So who was it that was so impatient to kill Lou Qianxue?
Is he Lou Qianxue’s enemy, or someone from southern Xinjiang?
If they are from southern Xinjiang, why are they in such a hurry? Are they afraid of exposing something? Is there some unspeakable secret?
Xie Ling slowly took off her gloves and disinfected her hands.
Lin Qianzhong just happened to come over, and after seeing Lou Qianxue's body, he frowned slightly, "I didn't kill her."
Xie Ling nodded, "I know. Do you know if there are any weird people or people with extraordinary abilities in Huainan, the kind that can run around in aristocratic families?"
Lin Qianzhong thought for a moment, "Now that you mention it, there is one. This person is called Master Qingfeng. He often travels between the aristocratic families and the royal family. He has a very high prestige."
Xie Ling: "Has he ever been to your house?"
Lin Qianzhong replied: "He came here four years ago. At that time, the Lin family just moved to a new house, and invited him to the altar."
Xie Ling nodded thoughtfully.
Lin Qianzhong was puzzled: "What does this matter?"
Xie Ling shook her head. "Nothing, just asking. It's just my guess. If I find out something concrete, I'll tell you. I can't explain it clearly right now."
Lin Qian nodded, "Okay, if you need me, please let me know."

He was dusty and had a slightly tired look on his face. "I found out that when the current emperor was still the crown prince, he did have a maid named Xiao Lizi, but she was later given to a man named Qingfeng. I guess this little maid might be the one we are looking for."
Gu Wei frowned as he spoke, "Xiao Ning said that Little Li was able to leave the beast farm because he was loved by the prince. But I read the palace records and found that the prince didn't value Little Li at all. There's something fishy about this."
After Xie Ling finished listening, she grasped the key words, "Master Qingfeng?"
"Yes, that's the name. How did you know?"
Xie Ling told Gu Wei that Lou Qianxue was strangled to death.
Gu Wei frowned and reasoned with his slender hands on the table.
"Why did they want to kill Lou Qianxue? They must not want to reveal their identities. Although the matter of the poison is secret, there are still many people in the world who know about it. They would not take such a big risk to kill someone to silence him. This can only mean that they have other intentions... Do you think they are a complete and mature organization, and have a leader who often shows up to look for information?"
