Ning Shu said slowly, "At first, no one took it to heart, thinking that it was just a moment of blur. Cloud Leaf's dizziness was also treated by a doctor, who said that it was due to being busy recently. He left after prescribing a sedative. But no one expected that the frequency of the ghostly figures would increase, and Cloud Leaf's symptoms would become more obvious, until the day she suddenly vomited blood in the wedding hall. That night, a pool of blood suddenly appeared beside Cloud Leaf's pillow! Two days later, the manservant Chu He saw the red-clothed female ghost walk into Young Master Yun's courtyard. He was so scared that he fainted. When he woke up, the female ghost was already gone, and there was another pool of blood in Cloud Leaf's room. The blood actually condensed into a word — danger. "
Forsythia's heart still skipped a beat when she heard that frightening situation for the second time. It was also because of this that Madam Yun was so furious when she dug out her young miss's jade hairpin. She firmly believed that the female ghost was attracted by the amulet wrapped around the hairpin!
Ning Shu continued speaking in a low and gentle voice.
"Putting aside whether the female ghost's blood letter is true or not, I have a doubt in my heart. There are so many suspicious points about Cloud Leaf's illness that have not been spread, but this one was spread to the Chasing Cloud and Moon Tower. I believe that it will soon spread throughout the capital from here. I don't believe in ghosts and gods, so … "Outside the tower, the sun had already set, and the lanterns had just been lit. The warm orange light leaped into her eyes, like stars and the moon." I suspect that someone is trying to cover up the truth about Cloud Leaf's poisoning, using the story of the female ghost to divert attention. "
The noise behind him was noisy, but in contrast, the girl's voice in front of him was low and gentle. It tickled his ears. Xiahou Qing frowned.
He paused for a moment, then raised his hand and gently knocked on the window frame. "There is a second possibility, which is the exact opposite of your guess."
He put forward his own point of view. "After His Majesty heard about Young Master Yun's murder, he sent the Supreme Court and the Jingji government to investigate. The relevant details must not be leaked. Only the word 'haunted' is harmless and will not cause fear, so it can be spread."
Ning Shu lowered her eyes and thought for a moment. She quickly understood what he meant. "I understand. What you're trying to say is that someone was afraid that the Cloud Leaf incident wouldn't be noticed, so they purposely spread the female ghost story to attract attention and attract people to investigate further! This is another way of thinking, and it makes a lot of sense. "
She raised her head and said solemnly, "But no matter what, the Cloud Leaf case is more complicated than I thought."
"So?" Xiahou Qing guessed that she had something to say next.
Ning Shu's eyes lit up. She immediately put on a smile and looked at Xiahou Qing. Her eyes were full of eagerness. "I would like to ask Your Highness to temporarily lend me this highly skilled and quick-witted Brother Hui Mo."
She still remembered that Huimo's autopsy speed and skill that night were both excellent. She was afraid that she couldn't find a better one in the entire capital. As for those who were proficient in autopsy, their medical skills would not be bad. The capital that she wanted in advance was exactly this.
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiahou Qing showed a look of understanding.
Ah! After such a big circle, she finally revealed her true intention. She even schemed against the people around him. He was wrong before. This woman's heart was full of twists and turns, not three thousand, but thirty thousand.
Ignoring her, he waved his hand and asked Huimo to help him put on his cloak. Then he lifted his leg and left.
"Although it's my duty to solve this case, the poison is also closely related to Your Highness. Helping me is equivalent to helping yourself. With Brother Hui Mo's help, I believe that the time to solve the "mystery" will be greatly reduced. And with Brother Hui Mo's supervision, seeing Brother Hui Mo is like seeing Your Highness. I will do my best to live up to Your Highness's trust. "Ning Shu hurried to catch up with him and used her flowery words to the extreme.
But his pace was very fast. In the blink of an eye, he had already boarded the carriage from the threshold of the VIP passage.
Ning Shu sighed in her heart.
Just as the carriage was about to move, she heard the person in the carriage say.
"Let's go. Within three days, Huimo will appear in front of you. "
The carriage drove away leisurely, taking the people in the carriage with it into the waning lights. At the end of the night.
Ning Shu's lips, which had just drooped, quietly lifted, revealing a sly smile.
The slightly cool night wind blew the various colored lanterns on the street. After leaving the Chasing Cloud and Moon Chasing Restaurant, Forsythia carefully put a water-colored cloak on Ning Shu. The color was actually very specific, but Ning Shu's skin was very white. It was like a soft red seeping out of the snow jade. Under the contrast of the water-colored cloak, it looked particularly fresh.
"Miss, are we still going to the Residence of Yun tonight?"
Ning Shu nodded and smiled sweetly. "Of course I'm going."
It took her so much effort to find the opportunity to investigate the case in the Residence of Yun. Moreover, she only had fifteen days. How could she waste it? Seeing was believing. She wanted to see whether the person hiding in the Residence of Yun was a human or a ghost.
