  Chapter 405 Who killed it?

  On the stage, the piano sounded.

  Several graceful women in tulle, gracefully Nana, came out from the backstage and began to dance to the sound of the piano.

   There was a lot of applause from the audience.

  Someone was shouting: "Miss Tang, let Huayue come out and meet us."

  Someone agrees.

   Someone laughed: "You are not qualified."

  Luo Qingzhou didn't dare to stand on the stage, turned his head, and looked out the window.

  It is already evening, and the setting sun is slightly drunk.

  The sunset is reflected in the lake, sparkling.

  The following boat was still swaying not far away.

   Behind that boat, another boat followed. A woman stood at the bow, looking quite familiar.

   "Princess, that person seems to be Aunt Mu."

  Luo Qingzhou said suddenly.

   Nangong Meijiao turned her head, glanced out of the window, then suddenly looked at him again and said, "Is your eyesight so good? I can't even see clearly."

  Luo Qingzhou paused, still looking outside, and said calmly: "I have good eyesight since I was a child, maybe it was born with it. Just like when I read a book, I can remember it after reading it a few times."

Nangong Meijiao stared at him for a few more times, Fang looked at the following boat outside the window, and said, "They still seem to be unwilling to give up. How about letting them taste the lime after dark? ?”

  Luo Qingzhou looked at her and said, "Is it dangerous for the princess to act alone?"

   Nangong Meijiao also looked at him and said, "Didn't I give you a bag of lime? Then you can go with me."

  The two looked at each other.

  Luo Qingzhou said: "I don't know how to scatter."

   Nangong Meijiao said indifferently: "It's okay, I can just practice tonight. With my guidance, you should learn it soon."

  Luo Qingzhou avoided his eyes and looked outside.

   Nangong Meijiao still stared at him.

  At this time, Tang Yan'er suddenly walked over with a smile all over her face, and said, "Mr. Luo, can you go backstage with me?"

  Luo Qingzhou looked at her, before speaking, Nangong Meijiao suddenly said: "I wrote that poem, should I go?"

  Tang Yan'er smiled and said: "Miss Gong, sit down for a while. I have a girl who has admired Mr. Luo for a long time. I just learned that Mr. Luo is on the boat. I really want to see Mr. Luo."

  Nangong Meijiao looked at someone opposite and asked, "Do you want to go?"

  Luo Qingzhou apologized to Tang Yan'er: "Miss Tang, I won't go. My wife is very strict and won't let me see strange women. You also know that I am a son-in-law and I can't help myself."

  As soon as these words came out, Tang Yan'er was stunned for a moment, glanced at the girl opposite him, and said, "Didn't Mr. Luo's wife not come?"

  Luo Qingzhou pouted towards the opposite side: "She is my wife's best friend."

  Tang Yan'er was slightly stunned, and suddenly understood, looked at Nangong Meijiao, and said with a smile: "Miss Gong, don't worry, I'm just taking Mr. Luo to talk, and I will never do anything out of line."

  Nangong Meijiao said calmly: "Don't tell me, it has nothing to do with me. Ask him if you want to go."

  Tang Yan'er said: "Mr. Luo..."

"I do not want to."

  Luo Qingzhou directly refused, saying: "Sorry, Miss Tang."

  Tang Yaner frowned slightly, looked at the two of them again, said with a smile without saying anything, "Then I'll reply."

   After finishing speaking, he turned and left.

  After she walked away, Luo Qingzhoufang lowered his head and looked under the table.

  The two long legs under the purple skirt have already stretched to his side, and two feet are stepping on his two feet.

  Luo Qingzhou didn't speak, just lowered his head and watched motionlessly.

   After a while.

   Nangong Meijiao finally couldn't help but asked, "What are you looking at?"

  Luo Qingzhou said: "Look at your feet."

"abnormal!"

  Nangong Meijiao's two feet immediately retracted and hid them under the dress, faintly visible, her eyes glaring at him.

  Luo Qingzhou looked up at her and said, "Princess, I'm looking at my feet. Is this also abnormal?"

  Nangong Meijiao narrowed her eyes and looked at him dangerously.

  Luo Qingzhou turned his head to look outside, and said, "Aunt Mu is here, I don't know if he found the stalker on that boat."

  Nangong Meijiao glanced outside, frowned, with a hint of doubt on her face: "I asked her to wait on the shore, why did she come here?"

   Immediately got up and said, "I'll go out and have a look."

  Just a few steps away, he suddenly turned his head to look at him, and said coldly: "Luo Qingzhou, if I come back later and find you are not there, where do you think the fifty bags of lime on my body will go?"

   After finishing speaking, he gave him a warning look, walked away quickly with long legs.

  Luo Qingzhou watched her walk out of the cabin, reached out and took out the handkerchief from her bosom, and carefully recalled her demeanor and words, not only secretly said: Have you already begun to doubt? Was it a test just now?

   While thinking, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind him.

  He put away the handkerchief, picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and looked out the window.

  But suddenly, he felt a chill coming from behind him, as if something was invading his body, spying on his soul.

  He remained calm and continued to look out the window.

