Chapter 47

Yang Jikang? !

Lu Xizhi definitely didn't know him. Looking at Yuan Yanxi, his expression was somewhat unpredictable.

So she asked, "Is it the Yang family where Zhang Caixia stayed?"

Yuan Yanxi nodded.

"Then it's even more important to go there, Director Yuan, can you let me go with you?" Lu Xizhi had an intuition that the Yang Mansion was very important.

"It's late today, let's go tomorrow morning."

Lu Xizhi nodded, rolled up her skirt, and squatted down to carefully examine the traces on the ground.

Qi Yong and Zhao Xuanwu turned their eyes away to her somewhat 'sturdy' move, while Yuan Yanxi coughed invisibly and audibly.

The ruins and broken tiles reveal how tragic the night of the crime was. The two children may have cried and quarreled, but they were killed by the murderer. The weak life just disappeared. No matter how romantic Zhang Caixia was, she was her own child, She hugged the two... no, only managed to save one of them, and hugged her tightly, but she still couldn't resist the murderer's cruelty and ferocious fire.

Tsk, but the traces on the bed and on the floor always feel that something is wrong...

Fang Tiesheng said that Fang Daqiang loved the two children very much, but the scene showed that after the fire broke out, Fang Daqiang ignored the two children and Zhang Caixia, and climbed straight to the door, and finally died on the threshold.

Lu Xizhi shook his head, maybe he didn't have the strength to resist, and he just instinctively wanted to seek help outside, which is understandable.

Standing up, she walked to the bed again, her brows furrowed...

"Miss Lu, it's getting late, if you don't go back, Mr. Lu is going to knock on the door of our East Police Department."

After a pause, ah, yes!Dad is still angry with her, but it can't be too late.

"Yes! Thank you Director Yuan for reminding me. I'll go back right away. I'll report to the East Factory tomorrow morning." After finishing speaking, he rushed out the door.

Yuan Yanxi stopped in front of her with a stride: "I promised Mr. Lu that during the period of assisting in solving the case, your safety must be guaranteed. Let's go."

As a result, everyone saw the dignified Factory Governor Yuan guarding the front like a tall and mighty bodyguard, followed by the petite and lovely Third Miss Lu.The factory supervisor jumped into the carriage with a stride, then naturally stretched out his hand from inside, and easily pulled Lu Xizhi onto the carriage.

"Captain, am I dazzled?" Qi Yong muttered in a low voice, "Miss Lu doesn't seem to be afraid of Director Yuan at all."

"Stop talking!" Zhao Xuanwu glanced at the sky, "Yiming, Datian, keep the three of you on guard today, keep your skin tight tonight!"

Palace of Mental Cultivation

"Father, this is the Thousand Leaf Lotus I found. Originally I planned to present it on the Longevity Day, but yesterday I heard that my father had an old cough again. I was really worried, so I thought I would use it today."

"Cough, cough, cough..." The emperor put one hand on his chin, the eunuch Lu Shun beside him kept rubbing his back to ventilate, and the two maids beside him passed tea to one, and spittoon to the other.

"Your Majesty, these are the three flowers that His Highness the Crown Prince dug out by himself in She County, which is five hundred miles away. His Highness wiped off several pieces of flesh with his hands."

"Stop talking! Go down." Prince Qi Yuzhang pretended to be angry, and shouted back the eunuchs around him.

Qi Tianyin cast a glance at his lower son, "...I know you are interested, and you have worked hard these days. I heard that your side concubine is pregnant again. Let the imperial doctor prescribe some anti-fetal medicines and take them back."

Qi Yuzhang hurriedly kowtowed: "Thank you, Father."

Qi Tianyin closed his eyes and began to rest his mind. He didn't hear the sound of his son retreating, so he frowned: "Is there anything else?"

"Father, there was another case in the city the day before yesterday. This time, seven people died at once, and the Longevity Day is five days away. I am worried that such chaos will make the envoys of all nations laugh."

The emperor understood, "Jingming has reported this matter to me, and he knows what to do."

Qi Yuzhang clenched his fingers tightly, leaving deep marks on his palm, and bit his teeth hard. He knew this would be the result, heh!

"Dongchang is responsible for the defense of the city, and the responsibility is heavy. My son thought, since this is an ordinary civil case, why not ask Dali Temple to assist, this will also make Yuan Factory Director more relaxed, and the work will be more effective with half the effort."

Qi Tianyin opened his eyes, with deep inquiry hidden in his sharp eyes: "Jingming will arrange for this matter." The emperor asked the eunuch to adjust the back of the chair for him, and stared at him like a torch: "Yesterday Li Shangshu played, and the Ministry of Rites will pay for the fireworks this time." It seems to have increased greatly, does my son know about this?"

