The next day, Douzi got up early on purpose, for no other reason. Today is the day when Kaifeng Mansion is enlisted to ask questions.Shopkeeper Li died in the restaurant anyway, and their proprietress is of course going there, as for who will protect their proprietress...

Douzi puffed out his chest against the cool morning wind, and stretched out his hand to stroke his hair, trying to put on a masculine appearance, but it was a pity that he sneezed twice in the end, and was also called out. Fat Li, who was early in the morning, laughed for a long time.

For a competitor like Fat Li who is vying to be the patron of the proprietress, Douzi firmly believes that it must be crushed mercilessly, crushed in all directions!So Douzi snorted disdainfully, and said, "The sun is already drying your buttocks, fat man, go ahead and make breakfast. If our lady boss sees it, hehe..." In order to strengthen the tone, the eyes Almost up to the ceiling.It's a pity that before he could come up with a result, Fat Li had already been hit on the head, and when he looked at it in a blink of an eye, Fat Li's fat face trembled, and he said angrily: "Hey, you boy, You dare to teach me a lesson, it’s lawless, really, look for a fight.”

Douzi was about to stand up and resist, when a cold voice suddenly floated from above his head:

"What are you doing?"

Douzi just glanced at it, and then he and Fat Li stood there in a daze. Fat Li's big hand was still holding on to Douzi's collar, while Douzi curled up, ready to grab Fat Li's fingers.

On the stairs, Mu Li was wearing a snow-white long dress, looked at the two entangled people below with a blank expression, and added coldly: "Early in the morning, open the door to fight, is Taibaiju going to change the martial arts gym? "

Douzi and Fat Li opened their mouths wide, but in the end Douzi reacted quickly, slipped out of Fat Li's hand, swished to the edge of the stairs, raised his head and smiled apologetically, "Morning boss, Fat Li and I are here... ...to stretch your muscles, you got up early..."

Fat Li was stunned for a moment, and stepped forward, not to be outdone, and said with a smile: "Ma'am, what do you want to eat in the morning? I'll do it now."

Mu Li looked at the two of them, and while walking downstairs, he ordered: "Vegetarian buns and egg custard, I don't have an appetite today, so make it lighter."

Fat Li Ma ran to the back kitchen to cook. Seeing that the competitors had already retreated, Dou Zi hurriedly came up to him and followed suit: "Madam, let me make you a pot of tea. I don't have a good appetite." If so, drink some jasmine tea, you will be refreshed and your appetite will be whetted!"

Muchen casually gave an "um" and sat down on the armchair. The whole person shrank into the chair and yawned listlessly. She didn't sleep well, and if she stays like this for a few more days, she should have dark circles under her eyes... She was lost in thought, when suddenly she heard Douzi nagging at the side: "I said, Ma'am, have you been sleeping well these days?" How can you have a good appetite if you can’t sleep well? Look, you have dark circles under your eyes..." Douzi suddenly became alert as he spoke, and when he looked down, he met Mu Li's murderous eyes...In the silence, Mucheno spoke gloomily, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth: "What's wrong with me?"

Dou Zi was so frightened that he nearly jumped up, quickly lowered his head and poured tea, and said with an apologetic smile as he poured it: "Your misread, misread, just now it was... that was a shadow, a shadow, how can you have dark circles under your eyes, lady boss? The skin is fair, like fine porcelain, and things like dark circles are what grow on rough faces like ours..."

"Okay, okay." Muchen interrupted the beans impatiently, "The tea is already out. Tell me, which set of plates or plates did you drop after being so courteous all morning?"

Douzi rubbed his head and smiled, and said, "Where are you, Madam Boss, I missed it last time, I promised I would never do it again, Madam Boss, why do you keep remembering it?"

Mu Li rolled her eyes and said, "Then why? You don't think there's a girl who wants me to make peace for you, right?"

Douzi's face turned red, and he shook his head desperately, "How is it possible, how is it possible... There is no such thing as Boss."

Mu Li took a sip of tea, raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Don't shake it, you won't know where Dong is in a while. Is there nothing wrong? I also said that you always run to the tailor shop on Dongjie, and I still I wonder if you have fallen in love with that little girl from Widow Qiao's house, so I thought too much..."

Before he could finish speaking, Douzi had already disappeared without a trace, carrying the teapot with his blushing face on his face.

The world is finally quiet.

Muchen yawned again, but Bai Guang's old wrinkled face and the last words he said to her suddenly flashed in his mind:

"That year, your mother made a big mistake..."

Was it really her mother who was wrong?Is it wrong to follow the one you love?That group of people obstructed and accused her in every possible way, just because the one her mother fell in love with wasn't their so-called decent and decent gentleman?Could it be that just because of this, they must go to the death of their parents?Such a reason is too ridiculous.If this is not the case, what does Jiang Wenfei's sentence mean, which is far more complicated than she understands?

