Chapter 111

On the second day, the Yamen tried the case of the flower picker. The people in the city hated the flower picker. The entire street outside the Yamen was surrounded by the crowd.Liu Mu, as a witness and a hero who captured the flower picker, naturally also came to the court.

In the courtroom, Liu Mu saw another familiar person, Wen Siren.

Liao Fan confessed to his crimes in court, and what's more coincidentally, all of Liu Mu's made-up excuses for his appearance in Feng's residence last night seemed to be confirmed.It is true that most of the murdered women were followed by Fan after seeing them in Pudu Temple.

Liao Fan was put in prison, waiting for the opportunity to be executed, and 'Yin Tianchou' became a hero in the eyes of the people in the city.

Inside and outside the yamen, the crowd gradually dispersed.Feng Langqu took Wen Siren and said to Liu Mu, "Brother Yin, this is my cousin, who is an official censor, and is now patrolling around for the emperor, and happened to pass by Hangzhou."

Wen Siren cupped his fists, "I'm Wen Siren."

"Yin Tianqiu." Liu Mu clasped his fists in return, his expression was very indifferent, with a full hermit attitude, as if he didn't care about the identity of Yushi at all.

"Yin Tianchou?" Wen Siren looked at Liu Mu, and said, "Hearing the name of Brother Yin, it seems that there is a deep hatred."

Liu Mu smiled and said, "I also think this name is not pleasant, it is not as elegant as the names of you literati. But when the Yin family came to our generation, it happened to be the word 'Tian', and the name was based on the meaning of 'Jianghu laughs away all kindness and enmity'." 'The one who came to pick it up is the seventh eldest in the next family, so it is called Yin Tianchou."

Feng Langqu interrupted and said, "Cousin, you have been exhausted in the past two days, and brother Yin has worked hard for the flower pickers. You must be tired. Why don't you go back and have a good rest. At noon tomorrow, I will set up a Banquet, personally entertain the two of you."

Several people exchanged a few pleasantries and then dispersed.

Leaving the yamen, Liu Mu went directly to Jindingzhai. "You haven't come for a while." Yan Erniang brought tea and refreshments to Liu Mu.

Perhaps the weather was too hot, Liu Mu blew on the tea in the teacup, and drank it upright, Yan Erniang laughed and said, "It's a waste of my good tea. You are the first one to look like a buffalo when you come to Jindingzhai." That's how you drink tea."

Liu Mu smiled awkwardly, "It's hot, I'm thirsty."

Yan Erniang said, "You have caught the flower picker, and now you have become a hero in the eyes of the common people. Seeing how grateful the common people are, they only need to make a golden seat for you as an offering."

Liu Mu said, "It's just that I was lucky enough to catch that flower picker."

"This time you go out with a mask on, so you won't be afraid of attracting any suspicion." Yan Erniang said, "You and I don't know each other very well. I wonder if you can take off the mask and let me see the true face of Mount Lu."

"This face is really ugly, I'm afraid it will catch your eyes, so don't look at it."

Yan Erniang approached Liu Mu, and whispered with a half-smile, "Are you afraid of getting my eyes out, or are you afraid of being recognized?"

"I don't understand Yan Erniang's words."

Yan Erniang smiled, "Mr. Yin is planning what's going on in his heart, of course you know better than me."

Liu Mu asked with a smile, "Yin is confused, but I want to hear what Yan Erniang has to say."

Yan Erniang said, "You two met for the first time. Miss Feng's carriage passed by and caused trouble. The horse suddenly went crazy and was rescued by you. After that, you came to my Jindingzhai to drink tea every day. After you got acquainted with me, you happened to meet with me that day. She met and said about the lost jade pendant. Girls are the easiest to be deceived by these seemingly destined coincidences, not to mention that she had already fallen in love with you in the downtown area that day. Presumably you also deliberately lost the jade pendant In the carriage. Her elder brother Feng Langqu is in the officialdom, so he is naturally suspicious. If you get too close to Miss Feng, it will arouse the other party's suspicion. So you used the trick of playing hard to get, and let the Feng family take the initiative to find you."

Liu Mu smiled and said, "Erniang Yan's analysis is well-founded, if I go deeper, I'm afraid I will believe it."

