Yin Feiqiao smiled and said, "I'm here to meet your grandparents. Girl, don't you want to go to Jingzhao Mansion to do some work? Why are you getting up now?"

The sunshine in the summer morning was very bright, illuminating the whole yard.

The master's red face was also very clear. Xin Nuo walked over and sat down beside him, "Master, you look good. Is there anything good you can do?"

If you don't want to answer a question, change the subject.

Yin Fei's smile deepened on the bridge and he pointed at his young disciple.

At this time, the new and old ladies came out with a basket of steamed buns and said with a smile: "Nu'er, go wash up quickly, it's time to eat."

Xin Nuo stuck out her tongue, got up and went to the kitchen, then listened to the conversation outside. Grandpa said, "It doesn't matter. After breakfast, you and I will go to Old Man Fang's place."

Grandma said, "No matter how old you are, you are still so compassionate."

The master laughed without shame and said: "Women are weak in nature. Before they grow up, they are like flowers that can be destroyed by a storm. I have that ability, so naturally I want to help them."

After hearing this, she didn't need to ask any more questions. Her master seemed to be unruly, but in fact he was naturally sympathetic to the weak, which was even more valuable. In other words, what she didn't understand was that the master didn't pretend to like to help the weak, especially the weak. Master is sincerely helping those women who are living in poverty.

When Xinnuo was young, his master was still young and handsome. Eight out of ten women he helped would want to marry him. At that time, Xinnuo was needed to pretend to be a daughter for his master.

But even then, there are quite a few people who are willing to come and be ready-made stepmothers.

For this reason, Master caused a lot of trouble.

But he never finds those women troublesome. Even if he occasionally encounters a few unscrupulous people, he can still find excuses because they are women.

Xinnuo was very curious about Master's bad habits and asked his grandfather. Grandpa said that Master was raised by his mother who endured hardships when he was a child, so he always had a good impression of women.

Xinnuo asked if the master had a good impression of women, why he never married a wife in his life.

Grandma smiled and said: "No matter how generous a woman is, she doesn't like her man to often help other women."

Her master didn't marry a wife, so she was quite free when helping others, and made a lot of friends because of this, and as she got older, Xin Nuo felt that her master was obviously afraid of being alone.

In the midst of his thoughts, Xinnuo washed his face and walked out. The three old people outside had already changed the topic elsewhere.

"Nuo'er, come on," seeing Xin Nuo coming out, Yin Feiqiao waved and said, "Master brought you fried cherries when he came."

The shiny red cherries look especially good on the white porcelain plate. Xinnuo has liked sweet things since she was a child. She was so excited that she sat down and broke off a piece of steamed bun and ate the sweet and soft cherries one by one.

Speaking of which, she eats with a sense of poverty, that is, she has never eaten delicious food before, so she must not be particular about what she eats.

But when the three old people saw that she was eating well, they all smiled and reminded her from time to time: "Eat slowly."

In their opinion, whatever Nuoer likes is good.

While eating, Yin Feiqiao asked, "How are you doing with your senior brother?"

Xinnuo nodded, "It's good. Senior brother doesn't care about the yamen's business. Now I'm like the chief steward of Jingzhao Mansion. The subordinates have to ask me for advice first if they have anything to do."

Yin Feiqiao smiled and said: "It seems that Nuo'er likes your senior brother more?"

"Well," Xinnuo said without any embarrassment, "Second Senior Brother is a bit silly. I met some of Second Senior Brother's friends that day. When they were talking, I heard that I was ugly. This was what you passed on to Second Senior Brother. Right? Let him and his friends think I am an ugly person?"

Yin Feiqiao couldn't help laughing, "Pretty people are not afraid of being called ugly. Is your second senior brother shocked when he sees your true appearance?"

Xinnuo took another bite of cherry buns and shook his head: "No, the second senior brother didn't react at all. He also placed my help on my nemesis. I have been very kind to her over the years. Thinking about it makes me angry. .”

What's going on here?

Hidden flying bridge confuses.

"Second Senior Brother will definitely not tell you such a shameful thing," Xin Nuo curled his lips, thinking that Yuan Chen regarded the person who gave him the agate as his savior, and also regarded this savior as Cheng Xueyao, who had taken great care of her over the years. , all because of this.

Hidden Flying Bridge: - - -

The second apprentice seemed a bit stupid indeed. It seemed that not long after Chen'er started practicing martial arts with him, he redeemed an agate from the pawn shop and then carried it with him like a treasure all day long.

