Chapter 9 What a pity
In the middle of the night it started to rain.

The spring rain in Jiangling was soft and silent, yet continuous and dense. When Ye Chutang went to close the window, a few drops of rainwater splashed from his sleeves.

She raised her eyes inadvertently, and from the corner of her vision, she saw that the candles in the opposite room were still burning quietly, outlining a tall and elegant silhouette.

"The son of a rich family really spends money..."

These candles were lit more than others, and they were brighter.

Ye Chutang murmured and closed the window.

So she didn't see it, and after a while, the candle on the opposite side was also extinguished.

Lian Zhou asked strangely: "Master, did you rest so early today?"

Shen Yanchuan chuckled.

"If you live under someone's fence, you naturally have to abide by their rules."

……

It rained all night.

The next day, Ye Chutang was still sleeping when he heard Ye Yunfeng's voice outside: "Sister! Sister!"

Ye Chutang turned over and said lazily:
"Don't make noise, Xiao Wu is still asleep."

Xiao Wu, who had been sitting up and playing for a while, blinked his eyes, then lay down obediently with his buttocks pouted, and leaned next to Ye Chutang.

Ye Yunfeng hesitated for a second, but continued: "It's a big deal! Sister, come out!"

Lian Zhou looked at this scene in the yard, feeling a little strange.

"It's so early in the morning, what are you doing?"

Seeing the excitement and excitement on that kid's face, could it be something good?

Shen Yanchuan was changing his dressing, and the two wounds on his chest and lower abdomen had begun to heal.

He raised his sword eyebrows slightly, and a little surprise flashed in his eyes.

This injury lasted for half a month. Because it was infected with poison, it festered repeatedly and could not be healed. Even the doctors in Beijing had a headache.

Unexpectedly, after only two days in this small clinic, there was a significant improvement.

This Doctor Ye... really has some hidden skills.

Hearing Lian Zhou's words, he didn't raise his head, and said casually, "It seems that the murderer has been found."

Lian Zhou was taken aback: "So fast!?"

The Cao family came to make trouble yesterday. Although he didn't go out to see it, he heard it clearly with his deep internal strength.

Died from food allergies is very difficult to investigate, especially if someone deliberately did it, it is even more difficult to find evidence and truth.

How could the real culprit be found overnight?

However, the next moment, Ye Yunfeng's excited voice came over.

"Sister! They said that the person who stole river shrimp for Cao Chengwu has been found!"

Lian Zhou was startled, and when he turned around, he saw that his master's expression was still calm and calm, without any surprise, obviously he had expected it.

This--

squeak-

The door was pushed open, and the awakened girl came out.

Shen Yanchuan raised his eyelids slightly, and glanced over there, his eyes slightly focused.

She originally had an extremely gentle and beautiful appearance, but at this time, between her distant mountain eyebrows was a somewhat lazy and tired look, and her black hair was simply tied up with a wooden hairpin. In the pattering spring rain, she looked like a flower Begonia that never woke up.

Hazy and inexplicably inviting.

"I found it if I found it. What are you so excited about?" She raised her hand to cover her lips and yawned softly, "Ah Feng, you are so noisy."

Shen Yanchuan withdrew his gaze calmly, and the laziness in his voice wafted to his ears, as if a feather had been rubbed lightly, a little itchy.

Ye Yunfeng scratched his head embarrassingly: "Sister, I know I shouldn't disturb your sleep, but I'm so happy!"

He pulled Ye Jingyan who was next to him, "Third brother! Tell me!"

Ye Jingyan originally wanted to wait for Ye Chutang to wake up before coming back, but the fourth child was impatient and didn't hold back for a while.

Meeting Ye Chutang's gaze, he straightened out his thoughts and said, "I was going to go shopping in the morning. When I walked to the street, I heard someone say that the person who killed Cao Chengwu had been arrested. It was either someone else or Cao Chengwu." Liu Si at home. He is Cao Chengwu's servant. Last night, when Cao Chengwu delivered supper, he secretly put river prawn meat in it. Later, he made a special excuse to send other people away. There was no one, just died so quietly."

Ye Chutang raised her eyebrows slightly: "It's only been one night, and it's so clear?"

Ye Yunfeng couldn't hold back, and his eyebrows were beaming: "Sister, you must have never thought of it! The reason why the people in the yamen searched so quickly is because someone sent an anonymous report letter last night!"

The corners of Ye Chutang's lips curled up: "Oh?"

Ye Yunfeng punched his palm, feeling excited: "I heard that they went to Liu Si's house overnight, and sure enough, they found the clothes he wore when he went to the lake the day before, and some river shrimp shells! He secretly went to Liu Si's house the night before yesterday. Catching shrimp in the lake, I accidentally cut a big hole in my leg, and I didn't dare to say anything! I didn't expect to be found out!"

Ye Chutang looked at the cloudy sky.

"Just one letter is not enough evidence."

Speaking of this, Ye Yunfeng became even more excited: "Who said it wasn't! So the people from the yamen went to the lake early in the morning, and they found Liu Si's strip of clothes that had been scraped off! The evidence was convincing, and Liu Si knelt down to admit it on the spot. !"

Ye Chutang nodded, "It was raining, and it was really hard to go to the lake to find evidence. I have to thank the officers and men when I look back."

She thought she would have to wait half a day.

However, high efficiency is good. When it rains, many traces will be washed away. If the delay is too long, it may not be so smooth to find things.

Ye Yunfeng asked in surprise: "Sister, aren't you surprised?"

He didn't sleep well last night. Although his suspicions were clarified, it was a human life after all. How can a 12-year-old boy act as if nothing happened?
Ye Chutang flicked his forehead.

"As for people, we didn't kill them in the first place, but they were implicated due to bad luck. Now the truth is revealed, isn't it just right?"

Think so much to do.

Ye Yunfeng rubbed his forehead, and felt that what his elder sister said was right, but something seemed wrong.

In his opinion, what happened this time is really a big trouble, but in the eyes of sister, these seem to be nothing, not even worth delaying her from sleeping late.

Moreover, he took it for granted that the matter would be resolved calmly and calmly... He had never seen it in others.

As if everything was as it should be.

It is inexplicably reassuring.

Ye Jingyan and Ye Chutang looked at each other and asked, "Sister, what shall we do next?"

Ye Chutang said: "Go to the Yamen."

Ye Yunfeng opened his eyes wide: "I still want to go? But doesn't this matter have nothing to do with us?"

Ye Chutang asked: "Liu Si is Cao Chengwu's servant, why did he kill him?"

Ye Yunfeng was a little hesitant: "It seems, it seems that because Cao Chengwu beat and scolded them all the time, Liu Si already had resentment in his heart, so he was motivated to kill him!"

"Murder pays for life." Ye Chutang propped up an oil-paper umbrella, and the rain splashed down, forming a thin layer of white mist on the ground, "The sky is probably falling in Liu Si's house right now?"

she whispered.

"Now, orphans and widows, it's really pitiful."