Yan Erniang smiled and said, "I hope I'm suspicious. Although I don't know much about the officialdom, I've heard people say that the Feng family has been officials for generations, and there are many enemies inside and outside the court. Feng Langqu and I It doesn't matter, whether you are here to seek revenge or to make a marriage, it has nothing to do with me. It's just that Ms. Feng is a kind person, different from her father and brother, so no matter what your purpose of approaching the Feng family is, I hope you Don't hurt Miss Feng."

Liu Mu said, "I hope to get back what originally belonged to me, and I hope not to hurt any good people. Today Yin Mou has been disturbing me here for a long time, so I will leave."

Yan Erniang took a step forward and asked, "But don't you think it's a kind of harm to Miss Feng now?"

Before Liu Mu left, he only said, "It's revenge, it's marriage, it's its own way. How can Yan Erniang be sure that it's not fate that I met Miss Feng?"

In the evening, in Feng Langqu's study, Wen Siren said, "Cousin, do you think this Yin Tianchou looks like a person?"

"Willow!" Feng Langqu blurted out, as if this guess had already existed before Wen Siren said it.

"You think so too? That Yin Tianchou wears a mask all day, do you think it's Liu Mu?" Wen Siren said.

Feng Langqu said, "The first time I saw him, I felt that he was very similar to Liumu in terms of figure and manner. But Liumu has been poisoned by you, and after drinking the poison, his throat can make a sound again. It's a miracle, how could it be possible to speak so clearly. Besides, Liu Mu was not only broken by us, but also had many bones broken on his body. What's more, he was stabbed in the abdomen by Zhou Dahai later, even if he survived the catastrophe, If he can save a life, he is just a useless person who needs to be taken care of in daily life. Moreover, Liu Mu is a waste that can't even kill a chicken, but Yin Tianchou's martial arts is afraid that none of my followers can match him. How could he and Liu Mu be the same person. What's more..." Feng Langqu narrowed his eyes, thinking to himself, Liu Mu should have died a long time ago after being hit by my Corpse Crushing Palm that day.

Wen Siren said, "As long as you don't find Liu Mu's body, you can't let go of any suspicious clues. It would be best if Yin Tianchou wasn't Liu Mu, but if it really was that guy who had some kind of adventure and survived, or if this person had a relationship with Liu Mu It has nothing to do with it. It's hard to guarantee that he didn't come to seek revenge from us. What's more, why would a stranger wearing a mask suddenly appear and break into our lives just like that. Moreover, his acquaintance with Lin Ling is too coincidental. "

Feng Langqu nodded, "That's right, it's important to be on guard against others. Yin Tianchou and Liu Mu are really too similar."

Wen Siren said, "Cousin, Yu Wanran and Liu Mu are also husband and wife after all, and they must be more clear than we can see. You found so many fake corpses pretending to be Liu Mu, and Yu Wanran saw through them. If the real Liu Mu appeared here, it must be She won't fail to recognize it. Whether this person is Liu Mu, as long as Yu Wanran is invited tomorrow, the answer will naturally come."

At noon of the next day, the servant of Feng's mansion went to Pudu Temple to deliver an invitation card to Liu Mu, saying that Feng Langqu was hosting a banquet in the mansion and invited Yin Tianchou to the banquet.

Feng Langqu personally went out of the mansion to welcome Liu Mu in.Liu Mu was the last one to come to Feng's residence, and the others had been waiting for a long time.Seeing Liu Mu, Yu Wanran's heart trembled, and she realized at a glance that the masked person was Liu Mu. Although all kinds of feelings were mixed in her heart, Feng Langqu and Wen Siren couldn't put her face on Yu Wanran's face, which was always calm. Find any emoji on .

"Finally I've waited for you." Feng Linling said to Liu Mu, seemingly blaming her.

Liu Mu glanced at Yu Wanran, but didn't stay there. He looked like a stranger. Finally, his eyes fell on Feng Linling, and he smiled at him, "When I was going down the mountain, I met some masters who came back from doing things in the city. A few words, so I was delayed."

Feng Langqu said, "Wanran, this is a friend from the rivers and lakes that I have not known for a long time. This time I was able to catch the flower picker, thanks to Mr. Yin."

Liu Mu cursed in his heart, Wanran!You rotten maggot, you are really kind.When the time is right in the future, I will cut off your rotten maggot's rotten tongue and throw it into the latrine!

