Feng Qing was not so bad as to be insane, but he was not ashamed to be called the Demon King. When he treated Tu Da's death, he just said, "If you die, you'll die." He clearly didn't take human life too seriously.
This is due to the fact that he was overly pampered since he was a child, and because his life span is limited, he is naturally hostile to everyone in the world.
Nangong Zhi hesitated to speak, and finally said: "Can you let us meet the two palace officials?"
Feng Qing frowned and sneered: "The dignified prince and the current young assistant came here together, just to question me for the life of a pariah?"
Yun Qi supported his head with one hand and said lazily: "Okay, let's close the case."
Feng Qing's eyes widened and she closed the case, "I'm telling you, don't even think about unjustly accusing me."
Yun Qi blinked his peach-blossom eyes and spread his hands pretending to be innocent, "Little Marquis, this is how we have always dealt with the regulations of the Criminal Division. I can't help you if you don't cooperate."
"Oh, no wonder the Criminal Division is famous for its unjust, false and erroneous cases."
"It has nothing to do with me, you have to look for me to take over."
In terms of thick skin, Feng Qing is no match for Yun Qi.
Nangong Zhi stopped them and spoke tit-for-tat, "Mr. Feng Xiaohou, it's not that we doubt you, but the location of Tu Da's death is too strange and may be related to the Yaksha case, so I ask you to cooperate." .”
Feng Qing cursed in her heart. She was indeed a cultured person, and her words were more palatable than Yun's. It was just that it was not that he was unwilling to hand it over, but that he had driven away the two people earlier.
Feng Qing was in a bad mood tonight for this reason. Although he had always known that the people around him seemed to indulge him in all his unscrupulous ways, in fact, it was his father who secretly obeyed his orders. However, their caution was a silent reminder at any time and anywhere that he was a dying person.
The world is always too tolerant of people who are about to die. What they say the most is nothing more than - he is going to die, why do you care about him.
Feng Qing came here because he felt unhappy, but the longer he stayed, the more boredom and emptiness became prevalent. Even if Nangong Zhi and Yun Qi couldn't get up, he planned to leave. But they arrived just in time, and Feng Qing actually felt relaxed and happy.
Even if it's because of a murder case.
"What a coincidence?" Nangong Zhi frowned slightly, "How many days have they been gone?"
Feng Qing said impatiently: "A day and a half or two days, who knows."
Yun Qi clicked his tongue and shook his head: "What a coincidence. I don't even believe it if I say it wasn't intentional."
Feng Qing turned her face: "Believe it or not, love."
Nangong Zhi narrowed his eyes and said, "It happened that after the two of them abandoned the people, Feng Qing was asked to rush back, and Tu Da died in that place again."
Feng Qing's face was dark, covered with a layer of frost, "Someone is shameless and wants to frame me?"
"Wow, Yasha can frame our little Marquis Feng if he can pinch her." Yun Qi raised his eyebrows.
"It's hard to say, after all, we haven't even figured out what Yaksha is so far." Nangong Zhi turned his head and asked Yunqi: "Prince Yun, what do you think?"
Yun Qi raised his lips and smiled, and said nonchalantly: "Nangong Shaofu, don't ask me what I think of any problem you encounter. It will appear that you pay too much attention to me."
Nangong Zhi held his forehead, "Now that the dojo is not opening smoothly, Yaksha has come out to harm people. If the truth cannot be found out, it will be difficult for us to explain to the Holy One."
"Then catch Yaksha."
Nangong Zhi sighed: "Easy to say."
Yun Qi looked at him thoughtfully, "It's not easy to catch a Yaksha."
"Does Prince Yun have any plans?"
"Have you seen Yaksha?" Yun Qi looked at Nangong Zhi and shook his head and then looked at Feng Qing, "What about you?"
Feng Qing was confused and frowned, "Nervous."
Yunqi spread out his jade bone fan face up, "Isn't it okay? No one knows Yaksha's true identity. If you go up here to do the job, who dares to ask you whether it's true or false?"
Nangong Zhi couldn't believe it, "This is a lie and a crime of deceiving the emperor."
"Really?" Yun Qi asked lightly, shrugging: "Then I have nothing to do."
