Chapter 19
In the middle of the night, the Fuliang yamen was completely quiet.

In the most spacious room at the back of the official building, there was still someone awake.The man's eyebrows are picturesque, and there are thousands of solemn and gorgeous eyes in his raised peach eyes, which can't be concealed even by the cold night.He looked at the secret letter in his hand by the faint candlelight, his face was solemn and dignified, and the corners of his tightly pursed lips vividly divided his playful and romantic face into another kind of resolute and decisive style.

The bewitching smile faded away, such a deep and dignified man was Duan Sinan, the favorite minister of the new emperor Yuan Wu who was familiar with him.

"Is this all the things you found about Xue Ningbi?" At the end, he put down the letter in his hand and said abruptly.

There was a respectful male voice in the dark of this quiet room, without any waves in his tone: "Xue Ningbi's parents are servants of the Zhou family, and they raised a beautiful daughter. It is rare to see pampered in a deep boudoir. This year, when she was sent to the Zhou Mansion in the beginning of spring this year, she lifted up her aunt, and later she was favored, and when the mistress left, she covered the sky with one hand."

"This year's spring..." Duan Sinan put the letter in his hand on the candle and burned it slowly, chewing these words carefully, "Do you think this time is particularly suspicious?"

The humane said, "The emperor had just ascended the throne in the first month, so he asked you to look for the heir of the former abolished prince. If you want to say that she entered the mansion, it was just a few days after the first month... My son, you are suspicious, she was sent by the empress of?"

Duan Sinan sneered, and gently brushed off the ashes on his fingertips: "It's not doubt, but affirmation. I have known the queen for so long, she has a strong desire for control, and she values ​​power more than life. Now the emperor intends to find the former deposed prince." Heir, she is worried that her son will not get the throne in the future, and it is not unreasonable to kill the orphan of the deposed prince in order to get ahead of us."

"But at that time, the emperor made a secret decree, how did the empress know that the emperor intends to find the heir of the former abolished prince?" The man hesitated for a moment and asked.

The coldness on Duan Sinan's body increased sharply, "What else can I do? Naturally, there are unclean people around my son. Just keep an eye on Prince Liang's mansion, and report to me immediately if anyone is about to make trouble!"

"Yes." There seemed to be a gust of wind blowing in the dark, and the shadow of the candle shook and shone brightly again.

Duan Sinan's face was obscured by the candlelight.His eyes were hidden in the dark, and he narrowed his eyes slightly.Zhou Yanqing was an aide of the former crown prince back then. If there hadn't been the Eastern Palace incident, his eldest daughter Zhou Tingting would have already been brought into the prince's mansion to become a concubine.Even the queen has found out about this matter, and she can start from here. It seems that her power should not be underestimated.

Perhaps, the death of the Zhang family and the death of the Liao family is also inseparable from the lord of the Six Palaces?

After all, it is different from before.Now she can be so ruthless and ruthless.

Duan Sinan let out a long sigh.

On the second day, Yayoi patrolled Fuliang Street as usual.

She has been investigating the case of the Zhou Mansion for a long time, and she has neglected the law and order on the street.Now the suspect Xue Ningbi was almost forced to death by her, and the victim Zhou Yanyan couldn't explain why, and the case was at an impasse. Only then did she realize that she hadn't caught the thief for a long time.

After so long, the law and order in Fuliang County is still very good.One morning passed, the thief was not caught, but in Dongshi, he saw his old acquaintance Jiang Da molesting a good woman again.

The little lady was forced into a narrow alley by him, she wanted to scream but didn't dare to scream, she really cried like pear blossoms with rain.Seeing Yayoi approaching at a glance, she shouted excitedly: "Boss Shen!" When Jiang Da turned his head and saw Yayoi, he was so frightened that he jumped the wall and ran away from the alley.

Yayoi walked a few steps closer, but found that the little lady was actually Holly.

"Holly? What are you doing here?"

"Catcher Shen, I went out of the house to visit my mother today, and suddenly thought of something, so I hurried to go to the yamen to tell you." Dongqing cried out of breath, "No, I didn't expect..."

"Don't worry, speak slowly." Yayoi helped her to sit down slowly, and asked, "Did something happen to you when you came home on the day your young lady had an accident?"

"Yes." Holly nodded with tears in her eyes, "This matter is related to Aunt Xue."

Yayoi didn't show anything on her face, but her heart skipped a beat, "Aunt Xue?"

"On the day when Miss' accident happened, I went out to see my mother. On the way, I heard two people talking quietly behind the rockery," she hesitated. "I didn't see the face, but I recognized the woman's voice as Aunt Xue. , the man...is a stranger."

Yayoi said coldly, "What are they talking about?"

Holly shook her head, "I'm far away, and I can't hear clearly. I only heard a few sporadic words, 'wait a minute', 'almost' and so on..."

Yayoi saw that she still had doubts on her face, so she knew that she still had something to hide, "What else?"

"Also, and," Dongqing seemed to have finally made up her mind, "and Aunt Xue said, 'Don't worry about your mother'."

Ma'am, don't worry? !

Yayoi was shocked.How did the discord in the back house of such a small county involve the women in the deep palace in the Forbidden City?

Although Emperor Wu of the Yuan Dynasty came to the throne not long ago, his harem was not yet full, and there were only five people who were entrusted with the throne.But among these five women, which one is not from an amazing family background and powerful?
Now it sounds like she has something to do with the merchant's aunt in Little Fuliang County?

Dongqing continued, "I heard it, and I was scared, thinking that it's better for our servants to know less about this kind of thing, so I left in a hurry... When I was flustered, I tripped over a gravel, and it seemed that something fell When the item came out, I was in a hurry to leave, so I didn't pick it up..."

Yayoi's heart trembled, "What?"

"Yes, it's the brand name Miss Zhou bought in the shop..." Dongqing lowered her head in fear and murmured.

No wonder!I see!

Yayoi felt suddenly enlightened, and all the doubts were solved!
Zhou Yanyan's name was engraved in black and white on the nameplate. Xue Ningbi thought that the person who eavesdropped was Zhou Yanyan, so she tried to silence her that night!

Therefore, her malicious intent was not to control the Zhou family's backyard at all, but to think that Zhou Yanyan knew her secret and had no choice but to get rid of her!

How shocking is this secret?In order to protect her, she even used all means to set up a puzzle, trying to kill Zhou Yanyan? !
The mystery of Zhou Yanyan's falling from the building has just been solved, but another suspicion arises spontaneously.Why did the empress in the forbidden palace have anything to do with her again?What is her purpose in entering Zhou's house?Yayoi just felt more and more shocked.She raised her head and looked at the sky. The sky in Fuliang County in early autumn was very clear, but under this sunny day, there was some huge conspiracy brewing.

Holly on the side finally stopped sobbing slowly.She looked at Yayoi cautiously, and asked: "Boss Shen, is it true that I have harmed my young lady?"

"No." Yayoi shook her head, "Go back and don't tell anyone."

Her eyes gradually darkened, remembering what happened to Duan Sinan last night.It seemed that she was going back to the Yamen to see him again.

 Sorry to be late again today/(ㄒoㄒ)/~ I have been sick recently, my stomach is bad, I am so tired that I have to make porridge for myself and cry ╮(╯▽╰)╭
