Queen's Detective

Chapter 166 Letter

When Abai and Li Yan arrived, what they saw was the scene of Li Qing holding the wooden box tightly in the middle of the pool, trembling all over.And Mrs. Li and a group of servants and maids stood anxiously on the bank and called his name.

Abai quickly rescued him.

"Qing'er, my Qing'er, how are you?" Mrs. Li came over and stretched out her hand to him, but Li Qing couldn't help but hide behind Ah Bai, trembling all over, holding the box tightly, like a frightened hedgehog Curled up, hiding the softness, exposing the sharpness.

A Bai blocked him without any trace, "Madam, for now, let's prepare some hot water and cold-dispelling soup for Mr. Li."

Madam Li was taken aback for a moment, and immediately asked someone to prepare it. After finishing the order, she came back to her senses—two unexpected guests came to the mansion.

But she is worthy of being an old lady who came out of a powerful family, and she didn't show much panic when she saw Li Yan. She knelt down and saluted, but her voice was slightly hoarse, "The women see His Royal Highness, I don't know if His Highness is here. We welcome you from afar, and hope for atonement."

Li Yan waved his hand, "Madam Li, please stand up, this king is here to find Mr. Li, you don't need to be formal."

"My lord, you have seen it too. Something happened to my grandson, and it is inconvenient to receive guests for the time being. You might as well invite the lord to sit in the front hall and let the old man take care of you."

"No, this king happens to be proficient in medical skills. But old lady, your health is important, please get up." Li Yan interrupted her directly, and then looked at the servants beside him severely, "Hurry up and help your old lady go rest."

The servants all woke up like a dream, and quickly helped Mrs. Li up.Amon stepped forward at the right time, and without giving Mrs. Li a chance to speak, he helped her leave.Mrs. Li was frightened by Li Qing, her old body couldn't bear it, so she had no choice but to be helped away.

A Bai supported Li Qing, and entered the house with Li Yan.

Li Qing seemed to have calmed down a little, and no longer clinging to the box tightly, but the distressed appearance standing in front of the box with water dripping all over his body was still worrying.

After he came out after wiping off the water and changing his clothes, Ah Bai handed him a cup of hot tea, and finally he regained a trace of peace.

"Master Li, what happened just now?" Abai asked gently.

Li Qing pondered over his words, probably because Abai's eyes were too sincere, he finally seemed to let go of his guard, looked down at the steaming tea, and said, "Grandmother told me that I have hysteria since I was a child, so I invited many doctors to give it to me. I treat illnesses. Today she brought up the old matter again, and, moreover, she said that she would talk to me about a marriage the next day, and if I refused, she would lock me up."

Hearing this, Ah Bai looked at the box again, "What's in that box?"

box.Li Qing suddenly remembered something, hurriedly opened the box in a panic, took out another small brocade box from the box, opened the box hastily, and a large pile of letters fell out and scattered all over the floor.However, seeing that they were safe and sound and not soaked in water, Li Qing was still relieved.

After that, he was stunned again, and when he turned around, he saw Li Yan leaning over to pick up one of them, and flipping through it back and forth.

Li Yan raised his eyes to look at Li Qing——is it ok?

Li Qing clenched his hands tightly, his face was still a little pale, but after hesitating for a moment, he still nodded.

Then Li Yan stopped being polite to him, and opened the letter, and the beautiful characters were printed in front of his eyes.Every letter has no signature, no recipient, only content, sometimes a few lines of greetings, and sometimes a detailed account of the current situation.

After several nights of rain, the fragrance of crabapple flowers is still there.Xieyuhua, Xieyuhua, do you know whose language it can understand?

Today, I am sleepy in spring and extremely lazy, but my master still teaches me to read. There is a saying in "Mencius" that I haven't understood until now. The master disagrees with me, and he can't give me a correct answer and convince me. I don't know if you have other opinions. Regarding the sentence "Grandma said that I must have been bewitched, She is obsessed with ghosts, she always wants to screw me over, no matter how I ask, she ignores it." Li Qing said quietly, looking at Abai with hope in his eyes, "You should, you should understand what I'm talking about ?”

Abai suddenly felt sour and distressed, "Who is he?"

Li Qing shook his head, with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, "I don't know either, we all communicate by letter with carrier pigeons, and I have never seen him, so my grandmother always said that I have hysteria, and he said that person was imagined by me." .But he obviously exists, and he wrote me many letters.”

