Chapter 455

Night falls.

In the Qin Mansion, the colorful lanterns were still there, and the house was full of happy words, but it was silent.

The lively crowd has long since dispersed.

The autumn wind blows, and flower petals are flying all over the ground, adding to the desolation.

The frail second Miss Qin was helped into the new house by Qiu'er and Zhu'er. She was still wearing a red wedding robe and a red hijab, sitting quietly by the bed, waiting for her groom.

Pearl was crying silently in the corridor.

Qiu'er stood beside him, bowing his head and saying nothing.

A full moon rose above the branches, and the cold moonlight fell down, covering the garden with frost.

Outside on the street.

Last night there were still cars flowing like water, horses like dragons, and crowds of people. Tonight it was deserted with few pedestrians.

Wu Bei led the Jinyi Guards and escorted the four people on the carriage, and quickly entered the inner city.

They did not go directly to the palace guardhouse for interrogation, but turned left and right and rushed to a mansion in the east of the inner city.

The carriage quickly turned into a spacious alley and stopped in front of a mansion.

Wu Bei got off his horse, walked quickly up the steps, and said a few words to the guard at the door, who immediately went into the house to report.

Wu Bei looked inside the gate, slightly bowed, with a look of respect on his face.

On both sides of the gate, two huge stone lions sit. The plaque on the top of the gate reads "Zhongwu Bofu".

"Uncle Zhongwu?"

Qin Wenzheng frowned slightly when he saw these words from the carriage. He thought about it carefully and found that he had never heard of this person.

Not long after, the guard who entered quickly returned and whispered a few words to Wu Bei.

Wu Bei nodded, immediately walked to the steps, and said coldly to the four people on the carriage: "Master Qin, you four can come down now."

Qin Wenzheng opened the carriage and got out of the carriage with Qin Chuan and the others.

Wu Bei glanced at the four of them and sneered: "Master Qin, wait a moment, my master will be out soon."

Qin Wenzheng narrowed his eyes and said, "Your master is..."

As soon as he finished asking, a tall man wearing a unicorn suit and wearing a golden sheath dagger quickly walked out of the door.

When Wu Bei saw it, he hurriedly bowed over and said respectfully: "Master Commander, these are the four suspects from the Qin family, bring them all."

The tall man stood on the steps, looking down at the four people below with a stern look on his face.

When Qin Wenzheng and Qin Chuan saw this man, their expressions changed.

Luo Qingzhou was even more shocked when he saw this man, and the fists in his sleeves gradually clenched.

The eldest son of Chengguo Mansion——Luo Changtian!

He saw it once during the Chinese New Year three years ago.

At the time, Luo Changtian was still training at Longhu Academy, but after returning to Chengguo Mansion, he was already surrounded by people, with a terrifying momentum. He didn't even dare to get close at that time.

Now he wears a unicorn suit and a golden sword. He is tall and straight, and his eyes are majestic and cold, adding to his aura.

"Uncle Qin, I'm offended."

Luo Changtian stood on the steps and cupped his hands towards Qin Wenzheng, still with a stern expression on his face: "Luo Yu was brutally killed. We have investigated anyone with motives and suspicions. Your motive is the biggest. Although we have no evidence now. , but I still hope you can go back and cooperate with us to investigate."

Qin Wenzheng sneered and said, "How can we cooperate? Is torture enough to extract a confession? Is it possible to surrender?"

Luo Changtian said calmly: "Without evidence, we will not use torture on meritorious officials. Uncle Qin, don't worry, our Jinyi Guard handles cases and everything is done according to the rules."

Qin Wenzheng looked at him with a gloomy face and said no more.

Luo Changtian looked at Qin Chuan next to him and said calmly: "Qin Chuan, congratulations on getting the qualification to enter Longhu Academy. However, this qualification should have belonged to Luo Yu. With your strength, naturally It is impossible to kill Luo Yu, but we still need to investigate your whereabouts and friends at that time. "

Qin Chuan snorted coldly and said, "You can investigate as you like. I, Qin Chuan, am an upright person. What's mine is mine. If it's not mine, it's not mine. I won't use anything that I'm not qualified to get. Luo Yu's death has nothing to do with me! Even if you beat me to death, I will never admit it!"

Luo Changtian said no more and looked at the boy next to him.

Luo Qingzhou, wearing a bright red wedding robe, was looking at him calmly.

The two stared at each other for a while.

Luo Changtian smiled faintly: "Qingzhou, I haven't seen you for a few years. Your courage and temperament have indeed changed a lot. I heard that this year's imperial examination, you took the first place in Mocheng? Congratulations. I asked you to come here today because I want to ask you about the imperial examination. What happened in the next few days. After the imperial examination, there will be the Longhu College exam. You must know better than anyone in the Qin family. Don't worry, as long as you tell the truth, it will be fine. You are a scholar, so this matter must have nothing to do with you. Worry."

"and……"

After a pause, he continued: "Although my father said that you have severed ties with our Chengguo Mansion, after all, you and Luo Yu were once brothers, and I believe you will not be involved in this matter."

Luo Qingzhou said nothing.

Luo Changtian's eyes turned to the girl next to him.

At this time, a middle-aged man wearing a brocade robe walked out of the house with a woman wearing luxurious clothes, surrounded by some maids and servants.

Qin Wenzheng's pupils shrank.

"Brother Wenzheng, long time no see."

Luo Yannian stood on the steps, cupping his hands with a faint smile on his face.

Next to him, Mrs. Wang's eyes first looked at her majestic son lovingly and tenderly, and then she looked at the four people at the foot of the steps. Her gentle face immediately turned gloomy.

Both sides looked at each other.

There was a brief silence.

