Bai Yulan glanced at it, then retreated from the crowd, and said with a smile at Qiong Ming, "It's to track down the fugitive's notice, and use a high bounty to encourage these people to look for clues." ”

Qiong Ming suddenly laughed, shrugged his shoulders, and said unconcernedly, "Although it is useful to use a high reward, it is just a delaying tactic, and I am afraid it will be very difficult to implement." ”

After all, there are a lot of fish and dragons here, and the high bounty will definitely lure out a lot of cheaters, and just sifting out the false news is enough for them to toss.

"Didn't you bring me out this time to find out the cause of the envoy's death? Got a clue now? If you don't have a clue, why not give it a try? Go to the yamen and listen to the so-called news reported by these people, otherwise it will be difficult for us to find any clues if we rely on our own investigation and do not use these foreign objects at all. Bai Yulan suggested softly.

"It makes sense." Joan nodded in agreement.

As she had guessed, the long queue gathered at the entrance of the yamen was the one who was going to go in to provide the so-called evidence and clues.

"This kind of grand occasion is really rare enough." Bai Yulan shrugged and said, "But at that time, the envoy died alone in a dark and narrow alley, how could so many people see it in such a place, and it was not a busy city." ”

However, Ling Jin arranged for her to deal with the people who dealt with the problem, but it was really effective, after getting Bai Yulan's instructions, the person who was with her went directly to the yamen, communicated with the people, and the guard let Bai Yulan in.

The main book is checking the truth of these people's confessions one by one, but because of the generous bonus, some people have indeed revealed the whereabouts of this envoy, not when they appeared in the alley.

A woman dressed in fancy clothes, wearing extraordinarily glamorous makeup, gently flung the silk handkerchief in her hand forward when it was her turn.

She covered her mouth and smiled and said, "I only saw this envoy last night, when he came to the slave family's flower building to drink, the slave family only felt that this adult was rich, and thought that he would stay for a while, but who knew that he just stayed in the flower building for an hour, and left." ”

The face of the master bookkeeper was a little ugly, and he raised his eyebrows and said sharply, "Pick up the important ones, don't waste your tongue here, we already know what you said." ”

The woman seemed to be a little dissatisfied, but after all, she didn't dare to refute, pursed her lips, and said, "When that lord came, there was a man by his side, isn't this lord the envoy of the northern frontier?" He looks five big and three thick, and at first glance he is a native of Northern Xinjiang, but the man looks like a man with fine skin and tender meat, and at a glance he is from the Central Plains. ”

"It's just that the envoy suddenly left in a hurry, and the man stayed for a while before leaving, and when I saw you checking people today, I didn't see that man, and he didn't know when he came to Hualou before, and he didn't know when he left."

Several people present were a little stunned, and when they investigated, it was indeed the envoy who went out to drink flower wine at night, in the alley

He was killed inside, but there was no mention of several other envoys going out at the same time.

Bai Yulan was also a little shocked in her heart, and when she turned her head to look at Qiong Ming, the latter also happened to turn her head to look at her.

The two looked at each other, and the suspicion in their hearts became more and more serious.

"How long has that man been with you, and has anyone else seen him?" The master asked.

"That person is very good-looking, and his appearance is also exceptionally good-looking, the slave family was quite impressed with him at the time, the slave family remembered, it was when the slave family went out to change tea, and the person who came back appeared, as for when he left later, whether anyone had seen him, the slave family was not very clear."

"Good! If we confirm that what you say is true, you can go directly to the yamen to receive the reward. The master said happily.

After the woman left, he left his position for the time being, and instructed the others, "You record it first, and I will go and verify and report it." ”

Bai Yulan looked at the figure of the master book leaving in a hurry, and was a little worried in her heart, and immediately stood aside and said to the apprentice who was recording, "Is the relationship between your master book and Jing Zhaoyin very good?" ”

The junior apprentice looked at Bai Yulan and Qiong Ming's unfamiliar faces, and the extraordinary-looking dress, and replied hesitantly, "Back to my lord, we are all small minions, and we really don't know the adult's own life. ”

Under Bai Yulan's suddenly stern gaze, he paused again and continued, "However, the relationship between the adults and the people in the official office is good. ”

Bai Yulan raised her eyes and motioned to Qiong Ming, go out first!

The girl in the flower building, she must not even know how much secret she would reveal, how could there be a young man who could not be found in the yamen, or appeared at such a time, and there was an accident that the envoy was killed that night.

