Nongmen Shenjue

Luo Jianzheng was overjoyed, and then Lin Ruolan's face changed, and she turned her head and spit out the wine from her mouth.Luo Jian's expression also changed, he suppressed it forcefully, pretending to be concerned and asked: "Ruolan, what's wrong?"

Lin Ruolan wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and said in confusion, "What kind of wine is this? Why is it bitter?"

Luo Jian paused, but said, "Is it bitter? I don't think so."

Lin Ruolan looked at the empty wine glass, seemed to be thinking of something, went to the table and picked up the wine pot, and said: "Luo Lang, you know that I like to mix pollen since I was young, and I am very sensitive to all kinds of aromas. I felt it at the beginning. The smell of the wine is a bit mixed, and the moment I drink the wine, I feel a bit of bitterness. I have been to this Bishuixuan many times, but I have never tasted such wine."

Seeing that she really went to check the drinks, Luo Jian panicked.

He knew that Lin Ruolan was smart, but today he realized that her mind is sharp and vigilant, and she really doesn't look like a woman.

What he put in the wine was sweat medicine, this kind of medicine powder is extremely powerful and has a quick onset, when put into the wine, the smell and taste of the medicine powder itself can be covered by the smell of wine, only the vigilant mind and careful observation can detect it.This is a common method used by Jianghu people. He only thinks about Lin Ruolan, a woman, no matter how smart she is, Kuang trusts him very much, who knows...

She has become suspicious, and if she looks carefully, she will definitely find that the wine is slightly cloudy, even if she doesn't know the reason, she will definitely not drink it again, and it may even attract people from the hall.

At this moment, Lin Ruolan happened to have his back turned to him, so he grabbed a stone decorated on the shelf and smashed it hard on Lin Ruolan's head.

"Ah!" Lin Ruolan was unprepared, and fell to the ground with a scream, and the food and drinks on the table were also overturned.

Luo Jian called twice, seeing that the person really didn't respond, he poured all the barrel of oil he brought into the room, especially half of it on Lin Ruolan.This was not enough, and he closed the doors and windows leading to the promenade near the water, then exited the door, threw a fire pocket inside, watched the fire rise, and stuck the door with a wooden stick.

He came to the next door again, and the two bearers and the woman in that room were all down on the table, but the little girl who was following her didn't drink because of her young age, so she thought the three were drunk and didn't drink too much. I don't care, I just lie on the table and eat by myself.

Luo Jian went in and smashed the little girl's face.

This room was not poured with oil, but all the doors and windows were closed and set on fire.

He fiddled with his face a few times, as if putting on a beard and other camouflage, then he left the small courtyard, concealed the courtyard door, and left in a hurry.The business of the restaurant is busy, people come and go, but no one pays attention to him.Although the courtyard was set on fire, no one called for help. It wasn't until the fire got bigger and smoke came out that the nearby guests noticed it and called for help.

Before that, the window was smashed open by a stool, and a man covered in fire fell out and fell into the water.

Mu Qingyan could see clearly that it was Lin Ruolan.

Lin Ruolan was knocked out even though she was knocked out because she didn't drink the wrong wine, but when she was burned by the fire, she woke up with pain instead.The instinct to survive made her open her mouth to call for help, but she felt tearing pain as soon as her lips moved.Oil was splashed on her body, and the fire not only burned her back and arms, but also her face could not escape.The pain made her unable to think, she instinctively wanted to flee, water can overcome fire, and the room was built facing the water, she subconsciously groped towards the door and window over there, broke the window forcibly, and plunged into the lake.

Originally there were several small boats in the lake, but by coincidence no one saw them.

When the fire drew attention, all the guests in the pavilion escaped, and the firefighters did not dare to go in, but kept drawing water to put out the fire.No one thought that someone set the fire on purpose. They only thought that the fire was so powerful that buckets of lake water were poured on it, causing thick smoke to billow, choking people so that people could not get close, and hindering firefighting.

When the fire was finally extinguished, the small courtyard where the fire first started was in ruins and charred.

The fire spread to the entire pavilion, causing heavy losses.

Finally, the government came to investigate and found the bones in the small courtyard, which were quite scattered.Knowing that it was Miss Ruolan from Chunfeng Pavilion who came to the bureau, but she never saw anyone come out, so she thought that someone died inside.

but……

No matter how scattered the bones are, it is always necessary to work hard to check the number of victims.There are five people in Chunfeng Pavilion plus Lin Ruolan, and there are at least six guests for Lin Ruolan.Four people died in the fire, two sets of bones were missing, not to mention anything else, didn't Spring Wind Pavilion ask?Lin Ruolan is a tool to make money in the court, so she is not willing to let go easily.

Withdrew from the ability, fatigue swept the whole body.

"Lie down." Wen Jixue pointed to the bamboo couch in the room and said.

Mu Qingyan didn't try to be brave, although this time it was only going back to five years ago, but the time was very long, so he was naturally very tired, but his mind was heavy and stuffy, but it didn't hurt.

He lay down on the couch, closed his eyes, and suddenly felt a coolness on his forehead, when he opened his eyes to see, it was Wen Jixue who placed a jade tablet on his forehead.

"It's just a jade token, as long as it's useful." Wen Jixue didn't have any frugal thoughts.

In the past, Mu Qingyan followed the habit of his previous life and only kept the jade for critical times, but it was hard to find good jade in his previous life, and it cost hundreds of thousands or millions. Even though he thought he had a lot of savings, he also felt heartache, so he naturally wanted to save it. Some.

