Chapter 1115 Back to the Door
The bridal chamber is on the night of the candle and the golden list is the happiest moment in life, but the atmosphere in the bridal chamber at this moment seems a bit solemn.
"My husband, are you saying that the Bronze General killed people and took blood to save his life?" Ximen Zhanying showed surprise on her beautiful face.
Qi Ning reached out and poured two cups of tea, then said, "Zhan Ying, think about it, General Bronze sneaked into the mansion and approached our residence. What is the purpose? Duan Canghai said right. General Bronze is indeed coming to me. No matter what his purpose is, this is the plan he prepared from the beginning."
Ximen Zhanying blinked slightly and nodded.
"But he did not go as planned, but suddenly killed Su Lan. Why is that?" Qi Ning sneered: "I thought about it and there was only one possibility that the other party might have suffered a strange disease, or that he had suffered a very strange injury, and he had to use fresh human blood to relieve the physical changes." He picked up the teacup, took a sip, and continued: "After General Bronze sneaked into the mansion, he had not found me, and his body had a problem. In that case, he was powerless to come and ask me for trouble, so he could only find someone to kill him and take blood. But at that time, his body was already very weak, so he would definitely hit him without a single blow, which made Su Lan scream, which made the guards in the mansion react quickly. General Bronze sucked a few mouthfuls of blood in a hurry and fled hurriedly before the guards found out."
"After he sucked a few mouthfuls of blood, his body had not recovered immediately, so when he walked, his footsteps were floating, leaving messy footprints." Ximen Zhanying added: "But although there were only a few mouthfuls of blood, his body recovered quickly, so when he left the woods, he could use his light skills and escape without leaving any trace."
Qi Ning nodded and said, "Not bad."
When Ximen Zhanying thought of the horrifying scene of the Bronze General sucking human blood, she felt a little cold in her heart. She couldn't help but hold Qi Ning's hand and said worriedly: "My husband, why did he come to you? And it was on our wedding night?"
"He should think that tonight is a good time to take action." Qi Ning said: "On my wedding night, I drank too much with the guests at the table. He would definitely think that I drank too much and my vigilance would be greatly reduced. In addition, we two want to complete the house and will definitely be negligent, so he can find an opportunity to take action. However, the Bronze General dared to come to me, and he must have made great efforts, and he would have planned it in advance. Whether it succeeds or not, he would be able to escape unstoppable."
Ximen Zhanying frowned, bit her lips, and quickly said, "I will go to the Shenhou Mansion to find the second senior brother tomorrow. I will definitely let them solve the case quickly. I can't let the Bronze General think about you all the time."
Qi Ning felt Ximen Zhanying's concern for him, smiled slightly, reached out to pull Ximen Zhanying over, let him sit on his legs, hugged Ximen Zhanying's waist, and smiled and said, "Don't worry, although the Bronze General is amazing, your husband is not a vegetarian." A hint of chill appeared in his eyes, and he sneered: "And General Bronze's actions tonight have provided us with many clues to track him down."
"Have you found a clue?"
Qi Ning said: "This person is in the capital, which goes without saying. We have analyzed a long time ago that he must be an official in the court and even had the experience of commanding troops. In other words, he is a military general in the court."
Ximen Zhanying pointed his head slightly, and Qi Ning continued: "This person must have suffered from strange diseases and is very good at martial arts. In this way, the suspect will be greatly reduced. As long as you investigate which general in the capital has a strange disease, you can be included in the list of doubts."
Ximen Zhanying frowned and said, "A general suffering from a strange disease?" Suddenly, her delicate body trembled. Seeing her look fading, Qi Ning said softly, "What's wrong?"
"No, nothing." A hint of panic flashed through Ximen Zhanying's eyes.
How could Qi Ning not see Ximen Zhanying's thoughts and said softly: "I know what you are thinking. You are thinking that your father-in-law is suffering from a strange disease now, and he is very good at martial arts, so you are worried that I will doubt your father-in-law."
Ximen Zhanying looked at Qi Ning's eyes and whispered: "My husband, my father and my father can never be the Bronze General."
"Silly girl, how could you be so worried?" Qi Ning smiled and said, "My father-in-law is a dignified man, how could I suspect he is a Bronze General?"
Ximen Zhanying breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Is it because I am thinking about it."
"My father-in-law is the God of the Lord of the God Marquis. Let's say something very disrespectful. If he really needs human blood, he still needs to do it himself?" Qi Ning sighed: "The Big Dipper is loyal to the God Marquis. The God Marquis can send him arbitrarily, and he can provide him with a steady stream of fresh blood and worry about the blood?" He lowered his voice and said, "You are from the God Marquis' Mansion. You should know that even if your father-in-law asks you to do such a thing, it will not be revealed at all."
