Chapter 405 Who killed him?
On the stage, the sound of piano sounded.
Several graceful women wearing tulle walked out from the backstage and began to dance to the sound of the piano.
There was a lot of cheers from the audience.
Someone was shouting: "Miss Tang, let Miss Huayue come out and meet us."
Someone echoed.
Some people laughed: "You are not qualified."
Luo Qingzhou didn't dare to stand on the stand, so he turned his head and looked out the window.
It was already evening, and the setting sun was slightly drunk.
The lake reflects the sunset and sparkles.
The following boat was still swaying not far away.
Behind that small boat, there was another small boat, and there was a woman standing on the bow, who looked quite familiar.
"Princess, that person seems to be Aunt Mu."
Luo Qingzhou said suddenly.
Nangong Meijiao turned her head, glanced out the window, and suddenly looked at him again and said, "Your eyesight is so good? I can't even see clearly."
Luo Qingzhou paused for a moment, still looking outside, and said calmly: "I have had good eyesight since I was a child, maybe I am born with it. Just like when I read a book, I can remember it after reading it a few times."
Nangong Meijiao stared at him a few more times, then looked at the following boat outside the window and said, "They seem to be unwilling to give up. What do you think about letting them taste lime after dark?" ?”
Luo Qingzhou looked at her and said, "Is it dangerous if the princess acts alone?"
Nangong Meijiao also looked at him and said, "Didn't I give you a bag of lime? You can go with me then."
The two looked at each other.
Luo Qingzhou said: "I won't lie."
Nangong Meijiao said calmly: "It's okay, I can just practice tonight. With me guiding you, you should learn it soon."
Luo Qingzhou avoided his gaze and looked outside.
Nangong Meijiao still stared at him.
At this time, Tang Yan'er suddenly walked over with a smile on her face and said, "Mr. Luo, can you come with me to the backstage?"
Luo Qingzhou looked at her, but before he spoke, Nangong Meijiao suddenly said: "I wrote that poem, should I go?"
Tang Yan'er smiled and said, "Miss Gong, sit down for a while. I have a girl there who has admired Young Master Luo for a long time. She just learned that Young Master Luo is on board and wants to meet Young Master Luo."
Nangong Meijiao looked at someone opposite and asked, "Do you want to go?"
Luo Qingzhou apologized to Tang Yan'er and said, "Miss Tang, I won't go. My wife is very strict and doesn't let me see strange women. You also know that I am a son-in-law and I can't help myself."
As soon as these words came out, Tang Yan'er was stunned for a moment, glanced at the girl opposite him, and said, "Isn't Mr. Luo's wife not here?"
Luo Qingzhou pursed his lips towards the opposite side: "She is my wife's best friend."
Tang Yan'er was slightly startled, but she suddenly understood. She looked at Nangong Meijiao and said with a smile: "Miss Gong, don't worry, I'm just taking Mr. Luo to talk, and I will never do anything out of the ordinary."
Nangong Meijiao said calmly: "You don't need to tell me, it has nothing to do with me. Just ask him if he wants to go."
Tang Yan'er said: "Master Luo..."
"I do not want to."
Luo Qingzhou refused directly and said: "Sorry, Miss Tang."
Tang Yan'er frowned slightly, glanced at the two of them again, and said with a smile, "Then I'll reply."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
After she walked away, Luo Qingzhou lowered his head and looked under the table.
The two long legs under the purple skirt have been stretched to his side, and the two feet are stepping on his feet.
Luo Qingzhou said nothing, lowered his head and watched motionless.
After a while.
Nangong Meijiao finally couldn't help but said: "What are you looking at?"
Luo Qingzhou said: "Look at the feet."
"abnormal!"
Nangong Meijiao's feet immediately retracted and were hidden under her skirt, looming, and her eyes glared at him.
Luo Qingzhou looked up at her and said, "Princess, I'm looking at my feet. Is this called perversion?"
Nangong Meijiao narrowed her eyes and looked at him dangerously.
Luo Qingzhou turned to look outside and said, "Aunt Mu is here. I wonder if she has found the stalker on the small boat."
Nangong Meijiao glanced outside and frowned, with a hint of confusion on her face: "I asked her to wait on the shore, why did she come here?"
Then he stood up and said, "I'll go out and take a look."
After taking a few steps, she suddenly turned her head to look at him and said coldly: "Luo Qingzhou, if I come back later and find you are not here, where do you think the more than fifty bags of lime on me will be scattered?"
After saying that, he gave him a warning look, walked away quickly with his long legs.
Luo Qingzhou watched her walk out of the cabin, reached out and took out the handkerchief from her arms, and carefully recalled her expression and words, not only secretly asked: Could it be that she has already begun to doubt? Was it just a test?
Just as he was thinking about it, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind him.
He put away the handkerchief, picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and looked out the window.
But suddenly, he felt a chill coming from behind him, as if something was invading his body and peering into his soul.
He remained calm and continued to look out the window.
