Chapter 801 Invited to

After expressing her concern, she extended an invitation: "Tonight, there will be a phoenix reborn from the ashes at the Anmofang Theater in the south of the city. I heard it is very exciting. Do you want to go with me to watch it?"

Faced with the invitation to go out, Meng Shisan was somewhat tempted. Besides, this was the place where Ma Ji performed for a living. She had only heard Ma Ji say that he was a magician, but she had never seen him perform a magic trick: "... go."

Tong Yu's eyebrows suddenly jumped: "Miss, are you going?"

Didn’t the eldest master repeatedly instruct the young lady not to leave the house?
"Go." Meng Shisan was always trapped in the mansion, and in fact, she couldn't stand it any longer. Taking advantage of Dong Linglong's invitation, she just went out to get some fresh air, and said to Dong Linglong, "Then Yaya, have dinner at my place tonight."

"Okay." Dong Linglong agreed.

Tongyu then went to inform Shangchun that Meng Shisan was going out tonight, and that Dong Linglong would have dinner with Meng Shisan in the yard.

When Shangchun heard that Dong Linglong was going to stay for dinner, she didn't react too much and just made the arrangements. However, when she heard that her young lady was going to the theater to watch magic shows with the eldest lady of the Dong family at night, she slowly frowned.

Tongyu looked at him and asked, "Aunt Shangchun, do you want to inform the eldest master?"

"The eldest master has not returned home yet." Shangchun guessed, "When the eldest master returns home, Miss will have something to say to him, and she will probably tell him everything at that time."

The two people who were still feeding fish by the lake were now talking about the major case that occurred in Li Heng's private residence recently.

"I heard that the Second Prince didn't even report it to the capital government, but reported it directly to the Dali Temple." Dong Linglong told everything she knew, and after she finished speaking, she saw that Meng Shisan's expression did not change, "Do you know or not?"

Meng Shisan knew it: "I heard that the coroner at the Dali Temple has not yet produced any results after the autopsy."

Dong Linglong felt that the matter was not simple: "Except for Mr. Jin, the Second Prince's first counselor, who could clearly determine that he died by having his neck twisted, the rest of the retainers died in two different ways..."

"The locust tree branch pierced their heart and they died. The fire burned them to charcoal and they died." Meng Shisan continued, pointing at the koi fish under the water and asked Dong Linglong, "Do you think this fish is delicious?"

Dong Linglong was still immersed in the two ways of dying that Meng Shisan had mentioned. Suddenly, she was asked this question and her eyes moved down to a group of colorful koi carps swishing their tails to compete for food. She instinctively said, "Koi carps are only for viewing. Their meat is not delicious."

"But in order to achieve my goal, I not only caught one, I also ate it." Meng Shisan looked at Dong Linglong, "It tasted bad, but it filled my stomach."

Dong Linglong didn't say anything immediately. She felt that Meng Shisan must have some purpose for changing the topic from the case to eating fish so abruptly, but she couldn't think of it at the moment.

Meng Shisan smiled slightly, looking at Dong Linglong who was thinking hard. She didn't keep her in suspense and directly revealed what she wanted to express: "Sometimes, in order to achieve a goal, even if you know it is impossible, you still have to do it."

It turned out that Li Heng did not intend to assassinate her, hurt Baozhu, or use heavy hands on Feng Zheng. In fact, she did not want to bring her secret fight with him to an open end.

"Yaoyao..." Dong Linglong was stunned, "Your opinion on this case..."

"What you know, I know. What you don't know, I also know." Meng Shisan did not admit that she was the one who took the lead in killing those retainers. She personally killed Mr. Jin, but in front of Dong Linglong, her close friend, she was able to reveal some things. "Are you interested in this case?"

Dong Linglong nodded: "So many people were killed in one day. Even if those people were instigated by the Second Prince and had done so many evil things in their daily lives, they deserved to die, especially the one with the surname Jin. My eldest brother said that he specifically gave the Second Prince the idea of ​​killing them all. Now, everyone in the private house except the servants was killed. It can be said that evil deeds pay off. I am interested because I want to know who did it." She lowered her voice unconsciously at the last sentence.

Meng Shisan said, "After you know who did it, do you still want to make friends with her?"

"Is it not possible?" Dong Linglong shared this idea with Dong Wushuang. Dong Wushuang looked at her in disbelief. She didn't understand why it was not possible.

Meng Shisan never expected that Dong Linglong had such a different idea: "Aren't you afraid? After all, he killed a hundred people in one breath. The coroner at the Dali Temple had to work for several days to perform the autopsy, and he still couldn't finish it."

This is real.

This morning, before going to court, my eldest cousin went to Taichen Court to talk to her.

The purpose of Tete telling her this was simply that he didn't want her to lose control and go out again.

Unfortunately it had little effect. She had to go watch the magic show with Yaya tonight no matter what.

"Yes, I heard that the autopsies haven't been completed yet. But I also heard that the coroner from the Dali Temple reported it early on, saying that the fatal injuries were the same, the manner of death was the same, and even if the autopsies were not completed one by one, the autopsy results could still be obtained..." At this point, Dong Linglong thought of another question, "But for some reason, the coroner from the Dali Temple didn't do so."

As a result, the autopsy results have not yet been released.

After thinking for a while, she answered Meng Shisan's original question: "I'm not afraid, I'm just afraid that people don't want to pay attention to me at all."

She has been wielding swords and sticks since she was a child, and she admires those chivalrous men who draw their swords to help others when they see injustice.

In her eyes, the one who can kill all the private residence guests who help the tyrant without fear of the power of the dragon son is the chivalrous man she wants to make friends with.

Meng Shisan smiled but said nothing.

At present, she has no plans to expose herself.

Meng Renping returned to his mansion after leaving office. He went to Jianfeng Courtyard to wash up, changed into casual clothes, and sat down to have dinner while listening to Gao Jin reporting to him.

"... Miss Dong came to invite you to go out to watch a magic show tonight, and you agreed." Gao Jin calculated the time. "Miss Dong and I should be finishing our dinner soon. Miss Dong said that the young master is back, so she came to see him. After talking to him, Miss Dong and I will set off to Anmofang Theater."

"South of the city..." Meng Renping's first reaction was not to blame Meng Shisan for leaving the house at this critical moment, but because the south of the city was a bit far, he was worried about his cousin's safety, "Have you arranged for escorts?"

Gao Jin said, "The Madam has already made arrangements for the carriage and servants, including guards, maids, and four strong women who can serve the young lady. In addition, the guard Sha who has been guarding our house has also been informed and is just waiting for the young lady to step out of the house. Guard Sha will also bring the guards of the Eastern Palace to protect her in secret."

Baisha knows, which is equivalent to Ji Kuan knowing and Li Shou knowing.

When Li Shou learned the news, he had not yet had dinner. He was flipping through the memorials and came to the one about recent affairs. He watched Chang Qing direct the young eunuchs to file in and fill the dining table in front of him in a blink of an eye.
