Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man wearing a blue official uniform hurriedly walked in, followed by several officials wearing soap-colored official uniforms.
The shopkeeper of Tianshenglou came forward and said, "Master, the body is over there."
The middle-aged man frowned and looked at the exceptionally calm lobby, then looked at the corpse lying aside, and couldn't help but said: "They are all dead, but you still have the heart to compete?"
"It's not the person we killed, and I heard that this person was a gangster who bullied the people. His death should be celebrated by setting off firecrackers." Lu Fengze shook his fan and said slowly.
Lu Fengze really dares to say this.
The middle-aged man frowned even more tightly: "Although he is a gangster, he should be dealt with by criminal law."
Lu Fengze snorted and stopped talking.
Li Wanzhou suddenly walked out of the screen tent: "Guan Lin, someone just said that the last place where the deceased appeared was the Qin Family Restaurant in Shuichuan Alley. It just so happened that the Qin Family Restaurant owner Qin Family Restaurant was here. Lin. The promotion officer might as well ask her carefully, maybe there will be clues."
While Li Wanzhou was speaking, Lin Tuiguan saw Marquis Wenchang in the tent.
As soon as Li Wanzhou finished speaking, Lin Tuiguan was about to salute Wenchang Hou. Wenchang Hou waved his hand: "Although I am a judge, I will never favor the murderer."
These words made Qin Xiangxiang seem to be his relative, and he did not hesitate to kill his relatives out of justice.
Official Lin immediately looked at Qin Xiangxiang and said, "Is this the owner of Qin Xiangxiang?" On Qin Xiangxiang's table was the nameplate of Qin's restaurant.
Of course Qin Xiangxiang would not deny it: "I am the right concubine to be promoted to the official position in Linlin."
Lin Tuiguan said: "Someone just testified that the last place where the deceased appeared was the Qin family restaurant. Does the Qin store have any objections?"
"Of course I have objections." Qin Xiangxiang looked calm, "The deceased had been to the Qin family restaurant, and he and his companions wanted to capture the concubine and go to the Zhou family to arrange a secret marriage. The concubine would rather die than obey, but there was nothing The power to fight back. Just when I was desperate, a knight appeared and knocked them down, and I was saved..."
"You are stupid!" Someone suddenly shouted, "What kind of knight? That is obviously your lover! He was very cruel and beat us badly. We just wanted to invite Mr. Qin to Zhou's house to give Mr. Tuesday When you hold the incense stick, you are so cruel to us, and you even threatened us, saying that if you reveal the whereabouts of your sweetheart, you will make us miserable! My lord, her sweetheart must be a thief! No matter how many lives were lost!"
A thin man with a rat head and deer eyes and ragged clothes appeared next to the dead body. He stared at Qin Xiangxiang fiercely, and the fierce light in his eyes seemed to split Qin Xiangxiang into eighteen pieces.
The eldest lady’s love interest? Hongxiu immediately thought of Mu Ting. It turns out that the eldest lady and Mu Langjun have encountered such dangerous things before.
Qin Xiangxiang could die for any crime.
Qin Xiangxiang didn't panic at all: "Don't even think about throwing dirty water on me. You have lost your conscience and done bad things. Even God can't stand it and punish you."
Official Lin raised his hand to signal Qin Xiangxiang to stop talking: "The truth of the matter will be determined by the Kaifeng Mansion. Please ask Shopkeeper Qin to come with us."
In the screen tent, Marquis Wenchang shook his head and showed a proud smile. Fight with him? Even Qin Guanlan was no match for him, let alone a weak and ill-informed young lady.
"Wait a minute." That gentle jade-like voice appeared again. It’s Nangong Wenyue.
The little ladies suddenly became excited.
"Teacher Lin, just now I saw this rat-headed deer-like man wrapping the body of the deceased in a cloth and hiding behind a pillar. Then he took advantage of the confusion to tear off the wrapping cloth. Oh, this man I I also know that they are indeed gangsters who often extort people from the dock area. Many foot shops near the dock have been threatened by them. By the way, the flower girl who unfortunately fell and died on the dock last month did not fall by herself. He fell down, but was knocked unconscious by this man's medicine and pushed to death."
Officer Lin immediately looked at the man and said sternly: "Yes or no?!"
