Empress is a sick beauty

Pick.The flower thief caused a lot of trouble in the city. The victims went to the government to report the case, and the magistrate immediately sent people to track it down, but they found nothing.The thief is still at large, and will have a new target in a few days.

Those who have young children are always in fear, fearing that the thief will stare at them.The prefect of Xu sent many yamen servants to investigate the matter, but they didn't even catch up with them.For a while, the magistrate's yamen fell into a stalemate, it was difficult to explain to the superior, and it was difficult to convince the public to the subordinate.Prefect Xu lost a lot of his hair, which is not much at all. If he can't solve the case, he can become a monk.

To this day, no one has seen Na Cai.The appearance of the flower thief, even the victim didn't see his appearance clearly, only knew that he was a man of short stature, and didn't know anything else.It is precisely because no one has seen his true face that this incident has been widely circulated, and it is miraculous.The storyteller in the teahouse, and the past guests in the restaurant, each of them said something different, and some people said that.The flower thief has three heads, six arms, three eyes, and eight legs. It can walk under the ground, so it cannot be caught.Some people even say that it is not a human being who does this, but a spirit from a mountain, who gathers supplements everywhere for the cultivation of exercises.

Ling Xi couldn't help laughing when he heard Ah Jiu telling these rumors. I'm afraid that if the case is not solved, the truth will spread more and more outrageous.

"It's just a gimmick put out by the storyteller to attract listeners, so don't take it seriously."

Ah Jiu hesitated, "But son, if he is human, how could he come and go without a trace?"

Ling Xi put down the book, "As long as you are good at kung fu, what's wrong with it? Especially lightness kung fu, plus magic. It's not difficult to do."

In the past, he could have personally investigated it, but now that he is in poor health, it is difficult to make a move.The magistrate's yamen doesn't know much about people in the Jianghu, so it is difficult to investigate and deal with them.But if Mr. Youyi was there, it might be a lot easier.Although I don't know the full strength of that person, as long as that person appears, it will bring a kind of inexplicable peace of mind.Even if he is not very familiar with him, he will feel reliable, and the reason for this is not clear even to himself.

Hearing what he said, Ah Jiu suddenly realized, "Young master's words are reasonable," after all, his young master was able to do this ability of disappearing without a trace.

"Young master, something has happened!"

Xiao Zhong ran into the house in a hurry, not caring about his panting, and hurriedly said, "My lord, that's Cai. The flower thief, he's after our Shen residence!"

Before Ling Xi could react, Ah Jiu raised her hips first, "What a shameless person! You actually set your mind on Shen Fu's head."

Ling Xi thought for a moment, and then told the two of them, "Tell the female relatives in the mansion as soon as possible, don't be alone these days, don't go out if you can't go out, and stay in the house with companions, everything will be done after the thief is caught."

He thought about it, there were no wives or young ladies in Shen's house, there were only a few young maids, the thief probably fell in love with someone when he was watching at the door.

However, the two people on the opposite side did not obey the order to convey the news, but they both looked at him and hesitated to speak.

Ling Xi was inexplicably looked at by them, "What's wrong with you?"

The two of you look at me, I look at you, and in the end it was the outspoken Ah Jiu who spoke.

"My lord, don't worry about those maids. This is Cai. The flower thief is most likely after you."

Ling Xi finally understood why the two of them looked like this, "The thief is... a broken sleeve?"

Ah Jiu curled her lips, "He is a bastard who doesn't mind meat and vegetables, and never refuses anyone. I forgot to tell you that the people who are murdered are not only rich ladies, but also young masters. As long as they look good, He doesn't let go."

"This person is really..." Ling Xi thought for a while, then remembered that he never swears, "It's really casual."

"That's right! He's an apprentice, a stinky bastard, a scum who kills a thousand knives!" Ah Jiu said angrily after taking the words.

Ling Xi nodded, "Yes, that's it. Does Big Brother know?"

Xiao Zhong hurriedly replied, "I knew it a long time ago. The eldest son has summoned the whole house to discuss countermeasures. Order the servant and Ah Jiu to guard you first."

At the same time, the atmosphere in the front yard was quite heavy, the guards lined up in two rows, Shen Rui frowned, and paced back and forth among them.

"A few of you, in a team of five, guard the entrance of the courtyard, the wall of the courtyard, and the door of the young master's room respectively. Guard day and night, and someone must be on top at any time."

"Yes!"

Shen Rui turned his back and said to the housekeeper, "The peach blossom branches are ready, go to the magistrate's yamen for the record." Even though he really didn't want to get involved with the magistrate, especially because there was Mr. Yi in the yamen, he couldn't care about it now, everything They must put their own brother's safety first.

The housekeeper held the peach blossom branch, nodded and said, "Your servant is going now."

Shen Rui sighed, "I don't expect the magistrate's yamen to do anything. If they could catch someone, they would have already caught him. But it's always good to be prepared."

"Ah!"

The magistrate Xu in the yamen was processing official documents in the backyard wing, when he suddenly sneezed and sneezed twice in a row.

