A total of eight people have been rescued so far.
Except for Xu Ming, who has been taken to Yang Lihua, the rest are all here, being guarded by people from the Ministry of Punishment.
They are not prisoners at the moment, but they are suspects. No one can leave until the case is clearly investigated.
Even the body of the maid has been put into a special freezer for autopsy by the Ministry of Punishments.
Since the emperor's grandson was involved, everyone who was rescued was under independent supervision and they were not allowed to see anyone.
Of course, except for Yang Ming, but even so, Yang Ming still needs to be present with someone from the Criminal Department before he can see anyone.
In a tent, Yang Ming met Yu Chiying.
This person was a close associate of Yang Xun. He had followed Yang Guang in the Sui Dynasty's battle to destroy Chen Dynasty, and he was considered an old man in the Jin Dynasty.
"what happened?"
Two quick guys from the Criminal Department brought stools to Yang Ming, then stood on both sides of the door, allowing Yang Ming to ask questions.
Yuchi Ying's physical condition is very good. The past few days in the coma in the mountains did not have any impact on him, but his mental state is very poor.
This is normal. If Yang Xian can't find it, he will definitely not be able to keep it in his head.
"When we return to the Third Master, the Second Master was invited by Miss Pei to go to Gaoguan Waterfall in Guifeng Mountain. We will return at noon and set up camp at a mountain col for dinner in the evening."
"At that time, Lao Liu hunted a deer and I was responsible for boiling water. About halfway through the meal, Xu Ming suddenly passed out without any warning. Xu Ming was a man with extraordinary martial arts skills and a foundation in qigong, so nothing would happen to him, so We knew then that something was wrong.”
"Immediately afterwards, the maids next to Miss Pei also fainted one after another. I didn't dare to be careless at that time, so I hurriedly escorted the second master to leave urgently. As a result, the second master also fainted before he had gone two miles."
"At that time, I could only carry the second master on my back and return north as fast as I could under the escort of Lao Liu and others."
"After running for less than two miles, Bei Zhi suddenly felt his whole body go weak, and lost consciousness in his hands and feet at the same time. He fell down under an old pine tree. Before losing consciousness, Bei Zhi saw Lao Liu taking Er Ye on his back and continuing back north. , but when I woke up, I found myself in a completely unfamiliar place."
"After I woke up, I didn't have time to think too much. I ran all the way to the north. It wasn't until I was discovered by the team searching the mountain that I realized that the second master was missing..."
As he spoke, this burly man in his forties actually lowered his head and began to sob.
Yang Ming asked coldly: "How was Miss Pei's condition at that time?"
"I don't know what my position is," Yuchi Ying said, "When the incident happened suddenly, I just wanted to take the second master away as soon as possible, and I didn't take into account Miss Pei's situation at all."
"Then before you passed out, besides Lao Liu, who else was with the second master?" Yang Ming asked again.
Yuchi Ying said: "No more. I only saw Lao Liu. I think the others had already fainted on the way."
Ma Laoliu was originally Yang Guang's personal bodyguard and was born in Buddhism. After Yang Guang was transferred to Jiangdu, Lao Liu stayed in Daxing Jin Palace and followed Yang Ming out this time.
But after Yang Jian suffered a loss at the East Palace camp that night, he asked Lao Liu to follow him. After all, Lao Liu's martial arts cultivation was not comparable to Zhang Mu's.
Yang Ming asked some more questions, and Yuchi Ying answered them honestly.
Next, Yang Ming went to other camps to ask questions one by one.
The results of the inquiry were generally consistent with what Yu Chiying described.
This is very strange...
Pang Ben asked for a tent from the Ministry of Justice to temporarily accommodate Yang Ming and others.
In the tent, Yang Ming and others gathered around the campfire and began to list some doubts about Yang Lan's disappearance.
"His Highness also said just now that the place where Yuchi Ying fainted is different from the position where he woke up. So...he was moved after he fainted,"
Chen Shuyi pointed to the topographic map drawn by Pang Ben on the ground and said: "Xu Ming was the first to faint, but the place where he was found was near the nunnery temple in Niu'er Mountain. The situation was the same as that of Yuchi Ying. According to other Judging from the people’s descriptions, they were all moved around after they fell into coma, and the distance was very far.”
"From this point of view, the perpetrator is not one person, but many. Otherwise, it would be impossible to throw the people so far apart."
Yang Ming nodded and didn't say anything, but let them discuss it.
Pang Ben also said at this time: "The most puzzling thing about this humble position is that General Ma can actually do it? He is the personal bodyguard of His Highness the King of Jin. He participated in the battle to invade Jiankang. He is famous in the army and is a Buddhist monk." He is not afraid of magic, magic or drugs due to his background, so it can be seen that the person who did it is definitely an ordinary person.”
"Lao Liu has never been in trouble in his life. In the battle to destroy the Chen Dynasty, he did not lose against Xiao Mohe on the battlefield. Unexpectedly, the boat capsized in the sewer during this year's spring outing..." Xu Jing and Ma Lao Liu were very happy. Familiar, I couldn't help but sigh.
Yang Ming knew Ma Laoliu well. After all, he was able to be placed in Daxing by his father to take charge of the palace, which showed that he was very capable and resourceful.
If something can happen to him, how capable should the person who does it be?
"Have you ever thought about it..." Chen Shuyi suddenly said: "At present, it seems that the perpetrators did not kill everyone, but just knocked people unconscious and scattered them away. In other words, their purpose was not to harm people. "
Yang Ming glanced sideways at the other party and said, "Second brother and Miss Pei haven't been found yet, so don't draw conclusions prematurely."
Chen Shuyi was stunned and looked into Yang Ming's eyes in surprise. She was shocked in her heart and lowered her gaze involuntarily.
I don’t know why, but whenever Yang Ming is serious, Chen Shuyi always feels a palpitation in her heart.
He is only twelve years old...
In fact, Yang Ming also preferred that Yang Xian was still alive. After all, the murder of the emperor's grandson was a huge event in the Sui Dynasty.
He didn't think anyone would have the guts.
"Pang Ben, please send someone to the Pei family camp to find out the origins of the servants accompanying Miss Pei this time."
"I accept my order from my humble position!"
Yang Ming turned to Xu Jing again and said, "Have you checked out all the people around the second master?"
"Returning to the master," Xu Jingcheng nodded and said, "I have asked you clearly. They are all old people from our Prince Jin's palace. There is no question about their identity. The prince is very thoughtful and unreliable will never be placed next to the second master."
That's the truth... Yang Ming nodded in agreement. Dad's work is still very reassuring.
So who is it? Do you have the guts to kidnap the crown prince at the foot of the imperial city?
What is the purpose?
The camp was still lively at night, with the sound of mules and horses and the constant shouting.
Yang Ming lay on the couch to rest with his eyes closed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
Chen Shuyi, on the other hand, was resting her head on the bedside, listening to her breathing, she must have fallen asleep.
After receiving training from Yeting Palace, Princess Jiuchen has gradually put down her pretense as a princess and become more and more accustomed to her current status.
midnight,
The loud cheers outside the camp woke up Yang Ming who had just fallen asleep.
When he walked out of the tent, the surprise on Yang Ming's face suddenly turned into surprise...
Far to the south, a team of hundreds of people was like a fiery dragon, returning towards the camp in the night.
Yang Jian was found,
Also found was Pei Shuying.
