Chapter 299: Clues

Ten days later, the township examination will begin.

The day before, Lu Qingrong was planning to go to Yin's Mansion in Muxi Hutong to wish Yin Zihao a good luck, although he didn't feel that he had much hope, but this blessing was sincere.

Early in the morning, when Lu Qingrong was dressing up, Jiang Xuan returned to the inner room from the study early and changed his clothes.

I saw that he was wearing a moon-white Hangzhou silk straight jacket, an indigo blue inlaid white jade belt around his waist, and a green jade crown on his head.

Lu Qingrong was stunned for a while before he was pulled back to reality by his smile.

"You're going out too?" Lu Qingrong asked casually.

"I'll go with you to my uncle's house." Jiang Xuan said as a matter of course: "I haven't been out of the house these days, so I just took the opportunity to walk around, and on the way back from Yin's mansion, I can still walk around the street, speaking of which, we have never been on the street together." ”

Lu Qingrong secretly said in her heart, not only did she not go on the street with Jiang Xuan, she didn't go on the street much at all......

In the past few years since she returned to the capital, she has been to only a handful of places.

The last time I sneaked out with green bamboo and went to the teahouse to watch Jiang Xuan's triumph, it was one of the few times.

At this moment, when I heard that Jiang Xuan was going to take her to the street, my heart was suddenly very excited.

Lu Qingrong first took off the red gold and gem-encrusted tassel hairpin on his head, and then took off a few red magnolia bead flowers together, and replaced them with a set of red and silver emerald-dotted heads, before nodding with satisfaction to himself in the mirror.

Jiang Xuan watched her change into a lotus lotus pigmented dress, knowing that she didn't want to be too public, but this rather plain dress was even more refined.

Jiang Xuan just smiled and didn't speak.

And when the two arrived at the Yin Mansion in Muxi Hutong. After a warm relationship with Yin Qinghua and the Gu family, when Lu Qingrong was dragged by Lu Qianyu to be alone, Lu Qianyu couldn't hold back.

"Why are you dressed like this?" Lu Qianyu looked her up and down exaggeratedly.

"I'm going to go around the streets with the prince in a while." Lu Qingrong didn't hide it.

"Go to the street...... Turning? Lu Qianyu's eyes widened, "You guys are too much, have you taken into account the feelings of people like us who are locked up!" ”

"Obviously, only my cousin was locked up to study, when were you also locked up?" Lu Qingrong couldn't cry or laugh.

"That's not the same, what's the point of playing by yourself!" Lu Qianyu first frowned. But he laughed instantly. "Fortunately, the township exam will start tomorrow, and whether it is dead or alive has been decided, and the rest of the days will be better!"

"It's just a township test. Where can you say such an exaggeration! Lu Qingrong didn't know what to say.

"Not exaggerating?" Lu Qianyu wrinkled her eyebrows and made a surprised look, "Just by virtue of your posture of mobilizing the people, even the prince will follow you personally." It was enough to flatter my father and mother. ”

When she said this, Lu Qingrong also found out. The expressions of my uncle and aunt just now didn't seem to be as natural as before......

Lu Qianyu interrupted her thoughts and asked bluntly, "You didn't send your cousin the four treasures of the study or something, did you?" ”

Lu Qingrong shook her head, what she sent was an evergreen jade pendant for all seasons. It's also to ask for a good intention.

Seeing this, Lu Qianyu let out a sigh of relief, patted his chest and said, "It's okay." OK! You don't know, it only started when my cousin went to the show last time. I don't know how many ink, paper, and inkstones we've received, and we don't use them much......"

She was very realistic, and after speaking, she scratched her head quite embarrassedly.

Lu Qingrong was smiling, and the maid lotus leaf walked into the inner room from the outside.

"The prince asked people to come over and spread the word, saying that he has some temporary matters, and he has to take the first step to let Mrs. Shizi feel at ease as a guest in our house."

Lu Qingrong was inevitably a little strange, in the morning he also took the initiative to mention that he wanted to go to the street together, why did he leave suddenly, could it be that there was something urgent?

Lu Qianyu had already opened her mouth and asked, "But someone came to our house to find the prince?" ”

"It was someone from Master Di's side who invited me." Lotus replied truthfully.

Lu Qianyu and Lu Qingrong's first reaction was that they thought it was Lu Fangyu's husband Jun Diqian, and they couldn't think of anything urgent for him to find Jiang Xuan......

In fact, this time they all thought about it.

It was not Di Qian who came to Yin's Mansion to invite Jiang Xuan away, but his father, who was the waiter of the Criminal Department at the time, and was recently replacing the Criminal Department Shangshu who had been demoted to six levels in a row to take charge of the Criminal Department.

Early this morning, the few people sent out by the Criminal Department to search for those people had another harvest in Wanping County.

A headless male corpse was found next to a canal in the county.

On its body, there are objects that mark the words of the Marquis of Chengping.

Lord Lang Di, the servant of the Criminal Department, immediately sent someone to invite Jiang Xuan, and the words of asking for advice were extremely flickering, and he only asked if he knew this person.

Jiang Xuan reacted almost instantly, he wanted to ask himself if this corpse was Sato's, but it was difficult to say.

After all, Sato escaped with the cooperation of Song Shixiang of the Chengping Marquis Mansion, which is almost a foregone conclusion, and when he saw the logo of the Chengping Marquis Mansion at this moment, the first thing that naturally came to mind was Sato.

And Jiang Xuan had fought with him on the battlefield, and personally escorted him back to Beijing from Mobei, obviously the person who was most familiar with Sato.

Jiang Xuan was not ambiguous, and when he arrived at the dark room where the corpse was parked, he immediately stepped forward, ignoring the bloody corpse, and checked it very intently.

But in an instant, I saw him suddenly raise his head, turn around and walk back to Master Di who came in with him.

"I don't know this person." Jiang Xuan opened his mouth categorically, and added inadequately, "Moreover, it's definitely not Sato." ”

Although he has a general relationship with Master Di, and he doesn't have much contact on weekdays, so it is difficult to talk deeply, but at this time, his words are clear and appropriate.

When Master Di heard this, the look on his face could not be said to be regret or self-blame.

First expressed his gratitude to Jiang Xuan, and personally sent him out of the Criminal Department respectfully, and Master Di returned again.

Staring at the bloody corpse from afar, Master Di was silent for a long time, and finally ordered: "Let the people from the Chengping Marquis Mansion also come to recognize it!" ”

In fact, he also understood in his heart that this was obviously more likely to be Song Shixiang, and the reason why he invited Jiang Xuan was because he had a trace of thought in his heart, hoping to find the real Sato......

However, the Criminal Department sent someone to the Chengping Marquis Mansion, but they couldn't wait for someone to identify the body for a long time.

Neither the Marquis of Chengping nor the prince of the world were willing to get involved in this matter, and they didn't even let the rest of the people in the mansion know.

After delaying for several days, when He Qingwan learned the news, he immediately volunteered to go to the criminal department regardless of his physical condition of having a miscarriage of less than a month. (To be continued) R580
