Chapter 126 Clues, ships, Wen Huan Xu Qing

No one knows what Li Linghuai was crazy about. After returning to Yixing County yesterday afternoon, he went to Yixing County inexplicably today. The governor of a state. As long as he doesn't hide his words and deeds, he will definitely be paid attention to. It can be said that he lives in a big web. However, he is not a spider, but a flying insect that can crawl on the web. However, every time he walks, it will touch the spider strings and attract the attention of countless pairs of eyes.

He knew it naturally, but he had no intention of explaining what he could do even if he was seen. Even the servant didn't tell the truth, but simply explained that the servant was the coachman and didn't even call the guard, so he went to Yixing County.

...

Yixing County, County Prison.

When the prefect of the county magistrate Wei Hui received the news, the prison guards of the county jail knelt in front of him, with a panic expression and answered his question: "...I don't know why the envoy Li suddenly returned again, but after Li passed by, he expelled us all. Is it..."

"What did the envoy know?" Wei Hui was also unsure of his mind. In his original intention, he was unwilling to use this matter to threaten Wang Ningzhi, but he could not destroy the corpses placed in the county prison. Otherwise, there might be a letter to sue him for destroying the evidence, and he could not bear it... He did not pay much attention to those corpses, and most of them were burned to black charcoal, which could not be compared. As for why Li Linghuai suddenly returned to expel the prison guards and thoroughly investigated the bodies, he was also confused.

Wei Hui did not delay and hurriedly followed the prison guards. At noon, she was sweating all over when she walked. The county prison where people didn't often come was even more desolate, so the roadside was overgrown with weeds and garbage piled up. He frowned. He had just a few days ago.

As soon as I got closer, I looked around and saw that there were not only the expelled jailers outside, but also a large number of soldiers in armor, warning the sanitation to be on the periphery of the county jail.

The prison guards were all outside. When they saw Wei Hui coming, they hurriedly gathered around and told him about the situation here.

Not long after Li Linghuai arrived, a team of soldiers rushed over and controlled the scene and did not allow the jailers to approach... Wei Hui walked over, looked at one of the leaders of the soldiers, and said, "What did the envoy Li find inside?"

"We don't know this, we just received an order to protect the county prison." The leader was very polite. Although he was neither humble nor arrogant in the face of the county magistrate, he still had the respect he should have.

Although Wei Hui didn't know what these soldiers were from, she could roughly guessed that they should be the soldiers guarding Yangzhou: "Can I go in?"

"...Yes." He looked around and waved his hand, freeing a passage for Wei Hui to walk in.

Like the county prisons in Kuaiji County, Yixing County prisons are not often used, so they are very abandoned. You can smell a faint stench when you walk in... Wei Hui remembers the smell of corpses. Although there is a way to preserve the corpses at this time, the stench of the corpses is still inevitable. He covered his nose with his sleeves, and walked in and soon saw Li Linghuai.

Li Linghuai squatted there, with a corpse under his feet. The treated corpse and the fire were burned by the fire, and it was no longer clear that it was originally in sight. However, what Li Linghuai was concerned about was obviously not the appearance of the corpse. Seeing Wei Hui coming in, he smiled slightly and said, "Chengxian, it's just right. I have found the clue... this corpse."

"This corpse... I'm sorry, I don't know what I've discovered in the eyes of the envoy Li?" Wei Hui did not approach, obviously not feeling the corpse. "I can't see the face clearly, how can I tell the envoy?"

"Clothes." Li Linghuai stood up and pointed out his fingers at the two bodies. "This one is only a small part of this one, but in terms of fabric, it is at least not a civilian, so it doesn't matter if he can't see his face clearly. In terms of body shape, this one does not match any of the Xu family, and the other one-"

Li Linghuai opened his palms and a small ornament lay inside.

"That's the clue!"

...

Many rivers run through Kuaiji County, reunite into the Qiantang River, and finally enter the sea from the Qiantang River. These are mostly unknown rivers, which can only be used for small boats to sail.

Outside the county town, several tall elm trees are close to each other, with lush branches and leaves, blocking the sun. In the shade, a ox cart and a small group of guards are parked.

The ox cart is decorated very beautifully. It looks like it is not an ordinary family at first glance. It is parked quietly under the tree and no one gets out of the car. The guards were talking in a low voice, as if waiting for someone. Not long after, another ox cart drove over from a distance, which was very fast and was escorted by the guards. After the ox cart approached, the ox cart parked here was finally lifted up with a curtain, revealing two faces, one big and one small.

The big one is so charming that it is so charming that people dare not look directly at; the small one is a cowardly face, but also beautiful.

"Are people coming?"

Yu Nanzi asked, and saw the ox cart on the opposite side slowly approaching, the driver got off the car. It was the person he knew. If he remembered correctly, it was Wang Ningzhi's unit named Chen Quan, so he nodded at him.

Chen Quan came over: "Thank you for providing the ship, I don't know..."

"There is no one around. I have sent someone to expel the people around me. As for Li Linghuai, he has gone to Yixing County this year. If you have a good eyewitness, Shuping Langjun should have known it." Yu Nanzi looked up at the ox cart opposite and waved his hand, "Don't hesitate, let that person get on the boat as soon as possible. Anyway, I am only responsible for this part. Langjun said I don't need to look for someone to pick me up..."

Chen Quan nodded in response and walked to the ox cart opposite and knocked it. After a moment, a tall man was helped by a maid and walked out. His steps were still a little staggering, but his speed was very fast. He lowered his head, making people unable to see his appearance. He followed the boatman on the boat and looked back when he was about to enter the tent. It seemed that the maid was talking to him. After a moment, the maid let go of him and walked towards Yu Nanzi.

Without getting close, he knelt down at some distance, and said in a crying voice: "Wen Huan must remember the kindness of her daughter and dare not forget each other."

After saying that, without waiting for Yu Nanzi to respond, he resolutely turned around and the boat. There were only two guards who were traveling with him, which happened to be the number of people the boat could ride. After everything was arranged, as the sound of the water flow sounded, the boat left the shore and sailed towards the unknown distance.

The guards were ready to go back noisily.

Yu Nanzi put down the curtain of the car and stared at the little girl who was riding with him. Somehow, the little girl's eyes turned red and she cried. She seemed to lower her head to avoid being seen by Yu Nanzi.

With a smile, Yu Nanzi's eyes fell on the little girl, as if she didn't know her reaction, and said, "When you enter the Xu family, you must abide by the rules. I like beautiful things, so you have to give a good name first, but you have to say goodbye to the past. You said your name is Yin'er, Yin'er Yin'er, unknown, since that's the case--"

"From now on, your surname will be Xu, and you will change your name to Qing'er. How about it?"
