lord and beauty

Chapter 144

Jiang Beimu's expression froze, and he immediately turned to look at Tan Qiu in a bad mood.

The smell of blood in the air was blown away by the wind, Tan Qiu stared blankly at the scene in front of him, his brain exploded with a "buzz", and all the sounds in his ears disappeared like a tide, Tan Qiu couldn't help holding his breath, dazed Looking at the two corpses in front of him, his whole body was cold.

Suddenly there was a crisp clang, the cups and plates fell to pieces, and the wine spilled all over the floor and flowed along the cracks in the wooden boards. Jiang Beimu was startled, and saw a servant standing outside the door. He didn't know if he smelled blood or something. He stood there with a look of horror on his face, and when he noticed Jiang Beimu's eyes, his whole body trembled and his face turned ashen.

Jiang Beimu frowned and said in a low voice, "Don't say anything, go to the government to invite someone, and call the people from the city lord's mansion, and the city lord's mansion will say that I, Jiang Beimu, invited him."

After Jiang Beimu said that, the boy was still on the spot, unable to react for a while, and when he saw Jiang Beimu walking towards him, he responded tremblingly, rolling and climbing to support the wall He ran away quickly, not caring about the mess.

Jiang Beimu closed the door, turned and walked towards Tan Qiu.

Tan Qiu had just been awakened by the sound of the porcelain bowl breaking, and now he turned his head to look at Jiang Beimu in a daze, obviously unable to react for a while.

Jiang Beimu sighed softly, crossed Tan Qiu, and first pulled down the curtains on both sides of the house, and the light gauze dragged the floor, separating a room into two worlds.

Tan Qiuhou began to tremble belatedly, her eyes were full of surprise and bewilderment, she looked at Jiang Beimu, and after a while she found her voice, and asked dryly, "I...he...what's going on? thing…?"

"The government and Xiao Ye will come later, just leave it to them to find out the reason." Jiang Beimu was very calm, but he still couldn't help but be surprised. He only knew that Zi Luoping must be looking for Liu Yusheng if he went out alone. For the sake of the past, but he didn't expect that Zi Luoping actually had the idea of ​​dying together.

Jiang Beimu sighed without a trace, stepped forward and hugged Tan Qiu into his arms, trying not to let him see the miserable situation on the other side, but he couldn't help feeling a little regretful in his heart.

If he is vigilant, come and take a look, maybe he can avoid this incident.

It was Tan Qiu...Jiang Beimu felt a little tricky for the first time, and Zi Luoping only met him again for a few days, and this incident must have been a very heavy blow to Tan Qiu.

Jiang Beimu stood by the table, pressed the back of Tan Qiu's head with his right hand, and pressed it against his shoulder, so as to prevent him from seeing the scene outside the gauze curtain.

Tan Qiu's body couldn't help shaking, and he let Jiang Beimu hug him blankly, as if he had lost his consciousness, and his mind went blank.

Fortunately, the matter did not delay for too long. There was a noise from the corridor outside the house, followed by chaotic footsteps from far to near. The door was suddenly pushed open, the leader entered first, and the black armored soldiers on both sides filed in. And enter, separate the two parties.

Jiang Beimu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw who was coming.

"People are inside, I haven't touched the body yet." Jiang Beimu said to Xiao Ye.

Xiao Ye also looked solemn, and nodded when he heard the words, but he didn't go in. Instead, he took a few steps forward and glanced at Tan Qiu in Jiang Beimu's arms, raising his eyebrows, as if asking something.

Jiang Beimu shook his head helplessly and sighed, showing a rare look of distress, and Xiao Ye's expression was not looking any better, the two of them had their own thoughts, and neither of them spoke.

Not long after Xiao Ye arrived, another group of sergeants crowded in from outside, and soon a middle-aged man with white face and beard came in with a gloomy expression, bowing his head slightly to greet several people in the room.

"Where's Young Master Fu?" The magistrate looked around and asked Xiao Ye.