There should be a connection between the two, if not necessarily related.

"The girl of Hualou, even she must not know that she is in danger, Qiong Ming, if this matter is related to that person, now she must have been designated as the next target to kill, and they may destroy the corpse." Bai Yulan said in a deep voice.

"Could it be that you think that the master book actually has the idea of assassinating this girl?" Qiong Ming raised his eyebrows and said, "He will inform the murderer?" ”

Bai Yulan shook her head and sighed, "That's not the case, I'm not worried about the main book, he may also be aware of the seriousness of the situation, the murderer didn't think of killing the only witness who had seen him at that time, presumably he didn't expect it to be temporarily omitted, and secondly, the time was urgent, and he had to hide his identity and brutally torture and kill, if that person was the real murderer." ”

"The master may have already applied to the people in the yamen to protect her." Bai Yulan took a deep breath and said.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to suddenly have a problem at that time, and even if you want to save it, it will be too late.

After Bai Yulan made up her mind, she planned to split up first, and one of them continued to stay in the yamen to watch, and went to watch how the master bookkeeper reported the matter to the above.

And the other person followed the girl in the red mansion, after all, he waited for the murder

When the hand reacts, it must kill anyone who will reveal their murderous identity.

Qiong Ming really wanted him to follow the girl in the Red Chamber at first, but Bai Yulan decisively refused, and he was no longer stubborn, after all, Bai Yulan is indeed such a stubborn character, if it is according to the current situation, it must be in the end, and there is no way to change her decision.

"If you find that there is danger at that time, you must not act alone, don't be reckless, you must remember to protect yourself first, and then come back to report the news, I will go with you to deal with the enemy again." Qiong Ming said in a deep voice.

"Okay, I got it." Bai Yulan smiled and said, "You don't have to worry, I haven't been strong enough yet, I've always been greedy for life and afraid of death." ”

"It's for the best." Although Qiong Ming agreed to this matter, there was still a faint uneasiness in his heart.

As if she was being used as a bait, the woman was not directly imprisoned on the spot, or even let her go, intending to turn her into a bait that could cause the murderer to take the bait, so that the suspect's whereabouts could be pursued more quickly.

Bai Yulan was lying on the top of the eaves, looking at the drunken dreams and deaths of a group of people under the tiles, she felt a little depressed, she was just to spy on this girl with a special identity, and she felt more like she was watching some strange film, which made people spicy.

This girl is a signboard in the Red Mansion, just standing in it, it is a humanoid signboard.

Her business ability is also good, a mouth is indeed very good at speaking, pleasing people, but now the pressure of competition is too great, her appearance is gradually aging, this young girl is more beautiful than the other, she is like about to enter the half-old, began to have anxiety.

Although there are many benefactors, these people still prefer younger ones after all.

Seeing this, Bai Yulan couldn't help but sigh for this woman, it was really fateful.

The woman received several more benefactors who had come to talk to her, but there was nothing else to do, and she crouched on the beams of the room, feeling bored.

Could it be that the young man is really not a suspect? Just a messenger who came to drink flower wine?

But that's not right, how could a Hu man know such a familiar Han here?

Until a man dressed in white walked in, he was dressed very luxuriously, and his appearance was superior, but the woman didn't seem to know him, but when she saw such a young and handsome benefactor, she felt a little excited in her heart, and threw a wink.

The man didn't react, but said lightly, "I heard that the girl went to the yamen today?" It's the first time I've heard that a woman from a Qinglou appeared at his yamen and was going to testify against someone. ”

Bai Yulan's whole body tensed, and her breathing was even controlled, trying not to make any noise, and holding her breath to concentrate.

The woman was stunned for a moment, and then as if she didn't realize it, she said with a smile, "Although I'm just a woman in a green building, but this has happened to me as an ordinary person, go and say it."

It's nothing to testify, and it's fair for others. ”

"Oh? I'm afraid it's because of the high prize money. The man suddenly laughed.

Bai Yulan's guests were squatting on it, and they could almost feel the strangeness and danger of this man's accident.

But this woman has a big heart, and she still sits firmly like a mountain, and says, "The bonus is indeed rich, and how many people are not impressed, this son, I don't know what you are doing now, looking at your appearance, it doesn't look like you want to drink flower wine here with me?" The slave family doesn't seem to know Childe. ”

For a moment, I only heard the cold light of the man in white flashing, and said with a sneer, "I'm here to shut you up!" ”