Chen'er looks a lot like him on the surface, and he doesn't hide anything in his heart, but in fact he is very stable. He asked curiously several times, but the child never relaxed.

Unexpectedly, it was the treasure that helped him get through that difficult period.

But then I admitted the wrong person, which was indeed a bit embarrassing.

No wonder his little disciple said he was stupid.

After breakfast, Yin Feiqiao used Qing Gong and left as he had come, avoiding the servants of the Cheng family. Xin Nuo went out with her grandfather.

"It's hot now. I made the rock sugar mung bean soup when I got up in the morning. Nuo'er, please take a cup to Jingzhao Mansion." The old and new lady stood up and said, "Drink it with Mr. Chu."

Xinnuo also had mung bean soup in Jingzhao Mansion, but she has been a good and obedient child since she was a child. Her grandma cooked the mung bean soup herself, so she must bring it with her.

I took out a cup of mung bean soup and was looking for a basket to put it in when a familiar maid walked in the door.

Xinnuo: "Old madam, are you looking for me?"

The servant girl smiled and saluted, and said: "The old lady knows that the girl is busy all day long, so she asked you to be busy. This is for the old slave to invite the new old lady to talk."

What?
Xin Nuo and Grandpa both looked at Grandma.

"When did you become so familiar with Mrs. Cheng?" Xinnuo pulled grandma aside and asked in a low voice.

The new and old lady told her granddaughter not to worry, she wanted to tell the truth, but now was not the occasion, so she just said: "We can chat, I will tell you the details when I have time."

Xinnuo: "Are you sure?"

Didn't Mrs. Cheng bully you intentionally?

In Xin Nuo's opinion, this old lady from the Cheng family is not a good person.

He is the kind of person who becomes more evil-minded as he gets older.

The new and old lady nodded firmly, "Let's go out with your grandpa. Grandma is still boring on weekdays. It's quite pleasant to have an old sister with whom we can chat with these two days."

Mrs. Cheng's maid's mouth twitched. You are happy, but every time you make Mrs. Cheng so angry that she throws a bunch of things to vent her anger.

Seeing that grandma was so sure, Xin Nuo nodded and said, "Well, if Mrs. Cheng deliberately makes things difficult for you, you must tell me and grandpa."

Servant: No wonder the old lady keeps saying that this foreigner is not well-fed.

Xin Nuo took a look at the servant woman and said with a smile, "Take care of my grandma."

The girl was smiling when she spoke, but it made people feel inexplicably afraid. Thinking of the servants who were kicked out after she said a few words last night, the servant was a little scared.

He smiled and agreed: "Second Miss, don't worry."

Xinnuo didn't care how perfunctory her promise was, and called Chunyue, "You go with my grandma."

Chunyue saluted solemnly and said, "I will take a good look at the old lady."

After leaving the Cheng family, the new and old man said to Xin Nuo: "The day you came back, the Cheng family held a marriage recognition banquet. Many people knew that you brought your grandparents here with you. No matter how stupid the Cheng family was, they would not just stay at their house. Take action."

Xinnuo nodded: "I know, just to show my attitude. It's just that grandpa, the grandmother of the Cheng family, I know something. She is very proud of her status as a noble lady, and it is impossible for her to be like a farmer like my grandma. The women had a great time talking."

Is there any reason for this?

The new old man coughed when his granddaughter looked at him. This granddaughter is very clever.

I didn't want to hide my old wife's background from her. I hadn't mentioned it before. It was just because I felt that it was impossible for my family to return to the capital.

Thinking of this, and thinking about it carefully, the old couple hid a lot of things from their granddaughter.

What to do if you feel guilty?
The new old man smiled and said: "Didn't your grandma say that this cannot be explained clearly in one or two hours? I will find an opportunity to tell you in detail."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Yin Feiqiao waiting at the intersection ahead, "I'll go with your master first, you go and do your work."

Xinnuo was even more curious, what could he be hiding from him?Could it be that grandma and Mrs. Cheng are sisters?

impossible.

Xinnuo got on the horse, gave the horse a small spank, and then trotted the horse towards Jingzhao Mansion.

Today's Jingzhao Mansion is quite lively. There are several monks and a group of people who look like they are forging rough cloth standing outside the Yamen Hall.

An older man among the group of people was pulling a fat monk and talking about something. The sound of horse hooves approached. The older man took a look and saw that she was a rich and powerful woman, so he quickly and carefully stepped back.

Even though the position he was standing in did not occupy the mainland.

Xinnuo walked over and stopped at the gate of Jingzhao Mansion.