Feng Qing endured it and couldn't help but spit on him: "After all, he is the prince of the palace, and he is trying to do evil things."
Here, Feng Qing Fei Ge passed the message and called the two palace officials to return to Diqiu. Nangong Zhi had to rush to Longling Dojo. The new altar had been built, and Master Dongyue and others were about to open the altar again for worship.
"Will this new suspect be imprisoned in the county office?" Yun Qi pointed at Feng Qing with his jade bone fan.
Feng Qing secretly cursed, "You really don't need to be sneaky if you want to kill people."
Yun Qi groaned, pulled Nangong Zhi's sleeve and raised his chin, "Did you hear that? He had a motive to kill."
Feng Qing: "..."
Nangong Zhi thought for a moment, it was really difficult, "Otherwise..."
Yun Qi looked at him with a subtle look, and there was an ominous feeling in his heart. Hearing Nangong Zhi slowly say: "The county office is overcrowded. After all, Mr. Feng Xiaohou has a special health. How about Brother Yun keep him by your side for a few days?"
—
Lu Anran came back from the county office for autopsy. After drinking half a pot of tea, he saw Yunqi Shi Shiran coming back. He was about to speak when he saw a bright red dress fly out from behind, and his eyebrows on his left side were raised.
"This yard is a bit too small. It's not even as big as a corner of my house. There are locust trees in the yard, so I'm not afraid of being haunted." Feng Qing belittled her unceremoniously, and then she finally became aware of her status as a guest and reluctantly Say something nice: "The decoration is just unsatisfactory, so let's just make do with it."
Yun Qi pressed his jade bone fan on his shoulders, causing Feng Qing to stop walking forward, "I feel a little self-conscious. You are now a suspected criminal."
Feng Qing was silent for a moment, then suddenly covered her chest, "It hurts so much, I'm going to be sick..."
Yunqi rubbed his forehead and said, "Okay, you can go to the guest room."
Feng Qing immediately put away her painful expression, raised her chin and went to look for the room she liked with high spirits.
Lu Anran saw Yun Qi deflated for the first time, and couldn't help but feel a little funny: "What did the prince gain from his trip?"
Yun Qi said angrily: "Don't think that I didn't see you snickering." What can he do when he encounters a sick and consumptive ghost? He has no choice but to provide for him.
When he heard the whole story, Lu Anran had no sympathy at all, "Since Mr. Feng Xiaohou's two servants may have clues, it would be better to keep him in the mansion."
Yun Qi lifted up his robe and sat back on the wicker chair, sighing: "You know now, a dog that bites doesn't bark. Nangong Zhi's calculation is really good."
Speaking of this, Lu Anran said: "That's not what the prince said when he sent someone to deliver a letter to Prince Nangong last time."
When Xue Tai arrived at the county office, he couldn't avoid it no matter how hard he tried. Yun Qi very insidiously sent someone to Longling to bring a message to Nangong Zhi, saying that he had found a great clue and agreed to meet at the county office.
After that, of course, it was Nangong Zhi who got Xue Tai involved. The specific process is not clear, but it was not very pleasant anyway.
Yun Qi was very excited to watch the show, but the more dramatic scene was that Xue Tai suddenly left.
"Although Nangong Zhi is favored by the emperor, Xue Tai is a bit arrogant, and with the support of the second prince, he will never give up so easily after what happened to the Zhou family." Yun Qi analyzed: "It can only be that someone above him spread the word Give him a letter and ask him not to pursue it."
Lu Anran listened and nodded: "Sure enough, as Magistrate Fang said, cooperation with the Zhou family is very important to Governor Xue, otherwise he would not have rushed to Diqiu as soon as he heard something happened to the Zhou family, and even risked being suspected. .”
Yun Qi tapped the table with his finger bones, "To make Xue Tai so obedient, do you think it's the emperor or the Liu family, or..."
Lu Anran lowered her eyes and said, "Concubine Shu."
The two looked at each other with a sense of understanding at the same time, "As long as nothing happens, as long as the emperor has a little suspicion, even the prefect Fang can find something, naturally it is impossible to hide it, at least the transaction between Xue Tai and the Zhou family I can’t hide it. Where did so much money go, and how much of it was used to pave the way for the second prince. In order to protect one’s own safety, it’s only normal to withdraw in time.”
