After remarrying with my mother, I walked across the capital by hugging my thigh

Huo Qiming was full of sadness, he knew earlier that today's trip would be a hard job.

But he never thought that it would be so painful!

Unfortunately for him, he couldn't escape even if he wanted to!
Next time, he won't get involved in such a hard job no matter what!
Huo Qiming, full of bitterness, turned to look at Lin Youyi.

"Miss Si, before and after you listened to the play in Guangming Pavilion, did any unusual things happen, or did you see any suspicious people?"

"The most unusual thing is Xiangling's death. As for the suspicious person..."

Lin Youyi hesitated to speak, but still unconsciously glanced at Mu Zheng.

Needless to say, the strangest person was Ling Yun who appeared in the backyard sneakily.

But, she can't say it!
"No."

Lin Youyi answered decisively without hesitation!
However, she was obviously lying for Mu Zheng, but somehow found that the expression on Mu Zheng's face became more and more gloomy.

Huo Qiming knew that Lingyun had been to Guangming Pavilion that night.

But what he didn't know was that Lin Youyi had bumped into Ling Yun before.

Therefore, what Huo Qiming cares about is not Lin Youyi's momentary hesitation.

"Miss Si, do you know the little girl who died?"

"I know, but I'm not familiar. At the beginning of listening to the play, my clothes were splashed with tea..."

"Hmph! Listening to the opera carefully, how could the clothes be splashed with tea? Are you really going to listen to the opera?"

Lin Youyi didn't have time to finish her words.

Mu Zheng teased her angrily.

Lin Youyi was tongue-tied and stared at Mu Zheng.

"What does the lord mean? You didn't go to Guangming Pavilion to listen to the show, so what did you do? Could it be that you sneaked into the backyard and did something wrong?"

As soon as Lin Youyi's words came out, Chengyang Hou didn't know whether he was really choked, or he was frightened by Lin Youyi's blunt words, so he coughed twice.

But Xiao Yu'an, who was at the side, was secretly happy in his heart.

Even a blind person can see that the relationship between Mu Zheng and Lin Youyi is really tense and full of gunpowder!

Moreover, Lin Youyi's counterattack in a hurry is tantamount to confirming Xiao Yu'an's guess.

That night, the mysterious person Lin Youyi saw in the backyard of Guangming Pavilion must have something to do with Mu Zheng!

Then, why did Mu Zheng's people appear in Guangming Pavilion?
Coincidentally, as soon as Mu Zheng's people appeared, Yao Ling's maid died unexpectedly and suddenly!
This... is no longer a coincidence, but rather weird!

After Lin Youyi finished targeting Mu Zheng, she didn't want to argue with him anymore.

So, she quickly looked at Huo Qiming.

"After my clothes got wet, I thought about going to the backstage to deal with them. It was the little maid named Xiangling who cleaned and dried my clothes so that I wouldn't make a fool of myself in front of people. So, I only know that The little girl’s name is Xiangling, afterward, I gave her a few taels of silver as a reward, that’s all.”

"Miss Si, so you have been in contact with Xiangling?"

"That's right, but together, I didn't say a few words."

"Then when you came into contact with Xiangling, what was so unusual about her? Any tiny situation may become the key to solving the case. Fourth Miss, please recall it carefully."

Lin Youyi understood what Huo Qiming meant.

However, Xiao Yu'an who was sitting beside him was not satisfied.

"Huo Shaoqing, what do you mean by asking that? Is it possible that you doubt my fourth sister? Oh, it's ridiculous. My fourth sister has nothing to do with that little maid. Just because I said a few words, you will be dragged To make a long and short question, you think that there is no one in my Marquis Mansion, right?"

"Major General, don't get excited, I don't mean that! I just want to..."

Before Huo Qiming could explain, Mu Zheng, who was sitting on the main seat, let out a cold snort.

"Oh! Xiao Yu'an, look at me, you are the one who is ridiculous, right? Huo Shao was ordered by Qing to investigate this case, and naturally he wanted to give an explanation to the emperor and the people of God's Capital! It’s all suspicious! Why, the fourth lady of your Hou’s mansion has an imperial order to kill people without paying for their lives?”

"The prince calms down, the dog has no such intention."

In fact, Marquis Chengyang couldn't figure it out, why Xiao Yuan and Mu Zheng were so at war with each other?

But seeing that Mu Zheng was really annoyed, he hurriedly opened his mouth to explain for Xiao Yuan.

"No, then let me step down! How Dali Temple handles the case, how the king inquires, no one else needs to intervene! Otherwise, they will be punished as the crime of picking quarrels and provoking troubles and obstructing public affairs!"

Xiao Yu'an's dissatisfaction was visible to the naked eye.

However, just when he was about to continue arguing with Mu Zheng, Lin Youyi quickly stretched out her hand and pressed it on his arm

Immediately afterwards, Lin Youyi gave Xiao Yuan a wink, signaling him to stop arguing.

"Brother, it's okay. I believe Master Huo must not be targeting me deliberately, but wants to know more details so that he can analyze and solve the case and catch the murderer. Don't worry about it. I don't know much, but if I can If you can help Master Huo, that is also a merit."

"it is good."

Xiao Yu'an patted the back of Lin Youyi's hand, which seemed to comfort her, but it was more like a subconscious act of mutual trust.

Afterwards, Xiao Yu'an didn't argue any more, and took two steps back to sit back in his seat.

In Mu Zheng's eyes, the intimate behavior of the two of them really made him feel like he was on pins and needles, like a pain in his back, like a stick in his throat!
However, Lin Youyi was full of memories of that night, every detail of her and Xiangling.

Therefore, he did not notice Mu Zheng's emotional changes.

She recalled in detail the details of her contact with Xiangling that night.

However, no matter how hard Lin Youyi racked her brains, she still couldn't recall any abnormalities.

In the end, she shook her head in frustration.

"I disappointed Mrs. Huo. I really can't think of anything wrong with Ye Xiangling that night. She spoke cautiously and worked neatly. She only said a few more words when she declined my reward. Except Besides, there is really nothing unusual about her speech or behavior."

"Xiaguan is clear. However, Xiaguan still has a question. I hope Miss Fourth can cooperate."

"Master Huo, you are welcome, please tell me."

"Miss Si, after Xiangling cleaned up your clothes, you went back to the front hall to continue listening to the play, didn't you? Then on the way back to the front hall, did you meet anyone?"

"No……"

"Haven't met a single person?"

"No, I mean... I went to the backyard once in the middle."

"Miss Si, what are you doing in the backyard?"

"The backstage was sluggish, and the front desk was noisy, so I just wanted to go to the backyard to catch my breath."
