Distressed wife

Chapter 523 The murderer behind the scenes (2)
"Okay." Lei Yichen looked at Mu Ziyan and said, "Miss Lv Er's words awakened the dreamer, but made me feel ashamed."

"If it were someone else, I'm afraid they won't be able to calm down as quickly as Mr. Lei." Mu Ziyan said calmly, "Mr. Lei, the corpses in the mansion can no longer be placed in the courtyard. The clues have not been found yet, it is better to bury it as soon as possible."

"I must find the murderer, otherwise, the innocent souls of Leihou's Mansion will die in peace." Lei Yichen looked at Mu Ziyan and said.

Seeing what he said, Mu Ziyan nodded and said, "If that's the case, let's wait for seven days, after the first seven days have passed."

"Miss Lu Er is a mild-tempered person, but I am too restrained. Since this is a matter of the Leihou Mansion, I should investigate this matter myself." Lei Yichen continued, "I will enter the palace now. Please order."

"It's not too late for Mr. Lei to enter the palace tomorrow. It's getting late now. I found some clues. Why don't you tell Mr. Lei?" Mu Ziyan looked at Lei Yichen and said.

"Alright." Seeing what Mu Ziyan said, Lei Yichen responded readily.

Zhang Zong came with Mrs. Lu, and seeing that Lei Yichen had regained his sanity, Mrs. Lu stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty Lei, you have been traveling all night. I think you haven't eaten yet. I ordered someone to prepare some food. Why don't you go back to the government office first?" how?"

Lei Yichen looked at Mrs. Lu and then at Mu Ziyan, looking a little restrained. After all, he was not very familiar with them, and he only had a casual acquaintance with Zhang Zong.

But now at this time, the people they used to know are not around, but they are caring, and it is inevitable that they have mixed feelings in their hearts, but they don't know how to respond.

While hesitating, she saw a few people walking outside, Mu Ziyan turned her eyes and saw that it was Zhang Ni, Qi Xuan and Mu Lingxuan, Su Qinrou and Hou Yiyi, and even Qi Xueer had arrived.

Mu Ziyan looked at the few of them, and said in a low voice, "The daughter of the people has met all the princes and young ladies."

"Second Sister Lu is being polite again." Su Qinrou stepped forward to hold Mu Ziyan's hand, frowning slightly, and then stuffed her hand stove into her hand, "Why is it so cold."

Mu Ziyan smiled and said, "I forgot it for a while."

"Look, now I only remember my younger sister, but I don't remember my older sister." Lady Lu said from the side.

Hou Yiyi stepped forward and quickly handed over the stove in her hand, "Sister Lu, I remember."

"Brother Lei." The three of Mu Lingxuan stepped forward and cupped their hands, and glanced at the corpses lying behind them. At this moment, like Zhang Zong, they couldn't say any words of comfort, and everything seemed to be in silence.

Lei Yichen didn't expect that the three of them would come, and his mood became more and more complicated at this moment.

"Senior Lei, why don't we go back to Jingzhao Yin Yamen together first." Mu Ziyan suggested.

"En." Lei Yichen knew that it would be wrong to hesitate any longer.

Therefore, the group went back to Jingzhao Yin Yamen, and when they entered the back hall, Mu Ziyan and Mrs. Lu were busy with their work, Su Qinrou and Hou Yiyi also followed, and Qi Xueer stood beside Mu Ziyan. Beside him, "Second Sister Lu, have you eaten?"

"No." Mu Ziyan sighed, "No, I was dragged over as soon as I came back."

"Yes." Su Qinrou looked at Mu Ziyan, "Second Sister Lu, can I help you with this matter?"

"I'm glad you can come here." Mu Ziyan didn't expect that they would come here at this time, and she felt very relieved in her heart.

"This matter is related to the top ten families, so they must come." Zhang Yu said bluntly.

"Not bad." Qi Xuan also echoed.

Mu Ziyan raised her eyebrows, looked at the two of them, "The two sons are so close?"

"It's just a consensus." Zhang Yu replied with a smile, and then looked at Lei Yichen, "Brother Lei, we can avoid talking about those scenes. The most urgent thing now is to find the murderer as soon as possible. Since Leihou's mansion can do this, it is hard to guarantee In the future, other aristocratic families will not be treated like this, this is clearly a provocation."

Qi Xuan nodded and said, "In that case, let's find out the real culprit together."

"That's true." Mu Lingxuan replied in a low voice, "I don't know what Master Zhang can find out?"

Lei Yichen sat at the side but felt a little at a loss, seeing that the group of people in front of him were very familiar, but he seemed like an outsider. He had never realized that he was so out of place before, but now he felt that in times of crisis, he could It is good to have such a group of confidants to accompany.

"It's too clean." Zhang Zong said with a sigh.

Mrs. Lu came with tea, and after she put it down, she said in a low voice, "I checked all the corpses here, and all of them were fatal with a single knife. The technique was extremely fast, and there was no resistance at all."

Mu Ziyan looked at them, and then said, "But they still left traces."

"Traces?" At this moment, everyone's eyes fell on Mu Ziyan.

Mu Ziyan said in a low voice, "Sister Lu, have you noticed that there is a deviation in the time of their death?"

"Judging from the temperature and stiffness of the corpse, as well as the spots on the corpse, they were indeed killed last night." Lady Lu said while looking at Mu Ziyan.

"Think about it carefully." Mu Ziyan looked at Lady Lu and said.

Lady Lu looked at Mu Ziyan, "I checked carefully ten times, and there is no deviation."

"That's good." Mu Ziyan got up, stepped out of the house, and came back in the yard, with snow under her feet, and footprints on the bluestone floor, she looked at Mrs. Lu, "So?"

"No wonder." Mrs. Lu suddenly realized, and stood up abruptly, "So that's how I didn't think of it."

"Sister Lu, what's the matter?" Su Qinrou looked at Lady Lu's expression and asked in puzzlement.

"Sister, how did you find out?" Mrs. Lu stepped forward and asked excitedly, which made Zhang Zong speechless. He had never seen Mrs. Lu so excited before.

Mu Ziyan said in a low voice, "It was Mr. Lei who gave me the reminder."

"Me?" Lei Yichen raised his eyes to look at Mu Ziyan, doubts flashed across his eyes.

"En." Mu Ziyan nodded in response, "Master Lei has been kneeling in the yard all day."

"That's right." Mrs. Lu continued, "Then they were not killed last night, but two hours earlier."
