Xiao Heng's hand lightly on Xiao Yansui's shoulder tightened suddenly.

Xiao Yansui didn't turn her head back, but patted him lightly with her own hand.

The people present, before they had time to recover from the discovery of the three dead bodies, were shocked by Xiao Yansui's words again.

The guard who just came to report the letter subconsciously looked at Gao Lishi.

Gao Lishi's face remained motionless, he just spoke softly, and calmly said: "Just do what Xiao Liuniang says!"

"Yes!" The guard immediately responded, and the person who had just rubbed his footprints hurriedly followed.

Xiao Yansui originally wanted to follow her to see the condition of the corpse, but even when she just heard the news that someone had been killed, Xiao Heng subconsciously covered her ears, how could it be possible that he was only five years old in his heart? Little sister to see such a bloody and terrible scene?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yansui simply gave up.After all, she doesn't study forensic medicine, so she may know a little bit of common sense, but anyway, Tang Dynasty also has work at the moment, no matter whether the technology is developed or not, at least she is professional in this area...

Those three people were all killed and then abandoned. The clothes and shoes on their bodies were not damaged too much. After a while, the comparison results came out.

"The shoe prints of the three people can all match...they are the rather messy footprints in the house."

Xiao Yansui ran away from Xiao Heng's side, and walked to the door of the Orion's hut again, her silent gaze fell on the ground with a trace of chill, and she swept slowly from left to right, if she guessed correctly Well, the three corpses discovered by the guards brought by Gao Lishi just now are the people who kidnapped her so far.

As a result, after tying her up, she was killed without even having time to go down the mountain?

——In such a situation, Xiao Yansui couldn't think of any other reason besides being murdered to silence her.

The footprints shown by the rubbings, under normal circumstances, people in this era should not have this kind of precautionary awareness. In addition, the shoes of the Tang Dynasty are handmade products, not to mention every family, they are made by the same person. There are slight differences between the two pairs of shoes.Therefore, although Xiao Yansui's method is simple, it is effective.

However, she forgot another thing. In ancient times, the lives of the subordinates were worthless in the eyes of some superiors.

——They never need to think about how to cover up the clues, because their methods are more straightforward and effective, and they can kill all the relevant personnel involved without hesitation!

The case in the case is the most difficult to investigate, especially when the person behind the scenes is purely for the purpose of silence, as long as that person does not show his fox tail for a day, in the eyes of others, he is an innocent person who has no motive to kill.

Xiao Yansui's eyelashes drooped slightly, as if casting a small shadow on the little girl's white, tender and lovely face. However, the gaze hidden under the eyelashes suddenly condensed a little.

"Those three people, this—" Master Daojue had a hesitant and bitter look on his face. He was secretly worried about comparing the shoe prints of the monks in Ximing Temple, but he didn't expect three people to come out so soon.

Although it would be very troublesome if he couldn't find that person, but if he really found him, it would be just as troublesome.Master Daojue has thoroughly experienced this feeling of being roasted on the fire and the road ahead is difficult.

The Xiao brothers and sisters didn't move just now, and Gao Lishi didn't move either. Although Master Daojue felt uneasy, he didn't follow to see the situation of the three corpses.

Soon, a dressed-up man followed the guards and reported, "The three of them were all killed with a knife, but they seemed to have been beaten before, and there were still many non-fatal injuries on their bodies."

Hearing this, Xiao Yansui was startled suddenly, and couldn't help frowning.

From the beginning to the end, she acted like a naive and childish little girl in front of others. As for the few words that she said from her mouth, instead of being childish, they were extraordinarily meticulous, others would only think that they were taught by Xiao's elders, so that Well, Xiao Yansui didn't even bother to hide it. The more calm she was, the more others would believe that she was a parrot.

But now, after the little girl frowned unconsciously, others couldn't help being curious. This time, it probably wasn't what Xiao's parents taught her.

"But what's wrong?" Gao Lishi looked calm, but asked curiously.

Xiao Heng also kept looking at his younger sister, seeing her frown, he couldn't help worrying in his heart, and coaxed softly: "Liu Niang?"

Xiao Yansui was straightforward, and replied directly: "Yesterday, I met Zhang Jiulang, the young master of Duke Yan's mansion. He told me that he had met a few rascals in the market before and taught him a lesson..."

In other words, those few people who had been silenced probably bumped into Zhang Dai before, and were punished by this arrogant young man before they died.

Thinking of this possibility, for a while, even Gao Lishi was a little dumbfounded, not knowing what to say.

After hearing Xiao Yansui's words, Master Daojue suddenly opened his eyes wide and let out a long sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart.If those three corpses were all rogues with long hair, they must not be monks from Ximing Temple...

Although it is necessary to investigate, but as the abbot of Ximing Temple, Master Daojue really does not want any monk to get involved in such matters.

Because these three people were killed, but the person behind the scenes who silenced them could not be found for the time being, the clue seemed to be cut off again here.

Xiao Yansui's cute little face was wrinkled into a bun. Xiao Heng picked up his sister and patted her on the back lightly. It is impossible to track down the people behind the scenes overnight. There are many twists and turns, and it is inevitable of.

"Shoe prints." The little girl lay in her brother's arms, looking a little unhappy and sullen, but when she spoke, her voice was crisp.

