Yu'er hugged Shen Shu and entered the yamen, only to see a brick Xiao wall standing firmly in front of it, carving a picture of an unknown monster. The monster's eyes were round, its feet were in the air, and it was just about to swallow the sun above its head, and it looked terrifying, and she couldn't help but tremble in her heart. She never thought she would set foot in this important place. Although he came with Miss now, he still felt a little cringe when he saw this high wall.

But seeing that the young lady was moving forward slowly, her steps were steady, and she didn't think about anything else. Seeing this, Yu'er straightened up. The two of them went around the Xiao Wall, entered the corner gate, passed through the main hall, and then turned left and entered the Flower Hall.

This flower hall is huge, and in the middle sits a man wearing a black gauze hat and an official uniform.

There was a person standing next to Governor Zhang, talking to him. The man was wearing a fast hunting suit, and judging by his age, he was much older than Cheng Lan.

Hearing someone come in, both of them in the hall stopped talking and looked straight over this way.

When they could see Shen Shu's appearance clearly, both of them were stunned.

Yang Zhutou was very surprised, the blind girl that Cheng Lan said was so beautiful.

And Governor Zhang had heard Zhang Yunyong say that Shen Shu was extremely beautiful, and he was prepared in his heart, but when he really saw it, he was still surprised.

If it weren't for blindness, this woman's appearance would be captivating.

"Lord Prefect, Shen Shu brought it, and her maid Yu'er also followed." The officer said.

Governor Zhang and Yang Zhutou came back to their senses at this time, and Governor Zhang coughed and said, "Since it is a personal maid, it doesn't hurt to come along." ”

Shen Shu and Yu'er both saluted and said, "I've seen the prefect." ”

Governor Zhang nodded, and only said, "It's hard work, please take a seat." ”

The official led Shen Shu and Yu'er to sit down on the chair on the left, and then exited the door.

Yang Zhutou sat down on the chair on the right.

Governor Zhang cleared his throat and said, "Miss Shen, I don't know who you are?" What do you have to do when you come to my house? ”

Shen Shu replied: "Lord Prefect, my home is in a neighboring county. Because of changes in my family, I came to live in your house temporarily. ”

Shen Shu replied vaguely, and Governor Zhang knew that she didn't want to say too clearly, this time he had something to help, and he was not a prisoner, so it was inconvenient for him to ask, so he gave up.

Governor Zhang then asked, "Do you know why you are invited to come this time?" ”

Shen Shu shook her head and said, "I don't know, when Cheng Lan told me yesterday, he only said that the prefect wanted to see me, but he didn't say what it was. ”

It turned out that Cheng Lan hadn't said it yet, Governor Zhang smiled slightly, but didn't immediately say the matter, but asked: "I heard Cheng Lan say that you have some methods in tracking down the case, and you can help the government investigate the case?" He said that she had a very method, and made it clear that she still didn't believe what Zhang Yunyong said about predicting the future, and only thought that she had some way to get the news, or that she was just guessing the result based on what news.

Shen Shu didn't care, and only said, "I just have some strengths in getting clues." If Governor Zhang has any needs to investigate the case, just tell me, and I will do my best. ”

Governor Zhang paused, and then said: "But this hundred taels of silver is a clue, isn't it too expensive?" ”

Shen Shu said: "Because of the changes in the family, I need silver now; In addition, to obtain clues, it is also necessary to pay for yourself. After thinking about it in this way, one hundred taels of silver was set. However, I also believe that for the yamen, if it is an extremely useful clue, it should not be too difficult to pay a hundred taels of silver. ”

"This is natural." Governor Zhang laughed a few times, thinking that this woman was really sharp when she spoke, and he was embarrassed to say anything expensive when she said this. "If the clues are useful, a hundred taels of silver, the yamen will naturally be able to get it."

Shen Shu nodded and said, "Okay, of course, if the yamen really thinks that the clues are useless, it doesn't hurt if you don't pay the silver taels." ”

I really don't know if this woman is too confident in herself or too little in the yamen.

They're not bad people.

Governor Zhang's face sank slightly.

Shen Shu couldn't see Governor Zhang's face, but Yu'er saw it, her heart tightened, and she hurriedly pulled Miss Zhang's clothes.

Isn't it offensive for the young lady to say this?

Shen Shu stood peacefully and didn't pay any attention to Yu'er's small action.

Governor Zhang's face changed color, but it only took a moment before he recovered.

He laughed twice, and then said, "Miss Shen is really good at joking. After that, he looked at Yang Zhutou and said, "You can tell Miss Shen about the case this time." ”。

Yang Zhutou got up and promised, and then told Shen Shu in detail about the case of the disappearance of Liu Envoy Si's daughter.

Shen Shu listened and did not interject.

After finishing speaking, Yang Zhutou saw Shen Shu's stunned face, so he asked, "Miss Shen, do you have any speculations or clues about this case?" ”

Shen Shu didn't answer, still just stunned.

Pictures of glittering light gradually appeared in my mind

What is this?

The red walls and green tiles, the branches on the powder, the glass is shining, and the copper bells are jingling.

The misty air slowly diffused, covering up the winding path of sheep's intestines, straight into the distance.

The figure of a girl in green appeared in the mist, she lowered her head and stood silently, only to raise her head again after a while......

"Miss Shen." Yang Zhutou shouted loudly again.

Shen Shu seemed to suddenly notice and raised her head.

"Miss Shen can speculate about the case?" Yang Zhutou asked again.

Shen Shu was silent for a while before he spoke: "According to Yang Zhutou, there was also a maid who was with Liu Yuan at that time?" ”

"Not bad." Yang Zhutou nodded and said: "Liu Envoy said that in addition to Liu Yuan, there were two palanquin drivers and a maid who went with him at that time, but these four people were all missing on the way to Shuying Temple. ”

"How do you know if you're missing on the way to Shuying Temple?"

Because I asked everyone in the temple, they all said that they had never seen the sedan chair in Liu's family arrive in the temple. And when he went out of the city, the guard at the gate saw it, didn't he disappear on the way? Yang Zhutou said.

"Can the people in the temple lie?" Shen Shu said slowly.

"How could it be ......" Yang Zhutou was extremely puzzled, why did the people in the temple lie, and besides, in addition to the monks, the stall owners who sold snacks outside the temple also asked, and they all said that they hadn't seen it.

"I don't know why." Shen Shu said.

"What?" Yang Zhutou was even more puzzled, what is this talking about?

"Because of that maid, it is in that temple."
