Lin Youxie has a special identity.
She is the only remaining descendant of the four major Qingpai families.
The four once-famous Qingpai families were the earliest core of the Qingpai system. Flying across the Eastern Region with the green card, hunting down lawbreakers, capturing all thieves, and becoming famous!
Today, the Capital Inspection Office is the absolute core of the Qingpai system. The captain of Bei Ya was personally ordered by the emperor to take charge of the counties to catch the heads. His words and deeds truly represented the will of the entire Qingpai system. With a low official rank, he became the core of power in Linzi City.
Lin, Li, Wu and Cheng, these four glorious surnames have been eclipsed in the torrent of history.
The only remaining strong men in the divine realm, Uriel and Li Yougui, died one after another.
If the former dies, he still has the honor to make up for it. The latter died, but suffered the consequences.
The last afterglow of the Qingpai family disappeared with it.
As the orphan of the famous arrester Lin Kuang, Lin Youxie also chose to leave Qi after Feng Gu's case and went to the Sanxing Palace for further study.
Jiang Wang couldn't help but think too much about her loss of contact.
So why did he come to Beiya in person, and why did he look into Zheng Shangming's eyes.
Of course he understood that with the current situation of Emperor Qi, it was completely possible to accommodate Lin Youxie who abandoned the country. Even though Ru Li, the descendant of the Qingpai family, felt guilty, he already deeply hated Qi Ting and believed that the Jiang Dynasty had failed the Qingpai family. Even Lin Youxie, the only remaining descendant of the Qingpai family, has a high chance of becoming a weapon of public opinion in other countries.
Since Emperor Qi has given Lin Kuang and Wu Lie honorable names, he will not do anything to Lin Youxie again. He is the son of Qingshan, and he will not be obsessed with the ruthlessness in this corner.
But Jiang Wang had no confidence in the Queen of Daqi.
After all, he was a big shot who dared to commit murder under the emperor's eyes and started to eliminate all clues in the past. After all, she could do it, leaving a father's body in front of his young daughter.
Whether he is decisive or ruthless, what Jiang Wang thinks in his heart is that he is not like the mother of the country.
Of course, it is unusual for the current queen to be able to secure her position as the head of the harem in the Da Qi court. She has stood firm for many years, gained the respect of the emperor, and is extremely respected and loved by both the government and the public.
What Jiang Wang saw was just the tip of the iceberg.
It was just this corner that made him feel cold...
Zheng Shangming quickly made tracing Lin Youxie's whereabouts a priority for the inspection office. Among the many disappearance cases, it was given the highest priority.
Then he said to Jiang Wang: "Go sit in my room and talk about this matter in detail."
Judging from Zheng Shangming's performance, he should be unaware of Lin Youxie's disappearance, and he even had some uneasy speculations.
But the green police officers are all very sensitive, and Zheng Shangming has a family background. Jiang Wang was not sure of his judgment.
So he just said calmly: "Okay."
The two quickly left the Beiya Hall and came to the room where Zheng Shangming worked independently.
The room layout is very simple.
A scroll of portraits of the magical beast Haechi is hung on the front wall, with vivid brushstrokes and majestic aura.
In front of this huge portrait is a desk filled with files. There are only two chairs in the sixteen-foot-square room, one in front of the desk and one behind the desk.
The wall on the right side of the desk is completely blank, while the wall on the left is covered with various drawings. Some paintings depict people, while others depict crime scenes, all of which are detailed and realistic, as if they were present at the scene.
Speaking of which, painters also have their own biases in contemporary scholarship. For example, most painters from the Taoist and Confucian schools focused on freehand brushwork. The painters of Art of War Mo put more emphasis on realism. The Buddhist painters, on the other hand, do not have a fixed impression, they are all miscellaneous, with paintings of all kinds.
Of course, this is not absolute, but the mainstream style is roughly the same.
Bai Gexiao, the dean of Qingya Academy, painted a long scroll called "A River Comes into the Brightness of Thousand Flowers for the First Time". Thousands of flowers are different and each shows their beauty. It is still regarded as the pinnacle of the realistic style.
But the painters of Qingya Academy have always been able to express their feelings to everyone.
Let’s talk about Zheng Shangming.
His painting skills are quite average, not good or bad, at least Mr. Jiang can't appreciate them and can't figure out why. You can only see the care put into each stroke, and there are pieces of paper stuck to the corners of the painting, filled with notes.
The effort he put into handling the case is very clearly reflected in these tangible details.
Zheng Shangming closed the doors and windows, stretched out his hand and said, "Sit down."
He strode to the desk and packed the files quickly. Classified into categories, detailed and organized.
