The cool white moonlight shines on the grass, and the horse's hooves splash the fragrance of the grass. The night is so quiet and peaceful.
Cui Yuanzao stared at the side face of the girl in front of him. Her skin was like gelatin, which could be broken with a blow, and even the thin hair on her temples jumped out happily.
Cui Yuanzao thought of a sentence, the beauty of carelessness is touching.
Feeling a little uncomfortable, Cui Yuanzao turned his face to the unknown lake on the roadside.
However, the moonlight illuminated their close reflections so clearly that Cui Yuanzao closed his eyes.
Lan Yin rode forward. Although the person behind didn't say a word, she could still feel his breath.
Lan Yin rarely felt embarrassed due to the difference between men and women, but now she clearly felt uncomfortable, twisted slightly and coughed.
"Are you cold?" Cui Yuanzao said suddenly.
"No." Lan Yin replied quickly. After thinking about it, she felt that it was wrong and her attitude was a bit bad.
Clearing her throat, she ran out of words and asked: "That day, after I left, how was the progress of Wang Shang's case? Has the murderer been found?"
Lan Yin twisted on the horse, which made Cui Yuanzao feel uncomfortable, and he slightly distanced himself from her.
"The murderer was not found. The child's testimony and the time of death found in the autopsy pointed to the monk. But no one saw the monk's true appearance. I asked the child to go to Zhao Jinggong Temple to compare his back, but he couldn't find it. Besides, in those days, bad guys sealed off Zhao Jinggong Temple, and they really couldn’t get out.”
Cui Yuanzao didn't know why he kept talking so much, but after talking about this call, he felt a little normal.
"That means the real culprit who killed Lu Qian hasn't been found yet?"
"Dali Temple has concluded the case. The real culprit who killed Lu Qian is Wang Shang."
"Okay, then Wang Shang killed him, but who killed Wang Shang? Where did the concave and convex mirror come from? Dali Temple will not investigate?" Lan Yin said dissatisfied.
"Because there is no perpetrator in Wang Shang's case, it will be settled."
"Oh, is this how your Dali Temple handles cases?"
"There are many things that I can't do if I want to. For example, the origin of the concave-convex mirror must involve the palace, and the interests are entangled. Why offend many people for the sake of a prince?"
If it were originally, Cui Yuanzao would not have explained much to Lan Yin, but now he somehow used Li Shaoqing's tactics to persuade Lan Yin, as if Lan Yin agreed to this rhetoric, he would be saved.
"Fart, this is incompetence, bullying the weak and fearing the strong." Since Lan Yin's identity was completely exposed, she no longer wanted to suppress her true nature, and started to speak dirty words.
Cui Yuanzao didn't take it seriously, but laughed out loud. Aren't these the words he wanted to say but didn't say? There is a frankness in Lan Yin that he has long lost due to the worldly affairs.
"Then help me." Cui Yuanzao suddenly blurted out, and he was startled.
Lan Yin actually thought that if Dali Temple closed the Lu Qian case, she would no longer be suspected, and she would not need to accompany Cui Yuanzao.
And since Cui Yuanzao saved Guo Jiao this time, the Guo family will probably not force him to marry Guo Jiao, so there is no point for her to play Madam Yang.
Moreover, her sudden disappearance this time was perfect for him. He didn't even have to make excuses, and he could get rid of the shackles of the engagement.
In fact, they can go their separate ways.
"I, I," Lan Yin couldn't continue, "give me the antidote to the soul-locking incense first."
Does she want to leave?
Cui Yuanzao slowly closed his eyes and opened them again, and said coldly: "It's impossible. I suspect that you are related to Yang Chun's murder case."
"Are you sick? Why should I kill him?" Lan Yin said angrily.
"I didn't say you killed him, but you have Yang Rong's jade pendant. How do you explain it? I need you to help me investigate." Cui Yuanzao said coldly.
God knows, before today, he had never thought of redressing the injustice of his former father-in-law.
"I'm just a bad guy. I get into trouble when I save people. I saved Lu Qian and became a murderer. I saved Yang Rong, but she died in the end and is still in trouble. No wonder the master didn't let me go down the mountain."
Lan Yin whipped her riding whip angrily, and the horse neighed and ran away, causing Cui Yuanzao to hug Lan Yin's waist.
"Why are you hugging me? I can't run away. Isn't your damn soul-locking incense locking me?"
Lan Yin thought about it, don't blame her for being unjust if he was unkind. He wanted her to accompany him in investigating the unmarried woman's unjust case, so she used his identity to help her investigate Aye's unjust case that year!
This can be regarded as getting money in exchange for money, so it’s not a loss.
Cui Yuanzao listened to Lan Yin's messy venting and knew that she probably agreed to his proposal.
"Don't worry, your brother can't do anything to you in Chang'an City!" Cui Yuanzao promised, "Why did you leave home?"
Lan Yin didn't want to reveal too much information, so she just said: "We are brothers and sisters. I just wanted to go down the mountain to see more, but the master didn't allow it, so he sent his brother to arrest me."
"Well, I'm here." Cui Yuanzao said with a slight smile.
"I forgot to tell you that the people my senior brother killed might be soldiers from Zhaoyi Town."
"What?" Cui Yuanzao asked in surprise, "Did you survive?"
"My senior brother has always spared no effort. You have offended him this time, think about it yourself." Lan Yin gloated.
Cui Yuanzao's mind was not on this at all, "How do you know these people are soldiers from Zhaoyi Town?"
"You also know how good my ears are. I was hiding in a tree and heard clearly. They seemed to be meeting someone important, and they might be someone from the palace, because I bumped into them by mistake. They thought the people in the palace were unreliable and betrayed them.”
"What's wrong with you? Why don't you speak? Is there any problem?" Seeing Cui Yuanzao not speaking, Lan Yin couldn't help but asked curiously.
"It doesn't make sense to me. Why are they performing in the West Market? What kind of changes are they making? And they don't live in Chang'an City, so why are they traveling to the wilderness every day? Do you know where the abandoned inn is closest?"
"where?"
"Xiangji Temple."
"A temple again?"
"You may also find it strange. Recently, we seem to have an indissoluble bond with temples and monks." Cui Yuanzao looked at the stars in the sky and fell into deep thought.
"By the way, those people also robbed many young girls."
"Girls? Did you hurt them?"
"Well," Lan Yin felt quite embarrassed, "it's just that kind of thing anyway."
"Cough cough cough." Cui Yuanzao coughed several times and stopped talking.
The awkward silence seemed to freeze the air.
"Tell me, are they the fox demon?" In order to break the embarrassment, Lan Yin started to talk nonsense.
The rising sun is rising in the east, and the sky is gradually glowing with rosy morning glow. With the sound of horse hooves, the majestic Chang'an City gradually shows its majestic outline, especially the Daming Palace on Longshou Plain. That touch of gold seems to dazzle travelers on pilgrimage. heart of.
"Maybe." Cui Yuanzao looked at the clouds on the horizon and said softly, as if he was afraid of disturbing the sleeping giant.
