The beauty raised by Lord Hou is a black lotus

Chapter 54 Next time we meet, I will definitely catch you with my own hands

He Yao had no choice but to patiently say: "Tiansi is looking for the murderer, if His Highness can help find clues, it will definitely leave a good impression on Mr. Gu. So, can Your Highness tell my daughter who the murderer is?"

Seemingly enjoying the feeling of being begged by others, Yuan Chengbi smiled brightly, "I have an agreement with him, and we will never betray each other."

He Yao's eyes moved slightly.

That day at Huijue Temple, in addition to the civil and military officials of Luojing City, there was another person who also came——

Liangzhou robbers.

That is the boy named Kong Shi.

She pondered for a moment, and said seriously: "Your Highness doesn't need to betray him, His Highness just needs to answer me, did the young man kill Guo Fenqin because he had a grudge against Guo Fenqin, or because he had a grudge against the Guo family?"

"Well," Yuan Chengbi recalled for a moment, "from the conversation between him and Guo Fenqin, it should be that he has an enmity with the Guo family—how dare you lie to me?!"

Her face instantly became ferocious and terrifying, as if she was about to eat He Yao alive.

He Yao didn't pay attention to her, her mind had already turned back and forth.

The thief and Guo Fenqin were both from Liangzhou, so it was not impossible for them to form hatred early on.

The wording she used when she asked Princess Nine was "that young man", and Princess Nine did not deny it, so the one who killed Guo Fenqin was indeed a young man, which fits the image of a Liangzhou robber. From this point of view, it is even more likely that the murderer was him Taller.

He Yao lowered her eyelashes in deep thought, her delicate face was covered with a haze.

More than fifty civilians went to Beijing to sue for imperial appeal, but were brutally murdered...

The thief killed Guo Fenqin again...

Is there a possibility that the more than 50 people who want to sue are the Guo family?
The people of Liangzhou did not live and work in peace and prosperity, but lived in dire straits. Guo Duanping, the governor of Liangzhou, concealed the local situation and made beautiful political achievements by lying, so he was promoted to Luojing.

And that robber from Liangzhou couldn't understand the Guo family, so he followed him all the way to Luojing and found an opportunity to kill Guo Fenqin at Huijue Temple...

The puzzle in my mind seemed to have found its thread, and everything became clear and simple.

He Yao made a decisive decision and reported all the clues she knew and her own speculation to Gu Tingzhou.

in the study.

Gu Tingzhou sat behind the writing table, dipping his pen and ink in his hand to copy on the rice paper, "Since Your Highness has seen him, you should know what he looks like?"

The words were spoken to Yuan Chengbi, the Ninth Princess.

Yuan Chengbi sat in front of the desk, holding his face in his hands, his deer eyes were round and innocent, "I forgot."

Gu Tingzhou stared at her like a warning.

Yuan Chengbi bit his lips pitifully, "Little Master Gu staring at him like this makes him feel ashamed and afraid... Why do you force me, I just think about it carefully."

He Yao: "..."

She forgot that the ninth princess came to disturb the marriage between the third princess and Gu Tingzhou.

It's just that such a pretentious look might not catch Gu Tingzhou's eyes.

Yuan Chengbi coughed, and began to describe seriously, "His eyes are as big as a cow, his nose is hooked, and his mouth is full of blood. It's scary!"

Gu Tingzhou: "..."

He Yao: "..."

I always feel like she's talking nonsense.

However, the nine princesses lived in the deep palace for many years, so they should be more timid and cowardly than ordinary little ladies. It is understandable to describe them exaggeratedly because they were frightened by thieves for a while.

Gu Tingzhou immersed himself in painting, "Hooked nose? Is he a barbarian?"

"That's right, he's a barbarian!" Yuan Chengbi stretched out his hand and gestured on his head, "His hair is brown and curly, and it exploded as if it had experienced an explosion. It's such a big mess!"

Gu Tingzhou frowned and finished drawing, "What does he look like?"

He Yao glanced curiously and laughed out loud.

The people in the painting are too ugly!

that person……

It shouldn't be so ugly...

Although he had never seen the real face of the Liangzhou thief, even his voice was disguised, but for some reason, He Yao had an intuition that the other party should be a handsome young man.

Gu Tingzhou glanced at her, "You have fought against him, does he look like this?"

He Yao shook her head slowly, "I don't know, I haven't seen his real face."

Gu Tingzhou stared at her face, paused for a moment, and said slowly: "You seem to have a good impression of him."

