Chapter 155
Chu Qing squinted her eyes: "You find someone to go to the Marriage Temple, and ask the host to call out all the information about the monks there before they became monks."

Lord Zhen's eyes lit up: "Do you suspect it's a monk?"

Chu shook his head lightly: "Let's tune it out first, there are other stone temples, if possible, tune them out too."

Master Zhen nodded: "Okay, I'll let someone do it."

Chu Qing went back to the back hall and made out the model of the footprints with mud.

Then he bid farewell to Mr. Zhen.

"Hey, brother Yu, why are you going back so early this time?" Master Zhen was puzzled, he had just finished giving orders, and it was not dark.

Chu Qing didn't hide it from Master Zhen: "I'm going to Liu's Mansion today."

"Liu Mansion?" Master Zhen was stunned, then opened his eyes wide: "Uncle Liu Guo?"

Chu Qing smiled: "Yeah, anyway, I'm also Uncle Guo's staff."

Master Zhen was a little unnatural, and approached: "Brother Yu, are you really?" He thought it was just a rumor.

Chu Qing: "Why, it doesn't look like it?"

Lord Zhen shook his head, then nodded again.

Uncle Liu's actions these years have been unethical, and Yu Xiaochu is a good official in his heart, but why did such a good official get mixed up with Uncle Guo?

But it was difficult for him to say these words: "Then, brother Yu, will you come again tomorrow?"

Chu nodded lightly: "Of course I'm coming. Before noon tomorrow, can Lord Zhen get all the news about those monks?"

The day after tomorrow will be the third six days.

I'm afraid the murderer will strike for the fourth time the day after tomorrow.

Lord Zhen nodded: "I will send more people to do it overnight."

Chu Qing hummed: "Okay."

After she walked out of the Criminal Department, she didn't go to Liu's Mansion immediately. The time she made an appointment with Uncle Liu Guo was at night. Before that, she had to go to Liu's house in Longmen Town.

Today is the first seven days of the former head Liu, who died because of her.

Although he deserved what he deserved, it's okay to go to the incense stick.

Chu Qing had never been to Liu's house in Longmen Town. When she arrived, the butler heard that he was a friend of the current head of the house, so he hurried to report.

Chu Qing shook his head: "No need, I'll go in with you."

The housekeeper froze for a moment, but didn't know whether to let Chu Qing in or not.

Chu smiled lightly: "My name is Yu Xiaochu, I believe your Patriarch said earlier that I would come today."

Sure enough, the housekeeper's eyes lit up immediately: "So it's Mrs. Yu, I'll take you there. The head of the house is now in Aunt Han's yard."

The housekeeper welcomed Chu Qing all the way out of the back house, because the backyard was next, and it was inconvenient for her to go in.

Chu Qing let him in to report.

Not long after, I saw Liu Shui dressed in black, with a white rope tied on his head, walking towards this side in a hurry, seeing Chu Qing, he quickly cupped his hands: "My lord, I didn't expect you to really come, I'm sorry Yuan Ying, I hope you don't blame me."

Chu Qing blocked his hand: "You're welcome, you and I don't need to see each other like this."

Liu Shui was probably busy with the funeral of the former head of the Liu family these few days, and his spirit was not very good. Hearing this, he forced a smile: "I will take you to the mourning hall."

Chu Qing responded, and followed Liu Shui to the mourning hall.

There is a coffin in the center of the mourning hall, with a spiritual seat on top, tributes below, and sandalwood burning around it.

With the lingering smoke, the whole mourning hall is very fragrant.of

Chu Qing took the incense from Liu Shui, bowed towards the coffin, and put the incense in the incense burner.

After Chu Qing finished all this, when she turned around, she found that Liu Shui was wiping her eyes.

The eye circles were also red, and seeing Chu Qing looking over, she was a little embarrassed: "I'm letting my lord see a joke."

Chu Qing shook his head: "Master Liu values ​​affection, which is a good thing."

The former head of the Liu family didn't care about this concubine, and even used him to win over the Xiao family, almost getting into a life lawsuit, but Liu Shui did not forget his roots.

She had a grudge against the former head of the Liu family, but she would not involve anyone else.

Chu Qing followed Liu Shui to the gazebo outside the mourning hall, and the servants served tea and snacks.

After chatting casually for a few words, Chu Qing smelled the aroma of wine on Liu Shui: "Mr. Liu, with his drinking capacity, do you want to use wine to drown your sorrows?"

Liu Shui was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Where, my father just... I don't feel like drinking."

Chu Qing pointed to his wet sleeves, which were strongly smelled of wine.

Liu Shui suddenly realized: "It turned out to be this. You may not know it. Aunt Han...is my biological mother. She used to be a restaurant girl. She liked to make some wine in the yard. My father married her because he drank that wine. Concubine, this time because of my father... she is sad, she has been brewing wine for the past few days, saying that she will make enough wine to be buried with her. I have been helping before, probably at that time I got involved..."

Chu Qing nodded: "Sorrow and change."

Liu Shui shook his head: "A lot of people have come and gone in the past few days, but I have seen a lot of them. Life is like a lamp going out, hey..."

Chu Qing saw that he felt uncomfortable, and said a few more words of relief, and then got up to leave.

Liu Shui hurriedly said, "I'll ask the butler to send you back to Beizhen Fusi."

Chu shook his head lightly: "No need, I have to go to the uncle's mansion."

Liu Shui was stunned: "Huh?"

