[R18] Dali Temple.Qing (Shuangjie solves the case 1v1) – “Dali Temple. Qing (Shuangjie solves the case 1v1)” Chapter 73 Dawn [English]
byAfter leaving Lin Wanqing’s house and turning the corner of the corridor, Su Moyi saw Liang Weiping and Ye Qing walking towards them.
“Sir,” Ye Qing bowed to him, “all the assassin’s corpses have been cleaned up, and nothing strange was found on them.”
Su Moyi was a little disappointed when she heard this, but when she turned around, she saw Liang Weiping on the side, holding a bowl of steaming medicinal soup in his hand.
“Are you going?” he asked knowingly.
“Let’s go see Lin Xiandi and ask for some clues about the assassins.” Liang Weiping replied.
Su Moyi couldn’t help but frown.
Although Liang Weiping and Lin Wanqing have always been called brothers, they heard him call each other “good brother”. That night, the scene of bumping into the two of them outside the Dongshi snack shop came to mind again.
So with a cold face, he took the bowl of medicine from Liang Weiping’s hand and handed it to Ye Qing.
“It’s enough for one person to inquire and deliver medicine.”
After finishing speaking, he put his hands behind his back and gave Liang Weiping a sideways glance as he passed by.
“Master Liang,” Su Moyi’s voice was so cold that it could freeze.
Liang Weiping shuddered.
“Follow me.” Su Mo recalled.
“Ah, ah?” Before Liang Weiping could ask clearly, he saw Mr. Su walking away like a gust of wind.
He had no choice but to follow him at a trot.
The two went to Lai Luo’s house.
When she went in, she had just finished bandaging her wounds and was crying as the doctor gave her medicine.Seeing the two people coming, she managed to relax her frown, and looked at Su Moyi with eyes as sharp as a sword.
Su Moyi chuckled, but didn’t care much.Liang Weiping saw that he was about to sit down, so he quickly pulled out a round stool for him from the side.
“Tell me about your identity.” He straightened his robe leisurely and spoke calmly.
Ignoring he, he knocked the empty bowl in his hand.
Su Moyi wasn’t angry either. She looked at her in her usual cool manner and continued to ask, “Who are you?”
The ding-ding-dong-dong sound of the bowl suddenly stopped, and Lai Luo looked up at he.A pair of blue eyes are like the deepest sea water, calm but also dangerous.
After a while, she sneered and said in a bad tone: “Are you blind, sir? Who else could Lai Luo be? Of course he is a barbarian.”
“Clang——”
Liang Weiping’s legs went weak when he heard Lai Luo’s answer. When he was about to sit down, he bumped into the table and the cups on it made a loud noise.
However, neither of the two people, whose emotions were quite subtle, seemed to have heard it, and they were still in a tit-for-tat and tense state.
Su Moyi was not annoyed, she raised her lips and smiled, and said in a deep voice slowly: “In that case, let me ask another question.”
“You killed both Song Zhengxing and Wang Hu, right?”
The determined tone turned a question into a statement.
Lai Luo ignored he at all and began to knock on the bowl carelessly again. The sound of tinkling-ding-dong-dong seemed messy and weird in the silent night.
Su Moyi paused and said: “Song Zhengxing was killed in prison by someone piercing his left and right ears with twigs; Wang Hu’s throat was sealed with a sword, and most of his neck was cut open. Only professionally trained assassins can do such cruel and precise techniques.”
Lai Luo continued to play with the bowl in his hand expressionlessly, not interested in Su Moyi’s words at all.
Su Mo glanced at her and continued: “I have heard of a female assassin a few years ago. She kills as she pleases and never repeats her techniques. Everything at hand can be used by her, and her attack is a life. She also has a very appropriate name, ‘madman’.”
“That’s you, right?”
“Crack–” A small hole was knocked out of the white porcelain bowl in his hand. In the dim candlelight, Lai Luo raised his head and looked at Su Moyi.
“Yes, that’s me.” She smiled with relief and admitted readily.
Su Moyi’s face darkened when she heard this, and her tone suddenly became cold, “Are you from Prince Liang?”
Lai Luo was stunned, and a trace of confusion flashed in his blue eyes, “I’m not he’s person.”
“Then why did you kill someone for him?” Su Moyi asked.
“I didn’t kill people for him.” Lai Luo defended: “I just like killing people. I kill people, and he gives me money. Just like when you go to a master to explain and chant sutras when you are in trouble, can you say that the master is yours?”
“…” Su Moyi was stunned by Lai Luo’s confusing understanding, but she quickly calmed down and continued to ask: “Then when you killed Wang Hu, you massacred the entire Jingzhao Mansion Prison because…”
“Because I was in a bad mood that day.” Lai Luo said.
“…” Su Moyi interrogated a prisoner for the first time until he was speechless.
But Lai Luo sighed and didn’t take it seriously, “Originally, they didn’t let me kill Aunt Zhao according to my own ideas, so I wasn’t very happy. Later, they said that my hands and feet were dirty and asked me to go to Jingzhao Prison to kill another person.”
She paused and said sincerely: “So I was in a bad mood, so I killed a few more people that day.”
“But if you do this, it will ruin their whole plan.”
“Oh?” Lai Luo frowned and thought for a while, “It seems so… no wonder the person who gave me the money had such a bad attitude that day.”
“So you…” Su Moyi tried.
“I’ll kill him.” Lai Luo pressed his nose.
