"Before the murderer is actually found, I will wrong you to stay in the county magistrate's mansion for three days. After three days, whether the murderer is found or not, I will let you go."
Li Junjian frowned and looked at Shangguan Miaoyan with a firm look.
"Can you find the murderer within three days?"
When Shangguan Miaoyan heard this, a look of deep worry appeared on her beautiful face.
It is simply an impossible task to find the murderer in the Sheriff's Mansion within three days, and he is also a murderer who is good at using poison.
"Otherwise, what can I do? Your Majesty is in danger. If you don't find the murderer and get the antidote within three days, your Majesty will definitely die."
Li Jun smiled bitterly, his face a little helpless and helpless.
"Mr. Lang, you can go to the banquet site and take another look to see if there are any other clues."
Shangguan Miaoyan's beautiful eyes flashed with light, and she reminded Li Jun.
"oh?"
After Shangguan Miaoyan's reminder, Li Jun's expression changed, revealing a look of surprise.
Yes, you can start from where Liu Bei was sitting at the banquet. Since the murderer secretly used the poison, it was impossible not to leave any traces.
"Shangguan Miaoyan, you are not only beautiful, but also so smart. Thank you for reminding me."
Li Jun is falling more and more in love with this mysterious girl with a white veil on her face.
"You don't need to thank me. As long as the murderer can be found as soon as possible, I can clear away the suspicion and get out as soon as possible."
Shangguan Miaoyan lowered her head slightly and said softly,
"No matter what, thank you. Let's go and follow me to the yard to take a look."
Li Jun stood up and strode out of the hall regardless of whether Shangguan Miaoyan agreed or not.
"Aren't you going to lock me up?"
Shangguan Miaoyan frowned and turned to ask Li Jun outside.
Li Jun's gentle voice was heard entering the hall, "What are you imprisoning for? No one can escape from me."
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Miaoyan chuckled a few times through the white gauze and whispered, "What a arrogant person."
Li Jun and Shangguan Miaoyan arrived at the courtyard where the celebration banquet was held.
at this time,
There was no one else in Nuoda's courtyard except the Shu soldiers who were standing guard all around.
Fortunately, Li Jun was alert.
The soldiers were ordered not to let anyone enter the courtyard without his orders, otherwise they would be killed without mercy.
so,
The entire courtyard still maintains its original appearance from the time of the previous celebration banquet.
There are delicious dishes on the table, wine glasses that have not yet been filled, and meals scattered on the floor.
There are also tables and chairs swaying around,
Everything is intact,
Walking among them, in this pitch-black night,
Deadly quiet.
It's a bit scary,
Li Jun could even hear the somewhat rapid breathing of Shangguan Miaoyan next to him.
He looked back and saw Shangguan Miaoyan's eyebrows furrowed and her face extremely frightened.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Li Jun said to Shangguan Miaoyan in a gentle tone.
"Um!"
Shangguan Miaoyan saw Li Jun's eyes as deep as the abyss under the light, revealing incomparable tenderness.
It makes people feel at ease when they see it, and they feel very safe.
The panic and uneasiness in her heart suddenly calmed down a lot.
Seeing that Shangguan Miaoyan had been comforted, Li Jun felt relieved and began to lower his head and search around carefully.
"Shangguan Miaoyan, you can move freely by yourself, remember, as long as you don't leave my sight."
Li Jun lowered his head to search for clues and said to Shangguan Miaoyan in a warm voice,
"No, I'll just stay with you."
Shangguan Miaoyan still seemed a little scared and still followed Li Jun.
Since Shangguan Miaoyan wanted to talk to him, Li Jun didn't say much. He just smiled at her and started searching again.
Li Jun first started searching from the table at the edge.
When I see some strange places, I will pick them up and observe them carefully from time to time.
After confirming that there was no problem, he carefully put it back in place.
A hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes,
Shangguan Miaoyan on the side felt a strange feeling in her heart when she saw Li Jun being so serious.
Although she was wearing a veil, there was still a smile in her eyes.
"I'm bored with the reaction. Let's help you see if there are any other abnormalities."
Shangguan Miaoyan also began to bend her waist next to Li Jun, lowering her head to search.
While the two were searching, Li Jun suddenly asked Shangguan Miaoyan, "Shanggguan Miaoyan, why do you always wear this veil?"
Li Jun originally thought that she was wearing a veil just to perform a dance at the celebration banquet. But now that Liu Bei was assassinated by the murderer's poison, the celebration banquet ended prematurely. Why was this Shangguan Miaoyan still wearing the veil?
For this reason, Li Jun felt very strange and was also very curious about Shangguan Miaoyan.
"Mr. Lang seems to be very interested in my appearance?"
Through the veil, you can hear Shangguan Miaoyan's sultry laughter, and there seems to be a hint of mischief and cunning in her laughter.
"Yes, you guessed it right."
Li Jun did not deny it and answered directly.
"snort!
"I just won't show it to you."
Shangguan Miaoyan raised her eyebrows lightly and hummed. Although she was wearing a veil, her red lips could still be seen pouting through the blurred veil.
You can imagine how cute it looks.
“…”
Li Jun was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Shangguan Miaoyan had such a cute side.
"You won't show it to me, but you think you are an ugly person? So you can't look down on others?"
Li Jun raised the corners of his mouth, deliberately showing a frightened look.
But this provocative move seemed to have no effect on Shangguan Miaoyan. Shangguan Miaoyan laughed a few times and ignored Li Jun.
Seeing that she refused to take off her veil, Li Jun didn't force her, so he lowered his head and started searching again.
During the search, Li Jun also told some modern jokes to Shangguan Miaoyan, which made Shangguan Miaoyan burst into laughter.
the whole night,
It’s all Shangguan Miaoyan’s melodious laughter,
Unknowingly.
The entire courtyard has been searched, but Li Jun and Shangguan Miaoyan still found nothing.
Only the tables on Liu Bei's right were left unchecked.
If no clues are found here, then Li Jun and Shangguan Miaoyan's work tonight will be in vain.
Finding the murderer is even more elusive.
Li Jun squatted down with a hint of nervousness, stretched out his hands, and searched everywhere carefully.
While Li Jun was searching carefully,
Not far away, Shangguan Miaoyan suddenly exclaimed in a sweet voice,
Li Jun stood up quickly, walked to Shangguan Miaoyan's side, and asked with concern, "What happened?"
Shangguan Miaoyan stood up, stretched out her slender hand, pointed forward, and said in horror, "Look what that is?"
Li Jun walked in the direction of Shangguan Miaoyan's finger.