  The noisy voice in the hall unexpectedly quieted down strangely.

   A gust of fragrant wind suddenly hit.

   Immediately, a young girl stood in front of him and said softly, "I have seen Mr. Luo."

  The voice is gentle and nice.

  Luo Qingzhou turned his head and looked, the girl in front of him was wearing a pink dress, she looked quite charming, and she was looking at him with bright eyes.

  But Luo Qingzhou didn't take another look at her, instead he looked behind her.

  A maidservant in Tsing Yi stood behind her, saw his gaze, exchanged glances with him, and immediately lowered her head, looking timid.

  However, Luo Qingzhou felt inexplicably creepy.

   "Mr. Luo, can Huayue sit down?"

  The girl in the pink skirt said softly.

  Luo Qingzhou looked at her and said, "Miss Huayue, my lady will be here later. If you have anything to say, you can speak directly."

  At this time, there were suddenly angry accusations in the hall.

   "Who is that person? Miss Huayue went to see him on her own initiative, but he sat there without moving."

   "Even those talented scholars in Jiangnan don't have such a big airs?"

   "The girl Huayue is really beautiful, I finally got a glimpse of her beauty today, and I still got the honor of that kid, otherwise the girl Huayue probably wouldn't come out..."

   Huayue looked at the handsome young man in front of her, took out the rice paper in her hand and said, "Mr. Luo, the little poem just now should be written by you, right?"

  Luo Qingzhou said: "It was written by my lady."

  Hua Yue smiled softly, her brows were full of charm, and said softly: "Master, can you move to the study of the slave family? The slave family wants to talk to the master."

  When the other people in the hall heard this, their eyes were red, their faces were full of envy and hatred, and they wished to get up and go for him immediately.

  Luo Qingzhou got up directly and said, "Sorry, I have to go out to accompany my lady."

   After finishing speaking, ignoring the stunned gazes of the girl and others, she immediately left quickly and walked out of the cabin.

  Aunt Mu's boat is already approaching Huafang.

   Nangong Meijiao jumped up and was talking to Aunt Mu in a low voice.

  When Luo Qingzhou walked to the side of the boat, Nangong Meijiao looked at him in surprise and said, "Why are you out?"

  Luo Qingzhou hurriedly whispered: "Princess, follow me, I want to jump up."

   After finishing speaking, he jumped directly towards the boat.

  Nangong Meijiao was stunned for a moment, and just about to reach out to pick it up, she suddenly retracted her hand.

"boom!"

  Luo Qingzhou landed on the boat, but suddenly staggered forward, and was about to fall to the ground in the cabin, but Aunt Mu grabbed him.

  After Luo Qingzhou stood firm, with a look of shock on his face, he hurriedly said: "Thank you, Aunt Mu."

   Nangong Meijiao asked suspiciously: "Luo Qingzhou, why are you panicking? Did you see a ghost?"

Before Luo Qingzhou could speak, Huayue had already chased him out, stood on the side of the boat, and was about to cry: "Mr. Luo, Huayue just wanted to talk to you, and there was absolutely no other reason for it. Your request, the young master is not willing to satisfy Huayue?"

  Luo Qingzhou cupped his hands and said: "Miss Huayue, I have a wife, so I can't get too close to other women. Melon fields and plums will always attract criticism. I'm sorry."

  He glanced at the maid in Tsing Yi behind her, and whispered to Aunt Mu next to her, "Aunt Mu, let the boatman go."

  Aunt Mu glanced at him, and then at her young lady.

  Nangong Meijiao said with a cold face: "Let's go."

  Aunt Mu immediately went over to give instructions to the boatman.

  The boatman agreed, supported the penny, and the boat began to retreat, turning the bow.

  Luo Qingzhou got into the cabin directly.

   Nangong Meijiao took another look at the charming woman standing on the side of the boat, turned around and entered the cabin, and sarcastically said, "Why are you so self-conscious today?"

  Luo Qingzhou glanced outside and said, "She invited me to her room to talk, I'm scared."

  As soon as these words came out, Nangong Meijiao couldn't help laughing "puchi", and then snorted coldly: "What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that people will eat you?"

   Even Aunt Mu, who was next to her, laughed.

  Luo Qingzhou didn't speak again.

  Nangong Meijiao sneered: "I'm just talking to you, Luo Qingzhou, I'm afraid you're overthinking it. No matter how talented you are, they might not agree with you."

  Luo Qingzhou looked at her and said, "Princess, why don't I go up again?"

   Nangong Meijiao raised her eyebrows and said, "You can try."

  Luo Qingzhou didn't speak any more, and looked at the blue figure on the side of the boat that was fading away, the hair on his back was still standing upside down.

  At this time, the sunset is about to set.

  The light on the surface of the lake began to dim.

  The boat turned around and headed towards the shore where it came from.

  Aunt Mu glanced at the back, and whispered: "Miss, they are still following, do you want to deal with it?"

   Nangong Meijiao said: "They still don't know what happened on the shore?"

  Aunt Mu said: "I probably don't know, or I would have gone back long ago."

  Luo Qingzhou asked curiously: "What happened on the shore?"

