I promise

Chapter 806 Don't dare to check (thanks to Jing Yaoyao for rewarding and adding more)
Seeing Mu Zhongcheng's displeasure, Shu Yi said again: "Mrs. Zheng sent someone to deliver a message a month ago, saying that two Zilongwoxue plants are missing for a banquet. It just so happens that this year's Zilongwoxue is not growing well. Madam Zheng I prefer the color of riches and honor, so I chose a Nijinxiang and a pot of Jinhong Dabei as gifts."

Mu Zhongcheng frowned, feeling bored.

In today's world, most people are martial artists, and the imperial court is just trying to make a name for themselves, and they don't dare to easily challenge the forces of the world.Mrs. Du Xian's Xuxian really didn't know what to say, she came to Mu's house twice as a guest, and then she saw Tiandi came to the mansion to ask for things.Do you really think the Mu family is so easy to deceive?
"She will come again later, don't pay attention to her."

"Yes." Shu Yi hesitated for a moment, and replied.

Mu Cangping spared no expense, what he said was, as long as it wasn't too much, he would give it to her.But since Mu Zhongcheng disagreed, Mu Cangping would not argue with him on such a trivial matter.

Mu Gang has an account of the important and not so important people in the relationship between the Mu family.

"It's Zheng Yunrong," the old butler said urgently. "She was originally a dancer from Du Xian's house, and later she adopted a concubine. After Du Xian's original wife died, she used some means to get Du Xian to fight against all opinions. She straightened up—this woman is not simple."

Eight words popped out of Mu Zhongcheng's mind: the golden wind under the mountain, the osmanthus in the cloud.

They were all wrong!

The apron is indeed evidence, but the key point is not the previous sentence, but the latter sentence "Guizi in the cloud."

Mu Gang raised his eyes and met Mu Zhongcheng's eyes, obviously he also thought of it.

"Go to the Governor's Mansion."

Zheng Yunrong is dead.

The old governor was so sad that he fell ill.It was the housekeeper who received Mu Zhongcheng.

When Mu Zhongcheng saw the white lantern at the door, he changed his mind and pretended to come to express his condolences. The old housekeeper did not doubt that he had it, and led him to the mourning hall, talking a lot about it.

It is said that yesterday was Zheng Yunrong's birthday, and Du Xian organized a big banquet for her, but Zheng Yunrong was overwhelmed with alcohol, halfway through the banquet, he asked the servant girl to take her back to rest.

After the third night banquet, Du Xian rested in Xinna's concubine's room.

There was nothing unusual in the mansion overnight.

Unexpectedly, in the early morning of the next day, a servant passed by the garden pond and found the floating female body. When they salvaged it, it was Zheng Yunrong.

The body was swollen and soaked for a long time.

The mourning hall was still being built hastily, Zheng Yunrong's body was parked in the yard, and people came and went in a mess.

The old housekeeper went to work on other things.

While no one was paying attention, Mu Zhongcheng pried open Zheng Yunrong's mouth to see that there were aquatic creatures in the mouth that had not been cleaned in time, and they were not thrown into the water after death.

He went to check the pond where the body was found.

There is a willow grove adjacent to the north of the pond. People probably don't go there often, and moss grows on the bank.From the several roads that people often walk in the garden, there is a row of shallow footprints in the hard-to-see position, and there are obvious slip marks near the pond, which are shallow on the outside and deep on the inside, all the way to the edge of the pond.

The moss on the inner wall was also cut out a gap.

No matter how you look at it, it's like falling into the water.

Zheng Yunrong's room was turned into a mess, and the servants said that there was a thief in the house.

Earlier, the maid in Zheng Yunrong's room found that his wife was not there, and when she went out to look for her, the room was fine.Later, the body was discovered, and the mansion was in a mess, and some servants from the outer court took advantage of the chaos to come in, steal property and escape.

In the mess all over the ground, there are two trampled chrysanthemums.

I asked the people in Zheng Yunrong's courtyard, and it was confirmed that the two pots of Nijinxiang and Jinhong Dabei were sent by Shu Yi.It is said that Zheng Yunrong has been taking care of these two potted flowers all the time, and he specially kept an eye on his servants to take care of them. The chrysanthemum species are precious, and they were all moved into the house for fear of losing them at night—there is absolutely no possibility of them being moved and brought back.

All kinds of signs seem to show that Mu Zhongcheng's previous judgment was wrong - Zheng Yunrong may not be the murderer of Yan Guishan.

