Chapter 38
Qingyue came in front of the two of them, without any further words, he said directly: "Miss San, my lord ordered my subordinates to send you back to the General's Mansion. Now that the capital is not at peace, what the lord means is, let Miss San stay in the General's Mansion, remember not to do it without permission. leave."

Wen Moyan was slightly taken aback. Hearing Qingyue's words, it seemed that Shuang Feichen had no time to talk to her and was caught up in the case.

Wen Moyan subconsciously asked, "Is it the Shuijing female corpse case?"

Qingyue nodded and said: "That's right, it is exactly this case. The Shuijing female corpse we saw today is the sixth corpse. Jingzhao Mansion has found five before. They are all... young girls."

Wen Moyan's face darkened, and Han Chuanyu also frowned.

Han Chuanyu said, "Rong Yi is in charge of matters related to the Criminal Department. It seems that this case will be busy soon. Girl, I will discuss what the old man told you later."

Wen Moyan nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go back to the General's Mansion first, so as not to cause trouble to the prince."

Han Chuanyu nodded, indicating that Wen Moyan could leave.

……

Qingyue took Wen Moyan in a carriage all the way back to General Pingrong's mansion.

Seeing that Qingyue was about to leave, Wen Moyan hurriedly said: "Guard Qingyue, the corpse we saw early this morning was thrown into the well after death. This matter may help the case, please tell me Lord."

Qingyue was slightly startled, and asked in confusion: "How did Miss San know?" They just glanced at it from a distance.

Wen Moyan replied: "If you drowned before your death, then when you are salvaged, your mouth will overflow with foamy water stains, and your chest and abdomen will bulge due to irrigation. Although I only took a look at it from a distance today, I can basically see it." It is concluded that she was thrown down after death. You find a foreman, and I believe that the real cause of death can be investigated."

Qingyue nodded and said: "Yes, this subordinate understands."

After Qingyue left, Wen Moyan also walked into the gate of the General's Mansion.

After working all day, it happened that everyone in the General's Mansion was having dinner in the front hall.

Butler Li opened his mouth to report: "Madam, the third lady is back!"

Everyone subconsciously stopped eating and looked towards the door.

The second lady, Wen Mohou, even put down the bowl and chopsticks, and clasped her hands together.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wen patted Wen Mohou's hand lightly, signaling her to be calm.

Wen Mowan nodded shyly.

A moment later, Wen Moyan strode in. Before Wen Changshan could ask, Mrs. Wen was the first to discover that Wen Moyan was wearing something wrong.

Mrs. Wen asked suspiciously, "Yan'er, why are you wearing maid's clothes?"

The smile on Wen Moyan's face froze, and then she explained: "Uh...I think it looks pretty, my colorful clothes are not as elegant as this skirt."

Mrs. Wen gave Wen Moyan a blank look, and just as she was about to continue her accusations, the eldest lady Wen Mochang said, "Mother, let the third sister eat first, if you have anything to say, let's talk when we are full."

Obviously Wen Mochang was helping Wen Moyan.

However, Wen Mohou didn't intend to let Wen Moyan go easily, she couldn't help asking: "Third sister, uncle punished you to ground your feet, how can you leave the house without authorization? You... What did you go out for?"

Wen Moyan didn't want to offend the heroine in the original novel, so she didn't intend to tell everyone about her relationship with Shuang Feichen.

But right now she can't lie, after all, she was accompanied by Butler Li when she went to Prince Qin's mansion.

After thinking about it for a while, Wen Moyan's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly said, "Second Sister, it doesn't matter what I did when I went out. The important thing is that something big happened in the capital!"

Wen Mo's exaggerated tone instantly attracted the attention of a family of young and old.

Wen Changshan frowned and asked, "What happened? What happened?"

Wen Changshan believed that the news that could come out from Prince Qin's Mansion must be no small matter.

Wen Moyan hurried to Wen Changshan's side, pulled a chair and sat down, and then said with a serious face: "Father, a serial murder occurred in the capital, and the dead are all young girls. The corpses were naked and thrown into the well. hit!"

"Ah?!" Everyone couldn't help but exclaimed.

This Wen Mochang and Wen Mohou are both ladies, just hearing the words "whole body naked/naked", they couldn't help but frown.

Mrs. Wen comforted Wen Mochang, and old Mrs. Wen also took Wen Mohou's hand, signaling her not to be afraid.

And Wen Changshan asked curiously: "Is this really true? Who did you listen to?"

Wen Moyan said nonsense: "I will never take part in falsehoods. Zhang Huaide, Minister of the Ministry of Punishments, personally went to the Qin Palace to report. The sixth victim has been found today. It is said that... so far there is no clue."

Wen Changshan stood up abruptly, looked at Mrs. Wen and said, "Mother, son go out for a while."

Mrs. Wen frowned and said: "Changshan, although this case is bizarre, it is also a matter of the Jingzhao Mansion and the Ministry of Criminal Justice. What does it have to do with your Ministry of War?"

Wen Changshan shook his head and said, "Mother, you don't understand. There are no clues in this case. If the deceased continues to appear, it will reach His Majesty's ears sooner or later. If it reaches His Majesty's ears, then the case is not Jingzhaofu's case. It is not a case of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, but a case of the entire officialdom. Whoever can provide clues and capture the murderer will be a great achievement!"

Old Mrs. Wen nodded, she knew that Wen Changshan was trying his best to sit on the position of Minister of the Ministry of War, and now he had the opportunity to make meritorious service, so naturally he would not miss it.

Mrs. Wen said, "Then be careful."

Mrs. Wen also warned: "Master, that is a cruel bandit, don't confront him head-on."

Wen Changshan sneered and said: "If I can really catch this official, I will just take him down! Hmph!"

After Wen Changshan finished speaking, he strode away without even touching the freshly served food.

Seeing this, Wen Moyan unceremoniously picked up the soup bowl in front of him, and took a sip!
With a snort, everyone looked at her.

Wen Mohou frowned and said, "It's because you still want to drink soup."

Wen Moyan drank a bowl of soup to the end before letting out a long sigh of satisfaction: "Ha—it's delicious! Second sister, don't worry. Although the murderer is cruel, as long as we don't go out, we won't cause trouble."

Mrs. Wen nodded and said: "Yan'er is right. Before the murderer is caught, the women in our house are not allowed to leave the house without authorization. Did you three hear that?"

"Yes, mother!"

"Yes, Auntie!"

The three sisters answered in unison.

……

Because of the murder case, it cast a terrible shadow over everyone's hearts, so that Mrs. Wen and Mrs. Wen had no time to pay attention to Wen Moyan.

Only Wen Mohou still clung to her.

After eating and drinking enough, Wen Moyan wanted to go back to Fuquyuan to rest, but on the way to the end, she met Wen Mowan who was blocking the way.
