278. Chapter 278 Before leaving, the Queen specifically mentioned Wu
Mo Liuxi's words made Qiu Yin's back suddenly stiffen, and the eyes facing away from Mo Liuxi were filled with a layer of coldness and hatred.
Under the cuffs, he clenched his fists, and it took him a while to calm down.
His thin lips moved coldly, but he didn't turn around or reply, and just left without saying a word.
In the mysterious and luxurious compound in Hejin County, the magistrate Liang Kun hurriedly followed a servant into the tree-lined courtyard.
The gentle breeze brings endless coolness and comfort.
"Master, Magistrate Liang is here."
"Um."
The old man was still lying lazily on the deck chair, basking in the sun. After the others got off, he slowly opened his eyes.
"Do you have a problem with me?"
"Sir, the Queen has come to the county government office."
Liang Kun moved closer to the old man and lowered his voice.
"What a fuss!"
The old man glanced sideways at Liang Kun from the corner of his eyes, and said lazily: "She is the queen. This case in Hejin County is under your control. Why is it so strange that she comes to you?"
The old man made a snorting sound, raised his eyes lazily, and glanced at Liang Kun.
But Liang Kun didn't seem to think as simply as the old man thought. After hearing what he said, he approached him again and said:
"But, before the Queen left, she specifically mentioned Wuxin Pavilion."
"oh?"
The old man's originally squinted eyes suddenly opened and he turned to look at Liang Kun.
Just listen to Liang Kun continue: "Although the queen only said to go to Wuxin Pavilion for tea at that time, she suddenly mentioned it to the official under such circumstances, which still made the official not dare to let down his guard."
When he said this, the old man fell into deep thought.
Seeing him squinting his eyes and remaining silent for a long time, Liang Kun became a little impatient.
"Old man, what are we going to do next? The queen came to Hejin County in person and brought the emperor's golden medal with her. If she really finds out something, we will be in big trouble."
Compared with Liang Kun's anxiety, the old man seemed much calmer.
Hearing what he said, a disdainful snort came from the tip of his nose.
"What are you afraid of? If that little girl really finds out something, do you think I will give her a chance to use that gold medal?"
The tone of his speech still seemed lazy, but his words inadvertently revealed a bit of ferocity.
When Liang Kun heard what he said, he immediately understood. There was a bit of murderous intent in his cunning pupils.
"What the old man means is..."
As he spoke, he made a murderous gesture towards his neck.
The old man did not respond, but narrowed his eyes again and said: "There is no rush in this matter. You go back first. Don't alert the queen before she finds out anything substantial."
"Yes, then I will resign first."
"Go down."
Liang Kun came out of the house, glanced around furtively again, and then left quietly.
On the other side, Mo Liuxi had also completed the task assigned to him by Shangguan Yu and returned to the inn where they were.
"How's the investigation going?"
"Mother, my subordinates followed your instructions to keep an eye on Liang Kun. Sure enough, he left the Yamen early this morning. However, when I followed him to the corner halfway, I could no longer find Liang Kun."
