Queen's Detective
Chapter 18 Murder
Li Yan sat at the mahogany table, picked up the teacup and blew lightly, and what he brought was - among thousands of flowers, not a single leaf touched his body.
Yan Sanbai hid behind the curtain, his wide-open eyes betrayed him—the flowers to him were like a tiger's den and a dragon's pool.
The girls saw that Yan Sanbai's eyes really shined, and Qiu Chan added in a timely manner, "This is the famous number one scholar, Yan Xia is here."
Sure enough, the most feared thing still came.Zhuangyuanlang is like a quack nickname, louder than Yan Sanbai's real name.
Yan Sanbai looked at Li Yan—Jianghu emergency!
Li Yan raised his eyebrows—who was the fastest runner just now?
Yan Sanbai's beautiful black eyebrows suddenly drooped a little. If no one could save me, I had no choice but to save myself.Just when the girls' claws were about to touch him, Yan Sanbai jumped up to the second floor, and landed firmly on the railing.
"Wow - what a handsome dexterity!"
"Zhuangyuanlang, fly another one to see~"
"Come down, Zhuangyuan~ My family is still waiting for you below~"
……
Yan Sanbai really couldn't laugh or cry, standing on the railing was in a dilemma.However, from the corner of his vision, he caught a glimpse of Qiu Chan on the opposite side who seemed to be winking behind him, and he was alerted immediately, and immediately jumped onto the railing next to him.
The girl behind jumped at nothing, and she didn't get annoyed, she giggled for a while, "Zhuangyuan Lang is very skilled, but don't play hide-and-seek with my slave anymore."
Yan Sanbai's heart trembled, goosebumps arose, and he almost fell off the railing.
He cupped his hands and begged for mercy: "Girls, I'm here to investigate the case, so let me go?"
Qiu Chan fanned the flames on the opposite side, "Young scholar, you are a man, why do you want a little girl to let you in?"
Yan Sanbai rubbed his nose, "I'm ashamed."
At this time, Li Yan finally spoke out mercifully. The teacup was placed on the table, and there was a clear sound, "Okay, he has a low face. Without my permission, you are not allowed to molest him casually."
The girls then reluctantly parted, leaving many Yan Sanbai with unbearable winks.Yan Sanbai was about to thank Li Yan, when suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he looked up at the roof, thoughtfully.
Seeing his expression, Li Yan knew that he must have discovered something, so he came to him and asked, "How is it?"
"Let's go to the top of the building to have a look." Yan Sanbai said, tapped his toes, moved around a few times, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived at the corridor on the top floor, opened the window and climbed to the top of the building, Yan Sanbai looked around Patrolling, just hang a piece of red broken steps on the ridge of the roof.
Li Yan came over and took a look, "It belongs to Qin Sang."
Yan Sanbai nodded, and walked a few steps forward to the edge of the roof, looking down, it was the place where Qin Sang fell.
At this point, the mystery of Qin Sang's falling from the building can also be solved.She fell from here, not from the window of the room. During the fall, she happened to be caught by the maidservant Xiaoyue.This would explain exactly why the candle on the window sill was not poured.
"From this point of view, it is impossible for Miss Qin Sang to commit suicide." Yan Sanbai said: "Miss Qin Sang does not know martial arts, so it is absolutely impossible for Miss Qin Sang to climb here alone."
"But the murderer who killed Li Qian didn't seem to have any martial arts skills, and his strength was weak. Could it be that they were from the same group?" Li Yan, like Yan Sanbai, certainly didn't believe in cursing and killing people. Perhaps, these two things had nothing to do with each other. It was Li Qian's enemy who used the name of the curse to confuse his attention.
"My lord! Hero Yan!" At this moment, a lone voice came from downstairs.
The two of them didn't go back the same way, and jumped directly from the top of the building.Ling Ding saw that the two people were still on the roof one moment, and appeared beside him the next moment, one on the left and one on the right, which caught people off guard.
He quickly patted his chest, feeling both surprised and envious in his heart, when his prince came down, he borrowed his strength in mid-air, but Yan Sanbai just floated down like a straight leaf, he really is a role model for us!
Li Yan looked at his hopeless appearance, and shook his head with a funny smile, "What's the matter?"
