Cut Frost

Chapter 82 82. Confession?

At dusk, Yu'er and his party arrived in Huazhou.

It is only about two hundred miles away from the capital.

"Let's rest here for one night, we can arrive tomorrow." Li Yuan folded his wings and said to Yu'er and Xiao Mi.

"Thank you for your hard work." Yu'er patted his shoulder and said.

Several people came into the city and saw a group of people watching something around.

"It's really a good match for the prime minister's mansion and the royal family." I heard those people say.

The three of them also squeezed in to have a look.

I saw an imperial list posted on the wall, which said that the second princess was betrothed to the mansion of General Meng, and the third princess was married to the mansion of Prime Minister Xiao.

"It's even more difficult now." Kurihara touched his chin and shook his head and sighed.

Yu'er looked at the imperial list, but said nothing.

Xiao Mi probably also heard Yuer's general idea, pulled Yuer and said, "Sister Yuer, what should I do now?"

The imperial decree has been issued, this is indeed difficult, and Yu'er is also very headache.

"Let's go back and have a look first." Yu'er said.

The three of them squeezed out of the crowd, when they suddenly saw a few sergeants galloping towards them, dismounted hastily in front of the list, and shouted to the crowd: "Scatter, disperse!"

The first person stepped forward and took off the imperial list with one hand.

Turning around, he waved to the crowd still around a little further away and shouted, "It's all gone, gone!"

Several people rolled up the imperial list, got on their horses, and ran away in a hurry.

"Sister Yu'er, what's going on?" Xiao Mi asked strangely.

"I'm afraid something has happened." Li Yuan said to Yu'er.

"Yeah." Yu'er nodded and said, "Anyway, I'll know tomorrow."

The three of them found an inn to rest, and they only waited to return to Jingyue City tomorrow, find Chi Lin, and ask carefully how it was.

In the middle of the night, Yu'er had fallen asleep.

Suddenly felt that the window seemed to be moving, and woke up with a start.

Fang opened his eyes and saw a cold light piercing towards him in the darkness.

"careful!"

Yu'er yelled, rolled off the bed, and turned over on the spot.

Xiao Mi was awakened by Yu'er's cry, and immediately realized that someone was intruding, so she jumped down to the ground with amber antlers in her hand, and stabbed a black figure.

The black shadow flickered aside.

Yu'er took advantage of this gap to light up the lamp.

I saw a slender figure of medium stature standing in the room, holding a long-handled pointed gun in his hand.

"Who are you?" Yuer asked loudly.

The man didn't answer, but asked Yu'er: "Is the Ningshuang pill in your hand?"

"Ningshuang Wan?" Yu'er understood a little.

Ningshuang pill can boost the demon power for thousands of years, so it is naturally coveted by all monsters.

The sharp gun demon approached Yu'er two steps, pointed the sharp spear point at Yu'er: "Hand over the Ningshuang pill!"

Yu'er clicked twice: "Sneak attack in the middle of the night to snatch other people's treasures, your character is not very good."

The sharp gun demon grinned: "My uncle is a demon, what character do you want?"

He brought the spear closer to Yu'er again: "Hand it over quickly, or you will die."

"The tone is not small." Yu'er snorted, and with the ice blade in her hand, she stabbed straight at the sharp spear.

Sharp guns also came forward.

In the blink of an eye, the Sin of God ice blade and sharp spear collided with each other, making a crisp sound.

Yu'er was about to stimulate the demon power, but found that the sharp spear demon who was clearly in front of her eyes suddenly disappeared!
Suddenly Xiao Mi shouted: "Be careful behind!"

Before Yu'er could turn around, she heard the sound of the gust of wind behind her, she quickly dodged but it was too late.

I only felt pain in my right arm, blood splashing.

The blood-stained cold sharp gun brushed his cheek and pierced it!

Almost ruined my face!

This guy can hide himself, move so fast?
Yu'er was startled, and immediately activated Bingli, pushing towards the feet of the sharp gun demon, trying to seal him so that he could not move.