He smiled, but it was uglier than crying.

A Bai stepped forward to put his arms around him, and patted his back, "As long as you believe he is there, he will be there."

Li Qing nodded, finally getting a little comfort in his heart.

Li Yan was eating in the back, the fan slapped, and he held back with great difficulty, not stepping forward to kick Li Qing away.

After consoling him like this for a while, Abai asked again: "Mr. Li, why did you come home suddenly?"

"I forgot something."

Abai remained calm, "What is it?"

"Clothes, I just wanted to get some change of clothes, but I was discovered anyway." Li Qing lowered his eyes.

He is lying.

Ah Bai could tell at a glance, but why did he lie?

Putting doubts aside for now, fearing that something would happen to Li Qing if he stayed at home, Ah Bai finally brought him out.He knew that the matter of cutting sleeves would not be tolerated by the world after all, after all, in this world, where could he find the second Luoyang King Li Yan?

Thinking about it this way, I am extremely lucky.

After Li Qing was resettled, A Bai and Li Yan sat in the small courtyard of the Bai Mansion drinking tea.

"But you think it's strange?" Li Yan said.

"Well, the first time Li Qing lied was because he couldn't explain his whereabouts. The second time he lied, the reason was similar. It's really hard not to make people suspect. What exactly is he doing?"

"Perhaps, it has something to do with the owners of those letters."

Among Wuyashan, Li Qing, the letter writer, and the disappearing Fang Tianshuo, is it a coincidence or necessity?A Bai slightly frowned while thinking, suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed.

He remembered a detail that had been mentioned repeatedly - for Li Qing's hysteria, Mrs. Li had invited famous doctors all over the place, and next door to the inn room where Fang Tianshuo lived was a well-known quack doctor.Xiao Er said that no one visited Fang Tianshuo, but many people went to the doctor for medical advice!

"Amon, you go to the inn to check." Abai made a decisive decision, "Qinghe, let's go to Lifu again."

No one in Li's mansion expected that Abai and Li Yan would kill another carbine. At that time, the depressed old lady just lay down on the bed when she heard the news that Li Qing was taken away.The steward, Yuan Tong, wanted to go out again, but when he reached the gate, he suddenly remembered what happened just now, and he still had lingering fears, so he simply turned his head and walked through the back door.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the door was opened, the folding fan swayed the breeze and brushed his face, and the red fire hit him and staggered.

Yuan Tong fell back and sat on the ground, wishing he could slap his thighs and scold his mother - why are you everywhere? !

However, in front of the regent, of course he could lower his head but never raise his eyes, trembling and pleading guilty repeatedly.

However, the regent still knelt down condescendingly and patted his head, "You seem very unhappy to see this king."

Yuan Tong was wronged, he was not only unhappy, he wanted to hang himself.

A Bai shook his head helplessly, "Let's go, the business is important."

Li Yan curled his lips, feeling bored, stood up and wanted to leave.

Ah, the angel!Yuan Tong prostrated himself on the ground in tears of gratitude, and silently felt ashamed for his rude behavior a few days ago.Unexpectedly, before he could even blink, Tianxian came back and squatted down, "Do you know Fang Tianshuo from Tianhua School?"

The regent also squatted down with him, opened his fan to cover his mouth and nose, and the four large Chinese characters painted with silver hooks on the fan were facing him - especially shameless.

Yuan Tong rolled his eyes and almost fainted.

But he didn't dare, so he replied tremblingly: "No, no, the mansion has been busy looking for the young master these days, and no one from the Jianghu has been here."

A Bai blinked, "Did I say that he came to your house?"

Yuan Tong: ""

As a result of being quick-mouthed for a while, Yuan Tong was tied up and thrown at the door. Of course, such a gentle and elegant person as Abai would not do such a thing, and it was His Royal Highness the Regent who was completely informal.

A Bai and Li Yan searched most of Li Mansion, and finally found Fang Tianshuo who was locked in a wing room in the backyard.Fang Tianshuo was still in a coma because of the power of transformation in his body.But the two of them were not in a hurry to take him away. Abai fed him a pill from the Medicine King Valley, and then sat with Li Yan and waited for him to wake up.

During this period, Li Yan was still trying to move next to A Bai, but fortunately Fang Tianshuo woke up quickly.

"Yo, you woke up so fast." Li Yan raised his eyebrows.

