Cao Yilan's cooing voice was as soft as candy stuck to her teeth.

"At that time, Pei'er and I were shopping for lipstick at the rouge shop opposite Jintai Building. We saw the murderer parked the donkey cart on the side of the road and chatted and joked with the porters. You pulled me to make love..."

When she described the porter's teasing as being affectionate, Cao Yilan's expression remained unchanged and she did not show any disobedience. She spoke loudly and made the whole Yunqiqiao noisy.

Since ancient times, the beauty has won people's hearts. People were afraid of missing the good show, so they wanted to get closer to those who were close, and squeezed in to get closer to those who were far away. For a while, they were pushed and shoved, and it was a mess.

Cao Yilan looked around at everyone, raising the corners of her lips with a hint of pride, "After a while, she went crazy and chased my seventh uncle, and everyone in the street saw it..."

Before Cao Yilan arrived, the Kaifeng government officials had already visited the surrounding shops and insiders, and learned about Xinyi's pursuit of Cao Yi, so it was not surprising.

"Have you seen Miss Cao? Where did the porters go after she left?"

Cao Yilan rolled her eyelids, closed her cloak in displeasure, and snorted: "How could I pay attention to where the porters are going? I just happen to recognize the murderer."

Zeng Qinda asked knowingly: "Who is it?"

Cao Yilan raised the corner of her mouth with a mean smile, and said coquettishly: "Who else could it be? The little widow from Zhang Duyuhou's family whose ugly husband came back from the dead."

Zeng Qinda smiled and said: "This... what Miss Cao said is not enough to prove that Mrs. Zhang is suspected of murder..."

Cao Yilan was unhappy and pursed her lips, "How can there be such a coincidence in the world? Anyone who comes into contact with her will die, be unlucky, and even the undead will peel off their skin and say it has nothing to do with her.

Who will believe it?"

The people around him nodded frequently.

The hecklers became even more enthusiastic.

Is it a coincidence once, but is it a coincidence every time?

Zeng Qinda just smiled apologetically and didn't express anything. He obviously didn't take Miss Cao's words seriously. Cao Yilan was extremely dissatisfied.

"Am I right or not? Master Zeng will understand once he investigates. The porter was taking care of the work before he died. After he got into trouble with her, he threw himself into the river. If he didn't investigate her, who would he investigate?"

…

Xin Yi's teeth itched at the sight.

This Miss Cao is really stupid and bad.

No matter how recklessly he ran to the street to slander her, he was not afraid of losing the face of the Great Cao Mansion?

She handed the donkey's rope to Yi Nian.

"Take it, I'll go meet her..."

A long, slender hand took the rope and told her calmly and lowly.

"Don't go there."

Xin Yi was startled and turned to look.

The wind beside Yunqi Bridge was so strong that it blew the corners of Cao Yi's clothes. He had changed into casual clothes, his face was gentle and handsome, his brows were slightly furrowed, and he remained calm.

Xin Yi relaxed.

"Cao Du pointed out that you can't even make a sound when you walk?"

Cao Yi smiled slightly and said, "Cao was reckless."

After saying that, his eyes fell on the noisy crowd and Cao Yilan who was surrounded by people. "It's too noisy here and you are very focused, so I didn't call you."

Xin Yi smiled in return, "Have you heard what Cao Du said? Your niece slandered me so much. If I don't stand up, I should go to jail..."

Cao Yi looked deeply, "Lan'er is a bit crazy..."

Xin Yi: "So Cao Duzhi stopped me to help your niece?"

Cao Yi thought for a moment, then suddenly turned to stare at her, "I said I would help you, can you trust me?"

Of course I don't believe it.

Cao Yi is a gentle man with good looks and an upbringing that is engraved in his bones. This is his personality, but Xin Yi has already seen countless things that ruined his personality in just a few days since he came to this world.

How could a child from an aristocratic family like Cao Yi, whose family reputation was more important than his life, deal with his niece for an outsider?

"Master Cao just stood by and did me a favor."

Xin Yi smiled disapprovingly at him, hugged San Nian who was about to slide off the car, motioned for the three of them to sit down obediently, and went over to discuss it with Cao Yilan.

But I heard Cao Yi suddenly say: "You chased me on the street today, didn't you just want me to help you? Why did you refuse when I came?"

Xin Yi was startled.

His face turned red at a visibly rapid rate.

How could you forget this incident?