“…” Su Moyi finally knew why she got the name “madman”, because she was an out-and-out madman.
he calmed down and returned to the topic, “Then why are you approaching Lin Wanqing?”
“I want to take her away.”
Su Moyi frowned upon hearing this, her face as cold as ice, “Why?”
Lai Luo seemed to have come to his senses at this time, and he put on a “refuse to cooperate” attitude toward Su Moyi and said, “Because you are just like your bastard uncle, unkind and unjust, unable to protect her, and still want to keep people by your side.”
Mr. Su, who was unexpectedly labeled as a “heartless man”, looked very unhappy. He was so angry that he even forgot his words of defense.
However, he connected the entire line of Lai Luo’s approach to Lin Wanqing.
Judging from her tone, she should be Xiao Liangdi’s old friend.After Xiao Liangdi died, she held a grudge against Emperor Yonghui. By chance, she was trained as a killer by King Liang and joined him in his “rebellion” cause.
But she is a lunatic who is not controlled by others and does whatever she wants. Because of Wang Hu’s incident, she broke up with the King of Liang.In addition, she must have recognized Lin Wanqing in the prison, so she followed him all the way, hoping to take her away from the “royal family” she distrusted the most.
Killing Song Zhengxing was not done for Prince Liang, he just wanted Lin Wanqing to leave with her.
However, knowing that Lai Luo had no ill intentions towards Lin Wanqing, Su Moyi finally breathed a sigh of relief and softened his attitude in asking questions.
He turned on the light beside him and said with a solemn expression: “Who do you think did what happened today?”
“Who?” Lai Luo was surprised, as if he heard a joke, “The Jinwu Guards under the Nanya Forbidden Army have been dispatched. Who else is there besides your bastard uncle?”
“The emperor doesn’t know about this.” Su Mo recalled: “Besides, Xia Huan also said that he received a secret report. This secret report can be given by anyone.”
Lai Luo curled his lips, doubtful, “Then the identity of the assassin can’t be denied, right?”
“Assassin?” Su Moyi was shocked when he heard the words, and his expression became more serious. “Do you know the people inside?”
Lai Luo nodded, “One of the people inside is a secret guard I met when I saw the girl on the street that night.”
“You mean…” Liang Weiping stammered: “Second Young Master Chen’s secret guard?”
“Well,” Lai Luo snorted, “He was masked at the time, and I have never seen his face, but I can’t mistake his figure and martial arts.”
The fire in the room flickered and exploded with sparks.
No one spoke anymore, and the atmosphere became quiet for a while.
Chen family…
Chen Yan controls the Nanya Forbidden Army. If he gives an order, it will be easy for Xia Huan to lead the Jinwu Guards to arrest people.
But why did the Chen family want Lin Wanqing to die?
If I remember correctly, they have nothing to do with the Xiao family’s rebellion thirteen years ago.
Since we were able to live alone before, why do they want to lie in this muddy water now?
Unless…
There was a ringing in the ears, and Su Moyi’s pupils trembled, as if he suddenly remembered something.
The Chen family is the queen’s maternal family. At that time, the Xiao family was defeated and Xiao Liangdi fell out of favor. The Chen family was one of the direct beneficiaries.
Not only Chen Liangdi was promoted to the crown prince, Chen Yan also took over Xiao Jingyan’s position as the lieutenant general of the Jinwu Guard. The Chen family was in the limelight for a while.
So… is it possible?
Su Moyi’s heart trembled, and Su Moyi broke out in a thin sweat at the inference she made.
He immediately stood up, flipping up his robe and was about to rush out, but was stopped by Lai Luo.
“So,” she asked, her blue eyes gleaming with cold light and her tone cold, “do you believe that the Xiao family is innocent?”
Su Moyi was startled and said nothing.
Lai Luo didn’t wait for he to answer, and asked again, “Can you protect the girl?”
She was reluctant, holding the piece of white porcelain in her hand, almost bleeding.
Lai Luo supported himself to stand up, walked to him and stared at her: “If you can’t protect her, what she goes through tonight will be the rest of her life. Once her identity is exposed, what awaits her is a lifeless situation. If this is the case, you will hand her over to me. There is no room for her here. I will accompany her to a better place.”
Under the dim candlelight, there was finally a bit of softness in those cold blue eyes.
Su Moyi was stunned, because he had almost forgotten that she was a person who lived in the world with the name of “the guilty daughter”.
In the past ten years or so, she has waded across rivers and walked on thin ice. Living for her has been a life-threatening hardship.
There was a bitter pain in his throat, and he felt as if he had been fed a knife by Lai Luo.The sharp blade slid down, and blood dripped from his throat to his heart.
He suddenly remembered that a long time ago, she asked him, “Which is a more serious mistake, killing a good person by mistake or letting a bad person go?”
He said it was a mistake to misplace the bad guys.
He also thought of the time in Hongzhou, because of Lailuo, he blamed her for being emotional and should not have too much empathy for the “suspect”.
Therefore, for her, he has always been the minister of Dali Temple who was personally granted the title by the imperial court, and then the person she can entrust to her body and mind for the rest of her life.
The clouds dispersed, revealing a dawn.
He looked at Lai Luo and said firmly: “I not only want to protect her, I also want to give her the freedom that you can’t give her. I want her to no longer have to hide and remain anonymous. I want her to fulfill her promise and become my crown prince in a dignified manner.”
