"etc"
When Zou Heng heard Qin Jue say "wait," he stopped and walked up to Qin Jue.
"What's wrong, Your Majesty?"
"Go check on the shop that's on fire."
"yes"
Qin Jue and Zou Heng arrived at the burned-down shop.
"What did Zhao Feng say about these shops?"
"Lord Zhao said it was likely arson; some houses were surrounded by oil and spicy liquor."
Qin Jue looked around and said, "That's right, let him investigate along this line of thought."
"yes"
"Tell me what happened with the dead."
Qin Jue and Zou Heng walked and talked, and soon arrived at the mortuary where the corpses were kept.
Sixteen corpses from the south of the city were placed in the mortuary.
"These thirteen corpses belong to residents living in the south of the city."
"These three corpses belong to the shop assistants in the south of the city."
Qin Jue walked over to each of the thirteen corpses and examined them one by one. They had all been killed with a single blow, the wounds all on their necks.
"Was anything missing from the dead person's house?"
Zou Heng thought for a moment, then looked up immediately, "All the families who died had daughters; almost all the deceased in those seven families were women."
"On the third day, there should still be missing women and children, but they probably haven't come to the Dali Temple to report it yet."
"Have Zhao Feng lead a team to investigate the twenty-seven fires and shop fires. You go and investigate the seven deaths and the missing women and children."
"It was likely done by three parties."
"Yes, I'll go right away."
After Zou Heng and his men left to investigate the case, Qin Jue also left the mortuary and strolled slowly along the streets of the south of the city.
They would buy any cute toys they saw at the stalls and have Sanwako carry them for them. They even browsed shops selling clothes and beaded flowers.
Of course, there are also various pastry shops.
Have you heard?
"What did you hear?"
"On Zhu Ning Street, there was a three-year-old girl riding on the back of a large white tiger."
"Really?"
"Won't the tiger eat her?"
"It's true, everyone on Zhu Ning Street is staying far away."
Standing in front of the beaded flower stall, Qin Jue overheard passersby talking and immediately thought of Xiao Xi'er and Sha Ting.
Instead of picking out a beaded flower for Xiaoxi at the stall, he walked directly towards Zhu Ning Street.
Qin Jue had just taken a step with his right foot when Jun Qingzhi arrived behind him.
"Young master, isn't that the father of that little dumpling?"
"How dare you call someone 'milk dumpling'?"
"Young master, what should I call you?"
Miss Xiao
"OK"
Yu Feng changed his address, and Jun Qingzhi followed behind Qin Jue.
——————
"Fang Xuxu (Fang Zixu), where are we going?"
"Didn't you want to come out? You can go wherever you want."
"Hmm... I don't know either."
Little Xi'er sat on Sha Ting's back for a moment, then said to Sha Ting, "Kitty~, let's go find Daddy."
"Miss, we don't know where the master is, so it's best not to let Shatin wander off."
"Otherwise, what if we run too far away and encounter danger?"
"Roar—!!!"
"Kitty~, sweetie."
"Kitties are the best!"
Xiao Xi'er stroked Sha Ting's head, coaxing him. Hearing Xiao Xi'er's words, Sha Ting closed his tiger mouth, raised his head high, and looked at Chun He disdainfully.
The surrounding people had already been frightened by the tiger's roar and had taken refuge inside their houses; the shop doors were all closed.
Some people were hiding behind the stalls, and whether they were hiding inside the house or behind the stalls, their eyes were always on Xiaoxi'er and Shating.
"Kitty~, can you find Daddy?"
"Of course! Come on, let me, Tiger King, take you to find it."
"good"
Fang Zixu tugged at Wei Yuanxuan's sleeve, "You know, my wife... no, you know, why is Xiaoxi talking to a tiger?"
Do you think this tiger can understand?
Wei Yuanxuan quickly caught what Fang Zixu had just said, "my wife."
"You said Xiao Xi'er is your wife, does Xiao Xi'er agree?"
"Aren't you afraid your dad will beat you?"
Wei Yuanxuan spoke ruthlessly.
"She's seen everything about me, she has to take responsibility for me!!"
Fang Zixu, unconvinced, shouted it out, drawing the attention of Chunhe and the other two.
Xia Ju looked shocked and tugged at Chun He's hand.
"Chunhe, what did he just say?"
Chunhe didn't answer Xiaju's question, but turned to ask Xiaoxi'er.
"Miss, you...you really read all of Young Master Fang's text?"
"Uh-huh"
"So, Miss, will you become Young Master Fang's wife in the future?"
Yes, yes.
Chunhe looked utterly bewildered, and was also wondering if Qin Jue would beat her and Xia Ju to death if he found out.
Not long after they started walking, Qin Jue appeared.
Upon seeing Qin Jue, Sha Ting immediately grabbed Xiao Xi'er and ran over to her.
Sha Ting came to a steady stop in front of Qin Jue.
Qin Jue saw that it was indeed Xiao Xi'er, and became somewhat angry, glaring at her with a stern face.
"Who let you out?"
"When I woke up and looked for my father, I heard him saying he was leaving the palace, and then, hehehe..."
"Don't laugh."
Unfortunately, Xiao Xi'er wasn't afraid of Qin Jue and was still laughing. Qin Jue quickly scooped Xiao Xi'er, who was sitting on Sha Ting's back, into his arms.
She said, with a mix of anger and indulgence, "You, you never listen, you deserve a spanking."
As he spoke, Qin Jue gently patted Xiao Xi'er's bottom with his big hand.
"Hehehe, it doesn't hurt at all~, hehehehe."
You're just taking advantage of the fact that I won't really hit you.
"whee"
Xiao Xi smiled and kissed Qin Jue twice on the cheek.