Ximen Zhan Yinghua looked slightly solemn, but nodded, "My husband, this is what we talked in the room. The second senior brother and the others obeyed my father's orders, and sometimes the imperial edicts could not match my father's words. Among the Big Dipper, most of the seven stars were trained by my father since childhood. They regarded my father as their father, and my father also regarded them as their own children." After a pause, he lowered his voice and said, "If my father and my father really asked them to do those things, they would definitely do it."
Qi Ning smiled and said, "That's it, so don't worry. There are not five hundred military generals in the capital, and there are three hundred, and there are naturally no military generals suffering from strange diseases. "After a little thought, he said, "Many people are hidden, maybe some are very good at martial arts, but they are not known."
Ximen Zhanying said: "The Shenhou Mansion has many detailed information about military generals. Since we have narrowed the scope of doubt, we can just leave it to the second senior brother and others to investigate."
"Okay, it's going to be dawn, and there may be a lot of things to do tomorrow." Qi Ningheng picked up Ximen Zhanying: "We can take a nap for a while. If we stay up too late, it wouldn't be beautiful." He hugged Ximen Zhanying and returned to the bed.
Although his words were relaxed, it was just to avoid affecting Ximen Zhanying's mood, but his mood was very heavy.
The next morning, most of the mansion still didn't know what happened last night. Qi Feng led his men to stay outside Gu Qinghan's yard all night, but there was nothing happening. He dispersed before dawn, but Gu Qinghan didn't know it either.
Duan Canghai secretly properly handled Su Lan's body, but he never found the whereabouts of the ugly man in the night.
When Qi Ning learned that the next day that the ugly man was missing, he felt even more strange. Since he was taken back to the mansion by himself, he had almost never left the house. He stayed in the mansion day and night, but it was a bit strange that the ugly man disappeared on the night Sulan was killed.
Gu Qinghan got up very early and prepared Ximen Zhanying's gift.
Because the two families are very close, they can get married the next day. This is also to show respect for the Duke of God. After Qi Ning and Ximen Zhanying had breakfast, they brought the gifts prepared by Gu Qinghan, and took the carriage back to Xianleju.
Xianleju is as quiet as ever. After a night, Ximen Zhanying changed from a girl to a young woman. It seemed that even her temperament changed overnight. Perhaps because of the different combed buns, she exuded the unique charm of a young woman.
After entering the yard, he saw the blue smoke rising from the kitchen. Qi Ning asked someone to put the gift away. He and Ximen Zhanying went outside the kitchen door. He only saw Ximen Wuhen wearing a light long gown and was busy working in the kitchen. However, Ximen Shenhou obviously rarely entered the kitchen on weekdays and seemed a little at a loss. Ximen Zhanying looked outside the door funny, so he went over and rolled up his sleeves and said, "You go over, I'll do it!"
Only then did Ximen Wuhen see his daughter and son-in-law coming, laughed and said to Qi Ning, "Sit in the hall." He left the kitchen, washed his hands, and led Qi Ning to the living room. There was no servant in Xianleju. Qi Ning went over to pour tea for Shenhou and himself, and then saluted to Ximen Wuhen and said, "Father-in-law!"
Ximen Wuhen smiled and said, "You know my personality, so you don't need these traditional Chinese etiquettes. I thought you would have to come in two days, so why did you come so early?"
Qi Ning smiled and said, "Zhan Ying was worried that her father-in-law wouldn't have enough food at home, so she came here to take a look early."
"Hahaha, this girl." Ximen Wuhen's complexion seemed to have improved slightly, but his whole body seemed to be less energetic than before. He seemed to have forgotten the last time that he drove Qi Ning and Tang Nuo out of the house. He picked up the teacup, took a sip and smiled: "You also know her temperament. Sometimes she will inevitably spoil her, but this girl is pure and kind-hearted. If there are any conflicts in the future, let each other be more tolerant."
"Don't worry, father-in-law, my son-in-law will not let Zhan Ying suffer aggrieved." Qi Ning said respectfully.
Ximen Wuhen nodded and said, "The Northern Expedition of the Court is about to come. The emperor must use you to do things. He will leave as soon as he wants. After he goes out, he doesn't know when he will come back. I will spend more time with her."
Qi Ning nodded and finally said, "There is one thing that shouldn't be said, but!"
"It's okay to say something." Ximen Wuhen smiled and said, "Today, you are not the Duke of the National Protection, and I am not a God's Houston. You are my son-in-law, I am your father-in-law, and you are chatting."
"Yes." Qi Ning said: "Father-in-law, the Bronze General appeared again last night."
Ximen Wuhen was originally bringing a cup of tea, but when he heard this, he paused his hand, turned his head, frowned and said, "General Bronze?"
Qi Ning didn't hide it, so she told me what happened last night. Ximen Wuhen looked solemn, put down the teacup, and said, "Why did General Bronze come to you? He killed people and sucked blood last night. It must be because things have changed, not intentionally killing people."
Qi Ning said: "The son-in-law thought that the Bronze General's target was indeed me at the beginning, but there might be something wrong later, so he killed the maid and sucked the blood and changed the original plan."