Wang's eyes suddenly turned red and she gritted her teeth and said, "Changtian, Yu'er's death must be related to these beasts of the Qin family! Originally, the quota in Longhu Academy belonged to Yu'er, but they were jealous, so they sent someone to assassinate Yu'er. Son. He, Qin Chuan, is Yu'er's defeated general, so what qualifications do he have to enter Longhu Academy? Changtian, you must avenge your brother..."

Luo Yannian on the side said in a deep voice: "Okay, you don't need to say anything. Since Changtian has taken over this case, he will definitely find out the real murderer. Before there is evidence, you can't talk nonsense, so as not to affect Changtian's handling of the case. .

Wang was trembling all over, as if she remembered the scene that day when her son's head was suddenly cut off in her arms, and she said in a trembling voice: "Master, if Chang Tian finds out, I will personally cut off that beast's head." Head!"

Luo Yannian said no more.

Luo Changtian said warmly: "Mom, don't worry, the case will definitely come to light, and I will never let the murderer go. It's cold outside, please go back first."

Wang's hateful eyes looked at the four people at the foot of the steps again. When he saw the figure in the wedding robe, there was a hint of confusion on his face, and then he suddenly sneered.

She endured it, thinking of how arrogant the little bastard was when he slapped her, but she finally couldn't hold it back, walked down the steps directly, stood in front of him, looked him up and down a few more times, and said with a evil smile: "You little bastard, are you getting married again? Are you getting married again? Are you getting married to that girl from the Qin family who is about to die of illness?"

Then he gritted his teeth and said, "You thought you betrayed us and joined the Qin family and you could stand up? You thought you passed the Juren exam and you would be successful? What happened? Aren't you about to go to jail now? A bitch will always be a bitch, you will never get ahead! As long as I live, you will always be like your bitch mother, and you will never get over it!"

Luo Qingzhou looked at her calmly. After she finished speaking, he slowly said: "Staying in the mud is better than having your head cut off. Mrs. Wang, what do you think?"

As soon as these words came out, Wang's face suddenly turned pale and her eyes were about to burst.

Luo Qingzhou turned a blind eye and continued: "I heard that your precious son was held in your arms when his head was cut off. He died miserably, and he died in a very unfilial manner. Why should he be scared before he dies? What about your mother? Mrs. Wang, can you tell us how you felt when you saw your baby son’s head falling off his neck and blood spurting from his neck?”

"Little beast!"

Wang roared suddenly, like an enraged beast, and grabbed his clothes. His whole body was shaking, his face was twisted and ferocious, and his voice was hoarse: "Shut up! Shut up!"

Luo Yannian came over immediately and grabbed her with a ferocious look on his face.

Luo Qingzhou looked at the two people in front of him without changing his expression and said: "Mrs. Wang, let's talk, please don't move your hands. You are Mrs. Gaoming, and your son is the Jin Yiwei. You are indeed of noble status, but you can't do whatever you want. I am no longer a slave of your Chengguo government. I am a juren, and I have a title. Even if the government takes me, he will not dare to do it without evidence. If you touch me, you will touch the world's scholars. You can try. "

Wang was trembling all over, grabbing his clothes with both hands, her eyes were red, and she was gnashing her teeth.

"Mother, let go."

On the steps, Luo Changtian still had a stern look on his face, and did not seem to be affected by any emotions.

Luo Yannian forcibly opened her hand, then looked at the familiar and unfamiliar faces in front of him with stern eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "Little beast, I shouldn't have taken you mother and son in in the first place!"

Luo Qingzhou suddenly looked at him and said, "I have always been curious. You are the master of Chengguo Mansion, and my mother is just a small figure in the village. How did you fall in love with her?"

Wang, who was next to him, suddenly laughed wildly. After laughing for a long time, Fang said with a vicious smile: "Little bastard, do you think my master will fall in love with that bitch? It was just my master who passed by there and drank. Drink, and then... hehe..."

The muscles in the corners of Luo Qingzhou's eyes twitched a few times, but his tone remained calm: "What happened next?"

Xia Chan, who was next to her, felt his hand holding her little hand trembling slightly.

Luo Yannian said expressionlessly: "Then I forced her to take her, gave her a few taels of silver afterwards, and then forgot about her."

Mrs. Wang gritted her teeth and said with a smile: "Who knows if that bitch is just a playboy? She has been played by other men a long time ago, so no one knows whether you are my son or not. But at the beginning, I saw you as pitiful, so I took you in." You. Now it seems that you, little bastard, are not worthy of our Luo family!"

Luo Qingzhou's pupils gradually became stained with blood.

He was silent for a moment, then looked at the man in front of him and asked, "So, we have no blood relationship, right?"

Luo Yannian sneered: "Of course not."

Luo Qingzhou nodded, and a look of relief suddenly appeared on his face: "I'm very glad that I have nothing to do with you. I'm really glad."

"Wu Bei, take the person back to the guard cell and guard him separately. I will go back later to interrogate him."

On the steps, Luo Changtian suddenly ordered in a cold voice.

"Yes!"

Wu Bei immediately grasped the hilt of the knife, hurried down the steps, and shouted: "Get in the car!"

Luo Qingzhou still stood there, looking at the man in front of him calmly.

Qin Wenzheng said gently: "Qingzhou, let's go."

Qin Chuan also pulled his arm and said: "Qingzhou, let's go, don't pay attention to them."

Xia Chan held his hand tightly.

Luo Qingzhou retracted his gaze, turned around, and followed behind them. When getting on the carriage, he suddenly turned his head to look at the strange man and said: "Luo Yannian, do you know what retribution is? I think you will know."

After that, he got on the carriage.
