Chapter 209: There is a secret hidden in the golden hairpin
Lord Bao took everyone back to Kaifeng Mansion, it was already late, and Shen Pu was sitting there in the lobby of the mansion.
It turned out that the newly appointed secretary of the Criminal Department had also received a report.
In the lobby, Ji Feng and Lu Bu told the story again.
"Tang Zhuangshi, this official knows that you have nothing to do with this case, but you and Miss Jifeng had no choice but to be wronged before they found the concubine Niangniang and were temporarily detained here." Master Bao said.
"Villains don't embarrass adults." Lu Bu nodded.
Ji Feng was a little scared, the environment of the cell must not be comparable to the palace.
The two were escorted down.
"Lord Shen, this case is too important, if you wait until Banzai asks about it, I'm afraid you and I won't be able to explain it." Bao Zheng said.
"According to the wishes of the adults, we should go and report to Banzai immediately?" Shen Pu asked.
Bao Zheng glanced at the dark sky outside.
At this time, it is not a good choice to go to the palace to disturb the emperor.
Not long after, the officials who Bao Zheng had left behind to follow the mark came back.
As expected by Lord Bao, they did not find any valuable clues, but outside the back wall of Guoning Temple, they found a line of wheel prints, and after comparison, it was determined that it was the car that Concubine Liu was riding.
The facts of the case are very clear, the coachman and the bandits hiding in the monastery jointly abducted Concubine Liu.
Now the question is, where did the coachman come from, did he really come from the palace, or was someone impostor? The monk named Jingyuan, who knows?
The two analyzed together for most of the night before Shen Pu returned to the Criminal Department.
Before dawn, Bao Zheng and Shen Pu had already gotten up and gone to the palace.
At noon, the two came out.
When the emperor heard the news, he was furious and only gave the two of them three days to find Concubine Liu, and to report the progress at any time.
Soon after Shen Pu returned to the mansion, Fei Caihe got the news and sent Qinglian to inquire.
The one who is most worried about this matter is actually Fei Caihe.
Naturally, she was not worried about Concubine Liu, but her cousin.
As soon as he took office, he encountered such a big case, if he couldn't find Concubine Liu, or if there was an accident, I am afraid that he would not be able to keep his official position.
"Please also ask Miss Qinglian to reply to her cousin, Xiaosheng believes in Master Bao's ability and will definitely solve the case within a time limit." Shen Pu said.
"Although the black head is powerful, I'm afraid I'm in big trouble this time." Qinglian was still a little worried, "My cousin shouldn't go with that bag of blackheads, you can use the excuse that you have just arrived and are not familiar with this place, and you want that bag of blackheads to solve the case alone, so as not to worry about my mother and slaves." ”
Shen Pu knew that Qinglian's words came from the bottom of his heart.
His hand touched the golden hairpin in the sleeve of his robe.
I wanted to return it to Qinglian, but I couldn't help it.
On the night he picked up the golden hairpin, Shen Pu accidentally found several strange symbols on the small pendant of the golden hairpin.
These symbols are clearly not written in the Great Song Dynasty.
Shen Pu was also curious, and he couldn't sleep anyway, so he simply found some related books and began to try to crack them.
When it was about to dawn, he finally discovered that this was actually a kind of hieroglyphic script from ancient times, and slowly pieced together some content:
The first is the two huge ovals, followed by the upper part of the word "Bao", that is, the part where the word "jade" is removed.
Other symbols were deciphered into a "wood" character by him.
Who would have carved such words on this little pendant, and what is the meaning?
Shen Pu was almost very interested in the things in the book, and these symbols happened to arouse his curiosity, so he held the golden hairpin tightly in his hand and did not hand it over.
Fortunately, Qinglian didn't ask.
The golden hairpin was taken by Qinglian from Jin Guan'er, from Concubine Liu, for Qinglian, it is only slightly more expensive than other jewelry, and it is not unusual.
After sending Qinglian away, Shen Pu put the golden hairpin in his study and bedroom, and after confirming that he would not be found, he walked out and went to Kaifeng Mansion.
What he has to do now is to assist Master Bao to find Concubine Liu as soon as possible.
At the same time that Shen Pu arrived in Kaifeng Mansion, another person also came here.
However, this person did not go to the government office of Kaifeng Mansion, but to the government prison not far away.
The cell boss, known as the Fifth Master, recognized this person.
He was a forbidden samurai named Lin Yu.
"What's the matter, General Lin knows Miss Jifeng?" Hearing that the person Lin Yu wanted to see was Ji Feng, the fifth master was a little surprised.
"Don't hide it from the fifth master, the villain and Miss Jifeng have known each other for a long time, I heard that she was implicated in the case of the concubine and was locked up here, the villain specially came to visit, and asked the fifth master to make it convenient." Lin Yu said.
The fifth master touched his face that was flushed with drunkenness.
"General Lin doesn't know, Miss Jifeng and Tang Lubu are important suspects, Lord Bao specially told no one to approach, if the villain lets you in, if Lord Bao knows, I'm afraid the villain can't afford to eat it."
Lin Yu seemed to be prepared, and when he saw that there was no one around, he took out a cloth bag from his pocket and brought it over.
"The villain knows that the fifth master likes the things in the cup, and this bit of silver is to buy some wine and food for the fifth master, and the villain will go to the restaurant to feast on the fifth master another day."
The fifth master also glanced around and quickly put away the silver.
"If you are sincere, the villain will make an exception and ask you to go in, just be fast, and don't mention it to anyone."
"Yes." Lin Yu agreed.
Soon, he appeared at the door of the cell where Ji Feng was being held.
The women's prison is separate from the men's prison, and there were originally several female officers, but because there were no prisoners, the female officers rarely came here.
The same is true today, there is not a single figure in the entire cell.
Ji Feng curled up in the corner.
She knew that if Bao Zheng and Shen Pu couldn't find Concubine Liu, she and Lu Bu would have no hope of living.
At this time, he suddenly saw Lin Yu, who he thought about day and night, and Ji Feng was so excited that his eyes wept.
Through the thick fence, the two men hugged each other and wept.
"Sister Feng, don't cry, the villain has a good way to help you get rid of your guilt." Lin Yu said.
"The concubine can't find it, how can the little sister get away with it?" Ji Feng was still wiping her tears.
Lin Yu put his mouth to Ji Feng's ear.
Ji Feng's face turned pale.
"W-This is the horse's idea?"
Lin Yu was stunned.
"How do you know it's the Horse Master's idea?"
"Master Ma repeatedly wanted to harm General Tang, and the little sister also secretly helped, so he was ordered by Concubine Liu not to go out of the Horse Mansion, but fortunately, the little sister's matter was not discovered by the concubine." Ji Feng said.
"This time is different, if it is successful, the surnamed Tang will have no way to live, you can be acquitted, and the master of the horse will be maneuvering from it, and he will definitely want you and me to be together as soon as possible." Lin Yu said.
Ji Feng gritted his teeth.
"It's just that I have already told Mr. Bao what happened that day, and if I retract my confession, I'm afraid Lord Bao won't believe it."
"This matter is not difficult, the master of the horse will find a way to ask you to go back to the palace to see the emperor." Lin Yu whispered to Ji Feng.
Ji Feng nodded.
Although Dong Chun was ordered by Concubine Liu not to leave the Horse Mansion, the Duke of Changning wanted to go to the palace and accompany the concubine, even the palace person sent by Concubine Liu who was in charge of monitoring him did not dare to stop him.
Some people died, but not completely......