Nangong Meijiao glanced at him, and said: "Actually, there are three people following us, one of them is the person who played football with us in the palace in the morning, he is in Zhang Yan'er's team, but he was killed on the shore just now gone."

  Luo Qingzhou's face was full of surprise: "Who killed it?"

   Immediately, he came to his senses, looked at the woman opposite and asked, "Is it Aunt Mu?"

Aunt Mu shook her head, and said solemnly: "I don't know who killed him. I was watching him across the road when I found him, but he suddenly lost his head and fell to the ground. I didn't even Saw the killer, didn't see the weapon."

  Luo Qingzhou thought for a while, and said: "Could it be that there are warriors standing in the distance, using hidden weapons?"

   Nangong Meijiao glanced at him.

  Aunt Mu said: "I think so too. But the opponent is a warrior, and I don't know what hidden weapon can cut off his head without anyone noticing."

Luo Qingzhou said: "I once read a martial arts novel, in which a hidden weapon is an extremely sharp silk thread, transparent and hard to see, killing people invisible. As long as the speed is fast enough, it is as sharp as a sword, and it is easy to cut people's heads. "

  Aunt Mu looked at him and said, "Young master Luo knows a lot. But warriors are not ordinary people. The skin, muscles, and bones have strong defenses, and silk threads may not work."

  Luo Qingzhou let out an "oh" and stopped talking nonsense.

Nangong Meijiao looked at him for a while, and said: "Luo Qingzhou, think about how to get rid of the follower behind you. These two people can't be killed yet, let them go back, and tell the palace about the death of the man on the shore. The one here, maybe you can let her be quiet for a while, after all, that person died very strangely."

  Luo Qingzhou glanced at the shore, and said: "Actually, there is no need to think of another way. When they go to the shore and see the man's body, they will naturally stop following them."

   Nangong Meijiao raised her head and looked towards the shore.

  Although a long time has passed, the shore is still full of people, and the decapitated body of that person seems to be still lying there.

  The people from the government have already arrived, and they are still at the autopsy and investigation site.

  The boat quickly came to the shore.

  The three of them went ashore, walked behind the crowd of onlookers, and glanced inside, only to see blood all over the ground, and the corpse had been covered with a white cloth.

  An area of ​​20 meters in radius was cleared and sealed off.

  The people from the government were searching for clues, and someone climbed up on the willow tree next to it, examining it carefully.

  The two following men didn't know what happened. After they landed, they also leaned behind the crowd and stretched their necks to watch the excitement.

  When Zuo lifted the white cloth, revealing a **** head with wide-eyed eyes, the two men were shocked all over, their faces turned pale with fright.

   "Let's go."

   Nangong Meijiao glanced at the two of them, then turned and walked across the road.

  The three got into the carriage and left quickly.

  When the two men reacted, the carriage had disappeared into the busy street.

  The carriage soon arrived at Maple Leaf Alley, but did not enter.

Nangong Meijiao took out a porcelain bottle, handed it to Luo Qingzhou, and said solemnly: "This is the morning dew from the Xuantian Jade Girl Tree given by Xiaorui, take it back, and I won't go there. My carriage It’s too conspicuous, you have to go back to the inner city quickly. You can’t run around in the past few days, go back and tell Weimo everything about today, and ask everyone not to go out for the time being. I will send someone to check the situation, if there is any news , I will come to inform you.”

  Luo Qingzhou took the porcelain vase and said, "Thank you Princess."

  Just as she was about to go down, Nangong Meijiao suddenly said: "Practice what I taught you at home, and I will come to check when the time comes."

  Luo Qingzhou nodded, got out of the carriage, looked around, and quickly walked into the alley.

   On the carriage, the curtains were opened.

   Nangong Meijiao was in the carriage, watching his back quietly, and suddenly said: "Aunt Mu, Luo Qingzhou took a bath in the palace today, where are the dirty clothes he changed?"

  Aunt Mu was taken aback when she heard the words, and said, "It must have been thrown away by the maid."

   Nangong Meijiao did not speak again.

  Aunt Mu glanced at her, and said, "What are you doubting, miss?"

  Nangong Meijiao looked at the empty alley, was silent for a while, and murmured: "I don't know either."

  Aunt Mu glanced at the darkened sky, and said, "Miss, it's time to go."

  Nangong Meijiao lowered the curtains and said, "Let's go."

  The carriage slowly left the alley.

  A moment later, Nangong Meijiao's voice suddenly came from the carriage: "Aunt Mu, go to the pharmacy later."

  Aunt Mu was slightly taken aback when she heard the words, and asked doubtfully, "What kind of medicine does Miss want to buy?"

   Nangong Meijiao said: "Poison powder, drug addict."

   Then he said: "Go to the grocery store again, I want to buy a gas mask, and buy some black wire."

  Aunt Mu was stunned for a moment, and said: "Miss bought these..."

   "Don't worry, I won't use it on ordinary people. These are hidden weapons to take people's lives, and I know the severity."

   "Miss, do you really believe that kid? Silk threads can take people's heads?"

   There was a moment of silence in the carriage.

   Then said: "Letter."