Cough! Xin Yi lowered his eyebrows, raised his head, and said sheepishly: "Actually, I didn't want to chase Master Cao at that time, but I had to take this step to avoid disaster..."

Cao Yi looked at her with a smile,

Xin Yi: "Is there any gossip that will cause trouble for Mr. Cao?"

Cao Yi had a gentle face and stared at her like water.

"I am not Zhang Du Yuhou, and I don't care about those gossips..." At this point, he seemed to realize that this sentence was inappropriate, especially in front of Zhang Xun's widow.

With a hint of embarrassment on his face, he cupped his hands towards Xin Yi and pursed his lips in a smile.

"Everyone has difficult times. If it weren't for helplessness, who would be so disrespectful of dignity? Don't worry, little lady."

Xin Yi was speechless.

As Zhang Xun's immediate boss, Cao Yi knew more about the affairs between Mrs. Zhang and Zhang Xun than others.

Xin Yi smiled and blinked lightly, "Does Master Cao sympathize with me? I once obsessed with Sanlang without regard for dignity, but he was disgusted by him, and even went to Kunlun Pass to avoid me... I guess Master Cao also looks down on people like me, right?"

"

She seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and she revealed the embarrassing things in the past lightly, as if she was telling someone else's story, which surprised Cao Yi.

Then, he started laughing.

"It turns out that the young lady is an open-minded person, but I am bored and made rude remarks. I hope that the young lady will not care about it... He is gone. It is a blessing that you can let go."

"Thank you." Xin Yi glanced at the increasingly lively Yunqi Bridge and raised the corners of his lips, "Why won't Mr. Cao let me pass?"

Cao Yi lowered his eyes, "If you pass, I won't be able to help you."

In full view of the public, it is really inconvenient given his status...

Cao Yi can be so calm, Xin Yi is not willing to hide it.

There is a kind of person who, even if you meet him for the first time, feels as comfortable as an old friend for many years.

Cao Yi is.

"They came to kill me."

Xin Yi told Cao Yi exactly what happened when he met the three porters, "From the time I drowned in the river to this day, it's like there is a pair of invisible black hands behind me, trying to kill me anytime and anywhere..."

Cao Yi frowned thoughtfully.

"You live as a widow in Zhangjiacun and have no hatred against anyone. Who could harm you? Could it be related to Sanlang?"

Xin Yi shook his head.

This is what she couldn't figure out.

Although Mrs. Zhang was married to Zhang Xun, Zhang Xun never had a heart-to-heart relationship with her and rarely interacted with her. Even if there were any confidential matters, they were not accessible to her, and no one's interests were touched, so why would he deliberately try to kill her?

?

"do not be afraid."

Cao Yi slowly comforted him with a calm and low voice.

"Sanlang is from the Palace Front Division. I will send someone to investigate this matter. As for Kaifeng Mansion..."

Xin Yi looked sideways at him, wanting to hear his opinion, when a voice came from him.

"The Prince of Guangling County has arrived!"

On the Yunqi Bridge, a chariot with two horses running abreast came slowly, with red embroidered clouds and four pillars carved, which was extremely luxurious and dazzling. On the car, the king of Guangling County wore a brocade robe and a large cloak, leaning on a back cushion and holding a curved table in his hand.

His slender, handsome demeanor and prosperous appearance were all on display in the eyes of the people of Bianjing, causing him to gasp.

The trend of extravagance in Bianjing is gradually increasing, and Guangling County Prince is one of them.

The noisy street suddenly became quiet.

The wheels of the cart pressed against the blue brick pavement, and every turn seemed to hit people's hearts.

What a peculiar temperament.

The Prince of Guangling County in front of them was clearly handsome and handsome, with a faint smile. He was not as cruel and murderous as the blackened Fu Jiuqu, but people were subconsciously afraid of him.

Xin Yi thought, maybe this is the natural tension of the villain's character.

"Back off, back off..."

"Be careful, don't offend this ancestor."

"Shh, don't make a sound."

Xin Yi watched the crowd murmuring in low voices and getting out of the way. Just as he was wondering why Fu Jiuqu came out to the street to scare people instead of teasing the beautiful girl at home, he heard Fu Jiuqu's lukewarm voice.

"Little Zhang."

The carriage stopped.

Not far in front of Xinyi.

Fu Jiuqu's bright eyes were like glazing eyes, and his handsome face smiled like an evil spirit in the sky.

"come here!"