Muchen's mind is a bit confused, she can't figure out this messy thing, she even wants to run away a little bit, yesterday she fought hard, she really wanted to die with the enemy, if it wasn't With Jiang Wenfei's words, it's hard to imagine where she would be today.And after agreeing to Jiang Wenfei by accident, she was a little dazed again. She felt like she was standing in a desolate Shura field for a long time, unable to recover from the corpses on the ground.

After thinking about it for a long time, she couldn't figure it out, Mu Chen simply didn't think about it anymore, she was gently playing with the small green teacup in her hand, and a smile slowly rose from the corner of her mouth, since she couldn't control it, let's just take a step forward.

Seeing that it was almost noon, the restaurant was much colder than usual, Douzi put a towel on his shoulders, and sat on a stool at the door basking in the sun in boredom, feeling a little angry, how could there be so many guests in the restaurant?Those who can come to the restaurant in their free time on weekdays are all crowded in front of the lobby of Kaifeng Mansion, why should he stay here to do errands?

Just as he was thinking about it, there was a sudden darkness above his head, and Dou Zi was not angry, which blind person would block him from basking in the sun?When he looked up, he saw Jiang Wenfei in a white robe.

Douzi quickly stood up, he knew Jiang Wenfei, wasn't he the young apprentice of the shopkeeper Bai of Baishu Pharmacy?Today his master is a prisoner, a murder suspect, Jiang Wenfei's mood can be imagined, Douzi hastily stepped back, nodded and said: "Mr. Jiang, I came to the shop today, I don't know..."

He was interrupted by Jiang Wenfei before he finished speaking, and he said, "Where's your shopkeeper?"

************************************************** ***********************************

When Muchen went out, there was a drizzle in the sky.Mu Li looked at Jiang Wenfei who was standing with his hands behind his back in front of the door, and gave up the idea of ​​bringing an umbrella. The sun was still visible in the sky, and the rain should not last long.

Although it was raining, when the two arrived at the mansion, the lobby of Kaifeng Mansion was already crowded with a large group of people.Just as Mu Li was about to walk into the crowd, her right hand suddenly tightened. Jiang Wenfei took her hand and said in a low voice, "Don't, it's right here."

Mu Li reacted abruptly, and quickly stopped in his tracks. Standing next to him was the prisoner's own son, and he actually led him to squeeze forward. But Jiang Wenfei pulled it very tightly, Mu Li bit his lip, and glanced at Jiang Wenfei's expressionless face from the corner of his eye, knowing that he must be feeling uncomfortable at the moment, so he let him pull.

Not long after standing still, the three gongs and drums sounded in the hall, Bao Zheng turned out from the back hall in an official robe, sat down in the middle of the hall, and began to hear the case of Taibaiju Li Shousi's sudden death.

The people in front kept pushing forward, chattering privately about the black-faced governor of Kaifeng Mansion.Mu Li and Jiang Wenfei stood far behind, Jiang Wenfei didn't even lift his head, his eyes were on his nose, his nose was on his heart, as if he had no interest in the court hearing.On the other hand, Mu Li maintained a strange posture held by Jiang Wenfei. He neither dared to move nor spoke to him, and he froze there.

At some point, the sky was overcast and the raindrops were getting denser. The clothes of Mu Li and Jiang Wenfei were soaked by the rain.Muchen regretted that he didn't bring an umbrella, but he couldn't go back to get an umbrella at this time. The raindrops were getting heavier and heavier. Through the sound of rain, Muli could vaguely hear the prisoners being interrogated in the courtroom. Bao Zheng and Bai Guang asked and answered, and Bai Guang He confessed to poisoning Li Shousi to death.The people in the hall were discussing a lot, some said that Li Shousi was domineering in his daily life and finally got retribution, some said that Bai Guang was dignified but actually had a vicious heart, some felt sorry, some gloated at his misfortune. Around the Yamen, there was no silence for a moment.

Mu Li didn't bother to listen to the discussion, and looked over everyone's shoulders, vaguely seeing Bai Guang's kneeling back, Bao Zheng sitting in the hall, several guards standing on the left and right, and... and standing sideways On the side, Zhan Zhao in a red official uniform.

Mu Li shrunk her head subconsciously and looked away, but her mind was a little wandering. She heard Douzi mention that Zhan Zhao asked him about herself and asked a lot of questions on the day the restaurant incident happened.Someone just died in the restaurant, so Zhan Zhao just asked himself, so he might not be the object of his suspicion...

Just as she was in a daze, her wrist suddenly tightened, and Jiang Wenfei's hand that was holding her turned upwards, and it actually pinched her veins!

Before Muchen had time to react, he was seized by others, and when he struggled, he felt a strong internal force hit him. As Muchen resisted with all his strength, only two thoughts came to his mind, the first The first idea was: Jiang Wenfei possessed martial arts, but she didn't realize it.The second thought was: What are you doing holding her veins open?To kill her?

