Chapter 64 Are you attracted to me?
"None of the three of them is behind this."
Chu Yangyang placed the account book on the table and said, "The sulfur that Uncle received was indeed used to treat horse plague. The manager of the Western Suburbs Horse Farm can testify to this."
She pointed to the black hair on the jade pendant and said, "Linghua did have an affair with Chu Shenhao, but at that time Chu Shenhao was still studying at the academy and had not returned home. He could not have done this and had no reason to do so."
Hearing this, Jin nodded repeatedly, "I said my Hao'er would never kill anyone."
"The real murderer had long anticipated that I would suspect my closest relatives," Chu Yangyang said. "At that time, I couldn't find any clues, so I had to let the case go. Until today, a new clue appeared, that is, the appearance of Juhong."
Chu Xinyao was also a little curious. "Juhong said that Xiao Renyu ordered her to do so, but at that time, Miss Xiao did not come to our Prime Minister's Mansion, so Miss Xiao should not be the murderer."
"You finally used your brain when speaking." Chu Yangyang suddenly praised Chu Xinyao, but Chu Xinyao didn't know why she couldn't be happy.
Xiao Renyu was still being held captive by the soldiers. She broke free and said, "I've already said I was wronged. Now I can prove it."
"It's just that Linghua's affairs have nothing to do with you." Chu Yangyang glanced at Xiao Renyu. She was too lazy to pretend to be kind to her now.
Chu Yangyang walked up to Juhong and asked, "Juhong, it's time for you to tell the truth. If you don't, you will end up like Linghua."
Juhong was shaking like a sieve. She quickly said, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you."
A few days ago, a masked man approached Juhong and threatened her with her seriously ill mother, asking her to choose an opportunity to act out this drama and point the finger at Xiao Renyu as the mastermind behind the scenes.
When Juhong saw Lan Yu come out to testify against Chu Yangyang today, she felt that this was a perfect opportunity and hurried out to make the matter clear.
But at this point, it seems as if the clue is broken again.
The man in black means who the murderer is, and even Juhong herself doesn't know.
Judging from her appearance, she doesn't look like she is lying.
Jiang Ning also realized that this matter would be delayed, so he said, "Princess, Doctor Luo, it's getting late today. I will take Xiao Renyu and Juhong back to the Dali Temple first. I will communicate with the Prime Minister and report on the progress later."
Luo Xifeng nodded slightly to express his gratitude.
Chu Yangyang bowed and said, "Thank you, Lord Jiang, for taking the trouble to come so late at night."
Jiang Ning led the officers and soldiers and took Xiao Renyu and Juhong away.
Seeing that there was nothing exciting to watch, the others found an excuse to leave.
In the huge front hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, only Luo Xifeng, Chu Yangyang, and two maids were left.
Chu Yangyang didn't even look at Luo Xifeng, turned around and left.
Seeing this, Luo Xifeng hurried to catch up with her.
"Princess, I have something to ask you."
Chu Yangyang heard his voice but did not stop and continued walking forward. Luo Xifeng could only follow behind.
Soon the two returned to Bishuiyunju.
As soon as Chu Yangyang entered the room, she turned around and wanted to close the door.
Luo Xifeng reacted very quickly and rushed in. The door only locked the maid outside, leaving only the two of them in the room.
Chu Yangyang said expressionlessly, "Lord Luo, it's so late at night, and you broke into my boudoir for no reason. What do you want to do?"
Luo Xifeng grabbed the bolt with one hand and rested his other hand on the door, pinning Chu Yangyang, who was trying to escape, against the wall in front of the door.
The aroma of medicine mixed with the scent of night dew hit me. "When you sent Nanny Leng to Hongyun Pawn Shop, we were still outside the Prime Minister's Mansion and didn't see what happened in the front hall. How did the princess predict the future?"
Chu Yangyang leaned her waist against the cold door. "When did Lord Luo become an investigating officer? He came to interrogate me as soon as he returned. Or is it because Lord Luo felt sorry for Miss Xiao being taken away that he came to trouble me?"
Luo Xifeng narrowed his eyes, his gaze deep and gloomy. "You don't have to talk about other things. Tell me first, how did you know the situation in advance?"
After saying that, he moved closer to Chu Yangyang again, forcing her to turn her face to the side, otherwise she would bump into his chest.
She just felt that the oppression was too strong, and she unconsciously put her palm on his chest and pushed him hard.
Unfortunately, he stood still, bent his head, and whispered in her ear, "Princess, you'd better tell the truth and don't play tricks."
The moonlight shines through the window sill, twisting the two people's shadows into a knot.
Chu Yangyang suddenly turned her head and faced him, but this action made him retreat and tilt his head back, and the two of them now had a small safe distance between them.
"Someone just told me in advance. I'm not a god, how can I predict the future?" Chu Yangyang made up an excuse.
Luo Xifeng's breath brushed against her earlobe. "Who told you in advance that you were with me the whole way? I didn't see anyone approaching you. How did you know?"
Chu Yangyang's throat tightened. "When I was at the clinic, a servant came to inform me. You were busy, so of course you didn't see it."
Luo Xifeng asked, "Which maid is it? I'll go find her and ask her."
Chu Yangyang was a little impatient. "Can you please just leave it alone? I haven't done anything harmful. Why do you need to know so much?"
"Because I'm worried about you!" Luo Xifeng suddenly blurted out.
She looked into his eyes which reflected the moonlight.
It was no longer poisonous ice, but rather melted snow, wrapped in unknown sparks, so bright that it was breathtaking.
Something suddenly occurred to her mind, and Chu Yangyang stood on tiptoe and moved closer to his Adam's apple, "Lord Luo, what are you worried about me for?"
"Are you worried that I'll be framed? Are you feeling sorry for me?"
Her voice was soft and gentle, like a spring breeze across the lake, making Luo Xifeng's heart tingle. Her fingertips brushed across his slightly rolled Adam's apple, "Lord Luo, you are not... attracted to me, are you?"