Feng Langqu continued, "Young Master Yin, this is Miss Yu who is known as the number one talented woman in Jinling."

Liu Mu clasped his fists and said politely, "Yin Tianchou has met Miss Yu. Although I am not from the Central Plains, I have heard of Miss Yu's name for a long time. I am honored to meet the number one talented woman in Jinling today, so this trip is not in vain."

Yu Wanran nodded her head in return, and simply said, "Young Master Yin, thank you".

After everyone was seated, after drinking for three rounds, Wen Siren stared at Liu Mu firmly, and said, "Brother Yin, have we met somewhere before?"

Liu Mu smiled and said, "Young Master Wen is really good at joking, didn't we meet in court yesterday."

Wen Siren smiled and said, "Earlier, such as a few years ago."

Liu Mu said, "I have been in the Central Plains for four or five years, and I have been traveling around. If I say I have seen it, it is not impossible. Maybe we have met somewhere before, but I just don't remember."

Wen Siren said, "Mr. Yin has been to Jinling?"

Liu Mu smiled and said, "Jinling is a prosperous place in your Central Plains. I went there admiringly two years ago. At that time, I regretted not being able to meet the legendary number one talented woman in Jinling. It's just that Miss Yu was married at that time. If not, Yin Mou must have paid a visit at that time."

Feng Langqu and Wen Siren looked at each other, and Feng Linling said, "I thought, Mr. Yin, you always stay away from the hustle and bustle and don't care about worldly affairs. Unexpectedly, there are people or things that you would admire."

"Who wouldn't yearn for beautiful things." Liu Mu smiled at Feng Linling, "I'm glad now that although I wouldn't rush to visit Miss Feng at Mrs. Feng's house, I met you by chance. Otherwise, wouldn't it be another A beautiful thing was missed."

Yu Wanran took a sip of tea calmly.

Feng Linling's cheeks were a little rosy, "Who cares to have met you, a lukewarm and eccentric person."

Liu Mu smiled and said, "I feel very lucky to be friends with Miss Feng."

Feng Linling was a little displeased when she heard this, and said in a low voice, "After all, I'm just a friend."

Even more drunk, Wen Siren said, "Brother Yin, I always think you look like a person. Did we meet in Jinling?"

Liu Mu smiled and said, "Your Majesty did stay in Jinling for a long time. If Mr. Wen was also in Jinling at that time, you and I might have met once."

Wen Siren asked, "Have you heard of the Liu family in Jinling?"

"You mean Liu Sheng, the richest businessman in Jinling at that time?"

"It's the Liu family."

Liu Mu said, "Back then, all the shops in the streets of Jinling belonged to their Liu family. The largest businessman on our grassland who has been running in the Central Plains and outside the customs all the year round is probably not as good as their Liu family's family business. Only the big house of the Liu family, I I will never forget it for the rest of my life. But later I heard that the Liu family was suspected of treason and was ransacked."

Wen Siren smiled and said, "That's right, that old man Liu Sheng is ambitious, relying on the fact that his ancestor was the former prime minister, he colluded with the rebellious officials and thieves in rebellion. Fortunately, my elder brother received the news early in the morning and caught that nest of rebels first. Now the Holy Majesty Zhai was kind enough to spare them the death penalty. I thought that Liu Mu, the eldest son of the Liu family, would change his past if he survived a catastrophe, but who would have thought that he would not change his mind and killed his original father-in-law and dozens of lives in the Yu family with his own hands? , and even molested the servant girl in Li's mansion, it's really insane. Fortunately, my cousin and I arrived in time to keep the maidservant's innocence."

Liu Mu clenched his fists and said, "I've heard that the sons and sisters of your big families in the Central Plains have more bad habits. I don't think this person is so incurable. If he came to our grassland, this kind of person should have been broken and thrown on the grassland long ago." was trampled to death by cattle and sheep."

Everyone had their own concerns and got slightly drunk before dispersing. Liu Mu seemed relaxed all night, but he kept talking without saying a word, as if all his attention was on Feng Linling and the fine wine in Feng's residence.Feng Langqu and Wen Siren didn't extract any desired information from Liu Mu, nor did they see any clues from Yu Wanran.Yu Wanran seemed normal all night, but she always suspected that the masked person in front of her was Liu Mu.But what Feng Linling thought in her heart couldn't be simpler in comparison.