But the ice power has not yet formed, and the sharp spear demon disappeared from his eyes again!
what happened?

Yu'er held her breath to look for the sharp spear monster's breath, and she soon felt the sharp spear attacking her back again.

Yu'er quickly turned around to block the blow with the Sin of God ice blade.

The sharp spear demon retreated two steps and stabbed at Yu'er again, Yu'er tried to freeze his feet again while dodging.

The sharp gun demon saw that she was about to rise up and quickly jumped out of the window, and jumped into the courtyard downstairs.

Yu'er also jumped downstairs.

"Sister Yu'er!" Xiao Mi called out and jumped down.

Hearing this cry, Li Yuan next door also woke up, immediately turned over, opened the window and saw Yu'er and Xiao Mi in the courtyard confronting a monster with a sharp gun.

"Yu'er!" Kurihara called out, pulled out his own copper chain, jumped down the stairs, and stood beside Yu'er.

"What happened?" Kurihara asked.

"He said he was going to grab Ningshuang Wan." Yu'er said.

Kurihara was not happy to hear the boss: "It's a beautiful idea."

Immediately, he shook the long black copper chain in his hand, and the chain rolled towards the sharp gun demon like a dragon.

Yu'er also straightened out the ice blade in her hand, and stabbed straight at the sharp spear demon.

The sharp gun demon dodged their attacks several times.

Yu'er and Li Yuan were about to attack together again, but they suddenly felt a thick Dharma Realm coming from behind them.

When he quickly stopped his momentum and looked back, he saw a Dharma Realm woven by countless sharp spears just under the hood.

The sharp gun demon was standing at the window of Yu'er's room on the second floor!
How did he run upstairs to the room so quickly again?

And at the same time end this sharp spear law world?
The situation was critical, so Kurihara quickly took out a dull bronze mirror—the Sakuya mirror, and aimed it at the center of the dharma world with the sharp spear under the hood.

A golden light suddenly shines in the bronze mirror—the hanging pot is positive!
Wherever the golden light went, the sharp spear law world turned into countless light particles and scattered.

Yu'er looked back, and there was a sharp spear demon standing behind him with exactly the same clothes, appearance, and figure.

It turned out to be two people!

Yu'er immediately activated Bingli.

The sharp gun demon already felt that it was difficult to succeed today, and the two of them shouted "go" almost at the same time, and then disappeared suddenly.

Xiao Mi hurried up to see Yu'er's injury: "Sister Yu'er, how are you?"

"It's okay." Yu'er said.

Kurihara took a closer look and saw a deep scar on Yu'er's arm. He was surprised: "How did you get hurt like this?"

"It's hard to defend against a hidden gun." Yu'er smiled, "It doesn't matter if you get hurt, I'll just apply some medicine given by Sister Qingyi and it will be fine."

Even so, Kurihara refused to leave the next day no matter what: "Yesterday, I made a fuss all night, and I couldn't sleep well, and I was injured like this again. I'll have to take care of it for a day or two anyway."

"Still raising it? Does this injury need to be so exaggerated?" Yu'er laughed.

"It's just right that you were poisoned in Lanwo Village. You rushed to Jingyue City without taking a good rest. Isn't it just because of the third princess' marriage proposal? Now that the imperial decree has been withdrawn, why are you in a hurry? Listen Mine, take care of it for a day or two." Kurihara said.

Xiao Mi rubbed her eyes: "Yes, Sister Yu'er, I haven't woken up yet."

Yu'er patted Xiao Mi's head: "Okay, then I'll sleep with Xiao Mi for a while. Rest well today and start tomorrow."

********
When the three returned to Jingyue City, there was no need to inquire about it, they already knew it all.

Rumors spread in Jingyue City that Xiao Hengqi, the third son of Prime Minister Xiao's mansion, bought a murderer to kill someone.

The dignified third son of Prime Minister Xiao's mansion, the third son-in-law hand-picked by Yubi, and the imperial list have only been released for a few days, and the red seal on the list has not yet dried out, yet they are accused of being the mastermind of the murder!
There is no more shocking news than this!