Before he could make another thought, he heard Jiang Wenfei next to him speak every word, and his clear voice sent over with inner strength, completely covering up the sound of the rain and the noise of the people in front:

"The case of Taibaiju has other secrets. Shopkeeper Bai is definitely not a murderer. Please tell me, Mr. Bao!"

The voice was clear and clear, and everyone could hear it. As soon as these few words came out, everyone was in an uproar. Bao Zheng in the hall was also shocked, and said loudly: "Who is in the hall? Come up and talk!"

There was a commotion among the people in the hall, and they immediately parted to make way for Jiang Wenfei.It was also at this time that Mu Li successfully managed to get rid of Jiang Wenfei's restraint, and lifted his collar with her backhand. At this moment, she had vaguely guessed Jiang Wenfei's intentions, and her voice trembled when she asked: "Do you want What are you doing?"

Jiang Wenfei took a step forward, avoiding Mu Li's hand, and said in a low voice, "Mu Li, take care of yourself." Then he went to the hall without looking back.

Muchen froze on the spot, the cold raindrops hit her face, Mumu couldn't even feel the cold, she only felt a chill rising from the soles of her feet to the top of her head, the right hand that Jiang Wenfei pulled just now couldn't help shaking, her brain There was a buzzing in the air, and the surrounding noise seemed to have turned into a cold silence.

Bao Zheng in the hall seemed to say something, and Jiang Wenfei seemed to answer something, and there seemed to be a voice of white light, but Mu Li couldn't hear it at all, and she didn't want to hear it either.The raindrops that fell were getting bigger and bigger, wet the hair and stained the face, and the accumulated rainwater kept sliding down the face.Mu Li suddenly remembered that the hand that held her just now was dry and strong, without a trace of tension, trembling uncontrollably, in fact it was her hand all along.

Jiang Wenfei had already thought of everything.

From the very beginning, he was not prepared to let Bai Guang take the blame for him. All he did before was to stabilize Bai Guang so that he could smoothly put the final touch on this case in this lobby.

With his own blood.

Muchen raised his head, and his eyes were immediately covered by the rain. Has it been raining so hard?She couldn't feel it at all, and the sound of rain and human voices became blurred, as if they were coming from some distant place.I don't know how long it took, the top of my head suddenly went dark, and a clear male voice came down:

"Master Mu, don't you want to go back?"

Mu Li raised her head in a daze, the rain on her face trickled down her chin, she blinked vigorously, first she saw the oil-paper umbrella above her head, and then along the handle of the umbrella, she saw Zhan Zhao who was holding the umbrella.Her mind was dull, and she couldn't figure out why Zhan Zhao was standing here, nor why Zhan Zhao held up an umbrella, she just stared blankly at Zhan Zhao's bright red official clothes, the dark red marks on it were blood?

Seeing that Mu Li didn't answer, Zhan Zhao said again: "It's raining a lot, but the shopkeeper Mu didn't get an umbrella?"

Muchen was dumbfounded, trying to think back for a while before nodding.Seeing Mu Li's pale face, Zhan Zhao felt a little weird, but he didn't want to ask too many questions, he just said, "Since that's the case, how about Zhan sending the shopkeeper Mu back to the restaurant?"

Mu Li wanted to speak, but her throat was tight, and she couldn't utter a word, so she nodded and followed Zhan Zhao to Taibai Residence.

Along the way, Muchen walked more and more slowly, and finally stopped, bowed his head and said to Zhan Zhao, "Master Zhan, I'm sorry to trouble you, just send it here, I'm tired, I'll hide from the rain over there for a while before I go." After finishing speaking, without waiting for Zhan Zhao's answer, he moved towards the wall, leaned his head against the wall, and leaned against the wall.

The point is, she's facing the wall.

Zhan Zhao looked at it dumbfoundingly, but finally had no choice, walked over in three steps and two steps, handed the umbrella to Mu Li, and said, "Mu shopkeeper, take the umbrella first, don't stay in the rain for too long, carefully stain it." Wind and cold." After speaking, Muli asked in a very low voice: "Master Zhan, do you... the blood on your clothes belong to Mr. Jiang?"

Zhan Zhao lowered his head to look at the blood stains on his clothes, sighed, and said, "Who knew that such an accident would happen in the courtroom? Mr. Bao also wanted to make a fuss after the interrogation. Who knew Mr. Jiang was determined to die. A certain person can't stop him..."

Mu Li suddenly didn't want to listen anymore, and said in a hoarse voice: "Master Zhan, you go back first, I will be quiet here for a while."

Zhan Zhao was stunned for a moment, put the umbrella into Mu Li's hand, and said, "Hold the umbrella, Zhan will take his leave first." Then he turned and left.

Mu Li looked down at the oil-paper umbrella in his hand, and when he turned his head, he saw Zhan Zhao in a red dress walking farther and farther away in the rain and fog.