It's hard to imagine that he once hated Qingpai's job so much.
Now he sat down in front of the long desk, and after collecting all the files, there was an undisguised heaviness between his brows. After pondering for a moment, he asked, "Brother Jiang, when was the last time you saw Lin Youxie?"
"At the beginning of May, in Lushuang County." Jiang Wang said clearly: "At that time, she said that she was going to Sanxing Palace for further study. After that, there was no further contact. Until a while ago, when I came back from my mission to the grassland, I wrote to Sanxing Palace, asked her some questions. As a result, the letter was returned intact, saying that this person was not found."
"Is there any misunderstanding at Sanxing Palace? I mean, is it possible that she is studying in some important place, or that ordinary Sanxing Palace disciples don't know that she went to Sanxing Palace?" Zheng Shangming continued to ask. road.
"Probably not. But I have asked someone to confirm again." Jiang Wang said.
Zheng Shangming said: "Okay. I will mobilize capable Qingpai to trace the whereabouts, and I will also focus on searching from Lushuang County. The intelligence network of the Qingpai system will not be retained. But you still need to be mentally prepared. Time has passed so much. For a long time, it is difficult to trace the traces in Lushuang County. This is probably a long-term process..."
Jiang Wang just said: "Then I'll trouble you."
"No trouble, no trouble." Zheng Shangming waved his hand and hesitated.
Jiang Wangdao: "Brother Shang Ming, you might as well speak up if you have something to say."
Zheng Shangming was silent for a moment, and then said: "If..."
After hesitating for a while, he continued: "Have you ever thought about what you are going to do?"
He didn't say "if" anything, but both parties understood.
After all, the death case of the chief eunuch Feng Gu Shen that was launched in the Changsheng Palace was an investigation started by the two of them and Lin Youxie.
They were all well aware of all the changes that had occurred during this period. They are sure of the important clues in the case. It was also in this case that it was confirmed that they had different views and could not become close friends.
That huge shadow never shrouded only Lin Youxie.
It's just that some people die, some stay silent, and some do what they can.
'If Lin Youxie is really killed by the current queen, just like her dead father and dead Grandpa Ulie, have you ever thought about what you would do? '
This is the question that Zheng Shangming failed to really ask.
This issue is too serious and too serious.
So Jiang Wang thought seriously for a moment and then said slowly: "Before the result is confirmed, I don't know what I will do."
He may have another answer in mind, but he doesn't need to tell Zheng Shangming, and he won't tell Zheng Shangming either.
But even this answer still silenced Zheng Shangming.
Faced with such a terrifying and huge shadow, how can your answer be "I don't know"?
I don’t know, which means there is still a huge possibility of impulsiveness.
However, in the face of such an existence, how can you be impulsive? If the emperor is the sun, then the queen is the bright moon, and the rest are just stars, no matter how dazzling they are. You are the youngest military meritorious prince in Qi State, so what can you do? !
But Zheng Shangming also understood.
This is where Jiang Wang differs from him.
So he remained silent.
After a long time, he managed to calm down: "I don't think so. We just can't get in touch now. There are too many possibilities in this matter, and I don't think we will encounter the worst possibility so easily. "
Jiang Wang said: "Yes. Maybe she was just tired of Qi State and wanted to alienate me as an old friend, so she wandered around the world in silence. This is not something difficult to understand."
"This is very likely." Zheng Shangming also tried to keep his tone as relaxed as possible: "The Lin Captou I know is the kind of person who doesn't show it on the outside, but has great ideas in his heart. Maybe he will travel far away and make history in the world. And practice the law.”
People with green cards hanging around their waists are really not suitable for making optimistic speculations. Because they often start from the worst-case scenario.
The two of them were silent for a moment.
"Shang Ming." Jiang Wanghu said.
"Say." Zheng Shangming looked at him.
Jiang Wang's voice was extremely serious: "It can be fruitless, but you can't lie to me."
Zheng Shangming paused and nodded seriously: "I understand."
He knew very well that if he deceived Jiang Wang this time, he would not even be able to be ordinary friends in the future.
So he acted very cautiously.
However, what he knows better is...
If necessary, he will.
This "necessary" refers to the will of the current Emperor Qi.
This was the path he had chosen long ago.
Apart from that, he is willing to do his duty as a friend.
It can be said to be a kind of tragedy that we have to talk about the duty of a friend under such restrictions.
However, who has been working hard as a mediocre person, how can he have the right to say "I don't know what I will do"? He is different from Jiang Wang. He must know what he will do, he must understand what he can and cannot do.
These necessities are not the necessities of being a human being.
