I do fortune-telling in ancient astrology

Chapter 172 At the murder scene, I was taken away by my ex-boyfriend

Lin Xingwei couldn't help looking at Cao Yi, Cao Yi said: "Mrs. Nanyang Hou knows that I'm here to pick you up. Now that the front door is crowded, I'll let my carriage wait here. Get in the carriage, and I'll take you back."

"Where is Luo Fu?" Lin Xingwei asked, Luo Fu accompanied her in the morning, Luo Fu must still be looking for her.

Cao Yidao: "Just now it was confusing, Luo Fu was with Madam Hou of Nanyang, Luo Fu knew about it when I was talking to Madam Hou."

Only now did Lin Xingwei get into Cao Yi's carriage, and Cao Yi immediately followed.The coachman turned his horse's head and walked on another road.

There was silence for a while, only the sound of the wheels creaking and creaking, Cao Yi opened the window and looked, and even the street began to be in chaos.

He said casually: "Yuan Cheng was stabbed in the heart with a knife, and the whole dagger went in. It should be impossible to save him."

He added: "I saw it with my own eyes."

Lin Xingwei frowned, and asked: "Who dares to assassinate in the prime minister's mansion? It's really daring."

Cao Yi put down the window, looked at Lin Xingwei with a calm expression, and said softly: "I guess it should be a vendetta. Yuan Cheng's unrestrained behavior outside must have offended someone."

"The murderer was among the actors, and no one noticed. Who would have thought that Yuan Cheng would dance among the actors. If he had behaved better and sat in his own seat, the murderer would have no chance to get close."

"The Tingwei Mansion is busy now."

When mentioning Tingwei Mansion, Lin Xingwei first thought of Wen Lin, and said worriedly: "My brother hasn't come back from Beihai County yet!"

Cao Yi smiled, and said softly: "The murder case in the prime minister's mansion is a big deal. Now that there is no one in the Shangdu mansion, and the Tingwei mansion is also short of staff, this case is even more difficult to handle."

Lin Xing gave him a sideways glance, and said, "No one is handling the case, you seem very happy?"

Cao Yi still kept smiling, with a sly look in his eyes, and asked: "Could it be that only Tingwei Mansion and Shangdu Mansion can arrest the murderer?"

Of course not, the soldiers in the Prime Minister's Mansion already have a brigade, and there are so many generals in the capital, so naturally the murderer will not escape.

Cao Yi said again: "In such an important case, if someone catches the murderer, wouldn't there be a chance for promotion and fortune?"

Lin Xingwei looked at him quietly, Cao Yi really changed, such a serious murder case in his eyes became an opportunity for promotion and fortune.

After a while of silence, she asked, "Will you help chase the murderer?"

Cao Yi restrained his smile, with a delicate and handsome appearance, he asked in a deep voice: "Aren't you happy about my promotion?"

"...With the friendship between us, I thought you would be happy for me."

"Are you happy?" Lin Xingwei asked.

Cao Yi was startled, and said lightly, "Not happy."

Lin Xingwei asked back: "Then why should I be happy for you?"

Cao Yi let out a long sigh, and said leisurely: "How can I feel happy after losing my beloved? Only when I devote myself to official career, mingling in the officialdom, and being busy, can I not feel empty in my heart."

His eyes darkened, he frowned and said again: "I have dozens of courtyards, but there is no place for my soul to rest, how can I feel happy?"

Lin Xingwei asked indifferently: "You worked hard to befriend the powerful and powerful, did you put in all your effort to get promoted in order to prove it to your father and brothers?"

"...In the past, everyone said that you were weak-tempered and couldn't afford big things. Now that you have become a sheriff at a young age, people of your age envy you."

Cao Yi smiled wryly, "Does the princess really think they are envious of me? The princess didn't see it when they laughed at me behind my back. I envied me when I was weak in the past."

He looked at Lin Xingwei with affection in his eyes, and said, "That was the happiest time of my life. Am I doing nothing in the capital? I don't think so."

"I practiced Yaoqin with the princess in the play building, served as the county magistrate in Danyang, and served as a meritorious service officer in Bingzhou. Although my official career is not going well, the correspondence with the princess is the luckiest thing in my life!"

He said painfully again: "Unfortunate fate, separating me from the princess is the greatest regret in my life. The princess is like a light that illuminates my life. Once you leave, my life will be dim..."

He took a long breath and continued: "I don't care what others say about me. You can't have both, I lost my love, so I have to work hard to be the same."

"I became the prefect of a county when I was less than [-] years old. I can do a lot in the officialdom and have a bright future. It's not in vain that I abandoned the princess."

Tears welled up in Cao Yi's eyes, and he smiled wryly and said, "If I divorce the princess and only get the favor of Fangzhou Mu, then I'm not at a big loss? If I want to do it, I'll do it to the extreme, and I'll rise up step by step, so I won't regret it Retired with the Princess."

Lin Xingwei's eyes were slightly red, he turned sideways, and said softly: "Keep these words in your heart, don't tell me any more."

"It's true that you shouldn't talk about this with the princess. The princess must be very happy to be able to walk with General Wei again." Cao Yi asked softly.

"Well, General Wei is very kind to me."

Lin Xingwei calmed down, turned around and looked at Cao Yi with a smile on his face, and said, "It is my good fortune to be favored by General Wei. I will never regret marrying him in this life."

"That's good."

Cao Yi lifted the window, looked out of the window, speechless for a long time.

The carriage was approaching the gate of the Hou Mansion, Cao Yi looked at the wall of the carriage, and when the carriage stopped, he turned around and said: "I still have something to do, so I will send the Princess here."

"Thank you." Lin Xingwei got up and got out of the car. The driver turned his horse's head and quickly disappeared from Lin Xingwei's sight.

Lin Xingwei stood silently on the street for a long time before walking towards the Hou Mansion.

Bao Shang came after him with his men and saw Lin Xingwei hastily jumped off his horse. He said, "If the princess doesn't come back, I will go to the prime minister's mansion to look for it."

"I'm back. Do you have any news about the murderer?" Lin Xingwei asked.

People in Shangdu are always well-informed.

Bao Shang's mask moved, and he was frowning just by guessing. He said: "I heard that there was an assassin in the prime minister's mansion, so I just wanted to find the princess, so I couldn't care less about finding out the murderer's whereabouts."

"I'm back safely. You should go and investigate. This is a big matter. His Majesty will definitely go to the capital to assist in the investigation. Don't ask questions." Lin Xingwei said and walked forward, Bao Shang and his party Follow closely.

"slowly!"

Lin Xingwei was about to lift her clothes up the steps when she heard Wen Lin's voice, she stopped and turned her head to look for the voice.

Wen Lin jumped off the horse and hugged Lin Xingwei, as if he was going to insert her into his body, and whispered in Lin Xingwei's ear, "Are you scared?"

Bao Shang glared at Wen Lin hatefully, fortunately he was the princess's brother, otherwise he would have rushed forward and pulled him away from the princess.

None of our generals can hug the princess, yet you still hug the princess so tightly.

Lin Xingwei didn't see the murderer kill with her own eyes, so she wasn't very frightened. She was flustered because everyone was flustered, and she panicked too.
