Boyi was startled by Yu Qiansi's cruel look, but after thinking about it he still said cautiously: "It's not that I don't want to tell you. It's just that I just got this jade bead a few days earlier than you, so I didn't know
Specific situation. Only known."
He considered his words and said: "I only know that it may have something to do with a case that happened back then. But if you are willing to take this case, I promise you that I will do my best to help you find out the origin of this bead. But you have to tell me.
,Why do you care so much about this bead?"
He vaguely felt that he seemed to know the key to Yuli Pavilion's selection of suffering masters, and the reason why Yu Qiansi set strange requirements.
"Otherwise, I don't know how to ask the insider." Seeing that Yu Qiansi was still silent, he added.
"Before you really have the ability to let me investigate this matter, you have no right to ask me. And why I care about this bead has nothing to do with you."
At this moment, Yu Qiansi has regained some sense. These words are just to test Boyi's identity. She always cares about him inexplicably. Why does the saint care about him so much?
What's more, if he wants to investigate such palace secrets, he has to think carefully about it himself.
Boyi also understood what she meant.
I was looking for the Yuli Pavilion, not the Criminal Division.
Naturally, Si Yin, the Secretary of Punishment, has a bronze talisman that can penetrate the palace and can enter and leave the palace at will, but the owner of the Yuli Pavilion cannot.
Unless he can be like Yu Anning, even if he can find a reason for Yu Ren and let the Criminal Division find a way to intervene, otherwise, he can only find a way to let the Yuli Pavilion investigate.
This is a clear test to test your ability in Beijing.
He was a little annoyed: "If you say that, doesn't it mean you don't trust me?"
Yu Qiansi closed her eyes, took out a wooden sign from her sleeve, and pushed it in front of Boyi.
It is engraved with carps playing in the water, and the number is engraved on the lower right corner: 200 and 25.
"I accepted this case, but there is one condition."
"The transaction will only count after you tell me the matters related to this bead. If I am satisfied, I don't mind bending the law for personal gain to help you in the name of the Criminal Division."
Boyi frowned and smiled bitterly. She was really bold and dared to speak so bluntly to herself about the behavior of "bending the law for personal gain".
He lowered his eyes and looked at the wooden sign on the table.
Carp play in the river.
A carp swim in the clear water of a river?
This is an anagram, which coincides with the name of "Yuli Pavilion" - "Li".
He accepted the wooden sign and said, "Okay, it's a deal."
After the two agreed, Yu Qiansi stood up neatly and left the tea break as if running away.
Her steps were hurried and uncertain. When she was far away from the tea house, she turned into an alley, leaned against the wall, and slowly sat down on the ground against the wall, raising her head and taking a deep breath.
Over and over again, the tightness in my chest could not be relieved no matter what.
After years of searching, she finally got a clue, but she felt as if she had fallen into a bottomless abyss, feeling dizzy.
She held her forehead with her hands and laughed.
I thought that after going through so much, she would be calm and composed long ago, but I didn't expect that she was still so careless. How could she say "miserable" in her performance today.
After calming down for a moment, she stood up again, turned around and walked towards the Duke of Qi's mansion.
She didn't notice at all that there was a black figure following closely behind her. It was Boyi who was worried about her situation.
Seeing her heading towards the Duke of Qi's mansion, he hesitated and stopped.
He laughed at himself, turned around and left.
*
The guard in front of the Duke of Qi's mansion saw the man in red standing quietly in front of the mansion with an incomprehensible expression.
It's not okay to ask, it's not okay not to ask, it's all a problem.
What happened to this little aunt?
Just as he was about to quietly find someone to report, he saw Yao An driving a carriage from one side, so he breathed a sigh of relief and quietly retreated.
"Jade girl?"
Yao An tied up the carriage and was a little surprised: "Why are you here?"
When Yu Qiansi came back to her senses, she was in a state of confusion and wanted to take a look at her mother. However, she didn't expect that she was timid about being close to home, so she still didn't take that step.
She lowered her head in silence, she was such a waste.
But Wang Song's voice was heard from inside the carriage: "Come up, I'll take you to the punishment department."
He didn't even ask why she was here.
Yao An asked doubtfully: "Young Master, aren't we going to enter the palace?"
Hearing this, Yu Qiansi also looked over in confusion.
"No problem, I just happened to go to Dali Temple to check the files first."
Yu Qiansi was exhausted both physically and mentally at the moment, and had no energy to be polite to him any more. He leaned on the footstool and reached into the carriage, leaning against the wall of the carriage to continue his trance.
Wang Song said nothing, only nodded and smiled, picked up the memorial and continued reading.
The carriage passed through Dongshi, and when it was almost to the punishment department, Yu Qiansi spoke briefly.
"Young Master, I found a clue."
Wang Song stopped turning the pages in his hand, then closed the memorial, put it aside, and listened carefully.
"That Boyi. He has clues in his hands."
Is it this person again?
Wang Song frowned and said hesitantly: "This is too much of a coincidence. Could it be?"
"Even if it's a trap, this is the only clue. I'm going to give it a try."
After so many years, she found nothing. She did not dare to investigate in a big way, so she could only open the Yuli Pavilion and inquire carefully.
Craftsmen have their own habits, and maybe they don't know it themselves, but the habits of their hands over thousands of years, the angle and force of the carving knife, will not change.
