Capital.

Mu Qing rushed back to Beijing non-stop, and after meeting with Youbei, he went directly to Yunfu.

When Young Master Yun got the news, he was already waiting at the gate of the mansion and welcomed him to the main hall.

At this time, Young Master Yun's sad face seemed to be alleviated for many days, and he said respectfully with gratitude; "Actually, the little prince doesn't have to rush back to Beijing in a hurry, the lower officials will deal with that dirty thing."

It seems that Young Master Yun hates the person who harmed his young daughter, and he doesn't even bother to mention the name, so he directly replaces him with the title of dirty thing.

Mu Qing didn't say anything, and glanced at Youdong, who was accompanying him, who immediately took out Yu Qiukong's portrait, opened it and spread it on the table.

"Lord Yun, please see, can the person you caught be the person on the portrait?" Mu Qing finger portrait, Wen Yan said.

Master Yun only glanced at the portrait, then hated it, and gritted his teeth, "Yes, it's this person, even if he turns into ashes, he will remember him." After speaking, he asked Mu Qing puzzled, "Where did the little prince get this portrait?" ”

After Mu Qing asked the most basic question, he was sure and sure in his heart that the Xiang Niang arrested by Yunfu must be an impostor.

"May I ask Lord Yun, how did you get his whereabouts, and how did you catch him?" Mu Qing did not answer the reason for the portrait, but asked Young Master Yun instead.

"Back to the little prince, it's like this. After Ying'er's accident, Xia Guan has been sending people to secretly look for the traces of the lady in Beijing, although it is like looking for a needle in a haystack, but the emperor lives up to the painstaking people, a few days ago, finally in a house in Dongshi, found a suspicious man living alone. Young Master Yun replied respectfully.

Mu Qing didn't say much, and motioned for the former to continue.

When the men found the man, he seemed to be a little delirious, and did not answer his questions, and seeing that his behavior was suspicious, and the neighbors around him could not tell his origin, they searched his house, and found a few pearl hairpins that were missing from Ying'er, and yes, a few women's clothes. So, Xia Guan ordered the mother-in-law in the house to help him put on that women's dress, good guy, this one, you can't see that it's a man at all. Moreover, the mothers-in-law in the mansion immediately recognized him, it was Xiang Niangzi who had taught Ying's daughter to be popular in the Xiaguan Mansion a few months ago. ”

Mu Qing listened carefully to Lord Yun's narration, the authorities were confused, and the bystanders were clear, it seemed that when he caught this Xiang Niangzi, it seemed that everything was too easy and too logical, but it made people have a lot of doubts.

However, Mu Qing did not immediately express the doubts in his heart. Because, right now, Young Master Yun is relieved and happy, he is very sure that he has found the real culprit who hurt his daughter, if he does not come up with enough evidence to prove it, I am afraid he will not easily believe that the person who has been caught in thousands of searches is actually an impostor.

So, you have to take it step by step.

"Lord Yun, Xiao Wang also has some jewelry here, please ask the people in the house to recognize it, there are Miss Yun's items among them."

After the master finished speaking, Youbei opened the burden in his hand and handed it to Lord Yun.

Lord Yun immediately instructed his subordinates, "Go, take it to the inner hall and take a look at the lady." ”

In less than a quarter of an hour, the subordinate walked out with the burden again, and replied with a turquoise jade earring in his hand: "Back to the master, Mrs. said that this jade earring is Miss's, and it was lost last year." ”

Lord Yun immediately looked at Mu Qing with a questioning face, "Dare to ask the little prince, where did you get these earrings?" ”

"Alas...... It's a bizarre and complicated matter, and it's a long story! ”

Mu Qing sighed slightly, and then told the young master Tongyun in detail about all the events encountered during his trip to Shuzhou.

After hearing this, Young Master Yun was surprised to see all kinds of precious jewelry and women's clothes in the baggage in front of him, and then reacted, "What the little prince means is that the person caught by the lower official may not be the real Xiang Niangzi himself at all, that is to say, he is not the Yu Qiukong you found."

"Exactly, if Xiao Wang's guess is right, the so-called real murderer you caught should be Lin Zishu, the missing famous Dan in Zhongzhou. Not only is he beautiful, but he also looks like a woman more like a woman than a woman! And, his appearance is seven or eight points similar to Yu Qiukong? After Mu Qing finished speaking with great certainty, Youdong took out another portrait and put it on the table.

This is the portrait of Lin Zishu that Ishikawa brought back when he went to Chungju, and Mu Qing came back this time and brought it back carefully.

When Lord Yun saw that the people on the two portraits were really very similar, it was difficult to distinguish between them, and he was surprised and stunned.

Mu Qing saw Lord Yun like this, so he said again: "Come to think of it, this person's experience must be the same as that Qin Huaiyu, after he was lured away by Yu Qiukong, he trapped him in a certain place, and drugged him to dumb him, and then caused him to be delirious, and after he went crazy, he was put in that place, just waiting for you to come to investigate, and he fell into his trick." Now, Lord Yun only needs to ask a doctor to take a look at that person, and he will know the truth and falsehood. ”

In fact, what the little prince said, Lord Yun had already believed it, and his hesitation at the moment was not because he didn't believe it, but because he was shocked and afraid.