Only then did Ling Ding think about the business, "My lord, I went to fetch Miss Qin Sang's jade pendant according to your order, but the jade pendant was not on her, and I didn't find it after searching for a long time."
"Could it be placed in the room?" Yan Sanbai asked.
"Impossible." Li Yan quickly denied this possibility, "I have never seen her take off that jade pendant, and she tied a knot on the jade pendant, so it is very difficult to drop it."
"So, the jade pendant might be taken away by the murderer." Yan Sanbai pondered: "Then, my lord, go and find out if Miss Qin Sang and Li Qian are really related, and I'll go to Li's house to find out."
The key now is whether the two cases are related or not, otherwise it will be difficult to find the right path when viewed separately.Li Yan had to rush back to Chang'an before the Queen Mother's birthday, and they didn't have much time, only six or seven days.
However, facing Yan Sanbai's reasonable distribution, Li Yan said—"No."
Yan Sanbai was puzzled, did he have a better way?
Li Yan opened the folding fan, and saw the brand new fan, painted like a hill...Lifelike buns, shook it, "Eat breakfast first."
Yuanfeng Steamed Bun Shop is one of the best time-honored shops in Luoyang City, with reasonable prices and authentic craftsmanship. It is a taste unique to Luoyang City.
When people follow Baihuaxiang to the street in the early morning sunshine, they can see that the corner of the street belonging to the steamed stuffed bun shop has become cloudy and rosy because of the steam, and people who buy steamed stuffed buns line up in a long queue, which is spectacular.
Yan Sanbai was stunned, and Li Yan explained: "The son of the old owner of the Baozi shop passed the examination last year as a scholar, and everyone said that he must be a master in the future. He is also a dutiful son. He often comes to the shop to help after studying. Come to get a taste of his literary spirit. Of course, no matter how talented you are, you can't compare with your Zhuangyuan Lang."
Yan Sanbai rubbed his nose, you shout, I won't listen.
While waiting for the buns, Li Yan asked again: "What do you think of the girls in the building?"
Yan Sanbai paused, "This... I don't have any special thoughts."
Li Yan smiled, "I'm asking you if they are suspected."
"Cough, from the looks of it, Miss Qiuchan is indeed a bit suspicious. Compared to the others, she is a little too enthusiastic. Has she always had a bad relationship with Miss Qin Sang?"
"Cough, it's not very good." Now it was Li Yan's turn to feel a little embarrassed.But Yan Sanbai didn't know where this embarrassment came from, so he looked at him suspiciously, those big eyes like starry night seemed to be able to see into Li Yan's heart.
Li Yan hastily changed the subject, "Don't you have any doubts about me?"
Yan Sanbai was stunned, and tilted his head slightly, "Why do you doubt you?"
"Just now that Xiao Er told you something bad about me, right?"
"Oh, yes. He seems to think that you are the heartbreaker mentioned in the blood."
"Most people think so." Li Yan shrugged. On the surface, he was the man who had the closest relationship with Qin Sang, so he could completely understand such thoughts.
However, he heard Yan Sanbai say——
"But I trust you." Yan Sanbai's tone was still so sincere and frank.
For Yan Sanbai, Li Yan's expression when he heard the news of Qin Sang's death did not seem to be fake, and he was also very optimistic about Li Yan's character, so it was reasonable to believe him.
But after Li Yan heard that, he kept staring at him without blinking, which made Yan Sanbai feel embarrassed.Yan Sanbai can be sure that those Danfeng eyes are wider than usual.
"My lord?"
"I found that you seem to be more beautiful than the day before."
"what?"
The eyelids of Ling Ding, who queued up to buy buns, couldn't help twitching. The two stood behind the big willow tree, with their backs to passers-by. Could it be that they were hiding here - praising each other for their good looks?
Yan Sanbai first saw the one who was looking at them strangely, and hurriedly stopped the topic.
Lone Ding stepped forward and gave them the buns.
Yan Sanbai took a sip, then paused, "What's in it... are flowers?"
"Exactly, Luoyang specialty, the one in your hand is filled with peony stuffing." Li Yan said.
Yan Sanbai smelled it again, and couldn't help sighing in his heart—Luoyang is truly a city of flowers, even the buns are stuffed with flower petals.
It's just that this kind of bun is obviously not suitable for Yan Sanbai.