Master Daojue smiled wryly and took the initiative to promise: "After the poor monk returns to Ximing Temple, he will definitely investigate carefully and give Xiao Xiao an explanation."

"Oh, thank you for your hard work." Xiao Yansui raised her head and glanced at the old monk while being hugged by her brother.

"..." It was obvious that what he said was very sincere, but it felt a little subtle. Master Daojue suddenly felt that he seemed to be choked up and didn't know what else to say.

When Xiao Song and Pei Yaoqing arrived at Xu Guogong's mansion together, they recognized Pei's father, Pei Yaoqing and Mr. Pei Xianggong, and immediately a clever porter ran to deliver a letter to Pei.

Xiao Song and Pei Yaoqing met each other and looked at each other. Pei Yaoqing suggested: "Let's go to Liu Niang's yard first and see my granddaughter!"

As for Mrs. Pei, after hearing the news of her father's arrival, it was not hard to imagine why Pei Yaoqing had come. She would naturally go to Xiao Yansui's yard to find someone.

"Alright." Xiao Song nodded in agreement.

As a result, these two high-ranking people had just walked into Xiao Yansui's yard, and before they had time to listen to the report, the news that Xiao Yansui had just gone out with Xiao Heng could smell the strong aroma of wine all over the yard.

"...This is?" Pei Yaoqing sniffed carefully, and couldn't help but glance at Xiao Song. They both got married, and they had never heard of Lanling Xiao's hidden wine. The secret recipe!

At that time, not to mention the rich and powerful families with a long history, even the small households who make a living in the streets and streets, there must be a secret recipe at home that will not be passed on to the outside world.

As for these high-ranking and powerful families, there are even more secret recipes in their homes. Besides, these secret recipes are not only used by the family on weekdays, but also used as gifts during New Year's festivals and weddings and weddings.

If the Xiao family had a secret recipe for wine making, Pei Yaoqing would definitely not know the contents of the secret recipe, but it would be impossible not to taste the wine made with this secret recipe.

Xiao Song waved his hand, indicating that he really didn't know this time. "But Liu Niang doesn't like to go out to play on weekdays. She likes to tinker with odds and ends and weird things at home." Xiao Song is still very clear about his granddaughter's personality and preferences.

"Just ask my good granddaughter." Pei Yaoqing subconsciously quickened her pace as she smelled the smell of wine in the courtyard.

Naturally, Xiao Song didn't fall behind, and didn't let his servants lead the way. The two hurried into Xiao Yansui's yard, each with a sharp nose, and released Xiao Yansui following the scent. Two bottles of distilled spirits were recovered from the museum shelf.

——No way, except for the substantial increase in the alcohol content, the distilled wine is still wine after all. Although it is strong, it can be drunk, and, in the eyes of wine lovers, it may still be a rare fine wine...

Xiao Song and Pei Yaoqing didn't look for another place, they just sat down in front of Xiao Yansui's study where he usually did experiments, waiting for Mrs. Pei and Xiao Yansui to come over.

Xiao Song also asked the maid to bring up the wine cup, and the two of them opened the wax seal of the alcohol, poured two glasses of small wine neatly, tasted it first, was amazed, and then drank it happily Woke up.

Xiao Song was very proud, while drinking, he showed off to Pei Yaoqing: "This fine wine must have been prepared by Liu Niang for me."

Pei Yaoqing didn't think so, what Xiao Song could have, Xiao Yansui would never forget her grandfather, they were all elders, what was he afraid of?

After Xiao Yansui and Xiao Heng left surrounded by guards and servants, Gao Lishi did not stay any longer, and after bidding farewell to Master Daojue, he hurried down the mountain from Ximing Temple.

However, before returning to Xingqing Palace, he called the guards who discovered the corpse, as well as the coroner who performed the autopsy.

"You didn't mention just now, what happened to the knife wound that killed those three people at once." Gao Lishi was riding on the horse, holding the rein in one hand, condescending, looking into the distance. His face also became indistinct, his voice was extremely soft, but very clear, and it was even more unbearable to stand on end.

The guard stood respectfully in front of the horse, bowing his head slightly, but it was okay, but the back of the clerk was soaked in cold sweat, and he knelt down on the ground with a "plop", his teeth chattering, but he never dared to speak.

Gao Lishi understood instantly in his heart, smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and waved away the guards around him, and for a while, only he and the assistant were left within a few feet, Gao Lishi said again: "Say it!"

The butler knelt on the ground, his body was still trembling a little, and there was a sense of panic in his voice, "A knife wound that can kill with a single knife - the knife used by ordinary people to kill chickens and cook vegetables, must not be like this."

Gao Lishi's eyes tightened, and before the almost frightened Wu could speak, he lowered his voice and said, "It's a weapon in the army!"

"That's interesting." Gao Lishi murmured to himself with his eyes lowered.

In today's inner city of Chang'an, the emperor's personal guards include the royal guards, the Left and Right Habayashi Army, the Left and Right Longwu Army, and the Left and Right Shenwu Army. Can't you get some military weapons underneath?

Wanting to find the owner of a military weapon in Chang'an City is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.However, even if this person cannot be found, this matter alone is already a dangerous signal.

——It would be fine if the servants of the powerful clan did it, but if the person who murdered and silenced him was really from the Sixth Army of Beiya?