The noisy voices in the hall suddenly became eerily quiet.
A gust of fragrant wind suddenly came.
Immediately, a young girl stood in front of him and said softly: "The slave Huayue has met Mr. Luo."
The voice is gentle and pleasant.
Luo Qingzhou turned around and saw that the girl in front of him was wearing a pink dress and looked quite delicate. She was looking at him with bright eyes.
But Luo Qingzhou didn't look at her again and looked behind her.
A maid in green clothes stood behind her. When she saw his eyes, she looked at him and immediately lowered her head, looking timid.
However, Luo Qingzhou felt an inexplicable creepy feeling.
"Master Luo, can Hua Yue sit down?"
The girl in pink skirt said softly.
Luo Qingzhou looked at her and said: "Miss Huayue, my lady will be here shortly. If you have anything to say, you can just say it."
At this time, angry accusations suddenly came from the hall.
"Who is that person? Miss Huayue took the initiative to see him, but he sat there without moving."
"Even those talented people in Jiangnan don't have such big arrogance, right?"
"Girl Painting the Moon is indeed so beautiful. I finally got a glimpse of her beauty today, and I still got the glory of that boy. Otherwise, Girl Painting the Moon probably wouldn't have come out..."
Hua Yue looked at the handsome young man in front of her, took out the rice paper in her hand and said, "Master Luo, this little poem just now was probably written by him, right?"
Luo Qingzhou said: "It was written by my young lady."
Huayue smiled softly, her brows full of charm, and said softly: "Master, can you move to the study of the slave family? The slave family wants to talk to the master."
When everyone else in the hall heard this, their eyes were red, their faces full of envy, jealousy, and hatred, and they wanted to get up immediately and go in his place.
Luo Qingzhou stood up directly and said, "Sorry, I have to go out to accompany my young lady."
After saying that, he immediately left quickly and walked out of the cabin, ignoring the stunned looks of the girl and others in front of him.
Aunt Mu's boat has already approached the painting boat.
Nangong Meijiao jumped up and was talking quietly to Aunt Mu.
When Luo Qingzhou walked to the side of the ship, Nangong Meijiao looked at him and asked in surprise: "What are you doing out here?"
Luo Qingzhou quickly whispered: "Princess, follow me, I want to jump up."
After that, he jumped directly towards the boat.
Nangong Meijiao was stunned for a moment, and when she was about to reach out to pick it up, she suddenly retracted her hand.
"boom!"
Luo Qingzhou landed on the boat, but suddenly stumbled forward, and was about to fall down in the cabin, when Aunt Mu grabbed him.
After Luo Qingzhou stood firm, he quickly said with a frightened expression: "Thank you Aunt Mu."
Nangong Meijiao said with suspicion on her face: "Luo Qingzhou, why are you panicking? Have you seen a ghost?"
Before Luo Qingzhou could say anything, Hua Yue had already chased him out. He stood at the side of the ship and said with tears in his eyes: "Master Luo, Hua Yue just wants to talk to you. I have no other ulterior motives. This is a small thing." Are you unwilling to satisfy Hua Yue’s request?"
Luo Qingzhou cupped his hands and said: "Girl Huayue, I have a wife, so I can't get too close to other women. I will always arouse criticism. I'm sorry."
He glanced at the maid in green behind her and whispered to Aunt Mu next to her: "Aunt Mu, let the boatman go."
Aunt Mu glanced at him and then at her young lady.
Nangong Meijiao said with a cold face: "Let's go."
Aunt Mu immediately went over and gave instructions to the boatman.
The boatman agreed, holding his pennies, and the boat began to retreat and turn its bow.
Luo Qingzhou got directly into the cabin.
Nangong Meijiao took another look at the charming woman standing on the side of the ship, turned around and entered the cabin, and said sarcastically: "Why are you so self-conscious today?"
Luo Qingzhou glanced outside and said, "She invited me to her room to talk. I'm scared."
As soon as these words came out, Nangong Meijiao couldn't help but laugh, and then snorted coldly: "What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that people will eat you?"
Even Aunt Mu next to her laughed.
Luo Qingzhou said no more.
Nangong Meijiao sneered: "I'm just talking to you, Luo Qingzhou, but I'm afraid you're overthinking it. No matter how talented you are, people may not agree to you."
Luo Qingzhou looked at her and said, "Princess Princess, how about I go up again?"
Nangong Meijiao raised her eyebrows and said, "You can try it."
Luo Qingzhou said no more, looking at the cyan figure gradually moving away from the side of the ship, the hairs still standing on his back.
At this time, the sunset was almost setting.
The light on the lake began to dim.
The boat turned around and headed towards the shore where it came from.
Aunt Mu glanced behind and whispered: "Miss, they are still following you, do you want to deal with them?"
Nangong Meijiao said: "They still don't know what happened on the shore, right?"
Aunt Mu said: "I probably don't know, otherwise I would have gone back long ago."
Luo Qingzhou asked curiously: "What happened on the shore?"
