Dao fruit.

"And other things?"

Qiu Yan looked at Chen Jing's face, caught some clues from the other's expression, and then turned to look at the servant.

Seeing this from Qiu Yan, the servant shrunk his neck subconsciously, lowered his head and said, "Young one, you are really wronged. You don't know Mr. Qiu Yan at all, let alone gossip."

Hearing this, Chen Jing laughed: "This man has been saying this since he was caught, but the evidence of the crime is solid, even Ma Laoqi has come forward to testify, how can he be allowed to quibble?"

Speaking of this, Chen Jing looked at Qiu Yan: "Brother Qiu, he will definitely go to the Ma Mansion today. Ma Laoqi also knows about this, and it is inconvenient for him to come here directly, so he asked me to send this person here first. Let Brother Qiu take it easy."

Qiu Yan nodded, looked at the servant again, and said, "Brother Chen, please tell Mr. Ma Qi, Qiu will take note of this matter, thank you for your help."

After listening to Chen Jing's narration, he probably sensed the thoughts of the seventh child of the Ma family. He knew that the other party was expressing kindness, but because of the incident, he couldn't come here in person. Make friends.

However, Qiu Yan was also puzzled. Although this person was a tell-tale, he was from the Ma family after all, so why didn't Ma Lao Qi punish him himself, and explain the matter when Qiu Yan came to visit the mansion?

"Could it be that this is used to test my attitude?"

At this time, Chen Jing patted his forehead and said: "Look, I'm confused. That Ma Laoqi has a single name of 'Shou', which means Huizheng." He looked at Liu Zhanpeng again and smiled. "As for Brother Zhanpeng, he has a warm heart. After knowing these things, he took the initiative to help."

"Thank you Brother Zhanpeng." Qiu Yan took the opportunity to express his gratitude.He also saw that Liu Zhanpeng was a low-key person, and he should have something to talk about when he came here this time, so he came here first to show his face and get in touch with Qiu Yan.

Liu Zhanpeng smiled slightly: "Where, where, in recent letters, my father often mentions you, Brother Qiu, so much praise. Let me get closer to you. It's also good to be close to Zhu Zhechi."

"Okay. Don't be polite anymore. Brother Qiu has something to do later, so we won't waste time." Chen Jing said as he walked out the door, and then ordered the servant to let the boy go. "This man has a little bit of strength. If he thinks he won't be noticed by Brother Qiu, he won't have to fight around the door. When he has the opportunity in the future, he will ask Brother Qiu for advice. After all, it will happen in a month or so. By then, you and I may join hands."

Hearing the last sentence, Qiu Yan's heart skipped a beat, he squinted his eyes, looked at Chen Jing's back, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Since Brother Chen has a heart, Qiu must accompany him."

Chen Jing waved his hand, and walked past the corner of the inn, quite casually.

Liu Zhanpeng also cupped his hands and said, "Brother Qiu, then I will take my leave first. I will visit you again in a few days when Brother Qiu is free."

Qiu Yan replied: "In a few days, Qiu will be the host and invite brother Liu to drink."

Saying goodbye to the two, Qiu Yan restrained his smile, recalling what Chen Jing said when he left.

"More than a month later? After more than a month, Xingtan Forum said that those academies will send people to participate, but what Zhen Zhizuo said earlier, Chen Jing is not valued in Lizong, so he may not be able to participate. Then what he said just now, What means?"

Just as Qiu Yan was thinking, a soft sound suddenly came from beside him.

He followed the sound and saw that the young servant had a slightly fearful expression. This person was released by Chen Jing's servants. Seeing that Qiu Yan seemed to be in a daze, he tried to escape. Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the door, he was caught outside the door. Dai Guo blocked the way.

Dai Guo's ferocious face immediately calmed down the servant.

"My son didn't let you go! Be honest!" Dai Guo's words scared the young man back a few steps and returned to the center of the room.

"This..." His forehead was dripping with cold sweat, with a look of pleading on his face, "I really haven't done these things, the villain has been staying in the mansion for the past few days, and I dozed off for some reason last night. When I opened my eyes, I had already arrived at Lizong Academy."

As he spoke, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Qiu Yan: "Young Master Mingjian, the villain is a son of the Ma family, and he has always done his duty. Don't talk about framing the young master, even if it is the young master's face. It’s also the first time I’ve seen it!”

He spoke quickly and his voice trembled, obviously eager to clarify himself.

"Don't worry, speak slowly, I'll ask, you'll answer." Qiu Yan narrowed his eyes, looked at the servant in front of him, and whispered, "You said you were the son of the Ma family, as far as I know, When a child of your family reaches your age, they will usually serve as book boys and long-term followers..."

"Yes, the villain's name is Ma Ling, and now he is the fifth young master's book boy..."

Listening to Qiu Yan's words, the boy was in a trance, feeling drowsy, and couldn't help but speak out what was in his heart.

The memory in his heart gradually unfolded, exuding emotional fluctuations, captured by Qiu Yan, and his life was presented. Qiu Yan examined it carefully, and his thoughts unfolded, as if he was flipping through a book, frowning from time to time.

