It took less than a stick of incense with the shopkeeper to draw portraits of two Japanese people who had been to Prince Wanyan's Mansion many times, had a close relationship with Wanyan Ping's aunt, and hooked up with Wanyan Aoki.
"Miss, the Duke, and the Marquis, please take a look." He put down the pen in his hand, dried the ink stains on the paper, held the portrait to Shen Cha, and said, "This is what the two Japanese look like. "
"Thanks for your hard work."
Shen Cha took the two portraits, glanced at them, and handed them to Xue Ruitian next to him. After they finished reading, they exchanged glances with each other.
"It looks similar, but I've only seen it once, so I'm not sure." Shen Haolin thought about it, "Are Xiaoyun and Xiaojiu responsible for this?"
"Yes." Shen Cha nodded and waved to Ying Wuyi next to him, "Xiao Wu, go see Xiaoyun and Xiaojiu who are not busy, and ask them to come over."
"Yes." Ying Wu responded and left in a hurry. After a while, he came back with Song Qiyun who was sweating profusely. "My lord, boss, the prince is here."
"Marshal, deputy marshal, general!" As soon as Song Qiyun saw the outsider, he immediately saluted, then poured a bowl of tea, drank it and wiped his mouth, "What do you want to see me for?"
"There are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be so polite." Xue Ruitian waved his hand and handed the two portraits to Song Qiyun, "Let's see if you have seen these two people before. Do you think they look familiar?"
"What looks familiar?" After hearing that there were no outsiders, Song Qiyun looked at the shopkeeper curiously, raised his eyebrows slightly, took the two portraits, looked at them carefully, and frowned slightly, "These two people... …”
"How's it going? Did I say that right? You must have seen it before."
"Hmm..." Song Qiyun thought for a while, "Are you sure the painting is correct?"
"That's right."
"Then..." Song Qiyun touched his chin, "Did these two people... did Xiaojiu and I kill them?"
"Like it?"
"Well, it does look very similar." Song Qiyun nodded and looked at the portrait again, "The more I look at it, the more similar it becomes. I should be able to confirm it."
"I can't talk nonsense, but..." Xue Ruitian raised an eyebrow, "Do you still remember why you killed them two?"
"Why else? Isn't it because their behavior attracted our attention? They were sneaking around the palace and the prince's palace, and even tried to sneak into the palace secretly, but were caught by our people. Originally, We didn't plan to kill them at first, we just arrested them as spies, but when we asked them, they didn't answer anything and refused to speak no matter how hard we beat them. Later..." Song Qiyun paused, "Well, I heard what the jailer said. , two people were whispering in the cell and talking small words, but they couldn’t understand what they were saying. Later, these two people tried to attack Xiaojiu and me during the interrogation, and they were killed by the two of us. ." He looked at Xue Ruitian, then at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, "This is probably the process. Originally we wanted to find out who they were, but they were looking for death and didn't want to live, so we could only help them. They are."
"These two people..." Shen Cha gently tapped the portrait in Song Qiyun's hand, "If it is confirmed that they are the two people you arrested, then their identities can be confirmed. They are the ones sent by Aunt Wanyanping to follow Wanyan Qingmu The Japanese who contacted us are inseparable from Wanyan and Wen’s deaths.”
"Can't! It's wrong!"
"What's wrong?"
"The time doesn't match up!" Song Qiyun shook his head gently, "General, Wanyan and Wen passed away in Wuma Town at the end of last year, right? Strictly speaking, these two people should have passed away at the end of the year before last and last year. At the beginning of the year, we arrested those who were arrested. After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, when the first trial started, they planned to attack, and we killed them." He spread his hands towards Shen Cha, "They have been dead for a year. , how could the deaths of Wanyan and Wencai have nothing to do with Wanyan and Wencai?"
"I'm sorry, Miss, I have something to explain." He looked at Song Qiyun, who was looking at him from the shopkeeper, "Your Majesty, I have something to explain..."
"Do you know me?" Song Qiyun raised his eyebrows, "Who are you?"
"I belong to Old General Xuanyuan." Shen Cha patted Song Qiyun on the shoulder and raised his chin towards the shopkeeper, "Tell me, what do you want to say?"
"Miss, it's like this. These two Japanese disappeared in Yiqing Prefecture a year and a half ago. The little people didn't find out where they went. They always disappeared without a trace. After a while They appear and disappear after a while. Therefore, it is possible that they will appear in Jiapingguan City."
"That's right!" Shen Cha thought for a while, then looked at Shen Haolin, "Who gave the medicine? The Japanese who replaced them?"
"This..." He shopkeeper shook his head, "The little people can't find out at all, except Garut, oh, no, even Garut doesn't know. When Aunt Wanyanping and the Japanese came to visit Wanyan Qingmu, Garut and the other guards and servants were sent away for various reasons, so the servants had no idea what they were talking about."
"Understood." Shen Cha nodded, "Garut, a man who always holds his brother in the palm of his hand and puts his brother's interests first, is actually worried that Wan Yanping's aunt is alone with the Japanese. Meet Wanyan Qingmu? Hasn't he ever doubted what Wanyan Qingmu was trying to do by always getting them away?" She raised her eyebrows slightly, "Although he is not from the Wanyan family, because of his childhood experience, his His suspicions are no less than those of the Wanyan family, can he bear not to question me?"
"Miss Yingming, he did go and question Wanyan Qingmu directly."
"The results of it?"
"Wanyan Qingmu just coaxed him and said that there were some things that he couldn't let him know for his own good, so as not to be implicated."
"Did Garut believe it?"
"I believe it." Shopkeeper He sighed helplessly, "As long as Wanyan Qingmu says it himself, he will believe it."
"Sister!" Song Qiyun gently tugged on Shen Cha, "What's going on? Why am I getting more and more confused the more I listen?"
Xue Ruitian pulled Song Qiyun aside, said briefly, and raised an eyebrow at him, "It would have been better if those people hadn't killed them, right? If we could pry open their mouths, we would know this What did those two bastards do here, right?”
"If they were willing to speak, they wouldn't have to bother so much, right?" Song Qiyun glanced at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, who were looking at them, "After hearing what you said today, I suddenly understood why they intended to attack in the first place. Me and Xiaojiu.”
"If you want to die, the secrets they hide will not be exposed at all."
