Wei Yi hurried back to Bianjing Mansion and saw Wang Xu, the wife of the head of the Ministry of Officials, who reported the case. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Wang Xu cried and cried, and after talking about nearly a cup of tea, Wei Yi had a general understanding of what had happened.

The missing person is Wang Yaxin, the eldest daughter of Wang Gang, the head of the ministry. Around Shenshi yesterday afternoon, Wang Yaxin received an invitation from Shao Yunru, the daughter of Shao Mansion, inviting her to go to Jinlan Pavilion for a gathering at seven o'clock in the evening. Wang Yaxin received the invitation, she was very happy, and said to Wang Xu's family that she and her sisters had not seen each other for a long time, and planned to have a long talk and not return all night, so that the people in the palace should not wait for her. Because Wang Yaxin had also spent the night in Jinlan Pavilion in Shao Mansion before, Wang Xu didn't say much.

At breakfast today, she saw that Wang Yaxin had not returned, so she sent a girl to Shao Mansion to inquire, who knows, Shao Mansion's humane Yaxin left Shao Mansion at about nine o'clock in the evening last night (note: nine o'clock in the evening). Wang Xu was shocked and hurriedly came to Bianjing Mansion to report the case.

Wei Yi looked at the hour, noon (note: eleven o'clock in the morning), if Wang Yaxin did leave Shao Mansion around midnight last night, he would have been missing for seven hours.

He asked, "Mrs. Wang went to Shao Mansion to ask for help, but did she go to other places to look for it?" ”

Wang Xu said, "I also sent the girl to a nearby relative's house and a friend who knew Yaxin well, but there was no one." ”

Wei Yi thought for a while and said, "Ling Yuan is over sixteen years old, and it is said that she is already of marriageable age, can Mrs. arrange family affairs for Ling Yuan?" ”

Wang Xu waved his hand again and again, "Lord Wei, these words are going to ruin the reputation of Yaxin." Yaxin has not yet left the cabinet, she is a well-behaved and sensible woman, and she will never mess with a man all night. ”

Wei Yi comforted her and said, "Madame, don't be sensitive, the official just asks according to the routine and excludes them one by one, and there is no conclusion, Madame just needs to tell the truth." ”

Only then did Wang Xu settle down and said, "Yaxin turned sixteen at the beginning of this year, and the old body and her father have done a lot for her. However, every time we met, she always didn't speak, hanging her head and picking her fingers. She is like this, the man naturally feels bored, and there will be no follow-up. The old body said that she had said it a few times, and she promised it well at the time, saying that she would definitely change next time, but who knows, next time, she will still be the same. Oh, Yaxin, this kid is good at everything, but he is timid, very small, and he doesn't even dare to talk loudly to people on weekdays. She is so shy, she can't imagine how to get along with men. Therefore, Master Wei can rule out that her disappearance must have nothing to do with the man. ”

Wei Yi nodded, and said, "Has Ling Yuan had any grudges with anyone recently?" ”

Wang Xu said, "No." She is unsociable and never conflicts with people. From childhood to adulthood, only Shao Yunru, the daughter of Shao Mansion, He Xurong, the second daughter of He Xuejiao, and Shi Yongyi of the Shi family, three sworn sisters with foreign surnames. If I hadn't known that it was an invitation from Shao Mansion yesterday, I wouldn't have let Yaxin go, Yaxin must have been kidnapped by bad people......"

Wang Xu said, worried, and cried bitterly again.

Wei Yi saw that Wang Xu's mood was unstable, and he knew that he couldn't ask any clues.

He thought for a moment and said, "Madam, this case has been accepted by the official, and Ling Yuan will definitely be found as soon as possible." The case is still inconclusive, and it may not be kidnapping for ransom, but if the lady receives any letter or message, she must not act rashly and must send someone to inform the official. In addition, the official also needs to ask the maid who waits for Ling Yuan on weekdays, and ask the lady to pass it on on his behalf. ”

Wang Xu agreed, and was helped by his subordinates to leave.

