    The sky quickly darkened, but Lin Xiao didn't appear for a long time. Qin Yao gradually became a little anxious, and from time to time she opened the car curtain and looked out.

    Qing Xuzi's face tensed up. After Qin Yao opened the curtain for the hundredth time, he finally couldn't help but snorted loudly: "If he is really here, we will all know it, so there is no need to look out all the time."  ! Just stop for a while!¡±

    Qinyao hurriedly stuck out her tongue and returned to her seat honestly.

    Qing Xuzi continued to complain: "You are so young, but you are so dishonest. It's okay if you don't come. Why make us wait in vain for more than an hour!"

    Qin Yao was busy with Smiley Face: "Didn't he send someone over a long time ago to send a message? He said that he might be a little late because of something unexpected, so he didn't have to ask us to wait for him?"

    I don¡¯t know what mechanism these words triggered in Qingxuzi. The old man¡¯s chat box suddenly opened up: "When a man walks in the world, a letter is more important than his life. Look at me, Master. How often do I not keep my word? When do I not?  Do you handle things entrusted by others properly? Take for example the strange incident that happened to the Jiedushi family in Luzhou last year" He kept talking endlessly.

    Qin Yao secretly curled her lips, you, the old man, are doing things for others, but when did you not receive the money?

    Thinking of this, Qin Yao suddenly felt a little confused.

    Normally, Master has made a lot of money over the years, but where has all the money gone?  Qingyun Temple is in a dilapidated state and has never been willing to repair it. Even the incense gathering held every year in ordinary Taoist temples, Master is too lazy to organize it.  He was scratching and scratching everywhere, and he didn't have the demeanor of a famous man in the world at all.

    Both are monks, but the abbot Yuanyin Temple of Dayin Temple is much more impressive than the master. He renovates the temple every five years, holds lectures every three to five years, visits the palace, makes friends with powerful people, and lives a prosperous life in Chang'an City.  Come on, really speaking, this is called making money in the right way.  But as for Master, it was not easy for him to find a high-ranking official. He finished his work, collected the money, and left immediately. He didn¡¯t even touch anyone, let alone take the opportunity to praise Qingyun Temple, which made Qingyun Temple just a mere  This is a small Taoist temple, but its scale lags far behind the Dayin Temple founded in the same year.

    So, does Master love money or not?

    Qinyao looked at Qing Xuzi secretly.

    A sudden gust of wind blew outside the curtain, bringing in a bit of cool moisture. Ahan put down the shortbread he was eating, raised his head in surprise and said, "Hey, it's raining."

    Qin Yao opened the curtain, and sure enough, the sky was gray, and raindrops were falling down like catkins, falling on her face, light and soft, really worthy of the word "misty rain".  Unfortunately, this beautiful picture did not last long. The rain soon became heavier. It was as if a hole had been ripped open in the sky. The raindrops gathered into large rain pillars and poured down.  In the blink of an eye, there was only a vast expanse of white.

    It was the first rain in spring, but it came so urgently. Qinyao hurriedly lowered the car window, shook the raindrops on her arms, and said dejectedly: "Let's not wait any longer. If the rain is so heavy, the prince will probably not be able to come.  "

    "Huh! It should have been like this! I waited in vain for most of the night." Qing Xuzi moved his legs that were stiff from sitting for too long, and angrily told the coachman, Old Liao, "Go back to Qingyun Temple!"

    Just as the carriage was about to start, Ahan suddenly turned his head and lowered his voice: "Listen, there is the sound of horse hooves!" Ahan's five senses are sharper than those of Qinyao and Qingxuzi, and he can often perceive things that the two of them cannot.  Abnormal movement.

    Qin Yao hurriedly listened carefully, and sure enough, she could distinguish the sound of horse hooves in the chaotic sound of rain. The sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer, heading straight in this direction.  She opened the window and tried her best to look out through the rain. She could vaguely see a person riding a horse speeding through the rain. He was very fast and ran to the carriage in a short while.

    Qin Yao's face was filled with joy, and she waved hurriedly: "Your Majesty!" She quickly opened the car curtain and greeted him to get in the car.

    As soon as Lin Xiao came in, there was a cool breeze, and the clothes on his body and the shoes and socks on his feet were all soaked.

    After taking off his cloak, there were still raindrops flowing down his black hair, which made his skin as white as jade and his eyebrows as handsome as picturesque.

    He wiped the raindrops from his face, looked at Qin Yao apologetically and said, "Sorry, I'm late."

    As he spoke, the dim car lights cast a shadow on the bridge of his straight nose, and his paint-like eyes were deeper than usual. For the first time, Qinyao realized that the man in front of her was so handsome, and she forgot to answer the question for a moment.  After being stunned for a while, he said: "It's time for us to say we're sorry. It's really troublesome for the Crown Prince." As he said this, he wondered why his face was so hot.

    Lin Xiao apologized to Qing Xuzi again.

    Qing Xuzi nodded, stood up and returned the greeting, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty is indeed a man who honors his promises and keeps his word, which really impresses me." He completely forgot how he had disparaged the other party.Qin Yao looked at the wet clothes on Lin Xiao's body with concern: "Your Majesty, your clothes are soaked through. You may catch a cold in a while, so you'd better find a place to change clothes first."

    A faint smile appeared in Lin Xiao's eyes, and he nodded and said: "Liu Zan, the minister of Dali Temple, is still waiting for us inside. He must have a change of clothes. Let's go in first."