"In the back, he needs to pack some things, I'll go first." Xiao Ye responded in a low voice.

The magistrate hummed and waved his hand, all the servants around him retreated outside the house, Xiao Ye also withdrew his own soldiers when he saw this, leaving only Jiang Beimu, Tan Qiu, Xiao Ye and the magistrate in the house for a while four people.

Without outsiders, Xiao Ye let go of his speech a lot, and asked bluntly: "What about him? Didn't you notify?"

"The cause of death hasn't been found out yet." The prefect obviously also had a headache, "How can I give an explanation for calling someone over?"

"In less than an hour, he must know that too." Xiao Ye's face was calm.

"That's for later." The magistrate waved his sleeves, "What do you know?"

Xiao Ye stood with arms folded and shrugged.

The magistrate's face was gloomy, and his tone was unavoidably stiff, "I didn't care what happened to you in the past, but now the person who died is the attendant of the court minister, if you don't explain clearly, you and I will have a hard time in the future."

Xiao Ye said helplessly: "My lord, I really don't know this time, the person is just lying in there, why don't you go and see the corpse first, what are you doing asking me here?"

"Stop arguing." Jiang Beimu was upset and interrupted in a cold voice, not wanting to hear the two continue to chatter.

Xiao Ye shut up obediently, stood aside and bowed his head slightly, leaned on the table with his back, raised his fingertips to circle the silk ribbon hanging from the hair crown, and looked sideways at the door from time to time.

The magistrate looked at Jiang Beimu strangely, and seeing that he didn't look at him, but kept comforting the person in his arms in a low voice, he managed to suppress the doubts that floated in his heart, and went inside the curtain, avoiding several people.

Fu He came late, with a large wooden box slung across his shoulders, his face was blushing, he panted and pushed open the door, obviously trotting all the way to catch up, Xiao Ye hurried forward and brought them into the curtain together Inside.

It was the first time Jiang Beimu knew that Fu He could do this, and after a simple surprise, he stopped thinking about it. Instead, he was a little distressed by Tan Qiu's reaction at this time.

If Tan Qiu cried bitterly, he still had a way, but now Tan Qiu seemed to have lost his soul, neither cried nor made trouble, and said nothing, which really made Jiang Beimu a little frightened.

Fortunately, Xiao Ye's work was fairly quick, the three of them said something inside, and when they came out, they told Jiang Beimu that they could take Zi Luoping's body back first.

Jiang Beimu didn't ask Zi Luoping and Liu Yusheng too much, nodded and borrowed two soldiers from Xiao Ye, rolled up the bedding and put Zi Luoping's body in the carriage first, and brought the distraught Tan Qiu After going downstairs and getting on the carriage, he went straight to Jiang's mansion.

It was late at night when we returned to Jiang’s Mansion. After Jiang Beimu got out of the car, he suddenly found a tall figure standing in the light under the eaves. Zhou Zhang had been waiting at the door for some time. When he saw Jiang Beimu got out of the car, he didn’t say a word. step forward.

"Give me a hand." Jiang Beimu gestured to the inside of the car, Zhou Zhang understood, opened the curtain to look in, and couldn't help but froze.

Tan Qiu was sitting in the corner of the car, holding Zi Luoping in his arms. Zi Luoping's body was wrapped in the quilt. At this moment, Tan Qiu lifted her head, and her face was livid and lifeless. The pupils were closed, which made them less ferocious and more serene.

Tan Qiu hugged Zi Luoping's gradually stiff body, and kept reaching out to wipe the coagulated blood on Zi Luoping's face. The cuffs and hands were stained with blood, making him look extremely embarrassed.

Tan Qiu's body trembled slightly, and he wiped Zi Luoping's face aimlessly, but his right hand was already stained with blood, and every time he wiped the cold skin, there were traces of blood.

"Qiu'er..." Jiang Beimu couldn't bear it, and called softly.

Tan Qiu's body trembled, and he looked up at Jiang Beimu, his eyes were red with tears, and tears fell suddenly.