"My lord, are you suffering from a cold?" the yamen servant asked like a dog's legs.

Prefect Xu rubbed his nose, "It's okay, go and get all the testimony about the case of the flower thief. I'll go through it from beginning to end and see if I can find any clues."

The yamen servant got the order, and Pidianpidian presented a stack of brochures.Each booklet contains the testimony of a victim, mostly explaining the situation on the night of the victimization and the days before and after the victimization.Pick.Before the flower thieves attack, they usually put three branches of peach blossoms at the door of the target. The three branches are tied together with a red string and tied with a bow.Whenever this mark is made, three days at the latest, the thief will definitely succeed.

Prefect Xu couldn't figure it out. How did he do it? He was able to complete this kind of thing without anyone noticing it under heavy control, and he could escape perfectly. Is there really such a skill in the world?

He was thinking hard, but Yunyi suddenly entered the door, he forgot everything when he saw the visitor, and immediately got up to greet him.

"I have seen Your Highness."

Yun Yi responded and saw Gong.The testimony spread on the case, "Still investigating. About the flower thief?"

When Xu Zhifu heard the words, his heart skipped a beat, and he was done thinking, wouldn't this ancestor come to question him because he thought he was not good at doing things?

"I'm still investigating, and will report to His Highness as soon as I have any clues."

Yun Yi didn't give any response, walked to the side of the grand master's chair and sat down, and the servant next to him hurriedly handed him hot tea.

"You don't have to report to me all the time. You are solely responsible for this case. Just settle it as soon as possible, and arrest Cai as soon as possible." He had other plans for this trip, but he didn't have the time for a small Cai.Thieves waste time.

When Xu Zhifu heard that he didn't want to intervene in this matter, he let go of his hanging heart a little, as long as this ancestor didn't come to question him, it would be better than anything else, "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will definitely close the case as soon as possible."

Yun Yi had just taken a sip of the tea in Yun Yi's hand when suddenly a yamen servant rushed to report.

"My lord, someone from outside came to file a record and said it was picking. The flower thief has a new move."

Xu Zhifu secretly glanced at Yun Yi, seeing that he ignored him, he continued to ask, "Which house is it?"

"Return to your lord, it's the Shen residence."

Hearing this, Yun Yi raised her eyes, "Which Shen residence?"

The yamen servant met his gaze, and suddenly stammered, "That's right, it's the Shen residence in the south of the city, and the head is Shen Rui, the chairman of the Yangzhou City Chamber of Commerce."

Before Xu Zhifu opened his mouth, Yun Yi said bluntly, "Bring people in."

"Yes!"

After a while, the housekeeper of Shen's residence was taken to the backyard wing room, he presented the three peach blossom branches, and euphemistically relayed Shen Rui's confession to Xu Zhifu.

After Xu Zhifu heard this, he didn't say a word, and looked in Yun Yi's direction from time to time.With this ancestor here, how can he have the part to speak.

Yun Yi gently turned the cup, and waited for the steward to finish what he had to say before opening his mouth, "Go back to the mansion and tell Mr. Shen that the magistrate's yamen has accepted the filing, and they will send people to the mansion to protect them in a few days, so as to ensure the safety of Shen's mansion. "

The butler had met Yun Yi several times before, and he also knew from his master that this was the prefect son.Facing the magistrate Xu, the butler was still a little embarrassed, but when he saw Yun Yi and remembered how he cared for the young master of the house, he became more courageous.

"Is Mr. Yi responsible for this case? That's really great. Our young master often mentions you."

Yunyi's hand turning the cup suddenly stopped, "He mentioned me? What did he mention me?"

The butler hurriedly smiled, he had only exchanged a few words to get close, but he didn't expect the other party to ask the bottom line, so he had to bite the bullet and make it up.Fortunately, he has not been a housekeeper for nothing all these years, and he has cultivated the ability to talk nonsense when he sees people and talks about people.

"The young master said that you are capable and talented, and you are a reliable friend. He also said that making friends with you is the happiest thing he has done in recent years. That's roughly the case. The slave is getting old, so I can't remember the exact words clearly."

Yun Yi put down the teacup, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "I am fully responsible for this matter, and I will personally go to the door to deploy."

The housekeeper thanked him again and again. He didn't know which words he said hit the other person's heart. The temperature in this room was much warmer. Anyway, it's right to keep saying good things.

On the other hand, Xu Zhifu, who was watching, was at a loss, unable to figure out the situation.Just now he looked completely disregarded, why did he suddenly take full responsibility?

"Dian..." Before the words came out, Zhifu Xu shut up because of Yun Yi's warning eyes.

Yun Yi turned to look at the housekeeper, "You don't need to report first, I will go back to Shen's residence with you."

The author has something to say: Little Theater

Prefect Xu: The matter of the flower pickers...

Yun Yi: You can handle it.

Housekeeper of Shen's House: It's not good, that thief has set his sights on my young master.

Yunyi: I'll go right away!
