"You just let her go?"

Seeing Xiu Niang's figure disappear into the night, Ji Yun asked Jia Jue.

Jia Jue nodded: "She is also a poor person, and she has no enmity with us."

In fact, handing her over to the Yamen is just asking for trouble. No matter the official government or people related to the abolished prince, they will all focus on him.

But at this time, he let her go so quietly, no one knew what happened, so naturally he would not be involved in any inexplicable troubles.

"Then what about Xiaolian?"

"Xiu Niang has dismissed the servants on the ship. She will sleep on the ship for three days. On the third day, she will notify your brother and take her away." Jia Jue said.

Ji Yun glanced at him suspiciously, but didn't ask any further questions, just nodded in response.

Jia Jue smiled at her and walked away.

Ji Yun quickly chased after her and asked, "But what about the case?"

According to Xiaolian's account, her plan was to burn Tang Zexiong to death in the room, so she found fierce fire oil and poured it around the room where Tang Zexiong lived.

Other than that, she didn't do anything else, and she didn't know what happened to Tang Zexiong.

The thread seems to be broken here.

Jia Jue smiled faintly: "Look for clues."

"Where do you find it?"

"From the source of everything."

"You mean, Tang Zexiong's residence?" Ji Yun asked.

Jia Jue smiled and said, "Smart."

Ji Yun smiled happily when she heard the words: "That's right, I'm smart."

But half an hour later, her smile completely disappeared.

She looked at the corpse room in front of her, and gave Jia Jue a big roll of her eyes: "You're fooling me again!"

She thought that the source of what Jia Jue said was Tang Zexiong's residence, but who knew it was Tang Zexiong's body.

Jia Jue smiled and said, "What you said is not wrong. Isn't this place where Tang Zexiong lives at this time?"

Ji Yun glared at him, then quietly came to the door of the mortuary room, and knocked out the two guards very quickly.

"Good skill!" Jia Jue gave her a thumbs up.

Seeing this, Ji Yun snorted softly, and pushed open the door of the corpse room.

Jia Jue followed in, but saw many corpses in it.

He was about to look through them one by one, but was stopped by Ji Yun: "Don't move, I'll come."

Jia Jue looked at her in surprise.

"This kind of thing is not suitable for you." Ji Yun said, and began to examine these corpses one by one.

Looking at her back, Jia Jue suddenly smiled, the two taels of silver seemed to be not a loss at all.

After a while, Ji Yun suddenly stopped and waved at Jia Jue: "This should be it."

Jia Jue came to Ji Yun's side, but saw that in front of her was a charred corpse, and the wound on the throat was similar to what was described before. It should be Tang Zexiong.

"What are you going to do?" Ji Yun asked him.

Jia Jue smiled faintly, took out his glasses from his pocket, put them on, and looked Tang Zexiong carefully from beginning to end.

Looking at his actions, Ji Yun was full of doubts. Is the autopsy just to see?Don't do it?

In fact, what she didn't know was that what Jia Jue saw was the specific condition of Tang Zexiong's body. A lot of data and information appeared in front of his eyes. The place did not fall.

However, when his eyes fell on a set of data, he was shocked suddenly.

He quickly turned on the system and compared it, and a flash of astonishment flashed in his eyes.

how can that be!

……

The Yamen of the Ministry of Punishment.

Sitting in the room were Ji Zhong, Yang Da, Minister of Justice, He Qiong, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and Lu Xun, the royal censor of Zuoqin, all of whom were frowning.

At this time, it has been a whole day since the case of Honglu Temple, they dispatched a large number of manpower, but there is no progress in the case.

Zhao Qi only gave them three days in total, and the time was really running out, so they were all extremely anxious.

Just when they were at a loss, a Jin Yiwei suddenly came to report:

"My lord, when I was investigating, I came across a peddler who was selling wontons. According to him, last night, he saw a person jumping over the wall from the Honglu Temple."

Everyone was overjoyed when they heard the words, Ji Zhong quickly said: "It's good to cross-examine."

Jin Yiwei took orders and was about to leave.

But Yang Da stopped him: "Bring him, I'll ask him personally."

Ji Zhong nodded quickly: "Alright, bring him here."

Jin Yiwei took the order to leave, but after a while, he brought an old man who was about sixty years old.

After seeing the ceremony, Ji Zhong hurriedly asked him: "Tell me in detail what you saw that day."

The old man hurriedly said: "At three o'clock that day, the little old man closed the stall and passed by the back gate of Honglu Temple, but suddenly a person jumped out from the courtyard wall, the man was holding a sword, and the little old man smashed the stall .But the man didn’t make things difficult for the little old man, and he helped the little old man put away the stall before leaving.”

"What kind of clothes is that man wearing and what does he look like?" He Qiong asked immediately.

The old man thought for a while, and said: "The little old man didn't pay attention to what clothes he was wearing. As for his appearance, he is a handsome young man."

"How handsome, can you elaborate?" Lu Xun asked quickly, this is the key to solving the case.

The old man groaned for a while, but couldn't say a single word. He knew what that person looked like, but he didn't know how to describe it.

Ji Zhong looked anxiously, he thought for a while, and suddenly said:
"Come here, invite the best painters in the capital!"

It was already late at this time, and most people had already rested, but this was not a problem for Jin Yiwei at all.

After a while of flying around, more than a dozen painters were brought over.

"Just wait and listen to the old man's words, and draw the people." Ji Zhong gave orders to the painters.

A group of painters quickly discussed with the old man. Of course, the result was not very good.

However, there were so many of them after all, so they simply used the most "stupid" method: they drew each part of the person separately, and then asked the old man to choose the closest one, and then adjusted them one by one, finally splicing each part into a complete image.

Although the methods are complicated, they cannot stand up to many.

Several hours later, at dawn, a complete portrait was finally completed.

Ji Zhong and the others hurried over and looked at the portrait.

"what?"

Seeing this portrait, everyone was stunned, their eyes full of astonishment.

"How, how is this possible?" Yang Da murmured with his eyes widened.

He Qiong and Lu Xun looked at each other without saying a word. The portrait in front of them caught them off guard.

Ji Zhong's complexion changed for a while, he picked up the portrait, turned and walked out:

"My lords, this matter is not up to us to decide. I will enter the palace right now, and please Your Majesty to make a decision."

Yang Da, He Qiong and the others looked at each other and nodded. This matter is indeed beyond their control.

That person did this unrighteous act, and the target was the envoys of other countries. Even if His Majesty protects him, it is intolerable by the laws of the country!
Pity……
