A square piece of white paper, with a large seal on the back, engraved with the eight characters "Ordered by heaven, you will live forever".
Zhou Lin is naturally familiar with these horoscopes.
Because these eight characters were engraved on the jade seal passed down from the country. In other words, this seal is the jade seal passed down from the country.
The jade seal handed down from the Xuan Dynasty has three major characteristics: it is indestructible to water and fire, visible at night, and transformed into a dragon. Among them, the invulnerability to water and fire is the reason why this piece of paper can be preserved in the fire.
"Sir, look quickly!" Zhou Lin quickly showed Xing Enming the side with the imperial seal.
Xing Enming was immediately shocked when he saw it!
Since the body of the burnt corpse has the seal of the national jade seal? Did he carry an imperial edict with him before his death?
The most common place where the jade seal of the Chuan Dynasty appears is the emperor's imperial edict, so when Xing Enming saw it, he immediately thought of this possibility.
But he quickly denied his speculation.
Imperial edicts are usually written on bright yellow silk cloth, but what was discovered now is a piece of white paper that was burned. Judging from the material, it should not be an imperial edict.
If not an imperial edict, what could it be?
Xing Enming frowned slightly. Generally speaking, except for imperial edicts, generally speaking, only important official documents that need to be seen by the emperor will have the seal of jade seal.
The only people who can carry such documents with them are people from the imperial court. And it is very likely that he is from the palace.
It seems that this matter must be reported to the emperor. Otherwise, if you want to find out,
Xing Enming thought for a while, and then ordered Zhou Lin to put the paper away, and he hurried into the palace to meet the saint.
After Xuan Ye heard the report, Long Yan was furious. However, after a statistical survey of all the officials in the capital and the chamberlains in the palace who had access to official documents, he found that no one in that position had suddenly disappeared recently.
"However, speaking of people who suddenly disappeared, wasn't there a local official who went to Beijing to report on his duties and disappeared in Guanyi?"
Xuan Ye said while flipping through the official demographic reports on the table.
"Yes. That is Min Lin, the outgoing magistrate of Lianping County, Bozhou Prefecture."
Xing Enming said that the case belonged to Gyeonggi Province, and according to its importance, it was not enough to alarm the Holy Master. Therefore, he did not report it to the emperor, and he did not know where the emperor heard it.
"If I remember correctly, the transfer documents issued by the Ministry of Personnel to local officials will also be stamped with the jade seal, right?"
"Yes……?!"
After Xuan Ye finished speaking, Xing Enming replied subconsciously, but as soon as he said these two words, he seemed to realize something, and his expression changed drastically.
"Your Majesty's intention, could it be..."
Xuan Ye nodded, and then said: "My dear, this case happened at the feet of the emperor. The victim was an official of the imperial court. The impact on Yao 9 is extremely bad. You must arrest the murderer as soon as possible."
"I understand." Xing Enming nodded.
"So, is it okay for half a month?" Xuan Ye said lightly. Although his tone was understated, the weight of his words was not light at all.
Xing Enming was silent for a moment, then suddenly knelt down in front of Xuan Ye, bowed his hands forward at the same time, and solemnly said: "I obey the order."
…
After returning from the palace, Xing Enming summoned Zhou Lin urgently.
"So, the Emperor suspects that the charred corpse belongs to Min Lin?" After hearing Xing Enming's words, Zhou Lin immediately spoke.
Xing Enming nodded, "Not bad."
"Min Lin disappeared three days ago. If the time is correct, it is correct." Zhou Lin thought for a while and nodded.
"When is the right time?" Xing Enming was slightly stunned.
Zhou Lin said: "Oh, I forgot to tell you. There was a corpse box over there. It said that the deceased's limbs were brutally broken, and he was starved to death for three days without a drop of water. Finally, he starved to death."
When Xing Enming heard this, he stood up from his seat in surprise.
"So, he wasn't burned to death?"
Zhou Lin shook his head, "Wu Zuo said that it was difficult for him to judge this matter. The deceased died of starvation and the estimated time of the fire were almost at the same time. It can be speculated that the murderer set the fire to burn him to death, but before that he had already I was starved for three days.”
Xing Enming was even more surprised.
Isn't this a terrible way to die?
What kind of hatred or resentment is there to reach this point?
For a long time, Xing Enming thought for a while and said: "The most urgent task now is to determine whether the charred corpse is the missing Min Lin. In addition, the emperor has given us half a month to solve the case. You go and find a way to confirm the identity of the charred corpse. I will lead someone." Let’s go to the fire scene to investigate and see if there are any missing clues.”
"Yes." After Zhou Lin said that, he and Xing Enming split into two groups to investigate the case.
At the same time, an imperial edict was sent out of Xuandu City Gate amidst the hurried hooves of the inner guards and headed straight towards the direction of the Barbarian Kingdom.
…
…
Langfeng had to admit that when she saw Xuan Xi appearing at the door of the carriage, she was extremely embarrassed.
The same goes for Xuan Xi.
She froze in front of the carriage and could not recover for a long time.
After finally solving the three philosophical questions, Gongsun immediately pulled him into the carriage before he could speak.
"Princess, please be patient."
Langfeng also came to his senses at this time and reacted very quickly to cover Xuan Xi's mouth first.
Xuan Xi struggled for a while and looked at them speechlessly.
Gongsun was also quite speechless.
In just such a short while, the image he had established in front of everyone was almost completely destroyed.
"Princess, this matter has nothing to do with me. She got into the car hiding in my book box."
He shook his head and betrayed Lang Feng without hesitation.
Langfeng was slightly startled.
At this moment, the carriage curtain was lifted again.
"Princess, Gongsun, what happened?"
Gongsun subconsciously turned around and saw Chen Yutian standing in front of the carriage.
His heart suddenly skipped a beat.
There is no doubt that Chen Yutian must have seen Langfeng at this time.
As expected, Chen Yutian said in surprise, "Princess Langfeng, why are you here?"
Langfeng also said with some embarrassment: "I have met Master Chen."
…
Outside the carriage, everyone was looking at Langfeng.
Langfeng felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.
Chen Yutian and the others were fine, at most they were a little helpless.
On the contrary, several seniors led by Ice King were looking at him as if they were looking at some rare species.
"Everyone, let's talk about what to do?"
Chen Yutian looked at everyone and asked.
Just now, he had told everyone the whole story.
"We are going back to Xuandu this time, and we are afraid that it will be inconvenient to bring a princess from the Barbarian Kingdom. Moreover, she ran out without the permission of the King Khan. If the Barbarian Kingdom thinks that we kidnapped the princess when we left, Then the hard-won peace between the two countries was completely ruined."
Xue Tianhan was the first to speak.
Langfeng's expression suddenly changed after hearing this.
Immediately afterwards, the rest of the people also spoke one by one, and their basic meanings were similar to Xue Tianhan's, that she must be sent back to the barbarian country.
In the end, only Gongsun was left without speaking.
Therefore, Langfeng kept looking at him with fiery eyes.
"I think..." Just as Gongsun was about to speak, a man and a horse were galloping towards him in the distance.
"The imperial edict has arrived!"
"Everyone in Jiulong Mansion accepts the order!"
