Jia Kaicai had only left Xilin County for half a day when something happened. Lin Haoming knew that Liu Yuqing would never come after him for a trivial matter.
Seeing this, Lin Zhen could only watch Lin Haoming leave.
When he felt the county government, Liu Yuqing was already waiting for him at the Department of Internal Affairs. In addition to Liu Yuqing, Lin Haoming saw that Yi Lan and Yu Zhu were also there.
When Liu Yuqing informed him, Lin Haoming felt a little strange, because he called him to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, not his office.
"Master Liu, Mrs. Yi!"
Lin Haoming bowed politely, while Liu Yuqing waved his hand and said, "Lin Haoming, stop following so many rules."
"Sir, what is going on?" Lin Haoming asked.
"Yang Sheng and Kang Shu have both gone with you. Your Majesty told me that if anything happens, you have handled cases in the arrest department and can come to you. Of course you are also a trustworthy person!" Liu Yuqing said.
"Yuzhu!" At this time, Yi Lan called to Yu Zhu, and Yu Zhu stood guard outside the door, preventing anyone from getting close.
When Lin Haoming saw this situation, he became even more confused. Liu Yuqing said to Yi Lan, "Mrs. Yi, tell me!"
"Okay, Lin Haoming, Qiniang is missing!" Yi Lan said.
"What, my lord's sister is missing?" Lin Haoming said in surprise.
"Yes, Qiniang originally promised to come to see the master off, but she didn't come, so the master asked me to send someone to see what happened to Qiniang. Who would have thought that after searching for a long time, I couldn't find it, whether it was her residence or Xifeng Tower. There was no one, and finally the person sent by the master to protect Qiniang was found in an alley not far from the north gate, but he was already dead!" Yi Lan said.
"The person who protects Qiniang should be a Taoist monk, right?" Lin Haoming asked.
"Yes, and he is at the pinnacle of the Embryo Realm. He is proficient in fighting. The master found him from the garrison camp. He is capable of fighting even against ordinary Shinto realms!" Yi Lan said.
"When was the person found dead?" Lin Haoming asked.
"When the master left the city, the other party seemed to have timed it very accurately!" Liu Yuqing said.
Lin Haoming thought for a while and immediately said: "I'm afraid someone has been planning this matter for a long time. Madam Yi, I would like to ask how many people know about your Lord's departure today? By the way, I only found out about it in the morning. Yes. If the other party wants to make a plan, it is definitely not possible to know it today, at least it should be known the night before. "
"The master informed the two bosses and several other adults in the morning. Of course, Mr. Liu knew about it early in the morning. Besides the family members, you are the first to know!" Yi Lan said.
"Lin Tongshi, do you mean there is a ghost in the house?" Liu Yuqing asked in surprise.
"My lord is always careful when doing things. The two bosses in the county, Bo, have no intention of competing with you. Especially the right boss, Bo Fangchengyu, has been in this county for less than a hundred years. Although the training boss Bo is old, he is still in the local area. I don’t have a deep background in Xiancheng. Even if I fight Master Liu, it will be dangerous. I won’t jump out rashly. The two county lieutenants in the county are both in charge of the soldiers. There is no reason to attack the master’s sister, so I think it’s better to …”
"No need to explain. In fact, I thought the same way before you came. And I believe that if the other party knew about it early on, he would have carefully planned it and would not let us find out so early. At least he would not kill Qiniang's guards in a hurry, so This news was indeed leaked in advance, but not for long. The master had dinner with us last night, maybe that was the time!" Yi Landao said.
"So, we need to investigate several ladies. The master and the eldest lady are not here. Can we investigate this?" Liu Yuqing flinched a little at this time.
"Check, Qiniang is your only sister. If you come back and know that we are hesitant about this, I'm afraid you will blame us. This matter must be investigated! Lin Haoming, what do you think?" Yi Lan said.
By this time, Lin Haoming actually understood in his heart that Yi Lan had known the situation for a long time, and he was just a knife she used. It was not convenient for her to cause too much trouble among the sisters, so she let herself go ahead.
This woman is really scheming. No wonder Jia Kai asked her to take charge of the Internal Affairs Department, and Liu Yuqing is obviously an old fox.
Of course, now that I'm here, I can only move forward. If I can really get Qiniang back, I'm afraid I will have Jia Kai's complete trust, and then everything will be different.
"Mrs. Yi, if I really want to investigate, I hope you will support me!" Lin Haoming is not an idiot, so he naturally needs support.
"Don't worry about this, the eldest lady is not here, I have the final say in the back office!" Yi Lan said.
Seeing Yi Lan's tone, Lin Haoming felt that she had misunderstood her. It seemed that she really wanted to find out the results, but because she thought that this matter was related to Jia Kai's wives, she didn't want too many people to know.
"I have asked Li Wei, the deputy commander of the Internal Security Department, to guard the back office secretly. Li Wei is responsible for guarding the back office. Although he belongs to the eldest lady, the eldest lady is not here. Now he is completely at my disposal. Next, you follow Let me go." Yi Lan said.
"Yes!" Lin Haoming agreed, and then followed Yi Lan to Houya together with Liu Yuqing.
Jia Kai had one wife and four concubines, and his wife Liu Yunzhu had already left with Jia Kai, and she was the first person to know about this matter with Yi Lan, so this matter had nothing to do with her. Since Yi Lan allowed herself to be someone who was obviously very good at solving the case If a capable person comes to investigate this matter, he is obviously not the plotter, otherwise he would be shooting himself in the foot. Then the plotter, or at least the informant, is the other three concubines.
Lin Haoming had also seen Jia Kai's other three concubines, namely Mrs. Sun, Mrs. Huang and Mrs. Lu. When he saw them, Lin Haoming discovered that these three ladies, as well as the maids who accompanied the three ladies, were all They have gathered in a side hall, and there are wine and food on the table, but no one touches it.
In addition to them, there is also a team of female internal guards guarding here, the leader of which is a strong-backed woman, none other than Li Wei.
Lin Haoming had also met Li Wei before. When he first heard her name, he thought she was a beautiful woman. Unexpectedly, she turned out to be stronger than an average man. Of course, Lin Haoming could also see that this was related to her cultivation techniques and her natural physique. There is indeed real skill in his hands.
Lin Haoming hadn't officially handled the case yet, but Mrs. Huang couldn't bear it anymore and shouted: "Sister Yi, you asked Li Wei to bring us here since this afternoon. It's been almost two hours. What do you mean?"
"Even if Mr. Yi and Mrs. Yi are gone, you can't do this to us!" Mrs. Lu also agreed.
"Sister Yi, what's going on? Did something big happen?" Although Mrs. Sun also asked, her tone was much softer. However, all three of them questioned Yi Lan, which made Yi Lan look a little ugly.
