"I don't know who Lord Meng is looking for?" Ye Shaoguang beckoned Meng Ling to sit down and asked.

"A homicide." Meng Ling pondered his words before saying, "Thirty years ago, there was a rich family in Lul County whose family was surnamed Mu, and he was also a local squire, and the squire had a son in his later years - Mu Qian, Mu Qian died at the age of twelve, and his widow was Mu Qian's biological mother Lu Shi is a native of Pingxiang County, Lu Shi is a house, when Mu Squire passed away, Lu Shi was only twenty and eight, the following year Lu a distant relative took refuge, I sent someone to investigate, his person is Lu Shi's distant cousin, the two seem to be in love with each other, but Mu Qian, who has been governor, seems to oppose Lu's remarriage, According to the law of this dynasty, a widow may remarry, but some daughters must be allowed by their children, and those who have no children must be approved by their husband's blood relatives. Two years later, Mu Qian disappeared, and in the fourth year of Squire's death, Lu took half of the Mu family's property and married back to Pingxiang County, that is, his cousin's family. The reason why this old case was turned over, but the long-lost brother of the wooden squire was found, the Mu family has nothing, according to the laws of this dynasty, if the wooden squire has a direct kinship, the Lu family can not inherit most of the family business of the wooden squire, and the brother of the wooden squire, Mu Yuan, sued the Lu family for seeking wealth and killing his husband and son. Mu Squire I have ordered someone to open the coffin for an autopsy, not died of poisoning, but it has been fifteen years since Mu Qian disappeared, and I have investigated the relevant people back then, but nothing has been found. ”

"Your Excellency wants me to help you find the wooden money?" Nightshake light understood.

"Exactly." Meng Ling nodded.

"Master Meng must have Mu Qian's birthday, why don't you show me if he is alive first." Ye Shaoguang didn't immediately start a hexagram when he heard it, but said, "There are no two hexagrams for one thing, first know life and death, and then it's not too late to start a hexagram to find each other." ”

The government has a household registration archive, and it is easy to know the birth date of Mu Qian, Meng Ling is naturally prepared and pulled out a paper scroll from his cuff, "Here is the birth date of Mu Qian that I copied, and I hope the girl will show him whether he is alive or dead." ”

The night shake light took it, and it read: Jiaxu year Wuchen month Bingzi day Wuzi was born at the moment.

After reading this birthday, Ye Shaoguang stretched out his hand and calculated, and then shook his head: "This person has been dead for fifteen years, and according to the adults, he died in the year he disappeared." ”

"The Night Maiden is so sure?" Meng Ling asked.

"This man's life is in trouble." The voice of the night shake light is flat, but the tone is firm, "The calamity is a kind of fate, because it broke through the star, so it is called the calamity, the person born in Jiazichen met the son is the star of the general, fifteen years ago was exactly the year of Wuzi, and this year of the noon chongzi, it was the breaking of the star, the disaster, the main blood light died." In the water and fire, it is drowned, in the gold wood, it is because of the blade of the staff, and the earth is the fall. ”

"Does the girl know why he died?" Although Meng Ling accidentally understood after hearing this, he inexplicably believed Ye Shaoguang's words in his heart, so he asked again.

"He was drowned first and then cremated." Night Shake sighed, "There are no bones left, but I can vouch for my credibility that he died by him." ”

"There's Miss Lao." Meng Ling took out a purse and gave it to Ye Shaoguang.

Although she was helping to solve the case, she was the one who was guilty of not collecting money, so Ye Shaoguang didn't hesitate to take it: "It's not early, Master Meng might as well stay for a light meal." ”

"I have heard that Mr. Wen's chef is a master, and I am also a good person, so I have to have a meal." Meng Ling did not refuse.

"You accompany Master Meng to talk." Ye Shaoguang stood up and walked to the kitchen, fortunately, the vegetables are usually planted by the Lin family and Sister-in-law Tian, and there are a lot of pickled game at home, and the night Shaoguang also went to help in person, and there were two more guests at once, Meng Ling and Zhong Yaofan also brought their entourage respectively, and Sister-in-law Tian and Lin were not busy together, and Youli and Yining Yifang also helped.

About half an hour later, the meal was served, and when Meng Ling saw Zhong Yaofan at the dinner table, he was shocked at first, obviously he didn't know that Zhong Yaofan was here, the Meng family was a big family after all, although Meng Ling didn't meet Zhong Yaofan when he rushed to take the exam, but he still had a relationship later, so he recognized it at a glance.

"Xia Guan has seen Master Hou." Today is different from the past, Zhong Yaofan is a real marquis.

"You are ......" Meng Ling knows Zhong Yaofan, it does not mean that Zhong Yaofan, who has a lot of nobles, knows Meng Ling.

"Xiaguan Lu l county order." Meng Ling hurriedly reported to the door.

Although Zhong Yaofan doesn't have a huge memory, he has a lot of people, and before entering Lul County, he looked through the official information here, and immediately knew where Meng Ling came from, so he nodded: "Lord Meng doesn't need to be polite, please take a seat." ”

"Master Hou is polite." Meng Ling sat under Zhong Yaofan's hand.

There were already Wen Tingzhan, Meng Ling and Zhong Yaofan sitting on the table, but Wen Tingzhan, as the host, did not move, Zhong Yaofan naturally did not move, and Meng Ling also sat down when he saw this.

Seeing this, Zhong Yaofan couldn't help but ask, "Why is Lord Meng here?" ”

"Xia Guan encountered a difficult case, so he came to find the night girl to help." Meng Ling did not hide it, this matter has been guaranteed by Ye Shaoguang, Meng Ling already has the idea of solving the case, once the case is solved, it will be announced to the public, and there are not many people involved, so there is no need to keep it secret.

"The night girl is not only accurate in divination, but also in ghost telling, observing the sky, and fortune-telling." Zhong Yaofan couldn't help but sigh after hearing this.

"That's, I'm almighty." Ye Shaoguang, who happened to step into the dining hall, heard this, unceremoniously agreed, and walked to Wen Tingzhan's side, "Let a few people wait for a long time." ”

"Master Hou, Lord Meng, please eat." Wen Tingzhan picked up the chopsticks first.

Zhong Yaofan ate a little, drank the wine in the cup, his eyes lit up after taking a sip, and then he raised his head and drank all the rest of the cup, and finally looked at Wen Tingzhan with bright eyes: "This wine ...... It's so comforting to drink. ”

I can't find any adjectives to describe it, this wine is not as simple as drinking, but drinking it is like a basin of water pouring down from the body, so that people can clearly feel the dirt on their body as if they have been poured down a layer of comfort.

"Master Hou likes it, you can drink two more glasses." Night Shake Light glanced at Youli behind him.

"The night girl is stingy, she only gives three glasses to the guests!" Zhong Yaofan was a little reluctant to drink the wine that was poured again.

"If it weren't for the Hou Ye being my God of Wealth, let alone three cups, I wouldn't let you taste it." Night Shake rolled her eyes and said, "Am I stingy? That's two cups. ”

"Don't don't, you're generous, the most generous!" Zhong Yaofan hurriedly said to forgive.

The meal was comfortable, except for Zhong Yaofan who wanted to cheat one or two more glasses of wine from time to time, the atmosphere was still very joyful, and Meng Ling left after dinner.

Zhong Yaofan came over: "Night girl, why don't you also help me calculate the whereabouts of a person." ”