Lu Anran was filled with admiration, "It can be seen from this incident that Concubine Shu is a courageous person."
Yun Qi glanced at it, and an almost invisible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Otherwise, you would think that anyone can be in a high position and have no disadvantages in the harem. Anyone who can live a long time and stand tall in that kind of place is extraordinary. You'd better avoid it if you can."
—
Because there were so many people, dinner was served in the courtyard.
Uncle Zhong moved a new round table that could seat a dozen people and placed it under the big locust tree. The setting sun was shining slantingly and the evening breeze was gently blowing. It suddenly felt like a leisurely and leisurely atmosphere to enjoy the scenery and cool down.
Qiu Chan's hands and feet were nimble and she cooked sixteen dishes in one go. Large and small plates were piled up. She divided them with chopsticks and said cheerfully: "The house has not been so lively for a long time. It's just like the Chinese New Year."
Lu Anran came out of the room and looked to the left to see Master Xunqing and Master Ma each wearing a Taoist robe. When they met, they greeted each other and recited syntactic names, which made people feel as if they were in a Taoist temple. Looking to the right again, Lu Taotao grabbed Feng Qing's red sleeve, while Feng Qing grabbed Lu Taotao's pigtails. The two of them walked slowly over, wrestling with each other.
Mo Yan is squatting on the treetop, watching the moon and leaning against the tree with his sword below, Yunqi is lying under the tree with his legs crossed, and sitting opposite is Nangong Zhi.
Lu Anran suddenly felt a little headache. How on earth did these people with completely different styles get together here.
"Miss Lu." Nangong Zhi saw it first and stood up to say hello politely.
Lu Anran nodded coldly, knowing in his heart that Nangong Zhi was probably here to discuss the case with Yun Qi.
"Little brother, are you here?" Lu Taotao saw Nangong Zhi's eyes brighten, let go of Feng Qing, jumped to the seat and sat down, and curled his fingers at Nangong Zhi, "Sit next to me."
Feng Qing angrily straightened her sleeves and rolled her eyes: "Nympho."
Lu Taotao narrowed his eyes: "Little Duji, who are you calling a nympho?"
"You're the little dork!"
"It's you, it's you, otherwise you'd be a stinky old hen, cluck."
Feng Qing's nose was crooked in anger, and she turned around and walked in the other direction. He wanted to be the farthest away from Lu Taotao!
As a result, he turned around and didn't realize there was someone behind him. He bumped into him. He covered his nose and took three steps back. He raised his eyes and glared accusingly: "Who are you?"
Qi Shang lowered his head slightly and looked at Feng Qing with round eyes in surprise, seeing that he was covering his face with only one pair of eyes showing, which were extraordinarily big and round, boiling with raging anger as if he could speak.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know you would turn around and back away suddenly."
This apology was very irritating, and Feng Qing said angrily: "Do you want to scold me for being blind?"
Qi Shang didn't know that he would be so forceful and said calmly: "No, I sincerely apologize. If you are injured somewhere, I will take you to see a doctor."
Feng Qing's face was full of disbelief. This person actually implied that he was a weakling, the kind who would need to see a doctor if he was hit!
"You just see a doctor, your whole family is sick!"
Qi Shang frowned. Except for Lu Taotao, he had seen unreasonable people in his life, and this one seemed to be more serious.
Feng Qing rubbed her nose indignantly. The pain was relieved and sourness went up the bridge of her nose. Water mist evaporated from her eyes, as if it would drip out in the blink of an eye.
Qi Shang looked at the sudden red nose on his snow-white face and his eyes filled with tears of grievance. He thought that although he had a tough mouth, he was still a child after all, and he almost cried with grievance.
Immediately, the dissatisfaction in his heart subsided, and guilt rose. He patted Feng Qing's head with a comforting gesture. After thinking about how to comfort a child, he said after a while: "Don't cry, I will buy you candy later."
Feng Qing should have jumped, but under such gentle eyes and stiff gestures, she opened her mouth wide and didn't say a word for a long time.
