After returning to the inn from Qiongfang Villa, Lu Qingfan watched Yun Xi's master and servant go back to the house to rest, and then went to Beijing with Ran Piao without stopping.

He also has errands to run: to visit Lord Yan.

The carriage stopped at the door of Yanhou Mansion. Lu Qingfan got out of the car with great skill. Ran Piao cautiously poked his head out from the curtain of the carriage: "Master Lu, I will not go in, right?"

His old face is not enough to be seen in Yanhou Mansion. Whether he can be summoned by the Marquis depends on luck!

Lu Qingfan nodded: "That's fine. Master Ran has had a hard day today, so go back and rest early."

After that, he simply slapped the horse's butt. The carriage moved suddenly, and Ran Piao was caught off guard and fell into the carriage with a thud. After struggling for a long time, he opened the curtains and saw that Mr. Lu had gone to knock on the door of the Marquis Mansion.

figure.

Ran Piao sighed and said: "Master Lu is really a young hero, I am not as good as him!"

Lu Qingfan knocked on the door and handed over the ticket. It was not until about midnight that a servant respectfully invited Lu Qingfan into the side hall of the outer courtyard.

At this moment, sitting in the side hall was an aristocratic young man who looked to be only thirty years old and was dressed in rich robes.

The man nodded politely to Lu Qingfan: "Master Lu?"

"That's the official." Lu Qingfan returned the salute: "Your Excellency, are you the Crown Prince of Yan?"

Prince Yan acquiesced and raised his hand to invite Lu Qingfan to sit down and drink tea.

"Master Lu came to visit late at night, presumably for the sake of his younger brother." Prince Yan put down the tea cup and said calmly: "Has the case been handed over to the Ministry of Punishment?"

Lu Qingfan put down the tea cup without changing his expression, already knowing in his heart: when he was eyeing the Yanhou Mansion, the Yanhou Mansion also started to investigate him.

"Otherwise, this official has not yet taken up his post in the Ministry of Justice, so he is on a foreign mission to handle cases." Lu Qingfan moved a thousand pounds and took out the Ministry of Justice first, and then nodded and said: "Since he is the younger brother of the Crown Prince, the Crown Prince must know Young Master Yan quite well.

"

"I can't speak of understanding. Master Lu must have known that my son and Jun'er were not born from the same mother. They are different in age and have little contact with each other."

According to the information provided by Ran Piao, Lord Yan's eldest son was the son of his legitimate wife. After his wife died, Lord Yan remarried and gave birth to Yan Laoer and Yan Jun.

If Prince Yan hadn't mentioned it deliberately, Lu Qingfan would have almost forgotten that the man in front of him was already over 40 years old, and he was at least ten years younger than Yan Jun.

"It's the official's negligence." Lu Qingfan said "negligence", but his attitude remained calm and calm, without any embarrassment: "In order to catch the murderer, I also ask the prince to provide you with some information about young master Yan's daily life and habits, so that he can do well.

Suspect investigation matters.”

Hearing this, Prince Yan waved his hand to the servant beside him, and the servant handed over several booklets in his hand.

"The Yan family has always had the habit of recording daily life, which must be of help to Mr. Lu. Someone from the Ministry of Punishment sent a message before, saying that this thing needs to be reviewed, and I have already prepared it."

Lu Qingfan took the daily record and flipped through it briefly, not forgetting to ask: "An official from the Ministry of Punishment?"

Prince Yan glanced at the servant, who whispered: "Reporting to your lord, that lord calls himself Ran."

It turned out to be Ran Piao, and he was quite considerate.

The smile on Lu Qingfan's lips disappeared for a moment, and then he stood up and said respectfully: "Sorry for bothering you. I'll take my leave."

"Master Lu, please." Prince Yan did not get up and nodded to send him off.

Approaching the door, Lu Qingfan heard the voice behind him: "Master Lu, my younger brother is playful and willful, but he is by no means a ruthless person. I hope Master Lu can seek justice for his younger brother."

It's finally here.

