"Tell me, what's the matter?" Miss Hua said angrily. Peace and joy and their masters are two extremes, but they are more down-to-earth than their masters.

Ping An Joy didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly said the intention, Hua Jingyao called Shi Yi and said, "Go and call Ye Xing, you take him to the Yongguo Mansion together." ”

Ping'an is happy and surprised and delighted, Miss Huada is really easy to talk to.

Ye Xing is the guard of the Eldest Princess's Mansion. Ye Xing's father is a painter, but whenever the yamen wants to arrest the criminal, he will call him to paint a portrait, his portrait is vivid, the yamen has solved many big cases, but he also caused trouble, a prisoner escaped from prison and took revenge on his head, killing him and his wife, Ye Xing went to the school to escape. Ye Xing followed his father to learn painting skills since he was a child, and the yamen wanted his son to inherit his father's business, but Ye Xing declined, and since then he has given up literature and martial arts, and when he grows up, he went to take the martial arts test.

It wasn't until late in the evening that Hua Jingyao was ready to go home, and Shi Yi and Ye Xing hurried back.

"Why did you go for so long?" Hua Jingyao asked.

Ye Xing said to Hua Jingyao: "Shen Sigongzi asked the little one to draw seven portraits. ”

"Seven? So much? Hua Jingyao asked curiously, "Do you remember those seven portraits?" Can you redraw it? ”

"The little one hasn't forgotten it yet, I'll draw it tonight, it's just ......" Ye Xing hesitated a little.

"Just what?" Hua Jingyao asked.

"It's just the person who describes the appearance of the person in the painting to the little one, and the little one has painted it before." Ye Xing said.

"Painted?" A flash of inspiration flashed in Hua Jingyao's brain, and she remembered, "Is it when Shen Feng died?" ”

"Yes, the girl has a really good memory, that's that time, the little one won't admit it, it's this person." Ye Xing said affirmatively.

Hua Jingyao smiled, it turned out to be Zhu Lu.

Shen Xiao really defended Zhu Lu, was this looking for witnesses for Zhu Lu?

Yesterday, the person died outside the porridge shed of the eldest princess's mansion, and everyone present at the time believed that the person was supported to death, but Hua Jingyao did not think so, there may be people in this world who drank porridge and died of it, but they did not happen to die in her porridge shed.

She immediately asked A, B, C, and D to investigate, but nothing was found.

This person seems to be a beggar, but many flower leaders in the capital all said that they didn't know this person, and it should not be a special beggar, but a homeless person from elsewhere.

In the past two years, the wind and rain have been smooth, and there are not many displaced people in the capital, and Shuntianfu has also built a private camp outside the Zenyin Temple for these people to live temporarily.

A, B, C, and Ding went to the private camp, and asked many people about the portrait of the deceased, and finally there was a little monk from the Zenyin Temple, saying that he had seen the deceased.

The monks of Zenyin Temple assisted Shuntianfu to register these displaced people, the registered name of the deceased was Zuo Abao, twenty-four years old, Chaigoubao, both parents died, last year the family went to the water, burned all the real estate and savings, he will burn charcoal, but the charcoal factory in Chaigoubao is government-run, and the prisoners who are also distributed here, in desperation, he had to come to the capital, thinking that there are many rich people in the capital, maybe he can make a lot of money.

The homeless people who live in the private sector are almost all like this, either because they are walking in the water at home, or they have been robbed of their property by relatives, and they are all in their hometown and can't get along, so they came to the capital.

The people sent by Shuntianfu did not believe in these reasons, but it was impossible to go to their hometowns to verify them one by one, so they had to let them live here temporarily.

The reason why the little monk has an image of Zuo Abao is because Zuo Abao had come to ask him for herbs two days ago.

Shuntianfu was worried that there would be a plague in the mess of the private sector, so he invited the monks who knew how to treat medicine in the temple to come and help, and every few days they would smoke the mugwort, and when they encountered sick homeless people, they would also use herbal medicine to heal.

The little monk's master is a medical monk, and occasionally someone will come to the little monk to ask for herbs.

And Zuo Abao came to the little monk to ask for crane grass.

The poor monk asked him if he had hemoptysis, or was he bleeding in the stool? He said that it was an old problem, and that it would be good if he used the crane grass, and asked the poor monk not to tell others, lest the people in the government think that he was sick and blasted him away. Seeing that he was pitiful, the poor monk went back to the temple to get the crane grass and gave it to him, and also told him the use of the crane grass. "It's been less than two days since this incident, and the little monk remembers it very clearly.

Now that the name of the deceased has been found, the rest of the matter is easier.

First of all, some people in the private sector said that Zuo Abao often went to beg outside the gambling house outside the city, and he also hung out with the gangsters, and then some people said that two days ago they saw Zuo Abao covering his heart and exhaling pain, and asked him if he was sick, and he said that he was kicked in the heart by a cripple when he was begging outside the city.

Can a cripple still kick people with his feet?

When Hua Jingyao heard these news, she immediately thought of someone, Zhu Lu!

Zhu Lu is indeed a cripple, but he is also a very powerful cripple.

At this time, Luo Cheng's corpse was also written, Zuo Abao had suffered serious internal injuries, and he was not killed by drinking porridge.

Hua Jingyao really wanted to ask Shen Xiao in person, but she also knew that Shen Xiao would never tell her the truth, so she simply did a little bad and told Yin Zhutou about Zhu Lu.

There is also Zhu Lu's wanted official document in the Shuntian Mansion, and after Yin Zhutou checked it, he decided that the cripple was this cripple, and then Miss Hua mentioned Shen Sigongzi again, so Yin Zhutou came to Shen Xiao to ask for someone.

It turned out that Miss Huada's plan went smoothly, and Shen Sigongzi also took the initiative to participate.

The next day, Ye Xing handed over the seven portraits he had drawn to Hua Jingyao, who looked at them carefully, and there was no one similar to the deceased Zuo Abao.

She frowned and said to Shi Yi: "You send two people to Chaigou Fort to check the situation of this Zuo Abao, bring Zuo Abao's portrait, and see if anyone knows him." ”

Shi Yi received the order and immediately went down to make arrangements.

Hua Jingyao said to Shi Bing: "You take these seven portraits and go to inquire, by the way, some people say that Zuo Abao often goes to the gambling house outside the city to beg, you let people go there to have a look." ”

Although the imperial court did not prohibit gambling, but the gambling house was mixed, not only the people of Shuntianfu often had nothing to do, even the criminal department and Feiyuwei often went to search, because of the search for fugitives and were involved in the closure of the gambling house is not a few, one comes and goes, there are fewer and fewer people who dare to open a gambling house in the capital, and there are more gambling houses outside the capital.

Hua Jingyao herself took Shi Jia and Shi Ding to Shuntian Mansion, she wanted to see Zuo Abao's corpse with her own eyes.

That day, she heard that someone had died in the porridge shed, and when she arrived, the dead body had already been carried to Shuntianfu.
