The woman in pink clothes was sitting in the pavilion, and with her slender fingers, the tender and sweet tune flowed out, lingering and melodious in the pear garden.

A small footstep sounded, and the woman's expression moved, her fingertips pressed quickly and picked slowly, sometimes twisted up, sometimes flicked, and jumped quickly.

After a glance, the figure of the visitor was not a strong man, but a slender and graceful body.

The movement between the fingers slowly stopped, and finally, when the figure of the visitor stopped in front of her, he held down the string.

“花姨娘,别来无恙.”

Hua looked at her coldly, "The big girl is so busy. She has never seen anyone since she parted last time."

"I'm very busy. Isn't this arriving to find my aunt when I'm free?"

"How do you know I'm here?"

"In this pear garden, as long as there is wind and grass movements, other places will follow, and no movement can be absolutely hidden."

"The big girl can see clearly." Aunt Hua looked at her carefully. She could no longer see the shyness and simplicity she saw at first, but was full of calmness and unusual aura.

"This is not a good place to talk, so why not talk about it in another place."

Aunt Hua hesitated a little, and her eyes couldn't help but look at the entrance of the pear garden.

"My aunt's thoughts are easy to understand, but it's better not to worry too much about some things. The current situation is not good for the aunt."

"What do you mean?"

"It's okay if you believe it or not. I've found clues about the murderer. If you want to know, come over."

It was related to Shen Tingze, and Aunt Hua didn't care about her original purpose of coming here. She immediately hugged Qin and went to chase Shen Biyue who had already walked away.

Shen Biyue did not leave the Lixue Garden, but went to a relatively remote corner in the garden. This corner was just right, far away, and people would not discover it, and could also see the scene of the pavilion.

Aunt Hua did not doubt why Shen Biyue knew such a corner. She held Qin with some difficulty and couldn't wait to ask: "Who is the murderer?"

"What's the intimidation for my aunt? Please sit down." She pointed to a stone on the ground. The top of the stone was inclined flat, just for people to sit down.

"Stop keeping it a secret, I'm not here to listen to you talking nonsense!"

"Before talking about the murderer, why don't my aunt look back at the pavilion?" Her curved eyes seemed to have a deep meaning.

Aunt Hua turned around and happened to see Shen Zhi appearing near the pavilion. She couldn't help but stand up, but the next moment, her face suddenly pale.

Shen Zhi did not pass by, but went straight to the pavilion, as if he was going to seek a crime. However, when he saw that there was no one in the pavilion, the tense expression on his face suddenly relaxed.

"Did you see it? As long as there is a little movement in this garden, other places will naturally know it clearly and take action at any time." Shen Biyue looked at her piano and chuckled, "It is not enough for the aunt to regain her father's favor with this. It is too simple and clear, and it is easy to be turned over."

If it suddenly appears without anyone knowing it, Shen Zhi may be surprised, but if someone informs Shen Zhi in advance, the surprise will turn into fright.

Aunt Hua looked at her at a loss, and then her eyes surged with caution and suspicion, "How do I know that this is not what you did?"

"Indeed, I may also go and report it." She nodded in agreement, but her tone was slightly mocking, "But what good will it do to me if I ruined my aunt? I still expect my aunt to give me a cleansing."

Aunt Hua hugged Qin in her arms tightly, and the suspicion and thoughtfulness in her expression turned into subtle resentment. She obviously knew the mastermind behind the scenes.

Chen Biyue didn't continue talking nonsense with her, and said straight to the point: "I've already got some clues and clues when pushing Chen Ting, but it's not convenient to say it now, I just came to tell my aunt."

Aunt Hua suddenly raised her eyes and stared at her, "What's the inconvenience? That's the real murderer who harmed my son!"

"This..." Chen Biyue seemed a little embarrassed and couldn't help but lower her eyes and said, "It's not that I refuse to say it, but that I can't determine who the murderer is without being sure."

"What clues did you get? Give it to me, I'll check it!"

"My aunt is trapped now, how can she check it?"

"Stop talking nonsense! I have enjoyed the master's favor for so many years in the Shen Mansion. How could I not be prepared at all? Since you want to use clues and I will take the bait, I will make it clear. Don't swear to others, otherwise I will determine that you will not get rid of this matter."