Nangong Meijiao glanced at him and said: "Actually, there are three people following us. One of them is the person who played football with us in the palace in the morning. He was on Zhang Yaner's team, but he was killed on the shore just now. ”
Luo Qingzhou's face was full of surprise: "Who killed him?"
Then she realized what she was doing, looked at the woman opposite and said, "Is it Aunt Mu?"
Aunt Mu shook her head and said solemnly: "I don't know who killed him. After I found him, I was watching him across the road. Unexpectedly, he suddenly lost his head and fell to the ground. I didn't know it at all. I saw the murderer and no weapon.”
Luo Qingzhou thought for a moment and said, "Could there be a warrior standing far away using a hidden weapon?"
Nangong Meijiao glanced at him.
Aunt Mu said: "I think so too. But the other party is a warrior. I don't know what kind of hidden weapon can cut off his head without anyone noticing."
Luo Qingzhou said: "I once read a martial arts book. There is a hidden weapon in it that is an extremely sharp silk thread. It is transparent and hard to see. It kills people invisible. As long as the speed is fast enough, it is as sharp as a sword and can cut people's heads with ease."
Aunt Mu looked at him and said: "Master Luo knows a lot. But warriors are not ordinary people. Their skin, muscles and bones have very strong defenses. I'm afraid silk threads can't do it."
Luo Qingzhou said "Oh" and stopped talking nonsense.
Nangong Meijiao looked at him for a while and said: "Luo Qingzhou, think about how to get rid of the pursuers behind you. You can't kill these two people yet. Let them go back and tell Gong Qingzhou about the death of the man on the shore." Maybe you can keep her quiet for a while, because that person died very strangely."
Luo Qingzhou glanced at the shore and said: "In fact, there is no need to think of another way. When they go to the shore and see the body of the man, they will naturally stop following him."
Nangong Meijiao raised her head and looked at the shore.
Although a long time had passed, the shore was still crowded with people, and the body with dismembered heads seemed to still be lying there.
Officials from the government have arrived and are still conducting autopsies and investigating the scene.
The boat soon came to the shore.
The three people went ashore and walked behind the crowd of onlookers. They looked inside and saw blood all over the ground. The body had been covered with white cloth.
Everything within a radius of twenty meters has been cleared and blocked.
People from the government were searching for clues everywhere, and someone climbed up the willow tree nearby to check carefully.
The two men who were following them didn't know what was going on. After landing, they got behind the crowd and stretched their necks to watch the excitement.
When Wu Zuo opened the white cloth and revealed a head with wide eyes and blood, the two men were shocked and their faces turned pale with fear.
"Let's go."
Nangong Meijiao glanced at the two of them, turned around and walked to the other side of the road.
The three of them got into the carriage and left quickly.
When the two men reacted, the carriage had disappeared into the busy street.
The carriage quickly arrived at Maple Leaf Alley, but did not enter.
Nangong Meijiao took out a porcelain bottle and handed it to Luo Qingzhou, with a solemn expression: "This is the Xuantian Jade Girl Tree Morning Dew given by Xiaorui. Take it back, I won't go there. My carriage It's too conspicuous. You have to go back to the inner city quickly. You can't run around these days. Go back and tell Wei Mo exactly what happened today and ask everyone not to go out for the time being. I will send someone to check the situation. If there is any news , I will come and inform you."
Luo Qingzhou took the porcelain vase and said, "Thank you very much, Princess."
Just as he was about to go down, Nangong Meijiao suddenly said: "Practice what I teach you at home, and I will come to check you out then."
Luo Qingzhou nodded, got off the carriage, glanced around, and quickly entered the alley.
On the carriage, the curtains were opened.
Nangong Meijiao was in the carriage, looking at his back quietly, and suddenly said: "Aunt Mu, Luo Qingzhou took a shower in the palace today, where are the dirty clothes he changed out of?"
Aunt Mu was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and said: "It must have been thrown away by the palace maid."
Nangong Meijiao said no more.
Aunt Mu glanced at her and said, "What are you suspecting, young lady?"
Nangong Meijiao looked at the empty alley, was silent for a while, and murmured: "I don't know either."
Aunt Mu glanced at the darkening sky and said, "Miss, it's time to go."
Nangong Meijiao lowered the curtains and said, "Let's go."
The carriage slowly drove away from the alley.
A moment later, Nangong Meijiao's voice suddenly came from the carriage: "Aunt Mu, go to the pharmacy later."
Aunt Mu was slightly startled when she heard this, and asked doubtfully: "What medicine do you want to buy, young lady?"
Nangong Meijiao said: "Poison powder, drug."
Then he added: "Go to the grocery store again. I want to buy a gas mask and some black iron wire."
Aunt Mu was stunned for a moment and said: "Miss, buy these..."
"Don't worry, I won't use it on ordinary people. These are hidden weapons that take people's lives. I know the severity."
"Miss, do you really believe what that guy said? Can a person's head be removed with silk thread?"
There was silence in the carriage.
Then he said: "Letter."
