Chapter 489: A Little Jealousy 9
"Envoy Fang?" Ye Qiqi was stunned for a moment, then looked at Mo Hanqing and asked, "Why is it him?" ”
"Lin Yurou is the daughter of a scholar of Lin University, but she knows anyone who is a little more famous in the capital, and those who are close to the second prince must be people with a certain status, but the person who appeared next to the second prince that day, Lin Yurou has never seen ......" Mo Hanqing's slender fingers rubbed his chin and asked Ye Qiqi: "You say, why is this?" ”
"Because...... This person hasn't been seen in the capital before? Ye Qiqi tilted his head and thought about it, and gave a conclusion.
"Hmm." Mo Hanqing nodded and said: "Leng Liu has been to the Second Prince's Mansion to investigate before, and he has a very close correspondence with Beichen Kingdom, so this envoy is likely to be very familiar with the Second Prince." ”
"So what do we do now?" Ye Qiqi listened to his words, and suddenly felt that this case had become much more complicated in an instant.
Once the envoys of other countries are involved, it is for the sake of the interests of the two countries...... Maybe the case will be shelved.
"It's okay, let's follow the steps step by step." Mo Hanqing narrowed his eyes, the corners of his lips hooked a shallow arc, and he said unhurriedly.
The next day, early in the morning, Scholar Lin went to the Yamen to report to the official in tears, saying that his eldest daughter was missing.
At the same time, legend has it that a mutilated and mutilated female corpse was found on the outskirts of Beijing.
The official took Scholar Lin to see the mutilated female corpse, and with some small features on the corpse, Scholar Lin confirmed on the spot that it was his eldest daughter who was killed.
When he went to court that day, the scholar of Lin University cried bitterly in the court, lying on the ground, crying uncontrollably, and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were all moved.
It is said that after hearing about this extremely bad way of killing, the emperor was even more furious, and demanded on the spot that Lord Chen, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and Lord Gu, the secretary of Dali Temple, must find the murderer within half a month, otherwise he will be directly dismissed from his post and investigated.
All of a sudden, rumors spread in the capital, and speculation about the murderer continued.
Lord Gu has been urged by the emperor in the past few days, and there is a circle of blisters around his mouth, and it hurts fiercely when he opens his mouth.
Fortunately, after using the strength of the city's garrison, they finally found the other parts of the dismembered corpses.
However, what shocked Lord Gu was that in addition to the bodies of Lin Yurou's sister and the man, they also found many mutilated white bones buried everywhere.
All of these bodies that were found, without exception, had no heads, no skulls could be found.
Mo Hanqing sat behind the desk in the study, listening to Lord Gu's trembling report, and couldn't help frowning.
In addition to the eldest daughter of the Lin scholar family and the body of the man, so many headless corpses were found?
How many died at the hands of that man!?
"Your Highness, Your Highness......" Lord Gu knelt on the ground of the study, looked at Mo Hanqing with a haggard expression, and said sadly: "There are so many headless corpses, how many years and months does the old minister have to find out before all the cases can be closed!" Now, the old minister really can't return to his hometown safely......"
"Hmm......" Mo Hanqing replied lightly, his fair and slender palm supported his chin, pondered for a moment, and then spoke: "Did you find what you asked you to check last time?" ”