Lu Qingfan paused in his steps and looked back at Prince Yan who was sitting upright in the side hall, his dark eyes burning with a cold light: "You are playful and willful?"

He asked sarcastically: "Are you a playful and willful person who is good at using the 'heart-eroding magic orchid'?"

Upon hearing the name "Erotic Heart Fantasy Orchid", Prince Yan's expression suddenly changed.

It seems that Prince Yan is not completely unaware.

Lu Qingfan's lips curved into a sneer, "See you later, Prince Yan."

After saying that, he strode away without stopping.

Prince Yan watched Lu Qingfan's back until he disappeared, then got up and returned to the inner house. He walked along and stopped in front of the brightly lit study.

"Father, my son is back."

"Come in." A strong command came from inside the room.

Prince Yan walked in and whispered to his father who was practicing calligraphy at the table: "Lu Qingfan is gone. Judging from his attitude, my son will investigate Jun'er's case thoroughly."

"Did you talk about it?" The middle-aged man raised his head. He had sharp eyes, a dignified appearance, and a tall and strong figure that gave him the domineering air of a superior.

"I told you." Prince Yan smiled bitterly: "Master Lu not only didn't care, but my son was warned by Master Lu."

"Well, he has the character of Lao Lu back then."

After saying this, Marquis Yan continued to practice calligraphy with his head lowered. Seeing that his legitimate son was still not leaving, he frowned and asked, "What else can I do?"

"Father, let them investigate Jun'er's case?"

"Check," Marquis Yan glanced at Prince Yan: "That bastard is already dead. Do you want the entire Marquis Mansion to be buried with him?"

"...Yes." Upon hearing this, Prince Yan respectfully resigned.

…

Besides, after Master and Servant Yun Xi returned home, she kept feeling grievances about Tan Yun Die. She muttered for a long time, but she no longer felt sleepy.

Yun Xi simply stood up and went to the table to draw out all the clues of this case. His mind was still thinking about the clues he saw at the crime scene.

"Tell me...if the murderer was in love with Miss Tan, why didn't he save her instead of killing her?"

The deaths of Tan Yundie and Yan Jun are vaguely similar, and may even occur at the same time.

According to normal thinking, the desire to save the one you love is always stronger than revenge, right?

"Could it be that when the murderer came, Miss Tan was already dead, so he was angry and killed?" Qingguo clapped his hands and speculated.

"Perhaps the murderer bumped into Miss Tan and asked for help. The murderer didn't know that Miss Tan was suffering from the 'heart-eroding magic orchid', so he rushed into the house angrily and killed Miss Tan. That's when Miss Tan died."

The more Yun Xi deduces, the broader her ideas become.

A light suddenly flashed in her mind, and she immediately stood up to put on her outer clothes: "Let's go to Qiongfang Villa again."

"Hey, slave, go hitch the carriage!" Qingguo grabbed her clothes and rushed out the door.

After learning from the lessons of history, the master and servant specially prepared a few more lanterns in the carriage and rushed to Qiongfang Villa in the thick of night.

During the day, the majestic and majestic garden reveals a sense of loneliness after prosperity in the quiet night.

Yun Xi stepped forward to call the door, showed her identity and successfully entered. This time, no one was needed to guide them, and the two of them successfully returned to the wing where the crime occurred.

With the faint light emitted by the lantern, Yun Xi's clear eyes became brighter and brighter in the night, not letting go of any small clues or traces.

She searched for physical evidence, and Qingguo followed behind and packed the evidence in brown paper bags. Clues that she had not noticed during the day were uncovered bit by bit.

About half an hour later, Yun Xi, who had already walked inside, straightened up and showed a relieved smile: "It's as I guessed just now."

"How?" Qingguo couldn't wait to ask: "Miss, please stop showing off!"

Yun Xi pointed to the window: "The murderer didn't bump into the person from the front door, but came in from here. He saw Yan Junxing forcing him to live in peace, and he became angry and rescued the person."

"Ah, wouldn't it mean that everyone attending the banquet is suspicious? What if some guest with a righteous mind takes action in anger..."

Qingguo got to the point.