Judging from those memory pictures, this person is indeed an ordinary family-born child, only slightly literate, but shallow in knowledge, and timid and fearful. .

After learning this, Qiu Yan became suspicious.

"Such a person may be arrogant in front of servants and maidservants who are not as high as him, but he will not offend a Juren and gossip."

Qiu Yan has a reputation for raising people, and in Ma Ling's eyes, he is someone like a lord, and when he meets him, it's too late to flatter him, so how could he chew his tongue.

What's more, after learning about this person's behavior style and knowledge, Qiu Yan couldn't believe that the other party could have the eloquence and thoughtfulness to provoke and make trouble.

"However, since Chen Jing sent this person here, he definitely won't be aimless. There must be something hidden in it."

As Qiu Yan thought about it, his mind turned, and he kept flipping through Xiaosi Maling's memory, and soon found the memory five days ago, but then, the memory and mood swings became chaotic, as if they had become a mess, no longer clear .

"Oh? Here's the problem!"

Noticing the change in memory, Qiu Yan immediately regained his energy, his thoughts turned, his perception enveloped the past, and he searched carefully, but the results he got were not satisfactory——

This boy's memory has become blurred since five days ago, like a scene in a dream. Many memories are disordered and disordered, as if they were stuffed in out of thin air.

"Someone tampered with his memory! Could it be that the seventh son of the Ma family sent him here because of this incident? It is indeed easier to clarify the Ma family than to just listen to other people's narration. suspect..."

Thinking about it, Qiu Yan's heart shuddered, and a little bit of incense and thoughts came out of the hole in his soul, which invaded Ma Ling's heart and went straight into his memory.

As soon as this bit of incense enters the memory, it is like a fast boat cutting through the waves, creating a gap in the chaotic memory and seeping into it.

The next moment, memories about Qiu Yan emerged from it, covering almost every aspect, mainly focusing on the time when Qiu Yan was in contact with Ma Yang.

"Oh? The black hand behind the scenes is really well prepared! He used the method of possession to invade the boy's heart, and then left a memory, which can be read at any time. Only in this way can he be targeted when he sows right and wrong! I just don't know who this person is ? It took so much effort to frame me, when did I provoke such a person? Could it be that they want me to have a bad relationship with Mafu?"

The man behind the scenes was obviously very cautious. Except for the information related to Qiu Yan, many other contents were forcibly erased when he left Ma Ling's body, which caused the other party's memory to be confused. , It will even affect Ma Ling's thoughts, making him gradually become demented!

"It's really ruthless! This Ma Ling went to Lizong Academy last night and was caught on the spot. The person attached to him left in a hurry. He didn't even think that this move would cause this person a lifetime of pain. Life would be worse than death."

Thinking of this, Qiu Yan's thoughts turned, and Xiang Huo's thoughts swayed slightly, sorting out the chaotic thoughts in Ma Ling's soul.

"After all, this person is a disaster for Chi Yu. The real murderer is the person behind it. It is easy for me to sort it out for him. However, even so, there will still be sequelae. However, this is a personal fate."

After sorting out, just when Qiu Yan was about to pull out the incense mind, Ma Ling's soul suddenly swayed, manifesting a blurred back, revealing a deep impression.

"Huh?" Noticing the figure from behind, Qiu Yan felt a sense of familiarity in his heart, but before he could think clearly, the figure disappeared in a flash.

"This can be regarded as an unexpected harvest. The little information left by the possessed person was revealed when the memory was sorted out, but it was only a scrap of claw."

After the perception and thoughts returned, Qiu Yan withdrew his thoughts, remained silent for a long time, and finally shook his head.

"No matter who wants to plot against me, I shouldn't mess up my position and change my plan because of this. I still have to take it step by step. Since that person is malicious and can't plan, he will do it again. Just pay attention , when the time comes, follow the clues, and you will naturally find clues."

As soon as he thought of this, he put these things behind him, and then raised his voice and told Dai Guo outside the door: "You pack up, go to the street with me to buy some gifts, and then bring this person to visit Ma Mansion."

"Ma Mansion? The young master is talking about Ma Lao Xiangguo's mansion? You want to take us with you?" Hu Qi and Dai Guo entered the door with excited expressions on their faces. They had also heard about Ma Yang's reputation.

After getting an affirmative answer, Dai Guo was very excited, but Hu Qi looked at the boy who was spread out on the chair, and asked a little puzzled: "I'm going to leave, what if this person runs away?"

"Don't worry," Qiu Yan replied, "Besides, this person just happened to meet at the right time. I've figured it out a little bit, and it's not much use for him to stay."

Hearing what Qiu Yan said, Hu Qi couldn't say anything more, and the two started to act. Not long after, Qiu Yan walked around the street and prepared a little gift for the stationery.

With the status of the Ma Mansion, the other party will not accept valuable things to avoid suspicion, while other things are flashy, not as practical as this stationery, and it can also show Qiu Yan's attitude.

"Yesterday I asked Han Zhuo to go to Mafu to tell what happened. I don't know what Mafu's attitude is now."