But it is necessary for the position of [Beiya Captain].
Zheng Shi has stood firm for many years. After leaving office, his experience was nothing more than "loyalty to the emperor".
…
…
The light turns like a shuttle, and the shadows of the sun fly.
Three full days have passed since the delegation from the Capital Inspection Office.
It has been confirmed again that the three palaces of punishment, Guitian Palace, Judi Palace, Xingren Palace, and the three Dharma Palaces do not have Lin Youxie. Lin Youxie has never been to Tianxing Cliff.
There was even a real person from the Judi Palace in the Sanxing Palace named Zhuo Qingru who personally responded to a letter to confirm the matter with Jiang Wang.
The letter also confirmed that there was indeed a quota for the true successor in the Judi Palace, and Daqi Ming had been promised to arrest Uriel in recognition of his innovation in autopsy methods. Later, this quota was transferred by Ulie to a person named Lin Youxie.
But Lin Youxie never reported to Sanxing Palace.
For Jiang Wang, what this news confirmed was that Lin Youxie indeed had the possibility of going to Sanxing Palace, which was in line with the plan Lin Youxie described when they separated.
It can be inferred from this that Lin Youxie's disappearance was most likely against her own wishes.
In other words, something might have happened to Lin Youxie...
As for Beiya, after three full days of investigation, no useful information was received.
With Qi Guoqingpai's powerful intelligence capabilities, there was no trace of Lin Youxie at all. Since May, she seems to have completely disappeared from this world.
"Wharf, border counties, overseas. We have sent people to check them all... If Capt. Lin is determined not to let anyone find her, with her ability, she can do it."
In the Marquis Wu'an Mansion, Zheng Shangming considered his words and said slowly: "I mean, maybe there is such a possibility."
"Okay, I understand, I'm sorry to bother you these two days." Jiang Wang stood up and said.
Zheng Shangming had no choice but to stand up: "Beiya will not give up tracking. I will notify you as soon as there is news."
"Okay. Hard work." Jiang Wang said calmly.
Zheng Shangming looked at him, but finally couldn't say anything, so he said goodbye.
Specifically in this matter, did Zheng Shangming carefully find someone? They must have searched carefully, and even spread the network overseas.
But even Qingpai, who has poor case handling skills like Jiang Wang, knows that to investigate a missing person, he must start with two clues.
One is the movement trajectory of the missing person, and the other is the social relationship of the missing person.
Zheng Shangming went to check the docks, border counties and overseas.
Does he dare to investigate the Tian family, which has huge suspicions? Does he dare to check the queen's place?
Not to mention a thorough investigation, Zheng Shangming couldn't even extend it a little in that direction.
Jiang Wang didn't mean to demand Zheng Shangming to explore that terrifying shadow. He just understood after three days of waiting that this was all Zheng Shangming could do.
It is true that Lin Youxie's disappearance may not necessarily be related to the current queen. So far, there is no clue that can connect them together. But with such a natural black wall standing there, Zheng Shangming didn't even dare to look over there, so it was destined to be impossible to find out anything.
So he just said thank you and said nothing else.
The use of Qingpai's power ends here.
Even if he goes to Yang Weitong, the newly appointed captain of Beiya, it will not be any different from Zheng Shangming coming forward.
Jiang Wang didn't give himself any time to hesitate or feel lost. He said goodbye to Zheng Shangming and went out alone.
Without any cover, he flew towards Lushuang County.
It was difficult for him to hide it from the eyes of interested people in Qi State, so he simply made his attitude clear directly - he wanted to find Lin Youxie personally.
It is true that his ability to find traces is ordinary, and he can even be said to be a complete layman.
But besides him, who else would go to Lin Youxie before the black wall that could be reached?
Besides himself, who else dares to take it seriously and try his best for it?
The last time I met Lin Youxie was in an inaccessible dense forest in Lushuang County. At that time, I came here because I was looking for Fourteen.
He asked Lin Youxie for help for Zhongxuansheng, and Lin Youxie agreed without saying a word. As expected, he was the first to find the person without any clues, and pulled the almost collapsed Zhongxuansheng out of the sea of misery. .
Now that Lin Youxie is missing, who can find her?
Walking through the dense forest, you will be startled by the flying birds.
The cry is hoarse and noisy.
Today I visited my old place again and saw thin trees with yellow leaves, quite different from the old days.
The clearing is still there, and the two horizontal branches facing each other are still there.
It's just that the open space is filled with residual leaves, and the horizontal branches are bare and thin...
They all seemed lonely.
Jiang Wang thought to himself that it was because of the autumn weather.
