Liuye ran away happily, and after a while, Maodou came again and asked her where her master was.

Like her, Maodou was very worried about the Meng family, so he waited with her.

After a while, Shen Qi came over with a bowl of pastries, "Want to eat?"

No one paid attention to him, so Shen Qi hugged the plate and squatted aside to enjoy the food.

She didn't know how long she had waited, maybe just for a cup of tea. Suddenly, in the direction Shen Qing left, someone stumbled towards her, shouting that something had happened. When she took a closer look, it was Rong's mother.

Luo Qin's heart skipped a beat and he rushed up to grab Rong's mother's arm, but the other party miraculously avoided her and went straight to the banquet venue in the front yard, shouting: "Kill, kill!"

It was originally a wedding banquet, but the sudden commotion quickly attracted the attention of many people.

"No! Let's go!"

She took the lead and ran towards the Crescent Gate. Maodou had a sullen face, grabbed Shen Qi, and chased after her.

Rong's mother's voice was still behind her, and she didn't know what she said. She seemed to hear someone talking about reporting to the police, someone saying they were looking for a trap, and someone else running towards this side.

Luo Qin was anxious, but after rushing through the Crescent Gate, she realized that there was a fork in the road in front of her, and she had no idea where Shen Qing was.

Maodou said thoughtfully, "Let's look for it one by one. After we find it, no matter what, we will take the girl away first."

Shen Qi still didn't know what happened, "What did you take away? What happened?"

Luo Qin's face was as cold as frost, "Don't be nagging, find the person first and then talk."

The three of them took three different paths. After a while, they unexpectedly came together at one place.

What was in front of me should be a place similar to another courtyard. It was behind a rockery. When I turned around, my eyes suddenly opened up.

A pavilion with four corners, the four sides are covered with bamboo mats, and there is tulle behind the mats, which flutters when the wind blows.

And through the gap in the tulle, they saw Shen Qing.

She stood blankly in the pavilion, her hands hanging by her sides, and there was a person lying on the ground in front of her.

Luo Qin ran closer and saw clearly that the person lying down was actually Meng Daishan. He was hiding on the ground with his back, and there was a dagger stuck in his chest. His eyes were closed tightly, and his lips were pursed and turned purple.

On the other hand, Shen Qing's hands were also stained with blood. At first glance, this scene was so obvious that it didn't even need too much explanation.

Luo Qin panicked when he heard the sounds of running behind him. He rushed forward and grabbed Shen Qing's wrist, saying urgently: "You go first, I'll take care of it here."

Maodou also said: "Yes, let's go first."

Shen Qi was still young and had never seen such a big scene before. He was already frightened. "Master, master, have you killed someone?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Shut your mouth!" Maodou scolded sternly.

The voice was so harsh that Shen Qi almost cried.

Shen Qing looked at the group of people approaching. After the initial panic, he calmed down and said, "Why are we walking? They gave you such a big gift, how can I leave! Maodou, bring me some water, I need to wash my hands." , it’s really disgusting to have his blood on it.”

Seeing her calm look, Maodou felt relieved, "Yes!" Luo Qin let go of his hand, "I'm going to see the dead person."

Shen Qing sneered, "If I said that he was already dead when I came here, would you believe it?"

"Xin, but what's going on with the blood on your hands?"

Shen Qing lowered his head and said unconcernedly: "Oh, I accidentally touched it when I was turning it over just now."

Luo Qin walked to Meng Daishan's body, his eyes stayed on the dagger for a moment, then slowly took it back without saying a word.

At this time, Rong's mother had already led a large group of people and rushed to the pavilion. She pointed at Shen Qing and cursed with great hatred and a bit of fear: "It's her, she killed the master!"

Cao Xuemei pushed away the maid who was supporting her, and stepped forward with a horrified expression. When she saw Meng Daishan's death clearly, she screamed, then her legs went weak and she knelt down, "Master, Master! What happened? What's the matter, Qing girl, how could you kill your uncle! You, how could you do it!"

Aunt Cao held Erya in her arms and stood outside the pavilion, trembling with fear. Erya wanted to go in and take a look, but she held her tight. Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, she left quietly.

On the way, she met Ma Dajiao, who was also here to watch the fun. She grabbed her daughter-in-law and said with a fierce face: "What are you doing here? Why don't you go home quickly!"

Ma Dajiao shook her off and said harshly: "Is that Shen Qing there? I'll go and see what's going on."

Aunt Cao refused to let her go, she was extremely anxious, "She has been involved in a life-threatening lawsuit, and she can't escape this time no matter what. We have to stay away from her. Listen to mother, let's go, let's go home."

Ma Dajiu shook her off arrogantly, "You have to go back on your own! My niece is going to be in trouble, and you, my aunt, only want to hide by yourself. If something happens, can you hide? Hmph!"

After saying that, regardless of how Aunt Cao reacted, she ran towards the pavilion.

Aunt Cao was stomping her feet angrily from behind. Before she could curse, she saw her son running this way again. This time she didn't say anything and didn't let him go.

Lu, Tian Caiyu and others were all ordinary women. They had never seen a murder scene. They were so frightened that they just screamed. Some of them were timid and fainted.

The relatives of the Meng family either cursed Shen Qing happily, or urged the servants in the house to tie up Shen Qing until the officials arrived.

Someone notified Meng Chun that he was late due to bad legs and feet. He heard on the way that his father had been killed and the murderer was Shen Qing. He was almost three years old and had a very bad feeling. He always felt that the Meng family was in danger and on the verge of collapse.

But on second thought, maybe he was overthinking.

But when he arrived at the pavilion and saw his father lying in a pool of blood, he still couldn't believe it, "You, really you killed my father?"

Shen Qing had washed his hands and was sitting on a stone bench on the side. He got a cup of tea from somewhere. It was still steaming and he was about to drink it!
Meng Chun was furious when he saw her attitude. Even if she didn't do it, facing the death of an old man and everyone was still a relative, she acted so calmly, with no trace of panic on her face. It was really too much of a lie.

"Shen Qing! What do you mean? Don't go too far!"

Cao Xuemei stopped crying and looked at her with tears in her eyes, "Girl Qing, it's fine that you resent your aunt, but how could you kill your uncle? Killing requires death, you, why did you do this?"

The people present attacked her and said all kinds of unpleasant things to her. If they were not far away, they would probably drown her with their spittle.

Luo Qin suddenly stopped being anxious and leaned against the pillar, holding his hands and watching the mother and son acting in front of him.

Shen Qing still didn't speak. No matter what Meng Chun and Cao Xuemei scolded her, she remained silent. Of course, she didn't leave either. She sat as steady as a mountain.