Whether it is reflected in the carved lines or the craftsmanship of the bead center.
As long as she finds similar carvers and turners, she will be sure to find clues.
But I don’t know how many years have passed since the case in hand, but I have never encountered a similar bead.
This was the only clue and she didn't want to give up.
Yu Qiansi looked over with tearful eyes, full of determination.
He sighed softly: "Okay, then let's go and do it."
As he finished speaking, the carriage stopped, and outside the carriage Yao An reminded: "Young Master, the punishment department is here."
Wang Song reached out and handed over a food box and said: "This is a snack prepared for your majesty to accompany the meal. I bought two portions, and I will leave this one to you."
Yu Qiansi took it, got off the carriage, and stood on the street holding the food box. For a moment, Wang Song felt like she was like a helpless little girl who had lost her beloved thing.
He closed the window and paused slightly, then said, "Eat well."
Then Yaoan was ordered to drive away.
Yao An said in confusion: "Young Master, aren't you going to Dali Temple?"
How come you got to the gate of the Punishment Division and then turned back?
Wang Song didn't answer, he was full of thoughts.
It's not that he hasn't checked the uncle's house carefully. But just like Yu Qiansi, the further he checks, the more no problems appear. But this kind of no problem means exactly that there is a problem.
What is the origin of this Boyi?
The new policies of the Ministry of Household Affairs that he implemented were intertwined with each other, and he could actually appear out of thin air without finding any problems.
Could it be related to the successive gangs? But looking at the appearance of Guang'an Hou, it doesn't look like he knows him. When A Si investigated the fire in the Hou Mansion, he even connived with Xiao Zhang to impute the crime to Boyi.
Until he was sitting in the Yuchen Hall, he was still thinking about the breakthrough.
Jiang Jiming found it rare to see Wang Song so lost in thought, laughing and joking.
"Cousin, this is the first time I've seen you so distracted."
Wang Song came back to his senses and saw the young emperor looking at him with interest, and nodded quickly.
"Just some trivial matters."
Jiang Jiming still smiled and wrote the word "Jue Qian" on the paper. It penetrated the back of the paper and he was very satisfied.
Then he threw away his pen and continued to ask: "Is mentioning the criminal department a trivial matter, or is it Master Yu's matter and considered a trivial matter?"
Wang Song was stunned for a moment.
Jiang Jiming explained with a smile: "After all, my cousin rejected my appointment and asked me to wait for a while longer. The agreed snacks were also changed from two to one. I have to know the reason, right?"
Wang Song was silent for a moment and then said: "It's Ah Si's matter."
As expected, Jiang Jiming looked jokingly at his cousin, who was usually aloof from emotion to emotion.
He reassured: "I don't think you need to worry, cousin. Mr. Yu has been solving strange cases recently, but he helped us hold back those old-fashioned people. Don't worry too much. I've read all the information about Dali Temple's ginseng.
I did not see."
When he said this, he sounded like a child asking for credit.
Wang Song had no choice but to say: "I just heard that after pestering the Criminal Division, a person is pestering the Yuli Pavilion again. I am worried that there is fraud."
Jiang Jiming understood and asked carelessly: "Is it Boyi from Weiran Academy? He actually went to Yuli Pavilion? Interesting! He asked Lord Yu for help? Lord Yu took his case?"
Seeing Wang Song frowning and looking at him, he smiled, hey, with a hint of embarrassment.
"My cousin must have known about my sneaking out of the palace before, so I told the truth. At that time, I saw that he acted openly and aboveboard. He didn't look like a sinister villain, but more like a knight-errant. I was also very curious that he would come to Yuliguan.
what to do?"
"Ah Si has taken over the case, but hasn't started the investigation yet."
"In that case, there's no need to worry."
Wang Song raised his eyebrows in confusion.
"She is so smart. If there is a problem, does she need us to remind her? Besides, with her temperament, she will not give up until she achieves her goal. If you are really worried, why not think of a way to detain this person?
Right under my nose, if he really has other intentions, it would be easy to find out. If his identity is okay, such a good son can be easily used by the court, right?"
Wang Song lowered his eyelids to hide the surprise in his eyes.
Does the Holy Spirit want to recruit Boyi?
Seeing that Wang Song didn't answer, Jiang Jiming didn't say much. He touched a piece of Sui Zhai's snack and tasted it with a smile.
"The snacks outside the palace are better."
Wang Song listened to the young emperor's innocent and cheerful words as before, but fell into deep thought.
In the past two years, my cousin has become increasingly elusive.
He knew that he would definitely be discovered if he secretly entered and exited the palace, so by openly admitting the matter, he was unable to do anything.
What's more important is his attitude towards this Boyi.
Asi suddenly has clues to the mystery that he has been investigating for many years. The new household registration system is strict and orderly, but there are still people who can fake their identities and swagger into Beijing?
Wang Song just felt a little powerless.
After a long silence, he spread out his pen and ink and concentrated on his official duties.
Even if things are messy and complicated, they must be completed step by step.
Let's deal with the immediate matters first, and then think about it in the long term.
I wonder if any friends are curious after reading this: Where is the case? Where is the case? Is the second article as simple as exposing someone’s innocence?
Of course not. In fact, this case has already happened between the lines. Without giving away the details, the next chapter will get into the details of the case. Thank you everyone for your continued support!
