel anything unusual until morning."

"This is the problem." Li Yan clasped his fingers on the table, "As far as I know, there were three groups of people who went to Su's house last night. Su Ran, Lord Guan, and Wang's Nursing House, who gave it to Su Zhi?" medicine?"

Yan Sanbai added, "Also, why doesn't the dog bark?"

At first glance, this matter is very simple. Because the prince of the Wang family failed to propose a marriage, he felt resentful, so he ordered someone to kidnap him in the middle of the night, planning to cook raw rice and cook it.But in the middle of the journey, the person was robbed by another person.

But upon closer inspection, suspicion abounds.

Listening carefully alone, Yan Sanbai always noticed the points they ignored in the market.

"Brother Guan said last night that he didn't notice anything unusual. Although he was close, he could be avoided if he kept his voice low through a few walls. But what about the dog that followed Miss Su? Dogs are very sensitive. , and it is so heartfelt, since it can stop the two guards on the way, why didn't it bark at the beginning? If it barks, Brother Guan must be able to hear it."

Li Yan was responsible for asking questions, "Maybe it was drugged like Su Zhi, because the drug was not effective, so it woke up after a while, and followed the master's scent."

"The possibility of this is very small. After all, a dog is not a human being. A little medicine can bring it down. Do you remember the dog in Fusheng, Daqing Township? It just licked some residue on the ground and almost died." Yan San Bai explained: "And this one from the Su family is a very obedient and domesticated dog. When we visited yesterday afternoon, it immediately issued a warning when it saw a stranger. Miss Su petted it, and it It became very docile and never barked again. It didn’t bark a few more times until Aunt Cheng appeared. Ordinary dogs absolutely cannot do this. Its range of activities is that of Miss Su, to eat other people The possibility of giving something is very small. So..."

Li Yan continued: "So, its behavior last night has become very intriguing."

"Dogs don't have the brains of a human. It is impossible to hold back and then rob them halfway." Guan Qingci also understood Yan Sanbai's meaning, "Miss Su, she may have her own arrangements."

Why does this involve Miss Su again?Touching his nose alone, he heard Su Ran: "You try to replace all the prisoners in this matter with Miss Su?"

Replace them all with her?

Ling Ding couldn't help but think for a while, "Miss Su took medicine and put his father down, and then Wang's nursing home came, she pretended to be captured, and signaled the dog that she had been taming to be quiet. In fact, the dog followed them all the time, and then arrived At the right place, Miss Su gave orders again, the dog rushed out, and Miss Su... ran away?"

As he said that, Ling Ding was enlightened, "What about the invitation? Could it be for her too?!"

"That's not necessarily the case." Yan Sanbai closed the invitation, "Miss Su is suspicious, and Su Zhi is equally suspicious. Besides, Miss Su is blind, who killed the nursing home?"
