Chapter 640: The Endless Long Night

Jiang Qin Zhou Tai was Qiu Ming's personal soldier, so he naturally lived in Qiu Mansion, and he also rushed outside the study at this moment. When Zhou Tai saw Xiaocui's corpse, he immediately became angry and shouted: "On the first day we moved in, someone came to the door to make trouble, it was really too deceitful, and when I caught this guy, I will definitely chop him up carefully." ”

Jiang Qin glanced around, and saw that the scene was chaotic, and no one noticed the two of them, so he grabbed Zhou Tai and said: "We are new here, and there are many things that are not clear, don't talk nonsense, let's wait and see what happens." ”

At this time, Qiu Ming also walked out of the study and said loudly: "At the banquet at home tonight, there were thieves who mixed in, harmed Xiaocui and scared Mrs. Diao. I must catch this murderer and keep my family in peace. In view of the fact that the murderer may still be hiding in the mansion, I have already sent the ironclad cavalry to surround the house, please don't panic, and don't enter or leave the mansion for the time being, and wait for the results of my investigation. ”

These maids and wives are all women from good families recruited from Dengzhou, who has never seen such a bloody scene, when they heard the word murderer, they were immediately frightened and their legs were weak, so they naturally obeyed Qiu Ming's orders and obediently went back to the house to wait for the investigation. Qiuming looked around, saw that Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai were still standing on the spot, and said with a smile: "You two have followed me all the way from Changsha to here, you should be tired, hurry back and rest." ”

Jiang Qin pulled Zhou Tai back into the house and said with a calm face: "That servant girl died strangely. ”

Zhou Taidao: "Weird? What's weird? ”

"If there is really a murderer, how can he only attack the maidservant and not the main owner of the house? If the servant girl usually provokes the enemy, do you have to wait until the county Cheng returns home before making a move, causing herself a lot of trouble? ”

Zhou Tai yawned: "What do you want to do so much?" The two of us are just pro-soldiers, arresting the murderer or something, let the county Cheng do it himself. I'm so tired that I'm going to go to bed first. ”

Jiang Qin grabbed him and said, "Don't sleep, I'm afraid there will be weirdness tonight, if you want to save your life, don't sleep first." ”

Zhou Tai knew that Jiang Qin had always been calm, and he always came to make up his mind when the two of them acted together, and said in surprise: "And weird? Do you want to die? ”

Jiang Qin nodded: "If I'm not mistaken, I'm afraid that many people will die tonight, you just wait and see." Zhou Tai was shocked and suspicious, and sat by the window with Jiang Qin with a full stomach, observing the movement outside.

But it was said that Qiuming arranged for someone to dispose of Xiaocui's body, and returned to the study with a gloomy face, Diao Chan was originally pretending to cry, but at this time, he had already suppressed his mourning, and watched Qiuming's every move with blazing eyes, but Cai Wenji's eyes were red, as if she had cried. Qiu Ming sighed softly, maybe a mantra after drinking made this woman who had been living in a beautiful spiritual world suffer too much stimulation, and it was human nature that she couldn't accept it for a while.

Qiu Ming untied his robe and put it on Diao Chan's body, and said to Cai Wenji warmly: "It's already night, you are very busy today, go to sleep." ”

Cai Wenji's tears welled up again: "Do you really, do you want to kill the whole family?" ”

Qiu Ming was shocked: "Who said I was going to kill someone?" ”

Diao Chan's eyes swept away: "I said, you have already chanted anti-poetry, do you still want to take it back?" Xiaocui shouted to report to the official, I have already killed her, but there are so many family members serving at the banquet tonight, it is difficult to guarantee that there will not be a few more officials, if the government is alarmed, our family will be a crime full of beheadings. She suddenly burst into tears: "It doesn't matter if I die, but the child in my belly is going to go to the Dharma field before I am born, and I am not reconciled." ”

As soon as Cai Wenji heard that the whole door was being beheaded, she was speechless, but Diao Chan continued: "The only way to do this now is to find a reason to kill all these people who know, and from then on be cautious in words and deeds, or you can save the lives of the whole family." As for the dead, they had to give their families more money to make amends. ”

Tyumen usually rarely comes to the study, but the study is elegantly and cleanly furnished, and there are fruits such as beans, etc., which shows that Cai Wenji should come over often. He took the plate of fried beans, chewed them in his mouth, and asked vaguely: "Xiu'er, are you still comfortable living in Dengzhou?" ”

Diao Chan heard Qiu Ming call his real name, remembered the bits and pieces since he arrived in Dengzhou, and couldn't help but glance at him with silky eyes: "You know, I was sold into slavery since I was a child, and I was adrift, and my days in Dengzhou were the happiest times in my life." ”

Diao Chan is as beautiful as a fairy, and a pair of electric eyes are even more fascinating, instantly making Qiuming's whole body numb, and after a long while, he continued: "We can live comfortably and comfortably in Dengzhou, a large part of the reason is because there are these maids and wives outside serving us, and some of them have been working in the house for a year or two, and they can almost be regarded as the Qiu family's own family." I've been fighting outside for many years, and it's very reassuring to have them at home to help take care of me, so I can't bear to kill them all. ”

Diao Chan wept suddenly: "Then you don't think about our unborn children at all?" ”

Tyumen smiled: "How come? Do you think about it, these people are all local to Dengzhou, and they have spent the past two years knowing the roots, and there are no family relatives among them, right? ”

Cai Wenji immediately shook her head: "No, they are all small families, and there are no people from families." ”

Qiu Ming said: "How can these small families come into contact with high-ranking officials of the imperial court, their so-called reporting officials, in addition to the county order and Pan, there is only the county lieutenant Cui Jie." These two people are now obedient to me, even if they have the heart to calculate me, there is nothing they can do, I just need to make some more people keep an eye on their doors, hehe, anyone who wants to report to the official will have to report to me in the end. ”

Cai Wenji nodded again and again: "En, you're right, Dengzhou is under our control, those maids and women must not dare to go around and talk bad about our family, if there are really one or two bold ones, then, then let's talk about it then." ”

Diao Chan's face suddenly turned pale: "I just killed Xiao Cui, do you think I am a ruthless, unjust, vicious and fortunate person?" ”

Qiu Ming gently hugged her in his arms: "Xiao Cui insisted on reporting to the official, that was her suicide, you made such a quick decision, it is because you have great affection for me Qiu Ming, and relieve me of the big trouble, how can I miss you so much?" Those who do big things are not informal, and it is not a good thing to pierce this layer of window paper today, just to test which people are willing to share my heart. I don't need to think much about Xiaocui's affairs, what I'm really worried about is the other people. After saying that, Tyuming's eyes cast his eyes out of the window, and outside the window, there was an endless long night.
