After getting the information they wanted, Lin Hao and Qi Shuo left the place where the man was detained.

After sitting down at a tea shop not far from Du Qing's residence, Qi Shuo ordered: "Inform Xuan Yi that we can take the person directly."

After asking his subordinates to pretend to be officials and take the fake Du Qing away, someone has been guarding the residence, and there has been no news of anyone coming out. If the fake Du Qing didn't lie, then Chen Mu must still be hiding there.

Lin Hao took a sip of tea and sighed with emotion: "How cautious."

There were officers searching everywhere outside. They were searching almost everywhere to find the murderer of Princess Lingque. At this time, Chen Muruo ran away rashly when he saw the fake Du Qing being taken away. He had nowhere to go. At least he could hide there.

Hold on for a while, and you may have a chance after the most stressful time.

Chen Mu is such a cautious person. In her previous life, she was careful in every possible way, but she still could not escape the pursuit led by him.

Lin Hao sighed and looked at Qi Shuo sitting opposite, her heart felt at ease again.

Things have turned around, and this time Chen Mu was hunted down.

The courtyard door was not locked in time when Du Qing was taken away, which was convenient for Xuan Yi and others. A few people were left to guard around the house, and Xuan Yi led the two of them and walked in quietly.

The firewood was piled all the way outside the woodshed. It was stuffy and hot inside, and people started sweating as soon as they entered. Xuan rushed to the two large vats in the corner and lifted the lid of one of them. Inside was pickled vegetables filled with sour smell.

, in the other large vat is a small half vat of brown rice.

Xuan Yichang nodded to his men.

The subordinate understood, picked up a water ladle from the place full of debris, and transferred the brown rice to the ground. Soon it was exposed at the bottom of the jar.

There is obviously a bulge at the bottom of the cylinder.

The subordinates looked at Xuan Yi with questioning eyes.

Xuan Yi leaned over and stretched out his hand to press the protrusion. Although he didn't use any force, he understood the purpose of the protrusion.

He took a step back, took out the firewood from his arms, lit a handful of thin firewood, then grabbed the bulge and pulled it suddenly, throwing the burning firewood into the hole that suddenly appeared.

Almost instantly, a person jumped out from under the tank.

Chen Mu was very skilled, but he jumped out from under the tank to face three people who had been prepared for it. Such an absolute disadvantage made him lose the possibility of escaping.

He was hit the moment he jumped out, and was controlled by Xuan Yi not long after.

Xuan Yi decisively pinched his mouth open, stuffed a ball of cloth inside, handed it over to his subordinates, and went to return to Qi Shuo.

"Has it been confirmed?"

"My subordinates have confirmed that he is the person in the portrait."

Qi Shuo nodded and looked at Lin Hao: "Do you have anything to ask him?"

Lin Hao shook his head: "No, let's send him to Jinlin Guard as agreed."

Emperor Pingle's side has been laying plans for many years, and there are many people hiding in the capital. There is no need for her and A Shuo to stand up to the public.

"Then I'll take you home first."

Lin Hao did not refuse, and was accompanied by Qi Shuo back to the general's mansion, looking at his leaving back with a little envy.

She also wanted to go to Jinlinwei together, but it was inconvenient.

Qi Shuo did not see Cheng Maoming at Jinlinwei Yamen.

"The Governor has gone to the guest house."

"When can I come back?"

Jin Linwei, who greeted Qi Shuo, had a troubled expression on his face: "It's hard to say. If the prince is in a hurry, I'd better ask someone to come and take a look."

As a close confidant of Cheng Maoming, Jin Linwei certainly knew that the Governor treated Prince Jing in a different light, so he did not dare to neglect him.

Qi Shuo was not polite: "Excuse me, I'll wait for him at the teahouse opposite."

Jinlinwei quickly ordered one of his men to go to the guest house.

At this time, Cheng Maoming, who was in the guest house, was very anxious.

A Yu Liu maid has disappeared!

When he heard the report, his eyes went dark and he almost fainted.

The emperor specifically told him not to allow a piece of paper to be sent back to Yuliu. As a result, a big living person was missing, and what was even more terrible was that the missing person was the maid of Yuliu!

After Princess Lingque was killed, the Honglu Guesthouse where the Yuliu envoy lived was closely watched. As long as the Yuliu people walked out of the guesthouse, people would follow them wherever they went, even the birds flying out of the guesthouse.

Regardless of whether it is a homing pigeon or not, just shoot it down and then talk about it.

Despite being so tightly guarded, a Yu Liu maid unexpectedly disappeared.

The death of Princess Lingque was known to everyone in the capital. If someone sent a message to Yu Liu, there was nothing that could be done to stop it. But when a Dazhou person came and said that your princess died in the capital of Da Zhou, there was still a question as to how much Yu Liu would believe it.

But what if it’s the maid next to Princess Lingque?

Cheng Maoming was so anxious that stars appeared in his eyes, and he slapped the subordinate who was responsible for keeping an eye on the guest house: "You bastard, how did you keep an eye on this person?"

The subordinate who was beaten was also very aggrieved: "I followed your instructions and surrounded the guest house layer by layer. There was absolutely no Yu Liu maid who walked out of the guest house door."

"Definitely not going out? What about that person? Did he grow wings and fly out?"

The subordinate lowered his head, not daring to look at Cheng Maoming's furious expression, and said calmly: "Even if you grow wings and fly out, you will still be shot down."

This is what happened to the birds that flew out of the hotel.

"So, you are still in the guest house?"

The subordinates dared not say anything.

The guest house used to house the Yuliu envoy was not very big. It had been searched several times, and there was no sign of the maid at all.

"Keep looking!"

Cheng Maoming walked around in circles with his hands behind his back, worrying about reporting to the emperor that the maid Yu Liu was missing.

A Jinlin guard came over and said, "Grand Governor, Crown Prince Jing is waiting for you at the teahouse opposite the Yamen. He said there is something urgent."

"Go and tell Prince Jing that I can't leave here." Cheng Maoming's first reaction was to refuse. He watched his subordinates walk out and suddenly shouted, "Wait a minute."

The subordinate stopped and looked at him in confusion.

"Let's go." Cheng Maoming said a few words and hurried to the teahouse opposite Jinlinwei Yamen.

Qi Shuo drank tea slowly, guessing what was going on in the guest house, and looked towards the door of the private room when she heard footsteps.

The door was quickly opened, and Cheng Maoming strode in: "I have kept you waiting for a long time."

Until he stood here, he was still a little confused about his behavior.

Such a big thing happened at the guest house, and he had no intention of dealing with anything else. But thinking that it was Prince Jing, he inexplicably wanted to meet him.

What if Prince Jing brings some good news?

This thought passed by in a flash, and Cheng Maoming didn't want to admit it.

He is not such a superstitious person.

Qi Shuo put down the tea cup: "I heard that the Governor is busy, so I shouldn't bother you. It's just that there is a new situation here. After much thought, it would be best to inform the Governor."

"What's going on?" Cheng Maoming felt an uncontrollable surge of expectation in his heart, and then secretly despised himself.

How could good things always come to your door? As the commander of the Jinlin Guards, you cannot have such naive ideas of getting something for nothing.

"That's it. By chance, I found the wanted criminal who killed Princess Lingque." Qi Shuo said calmly.

Cheng Maoming:!