The man hesitated: "Yes, but there is indeed someone hiding in the Qin family restaurant! I can see clearly that the boots that the man is wearing are thick-soled boots that are only worn in bitter cold places. Yes, maybe that person is It’s the Di tribe who sneaked into the capital to do evil things!”
It would be a pity for this man not to write a play. Qin Xiangxiang shook his head. If Mu Ting could avoid being framed like this, he would be furious.
"He identified the knight as a Di tribe based on a pair of thick-soled boots. This person is really talking nonsense."
"Yes, yes, I am naturally afraid of the cold. Even on this spring day, I have to wear thick-soled boots."
"If I go out without wearing thick-soled boots, my mother will definitely nag me, saying that the cold starts from the soles of my feet."
As soon as Nangong Wenyue said these words, they immediately resonated with the young ladies, and they all cited themselves as an example to agree.
Nangong Wenyue continued to say unhurriedly: "Ms. Qin is also a victim. The person who saved her should be rewarded by the Kaifeng Mansion. After all, with your ability, you cannot take care of all the helpless chickens in the capital. The common people who have the strength.”
Qin Xiangxiang listened, did this seem to be a mockery of Kaifeng Mansion? However, children of aristocratic families are children of aristocratic families, and they have no scruples in speaking.
Official Lin's expression was ugly and he did not directly answer Nangong Wenyue. He only ordered his men: "Tie this man up quickly! Take the body back to the Kaifeng government office and put up a list to identify the body!"
The thin man argued hurriedly: "He Biao was really not the one who killed him!"
"Keep the words until you return to Kaifeng Mansion Office!"
As soon as the people from Kaifeng Mansion left with the body of the thin man and He Biao, the shopkeeper of Tianshenglou quickly asked someone to bring water and wash the area just now.
Marquis Wenchang looked at Qin Xiangxiang thoughtfully, and soon whispered to Li Wanzhou: "I have something for you to do."
Li Wanzhou knelt down and listened to Marquis Wenchang's instructions. After a moment, he quietly left Tiansheng Tower.
The second round of competition is about to begin. Of course Qin Xiangxiang saw Marquis Wenchang's little actions, and also saw Li Wanzhou leave with his own eyes.
Marquis Wenchang must have thought that she broke into Marquis Wenchang's house at night, and the person who rescued her was the chivalrous man she called her. Li Wanzhou was definitely going to Shuichu Alley to catch Mu Ting.
Qin Xiangxiang was anxious and a little distracted when he suddenly saw Hongxiu looking at her nervously.
She slowly stirred up her wine and smiled at Hong Xiu: "Don't worry, we will win."
This time it was Zhu Lou and Zhu Miao who asked the question first.
Zhu Miaoxian said with a smile: "I usually enjoy all kinds of meat, but it is best to grill mutton, especially if you like spicy food, please treat me."
Recalling the experience of peeling pine nuts just now, Hongxiu couldn't help but muttered: "We won't let us slaughter the sheep this time."
Hongxiu guessed half of it right.
Four young ladies from spring, summer, autumn and winter came up this time carrying a slaughtered sheep. Although the sheep looked small, about the size of a lamb, in the prosperous capital, buying such a lamb would cost a lot of money.
Tiansheng Tower is quite generous. It's worth the money I paid before.
The shopkeeper of Tianshenglou stepped forward and explained: "The three of you have to cut the mutton roasted by yourself with your own knife."
Qin Xiangxiang saw Li Haochi looking at him with contempt.
She smiled politely.
However, Li Haochi was contemptuous and contemptuous, and he was still quite graceful: "Chen Xiaodong's family, let's let Mr. Qin cut it first. Do you have any comment?"
Chen Guichun has been participating in the competition silently and has not spoken a word. Li Haochi asked him, but he didn't even say anything and just nodded.
Qin Xiangxiang was not polite: "Thank you both."
She took the knife and walked straight to the table. She raised the knife and cut off half of the lamb chops. Then he raised the knife and cut off the fattest part.
Her knife was as fast as cutting leeks.
Li Haochi suddenly regretted it, but he said it in front of everyone, so how could he regret it?
A young lady covered her mouth and smiled: "Ms. Qin is really a face to our young ladies. She is indeed the person Wenyue Langjun likes."