He didn't expect that the murderer would be so cruel and insidious and vicious, he had already arranged all the way back, and also found a god-like scapegoat for himself.

If there is no little prince to tell him all this in time, then this person who has been caught will not be able to distinguish himself in words, and he will not have the slightest resistance because he is unconscious.

Then, based on all kinds of perfect evidence created by the real murderer, coupled with his own unique and rare characteristics of a man disguised as a woman, but more like a woman than a woman, then he will definitely be recognized as the real murderer.

In this way, the means of Evian Mansion, he has no life.

Therefore, the more Yun Dacai thought about it, the more frightened he became, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, so he hurriedly got up and said, "Please go with the lower officials to see that person!" ”

In the dark room of the cloud house.

On a simple straw mat lay a man, his figure thin and long, and his long hair scattered haphazardly on his face, covering his delicate and fair face.

Sure enough, his appearance was so similar to Qin Huaiyu and Yu Qiukong.

Because of this, he will become the prey of Yu Qiu's empty phase.

At this moment, his eyes were glazed, and he looked at Mu Qing and them expressionlessly.

The accompanying doctor stepped forward, carefully checked his pulse, and after examining his whole body, he shook his head compassionately, "Lord Hui, his pulse is disordered, his mind is restless, and he can't speak, it should be caused by several poisons." ”

Young Master Yun was shocked when he heard this, and as the little prince said, he was even more afraid of being shocked, so he ordered his subordinates, "Send this person to the guest room immediately, treat him with courtesy, and treat him wholeheartedly and take care of him carefully." ”

Seeing that Young Master Yun had made proper and thoughtful arrangements, his face was full of sadness, and Mu Qing knew what he was worried about, so he comforted him and said, "Lord Yun, please rest assured, the murderer can't escape." Shi Zhutou has gone to Yangzhou, and I believe that good news will come back soon. ”

Hearing this, Young Master Yun's complexion eased slightly, "Yes, then the lower official will wait for the good news of the prince." ”

Only then did Mu Qing say goodbye and rush back to the palace.

Late at night, Yangzhou Mansion.

The dungeon of the government is dark and gloomy, and it does not leak.

Because the prisoners who were imprisoned were all prisoners who had been punished with heavy sentences, the walls of the cells were made of large stones, and the iron doors were locked, leaving only a small window for food delivery.

At this time, the lights in the dungeon were dim, and the prisoners in the dungeon had already fallen asleep, while the three guards were drinking wine and eating supper in the side room on duty, passing the night in a daze.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and the candle flame in the prison was extinguished a few more times, and the originally dark prison was even darker and unsettling.

One of the jailers scolded and spat, spitting saliva, "Qin Er, you go and light some candles again, this prison is dark, Lao Tzu still thinks that he has arrived in the underworld of the Yin Dynasty?" Grandma's, phew! ”

The one named Qin Er got up according to his words and went to fetch the candle flame step by step.

He turned a corner, and his body disappeared into the darkness, and he did not return for a long time.

The person who ordered him before shouted loudly again: "Qin Er, you are going to die!" If I asked you to fetch a candle, would you still have to go to the west to get it? I haven't come back for a long time, and it's strange that I don't clean you up when I see that I come back."

However, after waiting for a while, it was still silent, and the jailer was anxious, and shouted again: "Ding Shan, you go and get him back, Lao Tzu is here in the dark, he is fine, he must have gone to sleep in hiding again." ”

Yi Yan, whose name is Ding San, also got up and went, but the strange thing is that this Ding San went and didn't come back for a long time.

At this moment, the rest of the people were on fire, relying on the strength of the wine, they jumped up, and rushed to the door, shouting as they rushed, "You two are going to die, what about the night?" I also dared to let Lao Tzu go to sleep, and see if Lao Tzu didn't ......" just listened to his voice before he finished speaking, but people were suddenly frozen by something, and they didn't move......

Then, floating in a dark shadow, nay, a man wrapped in a black cloak, revealing only a pair of dark and bright eyes, floated past the jailer's head, and looked at him with disgust, suspecting that he was in the way, so he swept the jailer's head into the corner with a light stroke of his hand.

At this time, in the small window of the innermost dark cell, a pair of eyes witnessed all this from beginning to end, he silently got up from the straw mat, tall, but probably because of the long-term exposure to the dungeon, his body was thin, his hair was messy, his clothes were tattered, his facial features were peaceful and Zhouzheng, and he was looking at the man in black with blazing eyes at the moment.

The black-clothed man's eyes shone faintly, and after scanning the dungeon for a while, he walked towards the cell of the person who was looking at him without hesitation.

When he arrived at the locked door, he took out the key he had just taken from the jailer's head, easily opened the heavy and sturdy door, and said in a deep voice, "Go quickly." ”

The person in the prison also had a very tacit understanding, flashed out neatly, followed closely behind the man in black, and quietly walked out of the dungeon of the mansion.

The two were silent, one after the other, and only cared about hurrying, until they reached a wood, and the leading man in black suddenly stopped and whispered: "I can be regarded as rescuing you!" ”

The rescued man kept suppressing his excitement and asked in a low tone, "Who are you?" Why risk coming to my rescue? ”

"Who am I? Don't you say you don't know me? I'm going to die of grief! The man in black sneered, raised his jade hand like a green onion, and lifted the hat on his head......
