Daxuanti criminal officer

Chapter 108
Qunfangyuan is the name of a teaching workshop.

And this one happened to be the one adjacent to the inn where Xu Zun lived.

"I know, I know... After so many years, you are the only ones who still remember that Yuyao," said a middle-aged woman with a plump figure and flirtatious dress, "I never thought that you would still find me here!"

The middle-aged woman who spoke was a young woman from Qunfangyuan. Jiaofangsi and Hualou are different. Here, entertainment is emphasized, while Hualou highlights style.

Therefore, the person in charge of the Jiaofang Division is called Miao Niang, not a "nanny".

The reason why Xu Zun and others found this place was because this young lady knew one of the victims of the monk-clothed female corpse case, a woman named Yuyao.

"Yes." Without any pretense, Yao Niang directly gave the answer Xu Zun wanted, "Yuyao did have a child before she was killed!
"Sigh, peach blossoms are unlucky, life is not in harmony," my mother seemed to be caught in painful memories, "who can decide their own destiny like a prostitute like us?"

"In this case..." Zhao Yu was puzzled, "Why did you have to give birth?"

"Hey!" My mother sighed, "Like so many infatuated sisters, Yuyao met a man who promised to redeem her.

"After having flesh and blood, we all persuaded her, but she preferred to trust that man.

"Finally...heh..."

This wry smile expressed endless sadness.

"That child..." Xu Zun asked, "Did you give it away? Who did you give it to?"

"Give it to a monk, where else can I send it?" My mother replied, "I remember, in order to cut off Yuyao's thoughts, the nanny at that time sent the child to a temple that was very far away.

"If the child is still alive, he must be in his teens now?"

really……

Xu Zun nodded secretly, it seems that his guess was right, the monk's clothing case ten years ago was also due to this reason.

After Na Yuyao sent away her child, she went to Huguo Temple every year to burn incense and fulfill her vows, praying for the child she sent away.

Perhaps, it was because of confessing with great concentration, or maybe because of discussing with others, Lian Kong finally heard about her matter, which caused her death.

"Although our Hualou girl's life is humble and humble, but..." Unexpectedly, recalling the sad events of ten years ago, My Niang actually shed tears, "That crazy monk can't take her life like this!

"I heard that the monk lived happily in prison for several years before he was beheaded in the end! How cheap he is!"

"Let me ask you," Xu Zun asked, "after Yuyao was murdered, did you tell the police that Yuyao had a child?"

"No? It seems..." My mother thought hard, shook her head and said, "They didn't ask, did they? If they don't ask about this kind of thing, why are we talking about it?

"Besides, what does it matter if the crazy monk killed people, whether he had a child with my mother or not?"

"Yes, also..." In order not to arouse her suspicion, Xu Zun had no choice but to ignore it perfunctorily.

After coming out of Qunfangyuan, Xu Zun's speculation became clearer. The theory of Liankong's sin of reincarnation back then was just a diversion of the target.

The reason why he really killed people was because these women had illegitimate children and sent the children to the temple to be raised.

However, Xu Zun is still not sure whether Lian Kong is the real murderer?

Logically speaking, Lian Kong may also be a child who was sent to a temple and raised by monks.

Therefore, it is reasonable for him to have murderous thoughts due to the deformity in his heart.

However, the reappearance of the monk's clothing case is obviously something that was missed back then.

It is also possible that Lian Kong pleaded guilty to protect someone!

Who are you protecting?

Thinking of this, Xu Zun immediately thought of Lian Kong's age. Lian Kong was over 50 years old when he committed the crime.

If he is not the real murderer, but just wants to protect someone, then this person must be his close relative.

Poor Kong has no relatives and no reason, who could this person be...?
Is it possible...

Just thinking of this, the three of Xu Zun had already arrived at the door of the inn where they lived.

The inn they lived in was called Jinde, and it was considered an upper-middle inn in Shangyuan City.

Unexpectedly, when the three of them looked towards the entrance of the inn, they saw two waves of acquaintances.

One is Xu Zun's housekeeper Liu Dong, but he saw Liu Dong was carrying a wine jar on his shoulder and was about to carry it into the inn.

The other group of people were servants of the Marquis of Changping. They surrounded a very luxurious carriage, as if they were waiting for someone.

"Liu Dong?" Zhao Yu stepped forward and asked in doubt, "Where did you get such a jug of wine? You won't hide it from adults again, right?"

"This..." Liu Dong's complexion tightened, and he said in embarrassment, "This is a good wine that I bought from Taixian Building at the order of Master Xu!"

"What, Taixian Tower?" Zhao Yu frowned, and turned to look at Xu Zun.

"Well, not bad," Xu Zun said with a smile, "I went to a banquet at Taixian Building the day before yesterday, and found that the wine there was delicious, so I asked Liu Dong to buy a jar. What, is there a problem?"

"No...no..." Zhao Yu's eyes widened, and he swallowed greedily, "Master Xu is so elegant, wait...when the case is over, can you give me a pot too?"

"Don't say it," Huo Anu also looked at the wine jar enviously, "The wine is really delicious, and it's not the same taste as our Western Region wine..."

"No problem, hehe..." Xu Zun smiled and asked Liu Dong, "Liu Dong, this is the carriage of the Marquis Mansion, is there someone looking for me?"

"Um……"

"Master Xu," who knows, the coachman heard Xu Zun's question and immediately greeted him and saluted, "My Miss Lu is looking for you. She just went in with Daoist Wei. I'll call them out!"

Oh?
Lu Mingyue?
Xu Zun frowned slightly, unexpectedly Lu Xiaomei found the inn.

"Brother Xu?" As a result, Lu Mingyue's silver bell-like voice came from the door before the coachman entered the house, "We have found you!"

In the next second, Lu Mingyue, who was wearing a beautiful red dress, ran out of the inn, followed by the Taoist priest Wei Bei.

Nowadays, there are frequent crimes in Shangyuan City, and all of them involve young women, so Wei Beihui's identity has changed from a nursing home to Miss Lu's personal bodyguard.

Because of this, Wei Beihui still looked helpless and listless.

"Mingyue," Xu Zun asked hurriedly, "Why are you here?"

"Fortunately we didn't go upstairs," Lu Mingyue happily ran to Xu Zun, and said kindly, "I'm here to discuss important matters with you!"

"This..." Xu Zun first signaled to Liu Dong, and asked Liu Dong to carry the wine jar in, and then asked Lu Mingyue, "What's the big deal?"

"Of course it's about Lu Xiaofeng." Lu Mingyue pulled Xu Zun to the side where there were few people, and said, "Brother Xu, we discussed it when we went back yesterday, and decided to go to the northern suburbs to check it out today!"

"Oh?" Xu Zun pondered for a while and asked, "How to check?"

"We have checked, and there is only one official road leading to Wude City to the north of Shangyuan City. There are at least five or six Taoist temples on this official road. We want to check today to see if the people in these Taoist temples have seen Lu Xiaofeng's family ?”

"This...little sister," Xu Zun said worriedly, "This is too dangerous! You must bring enough people to do it!"

"I know, without solid evidence, your government will not send troops," Lu Mingyue said, "So, I just went to investigate first, and as soon as I found a problem, I will come back and report to you, and then send troops, how about it?" ?”

"You..." Xu Zun was even more worried, "Will Lord Hou agree? This is no joke!"

"My father knows, don't worry, don't worry!" When Lu Mingyue spoke, her eyes dodged for a moment, she was clearly lying...