Therefore, in the streets and alleys of Jingyue City, there are many people whispering about this matter, and I don't know what it has become.

"Kurihara, besides Juxian Tower, where else can we talk without being disturbed?" Yu'er asked Liyuan.

Qi Ruhuan, the fat man in Juxian Building, was very suspicious. Besides, there was such a big scene last time, and this time he didn't bring someone who could keep the accounts, so it was hard to go again.

"This is not easy to handle, Tianwaiquan!" Kurihara said, "Clean, clean, enough!"

"Okay, then go to Tianwaiquan." Yu'er said.

Li Yuan walked first, Yu'er pulled Xiao Mi behind, and just entered the gate of Tianwaiquan.

Yusu had already seen it upstairs, turned his head and smiled and said to Youjue who was sitting in the room: "It just happened to come to my Tianwaiquan."

You Jue looked up at her: "Which room are you in?"

Yu'er and Xiao Mi were waiting at Tianwaiquan, and Li Yuan brought Chi Lin here.

Chi Lin's face was full of worry and worry, but there was no trace of joy.

It stands to reason that no matter what happened to this matter, he should be the most happy and toast.

"What's wrong with you? You have a drooping face?" Yu'er wondered.

"That's right, you are not happy that the son-in-law of the three princesses has become a prisoner?" Kurihara also said.

Xiao Mi sat by and only drank tea.

After walking this way, I was scorched by the scorching sun, and it seemed that all the moisture on my body had been evaporated.

However, this tea is really delicious!

Fragrant and thirst-quenching!
"How is the second prince?" Chi Lin asked first without answering.

"He's fine, the disease has been cured, don't worry." Yu'er said.

Then I will talk about the general situation.

"It's really thanks to the two of you!" Chi Lin cupped his hands to the two of them.

"You're welcome." Yu'er shook her hand and said, "Tell me, what's the matter with your unhappy face?"

"Ziyu can't kill someone!" Chi Lin said with a dark face.

"Ziyu?" Yu'er thought for a while and said, "You mean the third son of the Xiao family?"

Chi Lin nodded.

"Anyone can kill, why can't he?" Kurihara drank a big mouthful of tea, wiped his mouth and asked.

The buddy who came in to refill the water and make tea took a few breaths when he saw how they were drinking tea.

Even gods can drink the tea from Tianwaiquan.

These few of them are like donkeys.

If you don't know how to drink tea, don't come to Tianwaiquan, you will waste this good tea and water for nothing.

"I have known Ziyu for more than ten years. He is good at writing and martial arts, and has a gentle nature, so he has to be kind to others. How could he do such a thing like buying murder?" Chi Lin said.

"The yamen can't arrest people casually, right? You said he couldn't buy murder, but do you have evidence?" Kurihara said.

Chi Lin shook his head dejectedly, and then said: "There must be twists and turns, I must find out!"

"Have you been bitten by a donkey?" Kurihara looked at him in disbelief and asked.

"What?" Chi Rin said.

"The third young master Xiao has gone to prison, don't you and the third princess are just right? If you want to fish him out, the third princess will belong to him!" Kurihara looked at Chi Rin, like looking at an elm who didn't understand Pimple, I just wanted to knock him out.

"It's two different things." Chi Lin said.

"Your brain, it's time for you to wake up." Kurihara said and walked over, hugged his head with both hands and shook it vigorously.

Chi Lin wanted to break free, but he couldn't do it, but he dazzled his eyes.

"Okay, Kurihara, let him go." Yu'er stepped forward and pulled Kurihara's hand away.

Chi Linfang was rescued, and supported his head with one hand, he felt that the tables, chairs and screens in the room were still shaking.

"How did the third son of the Xiao family get into the prison?" Yu'er asked Chi Lin.

"Sister Yu'er, I'm hungry." Xiao Mi rubbed her belly swollen from drinking, and suddenly remembered that she hadn't eaten lunch yet.