I don't know why, but Yan Sanbai seems to be particularly scented with flowers, and the peony scent hasn't dissipated after a long time, as if he has put face powder on his body.
It was even worse when he was speaking, Li Yan moved his nose, and Dan Feng looked at him with a meaningful expression.
Yan Sanbai didn't know what he meant at all, the best explanation was - Li Yan was just teasing him.
So he turned around and turned into a white cloud and drifted away.
Seeing that he had gone far away, Li Yan turned around and walked in another direction. At the same time, the smile on the corner of his mouth was also tainted with a touch of coldness.
Looking at it alone, my heart skipped a beat—the lord protects his shortcomings, someone will suffer now.
Jia Fu.
Jia Qing rubbed the center of his eyebrows, and was about to lie down and rest for a while.But as soon as his head touched the pillow, he sat up uneasy and called his confidant butler.
"Where is the young master? But in the mansion?"
"Go back to the master, the young master has been in the room and has not gone out."
"That's very good," Jia Qing nodded, "Order it down, show me the young master these days, no one can let him out of the house without my permission!"
"Yes, sir."
At the moment, the Li family is in a gloomy state.Li Qian's newly married wife, Wu Shi, hugged her husband's body and wept bitterly. How could she not be heartbroken that she would be widowed in less than a month after her marriage.
As for why Li Qian died in the ruined temple, the Li family has no clue at all.As everyone remembers, Li Qian is a very conscientious person, and he would never fool around in the place of fireworks, and now that he is married again, he will not.
Wu Shi originally thought that she married a beloved man, but she did not expect that the beloved went out to visit friends last night, and when he came back, he looked like this.
Yan Sanbai asked who that friend was, Wu also shook his head.She was always at ease with Mr. Xiang, so she didn't ask any more questions.
Yan Sanbai went to visit a few friends who had a lot of contacts with Li Qian on weekdays, but nothing was gained.Thus, the thread is broken.
Left and right couldn't think of a reason, so Yan Sanbai planned to go to the palace to rest for a while, to recharge his energy and investigate the case.On the way there, he stopped by the bookstore and bought a book of words written by Mengbi.
Yan Sanbai looked at it while walking, not wasting a moment.
The people on the road saw a gentle and elegant young man reading a book tirelessly, and were moved, they couldn't help but be amazed - this man who walks and reads without bumping into anyone, seems to be about to bump into someone, but in a blink of an eye, the young man and Pedestrians pass by.
Is it by chance?Or deliberately?
People passing by couldn't help but take another look, because the young master is handsome, they took another look.
One glance after another, but unexpectedly, from an angle that no one has seen, a crisis suddenly arises!
A flash of silvery sword tip suddenly stabbed out, and the killing intent suddenly appeared, life and death were only an instant away.
And Yan Sanbai still couldn't let go of the book, his eyes were focused and his expression was peaceful.However, just when the tip of the sword was about to pierce his throat, Yan Sanbai suddenly took a step to the right.
Moving slowly, the tip of the sword is galloping, fast and slow appear in the same scene, but it is incredible that the slow beats the fast, the tip of the sword missed Yan Sanbai's neck by a short move.
A black thread was cut off and floated leisurely on the page.
Yan Sanbai shook the book, shaking off the black hair, then raised his eyes, his black eyebrows condensed into blades, and looked behind him.It was empty there, and there was no more murderous intent.
I have been following him for so long since Chang'an, and only now did it. This time, the killer seems to have practiced the art of tolerance.
Yan Sanbai hid behind the curtain, his wide-open eyes betrayed him—the flowers to him were like a tiger's den and a dragon's pool.
The girls saw that Yan Sanbai's eyes really shined, and Qiu Chan added in a timely manner, "This is the famous number one scholar, Yan Xia is here."
Sure enough, the most feared thing still came.Zhuangyuanlang is like a quack nickname, louder than Yan Sanbai's real name.
Yan Sanbai looked at Li Yan—Jianghu emergency!
Li Yan raised his eyebrows—who was the fastest runner just now?
Yan Sanbai's beautiful black eyebrows suddenly drooped a little. If no one could save me, I had no choice but to save myself.Just when the girls' claws were about to touch him, Yan Sanbai jumped up to the second floor, and landed firmly on the railing.