Wen Jixue was never short of money, of course he knew it, he didn't think much about it before, but after seeing him now, he remembered it and asked him: "You got something from the photo studio?"

"Naturally. People are dead, so those things fall into my hands. I have a lot of places to spend money. I remember there are good jade in it. It's just a waste of time to get them. These are enough for now. Over there Take it and send it directly to Fenglin." Wen Jixue said in such detail to comfort him and let him not have any worries.

Mu Qingyan was not polite to him, and just said: "You ask Gao Tian to go to the county government to find out the details of the county government's investigation of the fire. I always feel that the county government's conclusions are too sloppy, and someone may have ordered it."

He even guessed that it was Luo Jian, or someone related, and now he just went to confirm it.

"I know, you just need to rest." Wen Jixue had figured it out a long time ago, he must be extremely exhausted at this moment, and it was time to rest and adjust his breathing.

Mu Qingyan closed his eyes, absorbing the aura from the jade tablet to help replenish his spirit.

Gao Tian got the news that night.

The county magistrate who handled the case has been transferred, but the chief arrester has not changed.This is also a matter of old times. People who are involved in everything may die or leave. If you give some money to manage it, you will have no scruples about arresting the head.

When the pavilion was on fire, Lin Ruolan was the first person suspected by Chunfeng Pavilion. He suspected that someone was helping him, and used the fire to cover Lin Ruolan's escape.Although Lin Ruolan has been in the Spring Breeze Pavilion for many years, the old bustard in the pavilion knows that Lin Ruolan has been secretly supporting her lover, and she is counting on him to save her from high school.The palace examination was over, the gold list was posted, Lin Ruolan was actively looking for news, the bustard also knew that Luo Jian had entered high school, and was about to wait for the lion to speak, but Lin Ruolan went to a dinner and said that she was killed in the fire.

Of course the bustard didn't believe it!

But Luo Jian came back, maybe it was because the two of them got through the plan and didn't want to pay for the ransom.

The old bustard couldn't swallow this breath, and felt that Luo Jian was a Jinshi, and he didn't get an official. He was a poor boy with no power and power, and thought that an official career would be easy.The old bustard was not afraid of Luo Jian, after all, there was a patron behind the brothel, so she went to the county government office, hoping to find Lin Ruolan.

However, the county government told her that Lin Ruolan was burned to death, and a body was found from the fire, whose height matched Lin Ruolan's.

The old bustard went to inquire again, and learned that Luo Jian held a banquet in his hometown on the night of the accident.

The guest who invited Lin Ruolan to the bureau could not be found, and it seemed very suspicious. The county government said that the guest had left for a while, and said that there were five people from Chunfeng Pavilion in the hall.

Helpless, the old bustard could only admit that Lin Ruolan was dead, and demanded a sum of compensation from the owner of the restaurant, which was better than nothing.

The head catcher talked about the inside story of this matter, and lowered his voice mysteriously: "The county magistrate fooled Chunfeng Pavilion like this at the beginning, but he was instructed. That is a nobleman from the middle of Beijing. He should be in charge and handle things well. Prestige. Later, the county magistrate slipped his tongue, and I found out that it was from the Shoushan Hou Mansion. Of course, now that his family has committed a crime, it is the Shoushan Bo Mansion."

The fact that the arrester dared to speak was not because he was not afraid of Shoushanbo's mansion, but because Luo Jian was dead. "The mountains are high and the emperor is far away." Shoushanbo's mansion was severely punished for oppressing the people in Tianshui County to seize good land. I'm afraid they will never come back.

"The Tian family..." It wasn't surprising.

Since the person who came was a steward and could use the name of the Tian family, it must not be Tian Xiufang.At that time Tian Xiufang was not yet married, even if she was favored again, she could not force the mansion to be in charge.Maybe it's Old Hou Ye?Or... Tian Xiufang's own mother?Helping Luo Jian clean up, naturally he didn't want this matter to be exposed.

However, what was the purpose of sending the housekeeper to Tianshui County secretly at first?

Monitor Luo Jian?

Wen Jixue thought for a while, then said with a sarcasm: "You can't forget, even ordinary people have to inquire about the relatives of their children when they see each other. How can the Tian family not marry Luo Jian when they marry a daughter? Luo Jian has no other strengths other than being talented and knowledgeable. I am afraid that everything big and small will be investigated. If he is investigated, he must know the entanglement between him and Lin Ruolan, so he will send a steward to follow him secretly. , the intention is obvious."

At that time, the Tian family only made an appointment to marry Luo Jian in private, and did not announce it to the public, so outsiders did not know about it.

Even though the Tian family knew about Lin Ruolan's identity, how could such a big marquis mansion take such a little girl seriously?What's more, she is a prostitute who can't even be in charge of herself, and wants to seek revenge from the Marquis' Mansion?All they care about is Luo Jian, it depends on Luo Jian's choice, if Luo Jian can't take care of Lin Ruolan, the butler of the Tian family will be the backup, and there are countless marriages that have been arranged in private, and even the Tian family will suppress Luo Jian If you are not allowed to show up in your official career, you will lose your life.

When Luo Jian attacked Lin Ruolan for his future, the butler of the Tian family took care of him.

Luo Jian probably didn't know about this matter from beginning to end.

It was because they didn't know that the county government was acting as a cover that they didn't notice the abnormality and thought that Lin Ruolan was dead.He was so horrified when he saw Lin Ruolan appearing many years later.

"Since the Tian family knew that the number of bones was wrong, they must have searched in Tianshui County, but they couldn't find them?" Mu Qingyan thought it was inconceivable.