Qi Yuzhang felt chills down his spine, suppressed the panic in his heart, and calmly pretended to be surprised: "There is such a thing? I just came back from She County yesterday. I haven't checked the list yet. I will go to check it tomorrow morning."

"It's so good, let's go, I'm tired too."

The prince hurriedly took the eunuchs out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, retreated to a place where no one was there, and then reached out to touch the cold sweat on his forehead, his eyes were dark and cruel.

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Qi Tianyin waved away the crowd, looked at the dark night, "He, he is still in a hurry."

Lu Shun, the chief eunuch, came up and put a waist guard on him, "Your Majesty is wise."

Second day

At a full hour, Lu Xizhi arrived at the Dongchang Conference Hall on time.

Wow!In addition to a table of delicious food, there is also a handsome factory supervisor in red.

Come across in embarrassment, now I am satisfied.

She said hello to Yuan Yanxi cheerfully, and said hello to Donghai, Xifeng, Nanyang and Beixue next to her. After getting permission, she sat down and began to enjoy the food. She didn't feel any embarrassment at all, so she naturally ignored a few The subtle expressions of the bodyguards.

"Yingxiu has been brought back."

"So fast!" Lu Xizhi had just chewed a mouthful of tender and juicy shrimp dumplings, and the juice was still dripping out.

"I'm just looking for a servant girl. I was already locked in a cage room last night."

"Cage house?"

Yuan Yanxi didn't answer, Donghai knew his temperament, so he took over the conversation: "Miss Lu, the cage house is the prison waiting for trial."

After hearing this, Lu Xizhi was shocked: "What? We just asked her to ask a few words, how can we lock her up? This is against the law."

"Illegal? Miss Lu thinks there is something wrong?"

Lu Xizhi suddenly raised her head, and seeing Yuan Yanxi's cold eyes, she realized that she was a bit reckless.How did the ancients understand this kind of truth? Isn’t it all about using power to suppress people? Forget it, I’ll talk about it later.

"No, no, it's the little girl who's being rude. Governor Yuan calm down." She hurriedly said, "I'm full, let's go to trial Yingxiu."

The cage house is behind the meeting hall. It is a two-story house. It looks very ordinary in appearance, but the strong iron fence makes people daunting.

The first time Lu Xizhi saw Yingxiu, she felt familiar. If you have ever been to a flea market to buy things, you must have met a woman like Yingxiu. She just stood in front of her booth with her hips twisted, wearing The clothes she wore were definitely the most popular and conspicuous style on this street, with heavy makeup and sophisticated posture.As soon as you approach, she will be as enthusiastic as a good sister you have known for a long time, holding your arm, yelling enthusiastically at each beautiful woman, and constantly praising your figure, if you don’t buy anything, it’s useless to ask After paying a high price for a long time, she squinted her eyes and curled her mouth, every cell of her could express her contempt for you.

"Yingxiu." Lu Xizhi called her.

As soon as the words fell, the woman roared: "Who the hell are you? You locked up my old lady all night. I want to report to the police!!"

"Howl, do you know where this is?" Donghai scolded.

"How fierce are you? I don't care where you are. My old lady has experienced many battles and has touched more women than you. What's the matter? Are you still afraid of you, a brat? Your hair hasn't even grown yet!"

The words of the tiger and wolf made several guards blush, especially Dong Hai, who saw his two raised eyebrows suddenly lost their support, waved them on his forehead in a panic, and stopped there in embarrassment .

Lu Xizhi on the side was about to cramp from laughing in his stomach, on the surface he struggled to maintain the modesty of everyone, pretending to be shy and turning his face away, he stared at Yingxiu with interest from the corner of his eye.

"My man has just been involved in a lawsuit. None of you want to scare me. He opened a pawn shop and ate high profits. He didn't give me a penny. If you don't believe me, you can go and investigate and let my mother out!"

Dong Hai was so angry that his nose was about to turn crooked, afraid that he would open the door and beat up the woman, Lu Xizhi took advantage of this and said quickly: "Yingxiu, do you still remember Zhang Caixia?"

The smile froze on Yingxiu's face immediately, and after a few seconds, she asked back: "Didn't you come to me because of my man?"

"You just need to answer my question. Zhang Caixia, who worked as a laundry worker in Yang Mansion with you, remember her?"

Yingxiu thought for a while, then her face suddenly changed: "Zhang Caixia? That coquettish prodigal?"
