Chapter 440 Xiaoshuang River

Standing in front of the flower garden where the edge of the stone platform could not be seen for a long time, looking at the weeds that grew wildly in front of him, a slight smile appeared on Qin Su's lips.

This is really a good burial place.

While pursing her lips, she took out the small wooden shovel she had prepared earlier from her sleeve, picked a place that was convenient for digging, and shoveled up the soil vigorously.

Xu Shi just had a rain, and the ground was very soft, which also gave Qin Su a good opportunity to act.After tidying up all the things, she looked up at the sky, and estimated that only half an hour had passed.

Raising his sleeves to wipe off his sweat, Qin Su carefully leveled the flower garden again, erasing those unnatural traces and sweeping away the scattered soil particles, and then turned around and set foot on the way home.

Under the beautiful moonlight, the Lili weeds swayed in the wind, still as carefree as before, completely ignorant of human affairs.

The way back was still smooth.

This place was originally the inner courtyard, and Qin Su was guarded by two "strong maids", so the male guards would never spy here again.It can be said that compared to Qin Su's previous night walks, this one is the safest and the least risky one.

He and Ah Zhen left the deserted courtyard by the same route, and then sneaked back to Pianyeju while the moon was still dark. Everyone in the courtyard was still sleeping, and beside Qin Su's couch, Ah Mei slept so much that her saliva almost flowed down.

Qin Su quietly walked around her, turned to the ear room, quietly wiped off her body, changed into clean and comfortable clothes, and then returned to the Xici room.

In the room, the lamp was like a bean, and the light and shadow were faint. Qin Su left Ah Zhen outside to guard the door. There was only sleeping Ah Mei in the room, and the room was quiet.

Qin Su sat on the edge of the couch, a little restless.

What she is most worried about now is Aren.

Now it's been half an hour since I left Aren, and I don't know how she is.

Qin Su tilted her head, and was about to go to the front to have a look at Shi Lou, when suddenly she felt the darkness in front of her eyes, and a figure stood in front of her eyes.

She was taken aback and looked up, only to see Aren standing in front of her
"You're back." Qin Su said in surprise, and then let out a long breath.

She had been holding her heart halfway, fearing that Ah Ren's trip would not go well, but now that she had returned safely, those little anxieties disappeared.

"Girl, I'm sorry, I'm late." Ah Ren still dressed as when he went out, his whole body was clean and fresh, not even a strand of hair was exposed from the kerchief, and he immediately bowed to Qin Su after entering the room. The first half is right and messy.

Qin Su waved his hand, and didn't say goodbye to her, and asked in a low voice, "How was your trip? Did you gain anything?"

There were not many changes on Ah Ren's face, but his tone was a little dull: "The He family has been searched carefully by the people from the government office. I went too late and found nothing of value, but later, I hid When I was in Captain He's study, I saw two people by chance, and one of these two people must be an acquaintance of the girl."

"Oh? Who did you meet?" Qin Su asked, with a trace of curiosity on his face.

Ah Ren then said: "One of the two people called the other 'Mr. Ma' or 'Mr. Ma'."

Qin Su sat up straight all of a sudden.

Sheriff?

The chancellor of Jiangyang County is Xiao Gongwang, the master of the Xiao family!
It was actually Xiao Gongwang and his disciples who came?
In the middle of the night, what did the two Xiao family members go to He's house for?
"Do you know why the two of them appeared in He's house?" Qin Su asked in a sullen voice, his face suddenly congealed.

"Mr. Xiao said that he came here at the order of the sheriff." Aren said, his voice still very steady, "He said that the sheriff had considered it for several days and finally ordered him to deal with this matter. He couldn't refuse. , He also said that this matter is difficult, and he is also in a state of desperation now. He also said that this case is too difficult to solve. The murderer did not even leave a footprint, so he has no clue. Fortunately, the state capital will send someone over in a few days. When the time comes, he will You have to report the truth and wait.”

Qin Su listened attentively and nodded slightly.

Xiao Gongwang is also considered to be somewhat capable, and he is also a famous family in the county. He was sent by the governor of Jiangyang to hand over the officials of Yizhou Prefecture, that is to say, he took a fancy to his two strengths.

Thinking about it, Qin Su asked softly, "What else did they say?"

Ah Ren bowed, and said in a very soft voice: "It's a coincidence that the two of them gradually talked about the things they found from the He family because they were discussing the case of the He family. The letter found in Wei's study room was enough to convict the He family of treason. It is a good thing that his whole family was slaughtered, otherwise more clansmen would be involved. Then he said a word—— — 'Frost River Reversal'."

Qin Su's heart sank suddenly, but her head suddenly lifted up.

Frost River Rebellion?
Could it be... this is the "crime of the Frost River" that Ah Yan said?
One crime and one rebellion, the two have almost the same meaning.

"What did Xiao Gongwang say about 'Frost River's Rebellion'?" Qin Su immediately asked, his voice extremely cold.

At this time, Ah Ren was not in a hurry to answer Qin Su's words, but suddenly asked her a question: "Madam, do you know what the word 'Shuanghe' is?"

Qin Su was startled, then shook his head.

It was because she didn't know which two words they were, so she could only guess wildly, so she hardly had a good night's sleep along the way, and she was dizzy all day long.

Aren's expression was very stable, and he continued: "Before tonight, like the girl, I thought that the word Shuanghe meant the frost of hoarfrost and the river of long rivers. However, after listening to Mr. Xiao and Mr. Ma After the conversation, I found out that we made a mistake. These two words are actually 'shuang' for good things in pairs, and 'he' for grain."

Shuanghe's rebellion, or Shuanghe's crime.

It turned out to be these two words.

Qin Su nodded slowly, but the question in his heart was still unresolved, so he raised his eyes to Aren and asked, "Then what exactly does 'Shuanghe's Rebellion' refer to, do you know?"

Ah Ren bowed and said: "Ms. Xiao, when the county minister first mentioned Shuanghe's rebellion, he was also full of doubts. That Mr. Ma said that he didn't quite understand why he was in the treason letter of Captain He. , there will be words like "Shuanghe has three points in side affairs". Later, the two of them said a lot of things, all of which were related to the murder of the He family, but there was not much news that came out. Apparently, Mr. Xiao knew about it. Very limited. However, what Mr. Ma said later made me feel a little...deep."

When she said this, she paused, glanced at Qin Su, and then continued: "That Mr. Ma said that he thought about it for several nights, and finally remembered that the word 'Shuanghe' is related to Jiangyang County. Two famous families can match up."

"Famous family?" Qin Suwei was a little startled, and then there was a bang in her mind, like a thunder on the ground, making her scalp numb.

She raised her head suddenly, and the determination flashed in her eyes.

Shuanghe... a famous family...

Among the Qin surnames, there is a word "He"!

And another surname that can be called a famous family with "He" in the surname is the Cheng family!