Chen Biyue chuckled: "Okay, my aunt said so, I won't hide it anymore. A few days ago, when my maid went to the edge of the small pond to collect the body of my maid who committed suicide by jumping into the lake, she accidentally discovered this."

The palm spreads out, and it is a square red jade earring.

Aunt Hua reached out to get it, but she threw herself into the air. Chen Biyue held the thing and retracted her hand, "This is the only evidence, you should not act without action."

"I will find the murderer who killed him for my son."

"I believe in the aunt, but I don't know if my aunt believes in me, would she think that this thing was forged out of thin air?"

"Is it true or false, I will find out clearly. As long as you give me the things, I will keep them well anyway."

"I only picked up one earring. If the person finds that the earring is lost and cannot find it, he will immediately destroy the other one."

Chen Biyue's meaning was very clear to Aunt Hua. No matter whether the person went back to find him or not, the pendant was in their hands, and that person would definitely try every means to destroy another pendant.

Shao Yan was lying in the palace for several days and had almost never got out of bed. When he was drinking the medicine, Xuan Yi personally brought the medicine in, and Tianfeng came in to report the matter.

Just after drinking a bowl of bitter medicine, Shao Yan handed the empty bowl to Xuanyi without changing his face, and waved his hand at him with his eyes at him, quite impatient.

"Master, I haven't got my pulse yet." Xuan Yi felt extremely aggrieved when she held Kongwan. The one who was suffering was the medicine, so why did the master drive him out?

"I know how I am in my body."

"The wound on the master's mouth..." Before he finished speaking, Shao Yan stared at him coldly. Xuanyi shut up obediently and went out.

When Tianfeng came in, he happened to see his master leaning against the bed thoughtfully, a book on his hand rested loosely on his palm, and the fingers of the other hand rubbed his lips.

"Master, Your Majesty has sent an order to come here. I want you to free up time to attend the flower-winning poetry meeting a month later."

"Don't go."

"This time, His Majesty's attitude seems to be very firm. He had just spoken words before, but this time he issued an imperial edict."

Shao Yan's eyes moved and he looked at Tianfeng. Sure enough, he saw a bright scroll in his hand and raised his eyebrows unexpectedly.

“离诗会还有一个月,他急什么?”

"Maybe I'm too worried about my master's lifelong affairs?"

"Sky wind!" He raised his voice slightly, and the warning was obvious.

“属下只是猜测.”

"Hmph, the day of the scientific examination is approaching. The emperor is not busy with this matter, but he is determined to care whether I go to the poetry meeting or not. I am afraid that the person behind him is making the decision."

"Master, the Queen Mother?"

"Who else cares so much about me except her?" Shao Yan said with a rebellious self-deprecating question, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Tianfeng didn't dare to talk to him at this time, so he listened silently.

At the flower-winning poetry meeting every year, the emperor would persuade Shao Yan to attend. Others’ purpose was to fight poetry and art, but his purpose was to choose a good princess. Seeing that he was twenty years old and had not even married a concubine, he couldn’t help but be anxious for him.

The emperor was anxious, but King Yu was not anxious. He was weak every time and could not go far. He could not withstand the excuse of pushing him for a few years. The emperor was not willing to force him too much because of his body, but this year he was out of the ordinary and issued an imperial edict to force him. I am afraid that the empress dowager must have spent a lot of effort here.

"There is also the poisoning case that appeared in the garment shop before. Jingzhao Mansion has planned to hand over the case to the proprietor."

"For whom?" He raised his eyes and couldn't help but sit up.

"Zuo Lang General Qin Zhao."

"Whose idea?"

"His Majesty."

"It seems that the emperor respects him very much." He narrowed his eyes, relaxed, and leaned back, "Tianfeng, what do you think if Gu took this case down?"

"No!" Tian Feng immediately rejected, "That woman is a ghost hand. If you are discovered by His Majesty, you..."

"What a panic? The mark of the ghost hand on her body has been completely eliminated. Except for the scar on her arm and the ghost hand mark on her, there is nothing suspicious about the others. Besides, I want to use her as bait."

“主子说的是?”

Shao Yan smiled softly, stroked his fingers on his lips, without answering.
