About ten miles away from the Li family gate, Jiang Ye leaned against the wall and saw Zhou Zijin coming out, so he hurriedly greeted him.

"Your Majesty, how is the matter?"

Zhou Zijin glanced at Xiao He: "It's not too smooth. Let's go to Yiyang Inn first."

A few people sat down directly in the lobby. An's mother took some pen and paper and placed them neatly in front of Xiao He.

"Girl, I..."

Xiaohe held the pen and was a little nervous.

Lin Zhiyu gave her an encouraging look: "Draw as much as you memorize."

When Xiao He was doing things, Lin Zhiyu noticed that this girl's memory was more than a little better than others, and she could even be said to have a photographic memory.

She was at Li's house before, and she only had a quick glance at the paper, but she was still able to restore it to almost everything. She was also a capable person.

Xiao He frowned and calmed down, thinking about it in his mind while writing.

About half an hour later, a not-so-exquisite map of Qingshan City was displayed in front of everyone.

Lin Zhiyu stretched out his hand and pointed upward: "What does this symbol mean?"

Zhou Zijin: "This is the sign of the checkpoint."

He tapped lightly on the other side, "This is where the Qingshan Army is stationed."

Lin Zhiyu suddenly realized.

By letting Wang Xisi take the position of governor, he was holding the army in his hands without arousing suspicion from above.

"Without an army, we are at the mercy of others."

Zhou Zijin sighed vaguely, and his eyes fell on Xiao He, who looked confused.

"This girl next to you doesn't know the current situation?"

He turned to Lin Zhiyu, who shook his head slightly.

Jiang Ye took the hint, hooked his fingers at Xiao He, took her aside and whispered something.

"Since I have decided to follow you, there are some things I still need to know."

Zhou Zijin took a sip of tea.

Lin Zhiyu supported her chin with one hand: "Don't say it's her, I still don't understand the situation."

More accurately, I don’t know what to do.

The whereabouts of the jade seal are unknown, the Xirong spy who disappeared with Jian Ying, and Qin Xiao who wants to get rid of him quickly.

No matter how you look at it, it is a troublesome matter.

Lin Zhiyu sighed.

Zhou Zijin: "I said before that if a girl sighs, she will grow old easily."

Lin Zhiyu: "You sighed just now."

Zhou Zijin: "This is so that I can grow old together with you."

Lin Zhiyu: "..."

Where did you learn this from?

Lin Zhiyu glared at him: "Let's talk about business!"

In the eyes of the unruly Zhou Zijin, this look seemed to be coquettish.

"Well, I'm talking about business." He smiled.

Lin Zhiyu felt her heart bubbling, so she simply turned her head and ignored him.

"Then Li An and the county magistrate may have a personal relationship."

She changed the subject to the other end with a slightly stiff tone.

Zhou Zijin also straightened his expression: "Send Master Wen to the Yamen, firstly for the Wang family's marriage, and secondly to kill you for your prestige."

When coaxing a girl, you always have to have a certain level. One more point won't do, and one point less will be useless.

Zhou Zijin looked at Lin Zhiyu's expression out of the corner of his eye and noticed a slight curve at the corner of her mouth, and a smile slipped out of the end of her eyes.

Just at this time, Jiang Ye sat back with Xiao He, and the dispute between the two people's eyebrows was clearly visible in his eyes.

Huh, stinky couple.

Jiang Ye murmured in his heart, felt his mouth was dry again, and poured himself a cup of tea.

He raised his neck and drank a gulp. He caught a glimpse of Xiao He's pale face. He poured another half cup and pushed it towards her.

Lin Zhiyu said: "Master Wen will inevitably suffer some hardships when he comes to the Yamen. Then I will ask the prince to go to the Yamen."

Zhou Zijin turned around and said, "Jiang Ye, take my token and go to the Yamen when the time comes."

"What excuse are you using?" Jiang Ye said with a bitter look on his face. Those in the officialdom are human beings!

Zhou Zijin: "Just say that I still have something to ask Master Wen and let him take care of it."

Jiang Ye: "What about you, my lord?"

Zhou Zijin turned his attention to Lin Zhiyu: "Go and check that old man Gu."

Jiang Ye: "What are you checking?"

"Family background, background, and anyone you have any grudges with."

Lin Zhiyu took the lead and said, "Master Wen is not very courageous. It is impossible for him to kill someone just for the money of a Bagua mirror."

……

In the afternoon, it is time for a good sleep.

The county magistrate, Li Hongrui, clasped his hands behind his back and sighed one after another.

Master Yu Cheng stepped forward: "Sir, are you here for that Master Wen?"

The county magistrate frowned: "Caught in the middle, in a dilemma!"

Yu Chengdao: "The King of Jin was just on a whim. Who doesn't know that the Jiang family rules the Qin Dynasty now?

Cooperation with Mr. Li is the long-term solution. "

"He is also a prince after all!" Li Hongrui sighed heavily.

This King of Jin now only has the title of Prince. He has no real power and no fiefdom. What is the use?

You understand the truth, but how do you fool it?

Yu Cheng smiled: "Sir, if Mr. Wen pleads guilty, won't this matter be over?"

Li Hongrui paused: "How to make him recognize me?"

"Master Wen is alone in Qingshan City, with no children. Seeing how he behaves, I threaten him with torture instruments and force him to confess first.

If the method is deceived in the name of meritorious service, shouldn't there be explanations from both ends?

On the one hand, he is provided with good food and drink, and on the other hand, he suffers from the pain of his flesh and blood. As a normal person, he knows which side to choose! "

Li Hongrui's eyes lit up.

King Jin's move was just to delay Mrs. Yu, but if Master Wen confessed...

Thinking of this, Li Hongrui stopped resting and waved his hand: "Bring Master Wen here!"

……

Old Man Gu lives in Daningfang in the west of the city. There is a street in front of the square where people come and go.

Lin Zhiyu and Zhou Zijin could only get off the carriage and walk.

Xiao He followed behind, not daring to lose even half a step: "Old man Gu lives here, so it is expected that something will happen."

Zhou Zijin glanced at her: "Why is this expected?"

Xiao He panicked for a moment and subconsciously took two steps in Lin Zhiyu's direction.

"A gambling den has been opened here, but it's not very clean anyway. Everyone is there, so accidents are normal."

Zhou Zijin frowned: "Then there is much to investigate about old man Gu's death?"

Xiaohe glanced at him quickly, then quickly lowered his head.

"That's what you say, but the people here are very cunning. If you can't find anything, you can just leave it there."

Lin Zhiyu: "The county magistrate of Qingshan City is really good at pinning the suspicion on an innocent person."

It's no wonder that spies from outside can work as officials here.

Seeing Xiao He's evasive eyes, Jiang Ye snorted, "What are you doing? My master won't eat you."

Xiaohe was about to cry but couldn't find any tears: "I have to digest what you told me."

What jade seal, what spy, every word, Xiao He felt that his head was a little more dangerous.

The houses in Daningfang were all very different in appearance, and the four of them were spinning around like headless flies, a little uncertain.

"How about we..."

Lin Zhiyu was about to say to go find someone to ask, but there was no one behind him except Xiao He.