    Several people entered the Dali Temple and saw several officials waiting in the hall. One of them, a middle-aged man with a pale face, was sitting behind the case, looking through the files under the light on the case.

    Seeing Lin Xiao come in, he hurriedly got up from behind the case, strode towards us, and asked in surprise: "Why are you wet like this?" He walked closer and said: "I still have a few clean clothes in the room. If you want  If you don¡¯t mind it, how about changing into it first? Otherwise, I¡¯m afraid you¡¯ll catch a cold.¡±

    Lin Xiao called him "Liu Gong" and said with a smile: "I just wanted to ask you for some clothes." This handsome middle-aged man was Liu Zan, the minister of Dali Temple. He was one of the nine ministers of the dynasty. He heard that Lin Xiao  Xiao said so and immediately took him to the back hall to change clothes.

    This was the first time Qin Yao entered such a high-level government agency and she couldn't help but look around quietly.  The interior of the hall is solemn and majestic, but unfortunately the lights are too dim and the colors are too dark, making it appear somewhat gloomy for no reason.  She secretly opened her eyes, looked into the darkness, and saw a few strands of souls floating around, lingering around several officials. Seeing Qin Yao discovering them, they disappeared into the darkness with a whoosh.

    The old monk Qingxuzi sat in trance, as if unaware, but Ahan saw the scene clearly and knew that there was no need to pay more attention to these wandering ghosts, so he just smiled naively and blinked at Qinyao.

    After a while, Lin Xiao came out in a pair of ocher red casual clothes. Qin Yao rarely saw him wearing such a rich color. Not only was he not tacky, but he was a bit more calm and chic than usual.

    While leading Lin Xiao and others to the mortuary, Liu Zan said: "After you told me this morning, I sent someone to bring the files of these two women for questioning. The name of the woman whose throat was dug out was  Xue Li'er, the top singer in Chunyingfang, was 16 years old. She was found dead in Qiulin Lane of Pingkangfang ten days ago. She was later transferred to our place from Chang'an Zhaofu Prison. This woman has no family and has been tortured since she was a child.  She was sold to Chunyingfang and signed a death deed. The people who came to record the confession that day were Bai Mingzhu, the proprietress of Chunyingfang, and several good sisters of Xue Li'er."

    "According to their confessions, one month before the accident, Xue Li'er had gone out from time to time for excuses, and she would go out for half a day and return at dusk. The boss lady didn't feel anything was wrong at first, but then she gradually became suspicious, so she sent someone to follow Xue Li'er quietly, but  Every time I followed him halfway, I would always get lost for no reason. Fortunately, not long after, Xue Li'er would return to Chunyingfang without delaying the performance in the evening, so the proprietress had to give up for now. Xue Li'er's roommate sisters said that Xue Li'er's behavior before the accident was unusual.  Wei, chatting and laughing with them as usual, and didn't seem to have any unsolvable worries.

    "Another woman whose eyes were dug out was named Lin Yaoniang. Her body was found in Weiranju yesterday and was later transferred to our company from Yushitai Prison. She was also sold to Wenniang, the proprietress of Weiranju, since she was a child.  . However, according to Wen Niang, Lin Yao Niang has not officially received guests yet. She only studies folk arts in the hotel on weekdays. Because she is extremely beautiful, she is occasionally invited by other wine shops to accompany her at a high price. "

    Qinyao nodded secretly, no wonder she saw Lin Yaoniang in Donglaiju that day.

    Liu Zan continued: "Wen Niang said that before Lin Yao Niang's accident, Lin Yao Niang had not met any strangers and rarely moved around, so there was nothing suspicious. However, Wen Niang had previously given perjury at the Yushitai and framed the wife of the King of Household Affairs.  Lang Jun is the murderer and is now in prison. The trial will be held tomorrow, so her previous confession is of reference value."

    Lin Xiao nodded and thought: "These two women were killed one after another, and they were both lowly women from Pingkangfang. Is there any evidence to prove that they were killed by the same person?"

    ¡°This¡ª¡± Liu Zan pondered, ¡°we will have to wait until Wen Niang is interrogated tomorrow before further deliberation.¡±

    While they were talking, they had already arrived at the mortuary. The officials in front of the door saw several people approaching and hurriedly led them into the room.

    When a few people entered, they saw that Nuo Da's room was empty. Only two bodies covered with white cloth were parked in the middle of the room. It was thought that the officials had specially placed the bodies of the two women separately after Liu Zan's instructions.

    The first thing Qing Xuzi looked at was Xue Li'er's body.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????)  In particular, the wound at the throat was as big as the mouth of a bowl, with bone deep enough to almost cut the woman's neck in two.

    Qingxuzi twirled his beard in silence for a long time, turned around, and went to look at Lin Yaoniang's body again.

    Lin Yao Niang died not long ago, and her body still had no odor, but her hair was messy, her face was as pale as paper, and her eye sockets were bloody and bloody. She looked three points more terrifying than Xue Li'er.

    Qin Yao walked to Qing Xuzi and whispered: "Master, have you seen that there is no resentment around these two women? If it weren't for the two horrific wounds on their bodies, no one would have thought that they were both injured.  Killed to death.¡±

    Qing Xuzi did not comment, pondered for a while, and then told Qin Yao: "Bring the Master's Wuya Mirror."
