2248 Chapter 2248-discovery

Gu Xin asked the Yun family to send someone to call Xiao Shunzi over.

Zheng Qiu had already helped third miss Feng put on her clothes, so there was no need to avoid her.

After Xiao Shunzi arrived, he was just as scared as Ying ‘er. However, he was a man after all, so he did not tremble. He just did not know why Gu Xin had called him over.

Gu Xin then asked about the pastries. Xiao Shunzi admitted that he had met que ‘er outside the kitchen and que’ er had indeed given him two pieces. However, he only ate one piece and left one for Butler li.

Gu Xin’s mouth twitched. How good was Ying ‘er’s cooking? the Feng family didn’t look like a family that couldn’t afford to eat desserts, yet a Butler with a guard actually asked someone to leave a piece for her.

“Princess, I found something.” At this moment, a man from the Yamen ran in hurriedly and said at the door.

“What?” Gu Xin looked over.

“Guard Bai led us to the forest on the west side of the temple. We found a piece of jewelry and some blood.” The bailiff replied.

“Let’s go!” Gu Xin called Zheng Qiu over and followed them. When they reached the door, she stopped and said, ” Lady Feng, get people to stay away from this room. Oh right, get Ying ‘er, que’ er, Xiao Shunzi, and Butler li to stay in this room. I’ll get someone to come and watch.”

Madam Yun quickly nodded.

Gu Xin and Zheng Qiu followed the bailiff all the way to the forest in the West.

When they were about to reach the forest, Gu Xin looked at the sky. It was already past noon and they were planning to return to the city this morning. They planned to have breakfast when they arrived, so they had not eaten anything yet.

Gu Xin could eat a Jade bead herself, so she was not afraid of being hungry. However, she could not give it to Zheng Qiu directly. Furthermore, Zheng Qiu often did not eat according to the meal schedule, so Gu Xin’s heart ached for him.

She took out a piece of candy from her satchel. She had bought it when she was shopping in the prefecture city of tai Zhou. She handed it to Zheng Qiu and said,”Eat a candy to maintain your strength. Let’s go and have a look, then we’ll go back to the temple and have the servants prepare some food.”

Zheng Qiu was thinking about the case and could not react in time. He looked at Gu Xin in a daze.

Gu Xin removed the wrapper and took out a Jade bead. She then asked Zheng Qiu to open his mouth.

Zheng Qiu opened her mouth and Gu Xin fed her directly.

Zheng Qiu was speechless.

A sweet taste melted in her mouth, and Zheng Qiu woke up instantly. She smiled and said, ” “It’s so sweet. Thank you, Xinxin.”

Gu Xin ate one for herself and put her arm around Zheng Qiu’s shoulder, ” “The last time I fed a little girl like this was when I was 10 years old!”

“Let’s go and see the clues. Everyone must be tired and hungry. Let’s have something to eat after we get back to the temple. Only when your stomach is full will you have the strength to work.” Gu Xin held onto Zheng Qiu and walked into the forest.

At this moment, Bai Yi had already asked the bailiffs to surround the area and was waiting for Gu Xin’s arrival.

When he saw the two of them, white shirt came forward with something and showed it to them. “This should be the victim’s jewelry.”

Zheng Qiu nodded. that’s right. I only found one on the victim’s ear. This one is the same as the other one.

Gu Xin looked at the place that was surrounded, ” “That is to say, this is the first crime scene. The blood on the ground should belong to the deceased.”

The constable of the government of Thailand walked over, ” “I, Chen Pengyuan, have seen Princess Xinxin before. I don’t think all the blood on the ground belongs to the dead.”