Chu Qing smiled: "What?"

Liu Shui quickly shook his head: "It's okay, I didn't recover just now, I almost forgot that my lord belongs to Uncle Guo..."

Chu Qing said: "Okay, I'll treat you to a drink another day."

Liu Shui waved his hand: "I don't dare to drink anymore, I was sent back by Mr. Yu last time, but I lost my lord."

Chu Qing also remembered the last time he went to Manchunyuan, couldn't help but his ears turned red, and coughed softly: "Okay, then I won't drink."

Only then did Liu Shui think of one thing: "Speaking of which, I've been busy with the funeral for the past few days, and almost forgot about the murder case. I heard that adults are handling it. How's the progress?" Then he waved his hands as if thinking of something : "Look at me, I'm asking nonsense again, it's inconvenient for you, so don't talk about it..."

Chu shook his head lightly: "It's still broken, I'm afraid it won't be easy."

Chu Qing casually picked up two unimportant notifications, and left quickly.

Liu Shui personally sent her out of the house, watched Chu Qing get into the carriage, and then slowly turned back after a long time.

When Chu Qing arrived at Uncle Guo's Mansion, it was just dark.

Steward Liu was already waiting outside the mansion. When he saw Chu Qing, he quickly stepped forward and welcomed Chu Qing in: "My lord, have you just come from the Ministry of Punishment?"

Chu shook his head lightly: "No, today is the seventh head of the Liu family, and I went to Shangzhuxiang."

Butler Liu was stunned for a long time before he seemed to remember that it was the one from Longmen Town.

If Chu Qing didn't mention it, if Chu Qing didn't mention it, they almost forgot about it.

Uncle Liu Guo was waiting for Chu Qing in the study. After Chu Qing went in, after the door closed and only the two of them were left, he bowed: "Your subordinate has disappointed Uncle Guo."

Uncle Liu threw the booklet in his hand aside: "Where is this talking? You did a good job. Then Zhao Kuiwu was too reckless. He messed up the matter himself. Why are you talking about you?"

At that time, if Yu Xiaochu was not alone, he might be involved.

At that time, he lost another capable subordinate.

Chu Qing lowered his eyes: "But my subordinates still didn't keep Mr. Zhao."

"Him?" Uncle Liu Guo sneered, "I won't talk about him anymore, he's just a fool who did stupid things himself, and almost dragged the old man into it."

If the child's real life experience is exposed, let alone him now, even...

I'm afraid they will all be involved.

Chu Qing looked very guilty: "Uncle Guo's kindness in cultivating his subordinates is unforgettable to his subordinates."

"Look, I don't need you to go up the mountain of swords and go down into the sea of ​​fire. I haven't looked for you these days. It's not that I forgot you. It's just that the current situation is not right, so it's inconvenient to involve you. It's all right now. I heard that the emperor will The serial rape and murder case in Beijing was handed over to you?" Uncle Liu Guo squinted his eyes.

Chu Qing nodded: "It's not considered to be handed over to me, it's with Mr. Zhen of the Ministry of Punishment. The emperor respects his subordinates, so the subordinates will contribute their strength."

Uncle Liu Guo laughed twice: "Okay! The old man is right. You should handle this case well. If it is really solved, this case alone will give you another promotion!"

At that time, he will put people into Jinwuwei, where most of the emperor's people are.

After his people went in, it became easier to handle.

Chu Qing looked at Uncle Liu "gratefully" and said, "Thank you, Uncle Guo!"

Uncle Liu Guo nodded: "Is there any difficulty in this case?"

Chu Qing nodded: "It's not easy, this murderer's tactics are very sophisticated..."

Chu Qing probably talked about the case with Uncle Liu Guo, detailing everything, and after finishing talking, Uncle Liu Guo's eyes lit up: "You mean, it is very likely that there will be No. 4 murderer in two days? "

Chu Qing: "Yes, judging from the previous times, the murderer will kill one person every six days, but maybe it's just a coincidence."

But even if there is only a one-thousandth possibility, Chu Qing will not put one more victim in danger.

Uncle Liu Guo stood up: "Then just pretend you don't know."

"Huh?" Chu Qing raised her head in surprise, "Uncle Guo, what is this...?"

Uncle Liu Guo said: "Why don't you understand, young man? Let's make the matter big first, and then you will be more famous if you successfully crack the case. This will be more conducive to the old man's promotion of you, do you know?" It will cause panic, and many people will die by then. If Chu Qing successfully solves the case, it will definitely have a certain influence as before.

Chu Qing lowered her eyes to cover a dark light in her eyes: "Uncle Guo, I have also considered this idea, but I think it is better to solve this matter as soon as possible. Because this case is now being solved by Master Zhen and I , If I can’t break it, I’m afraid I will offend the emperor, thinking that I’m not doing my best on purpose. As for the reputation, speaking of it, I thought of a way to help the uncle of the country and the son of the world to gain a good reputation.”

Uncle Liu Guo was not very happy when he heard the first half of the sentence, but he was taken aback when he heard the second half: "What can I do?"

Chu Qing: "Uncle Guo, didn't I say earlier that when we tracked down the second victim, the one who was used by the murderer to lure the victim to West Street was a little beggar?"

Uncle Liu Guo nodded: "Yes, the one named Xiaohuzi, what's the matter?"

Chu Qing said: "This subordinate has thought of a way to make Uncle Guo famous."

Uncle Liu Guo came alive: "What way?"
