"Really?!" Qingzhu ignored the quarrel with Li Wenchong and asked quickly, "What clues? Have you found someone? Who is she? Where does she live? Does she have children? She..."
The guard with the knife had a strange expression.
"Okay, Qingzhu." Li Wenchong spoke out to stop Qingzhu from continuing to ask, and motioned to the guard with the knife to continue.
The guard with the knife said very respectfully: "While the people below were investigating, the portrait was accidentally blown away by the wind, and then it was picked up by the Gu family..."
----------------------------------------
----------------------------------------
"Eh? Why do I think the person in this portrait looks familiar?" Yao Ruyan held the portrait and felt like she had seen it somewhere before.
When Gu Mozhai saw Jin Yiwei coming, he quickly asked Yao Ruyan to return the portrait.
Unexpectedly, the Jin Yiwei who led the team had extremely sharp ears and eyes. He vaguely heard the word "familiar", so he did not take the portrait, but stared at Yao Ruyan and asked: "Madam, have you seen the person in the portrait?"
"Ah? I don't know, I just think it looks familiar..."
"Think about it carefully. If Madam can tell me, there will be many rewards."
"Who is that in this portrait? Is he a criminal?" Yao Ruyan just asked, but was stopped by Gu Mozhai with a look of helplessness.
Gu Mozhai said: "Okay, there are so many people who look similar in the world, and you don't know who they are, so don't delay Jin Yiwei's handling of the case. Let's go, don't you want to buy a new hairpin?"
Yao Ruyan noticed something strange in Gu Mozhai's eyes and closed her mouth that she wanted to open. She said, "That's right, I almost forgot if you didn't tell me."
Then he turned around and apologized to Jin Yiwei, "I'm sorry, it looks familiar at first glance, but upon closer inspection, it doesn't look so familiar anymore. I'm really sorry for delaying your handling of the case."
The couple walked away.
Jin Yiwei stood there, looked at the portrait, and then at the lady who walked away: It really looks a bit like her!
He gave a secret signal and asked someone to follow the couple.
The couple walked away. Yao Ruyan turned around to confirm that there were no Jinyi guards nearby, and said to Gu Mozhai doubtfully: "Why did you just say that? Did you really not recognize the person in the portrait? She looks so similar to me.
You look at me every day and still can’t tell who she is?”
At first, Yao Ruyan really didn't remember who was in the portrait. When she realized what she was doing, she was a little surprised - because the person in the portrait was actually her mother?!
——My dear!
——Why did her mother come to the portrait?
Gu Mozhai was speechless and said: "Jinyiwei is handling the case. Do you think it would be a good thing to have a relationship with Jinyiwei?"
"But... OK, how come my mother got involved with Jin Yiwei?" Yao Ruyan wondered, "Didn't my mother take my brother and the others to Jinling? Could it be that someone is secretly framing my mother and the others?"
Gu Mozhai shook his head: "I don't know about that. Anyway, you treat it as if you don't know about it and don't mention it to anyone, okay? We'll go shopping as originally planned later, and then go home and put this matter away."
Tell my father and eldest brother what happened, maybe they will have clues."
Yao Ruyan was inspired and nodded.
When Jin Yiwei, who was disguised in civilian clothes, heard this, he winked at the other person and asked him to continue following him. He quietly retreated and then reported what he heard.
Not long after, the news reached Tong Xingyu, the knife-wielding guard. As soon as he heard the news, he reported it to Li Wenchong without saying a word.
"Did you see it? Master, my subordinate said, I must have seen the person. Is the subordinate right? The person has been found..." Qingzhu urged, asking Li Wenchong to quickly order an investigation of the young couple. Wait until the investigation is clear.
If we know their identities, won't we be able to find the woman?
However, Li Wenchong's expression was hard to describe.
Didn't Qingzhu hear clearly just now? The guard with the knife reported to the "young couple". Since the girl is married, how can her mother be younger?
The little girl and the girl were at least thirteen or fourteen years old, and then they met and got married, and they were already sixteen or seventeen years old.
Judging from the tacit understanding between the couple, it is obvious that they cannot be newlyweds, so the age of this girl...
After calculating the girl's age, and then calculating her mother's age, if you add a dozen years, the girl's mother is at least thirty-five years old, and may be even higher.
After doing this calculation, are you sure he is the one they are looking for?
Li Wenchong remembered clearly that although he had some vague consciousness due to the drug at the time, the woman's skin was like gelatin and felt particularly tender and smooth, and she did not look that old.
And afterwards, he also saw her face and looked at her carefully several times.
Others don't know what's going on, so if they hear clues, they just want to check it out. Why is Qingzhu also confused?
However, with outsiders present, Li Wenchong really couldn't argue with Qingzhu, so he had no choice but to agree and let Tong Xingyu, the knife-wielding guard, follow the clues to investigate. They must find out the identity of the person and confirm whether he is the person they are looking for.
"Yes, my subordinate will do it now."
Tong Xingyu, the guard with a sword, accepted the order and respectfully stepped down.
As soon as he left, Li Wenchong glared at Qingzhu, who was still excited and wanted to investigate it himself, and said, "Did you do it on purpose?"
"Ah? Master, what are you talking about?"
"I said, did you do it on purpose? That girl is already married, do you think her mother can be young? So, do you think I slept with an 'old woman'?" Li Wenchong bit the "old woman" three times.
words.
"No, the woman I'm looking for for my master is a bit older, but she doesn't come from the barren mountains and mountains. I can't find another woman..." Qingzhu didn't understand what Li Wenchong meant, and thought that his master liked young people.
The little girl disliked the fact that the woman he was looking for was a bit too old, so she hurriedly explained, "We met just one person along the way. If it's not her, it has to be the woman who wants to make your decision. You don't have to choose at all. Besides, my subordinates
After taking a closer look, that woman is actually quite good-looking, except that she is a little older..."
Li Wenchong was so angry that he knocked a book on Qingzhu's head. Qingzhu was so frightened that he jumped and ran away.
"You still dare to run?! Come back here..."
"Subordinate, don't run away. Master wants to beat me up. I'm not wrong. I won't tell you anymore. I'm going to call the Jin Yiwei to find out the news. I'll tell you the good news later."
Li Wenchong was so angry that he really wanted to snatch Qingzhu back and give him a good beating.
This kid simply went to the house to reveal his tiles without fighting for three days!
On the other side, our hostess Gu Qingling sneezed: "Aqiu——"
She rubbed her nose and muttered, "Is someone missing me?"
The eldest maid Chun Chun came over and said that Uncle Yao was here.
"Why did he come here at this time?" Gu Qingling looked at the sky outside and felt a little surprised, "Shouldn't he be studying in the academy at this time?"
"Maybe there's something going on." The eldest maid Chuntian lowered her head, not daring to make random guesses.