"New girl." The gatekeeper came forward to lead the horse.

Xinnuo asked: "What do those people do?"

The guard took a look.Said: "That's the monk from Fuyun Temple outside the city. He came to complain, saying that the tenants who farmed the land in the temple were not allowed to rent."

From the decline of Taoism, Buddhism flourished in the Dayue Dynasty. There was a large royal temple in the outer city. Outside the city, there were no less than a hundred temples of various sizes.

These monks may be said to be monks, but they value the mortal world more than the ordinary people. A temple often requires a lot of fields to support the monks.

It can be said that he is a major landowner type in the Dayue Dynasty.

Compared to monks, Xin Nuo prefers Taoist priests. After all, Taoists do not have a strong sense of enclosure. At most, they just set up a temple and a furnace to make elixirs.

What they pursue is immortality, and there is also a source of income from elixirs, which is less fussy in comparison.

Huo Huo is also the kind of person who wants to pursue immortality without giving up wealth.

And alchemy is not completely a lie.

Xinnuo always feels that Taoist alchemy is a relatively beneficial activity. If you want to prove it, isn't tofu discovered during alchemy?
With this in mind, Xin Nuo came to the study room, first picked a yellow loquat, and then walked into the house.

Chu Wei was already there. When he saw her coming, he said: "The case of the female corpse in Luohua Lane is clear. Please prepare. We will start the trial this morning."

Xin Nuo asked: "Then Feng Da admits it."

"I admit it," Chu Wei raised his eyes, with a smile on his face and in a good mood, "and he also revealed a bigger clue."

Xinnuo thought for a while, "Is it related to those mummification cases you asked to investigate before?"

Chu Wei was indeed in a good mood, and immediately said with great appreciation: "Smart."

Xin Nuo smiled and asked, "What did Feng Da say? Why did he kill Ning Cui? Is Liu Pingyuan really as innocent as he said?"

"Why do you have so many questions?" Chu Wei sighed, but there was still a faint smile in his eyes, but he still said simply, "Feng Da said, there has always been a saying at the top of Qianji Sect, with one heart. Turn your thoughts into patterns, draw out the blood of living people, mix it into food or medicine, and give it to patients to cure terminal diseases."

Just as he was talking, Hu Ping's joyful voice came, "Master, we found the murder weapon."

Then the man held a sharp knife wrapped in cotton cloth. The knife had obviously been scrubbed and there was no blood.

If you want to make evidence, you still need to conduct a test.

It's just that Da Yue Chao doesn't seem to have any way to check the disappeared blood stains. If Feng Da is a person who can take advantage of loopholes, it will be troublesome if he recants his confession.

Xinnuo took the knife and put down his worries after looking at it carefully.

The knife was not treated so cleanly, and there seemed to be some rust color in the wood of the handle.

Hu Ping said happily: "It was found under the bed of the Feng family's daughter. When we went to search, Feng's daughter seemed to know that the matter was exposed, and she cried and wanted to plead guilty."

"She was too noisy, so we brought people here too." Xiao Shan, who came in later, added.

Chu Wei nodded, "Yes, let's arrange the people on the east side of the court first."

The impact of this case is not very good, and he does not plan to open a trial.

After the report, Hu Ping and Xiao Shan retreated.

Xin Nuo said: "Daughter of the Feng family really took blood-laced medicine?"

That day at Feng's house, she felt puzzled. The furnishings in Feng's house didn't seem to be very elaborate, but there was an indescribable fragrance.

Now it seems that the spices must have been specially bought to suppress the smell of blood.

Chu Wei said: "It's blood from the apex of the heart, mixed in pills and swallowed. So there is another witness, so you don't have to worry about it not being able to be used as evidence without blood."

Xinnuo wanted to ask where the doctor was who was so bold as to make pills out of blood, but then he thought about it, maybe he didn't know it was human blood.

At this moment, Wang Xuli, who was in charge of taking the case, came in and told the group of monks outside about the complaint.

Chu Wei said: "Ask Zheng Tongzhi to go to trial."

If he could take care of all such daily cases, he wouldn't be able to handle two more.

Wang Xuli then said: "I know that Zheng Tongzhi has always been in charge of such disputes, but Zheng Tongzhi has just left. The leading monk must ask Lord Fu Yin to personally hear the matter."

Xinnuo packed up the evidence and files needed for the Luohua Lane case and clicked her tongue softly when she heard this. She had seen many outstanding monks from Dayue Dynasty in Xiangshui County.

This group of people were accustomed to Otsuki's tolerance towards the monk.
