In the Tianxiang teahouse, a street away from the Beijing yamen, in an elegant room on the second floor, Wu Tsutsui and Xu Mingyi, disguised as a teenager, just finished breakfast.
They both slipped out early in the morning.
But it's not that there's nothing serious to say——
At this time, after the meal, the dishes were removed and changed for tea. Wu Tsui talked about the progress of his people yesterday.
"In the folk house where Zhan's mother and daughter now live, someone accidentally saw this person meet Zhan yunjiao. It was near dusk and deliberately avoided the sight of most people."
While Wu Tsui was talking, he took out a piece of drawing paper: "this is the portrait of the man."
Instead of handing over the drawing paper directly, he unfolded it on his own, put it on the table and pushed it to Xu Ming's pasta for her to see.
Xu Mingyi fixed his eyes on it.
The painting on it is obviously a girl. Although her clothes are ordinary, it seems like a servant girl according to the style of combing her hair.
And that eyebrow, the more she looked, the more she felt where she had seen it.
But maybe it's because it's too common. She didn't come up with one.
Fortunately, she has a Kui.
Hearing the shouts of her own girl, ah Kui, dressed as a young man, pushed the door and entered. He only glanced at the drawing paper and said, "isn't this ziyue, the servant girl of the fourth girl of the Xia family?"
Although she is not the one most often taken out by Miss Xia Si, she has also seen it - her good memory is not only reflected in reading the script.
Xu Mingyi: "are you sure you read it correctly?"
"Maidservant will never admit her mistake." ah Kui looked determined.
Xu Mingyi nodded.
After completing the task, ah Kui consciously withdrew and closed the door again from the outside.
"It seems that it's really Xia Xi." Xu Mingyi looked at the portrait and said, "why don't you give the portrait to Lord Ji?"
Although this portrait alone can not directly prove that Xia Xi is the mastermind, it is also a progress. With this portrait, with some means, Zhan yunjiao may be able to let go.
As long as Zhan yunjiao let go, the next thing will be easy to do.
Wu Tsung said, "well," just make a decision. "
He is only responsible for contributing.
Xu Mingyi would fold the paper again.
In the process, he couldn't help asking: "although it's just a simple portrait, it's also vivid, and it's only described by people, and I haven't seen it with my own eyes - I don't know who made it?"
After struggling for a while, Wu Tsui replied: "... Xiao Qi."
He didn't want to be very clear.
But it suddenly occurred to him that he had something to say——
Xu Mingyi nodded clearly.
It's Xiao Qi.
She remembered that Mr. Mo in Xuesheng teahouse had praised Xiao Qi's talent in painting.
It seems that Xia Han's house drawing was written by Xiao Qi.
And she remembers that Xiao Qi's cooking is also very good.
Is this the so-called - a cook who can't draw is not a good dark guard?
In this way, Xiao Qi has many advantages, and he looks very reliable
Xu Mingyi suddenly thought of the words that his mother accidentally mentioned to her two days ago that it was time to pay more attention to the marriage between ah Zhu and ah Kui.
Seeing that she was distracted, the boy opposite felt more and more necessary to say.
"When I was in Ningyang, I saw that Xiao Qi was quite close to Miss Qiu. I promised Xiao Qi that when they were almost in progress, I would come forward for him to propose marriage to doctor Qiu."
Xu Mingyi was stunned.
She just wanted to pull Xiaoqi's meat into her ah Kui bowl? Why did the house collapse before it could be built? And it's still the feeling that even bricks and tiles have been robbed and another building has been built in place.
And... Xiao Qi and Miss Qiu?
I always feel that these two people are clearly out of touch.
What is the chance that they are "quite close"?
"Is this really true?" she looked at the person in front of her suspiciously. "Are you wrong? Do you order the mandarin duck spectrum here?"
Wu Tsung glanced at her.
"I can't even see through this."
Xu Mingyi was silent.
I'm afraid he can see through too much——
After all, this is an overactive brain, which she had experienced before - when he thinks you are happy with him, you will even breathe as evidence of his happiness.
The same? Who knows if he will apply this imagination to Xiao Qi and Miss Qiu?
Just
Talking? Why does this person seem to be getting a little unhappy?
Didn't he start first?
At this time, a burst of disorderly footsteps and voices suddenly sounded outside.
"Why did all the people downstairs suddenly leave?"
"What happened?"
"There's excitement to see who still drinks tea!"
"What new excitement is there?"
"... Lord Ji is trying a case! It was the case of Miss Xu the day before yesterday!"
"How can we return the trial? Didn't we all plead guilty in court the day before yesterday?"
"Said he had changed his confession!"
"Ah... I have to go and have a look... Brother Li, wait for me!"
After roughly hearing some key words, Xu Mingyi looked at Wu Tsui? They stood up at the same time.
Xu Mingyi grabbed the curtain hat on the table and put it on? Go outside? The knot was tied quickly by the fingers.
Even though she dressed up as a man? But just appeared in the Beijing government hall the other day? Need to know? For those who watch the excitement all year round, the most important thing is a pair of penetrating eyes.
When they came to the yamen, the hall was surrounded by people.
Wu Chiu didn't want to squeeze forward, but seeing Xu Mingyi tiptoe to see, she motioned Xiao Qi to drive ahead.
The road is not difficult.
The people in the capital are really talkative - Xiao qibian stuffed half the empty money bag back into his arms and sighed at the bottom of his heart.
Lord Ji in the hall doesn't have time to envy the people? Now he frowned tightly? The voice again confirmed: "you mean? The person who ordered you to murder Miss Xu? Is it Xia Xi, the fourth girl of Xia?!"
Why is he so unlucky!
Last year, I tried the case of Xia Han, the second son of the Xia family. This year, another Xia Si girl came?
Did he fight with the Xia family?
For a time, Ji Dong didn't know which was more worthy of sympathy between himself and Lord Xia.
Zhan yunjiao, dressed in prison clothes, replied sadly and angrily: "Lord Hui? I was instructed by Xia Xi to do all this! No... it was coercion! She threatened me. If I didn't follow her plan, she wouldn't let me and my mother go!"
Then he kowtowed with tears and said, "the reason why I didn't dare to give her up the day before yesterday was also because I was afraid that she would retaliate against my mother! But now I want to understand that I can't hide. Only by explaining the truth can I force the Xia family to leave a way for my mother in full view of the public!"
At this time, the pot was already fried.
Even Xu Mingyi didn't expect to hear such a straightforward answer from Zhan yunjiao.
But... Can Zhan yunjiao really say such a clever, selfish and traceless way to incite people's hearts?