Wei Yi summoned the officials and planned to go to Shao Mansion for a trip, but unexpectedly, Shao Yangli and Shao Yunru brothers and sisters, as well as He Xurong, the daughter of He Mansion, and Duan Shi, the aunt of the Shi family, waited outside the palace for a long time.

As soon as the few people met, Shao Yunru pounced.

"Brother Yi, Yaxin is gone, and Sister Shi is also ......"

Shao Yunru's face was pale and panicked.

"Yunru, this is Bianjing Mansion, you must not be rude."

Shao Yangli, who came next, shouted.

Shao Yunru woke up like a dream, gave a salute dignifiedly, and said sadly, "Lord Wei, Yaxin and Sister Shi are gone. ”

******

Wei Yi frowned.

In an instant, one missing person turned into two missing? Was it an accident or a deliberate one? Is it kidnapping for ransom or is there something else going on? Is it two cases or one? Is there anything to do with the disappearance of Wang Shi and the others?

Swept the four people in front of him and asked Shao Yunru.

"Yunru, you tell me in detail what happened last night, remember, don't miss any details." He was right.

Shao Yunru nodded, got a plastic surgery, and said, "As soon as I returned to the mansion yesterday, I couldn't wait to write three invitations to invite Sister Shi, Yaxin and Xu Rong to come to Jinlan Pavilion for a gathering." When it was time to arrive, Xu Rong arrived first. After about a cup of tea, Sister Shi also arrived. The three of us chatted and waited until it was nearly eight o'clock in the evening, when Yaxin arrived. After more than a month, our four sisters reunited again, and I was both happy and emotional in my heart, and I wanted to talk until dawn, but I didn't expect ......"

Speaking of this, Shao Yunru glanced at the Duan family on the side and said, "When it comes to talking, Sister Shi leaves first." After Sister Shi left, Xu Rong couldn't sit still, and the second one left, followed by Yaxin. When Yaxin left, I remember that I deliberately looked at the time, it was two minutes past the hour (note: half past nine in the evening). I was depressed, and I didn't expect the reunion of my sisters, who had planned well, to break up unhappily. Around midnight this morning, Yaxin's mother came to Shao Mansion to ask for someone, and I knew that Yaxin was gone. I was shocked, and hurriedly went to find Xu Rong, and went to find Sister Shi with Xu Rong. Who knows, Sister Shi of the Shi family didn't come back last night......"

It seems that there is no doubt that Wang Shi and the others disappeared after leaving Jinlan Pavilion.

He thought to himself.

"Has the historian ever received any blackmail letters or messages?" He asked Xiang Duan.

Duan is an old woman with gray hair and a hoarse voice.

"Nope." She replied.

"It wasn't until around noon that Miss Shao and Miss He found the house that the women knew that Yongyi was missing." She had apparently cried too.

Wei Yi frowned.

"Why?"

Wang Yaxin disappeared, Wang Xu's family found out early in the morning, why did Shi Yongyi, who is also a big family, disappear, and Duan's didn't know until noon?

Duan's face was embarrassed and he hung his head and was silent.

"The negligence of the women is the negligence of the women." She blamed herself.

What does negligence mean?

He was about to ask again, but Shao Yangli suddenly coughed dryly and glanced at him.

Wei Yi knew something was wrong and didn't ask.

"Ling Yuan left the house yesterday, is there anything unusual?" He changed the question.

Duan said, "No. Around 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Yongyi received an invitation from Shao Fu, so she went into the room to pick up, and the woman asked her if she needed to go after dinner, and she said no. Later, the woman went to the back kitchen, and when she came back, Yongyi had already left at about six o'clock in the afternoon. ”

Wei Yi pondered for a moment, and explained the words he had just explained to Wang Xu's to the Duan family again, and the Duan family agreed to retreat one by one.

"Now, you can tell the truth."

He raised his eyes to the trio in front of him. (To be continued.) )
