I do fortune-telling in ancient astrology

Chapter 173 Who is the murderer?
Lin Xingwei looked up at him, "When did brother return to the capital?"

Seeing that Lin Xingwei was in a stable mood, Wen Lin let her go and said, "It's been two days. I was busy with business and didn't come to see you. I heard that there was an assassin at the Prime Minister's house in the morning. I was ordered to arrest the murderer. When I arrived, I will have a banquet." It's already dispersed, I know the Lin family will definitely go to the banquet, I'm afraid you will be frightened, so I came to have a look."

Lin Xingwei said indifferently: "My mother has already returned, I didn't see the murderer committing the crime, I only saw a man in white jumping over the wall and fleeing."

Wen Lin's chest heaved and his tongue was jerky, and he said, "It's good that you haven't been frightened. Your Majesty ordered the people from Tingwei's Mansion to arrest the murderer. At present, it is speculated that it was a vendetta, and the specifics need to be investigated carefully."

"The streets may still be chaotic for a while, you tell the mansion to keep an eye on the gate, and thank guests behind closed doors for a few days, lest strangers take advantage of the opportunity to break in."

"What about elder brother? Are you the only one leading someone to chase after the murderer? Will it be dangerous?" Lin Xingwei asked nervously.

A murder occurred in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Everyone seemed to be nervous and scared, except for Lin Xingwei who was fine.

Wen Lin looked at her deeply, and said softly: "There are colleagues with me. The prime minister cried a lot in front of His Majesty. I won't rest until the murderer is caught. After the murderer is caught and the case is closed, I will come and see you." Everyone."

"Can I help you?" Lin Xingwei asked with his head tilted.

Wen Lin smiled softly, and asked, "Can you follow me to patrol the streets day and night to chase after the murderer?"

That can't be, she still needs some fame as a woman.

Lin Xing was slightly startled, and said, "How about I disguise myself as a man?"

After speaking, he giggled.

Wen Lin raised his hand and rubbed Lin Xingwei's forehead, and said softly: "Okay, I'm relieved to see that you are safe, let's go home first, I know you are smart, and I will come to you when I need your help .”

"Brother, be careful." After Lin Xingwei finished speaking, he stuffed an oiled paper package into Wen Lin's arms.

It was a sweet fruit served at the banquet in the prime minister's mansion. She had tasted it, and it was very crispy and sweet, so she secretly pretended to take it home and eat it slowly, and give it to her brother now.

Wen Lin smiled happily, his brows and eyes were full of joy, he cupped his hands slightly towards Lin Xing, turned around and jumped on the horse, leading the team to chase after the murderer.

Luo Fu waited at the door and saw that Bao Shang and his party were still standing behind the princess. He didn't say anything. As soon as Bao Shang's people left, he chased Lin Xingwei and asked, "Princess, did Mr. Zhiang send you back?" ?”

Lin Xingwei sighed, and said: "When we meet in the future, don't call him Mr. Zhiang, but call him by your official name, Governor Cao."

Luo Fucai didn't care what his official name was, he said angrily: "At that time, the Prime Minister's mansion was in chaos, I wanted to come in to find the princess, but Mr. Ang said he saw where the princess was and wanted my slave to protect his wife, so he came to look for the princess."

"Madam was worried, so he asked me to follow. When we got to the banquet hall, he asked me to wait at the door. I waited and waited until the princess was gone. After everyone left, the soldiers of the prime minister's mansion surrounded the banquet hall." Later, the slaves found out that Young Master Zhi Ang took the princess and left through the back door."

Lin Xingwei said indifferently: "The front door was crowded with people, that's why he took me through the back door. Where's my mother?"

Luo Fu said: "Biao girl was frightened and emotionally unstable, Madam went to Taiwei's mansion with her."

Lin Xingwei frowned, and said, "Then let's go to Taiwei's Mansion too."

……

Su Ji's face was pale and pale, and she sat paralyzed in front of the short-legged table like a lost soul, not knowing what to do.