Fang Tianshuo: ""

What is the situation now?Then he had a headache again, and the scene before coma appeared in his mind, and a trace of anger could not help but flash across his face.Ah Bai saved him, and when he asked, Fang Tianshuo naturally answered.

"The purpose of coming to Jiangzhou this time is actually to find the treasure of the sect. You know, Mr. Yan, my status in the Tianhua sect has plummeted due to certain things in the past few years. Come here, I hope I can find the Tianlin Sword that the Tianhua Sect lost many years ago, and revive the majesty."

"Tianlin Sword? But Xie Changting Xie Senior's sword?" Not to mention Fang Tianxiong's nonsense, the Tianhua Sect was indeed a respected upright and upright sect before him, and the most popular among them was the one called Qilin. Hsieh of the sword.It's just that after Ah Bai came out of Luoyan Valley, he has never heard of his whereabouts again. Even the real Chu madman who is born in the rivers and lakes does not know about this matter.

"Exactly." Fang Tianshuo mentioned this senior with respect in his tone, "Senior Xie suddenly voluntarily withdrew from the Tianhua Sect more than ten years ago. I don't want to implicate the sect, but he has disappeared since then. The Tianlin Sword is the treasure of our Tianhua Sect, and the elders only learned that Senior Xie last appeared in Wuya Mountain after several inquiries."

What Fang Tianshuo said made Ah Bai instantly think of the ancient sword on the tomb.Could it be that the one buried in that tomb is Xie Changting?

"I may know where the Tianlin Sword is, but Brother Fang needs to do me a favor."

After leaving Li Mansion, Abai and Li Yan walked side by side in the secluded alleys, stepping on bluestone slabs, strolling in the courtyard.

Li Yan with his hands behind his back is the same as the romantic prince who played games in the world in the past, and Abai Yanjing Tan Si is still the elegant and elegant detective that everyone loves.

"Feel strange?" Li Yan asked.

A Bai said: "Actually, the most strange thing is not why Mrs. Li stunned Fang Tianshuo. He said that Xie Changting and Master Li are old friends, so there must be something hidden here. It is not surprising. The strange thing is that Li Qing went up the mountain to find Immortal, someone intentionally blew up that rock to cut off the Jiuquan, and behind that rock is exactly where the Tianlin Sword is."

The point that connects two seemingly unrelated things is the most suspect.

"Besides, since Li Qing has someone in his heart, how could he still love immortals?" Li Yan answered with a smug smile, "He doesn't look like someone from Qin Muchu, does he think that immortals are writing to him? "

A Bai didn't want to talk to him, but Li Yan casually plucked a shallow apricot flower sticking out from the lattice window from the courtyard wall he was walking by, and hurriedly put it behind A Bai's ear.

Three thousand white hairs, one apricot blossom.

Li Yan was very happy to see it, but he pretended to sigh, "It's a pity that the real fairy was dragged down by this king, alas."

Ah Bai's hairpin was covered with flowers, and his ears were flushed.Even after so many years, the thin-skinned Xia Tan is still not exaggerated.He walked forward quickly, and the wind blew up the hair on his temples, blowing off a small petal, bringing a burst of elegant fragrance.

Li Yan chases Xia Tan after smelling the fragrance, and he is drunk without drinking the wine spring.

After catching up, Li Yan still pestered Abai, persistently asking him why he didn't write to him.

But it's only a few days apart?

A Bai smiled helplessly, and suddenly, a doubt flashed in his mind--a letter?

He suddenly turned his head and asked Li Yan, "On the letter just now, can you see any creases?"

Li Yan thought about it carefully and shook his head with certainty.

That's strange, Li Qing said, the letter was delivered by carrier pigeon, so there are two ways.One, the letter paper is folded and rolled in a small bamboo tube.Second, it is carried by the carrier pigeon and delivered directly.However, there were no traces on the letter, and it was very smooth.

Li Qing is lying.

"Could it be that he escaped from Li Mansion for the first time, and hid in that person's house during the short few days of vacancy? Maybe he was lying when he said he had never met that person." Li Yan said.

"It's possible. Since letters are not delivered by carrier pigeons, and Li Qing rarely leaves the mansion, then the person who wrote the letter is very likely to be near Li's mansion, not too far away. In the letter, there is a special teacher who taught him Studying and living alone in a small courtyard with begonias planted in the courtyard, then his family should be very wealthy."

"I'll call Amon to investigate one by one."
