Chapter 9

Title: God of Fortune

Summary: Is Chu Ming helping the evildoers or is he a good person?

I thought for a while and said, "Yes, the official arrowheads are not limited to Yan San, and even Marquis Wei made these swords, guns, swords, halberds and official arrowheads for the emperor."

Shen Lian said: "It's another profitable business."

His fingers tapped the table rhythmically, his face full of thought.I still can't figure it out.Everything seems to be a bureau, both a puzzle and a dead situation.It seems that there are clues such as a woman's testimony and an arrow, but they are almost led into a misunderstanding.

Who was Chu Ming murdered by?What exactly caused his murder?

Xiao Shenlian was obviously also confused, and asked me: "What are you going to do now?"

This time I answered straightforwardly: "Sleep."

"Sleeping?" His surprise was rare for his age.The cat's eyes are wide open, making people want to pinch it twice.

I resisted the urge, given the hurt on my palm.

"Yes, go to sleep. Don't think about it now if you can't figure it out, and talk about it after you rest. You will always figure it out in the future."

I dragged Wei Yan out of the shadows and said to him, "You sleep on the outside of the big bed in the inner room."

The taciturn young man quietly moved to the outside and lay flat, and Shen Lian slept alone on the small bed outside.

When I closed the small window in the outer room, I found a bird parked on the window sill. It was petite and cute, and its whole body was snow-white.This sweetbird is not afraid of me. I poked the little thing's fluffy belly a few times with my fingers, and it flapped its wings reluctantly and flew away.

Before I close my eyes, I think that Chu Ming's death will always be figured out in the future.But I didn't expect that the key to figure it out came so quickly, not even after a day.

There must be a way to the front of the mountain.

Now I'm in the car and it's bumpy.

I struggled to open my eyes, the surrounding was very dark, but I could barely see.I'm not in the car, I'm on the back of a tall black Kunlun slave.

The light source comes from the ground, and a luminous pearl is inlaid on the front of the pink embroidered shoes. The arch of the foot is bent, and the socks are not pulled properly, revealing a little tender skin, which is lovely.

"Idiot, don't come down quickly, what are you looking at?"

Hearing this, I jumped to the ground, accidentally rubbed my hand against the uneven stone wall, and quickly retracted in pain.Looking around, he was in a cold and damp secret passage.

The girl urged again: "Follow me quickly, I will be punished if I delay."

She brushed past me and twisted my waist hard.Leading the way, twisting her waist and swinging her hips intentionally or unintentionally along the way.At the end of the journey, she pressed the button on the wall of the secret passage, and a large soft light was cast on her head.She reached out and pulled me up, and as soon as I got up, I fell into a pile of soft pillows.Lying halfway on the luxurious bed was a beautiful woman in palace dress, disheveled, who seemed to be looking at me affectionately.The beauty in palace costume sat up and straightened her clothes, but the act of tidying made people jump on her. Her very existence was an irresistible temptation.

But I was almost scared to death.

Isn't this the Weihou concubine Lingxian who both Chu Ming and I have treated?

She leaned over and took a shallow breath on my neck: "Did my servant bother you along the way? She was insulted by an old bastard who came to Weihou's mansion when she was a child. After entering the mansion, she has no chance to meet normal men. She is a poor person." .Don't take it to heart."

I scratched my itchy neck and asked, "How did Madam find my wing?"

Lingxian said: "Did you see a white bird before going to sleep tonight?"

I said, "Is that Chu Ming's? No wonder it's not afraid of me."

Lingxian said: "Yes, the last time he came a month ago, he was determined to stop doing such unconscionable things. He said he had the key to the Hemu Medical Center. Sprinkle special spices on it. Every day, I let the fragrant bird he left here fly around, and then asked the maid to go out to find the bird. Today the fragrant bird stopped in your wing. Every room in the Weihou Mansion There are secret passages connected under the side rooms for the use of the shadow guards and the Wei family."

I said, "What is the lady looking for me for?"

Lingxian said, "I'll give you a brochure on Doctor Chu's diagnosis and treatment of children." She got up and took out a brochure from a soft pillow embroidered with osmanthus trees.

I opened it up and saw the birthplace of the name. It was his strange roster with the birthplace of the name and where he was going.

I asked, "What does this roster do for me?"

Lingxian asked tremblingly: "Did a lot of children get lost in Chang'an City?"

I say yes."

Lingxian said: "Then if you look for them with the address, you should be able to find some. Marquis Wei has been selling children."

I guessed it, and asked her for confirmation: "You said that Chu Ming stopped doing things that are devoid of conscience, because Chu Ming has always been notorious for his bad behavior, so when the children on the child trafficking route were sick, he went to the doctor to ask the children, and left Off the roster?"

Lingxian said: "Yes. Before Marquis Wei bought me, I was in Goulan. I always asked Chu Ming to come and see me when I was sick. One day, Lord Hou said to me that some children were sick on the way, and they needed a sensible one. The doctor paid a lot of money for diagnosis and treatment. I recommended Chu Ming to go, and Chu Ming took over and wrote down the roster, and there was nothing wrong with it.”

I asked, "Then why is he no longer involved in child trafficking?"

Lingxian said: "Marquis Wei confides in me. The old beast recently retired and short of money, so he came to ask him for it. Marquis Wei's money is not for nothing, so he asked the old beast to find more clever and lovable people." The child came and asked the shadow guards in Fuzhong to catch him and sell them into the states. Unexpectedly, when Chu Ming met the old beast, it seemed like he had a grudge against him. The old beast went to the guard alone to complain that Chu Ming wanted to kill him, and he wanted to do it first. But It is hard to find a doctor who treats children, so Wei Hou sent someone to shoot an arrow in Chu Ming's leg to appease the old beast."

I said, "Then the wound on Chu Ming's leg on the 22nd of the twelfth lunar month was shot by someone sent by Marquis Wei? Are the arrows in his home also made by Marquis Wei?"

Lingxian was a little confused: "I haven't been to Chu Ming's house, but the arrow wound should be caused by the shadow guard of Weifu."

I asked, "Why did you help Chu Ming?"

Lingxian said: "Because the children are innocent. I was raised in the house before, and I knew there was nothing I could do. Since Chu Ming wanted to betray Lord Hou and hand over the roster to save those children, why couldn't I help him?"

I felt a little respectful, and finally asked: "Who is the old bastard? Why did Chu Ming have an old feud with him?"

Lingxian said: "I added the name of the old beast to the last page of the roster. If you find the child with the address, it will be a witness. The old beast has retired."

An announcement came from a distance: "Welcome to the Marquis." Then I was turned back to the secret passage.This time it was pitch black, and the maid and Kunlun slave were not there.

There is another person.

Remarks: Lessons learned, written super straightforward.Did Chu Ming guess what happened?
