The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 336 Fairness
Hearing Cui Hengyue's question, Guo Yihui subconsciously thought about it: which official position is the minister of the Ministry of Industry or the Minister of Punishment that he wants?

The next moment, he came back to his senses, but he was surprised: the young man in front of him looked young, but he spoke like a superior who controlled everything.

Who is this person?

Guo Yihui became vigilant: "Who are you?"

Seeing that Guo Yihui was still on guard against himself, Cui Hengyue answered his question: "I, like you, hate aristocratic families.

"Now I have a piece of evidence that can help you find the murderer of Ye Shilang, do you want it?"

evidence?

This is what he wants most now.

Guo Yihui only hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes."

Immediately, he asked again: "What do you want?"

Having been an official for many years, he knows that there will never be pies in the sky, and he will pay a price for everything he does.

Cui Hengyue didn't answer directly, but asked him another question: "If the murderer is so powerful, would you dare to continue the investigation?"

"Why not? The Ministry of Criminal Justice's investigation is to give justice to the deceased. If you give up because of the murderer's power, what kind of justice is there in this world?" Guo Yihui said righteously.

A hint of admiration flashed in Cui Hengyue's eyes, and she slowly said her request: "What I want is very simple, you just need to do one thing for me.

"This matter does not violate the laws of heaven or the law, and it is within your power."

Guo Yihui was curious: "What is it?"

Cui Hengyue blinked her innocent eyes: "I haven't thought of it yet, I'll tell you when I think of it."

"..." Guo Yihui was speechless, his eyes moved to her hand: "What is the evidence?"

Cui Hengyue's expression froze, and her hands tightened: "You promise me, and I'll tell you."

Guo Yihui hesitated: "Are you sure that the evidence in your hand can testify against the murderer?"

"Sure." Cui Hengyue nodded solemnly.

Seeing this, Guo Yihui pondered for a while: "...Okay, I promise you."

Only then did Cui Hengyue pass the evidence to Guo Yihui: "At that time, the murderer was able to sneak into the Ye Mansion without anyone noticing, because the Ye Mansion had his internal support.

"And this purse is packed with the blood book that should be written inside."

Hearing this, Guo Yihui had a joyful expression on his face, he couldn't wait to take the purse, took out the blood book inside and read it.

"It's actually him!"

Seeing the murderer's name, Guo Yihui was shocked.

Cui Hengyue kept staring at Guo Yihui, and found that his expression was only shock, not fear, nor panic.

She really didn't see the wrong person...

Seeing the back, the corners of Guo Yihui's mouth could not help but curl up, and a smile appeared on his face.

Cui Hengyue couldn't help reminding him: "Qi Nianguang is General Zuo Wuwei, who holds the military power in his hands, and a mere blood letter cannot convict him."

Hearing this, Guo Yihui's smile did not change, he folded the blood book and put it in his arms, and returned the purse to Cui Hengyue.

"I know, but with this blood book, I can do a lot, and I will definitely bring the murderer to justice."

Seeing how confident he was, Cui Hengyue felt at ease, turned around and went deep into the alley.

"Hey, I don't know your name yet..." Guo Yihui shouted hastily.

Cui Hengyue's voice came from the wind: "I will find you when the time comes."

Cui Hengyue left the alley and came to the street. She was about to go back to her house when she accidentally saw Mrs. Cui sneaking into an alley. Her eyes rolled and she followed quietly.

After following for a while, she saw Mrs. Cui Er staying in front of a temple.

Mrs. Cui Er looked up at the plaque on the temple, and then entered the temple.

Cui Hengyue then looked at the plaque, only to see "Anping Temple" written squarely on it.

This is a small temple in Jinyang City, but because it was built by a famous great philanthropist in the previous dynasty, incense is constantly burning on weekdays.

What is Second Aunt doing here?
People from the Cui family went to worship the Buddha either to the royal temple outside the city, or to the Yunxuan Temple in Yunzhou. How could the second aunt come to the temple in the city?
With curiosity, Cui Hengyue stepped into Anping Temple step by step.

After entering the temple, Cui Hengyue hid in the crowd and followed Mrs. Cui Er not far or near.

She saw a middle-aged monk who took the initiative to greet Mrs. Cui Er. From his relaxed expression, it seemed that Mrs. Cui Er often came here, and the two of them were very familiar with each other.

After saying a few words, Mrs. Cui Er followed the middle-aged monk and left.

Cui Hengyue quietly followed, and saw Mrs. Cui Er entered a Buddhist hall, the middle-aged monk did not enter, and stood guard at the door.

Through the half-covered door, Cui Hengyue saw the second Mrs. Cui facing a memorial tablet, motionless.

She moved her steps, trying to change the direction to see what was written on the tablet.

However, just as she raised her foot, the middle-aged monk seemed to sense something and looked in her direction.

Cui Hengyue hurriedly retreated and hid behind the pillar.

She pricked up her ears and listened carefully, no one approached here.

After an unknown amount of time, Cui Hengyue finally heard the movement, and she cautiously looked out.

Mrs. Cui Er stood at the door of the Buddhist hall, handed a bulging bag to the middle-aged monk, and then walked out.

Cui Hengyue hurriedly retracted her head and found a hidden place nearby to hide.

When Mrs. Cui Er walked over, Cui Hengyue looked back, the middle-aged monk was still in the Buddhist hall and did not follow.

She thought about it and decided to continue following Mrs. Cui Er.

However, Mrs. Cui Er did not go to other places and left Anping Temple directly.

Cui Hengyue stood not far from the entrance of the temple, watching Mrs. Cui Er's back disappearing at the entrance, she thought for a while, turned around and walked inside again.

She quietly came to the Buddhist hall where Mrs. Cui Er went just now, but found that the door of the Buddhist hall was locked.

Cui Hengyue lowered her eyes and thought for a while, then took a few steps to the left, and stretched out her hand to puncture the paper on the door and window.

She turned around and glanced around, but there was no one there.

So, she turned her head and looked in through the small hole in the paper on the door and window, right at the tablet that Mrs. Cui Er was looking at before.

Cui Hengyue's eyes widened, filled with disbelief.

It was a tablet without words, and nothing was written on it.

"Who's in there?"

Suddenly, there were footsteps outside the courtyard door, Cui Hengyue jumped up onto the roof, and left quickly.

In a remote place, Cui Hengyue jumped off the roof and pretended to be a pilgrim to blend in with the crowd.

She slowly returned to the Buddhist hall where Mrs. Cui Er went, but instead of entering the courtyard, she stopped a young monk:

"Excuse me, whose spirit is enshrined in that Buddhist hall?"

The little monk didn't know, and said what he knew: "I don't know, but I heard from people in the temple that it was a tablet made by a mother for her dead child."

dead child?
Cui Hengyue frowned, Mrs. Cui Er's children are obviously alive and well, why did she set up a memorial tablet here?
Who is this dead child?