But how to explain that when Yan Guishan was killed in front of him, Zheng Yunrong died right after him?And in Zheng Yunrong's name, there happened to be a word cloud.

Mu Zhongcheng brought along Xuan Mei, a woman from the "Ji" family who had received special training and was very good at chatting with people. She said that she was good at handling funeral affairs and stayed in the governor's mansion to collect information.

On the way back to Mu's house, he met the messenger sent by Mu Gang-Jiao Sui died.

Mu Zhongcheng is no stranger to any kind of bad news now, but he finds it strange that there are no dead people.

Jiao Sui's death was not as complicated as Cheng Tu and Yan Guishan's. He fell off a cliff and died.

Jiao Sui had the habit of going up to the mountain to meditate in the early morning. To be cautious, he chose a different place to sit every time.The other party also figured out the law of his seat selection somehow, and moved his hands and feet on the cliff in advance.

According to the traces left on the scene and the scars on the corpse, it is basically possible to restore the situation before Jiao Sui fell off the cliff.

The opponent should have launched a surprise attack after Jiao Sui had settled down in meditation.

Jiao Sui was very vigilant, and the opponent obviously knew that it was impossible to hit him with one blow. He prepared lime powder, and when Jiao Sui was attacked, he jumped vigorously and stepped on the loose boulder, and then sprinkled it out in an instant.

Jiao Sui's eyes were burned by the lime, and he had nowhere to go on his feet, so in a hurry, he grabbed the wooden stick used by the opponent for a sneak attack-it was a piece of rotten wood.

The last step was also the deadliest step. Taking advantage of Jiao Sui's failure to borrow strength and leaning back, the opponent jumped up and gave him a powerful heartwarming kick.

Such interlocking calculations are really shocking.

Poor Jiao Sui had practiced domineering kung fu, and finally died in such a cowardly way-it didn't even need to send out a master like Huo An to kill him, all he needed was a strong man who could jump up and give him a kick at a critical moment. enough.

Mu Zhongcheng had no doubt that he was Mu Dian's killer.

Who insists on burning and dying?Who would have so many minds and tricks to kill people in such an unexpected way?It was just before the news of the deaths of Yan Guishan and Luo Qi came out.

After defeating four top masters in a row, no one dared to take Mu Dian lightly when he lost his martial arts.Yan Guishan and Luo Qi thought that Mu Men immediately dispatched troops to protect Jiao Sui.

Unexpectedly, it was still a step too late.

At this time, Mei Longxue was contentedly squatting at the door of the kitchen in the second entrance courtyard, eating a pot of soy-flavored elbows stewed until the red meat was crispy.

She and Aunt Wang went out one after another, one went up the mountain, the other went to the market to buy elbows. The fresh elbows were washed, mixed with sauce, and simmered for two hours, just in time for lunch.

***
After all, Mumen is a place where high-level people gather.

Zheng Yunrong's line did not break in the end.

Following the clue of Zheng Yunrongxi's use of Meixiang, he found Xiangran again.Huo An hadn't had time to wipe away the traces of Zheng Yunrong left in Xiangran when the people from Mumen killed him.

The guy who sells incense to Zheng Yunrong is called Chen Hu, and he has a sister named Chen Xia.

Three years ago, Bai Wanli, the leader of the "Wu" branch, accidentally dropped his scabbard during a duel and accidentally killed Chen Xia who went up the mountain to collect herbs for her seriously ill father.

Father Chen was overwhelmed and passed away on the same day in grief.Mother Chen lost her husband and daughter, fell ill not long after, and died a year later.

Chen Hu, who became an orphan, went to Luoyang with his fellow villagers to make a living.

Later, Chen Hu met Bai Wanli by chance on the street. He didn't know Bai Wanli, but Bai Wanli recognized him. After that, he took good care of this young man.

After checking here, Mu Zhongcheng didn't want to check anymore.

Mu Cangping would not tell the secret of the matter of the destruction of gold unless he was someone with high martial arts skills and a confidant.Of the nine people he brought to Chang'an back then, except for the two from Qingshan's ancestral house, the seven who survived - Zhao Qingyi, Cheng Zhuyan, Tu Xuanbei, Yan Guishan, Luo Qi, Bai Wanli, Jiao Sui - had been killed to the point of death. Zhao Qingyi and Bai Wanli were left.

Mu Zhongcheng believed that Bai Wanli had no reason to kill Yan Guishan.But he believed even more that as long as he continued to investigate, he would definitely find the motive for Bai Wanli's murder.

The master of layout will definitely create a perfect motive without leaving any flaws, waiting for them in front.
