Chapter 239 Male and Female Assassins
Author: Qingqingyinuo
With just one glance, Xiao Chen judged that Lin Shuran was lying. Lin Shuran didn't know anything about the white-haired slave named Honggu, but she didn't believe herself now, so she didn't want to tell the truth. This knowledge was also
Xiao Chen felt disappointed for a moment, but he quickly adjusted his mind. Hong Gu was not a simple person. Lin Shuran must be kept away from this person in the future.
"Shu Ran, Prince Duan and Princess Qingyang of Xia Kingdom were attacked last night. The opponents were two assassins, a man and a woman. Moreover, these two people have extremely high martial arts skills. More than a dozen masters have not defeated them, but these two
She was injured, and someone saw that one of the women showed a strand of white hair." When Xiao Chen said this, he kept staring at the expression on Lin Shuran's face.
Lin Shuran also reacted quickly. She tried her best to stay calm and deliberately smiled slightly: "Brother Xiao, you don't think you can tell that it's my former slave Honggu just based on this strand of white hair, do you? What if this spreads out?
, the matter can be big or small, I can't bear such a crime. Could it be that someone deliberately let you discover the characteristics of the assassination? You also know, whether it is between me and Princess Qingyang, or between the Xia people and our house.
There are contradictions among them. If they say that this assassination is related to us, I am afraid some people will really believe it. It is also a coincidence that Hong Gu just left the house. How about it, I will send someone to look for Hong later.
Regarding my whereabouts, Brother Xiao still needs to arrest people based on truth and evidence, and don’t jump to conclusions easily."
Xiao Chen looked at Lin Shuran with sharp eyes and found that she was facing him openly and naturally at this moment. Although what she said was reasonable, he felt very strange when he was tracking down the assassin of the Princess Mansion last time. These evil things suddenly appeared around Lin Shuran.
People have a charlatanic streak in their bodies, and it is absolutely impossible for Lin Youxing to be the person she is looking for, and Xu Junze doesn't seem to know these people very well.
In Xiao Chen's eyes, although Lin Shuran now feels familiar and strange to him, and she also behaves very alienated from him, she is always the gentle and innocent little girl in his mind, and she is the easiest to be taken advantage of by someone with malicious intentions. She is not
She understands the dangers of people's hearts and the world, and she cannot completely tell the difference between good and bad people. That Hong Gu, her fifth uncle in the farm, and even the maids who are following her now are definitely not as simple as they appear in front of her.
"Shu Ran, don't worry. I won't be careless in handling the case. If I didn't have definite evidence, I wouldn't come to your door today. You are just too kind and unprepared for others. You are not a good person to you.
He must be a good person, and I also hope that the assassin has nothing to do with your house, but if there is, you know my temper, and I will never let him go without investigating!" Xiao Chen said with firm eyes.
Lin Shuran also became serious. She looked at Xiao Chen and replied: "Brother Xiao, I understand what you mean, and I also hope you can find out the truth as soon as possible."
Xiao Chen left, and Lin Shuran sat alone in the hall for a while. She was thinking about what Xiao Chen said just now. What was the "conclusive evidence" that Xiao Chen said? Is it very detrimental to Hong Gu? And Xiao Chen
Chen said that the assassins were a man and a woman with extremely high martial arts skills. Could this couple be Uncle Wu and Aunt Hong? Otherwise, why did Aunt Hong suddenly leave the General's Mansion and say she would not come back for a long time?
"Lingqin, go to the farm in the southern suburbs immediately to see if Uncle Wu is there? Is Aunt Hong with him?" Lin Shuran called Lingqin to her side and ordered, but before Lingqin turned around, she immediately said, "He's out.
Don’t let anyone find out, especially the people hiding in the dark!”
Lin Shuran knew Xiao Chen somewhat. Judging from the tone of his conversation with her and the way he observed her, there was no guarantee that he was not deceiving her just now. The purpose was to make him take action so that he could find Hong Gu's whereabouts.
.
She even deliberately asked Chunxi to take her things to the Pyrotechnic Kitchen. Sure enough, someone was following her secretly. Soon the Pyrotechnic Chef was being targeted, and shopkeeper Jin also sent word that it was in the dark.
It seemed that someone from the Ministry of Punishment was eyeing them, so Lin Shuran told him to go about business as usual and not to worry.
Near evening, Xu Junze took Man Luo back to the General's Mansion. This time, Man Luo only spent an hour treating the wounds on Xu Minghan's face, and told the two of them that half a month later, the wounds on Xu Minghan's face would be healed.
It will grow back, and then she can just remove the gauze on his face. At the same time, she also took out a bottle of black ointment, saying that after removing the gauze on Xu Minghan's face, she would use this ointment to smear the scar, and wait until the ointment
After applying it, his face will be back to normal.
"Thank you Miss Man Luo!" No matter what Man Luo's intention was in treating Xu Minghan, or whether the method she used was evil, Lin Shuran felt grateful to her in her heart.
But Man Luo approached her ear with cold eyes and whispered a warning: "If you want to thank me, then stay away from him. You know who I am talking about. He is mine and always has been!"
After saying that, she left without looking back, but Lin Shuran was a little stunned. Yes, she knew who the person in Man Luo's mouth was, but then Lin Shuran smiled helplessly. She thought Man Luo might have misunderstood, although
Song Qinglun and Gu Jingcheng had exactly the same faces, but no matter whether Gu Jingcheng or Song Qinglun appeared in front of her, she, Lin Shuran, would not have the slightest affection for them.
After finishing dealing with Xu Minghan's affairs and seeing him sleeping peacefully, Xu Junze and Lin Shuran returned to their rooms. Both of them looked a little tired.
"Has Xiao Chen come?" After returning to the room and briefly washing up, Xu Junze sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Lin Shuran who was taking off her headdress. He stood up and walked behind her again and began to help her remove the beaded flower hairpin she was wearing.
The hairpins were taken off one by one, with gentle and caring movements.
Lin Shuran pursed her lips slightly, then nodded, and then told Xu Junze about Xiao Chen's reason for coming, but she remained silent after saying that, because even she herself was not sure whether the person who assassinated Prince Duan and Princess Qingyang was Hong.
Aunt and fifth uncle.
During the day, she asked Lingqin to secretly go to the farm, but no trace of Uncle Wu was found either in the village or in the mountains. Later, she asked Zhang Tang, but he didn't know where Uncle Wu had gone, because Lin Shuran said that Uncle Wu could come and go.
I was free, so I didn’t care.
Hong Gu left and Fifth Uncle disappeared, which made Lin Shuran feel even more uneasy. Xiao Chen said that the male and female assassins were also injured. If it was really Hong Gu and Fifth Uncle, where are they now? They were really injured.
Is the injury serious? Is there a safe place to stay? These are what she is most worried about.