"Xiaoer, is there anything to eat?" Yu'er yelled, and a waiter rushed in and agreed: "Yes, sir, please wait a moment."

After a while, a few plates of exquisite snacks came in.

Some are made into seasonal flowers, some are made into pavilions, and some are shaped like ladies, birthday stars, and fairy peaches.

"This, this is, dim sum?" Xiao Mi looked at the exquisitely crafted and extremely exquisite dim sum on the table and said in disbelief.

"This is our Tianwaiquan's special dessert, guest officer, please take it easy." The man replied, holding back a laugh.

"Eat it quickly." Yu'er patted her on the head and said.

Turning around, he still asked Chi Lin, "How did you get into the prison, please tell me first."

Chi Lin then gave a rough overview of the situation.

Three days ago, Xiao Hengqi, the third son of the Xiao family, went to Juxian Building for a banquet.

At the gate of Juxian Building, an old beggar woman grabbed her sleeves and insisted that he was a murderer and made her son go to prison for him.

"Grandma, you must have admitted the wrong person." Xiao Hengqi said awkwardly.

"The old beggar's eyes have been lost for a long time, but, even if your voice turns into ashes, I will never hear you wrong!" The old beggar tightly grabbed his sleeve and said.

Meng Han, who was at the banquet with Xiao Hengqi, came up and pushed the old beggar away forcefully, and shouted: "Where did the crazy woman come from, the third son of Prime Minister Xiao's mansion, how could it be a murderer?"

As he spoke, he waved to his accompanying soldiers: "Quick, quick, get this old woman away."

Then a few soldiers came up and took the old beggar away.

"Murderer! God will never spare you! I want to avenge my son!" The old beggar shouted while struggling.

That day, someone outside the yamen of Qianling Mansion beat drums and complained, suing the prime minister and the third son of the court for buying murder.

The words are conclusive, and the physical evidence is presented in court.

Zheng Desheng, the head of the Qianling Mansion, went to the Xiao Mansion and escorted Xiao Hengqi back to the mansion.

The crime is: buying off the murderer and murdering people.

"Murder? Who did he kill?" Yu'er and Li Yuan asked.

"It is said to be a drug supervisor named Meng." Chi Lin said.

After hearing this, Yu'er asked, "You don't know the man surnamed Meng?"

"I don't know." Chi Lin shook his head, "I heard about this person for the first time after this incident came out."

"Then what does this have to do with the old beggar's son?" Yu'er asked again.

"The one who killed was the old beggar's son." Chi Lin replied.

"So the old beggar wants to save her son?" Kurihara probably understood the connection.

However, Yu'er still felt strange: "Isn't that old beggar at Juxian Tower blind? How could she recognize Mr. Xiao San? And she even identified him as the mastermind?"

"Chi Lin is not very clear about this, but she has produced a physical evidence." Chi Lin said.

"What kind of physical evidence is it really credible?" Yu'er asked.

"It's a jade pendant." Chi Lin said.

Xiao Mi had already eaten half of the dim sum on the table, and still refused to stop, handed a piece to Yu'er and said, "Sister Yu'er, it's really delicious, why don't you eat some too."

"Why don't you give me a piece, I'm hungry too." Kurihara smiled at Xiao Mi.

"Don't you have any hands yourself? Why do you want me to help you!" Xiao Mi pouted at him.

"Stingy." Kurihara said, picking up two pieces and throwing them into his mouth.

"Don't eat too much, be careful to stretch yourself." Yu'er smiled at Xiao Mi.

Looking back, he still asked Chi Lin in puzzlement: "How can you fix it with only one jade pendant?"

"It is said that the jade pendant is Ziyu's belonging." Chi Lin frowned.

"That can't be concluded from that, can it?" Kurihara felt strange beside him.

Chi Lin suddenly fell silent.

"What's wrong?" Yu'er asked strangely.

"Ziyu, he recognized it..." After Chi Lin finished speaking, he stood up and punched the window lattice with his fist.