He Yao clenched her little hands behind her back slightly.

Gu Tingzhou...

So good at capturing other people's emotions.

Gu Tingzhou smiled, "What did a thief do to make you feel good?"

He Yao rubbed the tip of her nose guiltily, and mustered up her courage to reply: "I just think that a person who subconsciously saves a strange lady, a person who goes thousands of miles to chase and kill corrupt officials for the sake of the common people, may not be a bad person. "

Gu Tingzhou: "He once stole all the way from Liangzhou to Chang'an and stole all the treasures of the eighteen wealthy gentry."

He Yao: "Maybe he gave all the treasures he stole to the poor. If he robs the rich and helps the poor, then he shouldn't be called a thief, he's a hero!"

"Even if it's robbing the rich and helping the poor, it still takes up the word 'robbing' after all. A thief is a thief, and a thief is a thief. Don't tarnish the word 'Xia'. If Guo Fenqin really committed a serious crime, he will be dealt with according to the law. He needs one." Thieves do justice for the sky?" Gu Tingzhou sneered, "He Er, you are an official, he is a thief, you are definitely not the same people. Let me know your thoughts again, Tian Siping, you don't have to wait any longer."

He Yao was dissatisfied, but she didn't dare to talk back.

"What are you doing?"

Suddenly there was a shout from outside the door.

The third princess Yuan Feixing came in with a food box in her arms, and Liu Ye frowned tightly, "You don't go to class, but you are here around Brother Tingzhou, men and women live in the same room, what are you talking about?!"

Yuan Chengbi held his face in both hands, interested, "What is Miss Huang here for?"

"I'm here to deliver snacks to brother Tingzhou." Yuan Feixing said righteously, "I'm not a naughty woman, I'll post up when I see a man... Brother Tingzhou is very hard at teaching, so I should treat him well." He eats snacks."

Yuan Chengbi nodded, "Sister Huang also sent snacks to the other gentlemen, Sister Huang is so kind."

Yuan Feixing: "..."

How could she give snacks to other gentlemen!
Those gray-haired old men are not young and handsome at all, so they don't deserve to eat her snacks!

"Didn't Miss Huang give it to them?" Yuan Chengbi opened Xiaolu's eyes in "surprise", "Miss Huang only sent Master Xiao Gu as a gift? Does Miss Huang love Master Xiao Gu?"

Yuan Feixing's cheeks were flushed, "You are talking nonsense, I have absolutely no dirty intentions towards brother Ting Zhou!"

"It turns out that Miss Huang doesn't admire Master Xiao Gu, so I'm relieved." A blush appeared on Yuan Chengbi's face, "It's very kind of Miss Huang not to rob Master Xiao Gu from me."

"You——" Yuan Feixing stomped his feet angrily, "You talk to me! Brother Tingzhou, don't listen to his nonsense!"

Yuan Chengbi took out the plate of snacks from the food box familiarly, "Brother Tingzhou, try it quickly."

Yuan Feixing almost collapsed, "Who allowed you to call him 'Brother Dingzhou'?!"

Seeing the mess in the study, He Yao slipped out calmly.

She stood on the steps, looking far to the north.

—I can tell you who the murderer is.

--who is it?
——Let me tell you, do you dare to kill?
——As long as you are not lying, then if you dare to speak, I will dare to kill you!

——The other party is an imperial court official.

——Based on who he is, slaughtering people deserves to die!
—I will deal with him myself.

——The state-owned state-law family has family rules. If he makes a mistake, he will naturally be dealt with by law. What is it if you kill someone in private?You are committing a crime and I have the right to arrest you!
——My name is not Hey, but Kong Shi.

That boy from Liangzhou...

He Yao frowned slightly, what kind of past did he carry?

next time we meet...

She gritted her teeth, "The next time we meet, I will definitely catch you with my own hands and ask everything clearly!"

Just when He Yao was thinking about the robbers in Liangzhou, the remote wing of the Imperial College.

The girl pushed open the door.

She stepped into the threshold and looked around. The wing room was clean, and there was no such so-called corpse as Xue Ningyun said.

But she didn't give up.

After searching carefully for a quarter of an hour, she finally found a gold wrench in a crack in the corner.

She leaned over to pick it up, and the gold wrench finger was stained with blood, which had already dried up and turned black.

On the inside of the finger, a name was vaguely engraved——

Guo Fenqin.

The girl's pupils suddenly narrowed.

Tears welled up in her eyes, and she clenched her golden finger tightly in pain, "Brother!"
