Chapter 379

The constable had rich experience in investigating cases. He looked at the names of the two men and said, "Yang Ming went to the Yamen with a public certificate to seal his seal. As for Li Qi, he didn't have one."

"How does the constable know?" Xiao Tuo asked.

"because the family Cao is sick these days, just a job is just no task, the adults have transferred to the office of the humble registered residence, humble duty is very sure, no cover Li Qi, and, you see, this Li Qi's public inspection yesterday was only to the Yamen to cover, yesterday happened, how can he not remember? What's more, it says here that he's from Zhangzhou, and he has to go through seven prefectures all the way to Beijing, but he has only three prefectures' seals, which means that his public examination is forged. Why did he forge it? Because he is a native, all foreigners must have a public experience, only the native people do not. "

Xiao Tuo immediately asked the shopkeeper, "do you remember Li Qi's appearance?"

"Yes, yes." The shopkeeper's company is busy.

"The second child also said:" I remember

Liuyue heard, "is this the one who lives next door to me? I remember. I met him twice

"That's good. Ask the painter to draw his face right away." Xiao Tuo said.

Liu Yue said, "why bother? I'll do it myself. "

Recently, her painting attainments have improved, which can be verified.

"You?" Xiao Tuo looked at her incredulously.

"Of course."

Small two Zhangluo good study, flow month recalled that person's appearance, a stroke of the pen.

A moment later, she picked up the scroll and handed it to Xiao Tuo. Xiao Tuo looked at it, frowned, and then showed it to the shopkeeper and sophomore, "like it?"

Shopkeeper's and small two Zheng for a while, shake head together, "unlike."

Liuyue snatched it back and said angrily, "what's not like? I look like. "

The shopkeeper said: "the eyebrows are not so black, the face is not so square, and the eyes are not so big."

Xiao Tuo was speechless and said to the constable, "go and invite the painter. I'll go back and report to the prince first, and then we'll meet at the princess mansion."

Liuyue tidies up her things and looks at the portrait again. It's not really like that. Then she follows Xiao Tuo in a gloomy way.

Xiaoer and the shopkeeper naturally have to go back. Three people have seen the thief. This portrait should be very accurate.

When Xiao Tuo and others returned to the palace of King Liang, they had already moved to the palace of princess, so they had to go to the palace again.

Murong Jie and Zi an heard that the blood antelope's horn was gone, and they changed their color.

As soon as he asked about the situation, Su Qing came with Xia Lin, who also brought yuan Cuiyu. Yuan Cuiyu accompanied him and wanted to visit the princess.

"Since someone has seen the thief, let's call her Cui Yu to paint. She must be better than the painter," he said

Murong Jie looked at his mother-in-law, "what do you mean?" He knew that she had not painted for a long time, and he did not know whether she would like to.

Yuan Cui's heart knot has been untied for a long time. She said, "yes."

Seeing her promise, Prince an quietly breathed a sigh of relief. He always hoped that she could paint again, because it meant that she had abandoned the sad things in the past.

Yuan Cuiyu asked three people about Li Qi's appearance, but they all said something different.

Murong Jie frowned and said: "it's clearly a person. Why do you say it differently? How can the county master draw this? "

Yuan Cui language smile, "it doesn't matter, fusion is."

In fact, what the three people said was the same, but there was something wrong with their expression. Yuan Cuiyu used to paint portraits for a period of time. Although he had no animation pen for a long time, he was not unfamiliar with it.

She sketched out an outline with a few strokes, and the outline was certainly correct, because the three people all said that it was Guozi face, eyebrows, eyes, nose, lips. The three people said that there were differences, which means Liuyue said that his eyes were very big, but Xiaoer said that it was not very big, because he met many people every day, and he must have seen many people with big eyes, so he recognized it For this Li Qi's eyes are not particularly big. After

was as like as two peas, Xiao Tuo gave the portrait to Xiao and three in front of them. The three people were terrified and pointed to the portrait: "yes, it is him."

Liu Yue was shocked by Yuan Cui's words. She adored her way: "you haven't seen him. How can you draw like this?"

Yuan Cui language smile, "but mortals, is two eyes, a nose, a mouth, just different sizes, draw not strange."

Xiao Tuo handed the portrait to the constable, and Murong Jie ordered, "even if you dig three feet, you should find this man out quickly."

"Yes, Lord!" The constable took orders and left.

Murong Jie personally ordered that the Yamen did not dare to neglect. In addition to the yamen, there were also patrolling guards. We must find this man in a short time.

Sure enough, there was news the next day.

The constable arrested the man, and Liuyue recognized him at a glance, "it's him!"

There was a wound on his face, which should have been punished. The constable reported: "Mr. Wang, his name is Zhang Qi. He is an exile in the city. He has confessed that he stole the blood antelope horn, but he has given the blood antelope horn to the person who ordered him.""Who made you steal the blood antelope horn?" Murong Jie asked coldly.

Zhang Qi knelt on the ground and pleaded for mercy. "Lord, I'm just a money collector, and I don't know him. The day before yesterday, he found me and gave me a public certificate. I asked him to come to Yuelai Inn and steal the antelope horn from the next room. When it's done, I can give him 100 Liang silver. I'm greedy for money and agreed."

"Who is the one who instructs you?" Murong Jie didn't seem to hear his explanation and asked coldly.

"The villain said that he didn't know him. He came to the door by himself." Zhang Qi defends a way.

Murong Jie slowly raised his head, his lips touched with cold, "take him into the prison, first cut off his fingers, if still don't say, then cut off his toes one by one."

"Yes

Zhang Qi was so scared that he kowtowed again and again, "Lord, please forgive me. I really don't know. I haven't seen this man before. Please forgive me."

"Take it down!" Murong Jie said sternly.

Xiao Tuo immediately drags Zhang Qi down. Zhang Qi turns back to beg for mercy. It seems that he is really wronged.

Liu Liu couldn't bear it and said, "Lord, maybe he really doesn't know."

Murong Jie did not speak, Liu Yue said: "this grandson must know that he is lying."

Liu Liu asked, "how do you know he's lying?"

Liu Yue snorted: "it's obvious at a glance. If he doesn't know this man, why is Gongyan only one word different from him? It can be said that the forger knew him early and knew his name. Of course, this can be said that the other party knew him, but he didn't know him. However, his eyes were evasive, his face was guilty, and it was clear that he had something to hide. I think people are very accurate. I can't be wrong about this. I believe the Lord thinks the same way. "

Murong Jie nodded and looked at Liuyue admiringly. "That's right. It seems that the leader of the salt gang really deserves his reputation."

Zian laughs. These big people are very forced in their private lives, but they are more and more serious.