Aunt Su was flustered, she still had some ideas, she patted Su Ge on the shoulder, and said, "Go to Yuan's house and watch to see what's going on, Ah Mao, tell the servants in the house not to spread the word News, if rumors spread from our house, cut off your tongue and sell it!"

Mrs. Hou said: "Sister-in-law is right to let people look after the hall. Mr. Yuan was killed at the engagement banquet, I'm afraid it will have the greatest impact on Ah Ji."

Aunt Su turned around with a sad face, knelt down beside Mrs. Hou, and said anxiously: "Sister, our sister is the one who has the most ideas, what should we do now?"

Mrs. Hou thought for a while, and said softly: "Ah Ji doesn't want to marry Yuan Cheng. The Yuan family is very clear about this. Now that Yuan Cheng was killed at the engagement banquet, no matter who the murderer is or what his purpose is, before the murder case is solved, we will I'm afraid the Yuan family will resent and pour dirty water on A Ji."

Aunt Su covered her face and burst into tears, Aji said nervously: "How can you pour dirty water on me, this matter has nothing to do with me!"

Lin Xing patted A Ji's shoulder slightly, and said softly: "I'm afraid that the Yuan family's grievances will have nowhere to vent, and they will just find a scapegoat."

"But the Yuan family and the Su family are better off. If the Prime Minister's family is still sensible, they will not implicate you."

Mrs. Hou said: "Yuan Cheng is the prime minister's most precious grandson, we all have to prepare for the worst, sister-in-law, at this time we must not watch the fire from the other side, we must share the same hatred with the prime minister's family."

"Later today, Ah Ji will go to Yuan's house to guard Yuan Cheng's spirit, and tell my brother to do more when chasing the murderer."

"I'm really confused, I didn't expect this." Aunt Su wiped away her tears and got up to make arrangements, "Hurry up, take the girl to change her clothes and put on mourning clothes! Gather all these festive things at home!"

"Ah Cheng, prepare your manpower, wait for the Taifu to come back and listen to his arrangement to go to the Xiangfu to help..."

Aunt Su prepared everything, and it was late afternoon when Master Su came back, and the news brought back was that people from Tingwei Mansion had already drawn the face of the murderer, and arrested everyone who was singing and dancing today.

Even the Jingshui building was sealed up, and the number of people should be there, but the murderer could not be compared.

Taifu Su drank a cup of tea, moistened his dry tongue, took a short rest, and took Su Ji, who was in mourning, to the Prime Minister's residence for the funeral.

Lin Xingwei and Mrs. Hou were intercepted and interrogated when they came out of Taiwei's Mansion. Fortunately, they met Wen Lin, so the car was not searched.

"Brother, do you want to check here overnight? Have you eaten your dinner?" Lin Xingwei raised the window and asked softly.

She and her mother didn't have time to eat in the Taiwei's mansion, and Wen Lin, who went all the way to investigate the murderer, had no time to eat.

Wen Lin smiled softly, and said to Lin Xingwei: "I will be on duty tonight, and I will eat after I rest."

Wen Lin didn't have enough food all day today, Lin Xingwei really felt distressed.

After returning to Hou's Mansion, Lin Xingwei asked the chef to make more meals and send them to the people in Tingwei's Mansion on the street.

The one for Wen Lin was packed in a separate food box, and there was half an extra chicken in it.

Wen Lin searched various casinos and Yanliu Lane for half a month, but found nothing.

Although Yuan Cheng was a frequent visitor to these places, he was kind to others and did not make any enemies. On the contrary, there were still many people complaining for Yuan Cheng, saying that it is a pity that a good man's life is short.

The real culprit could not be found outside, so the Yuan family pointed the finger at Taiwei's mansion, saying that Su Ji didn't want to marry Yuan Cheng, so they hired murderers to kill.

The two families fell out, how could Taifu Su bear such groundless accusations, so the two families quarreled with the court again.

The Holy One also has a big head.
